"The Justice Department released a new batch of files Tuesday related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein which contain hundreds of references to President Trump. Trump has not been accused of wrongdoing in connection to Epstein though he had a well-documented friendship with the disgraced financier in the 1980s, '90s, and 2000s. This latest tranche gives more details on Trump's relationship with Epstein, including documentation of Trump flying on Epstein's private jet in the 1990s."
"The latest set of files includes a 2020 email from an unidentified federal prosecutor saying that "Donald Trump traveled on Epstein's private jet many more times than previously has been reported (or that we were aware)." The prosecutor said Trump was listed as a passenger on at least eight flights between 1993 and 1996, including four on which Ghislaine Maxwell Epstein's co-conspirator and herself a convicted sex offender was also a passenger."
The Justice Department released nearly 30,000 pages of files tied to Jeffrey Epstein that contain hundreds of references to President Trump. The files include documentation showing Trump listed as a passenger on at least eight flights on Epstein's private jet between 1993 and 1996, with four flights also listing Ghislaine Maxwell. Flight logs indicate primarily domestic travel between New Jersey, Palm Beach, and Washington, D.C. A 2020 email from an unidentified federal prosecutor said Trump traveled on Epstein's jet more than previously reported. The DOJ noted the release contains some untrue or sensationalist claims. Congress required full disclosure; releases continue piecemeal.
