"President Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed that he had "nothing to do with" Jeffrey Epstein. But his name reportedly appears in the unredacted files at least a million times, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Maryland) said on Tuesday after being granted access to the documents. Raskin told Axios that he searched Trump's name in the files on Monday, and it came up "more than a million times.""
"This is a clear contradiction to what Trump has claimed about his involvement with the child sex trafficker. Raskin has also told the press that he has found direct evidence undermining Trump's claim that he barred Epstein from staying at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida. Trump has maintained that he banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago when he was continually poaching staff from the spa, including 16-year-old Virginia Giuffre, and exposing himself to employees."
A search of the unredacted files shows Donald Trump's name appears more than a million times. The files contain a 2009 email exchange between Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell in which Epstein recounts his lawyer speaking with Trump and reports that Trump said Epstein was not a Mar-a-Lago member, was a guest, and was not asked to leave. The documents contradict assertions that Trump had "nothing to do with" Epstein and undermine claims that Trump barred Epstein from Mar-a-Lago after alleged staff poaching and exposure incidents involving Virginia Giuffre. Earlier redacted files recorded about 38,000 mentions.
