Newly released files have implicated Donald Trump's name once again in one of the darkest scandals of modern American life.
Emails from Jeffrey Epstein's estate, released by a congressional committee, do not allege any criminal activity by the president. But Democrats say they raise new questions about what he knew about the pedophile and when he knew it.
The key detail comes from two emails from Epstein, one sent to his girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, and another to author Michael Wolff.
In 2011, he wrote to Maxwell: "I want you to understand that the dog that didn't bark is Trump. (VICTIM) spent hours at my house with him… he was never mentioned. the police chief etc. I'm 75% there."
White House press secretary Caroline Leavitt said Democrats had removed the name because the victim in question was Virginia Guiffre, who never accused the president of wrongdoing.
In a 2019 exchange with Wolff, Epstein wrote: "Trump said he asked me to resign, never a member. Of course he knew about the girls after he asked Ghislaine to stop."
These words are unclear and we don't know the context in which they were written, but earlier this year, Trump said he had a falling out with Jeffrey Epstein after he harassed young women who worked at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, and this could be a reference to that dispute.
For years, Trump promised to declassify all files related to Epstein, a promise that positioned him as a truth-teller exposing elite corruption.
Now that others are publishing the material first, the image that helped bring him back to the White House is taking a hit. Instead of leading the charge, he is reacting to it, and among his base, there are many who remain convinced of a cover-up of the Epstein-related events./ SkyNews
