🔗 Share this article White House Condemns 'Democratic Hoax' as Additional Jeffrey Epstein Photos Made Public Democratic lawmakers have made public a additional set of what they termed "alarming" photographs from the estate of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, depicting notably Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and former British royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. The first release of 19 images—a portion of which have been previously circulated—plus another 70 unveiled later on Friday represent a small number of the approximately 100,000 images provided to the House oversight committee, which is probing the actions and ties of Epstein. The shamed investor died by an apparent self-inflicted death in a New York detention cell in 2019 after being charged with sex-trafficking crimes. Notable Figures in the Images Featured among the high-profile individuals shown in the initial batch are celebrities such as movie maker Woody Allen; Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates; and Richard Branson, founder of the Virgin empire. Donald Trump is pictured in three of the first nineteen images. In one, he is pictured with six women, whose faces are blacked out. White House Reaction The White House responded to the release in a official comment, accusing Democrats of selectively "choosing" the images for electoral motives and to "seek to establish a false account." "That partisan falsehood against President Trump has been time and again refuted," an administration official remarked, asserting that "the current government has accomplished more for Epstein's victims than Democrats ever have by repeatedly calling for openness, disclosing thousands of pages of documents, and demanding more inquiries into Epstein's liberal connections." Panel Member Statement The photos were published devoid of explanation, but per a Democratic representative from California and senior member of the investigative panel, they elicit additional doubts about Epstein's links with wealthy individuals. "It is time to stop this White House obfuscation and bring justice to the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his influential associates," he said in a comment. The disclosure of these documents coincides with the House panel continuing its inquiry into the affair.
