Democrats demand transparency as newly released Epstein documents reveal provocative message allegedly tied to President Trump, sparking political firestorm.
WASHINGTON, D.C. | The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee has released a tranche of documents from the estate of the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, including the so-called “birthday book” that allegedly contains a racy message signed by President Donald Trump.
The controversial note, first reported by The Wall Street Journal, includes an outline of a woman’s body and the phrase, “We have certain things in common, Jeffrey.” Democrats on the Oversight Committee publicized the document Monday, calling it evidence of a potential cover-up.
“It’s time for the President to tell us the truth about what he knew and release all the Epstein files,” said Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), the top Democrat on the panel.
The Oversight Democrats’ official X account shared an image of the note, adding: “Trump talks about a ‘wonderful secret’ the two of them shared. What is he hiding? Release the files!”
