Congress has released a real Jeffrey Epstein file, now available to the public: https://docs.house.gov/meetings/JU/JU08/20250227/117951/HHRG-119-JU08-20250227-SD006-U6.pdf. Separately, tapes published by The Daily Beast capture Epstein detailing his decade-long friendship with Donald Trump and making claims about Trump’s private conduct.
Congress Releases Epstein File With Trump References
Congress made public a new document linked to Jeffrey Epstein this week. The file, posted on an official House website, contains investigative records and correspondence. The release comes as scrutiny increases over Epstein’s ties to powerful figures, including former President Donald Trump.
Epstein Tapes Detail Decade-Long Relationship With Trump
Newly surfaced recordings now shed more light on Epstein and Trump’s relationship. The tapes were made by author Michael Wolff in 2017 while researching his book, “Fire and Fury.” Epstein calls himself “Donald Trump’s closest friend.” He claims their relationship lasted ten years.
These details were published in The Daily Beast on the eve of the 2024 election.
Epstein Claims Trump Slept With Melania on His Jet
In the tapes, Epstein says Trump first slept with Melania Knauss (now Trump) aboard Epstein’s private jet. He calls the plane the “Lolita Express.” Epstein claims this took place before Melania and Trump married. There is no independent confirmation for this account.
The claim ties Trump and Melania directly to Epstein’s network of parties and elite gatherings.
Recordings Reveal Claims of Sex and Manipulation
Epstein describes Trump as a serial adulterer. He claims Trump pursued sex with the wives of close friends. According to Epstein, Trump had a pattern, he would invite friends into his office, talk about sex, and then use the information to seduce their wives. Epstein outlines how Trump would organize calls so wives could overhear their husbands talk.
Epstein describes a calculated scheme. He says this happened many times, with Trump using charm and manipulation.
Trump Camp Brands Tapes “False Smears” and Interference
The Trump campaign responded swiftly. It called the tapes “false smears” and “blatant election interference.” The campaign accused Wolff of lying for attention and serving political interests. Spokespersons called Wolff a “disgraced writer.”
The response did not address details of the allegations.
Author Wolff Publishes Hours of Epstein Interviews
Michael Wolff says he recorded more than 100 hours with Epstein between 2017 and 2019. Wolff collected stories, observations, and accusations. He used some for his book and released new clips as the 2024 campaign neared its end.
The full extent of the material is unknown. Wolff says he decided to release more after new claims surfaced against Trump.
Epstein Describes Parties, Proclivities, and Power
The tapes and files reveal Epstein and Trump socialized often in New York and Florida. Epstein calls Trump “charming,” an “extraordinary salesman,” but unable to show empathy. He describes Trump as “functionally illiterate” except for gossip columns.
Epstein claims he and Trump “prowled for women” in casinos and at private parties.
Trump and Epstein’s Public and Private Ties Explored
Records and public photos show Trump and Epstein together through the late 1990s and early 2000s. They attended Mar-a-Lago events and fashion shows. Trump’s contact details appeared repeatedly in Epstein’s address books and in flight logs for Epstein’s jets.
Both men cut ties in 2004, after a dispute over a Florida mansion.
Epstein Alleges Trump Targeted Friends’ Wives
Epstein gives detailed accounts of Trump seducing friends’ wives. He claims Trump would turn private conversations into sexual opportunity. Epstein says Trump thrived on betrayal, targeting those close to him for personal gain.
Again, these are Epstein’s claims, and have not been verified by other sources.
Tapes Include Unverified Claims of Affairs and Misconduct
Epstein claims Trump had extramarital affairs, including one with a politician while president. There is no proof for these allegations. Epstein also alleges Trump boasted about affairs with Black women, using offensive language.
These claims add to those already made by more than two dozen women against Trump, all of which he denies.
Epstein Offers Insights on Trump’s Character and Conduct
Epstein paints Trump as deeply self-interested and without a moral compass. He says Trump’s acts of kindness are accidents. The tapes describe Trump’s temper, yelling at staff, and obsession with his public image.
He notes Trump admires force and image over substance.
Notable Names Surface in Epstein’s Conversations
On tape, Epstein mentions numerous public figures: Bill Clinton, Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, James Mattis, Carl Icahn, and Tom Barrack. Some connections are clear, others are unverified or unsubstantiated name-dropping.
These mentions highlight the elite network around Trump and Epstein.
Trump Team Says Friendship Ended Years Ago
The Trump camp insists Trump ended ties with Epstein long ago. They claim Trump banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago after learning of Epstein’s sex crimes. Trump himself has denied being close to Epstein or visiting his island properties.
The White House and the Trump Organization have not commented on specific new tape claims.
Tapes Increase Scrutiny Before Election Day
The timing is critical. The tapes and document arrive days before a bitterly contested U.S. election. Questions over Trump’s past relationships, behavior, and moral judgment again take center stage.
Congress may use these records for further oversight. The full impact on the campaign is uncertain.
The Epstein file is real. The tapes are public. The claims are explosive. The facts are disputed, and the story is not over. As new details surface, the record will speak for itself.
