Trump Considers Legal Action Over Epstein Files
President Donald Trump has hinted at possible legal measures against the estates of authors Michael Wolff and Jeffrey Epstein, claiming that a recent release of Epstein files indicates wrongdoing on his part.
While aboard Air Force One heading to Palm Beach, Florida, Trump addressed reporters regarding over 3 million documents and personal emails related to Epstein that were made public by the Justice Department last Friday.
“This guy, Wolff, is a writer who supposedly worked with Epstein to damage me,” Trump commented. “I haven’t seen it personally, but I’ve been informed by some, well, very significant individuals that this not only clears my name, but it flips the narrative completely, you know, what the radical left was anticipating. Wolff, a rather mediocre writer, was in cahoots with Epstein to hurt me politically and otherwise, and that was very clear.”
“I’m likely to pursue a lawsuit against Wolff and the Epstein Foundation for their collusion,” Trump added, reiterating, “he’s not my friend.”
Epstein’s emails, released by the Justice Department, reportedly state that there was no evidence of criminal or improper behavior by Trump.
In a March 2016 email between Epstein and Wolff that Fox News Digital obtained, Wolff encouraged Epstein to think about a “swift rebuttal” to James Patterson’s book concerning him, titled “Filthy Rich: A Powerful Billionaire, the Sex Scandal That Broke Him, and All the Justice Money Can Buy.”
Wolff remarked, “An immediate rebuttal of this book is crucial. I think Mr. Trump offers the perfect opportunity: a chance to craft a narrative different from your own while also having the ability to shape your own story.”
He further stated, “Being anti-Trump provides you with a certain political safeguard that you clearly don’t have at the moment.”
In previous emails from February 2016, Wolff indicated to Epstein that he could serve as the “bullet” capable of derailing Trump’s 2016 presidential bid.
On the latest release of Epstein documents, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche informed Fox News Digital that “despite his attempts to undermine President Trump, at no point did Epstein insinuate that President Trump engaged in any criminal activity or had inappropriate contact with any of his victims.”
Blanche mentioned that the Justice Department intends to publish more than 3 million pages of records shortly.
