Trump Denies Allegations of Birthday Letter to Epstein
President Donald Trump has refuted a report from the Wall Street Journal claiming he sent a somewhat cryptic birthday letter to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. A letter dated 2003, which purportedly features Trump’s name, included illustrations believed to be inappropriate, according to the report.
Details emerged from the WSJ about the letter, describing it as having typewritten text surrounded by a crude drawing of a naked woman. The illustration, as reported, included two arcs suggesting breasts, with Trump’s signature positioned beneath what appeared to be a depiction of pubic hair. It was said to conclude with a line wishing Epstein a “happy birthday” accompanied by a phrase about secrets.
The WSJ did not confirm the authenticity of the letter nor did they provide the original document.
Both Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance strongly dismissed the report, with threats of a potential lawsuit against the publication.
Trump commented, “This is not me. This is fake. It is a fake Wall Street Journal story. I have never drawn a picture in my life. I don’t depict women. That’s not something I do.” He further expressed his intention to sue, questioning the newspaper’s integrity.
Vance added, “I have to apologize for my language, but this story is total and completely nonsense. The WSJ should be ashamed for publishing it. Where’s the letter? It’s shocking that we won’t see it before it’s published.”
As mentioned by Breitbart News, during the Trump administration, the DOJ and FBI released a memo indicating there was no evidence supporting the existence of an Epstein client list. Trump defended Attorney General Pam Bondy’s management of the case against the backdrop of criticism from some conservatives.
He stated, “She gave us a very straightforward briefing. I believe these files were fabricated by Comey, pertaining to various things they observed. They were fabricated by Obama and Biden… We’ve seen it over the years with all the Russian hoaxes.”
