Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released emails suggesting that President Trump knew more about Jeffrey Epstein’s activities than he has acknowledged.
Nov. 12, 2025Updated 3:08 p.m. ET
The trove of emails released on Wednesday by lawmakers include numerous references to President Trump. Among them, House Democrats highlighted three emails between Mr. Epstein and his associates suggesting that Mr. Trump might have been more aware of Mr. Epstein’s conduct than he has publicly acknowledged.
House Republicans asserted that the emails revealed little information, and Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, called them a “clear distraction.”
Here’s what we know about what was happening at the time the emails were sent:
2011: Epstein emails Ghislaine Maxwell about a victim he claims Trump met at his house.

In spring 2011, Mr. Epstein was emerging from his legal troubles and trying to stave off further consequences. The tabloids had spotted him out and about, trying to return to his old social circles. Mr. Epstein was sensitive to what was being said about him, emailing with his employees about negative news coverage. Meanwhile, Mr. Trump, now a star on his reality television show, “The Apprentice,” was talking publicly about running for president.
On Wednesday, Republicans on the House Oversight Committee said on X that the victim the email exchanged referred to was Virginia Roberts Giuffre, who was 16 when she was recruited by Mr. Epstein’s longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell while she was working as a spa attendant at Mar-a-Lago in 2000.
When Mr. Epstein sent the email in April 2011, Ms. Giuffre had recently gone public for the first time about her experiences with Mr. Epstein, telling a British tabloid that he had abused her and trafficked her to other men and providing the outlet with a now famous photo of herself, Prince Andrew and Ms. Maxwell.

I think you should let him hang himself. If he says he hasn't been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency. You can hang him in a way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you, or, if it really looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt. Of course, it is possible that, when asked, he'll say Jeffrey is a great guy and has gotten a raw deal and is a victim of political correctness, which is to be outlawed in a Trump regime.
