‘Hours at My House’: Newly Revealed Emails Show Jeffrey Epstein Discussing His Relationship With Donald Trump

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a new batch of emails from the Jeffrey Epstein estate that showed the convicted sex offender discussing President Donald Trump, and alleged he spent time at Epstein’s home with a victim of sex trafficking.

The emails revealed that in private communication with Ghislaine Maxwell obtained through Epstein’s estate, Epstein wrote in 2011 that Trump, “spent hours at my house” with the victim, adding that the president was a “dog that hasn’t barked.”

In another email with author Michael Wolff in 2019, Epstein said Trump “knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop.”

Another email with Wolff in 2015, Epstein and Wolff write about whether they can “craft an answer” for Trump’s upcoming CNN interview, with Wolff characterizing Epstein’s leverage over Trump, saying, “If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency.”

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

It’s the latest chapter in a growing effort to shed light on the relationship between Trump and Epstein. The Trump administration has downplayed and publicly distanced itself from releasing Epstein documents, a campaign promise Trump made on the 2024 campaign trail.

The tranche of emails comes amid the Oversight panel’s investigation of Epstein which yielded a suggestive 2003 birthday letter allegedly from Trump to Epstein that included a sketch of a naked woman.

The emails will almost certainly add fuel to a legislative push by Republican Rep. Thomas Massie to force the Department of Justice to release all files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Massie is expected to receive the final necessary signature later today on a petition to compel a vote on the matter, after Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva is sworn in.

“The more Donald Trump tries to cover up the Epstein files, the more we uncover. These latest emails and correspondence raise glaring questions about what else the White House is hiding and the nature of the relationship between Epstein and the President,” Rep. Robert Garcia, the top Democrat on the committee, said in a statement. “The Department of Justice must fully release the Epstein files to the public immediately. The Oversight Committee will continue pushing for answers and will not stop until we get justice for the victims.”

According to a statement from Democrats on the House Oversight committee, the Epstein estate released a total of 23,000 documents that the committee is currently reviewing.

Republicans on the committee are accusing Democrats of selectively releasing documents.

“Democrats continue to carelessly cherry-pick documents to generate click-bait that is not grounded in the facts,” a committee spokesperson said in a statement. “The Epstein Estate has produced over 20,000 pages of documents on Thursday, yet Democrats are once again intentionally withholding records that name Democrat officials. The Committee is actively reviewing the documents and will release them publicly once all victim-identifying information has been appropriately redacted. Democrats should stop politicizing this investigation and focus on delivering transparency, accountability, and justice for the survivors.”
