🔗 Share this article White House Condemns 'Democratic Hoax' as Further Jeffrey Epstein Photographs Released House Democrats have made public a new tranche of what they described as "disturbing" images from the property of adjudicated sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, featuring notably Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and ex-UK prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. The first release of 19 images—a portion of which have been seen before—plus another 70 issued later on Friday constitute a tiny fraction of the nearly 100,000 images handed over to the House investigative panel, which is looking into the actions and ties of Epstein. The fallen money manager was a victim of an apparent self-inflicted death in a New York prison cell in 2019 after being accused of sex-trafficking charges. Prominent Personalities in the Images Among the prominent personalities seen in the opening set are well-known figures such as movie maker Woody Allen; Microsoft founder Bill Gates; and Richard Branson, creator of the Virgin empire. Donald Trump is featured in three of the initial 19 images. In one, he is pictured with six women, whose faces are redacted. Administration Statement The White House responded to the release in a statement, accusing Democrats of purposefully "choosing" the pictures for political purposes and to "try and create a false storyline." "That partisan falsehood against President Trump has been consistently disproven," a White House spokesperson stated, insisting that "the current government has achieved more for Epstein's victims than Democrats have ever done by frequently urging openness, disclosing reams of papers, and urging additional probes into Epstein's Democratic associates." Democratic Lawmaker Remarks The images were published devoid of explanation, but as stated by a California Democrat and senior member of the investigative panel, they raise more questions about Epstein's associations with affluent people. "Now is the occasion to stop this White House cover-up and deliver justice to the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his well-connected allies," he declared in a statement. The publication of these images comes as the House panel proceeding with its probe into the affair.
