United States President Donald Trump accused Democrats on Wednesday (12/11/2025) of trying to “distract attention” from other issues by publishing offensive emails from deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
“Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein hoax again because they will do anything to distract from how bad they did regarding the government shutdown and many other issues,” he said on his platform, Truth Social. In reference to the 40-day budget paralysis in the United States.
Democratic members of Congress released emails on Wednesday in which Epstein suggests Trump was aware of his behavior and claims the sitting president knew “about the girls.”
The Epstein case does not lose its strength even though it is officially closed
Trump has denied any involvement or knowledge of the sex trafficking activities of his former friend, who committed suicide in federal prison in 2019 while awaiting trial.
Democrats on the House Oversight Committee said the emails “raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes.”
The uproar over the discredited financier continues to irritate the Trump administration four months after the Justice Department effectively closed the case, saying there was no more information to share.
