Today, the House Oversight Committee released documents from Jeffrey Epstein's estate that include the "birthday book" to Epstein allegedly containing the racy doodle from Donald Trump, that he previously said was "fake" because he doesn't "draw pictures of women." This is the latest development in the failure of the Trump administration to release the Epstein Files and fulfill their promise of transparency to the American people.
In response, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:
"Did anyone believe Donald Trump when he said that he never gave Jeffrey Epstein a sexually explicit drawing as a birthday present? Is anyone surprised that the drawing is real? The question now is why Trump is embroiled in this disgusting cover up and what even worse things he's hiding. As convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell hangs out in a 'country club' detention facility thanks to Trump's protection, the American people are left without answers. It's time for Trump to stop protecting the rich and elite and stand up for the victims of Epstein's heinous crimes. Release the files."
Don't forget: The Epstein Files saga all started when Trump and MAGA world repeatedly campaigned on the release of the Epstein Files but then failed to do so after Trump's Department of Justice found Trump's name in the evidence. Then the Trump administration appeared to have traded favors with Epstein accomplice-in-chief Ghislaine Maxwell. Trump still refuses to rule out a pardon for her - and now Maxwell is conveniently claiming that Trump never did anything wrong. All along, Trump's White House has done nothing but try to cover up the truth - but unfortunately for Trump, voters can see right through him.
