🔗 Share this article White House Condemns 'Democratic Fabrication' as Further Epstein Estate Images Released Democratic lawmakers have made public a fresh batch of what they described as "troubling" photographs from the estate of adjudicated sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, including notably Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and former British royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. The first release of 19 photographs—a portion of which have been seen before—along with another 70 unveiled later on Friday represent a small number of the almost 100,000 images released to the House oversight committee, which is examining the conduct and connections of Epstein. The fallen money manager was a victim of apparent suicide in a New York prison cell in 2019 after being charged with sex-trafficking offenses. High-Profile Individuals in the Images Featured among the notable figures visible in the first release are well-known figures including film director Woody Allen; Microsoft creator Bill Gates; and Richard Branson, originator of the Virgin empire. Donald Trump appears in three of the first nineteen images. In one, he is seen with six women, whose faces are redacted. White House Reaction The White House responded to the release in a official comment, accusing Democrats of selectively "choosing" the images for electoral motives and to "try and create a false account." "This Democratic fabrication against President Trump has been consistently disproven," a White House spokesperson stated, asserting that "this presidency has achieved more for Epstein's victims than Democrats have ever done by frequently urging transparency, disclosing thousands of pages of records, and demanding additional probes into Epstein's Democrat friends." Congressional Democrat Statement The images were disclosed devoid of explanation, but according to a California Democrat and senior member of the investigative panel, they prompt further inquiries about Epstein's connections to affluent people. "The moment has come to halt this White House cover-up and deliver justice to the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his influential associates," he said in a statement. The disclosure of these documents coincides with the oversight committee pressing on with its inquiry into the Epstein case.
