Washington — Democrats on the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday released emails exchanged between Jeffrey Epstein and others about President Trump.
Among the documents is a 2011 message from Epstein to Ghislaine Maxwell that said Mr. Trump “spent hours at my house” with one of Epstein’s victims, whose name is redacted. In another email in 2019 to author Michael Wolff, Epstein wrote, “Of course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop.”
Maxwell was convicted of conspiring in Epstein’s sex trafficking ring and is serving a 20-year sentence. Wolff has written several books about Mr. Trump.
House Democrats said the emails were turned over by Epstein’s estate, which they said released more than 23,000 documents that lawmakers are now reviewing.
Mr. Trump has previously said he cut ties with Epstein years ago, and he has not been accused of wrongdoing.
