Administration Condemns 'Democrat Hoax' as More Jeffrey Epstein Photos Disclosed

House Democrats have released a additional set of what they termed "disturbing" photographs from the estate of adjudicated sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, including among others Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and ex-UK prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

The initial drop of 19 images—a portion of which have been seen before—along with another 70 released later on Friday constitute a small number of the approximately 100,000 images handed over to the House oversight committee, which is probing the actions and ties of Epstein.

The shamed investor died by apparent suicide in a New York jail cell in 2019 after being indicted on sex-trafficking offenses.

High-Profile Individuals in the Photos

Included in the high-profile individuals seen in the initial batch are well-known figures including film director Woody Allen; Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates; and Richard Branson, originator of the Virgin empire.

Donald Trump is pictured in three of the initial 19 images. In one, he is seen with six women, whose faces are blacked out.

Administration Response

The White House reacted to the release in a official comment, alleging Democrats of purposefully "cherry-picking" the images for electoral motives and to "attempt to fabricate a false storyline."

"The Democrat hoax against President Trump has been consistently disproven," an administration official said, asserting that "the Trump administration has achieved more for Epstein's victims than Democrats have at any point by consistently demanding disclosure, releasing numerous documents of documents, and urging further investigations into Epstein's liberal connections."

Congressional Democrat Comment

The images were disclosed without context, but per a Democratic representative from California and ranking member of the investigative panel, they elicit additional doubts about Epstein's associations with the rich and powerful.

"The moment has come to end this White House obfuscation and deliver justice to the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his powerful friends," he said in a release.

The release of these images comes as the House panel pressing on with its inquiry into the Epstein case.
