Newly Released Emails Expose Close Ties Between Epstein and Trump
A cache of previously unreleased emails has shed new light on the close relationship between late financier Jeffrey Epstein and former President Donald Trump. The documents, released by the House Oversight Committee, reveal that Epstein's staff kept him informed about Trump's air travel schedule, with many instances indicating a level of familiarity and coordination between the two.
The emails show that Epstein's pilot, Larry Visoski, regularly updated his boss on Trump's flight plans, including arrival times at airports such as Palm Beach International. The exchange also reveals that Epstein was aware of Trump's movements even after their friendship soured, with one email from November 2016 referencing Trump's scheduled departure between 4-6 pm.
The documents also indicate that Epstein disparaged Trump on several occasions, with one email from December 2018 describing him as "borderline insane." The exchange also mentions Trump ally Roger Stone and former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, who had a conversation with Epstein about the president's mental state.
Other emails suggest that Epstein received updates on Trump's movements from friends and associates, including reports on controversies surrounding the president. One such report was on Roger Stone's arrest in January 2019, while another referenced Michael Cohen's discussions with prosecutors.
The release of these documents has reignited scrutiny of Trump's past ties to Epstein, with many calling for further transparency on the matter. Trump himself recently took to social media to deny any wrongdoing and claim that Democrats were trying to distract from his achievements.
In response, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that the emails had been selectively leaked by Democrats to create a "fake narrative" about Trump's involvement with Epstein. However, many have questioned the motives behind this move, particularly given the ongoing controversy surrounding Trump's handling of the Epstein case during his presidency.
As investigators continue to probe the Epstein scandal, these newly released emails serve as a reminder of the close relationship between two high-profile figures and highlight the need for greater transparency on this matter.
