Newly released emails suggest that former US President Donald Trump was aware of Jeffrey Epstein's conduct, including allegations of child sex trafficking. One memo from Epstein to his co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell mentioned Trump by name, stating "I want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump.. [victim's name redacted] spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned." This email was sent in April 2011, and it suggests that Trump may have had knowledge of Epstein's activities.
In another memo, it was stated that Trump had "spent hours" with one of Epstein's victims. The emails were released as part of a move by Democrats on the House oversight committee to pressure the White House to fully release the so-called Epstein files.
Trump has denied any involvement in Epstein's activities, but the newly released emails have raised questions about his knowledge and potential involvement. The issue is likely to be a major point of contention in the ongoing debate over Trump's legacy and his role in the Epstein scandal.
In other news, Trump signed a funding bill to end the longest US government shutdown in history, which lasted 43 days. However, the issue of expiring tax credits for the Affordable Care Act remains unresolved.
The world is heading towards a catastrophic 2.6C temperature rise, according to two major reports, as governments have failed to commit to sufficiently strong climate action. Fossil fuel emissions have hit record levels, and experts warn that this will bring extreme weather events, agricultural collapse, and severe health problems.
In other news, tensions are rising between Thailand and Cambodia along their border after a ceasefire agreement broke down. A former top aide to the California governor, Gavin Newsom, has been indicted on corruption charges, while Bill Gates has speculated that he may have backtracked on climate change due to bullying from Trump.
