DOJ Drops 30,000 More Epstein Docs That Include Accusations Against Trump
The Justice Department released another 30,000 documents related to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein on Tuesday, including those they said contained âuntrue and sensationalistâ claims against President Donald Trump. The document drop comes after hundreds of thousands of documents were released on Friday that included photos of former President Bill Clinton with Epstein. The latest document drop included claims about Trump and Epstein submitted to the FBI before the 2020 election, the Justice Department said. âThe Department of Justice has officially released nearly 30,000 more pages of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. Some of these documents contain untrue and sensationalist claims made against President Trump that were submitted to the FBI right before the 2020 election,â the Justice Department said Tuesday. âTo be clear: the claims are unfounded and false, and if they had a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponized against President Trump already.

On two other flights, two of the passengers, respectively, were women who would be possible witnesses in a Maxwell case.â Another document included allegations leveled against Trump by a Dallas limousine driver, who claimed that Trump made âvery concerningâ remarks in his limo in 1995.
