A batch of newly leaked emails reveals that Jeffrey Epstein once threatened to publicly expose Donald Trump, according to documents released this week. The messages are part of a larger 20,000-page release handed over by U.S. lawmakers seeking full transparency regarding Epstein’s network and connections.
While the emails represent only a fraction of the material believed to exist, they have already sent shockwaves through Washington. In several exchanges, Epstein implied he possessed “private photos” of Trump, suggesting they could be damaging if made public.
Trump and Epstein moved in the same social circles in the 1990s and early 2000s, and flight logs show Trump flew on Epstein’s jet several times, which his team calls routine travel. Newly released emails mention “private photos” Epstein claimed to have of Trump and vague references to women in Epstein’s network, though none are verified. The leak has intensified bipartisan calls for full transparency and further release of Epstein-related records.
