A recent report indicates President Donald Trump was informed in May about his inclusion in the Epstein files, conflicting with his earlier statements denying communication with DOJ officials regarding the matter. Reports state that Trump had met with Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche to discuss information surrounding Jeffrey Epstein. Despite scrutiny surrounding Trump's past friendship with Epstein, the mention of his name in the files does not imply criminal activity. The findings have sparked public outcry regarding transparency within the administration on the Epstein investigation.
A new report suggests that President Donald Trump was aware in May that his name was included in the Epstein files, contradicting his claims this month.
The Wall Street Journal, citing multiple sources with knowledge of Trump's conversations with Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, reported that they met with Trump in spring.
Trump had a well-documented friendship with Epstein from the 1980s to the early 2000s, and his name being mentioned in the files doesn't necessarily indicate wrongdoing.
The Wall Street Journal report comes amid public outcry over the administration's lack of transparency on the Epstein case, including among members of Trump's MAGA base.
