White House Points to Epstein Accuser Who Reportedly Spent Time with Trump

The Jeffrey Epstein saga is stirring up headlines again—this time dragging President Donald Trump back into the spotlight. Freshly uncovered emails from Congress reveal the late sex offender name-dropping Trump in conversations with Ghislaine Maxwell.

Democrats on Capitol Hill dropped a batch of Epstein’s emails on Wednesday. One from 2019 to writer Michael Wolff stands out: “Of course he knew about the girls,” clearly pointing at Trump.

These messages span 2011 to 2019 and are part of the Oversight Committee’s probe into Epstein and Maxwell.

Back in 2011, Epstein emailed Maxwell: “I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump.” He went on to say an unnamed victim had “spent hours at my house with him, he has never once been mentioned.”

Maxwell’s reply was short: “I have been thinking about that.”

Who’s the Mystery Woman?

The victim’s name was kept under wraps at first, but the White House says it’s Virginia Giuffre—one of Epstein’s highest-profile accusers—who took her own life earlier this year in Australia.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt fired back in a statement:

“Democrats cherry-picked emails and fed them to left-leaning outlets to spin a bogus smear against President Trump. The ‘unnamed victim’ is the late Virginia Giuffre, who said over and over that Trump had zero involvement in any misconduct and was nothing but kind during their brief encounters.”

She added: “This is pure distraction from President Trump’s record-breaking wins, especially as the government gets back up and running. Anyone with half a brain sees it for the sham it is.”

“He Took People That Work for Me”

Epstein rubbed elbows with everyone from princes to presidents to tycoons. He died in a Manhattan jail cell in 2019—officially suicide—shortly after federal sex-trafficking charges landed.

Trump has long insisted he severed ties with Epstein years earlier.

“He took people that work for me, and I told him, ‘Don’t do it anymore.’ And he did it. I said, ‘Stay the hell out of here,’” Trump once told reporters.

Yet the emails hint Epstein still viewed Trump as politically handy.

In a 2015 note to Michael Wolff, Epstein wondered how Trump would handle questions about their past. Wolff wrote back: “If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you valuable political currency. You can hang him in a way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you.”

Epstein later claimed Trump “knew about the girls” and had told Maxwell “to stop.”

The leaks have Democrats pushing for more answers. Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.) said: “These emails raise serious red flags about what the White House might still be sitting on—and exactly how deep the Epstein-Trump connection ran.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson says the House will vote next week on releasing the full Epstein files, per CNN.

Maxwell, Epstein’s ex-partner, was convicted in 2021 of child sex trafficking and is serving 20 years behind bars.
