Epstein: "Trump Knew About the Girls"

Newly released emails confirm that Trump — and Ghislaine Maxwell — have been lying about Trump's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

Epstein: "Trump Knew About the Girls"

According to what serial liar/serial sex predator Donald Trump said in July 2025, he broke off his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein because Epstein stole underage girls from Trump's Mar-a-Lago employ. One of the girls Epstein stole was the now-deceased Virginia Giuffre.

Yesterday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told TIME that Virginia Giuffre was the "unnamed victim" referenced in a newly released 2011 email in which Epstein states that Trump, far from breaking off his friendship with Epstein over the "theft" of Giuffre, went on to spend many hours with the teenager inside Epstein's home.

Via email, April 2, 2011:

To: Ghislaine Maxwell

From: Jeffrey Epstein

Date: April 2, 2011

“I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is trump.. [Virginia] spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned. Police chief. etc. im 75 % there

Maxwell replied:

To: Jeffrey Epstein

From: Ghislaine Maxwell

Date: April 2, 2011

“I have been thinking about that…”

In another newly released email from 2019, Epstein tells journalist Michael Wolff that "of course (Trump) knew about the girls."

Via email, January 31, 2019:

To: Michael Wolff

From: Jeffrey Epstein

Date: January 31, 2019

“[Victim] mara lago. [redacted]. Trump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever. Of course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop”

The emails are bad news for Trump. And Ghislaine Maxwell.

The Trump described in these new emails is not the same man known perjurer Ghislaine Maxwell talked up to Todd Blanche in her friendly prison interview earlier this year.

In Maxwell's telling, Trump was a complete gentleman who only interacted with Epstein at parties, never in "any inappropriate setting." She said they weren't close friends and she never saw him at Epstein's house.

The emails prove that Maxwell was lying. After she herself lured the teenage Virginia Giuffre away from Mar-a-Lago to become Epstein's new masseuse, Giuffre spent hours with Trump at the Epstein house — and Epstein reminded Maxwell of that fact later, in case she missed it.

In 2011, Maxwell joins by-then-convicted sex offender Epstein in wondering why Trump had been "the dog that didn't bark" during or after the Florida investigation that led to Epstein pleading guilty to felony solicitation of prostitutes and procuring persons under 18.

Later, in 2019, Epstein confirms to Michael Wolff that Trump "knew about the girls" in more than a vague way.

Trump understood enough about Epstein's activities that even he — a self-proclaimed and unrepentant pussy-grabber with a history of harassing teenage pageant contestants — reached a point when he "asked Ghislaine to stop."

Epstein to the New York Times, December 8, 2015: “would you like photos of donald and girls in bikinis in my kitchen?”

In another shocking revelation, Epstein is revealed to have offered "photos of donald and girls in bikinis in my kitchen" in an email to The New York Times in 2015.

While there's no sign those photos were ever sent, the correspondence with journalist Landon Thomas, Jr. (who wrote the famous 2002 New York Magazine Epstein profile featuring memorable quotes from Trump), also includes a link Epstein sent to an article about Norwegian heiress Celina Midelfart, who Epstein refers to as "my 20-year-old girlfriend in 93, that after two years i gave to donald."

I wrote about Midelfart's connection to both Trump and Epstein in this February 2024 article "The Victim They Shared," which discussed how now-prominent Epstein victim Anouska De Georgiou was groomed and raped by Jeffrey Epstein before being "given" (to use Epstein's word) to Trump in 1997 by "Madam" Ghislaine Maxwell.

The Times's failure to properly cover Trump's connection to Epstein before the 2016 election — and again before the 2024 election — serves us another shameful example of how traditional media have failed us in the age of Trump.

218 signatures on the discharge petition. Now what?

On the same day as these and thousands of other Epstein emails were released, the House discharge petition to release all of the Epstein files secured the 218th and final signature needed to advance when, after much delay, Adelita Grijalva, an Arizona Democrat was finally sworn in. 

At the same time, Trump's cover-up team — including Attorney General Pam Bondi, Deputy AG Todd Blanche and FBI Director Kash Patel — was pressuring Colorado Republican Lauren Boebert to remove her signature and prevent the petition advancing. Boebert declined.

Even though the discharge petition finally advanced — and may trigger mass Republican defections when it hits the floor of the House next week — Trump's pedophile-protecting allies in the Senate could still prevent it from going any further.

And even if it does pass in the Senate, Trump the Trouser-Stained, who knew about Epstein's girls all along, would certainly veto the final release of the files.

Meanwhile, journalist Michael Wolff — whose emails with Epstein are part of the latest info dump — has raised more than $700,000 on GoFundMe. The crowdfunding effort is designed to build a war chest to fight a threatened $1 billion lawsuit against him for statements he has made about the Trumps — both Donald and Melania — and their relationships to Jeffrey Epstein.

In Donald's case, it was a relationship so close that, even when the most shocking crimes were happening right in front of him, he remained "the dog that didn't bark."
