White House Denounces 'Democrat Fabrication' as More Epstein Estate Images Disclosed

Democratic lawmakers have released a additional set of what they labeled "alarming" pictures from the estate of adjudicated sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, depicting among others Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and former British royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

The first release of 19 images—a portion of which have been seen before—combined with another 70 unveiled later on Friday account for a minuscule portion of the nearly 100,000 images released to the House oversight committee, which is examining the actions and ties of Epstein.

The fallen money manager died by an apparent self-inflicted death in a New York jail cell in 2019 after being accused of sex-trafficking crimes.

High-Profile Individuals in the Photos

Included in the prominent personalities shown in the initial batch are well-known figures featuring movie maker Woody Allen; Microsoft founder Bill Gates; and Richard Branson, creator of the Virgin conglomerate.

Donald Trump is pictured in three of the initial 19 images. In one, he is photographed with six women, whose faces are redacted.

White House Statement

The White House reacted to the release in a official comment, alleging Democrats of purposefully "choosing" the pictures for political purposes and to "seek to establish a false account."

"This Democratic fabrication against President Trump has been consistently disproven," an administration official said, maintaining that "the Trump administration has accomplished more for Epstein's victims than Democrats have ever done by consistently demanding disclosure, disclosing reams of records, and urging further investigations into Epstein's Democratic associates."

Democratic Lawmaker Remarks

The photographs were released devoid of explanation, but according to a Democratic representative from California and ranking member of the oversight committee, they prompt further inquiries about Epstein's links with affluent people.

"It is time to stop this White House obfuscation and bring justice to the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and his influential associates," he said in a release.

The disclosure of these images comes as the House panel continuing its probe into the affair.
