Trump Notified His Name in Epstein Files

Donald Trump was notified by Attorney General Pam Bondi in May that his name appears multiple times in files related to Jeffrey Epstein, intensifying the political scandal surrounding their association. The White House initially dismissed these reports as 'fake news' but later confirmed Trump’s name was present among many high-profile individuals, while emphasizing that inclusion does not indicate guilt. New video footage has surfaced showing Jeffrey Epstein invoking his Fifth Amendment rights when questioned about socializing with Trump around underage females. The Justice Department under Trump's administration announced it would not release further Epstein files, prompting backlash and conspiracy theories among supporters who had expected transparency. Trump has responded by blaming Democrats and the media, but even conservative commentators and some of his supporters are expressing skepticism. The controversy continues to dominate political discourse, with media and legal analysts noting the administration’s inconsistent messaging.
