US EditionChris Hayes Says Trump Has Been ‘Caught Red-Handed’ Over Epstein Birthday Book
The House Committee released Epstein's 2003 birthday book containing a $22,500 check from Trump and drawings linked to sex trafficking allegations, intensifying ongoing investigations.
- In September 2025, a congressional panel obtained and made public a 50th birthday album from 2003 linked to Jeffrey Epstein, which included a sketch attributed to Donald Trump.
- The release followed a July 17, 2025 Wall Street Journal report on the album, after which Trump sued the newspaper on July 18 for $10 billion, denying authorship of the letter and drawing.
- The letter in the book reads 'TO JEFF' and features a signature close to known examples, while social media posts debated the drawing's subject, including a video gaining over 122,800 likes.
- Trump told the Wall Street Journal, "I never wrote a picture in my life," and his legal team vowed to continue aggressive litigation despite mixed responses on his denials.
- The controversy has intensified scrutiny of Trump's ties to Epstein, coinciding with ongoing political battles over congressional redistricting and public debates on related social media topics.
