US EditionJustice Department restores photo containing image of Trump to Epstein files website
The Justice Department restored the Trump photo after confirming no Epstein victims appear in it, amid a release of over 3,500 files related to Epstein's case.
- Following a review, the U.S. Department of Justice restored a photograph to its online Epstein files website after it was temporarily removed Saturday, with no evidence victims are depicted.
- Out of an abundance of caution DOJ temporarily removed the photo to assess needed redactions after it disappeared Saturday following its Friday release.
- A desk-drawer photograph published in the files shows framed and unframed photos including Trump and Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell, with one photo showing Trump with a group of women and another with Melania Trump, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
- Democrats on the House Oversight Committee flagged the missing image and pressed for answers, while Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said `It has nothing to do with President Trump` and explained the photo was removed due to victims' rights concerns.
- The law required release by Friday, yet DOJ said it will continue publishing records on a rolling basis despite omitting FBI interviews and internal Justice Department memos, while Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche noted prosecutors possess more than 3.6 million related records.

Todd Blanche, Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer and now a top Justice Department official, went on Meet the Press this weekend with the apparent mission of explaining why a photo of Trump linked to Jeffrey Epstein briefly disappeared from newly released DOJ files — and then reappeared. Instead of calming things down, Blanche managed to pour gasoline on a controvers…
