Trump asks Justice Department to probe Epstein ties with Bill Clinton, other Democrats

  • On Friday, President Donald Trump asked Attorney General Pam Bondi, the U.S. Department of Justice and the FBI to investigate Jeffrey Epstein's ties to former President Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman and JPMorgan/Chase.
  • This past week, the House Oversight Committee released emails from Epstein's estate, prompting renewed scrutiny after President Donald Trump's name appeared in emails released on Nov. 12.
  • Records show past contacts including flight logs and emails; Trump flew on Epstein's private jet at least seven times in the 1990s, with emails alleging Trump 'knew about the girls' and 'spent hours' at Epstein's house with Virginia Giuffre.
  • The immediate institutional response was muted, with the Department of Justice not immediately responding and other people named by Trump unavailable for comment.
  • Trump framed the disclosures as the 'Epstein Hoax' amid a shutdown that ended Wednesday, while a Reuters/Ipsos poll found nine in 10 Republicans approve his overall performance but only four in 10 his Epstein handling.
