US EditionDOJ Says New Files Alleging Trump Abused Girl in 1990s 'Unfounded'
The Department of Justice released tens of thousands of Epstein-related documents including disputed claims about Trump, emphasizing many allegations are unsubstantiated, under the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
- On Tuesday, the U.S. Department of Justice released a new batch of Epstein documents mentioning President Donald Trump multiple times, adding the claims are "unfounded and false," the DOJ said.
- Because of the Act, signed on November 19, the DOJ was required to publish Epstein files by December 19, while protecting victim PII with legal safeguards.
- An internal DOJ email shows Trump flew with Epstein at least two times between 1993 and 1996, sharing flights with two 'possible witnesses'.
- Reporters and lawmakers criticized the DOJ post, with Kyle Cheney flagging inconsistencies while former Republican congressman Joe Walsh and Rep. Nellie Pou called the DOJ compromised and overly aligned with the White House.
- Amid recent months of reporting, including a New York Times piece last week, Trump has not been accused of criminal conduct and said he cut ties with Epstein decades ago.
