Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein
Digest more
President Trump is upset over a story on his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein reported by the Rupert Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal.
Trump is facing mounting pressure from his MAGA base to publicly release Justice Department files from the Epstein case.
On July 17, 2025, The Wall Street Journal published an exclusive report claiming U.S. President Donald Trump once sent a birthday card to since-deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein with a drawing of a nude woman. The card, according to the report, was risqué, and ended with Trump writing, "may every day be another wonderful secret."
The two socialized together frequently in New York City and Palm Beach from the late 1980s to the early 2000s. In 2002, Trump praised Epstein to a reporter as a “terrific guy” — and curiously added that he “likes beautiful women” on “the younger side.”
