Jeffrey Epstein Photos Released: Images Show Trump, Clinton, Gates as House Democrats Demand DOJ Files

preCharge News BUSINESS — Nearly 100,000 photos obtained by House Democrats from the estate of notorious sex predator Jeffrey Epstein include images of President Donald Trump, former President Bill Clinton, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, film director Woody Allen, and former Trump White House advisor Steve Bannon and others in social settings.

Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, as they made 19 of those photos public, urged the Department of Justice to release investigative files it has related to Epstein ahead of the Dec. 19 deadline to do so to comply with a newly passed law.

One image among a batch of photos released Friday morning shows Trump standing in the middle of a row of six women, whose faces were covered over by the Democrats before release. Some of the women are wearing Hawaiian leis around their necks.

Trump is shown in another photo standing behind Epstein at what appears to be a social event. A third photo shows Trump sitting next to a woman, whose face is blacked out, on what appears to be a plane.

Trump’s Past Relationship With Epstein

Trump was a longtime friend of Epstein before the two men had a falling out sometime in the early 2000s. He has not been accused of any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein, and has denied knowledge of Epstein’s abuse of girls and women while they are friends.

White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson, in a statement to preCharge News, accused House Democrats of “selectively releasing cherry-picked photos with random redactions to try and create a false narrative.”

Clinton, Summers, Prince Andrew Also Appearing in Photos

Jackson called the Democrats’ focus on the president’s connection to Epstein a “hoax,” and argued that the Trump administration “has done more for Epstein’s victims than Democrats ever have” by releasing documents and calling for transparency.

Clinton is shown in one photo standing with Epstein, his now-convicted procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, and another man and woman. The photo has Clinton’s signature on it.

Other photos show former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor (Prince Andrew), and Epstein’s one-time lawyer Alan Dershowitz.

Democrats Push for Full File Release From DOJ

preCharge News is reaching out to the people identified in the photos, all of whom have denied wrongdoing. This story will be updated with their responses.

“This latest production contains over 95,000 photos, including images of the wealthy and powerful men who spent time with Jeffrey Epstein,” a statement from Democrats on the Oversight Committee said.

Review of Thousands of Files Underway

“Images also include thousands of photographs of women and Epstein properties,” the statement said. “Committee Democrats are reviewing the full set of photos and will continue to release photos to the public in the days and weeks ahead. Committee Democrats are committed to protecting the identities of the survivors.”

Republicans Condemn Document Release

Rep. Robert Garcia of California, the ranking Democrat on the committee, in a statement said, “It is time to end this White House cover-up and bring justice to the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and his powerful friends.”

“These disturbing photos raise even more questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful men in the world. We will not rest until the American people get the truth. The Department of Justice must release all the files, NOW.”

Republicans on the Oversight Committee, in their own statement, said, “Once again, Oversight Democrats are chasing headlines by releasing a handful of selectively censored and cherry-picked photos from the Epstein Estate.”

Epstein and Maxwell Background

“Democrats’ hoax against President Trump has been completely debunked. Nothing in the documents we’ve received shows any wrongdoing,” the Republicans said. “Ranking Member Robert Garcia and Oversight Democrats should be ashamed of this disgusting behavior of putting politics above justice for the survivors.”

Epstein died from a jailhouse suicide in August 2019, weeks after he was arrested on child sex trafficking charges filed by the DOJ during Trump’s first term in office.

Maxwell is serving a 20-year federal prison sentence.
