The note, apparently from Joel Pashcow, refers to Epstein’s skills with “money + women.” The White House denies the authenticity of Trump’s alleged signature and any involvement in the matter.

Trump says it’s not his signature. But Personal Letters Look Similar.
The issue at hand is pretty straightforward, isn’t it? We’re talking about a note, a letter, a doodle – call it what you will – that looks remarkably like something Donald Trump might have created. And yet, the man himself insists it’s not his work. This claim, of course, has ignited a flurry of reactions, with many people seeing right through it. The crux of the matter lies in the appearance of the signature, a detail that has become central to the debate.
Let’s delve into the signature itself. It’s been pointed out that Trump has a specific way of signing his first name, particularly in casual settings.… Continue reading

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee shared a purported birthday message from Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, retrieved from Epstein’s estate as part of a subpoena. The message, which included a hand-drawn image and a typed conversation, was immediately disputed by Trump, who denied authorship and that the signature was his. The authenticity of the note is further complicated by previous examples of Trump’s signatures, as well as a denial from White House officials. The Committee also received Epstein’s will, nonprosecution agreement and other records.

The Wall Street Journal published a photo of a birthday note Donald Trump wrote to Jeffrey Epstein, contradicting Trump’s assertion that it did not exist and the story was fabricated. The note, which was part of a collection celebrating Epstein’s 50th birthday, features a crude drawing of a naked woman and was signed by Trump. The president had previously denied writing the note and sued the Journal for its reporting on the matter, while Vice President J.D. Vance also questioned the story. Following the Journal’s story, sources close to Trump indicated his team attempted to stop the report’s release, but the story has still seen the light of day.

Johnson’s office stated that Donald Trump was the only individual, over a decade ago, willing to assist prosecutors in exposing Jeffrey Epstein, a claim echoed by the victims’ attorney. However, this statement was quickly contrasted with Johnson’s subsequent claim that Trump was an FBI informant. The implication that Trump acted as an informant in the 1990s while associating with Epstein appears highly improbable. This incident highlights the prevalence of deceit within the current administration.
