President Donald Trump has ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to seek court approval to release grand jury testimony related to Jeffrey Epstein, following a Wall Street Journal report alleging Trump sent Epstein a sexually suggestive birthday letter in 2003. Trump denies authorship, calling the letter “fake” and threatening to sue the Journal, NewsCorp, and Rupert Murdoch. The Justice Department recently stated Epstein died by suicide and dismissed claims of a “client list.” Trump’s move comes amid mounting pressure from supporters demanding transparency. The letter, reportedly featuring a nude sketch and cryptic message, has reignited controversy over Trump’s past ties to Epstein and the administration’s handling of related files. (PC: Vanity Fair)
