Democrats in Washington have published a birthday message that Donald Trump allegedly sent Jeffrey Epstein more than 20 years ago, as the US president faces renewed pressure over his links to the late disgraced financier and convicted sex offender.
The release of the note on Monday comes as Trump has struggled to quash a furore over his past relationship with Epstein, which has engulfed his administration in recent months.
“HERE IT IS: We got Trump’s birthday note to Jeffrey Epstein that the President said doesn’t exist,” Democrats on the House oversight committee wrote as they posted an image of what they claimed was Trump’s message on X.
