Democrats Release Extensive Epstein Estate Photos Including Trump and Other Notables
On 12 December 2025, Democrats released a new tranche of photos from Jeffrey Epstein's estate as part of a broader disclosure involving nearly 100,000 images provided to the House Oversight Committee. The initial drop included 19 photos, with 70 more released later the same day. The collection features notable figures such as Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Woody Allen, Bill Gates, and Richard Branson. Epstein, who died in 2019 by apparent suicide in a New York jail while facing sex-trafficking charges, has been the focus of ongoing investigations into his conduct and connections.
Donald Trump appears in three of the 19 images, including one photo showing him with six women whose faces are obscured. The images were released without captions, prompting various reactions. The White House condemned the release, calling it a Democrat hoax and accusing the opposition of cherry-picking photos to push a political narrative. White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson stated that the administration has been transparent and has supported investigations into Epstein's associates.
California Democrat Robert Garcia, ranking member of the Oversight Committee, said the photographs raise important questions about Epstein's connections and urged justice for survivors.
