Democrats on a House congressional oversight panel released more than a dozen newly obtained images from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein on Friday, including several photographs that feature President Donald Trump.
According to the House Oversight Committee Democrats, Trump appears in three of the 19 images made public so far. Committee members said they are currently reviewing more than 95,000 photos provided by Epstein’s estate.
One black-and-white image shows Trump smiling while standing between several women whose faces have been redacted. Another photo depicts Trump standing next to Epstein. A third, lower-quality image shows Trump seated beside a woman with her face obscured, his red tie loosened. The dates and locations of the photos were not disclosed.
The broader image release also includes appearances by former President Bill Clinton, former Trump adviser Steve Bannon, Bill Gates, and former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers. Other items shown include explicit objects and a novelty item labeled a $4.50 “Trump condom” featuring Trump’s image and the phrase “I’M HUUUGE!”
A spokesperson for the oversight committee, chaired by Republican James Comer of Kentucky, accused Democrats of politicizing the investigation. The spokesperson said the release involved selective photo choices and targeted redactions designed to create a misleading narrative about President Trump.
Democratic members said the archive contains images of wealthy and influential men associated with Epstein, along with photos of women and Epstein-owned properties. They added that additional materials will be released in the coming days.
“These disturbing images raise serious questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful individuals in the world,” said Representative Robert Garcia of California, the committee’s top Democrat. He urged the Department of Justice to release all remaining Epstein-related files without delay.
Democrats said the women’s faces were blurred to protect the identities of Epstein’s victims.
The document release comes as the U.S. Department of Justice is expected to make public a set of unclassified Epstein investigation files late next week. Last month, President Trump signed into law a bipartisan bill sponsored by Representative Ro Khanna and Representative Thomas Massie, requiring the Justice Department to release the files within 30 days. That deadline expires on December 19.
The White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Trump and Epstein socialized during the 1990s and early 2000s, though Trump has stated that he severed ties before Epstein pleaded guilty to prostitution-related charges. Trump has repeatedly denied any knowledge of Epstein’s abuse or sex trafficking of underage girls.
