A letter allegedly signed by President Donald Trump and included in Jeffrey Epstein’s 50th birthday album resurfaced in a Wall Street Journal report Thursday. The revelation reignited scrutiny around Trump’s ties to Epstein. The “bawdy” letter features typewritten text framed by a hand-drawn outline of a naked woman, with “Donald” signed below her waist. Trump has denied writing or drawing the letter, calling it “a fake Wall Street Journal story” and threatening to sue, CNBC reported. It is unclear if the Justice Department reviewed this document in its recent Epstein probe. The Journal’s article came one day after the Justice Department fired Maurene Comey, a top Manhattan federal prosecutor involved in the Epstein and Maxwell cases. She is the daughter of James Comey, the former FBI director whom Trump fired in 2017.
