  • First Thing: Trump requests release of Epstein grand jury transcripts amid report of ‘bawdy’ birthday note

    Trump reportedly contributed sketch of naked woman to sex offender’s birthday album. Plus, Medicaid hands over Americans’ personal data to immigration authoritiesGood morning.Donald Trump said he has requested the release of grand jury testimony related to Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking case, as controversy grows over reports alleging he contributed a sketch of a naked woman to Epstein’s 50th birthday album.What has Trump said about the story? He has decried it as a hoax and vowed to sue the Journal.What was the relationship between the pair? They fell out over a Florida property bidding war in 2004 and Trump further distanced himself from Epstein following the financier’s conviction for child sex offences in 2008. But before that, they were friends for 15 years. Here is a detailed view of their relationship over the years.What issues has Sarcone’s appointment faced?

  • ‘He’s a lot of fun to be with’: Trump and Epstein were close friends for 15 years

    As Trump tries to claim he was ‘not a fan’ of Epstein, photos, videos and anecdotes paint a picture of a their relationshipIt was a friendship that spanned three different decades. To Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein was a “terrific guy”. Epstein believed himself to be Trump’s “closest friend”, and praised the future president as “charming”.The relationship would eventually break down, the men falling out over a bidding war on a property in Florida. And after Epstein was convicted of child sex offences in 2008, Trump distanced himself from the financier, claiming he was “not a fan” and wondering, in recent days, why his supporters would “waste time and energy” on demanding that FBI and Department of Justice files on Epstein be released.

  • Listen up, weaklings: there’s no Epstein client list. Why are you so obsessed? Yours, Donald J Trump | Marina Hyde

    It’s the bonfire of the Maga hats. The real mystery is where their wearers got the idea of a paedophile conspiracy from in the first placeYou have to feel for Donald Trump’s Maga base. The one huge secret they didn’t want disclosed was that he actually really hates them. All populists despise their people, obviously – but please, Mr President, respect the playbook! You’re supposed to do it quietly. Regrettably, no one could accuse Trump of hiding his spite under a bushel after a week in which he described those of his supporters who want him to simply do what he repeatedly promised, and release the so-called Epstein files, as “weaklings” and “stupid people”. This is quite the (public) volte face from the guy who originally swept to office declaring “I love the poorly educated”.Most of you are unlikely to need a recap at this stage, but Jeffrey Epstein is the sex-trafficking financier and socialite, who conveniently died in jail while awaiting trial, apparently by suicide. A woman, Ghislaine Maxwell, was convicted of conspiring with him to sexually abuse minors, and is currently serving 20 years in a low-security Florida prison. But no big-hitting or even small-hitting male associate in the US has so much as been arrested for participating in what I believe the dead paedophile would have encouraged us to call his “lifestyle”. This second Trump administration didn’t just sweep to power while repeatedly screaming about the “cover-up” of this story, but it spent a good portion of its early months assuring its ravenous base that Epstein’s supposed “client list” was on a desk waiting for release approval. Yet now, Trump and his associates say there is no list. Nope. Never even was a list. Where did these weakling idiots get that idea? To summarise his administration’s position: “We took a look at the deep state and it turns out to be very shallow. Seriously, I’m standing in it right now and it doesn’t even come up to my knees.”Marina Hyde is a Guardian columnistDo you have an opinion on the issues raised in this article?
