Trump Says Murdoch Can’t Prove Epstein Birthday Note Is Real

Trump Says Murdoch Can’t Prove Epstein Birthday Note Is Real

In a lawsuit against Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal, President Donald Trump is seeking $10 billion in damages over an article claiming he sent a vulgar birthday note to Jeffrey Epstein. Trump argues that the news outlet has failed to prove the authenticity of the alleged letter, and he should be allowed to proceed with the libel lawsuit. The article, published in 2019, reported that Trump had sent Epstein a "crass" birthday message, which Trump denies. Trump's legal team maintains that the Journal has not been able to substantiate the existence or contents of the note, and therefore, the lawsuit should be permitted to move forward. The case highlights the ongoing tensions between the president and the media, as well as the high-stakes legal battles surrounding allegations related to Epstein's network.
