US lawmakers release Epstein 'birthday book' with alleged Trump note

A US congressional committee has released a "birthday book" allegedly linked to Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender. The book reportedly contains a handwritten note and a crude drawing attributed to former US President Donald Trump. The White House has denied that Trump authored the note or drawing, stating that the president did not create them. The book's release is part of an ongoing investigation into Epstein's connections with influential individuals. Epstein was arrested in 2019 on federal charges of sex trafficking of minors and died in custody shortly after. The case has sparked widespread scrutiny of Epstein's powerful associates and their potential involvement in his criminal activities. The release of this "birthday book" adds another layer to the complex and controversial Epstein saga, raising questions about the extent of his ties to high-profile figures. However, the White House's denial of Trump's involvement suggests the need for further investigation to uncover the truth behind these allegations.
