House Democrats Accuse Donald Trump of Epstein Sex Scheme Participation

House Judiciary Committee Democrats released a report on Monday alleging that Donald Trump was an active participant in the criminal sex schemes of Jeffrey Epstein. The report cites testimony from 11 women, including five who accuse the president of rape or sexual assault at locations including Mar-a-Lago, the Plaza Hotel, and Trump Tower.

Democrats further allege that the Department of Justice, under Attorney General Todd Blanche, obstructed investigations and withheld records to protect the president. Ranking member Jamie Raskin called for an independent special counsel to investigate both Epstein's co-conspirators and the alleged DOJ cover-up to ensure survivors are heard and justice is pursued.

White House spokesperson Lauren Bis denied all allegations, characterizing the report as a political distraction from Republican momentum. The release comes eight days before midterm elections, following a Democratic campaign strategy that spent approximately $36 million on Epstein-related advertising targeting GOP candidates and donors.
