Donald Trump has seemingly addressed new reports that 'connect' him with Jeffrey Epstein in a furious post on Truth Social.
Earlier today (November 12), US House Democrats released new information that alleged Donald Trump knew about Epstein’s illegal conduct.
The disgraced and deceased Epstein is now known as a sex trafficking pedophile, despite the multi-millionaire being known to mingle with some of the world’s most wealthy and powerful people, including Trump.
The POTUS has repeatedly denied knowing any knowledge of Epstein’s behavior and denied any wrongdoing.

While the pair formerly appeared friendly, their relationship apparently soured in the early 2000s after the financier began poaching his staff, according to Trump.
Writing on Truth Social, Trump argued that any comments about himself and Epstein was a 'distraction' attempt by the Democrats.
He wrote: "The Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax again because they’ll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they’ve done on the Shutdown, and so many other subjects. Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap.
"The Democrats cost our Country $1.5 Trillion Dollars with their recent antics of viciously closing our Country, while at the same time putting many at risk — and they should pay a fair price.
"There should be no deflections to Epstein or anything else, and any Republicans involved should be focused only on opening up our Country, and fixing the massive damage caused by the Democrats!"
The new data that was shared earlier appears to show emails, dated between 2011 and 2019, between Epstein and others and contains mentions of Trump.
According to a report by the New York Post, in one email from April 2011, Epstein told his former partner and convicted accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell: "I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump," adding that an unnamed victim 'spent hours at my house with him, he has never once been mentioned'.
Maxwell responded: "I have been thinking about that."
Another email, between Epstein and author Michael Wolff, sent in January 2019, has the late sex offender claim that Trump 'knew about the girls'.
Epstein wrote: "[Victim name - redacted] mara lago. [redacted]. trump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever. . of course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop."
The e-mails were part of the latest documentation to be passed on to the Oversight Committee, along with files about Epstein's estate. They were requested as part of the Committee's investigation into Epstein and Maxwell.
The White House Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, issued a lengthy statement to UNILAD dismissing any notion of Trump's involvement in anything illegal.
The statement read: "The Democrats selectively leaked emails to the liberal media to create a fake narrative to smear President Trump.
"The ‘unnamed victim’ referenced in these emails is the late Virginia Giuffre, who repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever and 'couldn’t have been friendlier' to her in their limited interactions.
"The fact remains that President Trump kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of his club decades ago for being a creep to his female employees, including Giuffre.
"These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s historic accomplishments, and any American with common sense sees right through this hoax and clear distraction from the government opening back up again."
