Trump's Dismissed Epstein Letter Lawsuit Is the Latest Example of His Failure To State Cognizable Claims
Source ↗ 👁 0 💬 0
On July 17, 2025, The Wall Street Journal reported that a 2003 album marking the 50th birthday of financier Jeffrey Epstein, who would later be implicated in state and federal sex offenses involving underage girls, included a letter from Donald Trump, a longtime friend. The very next day, Trump sued the Journal in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, saying "the supposed letter is a fake and the Defendants knew it when they chose to deliberately defame President Trump."
