Trump Birthday Note to Epstein Released by Congress

In September 2025, the House Oversight Committee made public a page from Jeffrey Epstein’s 2003 birthday book that included a note attributed to Donald Trump. The page shows dialogue between “Donald” and “Jeffrey” written inside the outline of a female torso. The exchange ends with Trump’s name and signature placed at the base of the drawing, positioned where pubic hair would appear.

The text refers to “enigmas never age” and closes with the line “may every day be another wonderful secret.” The unsettling imagery and wording cast new light on Trump’s past ties to Epstein, contradicting his repeated claim that such a note never existed. The note was delivered to Congress by Epstein’s estate following a subpoena and released by Democratic members of the committee.

Trump Denies and Deflects

Trump has long denied the existence of the note. In July, he sued the Wall Street Journal and its publisher after the paper reported on the document. He insisted it was fabricated and accused the media of smearing him. When Congress released the page in full, the White House press secretary again dismissed the evidence and claimed the president neither drew nor signed it.

The denial fits a pattern that has defined Trump’s public handling of Epstein. The two men were once photographed together in Palm Beach, and flight records show Trump traveled on Epstein’s jet. When Epstein was arrested in 2019, Trump insisted he had not spoken to him in over a decade. He offered shifting explanations for their falling out, at times blaming disputes over employees, while avoiding discussion of the deeper record of association.

Now, the note shows a president who once mocked secrecy with Epstein in print, then spent years attempting to bury the record. The contradictions between his lawsuits, his public denials, and the document in front of Congress speak volumes.

Public Reaction and Next Steps

The reaction to the release has been swift. Social media users described the image as grotesque, noting that the body drawn on the page looks juvenile rather than adult. Commenters highlighted the phrase “enigmas never age” and debated whether it was a word game referencing young girls. Many also pointed to the disturbing placement of Trump’s bold signature within the figure’s outline.

Democratic lawmakers have called for the full release of Epstein files, arguing that transparency is necessary to establish accountability. Advocates demand that the birthday book be published in its entirety, without selective redactions that would shield powerful figures. Public outrage has only intensified the calls for answers, especially given the decades of secrecy that surrounded Epstein’s network.

The page confirms that Trump misled the public when he denied its existence. It also highlights the urgent need for all Epstein-related records to be brought into the open. The longer the files remain sealed, the more trust erodes in a system that appears willing to protect the powerful while silencing victims.
