Overview

• The House Oversight Committee says the 2003 album includes an obscene, typed birthday message attributed to Donald Trump that mirrors the Wall Street Journal’s earlier publication.
• Democrats say the album was obtained through a legal demand to the executors of Jeffrey Epstein’s estate as part of a broader records request.
• The White House maintains the signature in the album is not Donald Trump’s, reiterating its challenge to the letter’s authenticity.
• Trump previously denied any connection to the document and filed a $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal and Rupert Murdoch after the paper published it.
• Democrats argue the album’s presence in official estate records bolsters oversight efforts and increases pressure for additional Epstein-related disclosures.
