Overview
- Melania Trump’s lawyer Alejandro Brito sent a letter dated Aug. 6 demanding a retraction of Biden’s claim that Epstein introduced her to Donald Trump.
- The letter, first reported by Fox News Digital, calls the remark—made during Hunter Biden’s Andrew Callaghan interview and credited to Michael Wolff—false, defamatory and extremely obscene.
- It asserts that the allegation caused significant financial and reputational harm to the first lady.
- The letter warns of legal action if a public retraction is not issued.
- As of Aug. 14, neither Hunter Biden nor his counsel Abbe Lowell have publicly addressed the demand.
