The bipartisan Home Committee on Oversight and Authorities Reform this week launched 238 pages from a e-book of drawings and notes gifted to convicted serial intercourse offender Jeffrey Epstein by his former girlfriend and confederate, Ghislaine Maxwell, for his fiftieth birthday. Bearing the signatures of Donald Trump, financier and present Museum of Trendy Artwork trustee Leon Black, and Wexner Middle for the Arts’s namesake Leslie Wexner, amongst others, the trove of usually crude and cryptic missives paints a disturbing image of Epstein’s social circle as america authorities makes an attempt to deflect public stress to launch the so-called Epstein recordsdata.
The suggestive be aware that Trump has denied creating or signing.
The White Home referred Hyperallergic to an announcement from Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt denying Trump’s authorship of the message. The administration has vehemently rejected that Trump drew the nude girl within the be aware, which seems to be printed, and claimed that the president had not signed it, although reporters have drawn parallels between the drawing’s signature and the president’s identified autograph. Trump sued the Wall Road Journal for $10 billion over their preliminary report.
An unsigned drawing depicts Epstein flying between his non-public island, Palm Seaside, New Mexico, and New York.
The suggestive letter is one in all scores of notes and drawings attributed to Epstein’s associates, relations, associates, girlfriends, and assistants, included within the e-book. Many within the disgraced former financier’s circle opted to reference Epstein’s proclivity for breasts, younger ladies, and secrecy in a collection of novice collages and sketches, offering a visible illustration of how these near Epstein perceived him.
Probably the most overt allusions to Epstein’s felony habits within the e-book is a drawing that depicts Epstein handing lollipops to younger women and later receiving apparently sexual massages. The picture is unsigned.

Among the many contributors listed as “friends” within the birthday e-book’s desk of contents had been Trump, former President Invoice Clinton, Leon Black, and lawyer Alan Dershowitz. The faces and names of all the ladies listed as “girlfriends” have been redacted within the copy launched by Congress.
In a be aware signed by “Leon,” the creator writes in a poem, “Green eyeshades, schemes and plans, a unique tax strategy/Wet dream and cauchemar.” (“Cauchemar” is the French phrase for nightmare.) Black’s monetary ties to Epstein for tax companies have come below suspicion in current months by Senate Committee on Finance rating member Ron Wyden. Black’s spokesperson declined to touch upon the letter.

The e-book additionally contained {a photograph} of Epstein holding a large verify with what seems to be Trump’s signature. Under it, an unsigned be aware claims that Epstein offered a “fully depreciated [redacted] to Donald Trump for $22,500.” The be aware’s creator wrote: “I handled the deal and I didn’t get any of the money or the girl!”
Former Victoria’s Secret CEO Leslie Wexner apparently drew Epstein a set of breasts with the transient be aware, “I wanted to get you what you want … So here it is.” Former Harvard Dean and economist Henry Rosovsky, whom Ghislaine Maxwell named as a “massage” recipient in July, created a extra summary drawing “in honor of Epstein’s Barfday.”

Former Microsoft Chief Expertise Officer Nathan Myhrvold can also be named within the e-book. A message signed “Nathan” accompanies photographs of copulating safari animals, which the creator writes “seemed more appropriate than anything I could put into words.” Hyperallergic has tried to contact a consultant for Myhrvold for remark.Former Microsoft Chief Expertise Officer Nathan Myhrvold can also be named within the e-book. A message signed “Nathan” accompanies photographs of copulating safari animals, which the creator writes “seemed more appropriate than anything I could put into words.” A spokesperson for Myhrvold advised Hyperallergic that he knew Epstein from “TED conferences and as a donor to basic scientific research,” however that Myhrvold “regrets” ever assembly him.
The “birthday book” was acquired by the Home Oversight Committee by a subpoena of Epstein’s property, in keeping with the group’s main Democrat, Robert Garcia of California’s forty second district. Committee Democrats celebrated the retrieval of the paperwork and posted excerpts on X yesterday, claiming that the scans are proof that Trump lied about his birthday card. Republicans within the Home Oversight Committee accused the Democrats of cherry-picking paperwork and launched all 238 pages to the general public in a press launch.
Although the birthday e-book seems to be undated, Epstein turned 50 in 2003, 5 years earlier than he pled responsible to state costs of solicitation of prostitution with a minor and served an 18-month sentence in a minimum-security facility. In July 2019, Epstein was charged with intercourse trafficking of minors and was discovered useless in his cell on the Metropolitan Correctional Middle in Manhattan a month later.
This picture of zebras having intercourse, apparently offered by former Microsoft government Nathan Myhrvold, was among the many paperwork launched by Congress.
