White House has firmly rejected documents that allegedly link US President Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, saying the papers are fake and misleading. The controversy has added fresh heat to ongoing debates about Trump’s past associations, despite repeated denials from his office.

During a press briefing on Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed the documents released by Epstein’s estate. The material appeared to show Trump’s signature and included a typewritten birthday message inserted into a sketch of a nude woman.

Leavitt said the claims were baseless. “The president has one of the most famous signatures in the world. The president did not write that letter. He did not sign those documents,” she told reporters.

Despite the White House’s strong rejection, reporters continued to press the issue. Maggie Haberman of The New York Times asked why Trump’s name appeared in the documents at all if they were inauthentic. The press secretary did not provide further details beyond reiterating that the materials were not genuine.

Jeffrey Epstein, a financier who was arrested on sex trafficking charges in 2019, died in jail under what officials called suicide. Since then, files from his estate and other court proceedings have regularly resurfaced, sparking debates about his connections with influential figures around the world.

For Trump, questions about past ties to Epstein have persisted over the years, though he has consistently denied any involvement in Epstein’s crimes. The latest batch of documents has reignited public interest, placing the administration on the defensive once again.

The White House insists the documents are fabricated, portraying them as part of a broader effort to smear the president. However, the issue is expected to remain in public discussion, as both media and political opponents continue to seek clarity on Trump’s historical associations with Epstein.
