US President Donald Trump threatened to sue The New York Times over its reporting on his links to disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
A congressional committee this week received from Epstein’s estate a collection of letters and photographs allegedly sent to him for his 50th birthday. The documents included a message from former President Bill Clinton and a note, purportedly from Trump, written inside a sketch of a naked woman.
Trump is already suing The Wall Street Journal and its owner Rupert Murdoch for its reporting on the Epstein files. The scandal is resonating beyond the US, too: Britain today withdrew its ambassador to Washington over his alleged links to Epstein.
