After House Democrats unveiled 19 images from Epstein’s seized archive, Trump dismissed the revelations as “no big deal,” saying Epstein was widely known in Palm Beach and photographed with hundreds of people.

00:00Everybody knew this man, reporters President Trump at the White House after House Democrats

00:21released 19 new photos from Jeffrey Epstein's estate, including images of Trump alongside

00:26the disgraced financier. Trump shrugged off the revelations, saying he hadn't seen the

00:31pictures and insisting they meant nothing, because in his words, everybody knew this man.

00:37He was all over Palm Beach. Hundreds and hundreds of people have photos with him.

00:42The president added that he knows nothing about Epstein beyond casual encounters and

00:47framed the latest release as just more of the same.

00:51But the new photos show. The images, obtained from Epstein's estate and made public by

00:56Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, show Epstein mingling with a long list of

01:01powerful men. One photo features a younger Trump standing beside Epstein at what appears

01:07to be a social event, speaking to a blonde woman. Others show Bill Clinton posing with Epstein

01:13and Ghislaine Maxwell, and Bill Gates, Woody Allen, Richard Branson, and former British

01:19royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor in separate settings.

01:23Three images highlight Trump ally Steve Bannon, one sitting across from Epstein at a desk, another

01:28in a mirror selfie, and a third chatting with Epstein and Allen, suggesting repeated, if still

01:34unexplained, contact.

01:41Democrats stress that the photos alone do not prove crimes, but say they deepen questions

01:45about who moved in Epstein's circle and what they knew about his conduct. Committee members

01:49note that the 19 images come from a trove of nearly 100,000 pictures and videos seized

01:55from Epstein's properties, much of which remains unseen by the public. Democrats accuse. A cover-up

02:01representative Robert Garcia, the top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, accuses the Trump

02:07administration and Attorney General Pam Bondi of stonewalling Congress on the full Epstein files. Garcia

02:13says Trump officials campaigned on releasing everything connected to Epstein, but once in

02:17power, obstruct and hide stuff from the American people, instead of providing real transparency.

02:25He argues that survivors of Epstein's abuse deserve the whole truth and nothing but the truth,

02:31and vows to keep pushing until the Department of Justice complies with subpoenas and the new

02:35Epstein Files Transparency Act. A federal judge has already criticized the Justice Department

02:42for offering lip service while releasing only a fraction of the material and has ordered

02:47voluminous grand jury records tied to Ghislaine Maxwell's case to be turned over. Under the

02:53law passed this year, DOJ now faces a looming deadline to deliver extensive Epstein records

02:58to Congress, increasing pressure as more images trickle out and fuel public suspicion.

03:03Trump's defense and White House pushback. The White House dismisses the photo release as a partisan

03:14stunt designed to smear the president by association. Officials argue that Epstein sought out countless rich

03:21and famous people and that appearing in a photograph with him does not imply wrongdoing, especially since

03:27none of the released images show any criminal behavior. A spokesperson says Trump has

03:32done more for victims than anyone, pointing to his support for declassifying some records and backing

03:38the transparency law, even as Democrats accuse his administration of slow-rolling its implementation.

03:44Trump himself leans on the same message, telling reporters that Epstein had photos with everybody in Palm Beach,

03:51and insisting the new batch changes nothing about what the public already knows. So far he has not addressed

03:59specific shots that show his former strategist Steve Bannon in close conversation with Epstein inside the

04:04financier's offices. Images, questions, and the clock. For Epstein's survivors and their advocates, the photos are

04:13less important for who is smiling in them than for what they might reveal about how long powerful figures knew of

04:18Epstein's behavior and whether they helped enable it. With a congressional deadline days away and Democrats

04:25threatening further action if DOJ fails to deliver, Trump's effort to shrug off the pictures as no big

04:32deal may not be enough to stop demands for names, timelines, and answers that go far beyond a handful of

04:37party snapshots.
