"The correspondences are dated between 2011 and 2019, the year of Epstein's death in jail, and his correspondents spanned industries and nominal political affiliations. They included Kathryn Ruemmler, former White House Counsel to President Barack Obama; Larry Summers, economist and former Harvard president; Michael Wolff, columnist and journalist; Peggy Siegal, entertainment publicist; and Ghislaine Maxwell, close associate and fellow sex offender. Epstein sent his emails from accounts that riffed on his initials, like "jeeitunes@gmail.com" or "jeevacation@gmail.com," and he punctuated them like E. E. Cummings."
"The most newsworthy portions of this particular email dump are those pertaining to the relationship between Epstein and Trump. This relationship ought to be undeniable by now, due to flight logs that show Trump as a frequent passenger on Epstein's planes, abundant photographs of the two partying together over the course of two decades, and even a lewd cartoon drawn by Trump for Epstein's 50th birthday. Previously, Epstein was recorded saying that he was Trump's "closest friend.""
Democrats released a batch of emails from Jeffrey Epstein dated between 2011 and 2019 involving contacts across industries and political affiliations. Correspondents included Kathryn Ruemmler, Larry Summers, Michael Wolff, Peggy Siegal, and Ghislaine Maxwell. Epstein used playful email addresses and idiosyncratic punctuation. Messages addressed business and personal matters, included dismissive comments about Trump's capacities and legal affairs, and offered PR and journalism advice. One remark in the messages can be read as an explicit reference to Epstein's pedophilia. Separate evidence such as flight logs, photographs, and a lewd birthday cartoon document a longstanding Epstein–Trump association while Trump denies a meaningful link.
