The 238-page book includes messages and photos from friends, acquaintances, and prominent figures. One note allegedly came from former US President Donald Trump. It read:
“Happy Birthday – and may every day be another wonderful secret.”
The note included a drawing of a woman’s body. The White House denied that Trump wrote or signed it.
Other entries include messages from former President Bill Clinton, who praised Epstein’s “childlike curiosity” and “drive to make a difference,” and Lord Peter Mandelson, UK ambassador to the US, who called Epstein “my best pal” and shared photos.
Some entries describe women meeting Epstein and other notable figures, including Prince Andrew. Photos depict Epstein on private jets, at exotic locations, and with women whose faces were redacted.
Wide-Ranging Content
The birthday book contains entries from around 40 people. Categories include “friends,” “business,” “science,” and “Brooklyn.” Sections for “family” and “girl friends” were redacted.
Stories range from casual greetings to personal experiences. One woman said she traveled the world after meeting Epstein, meeting royals and other high-profile people. Other pages include photos of wildlife, some showing lewd content during safaris.
Committee Response
House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer criticized Democrats for selectively releasing pages featuring Trump’s note, saying they politicized the documents.
Legal experts note that none of the people listed in the birthday book are accused of wrongdoing in connection with Epstein’s crimes.
The release provides an unprecedented look into Epstein’s connections, highlighting the wide network surrounding one of the most infamous figures in recent history.
