A newly released set of photographs from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate has provided a third layer of hard proof, after previously released emails and island photos.
The photos were released by the House Oversight Committee Democrats on Friday. They feature President Donald Trump, former President Bill Clinton, tech billionaire Bill Gates, and former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers.
Highlights
- House Democrats released new Epstein estate photos featuring Trump, Clinton, Gates, Summers, Woody Allen, and others amid ongoing investigation.
- Woody Allen is pictured on Epstein’s ‘Lolita Express’ plane with Larry Summers and Epstein, highlighting connections to the infamous jet.
- Photos show sex paraphernalia including restraints and ‘Trump condoms,’ items tied to Epstein’s estate and 2016 campaign memorabilia.
The House Oversight Committee received roughly 95,000 photos from the Epstein estate as part of its ongoing investigation.
Newly released Epstein images by House Democrats feature Trump, Clinton, Gates, Summers, and more
Film director Woody Allen appears several times, including in one photograph, seated on a private plane with Summers.
The plane is likely to be Epstein’s ‘Lolita Express,’ a Boeing 727, which was reportedly used to fly young women between Epstein’s homes in New York and Florida.

Victims say the plane had a large bed and padded floors for sexual activity.

Summers and Epstein had forged a relationship during Summers’ tenure as president of Harvard University.
Emails released by House Democrats earlier this month indicated that the two met for dinner frequently and that Summers asked Epstein for romantic advice. He has since been banned from the American Economic Association and forced to step back from his roles at Harvard.

While Clinton’s associations with Epstein have been well documented, Clinton has long said he cut ties with Epstein before his 2019 arrest and knew nothing of his crimes.
Trump has also been featured in some questionable images. One black-and-white image shows Trump posing with six women whose faces are obscured.

Gates appears in photos standing near a private jet and smiling alongside Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, Duke of York.

The two most damning pictures feature paraphernalia from a sex shop.
One includes restraints and a so-called ‘Jawbreaker Gag,’ and another shows a display of ‘Trump condoms.’
The condoms were a popular item during Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, featuring a cartoon of him with a message “I’m huuuuge!”
When asked about the photos on Friday, Trump said he had not seen them. “There are hundreds and hundreds of people who have photos with him. So that’s no big deal. I know nothing about it.”
White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson responded to the photos in a statement, accusing Democrats of “selectively releasing cherry-picked photos with random redactions.”

“It’s time for the media to stop regurgitating Democrat talking points and start asking Democrats why they wanted to hang around Epstein after he was convicted.”
Trump’s former chief strategist during his first term, Bannon, is also featured in the photos. In one, he can be seen talking with Epstein at a desk, and in another, he is standing beside Epstein in front of a mirror, posing for a selfie.

House Democrats also released some more images of Epstein's property, including a dental chair in a room surrounded by wall-mounted masks of men’s faces, a zoom-in of a “massage therapy system,” and Epstein himself in a bathtub.
Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz and Virgin Group founder Richard Branson also appear in the pictures.

The Justice Department, under Pam Bondi, is required to release the full trove of Epstein-related documents by December 19, as per the terms of legislation Congress passed last month.
