The images include Epstein at his properties alongside other prominent figures such as Bill Gates and Woody Allen, with some photos depicting sexually explicit material.Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) accused Trump of covering for Epstein and called for the full release of all related files, urging the Department of Justice to provide transparency and justice for epstein’s survivors.
This release follows recent legislation, supported and signed by President Trump, that requires the Justice Department to disclose Epstein-related files. The DOJ has begun complying by seeking the release of grand jury transcripts linked to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal cases. Some identities of women in the photos were obscured to protect survivors.Democrats plan to release more photos soon.
Meanwhile, Republicans on the committee accused Democrats of selectively releasing photos to falsely implicate Trump, arguing that no evidence of wrongdoing has been found and criticizing the Democrats for politicizing the issue.
Latest batch of Epstein files show photos with Trump, Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, and Steve Bannon
Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released the latest batch of Epstein files on Friday, showing images of President Donald Trump, former President Bill Clinton, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, and former White House adviser Steve Bannon with the late sex trafficker.
Jeffrey Epstein and his properties are featured in 19 photos alongside the aforementioned individuals and other high-profile figures, including Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and filmmaker Woody Allen. A small number of the released photos depict sexually explicit material.
Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA), who serves as ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, accused Trump of covering for Epstein.
“It is time to end this White House cover-up and bring justice to the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and his powerful friends,” Garcia said in a statement. “These disturbing photos raise even more questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful men in the world. We will not rest until the American people get the truth. The Department of Justice must release all the files, NOW.”
Oversight Democrats’ latest press release comes after Congress voted on a bill that compels the Justice Department to release all relevant Epstein files. Trump got behind the idea ahead of the vote. Once it passed both the House and Senate last month, the bill was signed by the president.
The DOJ has since moved to comply with the law by requesting courts to release the grand jury transcripts from Epstein’s and Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal cases.
In some of the photos, faces of certain women were blacked out. Oversight Democrats said this censorship is meant to protect the identities of Epstein survivors.
They plan to release more photos to the public in the coming days and weeks.

The Republican majority on the committee said the panel’s Democrats were selectively choosing photos out of the total 95,000 that they received from the Epstein estate.
“Once again, ranking member Robert Garcia and Oversight Committee Democrats are cherry-picking photos and making targeted redactions to create a false narrative about President Trump,” a spokesperson for the House Oversight Committee told the Washington Examiner. “We received over 95,000 photos, and Democrats released just a handful. Democrats’ hoax against President Trump has been completely debunked. Nothing in the documents we’ve received shows any wrongdoing. It is shameful Rep. Garcia and Democrats continue to put politics above justice for the survivors.”
