The oversized card &#8211; reportedly showing Trump&#8217;s signature and a drawing of a nude woman&#8217;s body &#8211; replicates an item first reported by the press in July 2025 and allegedly given to Epstein in 2003 (Epstein&#8217;s birthday is Jan. 20). The installation,placed overnight by the activist group Secret Handshake,invited passersby to add messages to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/california-begins-special-session-to-secure-funding-to-fight-trump-in-court-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"California begins special session to secure funding to fight ... in court - ... Examiner\">trump governance<\/a> and was permitted to stay through Friday. Secret Handshake previously displayed a statue of Trump and Epstein in September 2025 that was later removed for permit noncompliance. Trump has denied the card&#8217;s authenticity and sued the Wall Street Journal and others for $20 billion over the story; the Journal has defended its reporting and sought dismissal of the lawsuit. the Washington Examiner contacted the White House for comment and requested the National Park Service permit for the replica.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Giant replica of Trump&rsquo;s alleged birthday card to Epstein spotted on National Mall<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2475376\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>A 10-foot replica of the alleged birthday card from President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/opinion\/editorials\/4424462\/trump-deranged-text-greenland-damaging-dangerous\/\">Donald Trump<\/a>&nbsp;to the late convicted sex offender Jefferey Epstein&nbsp;is on display at the National Mall for roughly a week.<\/p>\n<p>Photos of the display depict a replication of the card that Trump allegedly gave to Epstein, which was previously covered by the press in July 2025.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/4425626\/michael-whatley-north-carolina-senate-campaign-sees-support-tank-poll\/\">Michael Whatley&#8217;s North Carolina senate campaign sees support tank: Poll<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/4425498\/russell-brand-granted-bail-following-two-new-sexual-assault-charges\/\">Russell Brand granted bail following two new sexual assault charges<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/4425467\/why-emmanuel-macron-wore-mirrored-aviators-world-economic-forum-address\/\">Why Macron rocked mirrored aviators during World Economic Forum address<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>The letter has Trump&rsquo;s signature and shows a drawing of a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >nude woman&#038;rsquo<\/a>;s body.
