Renowned author Michael Wolff has once again brought attention to his controversial claims about Jeffrey Epstein showing him photographs of Donald Trump with “topless young women” sitting on his lap. In an interview with Times Now, Wolff expanded on the shocking images Epstein allegedly displayed, reiterating claims he made in his 2024 podcast Fire & Fury.
What did Wolff share in the interview?
During the interview, Wolff elaborated on the dozens of photos Epstein purportedly showed him, claiming that the disgraced financier found amusement in sharing these images with those around him.
“Epstein would take about a dozen of snapshots, he took it out to show as an amusing thing. This is after Trump became the president of the US,” Wolff recalled.
“There were about a dozen. Epstein also showed me photographs of Trump around Epstein’s pool with young women. I remember three specifically: two topless young women on Trump’s lap, and a third where Trump had a stain on his pants while four or five girls laughed and pointed.”
Wolff went on to explain that these images were in Epstein’s possession at the time of his arrest, but after the FBI took control of his assets, the photographs mysteriously disappeared.
“Where are those pictures, I have no idea. These pictures were with Epstein, and after his arrest, the FBI came in, those pictures have since disappeared.”
The fallout between Trump and Epstein
Wolff also discussed the bitter fallout between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, claiming that a series of events led to their falling-out, ultimately leading to Epstein’s arrest.
According to Wolff, the rift began in 2004 over a $36 million Palm Beach mansion that Epstein believed he had secured. Epstein, who was close friends with Trump at the time, even invited him to discuss changes to the swimming pool of the luxury property.
However, Wolff asserts that Trump went behind Epstein’s back and purchased the mansion for $40 million. “Epstein… understood that he didn’t have $40 million to pay for this house, so Epstein believed it is for someone else he is doing this,” Wolff explained. “Probably Trump is involved in a money laundering situation.”
The situation reportedly escalated when Epstein pressed Trump for answers, but Trump allegedly refused to disclose any details.
Wolff further claims that Trump, feeling betrayed, eventually tipped off authorities about Epstein’s illicit activities, particularly the “pool of girls” that Epstein allegedly kept.
These revelations from Wolff add further layers to the complex and controversial relationship between Trump and Epstein, especially as questions about the extent of their connections remain at the forefront of the ongoing Epstein scandal.
