Donald Trump sues Rupert Murdoch and two Wall Street Journal Newspaper reporter libel and libel claims he sent a lewd letter and a sketch of a naked woman to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Trump’s lawsuit on Friday, which is also targeted Dow Jones Jones News Corp filed in Miami’s Florida Federal Court Southern District.
Trump allegedly sent to Epstein in 2003, including sexually suggestive paintings and references to the secrets they shared.
It was reportedly a contribution to the birthday album compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell, who sentenced him to 20 years in Florida after being convicted of his conviction. Sex trafficking and other allegations In 2021.
“A pair of small arcs represent the woman’s breasts, and the future president’s signature is a clumsy ‘Donald’ under her waist, mimicking the pubic hair,” the journal reported. The letter allegedly concluded: “Happy birthday – maybe every day is another wonderful secret.”
Trump strongly denied the journal’s report and claimed the letter was fake. He said in Truth Social that he warned Murdoch, founder of News Corp., the newspaper’s parent company, to plan to sue.
The president said: “Mr. Murdoch said he would take care of it but obviously has no ability. Wall Street JournalNews Corp and Mr. Murdoch were soon. ”
Vice President JD Vance announced Thursday’s tweet on the report: “Forgive my language, but this story is complete and totally nonsense. WSJ should be ashamed of publishing it. Where is the letter? You’ll be shocked to learn that they never showed us, did they never show us? Donald Trump? ”
The lawsuit is the first lawsuit Trump filed against media companies during his tenure. But he launched numerous legal lawsuits before returning to the White House, raising chilling concerns about freedom of speech. Most ended up in a failed capacity, but over the past year he has won over $30 million in settlements through legal lawsuits against ABC News and Paramount.
The case also marks another chapter in the lattice relationship between Trump and Murdoch, whose Fox News Network advocates for the president and provides some staff. The two shared roots in New York’s tabloid culture and recently re-aligned. Trump in February Murdoch chaired in the Oval Officepraised him as a “legend” and “a great man”.

On Friday, in an attempt to undermine allegedly covered up anger by the administration, Trump ordered his Attorney General Pam Bondi to seek grand jury testimony against shameful financiers from the indictment.
In a New York document, Bundy cited “a broad public interest” that demanded its release of anomalous requests, often secret testimony.
Trump earlier said his truth social platform, where he authorized the Justice Department to seek public release of the material and to promote it to Jeffrey Epstein with “ridiculous propaganda.”
Epstein, a long-time friend of Trump and several high-profile men, was found dead in a New York prison cell while awaiting trial, accusing him of sexually exploiting dozens of underage girls at home in New York and Florida.
The case sparked conspiracy theories, especially among Trump’s far-right voters, allegedly wealthy pedophiles. Epstein’s death – declared suicide – accelerates the narrative before he faces trial.
When Trump returned to power in January this year, his supporters clamored for revelations about Epstein’s so-called list of clients. But Bondy released an official memorandum in July, announcing that there was no such list.
