Epstein Assistant Told Feds He Introduced Melania to Trump, Files RevealThe claim was made to agents and prosecutors before Epstein diedand it is a crime to lie to the feds.

The Daily Beast, February 2, 2026
A one-time assistant to Jeffrey Epstein told the FBI effectively under penalty of perjury that the pedophile introduced Donald Trump to his wife Melania, a newly released document shows.
The unnamed woman, a former model who worked as Epsteins assistant for a year from 2005 to 2006, made the claim in July 2019, three days after her old boss was arrested by the FBI and charged with child sex trafficking. The 11-page, heavily redacted document was published in Fridays dump of three million Epstein files and uncovered on Monday.
The womans claim contradicts Melania Trumps memoirs version of her meet-cute with her billionaire husband, as well as what he has said about how they became a couple. The White House pointed to a previous warning from the Department of Justice that the Epstein files may contain untrue information.
Snip
The bombshell claim about the couples origin story appeared in an FBI record dated November 2019, which details a July interview with a woman whose name was redactedand who was given immunity to speak. The document is heavily redacted and suggests that the woman was treated as a victim of sexual assault, as well as a witness who offered horrific details of Epsteins regime of sexual assault at on his private island.

From The New Republic....
Tate and his brother Tristan are under criminal investigation in several countries related to their web cam business, facing accusations of sex abuse and human trafficking. The pair allegedly trafficked more than 30 women in Romania and Britain. Andrew Tate, who has amassed a following of millions of teenage boys and young men while calling himself the king of toxic masculinity, also stands accused of raping and beating a minor in Romania.
Passed on from fathers to sons, evil.
