For nearly 15 years, the two men socialized together in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Fla., before a falling out that preceded Mr. Epstein’s first arrest.

A Wall Street Journal report late Thursday added new scrutiny to President Donald Trump’s relationship with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

President Donald Trump sued the Wall Street Journal, seeking at least $10 billion in damages, after the newspaper described a letter he allegedly sent to Jeffrey Epstein in 2003.

Trump's post comes after the Justice Department asked federal judges to unseal the grand jury testimonies in the criminal case of Jeffrey Epstein.

"I have asked the Justice Department to release all grand jury testimony with respect to Epstein," Trump said.

Former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Stacey Williams told CNN her ex-boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein and president Donald Trump "were best friends" when she knew the pair. "I have plenty of anecdotes," she also said.
