It IS redacted. Mostly some faces blacked out in some photos and some names blacked out in some letters.

Even if its difficult to tie trump directly to abusing victims, hes an enabler at the very least. I think hes guilty of a whole lot more, and havent even gotten into morality of his actions.

The House Oversight Committee subpoenaed Jeffrey Epstein's estate Monday as part of its probe into the convicted sex offender.
Why it matters: The panel is seeking records that could shed new light on Epstein's dealings, including a "birthday book" reportedly prepared for him by his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell.

The House Oversight Committee received documents from Jeffrey Epstein's estate on Monday afternoon that include a "birthday book" to Epstein allegedly containing a doodle from President Trump.
Why it matters: The files could provide fresh details about Epstein's network and dealings, and the Oversight Committee is expected to release redacted versions to the public.
"Oversight Democrats just received the Epstein birthday book and additional documents from the Epstein estate. More soon," Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), the top Democrat on the panel, said in a post on X.
The committee received the records in response to a subpoena issued in late August as part of its probe into Epstein.

*On edit:
Friends list is alphabetical. Names come between a) Leon Black and Jean Luc Brunel b) Henry Rosovsky and Lesley Wexner.
Any clues?

In those files, "Request No. 8" is Epstein's phone book.
I don't know if the dates match up, but probably people who would be asked to contribute to the "birthday book" would be long-term friends.

(1,906 posts)I meant Epstein's phone book or contact list -- looks like a bad mail merge for Rolodex cards, but whatever.
I edited my last post to link to where the PDF files are stored online by the Congressional committee.
