The full Epstein Birthday Book can be found here for those who are interested in seeing the entire sick thing.

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

more? In other words, this trump letter to his underage trafficker friend isn’t some new political hit. It’s his letter, it’s him in photos, and worse. Even if it’s difficult to tie trump directly to abusing victims, he’s an enabler at the very least. I think he’s guilty of a whole lot more, and haven’t even gotten into morality of his actions.

from the estate last week pursuant to a subpoena. That makes the letter even less likely to be a forgery, since the Trump letter is in a bound volume that was put together by Maxwell in 2003 and remained in the possession of Epstein and then his estate after his death ever since.

It came directly from Epstein's estate.

House Oversight subpoenas Jeffrey Epstein's estate
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.

House Oversight Committee receives Epstein birthday book
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.

In the 'Friends' list. Not trump. Wonder who?

*On edit:

Friends list is alphabetical. Names come between a) Leon Black and Jean Luc Brunel b) Henry Rosovsky and Lesley Wexner.

Any clues?

On this page, there are links to the files (Google drive and Dropbox)

https://oversight.house.gov/release/oversight-committee-releases-records-provided-by-the-epstein-estate-chairman-comer-provides-statement/

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.

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.
