In reply to the discussion: I'm not sure who (Victim) in the email was, but I think the GQP's claim it was Virginia Guiffre is BS! [View all]muriel_volestrangler
(105,216 posts)23. Indeed - as the BBC said:
Since that statement, BBC Verify has been combing through the documents released by the Republican-controlled House Oversight Committee. It has found the same email - in a file named HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_031326.txt.
However, unlike the fully redacted one put out by the US House Democrats, a name does appear:
"i want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump.. virignia spent hours at my house with him ,,"
Asked why the name was originally redacted, Representative Robert Garcia - the leading Democrat on the US House Oversight Committee - said the party will never release names of victims in line with the wishes of the families.

Its my understanding that the redaction was done by the Democrats to shield victims.

Wasn't Giuffre stationed at Trump's property until Epstein "stole" her?

Trumps full of it, of course, he didn't care about a towel girl going to work for Epstein
