A fresh storm is brewing around U.S. President Donald Trump following a report by The Wall Street Journal alleging he once sent a secretive birthday message to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The 2003 note, reportedly part of a private album compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell, was said to contain a crude sketch of a naked woman alongside the line: “Happy Birthday—and may every day be another wonderful secret.”
Trump has firmly denied the allegations, calling the report a “fake WSJ hoax” and vowing legal action against Dow Jones, News Corp, and media mogul Rupert Murdoch. He insisted he never drew anything in his life, despite auction records showing he once sold signed sketches, including dollar signs and skylines.
In a bold move, Trump has instructed former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to push for the unsealing of grand jury records linked to Epstein, in an apparent effort to clear his name and turn the spotlight elsewhere.
