Hi there, everyone. It's 4 o'clock in the east. A bombshell piece of reporting from the Wall Street Journal.

Has Donald Trump spending day 179 of his second presidential term denying to the American people in the world

that he wrote a birthday card and illustration to a dead and disgraced sex trafficker. That note, if indeed

written by Donald Trump, could add new depth and texture to our understanding of the common

interests that may have united Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein during their years-long friendship.

The Wall Street Journalist reporting that Jeffrey Epstein's disgraced associate

Galane Maxwell decided to put together a leather-bound book of letters and notes from associates

to give to Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday in 2003. The Wall Street Journal reports that

these letters or documents were among those examined by

Justice Department officials who investigated Epstein and Maxwell years ago.

That's according to people who have reviewed the pages.

From that report, quote, the letter bearing Trump's name, which was reviewed by the journal,

is bawdy like others in the album. It contains several lines

of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to have been hand

drawn with a heavy marker. A pair of small arcs denotes the woman's breasts, and the future

president's signature is a squiggly Donald below below her waist, mimicking pubic hair.

It isn't clear how the letter with Trump's signature was prepared. Inside the outline of a naked

woman was a typewritten note styled as an imaginary conversation between Trump and Epstein,

written in the third person. The card reads, quote, voiceover.

There must be more to life than having everything. The note began. Donald. Yes, there is,

but I won't tell you what it is. Jeffrey, nor will I, since I also know what it is. Donald,

we have certain things in common, Jeffrey.
