First Lady Melania Trump addressed ongoing rumors surrounding her alleged connection to Jeffrey Epstein in a public statement on Thursday. The remarks come as conversations about Epstein’s network and victims continue to resurface across media and political spaces.
In her statement, Melania made it clear that she had no involvement with Epstein or his actions. She directly responded to speculation that has circulated online and in public discourse.
“I am not Epstein’s victim,” Melania Trump said. “Epstein did not introduce me to Donald Trump.”
She continued by firmly denying any knowledge of the abuse tied to Epstein’s crimes. “I have never had any knowledge of Epstein’s abuse of his victims,” she added. “I was never involved in any capacity. I was not a participant.”
These statements aim to separate her from the broader controversy surrounding Epstein. Additionally, her comments come at a time when many public figures are being questioned about past associations with him. As a result, her response appears intended to clarify her position and address public concern directly.
Melania Trump Calls On Congress To Take Action For Epstein Survivors
Beyond denying any personal connection, Melania Trump shifted focus toward the victims of Epstein’s abuse. She used her platform to call for legislative action and increased visibility for survivors.In particular, she urged Congress to create a formal setting where victims can share their experiences publicly. This call aligns with ongoing demands from advocacy groups seeking accountability and transparency in cases tied to Epstein.
“I call on Congress to provide the women who have been victimized by Epstein with a public hearing specifically centered around the survivors, give these victims their opportunity to testify under oath in front of Congress with the power of sworn testimony,” she said.
“Each and every woman should have her day to tell her story in public, if she wishes, and then her testimony should be permanently entered into the congressional record.”
