Newly released emails reveal Epstein kept close eye on Trump

Documents show staff kept Epstein informed of Trump's air travel - and Epstein kept up with news about former friend

A tranche of documents released by the House oversight committee on Wednesday revealed that Jeffrey Epstein's staff kept him apprised of Donald Trump's air travel as it related to his own transportation - and that the late sex trafficker kept up with news about his former friend years after their relationship soured.

This disclosure of about 20,000 pages from Republican members of the committee related to Epstein comes as Trump continues to battle with the political fallout related to their past friendship - and his justice department's failure to release documents as he had long promised on the campaign trail.
