A congressional panel released Monday evening the first batch of documents from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein, which included a letter allegedly sent to the sex offender by President Donald Trump. The letter formed the basis of a July report in the Wall Street Journal which prompted a defamation lawsuit from the president.

The Epstein estate provided the documents to the House Oversight Committee in compliance with a subpoena the panel issued last month, an Oversight Committee aide told National Review before the committee released them in full. The documents can be accessed online in their entirety.
