Trump, Rupert Murdoch and Jeffrey Epstein
Digest more
The libel suit, which seeks at least $10 billion in damages, was filed the same day the Justice Department asked a judge to unseal grand jury transcripts tied to Jeffrey Epstein's case.
As the MAGA civil war worsens over the White House's handling of the Epstein files, Donald Trump has set his sights on a new enemy: Rupert Murdoch. Trump is suing the media mogul and his media empire over bombshell reporting from The Wall Street Journal alleging he sent a 'bawdy' birthday letter to the late Jeffrey Epstein.

U.S. President Donald Trump filed a lawsuit on Friday against Dow Jones, News Corp , Rupert Murdoch and two Wall Street Journal reporters, raising claims under federal libel law, court records show.
President Donald Trump has asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to produce “any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony,” related to accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, seeming to bow to pressure to release more material on the case.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Trump was among dozens of associates who wrote Epstein a letter in 2003 to mark his 50th birthday. Trump said he will sue the newspaper.
