In Epstein’s ‘Birthday Book,’ a Celebration of His Lecherous Exploits
The book containing 50th birthday tributes to Jeffrey Epstein was released on Monday by the House Oversight Committee.
By Matthew Goldstein, Jessica Silver-Greenberg and Steve Eder
Sept. 9, 2025 Updated 2:25 a.m. ET

One friend compared him to the main character in Ernest Hemingway’s “The Old Man and the Sea,” except instead of fish, Jeffrey Epstein caught women, “blonde, red or brunette.”

Another friend described a demeaning sexual encounter that a woman endured in the back of a car that left Mr. Epstein “howling with laughter.”

“So many girls, so little time,” wrote a third associate of Mr. Epstein.

The 238-page book, littered with candid photos, drawings and collages, was released on Monday by the House Oversight Committee among the documents turned over by Mr. Epstein’s estate after being subpoenaed by the committee.

It offers a vivid portrait of how Mr. Epstein’s lewd and lecherous behavior with young women was both widely known and widely celebrated by people who described themselves as his closest friends and associates.

Compiled by his then-girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, the book contained everything from a handwritten letter from Mr. Epstein’s mother, to photos of scantily clad young women, to a cartoon drawing of Mr. Epstein lying in a beach chair getting what appears to be a nude massage from four topless women.

Most notably, the book contains the now well-publicized poem to Mr. Epstein that bears Donald J. Trump’s name. It is framed by a silhouette drawing of naked women and includes what appears to be Mr. Trump’s signature. Elsewhere there is an oversized check that purports to be Mr. Epstein jokingly selling a “fully depreciated” woman to Mr. Trump for $22,500.

One submission attributed to former President Bill Clinton focused on what he described as Mr. Epstein’s “childlike curiosity” and his “drive to make a difference.”

A spokesman for Mr. Clinton has said the former president was unaware of Mr. Epstein’s crimes.

Very comfortable and even giddy about all this is very revealing. ( and revolting)They obviously thought that it wasn't a big deal to mess with little girls nor did they think anything would happen to them if they were caught.

Yet I would bet every one of them would act completely outraged and sicken if it were some poor or homeless degenerate doing the same thing they were. Entitled asswipes that they are.



And this part: "Compiled by his then-girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, the book contained everything from a handwritten letter from Mr. Epstein’s mother, to photos of scantily clad young women, to a cartoon drawing of Mr. Epstein lying in a beach chair getting what appears to be a nude massage from four topless women."


Not just a " massage " but a hand job. Again the news trying to normalize it.

Epstein "selling" a "fully depreciated" [name] to Cankles.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15078429/trump-epstein-birthday-letter-book-signature.html?d8f1d6bacc1f&ai=15078429

It singles out a particular girl by name, then calls her "fully depreciated." Which in that sewer world of theirs means already molested and/or raped. And it says she is a commodity that can be sold. At a discount. And this is a joke between them.

And the media continues to whitewash it by referring to the "fully depreciated woman" when even the perverts refer to her as a girl.

And--older females as objects as too depreciated to serve their needs. So demeaning, so deeply disturbing.
