Trump bemoans destroyed reputations from Epstein files in first public comments since DOJ release

President Donald Trump bemoaned on Monday the potential reputational damage inflicted on people who appear in photos released as part of the Jeffrey Epstein files, which he insisted were only made public because of an effort to distract from his accomplishments. The comments mark the first time Trump has addressed the files since his Justice Department released hundreds of thousands of them on Friday pursuant to a new law compelling them to do so. The measure cleared both the House and Senate with support from all but one Republican and Trump signed it into law; his administration had previously said it did not plan to release any more Epstein materials after a thorough review.

Trump willing to release MRI results, but ‘no idea’ which part of body it examined

US President Donald Trump appeared open to releasing the results of a recent MRI, although he said he was unaware which part of his body was examined in the scan. "If they want to release it, it's OK with me to release it. It's perfect," Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One. Pressed by a reporter on which part of his body the MRI examined, Trump said, "I have no idea. It was just an MRI – what part of the body? It wasn't the brain, because I took a cognitive test and I aced it."

The US government has reopened after a historic 43-day shutdown that started during a federal funding dispute on October 1.
