The late sex trafficker is seen mingling with a parade of powerful men, including President Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Steve Bannon, Bill Gates, Richard Branson, and half of America's billionaire class, according to 19 recently released photos from Jeffrey Epstein's estate that were made public by US House Oversight Committee Democrats.

​In one hideous image, Trump's face is printed on a bowl of novelty condoms with the caption, "Trump condom, $4.50 — I'm HUUUUGE!" Being used as a sex-themed party favour in a serial predator's home is the epitome of innocence.

In another, Trump is seen posing with six women in leisurewear, their faces obscured. In other pictures, Steve Bannon is seen chatting with Epstein in a mirror selfie, Bill Clinton is seen with Ghislaine Maxwell, Bill Gates is seen with Prince Andrew, and familiar faces include Alan Dershowitz, Richard Branson, and Larry Summers.

The committee said it received over 95,000 photos from Epstein’s estate. This batch is just the beginning. Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia didn’t mince words: “It’s time to end this White House cover-up.”

He demanded that the Department of Justice to release all Epstein files immediately, saying these images raise “even more questions” about why so many powerful men orbited a billionaire paedophile for decades.

The White House fired back, accusing the Democrats of “cherry-picking photos” to “create a false narrative about President Trump.”

There are Epstein’s own emails, recently released, where he bragged that Trump “spent hours” with Virginia Giuffre and “knew about the girls.”

Trump’s team has dismissed this allegation as a “hoax.

''While none of the released photos depict sexual misconduct, they unmistakably show the ecosystem of influence, access, and protection that allowed Epstein to thrive — and how deeply connected he was to the most powerful men on Earth,'' said the Democrats.

A few of these people have suffered repercussions. Summers resigned from OpenAI and Harvard posts; Prince Andrew lost his royal titles.

Others, like Trump, have resorted to the traditional defence of denying everything, blaming Democrats, and calling for a "witch hunt."However, the question isn't whether there will be more bombshells because tens of thousands more images, documents, emails, and videos are still being received.

"It’s how many powerful people will be exposed — and how much longer the White House can keep pretending this scandal isn’t sitting right at Trump’s doorstep,'' added the Democrats.

Meanwhile, White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson said Trump’s administration “has done more for Epstein’s victims than Democrats ever have.”

“It’s time for the media to stop regurgitating Democrat talking points and start asking Democrats why they wanted to hang around Epstein after he was convicted,” she said.

Trump has been dealing with the Epstein scandal for months, in part because he encouraged his supporters to believe conspiracy theories about Epstein. Many Trump supporters think that Trump administration officials concealed information about Epstein's 2019 suicide death in a Manhattan jail as well as his ties to influential people.

​The Justice Department released a statement in July concerning the Epstein case. At that time, the department insisted there was no evidence to justify investigating any third parties in the case. It stated it had found no “client list” or individuals who may have been involved in sex trafficking, nor any evidence that Epstein had blackmailed anyone.
