US President Donald Trump has said he will order an investigation into paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged links to major banks and several prominent Democrats, including former President Bill Clinton.
Trump on social media said he would ask Attorney General Pam Bondi and the FBI to look into Epstein’s “involvement and relationship” with Clinton and others “to determine what was going on with them, and him”.
Interest in Epstein’s relationships was renewed this week after US lawmakers released more than 20,000 pages of documents from his estate, including some mentioning Trump.
Clinton has strongly denied he had any knowledge of Epstein’s crimes.
