US President Donald Trump did not sign a sexually explicit letter found in Jeffrey Epstein’s 2003 “birthday book,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday. She added that the administration would support a handwriting expert review of the disputed document.
“Sure, we would support that,” Leavitt said when asked about a forensic test. “The president did not write this letter, he did not sign this letter, and that's why the president's external legal team is aggressively pursuing litigation against the Wall Street Journal.”
Leavitt said, as quoted by BBC, that Trump has “one of the world’s most famous signatures, and it is not the signature seen in Epstein documents released by the House of Representatives on Monday.”

The “birthday book,” released by the house oversight committee, includes a letter with typewritten text inside a drawing of a naked woman and Trump’s name signed below the waist.
Fake ‘DJ Trump’ cheque disputed
Another page from the book shows Epstein holding an oversized novelty cheque signed “DJ Trump.” Leavitt dismissed the image, saying: “The signature on the cheque is ‘absolutely not’ Donald Trump’s.”

The ‘Hoax’ narrative
Reporters pressed Leavitt on why the White House has repeatedly called the controversy a hoax. She clarified, “I didn't say the documents are a hoax, I said the whole narrative is a hoax.”

Asked to elaborate, she argued that Democrats are “pretending to care about victims of crime and abuse” but are actually trying to distract from Trump’s record.
Leavitt also said the Trump administration has provided more transparency on Epstein than any previous government. She repeated that the president remains committed to locking up people who prey on children while rejecting the Epstein-linked documents as fake.
