❓WHAT HAPPENED: A supposed email among newly-released Jeffrey Epstein-related documents, suggesting President Donald J. Trump dislikes black women, appears to be fake.
👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Jeffrey Epstein, the “Groyper” movement, the International Business Times, and President Trump.
📍WHEN & WHERE: The alleged email began to be circulated on February 1, but has now been deleted.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Trump will be there, [he] doesn’t like black girls, calls them ‘boogers’, won’t go [with them] in 10 feet,” read the alleged, seemingly fabricated email.
🎯IMPACT: A search of the Justice Department’s Epstein Library fails to turn up any sign of the email, and the AF Post account on X (formerly Twitter), which originally shared it, has since deleted it.
A supposed email from Jeffrey Epstein suggesting President Donald J. Trump dislikes black women, shared on X (formerly Twitter) by AF Post and reported by the International Business Times—despite the fact that it had not authenticated it—appears to be fraudulent.
A screenshot of the supposed email shared by AF Post, associated with Nick Fuentes’s anti-Trump Groyper movement and founded by former drug addict Aidan Thompson, shows an unidentified person emailing Epstein to say they planned to bring at least two women to an event, writing, “They’re up for anything, you’ll love them.”
“Not a good idea,” Epstein replies, adding, “Trump will be there, [he] doesn’t like black girls, calls them ‘boogers’, won’t go [within] in 10 feet.” AF Post shared the alleged email alongside a picture of Trump with Nicki Minaj, a black rapper and supporter, and it was subsequently reshared by many other accounts.
Crucially, however, the email appears to be a fabrication. The International Business Times, choosing to cover the email despite not having verified it, conceded five paragraphs into its report: “One should note, however, that the post was unverified and the document shared hasn’t been authenticated. It remains unconfirmed if they are among the official documents released by the Department of Justice as part of the Epstein files.”
A search of the Epstein Library made available online by the Department of Justice (DOJ) fails to turn up any sign of the email. Importantly, AF Post has deleted the post sharing it, suggesting they no longer believe it is genuine—although they have not issued a correction, and it can still be seen embedded in the IB Times report, which remains live as of the time of publication.
