Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday sought to distance himself from the late financier Jeffrey Epstein, describing him as a "friend of the Democrats" during a campaign rally in Ohio, according to El Comercio. The remarks came days after Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a report Monday alleging that Trump was an "active participant" in Epstein's sexual abuse of young women, El Universal reported. The congressional document, compiled by Democratic staff, cites flight logs, witness testimony and other records to support its conclusions.
