"If the president wants to know what they need to do in order to put an end to this endless, endless conversation about Jeffrey Epstein — release the file." Former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen joined Antonia Hylton on The Beat and reacts to The Wall Street Journal's new report that the DOJ notified Trump in May that his name appeared in the Epstein files.

Trump is among other prominent figures named in the previously unsealed documents. He was mentioned in a 2016 deposition from Johanna Sjoberg, one of Epstein’s victims, who said the disgraced financier’s plane made an impromptu stop in Atlantic City in the 2000s. Sjoberg said “no” when asked if she’d given Trump a massage.

Dogged by questions on the Jeffrey Epstein scandal even from Scotland, President Donald Trump again sought to put distance between himself and the sex offender — offering one of his most thorough personal explanations to date on his former relationship with the disgraced financier.
