DOJ told Trump that his name is among others in the Epstein files: report
Justice Department officials told President Donald Trump earlier this year that his name, among others, appeared in the Jeffrey Epstein documents, according to a report. Attorney General Pam Bondi informed the president in May that his name appeared in the documents, senior officials told the Wall Street Journal. His name was one of many high-profile figures in the files, the outlet reported. However, a mention in the file does not mean there was wrongdoing. One official told the outlet that hundreds of names are in the documents. 'This is another fake news story, just like the previous story by The Wall Street Journal,' White House communications director Steven Cheung told the paper. Last week, the Journal published a report claiming that Trump gave Epstein a 50th birthday card containing a sexually suggestive drawing and a message suggesting the men shared 'secrets.' The president vehemently denied the claims and sued the paper and its owners for $10 billion. During the May meeting, Trump was told that DOJ officials didn't plan to release any more documents related to investigation because the material contained child pornography and victims' personal information, the outlet reported. The president then said he would defer to the Justice Department's decision against making any further disclosures. The revelation comes as the president tries to distance himself from the late financier and the fanfare surrounding the case. Last month, Elon Musk, formerly known as Trump's 'first buddy' claimed that Trump's name appeared in the files. The billionaire later deleted that tweet. Trump has publicly denied that he was named in the files. Attention around the case has bubbled up since the DOJ released a July 6 memo that said the department would make no further disclosures in the case. Even MAGA and prominent Republicans have since called for increased transparency around the handling of the case. The July 6 memo stung to some, including Trump's MAGA following, who had been anticipating more revelations in the case ever since Trump promised on the campaign trail to declassify the files. Earlier this year, Bondi said she had a 'truckload' of files to review from the FBI. In February, she even said the 'client list' of high-profile associates linked to the sex offender's trafficking scheme was sitting on her desk. That month, she also released 'Phase 1' of the files, a tranche of documents that included mostly publicly available information. Amid mounting public pressure, the president asked Bondi to make public any 'pertinent' grand jury transcripts. Bondi then asked the judges overseeing the cases of Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, the financier's former girlfriend who is now serving 20 years behind bars for her role in a scheme to abuse girls with Epstein. Experts have noted that releasing the transcripts would only account for a small portion of the files at play. On Wednesday, a federal judge in Florida rejected a request from the Trump administration to unseal the grand jury transcripts related to an investigation into Epstein in the state in the mid-2000s. A judge in New York quickly followed with a similar order. Justice Department officials are planning to meet with Maxwell 'in the coming days,' Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche announced Tuesday. Later that day, the House Oversight Committee approved a subpoena for Maxwell. Trump said that the subpoena for Maxwell "sounds appropriate" during questions from reporters at the White House. Trump has been trying to keep an arm's length from the case, but his frustration has shown through. The president reportedly hung up on a reporter after 30 seconds on the phone Tuesday after he asked about unearthed archived photos showing Epstein attending the president's 1993 wedding to Marla Maples. 'You've got to be kidding me,' Trump said before hanging up, CNN reported. Trump has also claimed the Epstein files were a 'hoax' cooked up by the Democrats. Last week, he went so far as to attack his 'past supporters' in a Truth Social post for buying into 'this 'bulls***,' hook, line and sinker.' He slammed: 'Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats' work, don't even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don't want their support anymore!'

Vikings' Jordan Addison waits for potential NFL suspension after drunken driving plea deal
EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — Jordan Addison's off-the-field trouble, the Minnesota Vikings believe, is fully behind him. There is one more pressing matter to resolve, leaving the team and the third-year wide receiver to wait on potential punishment from the NFL as training camp unfolds. After Addison avoided a trial on a drunken driving case in California by pleading no contest to a lesser charge last week, the adjudication paved the way for the league to issue discipline. NFL policy on substances of abuse calls for a three-game suspension for a first offense of an alcohol-related violation of the law. Though Addison resolved the citation from 2024 with a 'wet reckless' misdemeanor that comes with fewer penalties and does not count as a DUI conviction on his driving record, a no-contest plea bargain doesn't exclude players from league suspensions. 'Everything is out of my control right now, so whatever the league has got for me, I'll be prepared with whatever decision they make,' Addison said Wednesday, before the team's first full practice of training camp. Addison had to pay a fine and complete two online courses, with the expectation his probation will be shortened from 12 to six months. 'Just to get it all behind me and just get on with the season,' he said, when asked why he opted for the plea bargain. As for his takeaway from the legal process, which began before his rookie year with a citation in Minnesota for excessive speeding? 'Just be smart,' Addison said. 'Make smart decisions. That's pretty much all.' Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah said the team has been in contact with the NFL about the case but had no indication about when to expect a decision. 'They're obviously going through their process, and we'll know as soon as they know,' Adofo-Mensah said. 'Obviously, when that originally happened, we knew that it was a possibility, but really you're talking about team building in general. You might not have players on the field for various reasons, and you've always got to be ready with depth, players you're excited about taking the field and taking those opportunities, and this is no different.' Those players include Jalen Nailor, Tai Felton and Rondale Moore. Nailor had a breakout season in 2024, with 28 catches for 414 yards and six touchdowns after his first two years in the league were hampered by injuries. Felton was the team's third-round draft pick out of Maryland. Moore signed as a bargain free agent after missing last season with Atlanta with a torn ACL. He played his first three years in the league for Arizona. Addison's skills likely won't be replaced by any of those role players, however, should he be absent for the beginning of the season. With 133 catches for 1,786 yards and 19 touchdowns in two years, the 2023 first-round draft pick has flourished on the field as the sidekick in a dangerous duo with two-time All-Pro Justin Jefferson, who invited Addison earlier in the offseason to work out with him. 'Just talking to him and letting him know that, 'Hey, you need to be more vocal,'' Jefferson said during spring practice. 'He has that motivation and he's a great player as well, so people are going to listen to him as he speaks. Just trying to get him out of that shyness phase, or just being closed off and to himself, but I think he is getting better with that.' ___ AP NFL:
