"On Monday, the House Oversight Committee released a letter that depicted a line drawing of a naked woman, with what appeared to be Donald Trump's signature in place of her pubic hair. The letter, which also included an imaginary dialogue between Trump and the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, had been included in a book compiled for Epstein's fiftieth birthday, in 2003, and was handed over by Epstein's estate following a congressional request."
"For the past couple of years, he has been locked in a Hollywood-esque succession battle involving four of his children-Lachlan, James, Elisabeth, and Prudence-who between them held equal stakes in the trust that controls Murdoch's global media business. Murdoch apparently became convinced that, after his death, James, whose politics are relatively liberal, would, with his sisters, gang up on Lachlan, a rock-ribbed conservative, and set about softening, or even ending, the empire's right-wing orientation."
On Monday, the House Oversight Committee released a letter showing a line drawing of a naked woman with what appeared to be Donald Trump's signature as pubic hair. The letter included an imaginary dialogue between Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, originated in a 2003 book for Epstein's fiftieth birthday, and was handed over by Epstein's estate after a congressional request. The publication appeared to vindicate Wall Street Journal reporting; Trump denied the document, said he asked Rupert Murdoch to intervene, and later sued the Journal and Murdoch. The White House repeated denials and proposed a handwriting analysis. Rupert Murdoch faced a yearslong family succession battle among four children over control and ideological direction of his global media trust, prompting attempts to change the trust's terms.
