'Miss u': Trump's 'longtime confidant' exposed over intimate emails with Epstein

By David McAfee
Published February 14, 2026 4:25 PM ET

A Donald Trump insider has been revealed to have been in "regular contact" with the late child sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein, including in one email that says "miss u," according to the latest DOJ release.

CBS News reported on the Epstein files release on Saturday in an article called, "Trump insider Tom Barrack kept in regular contact with Jeffrey Epstein for years, files show." Barrack is also an administration ambassador to Turkey.

"President Trump's longtime confidant Thomas Barrack, now serving as U.S. ambassador to Turkey and special envoy to Syria, was in regular, close contact with Jeffrey Epstein for years after Epstein's 2008 conviction for soliciting a minor, a CBS News analysis of over 100 texts and email exchanges from the newly released Justice Department documents shows," according to CBS.

Lets remind everyone what is confirmation vote was...............he is mentioned around 544 times in those Epstein files............did anyone during his confirmation ask him about the Jeffrey Epstein issue.........apparently not..............maybe someone should bring him back in and ask some questions..........I keep thinking of ,what's the word , oh, yes, blackmail.............
