What was in Trump’s alleged birthday message to Jeffrey Epstein — and why was it shaped like a naked woman? Investigative journalist Daniel Bates joins The Tara Palmeri Show to unpack the creepiest artifacts from Epstein’s inner circle, including disturbing poems, coded language, and a network that protected him for decades. Daniel was a lead researcher on Power: The Maxwells, Tara Palmeri’s investigative podcast series about Ghislaine Maxwell — and he brings exclusive insight into the evidence the DOJ quietly gathered. From handwritten notes and recordings to the enduring mystery of Epstein’s enablers, this episode explores why justice remains elusive.
