An email in the Jeffrey Epstein files that references U.S. President Donald Trump "blowing Bubba" has attracted scrutiny on social media.

On Wednesday, U.S. lawmakers released more than 20,000 pages of documents connected to Epstein, a convicted sex offender who died by suicide in a New York jail in 2019 while awaiting sex trafficking charges.

Some of the documents mentioned Trump, including one from Epstein's brother, Mark, which references photos of Trump "blowing Bubba." "Bubba" is a nickname of former president Bill Clinton, but Mark Epstein told Newsweek the individual was not Clinton. He did not provide any additional details about the identity of “Bubba” or the meaning of the emails.

Newsweek reached out to the White House by email to comment on this story outside of normal business hours.

Files related to Epstein continue to cause problems for the Trump administration, as bipartisan groups have called for greater transparency in the case and the further publication of documents and evidence in the government's possession.

Trump has consistently denied any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein and has said their friendship ended in the early 2000s. But the recent release of thousands of documents has brought fresh scrutiny to the president's relationship with Epstein.

In an email sent in March 2018, Mark Epstein told Jeffrey Epstein to ask Steve Bannon, Trump's former chief strategist, if Russian President Vladimir Putin has "the photos of Trump blowing Bubba."

“You and your boy Donnie can make a remake of the movie Get Hard,” Mark Epstein wrote.

Newsweek also reached out to Bannon and the Kremlin by email to comment on this story outside of normal business hours.

Posts on social media about the email have since gone viral, with people questioning what the email means.

One user wrote: "Who is Bubba, and why did Trump blow him?"

Call to Activism, an account with over 1.1 million followers, wrote: "WTF: In one of the leaked emails, Mark Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein’s brother suggests to ask Steve Bannon if Putin has 'the photo of Trump blowing Bubba,' to which Epstein replied, 'and I thought- I had tsuris,' which is Yiddish for troubles."

Trump is also referenced in other documents, including in emails between Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell in which Epstein called Trump "that dog that hasn't barked." In an email to author Michael Wolff, Epstein said Trump "knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop."

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee later released additional emails said to show Epstein's correspondence with former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers.

I swear to fucking god if the pedophelia gets him in less trouble than a consensual act between two grown men I'm gonna scream.

Though the idea of him blowing a naked Bill Clinton hammering on his six sax is at least funny.

I can but imagine that this will be a concept explored in generative AI images in short order.

Not gonna lie. If that turns out to be true, I did not expect that at all.

Raping a child on video would have not have been as damaging to his reputation in the eyes of his voter base than that. Especially if Bubba is a black man.

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 47 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

"Bubba" was a pretty common nickname for Clinton while he was in office because of his accent.

[–] theredknight@lemmy.world 15 points 15 hours ago

If you read the other emails with Bubba in them it's Clinton. They go on and on about Bubba butter

[–] Sludge@sh.itjust.works 14 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (2 children)

Ain't nothing illegal about getting your dick sucked by an adult black man named bubba. This, on the other hand - something about this case feels like it's probably illegal.

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 36 points 18 hours ago

The list of illegal things Trump did is long enough. What we need is things that will break the hold his cult has over the country.

So if it's really not Clinton, and presumably it's not some random guy named Bubba that the wealthy elite picked up on the side of the road and let join in their weird little games... Bubba is also a nickname a lot of people (myself included) call their brothers growing up.

I'm pretty sure it's also not my Bubba, but Mark Epstein's Bubba? That would actually fit with the well known anything goes party vibes. It would also make Epstein saying that Trump has zero good qualities a very sick burn that haunts from beyond the grave.

[–] IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 19 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

So many Bubba's to choose from.

I'm going to choose to believe that if it's not Clinton, it's Bubba the love sponge.

Doesn't have to be a person named "Bubba". Some dudes give their junk nicknames.

Puting having such pictures would explain quite a lot .....

[–] Joeffect@lemmy.world 13 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

This isn't the first time pictures of trump and putin having them have come up it might be the same pictures... but i remember this from maybe his first term?

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

Steele dossier. While you might read that it's been "discredited," the reality is that many of the things in there turned out to be completely true.

Probably wasn't Clinton, but just like Vance and couches, I'm running with it anyway!

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 24 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Mark Epstein wants to stay alive.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 11 points 15 hours ago

Maybe, but "Bubba" isn't very compelling evidence.

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 21 points 15 hours ago

'not Clinton' does not change the fact that Trump blew SOMEONE!

Is Hillary the only one that hasn't sucked off Bill?

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 15 points 17 hours ago

There wasn't room, apparently.

Eurgh, the mental image. Is this some dastardly plan to make everyone demand they just put the Epstein files back in a drawer and forget about them?

[–] vateso5074@lemmy.world 27 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (3 children)

Any chance "Bubba" could be Roy Cohn?

Very close with Trump, gay, had previously blackmailed J Edgar Hoover with compromising photos...it ticks a few boxes is all.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 14 points 12 hours ago

Someone said that Roy Cohn wasn't gay, he just liked to sexually dominate young blonde men. Okaaaay...

It should be noted that Cohn's two most prominent proteges were Roger Stone and Trump, back when they were both young blonde men.

Epstein, a convicted sex offender who died by suicide

Epstein did not kill himself.

[–] kikutwo@lemmy.world 20 points 19 hours ago

Is this why he's so scared of trans?

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 18 points 18 hours ago

Countdown to Republicans reversing this, arguing "Oh of course the oh so tolerant and LGBT loving liberals actually HATE gay people! They're attacking poor poor Trump over this when they claim to love and accept gay people! Typical hypocrisy from the tolerant left!"

[–] Reality_Suit@lemmy.world 18 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Ohhhh, so that’s why Trump is calling for the DOJ to investigate Epstein/Clinton ties. Always projection.

Damn, even him highlighting the area of the Clinton affair to people on White House tours is projection.
