President Donald Trump says Democrats who released Jeffrey Epstein emails mentioning him are trying to bring up his ties to the late sex offender again because "they'll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they've done" on the government shutdown and other issues. The emails were made public Wednesday by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. The White House accuses Democrats of selectively leaking the emails to smear the Republican president. Epstein wrote in a 2011 email Trump had "spent hours" at Epstein's house with a sex trafficking victim and said in a separate message years later Trump "knew about the girls." Trump denies any knowledge of Epstein's crimes.

Donald Trump is looking for a cut to Federal Funds for Public Media stations across the country. The House has already voted to end $1.1Billion that would be received by 1,500 TV and radio stations.
