A 53-page report released by Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee details a new rape allegation against US President Donald Trump by former Miss Switzerland Beatrice Keul, alongside accusations of a Justice Department cover-up regarding Trump’s ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Key Takeaways from the Report

• Allegations by Beatrice Keul: Keul, who previously accused Trump of groping her in November 1993, now alleges that Trump forcibly raped her in a hotel room at the Plaza Hotel in Atlantic City after spending time with Epstein. Keul claimed Trump promised to help her secure a visa and admission to New York University prior to the assault, which she described as "brutal."

• Investigation into Epstein Ties: The report, led by ranking Democrat Representative Jamie Raskin, links Keul’s testimony to a broader pattern of behavior involving Trump and Epstein. Raskin stated that five women have now directly accused Trump of rape or sexual assault committed in Epstein's presence or company.

• Calls for Special Counsel: House Democrats have demanded that Attorney General Todd Blanche appoint an independent special counsel to investigate Trump and all potential Epstein co-conspirators. However, the committee noted that the DOJ is unlikely to take action, accusing Blanche of acting as Trump's "personal attorney general."

• White House & Legal Context: The White House forcefully denied the allegations, calling the report a "desperate attempt by crazed Democrats" to undermine Republican political momentum ahead of the November 3 congressional elections. While Trump’s name appears repeatedly in government documents related to Epstein, he has denied all wrongdoing and faces no criminal charges connected to the late financier.
