New House Oversight documents show Jared Kushner’s media company invited Jeffrey Epstein to a 2013 New York Observer party attended by Donald Trump, Harvey Weinstein, and other high-profile figures — raising new questions as Congress prepares to vote on releasing the full Epstein files.
A 2013 Party Now Under Scrutiny
Explosive new documents released by the House Oversight Committee reveal that Jared Kushner’s media company invited convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to a star-studded New York Observer event in March 2013 — a party attended by Donald Trump, Harvey Weinstein, and other prominent figures in media, finance, and politics.
The email invitation, included in the newly disclosed trove, shows Epstein was on the guest list five years after his 2008 conviction for procuring a minor for prostitution, a case that resulted in a controversial 13-month work-release arrangement.
A source close to Kushner told the Daily Mail that the former White House adviser had “never met Epstein,” despite the invitation originating from his publication’s official mailing list.
A Guest List Filled With Future Scandals
Kushner and Observer CEO Joseph Meyer hosted the 2013 event, which celebrated “New York’s best and brightest.” The invitation list, however, now reads like a who’s-who of future criminal convictions and scandals:
- Jeffrey Epstein — convicted sex offender in 2008; died in 2019 awaiting federal trial.
- Harvey Weinstein — allegations surfaced in 2017; now serving a 16-year sentence for rape.
- Matt Lauer — fired from NBC in 2017 amid multiple allegations of misconduct.
- Ken Kurson — charged with cyberstalking; later pardoned by Trump.
Many guests, including Trump himself, had appeared in photographs or social settings with Epstein over the years.
Political Fallout as Congress Eyes Full Disclosure
The revelations arrive at a critical moment: Congress is preparing to vote on releasing the complete, unredacted Epstein files — a move that has gained rare bipartisan traction.
Despite previously dismissing Epstein investigations as a “Democratic hoax,” Trump now supports releasing the files, a shift that has surprised many in Washington.
Tensions even flared within the MAGA sphere when Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene publicly pressured Trump to endorse full transparency — prompting what insiders described as a “political breakup.”
The vote is scheduled for Tuesday, with both parties now under pressure to approve the release of the long-hidden documents.
