Sounds less like a smoking gun and more like a con artist talking himself up.

Factcheck:
The 2018 Epstein email to Jagland is authentic, from congressional documents released in Nov 2025. It shows Epstein claiming he advised Russia’s Churkin on Trump and offering similar insights to Lavrov. However, no evidence confirms these claims were acted on or that Trump was aware or compromised by Russia. Sources like Politico and ABC report it as Epstein’s self-promotion, not proof of collusion.
