**Melania Trump Demands Hunter Biden Retract ‘Extremely Salacious’ Epstein Comments**
| Palm Beach, FL* — In a bizarre twist that’s left the political world scratching its head, former First Lady Melania Trump has issued a scathing public demand for Hunter Biden to retract what she calls “extremely salacious and categorically false” comments linking her to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The comments in question, allegedly made during a private dinner party in Malibu last week and leaked to a gossip blog, suggest that Melania had “attended one of Epstein’s infamous island soirées” in the early 2000s — a claim her office has denounced as “laughably untrue, defamatory, and deeply disrespectful.”
In a sharply worded statement released through her legal team Friday morning, Mrs. Trump said:
> “It is beneath even Hunter Biden — a man whose name is synonymous with poor judgment — to traffic in such disgusting lies. I have never met Jeffrey Epstein, I was never on any island, and I certainly have no interest in anyone’s soirées, infamous or otherwise.”
According to sources close to the former First Lady, she is considering legal action unless Hunter issues a public retraction and apology “within 72 hours.”
Meanwhile, the White House has remained silent on the matter, though an anonymous aide reportedly heard President Biden mutter, “Good grief, not again,” after being briefed on the situation.
Hunter Biden, currently promoting a self-help memoir titled *Finding Myself… Again*, has neither confirmed nor denied making the comments. When approached by reporters outside a juice bar in Venice Beach, he replied only, “Epstein? I barely know Melania. I thought she was still in Slovenia.”
The Trump camp isn’t amused. Donald Trump, speaking at a golf fundraiser in Bedminster, called the situation “another disgusting smear campaign” and referred to Hunter Biden as “a walking disaster with a laptop full of lies.”
Social media, predictably, has exploded. Hashtags like **#MelaniaVsHunter**, **#EpsteinGateRedux**, and **#SoiréeGate** have trended on X (formerly Twitter), with conspiracy theorists and meme-makers flooding timelines with doctored photos, half-baked theories, and at least one AI-generated image of Melania wearing a sunhat on a suspiciously tropical beach.
Legal analysts say a defamation suit from Melania would be unprecedented for a former First Lady, but not impossible.
“Public figures face a high bar in defamation cases,” said Tessa Barkley, a media law professor at Georgetown. “But if the alleged comments are proven false and malicious, she might have a shot — especially if Hunter was drinking again.”
As the 2024 election cycle continues to ripple into strange new territory, one thing is clear: the era of political scandals involving dead billionaires, island rumors, and juice-bar denials is far from over.
