Melania Trump Threatens Hunter Biden with Billion-Dollar Legal Action Over Epstein Comments

First Lady Melania Trump has issued a formidable legal threat against Hunter Biden, the son of former President Joe Biden, over comments he made regarding her and the late pedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein. In a letter sent to Biden, her attorney accused him of making "false, defamatory, disparaging, and inflammatory statements" about Mrs. Trump in a YouTube video titled "Hunter Biden Returns."
The letter demanded that Biden retract his claims and issue a public apology. Specifically, it criticized Biden's assertion that Epstein first introduced Donald Trump to Melania, which the letter deems a false and defamatory claim. The attorney's letter emphasized that these statements were "extremely salacious" and had been widely disseminated through various digital platforms, reaching millions of people globally.
Melania's legal team set a deadline of August 7 for Biden to comply with their demands. If he failed to do so, they warned they would file a lawsuit seeking more than $1 billion in damages. According to Fox News Digital, a source close to the matter confirmed that Biden did not meet the deadline or respond to the request.
Neither Hunter Biden nor his attorney has yet commented on the allegations.
The escalating legal battle highlights the ongoing tensions between the Trump and Biden families, particularly over Epstein's connections to prominent figures in politics.
