Head of Policy & Advocacy Communications at JPMorgan Chase & Co. Trish Wexler told Fox News Digital that "The government had damning information about [Epstein's] crimes and failed to share it with us and other banks."
"We regret any association we had with the man, but did not help him commit his heinous acts," she added. "We ended our relationship with him years before his arrest on sex trafficking charges."
Trump then said lawmakers should not "waste" time looking into him and instead should focus on the Democrats he later named in the post announcing the probe.
In the second email, the disgraced financier told Michael Wolff that Trump "knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop."
Oversight Committee Ranking Member Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., called on the DOJ to release all the Epstein files "immediately."
The emails were released the same day that Trump signed a bill ending the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. The timing led Trump to accuse Democrats of using Epstein to distract the public from the shutdown fiasco.
Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., a member of the Oversight Committee, slammed Democrats and accused them of ignoring the stories of Epstein's victims in order to focus on Trump.
"How pathetic that Democrats are using Epstein's victims to bury headlines on their vote against reopening the government," Mace wrote on X.
Fox News Digital reached out to representatives for Clinton, Summers and Hoffman for comment.
