Ten-Foot Replica of Alleged Trump-Epstein Note Installed on National Mall

Washington, Tuesday, 20 January 2026.
On January 19, 2026, a ten-foot replica of a birthday note allegedly written by Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein appeared on the National Mall, orchestrated by the protest group “The Secret Handshake.” Timed to coincide with Epstein’s posthumous birthday, the installation magnifies scrutiny of the former president’s past associations through a high-visibility political statement. The artwork, reproducing a 2003 message wishing that “every day be another wonderful secret,” stands as a stark reminder of the unresolved questions surrounding the recently released Department of Justice files.
