On July 8, Matt Wallace shared a post on X with a long list of names and claimed that the Trump administration is not releasing the Epstein client list as it allegedly involves some "Trump donors."

While sharing a long list that contains 80-plus popular names, including actor Leonardo DiCaprio, model Heidi Klum, and others, he added that there is more than this list. He wrote,

"The reason the Trump administration is not releasing the full files is that many of Trump’s donors are on the Epstein client list.... There is a lot more that needs to be released than what I have seen, but here are some of the names mentioned in the court who were allegedly involved."

The revelation came a day after the Department of Justice released a two-page memo and claimed that there is no client list and there is no evidence that Epstein had blackmailed any powerful associates.

In February 2025, the political commentator Matt Wallace claimed that he had seen the leaked files.

On July 8, another political commentator, Brian Tyler Cohen, asked Matt Wallace to release the names since he had already seen it and posted the following on X.
