A new bombshell report is directly contradicting President Donald Trump's insistence that the ongoing controversy over his administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case is a "hoax."

On Thursday, the Wall Street Journal reported that it had obtained a photo album that Epstein received on his 50th birthday in 2003 — three years before he was convicted as a pedophile — which was assembled by his longtime girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell (who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for trafficking of minors). The album included messages from Epstein's friends, former girlfriends and others. One typed message was from Trump, and included his signature.

In the message, which was written in the third person, is an outline of a naked woman. Trump is depicted as having a conversation with Epstein, who he described as a "pal" with whom he apparently shared a "wonderful secret."

"Voice Over: There must be more to life than having everything,” the note read.

Donald: Yes, there is, but I won’t tell you what it is.

Jeffrey: Nor will I, since I also know what it is.

Donald: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey.

Jeffrey: Yes, we do, come to think of it.

Donald: Enigmas never age, have you noticed that?

Jeffrey: As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you.

Trump: A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.

Trump insisted to the Journal that the letter and the drawing were "fake," and reportedly threatened to sue the paper over its article. Status News executive editor Jon Passantino reported that Trump apparently called the Journal's editor-in-chief, Emma Tucker in an attempt to discourage the paper from publishing the article.

"“I never wrote a picture in my life. I don’t draw pictures of women,” the president said. “It’s not my language. It’s not my words.”

"I’m gonna sue The Wall Street Journal just like I sued everyone else," he added.
