President Donald Trump confirmed Thursday morning that Melania Trump’s attorneys are threatening legal action against Hunter Biden, saying he told her to “go forward.”
“You know, I’ve done pretty well on these lawsuits lately. And I said, go forward. Jeffrey Epstein has nothing to do with Melania and I introducing. But they do that. They make up stories,” he told Brian Kilmeade on Fox News radio.
The legal threat centers on a claim Biden made in an interview on YouTube about the Trumps’ relationship to Jeffrey Epstein, according to the journalist who conducted the interview and a copy of the attorney letter obtained by Fox News.

Andrew Callaghan, host of the YouTube series Channel 5, said on his channel that he had received a legal demand from the first lady asking to retract a video from last week, which currently has 1.3 million views. Melania Trump is seeking $1 billion in damages if they don’t take down the video. She also wants a formal apology from Hunter Biden.
