- President Donald Trump is threatening legal action against media mogul Rupert Murdoch and The Wall Street Journal.
- The dispute stems from The Wall Street Journal's publication of an alleged 2003 birthday card from Trump to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
- Trump vehemently denies writing the card, which reportedly featured a sexually suggestive drawing and alluded to shared "secrets," labelling the story as "fake" and a "scam."
- Amidst his administration's efforts to dismiss "Epstein files" as a "hoax," Trump has instructed Attorney General Pam Bondi to seek pertinent grand jury testimony regarding Epstein.
- This action aligns with Trump's history of threatening media outlets with lawsuits over unfavourable coverage, following previous settlements with other networks.
