Epstein survivor Chauntae Davies revealed on Wednesday during a press conference that she once traveled to Africa with pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein and Bill Clinton while she was being abused and “manipulated” by Epstein.
“I was even taken on a trip to Africa with former President Bill Clinton and other notable figures,” Davies told reporters. “In those moments, I realized how powerless I was. If I spoke out, who would believe me, who would protect me?”
It is well documented that Bill Clinton visited Epstein Island and traveled with Epstein countless times, even being photographed receiving a neck massage from the late Virginia Giuffre, one of the most prominent victims who died of a questionable, alleged suicide at 41 years old. Larry Summers, the former President of Harvard and a former economist for both Clinton and Obama, was also a close associate of Epstein and visited his private island, where underage girls were abused, numerous times.
A group of victims broke decades of silence on Wednesday at a press conference, stepping forward to demand justice, transparency, and accountability from the government.
This comes as Rep. Massie has filed a discharge petition aimed at compelling a full House vote on releasing classified Jeffrey Epstein files. The petition would force a vote on the Epstein Transparency Act to release almost all documents related to the Epstein investigation with redactions of certain information, including personal identifying information of victims, and it requires 218 lawmakers’ support. Only four Republicans have signed on so far.
Rep. Khanna claims support is growing on both sides of the aisle, with 212 Democrats and 12 Republicans expressing willingness to act.
During the press conference, eight victims of Epstein’s sex trafficking ring told their stories about abuse starting between the ages of 14 and 16 years old and spoke out in favor of legislation to release all Epstein files, alongside ther attorneys, Brad Edwards and Brittany Henderson, and Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), Thomas Massie (R-KY), and Ro Khanna (D-CA). Two family members of Virginia Giuffre were also present.
Some of the victims explained that they were taken to Epstein’s New Mexico ranch, his New York home, and his West Palm Beach, Florida home.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Epstein victim Lisa Phillips revealed that the victims plan to compile their own list of abusers and enablers they encountered with Jeffrey Epstein, and it could be made public if the DOJ does not release more documents.
“We know the names. Many of us were abused by them. We will compile the names we all know were regularly in the Epstein world, and it will be done by survivors and for survivors; no one else involved,” Lisa said.

While telling her story, Chauntae Davies also mentioned President Trump; however, she only said that Epstein “bragged” about his “powerful friends,” including Donald Trump. She did not say whether the President was seen with Epstein or on any trips like Clinton.
It also does not seem likely that the then-billionaire real estate mogul and TV star Trump, who was frequently seen dating models, would associate with Epstein’s sick activities.
Davies told her story of meeting Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and demanded accountability for the “so many others” who “played a role” in the grooming and abuse, questioning, “Why was Maxwell the only one held accountable when so many others played a role? Why does the government hide this information from the public?”
She demanded the passage of the bill to “bring accountability, transparency, and prevention, and to stop “the next generation of predators who seek to place themselves above the law through wealth, influence, and connections.”

Davies: Hello. My name is Chauntae Davies, and I’m here before you today as a survivor, a survivor of decades of pain, trauma, and betrayal at the hands of gland Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein and the people who enabled them and a government that for far too long refused to help. In 2002, I was living in California, a young woman with high aspirations of becoming an actress. I was already beginning to make a name for myself in the industry. A person I trusted, someone I thought was a friend, invited me to meet a powerful woman who could help advance my career. That woman happened to be Ghislain Maxwell.
I was asked to give her a massage, though I had almost no experience, and when I did, she praised me and promised introductions to someone enormously powerful, someone who could change the course of my life, and that man was Jeffrey Epstein. At first, I was an excited young woman on top of the world. Epstein flew me to his private island, he listened to my dreams, promised to help, but his promises came with a catch. The abuse began. He told me to keep it secret. He manipulated me with quid pro quo I did not consent to, but I felt I had no one to turn to. He was too powerful.
I was just one of the many young women trapped in his orbit. I was even taken on a trip to Africa with former President Bill Clinton and other notable figures. In those moments, I realized how powerless I was. If I spoke out, who would believe me, who would protect me? Epstein, himself, was the most powerful leader of our country— Epstein surrounded himself, I’m sorry, with the most powerful leaders of our country and the world. He abused not only me, but countless others, and everyone seemed to look away. The truth is, Epstein had a free pass. He bragged about his powerful friends, including our current president, Donald Trump. It was his biggest brag, actually, and what I endured will haunt me forever.
I live every day with PTSD. I live as a mother trying to raise my child while distrusting a world that has betrayed me. This kind of trauma never leaves you. It breaks families apart. It shapes the way we see everyone around us. But one thing is certain: unless we learn from this history, monsters like Epstein will rise again. There are files, government files that hold the truth about Epstein, who he knew, who owed him, who protected him, and why he was allowed to operate for so long without consequence. Why was Maxwell the only one held accountable when so many others played a role? Why does the government hide this information from the public?
This secrecy is not protection, it’s complicity. And as long as the truth is buried, justice will remain out of reach. That is why this bill matters, passing it will ensure that the suffering of survivors is not in vain. Passing it will bring accountability, transparency, and prevention. It will help protect the next generation of predators who seek to place themselves above the law through wealth, influence, and connections. This is not just my story. It is about every survivor who carries invisible scars. It’s about the weight we live with daily. It is about the families broken and the future stolen. So I ask you, President Trump and members of Congress, why do we continue to cover up sexual abuse and assault? Who are we covering for? Let the public know the truth. We cannot heal without justice. We cannot protect the future if we refuse to confront the past. Thank you.
It was later asked if President Trump was ever encountered by the victims, following up on Davies’s claim that Epstein bragged about knowing Trump.
CNN’s Manu Raju asked several narrative-driven questions about President Trump being named in an attempt to smear the President. However, none of the victims said they had ever seen President Trump with Epstein.
Attorney Brad Edwards had told reporters that he previously received help with his investigation from President Trump in 2009. He told Raju that the President was “friendly back then” and “did not think it was a hoax,” but “now it seems like, all of the sudden, somebody’s in his ear.”
