The recordings, which have not been authenticated by law enforcement, major news organizations, or unsealed Department of Justice documents as of February 2026, include detailed claims of abuse and retaliation.

Riley, who identifies himself in the recordings as a former 13-year-old victim and later a US Army Iraq War veteran, alleges he was sexually assaulted by Trump within what he describes as a broader child trafficking ring involving Epstein. The material has spread primarily through a Substack publication by Lisa Noelle Voldeng and later across platforms including TikTok, X (formerly Twitter), Reddit, and Threads.

What Is the "Tent Pole" Allegation?

Among the most widely discussed claims is what has become known online as the "tent pole" or "tent stake" allegation.

According to summaries and paraphrased transcripts circulating from Voldeng's November 23, 2025 Substack post titled "Don't Worry, Boys Are Hard To Find" An Interview with Sascha Riley, Riley alleges that after being assaulted, he retaliated by inserting a wooden tent peg or stake, described in some discussions as a "tent pole," into Trump's rectum. The account claims Riley placed a condom on the object before inserting it and kicking it, causing severe injury.

The recordings further allege that Trump required urgent medical evacuation and that the incident resulted in permanent incontinence. These claims remain entirely unverified.

The publisher has stated that six unedited audio recordings remain in her custody, with copies allegedly shared with police and "trusted allies" in several countries. It is also claimed that Riley is willing to testify and undergo a lie detector test.

Beyond the "tent pole" claim, the recordings contain additional serious allegations, including claims of child trafficking, rape, torture, murder, forced participation in child pornography films, and an assertion that a child was shot and killed during what is described as a "snuff film." The testimony alleges that these acts occurred within what Riley describes as the Trump/Epstein network.

Other public figures named in the recordings include Lindsey Graham, Jim Jordan, Clarence Thomas, Andy Biggs, and others. However, no official indictments, verified court records, or law enforcement confirmations have linked them to these claims.

According to the publisher, there are supporting documents, such as pornographic movies and videos, FBI and CPS reports about William Kyle Riley (WKR), a military court-martial report about child pornography, and documents allegedly available through FOIA requests. The publisher argues that victim testimony should be regarded as primary evidence, but critics have cited the absence of independent verification.

The claims are still unsubstantiated as of February 2026 and are making the rounds on the internet without confirmation from courts, federal investigators, or mainstream media.
