During her nine hours speaking with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche last month, Ghislaine Maxwell said nothing during the interview that would be harmful to President Donald Trump, telling Blanche that Trump had never done anything in her presence that would have caused concern, according to sources familiar with what Maxwell said.

The Trump administration, meanwhile, is considering publicly releasing the transcripts from the interview, multiple sources familiar with the internal discussions told ABC News.

Maxwell's meetings with Blanche took place for nine hours over two days.

Well NO DUH..if ANYONE had dirt on Trump, the Biden regime would have released it the second after Biden’s disastrous debate, that would have been it, no reason for Biden to drop out, no reason to try to assassinate Trump in Butler

[TigerClaws]

Exactly.

Trump got MSM to demand the release of the files... that’ll hurt Democrats. 5D chess!

[DesertRhino]

Did she say which intelligence agencies she works for? Or is it Just CiA and Mossad?

“””.if ANYONE had dirt on Trump, the Biden regime would have released it the second after Biden’s disastrous debate”””””

I’m surprised they didn’t just make some stuff up about Trump and Epstein.

I’m surprised they didn’t just make some stuff up about Trump and Epstein.

As the walls continue to close in on Democrats for RussiaGate, they'll fabricate a Trump/Epstein scandal out of thin air to divert away attention.

[Jonty30]

FBI, apparently.

[escapefromboston]

If they had dirt on trump they wouldn’t have wasted their time making up nonsense (Russian spy). I know people online will say “oh they didn’t want to expose themselves too” as if they couldn’t just leak one part of the Epstein file and keep the rest hidden.

[shelterguy]

“”””As the walls continue to close in on Democrats for RussiaGate, they’ll fabricate a Trump/Epstein scandal out of thin air to divert away attention. “””

If you watch any cnn, msnbc or other “news” places they have been trying to make EPSTEIN the new RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA for some time now. It’s not working.

[popdonnelly]

Democrats lose again. But they’ll keep trying to make this about Trump because they’re unethical.

James Comer Issues House Subpoenas for Epstein Files and Witnesses

August 5, 2025 | Sundance

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has issued a series of subpoenas for records and testimony from former government officials that pertain to Jeffrey Epstein.

The House Oversight Committee is usually the place where investigations go to die.

• Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: October 9;
• Former President Bill Clinton: October 14;
• Former U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland: October 2;
• Former FBI Director James Comey: October 7;
• Former U.S. Attorney General William Barr: August 18;
• Former U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales: August 26;
• Former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions: August 28;
• Former FBI Director Robert Mueller: September 2;
• Former U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch: September 9; and
• Former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder: September 30.

WASHINGTON DC – The House Oversight Committee on Tuesday issued subpoenas for Department of Justice records on the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, as well as for interviews with a slate of former government officials in connection to the case.

Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) announced that he was summoning nearly a dozen former officials to appear for depositions on the Epstein investigation — a list that includes former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Comer was required to send the subpoenas after a Democratic-led subcommittee vote in July.

The move is the latest in a broader battle over the Epstein files, which took the Trump administration by storm last month as anger boiled over from within MAGA circles about the administration’s handling of the case. (read more)

Suspicious Cat remains, well, increasingly suspicious.

[Dan in Wichita]

Yes, the Dems and their media are for sure trying to make Epstein the new Russia Russia Russia.

We shouldn't be surprised when they concoct a specific phony scandal to connect Trump to Epstein. It will be totally false, but they'll shout it all the louder and their base will swallow it without question.

[Sarah Barracuda]

They could have but they would have had to back it up with the files and they didnt want to do that, too many Dems on it they didnt want to harm Trump but also harm Dems in the process

[shelterguy]

“””They could have but they would have had to back it up with the files “””

They could just make up whatever they wanted. Much like the endless fake stories they put out about him.

[napscoordinator]

Then release everything. Everyone knows Trump is innocent, but he’s acting like he’s not. Just release everything and let the facts speak for themselves.

[Sarah Barracuda]

I think there are people in those files that Trump is being told to protect. Reminds me of during his first term when Pompeo told him to NOT release the JFK files, that it would be a bad idea to do it..so I think some are telling Trump not to do it now. If this was all about him being in the files, guess what, the files they released months ago, the flight logs and phone book, I saw Trump’s name repeatedly in it, so if this was all about protecting Trump they forgot to redact his name, so they didnt care then why should they care now. They could easily just delete his name and release everything else so the whole thing doesnt make sense unless this is about protecting big shots

[napscoordinator]

Has to be protecting somebody very powerful. There really is no other reason.
