Victims of late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and his incarcerated accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell said in a Wednesday press conference on Capitol Hill that they are putting together a list of the pair’s rich and powerful “clients” allegedly linked to their sex trafficking scheme. *** Now, together, as survivors, we will confidentially compile the names we all know who were regularly in the Epstein world. And it will be done by survivors and for survivors — no one else is involved,” she added. *** All 212 Democrats are expected to back the petition, [ to release the files]along with Massie and GOP...

The victims of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation told NBC News’ Hallie Jackson Wednesday that they had no knowledge of President Donald Trump doing anything inappropriate in relation to the deceased pedophile’s operation. Speculations surrounding Trump’s relationship with Epstein have drawn attention on Capitol Hill and the press following the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) conclusion that Epstein had not possessed a client list and its decision to not publicly release all of the documents relating to the sex offender’s criminal case. The victims told Jackson on “NBC News Now” that they had not heard or seen Trump do...

Rep. Ro Khanna is optimistic that Congress will approve the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files and says some of the late sex trafficker’s victims are slated to speak out for the first time this week on Capitol Hill. Mr. Khanna, California Democrat, and Rep. Tom Massie, Kentucky Republican, have teamed up to introduce the “Epstein Files Transparency Act,” which would require the Department of Justice to release its files on sex-trafficking investigations of Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell.Asked if he believes the bill will pass, Mr. Khanna said, “ I’m very confident it will.”“We have all 212 Democrats...

Before she allegedly took her own life exactly four months ago today on April 24th, Virginia Roberts Giuffre was the most famous of all Jeffrey Epstein victims. She was a woman that fought in the justice system, and got the trifecta of financial reparations: from Epstein, from Ghislaine Maxwell, from Prince Andrew. Giuffre knew where the bodies were buried – and now, from beyond the grave, she will have the last word.

.... Massie also has an ally in Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., a fellow self-described libertarian who describes Massie as a good friend. “I’m a big supporter of his, and vice versa. I’m planning a 10-city tour with him in September to support him, and we will do what it takes. We both represent sort of the liberty wing of the Republican Party,” Paul said. “We want to make sure that we don’t allow anybody to come in and try to defeat him.” Paul is the only GOP senator who voted against Trump’s megabill because of debt concerns, but, unlike Massie,...

A federal judge on Monday denied the Department of Justice’s request to unseal grand jury materials in Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal case. In his 31-page ruling, U.S. District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer, a Barack Obama appointee, says that the grand jury materials do not identify anyone other than Epstein or Maxwell as having had sexual contact with a minor. The DOJ request came as supporters of President Donald Trump have pushed for more disclosures related to Maxwell and her co-conspirator Jeffrey Epstein, the deceased financier and accused sex trafficker. Trump directed Attorney General Pam Bondi last month to release "any and...

Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell said nothing negative about President Donald Trump during her nine hour interview with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, ABC News reported on Wednesday. According to ABC’s sources, Maxwell told Blanche that “Trump had never done anything in her presence that would have caused concern.” The jailhouse interview took place over two days, last month, and and according to Maxwell’s attorney David Markus, she “didn’t hold anything back.” The Trump administration is reportedly considering releasing the transcripts from the interview to the public, but it’s not clear whether the administration plans to release the audio recording...

On Thursday, Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) introduced a resolution calling for the federal and state courts to release all available documents related to the Epstein files. Only redactions would be made to protect innocent victims. As TGP readers know, the Department of Justice has requested that grand jury records related to Epstein be unsealed. An Obama judge is currently demanding more information before permitting the release, however. One would think the Democrats would jump on this Mullin’s proposal, especially considering rumors that Trump is named in the files. But here’s what happened when Mullin officially introduced the resolution. “I ask...
