Transcript
[Ben Meiselas] can we talk for a second about the fact
that Donald Trump is flying around right
now in Jeffrey Epstein's former Jet and
Donald Trump is campaigning on the
Epstein plane seems like a pretty big
deal right so the tail number of the
plane has changed but the serial number
which stays with the hull has not
changed and so we're able to see that it
is indeed the same exact plane here's
Jeffrey Epstein in front of his Gulf
Stream 550 Arrow here's Donald Trump
he's now put Trump 2024 over the same
Gulf Stream that jeffre Epstein used to
traffic women in folks let's just take a
look at the data so we can see it for
ourselves you'll see that Jeffrey
Epstein's plane had a different tail
number than what it currently is but as
you take a look at the serial number
take a look right here at the serial
numbers and you'll compare them the
serial number
5173 compare it to the serial number
right now
5173 and you'll see that it is the same
Gulf Stream 550 plane you put them side
by side Undisputed same plane so what
happened was is that uh Epstein's plane
sold in 2020 to uh a friend of Donald
Trump's and a trump donor it sold for
$6.9 million in July of 2020 the New
York Post wrote about it there and
apparently this is how how Donald Trump
has now gotten his hands on that plane
and Trump is flying around in that plane
as um this one account says the tail
number
n212 J the same plane belonged to
Jeffrey Epstein which was purchased by a
friend of Donald Trump's um the same
account said is anyone going to ask
Donald Trump why he was flying on
Jeffrey Epstein's plane on
Saturday in campaigning in it and why it
is now why it now has the Trump Vance
names on it or it says Trump
2024 um you know we're going to call it
out and we're going to question it here
at the mightest touch Network and we're
going to just show people the facts and
people can assess for themselves and you
know I think that Donald Trump is flying
around in Epstein's jet currently just
think there's a lot there's a lot of um
G550 out there that you could have got
that's the one that you want to use but
look I think it opens up the Pandora's
Box and we should talk about their
relationship we should talk about the
fact that Donald Trump and Jeffrey
Epstein were very close friends and for
those who watch the mightest touch
Network you know that we've done our
digging on their relationship and we
continue to just talk about it and
Report the facts so let's report the
facts shall we Donald Trump and Jeffrey
Epstein were very close friends in the
1990s they were very close close friends
in general they both lived in West Palm
Beach um and Donald Trump said about
Jeffrey Epstein in 2002 that is a direct
quote that Donald Trump gave to New York
Magazine that Jeffrey Epstein is a great
guy who likes women on the younger side
Donald Trump meant girls but Donald
Trump said liked women on the younger
side now one of the areas where Jeffrey
Epstein recruited from and trafficked
women was from maral Lago case in point
Virginia je Fray Virginia je Fray was
working at maralago she was previously
homeless she then worked at maral Lago
and gilain Maxwell who did the
trafficking for Jeffrey Epstein found
Virginia je fre and maral Lago and she
saidd like you to meet a wealthy person
who I work for and the rest was history
and that's how she was introduced to uh
Jeffrey Epstein now you go through uh
the photo of the fact that Donald Trump
brought his kids around Jeffrey Epstein
there's like a photo right here Donald
Trump hung out with Jeffrey Epstein uh a
ton of times they frequently partied
together uh you see that uh photo right
there the infamous photo and Donald
Trump is on Jeffrey Epstein's phone logs
Donald Trump is on Jeffrey Epstein's
flight logs Jeffrey Epstein brought a
woman of indeterminate age on Donald
Trump's plane which was uh previously
reported during the gilain Maxwell sex
trafficking trial um a
for person testified that she was 14
years old Jeffrey Epstein introduced her
to Donald Trump throughout the Epstein
files Donald Trump's name appears on the
list over and over again Donald Trump is
in the depositions of women who were
trafficked by Epstein who talk about how
Epstein said I got to call my friend
Donald Trump and let's land the plane
the plane I guess could be the plane
that Trump's on now but land the plane
in Atlantic City to go to one of Trump's
Casino may have been an earlier plane at
the time to be with to to go and meet
Donald Trump in Atlantic City um so you
see this over and over again I mean look
what did Donald Trump say uh before
gilain Maxwell's criminal trial or while
her trial was taking place when the
Press asked Donald Trump what do you
want to say to gilain Maxwell who Donald
Trump was friends with Donald Trump wish
gilain Maxwell well he said I hope she I
wish her well I'll just put it in in
just so you see how Donald Trump said it
here play this clip um justan Maxwell is
in prison and a lot of people want to
know if she's going to turn in powerful
people and I know you've talked in the
past about prince Andrew and uh you've
criticized Bill Clinton's behavior I'm
wondering uh do you feel that she's
going to turn in powerful men how do you
see that working out I don't know I
haven't really been following it too
much I just wish her way well frankly uh
I've met her numerous times over the
years especially since I lived in Palm
Beach and I guess they lived in Palm
Beach uh but I wish her well whatever it
is uh I don't know the situation with
prince Andrew just don't know not aware
of it
yeah and so now in
2024 Donald Trump is flying around in
the Epstein jet campaigning in the
Epstein jet same serial number same
airplane and you see all of the
connections there
how about when Donald Trump went on
Howard Stern and talked about how uh he
would one of the reasons he own beauty
pageants is because as the owner he
would inspect girls naked um and he said
that uh he would they'd allow him to
inspect them naked no they didn't it was
without consent because he would say I'm
the owner of the pageants here play this
clip well you could also say is the
owner of the pageant it's your
obligation to do that so so you have
done that now tell me well I'll tell you
the funniest is that I'll go backstage
before show yes and everyone's getting
dressed and ready and everything else
and you know no men are anywhere and I'm
allowed to go in because I'm the owner
of the pageant and therefore I'm
inspecting it you know I'm inspecting I
want to make sure that is the dress is
everyone okay you know they're standing
there with no is everybody okay and you
see these incredible looking women and
so I sort of get away with things like
and by the way there were um you know
numerous uh women who came forward who
talked about Donald Trump engaging in
that behavior let me just show you a few
right here play this clip is it normal
to see men in dressing rooms at pageants
and the and the owner of a pageant
no no the um the director of the North
Carolina South Carolina Louisiana and
Alabama pageants it's very much a family
atmosphere um she doesn't even go
backstage when the girls are getting
ready only the female chaperons are
allowed backstage in the dressing rooms
um with the girls I've never had an
experience where there were or directors
or anything like that walking back in
the dressing rooms yeah as I understand
there U you have an experience of
something that happened the night before
the
pageant well not the night before the

City on the media tour they were doing a
book launch at Trump Towers for the
universal Beauty um book and they had a
bunch of former Miss usas and Miss

A former model who says she met Donald Trump through the late sexual abuser Jeffrey Epstein has accused the former president of groping and sexually touching her in an incident in Trump Tower in 1993, in what she believed was a “twisted game” between the two men.
Stacey Williams, who worked as a professional model in the 1990s, said she first met Trump in 1992 at a Christmas party after being introduced to him by Epstein, who she believed was a good friend of the then New York real estate developer. Williams said Epstein was interested in her and the two casually dated for a period of a few months.
“It became very clear then that he and Donald were really, really good friends and spent a lot of time together,” Williams said.

The alleged groping occurred some months later, in the late winter or early spring of 1993, when Epstein suggested during a walk they were on that he and Williams stop by to visit Trump at Trump Tower. Epstein was later convicted on sex offenses and killed himself in prison in 2019.
Moments after they arrived, she alleges, Trump greeted Williams, pulled her toward him and started groping her. She said he put his hands “all over my breasts” as well as her waist and her buttocks. She said she froze because she was “deeply confused” about what was happening. At the same time, she said she believed she saw the two men smiling at each other.
Karoline Leavitt, the press secretary for Donald Trump’s campaign, provided a statement denying the allegations, which said in part: “These accusations, made by a former activist for Barack Obama and announced on a Harris campaign call two weeks before the election, are unequivocally false. It’s obvious this fake story was contrived by the Harris campaign.”

Williams says that Trump sent her agent a postcard via courier later in 1993, an aerial view of Mar-a-Lago, his Palm Beach residence and resort. She shared it with the Guardian. In his handwriting – using what appears to be his usual black Sharpie – he wrote: “Stacey – Your home away from home. Love Donald”.

Williams, who is 56 and a native of Pennsylvania, has shared parts of her allegation on social media posts in the past, but revealed details about the alleged encounter on a call on Monday organized by a group called Survivors for Kamala, which supports Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris. The Zoom call featured actor Ashley Judd and law professor and academic Anita Hill, among others. Survivors for Kamala also took out an ad in the New York Times this week, signed by 200 survivors of sexual and gender violence, which was meant to serve as a reminder that Trump has been found liable for sexual abuse in a court.
After the alleged incident, Williams said that she and Epstein left Trump Tower, and that she began to feel Epstein growing angry at her.
“Jeffrey and I left and he didn’t look at me or speak to me and I felt this seething rage around me, and when we got down to the sidewalk, he looked at me and just berated me, and said: ‘Why did you let him do that?’” she said on the Zoom call.
“He made me feel so disgusting and I remember being so utterly confused,” she said.
She described how the alleged incident seemed to her to be part of a “twisted game”.
“I felt shame and disgust and as we went our separate ways, I felt this sensation of revisiting it, while the hands were all over me. And I had this horrible pit in my stomach that it was somehow orchestrated. I felt like a piece of meat,” she said in an interview with the Guardian.
She and Epstein parted ways soon after. Williams said she never had any knowledge of his pattern of sexual abuse, which would later become known. Epstein is now considered one of the worst and most prolific pedophiles in modern history.

Former model who met Trump through Jeffrey Epstein alleges former president groped her – video
The allegation of groping and unwanted sexual touching follows a well-documented pattern of behavior by Trump.
About two dozen women have accused the former president, who has been convicted of multiple felonies, of sexual misconduct dating back decades. The allegations have included claims of Trump kissing them without their consent, reaching under their skirts, and, in the case of some beauty pageant contestants, walking in on them in the changing room.
A former model named Amy Dorris shared allegations about Trump similar to what Williams described in an interview with the Guardian in 2020. Trump denied ever having harassed, abused or behaved improperly toward Dorris.
Last year, a jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing the columnist E Jean Carroll in 1996 and awarded her $5m in a judgment.
Williams’ allegations raise new questions about Trump’s relationship with Epstein.
No evidence has surfaced that Trump was aware of or involved in Epstein’s misconduct.
But Trump and Epstein knew each other for decades and were photographed at the same social events in the 1990s and early 2000s, years before Epstein pleaded guilty in Florida in 2008 to state charges of soliciting and procuring a minor for prostitution.
“I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy,” Trump told New York magazine in 2002. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”
After Epstein was arrested on sex-trafficking charges in 2019, Trump told journalists in the Oval Office that he “knew him, like everybody in Palm Beach knew him” but that he had a “falling out” with Epstein in the early 2000s.
“I haven’t spoken to him in 15 years,” Trump said. “I was not a fan of his, that I can tell you.”
Asked whether she had considered coming forward in the past, as other women were making allegations against Trump, Williams said she was a person who wanted to avoid negative attention or risk the backlash many other survivors have faced.
“I left the business,” she said. “I disappeared on purpose because I love being anonymous and I love my life of being a private citizen. Then I watched what has happened to women who come out and it is so horrifying and abusive. The thought of doing that, especially as a mother with a child in my house, was just not possible,” she told the Guardian.
“I just chose in my own way – comments on social media to contradict people who said he didn’t do anything,” she said.
Like other survivors, she said, she has processed what happened to her and became more confident about facing an angry backlash, she said.
Williams spoke about the allegations to at least two friends who spoke to the Guardian. One friend, who asked not to be named, said Williams told her about the alleged incident in 2005 or 2006 during a conversation in which Williams mentioned knowing Epstein, and how he had introduced her to Trump. The friend specifically remembers Williams telling her that she had been groped by Trump. Epstein was not a household name at the time, but the friend would later recall the anecdote when the Epstein scandal erupted.
“What I recall is that it was groping … what we would call feeling someone up,” the friend said.
Ally Gutwillinger, another longtime friend, said Williams told her about the alleged incident in 2015. Gutwillinger remembers the timing because Trump had announced that he was running for president.
“I went to her house sometime in that week and I saw a postcard of Mar-a-Lago and I said: ‘What’s this?’ and she said ‘Turn it over,’” Gutwillinger said. “She said something like: ‘He’s vile, he groped me in Trump Tower.’”

Epstein Showed Me Photos of Trump with Topless Young Women Sitting in His Lap, Claims Author. OCTOBER SURPRISE? Controversial writer Michael Wolff says Epstein kept the pics in his safe—which the FBI later seized.

Jeffrey Epstein showed off photos of Donald Trump with “topless young women” sitting in his lap, the controversial author Michael Wolff has alleged.
The pedophile financier had about half a dozen pictures which showed Trump by the pool with multiple young women, Wolff claimed on his podcast, Fire & Fury, Thursday. They were taken in the “late ’90s” at Epstein’s Palm Beach home, where he victimized dozens of underage girls along with his procurer, Ghislaine Maxwell, Wolff said.
Wolff alleged that they were in Epstein’s safe, which the FBI seized when they raided his homes in New York and Palm Beach in July 2019. The massive haul of evidence taken by the feds has never been made public—and while prosecutors disclosed after the raid that they had “hundreds of photos of girls and young women,” they have never offered any more details of them.
Wolff said of the photos, “They were with Trump at Epstein’s Palm Beach house sitting around the pool with these young girls, and the young girls are topless.
“And in some of the pictures, they’re sitting in his lap. I mean, and, and then there’s one I especially remember where there’s a stain, a telltale stain and on the front of Trump’s pants, and the girls are pointing at him and laughing.” Trump separated from his second wife Marla Maples in 1997 and began dating his third wife, Melania, in 1998.
The Trump campaign hit back at Wolff for the claims, calling him “disgraced.” A campaign spokesperson said in a statement to the Beast, “Michael Wolff is a disgraced writer who routinely fabricates lies in order to sell fiction books because he clearly has no morals or ethics.
“He waited until days before the election to make outlandish false smears all in an effort to engage in blatant election interference on behalf of Kamala Harris. He’s a failed journalist that is resorting to lying for attention.”
Sources in the Trump camp claimed that he had severed his relationship with Epstein when he learned of allegations that he was a sex trafficker and pointed to his quote: “I was not a fan of Jeffrey Epstein. And you watched people yesterday saying that I threw him out of a club. I didn’t want anything to do with him. That was many, many years ago.”
Wolff described the photos as he revealed details of how Epstein was a key source for him while writing his best-selling book Fire & Fury, which rocked the Trump White House when it was published in 2018. Wolff said he had as much as 100 hours of tapes of Epstein talking about Trump and played a short snippet of one of the tapes in the podcast. He also said he was prompted to speak after allegations this week by a former Miss Switzerland that Trump groped her, “grabbing and touching my body everywhere he could.”
Asked by the co-host of the podcast, journalist James Truman, “Where are these pictures?” Wolff suggested they may be among the items taken by the FBI, which worked for Trump’s attorney general, Bill Barr, at the time.
“You know, he would go and he would take them out of the safe. And then he would return them to the safe and I would say it’s likely that they would have been there when the FBI, Trump’s FBI at that point, not to put too fine a point on it, raided Epstein’s house and took the contents of the safe in 2019.”
In 2017, when Wolff was speaking to Epstein, the pedophile was living as a free man and socializing openly in New York and Florida. The tape appears to have been made in a restaurant.
But, said Wolff, he felt that Epstein was at the time living in fear of Trump, whose victory the pedophile had predicted the previous year.
“I couldn’t help but feeling that there was a level of personal fear there. So he’s having this conversation with me. And as I say, I’m writing Fire and Fury," Wolff said.
"I‘m trying to figure out Donald Trump, but it‘s as confounding to me, of course, as it was to everybody. ’What? Who is this guy? How did this happen?’“
Wolff said Epstein’s level of fear “startled” him, and said, “I’ve spoken to several other people who knew Epstein well and yeah, you know, they make the same point. And I know that Epstein would emphasize how he believed Trump was capable of doing anything. He had no scruples.“
Claims that Epstein had compromising material on the rich and powerful with whom he associated have long swirled, especially since his death in a federal jail cell in August 2019, weeks after his arrest.
Wolff also expressed some skepticism that Epstein’s death was by suicide -- something which Trump suggested himself in August 2020 -- but also warned that the alternative, a cover-up on an extraordinary scale, is itself implausible.
“The descriptions of how he died seem completely implausible, to have to break your own neck,” Wolff said. “But the idea of him being murdered seems to also imply that you would have all of these assistant US attorneys and FBI agents who had to keep their mouths shut.”
Wolff, a veteran magazine journalist and author who was also the biographer of Rupert Murdoch, has long been a divisive figure with some questioning the accuracy of what he says and writes. When Fire & Fury was published in January 2018 it attracted praise and bromides in equal measure and threats to sue by Trump, which never materialized. Wolff did not disclose that Epstein, who was then alive and free, was a source and only hinted at it long after Epstein’s death.

Jeffrey Epstein showed off photos of Donald Trump with “topless young women” sitting in his lap, the controversial author Michael Wolff has alleged.
The pedophile financier had about half a dozen pictures which showed Trump by the pool with multiple young women, Wolff claimed on his podcast, Fire & Fury, Thursday. They were taken in the “late ’90s” at Epstein’s Palm Beach home, where he victimized dozens of underage girls along with his procurer, Ghislaine Maxwell, Wolff said.
Wolff alleged that they were in Epstein’s safe, which the FBI seized when they raided his homes in New York and Palm Beach in July 2019. The massive haul of evidence taken by the feds has never been made public—and while prosecutors disclosed after the raid that they had “hundreds of photos of girls and young women,” they have never offered any more details of them.
Wolff said of the photos, “They were with Trump at Epstein’s Palm Beach house sitting around the pool with these young girls, and the young girls are topless.
“And in some of the pictures, they’re sitting in his lap. I mean, and, and then there’s one I especially remember where there’s a stain, a telltale stain and on the front of Trump’s pants, and the girls are pointing at him and laughing.” Trump separated from his second wife Marla Maples in 1997 and began dating his third wife, Melania, in 1998.
The Trump campaign hit back at Wolff for the claims, calling him “disgraced.” A campaign spokesperson said in a statement to the Beast, “Michael Wolff is a disgraced writer who routinely fabricates lies in order to sell fiction books because he clearly has no morals or ethics.
“He waited until days before the election to make outlandish false smears all in an effort to engage in blatant election interference on behalf of Kamala Harris. He’s a failed journalist that is resorting to lying for attention.”
Sources in the Trump camp claimed that he had severed his relationship with Epstein when he learned of allegations that he was a sex trafficker and pointed to his quote: “I was not a fan of Jeffrey Epstein. And you watched people yesterday saying that I threw him out of a club. I didn’t want anything to do with him. That was many, many years ago.”

Katie Johnson's full testimony of 2/11/16
Jun 5, 2020
Katie's video description was captured before Trump became President and matches perfectly with what's described by 100's of other underage girls.
Given Epstein’s history of secretly taping famous people taking sexual advantage of young women procured by Epstein, if the allegations in the Katie Johnson complaint are true, Trump has every reason to be concerned that tapes might exist which would prove Johnson’s allegations.
Attorney General (and Trump personal lawyer) Bob Barr made the highly unusual decision to un-recuse himself from the Epstein case and actually take direct control over the case, despite having previously announced he had a conflict of interest.
I would never have guessed that a billionaire could run a sex trafficking ring for decades with numerous people as accomplices and co-conspirators. But Epstein is already a convicted sexual predator and he continued the behavior even after his conviction.
These women who were sexually abused as girls deserve the complete truth. They deserve justice and it appears that Bill Barr and Donald Trump have the motivation to go to unimaginable lengths to prevent that from ever happening.

Here's Katie's case: Katie Johnson v. Donald J. Trump (5:16-cv-00797)

Transcript
[Katie Johnson] I came to this interview of my free will. No, there was nothing promised to me for doing this interview. Yes, everything that I say at this interview will be the truth.
I met Donald Trump at some parties when I was working for Mr. Jeffrey Epstein. There was about three or four times that I had encounters with Donald Trump. I was 13. The first time that I met Donald Trump was at a party at Jeffrey Epstein's mansion. There was an orgy going on, and he was kind of watching off in the distance. And he basically asked if I could come over and give him a hand job. And at first I wasn't very comfortable with it. This was like my first or second party, and I didn't think that that was my responsibility. But my recruiter told me that I needed to do it. So I agreed to. I said -- sorry, this is a little difficult -- but before I gave him a hand job he kind of slapped my hand away and said, "You need to use a glove." And the recruiter ran over and handed me a glove, and said, "No one touches Mr. Trump's penis without a glove." So I needed to use a glove.
I gave him a hand job and then immediately after he had an orgasm, he left. And I didn't see him again at that party.
Jeffrey Epstein is a billionaire friend of Donald Trump's who was responsible for throwing the sex parties. I originally came to New York trying to be a model, and in my travels, I met a girl named Tiffany there who was very interested in me, and she said that's what she did, is that she helped girls, you know, get what they wanted, and she could help me get into modeling, and that she knew a lot of people that were higher-ups, and that it would be no problem. And she said that I would just basically have to come model at a couple of events and meet some people. It would be no sweat.
So of course I went. You know, it sounded like no big deal. And she was recruiting the girls to come to these parties. And, they all looked, I mean most of them were near my age. There were a couple girls that were maybe 14 or 15, but it seemed to me like we were all very young.
So Jeffrey Epstein knew that I was 13 years old. When he interviewed me, he asked me to get down to my bra and panties, and I thought that was weird. But I mean, modeling, maybe it was something about my figure. And he asked that I give him a massage. And then he asked me my age/ I told him, you know, I told him that I was 13. I told him why I was there, and he basically said, "Well, I'm sure that you'll fit pretty nicely here. And then he tried to basically slip himself inside of me. And I pushed him away, because at that point in time I still believed that there were models, and then there were the girls that did that. Like I thought there was a separation. So, I told him that I wasn't interested in that, but he said that I would do.
And as far as Donald Trump, he knew that I was 13. I believe that Tiffany told him. He seemed to take a liking to me, because I was so young, and I was also a virgin. So, I don't know, but it seemed like he wasn't really into having girls that were liked by the other guys. He kind of liked things to be his first, you know, for lack of a better term. But he was the one who wanted to get to a girl before everyone else did.
Donald Trump knew that I was 13, because the first the first night that I was there, Tiffany actually suggested that, and she had a whole bunch of different wigs then. I expressed interest in them, you know. I always told her that I would love to walk around with blue hair, and so I tried some on, and there was a blonde wig that she said that looked great on me. So I wore that wig. And Donald Trump had specifically asked about me, because I reminded him of his daughter. And Tiffany said, "Well, she's 13 as well." So, he knew the first time that he saw me. But he took a liking to me because I looked like his daughter.
The reason I'm coming out now is when it happened originally, I just wanted to forget about the whole incident. And when I saw that he was running for President [in 2016], I felt it was my responsibility to come out and tell our country what kind of man this person is. I don't think that he should even be the dog catcher, let alone running the greatest country in the world.
After I met Tiffany at the bus station, she basically took me to her house, her apartment, and I got ready. I put on a blonde wig, because it seemed fun to pretend to be someone different, and then we went to the party that I was basically interviewing for. And Jeffrey Epstein was the one that was running the party. He had a quick meeting with everyone who was employed there, and he had a private interview with me.
The first time that I met Jeffrey Epstein, he did try to force himself inside of me without getting the go-ahead, or anything, and then it was probably about the third or fourth party when he basically forced, it was another massage, and it wasn't sex, but there was penetration, and I told him that I didn't want that. But he got a little irritated, so there was something about him that I kind of held a lot of resentment towards him.
By the time that happened, I kind of already had started catching on that maybe I wasn't there for modeling, and maybe I was just getting used for things. And I kind of held him responsible.
I did receive money to go to these parties. After every party I was paid by Mr. Epstein. Out of all the girls that were there with me -- most of them were 13, or 14. I think the oldest one might have been just turned 16. I mean, she'd been there for a while.
It was actually -- it was Tiffany who said he liked to watch other people have sex. I mean, he was a germophobe. He doesn't like germs. So rather than partaking, he just watches.
So I informed him that I was a virgin, so I was basically sorry. So it was Tiffany who introduced us.
The second time that I saw Mr. Trump was the same scenario. He was looking on at an orgy. And Tiffany came over to me and said that Donald Trump had requested that I perform oral sex on him. And I'd never done something like that with anybody, so I was a little nervous. So I walked up to him, and he was standing there very proud-like. and I just kind of moved towards that direction, and he kind of slapped me away, and said, "What are you doing? You know you need to put a condom, like I was some dirty filth or something without a condom. Tiffany ran over and handed me a condom, and she was apologizing profusely to Trump, and she said that would never happen again. And she looked at me and scolded me for being kind of like a child, and that anytime you touched Donald Trump's penis, it needed to have a condom on, or glove, you know. And especially when it comes to performing oral sex.
So I apologized, and then I performed oral sex on him. And again, once he was done, he hopped up and that's the last I saw of him at that party. Some of the things that I noticed that were weird with him was that sometimes, before the parties, he would come over, Jeffrey Epstein and himself, would kind of banter back and forth. And Donald Trump was very racist. He said a lot of racist things. Like there were a lot of comments towards Mr. Epstein being Jewish, and comments like, "You Jewish bastard." And there were some words I didn't even understand -- something about the shape of Epstein's penis being directly related to his mole, and I'm not too familiar with the Jewish tradition, but I'm pretty sure that whatever he was saying wasn't very nice.
He also referred to people of Hispanic background, and he called them Spics. That was around the first time that the World Trade Center had gotten the bombing in the 90s, and he was talking about the towelheads, and how it would just be better off if we didn't let them in, or you know, basically get rid of every one, every single one that was already here. And that just made me really uncomfortable; really, really uncomfortable.
He also loved to call black people "Niggers," and Arabic people he called "Sandniggers."
The only time that he tried to give me some money was our last encounter together, where he acted out a rape fantasy. I was forced to give that money back, because Jeffrey Epstein paid us after the party. So he just gave me the money. I don't even know why. He gave it to me maybe to make me feel more cheap, because it was a rape fantasy to him, but I wasn't playing.
So there were those two times, and then there was after. And the next thing that happened was that Tiffany approached me and said he had a fantasy where he walked in on his maids basically making out, and that it was some type of fantasy for him. So at that point, I was like, "I don't want to be involved with anything that has to do with him." But she's like, "There's nothing that you'll have to do, just he's requesting you to be involved." So I felt like I didn't have a choice there. But his fantasy is basically, he's walking in on his two maids. I was the white maid, and there was a Spanish girl named Maria, who was the Hispanic maid. And we were making out, and he walks in, and he gets really angry, and threatens to call immigration on Maria if she doesn't come over and make things right, and give him a blow job. So while she is over there giving him a blow job, I am just supposed to look scared, like, "Oh no," you know, and cleaning up things, and pretending like I'm trying to go back to my job as a maid. And he was so rude to Maria -- I felt so bad for her -- and I guess it just didn't seem like a fantasy. And it's the weirdest fantasy, you know. He was threatening to call immigration on her.
So she wasn't even near going down to give him oral sex before he slapped her away, and said, "You need to put a condom on." And she's trying to say that she is so sorry, and he's like, "I can't even understand what you're saying," and "Speak English'. He made derogatory comments to her, and then he's like, "You know what? You don't know what you're doing. Have her come over and show you how it's done." And he said that I had to go over there or else he was going to call immigration on Maria. I didn't know if it was true or not. And he said that if I didn't show her how to perform oral sex on him, then he was going to call immigration on her, and then get rid of us both.
You know, anything in relation to him getting off, or being satisfied, or happy, had to do with him being in power, extreme power. And it was always intimidating when he was like that. You didn't really know if it was true, or funny. It's like, if you refuse to play along, would he really call immigration on Maria? Would he really get rid of us both? And I didn't even want to know what that meant. You know -- it wasn't a game. We just felt like it wasn't a game.
The one night that I had the blonde wig on, he mentioned that I reminded him of his daughter. And actually, during the maid fantasy, I didn't have a blonde wig on. I was trying to stay away from blond wigs at the time. But he actually requested -- told -- Tiffany that he wanted me to wear it. Like anytime I had it on, and he'd see me, he would say, "Man, you look just like my daughter. And it wasn't like, "Oh, you remind me of my daughter." It was a sick, evil-like, "You remind me of my daughter." It was just this weird pleasure-sick-smile. Like, I don't even want to know what he was thinking about. I could imagine what he was thinking about.
After the parties would end, we were to report to Mr. Epstein, and basically tell him everything that happened, who and what they liked, and what they disliked, and if there were any requests or if there was talk about anything. That's when we told Mr. Epstein everything. And then he paid us, and we went home. And with me, you know, I would normally get taken to the airport to go back home.
The fact that Trump has a chance to be the next President makes me feel disgusting inside. I've always been proud to be an American, and I think we live in a beautiful country. But I just see him ruining everything. He's horrible. What he portrays on the outside isn't even that great, but people don't even know the half of it -- how evil, sick and twisted that man is.
I have a friend that's been my friend ever since the eighth grade. I confided in her, and she knows all about it. She knows everything. I mean, I destroyed everything from that trip. I couldn't risk my dad finding out. And now I think I'm old enough, but at that point, I didn't want to not be his little girl, you know. I didn't want to lose my dad.
Basically, I never kept proof of any of the trips. I never told my parents because, you know, there would be no good outcome of telling my parents. They would have grounded me, and I would have never been allowed out of the house. My father would have come unglued. I did tell a friend, my best friend, and she's still my best friend to this day. She knows everything. She knows it all.
I'm prepared to do whatever it takes to save the country that I believe that we have. I know what he does behind closed doors. And I'm willing to sacrifice my life to get our country back. And they're right about going in some type of positive direction, but this guy's not gonna take us anywhere positive.
You know, as far as my life changing by coming out with this information, I've thought long and hard about whether or not I should do it. And I've gone back and forth. But I think that the American people need to know what kind of man this person is. And if my life changes because of that, then so be it. But the American people need to know what they're dealing with.
If I had the chance to talk to Donald Trump, I would run the other way. I'm scared of him like I've never been scared of anything else in my entire life. I can't explain it to you, but the fear of him even being in the next room makes me have panic attacks.
The last encounter that I had with Donald Trump, Tiffany approached me about a rape scene that we're supposed to play out, and I didn't like the sound of that at all. But Tiffany promised, ensured me, that if I wasn't comfortable with something, we could stop. That she would be right there, and it wouldn't get out of hand; and it was just a fantasy, and it wasn't really gonna happen. Tiffany was always nice to me. I felt I trusted her. And I wouldn't always trust her, or do what she asked me to, but she was there.
And when he came in, he basically tied me to a bed with pantyhose. And they ties were so tight it hurt to even lay there. And I tried to say something, and his response was "Just shut up; shut up bitch." He was being really, really rough, and it just didn't seem like a fantasy. And I started to get scared. And he was basically ripping my clothes off, and I actually got really freaked out, and I told him, "I don't want to do this." I was screaming for Tiffany, and this was scaring her, and he's like, "Oh, you shut up, too." He just turned into this animal. It was a completely different person. It was like everyone in the room was scared of him and it was like I couldn't do anything about it. And he ripped off all my clothes, and he started to basically have sex with me. And I was screaming, because I never had sex before. It was my first time. And Tiffany was yelling at him too. She was saying that I was a virgin, and he told us to "Just shut the fuck up," and basically took my virginity while I was crying and telling him to stop, and just begging for him to stop. And Tiffany didn't know what else to do either. No one was there to help us, or me.
And so, he basically finishes it, and it didn't take that long at all. I mean, it felt like it was like five and a half hours; it seemed like an eternity. I don't even know how long it was, but he was done, and I was crying, and Tiffany was apologizing. She told me that she would never put me in that situation again. But he came over mad, because I was crying. And he said that I should be thankful that someone like Donald Trump took my virginity. Well, he didn't say "took my virginity." He said I should be glad that someone like Donald Trump popped my cherry and not some pimply little 14-year-old. And speaking to Tiffany, I asked, "What if I get pregnant"? I wasn't even talking to him. I didn't want to talk to him. I was talking to Tiffany. And he said, "Well, you'll get an abortion then, bitch." And then he just walked away. And then I told Tiffany that I needed to go home. And I never went back again.
I guess it's for you to decide. You know, I don't have any kids myself because I'm afraid to have kids, because who knows what kind of damage they can get into. But if you have a 13-year-old daughter, would you be okay with the person who's running our country doing that to your little girl? And I just want people to know. I have faith in our society that it will make the right choice.
He seemed to be taking great pleasure, and enjoyed the dominance and control he had over me. And the more I screamed, the more I got scared, the more he was enraged with power. And it was like he was just charged with it. It was scary.
My experience with Donald Trump has made it to where I can't be in a healthy relationship, I can't be in a relationship without without self-sabotaging it. I don't do well. I mean, I've been in a couple of relationships. I mean they're never of interest to me normally, but one man in particular was a wonderful man, and I couldn't even control myself from self-sabotaging. It was like I had to get him out of my life, and I don't even know why. It was like, anytime anyone loves me I don't feel worth it. I don't even know how to explain it. Like I can be friends, I can have acquaintances with guys, but anytime it's someone who expresses anything else besides that, I can't take any pleasure in it. Whether I mean to or not, it's like I hurt their feelings just so they'll never talk to me again. And make sure that it's not ever a possibility.
Donald Trump destroyed my feeling of self-worth, and my self-esteem, when it just bloomed. It hadn't even had a chance to experience anything.
I have only spoken to to one therapist about, this just recently actually. For a long time I just really tried to forget about it. I tried very hard. But I've been to counseling for other things. I went to counseling for the previous relationship that I was sabotaging. And my counselor said, "Something has happened to you, and you need to deal with that." And I was like, "Hmm." He knew that there was something that had happened where I was self-sabotaging, or sabotaging these relationships. But he said that it was my responsibility to deal with it.
Donald Trump has just destroyed my self-esteem. And I feel like it's destroyed part of my life. The only healthy relationship I could have had, I completely demolished it. And I love to choose the dysfunctional ones that I know I can just push away. After what happened with Donald Trump, I can't trust a man ever again. And thinking about it just makes me sick to my stomach. So when something so traumatic happens to someone who's so young, you never ever really get over it.

So of course I went. You know, it sounded like no big deal. And she was recruiting the girls to come to these parties. And, they all looked, I mean most of them were near my age. There were a couple girls that were maybe 14 or 15, but it seemed to me like we were all very young.
So Jeffrey Epstein knew that I was 13 years old. When he interviewed me, he asked me to get down to my bra and panties, and I thought that was weird. But I mean, modeling, maybe it was something about my figure. And he asked that I give him a massage. And then he asked me my age/ I told him, you know, I told him that I was 13. I told him why I was there, and he basically said, "Well, I'm sure that you'll fit pretty nicely here. And then he tried to basically slip himself inside of me. And I pushed him away, because at that point in time I still believed that there were models, and then there were the girls that did that. Like I thought there was a separation. So, I told him that I wasn't interested in that, but he said that I would do.
And as far as Donald Trump, he knew that I was 13. I believe that Tiffany told him. He seemed to take a liking to me, because I was so young, and I was also a virgin. So, I don't know, but it seemed like he wasn't really into having girls that were liked by the other guys. He kind of liked things to be his first, you know, for lack of a better term. But he was the one who wanted to get to a girl before everyone else did.
Donald Trump knew that I was 13, because the first the first night that I was there, Tiffany actually suggested that, and she had a whole bunch of different wigs then. I expressed interest in them, you know. I always told her that I would love to walk around with blue hair, and so I tried some on, and there was a blonde wig that she said that looked great on me. So I wore that wig. And Donald Trump had specifically asked about me, because I reminded him of his daughter. And Tiffany said, "Well, she's 13 as well." So, he knew the first time that he saw me. But he took a liking to me because I looked like his daughter.
The reason I'm coming out now is when it happened originally, I just wanted to forget about the whole incident. And when I saw that he was running for President [in 2016], I felt it was my responsibility to come out and tell our country what kind of man this person is. I don't think that he should even be the dog catcher, let alone running the greatest country in the world.
After I met Tiffany at the bus station, she basically took me to her house, her apartment, and I got ready. I put on a blonde wig, because it seemed fun to pretend to be someone different, and then we went to the party that I was basically interviewing for. And Jeffrey Epstein was the one that was running the party. He had a quick meeting with everyone who was employed there, and he had a private interview with me.
The first time that I met Jeffrey Epstein, he did try to force himself inside of me without getting the go-ahead, or anything, and then it was probably about the third or fourth party when he basically forced, it was another massage, and it wasn't sex, but there was penetration, and I told him that I didn't want that. But he got a little irritated, so there was something about him that I kind of held a lot of resentment towards him.
By the time that happened, I kind of already had started catching on that maybe I wasn't there for modeling, and maybe I was just getting used for things. And I kind of held him responsible.
I did receive money to go to these parties. After every party I was paid by Mr. Epstein. Out of all the girls that were there with me -- most of them were 13, or 14. I think the oldest one might have been just turned 16. I mean, she'd been there for a while.
It was actually -- it was Tiffany who said he liked to watch other people have sex. I mean, he was a germophobe. He doesn't like germs. So rather than partaking, he just watches.
So I informed him that I was a virgin, so I was basically sorry. So it was Tiffany who introduced us.
The second time that I saw Mr. Trump was the same scenario. He was looking on at an orgy. And Tiffany came over to me and said that Donald Trump had requested that I perform oral sex on him. And I'd never done something like that with anybody, so I was a little nervous. So I walked up to him, and he was standing there very proud-like. and I just kind of moved towards that direction, and he kind of slapped me away, and said, "What are you doing? You know you need to put a condom, like I was some dirty filth or something without a condom. Tiffany ran over and handed me a condom, and she was apologizing profusely to Trump, and she said that would never happen again. And she looked at me and scolded me for being kind of like a child, and that anytime you touched Donald Trump's penis, it needed to have a condom on, or glove, you know. And especially when it comes to performing oral sex.
So I apologized, and then I performed oral sex on him. And again, once he was done, he hopped up and that's the last I saw of him at that party. Some of the things that I noticed that were weird with him was that sometimes, before the parties, he would come over, Jeffrey Epstein and himself, would kind of banter back and forth. And Donald Trump was very racist. He said a lot of racist things. Like there were a lot of comments towards Mr. Epstein being Jewish, and comments like, "You Jewish bastard." And there were some words I didn't even understand -- something about the shape of Epstein's penis being directly related to his mole, and I'm not too familiar with the Jewish tradition, but I'm pretty sure that whatever he was saying wasn't very nice.
He also referred to people of Hispanic background, and he called them Spics. That was around the first time that the World Trade Center had gotten the bombing in the 90s, and he was talking about the towelheads, and how it would just be better off if we didn't let them in, or you know, basically get rid of every one, every single one that was already here. And that just made me really uncomfortable; really, really uncomfortable.
He also loved to call black people "Niggers," and Arabic people he called "Sandniggers."
The only time that he tried to give me some money was our last encounter together, where he acted out a rape fantasy. I was forced to give that money back, because Jeffrey Epstein paid us after the party. So he just gave me the money. I don't even know why. He gave it to me maybe to make me feel more cheap, because it was a rape fantasy to him, but I wasn't playing.
So there were those two times, and then there was after. And the next thing that happened was that Tiffany approached me and said he had a fantasy where he walked in on his maids basically making out, and that it was some type of fantasy for him. So at that point, I was like, "I don't want to be involved with anything that has to do with him." But she's like, "There's nothing that you'll have to do, just he's requesting you to be involved." So I felt like I didn't have a choice there. But his fantasy is basically, he's walking in on his two maids. I was the white maid, and there was a Spanish girl named Maria, who was the Hispanic maid. And we were making out, and he walks in, and he gets really angry, and threatens to call immigration on Maria if she doesn't come over and make things right, and give him a blow job. So while she is over there giving him a blow job, I am just supposed to look scared, like, "Oh no," you know, and cleaning up things, and pretending like I'm trying to go back to my job as a maid. And he was so rude to Maria -- I felt so bad for her -- and I guess it just didn't seem like a fantasy. And it's the weirdest fantasy, you know. He was threatening to call immigration on her.
So she wasn't even near going down to give him oral sex before he slapped her away, and said, "You need to put a condom on." And she's trying to say that she is so sorry, and he's like, "I can't even understand what you're saying," and "Speak English'. He made derogatory comments to her, and then he's like, "You know what? You don't know what you're doing. Have her come over and show you how it's done." And he said that I had to go over there or else he was going to call immigration on Maria. I didn't know if it was true or not. And he said that if I didn't show her how to perform oral sex on him, then he was going to call immigration on her, and then get rid of us both.
You know, anything in relation to him getting off, or being satisfied, or happy, had to do with him being in power, extreme power. And it was always intimidating when he was like that. You didn't really know if it was true, or funny. It's like, if you refuse to play along, would he really call immigration on Maria? Would he really get rid of us both? And I didn't even want to know what that meant. You know -- it wasn't a game. We just felt like it wasn't a game.
The one night that I had the blonde wig on, he mentioned that I reminded him of his daughter. And actually, during the maid fantasy, I didn't have a blonde wig on. I was trying to stay away from blond wigs at the time. But he actually requested -- told -- Tiffany that he wanted me to wear it. Like anytime I had it on, and he'd see me, he would say, "Man, you look just like my daughter. And it wasn't like, "Oh, you remind me of my daughter." It was a sick, evil-like, "You remind me of my daughter." It was just this weird pleasure-sick-smile. Like, I don't even want to know what he was thinking about. I could imagine what he was thinking about.
After the parties would end, we were to report to Mr. Epstein, and basically tell him everything that happened, who and what they liked, and what they disliked, and if there were any requests or if there was talk about anything. That's when we told Mr. Epstein everything. And then he paid us, and we went home. And with me, you know, I would normally get taken to the airport to go back home.
The fact that Trump has a chance to be the next President makes me feel disgusting inside. I've always been proud to be an American, and I think we live in a beautiful country. But I just see him ruining everything. He's horrible. What he portrays on the outside isn't even that great, but people don't even know the half of it -- how evil, sick and twisted that man is.
I have a friend that's been my friend ever since the eighth grade. I confided in her, and she knows all about it. She knows everything. I mean, I destroyed everything from that trip. I couldn't risk my dad finding out. And now I think I'm old enough, but at that point, I didn't want to not be his little girl, you know. I didn't want to lose my dad.
Basically, I never kept proof of any of the trips. I never told my parents because, you know, there would be no good outcome of telling my parents. They would have grounded me, and I would have never been allowed out of the house. My father would have come unglued. I did tell a friend, my best friend, and she's still my best friend to this day. She knows everything. She knows it all.
I'm prepared to do whatever it takes to save the country that I believe that we have. I know what he does behind closed doors. And I'm willing to sacrifice my life to get our country back. And they're right about going in some type of positive direction, but this guy's not gonna take us anywhere positive.
You know, as far as my life changing by coming out with this information, I've thought long and hard about whether or not I should do it. And I've gone back and forth. But I think that the American people need to know what kind of man this person is. And if my life changes because of that, then so be it. But the American people need to know what they're dealing with.
If I had the chance to talk to Donald Trump, I would run the other way. I'm scared of him like I've never been scared of anything else in my entire life. I can't explain it to you, but the fear of him even being in the next room makes me have panic attacks.
The last encounter that I had with Donald Trump, Tiffany approached me about a rape scene that we're supposed to play out, and I didn't like the sound of that at all. But Tiffany promised, ensured me, that if I wasn't comfortable with something, we could stop. That she would be right there, and it wouldn't get out of hand; and it was just a fantasy, and it wasn't really gonna happen. Tiffany was always nice to me. I felt I trusted her. And I wouldn't always trust her, or do what she asked me to, but she was there.
And when he came in, he basically tied me to a bed with pantyhose. And they ties were so tight it hurt to even lay there. And I tried to say something, and his response was "Just shut up; shut up bitch." He was being really, really rough, and it just didn't seem like a fantasy. And I started to get scared. And he was basically ripping my clothes off, and I actually got really freaked out, and I told him, "I don't want to do this." I was screaming for Tiffany, and this was scaring her, and he's like, "Oh, you shut up, too." He just turned into this animal. It was a completely different person. It was like everyone in the room was scared of him and it was like I couldn't do anything about it. And he ripped off all my clothes, and he started to basically have sex with me. And I was screaming, because I never had sex before. It was my first time. And Tiffany was yelling at him too. She was saying that I was a virgin, and he told us to "Just shut the fuck up," and basically took my virginity while I was crying and telling him to stop, and just begging for him to stop. And Tiffany didn't know what else to do either. No one was there to help us, or me.
And so, he basically finishes it, and it didn't take that long at all. I mean, it felt like it was like five and a half hours; it seemed like an eternity. I don't even know how long it was, but he was done, and I was crying, and Tiffany was apologizing. She told me that she would never put me in that situation again. But he came over mad, because I was crying. And he said that I should be thankful that someone like Donald Trump took my virginity. Well, he didn't say "took my virginity." He said I should be glad that someone like Donald Trump popped my cherry and not some pimply little 14-year-old. And speaking to Tiffany, I asked, "What if I get pregnant"? I wasn't even talking to him. I didn't want to talk to him. I was talking to Tiffany. And he said, "Well, you'll get an abortion then, bitch." And then he just walked away. And then I told Tiffany that I needed to go home. And I never went back again.
I guess it's for you to decide. You know, I don't have any kids myself because I'm afraid to have kids, because who knows what kind of damage they can get into. But if you have a 13-year-old daughter, would you be okay with the person who's running our country doing that to your little girl? And I just want people to know. I have faith in our society that it will make the right choice.
He seemed to be taking great pleasure, and enjoyed the dominance and control he had over me. And the more I screamed, the more I got scared, the more he was enraged with power. And it was like he was just charged with it. It was scary.
My experience with Donald Trump has made it to where I can't be in a healthy relationship, I can't be in a relationship without without self-sabotaging it. I don't do well. I mean, I've been in a couple of relationships. I mean they're never of interest to me normally, but one man in particular was a wonderful man, and I couldn't even control myself from self-sabotaging. It was like I had to get him out of my life, and I don't even know why. It was like, anytime anyone loves me I don't feel worth it. I don't even know how to explain it. Like I can be friends, I can have acquaintances with guys, but anytime it's someone who expresses anything else besides that, I can't take any pleasure in it. Whether I mean to or not, it's like I hurt their feelings just so they'll never talk to me again. And make sure that it's not ever a possibility.
Donald Trump destroyed my feeling of self-worth, and my self-esteem, when it just bloomed. It hadn't even had a chance to experience anything.
I have only spoken to to one therapist about, this just recently actually. For a long time I just really tried to forget about it. I tried very hard. But I've been to counseling for other things. I went to counseling for the previous relationship that I was sabotaging. And my counselor said, "Something has happened to you, and you need to deal with that." And I was like, "Hmm." He knew that there was something that had happened where I was self-sabotaging, or sabotaging these relationships. But he said that it was my responsibility to deal with it.
Donald Trump has just destroyed my self-esteem. And I feel like it's destroyed part of my life. The only healthy relationship I could have had, I completely demolished it. And I love to choose the dysfunctional ones that I know I can just push away. After what happened with Donald Trump, I can't trust a man ever again. And thinking about it just makes me sick to my stomach. So when something so traumatic happens to someone who's so young, you never ever really get over it.

Here’s Everything We Know So Far About the ‘Katie Johnson’ Allegations Against Trump — It’s Serious and MUST Be Dealt With. This gets tricky, but it doesn't sound out of character for Trump OR Epstein.

My editor says I should put this disclaimer at the end, but I’m going to come right out front with it, just so you know this isn’t clickbait. I have been reporting on Trump since before he was ever president, and nothing that is “alleged” here doesn’t line up with other circumstances he himself has described as having done.
None of this has yet been proven in court.
But the severity of the allegations notwithstanding, Trump is a proud misogynist, and the myriad pictures of him leering at his own teenage daughter as she sat on his lap, later to say that if he weren’t her father, he might be dating her, make everything in this viral story seem like it holds water.
Basically, what we have now is the story of an anonymous accuser who has gone variously by Jane Doe and now Katie Johnson. A post featuring a case filed against Trump in 2016 by an anonymous woman and Jeffrey Epstein, the pedophile who died under mysterious circumstances in prison before he could be forced to testify about who had accompanied him on a plethora of “sex trips” to a private island of his, has been making the rounds since the release of a slew of documents related to the Epstein case were released recently.
The case alleged that she had been held by the men as a “sex slave” in 1994, when she was 13.
It says that she was forced to “perform lesbian sex acts” against her will.
It basically says everything that always came to your mind whenever you thought about Jeffrey Epstein, or Ivanka on Trump’s lap.
The April 2016 filing — coincidentally right around the time that Trump was being accused of his affairs with Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, during the election — was dismissed by a judge on lack of merit. The case was refiled in June, then again in September of that same year.
At the time of the filing, Trump’s then-lawyer, Alan Garten, told Politico that the charges were “categorically untrue,” though the disappearance of Ms. Doe/Johnson certainly raises some doubts. She hasn’t been heard from since she dropped the last case she filed due to death threats.
“It is completely frivolous. It is baseless. It is irresponsible. I won’t even discuss the merits because it gives it credibility that it doesn’t deserve,” said Garten. That ALSO sounds a lot like what his lawyers were saying about Stormy and Karen — that they wouldn’t even dignify it with a response. Trump’s sentencing in the hush money case involving those two is scheduled for September.
Although Epstein died awaiting trial for his 2019 case of sex trafficking, his grooming partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, was convicted and is serving a 20-year sentence.
Among the things released with the Epstein documents recently were a trove of pictures of Trump and Epstein together, both on his plane and on the island, and even at Mar-a-Lago.

Y'all know now about Trump's rape of 13-year-old Katie Johnson. This is how people got the details, not only about Trump's rape of Johnson, but about the relationship between 'pedo bros' Trump and Jeffrey Epstein -- and their secret lives as sexual predators and child rapists.

Trump was accused of raping his ex-wife Ivana as well as a 13-year-old girl. Both cases went to court. People who discussed the cases were threatened. https://theglobeandmail.com/amp/opinion ... ssion=trueIn July, 2015, shortly after Mr. Trump declared his candidacy, the Daily Beast attempted to report on court documents stating that Mr. Trump had raped his ex-wife, Ivana. The inquiry into the case prompted a response from Mr. Cohen that mirrors the threat to Ms. Daniels: "I'm warning you, tread very fucking lightly, because what I'm going to do to you is going to be fucking disgusting," Mr. Cohen told the Daily Beast reporter. "You write a story that has Mr. Trump's name in it, with the word 'rape,' and I'm going to mess your life up ... for as long as you're on this frickin' planet ..."
Few media outlets reported on the allegation after that, and the media were similarly timid in reporting other allegations of sexual assault -- most notably, that of a 12-year-old girl who said in a lawsuit that Mr. Trump raped her in 1994 while in the company of billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, a friend of Mr. Trump's who was an alleged trafficker of underage girls. In her affidavit, the alleged victim claims that Mr. Trump told her to stay silent since he was capable of having her whole family killed, and noted that another victim, a 12-year-old named Maria, had disappeared.
On Nov. 2, 2016 -- a few days before the election -- that accuser and her lawyer, Lisa Bloom, were scheduled to hold a press conference. According to Ms. Bloom, the press conference was abruptly cancelled due to intense threats to their safety, including a bomb threat. Two days later, the accuser dropped her lawsuit.

16. The third and final sexual assault by the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, on the Plaintiff, Kati Johnson, took place after Plaintiff Johnson had been brutally and savagely raped by Defendant Trump. While receiving another full body massage from Plaintiff Johnson, while in the nude, Defendant Epstein became so enraged after finding out that Defendant Trump had been the one to take Plaintiff Johnson's virginity, that Defendant Epstein also violently raped Plaintiff Johnson. After forcing Plaintiff Johnson to disrobe into her bra and panties, while receiving a massage from the Plaintiff, Defendant Epstein attempted to enter Plaintiff Johnson's anal cavity with his erect penis while trying to restrain her. Plaintiff Johnson attempted to push Defendant Epstein away, at which time Defendant Epstein attempted to enter Plaintiff Johnson's vagina with his erect penis. This attempt to brutally sodomize and rape Plaintiff Johnson by Defendant Epstein was finally repelled by Plaintiff Johnson but not before Defendant Epstein was able to achieve sexual orgasm. After perversely sodomizing and raping the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, attempted to strike her about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed at Plaintiff Johnson that he, Defendant Epstein, should have been the one who "took her cherry, not Mr. Trump", before she finally managed to break away from Defendant Epstein.
17. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was fully warned on more than one occasion by both Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, that were she ever to reveal any of the details of the sexual and physical abuse that she had suffered as a sex slave for Defendant Trump and Defendant Epstein, that Plaintiff Johnson and her family would be in mortal danger. Plaintiff Johnson was warned that this would mean certain death for herself and Plaintiff Johnson's family unless she remained silent forever on the exact details of the depraved and perverted sexual and physical abuse she had been forced to endure from the Defendants.
1 MATERIAL WITNESSES
18. Tiffany Doe, a former trusted employee of the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, has agreed to provide sworn testimony in this civil case and any other future civil or criminal proceedings, fully verifying the authenticity of the claims of the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson. Witness Tiffany Doe was employed by the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, for more than 10 years as a party planner for his underage sex parties. Despite being subject to constant terroristic threats by Defendants Epstein and Trump to never reveal the details of these underage sex parties at which scores of teenagers, and pre-teen girls were used as sex slaves by Defendant Epstein and Defendant Trump, witness Tiffany Doe refuses to be silent any longer. She has agreed to fully reveal the extent of the sexual perversion and physical cruelty that she personally witnessed at these parties by Defendants Epstein and Trump.
19. Material witness Tiffany Doe fully confirms all of Plaintiff Katie Johnson's allegations of physical and sexual abuse by Defendants Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein. Tiffany Doe was physically present at each of the four occasions of sexual abuse by Defendant Trump upon the person of Plaintiff Johnson, as it was her job to witness all of the sexual escapades of Defendant Epstein's guests at these underage sex parties and later reveal all of the sordid details directly to Defendant Epstein. Defendant Epstein also demanded that Tiffany Doe tell him personally everything she had overheard at these parties explaining to her that "knowledge was king" in the financial world. As a result of these underage sex parties, Defendant Epstein was able to accumulate inside business knowledge that he otherwise would never have been privy to in order to amass his huge personal fortune.
20. Material witness Tiffany Doe will testify that she was also present or had direct knowledge of each of the three instances on which Defendant Jeffrey E. Epstein physically and sexually abused the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson. Tiffany Doe will testify to the fact that the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was extremely fortunate to have survived all of the physical and sexual horrors inflicted upon her by Defendants Epstein and Trump.
21. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, asks the court for relief against the Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, in the amount of $100,000,000.00 (One Hundred Million Dollars) as a result of the Defendants aforementioned acts upon which they willfully and maliciously violated the Civil Rights of the Plaintiff as stated in 18 U.S.C ; 2241 by sexually and physically abusing the then 13 year old Plaintiff Johnson under threat of harm to her and her family, and 42 U.S.C ; 1985 by the Defendants conspiring to deny the Civil Rights of Plaintiff Johnson by making her their sex slave.

4. The Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, each reside in the State of New York.
FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
5. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, alleges that the Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, did willfully and with extreme malice violate her Civil Rights under 18 U.S.C ; 2241 by sexually and physically abusing Plaintiff Johnson by forcing her to engage in various perverted and depraved sex acts by threatening physical harm to Plaintiff Johnson and also her family.
6. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, alleges that the Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, also did willfully and with extreme malice violate her Civil Rights under 42 U.S.C.; 1985 by conspiring to deny Plaintiff Johnson her Civil Rights by making her their sex slave.
7. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, alleges she was subject to extreme sexual and physical abuse by the Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, including forcible rape during a four month time span covering the months of June-September 1994 when Plaintiff Johnson was still only a minor of age 13.
8. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, alleges she was enticed by promises of money and a modeling career to attend a series of underage sex parties held at the New York City residence of Defendant Jeffrey E. Epstein and attended by Defendant Donald J. Trump.
9. On the first occasion involving the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was forced to manually stimulate Defendant Trump with the use of her hand upon Defendant Trump's erect penis until he reached sexual orgasm.
10. On the second occasion involving the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was forced to orally copulate Defendant Trump by placing her mouth upon Defendant Trump's erect penis until he reached sexual orgasm.
11. On the third occasion involving the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson was forced to engage in an unnatural lesbian sex act with her fellow minor and sex slave, Maria Doe age 12, for the sexual enjoyment of Defendant Trump. After this sex act, both minors were forced to orally copulate Defendant Trump by placing their mouths Simultaneously on his erect penis until he achieved sexual orgasm. After zipping up his pants, Defendant Trump physically pushed both minors away while angrily berating them for the "poor" quality of their sexual performance.
12. On the fourth and final sexual encounter with the Defendant, Donald J. Trump, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was tied to a bed by Defendant Trump who then proceeded to forcibly rape Plaintiff Johnson. During the course of this savage sexual attack, Plaintiff Johnson loudly pleaded with Defendant Trump to "please wear a condom". Defendant Trump responded by violently striking Plaintiff Johnson in the face with his open hand and screaming that "he would do whatever he wanted" as he refused to wear protection. After achieving sexual orgasm, the Defendant, Donald J. Trump put his suit back on and when the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, in tears asked Defendant Trump what would happen if he had impregnated her, Defendant Trump grabbed his wallet and threw some money at her and screamed that she should use the money "to get a fucking abortion".
13. On the first occasion involving the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was forced to disrobe into her bra and panties and to give a full body massage to Defendant Epstein while he was completely naked. During the massage, Defendant Epstein phYSically forced Plaintiff Johnson to touch his erect penis with her bare hands and to clean up his ejaculated semen after he achieved sexual orgasm.
14. On the second occasion involving the Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson was again forced to disrobe into her bra and panties while giving Defendant Epstein a full body massage while he was completely naked. The Defendant, Donald J. Trump, was also present as he was getting his own massage from another minor, Jane Doe, age 13. Defendant Epstein forced Plaintiff Johnson to touch his erect penis by physically placing her bare hands upon his sex organ and again forced Plaintiff Johnson to clean up his ejaculated semen after he achieved sexual orgasm.
5. Shortly after this sexual assault by the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, on the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, Plaintiff Johnson was still present while the two Defendants were arguing over who would be the one to take Plaintiff Johnson's virginity. The Defendant, Donald J. Trump, was clearly heard referring to Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, as a "Jew Bastard" as he yelled at Defendant Epstein, that clearly, he, Defendant Trump, should be the lucky one to "pop the cherry" of Plaintiff Johnson.
16. The third and final sexual assault by the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, on the Plaintiff, Kati Johnson, took place after Plaintiff Johnson had been brutally and savagely raped by Defendant Trump. While receiving another full body massage from Plaintiff Johnson, while in the nude, Defendant Epstein became so enraged after finding out that Defendant Trump had been the one to take Plaintiff Johnson's virginity, that Defendant Epstein also violently raped Plaintiff Johnson. After forcing Plaintiff Johnson to disrobe into her bra and panties, while receiving a massage from the Plaintiff, Defendant Epstein attempted to enter Plaintiff Johnson's anal cavity with his erect penis while trying to restrain her. Plaintiff Johnson attempted to push Defendant Epstein away, at which time Defendant Epstein attempted to enter Plaintiff Johnson's vagina with his erect penis. This attempt to brutally sodomize and rape Plaintiff Johnson by Defendant Epstein was finally repelled by Plaintiff Johnson but not before Defendant Epstein was able to achieve sexual orgasm. After perversely sodomizing and raping the Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, the Defendant, Jeffrey E. Epstein, attempted to strike her about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed at Plaintiff Johnson that he, Defendant Epstein, should have been the one who "took her cherry, not Mr. Trump", before she finally managed to break away from Defendant Epstein.
17. The Plaintiff, Katie Johnson, was fully warned on more than one occasion by both Defendants, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, that were she ever to reveal any of the details of the sexual and physical abuse that she had suffered as a sex slave for Defendant Trump and Defendant Epstein, that Plaintiff Johnson and her family would be in mortal danger. Plaintiff Johnson was warned that this would mean certain death for herself and Plaintiff Johnson's family unless she remained silent forever on the exact details of the depraved and perverted sexual and physical abuse she had been forced to endure from the Defendants.

KATIE JOHNSON
By _______________
Plaintiff Katie Johnson
Appearing In Pro Per
“I loudly pleaded with Trump to stop,” she said in the lawsuit about being raped. “Trump responded to my pleas by violently striking me in the face with his open hand and screaming that he could do whatever he wanted.”
Brown continues:
Johnson said that Epstein invited her to a series of ‘underage sex parties’ at his New York mansion where she met Trump. Enticed by promises of money and modeling opportunities, Johnson said she was forced to have sex with Trump several times, including once with another girl, twelve years old, whom she labeled ‘Marie Doe.’
Trump demanded oral sex, the lawsuit said, and afterward he “pushed both minors away while angrily berating them for the ‘poor’ quality of the sexual performance,” according to the lawsuit, filed April 26 in U.S. District Court in Central California.
Afterward, when Epstein learned that Trump had taken Johnson’s virginity, Epstein allegedly ‘attempted to strike her about the head with his closed fists,’ angry he had not been the one to take her virginity. Johnson claimed that both men threatened to harm her, and her family if she ever revealed what had happened.
The lawsuit states that Trump did not take part in Epstein’s orgies but liked to watch, often while the thirteen-year-old “Kate Johnson” gave him a hand job.
It appears Trump was able to quash the lawsuit by buying her silence. She has since disappeared.
In 2008, Alex Acosta, who at the time was the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, negotiated a plea deal for Epstein. The deal granted immunity from all federal criminal charges to Epstein, four named co-conspirators and any unnamed “potential co-conspirators.” The agreement shut down the FBI probe into whether there were more victims and other powerful figures who took part in Epstein’s sex crimes. It halted the investigation and sealed the indictment. Trump, in what many consider an act of gratitude, appointed Acosta as Secretary of Labor in his first term.
Trump contemplated pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell after she was arrested in July 2020, fearing she would reveal details of his decades-long friendship with Epstein, according to Trump biographer Michael Wolff. In July 2022, Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
“Jeffrey Epstein’s closest relationship in life was with Donald Trump…these were two guys joined at the hip for a good 15 years. They did everything together,” Wolff told host Joanna Coles on The Daily Beast Podcast. “And this is from sharing, pursuing women, hunting women, sharing at least one girlfriend for at least a year in this kind of rich-guy relationship with each other’s planes, to Epstein advising Trump on how to cheat on his taxes.”
The legal anomalies, including the disappearance of massive amounts of evidence incriminating Epstein, saw Epstein avoid federal sex-trafficking charges in 2007, when his attorneys negotiated the secret plea deal with Acosta. He was able to plead guilty to lesser state charges of soliciting a minor for prostitution.
The prominent men accused of engaging in Epstein’s carnival of pedophilia, including Epstein’s attorney Dershowitz, viciously threaten anyone who seeks to expose them. Dershowitz, for example, claims that an investigation which he has refused to make public, by the former FBI director Louis Freeh, proves he had never had sex with Epstein’s victim Virginia Giuffre, who was trafficked at 17 to Prince Andrew. Giuffre, one of the few victims to publicly take on her abusers, said she was “passed around like a platter of fruit” among Epstein and Maxwell’s friends, until at the age of 19 when she escaped. She “committed suicide” in April 2025. Dershowitz has sent repeated threats to Brown and her editors at The Miami Herald.
Brown continues:
[Dershowitz] kept referring to information that was contained in sealed documents. He accused the newspaper of not reporting “facts” that he said were in those sealed documents. The truth is, I tried to explain, newspapers just can’t write about things because Alan Dershowitz says they exist. We need to see them. We need to verify them. Then, because I said “show me the material,” he publicly accused me of committing a criminal act by asking him to produce documents that were under court seal.
This is the way Dershowitz operates.
What disturbs me the most about Dershowitz is the way that the media, with few exceptions, fails to critically challenge him. Journalists fact-checked Donald Trump and others in his administration almost every day, yet, for the most part, the media seems to give Dershowitz a pass on the Epstein story.
In 2015, when Giuffre’s allegations first became public, Dershowitz went on every television program imaginable swearing, among other things, that Epstein’s plane logs would exonerate him. “How do you know that?” he was asked.
He replied that he was never on Epstein’s plane during the time that Virginia was involved with Epstein.
But if the media had checked, they could have learned that he was indeed a passenger on the plane during that time period, according to the logs.
Then he testified, in a sworn deposition, that he never went on any plane trips without his wife. But he was listed on those passage manifests as traveling multiple times without his wife. During at least one trip, he was on the plane with a model named Tatiana.
Epstein donated money to Harvard and was made a visiting fellow in Harvard’s Department of Psychology, although he had no academic qualifications in the field. He was given a key card and pass code, as well as an office in the building that housed Harvard’s Program for Evolutionary Dynamics. He referred to himself in his press releases as “Science Philanthropist Jeffrey Epstein,” “Education activist Jeffrey Epstein,” “Evolutionary Jeffrey Epstein,” “Science patron Jeffrey Epstein” and “Maverick hedge funder Jeffrey Epstein.”
Epstein, replicating the pretensions and vacuity of the characters who were parodied in the “Dinner with Trimalchio” chapter of Satyricon, organized elaborate dinner gatherings for his billionaire friends, including Elon Musk, Salar Kamangar and Jeff Bezos. He dreamed up bizarre schemes of social engineering, including a plan to seed the human species with his own DNA by creating a baby compound at his sprawling ranch in New Mexico.
“Epstein was also obsessed with cryonics, the transhumanist philosophy whose followers believe that people can be replicated or brought back to life after they are frozen,” Brown writes. “Epstein apparently told some of the members of his scientific circle that he wanted to inseminate women with his sperm for them to give birth to his babies, and that he wanted his head and his penis frozen.”
The Epstein story is a window into the moral bankruptcy, hedonism and greed of the ruling class. This crosses political lines. It is the common denominator between Democratic politicians, such as Bill Clinton, philanthropists, such as Bill Gates, the billionaire class, and Trump. They are one class of predators and grifters. It is not only girls and women they exploit, but all of us.

Doe v. Trump (2016) (case 1:16-cv-07673-RA, United States District Court Southern District of New York, filed October 3, 2016).
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
JANE DOE, proceeding under a pseudonym,
Plaintiff,
v.
DONALD J. TRUMP and JEFFREY E. EPSTEIN,
Defendants.
Case No.: 1:16-cv-07673-RA
JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
COMPLAINT FOR RAPE, SEXUAL MISCONDUCT, CRIMINAL SEXUAL ACTS, SEXUAL ABUSE, FORCIBLE TOUCHING, ASSAULT, BATTERY, INTENTIONAL AND RECKLESS INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, DURESS, FALSE IMPRISONMENT, AND DEFAMATION.
Plaintiff Jane Doe, proceeding under a pseudonym, brings this action against Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, and alleges that:
PARTIES
1. Plaintiff is an individual residing in and a citizen of the State of California.
2. Upon information and belief, Defendants Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. E0pstein each reside in this District and are citizens of the State of New York.
JURISDICTION AND VENUE
3. Plaintiff is a citizen of the State of California for purposes of diversity jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1332.
4. Defendants are citizens of the State of New York for purposes of diversity jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1332.
5. This Court has original subject matter jurisdiction with respect to this action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332 as there exists complete diversity of citizenship between Plaintiff and Defendants and the amount in controversy exceeds Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), exclusive of interest and costs.
6. Defendants are each subject to the jurisdiction of this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332 with proper venue pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391 as both defendants are residents of and/or are domiciled in this district and the events giving rise to the claims occurred in this district.
RAPE, SEXUAL MISCONDUCT, CRIMINAL SEXUAL ACTS, SEXUAL ABUSE, FORCIBLE TOUCHING, ASSAULT, BATTERY, INTENTIONAL AND RECKLESS INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, DURESS, AND FALSE IMPRISONMENT
7. Plaintiff was subject to acts of rape, sexual misconduct, criminal sexual acts, sexual abuse, forcible touching, assault, battery, intentional and reckless infliction of emotional distress, duress, false imprisonment, and threats of death and/or serious bodily injury by the Defendants that took place at several parties during the summer months of 1994. The parties were held by Defendant Epstein at a New York City residence that was being used by Defendant Epstein at 9 E. 71st St. in Manhattan. During this period, Plaintiff was a minor of age 13 and was legally incapable under New York law of consenting to sexual intercourse and the other sexual contacts detailed herein. NY Penal L § 130.05(3)(a). The rapes in the first, second, and third degrees; sexual misconduct; criminal sexual acts in the first, second, and third degrees; sexual abuse in the first, second, and third degrees; and forcible touching (and, on information and belief, predatory sexual assault) detailed herein are unlawful under New York law, e.g., NY Penal L § 130.20-130.52, and 130.55-130.65 (and, on information and belief, 130.95) and constitute the torts of, inter alia, assault, battery, false imprisonment, and intentional or reckless infliction of emotional distress, including threats of force and serious bodily harm, under New York law. In addition, 18 U.S. Code § 2255 provides Plaintiff with a civil remedy for personal injuries because Plaintiff, while a minor, was a victim of violations of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1591, 2421, 2422(b), and 2423(a) and she suffered personal injury as a result of such violations. Declaration of Plaintiff Jane Doe, Exhibit A hereto; Declaration of Tiffany Doe, Exhibit B hereto; Declaration of Joan Doe, Exhibit C hereto; Jane Doe, Tiffany Doe, and Joan Doe are each pseudonyms as each woman wishes anonymity. Tiffany Doe, a witness, was an employee of Defendant Epstein. Exh. B. Joan Doe, a witness, was a childhood classmate of Plaintiff who, in the 1994-95 school year, was told by Plaintiff that Plaintiff was subject to sexual contact by the Defendants at parties in New York City during the summer of 1994. Exh. C.
8. Courts have discretion to allow proceeding anonymously where the need for privacy outweighs the public’s interest in knowing their identity and any prejudice to the defendants. Sealed Plaintiff v. Sealed Defendant, 537 F.3d 185, 189 (2d Cir. 2008). This litigation involves matters that are highly sensitive and of a personal nature, and identification of Plaintiff would pose a risk of retaliatory physical harm to her and to others. Exh. A. All of the ten factors that the Second Circuit articulated as relevant to this analysis favor anonymity, especially factors 1-4, 7, and 10 (e.g., factors one and two: “whether the litigation involves matters that are ‘highly sensitive and [of a] personal nature,’” and “’whether identification poses a risk of retaliatory physical or mental harm to the ... party [seeking to proceed anonymously] or even more critically, to innocent non-parties’”.), or are neutral with respect to anonymity. Protecting Plaintiff’s anonymity is also appropriate as she is a rape victim.
9. Plaintiff was enticed by promises of money and a modeling career to attend a series of parties, with other similarly situated minor females, held at a New York City residence that was being used by Defendant Jeffrey Epstein. At least four of the parties were attended by Defendant Trump. Exhs. A and B. On information and belief, by this time in 1994, Defendant Trump had known Defendant Epstein for seven years (New York, 10/28/02, “’I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,’' Trump booms from a speakerphone. ‘He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it -- Jeffrey enjoys his social life.’”), and knew that Plaintiff was then just 13 years old. Exhs. A and B.
10. Defendant Trump initiated sexual contact with Plaintiff at four different parties. On the fourth and final sexual encounter with Defendant Trump, Defendant Trump tied Plaintiff to a bed, exposed himself to Plaintiff, and then proceeded to forcibly rape Plaintiff. During the course of this savage sexual attack, Plaintiff loudly pleaded with Defendant Trump to stop but with no effect. Defendant Trump responded to Plaintiff’s pleas by violently striking Plaintiff in the face with his open hand and screaming that he would do whatever he wanted. Exhs. A and B.
11. Immediately following this rape, Defendant Trump threatened Plaintiff that, were she ever to reveal any of the details of the sexual and physical abuse of her by Defendant Trump, Plaintiff and her family would be physically harmed if not killed. Exhs. A and B.
12. Defendant Epstein had sexual contact with Plaintiff at two of the parties. The second sexual encounter with Defendant Epstein took place after Plaintiff had been raped by Defendant Trump. Defendant Epstein forced himself upon Plaintiff and proceeded to rape her anally and vaginally despite her loud pleas to stop. Defendant Epstein then attempted to strike Plaintiff about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed at Plaintiff that he, Defendant Epstein, rather than Defendant Trump, should have been the one who took Plaintiff’s virginity, before Plaintiff finally managed to break away from Defendant Epstein. Exhs. A and B.
13. The threats of violence against Plaintiff and her family continued, this time from Defendant Epstein, who again reiterated that Plaintiff was not to reveal any of the details of his sexual and physical abuse of her or else, specifically, Plaintiff and her family would be seriously physically harmed, if not killed. Exhs. A and B.
14. While still under threats of physical harm by coming forward and having no reason to believe that the threats have ever been lifted or would ever be lifted, Plaintiff, who has suffered from stress, emotional distress, mental pain and suffering, among other problems, ever since the assaults, was subjected to daily painful reminders of the horrific acts of one of the perpetrators, Defendant Trump, via mass media coverage of him starting on or about June 16, 2015 that, over a short period of time, became continuous and unavoidable. Exh. A.
15. As a direct and proximate result of the sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon her, Plaintiff has suffered stress, emotional distress, and mental pain and suffering, as well as adverse physical consequences.
16. As a direct and proximate result of the sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon her, Plaintiff has suffered physical pain and suffering.
17. As a direct and proximate result of the sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon her, Plaintiff has been subjected to public scorn, hatred, and ridicule and has suffered threats against her life and physical safety.
18. As a direct and proximate result of the sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon her, Plaintiff has incurred special damages, including medical and legal expenses.
19. The sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon Plaintiff were intentional acts.
20. The conduct of Defendants demonstrates willful, reckless and intentional conduct that raises a conscious indifference to consequences.
21. At the appropriate time in this litigation, Plaintiff shall amend her complaint to assert a claim for punitive damages against Defendants in order to punish Defendants for their actions and to deter Defendants from repeating their conduct.
TOLLING OF STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS
22. Any statute of limitations applicable to rape, sexual misconduct, criminal sexual acts, sexual abuse, forcible touching, assault, battery, intentional and reckless infliction of emotional distress, false imprisonment of a minor, if any, is tolled owing to the continuous and active duress imposed upon Plaintiff by Defendants that effectively robbed Plaintiff of her free will to commence legal action until the present time. Cullen v. Margiotta, 811 F.2d 698, 722 (2nd Cir.1987); Ross v. United States, 574 F. Supp. 536, 542 (S.D.N.Y. 1983). More particularly, Plaintiff was unrelentingly threatened by each Defendant that, were she ever to reveal any of the details of the sexual and physical abuse caused to her by Defendants, Plaintiff and her family would be physically harmed if not killed. The duress has not terminated and the fear has not subsided. The duress is an element of or inherent in the underlying causes of action complained of herein. The duress and coercion exerted by Defendants has been such as to have actually deprived Plaintiff of her freedom of will to institute suit earlier in time, and it rose to such a level that a person of reasonable firmness in Plaintiff's situation would have been unable to resist. Exhs. A and B.
23. Both Defendants let Plaintiff know that each was a very wealthy, powerful man and indicated that they had the power, ability and means to carry out their threats. Indeed, Defendant Trump stated that Plaintiff shouldn’t ever say anything if she didn’t want to disappear like Maria, a 12-year-old female that was forced to be involved in the third incident with Defendant Trump and that Plaintiff had not seen since that third incident, and that he was capable of having her whole family killed. Exhs. A and B.
24. The duress had prevented Plaintiff from starting litigation before this year. However, as soon as she surfaced, she received threats. More specifically, shortly after her first complaint was filed in California on April 26, 2016, she started receiving threatening phone calls on her cell phone. Exh. A.
25. Defendants are equitably estopped from arguing that any statute of limitations has not been tolled as Defendants wrongfully forced Plaintiff to refrain from timely commencing this action by threats, duress, and other misconduct. Exhs. A and B. Zimmerman v. Poly Prep Country Day School, ___ F.Supp.2d ___ (2012), 2012 WL 3683393; General Stencils, Inc. v. Chippa, 18 N.Y.2d 125, 127 (1966)(“a wrongdoer should not be able to take refuge behind the shield of his own wrongdoing.”).
26. Moreover, this action has been brought before the facts giving rise to the estoppel have ceased to be operational (i.e., while still under threats of physical harm by coming forward and having no reason to believe that the threats have ever been lifted or would ever be lifted) and since Plaintiff has decided to seek redress at this time, Plaintiff seeks an order of protection in favor of Plaintiff and all associated with her so as to protect them from harm and harassment from Defendants and their agents and associates. Exh. A.
DEFAMATION
27. On information and belief, on or about April 28, 2016, Defendant Trump provided the following statement to American Media, Inc. and/or Radar Online LLC for publication on at least their website RadarOnline.com regarding Plaintiff’s complaint ED CV 16- 797-DMG (KSx) filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California: “The allegations are not only categorically false, but disgusting at the highest level and clearly framed to solicit media attention or, perhaps, are simply politically motivated. There is absolutely no merit to these allegations. Period.” The statement provided for publication by Defendant Trump was published by said website and has been republished elsewhere in whole or in part numerous times (and similar statements of an attorney for Defendant Trump were also published, including on September 22, 2016 by Courthouse News Service). The statements provided for publication by Defendant Trump and his agent and that were published by said websites are false as they pertain to Plaintiff.
28. The published statements are libelous on their face, and clearly expose Plaintiff to hatred, contempt, ridicule and obloquy.
29. As a proximate result of the above-described publications, Plaintiff has suffered loss of her reputation, shame, mortification, and injury to her feelings, all to her damage in an amount to be established by proof at trial.
30. The above-described publications were not privileged because they were published by Defendant Trump and his agent with malice, hatred and ill will toward Plaintiff and the desire to injure her.
31. As a direct and proximate result of Defendant Trump’s defamation of Plaintiff, Plaintiff has been subjected to public scorn, hatred, and ridicule and has suffered other injury.
PRAYER FOR RELIEF
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays for judgment against Defendants and for the following relief:
A. That judgment be entered against Defendants for special damages, compensatory damages, and punitive damages in an amount which shall be shown to be reasonable and just by the evidence and in excess of Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), exclusive of interests and costs;
B. That all costs of this action be assessed against Defendants, including all reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and expenses of this action;
C. That an order of protection in favor of Plaintiff and all associated with her be issued so as to protect them from harm and harassment from Defendants and their agents and associates; and
D. Such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper.
JURY DEMAND
Plaintiff demands a trial by jury of all issues properly triable by jury in this action.

DECLARATION IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF'S REQUEST FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER
I, Jane Doe, the Plaintiff in this matter proceeding under a pseudonym, state as follows:
1. I am a competent adult over 18 years of age able to testify as to personal knowledge. The facts in this declaration are true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief, and I am competent to testify to them if called upon to do so.
2. I was subject to extreme sexual and physical abuse by the Defendants, including forcible rape, that took place at several parties of Defendant Epstein during the summer of 1994 in New York City at a residence used by Defendant Epstein. During this period, I was 13 years old.
3. More particularly, I traveled by bus to New York City in June 1994 in the hope of starting a modeling career. I went to several modeling agencies but was told that I needed to put together a modeling portfolio before I would be considered. I then went to the Port Authority in New York City to start to make my way back home. There I met a woman who introduced herself to me as Tiffany. She told me about the parties and said that, if I would join her at the parties, I would be introduced to people who could get me into the modeling profession. Tiffany also told me I would be paid for attending.
4. The parties were held at a New York City residence that was being used by Defendant Jeffrey Epstein. Each of the parties had other minor females and a number of guests of Mr. Epstein, including Defendant Donald Trump at four of the parties I attended. I understood that both Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein knew that I was 13 years old.
5. Defendant Trump had sexual contact with me at four different parties in the summer of 1994. On the fourth and final sexual encounter with Defendant Trump, Defendant Trump tied me to a bed, exposed himself to me, and then proceeded to forcibly rape me. During the course of this savage sexual attack, I loudly pleaded with Defendant Trump to stop but he did not. Defendant Trump responded to my pleas by violently striking me in the face with his open hand and screaming that he would do whatever he wanted.
6. Immediately following this rape, Defendant Trump threatened me that, were I ever to reveal any of the details of Defendant Trump's sexual and physical abuse of me, my family and I would be physically harmed if not killed.
7. Defendant Epstein had sexual contact with me at two of the parties that summer. On the second occasion involving Defendant Epstein, Defendant Epstein forced himself upon me and proceeded to rape me anally and vaginally despite my loud pleas to stop. Defendant Epstein then attempted to strike me about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed at me that he, Defendant Epstein, should have been the one who took my virginity, not Defendant Trump, before I finally managed to break away from Defendant Epstein.
8. Immediately following this rape, just like Defendant Trump, Defendant Epstein threatened me not to ever reveal any of the details of Defendant Epstein's sexual and physical abuse of me or else my family and I would be physically harmed if not killed.
9. Both Defendants had let me know that each was a very wealthy, powerful man and indicated that they had the power, ability and means to carry out their threats. Indeed, Defendant Trump stated that I shouldn't ever say anything if I didn't want to disappear like Maria, a 12-year-old female that was forced to be involved in the third incident with Defendant Trump and that I had not seen since that third incident, and that he was capable of having my whole family killed.
10. The duress imposed on me by Defendants not to ever reveal any of the details of the sexual and physical abuse caused to me by Defendants has not terminated and the fear it has instilled in me has not subsided. Unfortunately, making matters worse for me, I was subjected to daily painful reminders of the horrific acts of Defendant Trump via mass media coverage of him starting last summer that, over a short period of time, became continuous and unavoidable.
11. The duress had prevented me from starting litigation before this year. However, as soon as I surfaced, I received threats. More specifically, shortly after my first complaint was filed in California on April 26, 2016, I started receiving threatening phone calls on a cell phone I then owned. The calls were never for more than 20 seconds or so before they hung up and they were always from a blocked or unavailable phone number according to my caller ID feature. Since I changed phone numbers, the threatening calls have completely stopped.
12. This litigation involves matters that are highly sensitive and of a personal nature, and I believe that identification of me would pose a risk of retaliatory physical harm to me and to others.
13. I have no reason to believe that the Defendants' threats have ever been lifted or will ever be lifted and so I request that the Court issue an order protecting me and my family from harm and harassment by the Defendants.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

DECLARATION IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF'S REQUEST FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER
I, Tiffany Doe, a pseudonym, state as follows:
1. I am a competent adult over 18 years of age able to\testify as to personal knowledge. The facts in this declaration are true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief, and I am competent to testify to them if called upon to do so.
2. I originally met Jeffrey E. Epstein in New York City in 1990 when I was the age of 22. I attended a series of parties in that same year of 1990 where I was paid to entertain various guests of Mr. Epstein.
3. In the year 1991, I was promoted to the occupation of party planner in which my duties were to get attractive adolescent women to attend these parties.
4. I was hired by and paid directly by Mr. Epstein from the years of 1991-2000 to attract adolescent women to attend these parties, most of which were held at what is known as the Wexner Mansion located at 9 E. 71st St. in New York City.
5. In June, 1994 while performing my duties as a recruiter of adolescent women to attend Mr. Epstein's parties, I met a 13-year-old adolescent woman, the Plaintiff in this matter, at the Port Authority in New York City who said that she had come to New York City in the hope of starting a modeling career.
6. I persuaded the Plaintiff to attend a series of parties of Mr. Epstein that took place during the summer of 1994. I told her that, if she would join me at the parties, she would be introduced to people who could get her into the modeling profession and she would be paid for attending.
7. It was at these series of parties that I personally witnessed the Plaintiff being forced to perform various sexual acts with Donald J. Trump and Mr. Epstein. Both Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein were advised that she was 13 years old.
8. I personally witnessed four sexual encounters that the Plaintiff was forced to have with Mr. Trump during this period, including the fourth of these encounters where Mr. Trump forcibly raped her despite her pleas to stop.
9. I personally witnessed the one occasion where Mr. Trump forced the Plaintiff and a 12-year-old female named Maria perform oral sex on Mr. Trump and witnessed his physical abuse of both minors when they finished the act.
10. I personally witnessed or was made immediately aware of the two occasions where my boss Mr. Epstein attempted to rape and sodomize the Plaintiff. I personally witnessed Mr. Epstein sexually and physically abuse other minor females even younger than her.
11. It was my job to personally witness and supervise encounters between the underage girls that Mr. Epstein hired and his guests.
12. I personally witnessed Mr. Trump physically threaten the life and well-being of the Plaintiff if she ever revealed any details of the physical and sexual abuse suffered by her at the hands of Mr. Trump.
13. I personally witnessed Mr. Epstein physically threaten the life and well-being of the Plaintiff if she ever revealed the details of the physical and sexual abuse she suffered at the hands of Mr. Epstein or any of his guests.
14. I personally witnessed Defendant Trump telling the Plaintiff that she shouldn't ever say anything if she didn't want to disappear like the 12-year-old female Maria, and that he was capable of having her whole family killed.
15. After leaving the employment of Mr. Epstein in the year 2000, I was personally threatened by Mr. Epstein that I would be killed and my family killed as well if I ever disclosed any of the physical and sexual abuse of minor females that I had personally witnessed by Mr. Epstein or any of his guests.
16. I am coming forward to swear to the truthfulness of the physical and sexual abuse that I personally witnessed of minor females at the hands of Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein, including the Plaintiff, during the time of my employment from the years of 1990-2000 for Mr. Epstein. I swear to these facts under penalty of perjury even though I fully understand that the life of myself and my family is now in grave danger.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
JANE DOE, proceeding under a pseudonym,
Plaintiff,
v.
DONALD J. TRUMP and JEFFREY E. EPSTEIN,
Defendants.
Case No.: 1:16-cv-07673-RA
JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
COMPLAINT FOR RAPE, SEXUAL MISCONDUCT, CRIMINAL SEXUAL ACTS, SEXUAL ABUSE, FORCIBLE TOUCHING, ASSAULT, BATTERY, INTENTIONAL AND RECKLESS INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, DURESS, FALSE IMPRISONMENT, AND DEFAMATION.
Plaintiff Jane Doe, proceeding under a pseudonym, brings this action against Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, and alleges that:
PARTIES
1. Plaintiff is an individual residing in and a citizen of the State of California.
2. Upon information and belief, Defendants Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. E0pstein each reside in this District and are citizens of the State of New York.
JURISDICTION AND VENUE
3. Plaintiff is a citizen of the State of California for purposes of diversity jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1332.
4. Defendants are citizens of the State of New York for purposes of diversity jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1332.
5. This Court has original subject matter jurisdiction with respect to this action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332 as there exists complete diversity of citizenship between Plaintiff and Defendants and the amount in controversy exceeds Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), exclusive of interest and costs.
6. Defendants are each subject to the jurisdiction of this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332 with proper venue pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391 as both defendants are residents of and/or are domiciled in this district and the events giving rise to the claims occurred in this district.
RAPE, SEXUAL MISCONDUCT, CRIMINAL SEXUAL ACTS, SEXUAL ABUSE, FORCIBLE TOUCHING, ASSAULT, BATTERY, INTENTIONAL AND RECKLESS INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, DURESS, AND FALSE IMPRISONMENT
7. Plaintiff was subject to acts of rape, sexual misconduct, criminal sexual acts, sexual abuse, forcible touching, assault, battery, intentional and reckless infliction of emotional distress, duress, false imprisonment, and threats of death and/or serious bodily injury by the Defendants that took place at several parties during the summer months of 1994. The parties were held by Defendant Epstein at a New York City residence that was being used by Defendant Epstein at 9 E. 71st St. in Manhattan. During this period, Plaintiff was a minor of age 13 and was legally incapable under New York law of consenting to sexual intercourse and the other sexual contacts detailed herein. NY Penal L § 130.05(3)(a). The rapes in the first, second, and third degrees; sexual misconduct; criminal sexual acts in the first, second, and third degrees; sexual abuse in the first, second, and third degrees; and forcible touching (and, on information and belief, predatory sexual assault) detailed herein are unlawful under New York law, e.g., NY Penal L § 130.20-130.52, and 130.55-130.65 (and, on information and belief, 130.95) and constitute the torts of, inter alia, assault, battery, false imprisonment, and intentional or reckless infliction of emotional distress, including threats of force and serious bodily harm, under New York law. In addition, 18 U.S. Code § 2255 provides Plaintiff with a civil remedy for personal injuries because Plaintiff, while a minor, was a victim of violations of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1591, 2421, 2422(b), and 2423(a) and she suffered personal injury as a result of such violations. Declaration of Plaintiff Jane Doe, Exhibit A hereto; Declaration of Tiffany Doe, Exhibit B hereto; Declaration of Joan Doe, Exhibit C hereto; Jane Doe, Tiffany Doe, and Joan Doe are each pseudonyms as each woman wishes anonymity. Tiffany Doe, a witness, was an employee of Defendant Epstein. Exh. B. Joan Doe, a witness, was a childhood classmate of Plaintiff who, in the 1994-95 school year, was told by Plaintiff that Plaintiff was subject to sexual contact by the Defendants at parties in New York City during the summer of 1994. Exh. C.
8. Courts have discretion to allow proceeding anonymously where the need for privacy outweighs the public’s interest in knowing their identity and any prejudice to the defendants. Sealed Plaintiff v. Sealed Defendant, 537 F.3d 185, 189 (2d Cir. 2008). This litigation involves matters that are highly sensitive and of a personal nature, and identification of Plaintiff would pose a risk of retaliatory physical harm to her and to others. Exh. A. All of the ten factors that the Second Circuit articulated as relevant to this analysis favor anonymity, especially factors 1-4, 7, and 10 (e.g., factors one and two: “whether the litigation involves matters that are ‘highly sensitive and [of a] personal nature,’” and “’whether identification poses a risk of retaliatory physical or mental harm to the ... party [seeking to proceed anonymously] or even more critically, to innocent non-parties’”.), or are neutral with respect to anonymity. Protecting Plaintiff’s anonymity is also appropriate as she is a rape victim.
9. Plaintiff was enticed by promises of money and a modeling career to attend a series of parties, with other similarly situated minor females, held at a New York City residence that was being used by Defendant Jeffrey Epstein. At least four of the parties were attended by Defendant Trump. Exhs. A and B. On information and belief, by this time in 1994, Defendant Trump had known Defendant Epstein for seven years (New York, 10/28/02, “’I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,’' Trump booms from a speakerphone. ‘He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it -- Jeffrey enjoys his social life.’”), and knew that Plaintiff was then just 13 years old. Exhs. A and B.
10. Defendant Trump initiated sexual contact with Plaintiff at four different parties. On the fourth and final sexual encounter with Defendant Trump, Defendant Trump tied Plaintiff to a bed, exposed himself to Plaintiff, and then proceeded to forcibly rape Plaintiff. During the course of this savage sexual attack, Plaintiff loudly pleaded with Defendant Trump to stop but with no effect. Defendant Trump responded to Plaintiff’s pleas by violently striking Plaintiff in the face with his open hand and screaming that he would do whatever he wanted. Exhs. A and B.
11. Immediately following this rape, Defendant Trump threatened Plaintiff that, were she ever to reveal any of the details of the sexual and physical abuse of her by Defendant Trump, Plaintiff and her family would be physically harmed if not killed. Exhs. A and B.
12. Defendant Epstein had sexual contact with Plaintiff at two of the parties. The second sexual encounter with Defendant Epstein took place after Plaintiff had been raped by Defendant Trump. Defendant Epstein forced himself upon Plaintiff and proceeded to rape her anally and vaginally despite her loud pleas to stop. Defendant Epstein then attempted to strike Plaintiff about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed at Plaintiff that he, Defendant Epstein, rather than Defendant Trump, should have been the one who took Plaintiff’s virginity, before Plaintiff finally managed to break away from Defendant Epstein. Exhs. A and B.
13. The threats of violence against Plaintiff and her family continued, this time from Defendant Epstein, who again reiterated that Plaintiff was not to reveal any of the details of his sexual and physical abuse of her or else, specifically, Plaintiff and her family would be seriously physically harmed, if not killed. Exhs. A and B.
14. While still under threats of physical harm by coming forward and having no reason to believe that the threats have ever been lifted or would ever be lifted, Plaintiff, who has suffered from stress, emotional distress, mental pain and suffering, among other problems, ever since the assaults, was subjected to daily painful reminders of the horrific acts of one of the perpetrators, Defendant Trump, via mass media coverage of him starting on or about June 16, 2015 that, over a short period of time, became continuous and unavoidable. Exh. A.
15. As a direct and proximate result of the sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon her, Plaintiff has suffered stress, emotional distress, and mental pain and suffering, as well as adverse physical consequences.
16. As a direct and proximate result of the sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon her, Plaintiff has suffered physical pain and suffering.
17. As a direct and proximate result of the sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon her, Plaintiff has been subjected to public scorn, hatred, and ridicule and has suffered threats against her life and physical safety.
18. As a direct and proximate result of the sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon her, Plaintiff has incurred special damages, including medical and legal expenses.
19. The sexual assaults and rapes perpetrated by Defendants upon Plaintiff were intentional acts.
20. The conduct of Defendants demonstrates willful, reckless and intentional conduct that raises a conscious indifference to consequences.
21. At the appropriate time in this litigation, Plaintiff shall amend her complaint to assert a claim for punitive damages against Defendants in order to punish Defendants for their actions and to deter Defendants from repeating their conduct.
TOLLING OF STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS
22. Any statute of limitations applicable to rape, sexual misconduct, criminal sexual acts, sexual abuse, forcible touching, assault, battery, intentional and reckless infliction of emotional distress, false imprisonment of a minor, if any, is tolled owing to the continuous and active duress imposed upon Plaintiff by Defendants that effectively robbed Plaintiff of her free will to commence legal action until the present time. Cullen v. Margiotta, 811 F.2d 698, 722 (2nd Cir.1987); Ross v. United States, 574 F. Supp. 536, 542 (S.D.N.Y. 1983). More particularly, Plaintiff was unrelentingly threatened by each Defendant that, were she ever to reveal any of the details of the sexual and physical abuse caused to her by Defendants, Plaintiff and her family would be physically harmed if not killed. The duress has not terminated and the fear has not subsided. The duress is an element of or inherent in the underlying causes of action complained of herein. The duress and coercion exerted by Defendants has been such as to have actually deprived Plaintiff of her freedom of will to institute suit earlier in time, and it rose to such a level that a person of reasonable firmness in Plaintiff's situation would have been unable to resist. Exhs. A and B.
23. Both Defendants let Plaintiff know that each was a very wealthy, powerful man and indicated that they had the power, ability and means to carry out their threats. Indeed, Defendant Trump stated that Plaintiff shouldn’t ever say anything if she didn’t want to disappear like Maria, a 12-year-old female that was forced to be involved in the third incident with Defendant Trump and that Plaintiff had not seen since that third incident, and that he was capable of having her whole family killed. Exhs. A and B.
24. The duress had prevented Plaintiff from starting litigation before this year. However, as soon as she surfaced, she received threats. More specifically, shortly after her first complaint was filed in California on April 26, 2016, she started receiving threatening phone calls on her cell phone. Exh. A.
25. Defendants are equitably estopped from arguing that any statute of limitations has not been tolled as Defendants wrongfully forced Plaintiff to refrain from timely commencing this action by threats, duress, and other misconduct. Exhs. A and B. Zimmerman v. Poly Prep Country Day School, ___ F.Supp.2d ___ (2012), 2012 WL 3683393; General Stencils, Inc. v. Chippa, 18 N.Y.2d 125, 127 (1966)(“a wrongdoer should not be able to take refuge behind the shield of his own wrongdoing.”).
26. Moreover, this action has been brought before the facts giving rise to the estoppel have ceased to be operational (i.e., while still under threats of physical harm by coming forward and having no reason to believe that the threats have ever been lifted or would ever be lifted) and since Plaintiff has decided to seek redress at this time, Plaintiff seeks an order of protection in favor of Plaintiff and all associated with her so as to protect them from harm and harassment from Defendants and their agents and associates. Exh. A.
DEFAMATION
27. On information and belief, on or about April 28, 2016, Defendant Trump provided the following statement to American Media, Inc. and/or Radar Online LLC for publication on at least their website RadarOnline.com regarding Plaintiff’s complaint ED CV 16- 797-DMG (KSx) filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California: “The allegations are not only categorically false, but disgusting at the highest level and clearly framed to solicit media attention or, perhaps, are simply politically motivated. There is absolutely no merit to these allegations. Period.” The statement provided for publication by Defendant Trump was published by said website and has been republished elsewhere in whole or in part numerous times (and similar statements of an attorney for Defendant Trump were also published, including on September 22, 2016 by Courthouse News Service). The statements provided for publication by Defendant Trump and his agent and that were published by said websites are false as they pertain to Plaintiff.
28. The published statements are libelous on their face, and clearly expose Plaintiff to hatred, contempt, ridicule and obloquy.
29. As a proximate result of the above-described publications, Plaintiff has suffered loss of her reputation, shame, mortification, and injury to her feelings, all to her damage in an amount to be established by proof at trial.
30. The above-described publications were not privileged because they were published by Defendant Trump and his agent with malice, hatred and ill will toward Plaintiff and the desire to injure her.
31. As a direct and proximate result of Defendant Trump’s defamation of Plaintiff, Plaintiff has been subjected to public scorn, hatred, and ridicule and has suffered other injury.
PRAYER FOR RELIEF
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays for judgment against Defendants and for the following relief:
A. That judgment be entered against Defendants for special damages, compensatory damages, and punitive damages in an amount which shall be shown to be reasonable and just by the evidence and in excess of Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), exclusive of interests and costs;
B. That all costs of this action be assessed against Defendants, including all reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and expenses of this action;
C. That an order of protection in favor of Plaintiff and all associated with her be issued so as to protect them from harm and harassment from Defendants and their agents and associates; and
D. Such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper.

3. In the year 1991, I was promoted to the occupation of party planner in which my duties were to get attractive adolescent women to attend these parties.
4. I was hired by and paid directly by Mr. Epstein from the years of 1991-2000 to attract adolescent women to attend these parties, most of which were held at what is known as the Wexner Mansion located at 9 E. 71st St. in New York City.
5. In June, 1994 while performing my duties as a recruiter of adolescent women to attend Mr. Epstein's parties, I met a 13-year-old adolescent woman, the Plaintiff in this matter, at the Port Authority in New York City who said that she had come to New York City in the hope of starting a modeling career.
6. I persuaded the Plaintiff to attend a series of parties of Mr. Epstein that took place during the summer of 1994. I told her that, if she would join me at the parties, she would be introduced to people who could get her into the modeling profession and she would be paid for attending.
7. It was at these series of parties that I personally witnessed the Plaintiff being forced to perform various sexual acts with Donald J. Trump and Mr. Epstein. Both Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein were advised that she was 13 years old.
8. I personally witnessed four sexual encounters that the Plaintiff was forced to have with Mr. Trump during this period, including the fourth of these encounters where Mr. Trump forcibly raped her despite her pleas to stop.
9. I personally witnessed the one occasion where Mr. Trump forced the Plaintiff and a 12-year-old female named Maria perform oral sex on Mr. Trump and witnessed his physical abuse of both minors when they finished the act.
10. I personally witnessed or was made immediately aware of the two occasions where my boss Mr. Epstein attempted to rape and sodomize the Plaintiff. I personally witnessed Mr. Epstein sexually and physically abuse other minor females even younger than her.
11. It was my job to personally witness and supervise encounters between the underage girls that Mr. Epstein hired and his guests.
12. I personally witnessed Mr. Trump physically threaten the life and well-being of the Plaintiff if she ever revealed any details of the physical and sexual abuse suffered by her at the hands of Mr. Trump.
13. I personally witnessed Mr. Epstein physically threaten the life and well-being of the Plaintiff if she ever revealed the details of the physical and sexual abuse she suffered at the hands of Mr. Epstein or any of his guests.
14. I personally witnessed Defendant Trump telling the Plaintiff that she shouldn't ever say anything if she didn't want to disappear like the 12-year-old female Maria, and that he was capable of having her whole family killed.
15. After leaving the employment of Mr. Epstein in the year 2000, I was personally threatened by Mr. Epstein that I would be killed and my family killed as well if I ever disclosed any of the physical and sexual abuse of minor females that I had personally witnessed by Mr. Epstein or any of his guests.
16. I am coming forward to swear to the truthfulness of the physical and sexual abuse that I personally witnessed of minor females at the hands of Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein, including the Plaintiff, during the time of my employment from the years of 1990-2000 for Mr. Epstein. I swear to these facts under penalty of perjury even though I fully understand that the life of myself and my family is now in grave danger.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

by Ben Meiselas
MeidasTouch
Mar 16, 2025 The MeidasTouch Podcast
MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas interviews author Michael Wolff about his new book “All or Nothing” and the secrets he knows about Trump and Trump’s darker connections.
Transcript
let's talk about someone who Donald
Trump attacks over and over again
probably almost more than anyone uh it's
a reporter and author by the name of
Michael wolf and I'm sure you've seen
Donald Trump attack him like this
so-called author Michael Wolf's new book
is a total fake job just like the other
junk he wrote he called me many times
trying to set up a meeting but I never
called him back because I didn't want to
give him credit ability of an interview
blah blah blah there's so many other
posts like this and Michael Wolf's out
with the new book called All or Nothing
how Trump recaptured America and frankly
because of posts like that he's kind of
persona non gr when it comes to
corporate media and normally you do a
book tour you talk about your book
Michael wolf wrote about it in The
Hollywood Reporter Michael wolf Trump
scared the news networks into Banning my
book it's a guest column in the
Hollywood report and does it shock you
that the corporate media oligarchs who
went and kissed the ring at maral Lago
would not want someone like Michael wolf
on their Network they used to have him
on the network all the time to talk
about his reporting I think there may be
another reason as well that Trump
attacks wolf more than anybody what can
it be I thought for a second they were
going to release those Epstein files
remember all of those Maga influencers
they they went outside and they were
holding their binders up saying that
they had those those Epstein files and
it turned out it was just like Epstein's
phone list by the way which has Trump's
name on it which was released many years
ago in connection with the various uh
cases involving Epstein but if y'all
remember Wolf's got a lot of tapes of
Epstein talking about Donald Trump like
you may recall this one that we and The
Daily Beast reported but almost no one
else was uh reporting before the
election seems like a big deal me but
you remember this let's play it I think
we have a snippet from one of the
conversations that I recorded with
Epstein and I think this was in a
restaurant in
2017 his people fight each other right
uh and then have
Outsiders he sort of poisons the well
outside he will tell 10 people bannon's
a
scumbag and priest is not doing a good
job and Kelly has a big mouth what you
think Jamie Diamond says you're a
problem and I shouldn't keep
you and I spoke to K icon and call
thinks I need a new spokesperson so
Kelly even though I hired Kelly
an's
husband Kell is just too much of a
wild let's bring on Michael wolf since
we now have a platform bigger than
corporate media platform and they don't
want to have him on let's have him on
the author of All or Nothing how Trump
recaptured America First Mr Wolf my
question for you is how have you
uncovered that you're pretty much banned
from being on corporate
media you know it was so this this book
came out and this is my this is my
fourth book and uh all of the other
books you know they come out and
everybody invites you on to talk about
Donald Trump because it's Donald Trump
and uh and Donald Trump gets ratings so
um and my books and I sell a lot of
books so therefore it seems unnatural
for television and then so this book
came out um or we began planning for it
and it was crickets out there everybody
was going well no I don't you know we'll
we'll get back to you um and MSNBC which
of course would book this want me on to
talk about this book because what else
do they talk about besides Donald Trump
um and and and disliking Donald Trump
and they had booked me for that first
publication week which was I guess two
three weeks ago um and um but then just
as the as the as the White House started
to attack me uh excerpts began to leaks
began to appear about the book and then
the White House attacked me and they
cancelled they canceled everything um
and it was like well it's now with we're
we're it's it's with our
standards um committee or some some
strange thing which I've never heard of
um and you know clearly and then
actually somebody from the White House
called up to threaten me and said you
know it's a new climate um and and then
cited the ABC settlement um this ongoing
negotiations with CBS to settle over
over the way they edited the kamla
Harris interview on 60 Minutes and um
and then and then actually MSNBC the
people there were fairly straightforward
in saying well you know it's a new
climate uh so um so I I thought um it
was time for someone to um acknowledge
that uh things had changed in this new
Trump World Order and um and that
included
uh you know the media running incredibly
scared must have shocked you I mean you
spent your whole career as a reporter
you write these books you read a lot of
books that before I even got into
quitting my law practice and doing this
uh full-time I I read I read your books
I read fire and fury um just this idea
that you would be told it's it the
climate has shifted where you can talk
about your book and like I know the
exhausted process I mean you go through
hours and hours of of interviews and and
fact checks and they're being told
because you're writing a book critical
you can't go on the networks and then
Trump's people are saying it's a
different climate which you perceived I
think rightfully so as a
threat well I I mean I I might say that
nothing about television ever surprises
me um um but I think at this moment in
time is a very precarious moment um
virtually Trump is out there threatening
anybody he perceives as an enemy and the
media companies are very vulnerable here
they all have I me that we're we're
suddenly in this media environment where
where everybody is looking at at some
consolidation play and they're all going
to need um regulatory imp approval from
the FCC and Trump is holding this over
their heads I mean very clearly and very
you know this is not even even a soft
suggestion it's an outright threat um we
can we can block your business future
now all of these media comp I mean there
are there are the news news channels and
news divisions which I'm I'm talking to
but those are those are owned by these
very large companies um um uh Comcast uh
Warner Brothers Discovery Disney um who
have
many who where the stakes are much
higher than just their news division
yeah well you're going to be stuck with
me right now for this interview Michael
so let me ask you one question and and
we get more viewers than a lot of them
so and I think all of them so let let me
let me start here um I want to go talk
about your book in a moment but I I I
did show that clip of the Epstein tapes
and I think it's in the news a lot
because Trump's putting it in the news
his regime people are saying we've got
the files we're going to release the
files and then they release nothing they
give binders to influencers who then say
these are the Epstein files and then
they blamed it on like FBI in New York
and said that's the reason why and then
I think they're just hoping that
everybody like just forgets about it
just can can can you remind us and let
us know the the amount of one why do you
have these the audio recordings like
that how many do you have and just
remind the audience of like a general
flavor of of what they are so people so
people know what it is that I even
showed him um in
2014 um Epstein who I who I knews
through some New York
connections uh asked me if I would be
interested in writing a book about him
um and and I was like well you
know I I don't know I said I don't know
and I probably wasn't but he was there
there there was something about
Epstein you might even call it his charm
I mean there there is a reason so many
people were around him um uh so many
well-regarded powerful people were
around him um and it was partly his
expansiveness and he said and he said to
me well you decide if you want to write
a book about me but you can
come my house at my at my um at this
dining room table where where uh people
came from morning till till uh till
evening incredibly famous people and sat
around and um and just discussed the
state of the world really um and while
he fed them and his Cooks brought out
all kinds of food I mean really kind of
incredibly peculiar um scene to witness
in which I witnessed over and over again
and um and uh ran the tape recorder and
and he sat for many many hours of
discussion with with me um I mean
certainly certainly 80 90 probably a 100
hours I have of Epstein on tape and and
one of the discussions because this was
occurring Trump became the president in
in
2017 I began writing writing about about
Trump and so we spent a lot of time
talking about Donald Trump and Epstein's
relationship with with with Trump which
was went on for a good certainly 15
years and was incredibly close close
they were I you know each other's
closest friend for a very long time um
and Epstein I you know I think Epstein
is one of those people who truly knew
Donald Trump knew many secrets about
Donald Trump um and was threatening to
Donald Trump so and and actually so at
this moment in the in in the White House
you know the the the whole Mega people
think oh Epstein and this is a
conspiracy and the you know pedophilia
all Democrats are or pedophiles or um
but at the same time Trump is totally
freaked out about the Epstein thing and
you know I mean he they they were very
close friends um there's a moment in in
my last last book where um uh where I
talk about Trump talking to his people
about about what G Maxwell might have on
him and what she might say and should he
pardon
her how many hours would you say is
about audio uh you said there's like
maybe 80 100 hours total but of that
what do you think would be of trump
related conversations you know I I can't
I mean Trump weaved in and out of all
conversations and and remember and and
also there's a lot in these tapes tape
of Steve Bannon who was very F became
very friendly with Epstein so it's
Bannon in Trump Bannon in Epstein also
talking about Trump which was their kind
of bond I mean they both they both uh um
they're both kind of incredulous about
the character of Donald Trump and that
this character became the president of
the United States are you planning on
ever releasing I I saw the Snippets uh
on Daily Beast the other portions
released yeah you know this is a funny
thing because I have I have really tried
to try to find venues for this material
for quite a number of years now and um
um and everybody kind of gets excited
about it because it's it's kind of
riveting stuff and then everybody goes
oh but you know it's Epstein we can't do
Epstein because he's Epstein um and um
and project after project kind of kind
of meets its it's an an untimely end
well well we'll chat afterwards and uh
I'll make a I'll I'll make a pitch to
you but let's talk about the book All or
nothing right now um tell us what's in
this book tell us why people should get
it and why this is um kind of the
evolution of your books whether it was
fire and fury where where does this I
mean this is this is the campaign I mean
I started writing this book in in um um
in 2022 so it's it really the is the
campaign the Trump campaign from the
beginning right till the um till till um
till the election and um you know and I
think it's it's interesting again
because this is just another window into
who this guy is this is this is the
character of Donald Trump I mean you and
I often point out I'm not a political
reporter I'm I'm a writer I'm interested
in in character I'm interested in
getting the guy on the page so to be
able to see him through this campaign uh
really day by day day after day to be
talking on a constant basis to the
people around him I mean I think I think
offers just this this this Vivid window
into um into
a how this happened how he comes back
from Total disgrace after January 6 to
winning the presidency again and also
the the just the just the peculiar of
this guy um you know it's um
um you know it's a kind of story in
which in which he veers between this
kind of
mania um um and this depressive rage so
this is Donald Trump
raw you know there's something too
though about your legacy as a writer of
these types of
biographies that I think scares him it's
peculiar and particularly focused on on
you and and I think it's because you
know and and it's this is a compliment
to you that you're one of the kind of
remaining old school biographers kind of
out there and in his own
mind he respects your work in a sense
and he knows your process so when you're
giving that lens his fragile ego can't
accept it I I don't know if there's
parts of that but it's something unique
about you that pisses him off there's
lot yeah I mean I think it's because
because again I'm not a political
reporter I'm I don't you know I'm you
know all most other reporters people
covering Donald Trump are seeing him in
a political
context that's not really the the way I
see him or the way I want to see him I
want to see the guy as as as real as
possible as as as personally as possible
you know when I wrote my biography of
rert Murdoch um he called me up he was
enraged by it and um and he called me up
yelling and I said ruper just just
please tell me what's wrong with this
and he kind of sputtered and he says
it's just so personal and I said well
rert it is a biography um and and and I
think that's part of what happens with
with uh with Trump it's it's very
difficult for these guys to see them to
see themselves in a
uh you know um through someone else's
eyes and seeing
them with with some degree of the
emperor with no with no clothes and
finally what what I I don't want to ruin
the book for everybody so they should
all get it here Flash the book One More
Time salty so people can see it All or
Nothing by Michael wolf how Trump
recaptured America and thanks to your
team for sending it my way and I'd
recommend everybody to read it but what
do you make right now obviously you're
you know you're observing I think the
way the rest of the world is these this
manic Trump of tariffs no tariffs
tariffs no tariffs him sitting in front
of the these world leaders in the Oval
Office talking about annexing this
country annexing that country how does
your research on him maybe inform people
on this moment that they're seeing right
now are you seeing something different
right now in his pathology or is this
consistent with who you who you've
covered so I it completely consistent I
mean Donal Donald Trump I don't think
has changed the way he operates or what
he wants or how he sees things um in
decades um and and these these these
first weeks of the new Administration
which are actually rather like the first
weeks of the first Administration all
goes back to what does he want and he
wants headlines headlines headlines
headlines he doesn't care about policy
he doesn't care about legislative agenda
he cares about about dominating the news
cycle every day so you can read the New
York Times today and literally every
story is a trump related story that's
what he wants um and there's some method
to this madness which is to say that if
if um um if if he gets airtime or or or
headlines uh nobody else does therefore
he is the only thing that matters he's
the only person on the stage and that's
how he has run his political life that's
how he ran his real estate life that's
how he ran his entertainment business
life um and um um and it doesn't matter
if he if he contradicts the headlines
the next day tariffs on tariffs off
because it it just gives him another
headline no as I like to say now we are
all somewhat trapped as kind of
non-consensual participants in this
dystopian reality show that he's um you
know that that that he's created you
gonna do any more books what are you
thinking what's the next one you know
after every book I say I say I I say I I
certainly hope not and I swear off any
possibility so and that's that's where I
am today in this moment so we will see
well you've written a lot of books after
swearing it off so we'll come back in a
year we'll check in on you Michael wolf
thanks for everything and everybody
check out the book All or Nothing how
Trump recaptured America I appreciate

but those are those are owned by these
very large companies um um uh Comcast uh
Warner Brothers Discovery Disney um who
have
many who where the stakes are much

so let me ask you one question and and

flavor of of what they are so people so
people know what it is that I even
showed him um in
2014 um Epstein who I who I knews
through some New York
connections uh asked me if I would be
interested in writing a book about him
um and and I was like well you
know I I don't know I said I don't know
and I probably wasn't but he was there
there there was something about
Epstein you might even call it his charm
I mean there there is a reason so many
people were around him um uh so many
well-regarded powerful people were
around him um and it was partly his
expansiveness and he said and he said to
me well you decide if you want to write
a book about me but you can
come my house at my at my um at this
dining room table where where uh people

all Democrats are or pedophiles or um
but at the same time Trump is totally
freaked out about the Epstein thing and
you know I mean he they they were very
close friends um there's a moment in in
my last last book where um uh where I
talk about Trump talking to his people
about about what G Maxwell might have on
him and what she might say and should he
pardon
her how many hours would you say is
about audio uh you said there's like
maybe 80 100 hours total but of that
what do you think would be of trump
related conversations you know I I can't
I mean Trump weaved in and out of all
conversations and and remember and and
also there's a lot in these tapes tape
of Steve Bannon who was very F became
very friendly with Epstein so it's
Bannon in Trump Bannon in Epstein also
talking about Trump which was their kind
of bond I mean they both they both uh um
they're both kind of incredulous about
the character of Donald Trump and that
this character became the president of
the United States are you planning on
ever releasing I I saw the Snippets uh
on Daily Beast the other portions
released yeah you know this is a funny
thing because I have I have really tried
to try to find venues for this material
for quite a number of years now and um
um and everybody kind of gets excited
about it because it's it's kind of
riveting stuff and then everybody goes
oh but you know it's Epstein we can't do
Epstein because he's Epstein um and um
and project after project kind of kind
of meets its it's an an untimely end
well well we'll chat afterwards and uh
I'll make a I'll I'll make a pitch to
you but let's talk about the book All or
nothing right now um tell us what's in
this book tell us why people should get
it and why this is um kind of the
evolution of your books whether it was
fire and fury where where does this I
mean this is this is the campaign I mean
I started writing this book in in um um
in 2022 so it's it really the is the
campaign the Trump campaign from the
beginning right till the um till till um
till the election and um you know and I
think it's it's interesting again
because this is just another window into
who this guy is this is this is the
character of Donald Trump I mean you and
I often point out I'm not a political
reporter I'm I'm a writer I'm interested
in in character I'm interested in
getting the guy on the page so to be
able to see him through this campaign uh
really day by day day after day to be
talking on a constant basis to the
people around him I mean I think I think
offers just this this this Vivid window
into um into
a how this happened how he comes back
from Total disgrace after January 6 to
winning the presidency again and also
the the just the just the peculiar of
this guy um you know it's um
um you know it's a kind of story in
which in which he veers between this
kind of
mania um um and this depressive rage so
this is Donald Trump
raw you know there's something too
though about your legacy as a writer of
these types of
biographies that I think scares him it's
peculiar and particularly focused on on
you and and I think it's because you
know and and it's this is a compliment
to you that you're one of the kind of
remaining old school biographers kind of
out there and in his own
mind he respects your work in a sense
and he knows your process so when you're
giving that lens his fragile ego can't
accept it I I don't know if there's
parts of that but it's something unique
about you that pisses him off there's
lot yeah I mean I think it's because
because again I'm not a political
reporter I'm I don't you know I'm you
know all most other reporters people
covering Donald Trump are seeing him in
a political
context that's not really the the way I
see him or the way I want to see him I
want to see the guy as as as real as
possible as as as personally as possible
you know when I wrote my biography of
rert Murdoch um he called me up he was
enraged by it and um and he called me up
yelling and I said ruper just just
please tell me what's wrong with this
and he kind of sputtered and he says
it's just so personal and I said well
rert it is a biography um and and and I
think that's part of what happens with
with uh with Trump it's it's very
difficult for these guys to see them to
see themselves in a
uh you know um through someone else's
eyes and seeing
them with with some degree of the
emperor with no with no clothes and
finally what what I I don't want to ruin
the book for everybody so they should
all get it here Flash the book One More
Time salty so people can see it All or
Nothing by Michael wolf how Trump
recaptured America and thanks to your
team for sending it my way and I'd
recommend everybody to read it but what
do you make right now obviously you're
you know you're observing I think the
way the rest of the world is these this
manic Trump of tariffs no tariffs
tariffs no tariffs him sitting in front
of the these world leaders in the Oval
Office talking about annexing this
country annexing that country how does
your research on him maybe inform people
on this moment that they're seeing right
now are you seeing something different
right now in his pathology or is this
consistent with who you who you've
covered so I it completely consistent I
mean Donal Donald Trump I don't think
has changed the way he operates or what
he wants or how he sees things um in
decades um and and these these these
first weeks of the new Administration
which are actually rather like the first
weeks of the first Administration all
goes back to what does he want and he
wants headlines headlines headlines
headlines he doesn't care about policy
he doesn't care about legislative agenda
he cares about about dominating the news
cycle every day so you can read the New
York Times today and literally every
story is a trump related story that's
what he wants um and there's some method
to this madness which is to say that if
if um um if if he gets airtime or or or
headlines uh nobody else does therefore
he is the only thing that matters he's
the only person on the stage and that's
how he has run his political life that's
how he ran his real estate life that's
how he ran his entertainment business
life um and um um and it doesn't matter
if he if he contradicts the headlines
the next day tariffs on tariffs off
because it it just gives him another
headline no as I like to say now we are
all somewhat trapped as kind of
non-consensual participants in this
dystopian reality show that he's um you
know that that that he's created you
gonna do any more books what are you
thinking what's the next one you know
after every book I say I say I I say I I
certainly hope not and I swear off any
possibility so and that's that's where I
am today in this moment so we will see
well you've written a lot of books after
swearing it off so we'll come back in a
year we'll check in on you Michael wolf
thanks for everything and everybody
check out the book All or Nothing how
Trump recaptured America I appreciate

Elon Musk Reacts to Epstein List Report: 'Final Straw'

Elon Musk has said an Axios report that the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had concluded there was no evidence of a Jeffrey Epstein client list was the "final straw."
The report also said the agencies had concluded there was no credible evidence the disgraced financier and pedophile blackmailed high-profile and prominent individuals, and confirmed that surveillance footage showed Epstein had killed himself in prison.
It comes amid a renewal of the feud between billionaire Tesla CEO Musk and U.S. President Donald Trump, who were political allies until recently.
The two men dramatically fell out over Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill, and a claim by Musk that Trump was not releasing the Epstein files because his name was in them. Musk later said he had gone too far with the remark.
"So... umm... then what is Ghislaine Maxwell in prison for?" Musk posted to his X platform, referring to Epstein's former girlfriend and associate who procured underage girls for him to abuse.
"Stuff like this does not improve people's faith in government."

Epstein Files Delay
Trump and his allies promised to release the Epstein case files in full amid suspicions of a cover-up about the latter's illicit sexual activities and the involvement of powerful people.
But delays to their release, and now the conclusion that Epstein was not blackmailing people or maintaining a related client list, have angered many Trump supporters, who expected a different outcome. Some believed he had been murdered while awaiting trial.
In February, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi, responding to a question on Fox News about Epstein's alleged client list, had said it was "sitting on my desk right now to review."
Musk posted a meme showing the Trump administration's evolving position on the issue, ending with: "There is no Epstein list."
"This is the final straw," Musk wrote in reply to another user of X, formerly Twitter.
Elon Musk Touts New America Party
Musk earlier said he planned to form a new America Party for the 2026 midterms, which would target a handful of winnable Senate and House seats in an attempt to control the balance of power in Congress and break the two-party domination of U.S. politics.
"I am saddened to watch Elon Musk go completely 'off the rails,' essentially becoming a TRAIN WRECK over the past five weeks," Trump posted to his Truth Social platform on Sunday, July 6.
"He even wants to start a Third Political Party, despite the fact that they have never succeeded in the United States - The System seems not designed for them.
"The one thing Third Parties are good for is the creation of Complete and Total DISRUPTION & CHAOS, and we have enough of that with the Radical Left Democrats, who have lost their confidence and their minds!"

Elon Musk is back online (though, let's be real, he doesn't really ever log off), stirring the pot with Donald Trump.

If you recall, a month ago, amidst a feud and falling out with Donald Trump, Musk took to his platform X, formerly Twitter, to drop a bomb, accusing Trump in a now-deleted tweet of being "in the Epstein files," and saying that was "the real reason they have not been made public." He later deleted the tweet, saying he "went too far."
Well, now, in a report first shared by Axios, the US Department of Justice and the FBI have released a review concluding that there is no secret "client list" of individuals with whom Jeffrey Epstein conspired with or blackmailed to exploit young women. The review also reaffirmed that Epstein died by suicide. Both findings contradict widely circulated claims and conspiracy theories promoted by some Trump associates.
In light of the news, Elon Musk re-ignited the public feud to share his thoughts. In a tweet sharing the report, he replied, "So … umm … then what is Ghislaine Maxwell in prison for? Stuff like this does not improve people’s faith in government."
Then, he posted this meme:
The meme seems to reference a claim made by US Attorney General Pam Bondi in February. In a Fox News interview, she said the list was "sitting on her desk," and that she was reviewing it at Trump's direction, alongside other files like those related to JFK and MLK. That quote is now making the rounds again as it contradicts the DOJ's current stance.
Musk didn't stop there, continuing his rant. "This is the final straw," he wrote.
In another tweet-meme, he posted a "Jeffrey Epstein Pedophile Arrest Counter" set to zero with the caption, "What's the time? Oh look, it's no-one-has-been-arrested-o'clock again …"
And lastly, he then retweeted a tweet that read: "If the entire government is protecting pedophiles, it has officially become the government against the people. I hope you all understand that."
So...yeah. Musk is back online, beefing, stirring the pot with memes and accusations, while the DOJ says there's nothing more to see here. Whether any of it leads anywhere? TBD. In the meantime, Musk said he is launching a third political party called the "America Party," while Trump, never one to stay quiet, called Musk a "TRAIN WRECK" in a tirade on Sunday.
Le sigh, I wish I could tell you this is all just one sick joke. But no, this is real life, starring the world’s richest man and our country's highest official. What a timeline to watch unfold.
As of posting, the Trump administration has not yet responded to Musk's tweets. We will update you if they do.

Well, now, in a report first shared by Axios, the US Department of Justice and the FBI have released a review concluding that there is no secret "client list" of individuals with whom Jeffrey Epstein conspired with or blackmailed to exploit young women. The review also reaffirmed that Epstein died by suicide. Both findings contradict widely circulated claims and conspiracy theories promoted by some Trump associates.
https://www.justice.gov/opa/media/1407001/dl?inline
U.S. Department of Justice
Federal Bureau of Investigation
__________________________________________________________________________
As part of our commitment to transparency, the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have conducted an exhaustive review of investigative holdings relating to Jeffrey Epstein. To ensure that the review was thorough, the FBI conducted digital searches of its databases, hard drives, and network drives as well as physical searches of squad areas, locked cabinets, desks, closets, and other areas where responsive material may have been stored. These searches uncovered a significant amount of material, including more than 300 gigabytes of data and physical evidence.
The files relating to Epstein include a large volume of images of Epstein, images and videos of victims who are either minors or appear to be minors, and over ten thousand downloaded videos and images of illegal child sex abuse material and other pornography. Teams of agents, analysts, attorneys, and privacy and civil liberties experts combed through the digital and documentary evidence with the aim of providing as much information as possible to the public while simultaneously protecting victims. Much of the material is subject to court-ordered sealing. Only a fraction of this material would have been aired publicly had Epstein gone to trial, as the seal served only to protect victims and did not expose any additional third-parties to allegations of illegal wrongdoing. Through this review, we found no basis to revisit the disclosure of those materials and will not permit the release of child pornography.
This systematic review revealed no incriminating “client list.” There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions. We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.
Consistent with prior disclosures, this review confirmed that Epstein harmed over one thousand victims. Each suffered unique trauma. Sensitive information relating to these victims is intertwined throughout the materials. This includes specific details such as victim names and likenesses, physical descriptions, places of birth, associates, and employment history.
One of our highest priorities is combatting child exploitation and bringing justice to victims. Perpetuating unfounded theories about Epstein serves neither of those ends.
To that end, while we have labored to provide the public with maximum information regarding Epstein and ensured examination of any evidence in the government’s possession, it is the determination of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation that no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted.
After a thorough investigation, FBI investigators concluded that Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City on August 10, 2019. This conclusion is consistent with previous findings, including the August 19, 2019 autopsy findings of the New York City Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, the November 2019 position of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York in connection with the investigation of federal correctional officers responsible for guarding Epstein, and the June 2023 conclusions of DOJ’s Office of the Inspector General.
The conclusion that Epstein died by suicide is further supported by video footage from the common area of the Special Housing Unit (SHU) where Epstein was housed at the time of his death. As DOJ’s Inspector General explained in 2023, anyone entering or attempting to enter the tier where Epstein’s cell was located from the SHU common area would have been captured by this footage. The FBI’s independent review of this footage confirmed that from the time Epstein was locked in his cell at around 10:40 pm on August 9, 2019, until around 6:30 am the next morning, nobody entered any of the tiers in the SHU.
During this review, the FBI enhanced the relevant footage by increasing its contrast, balancing the color, and improving its sharpness for greater clarity and viewability. The full raw and enhanced videos are available at the following links: https://www.justice.gov/video-file1;

I am saddened to watch Elon Musk go completely "off the rails," essentially becoming a TRAIN WRECK over the past five weeks. He even wants to start a Third Political Party, despite the fact that they have never succeeded in the United States - The System seems not designed for them. The one thing Third Parties are good for is the creation of Complete and Total DISRUPTION & CHAOS, and we have enough of that with the Radical Left Democrats, who have lost their confidence and their minds! Republicans, on the other hand, are a smooth running "machine," that just passed the biggest Bill of its kind in the History of our Country. It is a Great Bill but, unfortunately for Elon, it eliminates the ridiculous Electric Vehicle (EV) Mandate, which would have forced everyone to buy an Electric Car in a short period of time. I have been strongly opposed to that from the very beginning. People are now allowed to buy whatever they want - Gasoline Powered, Hybrids (which are doing very well), or New Technologies as they come about - No more EV Mandate. I have campaigned on this for two years and, quite honestly, when Elon gave me his total and unquestioned Endorsement, I asked him whether or not he knew that I was going to terminate the EV Mandate - It was in every speech I made, and in every conversation I had. He said he had no problems with that - I was very surprised! Additionally, Elon asked that one of his close friends run NASA and, while I though his friend was very good, I was surprised to learn that he was a blue blooded Democrat, who had never contributed to a Republican before. Elon probably was, also. I also thought it inappropriate that a very close friend of Elon, who was in the Space Business, run NASA, when NASA is such a big part of Elon's corporate life. My Number One charge is to protect the American Public!
Le sigh, I wish I could tell you this is all just one sick joke. But no, this is real life, starring the world’s richest man and our country's highest official. What a timeline to watch unfold.
As of posting, the Trump administration has not yet responded to Musk's tweets. We will update you if they do.

BREAKING: Bongino & Patel Consider LEAVING Trump Admin!
by Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola and Mark Thompson
The Young Turks
Jul 11, 2025
FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino has reportedly taken the day off work after a fight with Attorney General Pam Bondi about her handling of the "Epstein files." Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola and Mark Thompson discuss on The Young Turks.
Transcript
Even inside of the Trump administration,
prominent members of MAGA are roiling with
this whole Epstein thing. And we want to
start with this guy first because
Bongino apparently got into a big tiff
with Pam Bondi. And as of right now, at
least, he's off the job. He took the day
off, I guess, which is a thing that you
can just do abruptly even when you have
a really important job. And a source
close to Bongino said he ain't coming back,
which is not a guarantee, but sources
are now saying he is considering that if
Pam Bondi doesn't go, he'll go, and I
hope somehow all of them go, but it's not
up to me.
Now, Caitlyn Collins
reports it's accurate that Dan Bongino
has told people he's considering
resigning in a major clash between the
FBI and the DOJ over the fallout from
the Epstein memo. Apparently he got into
it with Bondi about the missing minute
in the tape. And so he apparently
is mad, because he's been taking some of
the blame for not catching the fact that
it had the missing minute before they
put it out. And Bondi's mad at him
because he's been telling the press that
he and Kash Patel have been stopped from
releasing more information about the
Epstein files, but they're not
releasing that additional information.
And he has a lot of power, you know,
unto himself, let alone Kash Patel. And
so people are saying he's not happy with
the way that Pam Bondi has dealt with
the Epstein files. And I think all of
this is fascinating, but I also think
that it's convenient to just
assume, oh wait, maybe Pam Bondi's the
cause of the cover up. And actually Bongino
and Kash Patel, who made a name for
themselves, and tons of money before
entering the administration talking
about this story, they're secretly
fighting the good fight. But the thing
is, they've been participating in the
early steps of this coverup for literally
months. They've been doing those
interviews, and going on with
Joe Rogan, and going on with all these
people, and being like, "I haven't seen
anything, and there's no evidence yet the
guy killed himself." And like maybe they
have an issue with the tape, but what have they been saying
over the past few months, while these
files have been sitting waiting to be
reviewed, they've been like "mums the
word." Any of their public comments I
think, are totally consistent with either
a coverup, or that there is in fact
nothing. And I want everyone to bear
in mind that, just feel free to
disagree, it could be that both of them
are, and always have been true believers
on this stuff. And now they're aghast
at the fact that either nothing is
coming up, in which case one would think
they would perhaps apologize for leading
their audiences on for literally years
as they soaked up the money from it,
or that it is important,
as Jake points out, MAGA 90% in revolt
over this, they're thinking, okay, I
have this great job, and I don't want to
say anything that's going to get Donald
Trump to be mad at me. But Donald
Trump's heart could explode in his chest
in about 6 months, and I would like to
have a media career for the next 20
years. And this is perhaps a moment
where if I'm not seen to be on the right
side of this, that's it for me, and Maga
will never trust me.
Yeah. And we know how powerful audience
capture is for a lot of these people.
And so they have a ton of loyalty for
Trump, but they also desperately want
more mansions and fancy cars in the
years ahead.
[Cenk] Yeah. So that is exactly right. So
there's two different issues here. But
before then, we're doing a poll in the
live chat. Watch the show Monday through
Friday at 6:00. I love you guys
participating in this. And this is now a
really good question. Who's out first?
Bongino, Bondi, or Kash Patel? Uh,
Bongino seems like he's halfway down the
sword, so that's why he's winning. But
Pam Bondi is going to be the scapegoat.
So, let's get into that.
So, the two different issues are why is
Bongino freaking out the way that he is,
going to take the day off, saying
"That's it! I'm considering
resigning." Not just considering
resigning, but apparently telling almost
everyone in the MAGA world,
because there's leaks everywhere, right?
And he's like, "Oh, yeah. I might quit.
Remember I'm the good guy. I might
quit." Right. So, we'll see if he does or
he doesn't. So that's point
one. And the reason he's doing that is
because the MAGA base is like, "Fuck this.
All of you have zero credibility left.
It turns out you're compromised." Look,
you egg on conspiracy theories for
10, 20 years straight. 10 years, let's
give them right, the Bonginos of the
world. And then when that Frankenstein
turns on you, you're going to be
surprised, like especially the core
Frankenstein you built right now in this
case. Though to be fair to MAGA,
they are a thousand times more right than
Bongino, Kash Patel, Bondi, and Trump right?
Because what's the actual conspiracy
theory? That hundreds of girls raped
themselves, and that there are no clients,
and no one should be prosecuted? So that's
the conspiracy theory, the government's
position.
The Bongino position right now
is a wild, ludicrous conspiracy theory.
The idea that it's the various forces
who our government is covering up for is
the leading theory. And by the way,
that's not just a MAGA theory. That's
also the left-wing theory. And by
the way, the middlewing theory. No one
thinks those girls raped themselves, that
there were no clients, and we shouldn't
prosecute a single person. Other
than mainstream media reporters and
politicians, I don't know a single
person who believes that. Left, right,
middle, right?
So the government's
position is a lunatic conspiracy theory.
MAGA agrees with all of us. It's BS. And the
fact that they were objective
enough to to say, "Yeah, no, this is
wrong, and the Trump team is lying," I
don't know why they're lying, but
they're definitely lying. That is why
Bongino is jumping out of his skin.
Cuz you're right. If they keep going like
this, Kash Patel, Bongino, Pam Bondi, Pam
Bondi is already gone. She has no career
left in the right at all anymore.
There's not a single right-winger that
will ever vote for Pam Bondi. She's
gone, gone, gone. That's why she's gonna
be the first one under a bus. Bongino
might leave earlier, but Pam Bondi's,
like her new nickname, could be "Road Bump,"
because she's going under a bus. There's
no question about that. They were all
referring to her as Pam Blondie, and the
whole thing about the files are on my
desk, and then giving out the binders, and
now she's saying nonsense. She puts
out a total BS tape, etc. So, she's a
goner. What Trump would love, or that
team Trump would love, is "it was all Pam
Bondi's fault. And no no no, not
Bongino, not Kash Patel, not Trump, not any of the
rest.
Was Pam Bondi right? But here's where
it all breaks down, which is the core of
the issue, the second issue ,the more
important one, yes. But can
Bondi can get fired? But where are
the freaking clients? If you're never
going to release the client list, and
you're never going to tell us a single
person who did this, and you're never
going to prosecute anyone, and you're
going to stick with your lunatic
conspiracy theory that the girls raped
themselves,
it's not going to solve anything.
Yeah.
It's not going to solve Bongino's problem
with his career. If he comes out and
goes, "No, no, they're right. He killed himself and there
were no clients."
No one in MAGA is going to listen
to him. Not one person.
So, the quitting
and the firing is irrelevant. Are you
actually going to do it or not?
Look guys, I think this is so big. This is
not like, "Oh, hey, that's an
interesting amazing story of MAGA
turning on Trump and blah blah blah."
No. Like this to me feels like somebody
taking the finger out of their dam
because now like across the board, f the
government, f the establishment. We
don't believe a word they say anymore.
So you could yap on CNN or the New York
Times and call everybody conspiracy
theorists, etc. But Ed Stein and and his
very rich and powerful clients did rape
underage girls. None of them have been
prosecuted. And the American government
at a minimum is definitely protecting
the rapists. So now, and by the way,
Trump did it, Biden did it, Trump did
it, every president did it. So don't
tell me it's not an intelligence agency.
Like, like, yeah, maybe every president
raped an underage girl, and that's why
they're all not releasing the the files
or the evidence. But Trump ran on it,
man. He ran on it. And so now to come in
and go the thing that you care most
about, MAGA, I'm gonna I mean that is
like sticking the knife right into their
heart. Right. It's it's
a snap at a reporter for bringing it up.
Like he personally hates that it's still
being talked about.
Yeah. Yeah. No, he's he's in a world of
trouble, but the entire institutions are
in trouble now. Like no one like Jake
Tapper will later write a book about how
no one could have seen this coming. We
all see it coming, Jake. We all see it
coming. All right, Mark. Well, they ran
as outsiders, right? I mean, initially,
it used to suggest this false populism
really was something to sell when Trump
was an outsider and Banino was an
outsider and Patel was an outsider and
they could write these books and do
their podcasts and claim, you know,
those people on the inside. They're
holding it back. It's right here. It's
at the FBI. Are you kidding? That's
where it is. Now, you run the FBI, Cash
Patel, and you guys are all in charge.
And so, you're on super thin ice and you
could release something even with
redactions. So they can redact the hell
out of the thing. They've done that with
other stuff with JFK, with MLK. They
redacted a bunch of stuff. We'd already
seen it before, but they tried to take a
victory lap on how they'd released it.
You're right, Jen. There is something
huge about this. And because it's
something huge, it only gets bigger the
more we wait day after day after day. I
love the idea that they would throw
Bondi under the bus, but that won't be
enough for them to skate away from this.
Yeah. No way. And then the last piece is
what I promised you earlier in the show.
Um, Wired magazine did a terrific piece
about uh the tape that they released.
They said that it was raw footage from
the prison and I was instantly amused
when Pam Bondi explained, "Oh, every
prison tape has a minute missing." Do
they every prison tape does? I'm not
sure that's true at all. Right. To say
the least. All right. So, already it
started out disastrous, but now Wired is
proven not raw edited. edited by Adobe
Premiere Pro. And there they there's two
clearly distinct parts edited together.
Okay. Now, that doesn't mean that they
doctorred it. It doesn't mean that oh,
you know, we know they took out
something incriminating. All we know is
they said it was raw. Definitely not
raw. Definitely edited. And so, we just
don't know how it was edited. We don't
even know if the edit was around the one
minute mark. like that's the edit or it
was a different edit and there's
different ratio problems to the video.
The video is a mess and there is a
theory that oh well look they they were
just trying to clean it up so it looked
presentable right but they actually
released two different videos one that
was more cleaned up and one they called
the raw footage and it turns out the raw
footage isn't raw that one was also
edited. So none of that
the stockpile of stuff that is
associated with the offing of Jeffrey
Epstein. Everything from the removal of
his roommate from the cell to uh well it
turns out one guard was on uh uh was
asleep. The other guard was playing or
or buying something on Amazon. The
cameras didn't work that I mean at what
point do we just understand that
something else went down? There's just
way too much of a constellation of
events here for us to ignore it. Yeah,
last thing. Alex Aosta was the guy who
gave him a light sentence back in 2008.
Remember Epstein got caught earlier and
Aassa basically slap on the wrist. Aosta
later, even though he's a prosecutor,
became the labor secretary for Donald
Trump in his first term. So strange.
There's so many strange things. If you
don't know this, by the way, I I don't
know if this has anything to do with
anything, but you know, Attorney General
Bill Bar's dad was the first person to
hire Jeffrey Epstein. not for it sex as
a math teacher at a private school and
when Jeffrey Epstein didn't even
graduate college. This whole thing about
like he's like a financial genius. He
doesn't know anything about finance.
Okay. Like this is insane. Like did you
know Galileain Maxwell's dad was a
legendary is Israeli spy got a state
funeral. Uh
Yet Rabbine came to it. And did you know
that at one point uh Jeffrey Epstein
said that he works with the CIA and did
you know that Alex Aosta when challenged
this is according to sources it's not he
didn't say it in public or in court but
they said why'd you give him such a
light sentence and he said well the
intelligence agencies told me to
okay so if that source is correct this
thing's we already know what happened we
don't know which intelligence agencies
but obviously the CIA or the our
government is helping either is the
intelligence agency or is helping that
intelligence agency. So the idea that oh
intelligence agencies is like a
conspiracy theory. No, that is a very
reasonable conclusion, an eminently
reasonable conclusion given the evidence
at hand. The idea that there were no
clients cuckoo for cocoa puffs like
that. That's no one on planet Earth
believes that. Every time you ring the
bell below, an angel gets his wings.
Totally not true. But it does keep you
updated on our live shows.

Jul 11, 2025
FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino has reportedly taken the day off work after a fight with Attorney General Pam Bondi about her handling of the "Epstein files." Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola and Mark Thompson discuss on The Young Turks.
Transcript
Even inside of the Trump administration,
prominent members of MAGA are roiling with
this whole Epstein thing. And we want to
start with this guy first because
Bongino apparently got into a big tiff
with Pam Bondi. And as of right now, at
least, he's off the job. He took the day
off, I guess, which is a thing that you
can just do abruptly even when you have
a really important job. And a source
close to Bongino said he ain't coming back,
which is not a guarantee, but sources
are now saying he is considering that if
Pam Bondi doesn't go, he'll go, and I
hope somehow all of them go, but it's not
up to me.
Now, Caitlyn Collins
reports it's accurate that Dan Bongino
has told people he's considering
resigning in a major clash between the
FBI and the DOJ over the fallout from
the Epstein memo. Apparently he got into
it with Bondi about the missing minute
in the tape. And so he apparently
is mad, because he's been taking some of
the blame for not catching the fact that
it had the missing minute before they
put it out. And Bondi's mad at him
because he's been telling the press that
he and Kash Patel have been stopped from
releasing more information about the
Epstein files, but they're not
releasing that additional information.
And he has a lot of power, you know,
unto himself, let alone Kash Patel. And
so people are saying he's not happy with
the way that Pam Bondi has dealt with
the Epstein files. And I think all of
this is fascinating, but I also think
that it's convenient to just
assume, oh wait, maybe Pam Bondi's the
cause of the cover up. And actually Bongino
and Kash Patel, who made a name for
themselves, and tons of money before
entering the administration talking
about this story, they're secretly
fighting the good fight. But the thing
is, they've been participating in the
early steps of this coverup for literally
months. They've been doing those
interviews, and going on with
Joe Rogan, and going on with all these
people, and being like, "I haven't seen
anything, and there's no evidence yet the
guy killed himself." And like maybe they
have an issue with the tape, but what have they been saying
over the past few months, while these
files have been sitting waiting to be
reviewed, they've been like "mums the
word." Any of their public comments I
think, are totally consistent with either
a coverup, or that there is in fact
nothing. And I want everyone to bear
in mind that, just feel free to
disagree, it could be that both of them
are, and always have been true believers
on this stuff. And now they're aghast
at the fact that either nothing is
coming up, in which case one would think
they would perhaps apologize for leading
their audiences on for literally years
as they soaked up the money from it,
or that it is important,
as Jake points out, MAGA 90% in revolt
over this, they're thinking, okay, I
have this great job, and I don't want to
say anything that's going to get Donald
Trump to be mad at me. But Donald
Trump's heart could explode in his chest
in about 6 months, and I would like to
have a media career for the next 20
years. And this is perhaps a moment
where if I'm not seen to be on the right
side of this, that's it for me, and Maga
will never trust me.
Yeah. And we know how powerful audience
capture is for a lot of these people.
And so they have a ton of loyalty for
Trump, but they also desperately want
more mansions and fancy cars in the
years ahead.
[Cenk] Yeah. So that is exactly right. So
there's two different issues here. But
before then, we're doing a poll in the
live chat. Watch the show Monday through
Friday at 6:00. I love you guys
participating in this. And this is now a
really good question. Who's out first?
Bongino, Bondi, or Kash Patel? Uh,
Bongino seems like he's halfway down the
sword, so that's why he's winning. But
Pam Bondi is going to be the scapegoat.
So, let's get into that.
So, the two different issues are why is
Bongino freaking out the way that he is,
going to take the day off, saying
"That's it! I'm considering
resigning." Not just considering
resigning, but apparently telling almost
everyone in the MAGA world,
because there's leaks everywhere, right?
And he's like, "Oh, yeah. I might quit.
Remember I'm the good guy. I might
quit." Right. So, we'll see if he does or
he doesn't. So that's point
one. And the reason he's doing that is
because the MAGA base is like, "Fuck this.

It turns out you're compromised." Look,
