“The Ministry of Justice turns to Ghislaine Maxwell with the question: What do you know?”, The Deputy Minister of Justice Todd Blanche had previously written in online service X. Maxwell was convicted of Epstein as a member of a sex trade ring at the end of 2021 and is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence in the US state of Florida.
Trump has come under pressure in his own warehouse because his government did not bring light into the Epstein scandal as promised. The US investment banker was accused of misused numerous girls and young women. The billionaire was found hanged in his prison cell in New York in 2019.
Trump’s Minister of Justice Pam Bondi initially spoke of a list of prominent “customers” of Epstein, but then contested their existence in early July. In order to calm the subsequent turmoil of his supporters, Trump had given the prospect of the disclosure of legal documents last week. This has not yet been made. Trump also left Trump unanswered questions about his own, earlier close relationship with Epstein.
The US President again described the occupation with the Epstein case on Tuesday as a “witch hunt”. Instead, the media should rather report on the misconduct of former President Barack Obama (2009 to 2017), he said at a reception for the Filipino President Ferdinand Marcos in the White House. Obama was guilty of the “treason” and was “leader of a gang”, Trump claimed without providing evidence.
In 2016, Obama ordered an investigation into Russia with the aim of stealing the election victory for himself, Trump continued. On Sunday, the US President had shared a fake video in which you can see how Obama is arrested.
