Speaker 1 (00:00):
Jersey and Amanda jam Nason. Are there any questions. Well,
as we know the White House, President Trump has been
under a lot of pressure to release the Epstein files.
Some are saying that's why there've been all these visits
with Putin, etc. Distraction, distraction those that's what the critics
are saying, because none of the information has been released.

(00:22):
Very interestingly, Gallaine Maxwell has been interviewed by the Department
of Justice, who've just released the transcripts of that interview.
There's some cynicism and I'm one of those cynical people
around this her interview with the Department of Justice. I'll
talk about why that was not the usual way these
things are done. But in light of that interview, she's

(00:42):
been moved from a high security Florida prison for men
and women to an all female minimum security prison in
Texas known for its arts and crafts programs. So her
security has been downgraded. She has been moved to an
easier prison, although the government is saying no, we are
not promising anything to her. We're just asking her to

(01:04):
be interviewed. So here's what's happened. She was interviewed by
the Department the Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, a high
ranking Department of Justice official who happens to be a
formal personal lawyer of President Trump's. So President Trump and
no one would dispute this has got rid of a
lot of people from the Department of Justice who he
felt weren't on his side. So this is no longer

(01:26):
a separate entity to the Oval Office. This is almost
an arm of the Oval Office. So the decision for
this man his name is Todd Blanche to conduct this
interview personally was widely criticized as highly unorthodox. Legal experts
have said that nothing have said that this high level
involvement with no FBI agents or investigators is highly unusual

(01:50):
and could undermine any of the any of the evidence.
There's no rigor around it. So they're saying that the
lack of the FBI being present or sworn investigators undermines
the reliability of this interview. Having such a high level
politician and a political appointee of Donald Trump's conduct this

(02:10):
interview rather than career Department of Justice prosecutors or agents
has raised concerns about potential political motivations. So let's put
that aside and let's see what we've discovered. Through this interview,
the transcripts of which have been released. It won't surprise
you to hear that she did not bear witness or
hear anything improper or illegal, no activity by any of

(02:34):
the prominent people previously linked to Epstein. How interesting. So
she saw Donald Trump, she never saw him having a massage.
She just knew he was friends with Epstein. She has
em bringing other things. Bill Clinton doesn't remember him getting
massage as nothing, Prince Andrew all of that photographic evidence
was doctored, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. She said, I have never

(02:55):
recruited a massuse from marra A Lago. I don't ever
recollect doing that. Interesting. Donald Trump himself has said recently
he had a falling out with Epstein because Epstein was
recruiting marsus's from marra A Lago, one of whom was
Virginia Guffray. That's right, he recently deceased. That's right. So
Maxwell says she has no memory at all of doing that.

(03:18):
She when talking about Trump, she's, I don't know how
they met. I don't know how they became friends. I
saw them together. I remember the few times I observed
them together. They were friendly, They seemed friendly, nothing untoward happened,
So all the people who've been the high ranking people,
prominent people who've been accused of inappropriate behavior are all,
according to her, in the clear. This, of course, has

(03:41):
outraged the many the scores of women who have told
a different story about Galaine Maxwell trafficking them and the
people they were expected to perform for the family of
Virginia Gouffrey have said, we are outraged. The content of
these transcripts is in direct contradiction with felon Gallaine Maxwell's
conviction for child sex trafficking. During this bizarre interview, She's

(04:06):
never challenged about her court proven lies, providing her a
platform to rewrite history. They've also said this, if our
sister could speak today, she would be most angered by
the fact that the government is listening to a known perjurer,
a woman who repeatedly lied under oath and will continue
to do so as long as it benefits her position,
her family said in their statement. So they said this

(04:30):
is she is a monster who deserves to rot in
prison for the rest of her life. So this once
again tries to make liars out of all those women
who told the same story and had been vindicated with
these convictions. And she doesn't think that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself,
that's the only What does she say about that? Or

(04:53):
she just said he does not kill himself. This was
a failing of the prison system right as she's got
hot and cold running crafts in minut Now I'm off
to do some pottery. Nothing to see, so let's all
stop looking. People
