- 3:05Speaker 2: Story number one.
- 3:07Speaker 3: Donald Trump called the police about Jeffrey Epstein, we now
- 3:11Speaker 3: are learning in two thousand and six, he also said
- 3:15Speaker 3: that Maxwell was flat out evil.
- 3:18Speaker 4: Donald Trump telling the Palm Beach.
- 3:20Speaker 3: Police chief, quote, everyone knew about Epstein, and Maxwell is
- 3:26Speaker 3: an evil woman.
- 3:27Speaker 4: Now.
- 3:28Speaker 3: In two thousand and six, just as Jeffrey Epstein's criminal
- 3:31Speaker 3: sex charge became public, Trump apparently called then Palm Beach
- 3:36Speaker 3: police chief to tell him that Epstein's activities with teenage
- 3:39Speaker 3: girls were well known in both New York and Palm Beach.
- 3:43Speaker 3: Thank goodness, you're stopping him. Everyone has known he's been
- 3:47Speaker 3: doing this. Trump told the police chief that, according to
- 3:51Speaker 3: a twenty nineteen FBI interview with the police chief contained
- 3:57Speaker 3: in the Justice Department's Epstein case. Now, the interview, conducted
- 4:02Speaker 3: in October of nineteen and not previously reported, has shed
- 4:06Speaker 3: new light on what Donald Trump knew about Epstein in
- 4:09Speaker 3: the early stages of the investigation in Palm Beach, Florida.
- 4:14Speaker 3: It also makes it clear that Donald Trump wanted to
- 4:17Speaker 3: stop Epstein. The FBI agents that were sitting with the
- 4:22Speaker 3: palmb police chief said that Trump revealed that Epstein's associate
- 4:27Speaker 3: Maxwell was Epstein's operative, and that Trump said she is
- 4:32Speaker 3: evil and to focus on her. Clearly, Donald Trump was
- 4:36Speaker 3: absolutely right. Trump told the police chief reportedly that he
- 4:40Speaker 3: was around Epstein once when teenagers were present, and Trump
- 4:45Speaker 3: got the hell out of there. The report states. Trump
- 4:48Speaker 3: also told the police chief that he threw Epstein out
- 4:51Speaker 3: of his Marlago club. That stands in sharp contrast to
- 4:56Speaker 3: what the media has been reporting on Donald Trump implying
- 4:59Speaker 3: that they were was something to hide, Which brings us back.
- 5:02Speaker 4: To the White House Oval office.
- 5:05Speaker 3: Just the other day, when the President of the United
- 5:07Speaker 3: States of America was asked about the Epstein files and
- 5:11Speaker 3: the new documents that have been released, and CNN's Caitlin
- 5:15Speaker 3: Collins decided to use the moment to try to attack Trump.
- 5:19Speaker 4: Listen carefully.
- 5:20Speaker 5: A lot of women who were are survivors of Epstein's
- 5:23Speaker 5: are unhappy with those redactions that came out. Some of
- 5:25Speaker 5: them entire witness interviews are totally blocked out. Do you
- 5:28Speaker 5: think that they can be more transparent?
- 5:30Speaker 6: They thought they released too much. I heard that, and
- 5:33Speaker 6: you're tell me something else. I think it's really time
- 5:35Speaker 6: for the country to get onto something else. And now
- 5:38Speaker 6: that nothing came out about me other than it was
- 5:42Speaker 6: a conspiracy against me, literally by Epstein and other people.
- 5:47Speaker 6: But I think it's time now for the country to
- 5:49Speaker 6: maybe get onto something else. Would people something that people
- 5:55Speaker 6: care about? You know what, what did you say to.
- 6:00Speaker 5: Jeff worst reporter?
- 6:01Speaker 6: No one to see she has no ratings because of
- 6:04Speaker 6: people like you. You know, she's a young woman. I
- 6:06Speaker 6: don't think I've ever seen you smile. I've known you
- 6:08Speaker 6: for ten years. I don't think I've ever seen a
- 6:11Speaker 6: smile on you. You know why, you know why you're
- 6:14Speaker 6: not smiling because you know you're not telling the truth
- 6:17Speaker 6: and you're a very dishonest organization and they should be
- 6:21Speaker 6: ashamed of you.
- 6:23Speaker 3: The president of the United States of America, making it
- 6:25Speaker 3: very clear that he's not backing down. And it's obvious
- 6:29Speaker 3: now that he was standing up to the corruption of
- 6:32Speaker 3: Jeffrey Epstein and pointing the police chief in the direction
- 6:36Speaker 3: of the woman that everyone is hoping to hear from,
- 6:39Speaker 3: and pointing him in the right direction of Maxwell, who
- 6:42Speaker 3: clearly knew exactly what was going on and was clearly
- 6:45Speaker 3: putting it all together for Jeffrey Epstein. This is another
- 6:49Speaker 3: example of Donald Trump telling the truth and the media
- 6:52Speaker 3: now wanting to make sure you don't know about this
- 6:55Speaker 3: story at all.
- 6:56Speaker 2: Now, story number two.
- 6:58Speaker 3: There is one woman that everybody wants to hear from,
- 7:01Speaker 3: and her name is Maxwell. You know her is the
- 7:04Speaker 3: right hand madam of Jeffrey Epstein. She finally had her
- 7:09Speaker 3: moment in front of the GOP House Oversight Committee. They
- 7:13Speaker 3: release the audio of that interaction, and you are going
- 7:17Speaker 3: to be able to hear Maxwell plead the fifth During
- 7:20Speaker 3: her deposition, she was asked if she was a close
- 7:24Speaker 3: friend of Epstein, if she helped him traffic girls, and
- 7:28Speaker 3: if she instructed girls provide sexual favors, among other questions,
- 7:33Speaker 3: and you're going to hear exactly what she had to say.
- 7:37Speaker 5: Take a listen, Miss Maxwell, were you a close friend
- 7:40Speaker 5: and confidant of Jeffrey Epstein.
- 7:44Speaker 7: I would like to answer your question, but on the
- 7:46Speaker 7: advice of Council, I respectfully declined to answer this question

- 9:27Speaker 5: Miss Maxwell, Did you and Jeffrey Epstein attempt to surround
- 9:30Speaker 5: yourselves with influential individuals to courage favor and shield yourselves

- 9:58Speaker 5: Miss Maxwell, You please provide us with all the names
- 10:02Speaker 5: of other additional co conspirators to the crimes perpetuated by
- 10:06Speaker 5: you and Jeffrey Fstein.
- 10:08Speaker 8: I invote my Fifth Amendment right to silence.

- 10:23Speaker 5: the answer will incriminate you?
- 10:26Speaker 8: I invote my Fifth Amendment right to silence?
- 10:29Speaker 5: Miss Maxwell? Is it your intention to answer every question
- 10:32Speaker 5: put to you by the committee today with the assertion
- 10:35Speaker 5: of your Fifth Amendment right against self incrimination?
- 10:39Speaker 8: I invote my Fifth Amendment right to silence.
- 10:42Speaker 5: The answer to that is yes.
- 10:43Speaker 2: Also, so, just as her lawyer, I'll tell you yes,
- 10:45Speaker 2: that's her intention.
- 10:47Speaker 3: Total silence. Now, this is why so many people are upset.
- 10:52Speaker 3: She pleads the fifth on her Epstein trafficking questions. And yes,
- 10:57Speaker 3: there are people that are very angry because, according to reports,
- 11:00Speaker 3: Maxwell was deposed virtually by the House Oversight Committee. The answer,
- 11:05Speaker 3: straight up, was she a close friend of Jeffrey Epstein.
- 11:08Speaker 3: We all know the answer to that. She wouldn't even
- 11:11Speaker 3: answer that. Did she help traffic girls? We all know
- 11:15Speaker 3: the answer that from the evidence. She wouldn't answer that question.
- 11:19Speaker 3: Did she tell those girls to provide sexual favors. We
- 11:22Speaker 3: know from the evidence and the victim statements she wouldn't
- 11:25Speaker 3: answer that question. Now, she's already serving twenty years for
- 11:29Speaker 3: exactly this stuff, but her lawyer says she's protecting her appeal.
- 11:35Speaker 3: Lawmakers on both sides are walking away from this empty handed.
- 11:39Speaker 3: And the question now is what happens next and when
- 11:43Speaker 3: will others besides Maxwell go to jail for their crimes?
- 11:48Speaker 3: That is what so many Americans are asking. The President
- 11:52Speaker 3: of United States of America is also absolutely right. What
- 11:55Speaker 3: the media has done is not investigate this but try
- 11:57Speaker 3: to use a conspiracy to attack Donald Trump, And now
- 12:01Speaker 3: we know exactly what he was doing, going to the
- 12:04Speaker 3: authorities and telling them to look at Maxwell, the same
- 12:08Speaker 3: woman that will answer none of these questions.
