I don't think my colleagues are happy about covering up for pedophiles, but that's what's happening. And it's so sick and twisted. The reason they're doing it is because they're terrified of President Trump's political machine, not just his legislative affairs folks are reaching out from the White House to every Republican member of Congress who might think about co-sponsoring this, Massie continued, adding: They're getting calls from the political machine that Donald Trump runs.

James O'Keefe, the Project Veritas founder and longtime pro-MAGA activist, published a clip on Thursday of a Trump Justice Department official claiming that Ghislaine Maxwell was moved to prison to keep her quiet. In the clip, an off-camera woman asks Joseph Schnitt, an acting deputy chief of special operations, about the Epstein Files and Maxwell a convicted sex offender and Jeffrey Epstein accomplice.

On Friday, the DOJ released the audio and transcript of an interview with Maxwell conducted in July by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. That meeting came as President Donald Trump was facing an onslaught of questions about his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, the late child sex trafficker and Maxwell associate. The Trump administration announced it would not release its files relating to Epstein, who officials say died by suicide in a jail cell in 2019.

The US Department of Justice has released the transcript and audio recording of an interview conducted by Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general, with the convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell. In a post on X, Blanche said the materials were being released in the interest of transparency, providing links to the transcript and to audio files. The release includes documentation from a two-day interview conducted on 24 and 25 July.

The Justice Department on Friday released transcripts of interviews its No. 2 official did with Jeffrey Epstein's imprisoned former girlfriend as the Trump administration scrambles to present itself as transparent amid a fierce backlash over an earlier refusal to disclose a trove of records from the sex-trafficking case. The disclosure represents the latest Trump administration effort to repair self-inflicted political wounds after failing to deliver on expectations that its own officials had created through conspiracy theories and bold pronouncements that never came to pass.

According to US Department of Justice data, females accounted for only about 8 percent of arrests for sex offenses against minors, and the U.S. Sentencing Commission (2021) reports that 93 percent of offenders were men.
