For clarification, there is nothing troubling about the "court filing" of Plaintiff Rina Oh Amen v Giuffre under the filing number Case 1:21-cv-08839-NRB referenced in the tweet. Plaintiff (Amen) filed a civil suit against Defendant (Giuffre) for defamation/slander in late 2021.

It's the attached video part of the tweet/X dated July 14 by Inner City Press naming parties attending a United Nations meeting with GMax, and that has nothing to do with the civil suit referenced above, that is strange! MOO

A powerful story by survivor Jess Michaels, who had one encounter with JE -- as told to Katie Couric. This interview was from three months ago, and I came across it randomly, but I'm really glad I did. Jess was 22, and she could be any one of us.

President Trump said Friday that he will direct Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s past involvement with a number of Democrats, including former President Clinton.

Trump cast his decision as an effort to fight back at Democrats, who the president argued have used the disgraced financier as a weapon against his White House.

DOJ opening a new investigation is a delay tactic to prevent the Epstein files being released any time soon. PB will cite "an ongoing investigation" that precludes releasing the files. JMO

Could another Saturday Night Massacre if ‘73 redux be on the horizon?
Reading Heather Cox Richardson’s daily news always an enlightening peek

Saturday Night Massacre of ‘73 revealed how Nixon's desire to suppress evidence could only mean one thing -- Consciousness of Guilt. Tangentially every Attorney General since John Mitchell (with the possible exception of Bondi) has tried to not act like Mitchell nor wind up, uhhh, in jail.

A good lesson for history to teach us.

A bit more recently, Trump's first impeachment was all about telling Ukraine's president to get the Ukraine DOJ to launch an investigation. There was a bit of carrot-and-stick to go with it. What are Bondi and Blanche's core principles? The Constitution? Or carrot and stick?

Workers at the Texas federal prison camp housing Jeffrey Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell have been fired for leaking emails in which she described the cushy conditions — and the Democratic lawmaker who purportedly made them public should be punished too, her attorney said in a fiery statement Friday.
(…)
“The congressman is a ranking member of the House Oversight [actually Judiciary] Committee, an attorney and law professor. He must be aware that his conduct undermines the whole legal process,” Saffian said. “His action should be a matter for professional disciplinary action.”

Prison fires staff who leaked Ghislaine Maxwell emails — and lawyer wants punishment for Jamie Raskin

An attorney for Maxwell rebuked Rep. Jamie Raskin for allegedly leaking the emails to media — calling it a “denial of justice” that “undermines the whole legal process.”

President Trump said Sunday that House Republicans should vote to release the files related to late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — a surprising reversal after previously dissuading the GOP from backing the measure.

“House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party,” he wrote on Truth Social Sunday evening.

A discharge petition for the House to vote to force the Justice Department to release all additional Epstein files received its final signature on Wednesday.

President Donald Trump made the statement as the House is set to vote on the files this week after a discharge petition forces a floor vote.

President Donald Trump on Sunday called on House Republicans to support the release of files related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, dramatically changing course on a flashpoint issue he has long opposed.

“House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Just last week, Trump had called the efforts to release the files a “hoax,” saying Democrats were bringing them up to “deflect how badly they’ve done on the Shutdown.”...

This is only because he knew that he lost control of the vote. Couldn't force Boebert, Mace, or Greene to retract their votes on the discharge petition. It's a strategy to look like he's being transparent.

They made it veto-proof, he didn't have a choice.

I'm pleased with the overwhelming votes to release. Now I await the excuses in delaying the release. JMO.

Pam Bondi will likely say that there is an "ongoing investigation", at the President's request, so the files cannot be released at this time. Delay. Delay. Delay. Highly unlikely that the Epstein files will be made public anytime soon. JMO

'Whistleblower' who provided House Democrats with Ghislaine Maxwell documents speaks out

Two former employees at Federal Prison Camp Bryan said they contacted Judiciary Committee staffers to voice their concerns about perceived misconduct and retaliation.

www.nbcnews.com

A whistleblower who came forward to House Democrats alleging convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell received preferential treatment at a federal prison camp in Texas says she was not motivated by politics.

Instead, “this was about common human decency and doing what’s right for all inmates,” Noella Turnage, a nurse who worked at Federal Prison Camp Bryan since 2019 until she was fired last week, told NBC News on Monday.

She added that when even one inmate is wrongly retaliated against, “and influence gets another one protected, somebody had to say something.”...
