Summary

Tonight, the Trump-Epstein-Ghislaine triangle of sleaze gets even messier. Ghislaine Maxwell, yes, that Ghislaine, convicted of trafficking minors, has reportedly told the Justice Department she “never saw” Trump do anything concerning with Epstein. Oh great, nothing to worry about then! Just taking the word of a convicted sex trafficker. Totally normal. Meanwhile, Trump’s top aides are huddling behind closed doors tonight to figure out how to spin this disaster. What will the official narrative be? Deny, distract, or gaslight? Or most likely, all three. We’re joined by journalist Tara Palmeri to break down what’s real, what’s spin, and what this all means. This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
