The Department of Justice released a slew of audio files Friday afternoon from an interview with alleged Jeffery Epstein accomplice and former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell.

“The audio is divided into segments to reflect breaks during the interview. Some segments are shorter than others. Shorter segments are a result of audio tests and size limitations per recorded session. Except for the names of victims, every word is included. Nothing removed. Nothing hidden,” Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said about the release.
According to the interviews, Maxwell told investigators President Donald Trump was never involved with Epstein’s sex trafficking enterprise and was “never inappropriate with anybody.” Trump and Epstein were friends in the early 2000s before Trump broke off the friendship 20 years ago. Maxwell also said there is no “Epstein list” or Epstein client files.

Documents have also been delivered to Congress.
🚨🚨🚨
The Trump Department of Justice has just delivered thousands of pages of Epstein-related documents to the Oversight Committee.
The Trump DOJ is moving at a pace far faster than anything ever produced by the Biden DOJ.
