BONUS POD: Media Tried Linking Trump to Epstein — a Phone Call in 2006 Just Blew That Up

from Verdict with Ted Cruz · host iHeartPodcasts

1. Trump’s 2006 Call to Police About Epstein According to a 2019 FBI interview with the Palm Beach police chief, Donald Trump called the chief in 2006, saying: Epstein’s behavior with underage girls was widely known. Ghislaine Maxwell was “evil” and should be investigated. Trump said he left an event when he saw teenagers present and later banned Epstein from Mar‑a‑Lago. 2. Contrast With Media Narratives These details contradict media implications that Trump hid involvement with Epstein. It frames Trump as wanting Epstein stopped early in the investigation. 3. Trump Responds to Questions About Epstein Files During a recent Oval Office exchange, CNN’s Caitlin Collins asked about redactions in released Epstein documents. Trump stated: Too much was released, not too little. The country should “move on.” Nothing incriminating about him emerged. 4. Ghislaine Maxwell’s Congressional Deposition Maxwell appeared virtually before the House Oversight Committee. She invoked the Fifth Amendment for every question, including: Whether she was close to Epstein Whether she helped traffic girls Whether she instructed girls to provide sexual favors Whether she surrounded herself and Epstein with influential people Whether she would name other co‑conspirators Her lawyer stated she is protecting her appeal.
