Sure, Jan: Melania pops up with a very convenient Epstein denial
I mean Glass! George Glass!
Melania Trump, who almost never speaks publicly unless absolutely necessary, suddenly stepped up to the cameras to deny ties to Jeffrey Epstein, who appears in released documents as a possible link in how she met Donald Trump, and to do it right as fresh scrutiny starts building again.
“I am not Epstein’s victim,” Melania Trump said. “Epstein did not introduce me to [President] Donald Trump.” It was not immediately clear why the first lady was addressing this issue publicly. But included in the Epstein files released by the Justice Department was a heavily redacted FBI interview that included the claim Epstein introduced the Trumps.
“I have never had any knowledge of Epstein’s abuse of his victims,” she continued. “I was never involved in any capacity.”
The first lady asked Congress “to act” and hold public hearings allowing Epstein victims to testify.
Unsurprisingly, Mrs. Trump asks for the victims to be allowed to testify, rather than to hear from the men implicated in the crimes. Perhaps she just wants more time with her loving husband.
When someone breaks their silence this carefully, this late, and this on-script, it’s probably less about clearing things up and more about getting ahead of what she knows is coming next.
It almost seems plausible if you ignore all of the photos containing her and Epstein and Maxwell. Along with the orange pedo protector. If you ignore all that maybe she is being truthful.
There's a stinky wad of missing information about Melania's press statement. Something is coming that she's trying to get ahead of.
There's a comment here [1] (no not by me. but rather someone more aware) which has multiple point about this. 1. Who Actually Wrote Her Statement And Why, 2. Creating Space [between her and her husband] — Why? 3. Why Care For Victims [now]? 4. Lawsuits are on the horizon ...
