Trump demurred again at another point during his exchange with journalists, saying it was an ongoing investigation. Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in helping Epstein sexually abuse underage women, is meeting Friday for the second day with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. Blanche, who previously served as Trump's personal attorney, set the meeting amid mounting pressure on the administration to release additional documents related to the case. Critics of the president — and even some congressional allies — have warned against Trump offering a pardon to Maxwell, saying it could prompt her to mislead investigators.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, a Kentucky Republican, told CNN this week that any request for a pardon should be 'off the table' and that he did not believe any fellow GOP members would support it. In recent days, the Wall Street Journal has reported that Trump is mentioned among scores of other business and political figures in the Justice Department's Epstein files, while stressing that inclusion did not mean that individuals were involved in criminal activity. The paper also reported that the president at one point wrote Epstein a letter with a drawing and personal message for a birthday book that was prepared for the late financier. Trump has denied the letter and filed a lawsuit against Dow Jones & Co., News Corp. and Rupert Murdoch for libel over their report. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Trump told reporters on Friday that he trusted Blanche in his conversations with Maxwell, calling the Justice Department official a 'professional lawyer.' 'I think he's been through things like this before,' Trump said. But the president also expressed frustration with the focus on his relationship with Epstein, saying the media should focus on other individuals and that he had 'nothing to do with the guy.' 'I never went to the island,' Trump said, appearing to refer to properties in the Caribbean that belonged to Epstein and where it is alleged that the financier sexually abused and trafficked young women. 'You should focus on some of the hedge fund guys. I'll give you a list,' Trump said. 'These guys lived with Jeffrey Epstein, I sure as hell didn't.'

The NFL is fining about 100 players and two dozen club employees for violating league policy by selling Super Bowl 59 tickets for above face value, a person with knowledge of the details told The Associated Press on Friday. The person, speaking to the AP on condition of anonymity because of the ongoing investigation, said the players who resold their tickets will have to pay a fine of 1 1/2 times the face value they paid. They also won't be permitted to buy tickets for the next two Super Bowls unless they are playing in the game.
