Trump-Epstein latest: DOJ to interview Ghislaine Maxwell as White House bans WSJ from president's travel pool and House speaker punts vote
The fallout continues over the administration's handling of its investigation into the late accused sex trafficker. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said Tuesday that the Department of Justice wants to interview Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend. Maxwell was convicted in 2020 of helping the disgraced financier sexually abuse underage girls and is currently serving a 20-year sentence in federal prison. "If Ghislane Maxwell has information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims, the FBI and the DOJ will hear what she has to say," Blanche said in a statement posted to X, adding that he has reached out to her counsel and anticipates meeting with her "in the coming days." In a statement to the Associated Press, David Oscar Markus, a lawyer for Maxwell, confirmed that they were 'in discussions with the government' and that Maxwell will 'always testify truthfully.' 'We are grateful to President Trump for his commitment to uncovering the truth in this case,' the statement added. Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump said that he did not know about Blanche's overture to Maxwell, but added that it 'sounds appropriate.' 'I didn't know that they were going to do it,' Trump said. 'I don't really follow that too much. It's sort of a witch hunt, just a continuation of the witch hunt.' The Epstein fallout The announcement comes amid a fierce backlash from some of Trump's supporters over the administration's handling of its investigation into Epstein, who died by suicide in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial. Epstein has long been the focus of conspiracy theories that claim Epstein was murdered to conceal the names of powerful people on a secret 'client list.' Trump said he would consider releasing additional government files on Epstein and directed the Justice Department to conduct an exhaustive review of any evidence collected in its investigation. Earlier this month, the DOJ and FBI released a two-page joint memo, concluding that Epstein 'committed suicide in his cell" and had no such 'client list.' The move enraged some Trump loyalists, who accused the president and his administration of breaking their promise to release all of the Epstein files, and put Trump's relationship with Epstein back in the spotlight. White House bans WSJ from travel pool over Epstein report Late last week, the Wall Street Journal reported that Trump sent Epstein a racy birthday letter in 2003. According to the Journal, Trump's letter, along with dozens of others, was part of a leather-bound book put together by Maxwell for the since-disgraced financier's 50th birthday. 'Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret,' Trump's letter concluded in a typewritten message to Epstein, per the Journal. The text was 'framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand-drawn with heavy marker,' the report stated. 'A pair of small arcs denotes the woman's breasts, and the future president's signature is a squiggly 'Donald' below her waist, mimicking pubic hair.' Trump denied the report, calling it 'false, malicious, and defamatory,' and sued the newspaper and its owner, Rupert Murdoch. Also read: What Trump has said about Epstein through the years, from 'terrific guy' to 'creep' that 'nobody cares about' On Monday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that the paper would be excluded from the pool of news organizations covering Trump's upcoming trip to Scotland. 'Thirteen diverse outlets will participate in the press pool to cover the President's trip to Scotland,' Leavitt said in a statement. 'Due to the Wall Street Journal's fake and defamatory conduct, they will not be one of the 13 outlets on board.' The New York Times, a rival newspaper to the Journal, blasted the White House's decision. 'The White House's refusal to let one of the nation's leading news organizations cover the highest office in the country is an attack on core constitutional principles underpinning free speech and free press,' the Times said in a statement. 'Americans regardless of party deserve to know and understand the actions of the president and reporters play a vital role in advancing the public interest. This is simple retribution by a president against a news organization for doing reporting that he doesn't like.' House speaker won't allow Epstein vote before summer recess Late Monday, House Speaker Mike Johnson said he would not allow any votes related to the Epstein matter before the House takes its weekslong summer recess, which begins on Wednesday afternoon. 'My belief is we need the administration to have the space to do what it is doing, and if further congressional action is necessary or appropriate, then we'll look at that,' Johnson told CNN. 'But I don't think we're at that point right now.' Johnson's decision comes despite intense pressure from some members of his own party who are demanding more transparency from the Trump administration on its Epstein investigation. Last week, at least 10 House Republicans joined an effort launched by Kentucky GOP Rep. Thomas Massie and California Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna to force a symbolic vote on the release of more Epstein files. Congress does not have the authority to compel the Justice Department to release the files, but any vote would amount to a loyalty test among House Republicans regarding the Epstein case.

Man, 49, Woman, 57, vandalized Detroit skyscraper with slingshot, prosecutors say
An activist once accused of issuing fake deeds to Detroit Land Bank Authority houses has been charged with numerous felonies after allegedly using a slingshot to damage the entrance of the Guardian Building, the famed art deco skyscraper where the quasi-public agency is based. The Wayne County Prosecutor's Office on Tuesday charged Ramzu Yunus, 49, of Highland Park, with malicious destruction of property in the July 19 incident at 500 Griswold St. Also charged with malicious destruction of property is Angela Tajuan Williams, 57, of Waldorf, Maryland. At 4:45 a.m. on Saturday, July 19, the pair allegedly damaged the building's revolving glass door before fleeing, according to a news release from prosecutor Kym Worthy's office. No one was injured. Additional warrant requests alleging Yunus and Williams vandalized two other Detroit buildings are under review, the prosecutor's office said. The pair were arrested Saturday afternoon when Detroit police conducted a traffic stop on their vehicle downtown, at Madison and Witherell streets, the release said. Officers saw Yunus with an empty holster on his hip and searched his vehicle, finding a handgun with ammunition and a slingshot with metal pellets, the release said. He's been charged also with possession of a firearm by a prohibited person, carrying a concealed weapon, and two counts of felony firearm. Yunus came under fire from Land Bank officials in 2021, after they said he convinced more than a dozen people they were entitled to free houses owned by the agency. More: These Michigan places have French names. How they got them More: GM quietly building EV customer trust as Musk burns it with Tesla Yunus told the media outlet Deadline Detroit at the time that he had issued thousands of 'deeds' and was proud of his efforts, advertised online as the 'Detroit Free Housing Program' by the 'Free Housing Department.' He said the campaign aimed to help Black Detroiters exercise their right to 'self-determination,' adding that many houses had fallen into Land Bank ownership after unjust tax foreclosures. The Detroit Police Department opened an investigation at the time, but it's unclear what came of it. The agency did not immediately respond to a request for comment Tuesday. District court records show he was charged in September 2021 with entering a vacant building without written authorization and that the proceedings stalled after he failed to appear for a hearing in 2022. Court records show no attorneys for Yunus and Williams, and neither could immediately be reached at associated phone numbers. A person who answered an associated number for Williams and identified himself as her brother said of the allegations, "That's not (like) my sister, she's been brain washed.' 'Obviously Detroit has an issue with housing' and 'in theory, (the free housing campaign) sounds good,' said Carlton Williams. 'But it's not a good thing to do, because you'll get arrested."
