Several staffers at the prison where Ghislaine Maxwell is currently serving out her sentence have been fired after illegally breaking into and stealing her private emails. They handed the emails to Democrat Rep. Jamie Raskin, who in turn, leaked them to the media and penned an urgent letter to President Trump claiming Maxwell was about to ask him for a commutation. We brought you that report several days ago: REPORT: Ghislaine Maxwell to Seek Commutation from President Trump However, as it turns out, it was all just fake news. Maxwell's attorney Leah Saffian says that Rep. Raskin's implication that she will seek a commutation of her sentence is a straight-up lie. She is, however, currently working on a habeas corpus petition. Here's Leah Saffian's full statement: BREAKING: Staff at Ghislaine Maxwell's prison were fired for leaking attorney-client emails to Democrats, and Maxwell plans to soon file a habeas petition challenging her imprisonment. pic.twitter.com/51KVx5lERq — The General (@GeneralMCNews) November 14, 2025 In case that's hard to read, here's the full text: The release to the media by Congressman Raskin (Dem., Maryland), of Ms. Maxwell’s privileged client-attorney email correspondence with me is as improper as it is a denial of justice. Congressman Raskin is a Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee, an attorney and law professor. He must be aware that his conduct undermines the whole legal process. His action should be a matter for professional disciplinary action. There have been appropriate consequences already for employees at Federal Prison Camp Bryan. They have been terminated for improper, unauthorized access to the email system used by the Federal Bureau of Prisons to allow inmates to communicate with the outside world. The provision of those emails to a federal official who then caused them to be shared with the media is a breach of constitutional protections including the First, Sixth and Fourteenth amendments afforded to all prisoners. Dressing the improper action up as ‘Whistleblower Information’ does not mitigate the fact that the mails were both illegally obtained and put to unconstitutional purpose. It is clear that no effort to fact check the credibility or veracity of the so called “whistleblower” was made by the Representative or his offices. For Rep. Raskin to seek to make political capital from such publication and from the content of personal emails between Ms. Maxwell and a family member is both shocking and reprehensible. Regrettably, this is just the latest example of Ms. Maxwell's constitutional and human rights being ridden roughshod over. This began in July 2020 with her two years of torturous incarceration in solitary isolation and suicide watch at the infamous MDC Brooklyn, followed by more than three years at FCI Tallahassee, an institution that the DOJ's own Inspector General (DOJ-OIG) on independent investigation found to be filled with black mold, with inmate food contaminated with rodent droppings and infested with insects. Ms. Maxwell will shortly be filing a Habeas petition with the Federal District Court (SDNY). Habeas petitions are distinct from petitions to the Supreme Court, in that they relate to prisoners’ rights and conviction challenges. Contrary to Rep. Raskin’s assertion, Ms. Maxwell has not requested a commutation – or made a Pardon – application to the second Trump Administration. Prior to any such application a Prisoner needs to demonstrate that all possible avenues of appeal have been exhausted. In Ms. Maxwell’s case, her Habeas petition provides the court with material evidence not available at her trial in November–December 2021. In the four years since the verdict new evidence has indeed come to light – and is continuing to do so. The Habeas petition demonstrates that had this evidence been available it would have had a material impact on the trial’s outcome. It also demonstrates unequivocally that significant government – and juror – misconduct occurred pre-, during and post- trial, making the verdict at the very least unsafe. It shows that Ms. Maxwell has every right to expect rapid and meaningful relief from the court, thus potentially obviating the need for any further action relating to her imprisonment. Leaking privileged attorney-client emails is a violation of the First, Sixth, and Fourteenth Amendment. If prison workers are getting fired over this, then I have to ask: why hasn't Rep. Raskin faced any consequences yet? Of course, Raskin claims to have done nothing wrong and is framing the prison employees as "whistleblowers." Per The Hill: Raskin’s team would also not comment on any dismissals but cast any effort to do so as a silencing of staff who spoke out against preferential treatment in alleging Maxwell was receiving customs meals and had access to staff-only areas. “To protect the identity of whistleblowers we won’t comment on any information that could identify whistleblowers, including whistleblowers’ employment status. Any effort by BOP to intimidate, silence, or retaliate against anyone, including inmates and staff with information on Ms. Maxwell’s outrageous preferential treatment is unacceptable,” a spokesperson for Democrats on the committee said in a statement. “Judiciary Democrats will continue to demand answers and expose the truth as we get to the bottom of the effort to cover up this Administration’s obscene coddling of a convicted sexual trafficker and abuser.” Saffian said the disclosure of the email was a violation of her client’s rights, including attorney-client privilege. “Dressing the improper action up as ‘Whistleblower Information’ does not mitigate the fact that the mails were both illegally obtained and put to unconstitutional purpose,” she wrote, deceiving it as “privileged client-attorney email correspondence.” Your thoughts?

The newly released ‘Epstein files’ have been a total nothing-burger as far as President Trump is concerned. But, these new documents have also revealed something that is potentially damning for a Democrat Congress member and the party at large… It appears that Jeffrey Epstein was texting with Democrat Del. Stacey Plaskett during ex-Trump attorney Michael Cohen’s congressional testimony in 2019. Here are the details: Backup here if needed: WOW! It was just exposed that Jeffrey Epstein was texting a DEMOCRAT member of Congress during a 2019 hearing while they questioned Pres. Trump’s former attorney. Stacey Plaskett. Looks like Epstein was coaching her. Will the Left ignore this?pic.twitter.com/FyV2qNzQQc — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) November 15, 2025 Sure enough, Del. Plaskett received donations from Jeffrey Epstein, which she only reluctantly returned after being criticized for keeping them even in the wake of his 2019 conviction. In the texts, Epstein basically coached Del. Plaskett real-time during Cohen’s testimony. Newsweek broke down the contents of Epstein’s alleged text messages to Del. Plaskett: The messages do not show Plaskett engaging in wrongdoing but suggest Epstein may have attempted to draw her attention to parts of Cohen’s remarks in real time. Epstein, who had been a sex offender since 2008, appeared to be monitoring the hearing closely and commenting as Plaskett prepared to question President Donald Trump’s former attorney and “fixer.” In the texts, Epstein highlighted Cohen’s mention of former Trump aide Rhona Graff, calling her the “keeper of the secrets.” Minutes later, the unnamed recipient wrote, “Quick I’m up next,” just before beginning her questioning. Epstein responded with “Good work” shortly after the lawmaker finished. His messages also included personal asides, like asking, “Are you chewing?” after cameras briefly showed Plaskett moving her mouth during the hearing, the Post reported. The recipient replied that she were chewing the inside of her mouth, describing it as a long-standing habit. Epstein later offered unsolicited strategic observations and noted that Cohen had “opened the door” to further inquiries about Trump Organization “henchmen,” suggesting he was following the exchange minute by minute. Plaskett declined to answer questions about the texts when reached by the Post. Her chief of staff told the outlet she was “not in a position to confirm or not confirm” whether the congresswoman was communicating with Epstein. Newsweek reached out to Plaskett’s office for comment via email Friday night. The messages were part of a large batch of Epstein’s emails and communications released this week by the House Oversight Committee. For decades, Epstein owned two private islands in the U.S. Virgin Islands—Little Saint James and Great Saint James—which prosecutors later described as central hubs in his sex-trafficking operations. A lawsuit filed by the Virgin Islands government, later settled, alleged that many of Epstein’s crimes occurred on Little Saint James. He also sought to wield political influence locally, donating to officials and cultivating relationships that allowed him to maintain standing in the territory. Plaskett previously faced scrutiny over donations linked to Epstein. After initially resisting calls to return contributions following his 2019 arrest, she later returned them amid public backlash. In 2023, six Epstein accusers sued several Virgin Islands officials, including Plaskett, alleging they benefited from his activities. The suit against her was voluntarily dismissed with prejudice earlier this year. Her attorney said Plaskett learned of Epstein’s crimes at the same time the public did, when news of his federal arrest became widely known. Of course, this is arousing suspicion about whether or not Del. Plaskett, as well as other members of our government, were bought and paid for by Epstein himself… Epstein fed Democrat Rep. Stacey Plaskett questions during a congressional hearing in 2019. This has been a hoax from the beginning. Democrats conspired with the pedophile himself against President Trump. pic.twitter.com/SrdrAlJtGh — RNC Research (@RNCResearch) November 15, 2025 This is the question we’re all asking right now: Just how deep were the Epstein ties with our government? — Rick Powell (@RickPow56149999) November 15, 2025 But, of course, Plaskett denies this. She is attempting to downplay the text messages, claiming that she harbors deep “disgust” for Epstein and received texts from many members of the public during the hearing. CNN shared a statement from Plaskett’s spokesperson: “During the hearing, Congresswoman Plaskett received texts from staff, constituents and the public at large offering advice, support and in some cases partisan vitriol, including from Epstein,” Plaskett’s spokesperson, Angeline Jabbar, said in a statement to CNN. “As a former prosecutor she welcomes information that helps her get at the truth and took on the GOP that was trying to bury the truth. The congresswoman has previously made clear her long record combating sexual assault and human trafficking, her disgust over Epstein’s deviant behavior and her support for his victims.” At the very least, this needs to be deeply investigated. It remains to be seen if the left will call for a full investigation, or just try to sweep this one under the rug, too… Your thoughts?

President Trump withdrew his endorsement of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Friday evening. Trump in a post on Truth Social wrote, “I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of “Congresswoman” Marjorie Taylor Greene, of the Great State of Georgia.” He added, ““Wacky” Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN! ” The Hill reported more on trump pulling his endorsement: President Trump late Friday announced he is pulling his endorsement and support of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and would support a primary challenge against her — a major escalation of their growing beef after months of the House Republican criticizing fellow GOP members and the commander in chief himself. “I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene, of the Great State of Georgia,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, adding that despite his record, “all I see ‘Wacky’ Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!” Trump in the post called Greene a “ranting lunatic” and that she has “gone Far Left.” The un-endorsement came days after a discharge petition to force a vote on a bill directing the Department of Justice to release files related to Jeffrey Epstein got enough signatures to succeed. Greene was one of four Republicans to sign on, in spite of fierce objections of Trump. Greene’s split from the president she had once adamantly supported started months earlier, after Trump discouraged Greene earlier this year from running for statewide office in Georgia, which Trump confirmed in the post.

And of course he’s coming after me hard to make an example to scare all the other Republicans before next weeks vote to release the Epstein files. It’s astonishing really how hard he’s fighting to stop the Epstein files from coming out that he actually goes to this level. But really most Americans wish he would fight this hard to help the forgotten men and women of America who are fed up with foreign wars and foreign causes, are going broke trying to feed their families, and are losing hope of ever achieving the American dream. That’s what I voted for. I have supported President Trump with too much of my precious time, too much of my own money, and fought harder for him even when almost all other Republicans turned their back and denounced him. But I don’t worship or serve Donald Trump. I worship God, Jesus is my savior, and I serve my district GA14 and the American people. I remain the same today as I’ve always been and I will continue to pray this administration will be successful because the American people desperately deserve what they voted for.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) on Saturday said a “hot bed of threats” against her are being “fueled and egged on” by President Trump. “I am now being contacted by private security firms with warnings for my safety as a hot bed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world. The man I supported and helped get elected. Aggressive rhetoric attacking me has historically led to death threats and multiple convictions of men who were radicalized by the same type rhetoric being directed at me right now. This time by the President of the United States,” Greene said. “As a woman I take threats from men seriously. I now have a small understanding of the fear and pressure the women, who are victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his cabal, must feel. As a Republican, who overwhelmingly votes for President Trump‘s bills and agenda, his aggression against me which also fuels the venomous nature of his radical internet trolls (many of whom are paid), this is completely shocking to everyone,” Greene continued. “My phone is blowing up with constant amazing support. I’m so thankful! The Political Industrial Complex and the toxic violent nature of American politics must end. Our country is worth saving and it can only be done if we pull together and save ourselves,” she added.

Marjorie Taylor Greene (@RepMTG) November 15, 2025 Newsweek shared: The public break between Trump and Greene, a Georgia Republican, marks a rare and significant fissure within the MAGA movement. Greene has served as one of Trump’s most influential surrogates, amplifying his message across the hard-right base and shaping grassroots activism. Recently, however, she has been among the GOP’s most outspoken internal critics, especially on foreign policy and the Jeffrey Epstein files, in which she signed onto a petition to force a vote to release them. Trump has dismissed renewed attention to the case as “the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax” and claimed Democrats were reviving it to distract from their handling of the government shutdown and other issues. Greene’s accusation follows Trump withdrawing his endorsement for her, suggesting he would support a primary opponent. President Trump Says He Would Support Primary Against “Wacky” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene “Over the past few weeks, despite my creating Record Achievements for our Country including, a Total and Complete Victory on the Shutdown, Closed Borders, Low Taxes, No Men in Women’s Sports or Transgender for Everyone, ending DEI, stopping Biden’s Record Setting Inflation, Biggest Regulation Cuts in History, stopping EIGHT WARS, rebuilding our Military, being RESPECTED by every Country in the World (as opposed to being the laughingstock that we were just 12 months ago!), having Trillions of Dollars (Record Setting!) INVESTED in the U.S.A., and having created the ‘HOTTEST’ Country anywhere in the World from being a DEAD Country just 12 months ago (and so much more!), all I see ‘Wacky’ Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!” Trump said on Truth Social. “It seemed to all begin when I sent her a Poll stating that she should not run for Senator, or Governor, she was at 12%, and didn’t have a chance (unless, of course, she had my Endorsement — which she wasn’t about to get!). She has told many people that she is upset that I don’t return her phone calls anymore, but with 219 Congressmen/women, 53 U.S. Senators, 24 Cabinet Members, almost 200 Countries, and an otherwise normal life to lead, I can’t take a ranting Lunatic’s call every day,” Trump continued. “I understand that wonderful, Conservative people are thinking about primarying Marjorie in her District of Georgia, that they too are fed up with her and her antics and, if the right person runs, they will have my Complete and Unyielding Support. She has gone Far Left, even doing The View, with their Low IQ Republican hating Anchors,” he added.

And it truly speaks for itself. There needs to be a new way forward. The toxic political industrial complex thrives on ripping us all apart but never delivers anything good for the American people, whom I love," Greene said Saturday. "The PIC tells us to hate each other, fundraises off why we have to hate each other, and pits Americans against each other to the point of violence and nearing civil war. This is all so wrong. We can have our own differences and differing opinions but we can still love and respect one another. We have far more in common than we have apart," Greene continued. "I believe in the American people more than I believe in any leader or political party and the American people deserve so much better than how they have been treated by both sides of the aisle. The way forward is America First America Only. And that may be the most dangerous pursuit of all," she added. Good morning.

However, she has become a vocal critic of the president, particularly when it comes to U.S.-Israel relations and the Epstein files. On Nov. 4, Greene joined the co-hosts of "The View," who are famously critical of Trump, and discussed a wide range of topics. When co-host Sunny Hostin remarked that it seemed like Greene had moved to the left — something Trump later echoed — Greene pushed back, insisting that "there's lies that come in both sides."

Hunter Biden’s public tirade against journalist Miranda Devine exposes a raw, personal animosity that runs deeper than any political scandal, raising bigger questions about the boundaries between journalism, public scrutiny, and personal attacks. Hunter Biden’s Verbal Assault: Beyond Standard Critique Hunter Biden’s appearance on the “Wide Awake Podcast” marked a new chapter in the contentious relationship between the Biden family and the press. Rather than addressing any specific inaccuracy or bias in reporting, Biden went for the jugular, calling New York Post columnist Miranda Devine “horrendously ugly” both “physically and in terms of her ethics.” He didn’t stop there, suggesting that few would mourn her death—a personal slight rarely aired so publicly by a figure at the center of a national scandal. Such remarks go far beyond the typical rebuttals or spins familiar in political media. They reflect a hostility that, if anything, underscores the personal stakes and emotional volatility at play when private lives become public battlegrounds. Devine, no stranger to controversy, became a central figure in the Biden saga after her reporting on the infamous laptop found at a Delaware repair shop. Her book, “Laptop from Hell,” and her columns in the New York Post detailed contents that painted Hunter Biden in a compromising light—allegations of drug use, questionable business dealings, and explicit personal material. For Biden, this wasn’t just journalism; it was an invasion, weaponized for profit and political gain. His outburst reveals just how acutely he feels the consequences of this coverage, and how thin the line can be between legitimate scrutiny and perceived personal attack. The Laptop Story: Censorship, Verification, and Fallout The New York Post’s initial laptop exposé in October 2020 triggered an extraordinary reaction. Twitter swiftly blocked the story, preventing users from sharing it publicly or privately. This move, now widely debated, became a flashpoint in the ongoing argument over Big Tech’s role in moderating political information. The Post’s reporting didn’t bear Devine’s byline, but her subsequent coverage and book made her the public face of the story. https://twitter.com/EmmaJoNYC/status/1989386599470444752 In the weeks that followed, over 50 former intelligence officials released an open letter suggesting the laptop story bore the hallmarks of Russian disinformation, sowing doubt about its authenticity at a critical moment in the presidential campaign. However, independent cybersecurity analysis later authenticated the laptop’s copy. The emails published by the Post included one that implied that then-Vice President Joe Biden met with a Ukrainian executive at Burisma, the controversial energy company that employed Hunter. The laptop also contained evidence of Hunter’s drug use and other compromising behavior, revelations confirmed as authentic by cybersecurity experts.
