The Jeffrey Epstein trafficking ring has again turned into one of the biggest stories in the planet, and US President Donald J. Trump is being asked multiple times a day to weigh about different aspects of the case – more specifically, today, about the 2-day interview that Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell has given to the second highest DOJ official, Todd Blanche.

The disgraced British socialite is serving a 20-year sentence in FCI Tallahassee, Florida, for her sex-trafficking convictions.

Before flying to Scotland, Trump was asked about Maxwell’s interview with Blanche, in which he was asked if he would pardon her – and the President made it clear that it’s within his powers to do so.

President Trump says he’s allowed to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell.

The only reason he’d do that is if she exposed the Epstein clients.

Later in the day, after arriving in Scotland, the US President was again asked about the case.

Trump answered in a more adversarial mode, and even – what do you know – improvised a ‘client list’ of people that have been to Epstein’s Island – including Bill Clinton and former Harvard President Larry Summers.

BREAKING: On pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell, President Trump says, “this is no time to be talking about pardons.”

“I really have no, really nothing to say about it. She is being talked to by a very smart man, by a very good man, Todd Blanche. And I don’t know anything about the conversation.

I haven’t really been following it. A lot of people are asking me about pardons. Obviously, this is no time to be talking about pardons.

But a lot of people have asked about pardon. This is just not a time to be talking about pardons. Todd will come back with whatever he’s got.

You’re making a very big thing over something that’s not a big thing. You should be talking about, if you’re going to talk about that, talk about Clinton, talk about the former president of Harvard, talk about all of his friends, talk about the hedge fund guys that were with him all the time. Don’t talk about Trump.”

President Trump just signed Executive Order #14233…

Opening up the floodgate to a $15 trillion wealth boom…

And if you know how to take advantage of this situation…

You could potentially turn a $1,000 starting stake…

Into a $100,000 windfall over the next year.

That’s my big prediction.

And to help you take advantage of this urgent situation…

I’m pulling the curtain back on my “crypto playbook”…

Which includes the name and ticker symbol of the #1 coin for Trump’s crypto boom…

(It’s not Bitcoin or Ethereum).

In fact…

I doubt most Americans have heard of this coin before.

I’m also sharing the details on how to get 4 other small coins…

With the potential to surge 1,000%, 5,000%, and even 10,000% over the next year.

These are ideas I believe in so much…

That I’m personally investing up to $10,000 of my own money into them.

Plus…

I’m also sharing the details on a reported leak from the White House…

That makes me 100% confident in this opportunity.

But if you want a piece of this trend…

You should move fast:

Trump just flipped a switch.

And I predict it will trigger a “buying panic” in the crypto market…

Creating the chance for you to see some of the biggest and fastest gains of all time.

President Trump arrived in Turnberry, Scotland, this afternoon, where he was met by a massive crowd awaiting his arrival. 

Awaiting Trump’s arrival in Turnberry was a massive crowd, excited to see the President land.

WATCH:

When the President touched down, the crowd erupted in cheers.

WATCH:

The President plans to spend the weekend at his Trump golf courses in Scotland, where his mother was born.

He is also expected to meet with UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer to discuss trade and the new deal they signed on tariffs in June.

The Gateway Pundit reported that Trump and Starmer signed off on the US’s first trade deal made as a result of Trump’s Liberation Day tariffs.

“With this deal, the UK joins the United States in affirming that reciprocity and fairness is an essential and vital principle of international trade,” Trump said while announcing the agreement in May.

Trump further announced, “the UK will reduce or eliminate numerous non-tariff barriers that unfairly discriminated against American products.“

A federal judge on Friday dismissed a lawsuit filed by four groups seeking to challenge President Trump’s dismantling of USAID.

US District Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointee, dismissed the lawsuit because the court lacks jurisdiction.

“The Court ultimately cannot reach the merits of any plaintiff’s allegations, however, because it concludes that it lacks jurisdiction over the claims of AFSA, AFGE, and Oxfam (which have moved for summary judgment after the Court denied their earlier motion for a preliminary injunction), and that it likely lacks jurisdiction over the claims of the PSCA (which has moved for a preliminary injunction). The Court will accordingly grant the government’s motion to dismiss the AFSA case and will deny the PSCA’s motion for a preliminary injunction,” the judge wrote.

Earlier this month Secretary of State Marco Rubio said USAID officially ceased operations and is no longer giving money to foreign countries.

“Beyond creating a globe-spanning NGO industrial complex at taxpayer expense, USAID has little to show since the end of the Cold War. Development objectives have rarely been met, instability has often worsened, and anti-American sentiment has only grown,” Rubio wrote in a blog post, according to Fox News.

“This era of government-sanctioned inefficiency has officially come to an end. Under the Trump Administration, we will finally have a foreign funding mission in America that prioritizes our national interests. As of July 1st, USAID will officially cease to implement foreign assistance. Foreign assistance programs that align with administration policies—and which advance American interests—will be administered by the State Department, where they will be delivered with more accountability, strategy, and efficiency,” Rubio said.

A court battle erupted after DOGE dismantled USAID earlier this year. A rogue Biden judge ordered the Trump Administration to pay billions of dollars in foreign aid contracts.

Rubio took over the agency and quietly worked to shut down the corruption and fraud.

As expected, fake news CNN is hyperventilating and claiming USAID’s closure could contribute to 14 million deaths in the next five years.

Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania went after New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani on Wednesday for not condemning radical rhetoric that he described as “blatantly anti-Semitic.”

“I’ll say this about Mamdani or any other leader,” Shapiro reportedly said during an interview with Jewish Insider. “If you want to lead New York, you want to lead Pennsylvania, you want to lead the United States of America, you’re a leader.”

“I don’t care if you’re a Republican or Democratic leader or a democratic socialist leader,” he continued. “You have to speak and act with moral clarity, and when supporters of yours say things that are blatantly anti-Semitic, you can’t leave room for that to just sit there. You’ve got to condemn that.”

Shapiro added, “He seemed to run a campaign that excited New Yorkers. He also seemed to run a campaign where he left open far too much space for extremists to either use his words or for him to not condemn the words of extremists that said some blatantly anti-Semitic things.”

The Democratic governor is likely referring to Mamdani’s support for Palestinian protesters and his initial refusal to condemn the phrase “globalize the intifada,” which is used by pro-Palestinian activists to push for an international uprising.

Mamdani compared the phrase to “a desperate desire for equality and equal rights in standing up for Palestinian human rights,” during an interview last month.

“To the question of language  … I am someone who — I would say — am less comfortable with the idea of banning the use of certain words. And that I think it is more evocative of a Trump-style approach to how to lead a country,” he said, before the host cut him off, to ask again if radical phrasing like “globalize the intifada” made him uncomfortable.

Mamdani replied, “I know people, for whom those things mean very different things … As a Muslim man who grew up post-9/11, I’m all too familiar in the way in which Arabic words can be twisted, can be distorted, can be used to justify any kind of meaning.”

The New York Times reported last week that Mamdani walked back his comments — and claimed he would discourage use of the phrase going forward– during a meeting with city business leaders.

But he only did so after receiving heavy backlash.

That’s a far cry from publicly denouncing it, and explaining the rationale behind why he’s pulling a 180.

His base is drifting further and further left. If he were to publicly show any type of support for Israel, it could doom his candidacy — even if it was indirect.

When a popular Democrat from a vital swing state is calling you out directly, however, you know your party has a long-term problem.

The infighting between establishment leadership and younger lawmakers like Mamdani is poised to cause a civil war between Democrats.

One side is trying to offer some sort of middle path — while also hitting on extreme social points — in order to realistically govern and win nationwide.

The other side has admitted to wanting a communist takeover of government, property rights, grocery stores, gun ownership, wages, and pricing, while promising to punish certain people for the color of their skin.

No matter how this shakes out, there likely won’t be any compromise.

Democrats will either get the message and move closer to the center, or keep marching toward the fringe in an effort to tear down the fabric of American exceptionalism at all costs.
