Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirator and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell is appealing to the Supreme Court to overturn her conviction. Maxwell is claiming that she is ineligible to be prosecuted due to a 2007 plea deal struck between Epstein and then-Florida prosecutor Alex Acosta, whom Trump later nominated as labor secretary.

Meanwhile, President Trump is looking to force Wall Street Journal owner Rupert Murdoch to give a deposition within the next two weeks as part of Trump’s defamation lawsuit against the Journal. Trump is seeking $10 billion after denying the Journal’s report that Trump signed a birthday card to Epstein with a sexually suggestive drawing of a woman.

On Monday, Trump gave new details about his relationship with Epstein, telling reporters in Scotland he ended their friendship because Epstein “stole workers away from me.”

President Donald Trump: “I never had the privilege of going to his island. And I did turn it down, but a lot of people in Palm Beach were invited to his island. In one of my very good moments, I turned it down.”
