The House Judiciary Democrats’ 53 Page Trump/Epstein Report (Part 5) (10/27/26) · The Epstein Chronicles

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: What's up everyone and welcome to another episode of the
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Epstein Chronicles. In this episode we're picking up where we
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: left off with the newly released Democrat report on Epstein
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: and Trump. Jane Doe 1, aka Jane, 14 years old.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: DOJ documents released pursuant to EFTA include an allegation that
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: in 1994 at Mar-a-Lago, Jeffrey Epstein introduced a victim to
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Trump saying, this is a good one, huh? And Trump responded, yes.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: The victim was 14 years old at the time. As
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: made apparent when viewed in the version made available to
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: members of Congress, but not to the public, Jane Doe
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: One was viewed as a credible witness by DOJ investigators
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: and prosecutors, and she was one of four women to
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: testify against Ghislaine Maxwell during her criminal trial under the
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: pseudonym Jane. Jane's testimony was devastating for Maxwell's defense. She
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: described in detail the abuse and acts... that occurred at
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: Epstein's properties in Florida, New Mexico, and New York, sometimes
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: involving Maxwell and groups of friends. The slide deck of
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: prominent names in the Epstein investigation was created by the
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: DOJ and FBI personnel in the weeks leading up to
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Todd Blanchett's interview of Maxwell and seemingly initiated in response
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: to a 7-10-2025 director's call. The slide deck includes a
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: reference to Jane's account of Trump and Epstein's conversation. Yet, strikingly,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: when then-Deputy Attorney General Blanche interviewed Maxwell, ostensibly to pursue
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: justice wherever the facts may lead, in the Jeffrey Epstein case,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: he did not ask questions at all about Jane's allegations.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: In fact, when on several different occasions Maxwell proactively referenced Jane,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: he quickly redirected Maxwell away from any further discussions of
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Jane or her claims. In one instance, Maxwell volunteered to
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Attorney General Blanche I believe you're talking about Jane, to
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: which he responded, yeah, indicating he was aware of her allegations. However,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: as soon as Maxwell began to address that, meaning Jane's claims,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Attorney General Blanche cut her off and instructed her not
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: to share specifics. At various points during the interview, Attorney
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: General Blanche interrupted Maxwell and instructed her not to discuss
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Jane's claims. For instance, saying, yeah, yeah, I don't want
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: to get into that. He said, she said, Maxwell responded,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: absolutely not. I'm not, I don't want to go there either.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: And even more explicitly, I'm not going to do that.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: At another point, Maxwell again raises Jane on her own,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: and Attorney General Blanch abruptly cuts in saying, pointedly, let's
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: not talk about individuals. The whole point of the conversation
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: was not to uncover information, but to create a conspiracy
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: of silence and strategically deter Ghislaine Maxwell from sharing information
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: that was not public at the time regarding the relationship
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: between Trump and Epstein. Attorney General Blanch's actions, while perhaps
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: not surprising, given his former role as Donald Trump's defense attorney,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: potentially constituted witness tampering and obstruction of an official proceeding,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: serious felonies. At the time of this interview, the House
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Oversight Committee had scheduled an interview with Maxwell for August 11th,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: less than two weeks later. Blanch, apparent instruction not to
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: discuss a specific Epstein victim and how that victim could
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: implicate Donald Trump, could easily run afoul of U.S. 18
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Code 1512, which forbids hindering or delaying the communication of
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: information relating to the potential commission of a federal offense
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: to a law enforcement officer, as well as corruptly influencing
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: the testimony of any person in an official proceeding, such
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: a congressional interview and investigation. Similarly, 18 U.S. Code Section
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: 1505 forbids corruptly influencing, obstructing, or impeding any pending proceeding
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: before Congress. A crime which would almost certainly encompass indicating
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: to a witness that they should not provide Congress with
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: specific information that would implicate the President of the United States.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Jane Doe No. 2, a.k.a. Katie Johnson, 13 years old.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: In April of 2016, a woman identified by the pseudonym
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Katie Johnson filed a lawsuit against accusing Donald Trump of
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: raping and sexually assaulting her on multiple occasions in 94
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: when she was 13 at a Jeffrey Epstein party in
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: New York. She reported that, as a minor, she was
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: asked to strip down to her underwear and give a
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: massage to Epstein and massage the penis of Epstein's guest, Trump,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: with her hands. She also reported that Epstein and Trump
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: argued over who would take her virginity and Epstein became
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: angry and violently raped her when he learned that Donald
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Trump had done so. as shown by the official FBI
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: interview notes, Johnson, through her attorney, reported these alleged crimes
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: in detail to the FBI. Notably, the FBI case agent
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: responsible for the interview ran an internal FBI search that
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: indicated Trump and Epstein were linked by a common investigative case.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: According to this agent, a search for Trump and Epstein
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: regarding exploitation of minors produced a specific case number that
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: that is one of several associated with Epstein's 2000 criminal
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: federal investigation. Sources within the Trump administration confirm that a
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: number of documents linked to the case have been withheld
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: from Congress and the public. Two facts reinforce the credibility
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: of Johnson's claims. First, at the time of Johnson's statement
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: to the FBI, Jeffrey Epstein was not yet the infamous
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: public figure he was to become. Thus, if Johnson had
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: fabricated the incident in an attempt to embarrass Donald Trump politically,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: as President Trump's campaign claimed, it's unclear why she would
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: have made Epstein the primary and slightly more violent perpetrator
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: in her account. Second, Johnson's extensive account of how she
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: was forced to give sexualized massages to Epstein matches accounts
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: given by other survivors, including many, that only became public
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: information much later. Maria Farmer, 25 years old. Maria Farmer
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: and her sister Annie Farmer were abused by Epstein in
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: the 90s. Maria Farmer, Epstein's former assistant, recounted an incident
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: in which she went to meet Epstein at his New
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: York office. There was no light on in the office
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: when she arrived, and while she was waiting for Epstein,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: a tall, imposing man in a business suit, Donald Trump,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: came into the room and approached her while she was
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: seated against a wall. According to Farmer, Trump stood over
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: her in a very imposing way, smirking at her, like
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: he was in on some secret. Epstein then emerged from
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: the office laughing and saying, no, no, she's not here
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: for you. Epstein escorted Trump to another room, leading Farmer
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: to suspect that there was another girl in that office
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: who was potentially there for sexual purposes, causing Donald Trump
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: to confuse her for that girl. As the two men
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: left the room where Trump had oogled her, Farmer overheard
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Trump comment, oh, I thought she was 16, although she
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: was in her 20s at the time. Said Farmer, it
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: felt very predatory. Farmer's sister was 15 at the time.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Epstein later told Farmer that he had inherited Donald Trump
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: in his divorce from Ivana, saying it's well known amongst
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: the staff that they were best friends. Trump would often
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: appear at Epstein's office during this time. Farmer's accusation led
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump's communication director to falsely claim that Trump was
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: never in Epstein's office. a statement definitively contradicted by the
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: recollection of numerous individuals associated with Epstein. Farmer reported her
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: abuse to the FBI in 1996 and again in 2006,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: relaying concerns about Donald Trump in both instances. Her reports
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: to FBI appear to be unlawfully omitted from the files
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: released by DOJ pursuant to EFTA. This is a recurring issue.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Independent researchers have identified missing FD-302s and are mentioned in
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: evidence and discovery logs for Maxwell's trial, but have not
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: been produced to the public. For instance, CBS News determined
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: that over 70% of the roughly 5,000 documents listed in
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: one such index, including FD-302s, cannot be located through searches
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: of the released archives. Jane Doe No. 3, aka Kate,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: 20 years old. DOJ documents released pursuant to EFTA indicate
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: that a young woman was a victim of Jeffrey Epstein
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: and Glenn Maxwell's crimes and was repeatedly introduced to older
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: men by Maxwell. As made apparent by other documents, Jane
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Doe 3 was, like Jane Doe 1, viewed as a
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: credible witness by DOJ investigators and prosecutors. She was one
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: of four women to testify against Maxwell during her criminal
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: trial under the pseudonym Kate. While her official FBI interview
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: shows Forum is heavily redacted by DOJ. It shows that
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Kate was introduced by Maxwell to Donald Trump with a
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: clear understanding that she was available for sex. The FBI
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: notes state Maxwell took Kate to a party in New York.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Maxwell seemed very excited that there would be a lot
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: of great men for Kate to meet, including Donald Trump.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Maxwell allegedly presented Kate to Trump and they had a
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: conversation for approximately 20 minutes before she was invited to Mar-a-Lago,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: where she was given a tour by Trump with Epstein
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: and Maxwell present. Although Kate does not explicitly claim any
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: misconduct by Trump, Maxwell repeatedly made clear that Kate was
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: available to Donald Trump, saying things like, Oh, I think
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: he likes you. Aren't you lucky? This is great. Kate
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: stated that this was just like how Maxwell introduced Kate
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: to Epstein. Kate has consistently held that Maxwell appeared to
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: be attempting to traffic her to Trump in the same
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: way that she was trafficked to Epstein. In 2025, she's
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: that Maxwell did introduce me to Trump and she introduced
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: him to me with a clear message of my being
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: with him in the same way that she had trafficked
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: me and brought me to Jeffrey. Other documents in the
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Epstein files further establish and elaborate on the relationship between
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Maxwell and Kate and Trump. In an email dated December 15, 2020,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Maureen Comey, one of the lead DOJ prosecutors on the
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Epstein matter, summarized a call she had with Brad Edwards,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Kate's attorney. The purpose of the call appears to have
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: been for Edwards to provide corroborating sources for individuals who
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: could vouch for the connection between Kate and Maxwell. One
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: was Alan Dershowitz, another Donald Trump, with the notes indicating
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: that GM set Kate up on a date with him.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Other names, including the men who knew about the relationship
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: between Kate and Maxwell, are improperly redacted. Troublingly, Kate's relationship
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: with Donald Trump and their connection through Maxwell were covered
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: extensively in 1997 as a matter of tabloid gossip by
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: the Daily Mirror, which actually referred to Kate by her
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: real name. An article at the time reported how America's
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: best-known billionaire, Donald Trump, had fallen under the spell of
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: a 20-year-old English girl. The tabloid details how several American
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: millionaires already had their eyes on Kate when she attended
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: a party with Robert Maxwell's daughter, Ghislaine, who has introduced
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: several of her attractive friends to the property developer. The
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: use of the plural Maxwell has introduced several of her
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: attractive friends to the property developer is significant and revealing
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: given that this introduction occurred at the apparent height of
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: the Epstein-Maxwell sex trafficking operation. So too is the account
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: of what came next. Trump flew Madame Maxwell and the
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Model South to the Sunshine State, where all three enjoyed
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: a happy weekend together. When they returned to New York,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Kate was installed in one of Donald's many apartments there.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Kate has publicly shared significant information about her relationship with Epstein,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: which spanned several years, and locales. As related in interviews,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: in addition to the estate on his private island, Kate
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: said Epstein preyed on her at his homes in New
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: York and Paris. And in every location, there was the
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: microcosm of acceptance of yes people who acted like this
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: was normal. She stated by the time Epstein began to
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: rape her, it was too late. Kate has not spoken
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: publicly about her relationship with Donald Trump. But this much
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: is clear from the FBI interview and corroborating public sources.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell abused Kate. Around this time,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Maxwell then decided to introduce Kate as well as several
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: other young women to Donald Trump. Immediately after this introduction,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Trump flew both Maxwell and Kate to Florida and put
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Kate up in a Trump property. In short, Maxwell certainly
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: appeared to be treating Donald Trump as if he were
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: a participant in the sex trafficking operation. All right, we're
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: going to wrap up right here. And in the next episode,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: we're going to pick up with Jane Doe number four,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: 13 years old. All the information that goes with this
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: episode can be found in the description box.
