The survivors of convicted trafficker and molester Jeffrey Epstein spoke at a press conference on Wednesday. They were asked about the recent interview that the Justice Department conducted with convicted accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.

President Donald Trump's former personal defense attorney Todd Blanche, who now works at the DOJ, conducted a carefully worded interview of Maxwell, legal analysts characterized after the tape and transcript were released.

Speaking to the press as part of a collection of survivors who were sexually assaulted by convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein on Wednesday, survivor Chauntae Davies brought up Donald Trump.

After explaining how she was brought into Epstein’s circle with the promise of helping her career, she noted that her victimizer bragged about his influence and friends as a way of threatening her.

The family of Virginia Giuffre, among the most outspoken victims of Jeffrey Epstein who died by suicide earlier this year, called out lawmakers blocking a probe into the disgraced financier Wednesday during an unprecedent bi-partisan press conference in Washington, D.C.

“This is about justice against the rich and powerful who have stolen something from these women and many children: their freedom,” said Sky Roberts, Giuffre’s brother, speaking to well over 100 attendees at the presser at the Capitol steps. “The freedom to live their life without mental and physical scars that have been inflicted upon them by those who thought they were untouchable.”

Haley Robson was visibly shaking as she told the story of being one of the many survivors of Jeffrey Epstein, a wealthy financier arrested for molesting girls and trafficking them.

Robson talked about the fear she felt being pressured by Epstein after he sexually abused her for the first time. She said she rode home sobbing. Epstein then allegedly demanded that if she didn't want to service him, then she would be forced to find other girls she knew. So, she brought him more of the teens until one finally called the police. It was then that, despite being a victim herself, Robson said the police named her a co-conspirator.

During the Republican caucus meeting on Wednesday morning, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) told the group of lawmakers that the two competing bills to release the investigation files around Jeffrey Epstein were largely the same and that the caucus should vote for the bill being presented by Rep. James Comer (R-KY) in the House Oversight and Reform Committee.

It was then that Rep. Tom Massie (R-KY) stood up and called Johnson out for giving the members false information.
