(Townhall)—Democrats have found yet another way to use the Jeffrey Epstein controversy against President Donald Trump.
Democratic politicians are accusing the Trump administration of witness tampering after Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell was transferred to a minimum security facility in Texas. The move occurred after she met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche to discuss individuals who may have participated in Epstein’s illicit sex trafficking operation.
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, sent a letter signed by other lawmakers to Attorney General Pam Bondi and Bureau of Prisons (BOP) Director William K. Marshall demanding answers about Maxwell’s transfer.
Any meeting between Blanche, DOJ, or any other Trump representative and Ghislaine Maxwell and her attorneys, on the other, should be audiovisually recorded. Full stop The DOJ may be engaging in witness tampering. They fired Maurene Comey to make sure there was no witness.

The letter was signed by several Democrats, including Reps. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), Jasmine Crockett (D-TX), and several others. “Two weeks ago, you inexplicably transferred Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s coconspirator, from a federal correctional institution to a far preferable and relatively luxurious minimum-security prison camp in Texas, just three years into her 20-year sentence for sexually exploiting and abusing minor girls as young as 14,” the lawmakers wrote.
