The Trump administration is still trying to regain control of the public conversation while the Department of Justice works to uncover more details on the Jeffrey Epstein case. House Speaker Mike Johnson has become a key figure in a growing split among Republicans, leading to canceled votes in Congress as more people want to know how close the president and Epstein actually were.
According to The Guardian, the Department of Justice is taking its own steps to reach out to Maxwell. The Deputy Attorney General announced plans to meet with her in the coming days. This is a new development, as the Department had not previously tried to see if Maxwell was willing to share information. Officials stressed their commitment to following the facts wherever they lead, saying no one is above the law and no lead will be ignored.
