On this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Harvard law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz said convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell should be given immunity and be compelled to testify before a congressional committee about the Jeffrey Epstein files. Host Shannon Bream said, “You mentioned Ghislaine Maxwell. She’s still got an appeal. I’m tracking at the Supreme Court, but in the meantime, you suggest she should be potentially offered congressional immunity to go and testify. Do you think that would happen? And what kind of information would she have that we haven’t seen?”

If this was done, Ghislaine would be well-served to testify remotely from the jailhouse. She wouldn't make it to D.C. alive.

Don't think this will happen. And this could ensure both Republicans and Dems.

If she were given immunity and still refused to testify what could they do? Put her in jail? She is already in jail. They would have to offer her a pardon.

I think so. Ghislaine was never offered a plea deal, and put under the jail to cover things up.

#2, Perhaps Dershowitz also knows this will never happen...and that's exactly why he's proposing it. He can come off looking pure as the driven snow---which is quite a trick given that he was Epstein's lawyer.

Since there is no record of Epstein crimes and no lists, what is the reason to keep her in jail? I doubt that the elites that were 'friends' of Epstein care if she lives.

What exaclty are you after? Would you plan to haul the victims out of the anonymity they've enjoyed and publicize them by name? Without them there is no evidence. I'd venture that those associates of Epstein's who shared his girls are now geriatric or dead. Epstein was 50 in 2003. His male "associates" would have been about his age or older. What is your goal? Have you really thought about it?

To what end? She's already in jail and was sentenced for a total of 240 months (20 years). However, she has served over 38 months in a row already. She is not eligible for parole but, due to accumulated time served before and during the trial, her release date from prison is scheduled for July 17, 2037 ... or in slightly less than 12 years. She will be 74 by then but more importantly, she will probably be alive! Testifying before Congress won't cut that time of 144 more months ... only a pardon or commutation can. And I guarantee, like most prisoners, she would be willing to lie under oath! Her "testimony" is thus worthless. If she had something to sell ... it would have been sold by now. So .... why give the Democrats a chance to just talk and make accusations? And don't forget ... acting in their official capacity as members of congress the Dems can't be sued for slander nor can they be held accountable for "misspeaking", i.e., lying!

She's a liar. Giving her immunity means she can't be indicted for things she says, as long as it's true. But she's already in jail for a long time, which means she has no real incentive to tell the truth under oath. If she lies and implicates Trump, on the other hand, many powerful Democrats would be happy, happy, happy to reward her with freedom.

Dershowitz pointed out that several of the grand jury witnesses concocted fantastic stories that turned out to be BS. This would become the modern equivalent of the McMartin Preschool Trial in California in the 1980s. People want the vicarious thrill of voyeurism into the private lives of influential people. We love to tear down our heroes and gods in public. It's as old as Greek Tragedy.

So she testifies tp what we already know. Epstein was a bad guy who used teenaged girls for his own pleasure. He apparently shared some. He is dead. A few here are convinced that these johns are still in the Deep State, messing up our lives. If they are still alive they'd be quite old. It is doubtful that they'd still be in government. For those tossing pedophilia around, there was none. The victims were too old for what happened to be called that.

I had thought that Ms. Maxwell had an ace up her sleeve to play when the time was right. I no longer believe that. She will serve out her sentence and Epstein is dead and buried.

I would grant her a pardon if she will hand over the videos and photos that the FBI and CIA are hiding from us. I'm sure there were multiple copies made for blackmail purposes. But I don't trust the DOJ - they need to go to the media.

President Donald Trump weighed in on Senator Adam Schiff's alleged mortgage fraud troubles late Sunday evening, claiming the Democrat is in "big trouble" and demanding he face prison time for his actions. Schiff is under scrutiny following a criminal referral sent by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) to the Department of Justice (DOJ) in May. The referral alleges that Schiff misrepresented his primary residence on mortgage documents for a Potomac, Maryland property between 2003 and 2019 to secure more favorable loan terms. A Fannie Mae memo concluded that Schiff engaged in a sustained pattern of possible occupancy misrepresentation in "multiple instances."

The World Economic Forum’s Klaus Schwab has been accused of rigging research to make Brexit look like a failure, intervening in the WEF’s annual Global Competitiveness Report to push the UK down the rankings. The Telegraph has more. Klaus Schwab, the face of the Davos conference in Switzerland for years, allegedly intervened in the WEF’s annual Global Competitiveness Report, which ranks countries on productivity and long-term prosperity. In the 2017/2018 report, the UK’s ranking improved from seventh to fourth after a change in methodology. But Mr Schwab, 87, wrote to staff that the UK “must not see any improvement”, as otherwise it would be “exploited by the Brexit camp”.

Talarico is thinking of running for Texas’s U.S. Senate seat in 2026.

Five years ago, a group of internet sleuths uncovered what remains the single biggest breakthrough in the Russiagate hoax: the identification of Igor Danchenko. Danchenko was the so-called “primary sub-source” behind the infamous Steele dossier, a Clinton campaign subcontractor whose fabrications formed the backbone of the fraudulent Trump-Russia collusion narrative. The FBI had buried his identity deep inside its classified files, hoping it would never come to light. But when it did, the entire hoax collapsed. From start to finish, it had all been made up.

President Donald Trump filed a $10 billion lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal and media mogul Rupert Murdoch Friday, a day after the newspaper published a story reporting on his ties to wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein. The move came shortly after the Justice Department asked a federal court on Friday to unseal grand jury transcripts in Epstein’s sex trafficking case, as the administration seeks to contain the firestorm that erupted after it announced that it would not be releasing additional files from the case, despite previously pledging to do so. The controversy has created a major fissure between Trump and his loyal base,

In a statement, Newsom said: The women and men of the California National Guard deserve more than to continue serving as puppets in Trump and Stephen Miller’s performative political theater. There was never a need for the military to deploy against civilians in Los Angeles. The damage is done, however.

Hunter Biden really walked smack into it when he “crashed out” during a YouTube interview with Andrew Callaghan that was released today.

However, in one sense, Hunter is right on the money: White men are significantly more likely to commit a crime…if you’re a white man like a Biden. If you’re a “white man” with the last name Biden,
