Representative Dan Goldman, a New York Democrat, Tuesday on X: "DOJ plans to interview Ghislaine Maxwell. But why now? Ghislaine is looking for a pardon, and who would be better to give it to her than a co-conspirator now in the Oval Office. Any testimony she provides must be accompanied by the release of the files to corroborate it."

House Speaker Mike Johnson rejects pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell, stating she deserves life in prison for her role in Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking crimes.

The House speaker said in an interview with "Meet the Press" he would have "great pause" about any commutation for the former Jeffrey Epstein associate.

As he was leaving for Scotland Friday to help promote his family’s golf clubs, President Trump responded to a question about Ghislaine Maxwell.
