Maxwell Silent on Epstein, Crockett Slams Trump

Ghislaine Maxwell invoked the Fifth Amendment during a closed-door deposition before the House Oversight Committee on Monday, refusing to answer questions about her crimes with Jeffrey Epstein and potential co-conspirators. The convicted co-conspirator appeared virtually from a Texas prison where she is serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking, according to ABC News.

The deposition, which Chairman James Comer described as "very disappointing," aimed to gather information about the crimes Maxwell and Epstein committed, as well as identify any other individuals involved. Comer told reporters that the committee "sincerely want[s] to get to the truth to the American people and justice for the survivors," as reported by ABC News. The House Oversight Committee's investigation is ongoing.

Representative Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, shared a vulgar six-word warning for President Donald Trump following the deposition, as reported by Fox News. Crockett stated, "We're gonna be on his ass," after the conclusion of the hearing.

In other news, Hong Kong pro-democracy media tycoon Jimmy Lai was sentenced to 20 years in jail for colluding with foreign forces under the city's national security law, according to BBC World. Rights groups have criticized the sentence, while Hong Kong's leader has expressed satisfaction. This is the harshest punishment handed down under the law, which China imposed after 2019 protests.

Meanwhile, an 84-year-old woman, Nancy Guthrie, remains missing after more than a week, according to Fox News. Alleged ransomers are reportedly seeking a 6 million Bitcoin transfer. The deadline for the ransom payment is approaching.
