    She’s right. Stop spreading rumors that she was linked to Epstein.

    Spread the actual fucking confirmed facts that she was linked to Epstein.

    Some interesting comments from https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/1sh66ol/comment/ofb285t/

    Its the Michael Wolff anti-SLAPP lawsuit that was filed Tuesday, Oct 21 in NY. Nearly six months ago. lines up perfectly.

    https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/DocumentList?docketId=xa7yy7bTaeiM2Y61WePLaA%3D%3D&display=all&courtType=New+York+County+Supreme+Court&resultsPageNum=1

    Not a lawyer but looks like her lawyer played every card to delay, including avoiding being served and then moving court venues. That gets us to January.

    Her counsel would have filed a motion to dismiss. Wolff’s counsel would send an opposition brief that would preview the evidence they intend to present to the court (that she met Trump through Epstein, was a prostitute, etc.) So, that might be interesting if it is attached to/ included with the court’s decision. NY has anti-SLAPP statutes that mandate the court needs to rule within 60 to 90 days.

    So, court ruling is due any day now. Until they rule, discovery is frozen.

    As soon as that ruling comes down, everyone in Epstein’s circle is going to get subpoena’d including Melania herself. Probably Trump, too.

    and

    Melania threatened to sue author Michael Wolff for $1 billion in October claiming he was lying about her having connections to Epstein. Wolff counter sued her because she was trying to get him to shut up with the lawsuit threat and you can’t do that in the US. Melania’s lawyer has been delaying the lawsuit using procedural maneuvers. Those finally ran out. Soon the judge will rule if Wolff’s lawsuit can move forward. If it does, the lawsuit will enter “discovery” which is when both sides gather evidence to present in court. During discovery, the court can issue subpoenas which are legal orders that require people to testify or go through an interview answering questions that will serve as evidence in the case. Wolff’s attorneys will probably force Melania, Trump, and other Epstein connected individuals to testify. They don’t want testify because either they’ll have to admit things they don’t want coming out or they’ll be caught lying in court

    First Lady Melania Trump has denied connections to Jeffrey Epstein, telling reporters at the White House that any claims linking the two “need to end today”.

    There are numerous photos of her and Epstein hanging out together and acting very friendly together. So these ‘claims’ are not going to end today or any time in the future, Melania. Because they aren’t ‘claims’, they are documented facts!

    If you don’t want to be associated with creeps then maybe don’t hang out with them for years on end. It’s far too late for her to heed that advice. But she wouldn’t anyway, because she’s a shitty person, and shirt people tend to congregate together.

    Edit: typos

    Is it coming full circle? Are we now using the Epstein files to hide how terrible the Iranian war was?

      It’s even better than that. She doesn’t give 2 shits about her pedo rapist husband so I bet she did this shit to troll him after he successfully got the Trumpstein files to drop out of the news cycle by bringing us to the brink of WW3.

      I mean, she sucks too but this shit is hilarious.

    I know people joked about it, but are they actually using Epstein to distract from the utter cluster fuck orange man-baby’s war with Iran has turned into? And which, at least in part, was almost certainly started to distract from Epstein?

    Oh she can fuck right off, her and her entire fucking family. Bitching to the world about people not having respect and humility for her and her family? Are you fucking kidding me? Does she know who the fuck she’s married to and who her stepchildren are? There’s not one fucking member of that family who has respect or humility for anybody.

        They won’t respect your life regardless. They don’t give a shit about you or anybody else. They’re in it for themselves and that’s it.

        The facts do appear to be that her biggest connection to Epstein is being married to his best friend.

      She probably has a prenup saying if she divorces him, she gets nothing. If he divorces her, otoh, it will probably cost him dearly.

    It’s funny how this is the thing that makes her come out and do a big speech.

    Someone is sniffing too close to the bodies methinks.
