Gingrich: Trump should appoint someone ‘to go through every single angle’ of Epstein controversy – The Hill
Former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) said President Trump should task someone with going over “every single angle” of the controversy surrounding convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
“I think in the end, the president will have to appoint somebody to go through every single angle,” Gingrich, a Trump ally, said during his Wednesday appearance on the “Cats & Cosby” radio show on WABC 770 AM.
“And frankly, I think they’re going to have to get Ghislaine Maxwell to talk, and if that means cutting some kind of a deal, whatever it takes, they’re going to have to find out from her, because she was there for over 20 years,” the former House Speaker told hosts John Catsimatidis and Rita Cosby. “She knows, and she has information.”
On Wednesday evening, Maxwell’s brother Ian Maxwell said in an email to the New York Post: “She will be putting before that court material new evidence that was not available to the defense at her 2021 trial, which would have had a significant impact on its outcome.”
