Winners of a Young Author’s Contest

On a recent all day school visit in California I had the honor of meeting the student winners of  a school-wide writing contest.  These exceptional young authors from each grade wrote the winning essays judged by a school panel.  On a break between presentations, I was lucky enough to have lunch with these very talented and creative students.  They asked me about the writing process and I had chance to read their stories and give them feedback.

    The Justice Department on Friday released the long-awaited transcripts of a weeks-old interview it conducted with convicted Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell. The Maxwell interview was one of two steps the White House took to try and quell outrage over its handling of the Epstein files which has rocked the administration for weeks and caused even many supporters of President Donald Trump to balk. blacksprut Attorney General Pam Bondi and other officials had built up anticipation for the Epstein documents before pulling back on promises to release them. Trump has also made a series of false and misleading claims that have caused Epstein’s victims to suggest a cover-up. The administration’s other big move – asking to unseal grand jury testimony – hasn’t amounted to much. In fact two judges have suggested it was a “diversion” intended to look transparent without actually being so. https://bs2bestat.at bs2best at The Maxwell interview conducted by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche likewise doesn’t add much to the public knowledge of Epstein. But there are some key points worth running through – particularly in the broader context of the administration’s botched handling of the matter. Here’s what to know from the transcript: Maxwell isn’t coming clean which undercut the exercise The Maxwell interview is the administration’s first significant release of information since its effort to close the matter blew up in its face last month. Also on Friday it sent Epstein documents to a House committee that had demanded them but those aren’t public yet. But it was always a weird choice given Maxwell is a convicted sex offender and her appeals are ongoing. The Justice Department in Trump’s first term also labeled her a brazen liar. What could she possibly add of value? Not a whole lot it seems. Related article This undated trial evidence image obtained December 8 2021 from the US District Court for the Southern District of New York shows British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell right and US financier Jeffrey Epstein left. READ: Transcript of the Justice Department’s interview with Ghislaine Maxwell The big headlines are that Maxwell doesn’t implicate anybody – including Trump – in any wrongdoing and says Epstein didn’t have a client list. But those statements might carry more weight if Maxwell came clean about her and Epstein’s own misdeeds. She clearly didn’t do that. In fact she repeatedly cast doubt on them too. She denied that Epstein paid her millions of dollars to recruit young women for him. She denied witnessing any nonconsensual sex acts. And she denied seeing anything “inappropriate” from “any man” – seemingly including Epstein. “I never ever saw any man doing something inappropriate with a woman of any age” Maxwell said. “I never saw inappropriate habits.” Some other Maxwell responses also call her credibility into question. In another instance Maxwell claimed Epstein didn’t have “inappropriate” cameras inside his New York Caribbean New Mexico and Paris residences. Cameras in his Palm Beach Florida house were used because money was being stolen. But Epstein’s seven-story townhouse in Manhattan was outfitted with cameras the New York Times reported earlier this month. Several of Epstein’s victims have cited a network of hidden cameras.
