The question that was asked was whether there was anything “incriminating.” The fact that he had to attack the reporter so intensely suggests that something(s) in his mental rolodex are immediately coming to mind that he knows is bad but he can’t stop it

Apart from being obviously awful you can see from the flash of anger on his face that he is feeling *completely* out of control about this situation. Reminds me of the interview he bailed on in the ESPN 30 for 30, “Who Killed the USFL,” when he was confronted on his failures by a reporter

Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28.
If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

Why would Jeffrey Epstein kill himself in jail if he had this much leverage of the one person who could give him a full pardon?

Melania knew about Epstein. She attended the underage sex trafficking parties with her perverted husband. She's in more images with Ghislaine Maxwell than she is with Barron.
