In Ghislaine Maxwell's meeting with Trump's personal attorney, she said she met Trump in 1990 through her father Robert Maxwell when he owned the New York Daily News.

Her father was VERY FOND of Ivana Trump, and Ghislaine became Ivana's BEST FRIEND.

Considering how stupid and unqualified Pam Bondi is, I find her arrogance laughable. She must be really impressed with herself, because trump, the smartest man on the planet told her she was smart!

Weirder still, the oppo research is false. I checked. This person has never contributed to me. Like I wouldn’t check? So false — and sloppy.

Today in Judiciary, the MAGA Attorney General falsely accused me of taking money, “not only once but twice,” from “one of Epstein’s closest confidantes.”

She brought it up twice, in response to different questions, so no accident.

I grew up going to Zabar's. So many of my childhood memories center around the best lox in NYC (which is saying something). With Saul Zabar's passing today, the Upper West Side has lost a legend who turned his parent's humble store into a culinary institution.

“Rather than combating the rapid spread of health misinformation with facts and clarity, Kennedy is amplifying it. The consequences aren’t abstract. They are measured in lives lost, disease outbreaks and an erosion of public trust that will take years to rebuild.”

"Secretary Kennedy is entitled to his views. But he is not entitled to put people’s health at risk. He has rejected science, misled the public and compromised the health of Americans. The nation deserves a health and human services secretary who is committed to scientific integrity…”
