22.07.2025 โ‡ข Epstein's Veil: House Adjourns, Maxwell Engages
โŒจUS media primarily focused on the deepening Jeffrey Epstein saga. In the morning, attention continued on broad Trump administration controversies including policy impacts, Hunter Biden's remarks, and international events like Israeli operations in Gaza. By midday, immigration issues saw increased coverage, alongside the emerging news of the Department of Justice seeking an interview with Ghislaine Maxwell. This development quickly dominated the narrative through the afternoon. Concurrently, Speaker Johnson announced an early House recess, explicitly to avoid a vote on releasing Epstein files, a legislative maneuver that drew significant media scrutiny. As the day progressed, President Trump reacted to the Epstein developments by escalating accusations of "treason" against former President Obama, prompting rare public rebuttals from Obama's office. This political back-and-forth became a prominent, linked storyline.
