Andrew Weissmann

If she refuses to testify, that's a separate crime of contempt of court.

That's what Steve Bannon was charged with and convicted of.

And any time that she would do for that would be consecutive to her current time.

So anyway, they have a way to force her to actually have to come to Congress and answer questions.

And actually confront her with a whole host of things.

I am particularly interested in the email exchange, which we just learned about, where Jeffrey Epstein said the dog that didn't bark is Donald Trump, meaning he has not said anything about us and what I was doing.

And she doesn't say anything.

what are you talking about?

Like, what are you, I don't know what you're doing that he would possibly know about.

She doesn't say, why would he possibly know about this?

Instead, she says, and I'm going to paraphrase it, I was thinking about that too.

So why would you give that answer if this is somebody who you think would have no idea about what Jeffrey Epstein was up to?

Well, and also the Republicans who just voted to sort of force the president to do this, they could say we want to hear from Glenn Maxwell and they could join with Democrats and do this.

And the other is I think it's worth people talking about it so that there's sort of public pressure for accountability here and let the Republicans who had taken this step with respect to documents now take a step with respect to a witness.

Yeah.

I don't deal with the sort of the political realities of it.

That's sort of your area.

My point is there is a tool.

There is something like if you're asking what can Congress do, they have the tools in the same way that they had the tools and they voted by quite a lot, meaning unanimously minus one with respect to the documents.

They can do the same thing with Ghislaine Maxwell.
