Convicted Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell’s name or address reportedly appears in as many as 200 emails within a single year. Donald Trump’s name also appears.

In one email, Epstein instructed Maxwell to remove the names of around 50 politicians and businessmen from a list, including Trump’s, Bloomberg said. The purpose of that list is still unclear. 

The report follows the publishing of an explicit letter Trump allegedly wrote to Epstein for a “birthday book,” and not long after Republicans narrowly prevented the forced release of the so-called “Epstein files.”

Media Miss by the left: High-capacity gun magazine ban challenged by 27 states

Twenty-seven states are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to change a Washington state law banning the sale and possession of gun magazines that hold more than 10 rounds.

The law was temporarily struck down by a Cowlitz County judge, who ruled it violated the Second Amendment. Then in May, the Washington Supreme Court upheld the law, saying magazines with more than 10 rounds are not protected.

In an amicus brief filing, the states opposing the ban  say around 48% of gun owners possess high-capacity magazines. They also argue they’re essential for self-defense and hunting.
