that's the basics of ghislaine maxwell and jeffrey epstein.ey who represented many of the survivors of epstein's sex trafficking ring. sigrid mcauley joins us. thank you for being with us. what are you hoping to see? what are you hoping to see as we are expecting at least some portion of information released from the epstein files? >> we are hoping to see more of the information about the folks who were involved in this. from the very beginning we have said that epstein did not act alone. you saw that with the accountability we got when ghislaine maxwell was arrested and imprisoned for over 20 years. again, there were many people within this circle who were helping facilitate these crimes. we are very hopeful with this disclosure that we'll learn more about the individuals that were helping perpetrate these crimes. >> will: i think there's an obvious follow-up. when you say that you're interested in the individuals that helped perpetrate these crimes, are you talking about the alleged johns that would've taken place that would have been innoce

the press release, it says that these were trial exhibits at epstein's alleged coconspirator, ghislaine maxwell's trial. so many most of this information was shown to a jury in some form. and our colleagues sat in the courtroom, as did many members of the american public, and have already seen this information. some of it is heavily redacted. for example, there's something that's that they identify as a contact list, which has been known as the black book of contacts that epstein had. but, you know, this is just a you know, this is information that not only was already out there but doesn't shed any new light on anything that moves the story forward. and honestly, i think my colleagues at the justice department today kind of described it as a very surreal, kind of haphazard release, almost like a theatrical stunt. and i think that was in part the point. >> yeah, i mean, i guess one there's two there's a substantive question here, which is this has become a kind of macguffin, a sort of plot device for a certain part of the conspiratorial right, that there is some bombshell list of names that they,

obviously criminal action that involved ghislaine maxwell.es on the flight log list we have seen before. what was interesting tonight and i'm still going through it, we saw a few names in the contact book i told you about, month in michael bloomberg, alec baldwin, u.k. prime minister tony blair. we are still going through this and when i get information, i will pass that along, but that is what i have so far. >> laura: kevin, all these great to see you. thank you so much. grab your signs and put on your protest shoes and someone call al sharpton. discrimination is afoot. a one was passed over for promotion and demoted while two lesser were moved up. i forgot to mention she is straight and white while the promoter workers and their boss were gay. she sued and the case went to the supreme court, which seems ready to at least take her side. speak of the question presented is whether the majority group plaintiff has to show something more than minority group plaintiff here whether a straight person has to show more than a gay person. everybody ov

been impacted, for example, by this epstein -- not just by jeffrey epstein himself, but also by ghislaine maxwellwho may or may not have been party to these circumstances on the east side of new york. so i think transparency, sunlight, what they say, is the best disinfectant. rachel: let me tell you why i think this is important. i think it's important because we have a generation of young people who have been through the lies of covid that deeply impacted them, have seen all of these things transfire that we've been talking about -- transpire, and this is their chance to believe a this their government is honest again. kevin: amen. rachel: i think if these are not released in their a entirety and if this promise is not kept which, by the way, i believe president trump is going to keep this promise, but i think this is about retoring trust for young people in democracy. kevin: yeah. griff: it's such a -- because we've had these drones and we've talked about it here on the couch and elsewhere, the mysterious drones everywhere and the biden administration stonewalled, stonewalled, the trump adminis

but i have to tell you that it was recently actually used to convict ghislaine maxwell in in her case. so this is a stunning filing really. but i have to tell you, pam, this is actually not the first time that they have alluded to this. last year in an interview with tmz, combs's team said that this entire case is the takedown of a successful black man. now we have reached out to prosecutors. they have not responded to this filing. but after that tmz interview last year, they objected to it, telling the judge that those are baseless accusations. >> all right, elizabeth, thank you so much. and thank you so much for joining us. i'm pamela brown. you can follow me on instagram, tiktok and aks at pamela brown, cnn. stay with us. inside politics with dana bash starts after a short break. >> what are you thinking? >> i'm thinking. >> about her honeymoon. >> what about africa safari? >> hot air balloon ride. swim with elephants. wait, can we afford. >> a safari? >> great question. >> like everything. >> takes a little planning. >> or put the money. >> towards a down payment. >> on a ranch. >

that all came out several years ago during the trial of ghislaine maxwell, his former girlfriend, who was convicted of this sex trafficking scheme. so all of that we've seen before, all the names we've seen before. also was his black book. this contact list. >> which was his address. >> book, which was his address book, which has been public on the internet for years. you know, i think the gothamist had first published it, and it has been out there for a long time. they have now officially published the document themselves. >> because online there is a whole ecosphere of qanon and others who have put out a lot of fake lists, flight lists. i believe i am on one of the fake flight lists that is out there online, because i get weird dms from people accusing me of being on a flight, which obviously is absurd. um, none of that. i mean, that's all just fake in the in the internet. >> yeah. i mean, so it will disprove some of those documents if anyone is actually going to comb through them one by one. and of course, during the maxwell trial, not everyone would have had access to the flight l

heart of this in a very real way, as we all know from from covering the epstein case and the ghislaine maxwell trial. um, what do you make, though, of of what's happening inside the maga world tonight? there's a lot of anger over this. >> so. >> i'll be honest. i try and pay as little attention to that as possible because it's all a fever dream for a lot of them, and it's some language i can't use. it involves one word and the other words giggles. but the reality is there are real victims here. >> and say that you can say that. >> at 9 p.m. on cable tv. i think you probably. >> get other. >> channels, other channels. right? >> but i thought it was interesting. i did see dave portnoy, who's i think best known as the pizza by the slice reviewer who has millions of followers, asked the tough questions of this and other things that trump is doing. but you highlighted. i think, maybe unknowingly, a big part of what trump administration policy is. 8 a.m. tomorrow, pam bondi wants to see this. the donald trump mantra is tune in tomorrow. so everybody tune in tomorrow. and then we're not talking about
