Episode notes
Reporters Say Questions Repetitive And Off Topic
- MJ Lee reported Republicans asked repetitive and off-topic questions, including about UFOs and Pizzagate, and Hillary said she lacked new information.
- She noted Bill Clinton's testimony would be different because his contacts appear in Epstein flight logs and photos.
Stop Repeating The Same Questions
- Avoid repetitive questioning when testimony is unlikely to produce new facts; it wastes time and undermines credibility.
- James Walkinshaw said asking the same relationship and knowledge questions in different words for six hours was unproductive.
Walkinshaw Says Files Implicate Trump Relationship
- Walkinshaw argued files show President Trump had a deep relationship with Epstein, citing flight logs, a birthday note, and emails implying Trump 'knew about the girls.'
- He rejected claims Trump was exonerated, saying the records instead suggest deception about his relationship.
