    “I will tear down your corrupt system, even if it’s the last thing I do in my life. I will go all the way—I am not afraid,” she wrote to the First Lady on X. “Maybe you should be afraid of what I know… of who you are, and who your husband is.”

    What.

    The fuck.

    Are you waiting for?

      I think for anyone to say this and then not take any legal action should be considered illegal on the same level as aiding and abetting criminals. But then again this is the new normal in the timeline we live where president of the US can boast about destroying a whole civilization.

      The person who didn’t care to turn them in at any other point in their life obviously isn’t in it for any reason other than themself.

      She’s waiting for a payout.

        She’s probably waiting for her child back.

        Melania had ICE deport her during her custody battle with a friend of Trumps.

          The delay is discouraging because it means either she’s open to payoff to disclose it, or her information isn’t really novel or useful and she’s just teasing it out like a marketing campaign instead of trying to do real damage because she’s got nothing.

          What’s there is mainly a puff piece with some murky details (like how she was trafficked by Epstein and Brunel) and some unresolved qustions (how Zampolli was able to obtain Grenadan diplomatic status for himself and Ungaro). There’s also a big question about how or whether Zampolli was involved in the same kind of trafficking as Epstein and Brunel, since appears to have been on cordial terms with both.

          And there’s still no indication of what Ungaro knows or doesn’t know.
