[00:03] Hi everybody, I'm John Kuryaku. Welcome back to Deep Focus. I wanted to tell you how thrilled we here have been with the channel's success over the last couple of months with everybody watching, subscribing. I wanted to say thank you very, very much. It really means a lot to me, not just me, but my colleagues Rebecca Miles and Chris Arnon. Uh, we're so happy that we've had now more than 36,000 subscribers and our videos are routinely getting tens of thousands of

[00:34] views. We can't do it except with your help. So, thank you very much. I also wanted to thank you for the comments that you're leaving on the videos. And I wanted to take the opportunity to answer some of the questions that have popped up uh in the course of those videos. Before we do that though, I wanted to talk about today's latest developments uh in the Jeffrey Epstein situation. I say situation, it's not really a case because Epstein's dead. He's not going to be prosecuted. So, it's not really a case. It is still a case for Galileain

[01:07] Maxwell, however, his um alleged, not even alleged, but his codefendant. You might recall that Galileain Maxwell uh was found guilty of child sex crimes about a year ago or so and she was sentenced to 20 years in prison. Granted, she ended up at a minimum security work camp for women down in Florida. Her job at the prison has literally been to go out to the beach every day and pick up garbage. So, God knows life could be a lot worse for

[01:38] Galain Maxwell. But this thing has taken on so much of a life of its own that yesterday, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that Justice Department attorneys would seek to interview Galain Maxwell. Why? To say what? The case is over. And if I were Galain Maxwell, better yet, if I were Galain Maxwell's attorney, I would tell her to keep her mouth shut. She's been sentenced to 20 years. That's

[02:10] a long stretch. And it's not going to get any better unless the Justice Department decides to shorten that stretch. They haven't proposed that. They just said, "Oh, we're going to go interview Gain Maxwell." No, they're not. That's not how the justice system works. If Galain Maxwell's attorney is worth his salt, and I'm sure that he is because there's a lot of money involved here, he's going to tell her to remain completely silent until he can negotiate

[02:41] an agreement with the Justice Department to shave some of those years off of her sentence and then she would be happy to answer their questions. Right. In addition, just a week ago, Maxwell's attorney filed her appeal in the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals. Now, as a basic rule, nobody ever wins their appeal, right? I mean, it's it's less than 1%. And usually when people do

[03:11] win among that less than 1%, it's on a procedural issue. It's just a technicality. It's not like courts of appeals read the case and say, "Oh my gosh, a terrible mistake has been made. We're going to overturn this conviction." That's just that's in the movies. That doesn't happen in real life. ProPublica has written about this. And they have confirmed that far fewer than 1% of people convicted in federal courts

[03:42] have won their appeals. Not only not only has Galain Maxwell's attorney just a week ago submitted the appeal to the circuit court, but also a week ago the Justice Department submitted their response to Galileain Maxwell's appeal in which they said, "We disagree with literally everything that was said in this appeal and we oppose any easing of Glay Maxwell's sentence.

[04:14] So, here we are just a week later and the Justice Department is going to Colleen Maxwell hand in hand and saying, "We seem to have gotten ourselves into a political corner here and we would appreciate it if out of the goodness of your heart you could rat out other people who had something to do with Jeffrey Epstein." That's just not how real life works. So stay tuned to that and don't be at all surprised if Galain

[04:44] Maxwell's 20 years suddenly turned to 17 or 15 or 10 or Donald Trump with the stroke of his pen changes it even more radically. We're going to wait and see. There was a second development in this uh situation. This is a bonafide scandal for Donald Trump. Donald Trump, despite his more recent protestations, campaigned on the issue of releasing all of the information that the Justice

[05:15] Department had related to the Jeffrey Epstein uh case. Now, when he said all information, his supporters believed that to mean all information, including the names of people involved with Epstein who may have committed sex crimes against children. You know from watching the news that a week or so ago, Attorney General Pam Bondi came out and said that after a

[05:45] thorough review, it turns out there is no so-called list of clients that Jeffrey Epstein had uh who committed crimes against children. Uh the list uh doesn't exist. It may never have existed. And sorry, but uh we're done. Well, FBI Director Cash Patel wanted to release more and didn't say anything. FBI Deputy Director Dan Bonino reportedly flipped his lid in a White

[06:16] House meeting with Attorney General Bondi and almost resigned. He actually didn't even show up for work the next day, a Friday. And the word was he was going to quit because he promised people that he would release all of the Epstein information. And now he's being told, "No, you can't release it." So what is it? You know what? Let's give the let's give the Justice Department the benefit of the doubt and let's say, "Okay, we believe you that there's no

[06:47] list." But to to paraphrase Bill Clinton depends on what the meaning of list is. right now. Is there a is there a file folder somewhere at the Justice Department that says uh men who committed sex crimes against children at Jeffrey Epstein's Island? No. Okay, I I accept that. But we also know from a mountain of testimony by Virginia Joffrey, God rest her soul, and other

[07:18] victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his friends that there were recordings, there were computer hard drives, there were probably DVDs, and there were human beings monitoring the recording equipment at the island. So why haven't those people been deposed? Why haven't we heard interviews with the people who were who were apparently taking video of men having sex with children at the island?

[07:51] Pam Bondi, God bless her. I think she means well. I really do. I've heard from people close to her, a lot of people close to her, that she's a genuinely good person who really wants to do the right thing. So, let's lay this out and let the American people decide. Now, the second the second uh event this week related to Epstein is that Mike Johnson, the speaker of the House of Representatives,

[08:22] did not want his own Republican party to vote on a an issue on a motion that was brought up in the House of Representatives Committee on Rules, which decides what bills go to the floor for a vote and what bills don't. a bill to demand the release of all this information. That's counterintuitive, right? The president said he wanted all the information released. Uh the FBI

[08:53] wants the information released. Pam Bondi says that she wants the information released. The American people want the information released. And then Mike Johnson says, "Oh my god, we can't allow a vote to release the information." The Democrats are the ones who sponsored this bill. This would give the Democrats a kind of a cheap political victory. And the likes of Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Green and a bunch of members of the House Freedom Caucus were joining with Democrats to vote yes to force a

[09:26] release of the information. So what did Mike Johnson do? He shut down the House of Representatives and sent everybody home until September. So, not only is there not going to be a vote to force the release of this information, there's not going to be a vote on anything of any kind. Literally, nothing will happen on Capitol Hill because there is nobody on Capitol Hill. They've all gone home. This is a travesty, but it's something that we're going to watch and we're going to keep

[09:58] on. And please tune in on August 2nd. We are going to interview somebody who knows more about Jeffrey Epstein and these details than anybody else in America. We're going to lay all of that out for you. In the meantime, again, please do me that favor. Hit subscribe and like. Please share it. Tell your friends. Remember, it's free to subscribe. It doesn't cost anybody anything. But my goodness, it sure helps us. I promised you that I'd uh at least

[10:29] answer one question. And next week, we're going to do an entire um uh session here where I'll I'll answer these these really wellthoughtout uh well-considered questions. You deserve an answer. You're going to get an answer. But LJ 1066 poses a question here that made me laugh out loud when I thought of it because it's a good a good question. LJ 1066 asks, "Is your show going to discuss what's going on with Xiinping?" of course the the premier of China. I would love to know your

[11:00] perspective on what him being missing for weeks means. I'm going to answer that with one of my anecdotes from the CIA. I worked for a station chief overseas who before he came to the CIA worked in the State Department's uh Bureau of Diplomatic Security. And in 1976, he went with Henry Kissinger to China to see Mount Maung. And he and Kissinger arrived in China.

[11:31] And virtually the moment they got off the plane, Kissinger told the Chinese, "I need to see Mao. I need to see Mao. I need to see Ma." And they kept saying, "Yes, yes, you will see Mao. He's looking forward to seeing you, but first we want you to see this guy, and then we want you to see this guy, and then we're going to have a dinner, and then we're going to give you a tour of this building, and then you're going to drive around and, you know, look at the shops or whatever. The whole time they were there, Kissinger kept saying, "I have to see Mao. I have to see Mao." Finally,

[12:02] just before they're going to leave to go to the airport, the Chinese tell Kissinger, Mao is ready to see you. My friend told me that they they walked them into a room, an empty room that had a wall of drapes all across one wall. They opened the drapes and there was Mao, but he was in bed. And the Chinese host said, "Mao is sleeping and he can't speak to you." And my friend said that

[12:34] he whispered to Henry Kissinger, "He's dead, isn't he?" And Kissinger whispered back, "Don't tell anybody." It was another month before the Chinese finally announced that Mao had died. Well, Kissinger had to go back to President Ford and say, "Mao's dead. We saw him in the bed. He was clearly dead." Now, L LJ 1066, to answer your question, I'm not saying Xiinping is

[13:06] dead, of course, but I think that when Chinese leaders just go missing for weeks at a time, it's because of a health issue. He's an old man. We know that he has had other health issues, especially um uh congestive heart failure. And I'm wondering if something happened. he had a heart attack or he had a stroke or something. I'm wondering if we're going to finally get this announcement that oh Xiinping decided to

[13:36] retire two months ago. They just never said anything or oh my goodness, Xihinping's dead. Uh just now it's just that he's been out of commission. Who knows? You know, world leaders are are weird. Or maybe I should say the people around world leaders are weird when it comes to health issues. They always have been. Um, I would put money though on the fact that Xihinping is sick. Ladies and gentlemen, I read all the comments. I love the comments. Thank you for your kindness in the comments, too. You've

[14:06] said a lot of really nice things about me and it really makes me want to keep doing this a lot. So, thank you. And if you have a question, please feel free to leave it in the comments. We'll pull it out and we'll do more of these sessions where we can uh have Q&A and and get a little deeper into some of these issues. So, thanks for taking the time. I'm looking forward to more of these and we'll come back with more answers next week.
