Trump had directed Attorney General Pam Bondi to release “any and all pertinent" grand jury documents as pressure continues to mount on the administration over Epstein.

The federal judge now overseeing the Justice Department's request to unseal grand jury records from Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell's criminal case said in a new order Tuesday that he plans to rule "expeditiously" on the matter but requires more information before he can.

The DOJ has said Grace was removed as the U.S. attorney for the District of New Jersey hours after she was chosen over Habba.

The state's district judges voted to replace Alina Habba with her top assistant, who was ousted by the Justice Department hours later.

Todd Blanche, the second-highest ranking official at the Justice Department, said Tuesday that he plans to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell "in the coming days" about the case involving convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The Justice Department is seeking to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell, the co-conspirator of Jeffrey Epstein, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Tuesday. Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year federal prison sentence for child sex trafficking and other crimes.

Attorney General Pam Bondi said that her top deputy expects to speak with Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted associate of notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The House Oversight Committee has also passed a Republican-led motion to subpoena Maxwell.
