00:00Author Michael Wolff says he is using lawsuit to lift secrets, entangling First Lady Melania

00:06Trump. Author Michael Wolff filed a lawsuit against First Lady Melania Trump, alleging

00:12she tried to block his speech and public inquiry into the Trump family's ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

00:18The suit could allow subpoenas and testimony under oath to reveal previously undisclosed

00:22connections. The lawsuit could mark the first time a First Lady faces a civil court case,

00:27raising high-stakes legal and political questions. Wolff seeks to depose Melania,

00:33Donald Trump, and possibly Ghislaine Maxwell. The core of Wolff's claim is that Melania and

00:38her legal team tried to silence him after he made comments linking her to Epstein and accusing her

00:44of hiding details about her early relationship with Donald Trump, details that Wolff says were

00:48connected to Epstein's infamous private jet, the Lolita Express. Melania responded by threatening

00:55a billion-dollar lawsuit, calling Wolff's statements false, defamatory, and lewd.

01:01Melania Trump's attorney demanded retractions over reputational harm, prompting Wolff to

01:06countersue. He aims to gain access to records, witnesses, and the hidden story behind the Trump-Epstein

01:12ties. Wolff claims Epstein described a close Trump-Epstein relationship and is using the lawsuit to

01:19challenge Melania's alleged attempts to suppress reporting under New York's anti-SLAPP law.

01:25Melania's team calls the claims baseless, prompting media retractions, while her public

01:30memoir narrates a polished version of her life and marriage to Trump, contrasting Wolff's investigation.

01:36The lawsuit against Melania Trump is still early but could revive the Epstein scandal through

01:42subpoenas and depositions, potentially extending beyond the First Lady.

01:45The White House has yet to comment, and the case's full scope remains uncertain.
