Is This Deported Model the Reason Melania Distanced Herself From Epstein?

On Thursday afternoon, First Lady Melania Trump addressed the nation in a six-minute-long speech.

“The lies linking me with the disgraceful Jeffrey Epstein need to end today. The individuals lying about me are devoid of ethical standards, humility, and respect,” she began. She went on to deliver a meandering account, distancing herself from the convicted sex offender.

At 9 p.m. Wednesday, prior to Melania’s speech, an account that appears to belong to Amanda Ungaro, a Brazilian former model who resided in the United States for 23 years prior to being deported by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in June 2025, posted a message to former U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

“Are you already aware of the situation?” she wrote. “Do you fully understand the extent of the information I possess regarding you and the individuals associated with you? I strongly advise you to consider the seriousness of these matters. Any actions taken against me or attempts to escalate this situation could have significant legal consequences,” Ungaro continued.

“I expect this to be handled with the appropriate level of responsibility and professionalism moving forward.” The post was accompanied by four photos, including what appears to be a young Ungaro holding a baby. [The X Post has since been removed.]

Melania Suddenly Breaks Silence on Epstein Scandal — Denies Ties to Maxwell Despite Email Evidence

First Lady Melania Trump stunned Washington on Thursday with a rare and forceful public statement addressing lingering questions about her past proximity to convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein — while also calling for sweeping public hearings into his network of associates.

Speaking from the White House, Melania flatly denied any involvement in Epstein’s crimes and moved to distance herself from his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell, despite resurfaced evidence showing the two once had limited social contact.

“I am not Epstein’s victim. Epstein did not introduce me to Donald Trump,” she said, adding that while their social circles occasionally overlapped in places like New York and Palm Beach, she “never had a relationship with Epstein or his accomplice.”

Her remarks come amid renewed scrutiny of Epstein-related records, including a 2002 email exchange between Melania and Maxwell that was recently made public. In the message, Melania sent a friendly note referencing a magazine story about Epstein and suggesting they connect in New York.

Addressing the email directly, Melania dismissed it as insignificant. “My reply cannot be categorized as anything more than casual correspondence,” she said, calling it a “trivial note” that did not reflect any deeper relationship.

Still, the resurfacing of that exchange has reignited interest in the extent of her past proximity to Maxwell — a woman widely described as a central figure in Epstein’s criminal enterprise. At the time, both moved in overlapping elite social circles, where interactions among high-profile figures were not uncommon.

Melania emphasized she had no knowledge of Epstein’s abuse and never visited his private island or traveled on his plane — two key points that have been central to allegations involving other figures linked to the case.

“I know what I did, and more importantly, what I didn’t do,” she said.

In a surprising twist, the first lady went further, urging Congress to hold public hearings featuring victims in order to expose those connected to Epstein’s crimes — a move that could put renewed pressure on political and social elites.

The call is notable given that her husband, Donald Trump, previously downplayed renewed attention on the Epstein case, at times framing it as politically motivated. Trump and Epstein were known to have socialized in the past before reportedly falling out in the early 2000s.

Melania’s decision to address the issue so directly — and publicly — has fueled speculation that more revelations could be forthcoming. Whether her remarks were preemptive or simply an effort to draw a clear line between herself and the scandal remains unclear.

What is certain is that her statement has once again pulled the Epstein saga — and the powerful figures who once orbited it — back into the spotlight.

Melania Trump Secures Agreement With Russia On Displaced Ukrainian Children

First lady Melania Trump announced Friday that she secured an agreement with Russia on the reunification of Ukrainian children with their families.

Trump spoke for six minutes, sharing that she had been keeping an “open channel of communication” with Russian President Vladimir Putin over displaced Ukrainian children. She shared that Russia agreed to return Ukrainian children with their families, and in the 24 hours since the agreement, eight children have been returned.

“Each child has lived in turmoil because of the war in Ukraine,” Melania Trump said. “Three were separated from their parents and displaced to the Russian Federation because of frontline fighting. The other five were separated from family members across borders because of the conflict, including one young girl who has now been reunited from Ukraine to Russia.”

The first lady also said she had expressed concern over children who were displaced as minors but have since turned 18 years old. Russia has also agreed to return these children, she announced. (Read more from “Melania Trump Secures Agreement With Russia On Displaced Ukrainian Children” HERE)

Melania Trump Threatens $1B Lawsuit Against Hunter Biden Over Epstein Claim

First Lady Melania Trump has threatened legal action against Hunter Biden, demanding he retract comments linking her introduction to former President Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein.

In an Aug. 6 demand letter obtained by Fox News, Melania’s attorney, Alejandro Brito, accused Biden of making “false, defamatory, disparaging, and inflammatory” statements during a recent appearance on the YouTube program Channel 5 with Andrew Callaghan. Brito said the remarks caused “overwhelming financial and reputational harm” and warned that failure to retract them could lead to a lawsuit seeking more than $1 billion in damages.

According to Brito, Biden claimed in the interview that Epstein introduced Melania to Donald Trump, citing allegations from author Michael Wolff. The attorney described Wolff as a “serial fabulist” and asserted the claim was untrue. Biden also commented on “connections” between figures in Epstein’s network, which Brito characterized as baseless.

The letter was sent to both Biden and his attorney, Abbe Lowell, and calls for an immediate public retraction.

Daily Beast Walks Back Explosive Epstein Allegation About Melania Trump

The Daily Beast has been forced to retract an eyebrow-raising story linking former First Lady Melania Trump to notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein — after her legal team swiftly stepped in.

The now-pulled article, originally published Wednesday, cited controversial author Michael Wolff’s remarks in a podcast interview, where he alleged Melania had close ties to Epstein’s circle and first met Donald Trump through ID Models founder Paolo Zampolli — a figure connected to both Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

But following a cease-and-desist-style letter from Mrs. Trump’s attorney, the outlet admitted it had crossed the line. In an editor’s note now replacing the article, the Daily Beast stated it “received a letter from First Lady Melania Trump’s attorney challenging the headline and framing of the article.” The note continued, “After reviewing the matter, the Beast has taken down the article and apologizes for any confusion or misunderstanding.”

Wolff’s sensational claims — which remain viewable in the original podcast video on The Daily Beast’s YouTube channel — suggested Melania was “very involved” in Epstein’s social web and even claimed her first intimate encounter with Trump occurred aboard Epstein’s private jet.

The false report adds fuel to the ongoing controversy surrounding Epstein’s connections to powerful elites, especially after the DOJ and FBI announced in early July that Epstein’s 2019 death was ruled a suicide and that no so-called client list exists.

Former President Donald Trump has long denied wrongdoing, previously telling reporters he banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago after learning he had allegedly targeted young women working at the club — including then-17-year-old Virginia Giuffre, who accused Epstein of trafficking her.

As Wolff’s unverified claims swirl, the former First Lady is clearly signaling that she won’t tolerate attempts to rewrite her history — especially not with Epstein’s name in the headline.

Maxine Waters Questions Melania Trump’s Legal Status in Bizarre Attack

California Rep. Maxine Waters (D) suggested Saturday during an anti-Trump administration rally in Los Angeles that first lady Melania Trump is in the country illegally.

It appears that the 86-year-old Democrat’s failed attempt at a mic-drop moment was the product not only of decrepitude and hypocrisy but of a gross misapprehension of key facts.

On his first day in office, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to end birthright citizenship for children of illegal aliens. Trump noted in the order that “the privilege of United States citizenship does not automatically extend to persons born in the United States” if those individuals’ parents were illegally in the country or not lawful permanent residents at the time of their birth.

Multiple federal judges blocked the order, and multiple appeals courts have refused to overturn those injunctions. The matter will soon be settled by the U.S. Supreme Court.

In the meantime, leftists, both foreign and domestic, have complained about the distinct possibility that illegal aliens’ anchor babies won’t always be conferred citizenship. (Read more from “Maxine Waters Questions Melania Trump’s Legal Status in Bizarre Attack” HERE)

Melania Trump Trashes Jill Biden After Revealing She Called Her Post-assassination Attempt — Questions if Her ‘Concern Was Genuine’

Melania Trump, the once and future first lady, revealed that current first lady Jill Biden reached out to her following the July 13 assassination attempt against President-elect Donald Trump in Butler, Pa.

But Trump also said she doubts Biden was being sincere — given the inflammatory rhetoric Jill had unleashed just a few days earlier.

“I do question, however, whether Jill’s concern was genuine, as a few days prior she referred to my husband as ‘evil’ and a ‘liar,’” she told French outlet Paris Match in an interview just before the election.

“It was obvious that the onslaught of rhetoric from Democrat leaders and the mainstream media was so deeply embedded in our nation’s consciousness it prompted an attempt to assassinate Donald.”

President Biden, 81, similarly spoke to Donald Trump, 78, just after a bullet grazed his right ear and came within a quarter-inch of ending his life.

Melania Trump Declines To Meet With Jill Biden at White House, Citing Mar-a-Lago Raid: Source

Melania Trump declined an offer to head to the White House Wednesday and meet with Jill Biden, citing the Biden administration’s past raid on Mar-a-Lago as part of the federal government’s investigation into classified documents.

“She ain’t going,” a source familiar with Melania’s decision told The Post. “Jill Biden’s husband authorized the FBI snooping through her underwear drawer. The Bidens are disgusting,” the source said.

“Jill Biden isn’t someone Melania needs to meet,” the source added.

Melania’s husband, President-elect Donald Trump, will sit with President Joe Biden in the Oval Office Wednesday for a traditional postelection meeting.

Typically, the first lady hosts their replacement for tea in the White House. (Read more from “Melania Trump Declines To Meet With Jill Biden at White House, Citing Mar-a-Lago Raid: Source” HERE)

Melania’s Abortion Support Further Discourages Pro-Life Votes For Trump

It shouldn’t have been a surprise. Melania Trump had a successful career as a model. She’s married to one of the most prominent businessmen and politicians in the world. She fits the feminist demographic. Of course she supports abortion.

But for pro-lifers who’ve been arguing that Donald Trump is the pro-life option since 2016, it still hurts a little.

Melania’s book, titled Melania, isn’t set to be released until Oct. 8, but it’s already making headlines. The book reportedly reveals that the former and perhaps future first lady is an advocate of a supposed “right” to abortion, and in one promotional video for the book, Melania speaks explicitly about a woman’s right to what she calls “individual freedom.”

“Individual freedom is a fundamental principle that I safeguard. Without a doubt, there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that all women possess from birth: individual freedom. What does ‘my body, my choice’ really mean?” . . .

“Why should anyone other than the woman herself have the power to determine what she does with her own body?” she reportedly wrote in her book. “A woman’s fundamental right of individual liberty, to her own life, grants her the authority to terminate her pregnancy if she wishes.” . . .

That is a radical statement. Melania, it seems, would oppose any restriction on abortion. She’s not even making the argument that many pro-abortion advocates make that abortions should at least be granted in cases of incest, rape, or when the life of the mother is threatened. Any restriction, at all, Melania has decided, violates a woman’s so-called right to choose. Never mind an unborn child’s right to life.

Report: Here’s Who Melania Wants Trump to Pick for VP

Melania Trump is pushing for her husband to pick Tucker Carlson as his 2024 running mate if he secures the Republican nomination for president, according to a report.

The former first lady believes the ex-Fox News host would be a “powerful onstage extension” of her husband, former President Donald Trump, according to Axios.

But there is stiff competition, as Trump, 77, is also considering more politically experienced candidates for the No. 2 post — such as Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio), Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and Reps. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), according to the outlet.

Kari Lake, who lost her 2022 bid to be Arizona’s Republican governor and is now running for US Senate in the state, is also among the “loyalist”-types that Trump is reportedly considering for vice president.

Despite being Melania’s preferred choice, the former president’s staff and people close to him reportedly fear that Carlson would “outshine” Donald Trump and that the talk show host “can’t be controlled,” according to Axios.
