From Giuffre v. Maxwell (1:15-cv-07433)
December 21st, 2025
UPDATE: This has been disappeared, redacted removing references to Trump, and reposted.
Saving for posterity. From Giuffre v. Maxwell Case No. 1:15-CV-07433, Exhibit A which was overly redacted, but wasn’t fully redacted of references to Trump, and like some other documents released, will probably be illegally disappeared soon (and note the Bates numbers, many pages from Ransome are missing, they may not be part of this Exhibit A but I’ll bet their relevant and interesting):

Oh, how very Presidential…
December 15th, 2025
As if war, warS, murder on the high seas, violations of Constitution and law every day, disregard for people following the legal processes to become citizens, putting the country’s health at risk by pulling out health insurance out from under them, pardoning of J6 insurrectionists and criminals guilty of extreme fraud… etc., etc., etc., as if that wasn’t enough… this is clear enough for the world to recognize that Trump is an abhorrent POS:
Yes, just look at “this raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump, with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights…”
Of course I told him what I think in technicolor, by mail in my daily postcard and a letter with this screenshot (1600 Pennsylvania Ave, Washington, DC 20500), and calling both comment line (202) 456-1111 and switchboard (202) 456-1414 AND the contact form: https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
Your turn, you know what to do!
Sure, add me to the “Anti-Fascist” list — I’ll wear that label proudly.
