Congress still has a trick up its sleeve to make Maxwell testify against Trump: lawyer

Political analysts and observers may have left this week's Congressional deposition of Jeffrey Epstein's accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell wanting more, but Congress still has a trick up its sleeve to make Maxwell sing, according to one lawyer. Maxwell appeared before the House Oversight Committee on Monday for a closed-door deposition, where she invoked her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. Ahead of the hearing, Maxwell claimed that she was willing to clear President Donald Trump's name in exchange for clemency, an offer that the president has so far resisted. Andrew Weissmann, a former federal prosecutor, said during an interview on "The Illegal News" podcast with Sarah Longwell, publisher of The Bulwark, that Congress could leverage Maxwell's assertion of the Fifth Amendment to secure her testimony. "The way it works is even though she has a Fifth Amendment, the way that you can get around that, it's not really get around it, is that you can sort of solve for that, is to say, 'You're now given immunity, meaning that everything you say cannot be used to prosecute you,'" Weissmann said. Accepting an immunity offer could force Maxwell to testify, and would make it more legally perilous for her if she lies. "If she then just refuses after [questions] being given immunity, just to be clear, that is contempt and that is a separate crime and the punishment for that is consecutive to any crime that you're any any time that you're doing," Weissmann said.

Are backflips allowed in figure skating? Why everyone is talking about Surya Bonaly

U.S. figure skater and gold-medal favorite Ilia Malinin stunned fans when he delivered a backflip during the men’s short program of the team competition on Saturday. The 20-year-old from Virginia came up short of expectations, however, when he scored below 100 points and came in second behind Japan’s Yuma Kagiyama. The score narrowed the gap between the two countries, setting up a nail-biting conclusion Sunday to the team competition. Malinin became the first Olympian to successfully land the trick in almost 30 years. The backflip, which was long banned in competition because of its inherent danger, is allowed now, though it also doesn’t carry a whole lot of scoring weight.The move was first performed back at the 1976 Games by U.S. skater Terry Kubicka. The International Skating Union quickly banned the backflip the following year. That wouldn’t stop Olympians from trying the move. During the 1998 Winter Olympics, French skater Surya Bonaly performed the trick, impressively landing on one blade. She did receive a deduction for performing the illegal trick.

(Photo by John Tlumacki/The Boston Globe via Getty Images)Amid the rapturous applause for Malinin’s successful backflip, many skating fans were quick to give praise to Bonaly for her impressive moves as well. “Surya Bonaly originated the backflip in the Winter Olympics and was penalized for it. She should have won the gold medal,” actor Wendall Pierce posted. “The Olympic Committee owes her an apology and a gold medal.”“Judges used to underscore her and I loved that she did the backflip in her last performance before retiring as a big FU to the establishment,” one X user pointed out. Bonaly is a three-time World silver medalist, five-time European champion and nine-time French national champion. She retired soon after the 1998 Games.
