Tara Palmeri: EXCLUSIVE: Deciding Vote Blocking Epstein Files Tied To Ghislaine Maxwell

"What hidden connections could a U.S. senator have to Jeffrey Epstein’s inner circle?

In this exclusive episode, reporter and researcher Abi Baker and I to dive into my bombshell investigation from The Red Letter, uncovering Senator Lisa Murkowski’s ties to Ghislaine Maxwell and her husband, Scott Borgerson, through elite Arctic Circle conferences and powerful Alaskan donors. You can read the full investigation here:Tara Palmeri.

We break down how Murkowski, the deciding vote against releasing the Epstein files, shares a tangled web of connections with Maxwell. From Senate hearings to high-profile events, we reveal the details and ask why transparency remains elusive. Check out the full story at TaraPalmeri.com and join us for part one of our series, The Reckoning, as we hold those blocking the Epstein files accountable.

"How one survivor is exposing Senator Lisa Murkowski’s quiet ties to Ghislaine Maxwell and her husband Scott Borgerson.

Here’s the thing about the victims of Jeffrey Epstein: they’re not going away. In fact, they’re hellbent on forcing Congress to pay attention after being ignored for decades. That’s why I’m launching The Reckoning, a series spotlighting how survivors are taking justice into their own hands because no one else will. These reports will track how they’re breaking chains of silence and demanding accountability from leaders while the Justice Department still refuses to release the Epstein files.

Part one of the series zeroes in on Epstein survivor and Alaskan Marijke Chartouni, who has turned her attention to Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), the deciding vote on September 10 to block the release of the Epstein files. Chartouni uncovered Murkowski’s longstanding ties to Ghislaine Maxwell’s husband, Scott Borgerson, and the many occasions Murkowski appeared on stage with Maxwell at ocean-advocacy conferences. They were appearances that, intentionally or not, helped launder Maxwell’s name even as she was publicly linked to Epstein...

As I wrote about this 2 weeks ago: 

"Senator Murkowski making the case for Congressional term limits with just this 1 statement right here: 

"The amendment was a surprise and disrupted the normal process of working on the defense bill."

This is what you can sound like when you've been in Congress for over 20 years: you run out of good policy arguments to vote against something that could hurt you with your right-wing, if you vote against them and instead rely on procedure, because you don't want to offend other voters in your state, or hurt your credibility in Washington...

From The New Democrat

So what Tara Palmeri and her associate discovered through their investigation, would explain why Senator Lisa Murkowski sounded like a senator who was just wrapping up a 20 hour filibuster and instead of just reading out of the local Washington phonebook, or reading from a children's book, or the ingredients from a bunch of can goods... she instead says: 

"The amendment was a surprise and disrupted the normal process of working on the defense bill."

That was the official reason for why Senator Murkowski voted against the release of the Epstein files, 18 days ago. But the real reason looks like that this distinguished Senator is probably in the Epstein files, or at least in the Ghislaine Maxwell files. Because she has a working relationship with Maxwell's ex-husband, Scott Borgerson. 

Now, if there is evidence that Mr. Borgerson is, or was a campaign contributor to 1 of Senator Murkowksi's campaigns, that would be what we call in Washington a smoking gun. But at least we now know the real reason why she voted against the release of the Epstein files. And it has nothing to do with Congressional procedures and rules. 

This Murkowski-Borgerson connection, you could say this is 1 reason why people hate Congress and their representatives. 1 problem with that: the people keep voting for the same people over and over who are primarily, if not exclusively interested in their own political careers. So who's fault is that?
