Chris Hayes @chrislhayes.bsky.social · Dec 31 This WSJ article adds some fascinating context to the NYT article that has the mother of a 14 year old model brought to Mar-a-Lago for a party having Maples come up to her and saying keep those girls away from these men and my husband. Maples denies she said it.

Your MS NOW colleague Katy Tur responds: "Chris Hayes, does this give you pause?"
everyone around Trump gets amnesia.
She knew then, she knows now…she just keeps it to herself so she can live a comfortable life with lots of money in the bank. She is just as evil and culpable by standing by & allowing it all to happen & not go to the authorities.
Sex trafficking was a business deal for Trump, Epstein and Russia. bsky.app/profile/umai...
Marla Maples was there while Ivanka was a teenager and knows exactly what Trump did to her and other girls. But she is still on his payroll and doesn’t want to wind up getting buried on a fucking golf course so, of course, she’s going to deny everything.
How to: get buried on you husband's golf course.
Maples should be required to provide sworn testimony to Congress.
NDA = Never Divulge Anything
Setting aside who said what at that time, is it fair to say that it's now obvious that DONALD TRUMP a) hosted parties featuring teenage girls, b) engaged in lewd and lascivious behavior ... , and c) was materially involved w/ Jeffery Epstein finances, money laundering, sex trafficking for profit,...
Pretty sure Maples has an NDA with Trump from their divorce.
Maples doesn’t want to get pushed down some stairs then buried in an unkempt grave on a two bit golf course… Think she has reason to lie?
She doesn't want to end up under the 9th hole.
of course she denies it..she knows what happened to Ivana
“Adds some fascinating context” is exactly the crap I would expect from someone like you who ACTIVELY worked against either one of the female candidates against trump. Even supposed left wing palemales will screw us over every single time.
Is Marla still getting checks from The Donald?
Maples denies who said what? (Sorry, been reading a lot of PDFs today; my eyes are a bit blurry.) All I'm seeing is a "Representatives for Maples didn’t respond to requests for comment."
Seems like Marla didn't know who she married of she thought Epstein was the problem. (And yes I'm very much saying the evil pedophile sex trafficker was somehow the more moral of that friendship.)
Marla maples married and had a child with Donald Trump. She has no judgment.
Subpoena time
Intersting ... Trump opened Mar-a-Lago in 1995 to which Epstein, Trumps buddy & some suggest associate, was an attendee. Then Trump bough Miss Teen USA in 1996. ... Coincidence? A teen triage for Epstein? Hhmmm🤔
She doesn’t want to end up in a sand trap somewhere.
Well, i'm sold!
And this same Marla Maples didn't think something was "wrong" and "off" with the creepy, mentally ill guy she was cheating with and later got pregnant with before marrying him?? Not the sharpest tool in the shed, eh?
Maples wants to stay far away from the grass on a golf course. She is going to deny it as long as Trump is breathing.
Maples doesn’t want to take a trip. Down stairs.
She must be under some series non-disclosure agreement to keep her alimony payments coming in.
Me thinks Maples doesn't want to 'accidently' fall down a set of stairs.
Well of course she denies it. She doesn’t wanna end up in a box.
maples' statement was very legalistic, not blanket denial
Those Trump exes seem to live on a very short leash, don't they... Both Marla, now, and Ivanna, previously, spoke out and then backtracked when it looked like 'uh-oh- Donnie won't like that'....
Of course Maples denies saying it -- her NDA must require she says that to receive her checks
focus on trump campaigning on "draining the swamp"-release the epstein files-don't be distracted of more files "showing up"delay, delay, delay-just charge her with contempt-stop letting them defy the law-stop them down-arrest her-do something-forget about fining her-WTF america-demand truth
Of course Maples denies it, she knows if she doesn't she'll end up buried on his golf course for a tax break.
Marla could actually be a hero here, but looks like greed and the thought of losing money is making her waffle like Jello.
By that time, Epstein had already recorded the Child Molester in Chief molesting multiple children. It was through those recordings, which are being withheld from the public, that Epstein had such influence over the big-ass child molester in our White House.🫵😎
There’s a special place in Hell for any woman who will give shelter to a pedophile behind an NDA…
Maples doesn't want to get Ivana'd. I'd be scared, too.
She better stay away from stairs
Why is this a surprise? They knew then? If people still think BROWN STAIN didn’t know you’re naive. He hired young women and had underage girls around MAR-A-BROTHEL. Papers were filed with Those two rapping a child. it got tossed When she and her family started getting Death threats. BFF YEP!
They say when there’s smoke there’s fire. I believe Marla Maples when she was married to Trump most likely did make that comment. She was a stand up pretty straight shooter.
Anyone who doubts Trumps complicity with Epstein is a fool! Maples didn’t stay married to the monster for long. Wonder why?
FFOTUS Kraznov the DIC's exes have to be mendacious to ensure their children continue receiving his money. If and when he gives them any. Her denial is no more credible than any dreck that comes out of his mouth.
It just goes to show you I'm just as much of a pathetic piece of Autistic shit on Blue Sky as I am on fucking Facebook I wish I had the strength to just fucking kill myself I really don't wanna be here anymore goodbye 2026. 😭
When the Dems regain the House, they must subpoena all of these tRUMPy pedo criminal nutjobs. They ALL KNEW what was going on and did nothing at the time to protect these young girls and refuse to help them now.
Weeks old news Hayes🤷♂️
Here's some more context about having children around that felon and rapist
Shes probably met him there. I heard that a certain lady lawyer was photographed there with Pres Pedo when she was 14. Probably assaulted her too
Calling B.S. on Marla.
If your moral compass still points to the NYT while genocide unfolds, it’s not broken — it’s calibrated Spare me the NYT I stopped listening when they stopped caring about children starving in flooded tents Chris!!!!!!
I mean...what else would she say though? She's got a kid with him & he would make both their lives miserable given how petty & vengeful he is. Plus he prob made her sign some weird NDA with a lot of insane conditions because that's something he would totally do.
Marla doesn’t want to take a tumble down some stairs and end up under the 9th hole at Trump’s golf club.
She wants to stay alive 😉
Isnt leaking this sealed divorce decree something right up @youranona.bsky.social @opdeatheaters.bsky.social alley🤔
Maples doesn't want to fall down a flight of stairs or get suicided or drink some thallium tea
Lifestyle of the rich and famous episode where interview with taco and Naples after daughter was born listen how taco talks about baby’s breast
She’s complicit
Of course!
She doesn’t want to fall down the stairs.
Of course Maples denies making the comment. She is financially dependent on Trump.
My guess is frontotemporal dementia, for which he receives IV infusions of monoclonal antibodies, with underlying psychopathy.
So Marla, what did you see and hear. Don’t sell your soul for money!
Of course she does. She’s operating under very strict conditions, is she not?
This makes Trump sound like a victim or thrall to Epstein. Trump was selling girls in that spa of his. They were both in the human trafficking and child rape business. Maples thinking Epstein was ‘off’ while f—king Donald Trump is a hoot!😂
I’m shocked,shocked to find solicitation of minors going on at Mar a Lago … according to everyone that knew this was happening
It took 9 years and a second Trump presidency for all this to come out? Remarkable how much foul conduct Trump kept secret for so long.
Those non-disclosure agreements are powerful things
Maples cash flow is in direct proportion to continued lying - she’s an imbecile
Of course she denies it. I’m sure he’s continuing to pay her and Tiffany for their lifestyles.
No wonder she fell down the stairs 😳
I bet he made her sign a horrible document to keep her quiet.
Marla Maples has many ($$$$$) reasons to deny all of this now.
Trumps only American wife was young and had moral grounding. She knew Trump was a pedophile and that young girls were in danger from him and she moved to intercede. It's no wo Der why she didn't last.
I don’t think she did
Probably because she doesn’t wanna end up dead
She signed an NDA. Just like everyone else who knows what the old orange stain is.
I'm sure Marla is also despicable in her own special way. Trump is a sleaze magnet.
Not really fascinating. Fascinating would have been if we learned Marla Maples called the fucking authorities to say "these men are molesting children"
Maples knows when someone is “wrong” or “off”…….. ???
Curiouser and curiouser.
Marla was beautiful and found her ticket to financial success in stealing Trump. Claimed Trump was the best sex she ever had, flattering him. She never remarried. Was on Dancing With The Stars and showed she’s not too bright. Got her daughter married off to a wealthy man.
Maples is also a piece of shit - money over dignity and justice
Yes, not too many people can survive credible death threats.
Mar-a-lago was Krasnov's BROTHEL like his GP
Marla telling the truth??? Ya sure she is 🙄
Trump threatened her
Of course she does
The mother didn't think it was weird that a 14-year old would be invited to a Mar-a-Lago party in the first place? This reminds me of the part in The Godfather (the book) in which the mother pimped her nubile young daughter to Jack Woltz for a movie contract.
Maples doesn’t want to fall down a flight of stairs. Or end up buried on a golf course.
I'm convinced that the only thing that could cause Trump and Epstein to separate is money.
I keep thinking that where there is smoke there is fire. cbwrong.blogspot.com/2025/12/what...
What's up with this one ? Why isn't the news media all over this ??
Like we need more nuanced context to know Epstein and 47 obsessed over f**king and/or raping underage girls. #Pedo47
Been thinking, has Marple ever been questioned? 🤔
Of course she denies it. She doesn't want to fall down a flight of stairs. 😬
Of course she denies it. She doesn't want to end up on a golf course
I've said this before, Ivana and Donald Trump's divorce records should be examined. I believe @nytimes.com filed a lawsuit for access but it's not clear what the outcome of this was.
Now, this does NOT let those pedos off the hook. Not at all. But my mom wouldn’t have let me be flown to some island to party with older guys. Eww. I would never done that. Even without my mom’s concern. Oh well.
If Marla doesn't deny saying this, she would then, by definition, be complicit. Of fucking course she's denying. . . Just another white woman of privilege screwing over ALL women because she got hers.
And she never noticed anything off about the creep she married?
Geezuz H. The WSJ said this about the NYT? Come on. Get these people that know the truth, cover their NDA "fines" by 10x, cover their protection costs, forever - so we can put the fucker where he belongs
Marla might have something to add. Am hoping the press has reached out with compensation commensurate with NDA penalties from "the perp".
whoa, this is some next-level pickle juice drama. like, can we please stop acting like this is normal? mad respect for calling out the absurdity, though!
There is so much evidence trail enough to reach the sun Yet "not enough evidence" for white men to arrest the president ... Everyone in media including news anchors are pedophiles you can't be on TV w/out being a pedophile That's why media is not pushing for immediate resignation White men
Imagine being the kind of person who would deny telling girls to stay away from Epstein and Trump. I would be like, dam right i told those girls to stay away from those dirty old perverted men
I mean, sure he bragged about grabbing women by the pussy, and he cheated on all of his wives, and had sex with a porn star, and is an adjudicated rapist, and there is evidence one of his former wives warned young girls to stay away from him, but how can we be sure he’s in the Epstein files???
And here i though she might be a decent person, seems I was wrong and Maples is just another MAGA cult nutjob
Of course, Marla denies it, She saw what happened to Ivana. And she needs to keep tiffany on that money train.
the NDA she signed is worth a lot.
She doesn't want to fall down a flight of stairs and visit a golf club permanently....
Funny how Marla saw right through Epstein and tried to shield everyone from him, and Melania just joined in the fun at clubs with Epstein and Maxwell.
She doesn’t want to end up dead at the bottom of a staircase.
Epstein and Shit4Brains were partners in the abuse and trafficking of young girls. Shit4Brains dimed out Jeff to the Palm Beach PD so he was never implicated. That’s why they fell out with each other. Shitler stole money, and set him up. Prove me wrong
Trump was married to Marla Maples while he sexually assaulted several women. She knew.
As Marla wasn't one of the prostitutes brought in on genius visas, perhaps trump figured best to dump her and take one of the epstein prostitutes as a new bride. No complaints from the new wife to inhibit all the fun.
Thank you for reporting on this!!
Marla willingly fucked a married man, went on vacation at the same resort drumpf was vacationing w his family & (according to drumpf) lied about being on birth control so she could "trap" him & supposedly leaked their affair to force a divorce. As scum, she fits right in w that family.
She probably signed a NDA like everbody has to around Yam Tits that cut ties. No if's, and or buts. She did- I would assume - to get as much $$ as she could for her and daughter, probably got treated for STD's and took off. Alledgedly. 🤨🤨
Is maples locked into a NDA?
Imagine that.
She knows but is another paid person to be quite, she needs to go to jail also, she allowed old men to sleep with young girls for years, arrest her also.
Bring her in for questioning with the mother also, these gold diggers will lie for money, that's who trump slept with, she got hersekf pregnant to get the money, his first fell down the stairs, sounds like a Putin story, pushed out of a window or poisoned story.
Maples didn't have the abortion Dementia DonOLD paid for her to have. He's been paying for Tiffany ever since, even though he doesn't even acknowledge her existence. So, silence purchased. Check cleared.
Marla has memories of Ivana and doesn't want to be next.
But the bitch will sit back now and collect her monthly payments from the pig and not say a fukn word!
It adds context to Why Tiffany seemed less involved with Trump and his business than his other children. Was Tiffany ever a child model like Ivanka?
She needs to speak up NOW
She should have warned staff about her husband trump.
Maples is subject to an nda. Never trust the response of a party subject to a nda. They signed away their credibility as part of the deal. We should recognize that point.
And yet her their daughter sadly thirsts for her father’s attention. Is that sad or craven? Idk. But bless her for trying to protect some.
Why would grown men need 14 yr olds for private manicures? Trump and Epstein were thick as thieves, both predators and scum.
trumps influence on Epstein!
Marla’s divorce settlement probably prohibits her from saying anything negative about her sociopathic ex-husband.
She should be proud but I guess she would get Cut off or have a Fall. 🤷🏼♂️
These fucking people. She cheated with Shitler while he was married to Ivanka. She's no better. Fuck her.
She’s a liar and a gaslighter just like the fat orange pig she married for money. Rancid POS. 🤓🔵👍🏼
Old news hayes. Go hang at Twitter where you belong.
Probably signed an NDA with trump to keep schtum about his perversions in return for a good divorce settlement.
She doesn't want to end up being buried beside the first wife.
Subpoena her.
I think the conversation might be more riveting in a mother’s memory.
Of course Maples denied it, she doesn’t want to end up on a golf course beside Ivanka!
Maples is from MTG's neck of the woods in GA?!
"Mother of a 14 year old girl". I fixed it for you.
Maples in 2016 signed a NDA in exchange for lots of money and a Manhattan apartment for Tiffany. She proceeded to take pictures in yachts in the French Riviera, where Tiffany met her rich husband. She’ll never talk. She had threatened to write a book, and Trump shot that down with $$$$$$.
Of course she denies it. She’s afraid of Trump, just like the rest of them. Trump is nuts.
Careful, before she has an event on some stairs...
Marla doesn’t want to be buried on a golf course.
So she’s claiming to have been clueless when it was apparently a very open secret among the very rich Epstein hung out with?
🤍
Maples probably doesn’t want to be murdered like Ivanna
Remember when he thought e. Jean Carroll was Marla maples? Weird.
Remember when he thought e. Jean Carroll was Marla maples? Just weird.
Why didn't she leak it to a friend, lawyer, extended family, someone to get around the NDA. Anyone with a conscience would have done something.
That woman is still alive, no? Hopefully living well and safe in a home with no stairs and all? I mean, many ppl are saying, and everybody knows it.. I never met her. 🤷♀️
Of course Marla would deny it!
Of course,Maples wants her payoff to keep coming. (See maxwells change of prisons).
She could saved us all the trouble by outting both Trump and Epstein, but I'm sure her contract with the Pedo in Chief forbade her from saying anything, or risk losing whatever he was paying her after the divorce. She knew he was a child raping fuck, and said nothing.
She probably has to say that. NDA and death threats I'm sure.
If anything should happen to Marla, her lawyer opens the letter.
Of course she does, she was complicit. She had knowledge of repeated and ongoing criminal activity and sat on her botoxed butt about it.
She has an NDA to protect 🤷🏾♂️
She needs to be made to testify. And NDAs be damned.
She denies it to avoid falling down any staircases.
You mean, "MAGA- loco"?!
Oh I believe she said it
So, "Maples NOW denies she said it," but multiple other employees witnessed it and contradict her? That seems relevant.
She has to deny saying it lest she find herself buried on the golf course at Mar a Lago
Marla Maples is not going to say a single negative thing NOW ! ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Maples probably has an NDA with trump.
Trustworthy source of denial...
Please Chris. Look into this change about to happen at USPS on December 31, mail that is picked up is not immediately dated any longer from local post offices. It now has to arrive at regional processing centers. It will effect everything from legal letters to mail in voting!
Of course she denies it. She’ll lose her stipend.
Marla has been asked to keep quiet, I see, just like all the other women in Trump's social circles who know stuff. 🫤
I thought Trump's ex wife was dead...
It’s suspicious he didn’t state an age limit for little boys…
Marla knew what’s up.
Marla Maples... She was an actress, i guess (i saw her on EXECUTIVE DECISION with Kurt Russell and Steven Seagal)
Marla Maples has too many stairs in her apartment to not deny it.
Adds to why she took Tiffany away from the limelight after her divorce moving to Calabasas.
She needs to tell what she does know. Ppl that stay quiet are not helpful to anyone right now
Maples was married to trump. That is all I need to know to dismiss anything with Maples name attached to it. Women/trump = Gold diggers
Why decent mother takes her 14 y/o daughter to a private party??! Do not tell me mummy didn’t have a price…
Unless she wants to topple down a flight of stairs or become unexpectedly suicidal she should probably stick to saying nothing.
I still think that Trump never threatened Marla Maples. He threatened Tiffany. There's a reason she moved across the country and took Tiffany with her. She knows what he's capable of. As long as she has to protect her daughter, she will.
i get so confused between all #this #horrorshow wives
Trump’s first wife Ivana famously recanted after testifying in horrific detail about being savagely assaulted and raped by Trump, because his stitches hurt.
