"Wolff, who has penned four best-selling books about President Trump, accuses Melania Trump of launching a campaign of threats to intimidate him from digging deeper into the first couple's friendship with Epstein, according to legal papers obtained by The News. These threatened legal actions are designed to create a climate of fear in the nation so that people cannot freely or confidently exercise their First Amendment rights, Wolff's 17-page claim reads. The threats are also intended to shut down legitimate inquiry into the Epstein matter."
"Wolff filed his complaint against Melania Trump in Manhattan Supreme Court on Tuesday. It says she threatened last week to sue him for $1 billion if he did not pull the plug on the book project and pay compensation to her by 5 p.m. on Tuesday. Wolff, who claims to have conducted hours of interviews with Epstein, stands by his disclosure that Epstein claimed the Trumps first had sex while flying on his notorious private jet. He also insists that the Trumps' marriage is a sham and that Melania Trump is a driving force behind her husband's efforts to turn the page on the politically damaging scandal."
Michael Wolff filed a 17-page complaint in Manhattan Supreme Court accusing First Lady Melania Trump of launching a campaign of threats to stop his planned book about ties between the Trumps and Jeffrey Epstein. The suit alleges Melania threatened to sue for $1 billion unless Wolff halted the project and paid compensation by a set deadline. Wolff maintains interviews with Epstein and stands by disclosures about encounters on Epstein's private jet and asserts the Trumps' marriage is a sham. The complaint invokes New York civil-rights and anti-SLAPP law, alleging efforts to chill free speech and hinder inquiry.
