The what Would Jesus Do? Maga Christian Republicans are considering supporting a pardon for convicted trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell. Long buried allegations about Epstein's Zorro ranch in New Mexico are finally getting the scrutiny they deserve, including claims of gang and bodies buried in the desert. Representative Melanie Stansberry was interviewed for a segment on 60 Minutes Australia. Let's play the clip.
Interviewee/Survivor
A man actually claims that he met Jeffrey Epstein, was brought to the ranch, he was drugged, and he describes in detail a scene in which multiple young men were at the ranch in front of him after he was drugged.
Narrator/Reporter
You hear about Jeffrey Epstein's penchant for minors and for young women, but not men. We haven't heard that before.
Interviewee/Survivor
Yeah, I mean, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were serial abusers. So they really were super predators. And it's clear that they this was just how they live their lives.
Podcast Host
This is, it's stunning to me because the accusations here, the allegations that of gang and bodies buried in the desert 10 years ago, I kind of would have been like. But with every leak of information from the Epstein files and we don't even have half of them released, it is evident to me that Congressman Stansberry is 100% right. They are super predators and it's unpleasant to think about. But we have to realize if they're going after little girls, of course there are these rich people that are asking for the services of Jeffrey Epstein Ghilaine Maxwell that might have a preference for boys. It also is very unpleasant to think about. But as you get into this world of sexual rape and abuse, of course there Is that, you know, physical abuse, the choking, the strangling, and those are the allegations at Zorro Ranch. This is a video of Epstein's Zorro Ranch Ranch. Let's pop this up. So as you can see, it is incredibly isolated. There is really no, there was no investigation into all of this. And we know from Jeffrey Epstein's island just how bizarre it was. The dental chair and then all of the testimony from the girls. This ranch sits high in the desert of central New Mexico. Encompassing over 7, 600 acres. The compound featured long private drive access with a gated entry, an enclosed residential compound and extensive on site infrastructure. Epstein built a private airstrip and airplane hangar that allowed completely discreet access to the residents. Victims could be flown directly onto the property with no public exposure whatsoever. Zoro Ranch was the only property not raided by authorities. And you have a sitting congresswoman doing 60 Minutes Australia because 60 Minutes United States has been captured by Barry Weiss, the absolute diabolical, evil fascist. So she wouldn't cover this. We have a congresswoman on record who has spoken to victims of gang rape at this ranch.
Co-host/Commentator
Pops, what's important to know about Zorro Ranch is a former employee in 2019 sent a letter to the FBI that said girls had been killed. And we've seen this email in the Epstein files. Two mid or Eastern European descent women were killed during violent rape fantasies in 2019. They received that when they went to investigate that New York said, no, stop, we got it, we're doing something. And then when Epstein died in custody in August, they started to resume the investigation and the Department of Justice intervened and said, no, we're not investigating. So that's where it stopped, is sitting there waiting for all this evidence to be obtained. And the thing is, when it got out that these allegations had been reported, the floodgates that we saw in Palm beach of women and little girls, or women then little girls who were raped and trafficked locally, that exploded. But there was no investigation. And that all happened in 2019. And I don't need to tell you who was president. I also want to remind everybody, Merrick Garland should have done a better job with this too. But it's just, it is one cover up after another that's been going on for decades.
Podcast Host
And Hector Balderas, the former New Mexico Attorney General who tried to investigate Zorro Ranch, shared more about how his investigation was shut down by the Feds. Let's play the clip.
Narrator/Reporter
The FBI knew but did nothing about the extraordinary allegation. Two young women had been killed and buried near the Zorro Ranch.
Hector Balderas
To see that they sat on so many tips and didn't involve us to strengthen their investigation is very concerning. When there's a tip about dead bodies, the feds completely did a disservice by not sharing that information with us. In light of the fact that we had an agreement and in light of the fact that we have communication indicating that we want to aggressively co prosecute and even in my first 2019 letter, I indicate that we are willing to co prosecute co conspirators.
Podcast Host
It's just stunning. It is absolutely stunning. In a total indictment on anybody who says they are a MAGA Christian, anybody who says they are a MAGA Christian, I want to say it over and over and over again until it resonates. MAGA and MAGA Christians are an anti family, anti child death cult, full stop. Their policies lead to that. Their actions lead to that. Pam Bondi and Pete Hegseth and Kristi Noem and all of these little Moses, Mike Grinder Johnson, they can get on the airwaves all they want to and Bible thump and Trump thump until the cows come home. At the end of the day, these are brazen, diabolical hypocrites that support child rape, cover up for child rape because MAGA is an anti family, pro pedophilia death cult. There's an Epstein survivor, Shantae Davies, who was abused at the ranch. And she shared shocking, shocking claims about what she witnessed. Let's play the clip.
Narrator/Reporter
But there were also other terrifying and bizarre accounts shared with her by other victims.
Interviewee/Survivor
Girls waking up in sort of like a dark room with like a female doctor standing over them, feeling like maybe there is some kind of procedure that had happened that they weren't aware of. And I believe this is in the files. Sure. There's something in there about a baby actually being born and then just, just disappearing like Ghislaine taking it.
Podcast Host
And these Republicans, these MAGA Christians are talking about pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell. Why? Because she knows that Trump and several members of his cabinet and all of these oligarchs that have bent the knee to Trump, that are the parasites that suck off the American taxpayer and find loopholes. They're all in the Epstein files. They're all in it. It is just horrific. And here is a New Mexico State lawmaker speaking out about how she's fighting for transparency. Let's play the clip.
Interviewee/Survivor
The news that came through the release of the files that there had been bodies buried at Zorro Ranch was all news to us. And that really sent a shockwave of concern through our communities that how has this never been resolved? How do we know whether or not this had ever been investigated or closed?
Narrator/Reporter
In response to discovery of the disturbing email, New Mexico State Representative Andrea Romero is spearheading a specially formed truth commission to investigate the startling allegations as well as why the FBI kept them secret back in 2019.
Interviewee/Survivor
And they never prosecuted anything in New Mexico. They never did an investigation at the time that he was in operations here. It's hard for me to see that any justice was done.
Podcast Host
And then survivors again, like Shanti Davis, aren't convinced at all that there will ever be any accountability. Because I want to say this again and again. All of these Republicans right now that have all of these grievances, they have the presidency, they have the House, they have the Senate, they have all of the governmental agencies, they have the Supreme Court, they have everything. They have everything and they're still not happy. And they are in the throes of covering up child rape and alleged murder and gang rape because MAGA Christians are lying liars. They weaponize their faith against everyday Americans to steal money to protect elite pedophiles. That's just the fact of the matter. So let's listen to Shantae Davis Davies.
Interviewee/Survivor
I really wish I could say yes, I would love to have faith and hope in anything at this point. But no, no, I don't. I mean, whoever it is that is covering up, whatever it is that they're covering up, has gone to great lengths to make sure it stays covered up. No, I don't think there will ever be a full disclosure of, of it all.
Narrator/Reporter
So that opportunity in your view, has been lost for yes.
Podcast Host
Okay. And it gets worse. It gets worse, you guys. The property has been bought by a Trump endorsed Republican running for statewide office in Texas. Let's pop this up. The family of Don Huffines, a former Republican Texas senator who is now campaigning to become the state's comptroller, bought the disgraced Jeffrey Epstein's Zoro Ranch in New Mexico. And after the child sex trafficker and molester died four years after Mr. Epstein's death, the Huffines family purchased property in New Mexico listed at public auctions whose proceeds benefited his victims. Prior to the auction listing, they had never visited the property. Huffing's campaign spokesperson Alan Blakemore said in a statement Friday they'd never visited it. In a Trump donor and supporter and endorse politician buys this. It's just crazy. And here's before I get pumps take on this, it's just I want to, to Emphasize this again. If you know a MAGA Christian, they are a hypocritical liar to their core. Pop this up. The owner of the late Jeffrey Epstein's New Mexico ranch emphasized in a Tuesday interview he bought the property to convert it into a Christian retreat. It's really a nothing burger, Don Huffines, a Texas businessman and politician, said in an event hosted by the Texas Tribune when asked why he bought the ranch. We decided to buy it and turn a place of darkness into a place of light. It's as simple as that, he told the Texas Tribune Editor in Chief Matthew Watkins in the interview, which was streamed online. And this is a textbook to textbook example of what I have deemed Christian signaling. He is saying, oh now this space is totally okay because I'm going to make it a Christian center. This isn't a man who is standing up for victims. This is not a man standing up for little boys and little girls that were gang and choked and buried, allegedly buried on the property. This is a man who is protecting pedophiles. Pumps just played a bunch of stuff there. Give me your takes on all of this. I know you follow this closely.
Co-host/Commentator
Well I. When I saw that he said he's going to turn it into a Christian retreat, I was like, well of course you are. That's exactly what you're going to do with it. There is a two lane road around this property that is the only way you can access it. So my thought would be so you're going to take little girls and women and they are going to be as helpless and not able to leave as the Epstein victims. That's what my thought was. That's my opinion. I just think a remote location like that. This truth committee informed by this US I'm sorry by this New Mexico state representative. They're supposed to give some findings by July 31st. I think that my first thought was oh, we're going to find the bodies, there's going to be murder charges. I doubt that that's going to happen because of the, you know, 7,500 acres and they've gone over the land. But they have to determine how deep. I mean I just, I feel like it's too vast to find that which is. Is disappointing. But I cannot stress enough how these women were so isolated. They were. They had nowhere to go on the island. They had nowhere to go. One of the most moving photos for me was a girl sitting on the beach. Like the her view. There was nowhere. There was no help, there was no way out. And the Shaun T. Davis later in the interview, she said that Jeffrey Epstein told her when he she found out he was doing the same thing to her sister, her little sister. She said, I'm leaving. And he said, I will ruin your life. She said, I was young, I thought, no, I'm going to right this wrong. And she said, in retrospect, I realize he was right. And that just tells me that's how these survivors feel. The government is pushing back. The elites are pushing back. It's been called the hoax. They have been demonized and they have been given throughout the course of this investigation zero support because these men are white and they are rich. And we as an American society are saying we value white men with money more than we value you and your innocence in your childhood. It's so disturbing and sickening. As a society we should all be repulsed. But instead Mike Johnson continues to cover it up.
Podcast Host
Yeah, and, and it's important to note that the weapon that they use to cover it up is Christian signaling. They think if they signal faith, then the cult people and it's. This is also another important thing. The most co opted cancer in our country are the non critically thinking MAGA Christian cultists. These are the people who four months ago said, I voted for Trump because he's a president for peace. He's no wars. No wars. These are the people who in before the campaign said, well, we're voting for Trump because he's going to get to the bottom of the Epstein files. And then his best friend Elon Musk when they get in a little fight and Elon's probably taken one too many hits. Academy loose lips sink ships. Trump will never release the Epstein files because Trump is in them, says Elon Musk. And so this, this aspect of American culture where white men are able to operate with impunity has always been ubiquitous in our country. But there has been progress. We elected a black president. Biden's administration had more diversity than any other administration prior and oftentimes in the very last march for equality and egalitarian principles there is a complete know like before the bubble burst, there's this complete power grab and we are all living in the middle of that and every single one of you. By engaging in this platform and other independent media platforms, you're helping build a community. And communities are kind of different now because of this digital space. But it is so important that we keep shining the light. Our numbers are bigger. The majority of us, unlike MAGA Christian Fox News viewing white folk, the majority of us oppose pedophilia.
Co-host/Commentator
Right.
Podcast Host
We don't want it covered up. MAGA the Fox News hosts, the mega churchgoers, the triple trumpers. They are okay with pedophilia and it's important to say it over and over and over again. Little Moses Mike Grinder Johnson who says God woke him up in the middle of night, said, wake up little buddy. Wake up guy, you're Moses. If we are to believe what he said to be true, then his God woke him up to march to the White House to cover up for child rapists. Because that's how little that Christian movement within the MAGA movement thinks of children and families. They are an absolute disgrace death cult and we have to fight them with everything. Fight fire with fire. The facts are on our side. Lame duck dementia duck toddler boy cooked Brain Pudding Boy 30 approval rating so keep the pressure on.

Episode: FBI Refused To Investigate Epstein's Ranch For Years? Report Exposes Massive Cover-Up
Hosts: Jennifer Welch & Angie “Pumps” Sullivan
Date: April 30, 2026
In this hard-hitting episode, Jennifer Welch and Angie “Pumps” Sullivan analyze the explosive revelations regarding Jeffrey Epstein’s infamous Zorro Ranch in New Mexico, focusing on claims that the FBI ignored egregious abuse allegations—including murder, gang rape, and disappearances—at the compound. The hosts examine new reports, victim testimonies, and ongoing attempts at governmental accountability, all while fiercely critiquing what they see as a “massive cover-up” by authorities and the role of MAGA-aligned politicians and Christian signaling in enabling such abuses.
New Mexico State Rep. Andrea Romero is leading a legislative truth commission, aiming for findings by July 31st, though both hosts are pessimistic about meaningful discoveries or justice due to the ranch’s vastness and continued stonewalling.
The hosts highlight the extreme isolation of survivors, the psychological operations against them, and a broader culture that consistently prioritizes white, wealthy men over vulnerable children and women.
The hosts use blunt, irreverent, and passionate language—mixing dark humor with outright condemnation. They are unflinching in calling out hypocrisy, directly blaming MAGA Christians and conservative elites for complicity, and expressing ongoing solidarity with survivors.
This episode sharply critiques political, legal, and religious institutions implicated in the Epstein cover-up, and ends by urging listeners to support independent journalism and continue demanding truth and accountability.
