Rick Wilson on NEW Evidence GHISLAINE BLACKMAILED TRUMP - Fast Politics w/ Molly Jong-Fast
Rick Wilson joins Molly for a wide-ranging conversation that begins with new reporting and renewed controversy around the Epstein files, including allegations about attempted DOJ redactions, the risks of sensitive discovery material in Ghislaine Maxwell’s possession, and the broader pattern of powerful figures seeking to bury damaging information while victims’ stories are too often sidelined.
They then pivot to Trump’s attacks on the Supreme Court and the chaotic use of tariffs, framing them as tools of personal power and profiteering rather than coherent policy. The discussion closes with a blunt strategic critique of Democratic politics: Wilson argues that talent and electability should outweigh ideological “purity tests,” condemns advocacy questionnaires as opposition research gifts, and urges party leaders to recruit candidates who can actually communicate, compete, and win in today’s media-driven campaigns. - 02/22/2026.
