Newshour - Ghislaine Maxwell denies seeing ‘inappropriate’ conduct by Trump

The US justice department has released transcripts of its recent interviews with Ghislaine Maxwell, the jailed associate of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. In them, Maxwell denied the existence of any "client list" kept by Epstein. She also said she'd never seen President Trump acting inappropriately.

Also in the programme: A day after a famine is declared in Gaza City - aid agencies in the Gaza Strip say they're afraid the hunger will spread; the folk singer who found she'd released a new album when she hadn't; and we'll hear the case for and against the sensitivity reader.

Consider This from NPR - High stakes diplomacy and canceled Halibut Olympia, insights from the Alaska Summit

Normally, foreign policy summits between world leaders involve painstaking planning and organization days and weeks in advance. The hectic and last minute nature of the meeting between President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska provided a window into how so much of what’s happening to try and end a brutal war in Ukraine, is being made up on the fly.

NPR’s Mary Louise Kelly, who has covered her share of high stakes diplomatic meetings between some of the world’s most powerful people, spoke with Scott Detrow about what was different this time.
