MYSTERY SOLVED! Melania Trump's Epstein Connections Finally EXPOSED
Redacted
0:00 Recently, First Lady Melania Trump held a press conference and she
0:03 said she had never had anything to do with Jeffrey Epstein.
0:06 It was a totally out of the blue moment.
0:09 And we don't know what it was about.
0:12 Specifically, she said she had never been friends with Epstein.
0:15 She said that she and the president were invited to the same parties
0:19 from time to time and that it
0:20 was just overlapping social circles, which is common.
0:24 Okay.
0:25 Well, investigative investigative journalist Derek
0:28 Brose says there's more to it.
0:29 He says there have been connections between Melania and her long-time
0:33 friend Amanda Ungaro who posted this just before the First Lady's announcement.
0:39 So, who is Amanda Ungaro?
0:42 Well, she was close friends with Melania before she
0:45 was deported with the help of her ex-husband Paolo Zampolli.
0:51 Now, incidentally, Zampolli was appointed by President Trump
0:55 recently as the special envoy for global partnerships.
1:00 Uh how does this all connect to Epstein?
1:03 Derek Brose joins us today to tell the story.
1:05 Thank you so much for joining us.
1:07 Hey, thank you for having me on again, Natalie.
1:09 I appreciate it.
1:10 Always a pleasure.
1:11 Uh so, let's walk through this Ungaro relationship because he
1:16 is still close to the Trumps and he does have
1:20 the power apparently to get his ex-wife deported and she
1:23 has been making waves in international press and not surprisingly,
1:27 the US press has been ignoring her.
1:29 So, can we just sort of start from the beginning at who she is,
1:33 the Brazilian model, and then her connections?
1:36 Absolutely.
1:36 So, she is, as you said, a former Brazilian model.
1:39 Um she was originally, you know,
1:41 the the Epstein connection starts from the beginning of her career.
1:44 She was 15 years old when she was first brought to the US on Epstein's plane
1:48 and her modeling agent at that time was
1:50 Jean-Luc Brunel of the M Squared M2 modeling agency.
1:54 For For who've been following the Epstein
1:56 saga and the Epstein network for years, you've probably heard that name.
1:59 He was sort of the French connection to this.
2:01 And as I point out in the article,
2:03 Jean-Luc Brunel has actually been under suspicion and you know,
2:06 had accusations of abusing young girls and models going back to 1988
2:11 when 60 Minutes actually put out a report called American Girls in Paris.
2:15 Of course, nothing ever came of it and he continued
2:17 on abusing people and continued to be a part of Epstein,
2:21 Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's network.
2:23 He was later on arrested shortly after Jeffrey Epstein and we are told he
2:26 also allegedly killed himself while waiting to go to trial in a French prison.
2:30 But it was him who brought Amanda Ungaro over to the US on Epstein's plane.
2:35 She says she, you know, saw Jeffrey Epstein,
2:37 saw a bunch of young girls around him, didn't really know who he was.
2:40 She doesn't claim to have any sort of interaction or that she was abused by him,
2:43 but it was through that connection that she
2:46 ended up meeting her future husband and now ex-husband,
2:49 Paolo Zampolli, who is an Italian businessman
2:51 who was also involved with the modeling world.
2:54 As the recent Epstein files and emails have shown us that Paolo Zampolli
2:59 actually was trying to buy a modeling
3:01 agency called Elite Management with Jeffrey Epstein.
3:04 And this was reported decades ago,
3:05 but now we have email confirmation of this showing them discussing this.
3:10 That never happened, but so Paolo Zampolli himself,
3:12 he's involved in the modeling world.
3:13 She's brought over.
3:14 She eventually goes back to Brazil as a young girl and you can even find,
3:18 I think it's a Vanity Fair article from the early
3:20 2000s where Paolo Zampolli references an unnamed young model,
3:24 Brazilian model who he was falling in love with.
3:27 And he said she was, you know,
3:28 only 17 at the time and he was sending her Easter gifts and flowers
3:32 and presents and he couldn't wait for her, you know, to be of age.
3:35 And nobody thought it was odd at the time,
3:36 I guess, but that ended up being her, you know,
3:39 they ended up getting married and they now have a child together.
3:43 And during that time, Paolo Zampolli and Amanda Ungaro,
3:47 as you showed a moment ago with some of the pictures,
3:49 there's dozens and dozens of pictures.
3:50 I don't think these are just random kind of they hung out at a party one time.
3:54 They seem to be very close and Amanda Angaro's words,
3:57 the uh the Secret Service would bring her son birthday gifts from Melania.
4:02 They would hang out.
4:03 Uh they would spend a lot of time together and uh Amanda Angaro,
4:06 as you mentioned there,
4:07 the day before this random press conference from Melania,
4:10 she started tweeting out and posting, not only tagging Pam Bondi and others,
4:15 but saying to Melania directly on some of her various Twitter accounts,
4:18 on the First Lady accounts, saying, you know,
4:21 that I know your secrets, you know, I'm going to expose you.
4:23 She's since deleted some of those tweets,
4:25 but there are still others that are up.
4:27 She does have a Twitter account.
4:28 She has only retweeted a few people.
4:31 You can go if you go to her account,
4:32 you can look at her replies and sort of see the different comments she's made.
4:35 But, she has started to speak up to international media.
4:38 She gave interviews to O Globo in Brazil,
4:41 to El País in Spain and then most recently,
4:44 she's done interviews for the network RAI,
4:47 which is the Italian sort of state media that has
4:50 been doing this ongoing series on Paolo Zampolli because,
4:53 of course, he's an Italian citizen.
4:55 The first episode of that was called The Epstein War.
4:57 The second one that came out last weekend uh was called
5:00 The Shark and there was another one that just came out this weekend,
5:03 but it was not specifically related to Amanda Angaro.
5:06 And it's in those interviews that Amanda is now saying
5:09 that she believes that there is a pact between Melania
5:13 and Paolo Zampolli uh specifically to basically look after each
5:18 other and and cover up each other's uh potential crimes.
5:21 And the the sort of underlying claim here is that Jeffrey
5:26 Epstein was the one who actually introduced Donald Trump to Melania Trump.
5:30 Now, of course, in that press conference, Melania has said this is false.
5:33 She's actually been suing different people.
5:35 She sued a book publisher in the UK.
5:37 She sued The Daily Mail back in 2016 because they
5:40 said that she was she used to be a high-priced escort.
5:43 Um this is when Trump was first running.
5:45 And she successfully sued them and got that article taken down.
5:48 But uh but uh Amanda is suggesting that there may be
5:51 some truth to this claim that Epstein introduced the two of them.
5:54 And actually in the Epstein files,
5:56 Epstein himself says this in one of the emails.
5:58 But the official story according to the Trumps is that was Paloz and Polley
6:02 at a party that introduced the two of them and that's what they're sticking by.
6:06 But it appears at least according to Amanda and there was also a recorded
6:10 a leaked phone call where Paloz
6:12 and Polley himself mentions some type of agreement.
6:15 He said he signed a confidentiality agreement and basically he would
6:18 never turn his back on the Trumps that you know they
6:21 helped reward him with jobs in the first administration and now
6:23 in the second administration for him speaking up and and defending Melania.
6:28 And he references a pact or an agreement.
6:31 And so we don't have the solid details the solid evidence yet,
6:34 but signs are definitely pointing in the direction that Melania or both maybe
6:39 Melania and Donald Trump made in some type of agreement with Paloz and Polley.
6:43 And again Amanda And Garos claiming it's related to the truth
6:47 about who introduced you know Melania to Donald Trump.
6:50 And Paloz in this leaked call seems to reference that as well.
6:54 And I just want to make one other quick note here.
6:55 You know for those who might be hearing this and say okay Derek,
6:57 what does this have to do with you know
6:59 the the price of food or the price of gas?
7:01 How's this going to affect my daily life?
7:03 This just sounds like a bunch of rich people gossip or celebrity gossip.
7:06 I understand that, but I think if you really
7:08 put this into the context of what we're discussing here,
7:10 if Jeffrey Epstein and his network which
7:12 we know is connected to intelligence most likely
7:15 Israeli intelligence and was all around the world
7:18 abusing people through fashion and through modeling.
7:21 If it was Jeffrey Epstein and that network who brought Melania
7:24 over or at least played a role in that and then introduced
7:27 the now current president of the United States to her and she
7:30 is now the first lady of the president of the United States.
7:33 That's a pretty high level for this network
7:36 to have infiltrated and I think that's that's
7:38 really the concern here is the implications of if
7:40 it's true that Epstein was the one who
7:43 introduced Melania to Donald Trump and if it's
7:45 true that Paolo Zampolli was indeed involved in some
7:48 sort of pact to cover that up
7:50 to defend the Trumps because after that press conference,
7:52 this is one more example, he said, "I'll testify in US in front of US Congress.
7:56 I'm willing to share my story." So,
7:58 he's been a loyal friend to them and repeating
8:01 the story over and over to make sure people know
8:03 I'm the one who did it and it is
8:05 potentially that they are just covering up for, you know, what really happened.
8:10 Well, don't you hate when people say I told you so?
8:12 Yeah, that's me actually because I I did tell you.
8:15 Sorry, but I told you that gold and silver
8:17 were going to reap the benefits of excessive money printing,
8:20 the Fed just printing money like crazy, overvalued markets, global unrest.
8:24 It's here.
8:25 It's happened.
8:25 Gold and silver have both soared to all-time highs.

9:31 Recently, Paolo Zampolli had his ex-wife deported.
9:36 So, that I guess you could wonder.
9:39 Here's the question, I'm not the assertion, but the question.
9:43 Did he try to take her and move her far away
9:46 from the United States where she can't say what she needs to say.
9:49 Obviously, the internet doesn't work that way, but it would be convenient.
9:53 Now, he said that, you know, all I did was I didn't do anything,
9:57 but the New York Times reported
9:58 that he did call Department of Homeland Security.
10:02 He says she's a liar because all Latin ladies are liars.
10:06 That's incredibly offensive to me as Latin, but okay.
10:11 What do you think was Can you explain
10:14 that bit a little bit better than I just did?
10:16 Yeah.
10:17 Sure.
10:17 So, as you mentioned the New York Times a couple months ago,
10:20 they reported that Paolo Zampolli, according to their sources within ICE,
10:24 had called some had called an official and said, "Hey,
10:28 this this case of this woman Amanda Anguaro is very important to the president,
10:33 very important to the White House." Now,
10:34 Amanda had already been previously arrested last year in 2025
10:38 with her, I believe it's her her new husband.
10:41 They were running a clinic in Miami and they were arrested
10:45 allegedly on fraud charges for doing cosmetic surgery without a license.
10:50 Now, those claims haven't been, you know, adjudicated in court,
10:53 but Amanda has stated on social media that those charges are
10:56 completely trumped up and that that was basically the doing of Paolo
11:00 using his connections to get them to come after her in order
11:03 for her to get arrested and then for him to say, "Hey, this lady's in in jail.
11:07 The president and the White House would really
11:09 love this case to be sped up and so,
11:11 it's potentially that she would have been deported
11:13 anyways based on those charges and those accusations.
11:16 They officially say she had an expired visa,
11:19 but it definitely appears that Paolo Zampolli at least expedited
11:22 the process and he does admit that he called ICE.
11:24 He just claims he didn't tell them to get rid of her.
11:26 He just said he was checking on the case because, you know,
11:29 the I think one of the worst parts of it is that they do have a son together,
11:32 a young son, his name is Giovanni,
11:33 and you can see it appears like in my perspective
11:36 Paolo and Polie is kind of using him as a prop.
11:38 He uses him a lot of his Twitter post and and showing him there.
11:42 And also I think it might be a way to sort of jab at Amanda
11:45 like hey I've got our son here
11:46 because obviously since Amanda was deported to Brazil,
11:49 she does not have custody of her son now.
11:51 Paolo is Paolo and Polie is flying around Italy
11:53 and other places and has their son with them.
11:56 So if this these other pieces of the puzzle are
11:59 true that there was a pact and that it somehow
12:01 relates to Epstein introducing Melania or something else that we
12:05 might not even be aware of at the moment then
12:08 yes it's convenient for him to get his ex-wife deported
12:11 and say see she's not a fit mother she's being
12:13 deported by ICE you know I need full custody
12:16 of my son and and I will also say that just
12:19 as of this morning I noticed there's another researcher
12:21 on Twitter his name is Anthony Andrews I I think he
12:23 also has a Substack he's been talking about this as well
12:26 and he actually just received a cease and desist
12:30 desist letter about four days ago from Paolo and Polie's
12:34 attorneys threatening him with you know further action legal
12:38 action if he doesn't take down all of his tweets
12:40 about Paolo and Polie and and issue a public apology.
12:44 Now I haven't received anything like this yet but it just shows
12:46 you a sign that he's he's definitely very aware of the chatter
12:49 that's going on and and I don't think he has any
12:52 legal grounds people have freedom of speech to say what they want.
12:54 I don't think Anthony Andrews doesn't seem to be just making things up.
12:57 He's reporting and asking the same questions that I am here which I think are
13:01 based on evidence you know if if
13:03 Amanda is giving interviews to the Italian media
13:06 saying she believes based on her experience as a friend of Melania knowing both
13:11 the Trumps and this being her ex-husband
13:13 that there was a pact that there was agreement.
13:15 She specifically said something to the effect that you know
13:17 after the Trumps came into office then Paolo and Polie got
13:22 a boost and you know they started getting all this love
13:25 from them but now Melania is essentially turning her back on her.
13:28 That's how she's framing it.
13:29 And then I I again I will mention
13:30 that the second report from Italian media includes a leaked
13:33 audio of a phone call that Paolo Zampolli is
13:36 having with another friend where he's specifically discussing this.
13:40 And he's talking about some arrangement.
13:42 Uh if I can, let me just quote him real quick so I don't want to misquote him.
13:45 He says, "I wrote the document for the president and for the first lady.
13:48 They used it for the speech." This is in reference
13:50 to the Daily Mail uh lawsuit back in 2017.
13:53 "With the Daily Mail, we just won an enormous case an enormous case.
13:56 I can't talk about it because I have a confidentiality
13:59 agreement and I still have to cash the check.
14:01 We won last week.
14:02 I am in this country thanks to President Trump.
14:04 He gave me a job.
14:05 I started in real estate, built myself a nice house.
14:07 I would never betray a friend." So, you know, take that how you will.
14:11 We'll see if uh Amanda speaks um further.
14:14 I have heard some whispers in the wind that she is potentially
14:18 going to be is is it is trying to speak to some
14:20 US politicians to see if she can be brought in front
14:23 of the US Congress for uh a hearing in front of a committee.
14:26 We'll see if that pans out, but um that's where it's at right now.
14:29 And I think that this again uh we can't prove for certain,
14:31 but I think this might be a piece of the puzzle when all of us were wondering,
14:35 "Why did Melania just give this random press conference?" She was
14:37 kind of in the shadows and nobody was really talking about her.
14:40 If anything, she brought more attention to this.
14:42 And the the mainstream media reports that Trump didn't
14:45 even know she was going to give that press conference.
14:46 Who knows how much of that is true, but either way,
14:49 the situation with Amanda Anguiano may be part
14:52 of the reason why she chose to speak up right now.
14:54 Right.
14:56 I mean, it just makes me feel like what you resist persists.
15:01 Um you talked about how in 1996 when Melania
15:04 was brought over as a model on a contract, she was sponsored by Paolo Zampolli.
15:12 And she was awarded the so-called Epstein visa.
15:16 Can you please explain that?
15:18 It's actually the Einstein Einstein visa.
15:20 Einstein visa.
15:21 Sorry, I read it wrong.
15:22 Maybe maybe it should be renamed.
15:23 [laughter] Exactly.
15:25 but so that Einstein Visa is as it the name implies supposed
15:29 to be for really brilliant people not only academically but I did look
15:33 further into it and it says people who are excelling in their fields
15:37 and it doesn't mention anything about excelling in the field of modeling.
15:40 I mean not to say that couldn't qualify but it seems very
15:43 odd for people that this specific Visa which is supposed to be
15:46 for people who are the you know brightest and brilliant minds
15:49 in the academic world and science and even in sports and things like that.
15:54 So I guess you could kind of stretch it and say well
15:56 she was this elite model and so she qualified under the Einstein Visa.
15:59 But there have been questions for years about
16:01 how that happened and who pulled what strings.
16:04 But yes, Paolo Zampolli was her original sponsor
16:07 to help her get into the United States
16:09 and so and again what I'm about to say is is complete speculation at the moment.
16:13 There are definitely other people on the internet who will claim this is true.
16:16 I don't think we can prove it.
16:17 But there has long been suspicion that Melania was one
16:22 of potentially Epstein's victims brought over and as a model
16:26 and and and eventually you know introduced to Donald
16:29 Trump and and now in the White House.
16:30 Now again that may be where some of this this rabbit hole leads eventually
16:35 but at the moment we have Epstein himself
16:37 saying that he's the one who introduced them.
16:40 We have this discussion of a pact between
16:43 Melania and Paolo Zampolli both in his you
16:45 know he's talking about a confidentiality agreement
16:48 and his ex-wife saying that she believed there was
16:49 a pact based on everything she saw and there's
16:52 also another confidential source that was in the FBI
16:55 and the FBI document dumps recently that also
16:58 mentions Melania being introduced to Trump by Epstein.
17:02 So at this moment it's he said she said but I think that you know
17:06 the questions are not answered and and hopefully
17:08 Amanda will be willing to speak up soon.
17:10 I will also note as I do in my article she has been hinting that she
17:14 has a book coming up soon and so some of her detractors or critics are saying,
17:17 "Oh, she's just, you know,
17:18 trying to drag this out for book sales or something." I don't know.
17:21 I I don't claim to know, but she seems to be um preparing to to speak up more.
17:26 She posted recently uh a picture of herself at the gym said,
17:29 "The comeback begins now." So, who knows what she's preparing for?
17:32 Like I said, there's been whispers
17:33 of her potentially getting in front of US Congress.
17:36 I don't know what that would entail since she was deported
17:38 by ICE if they can legally bring her back now or or what
17:41 that exactly would look or if it would just be
17:42 a remote interview um as some of the media has been doing,
17:45 but I plan to stay on this and and the article
17:48 that we're covering today people can
17:49 find it at the last American Vagabond.com and I
17:51 plan to follow if there are any more updates.
17:54 Right.
17:54 Here's a screenshot of it.
17:56 Uh it's called the Zamboni Melania Pact,
17:59 Amanda Ungaro Epstein Connections and the Leaked Phone Call.
18:02 Uh thank you so much for bringing this to us.
18:05 It's uh it's tricky, but there are smoking guns here that we are owed answers.
