Announcing new benefits for Vox Members

Earlier this year, Vox launched our Membership program as a new way for you to directly support our journalism. Audience support is crucial to allowing our journalists to fulfill our mission of helping everyone understand our complicated world so that we can all help create a better one. During this unprecedented election season, the support of Vox Members has allowed us to break down policies, analyze rhetoric, and cut through the noise of misinformation so you can stay informed about the issues that really matter. 

Vox Members are part of a growing community and receive access to a number of benefits, including member-exclusive stories and newsletters, insider access to our newsroom, and a special monthly digital magazine.

Today, we’re excited to tell you about several exciting updates to the membership program. 

In the coming weeks, we are launching three new monthly columns just for Vox Members.

  1. Senior correspondent Eric Levitz’s new column will focus on the ideas that animate the American political left, and the policy disputes, ideological disagreements, and strategic debates that could define the Democratic Party’s future. The first edition will publish next week.
  2. Senior politics reporter Christian Paz will write each month on zoomers, boomers, and the changing politics of America. He’ll take a close look at the demographic shifts happening beneath our feet that are shaping the present — and explain how the tremors we’re feeling now could lead to the political earthquakes of the future. His first column will launch the week of October 7. 
  3. Each month, senior correspondents Rebecca Jennings and Alex Abad-Santos will bring you their group chat. It will provide a taste of the vital (and vitally frivolous) culture of the moment — the memes, TikToks, gossip, and internet ephemera that they can’t stop thinking about. Look out for the first edition this Friday.

In addition to these columns, we’ll be publishing a number of other new stories each month just for members, including stories from our special election package being published this week. Plus, members will continue to have access to other exclusive newsletters, like Constance Grady’s monthly Ask a Book Critic and the Vox Explainer newsletter that takes you behind the scenes in our newsroom, as well as other opportunities to learn more about how we make our journalism. 

We’ve also made it even easier for members to access their benefits by introducing member log-in to our site. If you’re already a member, thank you for your support — you’ll receive an email with instructions on how to create your account and access your new benefits.

In the months ahead, we plan to continue expanding the perks available to Vox Members as a reflection of their important role in making Vox’s vital journalism possible.

‘Massive cover up’ fears raised as House panel splits on clemency for Ghislaine Maxwell



Ghislaine Maxwell's condition to testify under oath — but only under the condition of clemency — has split House Oversight and Government Reform Committee members over whether President Donald Trump should grant her that pardon, Rep. James Comer (R-KY) told Politico on Wednesday.

Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's co-conspirator, was deposed by the committee and invoked her Fifth Amendment right to decline to answer the group's questions. Trump is the only one with the power to pardon her, something he has not yet ruled out.

Comer told Politico that he did not favor a pardon for Maxwell, a former confidant to the late financier and convicted child sex offender. When asked whether striking a deal with Maxwell could provide useful testimony, Comer did not share who on the panel supported granting her clemency.

"A lot of people do," Comer said.

"My committee’s split on that," Comer said. "I don’t speak for my committee."

"I think it looks bad," he added. "Honestly, other than Epstein, the worst person in this whole investigation is Maxwell."

Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) said that Democrats on the committee collectively oppose a pardon for Maxwell.

"That would be a huge step backwards, and, quite frankly, so disrespectful to the survivors," he said in an interview. "She is a known abuser. She is a known liar."

"If the DOJ or Oversight Republicans are out there trying to negotiate some sort of pardon that is... not only a huge slap in the face to this investigation, to anyone, to the American public," Garcia said. "It’s a part of a massive cover up."
