Ghislaine Maxwell reportedly informed Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche that President Donald Trump never acted inappropriately towards her. During a nine-hour-long interview, Maxwell stated Trump’s actions were never concerning, as per sources familiar with the discussions.

 

The Trump administration is contemplating making these interview transcripts public. Multiple insiders informed us that the decision could be made this week. The interview took place over two days, and there is an audio recording of the sessions, though it remains uncertain if the transcriptions will also be released.

 

Maxwell, a key associate of the late Jeffrey Epstein, was convicted on charges related to sex trafficking and received a 20-year sentence in 2022. She recently moved to a less restrictive federal prison in Texas and is appealing her conviction at the U.S. Supreme Court. Sources suggest that Maxwell initiated the interview with the DOJ.

 

Reports indicate that she is also pursuing a pardon from Trump. David Markus, Maxwell's lawyer, publicly stated that she "would welcome any relief" and did not withhold any information when questioned about her connections.

 

Responding to queries, Trump stated that he was not aware of Maxwell's prison transfer until he read about it. He assured that the conversations between Blanche and Maxwell were "completely ethical" and upheld transparency. Trump’s comments about potentially releasing the transcripts suggest he desires openness, although he expressed concerns regarding possible unintended harm, as reported by ABC News.

 

Blanche tweeted after meeting Maxwell, stating that the DOJ would provide further insights “at the appropriate time.” CNN originally reported the possible release of these discussions.

 

Maxwell's interactions with the DOJ, along with her appeal process, keep her in the public eye. While Trump has not ruled out the possibility of pardoning Maxwell, details of the interview are still kept confidential for now. While decisions about public disclosure remain pending, the situation continues to unfold.

Quell surprise 😲 did anyone think for a moment a prisoner at the mercy of trump who holds the key to get herself freedom would say otherwise lmao 😂 I think most folks know better.

It's a toss-up to say who's a bigger liar, her or 47.

In fairness, when she was around him, his umh, interests and enthusiasms, were probably directed elsewhere!

Nothing burger. She's a convicted perjurer... Whatever lies she needs to tell for her get out of jail free card. 

I will still suggest as per Todd Blanche's comment that Maxwell "answered all the questions" that Blanche's questions -- as per the former prosecutor he is -- were possibly phrased to require only yes/no answers from Maxwell.

What happened to "The walls are closing in"  Now, that was a favorite for a long time. 

 

I haven't followed all this Epstein stuff besides reading headlines. But, if Trump did what AN posters think he did then where are the victims? You don't think the supposed victims will be looking for a payday?

There are 2 active legal cases right now:

 

- Trump sues Murdoch. WSJ, et al over the Epstein birthday card

 

- Maxwell's filing with the Supreme Court to accept her case on the 2007 NPA

 

All the rest is soap opera.

The Jeffrey Epstein Victims' Fund was established to compensate individuals who were sexually abused by Jeffrey Epstein. The fund, which was created from Epstein's estate, paid out over $121 million to more than 135 people. The administrator of the fund, Jordana Feldman, aimed to provide a confidential and non-adversarial process for victims to come forward and receive compensation. 

The Cover-up Begins

Funny article 😊 I don't think anyone was concerned as to whether he acted inappropriately towards HER.

 

That's surprising............not.

 

Release a staged interview that doesn't ask the important questions, but the containers of evidence will remain buried.

 

Fire up the presidential pardon autopen.

 

Quid, meet quo.

I think "the speculation", "accusations" and "the syndrome" continues is more accurate.

Per the ABC News quote above:

 

"... telling Blanche that Trump had never done anything in her presence that would have caused concern,"

 

I would think that is referring to a third person.

Good to hear it clarified once and for all.

 

I always knew Trump wasn't involved. 

 

Did anyone really think that she would turn on the one person who could, and probably will, pardon her?
Remember, in Trump's world, 'truth' is simply not an issue.

What was clarified, if that, is that Ms. Maxwell herself did not observe any improper behavior with any third person(s) while in Mr. Trump's presence.

 

It does not refer to any improper behavior by Mr. Trump that might have occurred while not in Ms. Maxell's presence.

47 hands-down, ongoing, daily. constantly as for Maxwell, it's simply survival - seeing as how her buddy ended up.

Comedy hour at it's best. 

This does not surprise me at all. I assume Trump is guilty of pedophilia, but even if he isn't, that is not my main objection to him. My main objection is what he is doing to my home country, the USA. Of course, I have to acknowledge that he is supported by a plurality (not a majority) of my fellow citizens. This is the fact that is most disappointing to me. I assume they either have been duped by him or, worse yet, share his values. Either way, their support continues to erode my confidence in the USA. 😟

All of which can be resolved by trump ordering that the entire file be released with victim names redacted.

 

Gee now why would he not want to release all this information if it will totally exonarate him ending all the speculation accusations and "syndrome".  Trump would love nothing more than to "prove" nothing to see here so he could crow about a witch hunt some more.  I suppose he has to ask bondi permisssion to release them to show the world he is being picked on.  Yeah right. 

 

So meantime lets move maxwell to a country club prison that required a special exception and call it a total coincidence that she is first convicted sex offender ever to be given that special favor.  Why maybe she will be so happy for this favor that she will feel it might be in her best interest to cooperate with the person who granted the favor.  Maybe she will  get an even bigger favor and be set completley free.

 

Lot of cult members sure seem to enjoy being lied to  and called stupid by dear leader.

Of course not. She was way too old for Trump. Proves nothing but will likely get her a pardon.

Of course not "in her presence."!

He took his victims into a private room.

 

Parse the statements like they came from a Clinton.

While you're at it, parse the questions like they came from Clinton's lawyer.

You and I hardly ever agree on political issues, but you raise a fair point here. The thumbs down are unwarranted and I believe merely unthinking trolls getting their kicks.

There is a difference though, she has every reason to lie as she is dependent on Trump for a pardon while lying is Trumps default mode.

Seems to me both attorneys Blanche and Markus have chosen their words very carefully.

totally agree...IMHO once she is pardoned, all doubt should be removed that she would ever say anything negative about what el presidente may have done while visiting the island or on the Epstein plane.   That in my mind would indicate that he is guilty and that he has been assured that nothing would ever be mentioned by her.  As for the victims, they have courageously come out against some big names and we all know that the rich and powerful do many things that regular citizens would go to prison for doing the same thing.  A sad but real situation and has been happening forever IMHO.

So, this fund also included Trump? Is that what you're saying?

 

I'm asking where are trump's victims?

Now she has said he was not involved there are two options for dealing with her - release her or "make her go away".
