Ghislaine Maxwell plays hardball with lawmakers on giving Epstein testimony.
Ghislaine Maxwell plays hardball with lawmakers on giving Epstein testimony.
She knows what happened to Epstein and doesn't trust TACO. When she gets the deal she wants, she will escape to France, which has no extradition for citizens, and write a tell all book.
This was part of the deal wirh Trump's attorney. So obvious.
Allowing felons and pedophiles to dictate how you proceed is unthinkable!! She is a criminal, treat her like one!!
After that she goes on her book tour.
A sex trafficker playing "hardball" with US Congress should make us all sick
We don't need her, but she's sure enjoying the spotlight for a minute. Quick question, how does one get a fast track to the SCOTUS? I've never seen anything like this before. These people think they are their personal panel. Oh.
Looks like Maxwell was Epstein's next of kin and inherited all the Kompromat.
Obviously, she’s got nothing to lose, Trump has everything to lose.
Let her rot.
Trump just admitted to putting a minor in danger. This past April, she committed suicide. Details below. bsky.app/profile/that...
in 1998, The GOP dragged then Prez. Clinton's "lobe Job" w/ M. Lewinsky for 7 yrs at cost of $40m. Now - w/ Epstein affair, they're consuming their own soup. Lewinsky on steroid.
Honey, just serve out your term.
hardball -- I guess that's not a stretch for a woman who enslaved young girls into the hands of child rapists
Seems more like it's all going to their plan which ends in a pardon for false testimony
If she hadn't been inclined to tell the truth and show compassion to the victims then with SCOTUS prejudices and the 5th I don't see any stunning revelations. Maybe an outside chance that if she feels she has been the lone scapegoat while abusers (like TACO) walk free then she coughs up the truth.
She was paid off long ago or she would have made a plea deal instead of taking the 20 years. In case you wonder she has to serve 85% of that 20. That's 17 1/2 years. Trump won't pardon but may commute sentence.
She s/b asking for marshal protective custody.
M
She's an abuser. Talk to the victims, not the perpetrator
I am sure some of the survivors would testify for free, although Dump will not like what they have to say.
Who needs this pedos testimony. Didn't this all happen already? Isn't that why she's in jail?
Fuck #maxwell
hosting their own pageant, then going home and watching themselves on TV, and bemoaning the fact that their not a bigger celebrity than the next 20 year old wunderkind out with his own tiktok
Dont bother. Lets all focus on the mid terms.
Not interested in her lies.
If you want testimony to procure actual facts, speak to the victims, not to the person who exploited them that is looking for a way out of the consequences she received for said exploitation!!
This regime does not want actual facts. They want to draw attention away from Trump and his buddies, who were all clients of Epstein and Maxwell, and sweep the whole thing under the rug. I agree, speak to the victims! Not the perpetrators ffs.
There is NO WAY she can be allowed to testify to Congress. The explanation of her new testimony to Todd Blanche would be torn to shreds. She would be asked to fill in details, not just make incriminating statements.
All the wrong people have an upper hand in this circus. She deserves nothing but to sleep in the same room as her toilet for the rest of her life.
No hardball! Hard time!
What a complete and utter joke….easy solution, release all the files
This clown Comer 🤡🤡🤡
So she is appealing the case and doesn’t want to spill the beans on what she did. Talking to Congress will interfere with her appeal.
let maxwell tell us what she knew abt the epstein file. biden n dems should have released the epstein file. now, dems r using it as a distraction bc dems have nothing to offer us but fear mongering n distraction. www.yahoo.com/news/article...
Immunity .... They need a sub-clause that says if she lies about ANY ONE LITTLE ASS THING her immunity gets revoked. But this is not really about the truth, is it ...
That's a lot to ask, for a convict.🤔 “Among her asks is to be granted immunity from further criminal proceedings; to receive committee investigators’ questions in advance of the interview; to delay the deposition until after her appeals; and to relocate the deposition outside the prison...”
Funny she can’t play hard ball with a subpoena, she has to do it. Granted she can plead the 5th but she just goes back to prison either way.
Just wait until they finally figure out that they let the wolf into the hen House a long time ago, & they no longer have any eggs to bargain with.
Why's like that??
Not sure how to answer that. Not sure what your Q is. Say more.
Absolutely positive the pedophile will pardon her
Sexual Predator / Child Rapist plays hardball with lawmakers on giving Epstein testimony. Congress Set To Protect One Of Their Own
Let her do her 20 years.... Let thE Trump victims speak up... Oh and.... RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES NOW
It is terrible that this convict thinks she has the power to deny Congress
Who cares about Maxwell! LET THE VICTIMS SPEAK!!
Let her rot in jail or Trumps bedroom
These aren’t lawmakers. They are greedy sycophant sheep with an agenda of only enriching themselves… The rest are onlookers, without NO way to stop them.
Pedophile pushes cultists to agree to her demands to ease spotlight on rapist pedophile leader Fixed it for you
Maybe she wanted to drag Trump down with her?? Lol
Except he wasn’t poaching employees. He was trafficking underage girls right out of mar a lago. Maybe Trump can explain why underage girls were working at his spa in the first place and why he was so upset that Epstein was “stealing them” from him.
Hardball? wtf? Let that evil animal rot in jail. It’s bad enough that women have to worry about men preying on them. There’s a covenant that exists amongst women- and when one of their own turns out to be a predator too- she should suffer the consequences at least as much as a man.
Of course she did. She's a horrible person, but why would anybody expect anything else?
She should they about to give her everything and including her freedom a bunch of guilty M.F’s out there.
Looking for future and past immunity for and from everything ever.
Maxwell’s lawyer and Blanche are friends. Friends outside of their work environment. That alone should tell us something.
Ok then rot in jail, BYEEEE. We know what happened even if people don’t accept it.
More like she told the truth and you're trying to figure out a way to "Epstein" her to keep your fat orange cash cow in office.
Holding out for that pardon from the mob boss.
Even hillbillies want to interview her.
It’s all in the files. Donny need her to lie for trump. The greater fear Is that they tamper with the files. If they do, hopefully there is someone who will speak out - maybe Maurene Comey?
She also demands a vibrating dildo and a 20 year supply of batteries.
She better be careful if she's gonna disappear
These attempts to shut down the Epstein-Trump scandal are clearly not well-thought-out. So, if Ghislaine exonerates Trump in exchange for a pardon, do they think everyone will say, "Well, that settles that"?
Child Sex trafficker Maxwell plays hardball with the President of PEDOPHILES, Donald Trump.
Correct title: "Last thing we need is a testimony from the pimp in favor of the pardoning rapist customer"
I don’t think she’s gonna give them anything anyway. She lied during her own trial, who’s to say she isn’t gonna lie to Congress. Congress shouldn’t cave on any of the requests that she has made. Blanche probably gave her attorneys the idea anyway
How do you report on this with a straight face?? It’s a show , a fix everyone knows it….
people in hell want ice water
Really wish all these politicians who want to know the truth would spend their efforts listening to the victims rather than the pedophiles.
Stupid headline - suggest rewrite "incarcerated lying pedophile twists herself into a pretzel to get out of prison" All of would journalists would not last a day in a European newspaper.
Im sure it has nothing to do with the two meetings with Trump's former personal atty. and now AG Blanche. How are you this bad @politico.com. My bad, you're actually pretty normal for most msm.
Absurd. The only appropriate response is absolutely not, gfy, we’ve invited a group of victims, whose only interest is having their truth be heard to testify instead.
Convicted sex trafficker Maxwell leverages Trump kompromat against lawmakers. Fixed it.
She should be in no position to do that.
One of many demands Ghislaine Maxwell purportedly told tRump’s DOJ was to require “DIZNEY”to create a movie casting her image as Princess Ghislaine. Production on “Princess Pedo’s Trumpy Island” may begin as soon as tRump pardons her. (mediaize.com)
Wait, what? A convicted sex felon is “playing hardball” with Congress? She thinks she is who, exactly?
She has enough dirt to take down the the Republicans, with evidence to prove it, and she is smarter.
Shitler’s alibi
Someone exercising her 5th amendment right against self-incrimination? The same amendment being denied to deportees by Trump. C'mon guys, we know this. Either everyone can exercise their constitutional rights or we don't have constitutional rights.
She’s actually asking for something special here - which may in fact indicate she’s willing to spill the beans on a lot of very unhappy people. But let’s not kid ourselves. She doesn’t make the rules.
As a public defender who has repped a number of snitches, I am fairly confident that she is not asking for anything special. This is a straight forward 5th amendment invocation. They want her to testify under oath about all the crimes she did with Jeffrey Epstein. That's as cut and dry you get.
Then what’s the “immunity” about? She could invoke the 5th whenever she wants.
Immunity is what you get in order to testify about crimes you've committed, but haven't been prosecuted for yet. Immunity removes your 5A right against self-incrimination because you can no longer incriminate yourself (thanks to the immunity). And therefore, you can no longer refuse the subpoena.
So if I understand it she’s not really “playing hardball”, she’s negotiating away her 5A rights. The question remains, what’s in it for her?
That's a good question. Why not just assert and refuse the subpoena? There's a type of immunity you can get that prevents you from ever being prosecuted for certain crimes. If she can get that, then that's the best reason. Maybe she wants to screw people who betrayed her. Maybe something else
Bullshit, the real Epstein Affair. 1. Allow committee chair to subpoena Maxwell. 2. Have DOJ deputy to go without assistants and or recordings and prep Maxwell on how to act and perform to get a pardon. 3. Have televised hearings only on fox.4. Gave Maxwell to say Trump not on list but Clinton is
Do they even need her testimony? Epstein ~ www.thepetitionsite.com/637/467/299/...
Those files are already buried with Ivana.
If they bring her in, they should also invite the victims!
bsky.app/profile/lms2...
She’s a monster.
F her. She needs epsteined
Why are they even bothering with her in the first place? She’s a convicted child abuser. She’s lied her face off several times. She has zero remorse. If they really want the truth, here’s an idea: >ask< her VICTIMS to testify before Congress. At this point, FOTUS is just trying to free her.
The GOV of 🇺🇸, should NOT be engaging. Period She is a criminal, liar, child molester & trafficker who was found guilty of heinous crimes against children. The ONLY ppl who should be given a voice are the VICTIMS This transplant as fuck cover up Trump & his loyalists have concocted, is disgraceful
But Todd Blanche had a lovely two days chatting with her out of … the goodness of her heart?
Immunity is not a pardon. She has already been convicted and given a lovely room rent free. Let her tell what she knows and send her back to the country club for the rest of her vacation. Not being able to tack on extra time could be worth the information. Then again, maybe not?

Her testimony is not worth it’s price
LMAO "hardball." She seems strangely unaware of who she is. She's not some random corner boy. With her buddy Jeffery in the forever box, she's goddamn Pablo Escobar. You don't make deals with big fish. You BURY them.
This is just a haggling game for a bargain. Does anybody in their right mind even think that with Maxwell wanting a pardon, and Trump wanting to be exonerated, this has even the slightest chance to get close to the truth?
Release all the files for the truth
F her. 1.) Subpoena the Epstein files from the Epstein estate. 2.) Invite former Epstein prosecutor Comey to answer questions before Congress. 3.) Invite Epstein and Maxwell’s victims to testify before Congress as well.
Two words: Katie Johnson youtu.be/gnib-OORRRo?...
We don’t need her. Release the files.
This js all a distraction. They don't really want to expose this.
The criminal sex offender wants a pardon.
I'm sure the trump pedo regime will find a way to blame Biden and release her from jail so she can continue her raping The pedo regime love that
All the losers in charge giving legal advice to another loser
Maxwell was a willing participant in the operation of island and engaged in the crimes. She has no reason to tell the truth and only has reasons to lie. No matter what her answers are they are questionable at best.
She most likely will retain copies of all blackmail material. It’s the only thing stopping her from exiting from a 13th storey window
"HARDBALL" does she (stomping her little toe in demand) ... lolololololol ... ya right, as if she has a a kernel of a right to stand on ...
She can rot in prison! Fuck her
We don’t need further testimony from a known liar who is working on a pardon. Actually, she filed something with SCOTUS yesterday. Anyway…we have victim testimony corroborated many times. Why don’t we believe the girls/women?
America doesn’t believe the girls/women because too many rich people witnessed the ‘Me Too’ movement and got scared. Now they’ve all jumped on the right-wing bandwagon wagon to undermine women’s rights. We watched it happen in Russia over the last decade, and a handful of other kleptocracies.
Let me help you with that ... "Convicted sex trafficker realises President is toast without her help".
What am I missing here? Isn’t this predator under the custody of the federal prison system?
Lolol shes like the only person in DC who knows how to negotiate
I’m so shocked! *Gasp…* you don’t say!
Why is she suddenly holding the cards!!! This is ridiculous.
Because Trump, who is mentioned a number of times in the Epstein files, is desperate to spin this!
He's desperate to dig himself out of the pizza basement he is now in - And it's not looking good👀👀👀
She's not wanted or needed. Just the Epstein files. No games with the monster, Maxwell. She raped children herself.
Make no mistake she is an evil person and will not be doing anything out of the kindness of her heart. Any deal made will be a "deal with the devil"
Why would it at all be neccesary to have a hearing to get needed information. What is wrong with the juridicial system? And why could it at all be possible to get punishment discount for speaking?
She lied at her own trial. Nothing she offers is credible. We have victims who received court-ordered damages and PLENTY of witnesses.
I have better things to do than reading this article.
Demand the House Oversight Committee call the victims to testify under oath instead of Maxwell, who seems to feel she is entitled to make demands!!
only if they let her. Shes hardly in a strong position
I’m sure Trump has made it clear if you testify before Congress your pardon is off. She will plead the fifth.
They want her to incriminate certain people in return for freedom.
Then let her rot in jail!
Dear lawmakers, Just say no.
The same woman who trafficked women for Epstein and his clients? Is playing hardball? Weird doesn't justify this. Gross, maybe. Gop are gross
Give her an extra scoop of ice cream for dessert one a week. That's it
Hardball with spineless wimps
Should've been yesterday . . . last week.
Not to worry, the country has Jim Bob Comer on the job. /s
I'm not surprised. She has her promise from Trumps team.
Shocking 🙄 she owns him. She could ask for the anything, she will get it and she knows it. She’s knows she’s dealing with a desperate tiny man and she has him by the balls. Dumpy and her both belong in prison.
The fucking press needs to make it clear... The only reason this woman is in the news and testifying is because Republicans are attempting to bury Donald Trump's pedophilia ties to Epstein.
In return for a pardon clemency, Maxwell will testify that it was all the Clintons’ and Obamas’ fault; they were behind everything. No one in the real world will believe her, but it will bring a key part of his believers back into the fold. For him at this point that will be enough.
For an administration accusing their opponents of pedophilia everyday during the campaign it’s quite sickening to watch this hypocritical regime even allow this weird private conversation with a top DOJ official and make statements about a possible pardon of this filth! Leave in jail, a participant.
Toss her back in the hoosegow.
Maxwell "declines" a subpoena to testify to Congress without conditions. Don't negotiate with a sexual predator. She's a felon in prison. Drag her in with chains in her prison jumpsuit. She can always plead the 5th. At least she will know Congress is serious and this isn't a PR stunt Victims matter
