MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on how Donald Trump’s latest rant may have provided Ghislaine with a golden ticket to get a retrial in her criminal conviction as Trump seeks to further cover up his dark past.
Here’s the latest—though not an outright “bombshell”—on Ghislaine Maxwell and her connection to Donald Trump & the Epstein saga:
🔹 DOJ Rejects Maxwell’s Immunity Claim
- Ghislaine Maxwell’s legal team is pushing the Supreme Court to overturn her conviction, arguing she was shielded by Epstein’s 2007 non‑prosecution agreement.
- The DOJ strongly disagrees, stating the deal applied only to Florida prosecutors and not federal cases elsewhere—like New York, where she was tried TMZ+14Business Insider+14New York Post+14.
🔹 Maxwell Seeks a Pardon
- Author Michael Wolff reports that Trump’s circle considered pardoning Maxwell, fearing she might “spill secrets” about his ties to Epstein YouTube+2Hindustan Times+2The Daily Beast+2.
- Ultimately, the idea was abandoned, likely due to fears of public outrage .
🔹 DOJ Closes Epstein Investigation
- The Department of Justice has made clear there is no secret Epstein “client list”, no evidence of blackmail, and Epstein’s death was indeed a suicide—a conclusion that angered MAGA voices, though Trump has defended AG Pam Bondi and downplayed ongoing interest Hindustan Times+10theguardian.com+10The New Republic+10.
🔹 Why Maxwell’s Move Matters
- If Maxwell were released or granted immunity, she could publicly share inside details—potentially touching on Trump or other elites.
- That seems to be the concern that sparked pardon talks in Trump’s camp—and the reason his advisors reportedly nixed it.
✅ Bottom Line
- Maxwell is not currently cooperating with prosecutors.
- The DOJ has formally rejected her immunity defense.
- Trump’s team once seriously considered a pardon, but ultimately decided against it amid likely backlash.
- The broader DOJ confirmation of no “client list” has deflated many conspiracy theories—though it has riled up Trump’s base.
