LOS ANGELES (OC).–Upending the Democrat and the fake news narrative that President Donald Trump, President Bill Clinton and other high-profile celebrities and politicians visited deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein illicit island in Little St. Thomas, 63-year-old Gislaine Maxwell dismissed all the fake stories. “President Clinton was my friend, not Epstein’s friend,” Maxwell told Deputy Atty. Gen Todd Blanche. “President Clinton liked me, and we got along terribly well. But I never say that warmth with Mr. Epstein,” Maxwell testified. Maxwell was convicted Dec. 29, 2021and sentenced June 28, 2024 to 20 years in federal prison. Government prosecutors claimed that Maxwell ran a ring for Epstein, recruiting and feeding his insatiable fetish for underage minors. Maxwell denied all the charges, claiming prosecutors went after her because Epstein was dead.
Under intense Democrat and fake news scrutiny, U.S. Atty. Gen. Pam Bondi said she wanted to know if Maxwell had any information that could shed some light on the wild media speculation about Trump, Clinton and other celebrities and elected officials. Blanche said he wanted to determine if Maxwell had any “information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims,” posted a statement by the Department of Justice. Maxwell said she never witnessed any wrongdoing by Clinton—or any other any other high-profile celebrity or President Donald Trump. Flight logs on Epstein’s private jet showed Clinton traveling on Epstein’s jet in 2003 on Epsteins’s Boeing 727 to Rwanda, Russia and China. Maxwell said she was on many of the flights as a member of the Clinton’s Global Initiative, a fund raising group to reportedly raise money for NGOs and nonprofits in the Third World.
Maxwell claims she visited Clinton’s home as a friend in Chappaqua, New York. Democrats and the fake news have done everything possible to hype the Epstein story, implying that the DOJ is hiding the real truth about who visited Epstein’s island where key witnesses as Maxwell’s trial claim they were exploited as teenage sex objects. Maxwell went to great lengths to tell Blanche she was a friend of the Clintons who traveled with on Epstein’s jet for the Clinton Global Initiative. Maxwell said she told Epstein to help ferry the Clintons to various global locations purely for business purposes. “I saw them talk, I say saw them sit down and have chats,” Maxwell said. “I didn’t see President Clinton being interested in Epstein. He was just a rich guy with the plane.” Campaigning in 2015, Trump insinuated that Clinton had flown with Epstein and may have gone to his island.
Democrats and the fake news seek to implicate Trump in participating in Epstein’s sex abuse follies. “I never went to the island,” Trump said, dispelling the fake news implying that the sealed DOJ records were protecting him from public exposure. “I never went to the island,” Trump said last month. “I never had the privilege of going to his island, and I did turn it down, but a lot of people in Palm Beach were invited to his island. In one of my very moments, I turned it down. I didn’t want to go to his island,” Trump said, contrary to the Democrat narrative that implies that Trump was a pedophile just like Epstein. Clinton said in 2019 that he “knows nothing” about Epstein’s crimes and had never visited Little St. James. Clinton said he hadn’t spoken with Epstein in “well over a decade,” saying he only traveled on Epstein’s to promote the Cinton Global Initiative.
Maxwell insisted that Clinton had no personal relationship with Epstein and would not have traveled on a pleasure trip. “He never, absolutely never went. And I can be sure of that because there’s no way he would have gone. I don’t believe there’s any way that he would’ve gone to the island had I not been there. Because I don’t believe he had an independent friendship, if you will, with Epstein,” Maxwell told Blanche. Everything with Democrats and the fake news is about crediting conspiracy theories. If they could only get their hand the grand jury transcripts, only then it would come out the list of everyone Epstein entertained on his island. Convicted of multiple felonies involving sex trafficking and serving a 20-year sentence in federal prison, Maxwell has very little credibility, especially with Democrats and the fake news. She sounded logical when she talked to Blanche.
Whatever time Maxwell spent with Epstein and the Clinton on the Clinton Global initiative sounds like she sincerely admired what the former president was trying to do. “And I thought it was an honor and a privilege to be part of something so amazing and to have an opportunity to spend time with a man that I found truly extraordinary,” Maxwell said of Clinton. Whether that’s all true of not, it doesn’t rule out that Maxwell diverted young girls for Epstein’s escapades. In Epstein’s 2007 plead deal with the Justice Department, Epstein claimed it was an honor to help ferry the Clintons around on their Global Initiative. Mexwell also tried to shore up her credibility with her time spent with Epstein backing the Clinton Global Initiate. Maxwell hopes that Trump would pardon or commute her sentence because she was railroaded at her trial because of Epstein.
