Democratic representative says Epstein associate’s decision to invoke fifth amendment points to ‘White House cover-up’
Ghislaine Maxwell refused to answer questions during a closed-door congressional deposition on Monday, prompting criticism from a House representative backing efforts to release Jeffrey Epstein investigative files.
Robert Garcia, ranking member of the committee on oversight and government reform, said in a statement that Maxwell invoked the fifth amendment and refused to testify during her scheduled deposition. Maxwell’s attorney, David Oscar Markus, also said that she invoked her fifth amendment right.
“After months of defying our subpoena, Ghislaine Maxwell finally appeared before the oversight committee and said nothing,” said Garcia, a California Democrat. “She answered no questions and provided no information about the men who raped and trafficked women and girls.
“Who is she protecting? And we need to know why she’s been given special treatment at a low security prison by the Trump administration. We are going to end this White House cover-up.”
“Who is she protecting?"
Once alternate proof of trump’s degeneracy shows up in the files her life will become essentially worthless. She should curry favour to the other side while she has the opportunity.
Trump. She’s protecting Trump. Also herself, since suicide might become contagious if she talks. How is this even a question?
To be fair I dont wanna end up dead in my cell or prolong my sentence either if I was her
“Who is she protecting? And how many times will that orange painted geriatric imbecile have shit themselves today? It’s a mystery I tell ya.”
Who is she protecting?
D 👏O👏N👏A👏L👏D👏
T👏R👏U👏M👏P
That’s who she’s thanking. There’s a longer, darker list of people she’s protecting
Why make a list when you can just shoot pics of them?
Ikr? Like how is this even a question.
Fucking infuriating.
Let’s not forget about his entourage…
No shit…
Why did people think trump moved her to a fucking country club?
They should have held her in contempt and thrown her back in real jail. But she obviously got bribed/threatened and cooperated. The day she got moved to the country club anyone with a half a brain knew she wasn’t gonna snitch.
She will say Trump wasn’t there in exchange for a pardon.
She should not ever get out. Why she is not serving 99+ life sentences is beyond me. With how much violence she brought to children she deserves much more that a minimum security prison.
The states she sodomized children in should all press new charges so she can go to state prison once her Federal sentence is done.
She is protecting her benefactors. ALMOST surprised she hasn’t been fully pardoned yet. I would look for that in the last few days of second term if he lives that long.
If she gets pardoned, she loses 5th ammendment protections, as I understand it (because the pardon means anything said can’t incriminate her). So it opens a can of worms that she might rather keep closed because then she could be kept in real prison for contempt for refusing to speak (which she will regardless of the legal consequences because those aren’t the ones she fears the most).
I would argue she’s protecting herself, given that her closest associate ended up with a Hyoid bone fracture in police custody after unaliving himself. It’s not like they can put her in double-jail with contempt of court charges. Why would she say anything at all?
Also a good point. But could still see that pardon coming on as a thank you
Trump’s not going to remove her leash until he’s on his way out of office.
That or that’s when she kills herself.
Trump doesn’t do that
Trump doesn’t say thank you, he just releases dangerous people from prison who did him favors.
Only if he has something to gain from it.
If he gets nothing out of the deal, he has no reason to grant clemency.
Cuellar?
Who is she protecting?
Trump, herself, most of the current administration, 1/3 of the Supreme Court, FOX News anchors… The list goes on and on.
She claims she has dirt to swap for freedom, but nothing on Trump or Clinton. I don’t know about Clinton, but Epstein talked about Trump being evil on numerous occasions. It’s clear that he was up to SOMETHING, so if she claims there’s nothing, shes lying.
She’s one of the most notorious and prolific child sex traffickers in human history, she gets NO mercy. Toss her in a dungeon.
Fuck that. Tie her to the bumper of a truck and drive down 300 miles of road paved with barbwire and broken glass, thats lined with lemon juice sprinklers.
She’s protecting herself. Duh.
By not talking she’s far less likely to run afoul of somebody with the means to suicide her via two gunshots to the back of the head.
Yeah. She’s worried she might commit suicide by accident if she talks too much.
Daughter of the most famous Israeli spy ever.
I mean someone already can. His name is Donald Trump.
She must have a dead man’s switch somewhere.
“The police said her death was an accident. She had fallen down an elevator shaft… onto some bullets.”
She’s trying to not get murdered in her cell…
Calling it now:
Once she lies endlessly about how Trump and his cronies are all innocent and how all of Epstein and her clients were Dems, Trump won’t pardon her.
He’ll kill her like he killed Epstein. Keeping her alive is too great of a risk. She’s playing into his hand like a fiddle, unless she’s planning on going out in a blaze of glory and exposing Trump in the end.
I disagree. Anyone this high up in shit has a dead man’s switch. Killing her is a fools errand.
I hope she does have a dead man’s switch. And maybe that’s why she hasn’t been killed yet.
Although, we know Trump is a fucking idiot with dementia who acts long before he does anything that might be qualified as thinking. We’ll just have to see. We’d be foolish, and Trump would me more foolish to not assume she is still in charge of this whole thing.
He’ll kill her like he killed Epstein.
I figured she wasn’t “dead” yet because they didn’t have a body double lined up for her. Once they do, she’ll be “dead” while living in luxury in Tel Aviv.
Why would they bother keeping her alive with some elaborate scheme? How does that benefit them?
Thing is before all these file releases I’d have expressed doubt in the “he’s still alive conspiracy”.
Now though, I increasingly find myself doubting he’s dead instead by the day.
At this point I feel like everyone with a few brain cells can put together that either he was killed by someone, or at a minimum given the chance to do it himself. Lots pointing to that he was murdered by a third party, but that very easily could have been a talk about how he’s in the best spot he’ll be, hasn’t testified for or against anyone, innocent until proven guilty. Given whatever drugs he wants or didn’t. He knew this was the possibility since the 80s so they just gave him the chance and he did do it.
I think most people with experience/knowledge in the intelligence industry know there is so much more to this. MSM says he was working with Russia. The last files prove he was working with Isreal. He’s american and operated primarily in the US. Consulted in Africa and Asia. He was everywhere and any can go anywhere. Other than Islamic countries, Epstein has connections to be securely anywhere. Bum ass CIA agents that get $150k a year get facial reconstruction, new identities that check out in any database, live in adversary countries for decades. And people think making Epstein disappear is insane.
