BREAKING: Trump Sends In His Fixer to Silence Maxwell Before the Truth Gets Out

Trump isn’t just trying to silence Ghislaine Maxwell—he’s trying to bury the truth, protect the elites, and erase the voices of the victims. This is the cover-up of the century.

Excerpt...

I want to take you back and remind you: Todd Blanche was originally Paul Manafort’s attorney. Later, he was supposed to be on my legal team. But when I made the decision to stop protecting Trump’s criminal operation and started telling the truth, Blanche quickly became my adversary. He stayed on to represent my co-defendant, Igor Fruman, and worked against me at every turn.

At that time, I was fighting to reveal the truth about Trump’s shadow diplomacy in Ukraine. But instead of standing for justice, Todd Blanche did everything in his power to keep that truth buried. He made contradictory statements to the press. He tried to seal documents I was preparing for Congress. He tried to silence me.

And now? Blanche is back. This time, his job is to do the same thing to Ghislaine Maxwell.

Let’s not pretend this is about justice. Let’s not pretend this is a neutral fact-finding mission.

Trump is sending in his most loyal fixer—Todd Blanche—to a prison cell to “negotiate” with Maxwell before she can speak freely. The goal is not to seek the truth. The goal is to contain it.

Here’s the timeline:

Maxwell delayed her appeal to the Supreme Court until after Trump was inaugurated. Trump’s DOJ delayed their response until Monday, and that same day, Maxwell’s attorney, David Markus, released a public statement insinuating that Trump was reneging on a prior deal.

Then the Wall Street Journal dropped a story exposing a handwritten letter Donald Trump sent to Jeffrey Epstein on his 50th birthday—once again tying him directly to Epstein in a way Trump’s team has desperately tried to deny.

The next day, Wednesday, Pam Bondi fired prosecutor Maurene Comey—one of the only people qualified to evaluate any cooperation Maxwell might offer.

Friday, Todd Blanche filed a motion—under the guise of transparency—to unseal select grand jury transcripts. But this was a smokescreen. These are transcripts DOJ already vetted and redacted to protect Trump.

Meanwhile, Trump’s DNI, Tulsi Gabbard, pushed out a bogus national security story to distract the base. And yesterday, Speaker Johnson gave up the House majority for a full week to give Trump cover.

And now—today—Todd Blanche announces he’s going in to talk to Maxwell.


Blanche claims this is the first time anyone from the DOJ has reached out to her. But don’t be fooled. This is not about investigating Epstein. It’s not about justice for the victims. It’s about controlling the narrative before it controls them.
