Ghislaine Maxwell Demands Immunity for Testifying to Congress

Ghislaine Maxwell—the convicted sex trafficker and former close confidante of Jeffrey Epstein—now wants to play gatekeeper to the truth. After years of silence, she’s suddenly willing to testify before Congress, but only if her “demands” are met. Let’s be clear: this isn’t justice. It’s blackmail dressed up in legalese.

Maxwell, currently serving a 20-year sentence for trafficking minors to satisfy the perversions of the rich and powerful, has made it known through her attorney that she’ll only speak to Congress if she’s granted full immunity—or even clemency. In other words, she’s dangling testimony in exchange for a get-out-of-jail card. That’s not how justice works in America.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, a Republican from Kentucky, had the right idea. He issued a subpoena to Maxwell to testify from the federal prison in Tallahassee. The goal? To get to the bottom of the Epstein network and finally bring sunlight to the names and institutions that have long been protected by the political elite, the media, and—let’s not kid ourselves—the Department of Justice under past Democratic administrations.

Maxwell’s lawyer, David Oscar Markus, responded with a list of non-negotiables: no prison interviews, no testimony without immunity, and, most outrageously, clemency in exchange for “the truth.” This from a woman convicted of recruiting and grooming underage girls for a pedophile network that allegedly involved some of the world’s most powerful men.

Let’s not forget, Epstein didn’t operate in a vacuum. His private island wasn’t a social club for the average Joe. It was a playground for billionaires, princes, and political elites. And for years, the DOJ, FBI, and legacy media have conveniently tiptoed around the question Americans actually care about: Who else was involved?

The DOJ under President Trump has finally begun cracking open the sealed vault. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche reportedly met with Maxwell to explore what information might still be released. This comes after a damning memo revealed the DOJ previously claimed it had “no client list” and would release no more Epstein-related materials. That absurd stonewalling—under prior leadership—sparked widespread outrage. Americans aren’t stupid. We know a cover-up when we see one.

Now that Congress is finally pressing for answers, Maxwell wants to rewrite the rules. She claims prison is an unsuitable setting for honest testimony and that her constitutional rights would be at risk. Give me a break. She had no concern for the rights of the girls she helped traffic. Now she’s worried about “leaks” and “the integrity of the process”? Spare us the theater.

Even more brazenly, her lawyer claims she didn’t receive a fair trial and that she’s the real victim. This is the same line we hear from every crooked elite when the spotlight finally lands on them. Maxwell isn’t a political prisoner. She’s a convicted criminal whose victims haven’t received a fraction of the justice they deserve.

What she’s really doing is protecting the names—names that likely include high-profile Democrats, media moguls, and international elites. That’s why the Left and their allies in the bureaucracy have been so desperate to close the book on Epstein. The truth threatens their power.

Chairman Comer and House Republicans must hold the line. No immunity. No clemency. If Maxwell wants to talk, let her do it under oath, behind bars. If she pleads the Fifth, fine—let the American people see that, too. But Congress must not negotiate with criminals in exchange for cherry-picked truth. This is about restoring trust, not offering sweetheart deals to the very people who helped cover up one of the biggest scandals in modern history.

The American people deserve answers. Not redacted documents. Not excuses. And certainly not a bargain with a convicted trafficker.

It’s time to rip the lid off the Epstein network once and for all. Either Ghislaine Maxwell cooperates under the law, or she can rot in prison, right where she belongs.
