Trump "ALLEGEDLY" orchestrating a pardon for Maxwell in exchange for her saying he did nothing wrong

As Blanche was reportedly meeting with Maxwell on Thursday, Bondi's former border czar, Dave Aronberg, called the move "extraordinary."

"I can't overstate it, Brianna. It's as if the number two executive at CNN was conducting this interview with me instead of you," he told CNN's Brianna Keilar. "Like, what? It never happens. Also, he's not going to be knowledgeable about this case like the line prosecutors who actually handled her case. Like, Maurene Comey, but she was fired."

"But there are others who could do this, which makes me believe this is a lot about perhaps some politics involved, like maybe to protect the president, to get a deal with Ghislaine Maxwell that she would get some immunity now and maybe a hidden pardon in the future, some sort of implication that she would be pardoned in the future if she comes out and says that the president was exonerated, not involved in any criminal activity," he explained.

"And Trump doesn't want to be anywhere near this smoke. That's why he's sending his trusted former defense lawyer, the number two person of the Department of Justice, to go see Ghislaine Maxwell herself," he added.

be willing to negotiate. That conversation is in, as some say, "the vault."

Presidents shouldn’t be allowed to pardon convicts who have the goods on them.

That the founders didn’t think it all the way through.

Trump’s abuses have shown that the constitution doesn’t provide as many safe guards as we thought, but that’s partly because we have a Supreme Court that has basically greenlit most of his actions (with no commentary or even reasoning), and a congress that gave up long ago on being a “coequal” branch of government.

The deal is a full pardon and a private jet to the location of my choice or Rupert Murdoch will release more incriminating stuff every week until you agree.

And if I’m killed, he will release something every week forever….
