"The congressman also wants to know if Maxwell or one of her reps reached out to Trump about getting a pardon or reduced sentence in exchange for her silence. Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence in federal prison after she was convicted of conspiring with Epstein to sexually abuse minors.

In his letter, Ro notes that Maxwell previously met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche to discuss the Epstein matter without invoking the Fifth, calling her sudden U-turn on the topic "inconsistent."

Just like Trump would. Both of them are pedos.

So.... what does it say about the Pres if a witness avoids incriminating themselves by taking the 5th when asked if she ever witnessed crimes by DJT?
