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.

Guest article by Lev Parnas

As I woke up this morning and saw the breaking news that Assistant Attorney General Todd Blanche announced—on behalf of Trump’s Department of Justice and Attorney General Pam Bondi—that he will be meeting with Ghislaine Maxwell in the coming days, I knew what was coming.

You’re going to see a flood of headlines. You’re going to hear official statements. And you’re going to get a lot of spin today.

But almost none of these pundits know Todd Blanche like I do.

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.

Blanche will try to cut a deal. Offer leniency, maybe even early release. And in return, he’ll want a story. One that implicates someone like Bill Clinton and clears Trump. He’s not going to Maxwell for facts—he’s going for leverage.

And I know that playbook, because I lived it.

Back then, it was Bill Barr pulling the strings. Rudy Giuliani. Todd Blanche. They told me to stay quiet. Told me if I said nothing, I’d walk free.

But I didn’t stay quiet. I chose to speak out. I chose to risk everything to tell the truth.

And what I’m watching unfold right now with Maxwell… it looks exactly the same.

They don’t want to hear the truth. They want to shut her up.

Just like they tried to do with me.

Because they don’t want justice. They want control.

And let me be absolutely clear—because there’s no gray area here.

I am in no way defending Ghislaine Maxwell or advocating for her to receive any leniency. On the contrary, I believe Maxwell may be even worse than Epstein himself. She used trust, charm, and access to lure vulnerable girls into a predatory system. She enabled it. She helped build it. She was a key part of a disgusting, criminal pedophile trafficking ring that destroyed lives. She deserves every day of her sentence—and then some.

But if we truly want justice—if we actually want to get to the bottom of this—I believe we need all the facts. And that means hearing the truth from every player involved, no matter how repulsive. What I won’t stand for is a government that manipulates that truth, rewrites history, and buries the parts that implicate their allies. That’s what this is really about. And that’s why I’m speaking up.

And that brings me to something else we need to talk about—because if Donald Trump is going this far to control what Ghislaine Maxwell says, then we need to ask: who else is he covering up for?

Who else was involved? Who else is buried in those sealed files? Who was at those parties? Who was flown on those planes? Who does Trump think is worth protecting—worth rewriting history for? Because it’s not just about shielding himself anymore. It’s about shielding an entire network of powerful people who have evaded justice for decades. And the more pressure builds, the more desperate this cover-up becomes.

And we need to be clear—this isn’t just about political games or curiosity. This is about justice for the victims. For the young girls and boys. For the women who were trafficked, silenced, and discarded by the rich and powerful like they were nothing. Many of them never got to tell their story. Many of them still live with the trauma. And many never survived to see justice. We speak for them now. We are their voice. We are their megaphone. And that’s exactly why Trump and his cronies are trying to shut it all down—because this isn’t about protecting the country. It’s about protecting the elite. The predators. The insiders. But this is where we draw the line. We will not let them bury the truth. We will not let them rewrite history. If we stay silent now, we fail them. And I refuse to be part of that silence.

There are a lot of pundits and commentators who will give you their hot takes. But if you want the truth—if you want to hear it from someone who’s been inside that machine, who knows these players personally and understands the facts they’re trying to bury—then I need you to do something:

And remember—Trump isn’t just trying to shut Maxwell up. He’s going after every leaker, every newspaper, and every independent journalist still telling the truth. And that includes me.

I’m risking everything—my freedom—to bring you this information. And I’m hearing he’s flipping out about what I’ve been exposing.

This isn’t just a platform.

It isn’t just a movement.

This is the resistance. This is a family. And we are just getting started.
