(Ghislanie Maxwell's) attorney David Oscar Markus said Maxwell would like to answer (Congress') questions but must remain silent as she has a petition before the legal system challenging the fairness of her trial and conviction.
He then made an extraordinary pitch directly to Trump that Maxwell would offer the country the unfiltered truth including clearing the names of Trump and former president Bill Clinton in exchange for clemency.
If this committee and the American public truly want to hear the unfiltered truth about what happened, there is a straightforward path, Markus told the closed-door congressional hearing, and later posted to social media.
Ms Maxwell is prepared to speak fully and honestly if granted clemency by President Trump. Only she can provide the complete account.

I thought it was hilarious when Trump suddenly started defending both Clintons and saying how much he likes them.
This whole house of cards needs to come down now.

What on earth could she do or say that would clear him? And why would anyone believe a word she says?

The rotten heart of the U.S., a nation whose Jim Crow laws inspired Nazi Germany, is being laid bare for the world to see how truly corrupt American culture is.
