Epstein Scandal Still Brewing after Ghislane gets Prison Pod Upgrade
Ghislaine Maxwell, born on a December 25th, just got an early get-out-of-Jail birthday card from Donald Trump—delivered by the Department of Justice. Epstein’s Madame received a transfer to a minimum security prison. Trump’s staunchest supporters seem rather non-plussed by it all.

On July 17, The Wall Street Journal published a previously unseen birthday letter and drawing, allegedly from Trump to Epstein, pulled from Maxwell’s personal photo album. The source of the leak remains unknown, but neither Trump’s team nor Maxwell’s camp has denied its authenticity. The timing raised eyebrows—and alarm.
Just days later, on July 24 and 25, Trump’s own former defense attorney turned Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, made an unprecedented visit to Maxwell in prison. His two-day, nine-hour-long session with the convicted trafficker was negotiated under a limited immunity agreement. Then, on August 1, Maxwell was quietly transferred to a minimum-security camp in Bryan, Texas—a downgrade in security typically reserved for nonviolent white-collar criminals, not convicted conspirators in an international sex-trafficking ring.
Meanwhile, Trump’s base—once rabidly vocal about Epstein’s crimes—has fallen silent. The closer this scandal inches toward Trump himself, the less outrage there is from those who once demanded justice. The “lock her up” crowd suddenly has nothing to say when the woman who literally locked up young girls gets upgraded living conditions under Trump’s DOJ.
No one is asking the obvious questions. Why Blanche? Why now? Was this a backdoor negotiation? Who leaked the letter—and why? And why is the man who once promised to drain the swamp now connected, at the highest levels, to sweetheart treatment for Epstein’s enabler?
Whispers of a pardon are no longer fringe speculation. With Maxwell’s conditions improving and Trump’s inner circle engaging directly, the stage is being set for a disturbing possibility—one the media is too distracted or too afraid to pursue.

ABOUT NICK BRYANT…
Nick Bryant is an investigative journalist. He spent seven years investigating a child sex trafficking network that was covered up by state and federal authorities, culminating in The Franklin Scandal: A Story of Powerbrokers, Child Abuse, and Betrayal. The trafficking network I wrote about in The Franklin Scandal has been the focal point of considerable misinformation and/or disinformation on the Internet. Individuals who, perhaps, suffer from psychiatric disorders have woven the Illuminati and shape shifting reptilian ETs into the narrative.
But the book’s foremost transgressor has been Wikipedia. The “Franklin child prostitution ring allegations” Wikipedia page has been under siege by unscrupulous Wikipedia “editors,” and they’ve intentionally made it nonsensical.
The Franklin Scandal and the Epstein scandal are quite similar in the sense that both child trafficking networks were covered up by state and federal authorities and the mainstream media has been complicit, because it never demanded justice for the children whose lives had been disfigured. I started investigating the Epstein network in 2012, when I acquired his “Little Black Book”—seven years before the case broke nationally. I pitched an article on the Little Black Book for three years to mainstream media outlets, but, like The Franklin Scandal, my pitches were met with unbridled skepticism and incredulity. In 2015, finally, Gawker published the Little Black Book and accompanying articles. I found it ironic that Gawker, considered to be the mean kids in the media, had the fortitude to publish a story about children whose lives have been disfigured with impunity, whereas media outlets ostensibly immersed in integrity had rejected the story.
His latest book, The Truth About Watergate: A Tale of Extraordinary Lies and Liars, details the false narrative that our history books have imparted about the infamous Watergate affair.
