In a largely symbolic move, the MAGA-led Senate voted a resolution by unanimous consent stating that underage sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, an associate of Jeffrey Epstein, should receive no "pardon, commutation, or any other form of executive clemency" from Epstein friend and adjudicated sex abuser / rapist the Malignant Fascist. From The Guardian:
"The US Senate on Wednesday unanimously passed a resolution declaring its opposition to any presidential pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell, the longtime Jeffrey Epstein associate who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex-trafficking crimes. [snip]
Although Senate resolutions like these are non-binding and symbolic, [Nevada Sen. Jackie] Rosen’s office noted in a news release in February when she introduced the measure that the resolution was 'designed to put the Senate on record opposing the prospect' of Donald Trump of granting a pardon or clemency to Maxwell. [snip]
By refusing to object, Republicans agreed to the resolution, which states that granting Maxwell 'a pardon, commutation, or any other form of executive clemency' would be 'inconsistent with the interests of justice and accountability for crimes involving the sexual exploitation of children'. The resolution also states that 'the President should not grant a pardon, commutation, or any other form of executive clemency' to Maxwell.
“The Senate stands with the victims of sexual exploitation and trafficking and affirms its commitment to justice, accountability, and the protection of children,” it adds.
The resolution comes as Maxwell has exhausted a series of appeals of her conviction, with the US supreme court declining to hear her petition last October." (our emphasis)
Ever since her conviction on sex trafficking, the MF has been sending her signals not to divulge details of his relationship with Epstein, both in comments he's made, and in sending his personal criminal defense lawyer, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, to talk with her and move her to a minimum security "club Fed" style facility to please her and keep her on the MF's side.
