We’ve known for some time now that former President Bill Clinton and the alleged “madame” of billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — Ghislaine Maxwell — knew each other.
But explosive new information has just released.
And it adds a brand new layer to the sordid Epstein saga.
According to bestselling author and investigative reporter Vicky Ward, Clinton and Maxwell took a 2003 trip to India aboard the infamous “Lolita Express,” and even stayed together at the same hotel.
The alleged trip is one of two previously undisclosed flights recently revealed.
Daily Mail reports that the excursion was part of a Clinton Foundation initiative.
And Ward says Epstein wasn’t there.
She’s suggesting that Maxwell became a close insider of Clinton’s post-presidential rat pack in order to distance herself from Epstein as their relationship went cold.
“Remember, Clinton’s post-presidency was an exciting, very attractive place to be,” said Ward. “He and an entourage went on fascinating trips to Europe, to Asia, to Africa and he met with extremely interesting people.”
“Now, records I’ve seen recently show that in 2003, Ghislaine visited the Taj Mahal with Bill Clinton and a group of around 20 others. This trip has not previously been reported. Jeffrey wasn’t on it. And that was key in cementing Ghislaine’s rise as a VIP in her own right in Clinton World, according to sources close to Bill Clinton.”
So it seems that she became more than an associate.
Ward notes that Maxwell became a VIP inside of Clinton’s circle — and the go-to for Epstein’s big money toward Clinton’s philanthropy efforts.
“I’ve also only recently learned from sources close to Bill Clinton that he and his post-presidency staff considered Ghislaine to be just as important as Jeffrey — if not more so.”
“She was the go-to person for ‘financial asks’ for Jeffrey’s money by the Clinton Foundation and then the Global Initiative. … This meant that Ghislaine was constantly being asked to Clinton VIP gatherings.”
Whether or not Clinton and Maxwell had physical relations remains unknown.
But if the allegations are true, Maxwell — who is awaiting a November trial for her role in Epstein’s sex ring — may very well have been closer to the former president than the billionaire pedophile himself.
