In a federal prison interview, Ghislaine Maxwell made explosive claims linking her directly to one of America’s most powerful political dynasties. For the first time, she described herself as “very central” to the founding of the Clinton Global Initiative, a platform that has shaped global philanthropy for nearly two decades.

The DOJ transcript reveals Maxwell speaking with confidence about her ties to Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton, even recalling invitations to Davos and Chelsea’s wedding. She also detailed tensions with Jeffrey Epstein, accusing him of trying to insert himself into her philanthropic work.

CNN footage and records confirm Maxwell was not just present at CGI events but honored for her conservation nonprofit, underscoring her influence in elite circles despite growing scandal.

The disclosures raise profound questions about how access and influence operate at the highest levels of politics and philanthropy—and whether accountability has ever kept pace with power.
