President Donald Trump has a lot of things on his mind — but pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell is not one of them.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Tuesday that a pardon for Jeffrey Epstein’s girlfriend is not a “priority,” per Newsmax.

“If this Committee and the American public truly want to hear the unfiltered truth about what happened, there is a straightforward path,” Markus said.

“Ms. Maxwell is prepared to speak fully and honestly if granted clemency by President Trump.”
