Jeffrey Epstein’s Brother Makes Bombshell Claim Epstein Files Are Being Scrubbed of Republican Names

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Mark Epstein, the brother of the late sex offender, has made a bombshell claim that Republicans’ names are getting scrubbed from the government’s files on the deceased disgraced sex offender.

‘I’ve been recently told the reason they’re going to be releasing these things, and the reason for the flip is that they’re sanitizing these files,’ Mark Epstein told NewsNation on Monday.

The late pedophile’s younger brother said he had been tipped off by a ‘pretty good source’ that the FBI has been working to clean the files.

‘There’s a facility in Winchester, Virginia, where they’re scrubbing the files to take Republican names out of it,’ Mark Epstein claimed. Though he never named any specific Republicans who may have had their names blotted out.

The FBI maintains its Central Records Complex in Winchester, Virginia, but declined to comment on Epstein’s claims. (Read more from “Jeffrey Epstein’s Brother Makes Bombshell Claim Epstein Files Are Being Scrubbed of Republican Names” HERE)

Congress Forces Release of Epstein Files After Trump U-Turn

/0 Comments/in , /by

In a stunning and nearly unanimous move, both the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate voted this week to force the Department of Justice to release the long-sealed Jeffrey Epstein case files—ending months of political pressure, activist lobbying, and dramatic reversals from President Donald Trump himself.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act passed the House 427–1, then cleared the Senate without a single objection, fast-tracked through the chamber in a matter of hours. The bill now heads to President Trump, who—after long opposing the release and calling the matter a “Democrat hoax”—has signaled he will sign it into law.

Once signed, the Justice Department will have 30 days to release the full collection of investigative files related to Epstein and his co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell. Survivors and advocates have spent weeks calling this moment a historic breakthrough—though many observers warn that the final result may still fall short of full transparency.

For years, Trump had urged Republicans to avoid pushing for the release of Epstein documents, claiming Democrats were weaponizing the issue for political reasons. That changed abruptly this week, when Trump reversed course and declared that Republicans should support the bill.

He has since vowed to investigate the Democratic power players most associated with Epstein, including Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, and executives connected to major financial institutions.

Notably, however, Trump has not publicly committed to probing Republicans who have been tied to Epstein socially or professionally.

Even with the bill set to become law, some legal experts and survivor advocates are raising a difficult possibility:

After years of stonewalling, legal shielding, and sealed evidence, key information may already be gone.

Under the bill:

The Attorney General may still withhold documents if releasing them would expose minors or jeopardize ongoing investigations.

Congress did not have to force this vote—Trump could have ordered full disclosure at any time.

The DOJ has already had five years since Epstein’s death to process, redact, or classify materials.

Rep. Thomas Massie, the Republican who helped lead the transparency push, warned that elite influence must not shape what the public ultimately sees.

“I hope those victims have confidence to come out and say the names,” he told BBC Newsnight, adding that lawmakers should not “create any special exemptions for these rich men who are worried about getting embarrassed.”

Survivors have echoed the same sentiment, telling lawmakers that anything less than full accountability would be “another betrayal.”

Jeffrey Epstein’s Brother Wants a ‘Real’ Investigation Into Prison Death, Not a ‘Cover-Up’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Donald Trump’s decision to reverse course on Sunday night and urge House Republicans to vote to release the government’s files on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein may have sent the media into a frenzy, but it didn’t move Mark Epstein.

“I really don’t care. I’m not interested in the files or anything,” Epstein, the late financier’s brother, told TheWrap on Monday. “My brother’s dead, so it doesn’t matter to me. What I’m concerned about is the fact that Jeffrey did not commit suicide.”

Mark Epstein has long maintained that his brother didn’t take his own life in a Manhattan jail in August 2019 while facing federal sex-trafficking charges. He expressed doubt Monday that unreleased government files will provide any fresh insight into his brother’s death.

“There’s a whole cover-up,” Epstein added. “The DOJ is covering this up. They never investigated this as if it might be anything other than a suicide.”

The Epstein saga came roaring back last week following the release of more than 20,000 emails, some suggesting Trump was aware of his former friend’s sex-trafficking of underage women, claims the president has strongly denied. The document dump came hours before the swearing-in of Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva, who provided the final signature to force a vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Larry Summers Flew on Epstein’s Private Jet to ‘Pedophile Island’ in 2005 — With Ghislaine Maxwell

/0 Comments/in , /by

Bill Clinton’s Treasury secretary, Larry Summers, took a trip to Jeffrey Epstein’s notorious private island, flight records show.

Economist Summers, 70, was this week revealed to have kept a friendly relationship with sex offender Epstein up until his death through emails newly-released by the government.

Flight logs reveal he flew on the billionaire’s private jet four times, including a flight on December 21, 2005, to Charlotte Amalie, the capital of St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands.

Epstein’s private jet had to land there as Little St. James does not have a runway. The island is a short helicopter ride away.

Three of Summers’ trips on Epstein’s jet — dubbed the “Lolita Express” because it was allegedly used to transport victims and perpetrators in his sex trafficking ring — took place while he was President of Harvard university, between 2001 and 2006.

WATCH: New Epstein Emails Ignite a Political Firestorm as President Trump Pressures GOP to Shut Down Congressional Probe; Chaos: Vince Foster, ‘Bubba,’ Russians, Dementia Claims

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Newly released emails from Jeffrey Epstein have reopened long-simmering questions about his ties to President Donald Trump, setting off a fierce political showdown on Capitol Hill and injecting new urgency into Democrats’ push to fully release the government’s sealed Epstein records.

The tranche of documents, disclosed Wednesday by House Democrats on the Oversight Committee, includes several previously unseen emails in which Epstein name-drops Trump in casual, matter-of-fact exchanges — at times suggesting familiarity, at others claiming insight into Trump’s behavior or mental state. The messages span from 2011 to 2018, weaving a complicated picture of a disgraced financier who remained plugged into elite political, diplomatic, and social circles even after his first sex-offense conviction.

Democrats: Emails raise questions about what Trump knew

Among the messages drawing the most attention is a brief but explosive 2017 email in which Epstein tells an associate that Trump had “spent hours at my house” with one of the girls connected to Epstein. Another message is even more direct, alleging Trump “knew about the girls.”

House Democrats say the emails reinforce the need for a full public accounting of the government’s Epstein files.

“The American people deserve clarity,” committee Democrats said as they released the documents, arguing that Trump’s name appears too frequently in Epstein’s correspondence to dismiss as coincidence.

The White House: A ‘smear campaign’

The Trump White House immediately denounced the release as political gamesmanship.

Calling the emails a “smear,” officials accused Democrats of selectively leaking documents while ignoring Epstein communications involving Democrats and other prominent figures.

Trump himself took a sharper tone online, claiming the disclosures were designed to “deflect” from the end of the government shutdown — and issuing a blunt warning to his own party:

“Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap.”

Inside the emails: Vince Foster, Thanksgiving guests, Russian diplomats, and private insults

While many Epstein emails are cryptic or typo-filled, several stand out for their direct references to Trump.

A 2017 Thanksgiving headcount

In one casual exchange with model-scouting executive Faith Kates, Epstein listed his apparent holiday guests:

“David fizel. hanson. trump.”

It is unclear whether Trump actually attended, or whether Epstein was exaggerating his proximity to powerful individuals — something he was known to do.

Epstein claimed he helped Russians ‘understand Trump’

In a 2018 exchange with European diplomat Thorbjorn Jagland, Epstein offered himself as an informal interpreter of Trump’s psychology for Russian officials, boasting that the late U.N. ambassador Vitaly Churkin “understood trump after our conversations.”

“I have met some very bad people,” Epstein wrote, “none as bad as trump.”

Epstein questioned Trump’s mental fitness

In several conversations, Epstein expressed scathing views of Trump’s personality and mental health — calling him “dangerous,” “f—- crazy,” and speculating about “early dementia.”

These messages contrast sharply with Trump’s public insistence that he barely knew Epstein and cut off contact long before Epstein’s 2019 imprisonment.

A viral email adds fuel: ‘Trump blowing Bubba’

One email from Epstein’s brother, Mark Epstein, went viral for an incendiary aside: a suggestion — framed as speculation — that Russian President Vladimir Putin might possess a compromising photo of “Trump blowing Bubba.”

“Bubba” is the long-standing nickname for Bill Clinton, who has also faced scrutiny for his association with Epstein.

Republicans on the Oversight Committee countered by releasing the entire 20,000-page document haul, accusing Democrats of “cherry-picking” emails to attack Trump while ignoring mentions of Democratic officials.

The very weird Vince Foster reference:

Both sides agree on one thing: the new emails are only the beginning.

If the discharge petition succeeds, Congress may soon be forced to decide whether the full web of Epstein’s associations — political, social, foreign, and otherwise — will finally see daylight.

Epstein Emails Released by House Democrats Allege Trump ‘Knew About the Girls’

/3 Comments/in , , /by

Newly released emails from convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein appear to claim that President Donald Trump was aware of Epstein’s relationships with underage girls, according to documents made public Wednesday by House Democrats.

The three emails — part of a 20,000-page tranche of Epstein estate records — were shared by Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, revealing previously unseen correspondence between Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and author Michael Wolff.

In one 2011 message to Maxwell, Epstein wrote, “That dog that hasn’t barked is Trump… [victim] spent hours at my house with him… he has never once been mentioned.”

Another email from 2019 to Wolff reads, “[Victim] Mar-a-Lago. [REDACTED]. Trump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever. Of course he knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop.”

Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), the top Democrat on the Oversight panel, said the emails raise urgent questions about what Trump and his administration knew — and when.

“The more Donald Trump tries to cover up the Epstein files, the more we uncover,” Garcia said in a statement. “These latest emails raise glaring questions about what else the White House is hiding. The Department of Justice must release the Epstein files to the public immediately.”

Democrats have been pushing for the DOJ to fully declassify Epstein-related materials, a move that could gain traction as the House prepares to vote to reopen the government. Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) is expected to be sworn in Wednesday, providing the final signature needed to force floor action on the bill compelling the DOJ to release all Epstein documents.

The White House condemned Democrats’ release of the emails as “selective and misleading,” defending Trump’s past actions toward Epstein.

“The Democrats selectively leaked emails to the liberal media to create a fake narrative to smear President Trump,” Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said. “President Trump kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of his club decades ago for being a creep to his female employees, including Virginia Giuffre.”

Leavitt noted that the victim referenced in the emails — whose name Democrats redacted — was Virginia Giuffre, the former Mar-a-Lago employee and one of Epstein’s most vocal accusers, who died by suicide earlier this year.

“Giuffre repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever,” Leavitt added. “These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s accomplishments and the government reopening.”

Giuffre’s family criticized Trump earlier this year after he claimed Epstein had “stolen” her from Mar-a-Lago.

“It was shocking to hear President Trump invoke our sister and say that he was aware that Virginia had been ‘stolen,’” her family said. “It makes us ask if he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal actions.”

Epstein’s correspondence with Wolff shows a calculated attempt to use Trump’s public image to his advantage. In one message, Wolff suggested that if Trump denied their relationship, Epstein could gain “political currency.”

“If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, that gives you valuable PR and political currency,” Wolff wrote. “If it looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt.”

In a separate controversy earlier this year, Trump sued The Wall Street Journal for defamation after it published a story revealing a 2003 birthday note he allegedly wrote to Epstein. The note — later verified by the Oversight Committee — referred to a “wonderful secret” and said the two men “have certain things in common.”

The email release comes just days after House Judiciary Democrats revealed whistleblower claims that Ghislaine Maxwell is receiving “concierge-style treatment” in a Texas federal prison while preparing to seek a commutation of her sentence from Trump.

According to those reports, Maxwell has access to staff-only areas, private workouts, and custom meal deliveries — privileges that critics say highlight her ongoing influence and connections.

‘I Know How Dirty Donald Is’: Stunningly Candid Epstein Email About Trump Gets Released — By Republicans

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Republicans on the House Oversight Committee released a trove of Epstein-related files on Wednesday following House Democrats’ release of emails showing Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell discussing President Donald Trump. . .

The emails released by the Republicans are also not flattering for Trump, with an exchange including Epstein writing, “you see , i know how dirty donald is.”

The email dated August 23, 2018, appears to show Epstein and former Obama White House Counsel Kathy Ruemmler discussing Trump’s former fixer, Michael Cohen, flipping on him.

The subject line on the email chain reads, “NYTimes: Donald Trump’s High Crimes and Misdemeanors” and begins with Ruemmler sharing an article with Epstein. “Here’s a story from The New York Times that I thought you’d find interesting: The principled case for impeachment is clear. What’s missing is the courage,” reads Ruemmler’s email. “Donald Trump’s High Crimes and Misdemeanors” is the title of August 22, 2018 oped in the Times by Bret Stephens that included the sub head, “The principled case for impeachment is clear. What’s missing is the courage.”

Epstein replied:

I think he makes the argument that it was his, trumps money , making it not illegal. though he also said he only found out afterwards? and the fact according to the indicment [sic] was billed as services rendered and grossed up. im sure his acct has flipped anyway. , I did talk in detail to starr yesterday re indicments [sic] how trump can make a deal (special counsel). clintons trash can yes starr gave me more. YECHHHH!.

Discharge Petition to Force House Vote on Epstein Files Succeeds With Grijalva’s Signature

/0 Comments/in , /by

A discharge petition for a bill to release files related to Jeffrey Epstein got enough signatures Wednesday to force action on the matter, teeing up a long-sought vote on the House floor relating to the convicted sex offender.

Rep. Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) became the 218th and final signature on the discharge petition shortly after she was sworn in Wednesday. She joined all other Democrats and four Republicans: Reps. Thomas Massie (Ky.), Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.), Lauren Boebert (Colo.) and Nancy Mace (S.C.).

Grijalva signed the petition on the House floor immediately after being sworn in as Democrats in the chamber cheered and two Epstein survivors looked on from the gallery.

“Just this morning, House Democrats released more emails showing that [President] Trump knew more about Epstein’s abuses than he previously acknowledged. It’s about time for Congress to restore its role as a check and balance on this administration and fight for we, the American people,” she said in her first speech.

She added, “Justice cannot wait another day.” (Read more from “Discharge Petition to Force House Vote on Epstein Files Succeeds With Grijalva’s Signature” HERE)

JPMorgan Alerted U.S. to Epstein Transfers Involving Wall St. Figures

/0 Comments/in , /by

Weeks after Jeffrey Epstein died in federal custody in 2019 awaiting prosecution on sex-trafficking charges, JPMorgan Chase filed a report alerting the US government to tens of millions of dollars of potentially suspicious transactions involving him and prominent Wall Street and business figures.

The so-called suspicious activity report that JPMorgan filed identified transactions with Leon Black, the co-founder of private equity firm Apollo Global Management; Glenn Dubin, a well-known hedge fund manager; lawyer Alan Dershowitz; and trusts controlled by Leslie Wexner, the retail tycoon.

The nature of the transactions, as well as Epstein’s role in them, is unclear.

JPMorgan said in its report that it was flagging about 4,700 transactions, totaling more than $1 billion, because they were potentially related to reports of human trafficking involving Epstein. It also mentioned Epstein’s wire transfers to Russian banks and sensitivities around “his relationships with two U.S. presidents.” Epstein at times was close with President Donald Trump and former President Bill Clinton.

None of the men mentioned in the report have been charged with crimes in connection to Epstein. (Read more from “JPMorgan Alerted U.S. to Epstein Transfers Involving Wall St. Figures” HERE)

Jeffrey Epstein Alleged to Broker Secret Back-Channel Between Ehud Barak and Vladimir Putin

/0 Comments/in , /by

Leaked emails allegedly reveal that Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender, served as a behind-the‐scenes “fixer” arranging diplomatic contacts between former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Russia during the height of the Syrian Civil War (2013-2016).

According to the hacking group known as the Handala Hacking Team, and published by Distributed Denial of Secrets via Drop Site News, the emails between Barak and Epstein show the following:

Epstein arranged a private meeting between Barak and Putin in the summer of 2013, to explore a Russia-led solution for removing Syrian President Bashar al‑Assad, with Israel’s interests at stake.

On February 21, 2014, Epstein wrote to Barak:

“with civil unrest exploding in ukraine, syria, somolia [sic], libya, and the desperation of those in power, isn’t this perfect for you.”

Barak responded:

“You’re right [in] a way. But not simple to transform it into a cash flow. A subject for Saturday.”

Epstein’s line frames multiple global hotspots (Ukraine, Syria, Somalia, Libya) in a single sweeping sentence—“the desperation of those in power” being ripe for opportunity. This suggests he was positioning Barak to exploit geopolitical unrest not purely for statesmanship but for something like strategic positioning or business advantage.

Epstein allegedly offered tactical advice on how to pressure the Barack Obama administration into military action against Iran after Syria, writing:

“I would use the opportunity to compare it with iran… the solutions become more compelx with time not less… hopefully someone suggests getting authorization now for Iran. the congress woudl do it.”

The communications also show Epstein advising Barak on business ventures—for example, coordinating with Russian-Israeli oligarch Viktor Vekselberg and the Renova Group for consultancy roles in Russia, again with Epstein’s help.

In short: the hacked emails portray Jeffrey Epstein not just as a financier and criminal, but as a clandestine intermediary in international diplomacy — working with Ehud Barak to engage Russia during a critical phase of the Syrian war. If substantiated, these revelations could reshape how we understand both Epstein’s global network and the murky corridors of back-channel diplomacy in the 2010s.
