These Are the Bombshell Epstein Files That Led to Ex-Prince Andrew’s Arrest

/0 Comments/in , /by

The former Prince Andrew is accused of betraying the UK by sharing confidential information with Jeffrey Epstein and his pals — and files that were recently released by the US Justice Department culminated in his arrest Thursday.

In one of the emails from October 2010, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor forwarded official reports to Epstein, sharing the details of his visits to mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Vietnam with the disgraced financier.

On Christmas Eve 2010, he also messaged Epstein and sent him a confidential briefing about investment opportunities in Afghanistan, where the UK government was funding reconstruction in Helmand Province, the emails released by the DOJ show.

“Attached is a confidential brief produced by the Provincial Reconstruction Team in Helmand Province for International Investment Opportunities,” the email reportedly from Andrew to Epstein reads.

“I am going to offer this elsewhere in my network (including Abu Dhabi) but would be very interested in your comments, views or ideas as to whom I could also usefully show this to attract some interest,” the email continues.

DOJ Quietly Takes Down FBI Interview of 13-Year-Old Victim Accusing Trump Of Sexual Assault

/0 Comments/in , /by

The US Department of Justice appears to have removed records showing the FBI conducted multiple interviews with a woman who accused Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was between 13 and 15 years old.

Investigative journalist Roger Sollenberger broke the story on 17 February 2026, and the Daily Beast subsequently confirmed his findings.

A single FBI interview summary from July 2019 is still accessible on the DOJ’s public Epstein database. That is it.

A document that reportedly catalogued at least three additional formal interviews — conducted in August and October of that year — is no longer available at its original web address.

Trump has denied all wrongdoing related to Jeffrey Epstein. He told reporters aboard Air Force One on 17 February that he has been ‘exonerated’ by the files. ‘I have nothing to hide,’ he said.

/3 Comments/in , , /by

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor – formerly Prince Andrew, Duke of York – was arrested Thursday morning on suspicion of misconduct in public office. He was apprehended and placed in police custody on his 66th birthday.

The BBC notes this is the first time the second son of the late Queen Elizabeth II, who has faced numerous allegations over his links to the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, has been arrested.

Andrew has consistently and strenuously denied any wrongdoing.

olice did not directly name Mountbatten-Windsor, as is normal under U.K. law. But when asked if he had been arrested, the force pointed to a statement (see below) saying they had arrested a man in his 60s.

Mountbatten-Windsor is 66 and today is his birthday.

He was apprehended after a raid on his new Sandringham home. (Read more from “Prince Andrew Arrested on Suspicion of Misconduct in Public Office” HERE)

Alleged Epstein Accomplice Les Wexner Tries To Clarify Relationship During Congressional Testimony

/0 Comments/in , /by

Billionaire businessman Les Wexner tried to clarify his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein during his congressional testimony, the Daily Caller has learned.

Wexner, CEO and founder of L Brands, the parent company of Victoria’s Secret and one of Epstein’s most prominent associates was deposed Wednesday before the House Oversight Committee in Ohio. . .

Wexner testified that he was conned by Epstein, who he referred to as an Olympic-level con artist, according to a person familiar with his testimony.

Wexner stated during his testimony that Epstein never presented him with women for his sexual entertainment. He claimed that co-conspirator and convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell also never introduced him to anyone — male or female, according to the person familiar.

The L Brands founder further asserted that Maxwell never played a role in Wexner’s business dealings and that he never witnessed Epstein act inappropriately around women in his presence.

‘You’re Going to See More Defections’: Thomas Massie’s Ominous Prediction for the GOP

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Thomas Massie has gone toe-to-toe with the president of the United States, the speaker of the House and the attorney general in just the last few months. And he says there’s more to come. . .

Massie was the sole Republican to spar with Attorney General Pam Bondi at a combative congressional hearing last week, but he said for now, he won’t pursue efforts to hold her in contempt for not fully releasing the files.

“I don’t think it’s necessary to proverbially pull a knife right now in this argument because we’re winning it,” he said. “When the attorney general is reduced to a stack of pre-prepared insults to deliver, and when the DOJ is responding to my every tweet with additional unredactions, I don’t think I’m going to change what I’m doing just yet.”

Massie also joined several other Republicans recently to buck President Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson on legislation that would block some Trump tariffs. And he had an ominous prediction for GOP leadership in the coming months.

“On any given day, I would just need one or two of my own co-conspirators to get something done,” he said. “I think you’re going to see more defections.” (Read more from “‘You’re Going to See More Defections’: Thomas Massie’s Ominous Prediction for the GOP” HERE)

Weird: Texas GOP Politician Plans Christian Retreat at Epstein’s Zorro Ranch

/0 Comments/in , /by

The new owners of the late Jeffrey Epstein’s sprawling Santa Fe County ranch revealed their plans for the property Monday — the same day they announced they would cooperate with any law enforcement investigations into potential crimes committed there.

The Texas family who owns Epstein’s Zorro Ranch plans to convert it into a Christian retreat, owner Don Huffines posted on social media Monday night.

“What the enemy once meant for evil, God can redeem for good,” Huffines wrote on X.

That’s why he and his family renamed the property San Rafael Ranch, he wrote, “after the saint associated with physical and spiritual healing, and began plans immediately to remake it as a Christian retreat, reclaiming it for Jesus.”

Huffines, a Texas businessman and GOP candidate for Texas comptroller, which oversees statewide financial matters, purchased the ranch with his family in 2023 under an anonymous LLC. (Read more from “Weird: Texas GOP Politician Plans Christian Retreat at Epstein’s Zorro Ranch” HERE)

Jeffrey Epstein Masterminded ‘Girls Weekends’ in Ritzy Hamptons With Weird Overnight Stays: Emails

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Hamptons are front and center in a trove of newly released Jeffrey Epstein files — with emails claiming the convicted pedo routinely paraded “the girls” to the vacation destination and organized overnight stays at his elite pals’ homes.

One email exchange praised the disgraced financier and human trafficker for organizing “girls weekends” in the ritzy enclave, with one person claiming a local nightclub maven even wanted Epstein to help organize weekly parties exclusively for “beautiful Russian girls,” documents released by the Department of Justice showed.

The latest batch of files includes dozens of emails that show Epstein’s tentacles reached deep into the beachfront destination — with one FBI document from 2020 showing someone sent a tip to the agency with claims sex trafficker had close connections in the area who would “procure underage girls for him.”

Some files in the latest batch also referred to Epstein’s grooming efforts on the young girls, which is the deliberate, calculated process where an abuser builds a relationship and trust with a child for the purpose of sexual exploitation and abuse, according to the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network, the largest anti-sexual violence organization in the country.

The disgraced financier frequently flew “the girls” to the Hamptons for trips that appear to be meant to groom the kids, according to claims in the documents. (Read more from “Jeffrey Epstein Masterminded ‘Girls Weekends’ in Ritzy Hamptons With Weird Overnight Stays: Emails” HERE)

Massie Torches AG Bondi: ‘I Have No Confidence’

/3 Comments/in , , /by

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) said Sunday he has no confidence in Attorney General Pam Bondi, escalating tensions over the Justice Department’s handling of sensitive document disclosures tied to Jeffrey Epstein.

Appearing on ABC’s This Week, Massie did not mince words when asked by host Martha Raddatz whether he still trusted Bondi to lead the department.

“I don’t think Pam Bondi has confidence in Pam Bondi,” Massie said. “She wasn’t confident enough to engage in anything but name-calling in the hearing. And so no, I don’t have confidence in her.”

The Kentucky congressman sharply criticized Bondi’s responses during a recent congressional hearing, particularly over questions surrounding document redactions. Massie said he pressed the attorney general on who made the decision to redact the name of Lesley Wexner from a key document but received no clear answer.

“When I asked her specifically who redacted Lesley Wexner’s name from the one document that mattered, she couldn’t give me an answer. She wouldn’t give me an answer,” Massie said. “But ultimately, it’s her who is responsible for the document production. According to our law, the attorney general. It’s not Todd Blanche, it’s not the people below them. You can assign tasks to people, but you can’t assign your responsibility.”

Massie framed the controversy as part of a broader battle with powerful interests he claims are aligned against him.

“This is about the Epstein class, the people who are funding the attacks against me,” he said. “They may or may not be implicated in these files, but they were certainly rubbing shoulders with the people who are in these files. They’re billionaires who are friends with these people. And that’s what I’m up against.”

New Administration People Visiting: Epstein’s Mail to Bill Gates After Trump’s 2016 Win

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Sex offender Jeffrey Epstein invited Microsoft co-founder and billionaire Bill Gates to his island, Little Saint James, saying people from the “new administration” were visiting him. The email, sent in December 2016, seemingly indicated those from Donald Trump’s team during his first term, considering he was elected as the President of the US a month before that.

“Come to visit the island. New administration people visiting,” the email read.

Trump, who became the President of the US for the second time after defeating Democrat Kamala Harris in the 2020 elections, had earlier said that he had severed ties with Jeffrey Epstein in the early 2000s. However, it cannot be ascertained whether Epstein was indeed talking about the Trump administration.

The email exchanges are part of the fresh tranche of documents associated with Epstein and released by the US Justice Department. These also come at a time when senior members of the Trump administration are facing renewed scrutiny over their links to the sex offender. Earlier this week, US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed that he had lunch with Epstein at the latter’s island in 2012, contradicting his previous claims about severing ties with the paedophile years before his conviction.

“I did have lunch with him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation,” Lutnick testified on Capitol Hill. “My wife was with me, as were my four children and nannies…We had lunch on the island. That is true. For an hour.” (Read more from “New Administration People Visiting: Epstein’s Mail to Bill Gates After Trump’s 2016 Win” HERE)

DOJ Says Epstein File Release Is Over — Hundreds of Names Revealed, Including Trump, But Millions of Pages Still Withheld

/2 Comments/in , /by

Attorney General Pam Bondi has released a list of 300 politicians, celebrities, and prominent figures named in the Jeffrey Epstein files — while simultaneously informing Congress that the Department of Justice has now fulfilled its legal obligation to disclose records and will not be releasing additional materials beyond what has already been made public.

In a letter sent to the leaders of the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche stated that the department has released all documents required under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. However, they acknowledged that significant material remains withheld under various legal privileges.

“The Department released all ‘records, documents, communications and investigative materials in the possession of the Department’ that ‘relate to’ any of nine different categories,” Bondi and Blanche wrote.

300 “Politically Exposed” Names

The newly disclosed list includes current and former political leaders, business titans, entertainers, and global figures. Among the names: President Donald Trump, former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama, former President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton, Vice President Kamala Harris, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Nancy Pelosi, Hakeem Jeffries, Prince Harry, Woody Allen, Bruce Springsteen, Bono, Beyoncé, Robert De Niro, and Bill Cosby.

The DOJ emphasized that inclusion in the files does not imply wrongdoing or direct contact with Epstein.

According to Bondi and Blanche, some individuals had “extensive direct email contact” with Epstein or his associate Ghislaine Maxwell. Others were mentioned only in passing — sometimes in media articles included within the files that had no substantive connection to Epstein’s trafficking or financial activities.

Under the law, the DOJ faced a Dec. 19 deadline to disclose Epstein-related records. Officials said a team of hundreds of lawyers reviewed approximately 6 million pages of material, ultimately releasing more than 3.5 million pages in the weeks that followed.

However, roughly 2.5 million pages remain undisclosed.

Bondi and Blanche explained that withheld materials are protected under “deliberative-process privilege, work-product privilege, and attorney-client privilege.” Additionally, victim names and personally identifiable information were redacted.

The announcement effectively signals the administration considers the disclosure process complete — even though millions of pages have not been made public.

Notably, while Bondi’s name appears at the top of the letter, it was signed only by Deputy Attorney General Blanche — a detail that has raised eyebrows among observers.

Critics argue that while the DOJ has technically complied with the statute, the decision to withhold millions of pages under privilege claims leaves lingering questions about the full scope of Epstein’s network and the government’s internal handling of the case.

For now, the administration’s message is clear: the Epstein file release is over. But with millions of pages still sealed and public scrutiny intensifying, the debate over transparency and accountability surrounding the disgraced financier is far from settled.
