CIA director Burns met with Epstein at least three times in 2014, while Burns was Obama’s deputy secretary of state. They first met in Washington and then Mr. Burns twice visited Epstein’s personal townhouse in Manhattan for evening appointments. A CIA spokeswoman waved it off: “The director did not know anything about him, other than that he was introduced as an expert in the financial services sector and offered general advice on [Burns’} transition to the private sector. They had no relationship.”
Makes sense. Seek professional advice from a notorious convicted pedophile. Multiple times. At night.
Reuters ran a story yesterday headlined, “Judge Says JPMorgan Could Be Liable for Epstein Sex Trafficking if Staley Knew About It.”
Ruh-roh, Scooby.
The three U.S. Virgin Islands cases include accusations that Epstein and one of JPMorgan’s top bosses Jes Staley, 66, swapped sexually suggestive messages about young women, including an email where Staley said: “That was fun. Say hi to Snow White.”
The U.S.’s largest bank had moved to dismiss the cases arguing that the bank had no relationship with the victims. But yesterday the judge disagreed, writing “If the allegations in plaintiffs’ complaints are taken as true, Mr. Staley had actual first-hand knowledge that Epstein conducted a sex-trafficking venture.”
Uh oh. Worse, documents show Mr. Staley was a regular guest at Epstein’s sex island.
All three lawsuits, including one brought by the U.S. Virgin Islands, are scheduled for trial this year. Stay tuned.
I don't know if I want to get my hands dirty with it, but I know things that would make national news.
People are diddling kids FAR more than is realized. There's charities that masquerade as helping children. Nope. Donors are just fucking orphans. No joke.
This is why I don't get hung up about a Bud Light can. This shit is faaaaaaar worse than you guys know. Maybe in my 50's I blow the whistle, but it ain't worth it now.

No it wouldn't.
100% would. It involves Senators and a bunch of IL government. Like a bunch. I have no interest in being involved even though it's sick. I know the powers that be will destroy my life. I enjoy my life currently. They know it too. After Snowden or Assange why in the flying fuck would you want to be a whistle blower?
Not saying I'll take it to my grave, but my plan is to gain leverage long term. I've already been burned by a rather large government fuck up that was 100% true. I need more ammo. And I'm always working on getting more. You need a slam dunk, not a layup if you're dealing with government. Resistance takes time. It's not overnight even though I know what I know. I also don't have attorneys on call to handle libel and slander cases. Or the money. It's not a sword I'm willing to die upon at this stage of life.

Ex Barclays boss Jes Staley is accused of abusing girls during a visit to Jeffrey Epstein’s US Virgin Island retreat after the pedophile financier told him to ‘do what he wanted’, lawsuit claims
... The ruling instead revealed that Staley was alleged to have 'used aggressive force in his sexual assault of [anonymous victim 'JPM Jane Doe'] and informed [her] that he had Epstein's permission to do what he wanted to her'.
Victims claim Epstein agreed to bring valuable clients to JPMorgan in exchange for Staley using his influence with the bank to make Epstein 'untouchable'.
Staley has been accused of having 'observed victims personally' and 'visited young girls at Epstein's apartments', exchanging some 1,200 emails with Epstein from 2008 to 2012, said to have included pictures of young women in 'seductive' poses. ...
Lawsuits brought against JPMorgan allege that Staley had first-hand knowledge of Epstein's operation - and now claim his direct involvement.
Suits brought by the US Virgin Islands and an accuser of Epstein also allege that JPMorgan and Deutsche Bank knew about and benefitted from Epstein's sex trafficking. ...
The suits against the banks claim that they let Epstein withdraw cash to pay women involved in his trafficking ring and that they failed to conduct due diligence in reporting.
Palm Beach police started investigating the billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein in 2005 over allegations he had sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl.
Epstein pleaded guilty and was convicted in 2008 of procuring a child for prostitution and soliciting a prostitute.

Because it's the right thing to do. And if you don't you have helped to harm children. I'm not being figurative.
The Wall Street Journal has released the second part of its Jeffrey Epstein document dump and Bill Gates does not look good.
Neither does Bill Clinton’s former Treasury Secretary and onetime Harvard University president Larry Summers.
It also spells doom for LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, a major Democrat donor and anti-Trump activist.
Hoffman visited Epstein’s private island in the Caribbean, known by locals as “Pedophile Island,” and was scheduled to stay over at his Manhattan “House of Horrors” townhouse in 2014.
Predictably, Hoffman has tried to downplay his actions.
He told the Journal that “he met with Epstein to raise funds for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and that he regrets interacting with Epstein after his conviction.” ...
Among the new details released by The WSJ:
Mr. Summers continued to meet with Epstein and seek his help years after Harvard decided it would no longer accept his donations.
Reid Hoffman, a billionaire venture capitalist and LinkedIn co-founder, visited Epstein’s private island in the Caribbean and was scheduled to stay over at his Manhattan townhouse in 2014.
Woody Allen, the Oscar-winning movie director, attended dozens of dinners with his wife, Soon-Yi Previn, at Epstein’s mansion and invited Epstein to film screenings.
Ehud Barak, the former Israeli prime minister, visited Epstein dozens of times and accepted flights on Epstein’s private jet while visiting his mansions in Florida and New York.
Leon Black, the billionaire co-founder of private-equity giant Apollo Global Management, scheduled more than 100 meetings with Epstein from 2013 to 2017.
I can't risk my family. You understand that's how they gain leverage. My kids and family come first.

Oh, Epstein was an FBI Informant. Lookee Loo.
Anti-Trump activist Reid Hoffman, the billionaire co-founder of LinkedIn, has admitted to visiting deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s notorious “Pedophile Island.”
Epstein’s private island, Little St. James in the U.S. Virgins Islands, has been cited by several victims as a key location where sex abuse took place.
The secluded location became known by locals and authorities as “Pedophile Island” due to the number of underage girls that were seen coming and going from there.
Victims have testified that Epstein and his powerful guests would abuse underage girls on the island, out of view of the authorities.
As Slay News reported earlier, new documents have emerged that show Hoffman, who reportedly boasts a net worth of $2 billion, met with Epstein after he was convicted and jailed for child sex abuse charges.
Government investigators are reporting that Google co-founder Larry Page has disappeared after a subpoena was issued for his testimony in a Jeffrey Epstein underage trafficking case.
Authorities in the U.S. Virgin Islands issued subpoenas against Page and Google parent company Alphabet in the lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase & Co. bank.
The lawsuit accuses JPMorgan, America’s largest bank, of playing a role in Epstein’s international child sex trafficking operation.
However, a new legal filing reveals that investigators have been unable to locate Page since the subpoena was issued.

Very little of this is new information.
e.g., I was tweeting CNBC pundits in 2017 and after about, for example, Larry Summers’ ridiculously close ties to Epstein. People who followed me.
They’d have Summers on frequently for a tongue-bath. Bloomberg still does, almost daily. No one ever has asked about Epstein.
They all just don’t care. No spines (Ben Hunt told Carl Quintanilla to grow one).
The media is completely com…

In shocking scenes, an investor has been arrested for blasting Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates during a Berkshire Hathaway shareholders’ meeting.
The investor was Pete Flaherty, the chairman and CEO of the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC).
Flaherty and NLPC have been campaigning for Berkshire Hathaway to have a separate CEO and chairman.
Both of those roles are currently occupied by Gates’s close friend and fellow multi-billionaire Warren Buffett.
During the shareholders’ meeting on Saturday, Flaherty questioned the political motivations of Buffett, a Democrat.
While addressing other shareholders at the meeting, Flaherty called into question the issue of having one person as chairman and CEO by highlighting Buffett’s links to Bill Gates.
He continued by telling the crowd that “we all know how much Bill Gates cares about children ” because he “traveled with Jeffrey Epstein.”
Flaherty’s microphone was then cut off and he was arrested and removed from the meeting by force in front of stunned investors.
Flaherty was arrested and charged with criminal trespassing by police in Omaha, Nebraska, even though his name was on the list of attendees for the Berkshire Hathaway shareholder meeting.
“I apparently touched the third rail of billionaire politics when I mentioned Jeffrey Epstein’s name,” Flaherty told The Daily Signal on Monday.
“I’ve been involved in shareholder activism for 19 years, and I have never before had my mic cut and I was never before arrested.”
Billionaire Who Funded E. Jean Carroll’s Lawsuit Against Trump Visited Epstein’s Island
Reid Hoffman also met with sex trafficker on at least two other occasions.
I don't know about that. Having a lot of money depends on having a public identity.

Maybe you can name the Rothschild's and list their residences then?
So here is the hypothesis-
1) A substantial fraction of global elites (idle rich) have been consumed by novelty seeking behaviors. The “new wealth” idle rich, who can virtually satisfy any whims they may have with little or no consequence, have an insatiable and escalating need to be entertained.
2) Of these, as has often happened within idle elites throughout history, some have become sex addicts, constantly seeking additional stimulation and novelty, in many cases manifesting as sexual paraphilias . For example, see this article concerning prostitution during the most recent WEF meeting in Davos. See also the case of Mr. Jeffrey Epstein, his clientele, and the notorious “Lolita express” and “pedo island”.

In spite of all odds, the story about deepstate pedophile puppet Jeffrey Epstein continues to slowly progress toward justice.

On Thursday, the Wall Street Journal ran a story headlined, “Deutsche Bank to Pay $75 Million to Settle Jeffrey Epstein Accusers’ Suit.” The subheadline explained, “A civil complaint alleged the financial institution facilitated the disgraced financier’s sex-trafficking ring.”
On behalf of a class of similarly-situated victims, a Jane Doe plaintiff sued Deutsche Bank, alleging the financial giant did business with Epstein for five years despite knowing he was using money in his bank accounts to further his disgusting sex-trafficking activities.
The Doe plaintiff alleged she was sexually abused by Epstein himself, as well as trafficked to his friends for fifteen years between 2003 and 2018, and occasionally paid for sex acts. The lawsuit alleged that Deutsche Bank ignored many red flags, including payments to many young women. The settlement is expected to compensate dozens of victims.
The plaintiffs’ lawyers, from the law firms Boies Schiller Flexner and Edwards Pottinger, said on Wednesday they believed the $75 million was the largest sex-trafficking settlement involving a banking institution in history. “This groundbreaking settlement is the culmination of two law firms conducting more than a decade-long investigation to hold one of Epstein’s financial banking partners responsible for the role it played in facilitating his trafficking organization,” the lawyers said in a joint statement.
The civil suit in the Virgin Islands — not the one filed by the district attorney — is being handled by the same two law firms. They just got a huge amount of financial fuel for the war chest.

Among the bones broken in Epstein’s neck was the hyoid bone, which in men is near the Adam’s apple. These breaks can occur in those who hang themselves, particularly if they are older, according to forensics experts and studies on the subject.
But they are more common in victims of homicide by strangulation.
Even Jonathan L. Arden, president of the National Association of Medical Examiners, admitted that a hyoid break is more commonly associated with homicidal strangulation than suicidal hanging.
