Epstein watchers! Prepare for more disclosures. Yesterday, a pair of articles painted a very provocative picture. The first ran in Politico, simply headlined “Epstein files land on Capitol Hill.” The sub-headline explained, “Now comes the waiting game as congressional Republicans and the DOJ coordinate on redactions.”
I find it simply incredible how the Epstein scandal has, within a couple months, managed to captivate nearly everyone’s attention. Before Trump’s return, it was mostly a MAGA issue. Now, even Democrats perch on their seats’ edges, obsessively rereading Ghislaine Maxwell’s interview transcript, and waiting impatiently for the next episode to drop.
“The Epstein saga,” Politico drily noted, “has brought together strange bedfellows in Congress.”
One wonders how this could’ve happened accidentally.
Anyway, earlier this month James Comer (R-Ky.), chair of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, subpoenaed Epstein records from DOJ, and DOJ promptly responded, delivering a tranche of records now requiring redaction to remove victims’ identifying information and XXX CSAM content. The Committee has promised to promptly release them once redactions have been made. ...
The second, and arguably even more interesting story appeared in yesterday’s Washington Post, headlined “House Oversight subpoenas Epstein estate, including for any ‘client list.’” The sub-headline explained, “Comer requested ‘any document or record that could be reasonably construed to be a potential list of clients involved in sex, sex acts or sex trafficking” facilitated by Epstein.’”
Now, in 2025, everybody is demanding to see that client list. Last year, Democrats called it a conspiracy theory. Be honest— did you ever see this turnaround coming?
The WaPo article described a new subpoena. This one is directed to Epstein’s estate lawyers, and is due by September 8th. One suspects the international man of mystery’s lawyers might not be as helpful or forthcoming as the DOJ has been. We’ll see.
In addition to any ‘client lists,’ among other things, the Committee demanded that Epstein’s estate attorneys cough up the leather-bound “wishes book” that Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly compiled for Jeffrey’s 50th birthday party. Comer also requested all nondisclosure agreements, the addresses and contacts in Epstein’s “Black Book,” flight logs, bank statements, the September 2007 non-prosecution agreement, and all video and CCTV footage from the plane and Epstein’s various residences.
All those requested documents are potentially explosive.
A dramatic sense of mounting inevitability suffuses the Epstein scandal. Not that long ago, it was the exclusive jurisdiction of conservative firebrands. Now, like an oil slick slowly spreading around a tanker collision, it is oozing far beyond the MAGA perimeter. The long-dormant story now hogs the headlines, soaks social media, and percolates throughout the podcast communities.
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) has announced that the panel is escalating its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, issuing a subpoena to the late financier’s estate and demanding extensive records.
Epstein’s estate must hand over multiple documents, including sex trafficker’s call logs and the elusive “client list,” by September 8.
In a Monday letter to attorneys representing Epstein’s estate, Comer outlined the scope of the inquiry:
“The Committee on Oversight and Government Reform is reviewing the possible mismanagement of the federal government’s investigation of Mr. Jeffrey Epstein and Ms. Ghislaine Maxwell, the circumstances and subsequent investigations of Mr. Epstein’s death, the operation of sex-trafficking rings and ways for the federal government to effectively combat them, and potential violations of ethics rules related to elected officials.” ...
The subpoena demands a wide array of materials, including:
• Epstein’s will
• Financial transactions
• Call and visitor logs
• All entries in a book compiled by Maxwell for Epstein’s 50th birthday
• “Any document or record that could reasonably be construed to be a potential list of clients involved in sex, sex acts, or sex trafficking facilitated by Mr. Jeffrey Epstein.” ...
With the subpoena of Epstein’s estate, the committee is demanding access to records that could finally shed light on the financier’s network, his associates, and the failures that allowed him to operate for years.

There are several connections between Dubin and Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein invested millions in Dubin's hedge fund and helped JPMorgan acquire Dubin's firm. Epstein had dated Dubin's wife, Eva Andersson, for nearly a decade starting in the 1980s and the Dubins continued to maintain a friendship with Epstein, including after Epstein's arrest for sex trafficking in 2006. In testimony in Virginia Giuffre's 2015 civil suit against Ghislaine Maxwell, Giuffre testified that Maxwell instructed her to "have sex with Glenn Dubin" and others.
In 1987, he met Jeffrey Epstein through a British defense contractor named Douglas Leese...
Leese told Hoffenberg about Epstein: "The guy's a genius, he's great at selling securities. And he has no moral compass." ...
During this period, Hoffenberg and Epstein worked closely together and traveled everywhere on Hoffenberg's private jet. Hoffenberg began using Towers Financial funds to pay off earlier investors and pay for a lavish lifestyle ...
In court documents, Hoffenberg claimed that Epstein was intimately involved in the Ponzi scheme. Epstein left Towers Financial before it collapsed and was never charged for being involved with the massive investor fraud committed. ...
In 2016, Hoffenberg and some of his victims sued Epstein, seeking restitution. He asserted in court that Epstein had been intimately involved in Tower's financial practices and called Epstein the "architect of the scam". In July 2019, following Epstein's arrest on charges of sex trafficking of minors and conspiracy to commit sex trafficking, Hoffenberg again claimed that Epstein was his "uncharged co-conspirator" in the Ponzi scheme.
"In addition to constantly finding underage girls to satisfy their personal desires, Epstein and Maxwell also got girls for Epstein's friends and acquaintances. Epstein specifically told me that the reason for him doing this was so that they would "owe him," they would "be in his pocket," and he would "have something on them." I understood that Epstein thought he could get leniency if he was ever caught doing anything illegal, or that he could escape trouble altogether."
Roberts submitted her declaration in support of a motion to be added as a plaintiff in a suit (ongoing, as of this writing) that sought to overturn a non-prosecution agreement that Jeffrey Epstein would reach with the government. Roberts was seeking to join a case brought against the government by two other victims, but a judge denied her motion in April of 2015, explaining that the case had already been pending for several years, and it was unnecessary to add an additional plaintiff.
For some reason, it's labelled "The Valencia Specialists" now.
For some reason, it's labelled "The Valencia Specialists" now. Seems to be some kind of real estate company. And you can't even do the street view. See how the blue line turns at Travers Way? Huh.




GHISLAINE MAXWELL: That's true and I did
5 speak to him and I did ask him if -- oh, and did tell
6 him that I would be very keen to talk to anyone,
7 because no one from the government, at any time, ever
8 in the -- since the inception of the case, so dating
9 back to the early 2000s, has ever spoken to me, and
10 indeed, I believe ever reached out to me at any time
11 to even speak to me. And that includes up to when I
12 was indicted and prosecuted.
18 TODD BLANCHE: Do you know what kind of
19 work Mr. Epstein was doing for Mr. Black over the
20 years?
21 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Same as what he did
22 for Wexner.
The review conducted by Dechert LLP was released on January 25, 2021. It showed that Black had paid Epstein around $158 million from 2012 through 2017 for financial services.[42] Using Epstein's tax avoidance strategies, Black saved at least $1.3 billion in taxes.
Our buddy Benjamin Fulford's take on the real Jizzlaine rather than the Jizzlaine Actress Lite they are trying to flog.
Having read a lot of the first transcript, my conclusion is that Ghislaine is a bullshitter.
First she talks about how she left England partly to escape continuously working on her father's businesses. Then she talks about how after it came out that her father Robert Maxwell defrauded one of his company's pension funds of 100M pounds, she denied ever having anything to do with his businesses.
Also, she admits hiring "masseuses" for Epstein, and knew that he was sexually abusing them, but says the girls all looked 18 to her. She never once asked for ID.
2 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I've never recruited a
3 masseuse from Mar-a-Lago for that, as far as I
4 remember. I can't ever recollect doing that.
7 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: So I -- I just -- I
8 think it's really helpful to understand a few things
9 that has been missed in this whole mishigas.
7 And he started doing testosterone and that
8 altered his character. And I believe that started in
9 the late '90s. And I believe that the FBI has his
10 medical records and you may see that on his medical
11 records. Yes.

15 GHISLAINE MAXWELL:
16 The origin of this story, I believe,
17 begins -- or it has a beginning in 2009, and then it
18 has a prequel but we have to start in 2009.
19 In 2009, there is -- Epstein is, I think,
20 out of jail, and there are civil suits taking place.
21 Many of these are coming out of a disgraced law firm,
22 Rothstein Adler -- Rothstein, Rosenfeldt & Adler.
23 At that law firm is a lawyer who started
24 there in April, May, 2009, called Brad Edwards. In
25 2009, allegedly the FBI gets a call in October of
1 2009 from Brad Edwards, and he allegedly tells them
2 that he has come across a piece of evidence that
3 belongs to Epstein, that contains a list of all of
4 his clients and victims, underage girls, massage
5 therapists, and his -- and the men who are having sex
6 with them. And he becomes -- he, Brad Edwards
7 becomes a cooperating witness -- cooperating --
8 LEAH SAFFIAN: Confidential.
9 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: -- confidential
10 informant, sorry. Confidential informant for them.
11 And in a sting operation obtains the list
12 from a former butler of Epstein's called Alfredo
13 Rodriguez. And it becomes evidence in the civil
14 suit.
22 TODD BLANCHE: After Mr. Epstein was
23 charged, did you have conversations with him about
24 the investigation?
25 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: He never talked to me
1 about it.
2 TODD BLANCHE: Did you --
3 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I mean, I can't --
4 let's put it this way. If he did, I have no
5 recollection of it. I mean, I'm sure he must have
6 said, this is all -- whatever he said or it's nothing
7 or whatever.
8 I mean, I just don't have any -- I just
9 don't have any memory. I mean, I just -- I was with
10 Ted. My -- I was like gone. I mean, plus I just
11 didn't want to know either, I suppose.
18 Were there any international businessmen
19 or politicians that had a very close relationship or
20 a close relationship with Mr. Epstein, that we
21 haven't already talked about?
22 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Off the top of my,
23 head, I can think of Ehud Barak.
24 TODD BLANCHE: You said that Mr. Epstein
25 at some point in the mid to late '90s he started
1 taking testosterone. Did you ever know him to take
2 any other drugs?
3 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: No. I mean, he took
4 pills for his heart, I think, but I don't -- no
5 other -- no substances.
21 TODD BLANCHE: I think you said this in an
22 interview, but if I'm wrong forgive me. Do you have
23 a view of Mr. Epstein of whether he committed suicide
24 or whether something else happened?
25 DAVID MARKUS: Can we take a break?
1 TODD BLANCHE: Want to take a break?
2 DAVID MARKUS: Yeah, sure.
3 TODD BLANCHE: Yeah. We can take a break.
4 Yeah. Sure. Actually, it's a good time to take a
5 break anyway, because it's to be the last one of the
6 day.
7 SPENCER HORN: All right. So we're going
8 to take a break at -- it's 2:53, Thursday, July 24th.
9 (Off the record at 2:53 p.m.)
10 SPENCER HORN: We are continuing with the
11 recorded proffer of Ms. Maxwell. The time is now
12 3:10 p.m., Thursday, July 24th.
13 TODD BLANCHE: My colleagues alerted me to
14 a couple questions I think I may have forgotten to
15 ask you. One is -- sorry, I'm just going through my
16 notes.
17 Well, we talked few minutes ago about this
18 birthday book that there's press about. ...
10 DIEGO PESTANA: You mentioned Ehud Barak.
11 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Yes.
12 DIEGO PESTANA: What was his involvement?
13 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: This would've been in
14 the later 2000's. So I do not know how they met, but
15 I do know that they -- I don't know if friendly would
16 be the right word. I don't know that, but I know
17 that they saw each other and only because my
18 father -- you know, anything that touches Israel or
19 the state of Israel, I'm always interested in,
20 because my father loved Israel and so I pay attention
21 to it and we have ties to, you know, to Israel.
22 TODD BLANCHE: When you said it was later
23 though --
24 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Ties meaning friends
25 and family relations.
1 TODD BLANCHE: Was the Prime Minis- was
2 Mr. Barak, Prime Minister Barak, do you know what the
3 nature of his relationship was with Mr. Epstein?
4 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I don't.
5 TODD BLANCHE: Do you know -- were you
6 ever with them together?
7 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I think I met -- I
8 have a memory of meeting Ehud, but I don't know if he
9 was with Epstein or -- I don't remember.
4 there's SDNY investigation about that. Do you -- so
5 you think he was -- he did not die by suicide, given
6 all the things we just talked about.
7 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I do not believe he
8 died by suicide, no.
9 TODD BLANCHE: And do you believe that --
10 do you have any speculation or view of who killed
11 him?
12 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I -- no, I don't.
14 TODD BLANCHE: Okay. So I want to talk
15 about -- we talked a little bit yesterday about the
16 financial part of your relationship with Mr. Epstein,
17 kind of being on payroll, for lack of a better word,
18 for many, many years, starting around $25,000 and
19 ending up at around $250,000 per year.
20 There's -- as you know, from your trial,
21 there's banking information that shows a ton of money
22 being sent to you from Mr. Epstein over the years.
23 And I think totaling something like
24 $30 million, something like this. What's -- what's
25 the -- why was that money sent to you? Like, what
1 was that for?
2 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Well, first of all, I
3 don't -- I dispute the characterization that the
4 money was sent to me.
5 TODD BLANCHE: Okay. So tell me what -- I
6 am stuck with the witnesses at trial and what was
7 said at trial on that issue. So what -- what -- what
8 is the -- what do you dispute about that?
9 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Well, I believe -- I
10 don't have full recollection. I'm not even sure I
11 ever saw what they accused me of, but my belief is
12 that that money also contained money that was for a
13 helicopter, for instance, that I never owned and I --
14 was never mine. And --
15 DAVID MARKUS: In other words, money was
16 sent to you that you then used to purchase things
17 or...
18 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: Well, I'm not even
19 sure that I purchased it. So the accounts -- those
20 accounts would be controlled by his accountants.
23 Henry and he had -- he was --I don't know if then he
24 was at the -- in the Council of Foreign Relations,
11 TODD BLANCHE: Okay. So you -- when
12 the -- just still stay -- staying on your
13 relationship with -- sorry, the -- your association
14 with the Clintons.
15 You were part of the ramp up or the
16 startup of the Clinton Global Initiative --
17 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I was.
18 TODD BLANCHE: -- and helping them in
19 supporting that effort.
20 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I -- I would say very
21 central to that, yes.
17 TODD BLANCHE: I understand.
18 George Soros?
19 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I don't think he knew
20 him. I did, but I don't think he did. I don't
21 think.
22 TODD BLANCHE: How did you know Mr. Soros?
23 GHISLAINE MAXWELL: I was friends with his
24 kids.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: The Jeffrey Epstein Client List is now delayed until at least Jan. 22 after the court grants Jane Doe 107’s request for a 30-day extension claiming a "risk of physical harm in her country."
Yikes. It may never come out. Expect more of this.https://x.com/RudyGiuliani/status/1742380130486321587?s=20
Can't be Gislaine, she's in prison. Who? I'd say Kamala, but she's in DC.
