Epstein files release

Howard Lutnick, the billionaire businessman who serves as President Trump’s commerce secretary, once planned a trip to Jeffrey Epstein’s private island in 2012, according to documents that the Justice Department released. Lutnick previously claimed that around 2005, he and his wife had been so revolted by Epstein that they decided not to associate with him again.

Maybe that's what he told his wife.

Survivors condemn DOJ's Epstein release as a 'betrayal'​


A number of survivors of Epstein’s abuse have released a joint statement condemning the DOJ’s latest files release.

"Once again, survivors are having their names and identifying information exposed, while the men who abused us remain hidden and protected,” the statement says.

“That is outrageous. As survivors, we should never be the ones named, scrutinized, and retraumatized while Epstein’s enablers continue to benefit from secrecy.

“This is a betrayal of the very people this process is supposed to serve.”

They add the justice department can not claim to have finished releasing the files “until every legally required document is released and every abuser and enabler is fully exposed”.

DOJ believes work largely over - but it’s unlikely Maga base​

After a month of silence on the Epstein files, the Department of Justice (DOJ) now believes it has fulfilled the requirements of the law passed by congress, albeit after the deadline.

Democrats however continue to argue that the DOJ has withheld too many documents – possibly around 2.5 million – without proper justification.

The files that have been released do contain references to many public figures on this side of the Atlantic who have previously been associated with Epstein, including the former Microsoft boss, Bill Gates, who has vigorously denied one allegation of a sexual nature.

Donald Trump’s name does again appear – in one document there are a number of allegations about him from an FBI tip line, which investigators at the time deemed not credible.

When asked about the claims, the White House directed reporters to the part of the DOJ announcement which described some documents as containing “untrue and sensationalist” allegations against the president.

But while the DOJ believes its work is largely over, it’s unlikely that many in the Maga base will be content; they have long thought there was a conspiracy to protect the rich and powerful who were connected to Epstein – and even Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche acknowledged this would not end things –

There’s a hunger for information, he said, that this review would not satisfy.

Did a quick random walk through. The set of PDFs i think was organized by a first grader. Some interesting tidbits.

At one point, JE put up Attia at a NYC apartment, located at 301 East 66th street corner of 66th and 2nd Ave

Send flowers to Lesley Goff, JE's executive assistant, gets a nice thank you, Peter writes back (1/2016)

"No...thank YOU so much. See you next time, hopefully JE in town when I'm back in 2 weeks. I go into JE withdrawal when I don't see him..."

Cringe.

On the detailed list of appointments for the month of September 2018. One hour appt with Peter. Other people JE saw, met with that month. Deep;ak Chopra, Nellie Bowles, Leon Black (twice), Michael Wolff (twice), Sascha Baron Cohen, Ariane de Rothschild, Steve Bannon, Ehud Barack. David Stern, Woody Allen and Soon Yi, Tom Pritzker

One email exchange talks about "Barry" where JE asks Attia if "Barry" is gay. JE also asks if Attia has heard back from "Barry."

Most extensive email exchange occurs during June 2015 -- Peter has a manifesto he shares with JE. it is EFTA02353720.pdf

Looks like Peter Attia is all over the files. I thought something was off about him after it came out that he was close friends with Kevin Spacey.

I used to follow a lot of his health info/podcasts.

Yep, I'm a subscriber.
Cancelling today.


Edit:
Unfortunately, you have to be weary of super high functioning people, including doctors. There was a highly respected ER doc out of NY. He did a bunch of podcasts, wrote great papers, spoke at conferences. I booked to go to a conference in Australia only because he was going to be there. When I got to the conference I was disappointed as he cancelled.

Turns out a patient accused him of masturbating on her while she was sedated. Not to be rude, but this patient was not what most would consider attractive. I felt bad for him and assumed it was a shake down for money. Then another guy I worked with said in residency that he ended up on a double date with this guy and his wife, and he thinks he did it. Sure enough, they found his semen on her hospital gown. He went to prison.

Wrote a good book though.

Not that this is impressive.

As a nation, we need to set political differences aside and castigate these guys. Enough is enough.

Everyone is worried about someone who didn't molest kids being on the list. Well, I look at it similar to the immigration issue. There are people that are so anti-immigration that they don't care if the immigrant has been here 20 years and is good, they broke the law and they want them gone.

I don't care if you didn't molest kids. If you were associated with a known molester because you thought it could benefit you I'm not the least bit worried that your life gets screwed up for it if that is what it takes to get the dirty ones.

As I've said all along, fry them all.

I know we’ve had some call for discussion but this right here is what makes it hard for me. Maybe that makes you guys a better person.

But you knew this guy was all over and in the Epstein saga. There’s not one decent thing about him. He cheated on all 3 of his wives and kids mothers. One we know was within 6 months of a child’s birth. He defrauded kids w cancer for goodness sake.

You say fry em all but vote for the most lecherous of them all. You hoisted this filth upon us.
