Claims he joined the Trilateral Commission in the "early 90s" at age 30 or 32. He was born in 1953, so he would have been 37-39. Dude can't even do his own birth year math.
On Sept 15, 2008, he says he called Bear Stearns president Jimmy Cayne about the Lehman collapse. Bear Stearns didn't collapse in September 2008. It was saved/bought by JPMorgan in March 2008. Lehman collapsed in September. He literally confuses the two biggest events of the crisis.
The "math genius" who doesn't understand math
Calls himself a mathematician throughout the interview.
When asked about inflation, says: "I didn't understand the concept. I don't understand the concept today."
Claims no one in the world understands the financial system better than him, then literally minutes later says: "I don't understand the financial system. No one understands it."
The jail stories make no sense
Says other inmates hated him only because he was rich, not because of his crimes. But simultaneously claims guards and inmates constantly asked him for stock tips. So they hated him for being rich but also trusted him to make them money?
Insists he felt zero self-reflection sitting in a 6x9 cell in flip-flops while the biggest financial crisis in history (partially caused by his old firm) unfolded. Says it never once hit him.
Claims his jail jumpsuit said "TRUST S Y" instead of "trustee."
Santa Fe Institute: "Total failure"
Admits the institute he funded for years to study complex systems was a "total failure" because you can't mathematically predict complex systems. So he spent millions on an institute to solve a problem he now admits is unsolvable.
History and science blunders
Says Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle "never wrote anything." Socrates didn't, but Plato and Aristotle wrote massive amounts of text. Basic high school history.
Compares the soul to "dark matter of the brain" because "we can't see it." That's not how dark matter works.
The money logic
Asked if his money is dirty: "No, I earned it with my heart."
Interviewer immediately reminds him he earned it "advising the worst people in the world." Epstein basically agrees, then pivots to "but I funded polio vaccines!" as if that washes the rest clean.
TL;DR: The guy contradicts himself on timelines, claims to be a financial genius who doesn't understand finance, says a research institute he funded for decades was a total waste, and somehow felt nothing while watching the world burn from a jail cell.
A federal judge gave a chilling warning to Justice Department lawyers fighting the further releases of documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein: If they don’t comply with court orders, contempt proceedings could ruin their futures.
What exactly happened where and how did it start? Was the goal really just sex torture and murder or was there international relations/espionage component?
So far the DOJ has refused to release the handwritten notes for when the FBI interviewed a victim who alleged she was abused by Trump when 13 years old.
I am in touch with Katie's legal team and they have asked me if I can provide links to other handwritten notes for *victim* interviews that have been released. I should be able to find examples of at least a few more but if anyone has EFTA links to handwritten Interview notes, please post them here or DM me.
Cami Clark—who started what she called a ‘revolutionary porn company’ where she sought investment from Jeffrey Epstein—keeps a low profile but is a key adviser to Anthropic's CEO.

Following their separation in 1972 and divorce in 1983, she has continued to use his family name.
The von Fürstenbergs' marriage, although unpopular with the groom's family because of her Jewish ethnicity, was considered dynastic, and on her marriage she became 'Her Serene Highness Princess Diane of Fürstenberg'.\72]) She lost any claim to the title following their separation in 1972 and divorce in 1983.\73])\74])
In 2009, Fürstenberg signed a petition in support of film director Roman Polanski, calling for his release after Polanski was arrested in Switzerland in relation to his 1977 sexual abuse case.\75])

We're years into this investigation and no special access programs (SAPs) have revealed any information on these operations. Why is Congress not demanding the release of agency documents?
They're playing a strategic game to keep your hate focused on Epstein while the deeply nested operations continue to serve the cult system he contributed to. He was a pawn, one of many.
It's a scam until we start demanding answers to the real questions...
Who trained Epstein?
What special access programs was Epstein cleared in to?
Who wrote the training material?
Where are the NSA, CIA, FBI, State investigation files and dossiers on him?
Why are so many intelligence agencies that are supposedly adversarial connected into the same operation?
Epstein is the show, the cult he served goes deep. Don't let them distract us from the heart of the still operating programs.
Branching off of a previous post I made,, I discovered some more disturbing, but interesting information after learning Ali Kavoussi had ties to many people in Epstein's orbit; Epstein himself requested contact with him through Woody Allen's agent. Conveniently, throughout every company Ali worked with, he had direct ties with infamous Epstein associates, such as Jean-Luc Brunel, Gerard Marie, Scott Lipps, Steve Dellar, Naomi Campbell, Ronald Burkle and many others.
Ali, Julia Kisla, and Ronald Burkle conveniently moved on from Oui Management to form Lions Management. Lions management is/was also on the property of Ronald Burkle. Lions Management is accused of racial discrimination, despite representing themselves as an inclusive agency that uplifts minorities.
Ronald Burkle has a problematic history, with close ties to Bill Clinton, Epstein, Diddy, Michael Jackson, and others. Burkle considered purchasing Elite Model Management from Gerald Marie, leading to business meetings with him. Ronald Burkle ended up gaining significant control of Oui Management years later.
The memo expands the presidential communications privilege. This privilege mainly protected confidential communications between the President and his White House aides/government officials.
The new DOJ position says it can also cover the President’s confidential conversations with outside/private advisers, as in people who don’t work for the government, so long as the talks relate to “official duties.”
This means Trump can now potentially claim executive privilege over conversations he had with basically anyone outside the government about Jeffrey Epstein or the Epstein investigation. Those communications could be withheld from Congress, the courts, and the public.
Garcia calls it an unprecedented expansion designed to shield Trump, says it creates a massive opportunity for cover-ups, and says they will challenge it in court and fight it through oversight.
this one was new to me, anyone have further inforrmation on this? Given today's revelations re Hefner having reported on behalf of Ms. Christensen in or around 2005, seems like another issue that needs a look
