Jeffrey Epstein

Epstein financiers
Key Individuals and Entities
  • Leslie Wexner: The billionaire founder of L Brands (which owned Victoria's Secret) was Epstein's primary client for many years. Wexner granted Epstein broad powers over his finances, philanthropy, and private life. Epstein reportedly made more than $200 million from this business relationship, which ended around 2007/2008.
  • Leon Black: The co-founder of Apollo Global Management maintained a business relationship with Epstein after his 2008 conviction, paying him millions in fees for tax and estate planning advice between 2012 and 2017. Black reportedly paid Epstein around $170 million in total.
  • Glenn Dubin: The hedge fund manager and co-founder of Highbridge Capital Management was another client. Epstein received a $15 million fee for facilitating the sale of a stake in Dubin's fund to JPMorgan.
    • Peter Thiel: The billionaire investor and tech entrepreneur met with Epstein multiple times, and Epstein invested in funds associated with Thiel, including Founders Fund and Valar Ventures. Thiel has stated he regrets the association.

Note 1: Seems Epstein was very financially demanding, for what was described as a financial advisor: https://nypost.com/2025/10/18/us-ne...nt-nasty-emails-to-apollo-founder-leon-black/
Note 2: WRT bannon: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com...ein-rehab-his-image/articleshow/125358553.cms

Bannon financiers:
Key financiers
  • Robert Mercer: A wealthy hedge fund manager who provided millions of dollars to support Breitbart News and Bannon's political activities.
  • Guo Wengui: An exiled Chinese billionaire who was a Bannon ally and was called a "financier" by the press in 2022, the same year he filed for bankruptcy.
  • Andrew Badolato: A Florida-based financier who was a co-defendant with Bannon in the "We Build the Wall" case, charged with defrauding donors.

Note 1: Mercer's has indirect links to Thiel too: https://www.propublica.org/article/...s-into-a-5-billion-dollar-tax-free-piggy-bank
Note 2: Mercer backed Cambridge Analytica and CNBC had some investigative reporting: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/09/15/rob...dark-money-gop-fund-during-2020-election.html

Note Guo is interesting.. first he seems to to want to overthrow china's CCP but at the same time has links to china's intelligence services:
After his arrival in the US in 2017, Guo's outspoken opposition to China's rulers inspired several ventures with Bannon.
They appeared frequently together in online videos, and in 2020 they launched a campaign called the New Federal State of China, with the goal of overthrowing the Chinese Communist Party.

So if Epstein and Bannon were in cahoots for both the 2016 trump election and the 2016/19 brexit, there's money flowing from crime and possibly the Chinese state.

The question is will the Epstein files expose a financing picture driven by crime and foreign states of China and Russia that focuses on removing democracy?
 

such an amount of information
 
Why isn't this headline news? Epstein was colluding Democrats to destroy him.

No one had any dirt on Trump, so they tried to fabricate it over and over. This is why he's calling it a hoax

Pull the other one it’s got bubba attached.

The whole epstein files are likely to have a large selection of political partisans (irrespective of party). It will be interesting across the board.
 
I note that now that there are apparently more than enough GOP members to pass the vote so that all epstein docs are made public, Trump has now stated that GOP members should vote for it. Clearly so that when they do, he and the one with the cruifix will spin it that it was his idea and that the GOP are following his orders !

Kash Patel has probably redacted any and all mention of Trump in the files by now.
 
Got to say well done to all that this thread has lasted 10 pages in GD
Don't worry.. once they are released.. I suspect SC inbound with additional rules and no links to dodgy photos.

He probably has enough dirty on people to become Trump/Republican's friends for many years to come, those unreacted files aren't going anywhere soon as they're too good a currency of leverage.

It would be funny if the files had hashes.. and if you substitute names of senior politicians into those redacted spaces, the hashes match identifying the redacted name.

I suspect that a lot of the 'redacting' is incineration. Can't redact something that doesn't exist, so all the 1980-2000s was still on physical media in forms of photos, VHS, floppies, Zip disks etc.

I genuinely think that the Democrats are just hoping way to hard for a huge smoking gun that will never come. Americans don't give a crap he was mates with a pedo. He'll roll out the fake news snorefest and by next week it will be forgotten by his base. The usual YouTube dems will scream about for weeks like they're winning a huge victory and no one outside that bubble will ever hear about it or care. This is such a non starter.

I don't think they expect the MAGA base to stop supporting Trump. I'd imagine the push to have them released (and it be damaging to Trump in some way) is more about influencing less partisan swing voters, the demographic that typically decides elections.

No one is expecting to see anything incriminating Trump being left in these files. The problem he has though is that a huge % of his base are obsessed with this story and if they think they aren't getting the full account then it will continue to roll on and on. MAGA is full of CT nut jobs and they don't just give up because Trump or his lackeys say there is nothing to see in the redacted pages or missing pages and if there are missing pages we will know because his DOJ leaders aren't the only ones that have seen these documents. Democrats aren't expecting a smoking gun, they are just enjoying seeing Trump digging himself ever deeper in the Epstein hole that he helped create.
 
Maybe but if anything the last election proved similarly that those people don't care either. He's a proven liar, criminal, sex pest etc etc. That should have been enough but if you stoke the racism immigrant fire, they will just vote for the idiot who screams the loudest.

We aren't far away from the same thing with the BNP.... Sorry I mean Reform.

I guess all I'm suggesting is that this is boring to hear about constantly as it won't amount to anything.. They should be focusing on his many millions of financial and political failings rather than trying to shame the unshameable man.
