Shortly before Epstein was arrested on federal sex trafficking charges, his adviser sent him an email reporting that he had scrubbed through Trump's financial records. It's unclear why or how Epstein responded, but....interesting. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11...

This @jasonleopold.bsky.social story is really interesting. The sealed court documents that @nytimes.com received last night provide more detail on the scope of this 2007 money laundering investigation.

Here, for example, is Bear Stearns' internal record about the subpoena it received.

Epstein document dump coming later today. A federal judge has granted @nytimes.com and @wsj.com requests to unseal records from litigation involving Jeffrey Epstein and JPMorgan. We have no idea what the documents will show, but we expect to receive them this evening. Stay tuned! 🍿

The Qataris ultimately invested in several Witkoff deals.

Witkoff’s son Alex recently solicited billions of dollars from Qatar and other Gulf countries for an investment fund.

After @nytimes.com asked about it, Witkoff said it had abandoned the planned fund. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/b...

I experienced this last week & refused, saying I had never before been asked to provide the names of any analysts I was planning to quote to get a comment. Spox replied that maybe they were D donors. (In that case, it was 3 retired top military JAG officers.) I guess that was not a weird oneoff.
we wrote about this WH tactic recently. they’re asking journalists for expert source names and then using them to look up political donations in FEC records to try to discredit those sources as biased.

I had this exact same experience this morning. Same reporter as Heidi.

This is *not* normal.

I have spoken to the press on these issues for two decades. No government official has ever demanded to know my identity in order to give a comment on a story.

Federal judge tosses Trump's lawsuit against the @nytimes.com, less than four days after it was filed. The ruling calls the lawsuit "improper and impermissible." Trump is allowed to refile a new, shorter complaint if he wants.

NEW: JPMorgan, the largest US bank, enabled the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein.

The bank lent him money, created accounts for his victims, disregarded suspicious transactions and overruled employees who raised concerns.
