Trump's Top Ally Tries Laughing Off Epstein Files

New documents prove Howard Lutnick and Jeffrey Epstein were business partners years after he claimed to cut him off.

If I had a penny for every single time a Trump administration official was caught lying about their connection to Jeffrey Epstein, I would only have about 12 pennies. Which isn’t a lot, but that is still way too many pennies for a topic like this.

For example, Elon Musk claimed that Epstein wanted him to visit the island but he rejected the offer. The files proved that was a lie. Musk was trying to go to the island, but Epstein was the one who ghosted him. The same thing goes for Donald Trump, who has repeatedly lied about his connection to Jeffrey Epstein. Even JD Vance’s mentor, Peter Thiel, was exposed in these new files.

But the big story breaking right now is Howard Lutnick.

Howard Lutnick is Donald Trump’s Commerce Secretary. He has claimed for years that he cut Jeffrey Epstein off in 2005 after a creepy encounter involving a massage table. He told the New York Post that he and his wife decided they would never be in the room with “that disgusting person” ever again.

We now know that was a complete lie.

New documents show that Howard Lutnick and Jeffrey Epstein were starting a business venture together a decade and a half ago in 2012. Lutnick and Epstein each signed on behalf of limited liability companies to acquire stakes in an advertising technology company called Adfin. Their signatures appear on neighboring pages in the contract.

This was years after Lutnick claimed he cut Epstein off.

It gets worse. Emails show they arranged calls and planned to have drinks in 2011. Lutnick was invited for lunch on December 24, 2012. Later, Epstein’s assistant wrote to Lutnick on behalf of Epstein saying it was nice seeing him.

It is worth pointing out that Lutnick was laughing about a month ago when Donald Trump called the Jeffrey Epstein files a hoax. A reporter asked Trump if he was holding a meeting to discuss the Epstein situation. While Trump stumbled through a denial, Howard Lutnick was in the background laughing his ass off.

He is laughing at the struggle of survivors. He is laughing at the need for accountability. But he knew more than we thought he knew

In the replies to the video, Republican Representative Thomas Massie put the eyeball emoji. Massie points out that it is “all one big club, and you ain’t in it”.

There is another penny to add to the jar. The Secretary of the Navy was also found to be in the files. Literally every “fat cat” is in the files.

Zero credit to Howard Lutnick. Zero credit to Donald Trump who has fought tooth and nail to hide these files because of his involvement within them. The same administration that lies about everything from the economy to health care is now trying to say Lutnick “didn’t know” who he was doing business with.

I don’t believe it.

If you believe in the work I am doing here, and you want to help sustain this work as we move through what lies ahead, becoming a paid subscriber is one meaningful way to do that.

More than anything, thank you to everyone who has supported my efforts, then and now, and who believes this fight is still worth fighting.

We are winning this fight now. We will win this fight in the future. We will take our country back.
