The new tranche of documents includes exchanges between Epstein and billionaire Elon Musk, who emails show had been in touch with Epstein about visiting his private island in 2012 and again over the holidays in 2013. The two emailed in November 2012 about Musk visiting Epstein’s island, with Musk asking Epstein, “What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?” It’s unclear if the visit ever happened, but Musk then emailed Epstein in 2013 that he would be in the St. Bart’s area over the holidays. He asked if there would be “a good time to visit,” to which Epstein responded he would send his helicopter to pick up Musk. The visit did not work out, with Musk later emailing he had to stay in New York and was “disappointed” because he “was really looking forward to finally spending some time together with just fun as the agenda.” The billionaire has publicly claimed he “refused” to visit the island. Other emails suggest the two met later in 2013 at SpaceX, with Epstein thanking him “for the tour” and saying Musk would have enjoyed being at Epstein’s island over the holidays. In another email from 2013, Epstein asked if Musk could attend a dinner in April 2013. ​They also spoke socially at the time, an email exchange about Musk’s sleep habits indicates. The two appeared to continue to meet as the years went by: A 2015 email from Emerati businessman Sultan Bin Sulayem asked Epstein if he “had your dinner with Elon Musk,” and in a 2017 email, attorney Jack Goldberger asked Epstein if he “[got] past” talking about “[one] way trips to Mars with Musk to ask him about his cars.” The Tesla CEO has previously been reported to have associated with Epstein, but has never been accused of any wrongdoing. In posts on X on Saturday, Musk claimed he had “very little correspondence” with Epstein and wrote on X he “declined repeated invitations” to go to Epstein’s island, and more broadly called for those who committed “heinous crimes” in connection with Epstein to be prosecuted, or else “this is all performative. Nothing but a distraction.”

This is where I'm having trouble. What do these documents prove except that Musk and Epstein had some contact? By what process of divination can I ascertain Musk's involvement?

It seems, alas, that even these 20 thousand documents might not be sufficient. Looking forward to your deep insights.

Google cofounder Sergey Brin, who had already been known to have associated with Epstein, is in the latest batch of Epstein files. The billionaire was in an undated photo that appears to show him at Epstein’s private island, with the photo including women whose faces have been redacted. Epstein victim Sarah Ransome also claimed in court documents she had met Brin and his then-fiancee Anne Wojcicki, the cofounder of 23andme, at Epstein’s island. Brin also knew Maxwell, and in 2003 emails the two discussed Brin attending a dinner at Epstein’s New York mansion. “Dinners at Jeffrey's are always happily casual and relaxed,” Maxwell wrote to Brin, who responded that he would be in New York and to let him know “what works for you and Jeffrey.” It’s unclear if that meeting, which Brin suggested he could also bring then-Google CEO Eric Schmidt to, ever took place. Brin has not publicly commented on his relationship with Epstein and has not been accused of any wrongdoing, and Google has not yet responded to a request for comment.

What does it all mean, oh wise one? Should I stop using Google now? Does using their search engine imply complicity?

Emails from 2013 suggest Epstein put women in touch with billionaire Steven Tisch, the chairman and executive vice president of the New York Giants. Epstein described Tisch as a “new but [obviously] shared interest friend” and repeatedly discussed women with the billionaire in emails: In one exchange, Epstein invited Tisch to his home and asked if he should invite a Russian woman over as well, to which Tisch responded, “Is she fun?”, while on another occasion, Tisch asked Epstein if his “present was in NYC” and if he could “get my surprise to take to lunch tomorrow.” Women also emailed Epstein about their dates with Tisch, The Athletic reports, and Epstein at one point told Tisch that he had done “very well” with a woman the billionaire had been out with, adding, “She is a little freaked by the age difference but go slow.” Tisch had previously asked Epstein if that woman was “pro or civilian,” to which Epstein said to call him because, “I don’t like records of these conversations.” In a statement to Forbes, Tisch said he and Epstein “had a brief association where we exchanged emails about adult women, and in addition, we discussed movies, philanthropy and investments. I did not take him up on any of his invitations and never went to his island. As we all know now, he was a terrible person and someone I deeply regret associating with.” Another billionaire sports owner, Philadelphia 76ers co-owner Josh Harris, also had multiple email exchanges with Epstein between 2013 and 2016, including setting up meetings with the financier at his home. There is no indication of any wrongdoing from Harris.

Tell me frankly - should we be boycotting the NFL and NBA on the strength of this?

The newly released Epstein files include a 2021 interview with an anonymous Epstein victim who alleges Maxwell “presented” her to Trump at a party in New York, with Maxwell telling the victim, “Oh I think he likes you. Aren't you lucky. This is great.” The victim testified Maxwell “made clear” to Trump that the victim was “available” and the introduction “was set up very much like how Maxwell introduced [the victim] to Epstein.” The victim said she spoke to Trump for approximately 20 minutes and was given a tour with Trump, Maxwell and Epstein present, but said “nothing happened” between her and the now-president. The files also include 2011 emails between Epstein and Maxwell about a person accusing Epstein of wrongdoing who previously worked at Mar-a-Lago—which may refer to victim Virginia Giuffre. Maxwell responded to an email from Epstein asking if Trump would respond to the allegations by saying, “I thought you said not to involve Donald.” The files also include details from a complaint brought by an unnamed woman who accused Trump of raping her when she was 13 years old, which formed the basis for several lawsuits that have since been dropped. Her allegations have not been verified.

Nothing has derailed Trump's political career in 10 years - what's going to change this here? If nothing, then can we expect him to restore Maduro to Venezuela, lay off Iran, and retreat ICE to barracks, assuming they were all just distractions.

Idea - maybe the Epstein files are actually the distraction.

A million files is a lot.Help me narrow it down to, say, 20,000. I could read all of those in an hour.

You've had way more than the allotted one and a half hours and.... nothing to show for it.

But your Googling and cutting and pasting skills were admirable.

@SnoopDog

The truth is not much burying needed when the networks completely ignoring it.

The billionaire class is raping children, and they are in the highest places of power, getting tax breaks, and so far are untouchable by the laws of Dumbfcukinstan.

@carl0002

If anybody wondered how bad all of this is - look at this statement made by the Deputy AG.

These are wild things coming out in these files .george bush assaulting a man. bill gates getting a std from a russian girl and giving it to his wife.

Jay z also in there assaulting people if these things are true these people are really sick

Hollyweird

Did the files say who "Bubba" was?

@Trex

It is heavily insinuated that "Bubba" is Bill Clinton and that "Bubba" received oral sex from the Dotard.
