This flew under the radar yesterday — a federal judge granted partial summary judgment to the Jeffrey Epstein estate executors being sued by one of his accusers. Image
A good chunk of the lawsuit was tossed for statute-of-limitations reasons, but claims brought under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act live on Image
This is the same judge who oversaw the Diddy trial btw

NEW: I spoke to four people who've seen the Epstein files.

They say there are no signs in there that Jeffrey Epstein worked for intelligence. Nothing the US government wanted to be classified. No interest from intelligence agencies. Nada. Image
Image
"Nothing supports the contention that there was either a honeypot blackmail scheme or any association with intelligence," one source told me.

The lack of anything related to intelligence agencies in the Epstein files raises more questions about why the Trump administration won't just release them.

If there's nothing sensitive there from a national security perspective, why all the secrecy?

As a person who covered Ghislaine Maxwell's criminal trial, and who has read through pretty much every single Jeffrey Epstein lawsuit, I find the current discourse to be in bizarro land.
Of course I want answers. I have written to Maxwell in the hopes that she'd talk to me (no luck).

But the idea of subpoenaing Ghislaine Maxwell for her testimony, or interviewing her in jail — how does that work?
She has a live criminal appeal. It doesn't make sense that she'd jeopardize it unless she gets some kind of immunity.

And if she does, how can you trust her? She has every incentive in the world to get out of her 20-year sentence.

I have been reporting on Jeffrey Epstein and the criminal and civil lawsuits surrounding him for several years.

Here is the truth about "The Epstein Files."

🧵 Image
Most of the "Epstein docs" we've seen over the past several years have come out of civil litigation between one of Jeffrey Epstein's accusers, Virginia Giuffre, and his co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell.
It also led to the criminal case against Maxwell, which I explained here: businessinsider.com/virginia-giuff…

One of my favorite Trump scandals is his "full and unconditional pardon" of Christopher Wade.

Who is Christopher Wade? No one knows. 🧵 Image
The first time anyone heard of Christopher Wade was when Trump pardoned him before leaving office.

Per his public statement, Wade pleaded guilty to "various cyber crimes."

His pardon was supported by ex-Marvel executive Ike Perlmutter and Mark Templeton. Image
If you try to search for Wade's case in PACER, the ENTIRE DOCKET IS SEALED.

You can't even see which judge or prosecutor was assigned to it, when the case was brought — nothing. Image

In 2021, Steve Bannon distributed a trailer for a purported documentary about Jeffrey Epstein.

Bannon got 15 hours of footage of the pedophile, including interviews in his Manhattan mansion.

What happened to the "documentary"?

In reality, sources told me, it never existed.

🧵 Image
Bannon's explanation that he was producing a documentary about Epstein was nonsense, according to people who spent time with both men around the time they were in each other's lives.

In reality, the two were friends.

I've been trying to see the purported "documentary" for years. And Bannon talks to journalists all the time.

But when I contacted him and his spokesperson and said I was working on a story about his Epstein tapes, I got silence.
