New developments in my 3 year Epstein investigation, this time regarding JP Morgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. This is a long thread, but worth sticking around for.
Earlier this year I revealed that my investigators had uncovered a massive Epstein file at the Treasury Department containing bank records. They found over 4700 wire transfers totaling $1.1 BILLION in and out of his JP Morgan Chase accounts alone.
In September, we got new explosive details about JP Morgan’s deep relationship with Epstein. The reports contained shocking details about how bank execs blew off internal warnings for years to keep Epstein on as a client, enabling his trafficking. nytimes.com/2025/09/08/mag…
So a few weeks ago I continued my follow the money investigation by demanding answers from Jamie Dimon, the chairman and CEO of JP Morgan Chase. More info on that inquiry is available here: finance.senate.gov/ranking-member…
I want to know: with respect to Epstein’s crimes, what did JPMC execs know and when did they know it? If Dimon really knew nothing about Epstein, then how does he explain reported internal emails from his employees flagging Epstein’s activity for him?
Another mystery: By 2013 concerns over Epstein's criminal activity boiled over at JPMC. Top execs finally agreed to ditch him as a client. They then waited SIX YEARS to flag his suspicious transactions to FinCEN, even though federal law requires they be flagged right away.
Banks are required by law to flag suspicious transactions right away so law enforcement can stop monsters like Epstein. JPMC is one of several banks that willingly chose not to alert law enforcement about Epstein's money laundering and trafficking payments.
Public reporting, which JPMC has not disputed, shows that executives including the head of JPMC’s private bank for the ultra-wealthy, were warned repeatedly about Epstein but kept him on as a client.
The American people deserve to know what JPMC’s role is here. Instead, Jamie Dimon blew off my questions, claiming that one employee was singlehandedly responsible for maintaining the bank’s ties to Epstein: finance.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…
It’s laughable for JMPC to try to lay its whole Epstein relationship off on a former employee. The evidence indicates that the bank’s ties with Epstein, and the mistakes it made, went all the way to the top.
Here’s the other big problem: Treasury Secretary Bessent is sitting on a massive Epstein file containing thousands more bank documents that would help us continue to follow the money through his sex trafficking ring.
Jamie Dimon really thinks Congress and the American people will believe that only one top exec at his multi-billion dollar bank enabled Epstein. Be serious.
Today I’m giving Dimon and JPMC another chance to explain why they appeared to enable Epstein's trafficking for years. finance.senate.gov/ranking-member…
A lot of wealthy and powerful people helped Epstein fund his sex trafficking operation. The American people deserve to know who they are. Secretary Bessent, like his boss, is covering it up. I’m going to keep following the money. Stay tuned.

When the Senate votes on final passage next week, I will vote no on KOSA. Here's why:
After months of negotiations and thanks to hard work by Commerce Chair Cantwell and Leader Schumer, the final version of this bill is improved..
The changes that I, LGBTQ+ advocates, parents, student activists, civil rights orgs, and others have fought for over the last two years have made it less likely that the bill can be used as a tool for MAGA extremists to wage war on legal and essential information to teens.
The House Intelligence Committee wants to make it easier for the federal government to spy on you without a warrant. Here's how:
FISA 702 currently allows the government to collect the communications of foreigners. If an Americans' communications get scooped up in the process, the government is able write this off as "incidental."
While the current law doesn't make it impossible to intentionally collect Americans' private communications, it does make it harder. The House Intel Committee's bill will make it easier for the federal government to collect Americans' private communications without a warrant.
This is big: For two years, my staff on @SenateFinance have been investigating Credit Suisse's role in tax evasion schemes by ultra-wealthy U.S citizens.
In 2014, Credit Suisse entered into a plea agreement with DOJ over its role in helping wealthy Americans evade taxes. Our investigation found that since then, Credit Suisse helped conceal an offshore account worth $100 million & 23 more accounts each worth at LEAST $20 million.
Greedy bankers and delinquent government regulators helped enable a massive, ongoing conspiracy to aid ultra-wealthy American tax cheats. In addition to a significant penalty for the bank, the senior bankers involved in these schemes must also face criminal investigation.
Today's riots by insurrectionists in the nation's Capitol caps off four years of Donald Trump fanning the flames of fanaticism. Every Republican lawmaker who supported his efforts to overturn a legitimate election shares responsibility for today's violence.
All Americans must be able to elect House and Senate members safe in the knowledge that their views will be represented in civil debate here in Congress without mob rule ever squelching that discussion.
As a steadfast defender of the First Amendment, I will always support peaceful protest even if I disagree with the views that are expressed. This is far from peaceful protest.
Whoever wins the next presidential election will be in charge during the biggest crisis Medicare has ever faced. I was just on the Senate floor sounding the alarm on our nation’s looming Medicare crisis.
Donald Trump’s ongoing economic crisis has been devastating for Medicare. According to nonpartisan experts, Medicare will be insolvent in just four years, jeopardizing the basic services that millions of seniors rely on every day.
Whether Medicare will continue to function the way it does today for future generations is a big unknown. The only certainty is this: if Donald Trump remains in charge, it’ll be the end of the Medicare guarantee as we know it. Full stop.
I was just on the Senate floor with @SenSchumer to introduce our resolution that would put an end to Russian propaganda laundering by Senate Republicans.
The foreign threats to our democracy are an established matter of fact. Ignoring or overlooking those threats when it’s politically convenient would be harmful enough. Wielding that disinformation as a political weapon is something far worse.
The disinformation being spread by Russian agents has made it into certain media outlets in this country all too willing to spread the products of Russian intelligence. It’s also been circulated by the president’s own legal team.
