1/ 🧵BREAKING: Previously unreported federal Epstein file emails reveal that Jeffrey Epstein claimed he personally killed cold fusion — the discovery that could have given the world clean, limitless energy from water.
Not through science. Through congressional defunding and a meeting with the head of the Mormon Church.
It's in the federal record. EFTA02437662. Previously unreported. Full story 👇
2/ October 1, 2009. One year after his sex offense conviction. Epstein writes to associate Al Seckel:
"regarding cold fusion. i killed pons years ago"
Seckel presses: "How did you kill him?"
Epstein's answer names a specific congressman, a specific funding fight, and the head of the Mormon Church.
3/ Epstein described lobbying Congress against the funding for Pons's research at the University of Utah, naming Rep. Wayne Owens (D-UT) and claiming he met with LDS Church leadership — because BYU's competing cold fusion program ran through the Church's governance.
This wasn't peer review. It was political assassination of a scientific career by a private citizen with no scientific credentials.
4/ Meanwhile, Seckel — Epstein's correspondent — was evaluating cold fusion devices for "one of the google guys," sat on the board of Milken's Knowledge Universe, and was about to moderate a panel at the Kodak Theater with the President of CNN on the topic:
"Are We Transitioning from an Age of Information into an Age of Misinformation?"
His argument: people who "want to issue health care advice, start a website" are a civilizational threat.
2009. In Epstein's inbox.
5/ And the opening line of Seckel's October 14 email to a registered sex offender?
"Congratulations on your labeling! :-)"
That's the network. A man who killed scientists' careers. A man who decided which science billionaires should fund. And the intellectual blueprint for information control — a decade before ISD and CCDH deployed it at scale.
6/ Disclosure: I've spent nine years investigating the physics of cavitation — the phenomenon that may explain what Pons actually observed. Engineer Mark LeClair has proposed that cavitation-driven nuclear reactions occurred in Pons's cells without Pons understanding the mechanism.
If that hypothesis holds, Epstein didn't kill junk science. He killed science that was ahead of its time.
7/ Every claim is sourced to federal court exhibits with EFTA Bates numbers anyone can verify. I've drawn explicit lines between what the documents establish and what they don't.

3/ The decree covers 3 agencies. 5 platforms. Named plaintiffs only.
It says NOTHING about:
🔴 Foreign NGOs publishing fraudulent hit lists
🔴 Dark money funding those NGOs
🔴 Government officials amplifying their reports
🔴 Cross-border legal proceedings targeting American citizens for writing articles
1/🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Federal documents, unreported until now, show Bill Gates flew to Jeffrey Epstein's Palm Beach estate in 2013 — alone, without his security team, on Epstein's private plane.
Here is the full record of what surrounded that visit.
🧵👇
2/ Let's be precise about who Epstein was in March 2013.
Not a man under suspicion. Not a controversial figure.
A convicted sexual predator.
His guilty plea: soliciting a minor for prostitution — a charge whose language tells you everything about who the system was protecting.
The girl was a victim.
The legal system called her a prostitute.
1/🚨 Peter Thiel just called the Giving Pledge an "Epstein-adjacent, fake Boomer club."
Federal documents show he wasn't being provocative.
Epstein literally designed a business plan to help Bll Gates capture tens of billions of dollars of Giving Pledge money — in his own words, with Bates numbers.
Here's what the files show 🧵👇
2/💰 Feb 17, 2011. Epstein to JPMorgan — three months after the Giving Pledge launched:
"They all have a tax advisor, but have no real clue on how to give it away."
