• Les Wexner Issues A Statement Prior To His Epstein Related Congressional Appearance (2/19/26)
    Feb 19 2026
    In a detailed written statement submitted ahead of his closed-door deposition before the U.S. House Oversight Committee, billionaire Les Wexner said he was “pleased” for the chance to “set the record straight” about his long-standing financial and personal connection to the late Jeffrey Epstein. Wexner described Epstein as a “con man” and said he had been “naïve, foolish, and gullible” to trust him, but emphatically denied ever having any knowledge of or involvement in Epstein’s criminal conduct. He reiterated that he cut all ties nearly two decades ago when he learned of Epstein’s misconduct, asserted he had “done nothing wrong and have nothing to hide,” and called attention to the pain suffered by Epstein’s survivors, expressing sympathy for their suffering.

    Wexner also portrayed himself as a family man, philanthropist, and longtime Ohio community leader, framing his statement around a desire to correct what he characterized as “outrageous untrue statements and hurtful rumor, innuendo, and speculation” about him. He stressed his long career building retail brands, his ethical values, and said that his relationship with Epstein ended after he discovered financial misconduct rather than criminal activity. Throughout the statement, he sought to distance himself from the most egregious aspects of the Epstein scandal while acknowledging the opportunity to cooperate with congressional inquiries.

  • The Epstein Enterprise: A System Designed to Recruit and Exploit (2/19/26)
    Feb 19 2026
    At its core, the case hinges on a straightforward legal framework: sex trafficking of minors involves recruiting or obtaining someone under eighteen for sexual activity in exchange for money or something of value. The conduct described in this instance followed a consistent pattern. Underage girls were allegedly approached with offers of cash for “massages,” encounters escalated into sexual acts, and payments were made afterward. Reports further described a referral system in which girls were encouraged to bring other girls and were compensated for doing so. Because minors cannot legally consent to commercial sex, the presence of payment and recruitment carries decisive legal weight. The absence of overt force does not negate the charge when the alleged victims are under eighteen.


    The allegations were not confined to a single episode or location. Similar accounts surfaced across multiple properties and over an extended period, suggesting repetition and coordination rather than isolated misconduct. Critics note that a prior plea agreement and the lack of a completed federal trial do not eliminate the factual allegations that formed the basis of later indictments. The commercial element—cash tied to sexual access involving minors—remains central. When recruitment, payment, and repetition converge, investigators and prosecutors characterize that structure as organized commercial sexual exploitation of minors. Stripped of political framing, the factual framework aligns with the statutory definition of sex trafficking.

  • Reuters/Ipsos Poll Finds Majority Believe Epstein Files Prove Powerful Avoid Consequences (2/19/26)
    Feb 19 2026
    A new Reuters/Ipsos poll finds that a large majority of Americans believe the recently released files connected to Jeffrey Epstein reveal a broader pattern in which wealthy and powerful figures in the United States are rarely held accountable for their actions. About 69% of respondents said the statement that the Epstein files “show that powerful people in the U.S. are rarely held accountable” reflected their views very or extremely well, and another 17% agreed somewhat. This sentiment cut across party lines, with more than 80% of both Republicans and Democrats saying the statement described their thinking at least somewhat well. The poll, conducted online with 1,117 U.S. adults and a 3-point margin of error, came shortly after the U.S. Justice Department released millions of pages of records showing Epstein’s ties to prominent figures in politics, business, finance and academia.


    While some corporate leaders have resigned in the wake of the disclosures, others who had contact with Epstein remain in powerful posts, and individuals such as the Trump administration’s Commerce Secretary and health official Dr. Mehmet Oz are noted in the documents without being accused of crimes. The issue remains politically charged: a significant portion of Republicans (67%) said it’s time for the country to move on from talking about the Epstein files, compared with only 21% of Democrats. The poll reflects widespread skepticism about elite accountability and highlights partisan differences over how long the controversy should continue to figure in public debate.

  • Inside the Resignation of Tom Pritzker Amid Epstein Revelations (2/19/26)
    Feb 19 2026
    Tom Pritzker, the billionaire executive chairman of Hyatt Hotels and a prominent member of the Pritzker family, announced his immediate resignation as executive chair following revelations in newly released files tying him to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell. The disclosures showed that Pritzker maintained contact with Epstein well after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for sex crimes, including email exchanges and interactions with Epstein’s inner circle. In his resignation letter to Hyatt’s board, Pritzker acknowledged exercising “terrible judgment” in not distancing himself sooner and said he deeply regretted the association, stressing that protecting Hyatt’s reputation was his top priority. He also confirmed he would not seek re-election to the board at the company’s upcoming annual meeting and that CEO Mark Hoplamazian would take over as chairman.

    Beyond the corporate fallout, Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre had previously named Pritzker in court filings connected to her trafficking lawsuit against Epstein and Maxwell. In depositions released in the years after Epstein’s death, Giuffre alleged that she was trafficked to and had sexual encounters with Pritzker at Epstein’s direction—claims he has vehemently denied. Those allegations, while never resulting in criminal charges, were part of the wave of unsealed documents that put scrutiny on Pritzker’s ties to Epstein and helped fuel the pressure leading to his resignation.

  • Transatlantic Fallout: France and the UK Intensify Their Epstein Related Investigations (2/18/26)
    Feb 19 2026





    In France, prosecutors in Paris have opened multiple new investigations into suspected crimes connected to late U.S. financier Jeffrey Epstein following the public release of millions of pages of previously sealed documents by U.S. authorities. Authorities announced two preliminary probes — one focused on alleged sex abuse and human trafficking offenses and the other on potential financial and economic wrongdoing, including money laundering, corruption, and tax fraud — with the goal of examining whether any French nationals or activities in France played a role in Epstein’s network. Prosecutors are also encouraging potential victims in France to come forward and are revisiting earlier inquiries, including the case of French modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, an Epstein associate who was charged with sex crimes but died in custody before trial. The investigations extend to high-profile figures, with probes under way into former culture minister Jack Lang and his daughter for suspected tax fraud linked to Epstein-related financial arrangements, as well as scrutiny of a French diplomat accused of improper conduct based on emails in the released files.

    In the United Kingdom, police have stepped up inquiries into potential ties between Epstein and activities on British soil as documents released by U.S. authorities shed light on previously unseen details. U.K. law enforcement agencies are examining whether Epstein may have used private flights in and out of UK airports, notably Stansted and Luton, to traffic women — claims prompted by flight logs and passenger lists found in the newly disclosed files. Multiple police forces, including Essex, Thames Valley, Surrey, and the Metropolitan Police, are coordinating through a national group to assess emerging allegations linked to trafficking, immigration irregularities, and connections to British-linked associates, with inquiries involving figures such as Peter Mandelson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor (both of whom have denied wrongdoing). The coordinated effort is part of a broader response to the global revelations from the Epstein files and reflects growing political and legal pressure in Britain to investigate any potential abuses or misconduct tied to Epstein’s network.

  • Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein, Stacey Plaskett, and the Media Blackout (2/19/26)
    Feb 19 2026
    The silence surrounding Stacey Plaskett’s lawsuit by Epstein survivors exposes the staggering hypocrisy of both lawmakers and the legacy media. Politicians who pound the table about justice and accountability fall mute when the accusations land inside their own chamber. Journalists who dissect every lurid detail of Epstein’s life suddenly find no headlines when survivors point to a sitting member of Congress. This selective outrage isn’t oversight—it’s complicity. Survivors are abandoned the moment their stories threaten insiders, and the system shows once again that accountability is conditional, not principled.


    That selective accountability corrodes credibility and turns justice into theater. By politicizing the scandal, lawmakers use survivors as pawns while letting the real villains—Epstein’s network of enablers—slip quietly back into the shadows. The result is a collapse of trust: citizens see investigations as performance, predators learn power protects power, and survivors are betrayed all over again. Epstein may be dead and Maxwell imprisoned, but the system that shielded them is alive and well—sustained by cowardice, silence, and the hypocrisy of institutions that pretend to defend justice while practicing selective blindness.

  • Mega Edition: The Ghislaine Maxwell 2019 SDNY Grand Jury Transcript Unsealed (Part 4-6) (2/18/26)
    Feb 19 2026
    The newly unsealed New York grand jury materials related to Ghislaine Maxwell provide a clearer window into how federal prosecutors built the case that ultimately led to her conviction. The documents outline the scope of witness testimony, evidentiary focus, and investigative priorities considered by the grand jury, reinforcing that Maxwell was not viewed as a peripheral figure but as a central facilitator within Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking operation. While much of the material aligns with facts already established at trial—including patterns of recruitment, grooming, and abuse—the unsealing confirms that prosecutors presented a structured, victim-centered narrative to the grand jury well before Maxwell’s arrest, countering claims that the case was rushed or politically motivated.

    At the same time, the documents have drawn attention for what they do not contain. The grand jury materials remain narrowly focused on Maxwell’s conduct and charges, offering little insight into why broader conspiracy cases against other Epstein associates were never pursued in New York. This has fueled renewed scrutiny of prosecutorial discretion and investigative limits, as the records show a deliberate effort to secure Maxwell’s indictment while leaving larger questions about Epstein’s network unresolved. For critics and survivors alike, the unsealing represents both a measure of long-delayed transparency and a reminder of how much of the Epstein story remains outside the bounds of criminal accountability.
