WSJ Article On Epstein Calendar-New Names Are Fascinating | |

The nation’s spy chief, a longtime college president and top women in finance. The circle of people who associated with Jeffrey Epstein years after he was a convicted sex offender is wider than previously reported, according to a trove of documents that include his schedules. William Burns, director of the Central Intelligence Agency since 2021, had three meetings scheduled with Epstein in 2014, when he was deputy secretary of state, the documents show. They first met in Washington and then Mr. Burns visited Epstein’s townhouse in Manhattan. Kathryn Ruemmler, a White House counsel under President Barack Obama, had dozens of meetings with Epstein in the years after her White House service and before she became a top lawyer at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. in 2020. He also planned for her to join a 2015 trip to Paris and a 2017 visit to Epstein’s private island in the Caribbean. Leon Botstein, the president of Bard College, invited Epstein, who brought a group of young female guests, to the campus. Noam Chomsky, a professor, author and political activist, was scheduled to fly with Epstein to have dinner at Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse in 2015. None of their names appear in Epstein’s now-public “black book” of contacts or in the public flight logs of passengers who traveled on his private jet. The documents show that Epstein arranged multiple meetings with each of them after he had served jail time in 2008 for a sex crime involving a teenage girl and was registered as a sex offender. The documents, which include thousands of pages of emails and schedules from 2013 to 2017, haven’t been previously reported. The documents don’t reveal the purpose of most of the meetings. The Wall Street Journal couldn’t verify whether every scheduled meeting took place. Most of those people told the Journal they visited Epstein for reasons related to his wealth and connections. Several said they thought he had served his time and had rehabilitated himself. Mr. Botstein said he was trying to get Epstein to donate to his school. Mr. Chomsky said he and Epstein discussed political and academic topics. | |

#8 Ref #5 above The sexual connections and thick wallet were the draw, not the actual business. If you consider the actual business, the meeting makes perfect sense, just a bit odd that it was on a calendar overtly. Bet there are no telltale names there from an office complex in Tel-Aviv! |

#6 #4 - word is that Tucker wasn't fired-fired. He's still employed and paid by Fox, which keeps his non-disparagement, non-compete, NDA intact. They just took away his shows |

#5 Talk about his sex crimes, and about imagining his various contacts as involved with young girls, gets all the oxygen in the room. I'd not be surprised if he offered other services that mattered more. |

#4 The firing of Tucker Carlson and publishing of the Epstein latest had sign off from the same individual: Rupert Murdoch. |

#3 Epstein had a shit load of money with a reputation for donating millions at a time. Why is everyone shocked people were willing to meet him. |
