Howard Lutnick's Epstein Ties Deepen

Howard Lutnik, commerce secretary and constant lurker of the White House. His ties to Jeffrey Epstein have deepened. Now remember, he said that he'd only met him once. They were nextdoor neighbors. They went over to his house, him and his wife went to Jeffrey Epstein's house. They saw a massage table and candles. And Epstein says he gets a massage every day of a special kind. And Howard Lutnik and his wife were so disgusted they vowed to never speak to Jeffrey Epstein again, only to discover that later he did visit his island, that they were business partners, and now we have more evidence of Howard Lutnik's ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Now, why does this matter? Because Howard Lutnik, if you notice, every time you see a video of Donald Trump talking, Howard Lutnik is standing right next to him. I don't know when in the last administrations we saw a commerce secretary so completely by the side of the United States president. So, who is Howard Lutnik really, and why is he always lurking?

First, I want to show you this video. Trump is talking about Howard Lutnik surviving 9/11. He had barely survived. His firm took up the top three floors of one of the towers. Everybody that was at work that day at Howard Lutnik's firm, where he was the CEO. It was, um, uh, an investment, um, firm that they, they all died. But Howard Lutnik happened to not be there that day. Now, watch Donald Trump tell the story. The story's odd. And then look at Howard Lutnik's reaction to the story. He kind of is nervously laughing.

"Been great. And Howard has built one of the great companies, Cantor Fitzgerald, that was wiped out, completely wiped out, other than a few people left in Europe, and he rebuilt the company into a bigger, better company. Cantor Fitzgerald was, is one of the most absolutely one of the top companies on Wall Street, stocks, bonds, trading. And he took that, I mean, he literally watched the plane go into the building, going into the World Trade Center. Amazing story. That alone is an amazing story. He was delayed because his wife insisted that he, finally, after years, take his child to school. So he took his child to school that one day, 'cause normally he would have been in the building at 6:00 in the morning. That's that business, right? So you, you owe your wife a lot and your child a lot, right? But, uh, his wife insisted that he take his child to school for five years. He didn't do it. He was horrible. What kind of a father was he? Okay, I'll do it. And he took, and he was therefore driving down at 8:43, whatever the time was, down the West Side Highway, and he saw the plane go into the side of the building. He said, "Wow." And he occupied the top three floors of the World Trade Center, of the one building of the World Trade Center. And, uh, you know what happened there? He lost 100% of the people in that, uh, all his whole company was there. And he rebuilt his company step by step over years and became bigger and stronger. And he gave a tremendous amount of the profit to the families of the people that died, which he didn't have to do. And, uh, now he's working with us. He did an incredible job. I mean, anybody in that world, they know Howard Lutnik very well."

"Kind of odd to tell that story, isn't it? I mean, you know, it's just a little bit bizarre to be recanting that story in the White House after people on social media have been talking about Howard Lutnik, his ties to Epstein, and the fact that he survived 9/11. And then Trump decides to tell that story. It's just kind of odd timing, I should say. But, um, more evidence has come out that Howard Lutnik had ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Here is a document from the Epstein files. And, uh, in this document, this is FBI document FD302, summarizes a 2021 interview with a senior securities executive who alleged widespread financial misconduct connected to Cantor Fitzgerald, which is Howard Lutnik's firm, and its affiliate, Parab Services. And the interviewee claimed that rogue traders were overriding internal controls. Losses were being shifted between trading pools to conceal them. Employees were forced to contribute 10% of compensation into a declining share scheme that they never truly owned. And Charity Day revenues were potentially manipulated while brokers lost commissions. And the document specifically ties these allegations to Howard Lutnik, stating he ran everything. Like this wasn't something that was just happening under his nose. He ran everything. He maintained a tight inner circle and allegedly directed or was aware of the misconduct, using philanthropy as a cover.

Now, one thing that Howard Lutnik says that he did after 9/11 was that he had everybody in the firm give 10 or 20% of their compensation into a pool that then benefited the victims of 9/11, the families of Cantor Fitzgerald specifically, of the employees who were killed that day. So, it was this kind of humanitarian charitable scheme that this employee who is reporting it to the FBI is saying, "Yeah, this was a sham. This was a total sham. That yes, they used philanthropy as a cover, but it actually was widespread misconduct." It also notes Lutnik's proximity to Jeffrey Epstein as a neighbor and references property transactions involving Epstein-linked figures. Importantly, um, you know, that's what this person alleges. This person alleges that Howard Lutnik ran this scheme and that he was connected to Jeffrey Epstein and he was connected to Jeffrey Epstein adjacent people. So, what is that about? I mean, if you're committing fraud, right? So you're doing something that's not on the up and up. We don't know why you're doing that. Whatever it is you're doing, what is the money being used for? Where are you funneling that money? Where is the money coming from? You know, if you're, if you're taking contributions from people at the firm and saying that it's for charitable reasons, but then you're funneling it to other things and you're doing other things with it. What is exactly that you're doing? What are you funding? What is going on here? So, that is a tie that also showed up in the Epstein files.

Here's another strange tie. Here's his sister, Edie Lutnik. She posts this tweet. This is in 2012 that she posts this. "Check out Terramar Project and protect the high seas." She says, "Okay. Um, check out the Terramar Project and protect the high seas." Well, what is the Terramar Project? Terramar Project was a nonprofit launched in 2012. That's when Edie Lutnik, um, shares this image. Guess who it was launched by? Ghislaine Maxwell. Yeah. It presented itself as an ocean conservation and marine policy organization focused on the high seas, the parts of the ocean that are beyond any single country's jurisdiction. Now, what Terramar claimed to do was to promote protection of international waters, encourage people to become citizens of the high seas, which is like a symbolic online pledge, host events around ocean sustainability, participate in UN-adjacent marine conferences. So the branding leaned heavily on global citizenship, ocean stewardship, and international cooperation. And it operated mostly as an advocacy and, and networking nonprofit rather than a traditional conservation group doing fieldwork. So, what was Ghislaine Maxwell starting this for? Who was she rubbing elbows with? Clearly, Edie Lutnik was one of the people that she was rubbing elbows with. The sister of Howard Lutnik, a very powerful financier in New York City. Well, okay. So you think you say she just posted this, you know, maybe she just thought it was cute and Ghislaine Maxwell went out there and said, you know, we got this charity and she went with it. No, no, no, no. Edie Lutnik was the president of Terramar for a period. Her involvement appears to have been administrative and executive, helping manage operations and public-facing activities. Okay, so she was the president of Terramar, an organization started by Ghislaine Maxwell. But nothing to see here, folks. There is no tie between Howard Lutnik and Jeffrey Epstein, he claims.

So, um, yeah, Terramar was then shut down in 2020 after, um, Jeffrey Epstein was arrested in 2019 on sex trafficking charges. Um, Terramar then shut down in July of 2019, and it totally dissolved in 2020 is when it was totally dissolved. But nothing to see here, folks. There is no tie between Howard Lutnik and Jeffrey Epstein, except for all of these numerous ties that we keep seeing. And oh yeah, he also went to visit the island. And now he happens to just be all over the White House influencing policy. Always there, always lurking, always having Trump's ear. Coincidence? I don't know.

I want to share with you this last, um, piece. Related or unrelated, you decide if you think this is related or not. This is a video clip. This is actually an audio clip. This is of, um, William Cooper. He was a radio show host who was, and this broadcast is from June 28th of 2001. So this is before September 11th. Keep that in mind. And he does this broadcast. He, by the way, was shot and killed, um, in November of 2001 after 9/11. Just listen to this video clip, this audio of his radio show. And like I said, you, you just make what you will of it when you hear it.

"Can you believe what you have been seeing on CNN today? Ladies and gentlemen, supposedly a CNN reporter found Osama bin Laden, took a television camera crew with him, went into Osama bin Laden's hideout, interviewed him and his top leadership, his top lieutenants and colonels and generals, and he came out and told everybody within three weeks, Osama bin Laden is going to attack the United States of Israel. Now, don't you think that's kind of strange, folks? You see, because the largest intelligence apparatus in the world with the biggest budget in the history of the world has been looking for Osama bin Laden for years and years and years and can't find him. Some doofus jerkoff reporter with a camera crew bosses right into his hideout and interviews him. And if you believe it, you are one of the stupidest jerks that ever lived on the face of this earth. And whatever is going to happen that they're going to blame on Osama bin Laden, don't you even believe it. Another social engineering project to change the minds and the attitudes and the beliefs of the people of the world, and especially the United States, to bring about one world socialist totalitarian government. I wonder what Osama bin Laden's targets are supposed to be. And if they don't, you know, if this doesn't materialize in the next two or three weeks, it will eventually materialize because they haven't succeeded in taking our freedoms away. In fact, there's been a great awakening in this country that is gaining momentum. And so, I can tell you with a certainty, they must do something terrible in order to stop this backlash and regain the sympathy of the mass herds of sheeple out there."

Okay, that's weird. June of 2001, before September 11th of 2001, this radio show host who just happens to be killed a couple of months later, says that Bin Laden, there's reports that CNN gave of a reporter coming out saying Bin Laden, if you believe it, he's going to attack Israel and the United States. Osama bin Laden is going to do it. And just a short few months later, Bin Laden is accused of perpetrating 9/11. Now, whether or not he did it, I mean, it could go both ways on that story. If there was, this would either prove one of two things, right? It proves either foreknowledge. People knew. If a CNN reporter of all people could go in there and find out that Bin Laden's got a plot against the United States and Israel, is going to attack any day now, then there was obviously other people who knew about this. That proves either foreknowledge, or it proves foreknowledge because it was pre-planned by a different group and they were going to pin it on Bin Laden. Either way, there's a lot more to be suspicious of when it comes to 9/11. Something that we'll be digging more deeper into. I think with the release of the Epstein files, the missing tranche of documents that just happened to be around 9/11, some of the emails, you, some of the, the other things that we're seeing, I think a lot more people are starting to question 9/11. And, um, so we will dig more into that as the days go on.
