So tonight, I want to walk you through something that most media outlets still treat like a fringe theory, but the documents are starting to make it harder and harder to dismiss.
Newly released materials from the massive Epstein file tunch, millions of pages, contain references that strongly suggest Jeffrey Epstein may not have been just a wealthy predator operating alone. No, there is mounting evidence that he was working with intelligence, possibly, probably US intelligence, probably Israeli intelligence, probably both, and that his sex trafficking operation may have doubled as a blackmail operation.
Now, we're not speculating wildly here. We're going to walk through the actual documents and the actual statements. So, let's start with something that appears in the files themselves.
Inside the Epstein files is a memo that appears to be part of an investigative record. Now, the exact author isn't fully clear, but it's written in the tone of someone summarizing background intelligence on Epstein. And here's the key line. Quote, "At some point in time, Jeffrey Epstein worked for the United States government as a financial bounty hunter."
So, that's not a tabloid claim. This is inside the official file release. The memo continues saying, quote, he has retained significant political connections with both Israel and the United States. Individuals with significant knowledge include Ehood Barack, Les Wexner, George Mitchell, Bill Richardson, Bill Clinton, and Doug Band.
Now, think about that list. Ehood Barack is a former prime minister of Israel and former head of Israeli military intelligence. Bill Clinton obviously the former president of the United States. George Mitchell was a Senate majority leader. Uh Bill Richardson was a UN ambassador also the former governor of New Mexico. Less Wexner billionaire financeier and Epstein's primary financial patron. He was the owner of limited brands and uh which also owned Victoria Secret.
Now these are not casual dinner guests. These are political and intelligence adjacent figures. The memo also says that all Epstein employees were required to sign confidentiality agreements instructing them to immediately contact a specific New York lawyer if approached by law enforcement. So that's not typical corporate legal practice. That's damage control infrastructure. So if you're just managing money, you don't build a system designed to intercept law enforcement. But if you're running sensitive operations, possibly involving powerful people, then you absolutely do.
So now, here's what makes this even more interesting. This financial bounty hunter description wasn't isolated to this memo. Epstein himself used that phrase repeatedly for decades. The New York Times investigated the origins of Epstein's wealth. And in that piece, they write, quote, "Epstein liked to tell people he was a financial bounty hunter." We found only one example of this being true, but it was a big one, the New York Times says.
So, they describe how in the early 1980s after the collapse of Dale Securities, Epstein helped track down missing funds hidden offshore in a Cayman Island branch of a Canadian bank. So, he was reportedly richly rewarded for this.
Now, pause there. What does a financial bounty hunter actually mean? Well, it means tracking hidden money across offshore jurisdictions. It means understanding shell companies. It means navigating international banking secrecy. It means finding assets that people do not want found. So that is almost identical to the skill set used in oh I don't know intelligence financial investigations used by intelligence operatives. And it cuts both ways because that same expertise that allows you to find hidden money also allows you to hide it.
Which brings us to other witnesses. Now, Jesse Cornbluth is a former friend of Epstein, and he wrote in Salon, quote, "When we met in 1986, Epstein's double identity intrigued me." He said he didn't just manage money for clients with mega fortunes. He was also a highlevel bounty hunter. Sometimes, he told me, he worked for governments to recover money looted by African dictators. Other times, those dictators hired him to help them find their stolen money. What?
Now, that's an astonishing admission. recovering stolen funds for governments and also helping dictators hide looted funds. This is not conventional finance. That's operating in geopolitical gray zones like maybe intelligence gray zones. That's the type of dual channel access you see in intelligence cutouts, right? People who can operate between governments and bad actors.
In air mail, another journalist recounts Epstein saying, quote, I'm sort of a financial bounty hunter. So he described in vivid detail how money was hidden through complex networks in Andor, Fiji, Gilbr Jel Gilbralter and the Cayman Islands. He casually drops names like Adnan Kashagi, the Saudis, the Saudi arms dealer connected to Iran Contra, Aristotle Onasses, who was married to Jackie Kennedy, Shik Zed bin Sultan Al- Nayan, founding president of the United Arab Emirates.
So again, we're not talking about random hedge fund clients. We're talking about individuals inter intertwined with intelligence operations, arms deals, and heads of state. Epstein reporter Vicky Ward tweeted, quote, "In the 1980s, Jeffrey Epstein used to tell people he was a kind of financial bounty hunter whose job it was to find lost or stolen money for the government or for very rich people." So, um, that's not rumor. That's a journalist who covered him extensively.
In another tweet, she wrote, "I can tell you that according to one of my sources, one of the rich people whom Jeffrey Epstein chased down money was Adnan Kashagi, a powerful Saudi businessman." Now remember, Kashagi was deeply involved in the Iran Contra scandal, which was itself a CIA linked covert operation. So, this keeps circling back to the same ecosystem.
Now, it gets stranger. In 2011, Epstein filed an FOA request, actually multiple, with the FBI, CIA, and NSA. Think about that. Why would Jeffrey Epstein file a Freedom of Information Act request asking intelligence agencies what they had on him? Now, most criminals try to avoid intelligence agencies. He proactively contacted them.
Now, we don't have the exact text of what he requested, but we do have the CIA's response. And the CIA said that they could not locate records indicating an quote open or otherwise acknowledged affiliation with Epstein. But when it came to whether classified records existed regarding him, they issued what's called a GLMER response. They refuse to confirm or deny the existence of such records, which usually confirms that they exist. Right? This is important. A glmer response is used specifically when even acknowledging whether documents exist would reveal classified information.
So ask yourself, if there were no classified relationships, why not simply say no records? Why use the most cautious classification protection language available? And here's the deeper question. Why would Epstein ask for records about a relationship unless he believed one existed? So, he wanted to know, "What do you guys know? What do you guys have out there? What do you have publicly out there?" I mean, you don't randomly ask the CIA for records about your classified affiliation unless you suspect there are classified records, and you want to know what the public can have access to. That is a strange move for a private citizen. I'm certainly not going and asking.
So, now we move into physical access. In September of 2018, Epstein texts Steve Bannon, quote, "Going into a skiff talk tomorrow." What a skiff is a sensitive compartmented information facility. These are highly secure rooms used for classified intelligence briefings. You do not casually enter one. You generally need security clearance. You need sponsorship. You need authorization. It's not a conference room. These facilities are designed to prevent surveillance. No signals in, no signals out, soundproofing, reinforced walls. They're built to discuss national security secrets.
So, the obvious question is, why was Jeffrey Epstein inside of one? In another message to Bannon, Epstein writes, quote, you would have loved my tech meeting in the skiff. I laughed so loud that I thought it would be overhood overheard in the neighborhood. He also references Ehud Barack being present. Now Barack was not just a former prime minister of Israel. He was also a former head of Israeli military intelligence. So now we have Epstein inside of a skiff with a former Israeli intelligence chief discussing tech. This begins to look less like coincidence.
If Epstein had intelligence ties, what would his leverage be? Compromising material, obviously. Now Epstein emails his pilot instructing him to purchase motion detected hidden cameras. The pilot replies, quote, "I already purchased the motion sensor camera from the spy store in Fort Lauderdale yesterday. It's amazing how small they are, the size of a thumbnail drive. I'm installing them into Kleenex boxes now."
Installing hidden cameras inside Kleenex boxes. Motion activated. 64-hour recording capacity. This is not accidental recording. This is surveillance. If powerful politicians, businessmen, and foreign leaders were visiting his properties and being secret secretly recorded, well, what do you think that creates? Leverage, blackmail. Intelligence agencies around the you around the world use comprom compromising material to influence behavior. So, if you have a video of a senator committing a crime or something very embarrassing, you don't need to publicly expose it. You just need to remind them that it exists. That's power.
New footage has surfaced that appears consistent with this type of hidden camera described in those emails. Let's go ahead and watch. Jeffrey Epstein's victims have long said they believe they were being filmed by the sex offender. And this footage from a spy cam style camera inside Epstein's Palm Beach house appears to show just that. The footage has been obtained for the first time by Channel 4 News. Because the quality is so grainy during our investigation, we analyzed it frame by frame and we've slowed it down here so that you can see what's happening. A man, likely Epstein himself, at one point looks towards the hidden device. Images of what seems to be his accomplice, Gain Maxwell, as well as what appears to be several women or girls.
Okay, so if these recordings were systematic, not random, then this wasn't just a personal vice. It becomes operational. Another Epstein email contains a hidden message. Need button camera for Sultan. A button camera is a wearable surveillance typically disguised as clothing. The likely reference is Sultan Ahmed bin Sullium. Now, Ben Sullium was the CEO of DP World, a global logistics giant, and emails show him sending Epstein explicit sexual communications and images. And in one exchange, he asks Epstein about another billionaire, quote, "Is he one of us?" And Epstein replies, "No, lots of drugs." And the Sultan responds, "I do only girls. Thank you for the heads up. I will stay away." Is drugs code word for boys? And what does one of us mean? That is ambiguous. But in the context of gathering sexually compromising blackmail, it's eyebrow raising.
Now add to that Epstein requested a hidden wearable camera for that same individual. So uh where are we with that? And that kind of makes me wonder also about the love the torture video. Was he blackmailing the sultan? Did he have video? Was he was that just a reminder of, "Hey, I've got a video of you torturing someone." I mean, these are questions that we're all asking now.
So, let's go ahead and take a step back. We're not talking about internet rumors. We're talking about a document inside the official Epstein file saying he worked for the US government as a quote financial bounty hunter. We have repeated public claims by Epstein that he worked for governments recovering and hiding money. We have confirmed associations with figures like Adnan Kashagi, a man deeply tied to CIA linked covert operations. The CIA issuing a Glomar response, refusing to confirm or deny classified records about Epstein. We have Epstein texting Steve Bannon about entering skiff facilities, which are secure intelligence rooms, and meeting inside of those facilities with Ehood Barack, former Israeli prime minister and former head of Israeli military intelligence. emails ordering hidden cameras disguised as everyday objects, requests for wearable spy cameras targeting powerful individuals.
At some point, you have to ask, "What exactly are we looking at?" Because this does not look like a lone sex criminal who happened to just know some famous people. Now it looks like someone who had access, someone who had protection, someone who had infrastructure, operational capability, hidden surveillance, international financial networks, political insulation, and inexplicable leniency for years.
And here's the part that matters most. Blackmail only works if someone powerful can use it. If Epstein was gathering comprom and the evidence strongly suggests he was, then the question isn't whether the material existed. The question is who had access to it, who benefited benefited from it, who was protected by it, and who is still protected. Because if Epstein was running a blackmail operation tied to intelligence, whether US, Israeli, or both, then this wasn't just about sex crimes. It was about influence. It was about leverage over presidents, over senators, over billionaires, over foreign leaders. It means our nation is under blackmail and people at the highest echelons of power have committed treason against our country. And it would explain why so many in power seem to have zero desire to expose the criminal blackmail ring and instead are calling it a hoax. Except it's not looking very much like a hoax.
