The Culture War - Tim Pool - Epstein Files Ignite BILLIONAIRE PANIC, Trump Says MOVE ON, Democrat Donors EXPOSED

00:00:00.000 Amazon presents Juan vs. Baby.

00:00:05.000 Drunk on milk and power, this bundle of sheer chaos only comes with three settings.

00:00:13.000 Crying, pooping, and crying while pooping. 0.60

00:00:17.000 But Juan shopped on Amazon and saved on pacifiers, diaper cream, and a colossal bag of coffee beans.

00:00:24.000 Hear that, baby? Juan just rocked you to sleep.

00:00:29.000 Save the everyday with deals from Amazon.

00:00:32.000 Epstein files are now being released slowly but surely as people dig through them,

00:00:37.000 we're learning more and more about the deep seedy underbelly of these billionaires,

00:00:42.000 these donors, these crooks, these criminals.

00:00:45.000 And there's one question everybody has on their mind,

00:00:48.000 and it's why aren't these people being arrested?

00:00:53.000 Seriously.

00:00:54.000 Donald Trump is the president.

00:00:56.000 He said we should all move on from it, but it's not a satisfactory response.

00:01:01.000 Now, his name appears quite a bit in many, many allegations.

00:01:05.000 But even PBS is saying, guys, we don't actually have any evidence of Trump,

00:01:09.000 Elon, or others in this circle engaging in trafficking or going to Epstein's island,

00:01:15.000 unlike many other people.

00:01:18.000 Bill Gates, who is accused of, I gotta be very light here because I know sometimes parents will watch these videos of their children around,

00:01:25.000 but he acquired an infection, it is purported, and then gave it to his wife and she divorced him.

00:01:34.000 Look, I'm not here to try and cut Trump any slack on this.

00:01:39.000 He has flubbed this whole Epstein thing from the get-go, calling it a hoax when it's clearly not.

00:01:46.000 What we have learned is actually quite terrifying.

00:01:50.000 There are videos of children, young girls, guys, this is dark stuff, in bathrooms.

00:01:57.000 I'm not going to go into greater detail because you already know what we are learning.

00:02:02.000 Comments about having young girls, and there were people who came out and tried to play this passive defense of Epstein saying,

00:02:09.000 actually, the girls that he had were all 16, 17. 0.57

00:02:13.000 Yeah, that's not true.

00:02:14.000 It's not true.

00:02:16.000 And more and more information is coming out.

00:02:19.000 Well, Bill Gates' ex-wife has responded to the allegations, but this is where things run deep.

00:02:25.000 We can sit here and just have a laugh and say, it appears that Bill Gates acquired an infection.

00:02:31.000 Or, we can take a look at what the email actually was, and it does appear to have been a blackmail attempt.

00:02:38.000 Basically, Epstein saying to Bill Gates, you work for me now.

00:02:42.000 Otherwise, I'm going to go tell everybody that you got, if you know what I mean, from some ladies of the night.

00:02:48.000 Now, we don't know for sure, but we are learning quite a bit about these billionaires as they rip each other to shreds,

00:02:54.000 accusing each other of being the worst, most morally reprehensible thing you can be.

00:03:02.000 But we don't know what's true.

00:03:04.000 What I can say is, despite the accusations against Trump and Elon, Trump's done a pretty bad job,

00:03:08.000 but Elon's done a very good job in calling out these individuals saying, we should get these files released.

00:03:13.000 And many people have pointed to emails where Elon is saying, I want to come party with Epstein, but he never did.

00:03:18.000 So I'm not here again to cut anybody some slack.

00:03:21.000 And I do think that a lot of the allegations against Trump, even the stuff we see in these files, are largely BS.

00:03:27.000 Listen, guys, I know people are going to get mad right off the bat, but these are allegations from 2025.

00:03:32.000 Like, there are FBI crime tips about Trump doing really messed up stuff that came a few months ago.

00:03:40.000 That is not core crux Epstein operations.

00:03:43.000 That is in the heart of the political conflict we are facing right now.

00:03:47.000 Some random criminal informant with no corroboration accused Trump of very serious wrongdoing.

00:03:51.000 And there's not much to be said about claims like that other than it's hyper partisan.

00:03:56.000 I mean, they arrested the guy.

00:03:57.000 It's hard for me to draw up, make an assessment, but I'm not trying to cut any slack here.

00:04:01.000 Trump has been miserable on the release of these files, and he does appear in files going back to 2015, 16.

00:04:07.000 And there's some nasty stuff.

00:04:09.000 But in the end, again, even PBS says we are not seeing it at Trump the way we see it at other people.

00:04:15.000 So let's start by listening to what Bill and Melinda Gates have to say.

00:04:19.000 And then, oh boy, we're gonna have to run through this implosion. 0.98

00:04:24.000 The millionaires and the billionaires are ripping each other apart over this, being exposed for being dirty, disgusting individuals. 0.97

00:04:31.000 And we've got Noam Chomsky of all people. 0.93

00:04:34.000 We've got Democrat donor Reid Hoffman.

00:04:37.000 This is getting wild.

00:04:40.000 But let me just start by saying this.

00:04:42.000 The conspiracies were all true.

00:04:46.000 Seriously.

00:04:48.000 Makes you wonder about Pizzagate, right?

00:04:52.000 Right?

00:04:53.000 Now, I do want to add one more into the mix before we jump into the beginning.

00:04:56.000 All these journalists and corporate shills who are like, there's nothing to see here with Epstein.

00:05:02.000 Take a look at the ABC story broken by James O'Keefe.

00:05:05.000 Where Amy Rohrbeck, I think her name was, was caught on a hot mic saying they had Epstein dead to rights. 0.63

00:05:10.000 And it was covered up by the network.

00:05:12.000 Where are these people now?

00:05:15.000 Interesting, huh?

00:05:16.000 And there's another question.

00:05:18.000 Why are these files actually getting released now?

00:05:21.000 Kibano.

00:05:22.000 Who benefits?

00:05:24.000 Before we get started with everything, my friends, you got to go to TimCast.com and join our Discord server.

00:05:53.000 Get in the community, share what you find.

00:05:55.000 This is how we win.

00:05:57.000 And don't forget to pick up a nice bag of cast brew coffee.

00:06:08.000 On that tweet, with a new email you found circling that that billionaire was lying.

00:06:13.000 See how I'm trying to tie in my product to the story we're talking about?

00:06:17.000 And it doesn't really work, but hey, buy your coffee.

00:06:20.000 How about that?

00:06:21.000 We got this story from The Independent, my friends.

00:06:24.000 Again, smash the subscribe button, like, share this video with everybody, and follow me on X and Instagram at TimCast.

00:06:31.000 But sharing really does help.

00:06:32.000 The Independent reports, Melinda Gates speaks out after latest Epstein files release details allegations against Bill Gates.

00:06:40.000 Melinda Gates said the case brings back memories of some very, very painful times in her marriage.

00:06:46.000 Well, my friends, we've got the clip right here.

00:06:49.000 And I hope you enjoy this.

00:06:53.000 You know, part of me does still feel a little bad for Bill Gates.

00:06:57.000 But, you know, how bad can you really feel for a guy who was partying with Epstein and had this happen to him?

00:07:03.000 And what I mean is, like, guys, he's a bad guy, but here's his wife.

00:07:08.000 Like, come on.

00:07:09.000 You know, he deserves it.

00:07:10.000 What can I say?

00:07:11.000 The emails in the files suggest that Bill Gates had additional affairs and that he tried to get medication to treat a sexually transmitted infection.

00:07:20.000 And that he was going to give you the medicine without you knowing.

00:07:24.000 His representative has said all of this is false.

00:07:28.000 It is not on you to have to respond to the details of that alleged behavior.

00:07:33.000 But I wonder what your dominant emotion is when you read these news articles with these details.

00:07:45.000 Sad.

00:07:46.000 Just unbelievable sadness.

00:07:49.000 Unbelievable sadness, right?

00:07:51.000 And, again, I'm able to take my own sadness and look at those young girls and say, my God, how did that happen to those girls, right?

00:08:06.000 And so, for me, it's just sadness.

00:08:09.000 Sadness for, you know, I left my marriage.

00:08:13.000 I had to leave my marriage.

00:08:14.000 I wanted to leave my marriage.

00:08:16.000 I felt I needed to eventually leave the foundation.

00:08:19.000 So it's just sad.

00:08:20.000 That's the truth, right?

00:08:22.000 And it's kind of like, at least for me, I've been able to move on in life.

00:08:27.000 Yes.

00:08:28.000 But what about your ex-husband?

00:08:30.000 Bill Gates says he regrets every minute he spent with Epstein and denies he got a disease.

00:08:35.000 Here's the clip where Bill Gates is responding to the accusations.

00:08:39.000 He knew a lot of very rich people and he was saying he could get them to give money to global health.

00:08:46.000 You know, in retrospect, that was a dead end. 0.89

00:08:49.000 And I was foolish to spend time with him.

00:08:51.000 I was one of many people who regret ever knowing him.

00:08:54.000 You've no doubt seen the allegations, including some of them from the last 24 to 48 hours.

00:08:59.000 Are they true?

00:09:01.000 No, apparently Jeffrey wrote an email to himself.

00:09:06.000 That email was never sent.

00:09:08.000 The email is, you know, false.

00:09:11.000 So I don't know what his thinking was there.

00:09:13.000 It just reminds me, you know, every minute I spent with him, I regret and I, you know, apologize that I did that.

00:09:20.000 The problem is some of the things that he has sent and some of the information about other people that has come up in those files has been true.

00:09:28.000 Why would he do this and say this about you, do you think?

00:09:31.000 You know, it's factually true that I was only at dinners, you know, I never went to the island, I never met any women.

00:09:38.000 And so, you know, the more that comes out, the more clear it'll be that although the time was a mistake, it had nothing to do with that kind of behavior.

00:09:47.000 I don't believe it for two seconds.

00:09:49.000 I don't.

00:09:50.000 This is a guy who's partying with Epstein and everything we know about Epstein is true.

00:09:54.000 Epstein's got there's there's thousands of emails where he's talking about young girls.

00:09:57.000 He's talking about parties.

00:09:58.000 He's talking about inappropriate sexual things, the other prominent personalities and podcasters.

00:10:02.000 And you've got Reid Hoffman talking about partying.

00:10:05.000 And I think it was Reid, it might have been someone else saying they're going to buy ice cream for the girls and you got to try it.

00:10:11.000 Guys, everybody knows what Epstein was doing.

00:10:14.000 And this idea that Bill Gates is like, well, I regret going and partying with him and these accusations that these things happen.

00:10:19.000 It's just totally false.

00:10:20.000 I don't buy it.

00:10:21.000 And, you know, the challenge is, let me make sure I clear those people commenting being like, what do you feel bad about?

00:10:29.000 Because like his wife is going on and being like, I guess what I feel bad is their marriage is destroyed.

00:10:35.000 And that's why I'm like, you know what?

00:10:38.000 You know what?

00:10:39.000 You know, it is sad.

00:10:40.000 Imagine being with someone you're married and then this is how it all comes crashing down.

00:10:45.000 But again, I got to walk that back, I guess, because it's it's hard to watch these clips and actually feel bad at all.

00:10:51.000 I guess I more so feel bad about the state of being in this country where this is what these people do.

00:10:57.000 And I'm sad for the concept of marriage because I can't imagine that.

00:11:01.000 You know, the only thing that matters to me right now in life is my family.

00:11:05.000 Not the only, but like the principal thing to see a marriage destroyed because of this scumbaggery.

00:11:11.000 Here's a post where it gets interesting.

00:11:13.000 Scottish says Epstein's draft emailed Bill Gates.

00:11:16.000 That's blackmail.

00:11:17.000 He's shaking Gates down for $30 million to take quite about an STD Gates presumably had and pass to his wife.

00:11:24.000 It looks like Epstein was on Gates's payroll.

00:11:26.000 There was a similar email to Prince Andrew about a salary that wasn't being paid.

00:11:30.000 It seems Epstein sold himself as a fixer for the rich and powerful like Roy Cohn without a law degree.

00:11:36.000 These people went to Epstein to fix their problems, quiet antibiotics for an STD, no paper trail, or to get what they wanted, young women.

00:11:44.000 Then he turned that info into leverage and used it to squeeze them.

00:11:48.000 The bigger question, was Epstein working alone or was he a foreign state asset?

00:11:52.000 Was he working from Assad? 0.59

00:11:53.000 There's some circumstantial smoke there.

00:11:55.000 Family links through his father-in-law, fake passports, unexplained wealth, and more.

00:11:59.000 So here's the truth.

00:12:01.000 This is an Epstein, this is an Epstein, this is an email to Epstein from Epstein.

00:12:06.000 This is 7-18-2013, and he basically says that Bill Gates has abandoned him to protect his reputation and et cetera, et cetera.

00:12:14.000 He said, you did agree to send a letter of recommendation to a future employer, ask for one, blah, blah, blah.

00:12:18.000 And then when you get closer down, they start talking about the things that he may have done.

00:12:25.000 And so when you come here, it says, to add insult to injury, you then subsequently, with tears in your eyes, implore me to please delete the emails regarding your STD, your request that I provide you antibiotics that you can surreptitiously give to Melinda, and the description of your, uh-uh.

00:12:41.000 You also made it clear to me that I am not to refer to redacted, as that is another topic that must remain between the two of us in return for all of these requests, which I would have done without a second thought.

00:12:54.540 Interesting.

00:12:55.560 Now, I don't know what this actually is.

00:12:58.560 He does mention, for $30 million in today's dollars, terms and conditions to be agreed, that's what I would have done.

00:13:04.960 He's basically, here's what he says.

00:13:07.080 He says, in that regard, I suggest I buy you the house that you had your heart set on, and in addition to five years of severance, we'll buy you out of the investment contract we had agreed, 30% to 40% of a $100 million partnership for $30 million in today's dollars.

00:13:21.160 I don't know that it's blackmail.

00:13:24.340 And what that means is, this might be Epstein legitimately complaining, saying, Bill, you promised me $100 million, you did these things, I helped you. 0.83

00:13:33.360 That's how creepy and gross these people are. 0.70

00:13:35.780 Well, check this out. 0.90

00:13:38.000 Mario Noffle says, FBI got tipped in 09 that Epstein's border ranch was routing trafficked kids to the East Coast.

00:13:44.480 An email sent to FBI Director Mueller in 09 claimed Epstein's Zorro ranch sat close to the U.S.-Mexico border, where most trafficked children are routed prior to being dispersed to the East Coast, yet he wasn't arrested for traffic until a decade later.

00:13:55.920 Not only that, there are other emails that suggest there are dead bodies of trafficked girls on his property.

00:14:02.800 This is crazy.

00:14:05.780 This is crazy.

00:14:08.180 Media-ites.

00:14:09.000 This is where things start getting spicy, and it all starts breaking down.

00:14:13.880 CBS News scraps 60 minutes rerun after interviewee named in Epstein files.

00:14:18.760 Uh-oh.

00:14:18.960 Researcher Peter Atia, after newly released documents, they say the segment first broadcast in October had been scheduled to air again.

00:14:26.400 They're actually talking about firing.

00:14:28.340 The dude's been named as a CBS News contributor just last week by Barry Weiss, but the interview conducted by Nora O'Donnell predates the formal relationship with the network.

00:14:35.640 The segment is still available on the YouTube channel.

00:14:38.760 His name appears roughly 1,700 times across the files.

00:14:43.240 Many of the emails date from mid-2010s after Epstein's 2008 conviction, but before his 2019 arrest.

00:14:48.700 Some exchanges contain medical discussions, and others feature crude remarks.

00:14:52.480 He addressed the message in a lengthy public apology, posted to X, apologizing for emails to Epstein he described as embarrassing, tasteless, and indefensible.

00:15:02.440 Well, my friends, it's not just him.

00:15:05.940 We've got J.D. Vance torching gross and incestuous elites named in the Epstein dump, but defends Trump.

00:15:14.220 Now, I gotta say this.

00:15:16.000 It is not about cutting slack for Donald Trump.

00:15:18.900 I say it's not for the fourth time.

00:15:20.280 It's that what we're getting from these files that tip the bulk of what we're seeing posted by liberals, saying this proves it,

00:15:27.060 is that someone in 2024 and 5, or multiple persons, were contacting feds saying, here's things Trump has done.

00:15:34.800 The problem is, these are the same people who falsely convicted Trump of felony, felony, what was it?

00:15:40.960 I'm sorry.

00:15:42.060 It was, what's the word I'm thinking of?

00:15:45.100 It was fabricating business documents.

00:15:46.700 They called it a felony.

00:15:47.540 It was actually a misdemeanor and a falsification of business records.

00:15:51.180 There we go.

00:15:52.060 These weren't felonies.

00:15:53.460 So at the same time, they're trying to put Donald Trump in prison.

00:15:56.400 They're arresting his lawyers.

00:15:58.260 Someone calls in and says, Trump is friends with Epstein.

00:16:00.500 I'm sorry.

00:16:01.360 Your credibility is shot in that regard.

00:16:03.520 So I'm not trying to defend Trump over this. 0.86

00:16:05.760 He's done a miserable job.

00:16:06.700 And I have questions about why they're not prosecuting these people.

00:16:09.640 But J.D. Vance is going after these elites.

00:16:12.820 Bill Gates, Bill and Hillary Clinton, who are now going to testify.

00:16:16.420 We want answers.

00:16:17.900 We want answers.

00:16:19.200 Let's roll.

00:16:19.800 What do we got here?

00:16:20.620 What do we got here?

00:16:21.500 Who are the millionaires and the billionaires getting cooked by this?

00:16:23.400 Jeffrey Epstein boasted about wild dinner.

00:16:26.400 With Mark Zuckerberg, Reid Hoffman, in unsealed 2015 email.

00:16:31.640 Ooh, they got Zuckerberg now.

00:16:34.760 The New York Post says, Epstein once boasted about meeting Zuckerberg, Reid Hoffman, Elon Musk, and Peter Thiel.

00:16:39.840 And what he described as a wild dinner.

00:16:41.840 An email released by the DOJ showed.

00:16:44.020 Epstein replied, not sure yet.

00:16:45.540 I had dinner with Zuckerberg.

00:16:47.300 You know what the funniest thing about this?

00:16:48.580 It says MU equals K. 0.60

00:16:51.100 Someone made a funny meme where they were like, here's a picture of Epstein's keyboard and it's all equal signs.

00:16:56.240 Because for some reason, the dude put equal signs just everywhere.

00:16:59.840 And I wonder if it was to prevent things from being searched, to be completely honest.

00:17:02.980 Because people will search for asterisks.

00:17:04.740 If someone's going to break into your files and look for things, they're going to put MU asterisk K, MUS asterisk, Musk.

00:17:11.200 They're going to try and find those emails.

00:17:12.800 You do equal signs.

00:17:14.020 Maybe it covers it up.

00:17:15.360 But wait, there's more.

00:17:17.020 What I do want to add to that about Elon Musk and Zuckerberg in the meeting, Elon Musk has said they've only met in certain contexts.

00:17:26.520 He never went to his island.

00:17:28.260 And Epstein did go and party at other people's venues and places too.

00:17:32.840 There was a statement made recently where they said it's not a crime to party with Epstein and Democrats are claiming it is.

00:17:37.020 And let's just stop. 0.97

00:17:37.900 Guys, I'm not playing a stupid game where somebody was at a party and Epstein was there and they're like, oh, that proves it. 0.97

00:17:45.000 There are legitimate questions about individuals who are trying to party with Epstein post sex trafficking conviction or soliciting underage prostitutes is what he got convicted for. 0.96

00:17:56.380 So if like in 2016, you're asking these questions, I wonder.

00:18:01.300 Now Epstein's response to that was that apparently he was trying to do an interview where his talking point was these were mischaracterized and he's paid his debt to society and that's it.

00:18:10.700 The only problem is he didn't and it's still happening.

00:18:13.860 And whether or not people knew that, that's not somebody you want to associate with.

00:18:17.820 But I'm going to let y'all in on a secret.

00:18:19.580 Power attracts.

00:18:20.600 That's it.

00:18:21.780 You know, there are people that will say anything to earn the favor of people in power.

00:18:27.220 They'll do it.

00:18:28.220 And so when Epstein is a known diddler, there are people who are like, well, I don't care. 0.84

00:18:33.060 He's worth $500 million and I want money.

00:18:36.440 And so they overlook that for some reason.

00:18:39.480 Like, and I don't mean, I don't mean that like for some vagaries. 0.90

00:18:42.180 I'm saying there is a reason by which they're willing to overlook the disgusting nature of this man.

00:18:47.880 Raw Story says, Dem donor targeted by Trump explains his Epstein connections.

00:18:51.640 I very much regret.

00:18:53.140 Well, Raw Story, a liberal publication is very nice.

00:18:56.480 A prominent Democratic donor late Tuesday night tried to contain the fallout when a recent Epstein file release revealed his connections to the deceased convicted child sex abuser.

00:19:03.920 This Donald Trump has repeatedly leveled allegations against LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, who has for years tried to distance himself from Epstein's legacy.

00:19:12.840 Late last year, Trump even ordered a Justice Department investigation into Hoffman in connection to the exploits of the financier.

00:19:19.640 Quote, I only knew Jeffrey Epstein because of a fundraising relationship with MIT, which I very much regret.

00:19:24.840 But in 2019, I told Axios the last man I had with him was in 2015, but I was mistaken.

00:19:29.840 As according to calendar entries, I've become aware there were additional fundraising meetings in 2016 and 2018.

00:19:35.200 These meetings were all coordinated by Joey Ito, then director of the MIT Media Lab.

00:19:39.940 April 8th, 2016, meeting in Palo Alto.

00:19:42.100 He lists a bunch of them.

00:19:43.580 He further added,

00:19:44.220 Now it's entirely possible, again, I'm not trying to protect anybody, lock them all up for all I care, but it's entirely possible that people like Hoffman were partying with girls that were of age, right?

00:20:10.720 We don't know for sure, and we know that Epstein was underage trafficking.

00:20:15.100 He was convicted of it, and there are videos he's got of children that it's messed up stuff.

00:20:19.800 That's why I ain't cutting you any slack, Reid Hoffman.

00:20:23.480 I'm trying to be reasonable because we want to understand the truth.

00:20:26.900 The question is, were there people who went to party with Epstein thinking there's going to be adult female hookers, right? 0.57

00:20:34.260 Still morally reprehensible, but substantially more legal.

00:20:38.540 How many of these people knew exactly what was going on?

00:20:41.520 Considering what Epstein had been charged with, I ain't cutting Reid Hoffman any slack on this.

00:20:46.020 I'm saying, let's follow the evidence, dig through the emails, and see what we can find.

00:20:50.300 Reid Hoffman claims he went to Epstein Island more than once to raise money for MIT.

00:20:54.020 MIT has a $24.7 billion endowment.

00:20:57.880 Makes sense, huh?

00:20:59.440 There's more.

00:21:00.600 Reid Hoffman visited Epstein's Island multiple times, yet legacy media stays dead silent.

00:21:06.240 Why?

00:21:06.460 Because he's a top Democrat donor, and media is just the Democrat Party's propaganda wing.

00:21:12.220 Elon Musk never visited the island, and yet they unleashed nonstop smears against him.

00:21:16.520 Here's an email from Jeffrey Epstein to Reid Hoffman saying,

00:21:20.020 Okay, come to Island Ranch, let's play. 0.99

00:21:23.520 This is from Reid Hoffman who said,

00:21:24.500 So here's the first email from J-E-E iTunes, I'm assuming it's Epstein. 0.93

00:21:30.860 One of my friends, Reid Hoffman, has spent a hundred on Dems.

00:21:36.000 Let's say something, our membership.

00:21:38.260 Reid Hoffman says, probably not, China visits, etc., possibly next year.

00:21:41.920 And then he emailed Reid Hoffman, come to the island, let's play.

00:21:44.940 Elon Musk says, target emoji.

00:21:47.560 Here we go.

00:21:48.260 Not Jerome Powell says, rest in peace.

00:21:50.620 Reid Hoffman posts this.

00:21:51.940 From Epstein, to Epstein from Elon Musk.

00:21:54.920 It says, the first email is from Epstein to Musk saying,

00:21:58.020 How many people will you be for the heli to Ireland? 0.99

00:22:01.760 And Elon says, probably just to Lula and me,

00:22:05.300 what day and night will be the wildest party on your island?

00:22:08.640 Elon says, the big difference between you and me, Reid, is that you went and I did not.

00:22:11.800 In fact, you went multiple times, first time was maybe a mistake, second time, but not the second time you went.

00:22:17.900 And Elon said, he didn't actually go, and his intentions were not anything related to underage girls, because he was with his wife.

00:22:24.320 There's more.

00:22:26.100 Mario Knopfel says, Reid Hoffman lied about extent of the relationship.

00:22:30.260 Emails show contact through 2018.

00:22:32.440 LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman claimed he cut ties with Epstein in 2015, and only had a few interactions.

00:22:37.460 The new DOJ dump says otherwise.

00:22:40.680 Emails show visits to Epstein's island, his New Mexico ranch, and overnights at his Manhattan townhouse.

00:22:46.360 Communications continue through 2016, 17, 18, including Skype calls and dinners.

00:22:50.640 One 2019 calendar entry mentions a meeting with Hoffman.

00:22:55.040 In 2014, Hoffman emailed Epstein about sending gifts, quote,

00:22:58.140 ice cream for him to try and if not, for the girls.

00:23:01.220 He also sent something that may strike your funny bone for the island.

00:23:03.820 In 2016, Epstein found Hoffman's passport in a gift bag and returned it.

00:23:08.640 Excellent, Hoffman replied.

00:23:10.360 Epstein even offered to help Hoffman buy a private plane.

00:23:13.160 I will hold your hand along the way.

00:23:15.420 Hoffman now sits on Microsoft's board and just published an op-ed

00:23:18.300 calling Silicon Valley leaders cowards for not speaking out against Trump.

00:23:21.700 The guy who lied about his Epstein ties for years is lecturing others about moral courage.

00:23:27.220 Indeed, my friends.

00:23:29.020 So here's where it gets interesting.

00:23:30.220 Bill Gates says, it was an email to himself.

00:23:32.680 It never happened.

00:23:33.680 It's fake.

00:23:34.520 You had a guy on your board.

00:23:36.020 Yes, spare me.

00:23:37.460 But guys, just wait.

00:23:39.880 There's more.

00:23:41.400 Elon Musk's response in that initial about him being there with his wife.

00:23:45.340 He says more.

00:23:46.180 And he says, as the email shows, I obviously didn't anticipate anything actually shady

00:23:49.940 as I was bringing my wife at the time to Lula.

00:23:52.260 Nonetheless, unlike you, I came to my senses and declined to go.

00:23:55.860 Epstein tried to get me to go to the island so many times that eventually I just blocked him.

00:24:00.700 Interesting.

00:24:01.100 Well, my friends, here's where it gets real fun.

00:24:06.060 Newly released files shed new light on Chomsky and Epstein relationship.

00:24:10.200 That's right.

00:24:11.280 Noam Chomsky.

00:24:12.900 Oh my God. 0.98

00:24:14.040 You guys, this is the nastiest.

00:24:16.720 This is where things get really messed up.

00:24:21.100 The close friend, friendship that Noam Chomsky maintained with Jeffrey Epstein continued being

00:24:24.920 detailed extensively among millions of investigative records pertaining to the late convicted sex

00:24:29.020 offender recently released by the U.S. Justice Department, including Chomsky, quote,

00:24:32.960 fantasizing about the Caribbean island.

00:24:35.320 Dude, the conspiracies were all true and they lied and they tried to cover it up.

00:24:44.960 They were all true.

00:24:46.680 There were people coming out saying that I mentioned this.

00:24:50.500 It was just it was 16 and 17 year olds.

00:24:53.540 No, it was children.

00:24:54.920 It was.

00:24:55.800 And the more we learn about it, the more we learn about what these people are doing,

00:25:00.660 the more we have questions about who in the media covered it up and why were they trying

00:25:04.560 to cover it up?

00:25:05.900 Why were they spreading lies?

00:25:07.960 Well, the pitch I gave way back when, like a few years ago, is that there are agents and

00:25:13.400 there's intelligence agencies and they work for the boss and the boss cuts a deal and he

00:25:17.960 goes to the powerful billionaires and says, you work for me now.

00:25:20.480 Otherwise, the Epstein files get released.

00:25:22.380 Donald Trump doesn't want the files released for a variety of reasons.

00:25:24.740 His name appears in them some 5,300 times with insane accusations going back to like 2013

00:25:30.920 or earlier.

00:25:32.380 Now, I do think a lot of these lack credibility.

00:25:34.820 Trump, much like Elon, does appear in this, but I don't think Trump was going to the island

00:25:39.440 or doing anything like Reid Hoffman was doing.

00:25:41.500 That being said, why is Trump not arresting these people and why is he covering this up?

00:25:46.660 There is no credit to be given to this man.

00:25:48.520 Again, Donald Trump should be arresting these people and the argument then is, as I've made

00:25:53.900 it, is that in these files, we're going to find powerful individuals and Trump wants

00:25:57.560 leverage over them.

00:25:58.740 He wants the blackmail that Epstein had.

00:26:01.140 Well, that's wielding the one ring.

00:26:03.180 It's a power you can't control.

00:26:04.940 It'll blow up in your face and now we're seeing it.

00:26:07.940 The questions I ultimately have is, why are they actually releasing this stuff?

00:26:13.060 Maybe it's one big distraction.

00:26:15.320 I'll put it like this.

00:26:16.300 Here's a theory for you.

00:26:17.100 The real Epstein documents, the truly incriminating evidence, videos or otherwise, they claim

00:26:21.720 they don't have, probably got destroyed a long time ago to cover up for these billionaires.

00:26:26.380 And now they're putting these files out, which are damning, but not actionable.

00:26:31.080 What we heard from, I think this was Dan Bongino.

00:26:33.380 He said, you've got, it might've been cash, but you've got videos, you've got photos, but

00:26:38.180 none of it is actually definitive proof of, of trafficking on the parts of these individuals.

00:26:42.140 Epstein and Ghislaine, yes, but these other individuals, my theory is they're putting

00:26:46.720 this out to be like, yes, yes, it's all true.

00:26:49.540 But the real damning stuff, evidence of actual crimes being committed, videos were destroyed

00:26:53.760 a long time ago.

00:26:54.540 The New York Times says the DOJ looked into sexual misconduct allegations against Trump

00:27:01.360 in connection with Epstein, but did not find credible information to merit further investigation.

00:27:05.240 Todd Blanche, the deputy AG said on Sunday, his comments, which made on CNN state of the

00:27:09.260 union came less than 48 hours of the Trump admin released about 3 million pages of documents

00:27:13.060 collected by the DOJ as part of its years long investigation at Epstein who died in 2019.

00:27:17.040 They said the files are peppered with references to Trump who had been a close friend of Epstein's

00:27:21.480 until the early two thousands.

00:27:23.060 Well, Mr. Trump has repeatedly downplayed the relationship.

00:27:25.520 The two men bonded over the pursuit of young women.

00:27:27.880 Mr. Trump has denied any wrongdoing in connection to Mr. Epstein.

00:27:31.320 Guys, I'm going to be honest.

00:27:33.080 If you came to me and said that Donald Trump was going to the Island and doing stuff with

00:27:36.340 underage girls, I'm not really going to believe it. 1.00

00:27:37.960 Sorry.

00:27:38.820 There are these weird accusations about Trump going in like dressing rooms and doing awful things

00:27:43.040 to little girls.

00:27:43.480 And I'm like, a lot of these allegations come in the past few years while we're in a hyper

00:27:47.300 partisan battle.

00:27:48.500 But if you go back to the early two thousands and you listen to what Donald Trump says and 0.90

00:27:52.700 who he was, man, if you come to me and tell me that Epstein's procured hookers for Trump,

00:27:57.980 I'd be like, eh, it's believable.

00:27:59.700 Listen, I think Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump.

00:28:03.020 I think Trump is doing generally good things as president.

00:28:06.040 I think his family are all very good people.

00:28:08.720 His kids are all very great, straightforward individuals.

00:28:10.960 Trump, he's got his vices and he's got his failings.

00:28:13.960 I don't look at Trump and think like he's the beacon of moral virtue.

00:28:18.540 I'm like, eh, we're getting some net positives in government, but maybe we can do better.

00:28:22.280 The point is, of course, Trump makes mistakes, does bad things, and is a far from perfect

00:28:27.100 individual.

00:28:27.680 And I've said that the whole time, even before I voted for him, I said, this is a guy who's

00:28:32.220 got serious moral failings.

00:28:33.600 But I don't believe the worst of it.

00:28:36.540 If you come to me and say Trump is a generally unethical guy who's had multiple wives, I'll

00:28:41.180 be like, well, you know, it's hard to argue against when he talks about grabbing women

00:28:45.120 by the hoo-hoo because they let you do it.

00:28:47.100 But then when you take a look at these more insane claims, I'm like, this is sci-fi Trump

00:28:52.820 derangement level stuff in these files.

00:28:55.480 That being said, from the Hill, Trump says country should move on from Epstein files after

00:29:01.500 latest release.

00:29:02.740 No, we shouldn't.

00:29:03.780 We should criminally charge the people involved and go after them.

00:29:07.300 And when we, I mean, we're looking at, at the bare minimum, if the evidence has truly

00:29:12.960 been destroyed and we can't get some of these big Democrat donors or other individuals, they

00:29:17.540 should be fired from their jobs and ostracized and shunned, okay?

00:29:21.260 Because this stuff, I think, is circumstantial enough.

00:29:24.940 But wait, here's where it really gets bad.

00:29:28.400 An email from Redacted.

00:29:30.180 Why?

00:29:30.700 To Jeffrey Epstein, thank you for a fun night.

00:29:34.760 Your littlest girl was a little naughty.

00:29:37.100 Now, I'm not going to sit here.

00:29:39.480 I'm going to tell you this.

00:29:40.500 I want to, I approach this.

00:29:41.600 I tried to from a legal perspective.

00:29:43.200 If you go to a court, they're going to be like, we don't know that means underage.

00:29:47.300 I think any sane and rational person in any jury is going to be like, we know what Epstein

00:29:51.380 was doing.

00:29:51.880 And this is 2014 and they are redacting the name of an individual who apparently was either

00:29:57.600 with a legitimate trafficked woman or at worst, a child.

00:30:02.100 Why is that name redacted?

00:30:03.800 Why did the DOJ do it? 0.65

00:30:05.720 See, that's where Trump does not get through on this one.

00:30:08.660 And people need to bring this up because there was literally no excuse.

00:30:12.760 You can scream and cry that Trump is doing great on immigration, great on USAID, great

00:30:15.960 on foreign policy.

00:30:16.760 And then you come to this and say, and his administration is also redacting the names

00:30:20.460 of what appears to be pedophiles.

00:30:22.280 A country that would utilize pedophiles, the highest level for power is a country that 0.95

00:30:35.280 will eventually collapse.

00:30:36.840 And we are seeing the fracturing happen now because you can't tell the American people

00:30:41.180 you will cover this up and expect them to grant you legitimacy.

00:30:44.640 So is the purpose just to prove you are an illegitimate government who will protect pedophiles?

00:30:50.640 Apparently that's the case.

00:30:52.280 The fascinating thing is that in the 2010s, when prominent conspiracy theorists were saying

00:30:56.840 that our government was being run by, or there are powerful people who were pedophiles

00:31:01.560 running things, and they were told they were liars in the press, we now know it is true. 0.80

00:31:08.280 We've got this here.

00:31:10.300 This is a federal FBI investigation where a criminal informant said Donald Trump was,

00:31:16.440 can we actually look at the, how do I actually view post?

00:31:21.720 There we go.

00:31:22.280 This is that he was, uh, that he was an informant compromised by Mossad.

00:31:27.340 Now here's the, here's the challenge with this.

00:31:29.680 As I've mentioned with all of these other things, these are post Trump conflict CIs after Epstein's

00:31:38.340 already dead.

00:31:39.800 Accusations are made about Trump.

00:31:41.180 And the challenge with this is, I got no problem saying, look at the document, read it, pause

00:31:46.880 the video, all of that stuff, believe what you want to believe.

00:31:49.020 The challenge is we know they tried locking up, they impeached him, they accused him of

00:31:51.960 Russiagate.

00:31:52.520 They made up so much stuff, it makes it impossible to understand what is actually going on.

00:31:57.260 But I'm not sitting here to just say Trump's innocent, okay?

00:31:59.960 I think he's covering this stuff up and I got problems.

00:32:03.580 I even got a post here from old Krasenstein.

00:32:05.580 He says, Epstein files clearly showed that the Southern district of Florida offered a

00:32:09.200 prosecution agreement to Epstein and four co-conspirators, as well as other potential

00:32:13.120 co-conspirators, but the Trump DOJ redacted their names.

00:32:16.100 Could it be because Donald Trump was one of them?

00:32:17.940 I'm going to go ahead and say, no, we, well, I mean, it's a possibility, I guess, but I

00:32:23.940 don't think so.

00:32:25.560 Regardless, where we can start reasonably, Mr. Krasenstein, if you actually want to move

00:32:30.760 forward on this one, coming out and just saying Trump did it is not going to earn you any favors

00:32:34.720 from anybody on the right.

00:32:35.500 We can say this, we all agree these should not be redacted, should be unredacted, and

00:32:41.300 we want these people to face accountability in the public and in the courts.

00:32:45.500 So where I think the left and right can come together on this one is not to just say Trump

00:32:48.980 did it or Reid Hoffman did it.

00:32:50.920 Certainly there's articles by all means, believe what you want to believe about each of these

00:32:54.080 individuals.

00:32:54.680 How about we unredact the names?

00:32:56.500 We all agree on that one, right?

00:32:58.620 I wish.

00:33:00.060 And then of course, Steve Bannon, Steve Bannon appears in these emails, photos, videos.

00:33:07.900 He interviewed Epstein and their questions about his connection and gifts he may have received.

00:33:12.220 Now they do want to say no direct evidence of trust Trump, Musk, or Lutnik participating

00:33:17.360 in trafficking or abuse have emerged from the files and inclusion in the documents does

00:33:21.340 not directly prove any sort of illegal activity.

00:33:23.680 Some files detail friendly texts between Bannon and Epstein, including one in 2019, where Epstein

00:33:28.040 asks Bannon if he received an Apple watch.

00:33:29.640 He signed up for Christmas.

00:33:30.660 A few days later, invites Bannon to come join him in New York.

00:33:33.560 And he said in Texas, building a wall.
