Latest / The Vault: The Epstein Files / Inside Jeffrey Epstein’s Draft Will Featuring Larry Summers and Jes Staley (4/30/26)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up everyone, and welcome to another episode of The
- 0:03Epstein Chronicles. One of the biggest concerns that we've heard
- 0:07lately from people who are against full transparency is that
- 0:10they don't want people to have their reputations ruined. And look,
- 0:13I get that just because you were in a picture
- 0:16with Jeffrey Epstein at one point or Glenn Maxwell, doesn't
- 0:20mean you were involved in their crimes, doesn't mean you knew.
- 0:23But if somebody names you as, you know, one of
- 0:26the executors of his estate, probably a good sign that
- 0:30you guys were pretty good friends. Right. So when I
- 0:33talk about people that are enablers, when I talk about
- 0:36people that need to be outed and need to deal
- 0:39with the ramifications, these are the kind of people that
- 0:41I'm talking about. People like Larry Summers and Jess Staley
- 0:46who are named as co executors in a draft will.
- 0:50And even if it wasn't the final will that came
- 0:52into being, why would Jeffrey Epstein have these two guys
- 0:56as his executors if they weren't super close? And as
- 0:59far as Jess Stay goes, he's already admitted to having
- 1:02sex with one of Jeffrey Epstein's quote unquote staffers, whatever
- 1:06the fuck that means, Or how about the Beauty and
- 1:08the Beast and the sleeping beauty fucking emails or all
- 1:13the emails that Jess Staley was sending to Jeffrey Epstein.
- 1:16The whole entire chain is disgusting. But sure, let's worry
- 1:20about Jess Staley. Let's worry about his reputation. I'm sorry,
- 1:25but I don't care. If your name's been mentioned in
- 1:28court documents, if you've been pointed to and credibly accused
- 1:31of taking part in the actual abuse, all of that
- 1:34should be put on blast. Why are we hiding it now?
- 1:39I can't talk for anybody else, but this is such
- 1:41a serious topic that there is no way that you
- 1:44should be messing around and alleging that people are involved
- 1:48in heinous crimes if they're not. That's why I'm very
- 1:52careful about what we talk about here on the podcast.
- 1:54I'm not here to ruin people's lives. The shit isn't
- 1:57fun for me. I don't like talking about people's personal lives.
- 2:02But unfortunately, the people that we're talking about here, they
- 2:05hold tremendous power, and they hold tremendous way over my
- 2:08everyday life. And that's not even hyperbole. How many of
- 2:12these people are in the financial world, literally, the people
- 2:15that are in control of what you can and can't
- 2:17do financially speaking, unless you have a few million laying
- 2:21around to go buy a house or whatever you're trying
- 2:22to do. Is there a single entity more powerful than
- 2:26the financial sector? There is not. And these are the
- 2:30people that are in control of what's going on with
- 2:34our finances. They're the ones making the decisions on who's
- 2:38going to get a loan or insert financial rulings here.
- 2:42These are the people that are making the rules that
- 2:44we all abide by. But it's okay that they were
- 2:47hanging out with Epstein, enabling them and in some cases
- 2:50being involved in the abuse themselves. And you, smarmy rats
- 2:54are gonna sit here and worry about their reputation, Well,
- 2:58enjoy yourselves not on this. Today's article is from the
- 3:02New York Post and the headline Jeffrey Epstein named Larry
- 3:05Summers Jess Staley as a state executors in draft wills.
- 3:09The DOJ record show this article was authored by Ariel Zilber.
- 3:16Jeffrey Epstein named Jess Staley and Lauren Summers as executors
- 3:19of his estate in draft Will's newly released Justice Department
- 3:23record show revelation that brings fresh scrutiny to the late
- 3:27pedophile and financiers ties to powerful men. You know, the
- 3:31stuff we've been telling you for years. All of a sudden,
- 3:34people are so shocked to hear about Jess Staley. Who's
- 3:36this jes stay guy. I heard somebody on MSNBC or
- 3:40MS NOW whatever it's called say that the other day, like,
- 3:43haven't you been paying attention? Oh? That's right, you haven't been,
- 3:46because if you were listening to the survivors, you know,
- 3:49the ones that you are trying to quash, the ones
- 3:51that you are trying to silence by not putting them
- 3:53on your network for all these years, if you just
- 3:55listen to them, you would have known. But instead, now
- 3:58you're playing ketchup and you're wondering who Jess Staley is.
- 4:01One of Jeffrey Epstein's number one enablers, one of Jeffrey
- 4:04Epstein's number one guys, as John McLain said in Diehard
- 4:08Welcome to the Party, Pal. The documents unsealed this week
- 4:13as part of the Justice Department release under the Epstein
- 4:16Files Transparency Act shoe. Epstein designated Staley, the former Barclays
- 4:21chief executive, and Summers, the former US Treasury secretary and
- 4:25ex Harvard president, for key roles in managing his estate
- 4:30because you know, they hardly knew him, no idea who
- 4:32Epstein is, and we have no idea certainly as to
- 4:35why he'd name us as executors of his estate. You
- 4:39guys believe that, right right. Staley was first named in
- 4:43January of twenty twelve as a successor executor, taskedwidth carrying
- 4:49out Epstein's will if the primary executors could not serve.
- 4:52According to records cited by The Financial Times, Staley also
- 4:57appeared as a full executor in two subsequent will's, dated
- 5:01September twenty thirteen and November twenty fourteen. Can anyone explain
- 5:06to me why Jess Staley hasn't been called by Congress yet? Oh?
- 5:09That's right. They're not really interested in getting to the
- 5:11bottom of it, are they. They don't want to shake
- 5:13the financial systems tree. How they going to pay their bills?
- 5:17How they going to continue ruining our lives via proxy?
- 5:21Because that's what happens. Do you really think that after
- 5:26two thousand and eight with the economic collapse, that none
- 5:29of these bankers should have went to prison. They all
- 5:31should have just skated home with their golden parachutes, as
- 5:35all of our parents and our friends and our relatives
- 5:38and coworkers had to pick up the pieces. But these people,
- 5:41forget it. Epstein walked away with a cool two hundred
- 5:45million or so in the wake of the financial disaster
- 5:48that that motherfucker helped create. But sure, tell me again
- 5:52about their reputations. I'm sure that's going to bring comfort
- 5:55to your aunt Joan, who lost her life savings in
- 5:58her home in two thousand and eight. Well, at least
- 6:01their reputations are defended, Like, do you people even hear
- 6:04yourselves willing to just debase yourself in the most disgusting
- 6:10kind of way to defend one man who doesn't give
- 6:13a goddamn about you. The second will also listed Summers
- 6:17as a success or executor. Neither man appeared in Epstein's
- 6:20final will from twenty nineteen, which also included in the
- 6:24DOJ release. Well, yeah, that was in Dike and Cohn,
- 6:28and obviously there was a reason for that. At that point,
- 6:31Epstein knew he was cooked, and he knew that eventually
- 6:34these documents and records were going to get in the
- 6:36hands of people, so he'd rather have his trusted advisors
- 6:40in Dike and Khn, his two inside men, be in
- 6:43charge of everything that came in the aftermath. He couldn't
- 6:46trust somebody like Jess Daily or somebody like Larry Summers
- 6:51to administer the estate correctly, to protect things that needed
- 6:54to be protected, and to pay people off who needed
- 6:57to be paid off. The only people that really knew
- 7:00what was going down as far as the ins and
- 7:03outs of what Epstein was up to all these years,
- 7:05in Dike and Calm Baby. They were the ones on
- 7:08the inside every year, year after year, decade after decade.
- 7:14Neither man appeared in Epstein's final will from twenty nineteen,
- 7:17which also included in the DJ release. Staley's lawyer and
- 7:22Summers were approached for a comment, According to The Financial Times,
- 7:25The disclosure lands as Staley continues to face fallout over
- 7:29his relationship with Epstein, which regulators and courts have concluded.
- 7:33He repeatedly downplayed I didn't need a trial for that.
- 7:37I told you all of that years ago, and not
- 7:40because I'm some kind of genius, but you just have
- 7:43to follow the evidence, right, you build a circumstantial evidence,
- 7:46and then from there, that's how you build the framing
- 7:49of the house. And when you start adding all the
- 7:52evidence up and you follow along the way we do,
- 7:55it's rather obvious who was doing what now. That is
- 7:58not a slammed We're gonna get a conviction type of deal.
- 8:03That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is if
- 8:05I can put those pieces together and put the case together,
- 8:08don't tell me there's not enough circumstantial evidence to investigate,
- 8:12and I mean really investigate everybody involved, a robust investigation.
- 8:17That's all I've ever asked for from the very beginning.
- 8:20I don't have any scores to settle here politically or otherwise.
- 8:25But I'll be damned if I sit here silent and
- 8:28just let this shit happen. There's no way, There is
- 8:31no way. So I'll continue to scream into the void
- 8:34like I've been doing for the last six years, even
- 8:36before this shit got popular, because there's something deeply, deeply
- 8:41and disturbingly wrong with the people who would rule over us.
- 8:46And I'm not talking about some fake cabal. I'm not
- 8:48talking about pizza shop fucking fantasies. I'm talking about these
- 8:52people right here, and I think one of the biggest
- 8:54takeaways is the window that has opened up for people
- 8:58to take a look at how these people move, how
- 9:00they act, how they behave. And of course, again that
- 9:04doesn't make them all guilty of being part of Jeffrey
- 9:07Epstein's Vieuman trafficking ring, but it does make them all
- 9:11morally culpable. And if it makes me the asshole because
- 9:15I want answers and I want accountability, fine, that's the
- 9:18title I'll wear proudly. I'm not here to make friends
- 9:20or industry connections or any of that bullshit. I don't
- 9:24care about any of it. So I'm gonna keep popping
- 9:26off until the popping off has to end. And when
- 9:28that day comes, believe me when I tell you there's
- 9:31a lot of other shit I'd like to talk to
- 9:33you about, whether it has to do with politics, day
- 9:37to day life, sports, whatever. There's other things in the world,
- 9:41But as of right now, this is the most pressing
- 9:43matter in my opinion, not only in the country but
- 9:46the world. Look at the people that are ruling over us, folks,
- 9:50And if that doesn't scare you, shitless. I have no
- 9:53idea what will because if you think people like this
- 9:56care about you or your children, you are sadly mistake.
- 10:00The band baris Staley from holding senior roles in the
- 10:03UK financial services industry. In court testimony, Staley saw to
- 10:07distance himself from Epstein by describing their connection as a
- 10:11close professional relationship. Absolute bullocks, as they'd say across the pond,
- 10:17as he's sitting in Jeffrey Epstein's fucking hot tub, have
- 10:20in relations with one of Epstein's quote unquote assistants. Again,
- 10:23I want to know what that means. Who's the assistant?
- 10:26Did she do it willingly? Was she course? Was she paid? Again?
- 10:30I don't know, but I have questions and I have
- 10:33to tell you. If you're somebody that has a fucking
- 10:35flatulence problem and the room's always smelling like farts, you're
- 10:39going to be the first person I look at, bro
- 10:41and I don't want to hear no shit. Why do
- 10:42you always blame me? Well, it might have something to
- 10:45do with the fact that you're farting all the time.
- 10:50In March, he told a court that he turned down
- 10:52a request from Epstein to serve as a trustee of
- 10:55his estate, arguing that the refusal showed the two men
- 10:58were not personally close, the fact that he would ask
- 11:01you in the first place, Bro, are you kidning me
- 11:03right now? They really think you're stupid? In fact, they
- 11:07depend on it. Please please don't prove them right. And
- 11:11by that I mean don't fall for their bullshit tactics
- 11:14of diversion and for chasing salacious side quests, because make
- 11:18no mistake, that's exactly what they want. They want you
- 11:21out here being confused and exhausted. Under the terms of
- 11:24Epstein's estate planning, executors of the will and trustees of
- 11:28the estate were separate roles. The twenty nineteen letter at
- 11:32the center of Staley's regulatory case stated that he did
- 11:36not have a close relationship with Epstein. In that document,
- 11:39the chair of Barclays told the FCA jess Is confirmed
- 11:43to us that he did not have a close relationship
- 11:46with mister Epstein. Regulators and judges later found that characterization misleading. Summers, meanwhile,
- 11:53has faced renewed criticism over his own dealings with Epstein,
- 11:56following a steady stream of disclosures detailing the extent of
- 11:59their relationship. Just another scumbag folks. Okay, another one of
- 12:04these guys that ran around like he had the moral
- 12:06high ground over all of us. Well at the same
- 12:09time enjoying Jeffrey Epstein's largesse, and again, god knows what else.
- 12:13At this point, I have no idea. I don't know
- 12:17what they were up to. I have no idea what
- 12:19they were doing. But here's what I do know. They
- 12:22were together, they were close, and mister Summers has never
- 12:26explained why. Emails released by a congressional committee last month
- 12:31showed Summers maintained a relationship with Epstein until twenty nineteen,
- 12:35the year Epstein died by suicide, allegedly in a New
- 12:39York jail. In response to those disclosures, Summers said he
- 12:43was deeply ashamed of the relationship. He stepped back from
- 12:47public commitments, including serving on the board of Open AI,
- 12:51his role at Think Tanks, and his teaching duties at
- 12:53Harvard University, where he's been tenured professor since nineteen eighty three.
- 12:58The new DOJ release included the executor designation largely consisted
- 13:03of material tied to the judicial proceedings surrounding Epstein and
- 13:06his longtime associate Glenn Maxwell. Maxwell was convicted in twenty
- 13:10twenty one on federal trafficking charges related to Ebstein's abuse
- 13:15of underage girls. The document dump also included unusual and
- 13:20previously disclosed items connected to Epstein's efforts to conceal his
- 13:24movements and identity. Among them was an Austrian passport issued
- 13:28in eighty two that bore Epstein's photograph but listed a
- 13:31different name. Something you all knew about as well because
- 13:35we talked about it. But now we have documentation backing
- 13:39it up. And this is what I've been talking about
- 13:41that we're going to get receipts, and we're getting them.
- 13:44The passport was found in a safe in Epstein's mansion
- 13:47along with forty eight diamonds, according to the records. In
- 13:50twenty nineteen, lawyers for the creep said he acquired the
- 13:53passport in the nineteen eighties, when hijackings were prevalent for
- 13:57travel connected to the Middle East. Yeah, okay, had nothing
- 14:01to do with his other life working as an asset right.
- 14:06A prosecutor investigating Epstein later identified an Austrian national with
- 14:10the same name as the one on the passport. The
- 14:13man was living in New York. No big deal there either. Right,
- 14:16Let's not have any investigation, no follow up. I wonder
- 14:20why investigators recommended contacting the individual to ask whether he
- 14:27had any reason to know why a passport from his
- 14:29native country bearing his name would feature Epstein and Epstein's
- 14:33photograph to be stored in Epstein's safe. The Financial Time
- 14:37said it approached the Austrian Man for a comment. The
- 14:41latest disclosures are part of a broader release of thousands
- 14:44of unclassified documents ordered under the Epstein Files Transparency Act,
- 14:49which was enacted last month and compelled the Justice Department
- 14:53to turn over a material related to the disgraced financier Pedophile.
- 14:57In July of twenty nineteen, Epstein arrested on federal sex
- 15:01trafficking charges and pleaded not guilty. He died by suicide
- 15:06allegedly weeks later at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan,
- 15:10according to the New York City Medical Examiner and subsequent
- 15:14DOJ Inspector General report that detailed extensive jailhouse failures. Jailhouse
- 15:19failures that still haven't been addressed. By the way, but
- 15:23go ahead bang on about the OIG report. Another reason
- 15:27why we talked about that ad nauseum. It was a
- 15:30bunch of bs. This whole entire thing has been a
- 15:33bunch of bs. The only difference now is that a
- 15:36lot of people know that the circus is in town
- 15:40and they have tickets. All of the information that goes
- 15:44with this episode can be found in the description box
