What Did Jeffrey Epstein's Calendar Reveal? (Part 4) (6/12/26) · The Vault: The Epstein Files

0:00
Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
0:05
In this episode, we're going to continue talking about the
0:08
schedule that Wall Street Journal has unearthed, and in today's
0:12
edition of Who's a Douchebag, we'll be talking about Leon Black,
0:16
Bill Gates, and Thomas Pritzker. So enough of my winging.
0:21
Let's just dive right into this article from the Wall
0:24
Street Journal and let's see what they cooked up. Headline
0:28
Bill Gates, Leon Black, Thomas Pritzker. One Day in the
0:32
Life of Jeffrey Epstein. This article was authored by Khadija Safdar,
0:38
David Benoit, and Kara Dappanah. On Monday, September eighth, twenty fourteen,
0:46
Jeffrey Epstein had a full calendar. He was scheduled to
0:50
meet that day with Bill Gates, Thomas Pritzker, Leon Black,
0:54
and Mortimer Zuckerman, four of the richest men in the country.
0:57
According to schedules and emails viewed by The Wall Street Journal,
1:02
it's like Dickhead of the Month club over here. A
1:05
bunch of krusty ass, old ass geezers over here living
1:08
out their perverted fantasies over at their buddy Epstein's house.
1:12
Let's just call them what they are. Epstein also planned
1:15
meetings that day with a former top White House lawyer,
1:18
a college president, and a philanthropic advisor, three of the
1:22
dozens of meetings the journal reported he had with each
1:26
of them, and then here in the article, it gives
1:29
you a graphic about his meetings and the schedule. So
1:34
Epstein's meeting scheduled for September eighth, twenty fourteen. Meeting start
1:39
ten am. Jeffrey Epstein, Thomas Pritzker, Bill Gates eleven thirty
1:44
am Leon Black, two pm Mortimer Zuckerman three pm, Katherine
1:50
Rumler four thirty Ramsey el Cohley five pm, Leon Botstein
1:56
six pm. Barnaby Marsh. Barnaby Marsh, tell me that you're
2:00
part of a country club without telling me you're part
2:03
of a country club. If your mom and dad name
2:06
you Barnaby, chances are you're wearing some deck shoes, rolling
2:09
around with a dude named Biff, and you're on the
2:11
golf team. And I think it's interesting when you look
2:14
at the meeting itself, or the meetings, I should say
2:17
that Leon Black had the most amount of time carved
2:20
out to sit down with Jeffrey Epstein, once again showing
2:24
you just how close Jeffrey Epstein and Leon Black were
2:29
six years earlier. In two thousand and eight, Epstein pleaded
2:32
guilty to soliciting and procuring a minor for prostitution, and
2:36
he subsequently registered as a sex offender. He was arrested
2:40
again in twenty nineteen on sex trafficking charges and died
2:44
that year in jail awaiting trial. Died that year in jail,
2:48
you mean either killed himself or was killed. Mister Gates,
2:51
the co founder of Microsoft, has said that they discussed
2:55
philanthropy and it was a mistake to meet with Epstein.
2:59
Mister Black, a co founder of Apollo Global Management, who
3:02
has said previously he met for tax and estate advice,
3:05
declined to comment. The other two men haven't previously discussed
3:09
their meetings with Epstein and didn't respond to requests for comment.
3:14
Mister Pritzker is chairman of the Hyatt Hotels and mister
3:17
Zuckerman is a real estate investor and media owner. And folks,
3:22
just take a look at where these people are throwing
3:24
their money. Look at how much money all of these
3:27
scumbags are throwing into political races. And again, do you
3:31
think they're just doing that out of the kindness of
3:33
their heart. These scumbags that we're talking about, they don't
3:36
even have hearts. That Monday featured appointments at two luxury
3:41
hotels in midtown Manhattan, the Park Kyatt and Four Seasons.
3:45
Epstein was also scheduled to host several visitors at his
3:49
sprawling townhouse near Central Park. What follows is a breakdown
3:53
of Epstein's agenda that day, offering a glimpse of the
3:57
many connections he made with wealthy and prominent people. The
4:02
Journal couldn't verify whether every schedule meeting took place. Ten
4:06
am Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Gates, and Thomas Pritzker. Epstein's driver
4:11
picked him up in the morning and brought him to
4:14
the Microsoft Mogul and Hyatt Hotel Air at the Park
4:17
Hyatt Hotel near Central Park. Epstein had met with each
4:21
of them before. In twenty eleven, Epstein was discussing multi
4:26
billion dollar charitable funds with JP Morgan Chase executives and
4:30
wrote in emails to them that he could involve mister
4:33
Gates and mister Pritzker on this day. Mister Gates was
4:37
scheduled to spend several hours with Epstein accompanying him to
4:42
various meetings. Mister Gates runs with his ex wife one
4:45
of the world's biggest philanthropies, and I always love that, right,
4:50
one of the biggest philanthropies in the world. As they're
4:53
doling out money to their buddies foundations. You want to
4:56
impress me, go down to some of the worst, hardest
5:00
hit neighborhoods as far as economics go, here in the
5:03
country and start piecing people off. Go knock on doors
5:06
and piece people off. Send money into people's bank accounts,
5:10
giving it to these charities. How much of that money
5:13
actually ever even gets to the people who really need it.
5:16
They're doing it because it's tax rite offs. Right, Oh well,
5:20
I don't have to pay taxes here. Fine, I'll throw
5:22
a few bucks towards this foundation. Meanwhile, the only people
5:26
that are benefiting from that are the executives that most
5:29
of these foundations. Just take a look at how that
5:32
money is utilized. As Bill has said many times before,
5:36
it was a mistake to have ever met with him,
5:38
and he deeply regrets it. Set a spokeswoman for mister Gates,
5:42
Mister Pritzker part of a wealthy and politically connected Chicago
5:46
family was a frequent guest at Epstein's townhouse. According to
5:49
the documents, mister Pritzker and Hyatt representatives didn't respond to
5:54
requests for comment about scheduled meetings. Well, isn't mister Pritzker's
5:58
brother some sort of big wig in politics? Is anybody
6:02
going to ask him about his brother's relationship with Jeffrey
6:05
Epstein or does it not fit a certain narrative? I'll
6:08
leave that up to you to decide. Eleven thirty Am.
6:12
Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Gates, Leon Black. The schedule called for
6:17
Epstein and mister Gates to head two blocks along fifty
6:20
seventh Street to the skyscraper that houses the offices of
6:24
Apollo Global Management. Epstein had been scheduled to meet with
6:28
its co founder mister Black the day before, and the
6:32
two men were slated to meet again three days later.
6:34
The document show mister Black had more than one hundred
6:38
meetings scheduled with Epstein from twenty thirteen to twenty seventeen.
6:43
They typically met at Epstein's townhouse, occasionally at mister Black's office.
6:47
The document show the billionaire stepped down as Apollo CEO
6:52
in March twenty twenty one. An Apollo review found he
6:56
paid Epstein one hundred and fifty eight million dollars for
6:59
state planning tax work. Mister Black declined to comment about
7:03
the scheduled meetings. Apollo has said Epstein was working for
7:07
mister Black, not Apollo. What they leave out here is
7:10
that Leon Black is also being sued by Guzel Ganieva,
7:14
who says that she was not only physically abused by
7:18
Leon Black, but she was physically abused at Jeffrey Epstein's behest.
7:23
So there's that as well. Two PM. Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Gates,
7:28
Mortimer Zuckerman. Epstein and mister Gates were next scheduled to
7:33
head to Epstein's townhouse to meet with mister Zuckerman, the
7:36
owner of US News and World Report. Boy, isn't that nice? Huh?
7:40
It's always nice when you have somebody like Epstein paling
7:43
around with Bill Gates all day, like two BFFs that
7:47
just got off of school, going to the arcade and
7:49
traveling all around the city to meet with other undesirable scumbags.
7:53
I'm sure nothing bad came of any of those meetings.
7:57
At the time of the meeting, mister Zuckerman also the
8:00
Daily News and was executive chairman of Boston Property, a
8:04
big owner of office buildings. Mister Zuckerman was scheduled to meet
8:08
Epstein more than a dozen times over the years. On
8:12
some occasions, the two men planned to meet at Zuckerman's
8:15
office or home, which was near Epstein's townhouse. The document
8:19
show one night in January twenty fourteen, Epstein waited past
8:23
eleven pm to meet with mister Zuckerman, who was scheduled
8:27
to visit his townhouse at ten thirty pm. The document show,
8:31
what are you doing going over to Epstein's pad at
8:34
ten thirty at night? I'm sure you guys are going
8:38
to watch infommercials and to eat some Jack in the box.
8:42
A spokeswoman for mister Zuckerman had no comment on the
8:45
scheduled meetings. Oh, of course he didn't. Three pm. Jeffrey Epstein,
8:50
Bill Gates, Catherine Rumler The Four Seasons, a luxury hotel
8:55
chain in which mister Gates investment firm holds a stake,
8:58
was the next schedule's There, Epstein introduced mister Gates to
9:03
Catherine Rumler, who was until earlier that year, served as
9:07
president of Obama's top White House lawyer. Boy, isn't that nice?
9:12
Imagine what they did over alex Acosta. Now we're hearing
9:15
about top lawyers for Obama, Joe Biden's CIA director, and
9:21
pretty much silence, And it tells you everything you need
9:24
to know about the legacy media and this story. They
9:27
don't want to go near it. You know why, because,
9:29
like Nancy Pelosi's daughter said in the very beginning, some
9:33
of our fives are gonna get caught up in this. Well,
9:36
a lot of the faves have been caught up in this.
9:38
The problem is the wider public isn't aware of that
9:42
because the faves have been protected by their pals inside
9:45
of these media outlets. Over the next few years, Epstein
9:49
often had appointments with Ms. Rumler, who was a partner
9:52
at Latham and Watkins at the time and is now
9:56
general counsel at Goldman Sachs. Ms Rumler had a professional
10:00
relationship with Epstein. Many of their meetings were about a
10:03
mutual client. A Goldman Sachs spokesman said, I regret ever
10:07
knowing Jeffrey Epstein, Miss Rumler said. The spokeswoman for mister
10:11
Gates said Epstein never worked for mister Gates. A spokeswoman
10:16
for Latham and Watkins said Epstein wasn't a client of theirs.
10:20
Four thirty pm. Jeffrey Epstein, Ramsey el Coley. Epstein returned
10:26
to the Upper east Side Townhouse in the afternoon. The
10:29
schedule shows one of the largest private homes in Manhattan.
10:33
The townhouse was originally built for a Macy's air. At
10:36
four thirty PM, Epstein was scheduled to meet with Ramsey
10:40
el Coley, a musician and anthropologist. Mister el Cooley had
10:45
several other meetings with Epstein over the years. Mister el
10:48
Coley said one of Epstein's girlfriends had introduced them, and
10:52
that he occasionally went to Epstein for financial and book
10:56
publishing advice. When I heard about everything that happened, I
11:00
was sick to my stomach. He said, you went to
11:02
Epstein about book publishing advice? What is this guy? Random house?
11:06
What is he the penguin from Penguin Books. In hindsight,
11:10
I realized that Jeffrey was a very good con man.
11:13
Mister Elkley said, he could give the impression that he
11:16
was helping you, when in fact he was mostly bsing.
11:20
Five PM Jeffrey Epstein and Leon Botstein the next person
11:25
on Epstein's calendar, Leon Botstein, was running late that day,
11:28
The longtime president of Bard College was arriving at LaGuardia
11:32
Airport and planned to head straight to the townhouse. The
11:35
document show. Mister Botstein said the first visit Epstein's townhouse
11:40
in twenty twelve to thank him for the seventy five
11:43
grand in unsolicited donations for Bard's high schools, then visited
11:48
again over several years in an attempt to get more.
11:52
He also invited Epstein to events at the college. Mister
11:56
Botstein said fundraising for the school was his responsibility and
12:00
that he met just as frequently with other potential donors.
12:04
It was a humiliating experience to deal with them, but
12:07
I cannot afford to put my pride before the obligation
12:10
to raise money for the causes I'm responsible for. Mister
12:13
Botstein said, Yeah, I know, right, profits over people. It
12:17
looked like he was someone who was convicted and served
12:20
his time. Mister Botstein said, that turned out to be corrupt,
12:24
But we didn't know that. Oh, you should have known it.
12:26
All you have to do is take a look at
12:28
the crime that he ended up getting slapped with. Give
12:30
me a break already six pm. Jeffrey Epstein, Barnaby Marsh.
12:36
The last meeting scheduled for the day was with Barnaby Marsh,
12:39
a philanthropic advisor to a wealthy families. At the time,
12:43
mister Marsh was an executive at the John Templeton Foundation,
12:47
which donates to various science and research groups. He had
12:51
roughly two dozen meetings with Epstein. Mister Marsh said he
12:55
often went to Epstein's townhouse for gatherings because it was
12:58
full of academics and wealthy people who discussed philanthropy ideas.
13:03
So many of these billionaires knew him, mister Marsh said,
13:06
and he would sit in the corner just kind of watching.
13:10
Mister Marsh said Epstein openly discussed as jail time. Mister
13:13
Marsh said, however, that he never saw evidence Epstein made
13:17
significant donations. He was a lot of talk, but he
13:20
never did anything. And I think a lot of people
13:23
missed the point when it comes to the scientists and
13:26
the academics that Epstein was around. It wasn't because he
13:30
wanted to feel like he was smart. I've always had
13:33
the opinion that he was interested in the work that
13:35
they were doing. Just look at some of these scientists
13:38
and look at the work that we're doing, and then
13:40
tell me that intelligence agencies wouldn't want access to that
13:44
or that Epstein, being the man that he is, wouldn't
13:47
want to get that information to try and parlay it
13:50
for more money or more power or whatever. Because that's
13:54
exactly what Epstein did. He collected people, he collected information,
13:58
and then he used those people and information to keep
14:01
the criminal enterprise afloat for all of these decades. That
14:05
is just one day in Epstein's calendar. He was scheduled
14:08
to meet regularly with some of those same people and
14:11
infrequently with others. Here's a look at how often they
14:14
appeared on Epstein's schedule in the year before and the
14:18
year after that. So the first person is Leon Black
14:22
sixty six days. The next person is Catherine Rumler nineteen days.
14:27
Next person up, Mortimer Zuckerman fifteen, Leon Botstein twelve, Barnaby
14:33
Marsh ten, Thomas Pritzker six, Ramsey L. Coley five, Bill
14:38
Gates five. So again, folks, another look behind the curtain.
14:42
Now what Jeffrey Epstein was up to, who was on
14:44
his schedule, and who was covorting with? This dude behind
14:47
the scenes. Now, all of these people will tell you
14:50
they had no idea who Jeffrey Epstein was. The question
14:54
is do any of you believe them? All? Right, folks,
14:57
that's gonna do it for this one. All of the
14:59
information that goes with the episode can be found in
15:02
the description box.
