Latest / The Vault: The Epstein Files / Mega Edition: Jes Staley And His Epstein Related Legal War With JP Morgan (5/16/26)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
- 0:05Jess Day is now being sued by JP Morgan for
- 0:10allegedly hiding his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And while I
- 0:14love to see jess Staley get sued here, I find
- 0:18it a bit laughable that JP Morgan is going to
- 0:21try and act like they had no idea what was
- 0:24going on and it was all jess Day's fault. The institutions,
- 0:29the financial institutions, never take responsibility for anything. There's always
- 0:34a fall guy, there's always a reason why, and there's
- 0:36always an excuse. You know what, There never is jail
- 0:40sentences for these scumbags, the modern day robber barons. You know,
- 0:45the same people who are responsible for the housing crash
- 0:48in two thousand and eight, two thousand and nine, the
- 0:50same people who never went to prison or jail. Yeah,
- 0:53those same people are now telling you that they weren't
- 0:55responsible for their relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and it's all
- 0:58on Jess Daily. Well, those of us who have been
- 1:01paying attention, we know that that's bs. While jeff Staley
- 1:05was a huge part of it, a key cog in
- 1:08the machine, he wasn't the only one involved. There were
- 1:11plenty of people at JP Morgan who could have stopped
- 1:14Jeffrey Epstein, and none of them did it. Not one
- 1:17of them stepped up and said, look, we can't do
- 1:20business with this combag, look what he's up to. Instead,
- 1:23they just kept counting their dollars and securing that bag.
- 1:28And it's not just Jeffrey Epstein. Remember Epstein's the tip
- 1:31of the iceberg, folks. He's who we focus on mainly here,
- 1:35but he's just a symptom of the problem. There are
- 1:38groups like this all over the world, and there are
- 1:42more people in slavery right now, modern day slavery, than
- 1:45there has ever been enslaved ever in history. And if
- 1:49you think it was only Jeffrey Epstein and Glen Maxwell
- 1:52doing this shit, I got news for you. It wasn't.
- 1:56And whether it's human trafficking or narco trafficking or insert
- 2:00criminal behavior here, none of it would be possible without
- 2:04the complicity of the financial sector. So it's always laughable
- 2:08when these institutions try to escapegoat somebody. Today we have
- 2:12an article from the Daily Mail and the headline JP
- 2:16Morgan Sue's former executive for hiding Jeffrey Epstein's sex abuse
- 2:20to help retain pervert financier pedophile as Bank's client. Lawsuit
- 2:25says he should be liable for any fines levied against
- 2:29the firm and demands he repay his wages. Well, you know,
- 2:33Jeff Staley's going to say, right, well, everybody else knew
- 2:36as well, and I hope that the fingers start pointing,
- 2:39and I hope everybody gets thrown under the bus here,
- 2:41and then I hope everybody is subpoenaed. You know how
- 2:45that would have happened, and how we could have avoided
- 2:47all of this. That's right, you know what I'm gonna say.
- 2:50They should have been hit with RICO right away, because
- 2:53all of these people that were doing business with Jeffrey Epstein,
- 2:56sending money to his bank, receiving money from him, all
- 2:59of those people would get caught up in that drag
- 3:01net and all of them would be charged with RICO. Now,
- 3:04would all of those predicates stick, Of course they wouldn't,
- 3:07but it would be a glimpse into the books of
- 3:09a lot of these people. The government refuses to do it,
- 3:13just like the government refuses to let you know who
- 3:16the Johns were who were using Jeffrey Epstein, or how
- 3:19they refuse to provide any clarity about Jeffrey Epstein's death.
- 3:25Today's article is authored by Alex Oliviera. JP Morgan has
- 3:31sued a former executive who was allegedly responsible for keeping
- 3:35pedophile sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein's business at the bank for
- 3:39fifteen years. So you mean to tell me, at this
- 3:42bank there's no checks and balances, JP Morgan, Jeff Staley
- 3:46could just do whatever he wants. He was God there
- 3:48there is nobody above him. Why didn't auditing step in?
- 3:52Where was accounting? Where was accountability? See all of these
- 3:57different levels that are there as redundancies to make sure
- 4:00this doesn't happen. They were either all bunny hopped or
- 4:04they all just kept silent. It can't be anything else,
- 4:06because they certainly knew you need to tell me. Auditing
- 4:09didn't take a look at what was going on or
- 4:11accounting and didn't say to themselves, holy shit, man, we
- 4:14got ourselves a pedal file. Of course they did. They
- 4:17have a whole division of people who do just that.
- 4:21But somehow it's just Jess Staley's fault right now. Don't
- 4:24misunderstand me. Jess Staley owns the lion's share here, but
- 4:28for JP Morgan to act like they had no idea,
- 4:31I'm not buying that. James Edward Jess Staley was sued
- 4:35by JP Morgan after US Virgin Islands file the lawsuit
- 4:39against the bank, claiming it knew about Epstein's the farious
- 4:42behavior for years but turned a blind eye to it.
- 4:46The suing of Staley draws him into JP Morgan's case
- 4:49with the government of the US Virgin Islands and positions
- 4:53him as a defendant. The move could make Staley responsible
- 4:57for JP Morgan's financial damages if the bank loses its case.
- 5:02He's in severe jeopardy here, folks. Not only does he
- 5:05have the government going after him, all of his buddies
- 5:07at JP Morgan or former buddies, they've all turned on
- 5:11him now and he's enemy number one right now that
- 5:14the spotlight is on them as a whole, as an entity, well,
- 5:18they have to find that scapegoat. We can't look at
- 5:20Jamie Diamond and JP Morgan and say why didn't you
- 5:23stop this guy? Oh no, no, no. They have to
- 5:26tell you that it's just Jes Daly and that's it.
- 5:29The buck stops there. When the reality is we know,
- 5:32it goes all the way to the top. The US
- 5:36Virgin Islands alleged in its lawsuit that Staley exchanged a
- 5:39number of explicit emails with Epstein, which included pictures of
- 5:43underage women. Those emails allegedly continued after Epstein was convicted
- 5:48of soliciting prostitution from an underage girl in two thousand
- 5:52and eight. So he knew that Jeffrey Epstein was trying
- 5:56to diddle little girls and still was trading emails with them,
- 5:59looking at pictures of underage girls, talking about snow white
- 6:03Disney characters, because you know, that's just normal behavior for
- 6:07grown ass men. Is anybody buying this? Like, honestly, who
- 6:11buys this bullshit? Staley was known to have shared a
- 6:14close relationship with Epstein over the years, with the pair
- 6:18sometimes taking trips together. Staley has not been convicted of
- 6:22any crimes in relation to Epstein. Well, he's never been
- 6:25tried for any crimes in relation to Ebstein, never been
- 6:28called on the carpet in relation to Epstein, and has
- 6:31never had to answer any real questions related to Epstein.
- 6:35And you know that's how the process usually works, right,
- 6:38You have to actually be accused of something first, And
- 6:41for all of these years, nobody wanted to accuse jeff
- 6:43Staley of anything, when in reality he should have been
- 6:47at the top of the list of people being looked
- 6:49at as far as being complicit financially with Jeffrey Epstein.
- 6:54In its lawsuit against JP Morgan filed in December, the
- 6:57US Virgin Islands alleged the bank had more than close
- 7:00up view of Epstein's sex trafficking. It also said the
- 7:04bank ignored obvious red flags relating to Epstein's accounts. There
- 7:09is no doubt that there were red flags in abundance
- 7:12surrounding Jeffrey Epstein. But guess what it was all about.
- 7:16Secure in a bag. All people cared about was making
- 7:19money and if they could make money on the back
- 7:21of Jeffrey Epstein, who cares how scummy he is? And
- 7:24that was their whole motto, And that's the motto. Unfortunately
- 7:28that still permeates on Wall Street. Epstein ran much of
- 7:32his criminal activities out of Little Saint James Island, a
- 7:36private island he owned off the coast of the Saint
- 7:38James Islands. The government alleged that JP Morgan had more
- 7:42than enough exposure to Epstein's accounts to determine he was
- 7:46conducting criminal behavior in their territory. Staley was not named
- 7:50in the lawsuit from the US Virgin Islands. What I
- 7:54will say about this, though, is the US Virgin Islands
- 7:56has some nerve this was happening in their territory right
- 8:00under their noses, and their officials were getting their palms greased,
- 8:04and they have the audacity to sue somebody else. Have
- 8:07they arrested anybody in the US Virgin Islands for corruption
- 8:11or for being involved with Jeffrey Epstein. The answer obviously
- 8:14is no. So they have a lot of audacity here
- 8:17to try and pitch this like it was happening under
- 8:20JP Morgan's nose, but they had no idea what was
- 8:23going on in the government in the Virgin Islands. Seems
- 8:27a bit laughable, right, And I don't know how a
- 8:29jury is going to look at that if it gets
- 8:31to that point. But I'll tell you this much, watching
- 8:34Jeff Staley get aired out is worth it to me.
- 8:38Staley was not named in the lawsuit from the US
- 8:40Virgin Islands. JP Morgan denied the allegations and move for
- 8:44a criminal dismissal of the case. In its lawsuit, the
- 8:48bank said Staley should cover all of their damages if
- 8:51they lose their case against the US Virgin Islands, accusing
- 8:55him of intentional and outrageous conduct and hiding information about Epstein.
- 9:00Oh crimeer river. JP Morgan the biggest bank in the world,
- 9:04and you don't have the proper means to do your
- 9:06due diligence on what Jeff Staley was up to while
- 9:09he was an employee at your company. You really think
- 9:12we're gonna buy that now? If this was some po
- 9:14dunk little company, all right, fine, I get it. You
- 9:17don't have the resources. This is JP Morgan. We're talking
- 9:20about the biggest bank in the world. The bank also
- 9:24said Staley put his and Epstein's interests before the banks.
- 9:29The lawsuit also demands Staley pay back the wages he
- 9:32was paid from two thousand and six to twenty twelve,
- 9:36which could amount to tens of millions of dollars. According
- 9:39to Reuter's good luck with that. They're not gonna get
- 9:41that money back, zero chance. While a high ranking JP
- 9:45Morgan executive, Staley famously visited Epstein in prison after his
- 9:49conviction for prostitution in two thousand and eight. Just to
- 9:52be clear, little girls can't be prostitutes, and that's what
- 9:56Jeffrey Epstein solicited a little girl. The bank has denied
- 10:00daily actually went to the prison, saying instead Epstein visited
- 10:03Staley at his office during a work release for his
- 10:06eighteen month prison sentence. Oh that's so much better. Let's
- 10:09have a convicted sex offender come to the offices of
- 10:12JP Morgan. After the full extent of Epstein's crimes became
- 10:16known in twenty nineteen, Staley initially claimed he and Epstein
- 10:21were little more than acquaintances tied by business. Later, he
- 10:25admitted to having a close professional relationship that he established
- 10:29while running JP Morgan Private Bank and Asset Management Division
- 10:33from two thousand to two thousand and nine. Staley became
- 10:37the CEO of Barclays in twenty fifteen, but in twenty
- 10:41twenty one stepped down amidst a probe into whether he
- 10:45had concealed the extent of his relationship with Epstein. And
- 10:48he most certainly did. Is there any doubt about that?
- 10:52I mean, I feel like I've been talking about Jeff
- 10:53Staley for years now, so I'm glad that people are
- 10:57finally catching on and realizing that the financial sector played
- 11:01a gigantic role. Here in its suit against Staley, JP
- 11:06Morgan accused him of being the unnamed man implicated in
- 11:10an assault case from a Jane Doe against Epstein, which
- 11:13said one of Epstein's friends used aggressive force in his
- 11:16sexual assault of her and informed Jane Doe one that
- 11:20he had Epstein's permission to do what he wanted to her.
- 11:23JP Morgan alleged that friend with Staley. According to Reuters,
- 11:27so imagine that he's getting thrown under the bus by
- 11:30JP Morgan here in an epic fashion. We have never
- 11:34heard that Jess Staley was an abuser before. We had
- 11:38only heard that he was an enabler. Well, now that
- 11:41conversation has to change, right and Jess Staley, it's looking
- 11:44like anyway is going to have to be moved from
- 11:47the wrong of just an enabler to somebody that was
- 11:50actually involved in abusing girls. Upon information and belief, Staley
- 11:55is this person who she described as a powerful financial executive.
- 12:00She had historically been afraid to identify. JP Morgan's complaint
- 12:04red There's no doubt that the walls are closing in
- 12:08on Jess Daly. The question is just how far those
- 12:12walls are going to compress? All right, folks, that's gonna
- 12:16do it for this one. All of the information that
- 12:19goes with the episode can be found in the description box.
- 12:23What's up everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
- 12:29Jess Stay is going to have to face the music
- 12:32when it comes to the JP Morgan lawsuit. And as
- 12:36we've discussed before, he was trying to get that lawsuit
- 12:40thrown out. Now he's facing liability not only from the
- 12:45lawsuit from the US Virgin Islands and the accuser, but
- 12:49also liability perhaps when it comes to JP Morgan. Now,
- 12:53I wouldn't be shocked for one minute to see JP
- 12:56Morgan wiggle their ass completely out of all of this
- 13:00and put all the blame on Jess Day. And you
- 13:03see they're doing the same thing when it comes to
- 13:05the Virgin Islands. They're saying that the US Virgin Islands
- 13:10was complicitit with Epstein as well, and they are not
- 13:13wrong about that. We talked about that at length in
- 13:16an episode yesterday. And it's almost like that Spider Man
- 13:20meme right where Spider Man's pointing at spider Man and
- 13:23then Spider Man's pointing back at another Spider Man, And
- 13:27that's basically what you see here. Every single time somebody
- 13:30gets called onto the carpet for their relationship with Epstein,
- 13:34there's always some kind of half baked ass excuse about
- 13:37why they were paling around with Jeffrey Epstein. And the
- 13:41strategy here, obviously is we'll blame everybody else and take
- 13:45no responsibility ourselves. Hopefully Judge Raykoff sees through that nonsense
- 13:50and holds all of them liable. Here, I'm talking about
- 13:53the US Virgin Islands as well. How long is it
- 13:56gonna be until some of these survivors decide their gonna
- 14:00get together and sue the US Virgin Islands. How is
- 14:03it that the US Virgin Islands is entitled two one
- 14:06hundred and five million dollars. There's no explanation for that,
- 14:10especially considering what some of these women and these girls
- 14:14went through. So you mean to tell me that the
- 14:17US Virgin Islands, who facilitated Jeffrey Epstein's BS at the
- 14:22very least enabled it, they deserve to take money out
- 14:25of the fund that was supposed to go to the survivors.
- 14:29How was that even acceptable? On any level. And why
- 14:33would the survivors lawyers at any point be okay with that?
- 14:37That seems like something that you'd want to push back against. Right,
- 14:41It's kind of like a lawyer who takes more money
- 14:44than you after a lawsuit. Oh you got your neck
- 14:47busted up in this car accident, got your back all
- 14:49screwed up, but you're gonna get thirty grand and I'm
- 14:53gonna get sixty five. Kind of the same deal here.
- 14:56You have girls that were getting, you know, basically peanuts
- 15:00comparatively speaking, and then the US Virgin Islands has the
- 15:04audacity to turn right back around and try and get
- 15:07more money. That doesn't sit well with me, not at all.
- 15:11And that's why I've called the Virgin Islands out for
- 15:14basically two years now over this nonsense, because that's what
- 15:19it's always been for them. It's always been a cash grab,
- 15:22all right. So onto the meat and potatoes of the episode.
- 15:26Today's article is from Fox News and the headline Jess
- 15:30Staley must face JP Morgan's lawsuit tied to Jeffrey Epstein.
- 15:34A judge rules Staley's over thirty year tenure at JP
- 15:39Morgan ended in twenty thirteen. This article was authored by
- 15:44Aslin Murphy. And imagine working at some joint for thirty years,
- 15:50and I'm sure Jess Staley brought a ton of money
- 15:53into JP Morgan, But imagine getting tossed under the bus
- 15:56like this, especially considering you know, as Jess Staley does
- 16:01that all of the other executives that were working at
- 16:04JP Morgan, all the other executives that were on those
- 16:07email chains, they all knew who Epstein was as well.
- 16:11So if I was Jess Stay, I'd be doing the
- 16:13same thing saying, why am I the one that's getting
- 16:15pointed out? Why am I the one who's being blamed
- 16:18for the whole thing? Well the answer to that, however,
- 16:21is because you are to blame for the whole thing,
- 16:24at least a very large part of it, Jess Daily,
- 16:27And that's why the judge is making you liable here.
- 16:31You could have, at any time walked into one of
- 16:34those offices of Jamie Diamond or any of those other
- 16:37hotshots and said, you know what, Epstein's a piece of shit.
- 16:41We can't work with this guy. You see what he's doing.
- 16:44But instead, what were you doing? You were going down
- 16:46to the island and dunking your nuts. In his jacuzzie
- 16:50at the same time talking about snow white and a
- 16:53bunch of other bullshit that no other adults are talking about.
- 16:57No dudes are sitting around shooting emails to their boys
- 17:00code word unless there's a reason for it, and usually
- 17:03if there's a reason for it, it's because the dude's
- 17:05trying to score some drugs. Nobody's sitting around talking about, oh,
- 17:10snow white, unless you're talking about drugs for normal people.
- 17:14But you, Jess day, as you're sitting around sipping on
- 17:17some wine which are nuts dunked in Jeffrey Epstein's hot tub,
- 17:22you got some nerve, buddy, to act like you're not
- 17:24responsible here, to act like you're not the man that's
- 17:28holding the bag when all is said and done, because
- 17:31you are. And here's some unsolicited advice for mister Barclay's
- 17:36Jess Staley, do yourself a favor and snitch on everybody
- 17:39else and get ahead of it. A judge issued a
- 17:43decision Wednesday about whether the Jeffrey Epstein related lawsuit filed
- 17:47by JP Morgan Chase against Jess Staley can proceed. US
- 17:52District Judge Jed Raykoff ruled against the former Bank executive,
- 17:57saying that the case that dates back to early mark
- 18:00will not be tossed out and can move forward. The
- 18:04reasoning used in his decision on the matter will come
- 18:07in due course, he said. So he didn't give an
- 18:10opinion on why he made the ruling that he did yet,
- 18:13but he's going to pen one of those up and
- 18:16break it down to why he decided to go ahead
- 18:19and let the lawsuit move forward. And I think the
- 18:23reason is one we all know because Jess Staley at
- 18:26the very least, look at the very least, is culpable
- 18:30for helping Jeffrey Epstein structure, for helping Jeffrey Epstein avoid
- 18:35Title thirty one, and for a whole host of other
- 18:39financial crimes. And that doesn't even delve into these new
- 18:42allegations against them, well new public allegations anyway, that Jess
- 18:47Staley was taking part in the abuse as well as
- 18:51being an enabler. So yeah, I would say that Judge
- 18:55Rakoff made the right decision to let this move forward. Stay,
- 19:00who worked at JP Morgan from nineteen seventy nine to
- 19:03twenty thirteen, had submitted his motion to dismiss in April.
- 19:08The JP Morgan chase lawsuit made allegations that during his
- 19:12employment at the bank, Staley protected Epstein. Epstein's fifteen years
- 19:18as a JP Morgan client ran from nineteen ninety eight
- 19:21to twenty thirteen. In twenty twenty, Staley said he deeply
- 19:26regrets having any relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, adding obviously I
- 19:31thought I knew him well, and I didn't according to
- 19:34the Associated Press, Nope, you're not getting off with that bullshit.
- 19:37You knew who he was, you knew what he was,
- 19:40and you knew what he was up to, and in fact,
- 19:43according to these allegations, you were involved. So don't give
- 19:46us that bs you have no idea or that you
- 19:49couldn't fully grasp what he was up to because you
- 19:52knew what he was up to. And with those allegations
- 19:55of the abuse, here's a real simple course, a real
- 19:59simple remedy for you, Jess Staley. If you didn't abuse
- 20:02that accuser, why don't you sewer. Go ahead and sewer
- 20:05for defamation. Let's get the discovery and let's get the
- 20:08ball rolling. But you won't do that, will you, Because
- 20:12all of these people are the same. They'll all talk
- 20:15about how they regretted their relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. But
- 20:18they'll never show any sort of remorse. They'll never show
- 20:23any sort of behavior that would signal to anybody that
- 20:26they're sorry. Instead, what they do is lie and lie
- 20:30and lie some more. In addition to saying he regretted
- 20:34the relationship, Staley has denied knowing about Epstein's crimes and
- 20:39accuse JP Morgan of making him a fall guy for
- 20:42its supervisory failures. All of you should go down. I'd
- 20:46like to see JP Morgan and Jess Staley get equally
- 20:50slapped with liability. Here. The bank is seeking for Staley
- 20:54to cover losses that it could potentially rack up in
- 20:58two other lawsuits, and to get back the compensation it
- 21:01paid him from two thousand and six to twenty thirteen.
- 21:05I highly doubt they'll get that compensation back. He has
- 21:08a good argument as far as them knowing about Epstein,
- 21:12knowing that Epstein was a scumbag, and they didn't act either.
- 21:16So it's kind of like the Acosta situation. Everybody wants
- 21:20to blame Acosta, and I get it. Easy fall guy,
- 21:23easy guy to point to and say, what a dumbass,
- 21:26what a coward, what a straight up pussy. But at
- 21:30the end of the day, he was just the trigger man.
- 21:33He didn't make the call, He wasn't sitting down in
- 21:36the dark back room with the decision makers. He just
- 21:40pulled the trigger. And you can make the same argument here,
- 21:42right that Jess Staley wasn't the man that ultimately was
- 21:47behind the lever of power, but he was in a
- 21:50position where he could have stopped this, and where he
- 21:53not only stood by but profited and also, according to
- 21:58these reports, abused girl with Jeffrey Epstein. So that's a
- 22:03big problem for Jess Daily obviously, But for JP Morgan
- 22:07to try and flip the whole last script and put
- 22:09it all on him, I don't think that's gonna work
- 22:11out well for them. Late last year, the US Virgin
- 22:16Islands sued JP Morgan Chase on claims the bank knowingly facilitated, sustained,
- 22:22and concealed the human traffic network operated by Jeffrey Epstein
- 22:27from his home and base in the Virgin Islands, and
- 22:30financially benefited from this participation directly or indirectly by failing
- 22:36to comply with federal banking regulations, as previously reported by
- 22:41Fox Business. Now that all sounds real serious, right, So
- 22:45why did they just go with a Sicco case and
- 22:48not a Rico case. Oh that's right. They didn't really
- 22:51want to bring anybody in. They didn't want to bring
- 22:53nobody to justice for real. They're just trying to throw
- 22:57you a little bit of red meat. Hey, if we
- 22:59throw a little red meat this way, maybe they'll shut up.
- 23:02And the Virgin Islands, well, we know what they're on.
- 23:04They're out here trying to collect that bag like Barksdale
- 23:08down in Baltimore during the show The Wire. JP Morgan
- 23:12has also made allegations against the US Virgin Islands, claiming
- 23:16Tuesday in a filing that the territory was complicit in
- 23:20the crimes of Epstein. Yes, they were, And I think
- 23:23they're just proving people's point here with these sorts of claims. Yeah,
- 23:27you dumb jackasses. This is what I've been telling you.
- 23:30Everybody's involved, all of them. Every last person that Epstein
- 23:35was doing business with, every person that was at his house,
- 23:38every person that he was writing a check to or
- 23:41vice versa. They're all involved in some way. Now, does
- 23:45that mean everybody was engaging and abusing the girls. Of
- 23:49course not. There's different layers to this. There's people that
- 23:52are moneymen, there's people that are there for influence, and
- 23:56then of course there's the sick bastards that have all
- 23:59been public named, or at least a big group of them.
- 24:02And those people are the ones that should really rotten
- 24:05fucking hell. Those are the people that still haven't been
- 24:09called out. Everybody talks about list this list that I'm
- 24:13gonna leak information. Why don't you start, like I said
- 24:16the other day with George Mitchell, why don't you start
- 24:19with Bill Richardson, Why don't you start with Stacy Plaskett?
- 24:23And then once you finish that homework assignment, come back
- 24:27and I'll have more for you. But until then, enough
- 24:30with the Twitter nonsense about how you're going to expose
- 24:33this one or that one. You're not exposing anybody except
- 24:37yourself as an absolute fool and a grifter. I mean,
- 24:41do we really need to hear about Tom Hanks another
- 24:44five hundred times a bunch of nonsense about Tom Hanks?
- 24:47How is that pushing anything forward? Especially considering when you
- 24:52have those three names I just gave you Stacy Plasket,
- 24:56George Mitchell, and Bill Richardson. Why would you be worried
- 24:59about Tom Hanks sounds like misdirection to me, and it
- 25:03sounds like somebody is trying to change the narrative. The
- 25:08question is why do people keep falling for it? For
- 25:11the second one, the bank faces accusations from epstein accusers
- 25:15in the form of a class action lawsuit. The same
- 25:18thing should happen to the US Virgin Islands. Epstein's behavior
- 25:23was monstrous and his victims deserve justice. A JP Morgan
- 25:27Chase spokesperson told Fox Business on Wednesday. In hindsight, any
- 25:32association with him was a mistake and we regret it,
- 25:35but we did not help him commit his hay and
- 25:38his crimes. Now you just facilitated his money. You helped
- 25:41him with his financial malfeasance. I guess money laundering is
- 25:44no big deal. When you're hanging out with Jamie Diamond
- 25:47and you're a bundler for insert president here, you can
- 25:51get away with that bullshit, I guess. But if you
- 25:54got an Etsy store, you better believe one of those
- 25:57eighty seven thousand New Irs agents is gonna want to
- 26:00have a conversation. Prior to Epstein's death in twenty nineteen,
- 26:05he was facing one charge of sex trafficking miners and
- 26:08one of conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking miners that
- 26:12he was supposed to go to trial for his death
- 26:15ruled the suicide took place August tenth, twenty nineteen, in jail.
- 26:20And we all know that's allegedly. We don't know about suicide.
- 26:24Prove it at this point, prove it. I don't believe anything.
- 26:27That's someone like Bill Barr is telling me, So let
- 26:30me see some proof, some tangible proof. Ghlaine Maxwell, a
- 26:35longtime associate of Epstein's, you mean, co conspirator, fellow child abuser, general,
- 26:40all around scusbag and bipudle serpent, Is that what you mean?
- 26:44Received twenty years of imprisonment last year for charges in
- 26:48connection to the crimes the deceased financier Pedophile was accused of.
- 26:53She has launched efforts to appeal her conviction. Good luck,
- 26:57good luck with that appeal. Imagine there on a jury
- 27:01and this lady comes strolling in talking about I want
- 27:04to get out of jail. Talk about a comedian. Huh so,
- 27:07Glenn Maxwell, I highly doubt she's getting out of jail.
- 27:10As far as JP Morgan and Jess Daley go, like
- 27:14I've said, I think they're both culpable, and I think
- 27:17that the US Virgin Islands is culpable here as well.
- 27:20It's almost like we have a battle royale going on.
- 27:23Al Qaeda versus the Taliban versus isis like, who do
- 27:27you root for? There's no good guy here. All of
- 27:29the people involved in this lawsuit are all scum, so
- 27:33I hope that they all end up having to pay
- 27:35a damn king's ransom. But at the end of the day,
- 27:39that doesn't really hurt them, does it, because they have
- 27:41more money than Scrooge mcdug. The only way that this
- 27:44is ever gonna hurt anybody is if people are indicted
- 27:47and people go to jail, but we know from past
- 27:50experiences that that is not going to happen. All right, folks,
- 27:55that's gonna do it for this one. All of the
- 27:57information that goes with the episode can be in the
- 28:00description box. What's up everyone, and welcome back to the
- 28:05Epstein Chronicles. You know, folks, when you're young, all you
- 28:09want to do is get older, right, I know when
- 28:12I was sixteen, seventeen years old, I cannot wait to
- 28:16be twenty one. But then, what nobody tells you is
- 28:20that once you hit that mark, of twenty one. It's
- 28:23all downhill from there, folks. And as your boy comes
- 28:27sliding into the weekend, all busted up, all dented up,
- 28:31he's staring down his forty second birthday. Now imagine that,
- 28:36my loud mouthed ass, forty two years old. I can't
- 28:40even believe it. Honestly, it seems like it all happened
- 28:42in just a minute. When I was younger, my dad
- 28:45used to say to me all the time, you know,
- 28:47no matter what good or bad, when it's all over
- 28:50and done with, it seems like it was just a minute.
- 28:53And no truer words have ever been spoken to me
- 28:56in my whole life, no matter what has happened to me,
- 28:59either good, good or bad, when you look back on it,
- 29:02it seems like it was just a minute. And you
- 29:06can certainly say that about my youth. It seems like
- 29:09just yesterday I was running around Las Vegas like a maniac,
- 29:14going to parties and clubs, staying out all night, getting
- 29:17absolutely shit face wasted, acting like a complete moron. And
- 29:23now I look at my life and it's completely different, right,
- 29:27and it seems like it was just a minute ago.
- 29:29I don't go out anymore. I don't drink, I don't party,
- 29:33you know. So it's crazy when you start looking back
- 29:37at you know, where you were to where you are
- 29:41and you say to yourself, how in the hell did
- 29:44I get here relatively unscathed? But here we are, folks.
- 29:49Another trip around the sun is on its way, and
- 29:52I just want to thank all of you for, you know,
- 29:55sticking around for all these years, all this time, all
- 29:58these months, and joining me on this journey, because honestly,
- 30:03what's the point without all of you tuning in? You know?
- 30:07It's it's a very enjoyable thing for me to do.
- 30:12Every day, get up and know that I'm going to
- 30:15be able to communicate with all of you. I'm going
- 30:17to get those emails, We're going to talk on Twitter
- 30:20or whatever it is. But it's very enjoyable for me
- 30:24to be doing this at this point in my career
- 30:27as opposed to, you know, stuck in the corporate world.
- 30:31And as long as the content continues to resonate with
- 30:35all of you, one thing I can promise is that me,
- 30:39my beard, and my big fat mouth will continue to
- 30:42be here chopping it up. So with that said, just
- 30:48a quick update, quick reminder that on Tuesday, the fifteenth,
- 30:52I will be joined by my good friend Maria Farmer. Now,
- 30:55Maria and I are relatively close off of you know,
- 31:00the Internet or whatever. We talk quite a bit, and
- 31:04I have a massive amount of respect for the courage
- 31:09and the fortitude that Maria has shown as a survivor here.
- 31:14But even more, I have a lot of respect for
- 31:17Maria as a person and as a friend at this point.
- 31:20So I'm really excited to have her come onto the show.
- 31:23I'm really excited to chop it up with her, and
- 31:25I'm really excited to catch up with her so that
- 31:28all of you folks have an idea on where she's
- 31:31at all. Right, So onto today we have an article
- 31:35from the Daily Mail, and this article is about our
- 31:40good friend Jess Staley's bitch ass. Now, this whole entire
- 31:45thing with Staley has been going on for quite some
- 31:46time throughout the pandemic. We were talking about it and
- 31:50I said then that if it wasn't for the pandemic,
- 31:53Jess Staley would have been bumped a long time ago. Well,
- 31:57obviously they didn't want to upset the Apple car during
- 32:00the pandemic, so Staley stuck around. They stuck with him,
- 32:04but now, obviously things have started to level out a
- 32:07little bit and they've taken a look at the lay
- 32:10of the land and they've decided yet not a great
- 32:12idea to have Jess Staley around as part of our company.
- 32:16So Staley was given his walking papers. But before all
- 32:20of that happened, in twenty nineteen, the Bank of England,
- 32:25their alert was so high on Epstein and Staley's relationship
- 32:30that the chairman was called to the Bank of England's
- 32:35office and it was grilled over Jess Staley and Jess
- 32:40Staley's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. That goes to show you
- 32:45how deep these ties were, and it also goes to
- 32:47show you how much of a liar Jess Staley was
- 32:50about the depth of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Headline
- 32:57Bank of England's Epstein alert on Barclay chief two years
- 33:01ago Chairman grilled over Staley's links to Pedophile that would
- 33:05lead to downfall. So look, this has all been going
- 33:08on for a very very long time, right with Jess Staley,
- 33:11And like usual when it comes to the financial sector,
- 33:14it all came down to the bottom line. We can't
- 33:17get rid of Staley because that'll ruin the bottom line.
- 33:19To hell with these survivors, to hell with these girls,
- 33:22to hell with what they went through doesn't matter to
- 33:25us over here at Barclays. And I've told this story before.
- 33:28When I was on my way to New Mexico to
- 33:30go check out Zoro Ranch, they were offering these Barclays
- 33:35credit cards with very favorable Frequent Flyer miles on it
- 33:39and stuff like that. And usually I jump out an
- 33:42opportunity to get some free miles or whatever it might be.
- 33:46But I will have nothing to do with any of
- 33:49these banks that had anything to do with Jeffrey Epstein.
- 33:51I refuse. You know, people make their stand however they
- 33:54want to make their stand right. And I'm not really
- 33:56a Boycott kind of person. I don't get on board
- 33:59with Boycott's ever follow the crowd. I am not a
- 34:01herd animal. But what I will tell you is this,
- 34:05I'm not gonna do business with someone who is enabling
- 34:08Jeffrey Epstein. Sorry. And as far as my banking goes,
- 34:12I use a community bank, a credit reserve here in
- 34:17Las Vegas. I'm not banking with these people. So I'm not,
- 34:21like I said, I'm not really big on Boycott's or whatever.
- 34:23But silently. You know, I move in my own way.
- 34:27I don't need to pronounce and announce everything that I'm
- 34:29doing right, because again, I don't care what other people
- 34:33think about me. I'm not here for the pats on
- 34:36the back. I'm not here for the credit. I'm here
- 34:39to talk about these scumbag sons of bitches that are
- 34:42ruining all of our lives. And I'm going to continue
- 34:45to talk about these people and not get dragged into
- 34:49the other nonsense because really, at the end of the day,
- 34:51these people are the biggest problem. We have people like
- 34:54Jess Staley, the institutions that support him, and the institutions
- 34:58that continue to enable people like Jeffrey Epstein. The Governor
- 35:06of the Bank of England summoned the chairman of Barclays
- 35:09to grill him about the links between the lenders then
- 35:12chief executive Jess Staley and the sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
- 35:16The Mail on Sunday can reveal, so they have known
- 35:19about this, right, this has been you know, something that
- 35:22has been whispered about anyway, that Jess Staley was under
- 35:26a tremendous amount of pressure internally and externally due to
- 35:30his relationship with Epstein. But now that it's coming out
- 35:34that the chairman of Barclays had to go and sit
- 35:39down with the Governor of the Bank of England, Yeah,
- 35:42not a very good look. And we see now things
- 35:46are starting to come to the forefront about how some
- 35:49of these oligarchs move their money around these banks. A
- 35:51lot of people aren't hip to that, right, People don't
- 35:54really pay attention to it. It's not very interesting for
- 35:57the most part. Nobody gives a shit where someone else
- 35:59had or money parked until something occurs, right until there's
- 36:03some kind of situation where this person is under the
- 36:08spotlight for dubious dealings or bad deals or whatever it is.
- 36:13But I just go into all of these discussions and
- 36:16conversations automatically thinking that all of these rich people were
- 36:20talking about are scummy and up to no good, And
- 36:24it seems like inevitably every single time we start reading
- 36:28about one of them, that is actually what turns out
- 36:31to be the case. The meeting in twenty nineteen was
- 36:36convened due to concerns that Nigel Higgins may have understated
- 36:41the extent of Staley's relationship with Epstein in a letter
- 36:44he had sent to regulators. Now, look, is there any
- 36:47more of a British name than Nigel Higgins before we
- 36:51go on any further. That is like your quintessential English name. No,
- 36:55kind of like John Smith and America. Nigel Higgins sounds
- 36:59like some kind of author or poet. The existence of
- 37:03the letter has remained secret until now. It's always a
- 37:06secret with these people, right, Oh, well, we can't let
- 37:09anybody know what's going on. Well, can't have any transparency whatsoever.
- 37:14And then they wonder why nobody trusts them. Higgins, who
- 37:18is still in the chair at Barclay's, was grilled by
- 37:22the then Governor Mark Carney and Andrew Bailey, who was
- 37:25Chief Executive of the Financial Conduct Authority at the time
- 37:29but has since taken the top job at the bank,
- 37:32you know. And it's always a revolving door for these people, right,
- 37:35regulators or otherwise they end up getting a job in
- 37:38the financial sector. They end up getting a job working
- 37:41for the very people that they were supposed to be regulating.
- 37:45And it's just a joke. It's just like when we
- 37:47have our elected officials go to Congress or go to
- 37:50the Senate and they go in there with like a
- 37:51net worth of one hundred and fifty grand, two hundred grand,
- 37:54and then they come out with a net worth of
- 37:56like eight million dollars. Must be nice, how that hell
- 38:00hill do you make eight million dollars when you're making
- 38:04a congressman's salary. But for the most part, we're willing
- 38:09to look away and not dig too deep on stuff
- 38:11like that. Then you get to this other scummy shit
- 38:15of you people helping to enable people like Epstein. And
- 38:18that's where we run into a problem, isn't it, Because again,
- 38:21we all expect these politicians to steal, we all expect
- 38:25them to lie. But you're not going to traffic children,
- 38:28you're not going to enable it, and we're not just
- 38:30gonna sit around and accept it. It is highly unusual
- 38:37for the governor to haul up a bank chairman for
- 38:40questioning over the conduct of a chief executive, indicating the
- 38:44extent of the bank's disquiet. So look again, this was
- 38:48twenty nineteen, folks. They knew they were gonna keep it
- 38:52under wraps, keep just daily there as long as possible,
- 38:56because it's all about the bottom line. At places like Barclays,
- 38:59it always will be. You're not even a human being
- 39:02to them, You really think they care if you can
- 39:05pay your bills, or if you have medical bills that
- 39:07need to be paid, or you know, whatever it might be.
- 39:10You think Barclays gives a fly, and fuck they do not.
- 39:14None of these banks do, and all of these dudes
- 39:18at the top are I hate to say it, but
- 39:20the smarmiest of the smarmy mfs running around in the
- 39:24world today. Most of them have something to do with
- 39:26the financial sector. And I hate to say that because
- 39:30I have a lot of friends who work in the
- 39:31financial sector. But it's not like I don't say this
- 39:34to their face when we have conversations. I tell them
- 39:37straight up, the greatest day of my life was when
- 39:40I evacuated the premises and didn't have to deal with
- 39:43you scoundrels anymore. Because it's just the whole entire industry
- 39:49is corrupt, and when you're dealing with that amount of money,
- 39:51what do you expect. You know. I'm not big on
- 39:55over burdensome regulations on businesses for the most part, but
- 39:59when we t talk about the financial sector, these people
- 40:02have to be slapped. They have to be brought under control,
- 40:05and they have to be brought to heel. They have
- 40:08so much control over what goes on in our lives
- 40:11and about the quality of our lives. I don't understand
- 40:14how more people don't see what's going on here. Carney
- 40:20stopped short of telling Higgins to al Staley. However, a
- 40:23source said he gave Higgins the very clear impression the
- 40:26board would want to consider the position of their chief
- 40:29executive officer. So he didn't say, hey, look, you better
- 40:32dump Staley, but he gave him a wink, wink, nudge nudge. Right, Look,
- 40:35Staley's no good for you, guys. You're gonna have to
- 40:37get rid of him. He can't stick around. There's no
- 40:40way you're going to be able to continue to do
- 40:42business with Staley at the head of the table. And
- 40:46while it took a while for it to come to fruition,
- 40:49because well that's how shit moves in the financial sector,
- 40:53finally we're in a place where bitch ass Jess Staley
- 40:56is no longer in charge at Barclays. Staley only resigned
- 41:01in November last year after an investigation by city watchdogs
- 41:05into how he characterized his relationship with the disgraced financier
- 41:10Pedophile Epstein and what you think. He just he left
- 41:14because he's such a good guy. He felt bad, he
- 41:17felt remorseful, his moral compass started to work again. Zero chance.
- 41:21Oh boy, knew the writing was on the wall. And
- 41:23instead of being given his walking papers, ah you know,
- 41:26I'll just Higgins' meeting with the Bank of England Chiefs
- 41:30took place almost two years earlier, in December twenty nineteen.
- 41:34It has understood Higgins's letter was written just weeks after
- 41:37the death of Epstein in jail. So look, this is again.
- 41:40This has been going on for so long, and behind
- 41:43the scenes with Barclays anyway, it's all about the almighty dollar,
- 41:47all of these banks, and look, I'm all about it, right,
- 41:50secure that bag. That's what we're all trying to do here.
- 41:53Let's not cut corners. I'm never going to be somebody
- 41:56that is shitting on people who worked hard to get
- 41:59where they are. And I don't care how much money
- 42:01you make, But does that mean you have to be
- 42:03a piece of shit human being? It seems like every
- 42:06time these people start making a bunch of dough, they
- 42:08become pieces of shit, or maybe they already were. But
- 42:11the point is, just because you have a bunch of money,
- 42:14Just because you have a bunch of power doesn't mean
- 42:16you have to be an absolute prick. The missive is
- 42:23understood to have vouched that there was nothing improper in
- 42:26the relationship between Staley and Epstein and to have triggered
- 42:29the pro by regulators that eventually led to his departure
- 42:33from the bank. So basically just lying about things right
- 42:36the Higgins Nigel Higgins lying about Epstein's relationship with Staley,
- 42:43covering for Staley, all because Staley was making him money
- 42:46at the bank. And that's what it comes down to.
- 42:48Do not misunderstand me here. It is all about money
- 42:51for these people. Every last thing they do. They wake
- 42:54up in the morning thinking about it, they go to bed,
- 42:57they think about it. Everything is about and they don't
- 43:01care about you or anyone else on theirs in their
- 43:04pursuit of it. The revelations will put a spotlight on
- 43:10judgment made by Barclays Board almost two years before Staley's departure.
- 43:14Epstein had been a client of Staley's when the latter
- 43:17was a private banker at JP Morgan. He left the
- 43:20bank in twenty thirteen. Funny Epstein happened to leave the
- 43:23bank soon after Huh Staley visited Epstein on his private
- 43:28island in the Caribbean on a sailing trip with his
- 43:31wife in twenty fifteen, just months before taking charge of
- 43:35the High Street Bank. And it's funny when people are like, well,
- 43:38he was with his wife on the island. Well, maybe
- 43:40his wife is into weird shit too. Well, you've never
- 43:42seen a couple that are into some gonzo as weird shit.
- 43:45Of course there's people out there like that, And again
- 43:48not judging. If you want to do whatever you want
- 43:50to do in your bedroom and it includes you and
- 43:53your significant other, one of you dressing as an alligator
- 43:56or a crocodile and the other one dressing as Steve Irwin,
- 43:59I don't care. That's cool, have fun, cave a blast.
- 44:02I enjoy as long as it's between consenting adults. What
- 44:05happens in anyone's bedroom or anyone's love life is certainly
- 44:09not my business. But this dude down on this island
- 44:13hanging out and then to say, oh, well, I was
- 44:15with my wife, like that's an excuse. Breaking news. Thirty
- 44:18eight percent of people involved in human trafficking as traffickers
- 44:23are women, so that's not really a defense in itself.
- 44:31The investigation into Staley's sixty five first became public in
- 44:34early twenty twenty, at which point the board said it
- 44:37had full confidence in him. Remember what I said during
- 44:40that time, they do not have full confidence in him.
- 44:43I didn't have like a line directly to their boardroom
- 44:46or whatever. But if you listen to the whispers in
- 44:49the financial sector, the whispers on Wall Street, it tells
- 44:52you everything you need to know. And those whispers had
- 44:54been that jeff Staley was in serious trouble. He stepped
- 44:59down four months ago upon seeing the findings of the inquiry,
- 45:03which are not yet public. Staley has always insisted he
- 45:07had a purely professional relationship with Epstein. He intends to
- 45:11contest the conclusions of the probe, so they must be brutal, right.
- 45:14If he plans to contest the conclusions of the probe
- 45:18and he ended up losing his job for all of this,
- 45:21you know that every single thing in that report is
- 45:25going to be brutal for Jess Staley's bitch ass. He
- 45:30said in twenty twenty, with hindsight, with what we know now,
- 45:34I deeply regret having any relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, but
- 45:37added that he had been very transparent. Do all of
- 45:40these people play from the same playbook. They all say
- 45:43the same thing. I deeply regret my relationship with Epstein. Bitch,
- 45:47you knew who he was. It was after his conviction.
- 45:49Don't act like you had no idea who you were
- 45:51hanging out with. Barclay said, it should be noted the
- 45:56investigation makes no findings that mister Staley so or was
- 46:00aware of any of mister Epstein's alleged crimes, which was
- 46:04the central question underpinning barclay support for mister Staley following
- 46:09the arrest of mister Epstein in the summer of twenty
- 46:12and nineteen. The Bank of England and the FCA declined
- 46:16to comment. Look, it's all bs. Jess Staley knew the deal,
- 46:20he knew what was up. In my opinion anyway, him
- 46:22and Jeffrey Epstein were super tight. You don't make those
- 46:25kind of money money moves for somebody and not be
- 46:28sharing a stake with him, all right, And we're talking
- 46:30hundreds of millions of dollars. And furthermore, while I can't
- 46:34you know, prove this, how many of those deals that
- 46:38Staley was facilitating were made with ill gotten gains? And
- 46:42thus how deep would Staley be if we had a
- 46:47real investigation here, if we had an investigation that included Rico.
- 46:55All right, folks, that's gonna do it for episode number
- 46:57one of the day. Obviously, much more to come, much
- 47:01more is on the way. Hope you all have a
- 47:05great morning. If you'd like to contact me, you can
