• 0:00
  Speaker 1: What's up everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
• 0:02
  Epstein Chronicles. So Howard Lutnick has just given an interview,
• 0:09
  and in that interview, he was talking about Jeffrey Epstein,
• 0:12
  who happened to be his next door neighbor. And according
• 0:16
  to the interview he gave on podforth one, he says
• 0:20
  that Jeffrey Epstein is the greatest black mailer ever. And
• 0:23
  according to Howard Lutnik, him and his wife went to
• 0:26
  Epstein's one time and never went back again because how
• 0:29
  creepy it was. And in an episode coming up, after
• 0:33
  we set the tone here with this article, I'm going
• 0:35
  to talk to you a little bit more about my
• 0:37
  experience working for Howard Lutnik. That's right, folks, I worked
• 0:42
  for Canner Fitzgerald. A lot of you know that. Some
• 0:45
  of you might not know that, but I worked for
• 0:48
  their gaming division in Las Vegas and the name of
• 0:50
  that division was Canner Gaming at first, and then the
• 0:55
  name was changed to CG Gaming. The boss, Howard let Nick,
• 1:01
  his chief here in town Liamidas And for those of
• 1:04
  you who don't know, the company ended up getting smacked
• 1:08
  with the biggest fine ever given out by the Gaming Commission.
• 1:12
  So We're going to talk more about that story in
• 1:14
  an episode coming up later today, but first we're going
• 1:17
  to set the table and talk about what Howard Lutnik
• 1:19
  had to say when it comes to his ex neighbor
• 1:22
  Jeffrey Epstein. This article was published by The New York
• 1:26
  Post headline Howard Lutnick calls X neighbor Jeffrey Epstein greatest
• 1:31
  blackmailer ever in podforst one interview. This article was authored
• 1:36
  by Josh Christiansen. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, in a notable
• 1:41
  break with the Department of Justice, claim late pedophile Jeffrey
• 1:45
  Epstein was the greatest blackmailer ever and may have traded
• 1:48
  the fed's video of his rich and well connected associates
• 1:51
  getting massages from young women in exchange for a controversial
• 1:55
  two thousand and eight plea deal. Say what now, Howard
• 1:59
  Lutnick coming out out and smitten some truth. Certainly not
• 2:03
  my experience working for the guy, but here we are.
• 2:05
  And I think it's significant to note that Lutnik is
• 2:08
  one of Trump's biggest confidants, So him coming out and
• 2:11
  saying this is pretty wild. Honestly, it goes directly in
• 2:14
  the face of what we've been told by the DOJ,
• 2:17
  by Trump himself, so I wonder what the play is
• 2:20
  here now. Of course, you know, I'm very cynical when
• 2:23
  it comes to all of this, so I always think
• 2:25
  there's some kind of play in motion. So we'll have
• 2:28
  to wait to see the other shoe drop. But there's
• 2:31
  no doubt that he's off the reservation when it comes
• 2:33
  to this kind of commentary. The question is is it
• 2:36
  by design? The sixty four year old Cabinet secretary set
• 2:41
  Epstein himself showed off his notorious massage room while giving
• 2:45
  Lutnik and his wife a tour of the infamous seventy
• 2:48
  first Street townhouse after the couple moved in next door
• 2:52
  to the sinse disgraced financier in two thousand and five. Like,
• 2:56
  imagine living next to Epstein and not knowing what's going on,
• 2:59
  or pretending you don't know. He knows, and that's why
• 3:03
  he's coming out and saying this. You know, Epstein's predation
• 3:06
  was so in your face and so brazen that anybody
• 3:09
  who was around him for any period of time can't
• 3:13
  really run around and talk about, Oh, I had no
• 3:15
  idea what was going on. At the very least you
• 3:18
  had to suspect that dude was up to no good,
• 3:20
  and if not, it's probably because you were willfully ignoring it.
• 3:27
  I say to him, massage tables in the middle of
• 3:30
  your house. How often do you have a massage, Lutnick recalled,
• 3:34
  And he says every day. And then he gets like
• 3:37
  weirdly close to me, and he says, and the right
• 3:39
  kind of massage, as in, hey, mister Lutnik, want to
• 3:43
  come over and get a little tuggy tug tug, basically
• 3:46
  what Epstein's saying. And if you think that it was
• 3:49
  only how are Lutnik that he was talking to like this,
• 3:52
  You're crazy. This is how these people talk. We all
• 3:55
  saw the birthday book. We saw the messages. So don't
• 3:58
  sit here and think that they are talk looking differently,
• 4:01
  especially when they're in private. Now, when they're in public,
• 4:04
  they're gonna have their best face on. Right. They're all
• 4:06
  great people. They're all fantastic pillars of the community, the
• 4:10
  real Salt and Earth type. The second the door closes,
• 4:15
  the mask comes off, and the beast the merges. Lunnix
• 4:19
  said that he and his wife quickly excuse themselves and
• 4:22
  left Epstein's home and in the six to eight steps
• 4:25
  it takes to get from his house to my house.
• 4:27
  My wife and I decided that I will never be
• 4:30
  in the room with that disgusting person ever again. Well,
• 4:34
  I don't know if that's true or not. But throughout
• 4:36
  all the history and all the research, Lutnick's name hasn't
• 4:40
  popped up in any of these you know, adventures that
• 4:43
  Epstein was on. Now, were they hanging out at Epstein's
• 4:46
  house or was Epstein over at his house? I don't know.
• 4:49
  I mean, they're neighbors, but just because their neighbors doesn't
• 4:52
  mean they're friends. I know I have neighbors that I
• 4:54
  wouldn't associate with, not because they're you know, child molesters,
• 4:58
  but because we're just different people. Right Besides the casual
• 5:02
  wave and nod, hello, how you doing, we have nothing
• 5:04
  in common, no reason for me to be going to
• 5:07
  their little party or barbecue or whatever. When asked by
• 5:10
  the Vine, whether Epstein's rich and powerful associates, including the
• 5:14
  likes of Prince Andrew and Microsoft founder of Bill Gates,
• 5:17
  could hang around him and not see what you saw,
• 5:19
  or did they see it and ignore it, Lutnik responded,
• 5:22
  they participated. They get a massage. That was his m
• 5:26
  O was get a massage, get a massage. And what
• 5:29
  happened in the massage room I assume was on video.
• 5:32
  The Commerce Secretary went on, this guy was the greatest
• 5:35
  blackmailer ever, blackmailed people, that's how he made money. And
• 5:39
  this isn't some regular person telling you this, This isn't
• 5:42
  me telling you this. This is Trump's Commerce Secretary, Jeffrey
• 5:46
  Epstein's neighbor, a guy that knows what's up. And as
• 5:50
  much as I'm not a big fan of Howard Lutnick,
• 5:53
  he's telling the truth here. All these people were definitely
• 5:56
  in that massage room, get massages, and god knows what else.
• 6:02
  And if you think it wasn't recorded, if you think
• 6:04
  there's no video, you have not been paying attention. A
• 6:09
  spokesperson for Bill Gates told The Post in a statement,
• 6:11
  this is absolutely false. Gates met with Epstein to discuss
• 6:15
  philanthropy and nothing else. Well, why hasn't Bill Gates suit anybody?
• 6:20
  A lot of people have had a lot to say
• 6:21
  about Bill Gates when it comes to Epstein, and he
• 6:23
  hasn't said shit. Why not sue somebody? If you're so
• 6:27
  innocent and look normal people like me and you. It's
• 6:31
  a whole different story, right, we want to get into
• 6:32
  a lawsuit, it's gonna cost a bunch of dough. A
• 6:35
  guy like Bill Gates got more money than he knows
• 6:38
  what to do with. So if this is all a
• 6:40
  bunch of bs and everybody is lying on you, and
• 6:42
  everybody's telling falsehoods, why doesn't your bitch ass sue somebody?
• 6:48
  Lutnick added, I assume way back when they traded those
• 6:51
  videos in exchange for him getting that eighteen month sentence
• 6:55
  which allowed him to have visits to be out of jail.
• 6:58
  I mean, he's a serial sex offend. How could he
• 7:00
  get eighteen months and be able to go to his
• 7:03
  office during the day and his visitors and stuff. There
• 7:06
  must have been a trade. So my assumption, I have
• 7:09
  no knowledge, but my assumption is there was a trade
• 7:12
  for the videos because there were people on those videos.
• 7:15
  He also claimed. So is Howard Lutnick a conspiracy theorist
• 7:20
  because he's saying the same exact thing I've been saying
• 7:23
  that the videos exist. Now, I won't say who's on
• 7:26
  those videos because I don't know. I'm not gonna sit
• 7:28
  here and make pretend I have a list of people
• 7:31
  that I can give you who were on the video,
• 7:33
  or who were in the house or whatever. I don't know.
• 7:35
  All I know is what's been reported and what's been
• 7:38
  told to us by the survivors. But anyone who thinks
• 7:40
  they weren't recording in there, they weren't using these videos
• 7:44
  to make dossier's, you're crazy. The DOJ and the FBI
• 7:49
  released a memo July six claiming a systematic review had
• 7:53
  found that Epstein held no client list of rich and
• 7:56
  powerful associates. Well, that was all part of the hustle.
• 8:00
  There was never a list. The same thing I've told
• 8:03
  you for years now, don't get bogged down with all
• 8:05
  the bs. Whenever you hear something catching fire in the media,
• 8:10
  always ask yourself why why are they talking about it now?
• 8:12
  Why they're bringing it up? And the list was always
• 8:16
  a distraction. The memo also stated that there was no
• 8:20
  credible evidence found that Epstein black mel prominent individuals as
• 8:24
  part of his actions, and no evidence that could predicate
• 8:27
  an investigation against uncharged third parties, despite Epstein having harmed
• 8:32
  over one thousand victims, Like, how can anyone believe it? Like, honestly,
• 8:36
  how can anyone believe it. I mean they use the
• 8:38
  same game plan, the same blueprint, every time they want
• 8:41
  to cover something up. I mean, look at the octopus murders.
• 8:44
  Look at what happened with the promise software. It goes
• 8:47
  on and on and on. Epstein, sixty six, was found
• 8:52
  dead in his Manhattan lock up on August tenth, twenty nineteen,
• 8:56
  while awaiting federal trial on sex trafficking charges. More than
• 9:00
  a decade prior, he had been forced in two thousand
• 9:03
  and eight to register as a sex offender and plead
• 9:05
  guilty to a Florida charges of soliciting prostitution and soliciting
• 9:10
  a minor for sex as part of an agreement that'saw
• 9:13
  him served no more than thirteen months confinement, most of
• 9:16
  it on work release. So you know, like when you
• 9:19
  were younger and your parents tried to ground you and
• 9:22
  you were so fucking annoying they let you go outside.
• 9:25
  Basically what happened here. Mister billionaire child diddler throws a fit,
• 9:28
  so they give him what he wants. Epstein quietly paid
• 9:34
  girls hundreds of dollars to give him massages in his
• 9:36
  Florida home, though none who spoke with law enforcement said
• 9:40
  there were video recordings made of the encounters. According to
• 9:43
  a twenty twenty DOJ Office of Professional Responsibility report on
• 9:48
  the prosecution, that's because those encounters were for Epstein's own proclivities,
• 9:53
  his own desires, his own degeneracy. The other girls, those
• 9:58
  were the girls that were being farmed out, the girls
• 10:01
  from Eastern Europe, the girls from South America, etc. Don't
• 10:06
  let them conflate the issue. The South Florida US Attorney's Office,
• 10:09
  headed up then by Alex Acosta, had reached a non
• 10:12
  prosecution agreement with Epstein due to evidentiary issues, in order
• 10:16
  to force the financier a cop to stay charges. Acosta
• 10:20
  has since expressed remorse about how its terms were not followed.
• 10:24
  Oh yeah, mister Acosta, another great guy, not the man
• 10:28
  who's responsible for this, but certainly the man who acted
• 10:33
  as the patsy and certainly a willing participant. So yeah,
• 10:37
  Acosta being slammed, he deserves all of it. But let's
• 10:41
  not forget he wasn't the one who gave the final
• 10:44
  lo k for that deal that came from Muchesi, that
• 10:47
  came from Phelipe. The Palm Beach State Attorney's originally proposed
• 10:51
  resolution no jail time for sex offender registration was unacceptable
• 10:55
  to mister Acosta and his team, said attorney Jeffrey Neeman,
• 10:59
  who represent he entered the ex Miami prosecutor before a
• 11:02
  House panel grilling earlier this month. Mister Acosta took responsibility
• 11:07
  for approving the final resolution, admitting that relying on the
• 11:11
  state system was a mistake. Nieman added, saying Epstein's sentencing
• 11:15
  and sex Offenderal Registry sent a message to the community
• 11:18
  that Epstein's conduct was unacceptable. I mean, how can you
• 11:21
  say that with a straight face? Now, I know you're
• 11:23
  a lawyer and all that, but really two years ago,
• 11:27
  a photo allegedly taken by Epstein showing himself with Gates
• 11:31
  at the Microsoft founder's Seattle office in March twenty fifteen,
• 11:35
  six years after he registered as a sex offender and
• 11:37
  went to prison, Gates met Epstein for the first time
• 11:41
  face to face at dinner in the latter's Manhattan townhouse
• 11:44
  in January twenty eleven. According to The New York Times,
• 11:49
  President Trump enjoyed a close association with Epstein in the
• 11:52
  nineties and early two thousands, but revealed earlier this year
• 11:56
  he had booted Epstein from his Mara a Lago club
• 11:58
  after finding out that the pervert was recruiting messus is
• 12:02
  from the SPA to work for his letcherus ends. Hold up, messuses,
• 12:09
  Virginia was a SPA girl, not even of age. You
• 12:12
  have to be eighteen to be a massus breaking news.
• 12:16
  Virginia was not eighteen, so she was not a massuse.
• 12:20
  Call it what it is. A little girl taken from
• 12:22
  a job that people get in high school. Right, I'm
• 12:25
  gonna be a SPA attendant. I'm gonna go and be
• 12:28
  a caddy. I'm gonna go and work, et cetera, et cetera.
• 12:32
  But for Glenn Maxwell and for this disgusting fuck Jeffrey Epstein,
• 12:36
  that became a fertile hunting ground so they can go
• 12:39
  and find, as Glenn Maxwell put it, new Biles. People
• 12:44
  were taken out of the SPA hired by him Trump
• 12:46
  tole reporters aboard Air Force one July twenty ninth. When
• 12:50
  I heard about it, I told him, I said, listen,
• 12:52
  we don't want you taking our people, whether it was
• 12:54
  a SPA or not SPA, I don't want him taking people.
• 12:57
  And he was fine, And then not too long after
• 12:59
  that he did it again, and I said out of here. Well,
• 13:03
  we all know that there's multiple versions of that story too,
• 13:06
  So who the hell knows what's true and what's not.
• 13:09
  What we do know is that the two did have
• 13:11
  a relationship, that the two were friendly, and that the
• 13:14
  two did have a falling out. What we don't have
• 13:16
  are the details, right, We don't have all of the
• 13:19
  inside information about what Epstein and Trump were up to,
• 13:21
  if they were up to anything together. But what we
• 13:24
  do know for sure, and what I can tell you concretely,
• 13:28
  is that what's going on now is a cover up.
• 13:31
  So the question once again becomes who are you protecting
• 13:35
  and why. All of the information that goes with this
• 13:39
  episode can be found in the description box.
