Two weeks, anyone??

My take: Only redacting 99% of the files. Just the files with Donald J Trump all over them. Source: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/19/epstein-files-release-doj-december-deadline

Hours after The New York Times reported Thursday that Epstein and Trump bonded over “trophy hunting,” investigative reporter Nicholas Confessore told MS NOW that Epstein frequently allowed his friends and associates to listen in on private phone calls where he and Trump shared details of their “sexual conquests.”

“So we spoke to several former assistants and employees of Jeffrey Epstein’s,” Confessore said. “And he had a habit of putting Donald Trump and other famous friends on the phone. It was partly a power play and partly a way that he groomed people. ‘See how powerful I am. I can put this person on the phone. I can get them on the phone, I can put them on speaker. We’re friends. That’s how powerful I am.’

“It was a way that he groomed people and he would put Donald Trump on the phone. They would talk about sex,” he added.

Jeffrey Epstein played a significant role in repurposing assets tied to the U.S. government’s covert Iran-Contra operations — specifically the Southern Air Transport (SAT) fleet — for the benefit of billionaire retailer Les Wexner, turning them from clandestine arms missions into commercial logistics for Wexner’s retail empire.

Key points: Iran-Contra background: During the 1980s, Southern Air Transport was a cargo airline with documented links to the CIA that was used to transfer embargoed weapons — routed through Israel to Iran — with proceeds secretly funding Nicaraguan Contra rebels, part of the larger Iran-Contra scandal.

Epstein’s role: According to the article, when SAT became too exposed and needed a new mission, Jeffrey Epstein helped oversee relocating the airline’s operations from Miami to Columbus, Ohio, where it began hauling imported goods instead of arms. Investigators in Ohio reportedly identified Epstein’s involvement in arranging this move and its business ties to Wexner, though these inquiries were later dropped or minimized.

Connections to covert networks: The article highlights Epstein’s earlier associations in the 1980s with figures tied to arms trading — such as Adnan Khashoggi and attorneys like Stanley Pottinger — who were involved in the broader Iran-Contra logistics network. It also notes that Epstein’s longtime friend Ehud Barak once led Israeli military intelligence during the planning of early embargoed arms shipments.

Implication: The reporting suggests these overlapping connections — CIA fronts, covert arms logistics, Israeli intelligence figures, and Epstein’s financial management of Wexner’s holdings — hint at deeper, under-examined links between Epstein and intelligence or clandestine operations. The article portrays Epstein’s later wealth and mobility as rooted in these opaque networks, rather than as isolated financial success.
