Tomorrow's Video Chat Will Be Live From The Epstein Files Reading Room In New York

Tune in on Wednesday May 13th at 5pm ET

Hey Everyone,

Tomorrow (Wednesday May 13) is an important milestone in the ongoing congressional investigation into the Epstein Files.

The billionaire financier Leon Black is due to testify in front of the House Oversight Committee. As my readers know, Black paid Epstein approximately $170 million for what he claims was “tax advice.” Many people, including Sen. Ron Wyden, the ranking member on the Senate Finance Committee, who has been looking into Black’s ties to Epstein for several years, find that concept difficult, if not impossible to believe.

Holly Peterson, the writer and daughter of the late billionaire Blackstone founder Pete Peterso, told us a few weeks ago that she did some research and discovered that the appropriate fee for a billionaire to pay their accountant or lawyer for topnotch tax advice is $2.5 million.

So, one hopes that the House members are really prepared ahead of tomorrow’s hearing and will push Black for clear answers. At 5pm ET I will be in conversation with legal analyst, Adam Klasfeld of All Rise News, who, like me as been particularly focused not just Black but all the men in Epstein’s orbit and the money that enabled Epstein’s sex crimes.

I will be broadcasting to you live from the Epstein Files Library in downtown Manhattan.

For those who don’t know, as of last week, here in New York, where I live, there is a physical library - the Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room - containing all 3.5 million pages of of the Epstein Files recently released by the Department of Justice. The files have been printed and bound into more than 3,700 volumes. They line bookshelves around a room which includes a candlelit space which is a tribute to the victims and, on one wall, a timeline of Epstein’s complex relationship with President Trump from 1987 to the present day.

Downstairs there is quiet reading room, where visitors can jot down their thoughts and post them on a board.

It may not sound like much - but trust me: when you walk in, the literal weight of the documents and what they signify is overwhelmingly powerful. I encourage everyone to book on line, and pop in and visit. It’s only here until May 21st.

The project was funded and organized by the Institute for Primary Facts, a nonprofit that describes itself as “advancing civic literacy through immersive traveling museum exhibits.” David Garrett, the organizer told me that since it opened on Thursday it has been fully booked. He tells me that visitors are especially drawn to the timeline, often standing there for ten minutes at a time.

Tomorrow evening a group of Epstein survivors are headed there to gather immediately after my broadcast ends. So, I hope you can join Adam and me for a memorable live video conversation.

And let’s hope we’ve got something to chew on after Leon Black’s congressional testimony.
