URGENT UPDATE: New revelations from the Department of Justice have exposed top Trump official Howard Lutnick for lying about his connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The latest documents reveal Lutnick misled the public regarding his interactions with Epstein, raising serious questions about his integrity.
In a damning statement, Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA), the leading Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, stated, “Lutnick said he had zero interactions with Epstein after 2005 – looks like they were actually in business together. We have some serious questions.” This statement comes after Lutnick previously claimed he cut ties with Epstein following a visit to his New York residence in 2005.
The shocking details emerged following the release of approximately 3.5 million pages of Epstein-related documents last week. These files indicate that Lutnick continued to engage with Epstein as recently as 2012, planning a family visit to Epstein’s private island. Furthermore, it was reported that Lutnick and Epstein maintained a business relationship well into 2014, involving financial dealings tied to a now-defunct advertising technology firm called Adfin.
Emails disclosed by the DOJ reveal that Lutnick and Epstein had ongoing communications, including arranging phone calls and meetings as late as 2011. In a notable exchange in 2017, Epstein expressed intentions to donate $50,000 to a gala honoring Lutnick, and Lutnick directly contacted Epstein in 2018 regarding real estate issues.
A spokesperson from the Commerce Department responded to the allegations, claiming, “Lutnick has never been accused of wrongdoing.” The spokesperson criticized media coverage as a distraction from the Trump administration’s achievements, which purportedly include “securing trillions of dollars in investment” and “historic trade deals.”
These revelations have sparked outrage and concern among lawmakers and the public, especially given Lutnick’s previous assertions. The implications of these findings could lead to further inquiries into Lutnick’s dealings and the extent of Epstein’s influence over powerful figures.
As this story continues to develop, the impact on Lutnick’s reputation and potential legal consequences remain to be seen. Expect more updates as investigations proceed and more details emerge.
Stay tuned for further developments on this urgent matter that could reshape the narrative surrounding powerful individuals linked to Epstein.
