The article also raised the conspiracy theory that Epstein was a Mossad agent, a claim that Israel has previously firmly denied. American commentator Megyn Kelly shared Netanyahu's tweet and wrote: "So I guess it's not antisemitic to ask if Epstein as an asset for Israeli intel and we shouldn't just take Ehud Barak's words for it that he wasn't."

Netanyahu's tweet, which has already garnered over 4 million views, reached the author of the article he shared: Branko Marcetic. Marcetic used Netanyahu's action as a supposed confirmation that Israel is committing genocide against children "on a world historical scale." The magazine Jacobin did not ignore this either and wrote: "While you're perusing our magazine in between ordering genocidal war crimes, Mr. Netanyahu, you might be interested in this piece by the same author." The headline of the article the magazine shared was: "Israel's Gaza war is one of history's worst crimes."

Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett tweeted against Netanyahu's move and responded similarly to Netanyahu's reaction to the actions of the IDF: "Sharing by the head of the Israeli government constitutes a huge boost and legitimization for a magazine full of accusations against Israel of genocide, apartheid, and war crimes. Israel's enemies, including the magazine itself, are already celebrating this as proof of the false conspiracies against Israel."

The three email exchanges – all sent after Epstein's 2008 Florida plea deal on state prostitution charges where federal prosecutors declined pursuing charges and years following the early 2000s falling out between the men – included one April 2011 message where Epstein told his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell, later convicted on charges related to facilitating his crimes, "I want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is Trump," adding an unnamed victim "spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned," New York Times noted. Maxwell responded "I have been thinking about that," while a January 2019 email from Epstein to author Michael Wolff declared "Of course he knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop," with House Democrats citing an unnamed whistle-blower indicating Maxwell plans formally requesting Trump commute her 20-year federal sentence, according to New York Times.

Trump has condemned continued questioning as a "hoax" perpetrated by Democrats while calling Epstein a "creep" and insisting he never engaged in wrongdoing with him or Maxwell, though both men split their time between New York and Palm Beach, Florida, maintaining friendship throughout the 1990s and early 2000s before their relationship dissolved around 2004, with varying explanations offered for the split including competitive bidding on Palm Beach real estate, New York Times reported. Last summer Trump stated Epstein had "hired" away Mar-a-Lago spa workers, believing one was Virginia Giuffre, who reported Maxwell recruited her into the sex ring while working at the private club as a teenager, while at the time of Epstein's 2011 email calling Trump the "dog that didn't bark," the president was a reality television star years from his presidency and emailing staff about negative press coverage of Florida abuse, according to New York Times.

The Trump administration released earlier this year a courthouse interview transcript with Maxwell confirming the men once maintained a social relationship but denying any Trump connection to the trafficking network, while Epstein's 2019 email claiming Trump "knew about the girls" and asked Maxwell "to stop" went to Wolff, who had recently published a tell-all book about the president months before the arrest and federal charges sending Epstein to prison, following the Miami Herald's publication of articles renewing focus on his secret 2008 agreement, New York Times noted. Epstein's email referenced a trafficking victim and mentioned Mar-a-Lago while disputing Trump ever requested his club resignation, writing "Never a member ever," according to New York Times.

A third email exchange commenced December 15, 2015, when Wolff warned Epstein that CNN was "planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you — either on air or in scrum afterwards," prompting Epstein to ask "If we were able to craft an answer for him, what do you think it should be?" with Wolff recommending inaction and suggesting Trump might deny close association, writing "I think you should let him hang himself" because "If he says he hasn't been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable P.R. and political currency" usable to "hang him" later or "save him, generating a debt," though debate transcripts show Trump never received the question, New York Times reported.

The email release occurred hours before Speaker Mike Johnson's scheduled swearing-in of Arizona Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva, a Democrat he has avoided seating for nearly two months following her election victory, with Grijalva anticipated to supply the final signature on a petition compelling a House vote demanding the Trump administration release all investigative material concerning Epstein, a measure the White House strongly opposes, New York Times noted.

The previously undisclosed documents show how Epstein transformed his seven-story Upper East Side mansion into a sophisticated salon for entertaining celebrities, academics, and politicians, complete with surveillance cameras, a massage room stocked with lubricant, and walls lined with photos of world leaders including Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and Pope John Paul II.

Barak, Israel's former prime minister, and his spouse observed the remarkable variety of attendees, The New York Times reported. "There is no boundary to your inquisitiveness," the couple wrote in their message, assembled with additional notes in January 2016. "You remain like a sealed volume to numerous guests but you understand everything about every individual."

Media executive Mortimer Zuckerman proposed components for a dinner that would capture the mansion's character, suggesting a basic salad and additional items that "would boost Jeffrey's sexual capabilities," according to The New York Times.

Film director Woody Allen characterized how the gatherings evoked Dracula's fortress, "where Lugosi maintains three youthful female vampires who attend the establishment."

However, Epstein's treasured estate was not a dark Transylvanian stronghold. The financier had invested years converting the seven-floor, 21,000-square-foot residence into a location where he could display – and strengthen – his associations with wealthy and influential individuals, even as indications of his sinister nature remained present, according to previously unrevealed photographs and records demonstrating his lifestyle during his final years.

Following Epstein's death in federal detention in 2019, which authorities ruled a suicide, numerous enigmas about his existence have remained unresolved. How did he accumulate a nine-figure wealth? And why did countless powerful men persist in associating with him long after he became a documented sex offender?

For years, Maxwell was a regular presence in Epstein's New York residence, where she maintained an office. But she and Epstein had separated by the mid-2010s. A mounted photograph in the residence showing Epstein with Donald Trump and his then-girlfriend, Melania Knauss, was edited to remove Maxwell.

The residence was among five properties worldwide owned by Epstein. After his release in 2009 from a Florida detention facility, where he completed 13 months for soliciting prostitution from a minor, the mansion functioned as both a personal retreat and a gathering place where he could entertain accomplished intellectuals, scientists and financiers, according to legal documents and conversations with individuals who regularly visited the home. The guests regarded Epstein as entertaining, intelligent and inquisitive. Another benefit included mingling with the young, attractive women who moved throughout the property and served as his assistants.

The residence, located steps from Central Park, was purchased by Epstein in 1998 from Leslie H. Wexner, the billionaire proprietor of L Brands. Epstein renovated and redecorated the mansion in an unconventional style. Scores of mounted prosthetic eyeballs decorated the entrance. A sculpture depicting a woman in a wedding dress and grasping a rope was suspended in a central courtyard.

In the ground-level dining area, Epstein hosted a changing group of celebrities, academics, politicians and business leaders. The cuisine could be ordinary – occasionally nothing beyond a buffet of Chinese delivery, Allen's correspondence noted – but the occasions were extraordinary. Photographs reveal that attendees sat in leopard-print seats surrounding a large rectangular table, the The New York Times reported. Periodically, guests mentioned in interviews, a magician would perform. Occasionally, a chalkboard was brought out so an attendee could sketch a diagram or inscribe a mathematical equation. Epstein maintained a map of Israel drawn on a chalkboard with Barak's signature, according to a photograph examined by The New York Times.

Photographs display a sideboard filled with mounted snapshots showcasing Epstein's associations with some of the globe's most recognizable individuals. There was Epstein grinning beside Pope John Paul II, Mick Jagger, Elon Musk and Fidel Castro. Additionally featured were Larry Summers, former President Bill Clinton and Richard Branson. Adjacent was the photograph from 2000 displaying Epstein with Trump and the future first lady – excluding Maxwell.

Next to that was a mounted dollar bill autographed by Bill Gates, potentially as settlement of a wager. "I was incorrect!" the Microsoft co-founder inscribed across George Washington's portrait.

Ascending a grand stairway was Epstein's wood-paneled study, containing a massive desk. Photographs show a preserved tiger resting on a luxurious carpet. In the study, according to photographs examined by The Times, Epstein displayed a green first edition of "Lolita," the 1955 novel in which an intellectual develops a sexual fixation with a 12-year-old girl and repeatedly assaults her. Upon a wooden cabinet were additional mounted photographs, including one of Epstein with Saudi Arabia's crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman.

Another level higher, on the third floor, was Epstein's private quarters – a suite that contained his bedroom, the mansion's notorious massage room and a group of bathrooms.

Installed in a corner above his bed was a surveillance camera, photographs reveal. A second camera can be observed in an adjacent room. Multiple Epstein victims have stated the mansion was equipped with a system of concealed video cameras.

In the massage room were paintings of unclothed women, a large silver ball and chain, and shelves filled with lubricant, according to photographs reviewed by The Times.

No surveillance cameras were apparent in the photographs of the massage room. An earlier compilation of correspondence, presented to Epstein in a leather-bound volume for his 50th birthday in 2003, reflected a period of his life before his first arrest. That collection included contributions from Trump and Clinton, among dozens of others, The Wall Street Journal reported. Trump has denied a report in The Journal that he contributed a sexually suggestive note and drawing. He has filed a lawsuit against the news organization for defamation. Clinton's spokesman has said the former president was unaware of Epstein's crimes.

However, by 2016, as Epstein's reputation as a sexual predator became increasingly difficult to overlook, his social circle was contracting. Three years later, he would die in a Manhattan jail while awaiting prosecution on federal sex-trafficking charges.

The Times examined seven birthday messages given to Epstein in 2016. In addition to those from Zuckerman, Allen and Barak, there were letters from the linguist Noam Chomsky and his wife; Joichi Ito, an entrepreneur who years later would resign from M.I.T. and the board of The New York Times Company because of his ties to Epstein; and Lawrence M. Krauss, a prominent physicist. Martin Nowak, a Harvard biologist, contributed a science-themed poem.

Zuckerman, Allen, Ito, Dr. Nowak and Bannon did not respond to requests for comment from The New York Times. Barak declined to comment. Dr. Chomsky's wife responded on his behalf and declined to comment. Dr. Krauss said he didn't recall the letter but attended "several lunches with very interesting discussions" with scientists, authors and others at Epstein's home.

In their typed correspondence, Barak and his wife, Nili Priel, praised Epstein as "A COLLECTOR OF PEOPLE." The letter concluded, "May you enjoy long and healthy life and may all of us, your friends, enjoy your table for many more years to come."

The disclosure came as part of a broader briefing on the re-examination of the case against Epstein, who died in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, by FBI agents and prosecutors. Bondi made the revelation during a meeting that also included Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and covered various topics.

Bondi frequently meets with Trump to brief him on various matters, officials said. Both Bondi and Blanche previously served as lawyers for Trump before their current government roles.

The attorney general and deputy attorney general informed the president that his name, along with those of other high-profile figures, had surfaced in their re-examination of documents connected to the case that had not previously been made public.

The significance of the references to Trump remains unclear. However, the briefing highlights private West Wing discussions that are occurring as the president's team desperately attempts to move forward and quell the rebellion among Trump supporters who feel that he and some senior appointees misled them with campaign claims about making the files available.

 Trump's top two FBI appointees were among those who, before assuming their government roles, insisted that more remained to be uncovered in the files. Earlier this year, Bondi described the files as containing significant material that requires thorough review.

Trump has already appeared in documents related to the investigation that have been made public. He maintained a friendship with Epstein until what Trump has described as a falling-out in the early 2000s.

At the White House in February, Bondi distributed several binders containing the Epstein files, which included, among others, the phone numbers of some of the president's family members, including his daughter.

"As part of our routine briefing, we made the president aware of the findings," Bondi and Blanche wrote in a statement responding to questions about the briefing, which took place in May. "Nothing in the files warranted further investigation or prosecution," The New York Times reported.

The post Bondi told Trump his name found in Epstein files appeared first on www.israelhayom.com.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche revealed the initiative in a social media post, stating the department would reach out to Maxwell's legal counsel. "Justice demands courage. For the first time, the Department of Justice is reaching out to Ghislaine Maxwell to ask what do you know? At @AGPamBondi's direction, I've contacted her counsel. I intend to meet with her soon. No one is above the law – and no lead is off-limits," Blanche wrote on X, referring to Attorney General Pam Bondi's efforts to address the ongoing controversy over the Trump administration supposedly stalling the full disclosure of the details of the case, which some have suggested means the president was somehow linked improperly to the financier (no proof has come out on this despite their past relationship).

The Trump administration has encountered growing criticism regarding its approach to handling Epstein-related documents and files. Officials have faced questions about transparency and the extent of information that might be released to the public concerning the case.

The deputy attorney general emphasized the department's commitment to pursuing all potential leads in the case. In a statement shared by Attorney General Pam Bondi on social media platforms, Blanche indicated that federal authorities would welcome any information Maxwell might provide, CNN reported. "If Ghislane Maxwell has information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims, the FBI and the DOJ will hear what she has to say," the statement read.

Maxwell's defense attorney David Oscar Markus confirmed ongoing discussions between his client and government officials. "I can confirm that we are in discussions with the government and that Ghislaine will always testify truthfully. We are grateful to President Trump for his commitment to uncovering the truth in this case," Markus told CNN.

The convicted sex trafficker received a 20-year federal prison sentence for her role in a multi-year conspiracy with Epstein to groom and sexually abuse minors. Her participation in the scheme spanned years of criminal activity that targeted underage victims.

Blanche indicated that federal officials expect to conduct the meeting with Maxwell in the near future. The timing of this outreach coincides with broader Justice Department efforts to address lingering questions about the Epstein case and potential co-conspirators who remain unidentified.

The meeting initiative follows the Justice Department's recent request to a federal judge seeking to make public previously sealed grand jury testimony related to Epstein. These proceedings occurred behind closed doors as part of the original investigation into the financier's criminal activities, CNN reported.

Bondi had previously committed to releasing extensive documentation held by the Justice Department related to the Epstein investigation. However, the attorney general subsequently modified this position in a memorandum issued earlier this month, CNN reported. The memo stated that investigators found no evidence supporting the existence of an Epstein "client list" or substantiating claims that he was murdered.

In summer 1996, Farmer approached law enforcement authorities to complain about Epstein, following a sexual assault she suffered from him and his partner Ghislaine Maxwell. Farmer, who was then in her mid-twenties, also shared with authorities the abuse her younger sister Annie, then a teenager, suffered at Epstein's New Mexico ranch, when Maxwell touched her exposed chest. Farmer described the threats she faced from Epstein after the incident.

Farmer revealed that during her conversations with New York police and later with the FBI, she urged them to examine Epstein's circle extensively, including Donald Trump, two decades before he was elected president. In 2006, she was questioned again by the FBI about Epstein and repeated the same message.

Her account represents one of the clearest indications yet about how Trump may have appeared in the unpublished investigation files in the case.

In interviews last week, Farmer said she has no evidence of criminal activity by Epstein's associates, but she expressed concern about what she saw as his pattern of pursuing teenage girls and young women while forming friendships with prominent figures like Trump and former President Bill Clinton.

Farmer's efforts to draw law enforcement attention to Epstein and his associates indicate how investigation files might contain embarrassing or politically problematic material for the president, even if he was never directly involved and never investigated.

"She's not here for you"

The encounter with Trump, Farmer said, occurred in 1996 when she was preparing to work for Epstein. She told authorities how late one night, Epstein unexpectedly called her to his offices in a luxury Manhattan building, and she arrived wearing short running shorts.

Trump then arrived dressed in a business suit and began walking around near her, as she described in her report to authorities. Farmer said she remembers feeling frightened when Trump stared at her exposed legs. Then Epstein entered the room, and she recalled him telling Trump, "No, no. She's not here for you."

Both men left the room, and Farmer said she heard Trump comment that he thought she was 16 years old. After she met with Trump, Farmer said, she had no other concerning interactions with him and didn't see him behave inappropriately with girls or women.

The White House disputed Farmer's account Friday night and cited Trump's decision to end his friendship with Epstein. "The president was never in his office," Steven Cheung, the White House communications director, said, referring to the pedophile. "The fact is that the president kicked him out of his club for being a creep."

Previously, Farmer said she wondered how law enforcement authorities handled her complaints about Epstein in 1996 and 2006. Among other things, she said she wondered whether they had taken any action regarding her Trump-related concerns. She said she mentioned his name both times because of meetings that appeared close with Epstein and because of that disturbing encounter at the New York office.

Her mother said she remembers hearing about the Trump meeting around the time it occurred. Sister Annie also shared that she remembers Maria's story to the FBI about Epstein's meetings with influential people like Trump and Clinton.

Escaped and barricaded herself

Farmer, an artist, worked for Epstein in 1995 and 1996. Initially, to purchase art in his name, but later to supervise the entry and exit of girls, young women, and celebrities at the entrance to his Upper East Side home.

In 1996, she traveled to Epstein's estate in Ohio, at a compound developed by Leslie Wexner, then-CEO of Victoria's Secret. Epstein and Maxwell also came to the location.

Among other things, Farmer described being asked to massage Epstein's feet, after which he and Maxwell touched her violently until she escaped from the room and barricaded herself in another part of the building. Her artwork included nude figures, and she described how partially nude photos she had of her two younger sisters disappeared from her locked storage box.

Throughout subsequent years, Farmer faced criticism from individuals questioning her credibility. Notably, she wasn't summoned to testify during Maxwell's 2021 trial and conviction for conspiracy with Epstein involving sexual exploitation and abuse of girls.

The attorney explained that Epstein never established a "client list" as commonly believed, though the FBI conducted interviews with alleged victims who identified several "clients" by name. The Wall Street Journal op-ed claimed that these identities remain concealed due to court-imposed sealing orders, with Dershowitz stating he possesses knowledge of who these individuals are. The legal expert emphasized that none of the named parties include current government officials, while noting that the veracity of these accusations remains unconfirmed. Courts have similarly sealed negative information about some accusers to provide them protection, according to the The Wall Street Journal op-ed.

Regarding speculation about compromising video recordings from hidden cameras in Epstein's guest bedrooms, Dershowitz provided clarification about the actual surveillance evidence. The op-ed claimed that while videotapes do exist, they capture only public areas of Epstein's Palm Beach, Florida residence. The attorney explained that police installed a video camera after Epstein reported the theft of money and a licensed firearm from a drawer in his living room, with Dershowitz stating he has no knowledge of video cameras in guest bedrooms.

The relationship between Epstein and former President Donald Trump, documented in public records, concluded when Trump reportedly prohibited Epstein from Mar-a-Lago long before assuming the presidency. The Wall Street Journal reported that Dershowitz stated he has observed nothing suggesting improper or questionable conduct by Trump in connection with Epstein.

Evidence clearly indicates that Epstein died by suicide, though the circumstances suggest potential assistance from correctional facility personnel, the op-ed says.  The Wall Street Journal reported that Dershowitz believes this assistance appears probable based on evidence including allegedly malfunctioning cameras, the transfer of Epstein's cellmate, and the absence of guards during critical time periods.

Dershowitz categorically dismissed theories connecting Epstein to intelligence agencies, stating he harbors no doubt that the financier never worked for any such organization. The attorney argued if such a connection existed, Epstein would have disclosed it to his legal team, who would have utilized that information to secure more favorable treatment. The professor noted that Epstein remained dissatisfied with his plea agreement, which he described as a "sweetheart deal" that required serving 1½ years in local detention and registering as a sex offender. Sources in Israel confirmed to Dershowitz that Epstein maintained no connection to Israeli intelligence, with the attorney suggesting the false narrative recently promoted by Tucker Carlson likely originated from credible allegations that Robert Maxwell, father of Epstein's former associate Ghislaine Maxwell, worked with the Mossad.

Conspiracy theories generate significant interest among readers, viewers, and listeners while serving as ammunition for political attacks. The Epstein case has produced numerous such theories, with Dershowitz noting that stubborn facts or the absence of evidence often interfere with compelling narratives. The professor concluded that despite the public's appetite for sensational stories, the case reveals little beyond what has already been disclosed publicly.

Bondi stated that there are more than 250 alleged victims and that her office must ensure their identities remain protected.

"What you're going to see, hopefully tomorrow, is a lot of flight logs, a lot of names, a lot of information," Bondi said when asked about the nature of the data set to be released on Thursday. "What this man did, along with his co-defendant, was sickening."

Previously, Republican members of Congress pressured the Justice Department to release classified documents and records related to Jeffrey Epstein and the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

President Trump signed an executive order this month directing government agencies to develop plans for the release and dissemination of highly classified documents, including those concerning the assassinations of Senator Robert F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Representative Anna Paulina Luna, a Republican from Florida, is leading the House Oversight Committee's task force on declassification of federal secrets. After sending letters to the Justice Department on February 11 and February 19, she announced that she had finally received a positive response on the matter.
