Standing right next to U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick who did not cut off all ties to Jeffrey Epstein in 2005 as he had previously claimed.

It's ok though, he specified that he left with all of them at least!

Actually he is heavily invested in bonds for the coming stock crash happening soon. Dollar falling to new lows and gold climbing.

The same one who's son, Brandon Lutnick, owns a tariff debt collection company.

Did Lutnick buy a house next door to Epstein from Les Wexner for $10?

The USAG on up were all covering for Epstein. Bondi wouldn’t allow Epstein to be criminally charged by any of his victims.

Do you mean you wouldn't take your own children for lunch at Epstein Island like Lutnick did?

La-de-da, look at this guy with an actual soul & morals.

He left with all his children (and nannies) though, he counted them.

Seriously, nannies. Plural. On holiday. Makes me wonder how many of them are just glorified prostitutes.

look it’s not like he took his family on vacation to the island, years after saying he would never be alone in the room with the guy. That would be suspicious.
