  1. Boston.com | Epstein craved Harvard connections. Many there were eager to help. by New York Times Service

    AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

    Newly released Justice Department files reveal how deeply Harvard faculty aided Jeffrey Epstein—even after his 2009 conviction and the university’s ban on his donations—by arranging research fellowships, visiting him in jail, traveling on his planes, and facilitating large gifts to colleagues such as Stephen Kosslyn, Martin Nowak and Larry Summers. The documents show that professors not only continued personal and professional contact, but also used Harvard’s prestige to bolster Epstein’s reputation, including adding his name to university webpages and supporting his philanthropic front groups. A 2020 Harvard investigation missed many of these ties, prompting renewed scrutiny that has already forced Summers to resign and placed Nowak on leave, while critics argue the university has down‑played the extent of the scandal.

  3. Larry Summers has long been considered "brilliant" while he's a textbook case of failing upwards. Everything he touched he harmed & soiled: Harvard presidency, US Treasury, World Bank. The latest non-surprising developments reflect the category of people to whom #larrysummers belongs. ineteconomics.org/perspectives

  4. This man should have been arrested years ago. His harassment of women personally and professionally in his capacity as educator and educational administrator has reinforced the toxic misogyny in academia. Needs to go now! Why should he collect any more pay?

  5. #LarrySummers will resign from teaching at #Harvard during review of #Epstein ties, university says

    Summers, who has been on leave since November & whose name appeared hundreds of times in newly released #EpsteinFiles, will leave at the end of the school year, according to a statement from Harvard spokesperson Jason Newton.

  6. #LarrySummers resigns from #Harvard. www.thecrimson.com/article/2026... "Across dozens of [email] threads, Summers sought Epstein’s advice on personal matters, including his pursuit of a romantic relationship with a woman he described as a mentee." #Epstein

    Summers To Resign From Teachin...

  7. #HigherEd figures from #Duke, #Harvard , #UCLA & #Yale reveàled as chums amongst #EpsteinFiles in latest doc drop.

    #DOJ released a new batch of 3 million pages from #JeffreyEpstein case, revealing correspondence with prominent figures at top tier schools even after his 2008 conviction with name-drops including figures from #Kinsey Institute having lunch with Epstein and a former Israeli PM.

    Latest doc dump includes over a half dozen top #academics in trove, prompting some #Edu institutional embarrassment.

    Amongst those shown to have years of sporadic contacts are a prominent #Connecticut school's computer science professor David Gelernter, who was infamously injured after being targeted by #Unabomber Ted Kacynski, but later in life crafted correspondence casually chatting with the convicted sex offender regarding female students on campus he had working for him.

    A controversial Duke "behavioral economics" professor named David Ariely who wrote an advice column in #WSJ for a decade is mentioned 636x, although he had previously confirmed only two meetings with Epstein, despite documents that now show at least seven personal interactions.

    Others newly named include some top Harvard donors and academics along with those previously mentioned such as former #SocialSciences dean Stephen M. Kosslyn, "Evolution Center" director Martin Nowak and #LarrySummers.

    #Florida police first began investigating #Epstein in March 2005 after a 14-year-old girl reported being molested at his home not far from Mar-A-Lago. Eventuallly arrested after a probe in 2006, he pleaded guilty to lesser prostitution charges through a non-prosecution agreement arranged by future #Drumpf admin official Alex Acosta in June 2008. By mid 2019, under add'l media scrutiny, #Epstein himself was found dead in a detention cell in #Federal custody while awaiting trial on new sex #trafficking charges.

  8. A ce jour seules 89 photos parmi 100 000 saisies chez #Epstein ont été publiées. Le comité de la chambre en charge de les publier tentent d'expurger les plus choquantes. On voit que #Trump doit d'urgence obtenir un succès pour tenter de reléguer au second plan le scandale qui le concerne, Paix en #Ukraine ou guerre au #Venezuela en sont les enjeux.

  9. #EpsteinFiles: not only did Jeffrey #Epstein fund the entire bitcoin development team at #MIT Media Lab from 2015-????, he took a special interest in Madars Virza, co-founder of the "privacy coin" ZCash (#ZEC).

    #ZCash “fixes” the main issue with bitcoin, at least for people like Jeffrey Epstein. Zcash transactions are encrypted / private and therefore nothing about them is publicly visible in a block explorer¹ (and therefore any suspicious large transactions would not even be noticed).

    ZCash, (unlike #Monero / #XMR, its prime competitor in the “privacy coin” space), is not an open source project. It’s privatized secret money created by a corporation. That corporation (Electric Coin Co.) also just so happens to have been funded by DCG, the crypto VC fund Larry Summers sat on the board of for 7 years after being introduced to Brock Pierce by Jeffrey Epstein. ZCash is actually one of #DCG’s flagship investments 🤔

    Hard not to think that Epstein wasn’t meeting with #MadarsVirza to make a few “feature requests” that would make #ZCash more useful for people like Jeffrey #Epstein.

    (it’s also worth at least mentioning that all of the cryptoverse’s biggest cretins like the #Winklevoss twins, Naval, Emperor Shillbertine, etc. started pushing ZCash HARD a month or two ago as the “true” bitcoin, but that’s probably a subject for a separate post)

    ¹ though a lot of people think the transactions are visible to #ElectricCoinCo via a backdoor, which is v. different from Monero. i haven't done the work to have an opinion on whether that's true or not, but a lot of bros call ZCash some variant of "CIAcoin"

    #TheCryptocalypseChronicles: A Rather Alarming Epstein / Russia / Israel Crypto Timeline

    The recently released #EpsteinFiles make it crystal clear that #Epstein's involvement in #crypto was much deeper and long lasting than had been previously understood.

    Not only do we now know that Epstein funded bitcoin's development team at #MIT starting from 2015, we also now know that #Epstein introduced #Tether co-founder, #SteveBannon business partner, #EOS scammer, and man with an extremely sordid history of sex crimes against children #BrockPierce to former #Harvard president #LarrySummers. Summers would go on to join the board of #DigitalCurrencyGroup (#DCG), the most important crypto VC fund in the U.S.

    Beyond that there's

    1. Epstein's proposal to a #Russian #FSB operative that they should create a #BRICS stablecoin

    2. A bunch of sinister sounding emails between Epstein and"influential men" in #Qatar about "the e-currency"

    3. Bannon + Epstein's plot to undermine Europe with crypto money

    4. The integration of #BrockPierce and the #Netanyahu family

    5. Accusations from the former head of #Mossad's financial unit about Netanyahu's involvement in crypto

    6. The relationship between Chinese criminal #MilesGuo AKA #MilesKwok, Steve Bannon, and Epstein

    ...and so much more. Retoots appreciated.
