“Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Epstein Files?"
OP: There are so many files. Of course there are going to be so many names that have nothing to do with his crimes. I hope you aren’t too stressed about it.
Really disgusting. It will be interesting to see what else gets unearthed from these files. Not that I love to see accomplished and intelligent individuals revealed for the creeps they are. It especially sucks when you admire someone and find out they are not that great. I suspect there will be a lot of that in the days to come.
It’s like the stories saying Joe Rogan is in the files. It would be a nice salacious headline if there was anything behind it. Epstein wanted someone who had been a guest on the show to arrange a meeting. No meeting ever happened which is clear in the emails. But Joe Rogan’s name is in the files because he was mentioned in emails.
Yeah, this is a big problem. One of the businessmen whose name was read aloud by Ro Khanna in congress was in the files because the Southern District of New York used his photo randomly in a lineup along with photos of actual suspects, and that photo (with his name) ended up in the files.
Not to be too dramatic, but it sounds like that could easily have been your name that was read aloud. And if not by a congressman, then maybe by one of the viral influencers who are “investigating” the files on stream.
Wait till you see the pictures of Chomsky and Steve Bannon partying it up at Epstein’s, arms over one another’s shoulders ![]()
You think that will stop Rogan from peddling conspiracy nonsense on his show?
HAHAHAHAHA just kidding of course it won’t.
Didn’t @Ann_Hedonia also work in high finance or something similar? I wonder if her name showed up as well?
I knew that Dopers would end up being ensnared in the Epstein files. ![]()
There’s a big difference between a random third-party mention and starring as an utter creep in the files.
Some spiritual dude, Deepak is.
Full disclosure: My name does not appear in the Epstein files.
… well, now you got me curious. And so far so good on searches about myself in the public release. Two people with partial name match in the search but obviously different when you pull the full reference.
But yeah, now we have to care about just being on the contacts list of anyone who may have had business with someone who may have had business with Epstein. SMH.
I would bet that there are people listed in there somewhere who were historical figures of some sort.
That might be a way to discredit people who do show up legitimately… “This list is BS; Ben Franklin is on it!”
Yeah, everyone knows that Ben Franklin preferred old women to young ones.
So that covering all above with a Basket, and regarding only what is below the Girdle, it is impossible of two Women to know an old from a young one. And as in the dark all Cats are grey, the Pleasure of corporal Enjoyment with an old Woman is at least equal, and frequently superior.
Oh, barf. I’ve always hated that guy.
Is there a link where you can search the files by name?
At least for publicly accessible redacted materials:
BTW it seems it works better if you refresh the search page before entering a new search item.
Well, nobody with my surname was involved. Good to know.
You can determine a level of involvement from a search query?
Well, I’ll be damned. I’m in there too. One of the documents is a 200-page list of third-party software used in MacOS, and since I wrote a tool that’s bundled in MacOS, it lists that tool and my name.
Why such a list of software is in the Epstein files, I don’t know.
Yep. One stupid con decided to ban anyone who was alleged to ever have had correspondence with Epstein.
Yep. I expect any minute now someone is going to come out with " The State Department is infested with pedophiles. I have here in my hand a list of 205—a list of names that were made known to the Secretary of State as being members of the Epstein files and who nevertheless are still working and shaping policy in the State Department."
Many see no difference.
Over 1000 with my-rather common- last name. None with my full name.
Chaff. A way to hide who really was involved.
Yup. The longer the list, the smaller trump’s part in it will seem.
And the usual RW enablers / cheerleaders will be launching specious smear campaigns against all and sundry to clog the media with that stuff. Not a serious inquiry into trump’s role in the whole sordid affair.
If the hit return is zero, apparently so.
Had I gotten a hit I’d have had to check out the context.
I have a lot of very wealthy relatives.
My last name is pretty popular in parts of Europe, so I was surprised to see it only appear once on the list, and not referring to a person at all, but a product named after a place.
I expect the Authorities at any moment.
Just remember that Frank Reynolds was only there for the snorkeling.
