Full transcript with timestamps

I've reviewed the Epstein files that were produced by Donald Trump's Department of Justice last Friday multiple times. I want to utilize this video to discuss with you all of the references from those Epstein files regarding Vladimir Putin, Russia, Russian oligarchs, and the connections that those references have with the first Trump administration and the current Trump regime. I do not want to be conspiratorial. I just want to go over with you what's contained in the emails, the text messages, and the reports, and you can decide for yourself. As a reminder, last Friday, over 3 million documents from the Epstein files were produced by Donald Trump's Department of Justice. But that was only a partial production. There are at least three million documents that have not been produced by Donald Trump's Department of Justice and that may equate to 25 million to 50 million pages within those documents that have not

been produced. And my belief based on my experience as a litigator in the past is that those documents are far more devastating than what has been produced. But there have been bombshells in what has been produced. And as it relates to Jeffrey Epstein's connections with Vladimir Putin, Epstein is referenced as Vladimir Putin's money manager in FBI reports from confidential informants. There are emails between Jeffrey Epstein and world leaders like the former prime minister of Norway, the former prime minister of Israel, and other world leaders referencing meetings between Epstein and Putin. There are numerous numerous references to Epstein meeting with other Russian oligarchs. And I just want to go through with you what is stated in these emails and you can judge for yourself. The very first reference that I've seen in the Epstein files regarding Epstein and Putin is this email right here from November 8th,

2010. It's an email from Jeffrey Epstein to another email account that says, "Do I need to get a visa? I have a friend of Putin's. Should I ask him?" And then there is this reference right here, May 21st, 2013 from Jeffrey Epstein to Ahud Barack. Ahoud Barack, the former prime minister of Israel, who was a former defense minister of Israel, who was a top business leader in Israel connected to the defense industry there. And here's what Jeffrey Epstein said on May 21st, 2013. Epstein writes, "Putin asked that I meet with him in St. Petersburg the same time as his economic conference. I told him no. If he wants to meet, he will need to set aside real time and privacy. Let's see what happens. Now, there are numerous photos of Epstein in Russia wearing Russia paraphernalia, him and Gileain Maxwell wearing Russian gear together. We see those in the files. But then you had this email right here, September 11th, 2011. And this is

from an unidentified account to Jeffrey Epstein. It's referencing someone named Igor. And Igor who has close connections with Putin. And here's what this person said to Jeffrey Epstein. Spoke with Igor. He said last time you were in Palm Beach, you told him you had an appointment with Putin on September 16th and that he could go ahead and book his ticket to Russia to arrive a few days before you. He also looked into security in Sochi for you. He said regardless, he will still need to go to Russia tomorrow to sort out his Russian passport, which expires the end of September. So, he will still fly back to New York on the 19th. he will be happy to go back to Russia with you on September 26th if you go. And then the Epstein files that were released contain this message from Epstein to an individual whose name is redacted. The subject is he was passed away. And as Dominic Trippy explains, newly released Epstein documents reveal

communications concerning the suspicious death of alleged intelligenced asset Robert Maxwell. That's Gileain Maxwell's father, who Epstein stated was killed for threatening the MSAD. And Maxwell was a uh business person in the United Kingdom who was involved in all of this fraud. and he allegedly uh died when he was on his yacht that was named the Guilain when he was urinating is the story off the ledge of the boat and then he fell over and he drowned. Okay, here is what Epstein says went down. This is in an email March 15, 2018. He was passed away. Robert Maxwell threatened MSAD. And of course, the MSAD is Israel's intelligence agency. And here's what uh Epstein says happened. He said, "H told them that unless they gave him400 million pounds to save his crumbling empire, he would expose all he had done for them, the MSAD. In that time, he had free access to Margaret Thatcher's Downing Street, Ronald

Reagan's White House, to the Kremlin, and to the corridors of power throughout Europe. Maxwell passed on all the secrets he learned to MSAD and Tel Aviv. In turn, they tolerated his excesses, vanities, and insatiable appetite for luxurious lifestyle and women. He told his controllers who they should target and how they should do it. He appointed himself as Israel's unofficial ambassador to the Soviet block and that's what Epstein's knowledge was of Gileain's father and the connections with the Soviet Union there as well.

Then there is this report from the FBI where an FBI informant called Epstein the manager of Putin's wealth. Here's what the FBI report says. On November 27th, 2017, special agent, this is redacted, and special agent met with a confidential human source with whom the FBI has recently established a relationship. The CHS reported the following. Jeffrey Epstein had a compound in New Mexico where he lured and recorded underage women. He also had a private island. Epstein was President Vladimir Putin's wealth manager and provided the same service for Zimbabwe and President Robert Mugabi. Epstein had some connection to then it goes on to say the MIT lab described there as a confidential source of the FBI as being Putin's money manager. On March 18th, 2014, the day that Vladimir Putin announced Russia's annexation of Crimea, Jeffrey Epstein emailed the French banker Arian de Rothschild to say Ukraine upheaval should provide many

opportunities, many. And as you can see, he was described as Putin's money manager. He was discussing meeting with Putin in 2011. He was uh then talking about there will be many opportunities as a result of the annexation of Crimea. But let's keep on reading right here. There was then a meeting on June 24th, 2018 between Epstein. There's an email right here with other very key people describing a meeting. And the emails between Jeffrey Epstein and Jaglin Thorban. Now who is Jaglin Thorban or Thorban Jaglin is the former Norwegian prime minister. He was also the secretary general of the council of Europe from 2009 to 2019. He's also the foreign or was the foreign affairs minister from Norway as well. So someone with a pretty big portfolio and these were the types of people that Epstein was speaking with. Former prime ministers, former world leaders, world leaders at the time. And here's what it

says. Epstein says,"I think you might suggest to Putin that Lavrov can get insight talking with me. Vitali Charin used to but he died. Now what is Epstein talking about here?" So he's speaking with the former prime minister Norway of who meets with Putin and he's suggesting that um Putin and that Lavrov can come and talk with me. Lavrov, as you probably know, is Putin's top adviser. He's the foreign minister of Russia. Um, he was the guy who wore the USSR shirt when he met with Donald Trump in August, and he was invited by Trump into the White House right away.

The first state visit, people forget this, to the first Trump administration, White House back in 2017 was Sergey Lavrov and Sergey Kislak. And remember, Donald Trump gave them classified information that was uncovered and Trump's like, "Well, when you're the president, you get to give people classified information." And then uh you have Thorban Jarlin says, "I'll meet Lavrov's assistant on Monday. I'll suggest this. Thank you for a lovely evening. I'll communicate to UN highlevel week." Turkin was great. He understood Trump after our conversation.

It's not complex. He must be seen to get something. It's that simple. You know what's easier than fixing a problem? Not having the problem in the first place. Your liver is one of those organs that you don't think about until you have to. Supporting a daily is one of those small things that can make a huge difference in how you feel overall. And that's where dose comes in. Dose for your liver is a clinically backed liver health supplement. This isn't just another capsule or powder. Dose is a liquid supplement. It's taken in a daily 2 oz shot and it tastes like freshsqueezed orange juice. Here's why it matters. Your liver is your body's filter. It processes everything you consume and handles over 500 plus daily functions. Energy production, digestion, fat metabolism, vitamin storage. When your liver is overworked, you feel it.

Dose helps cleanse the liver of unwanted stressors that may be slowing your liver down. And it promotes daily liver function so that your liver can do its job. Zero sugar, zero junk, zero calories. And when you take dose daily, you're going to reduce sluggishness, get rid of those midday crashes, support your metabolism, and even aid your daily digestion. Plus, this is the real deal.

Now Vitali Chirkin was somebody who died of a mysterious heart attack in New York in 2017 and many people believe that he was uh poisoned

and he was killed that way. So that's part of the connections. And there was a time where lots of people were dying by Russian diplomats with mysterious heart attacks who it seemed that Putin was poisoning them. You also have emails of Epstein saying that he wants to help Putin reinvent the financial system. Again, this is a email from Thorbin Jaggland or an email to Thorbin Jagglin from Jeffrey Epstein dated May 14th, 2013. Okay. You can explain that he had investors to Sochi last year and this year again it is planned for St.

Petersburg on June 20th. It does not work. It's not the right structure or big enough ideas. He is in a unique position to do something grand like Sputnik did for the space race. You can tell him that you and I are close and that I advise Gates. This is confidential. I would be happy to meet him but for a minimum of 2 to three hours, not shorter. Then there were meetings on October 7th, 2016. Uh that took place right over here. Epstein's assistant puts his girlfriend Kariana Shulak in charge of an important lunch between Epstein, Peter Teal, and Vitali Churkin, the former Russian ambassador and close confidant to Putin, who would die mysteriously in New York a year later. Theel had recently bucked all of Silicon Valley by endorsing Trump at the RNC in a headline speech. One day later, Epstein emails Theel a link to John Podesta's hacked emails on Wikileaks.

Podesta was Clinton's top adviser. And then there appears to be an email that led to the Cherk and Teal Epstein lunch being scheduled, which isn't as relevant as the way Epstein pitches meeting Churkin to Teal. Russian ambassador most involved. He and Sergey Lavrov control. What was that meeting about? What happened there? But we know that shortly thereafter, Russia hacks the DNC. The emails go on Wikileaks. Donald Trump previously called on those emails to be released. That's what we know happens. Then you have Epstein to Peter Teal on June 26, 2016 saying Brexit just the beginning again. Brexit in the UK pulled the UK out of the European Union saying just the beginning right there. And that was June 26, 2016. That was actually before the election uh of Donald Trump um in the first administration. Um, there's other references to Putin wanting to meet Epstein in 2013. Epstein's writing to Ahud Barack. Putin asked that I meet

with him in St. Petersburg, the same time as his economic conference. I told him no. If he wants to meet, we talked about that one before. So, here was a correspondent of Epstein's advising him in 2014 to read up on Alexander Dugan, Putin's adviser, suggesting that it might be interesting and perhaps quite useful. So, it's from Epstein to somebody and here's what it says to this is what someone wrote to him. I just came back to the island. I had such an amazing day. Crazy skydiving, scuba diving, and skyide with the girls. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Wish you were here and this great day could be shared with you. How was your meeting? Are you okay there? Lots of hugs. P.S. I researched some movies we can watch when you are back. Have you ever heard of Alexander Dugan, one of Putin's adviserss? If not, reading about him and his views might be interesting and perhaps quite useful. As Peter Jukes

writes, Bannon wasn't just being advised and enabled by Epstein. He was also working, it appears, as a strategic adviser either formally or informally uh for Ahood Barack, who had direct meetings with Putin. So, here's what it's saying right here. Uh and these messages uh let's just go and take a look at him. We are set for gnome on Saturday. Have you told him that we are preparing for nope? He would be on board. Correct. Or should I ask? Easy for me. Ask and yes I could. Of course. I'm dealing with Ahood in Israel. In Israel making me crazy. Ahood. Massive.

Can we announce I'm his strategic adviser. This will be a long campaign. Elections in September 17th. Lots of talk about it. This is a brilliant move. Then you have May 15, 2013. Epstein's Google calendar says prepare Putin paper at the time when he was said he was meeting with Putin. There's this email from Epstein to Joyto, a a rich Japanese business person, Reed Hoffman, is CCed. It says, "Hey, Jeffrey, I wasn't able to convince Reed to change his schedule to go meet Putin with you." This email is July 20th of 2014. Signed, joy. Another message from Thorbin Jagglin right here saying, "Been busy the whole day. Just finished meeting with President Abbas to Putin in December. Discuss further details with Lavrov tomorrow.

Unfortunately, I'm busy tonight." And and uh Epstein wrote to him before that. When are you going to see Putin? Are you free tonight for an hour or so around 8 to see Tom Pritsker? Then there are messages between Sultan bin Solium and Jeffrey Epstein with the subject being Putin and Sultan bin Salam is one of the richest people in the United Arab Emirates who had close connections with Putin. And again, these are high like these aren't just random musings of Epstein bragging to like random people about Putin. He's speaking with world leaders like the richest person in the UAE, you know, the former prime minister of Israel, the former prime minister of Norway. That's who he's talking about having these meetings about. They were also uh discussing these potential meetings with Putin, but then Russia um uh had the terrorist attack on the airplane and uh the world was outraged and uh Epstein is saying that it's not a

good idea to meet with Putin right now because of the plane crash uh that took place right there. I mean, you go through more of these messages right over here. January 13, 2019 from Nicholas Rybus to Jeffrey Epstein. It's Russia and money Putin is using. Here's another message right here. Um, this is January 19th, 2014 from Thorben Jaglin to Epstein. Hi Jeffrey, I'm in Davos next week. Why don't you come? Ter is also coming. I'm going to Sochi and meet with Putin. We should start planning Easter. are you still prepared to receive us? And then Epstein goes, you can explain to Putin that there should be a sophisticated Russian version of Bitcoin. It would be the most advanced financial instrument available on a global basis. By the way, they're talking about this in Bitcoin in 2014, I might add. You have Jeffrey Epstein asking in October of 2010, did you have Putin on your boat? Epstein to Thorbin

Jaglin. I still would like to meet Putin and talk economy. I'd really appreciate your assistance. July 30th of 2015. Um October 27 October 17, 2017. Talk to Putin read digital currencies. The future um June 19th, 2018, June 17, 2018 from Thorbin Jagglin to Epstein. Hi Jeffrey Turge invited me to come to you in Paris. Can you confirm it? It's the same procedure as last time that I can stay with you. Promise to make nice or ruin you. Coming directly from Moscow, meeting with Putin, Lavrov and Medvidev. Yes, of course. Steve canled a trip to Europe. I mean, they're talking about Putin meetings at the highest level of at the highest level right here. Um, let's let's go look at a few more, shall we? Um, you have uh Peter Mandlesson who was the former UK ambassador to the United States. He's since been fired because he's all over the Epstein files.

He and Epstein are saying the following. Um, this is from Epstein to Lord Peter Mandlesson. Can we put together for you the equivalent of a Putin Medvidev deal? Choose someone who will be seen by your standin, run as a team, and the voters would be voting for you. Um uh there's also messages about um interfering with other countries elections like this that Epstein's writing about Bolsin Arrow giving Steve a big boost. I love to meet Lavrov with you. I love Ravrov. Remind Steve about the invitation to come to Slovakia and meet FICO and I'm reminding about some of you plus Montenegro. Both he and I will come to Europe for November elections. And what they're talking about during this time period in 2018, Bolsinaro, who is the eventual insurrectionist, but he's the right-wing kind of MAGA guy in Brazil, putting Bolsinaro in power. They're talking about the prime minister of Slovakia.

And we know through the messages that the prime minister of Slovakia's foreign top foreign ministers were in touch with Epstein all of the time. And again, they're talking about manipulating elections. They're talking about highlevel meetings with Putin all at the same time. Uh this is August 29th, 2016. Again, this is all before the November 2016 election. I need to attend a meeting with Putin in Vladivosto Epstein to Sultan bin Saliam right there. Um and so you have all this activity uh taking place, you know, at the same time. I I could keep going, but I but I think you get the point. So then Trump comes into office, the first administration. The first people who show up at the White House are Lavrav and Kislak.

And so Donald Trump's out there say, "Oh Russia Russia Russia Russia Russia, Russia, hoax." And then, of course, while all of these messages are happening right here, you have Epstein uh involved in all of these communications with Steve Bannon, with Elon Musk, with others who are now in the in the Trump administration. He has intimate familiarity, Epstein, with what's happening in the Trump administration. And so, I'll let you form your own opinions about what went down leading up to the 2016 election, what happened thereafter, Epstein's knowledge of what Putin may have known about the 2016 elections. But I I mean, it's pretty clear.

I'm just sticking with the emails and you form your own opinions. Okay? Hit subscribe. Let's get to 6 million subscribers and thanks for watching. New Midas merch. Head to store.midestouch.com today and get yourself the best prodemocracy gear and show your support. That's store.midestouch.com.
