The mother had lost her job because she wasn't able to find adequate care for this autistic child. So she really needed some help with living expenses, paying some back bills. So I launched a GoFundMe to help support them during this crisis. And we raised about$10 ,000 within just a couple of months. I think that the surprising thing was by telling a clear story and just like really being very clear about what we needed. We had some really generous donations from people who were really moved by the situation that this family was struggling with.

3:00Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump is panicking as an additional release of three million Epstein-filed documents has been absolutely devastating for him and his regime. Even despite the cover-up efforts by Trump and his DOJ, it is still devastating. Let me tell you what's gone down, and I'm going to read for you some of the most devastating documents that have been released. So the Trump DOJ earlier today through Todd Blanche, Deputy Attorney General, said that they were going to release three million documents from the Epstein files. They said they collected six million documents from the Epstein files, but were only going to release about 50 % of it because they said that was the only group that was actually relevant.

3:42Ben Meiselas:Let's be clear. That's highly suspect, highly suspicious. We should not believe anything that they are saying, and we should demand all of the documents be produced. But from this 3 million documents that have been produced, there is very, very damaging stuff to Donald Trump and his cabinet and people like Howard Lutnick and Elon Musk, and even the new person Donald Trump's appointed as the chairman of the Federal Reserve, who's listed in these new documents and others will go through that. Also, you should note that these survivors are absolutely livid right now. Despite the Trump DOJ saying it took so long for us to release these 3 million documents so we could find the most relevant and responsive documents and protect the survivors and protect the victims.

4:25Ben Meiselas:Well, a lot of the documents that were released gave personal identifying information of the survivors and gave other information of the survivors and victims. And so the lawyer for these survivors and survivors themselves are absolutely livid. They're pissed that they're, and they're re-traumatized that their names have been outed again in ways that could be very harmful to them. And also you're hearing from these survivors that they are extremely not trusting anything that this Trump DOJ is doing right now. They believe that this is just more of the cover up by the Trump DOJ. Donald Trump's name is mentioned many times in the new documents that were released.

5:08Ben Meiselas:Let me make this point as well. There haven't been any photos or videos or audio that's been released, and there should be video, audio, photos that are released with, of course, appropriate redactions and appropriate protection of victim rights. So that doesn't even exist in this. And when we saw there was the 18 ,000 files produced by the Epstein estate several months ago, lots of photos there as well with Trump in those photos. Okay, let's go through some of these emails. that were produced in this batch. I've gone through all three million documents. And so that's what I've been doing all morning.

5:45Ben Meiselas:Let me show you what is in these documents. And Trump's name is mentioned many times. So here's an email from Jeffrey Epstein to a lady by the name of Kathy Rumler. Kathy Rumler was a lawyer at a large corporate law firm. She almost served as like an advisor to Epstein during this period of time. This is an email from March 30th, 2016 from Epstein to his advisor, Kathy Rumler. And here's what is stated. Epstein says, again, March 30th, 2016, Trump is likely to be asked questions soon about me. In an ideal world, what do you think he should and could say? That Epstein's advisor says the following.

6:26Ben Meiselas:I knew Epstein professionally and always had positive dealings with him. I don't know anything about his personal legal issues. other than what I have read in public reports and therefore don't have any comment. So Epstein and his advisor are working on statements to give to Donald Trump to cover up his relationship with Epstein. And then Epstein says, supposedly a girl said that Donald had sex with her at my house when she was underage. She said she has a witness in 1993. Pottinger story two weeks ago, said that Pottinger wanted to meet him. I emailed back, do not meet. You are not involved. Yesterday said someone sent me, Pottinger worked his way into my office to tell me that.

7:10Ben Meiselas:Very annoyed, I called and got his telling the above, that a girl in 1993 was saying that when she was underage, she said she was a witness. A girl said that Donald Trump had sex with her at my house when she was underage. Okay. That's in the documents, underage girl saying sex with Donald Trump. Epstein is mentioning that right here in a March of 2016 email. Then you have this email right here from December, 2017. Um, you have this email right here. Um, and it says the following, um, I'm okay. Still waiting for a New York trip, taking the family to buy to Dubai for the new year. I forgot to ask you, is there any new update about the Saudi project that I sent you?

7:57Ben Meiselas:And then he's having a conversation here with a business partner. So Epstein and a business partner and the business partner says, I'm at the door, but I will wait for my time. I don't want to come early to find Donald Trump at your house. Smiley face emoji. That's December 22nd, 2017. 17. There's this email between Jeffrey Epstein and someone by the name of Nicholas Ribas. This is from March 22nd, 2011. Nick, the girl in the new papers that has made all this trouble said she worked at Mar-a-Lago when she was 15 in 1998. Virtually positive that is a lie. It was when she was 17 in 2000. Her name is redacted.

8:39Ben Meiselas:Who would I go to verify? Don't know how Donald, referring to Donald Trump would respond. Then there's this email, March 22nd, 2011. It's from Jeffrey Epstein to Ghislaine Maxwell right here. Here's the email. I thought you said not to involve Donald. Again, this is from Ghislaine to Jeffrey Epstein rather. I thought you said not to involve Donald. Anyway, so now the die is cast. You now have to get her employment records. It will either show she started work in 1999 or 2000 as she was full-time there and I believe you cannot be a minor and work full-time anywhere. So she had to be at least 16 to be in full-time employment.

9:19Ben Meiselas:Perhaps start that way. That alone would kill her allegations that she was 15. As I said, you can't work full-time anywhere at that age. Either that or she gave a fake ID to Mar-a-Lago, which is also possible. However, let's see if you get the info and please confirm the labor law. So Ghislaine telling Jeffrey, now the die is cast. I thought you said we should hide Donald, avoid mentioning Donald. But now that he's involved, we need to find out about this girl who's saying she's 15 and that she was at Mar-a-Lago. We think that she was 17 years old. Let's take a look at this next one right here.

9:56Ben Meiselas:Subject alert. What does Jeffrey Epstein think of going to Mar-a-Lago after Christmas instead of his island? And it is sent on September 28th, 2012. And it is a message that says, Jeffrey Epstein, what do you think of going to Mar-a-Lago? It says, what does Jeffrey Epstein think of going to Mar-a-Lago after Christmas instead of his island? That's notable because Donald Trump and Epstein claim that they broke off their relationship sometime around 2004, 2007-ish, but they were obviously still and communication in 2012. And then there was this very devastating document that was produced in an interview with FBI agents.

10:39Ben Meiselas:A survivor told the agents that Ghislaine Maxwell presented her to Donald Trump, making clear she was available. And again, this isn't a tip. What I'm about to read for you is what's called an FBI 302, an interview with agents. So it says redacted, because that's the name of the survivor, never dated Donald Trump. Maxwell took, the name is redacted, to a party in New York. And it goes on to say, Maxwell seemed very excited that there would be a lot of great men for redacted to meet. Redacted felt that Maxwell presented her and gave a rundown of blank accolades similar to a CV. Maxwell presented Redacted to Trump, and they had a conversation for approximately 20 minutes.

11:34Ben Meiselas:Redacted was invited to Mar-a-Lago, where she was given a tour by Trump with Epstein and Maxwell present. Nothing happened between Redacted and Trump. By the things that Maxwell said, it was made clear that Redacted was available. Maxwell said things like, oh, I think he likes you. Aren't you lucky? This is great. There was an article that came out with Redacted and Trump. Redacted thought she was around 22 years old. Redacted was given suggestions on things to wear. Maxwell said things like, oh, he'll like that. He doesn't like that. It was set up very much like how Maxwell introduced Redacted to Epstein.

12:14Ben Meiselas:Maxwell introduced Redacted to, and there's more redactions. There was definitely a pretext that this guy was for so-and-so. Redacted and redacted are friends. They dated much later. Redacted described, again, more redactions as a good guy. Redacted told so-and-so that someone from the government had reached out to him. Maxwell introduced so-and-so to, there was definitely a pretext that this guy was for. Then it goes on to say, Maxwell introduced another man. And it goes on to describe additional things. and it said redacted has fear around Maxwell describes Maxwell as an extremely dangerous person felt the behavior she had witnessed that Maxwell is a sociopath and she's sociopathic and has fear if Maxwell is not convicted and that was an FBI report it's called the 302 then there was this document right here that was posted by the DOJ then the DOJ immediately removed it after the Midas Touch flagged what was in this document.

13:16Ben Meiselas:The new Epstein, so what we wrote on the Midas Touch, then the DOJ removed it, then they put it back up. Here's what we wrote. The new Epstein files production features numerous allegations made against Donald Trump and others. Fortunately, we saved the document because when we clicked back on it about, what, 30 minutes after we posted on it, you got this. Page not found. We are sorry. The page you're looking for cannot be found on the Department of Justice website. Then there was a massive pressure campaign against the DOJ because we posted it on our sub stack, MidasPlus.com. Go check out our sub stack, by the way.

13:51Ben Meiselas:So then once it was on our sub stack, the DOJ just posted it anyway because they figured Midas Touch already posted it on their sub stack. So what could they do? So this is what was in that document. Again, these are allegations made against Donald Trump, and these are not corroborated. They're just allegations. Let me be very clear. That's all they are. We don't know the extent of what's happened. Obviously, this DOJ can't be trusted with anything, even if they say that they reject the allegations. But there are things like this mentioned. Donald Trump, the president, had parties at Mar-a-Lago called Calendar Girls.

14:27Ben Meiselas:Jeffrey Epstein would bring the children and Trump would auction them. I mean, it goes on. He measured their vaginas and vulvas. I mean, it gets absolutely grotesque. If you want to read this document, you can go to MidasPlus.com. I have the whole document. I'll read you a little more from this. But if you want to read the full thing, go to MidasPlus.com. I know me reading this document can be very triggering. And it says, Blank reported that unidentified female friend who was forced to perform oral sex on President Trump approximately 35 years ago in New Jersey. The friend told Alexis that she was approximately 13 to 14 years old when this occurred.

15:05Ben Meiselas:and the friend allegedly bit President Trump while performing oral sex. The friend was allegedly hit in the face after she laughed about biting Trump. The friend said she was also abused by Epstein. And then there's lots of stuff like this in this document. Again, MidasPlus.com. If you want to read it, let me be very clear. These are not corroborated, but these are complaints that were made and are in the files. And remember what Todd Blanche said. He said that they had reviewed 6 million and they viewed these documents as the relevant ones to produce. So this was produced by the DOJ and then they immediately tried to remove it.

15:42Ben Meiselas:I think this is notable as well. Trump's new pick for chairman of the Federal Reserve made an appearance in today's Epstein file release. You see right there, Kevin Warsh. Kevin Warsh is now Trump's pick to be the new chairman of the Federal Reserve, but he's in this email. Kevin Warsh, Raymond McGuire, Ghislaine Maxwell, Brett Ratner, John Pagosi. So other familiar names appear right there. Let's take a look as well what this email is all about, where Kevin Warsh's name appears and Brett Ratner. Brett Ratner was the director of the Melania movie and Ghislaine. This was an email. December 21st, 2010.

16:27Ben Meiselas:Subject, St. Barthes. Here is the list I just sent Harvey. I'm not sure if that's Harvey Weinstein. How many people are with you tomorrow? Do you know blank? Steve Cohen next door to me just met him and Larry Gogo next to the Isle de France. Keep me posted. Please look this over. I think Roman's boat is bigger than Ron Perlman's. Here is a list of everyone I know that's coming down so far. Please advise where and when to screen. This is the St. Bart's Christmas party of 2010 off the Isle de France or the Hotel Tijuana. And then there are all these names listed like Roman Abramovich, Kevin Warsh, and all those names you see right there.

17:11Ben Meiselas:As I mentioned at the outset, Brett Ratner, Ghislaine Maxwell, and others. As I mentioned at the outset, the lawyer for the survivors is saying that the DOJ violated the trust of victims with insufficient redactions on what was already produced. This is a statement from the lawyer of the survivors, Bradley Edwards. Bradley Edwards says the following, the department has been in possession of a comprehensive list of victims of Jeffrey Epstein for months. In that time, they have spoken directly with several terrified women who they promised to protect through a fulsome redaction process. Their complete and utter failure to do so would lead any reasonable person to believe that these violations are no mistake.

17:55Ben Meiselas:There are not words to express our disappointment, he added. Essentially, these survivors are saying this was done maliciously by the Trump regime in order to attack and defame and harm and re-traumatize the survivors. So to be clear, the Trump regime has withheld 3 million of the 6 million documents. From the 3 million documents, there have been some pretty devastating documents for Donald Trump, for Howard Lutnick, which I'll talk about in a moment, for Elon Musk, which I'll talk about also some really bad documents about Bill Gates that I'll share in a moment as well, and others that were in this production.

18:33Ben Meiselas:But what was also produced were the names of survivors and victims in a way that re-traumatized them and that those redactions were not made appropriately right here. Epstein survivor Haley Robson just went on CNN after Todd Blanche held a news conference. And Haley Robson says, you're not going to gaslight me into thinking that this administration has somehow prioritized survivors. And Haley Robson does not believe that this is the full, and the survivors don't believe that this is the full Epstein files that are being produced. As I mentioned at the outset, it's missing photos, it's missing video, it's missing audio.

19:14Ben Meiselas:I think it's missing internal memos, which seem to have been withheld. Other witness reports seem to be withheld. And from what was actually produced, They didn't redact the victims' names appropriately to re-traumatize the victims right here.

21:36Ben Meiselas:Let's take a look right here where Elon Musk's name is mentioned, as I said before. This is an email from December 25th, 2013, and it says, just a reminder, Elon Musk was asking about coming to your island on January 2nd. It's from Epstein's assistant, Leslie Groff to Epstein. And here are emails from Elon to Jeffrey Epstein and Leslie Groff. Elon Musk is talking about, oh, actually I could fly back early on. The third will be in St. Bart's. When should we head to your island on the second? So they're all coordinating going to Epstein's Island. And you see right there, Elon Musk doing it also.

22:15Ben Meiselas:As Kyle Cheney writes, here's Epstein engaging in some really disgusting text messages with a powerful Slavic leader while discussing a relations with Russians and other geopolitical endeavors. They're talking about little girls right here. And it's a guy named Miro Lachik saying, I don't have a girl next to me right now. And then Epstein responds, as you are a diplomat that says she'll be back in a minute, or she's across the room, or it's a woman and not a girl, or she just left, or there are two. I'm learning your language. And then Miro goes, no, I really don't have a girl next to me right now.

22:55Ben Meiselas:Too many eyes are watching me. I mean, how disgusting is that. Too many eyes are watching. And then Epstein goes, it's okay. I have two. And then Miro says, not fair to which Epstein responds, but I'm not going to be president. Very funny. Very funny. You want me to be president? Here's the email right here where Epstein claimed that Bill Gates caught an STD from Russian girls, then discussed secretly medicating Melinda to cover it. I mean, this is some horrific stuff right here. Epstein sends an email to himself, like a note to file, like a memo of what he wants to say to Bill Gates. This is July 18th, 2013.

23:38Ben Meiselas:And then it says, to add insult to the injury, you then subsequently with tears in your eyes implored me to please delete the emails regarding your STD. You requested I provide you antibiotics that you can surreptitiously give to Melinda and the description of your penis. You also made it clear to me that I am not to refer to blank. That is another topic that must remain between the two of us in return for all of these requests, which I would have done without a second thought. Then he goes on to basically say that he was in a business relationship with Bill and he thinks that that he's now being treated unfairly by Bill Gates right there is basically the email just reading you all the things that we're seeing in this file right now.

24:19Ben Meiselas:Then you have this email as well from Jeffrey Epstein. It says, reminder Elon Musk Christmas, New York, New Year's Eve, more about Elon Musk going to the island. Also, there were tons of emails and text messages between Steve Bannon and Epstein here as well, where they were mocking Donald Trump and talking about Donald Trump and lots of emails there. I want to share this with you as well. The new files released also appear to show that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick discussing visiting the Epstein Island in 2012 when Lutnick previously claimed that he cut off ties around 2005 with Epstein after being revolted by him.

25:02Ben Meiselas:Remember that interview we shared with you five or six months ago where Lutnick gave an interview with the New York Post and he was like, yeah, Epstein was Lutnick's neighbor like 20, 30 years ago. And Lutnick was like, yeah, he was gross. I showed up and he showed me a massage table and I never talked to him again. Well, it seems that they were talking quite frequently right here. Here is an email from Howard Lutnick to Jeffrey Epstein's assistant, Leslie Groff. And here's what they're talking about. Okay, lunch on Sunday. See you then. And then Leslie Groff to Howard Lutnick. Hi, Matthew and Candace.

25:38Ben Meiselas:Might you be able to give so-and-so a few more details regarding lunch this Sunday? Do you know if it will just be Howard and his wife? Any kids coming along? Will they arrive at Jeffrey Epstein's Island via their boat? And around what time is good for them? If you could pass along when you know that would be great. So-and-so are copied here. This is December 12th, sorry, December 21st, 2012. So when we have video of Howard Lutnick saying, oh, I never talked to Epstein after I visited his house that one time, they were talking about going to the island together. And we have that email right now for you all to see.

26:18Ben Meiselas:Also, we'll share this with you right here. This is from David Ratner to Jeffrey Epstein regarding Howard Lutnick. This is November 14th, 2017. Hi, Jeffrey. Many thanks for your incredible donation in honor of Howard Lutnick. Would you like to take and add and offer your own words of congratulations in our commemorative journal. Are you able to join us at the event itself on December 11th? And would you like to take a table inclusive of your generosity? Thank you. And Epstein was giving a$50 ,000 donation for an event that Howard Lutnick was being honored at. And also Howard Lutnick invited Jeffrey Epstein to lots of different events.
