Governor John de Jongh's Motion To Dismiss The Epstein Survivors Lawsuit (Part 2)

The Sarah Kellen Congressional Transcript (Part 1) (6/11/26)

Sarah Kellen told Congress that she was not a willing architect of Jeffrey Epstein’s operation but one of his victims, claiming Epstein groomed, abused, isolated, and controlled her for years. She described herself as trapped inside his world through sexual, psychological, and emotional coercion, and said Epstein continued to exert power over her even while he was incarcerated. That testimony matters because Kellen has long been one of the most controversial names in the Epstein case: she was not some distant acquaintance or occasional employee, but a close assistant whose name appeared in the non-prosecution agreement and whose alleged role has been described by survivors as central to the scheduling, travel, and logistics that made Epstein’s abuse machine function. The skeptical read is that Kellen’s testimony may explain parts of her relationship with Epstein, but it does not automatically erase the serious questions about what she did, what she knew, and how long she remained embedded in his operation. Being abused by Epstein and enabling Epstein’s access to other victims are not mutually exclusive possibilities, and that is the uncomfortable center of the issue. Her testimony shifts the frame from co-conspirator to coerced participant, but Congress and the public still have to weigh that against the survivor accounts, the documented logistics, the years of proximity, and the fact that Epstein’s criminal enterprise required trusted people to keep the appointments, movements, and access points running. In plain terms, Kellen may have been victimized by Epstein, but that does not settle the question of whether she also helped him victimize others. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: 2026-05-21 Sarah Kellen - Transcript.pdf - Google Drive [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nPDWYcqxugpod1-b98xuayS-RkUtrcyS/view?pli=1]

Bill Gates Tells Congress That Epstein Tried to Blackmail Him (6/11/26)

Bill Gates arrived on Capitol Hill for a closed-door, transcribed interview with the House Oversight Committee as lawmakers continued digging into Jeffrey Epstein’s network, the government’s handling of the case, and the powerful figures who remained in Epstein’s orbit after his 2008 conviction. Gates told reporters he was there to cooperate and, according to his prepared remarks and subsequent reporting, described his meetings with Epstein as a “grave error in judgment.” He maintained that he never witnessed or participated in Epstein’s criminal conduct, never visited Epstein’s island, and believed at the time that Epstein might help raise money for global health and philanthropic projects. Gates has not been accused of criminal wrongdoing, but his repeated contact with Epstein after Epstein was already a convicted sex offender has remained a major reputational problem. The most explosive part of the interview was Gates’ claim that Epstein tried to use knowledge of Gates’ marital infidelities as leverage to keep him close and pressure him into continued contact. Gates framed Epstein as manipulative and said he now regrets giving Epstein credibility by meeting with him at all, while lawmakers focused on why Epstein was able to keep attracting access to billionaires, institutions, and philanthropic circles long after his criminal history was public. The hearing placed Gates inside the broader congressional effort to map Epstein’s influence network, including who met with him, who benefited from his access, and how he used proximity to elite figures to rehabilitate himself. In plain terms, Gates tried to present himself as someone Epstein misled and tried to exploit, while Congress used the interview to examine how someone like Epstein kept buying legitimacy through powerful people. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Bill Gates arrives on Capitol Hill for closed door Jeffrey Epstein interview [https://nypost.com/2026/06/10/us-news/bill-gates-arrives-on-capitol-hill-for-closed-door-jeffrey-epstein-interview/]

Inside the White House Fallout Over the Epstein Files (Part 3) (6/11/26)

The Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files has become a political disaster because years of promises about transparency ran headfirst into the Justice Department’s refusal to back the most explosive public expectations. Senior White House officials, including Vice President JD Vance, reportedly gathered without Trump in the Situation Room to manage the fallout after the DOJ and FBI said there was no “client list,” no confirmed blackmail operation, and that Epstein’s death was a suicide. That answer did not calm anything down. It infuriated survivors, transparency advocates, Democrats, and a large part of Trump’s own base, many of whom believed the administration had promised to expose the people Epstein protected, served, or compromised. The larger problem is that Epstein remains a trust-destroying scandal because the public has never believed the government gave a full accounting of who enabled him, who benefited from him, and who was protected when the system closed ranks. The White House tried to contain the issue, but the response only deepened the perception that powerful names were still being shielded. With Congress continuing to demand answers, major figures like Bill Gates being pulled into closed-door questioning, and polling showing broad public skepticism, the Epstein files have become more than a legal matter. They are now a political grenade, exposing the gap between campaign promises, institutional self-protection, and the public’s belief that elite accountability is still mostly theater. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Inside Trump’s White House, the Epstein Files Caused a Freakout - The New York Times [https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/10/magazine/trump-epstein-files-white-house-vance-doj.html]
