Sophie from Southwark, London – Endorsement of previous tour:
“The tour was both enjoyable and fascinating, with Matthew pointing out both well-known and not-so-well-known crimes. I’ve done a few walking tours here and there and this one was the best – Matthew really knows the history and the who’s who of the area. I highly recommend the tour for both information and general entertainment value.”

As man-pestering Mark Menzies, the MP they have supported since 2008, is exposed for yet more sordid sexual shenanigans, the Fylde Conservative Association yet again prove themselves a bunch of nutty nincompoops by sharing tweets about “vile degenerates” making “sexually explicit” comments
The Fylde Conservative Association clearly didn’t give two hoots when the MP they have repeatedly supported since his selection as a candidate in 2008, Mark Menzies, got accused of shady sexual shenanigans with a 19-year-old Brazilian male hooker named Rogerio Santos in 2014.
At that time, when Santos alleged pugnacious politician Menzies asked him to “buy ‘the poor man’s cocaine’ methedrone” and “have sex with him,” then Councillor Brenda Ackers brazenly barracked: “He has the total support of myself and two other members of the management team, they both support Mark also. [Members will be] very upset, both on Mark’s behalf and the fact that we like things to run smoothly in Fylde.”
This very same gaggle of gaga grannies that Ackers headed also didn’t give two hoots when this Scottish born Roman Catholic faced a police investigation for allegedly getting a dog pissed-off-its-skull in 2015. Equally, they didn’t give two hoots that this menace-to-men also faced further police questioning for “brawling” with a friend in 2015.
Later that year, the very same membership of the Fylde Conservative Association – when Menzies was subsequently proven “just” to have stood on and taken pictures whilst yet another of his so-called “friends” getting the aforementioned pooch pissed to the point of “poisoned” and “intoxicated” – clearly chose to show not an ounce of moral backbone. They again selected this raging rotten-to-his-core ratbag in 2017 and 2019.
Now, as mucky Menzies faces allegations that he misused party funds to “pay some bad people” in yet another sexual scandal involving multiple men, the Fylde Conservative Association have yet again swept the issue-in-hand under the carpet. On Tuesday, on their Twitter feed, this bunch of brazen buffoons reposted a tweet by Rishi Sunak.
It read: “This government is cracking down on the vile degenerates who make sexually explicit ‘deepfakes.’ We’re introducing a new law to ban the creation of these distressing and abusing images… Making a sexually explicit ‘deepfake’ image without consent is to become a new offence, with those convicted facing a criminal record and an unlimited fine.”
According to The Guardian: “The source said Menzies had gone to the man’s flat, before going with another man to a second address, where he continued drinking. People at the address falsely claimed he had been sick and demanded £5,000 for cleaning up and other expenses, according to this account.”
“The source close to Menzies told The Times he paid the money because he was afraid of what would happen if he refused, but had insufficient funds in his own savings. They claimed he offered to repay the sum, but that local Tories who controlled the campaign funds said he did not need to.”
Whatever next for the Fylde Conservative Association? A party fundraiser for ‘Not-So-Dishy-Rishi’ down the local male brothel in Lytham St Annes?
The Fylde Conservative Association (FCA) showed no sense of shame for their support since 2008 of Mark Menzies – a mouse not a man capable of waking old ladies at 3.15am to demand help in paying off “bad people” he’d supposedly hooked up with via gay dating websites. Instead, on the very day Menzies was exposed by ‘The Times’ – and after they clearly would have been approached for comment – they opted to retweet a missive about Rishi Sunak’s government “cracking down on the vile degenerates who make sexually explicit ‘deepfakes’” and which mentioned a “new law to ban the creation of these distressing and offensive images.” Perhaps, the concept of those in glass houses and stones had passed the gaga grannies and grandpas of Fylde that form the FCA by, but maybe they should have dealt with their own local degenerate, Mark Menzies, at an earlier date given his previous form with Brazilian rent boys, photographing friends poisoning dogs and getting them drunk and “brawling” with supposed friends.Forced to resign the Conservative whip on 17th April 2024, Mark Menzies has previous form having been the subject of front page about his activities with young men on several occasions. One is left asking: “What on earth was it about this scandal prone scrounger that made the Fylde Conservative Association to continue to select him as their parliamentary candidate four times from 2008 onwards? Could they really not find someone with more decency and dignity than this degenerate deadbeat?”Mucky menace and former Marks & Spencer employee Menzies tweeted on the 12th April about “concerns” about St Annes beach. He failed to address the fact there have bene far more significant “concerns” about his personal behaviour for months. In an “exclusive” in which she “broke her silence” on Thursday 18th April 2024, the ‘Mirror’ reported that Katie Fieldhouse, 78, a former Lady of Mayoress of Fylde, said she received a call from Menzies at 3.15am on 1st December 2023, “in which he allegedly asked for £5,000 as he was locked in a flat with some ‘bad people’ … and branded his behaviour unacceptable.” Ms Fieldhouse claimed she “refused and called his office manager who later stumped up the sum, which had risen to £6,500. She was later reimbursed from a campaign fund paid for by donors, the paper reported… Ms Fieldhouse told the ‘Mirror’ that she later contacted the Tory party, in January to express her ‘concerns’ about Mr Menzies. ‘I spoke to the chief whip on the 3rd of January and told him my concerns’ she said. ‘All the things that had happened accumulated in my head. I came to the conclusion that something had to be done about it because I have a great fondness for my constituency. Ms Fieldhouse would not comment when asked if she thought the MP should resign. But she said: ‘I put my faith in the Conservative Party to deal with Mr Menzies.’ She continued: ‘I am a devout Conservative, all my life, and also a devout Christian, and I cannot accept his behaviour. It is very upsetting.’ Ms Fieldhouse said she was approached by ‘The Times’ after speaking to the chief whip. And she added: ‘I have read the article in ‘The Times.’ Everything in it is true.’” Ms Fieldhouse had previously not been named in ‘The Times’ article by senior investigations reporter Billy Kenber whilst Menzies responded: “I strongly dispute the allegations put to me. I have fully complied with all the rules for declarations. As there is an investigation ongoing I will not be commenting further.”Brenda Ackers – who defended her chum Mark Menzies in 2015 by stating: “He has the total support of myself and two other members of the management team, they both support Mark also. [Members will be] very upset, both on Mark’s behalf and the fact that we like things to run smoothly in Fylde” – herself has form. In September 2013, according to Blackpool rag ‘The Gazette,’ Ms Ackers was “reprimanded by the mayor” for refusing to apologise for making “disrespectful remarks.” Speaking to the paper, she raged: “I don’t know why the mayor interrupted me because nothing that I said was in any way objectionable.” In turn “rebuking her,” another councillor stated: “When the mayor stands, the councillor sits down” as she was “greeted with heckles of ‘sit down, shut up.”The Twitter handle of the repeatedly disgraced MP’s former constituency association has not even updated to reflect the fact that he is no longer a Conservative Member of Parliament.
As the Epstein-Maxwell saga continues to unravel, Matthew Steeples looks at the forthcoming fallout for ‘The Monsters’ linked including Prince Andrew, Steve Bannon, Bill Clinton, Donald Trump and Jes Staley
The rotten rabbit hole that is the Epstein-Maxwell saga seems to never end. Barely a day goes by without new developments or old ones being revisited and in the last week, the prospects of further fallout for linked parties has only grown.
Aside from Prince Andrew whingeing and whining via third parties that he has been left “bewildered” and “in despair” after King Charles III cut him off from access to the £650 million ($782 million, €735 million or درهم2.9 billion) estate left by Queen Elizabeth II, the non-sweating ‘bestie’ of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell is allegedly also ludicrously proposing a new television interview “telling his side” of the story. An unnamed source last week went as far as to claim now “feels there is little else to lose” and that “nothing is off the table… Andrew has been made to give up his job and now potentially his home.”
Turning to Maxwell and her appeal prospects, on Thursday The Guardian’s New York based ‘reporter of courts’ Victoria Bekiempis analysed the mucky madam’s prospects. Bekiempis argued Maxwell “faces [a] hard road in bid to overturn sex-trafficking conviction” with the help of her new lawyer, a representative also of Harvey Weinstein named Arthur L. Aidala.
Going further, Bekiempis added:
“[Aidala has] said Maxwell was a ‘proxy’ for Epstein who was prosecuted ‘to satisfy public outrage over an unpopular non-prosecution agreement and the death of the person responsible for the crimes’ … [His] comments might have been aimed more at generating sympathetic media coverage than being a predictor of the appeal’s likely success. Maxwell cannot mount an appeal based on her own claims that she was a hapless surrogate for Epstein, or too tired at trial.”
“Her legal team will have to argue instead that there were legal errors in proceedings against her that necessitate a verdict reversal, and that is where her bid to have her conviction overturned will succeed or – according to many legal experts – more likely fail.”
“‘The likelihood of the second circuit reversing her trial verdict is close to zero,’ said Ron Kuby, a longtime criminal defense attorney with a focus on civil rights. ‘The second circuit tends to uphold almost all criminal convictions as a general matter.’”
“In the rare cases the second circuit does reverse a trial court outcome, leading to a new trial, it is typically because prosecutors have over-stretched a legal theory – or because the US supreme court has made a decision that affects proceedings in lower courts, Kuby said.”
“‘But Maxwell’s trial was none of that – the Maxwell trial was all very well-plowed legal territory,’ Kuby said. The proceedings against Maxwell – which stemmed from serving as Epstein’s procurer of victims – were not complicated by racketeering counts, nor convoluted bribery charges.”
“‘It’s like very, very, very fancy trappings, but fundamentally, it’s the prosecution of a pimp, which is not that complicated,” Kuby said.”
“Rachel Fiset, co-founder of Los Angeles firm Zweiback, Fiset & Zalduendo, said she thought a successful appeal was ‘unlikely.’”
“While Maxwell, who was sentenced to 20 years in prison, will probably fail in her appeal, there is still a reason for her to try.”
“‘She’s looking at a very long sentence, and they are looking at ways to have it overturned, and there are not any options beyond an appeal,’ Fiset said. ‘She doesn’t have very much to lose other than the cost of the appeal.’”
“‘It’s not uncommon for people with a lot of means to appeal their conviction in the hopes that it’s overturned. Maxwell has remained very steadfast that she has not committed these crimes and that it’s not her fault, so the appeal is not surprising.’”
Elsewhere, interest in Epstein and Maxwell’s involvement with Donald Trump was revived yesterday in Business Insider. In an article titled: “Jeffrey Epstein said he stopped hanging out with Trump ‘when he realised Trump was a crook,’ according to his brother,” writer Jacob Shamsian quoted the croaked paedophile’s sibling Mark Epstein.
Referencing a still to be released video interview between Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump’s disgraced White House advisor Steve Bannon, Shamsian shared:
“Mark Epstein told Insider he viewed a clip of the interview, conducted by Trump’s former White House advisor Steve Bannon, after his brother forwarded it to him in the spring of 2019.”
“At the time, Bannon was conducting filmed interviews with the now-dead pedophile financier. Bannon sent Jeffrey Epstein a Dropbox link to a clip, which he forwarded to his brother. The link is no longer active, according to Mark.”
“‘Jeffrey showed me the link to one of these interviews,’ Mark Epstein said. ‘And in that interview, Jeffrey said he stopped hanging out with Trump when he realised Trump was a crook.’”
“Insider has not been able to independently view the video. Bannon could not be reached for comment.”
“For the documentary project, Bannon recorded more than 16 hours of footage, Mark Epstein said. In November of 2018, the Miami Herald ran a series detailing how Jeffrey Epstein secured a secret, lenient plea deal with federal prosecutors in Florida in 2007, even after law enforcement concluded at the time that he had sexually abused more than 30 girls.”
“‘Steve Bannon was working with Jeffrey to try to help Jeffrey rehabilitate his reputation,’ Mark Epstein told Insider.”
“Bannon and Epstein had become close in 2017, after Bannon left the White House, according to the journalist Michael Wolff. Bannon lived lavishly off Epstein’s vast wealth, using his Paris apartment and butler in 2018.”
“Bannon released a trailer in 2021 for his apparent documentary about Epstein, titled The Monsters [subtitled: ‘Epstein’s Life Among The Global Elite’]. The entire documentary has not yet been released.”
“Both Bannon and Trump now have their own legal issues. The Manhattan district attorney’s office has pending criminal charges against Bannon, alleging he participated in a scam nonprofit organization that raised funds to build a wall on the US-Mexico border. Trump pardoned Bannon on federal charges for the same scheme before he left office. Bannon’s lawyers in the federal case are suing him for allegedly not paying his bills. Bannon was also found guilty last year of contempt of Congress for defying a House January 6 committee hearing subpoena.”
“Trump, for his part, is facing a potential indictment from the Manhattan district attorney’s office for a hush-money scheme ahead of the 2016 election, a rape case headed to trial in April, and a litany of other legal woes.”
Turning to the Department of Justice investigation into Epstein’s death, in a separate and rather lengthy article for Business Insider last Thursday, Shamsian observed:
“Jeffrey Epstein’s death in a federal jail was seen as a shocking Justice Department failure. Over three years later, the DOJ inspector general hasn’t released the results of its investigation. Epstein’s accusers – and his brother – still want answers.”
“The officials said Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide. Pressed for more detail, they just repeated themselves.”
“‘They didn’t give me any information other than ‘After a thorough investigation, we determined it was a suicide,’ Mark Epstein said. ‘It was like I was talking to a f**king robot.’”
“The meeting [on 28th October 2019, two months after his brother’s death] was the only time Mark got any answers from the DOJ about his brother’s death. Three years later, he still doesn’t know exactly how Epstein died and why it’s taken the government that long to share its answer to that question.”
“Mark Epstein told Insider that even though he’s Jeffrey’s next of kin, he hasn’t been able to obtain certain medical records, including the care reports filled out by EMTs who evaluated his brother’s corpse.”
“‘For many people, the death was suspicious, to say the least,’ said Gloria Allred, an attorney who represents 20 of Epstein’s victims. ‘Others have their own conclusions about what happened to Mr Epstein. But the speculation needs to be replaced by facts and evidence.’”
“Mark Epstein remains puzzled by the holdup. He’s convinced his brother didn’t kill himself and stands by the conclusions of Baden, who personally observed the four-hour autopsy of Jeffrey Epstein’s body.”
“‘We all took it by surprise,’ Mark Epstein told Insider. ‘Nobody thought he was gonna kill himself. Nobody.’”
“After losing all [his lavish life on his arrest in 2019], it was possible he found the prospect of life behind bars unappealing, Mark Epstein said. ‘When I first heard that my brother was dead, and found dead from suicide, I just figured, ‘OK, he decided to take himself out,’ he told Insider.”
“An Insider poll taken later that fall found nearly half of Americans believed Epstein was murdered.”
“When Mark Epstein saw Barr dismiss the possibility of a murder based on his review of security footage outside Jeffrey Epstein’s cell tier, he wasn’t remotely satisfied.
“What I thought was, this is either a cover-up, or he’s the dumbest f**k on the planet,’ Mark Epstein said.”
“To Mark, [Attroney General Bill] Barr’s version of events suggests he came to the conclusion that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself and then backfilled evidence from there.”
“Barr seemed to consider only the possibility that a murderer would have been someone who snuck into the jail. Mark told Insider he was gobsmacked that Barr didn’t seem to consider the possibility that someone else in Jeffrey Epstein’s block of cells killed him.”
“Mark Epstein told Insider that he spoke to his brother about once a month in the years before his death. The two caught up over the phone while Jeffrey Epstein was in Paris, the night before he flew to New Jersey and was arrested after his private jet landed.”
“Jeffrey Epstein had reasons to stay alive, Mark said. He didn’t leave a suicide note – or at least none that has been reported – and reportedly deposited money into other inmates’ commissary accounts in return for protection. People who spoke with him in the weeks leading up to his death believed he was optimistic about getting the charges dismissed.”
“Mark Epstein told Insider he built his wealth independently from his brother, founding a silk-screening business before pivoting to real estate with Ossa Properties, which at one point reportedly owned hundreds of apartments in New York City.
“At least one of Mark Epstein’s Upper East Side buildings, however, includes multiple links to his brother. Mark has said he purchased it from the business magnate Leslie Wexner, his brother’s longtime patron. Jeffrey Epstein owned about a dozen apartments in the building, which he used to house at least one of his sex-trafficking victims as well as his private pilots while they were staying in New York, according to testimony at Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial. Right before Epstein died, his lawyers were preparing to appeal a judge’s decision to deny him bail. They had prepared a bond package valued at $100 million.”
“Mark Epstein agreed to guarantee the whole thing, he told Insider, meaning he’d lose that amount of money if his brother tried to flee authorities.”
“‘If you get bail, you’re gonna be home for a year – under house arrest, with an ankle bracelet, armed guards, video cameras, whatever the conditions were – but he’ll be in his house,’ Mark Epstein said. ‘So why kill yourself then?’”

Pictured Top – Steve Bannon’s likely shelved film ‘The Monsters: Epstein’s Life Among The Global Elite’ would (or will) undoubtedly feature not only the croaked paedophile, but also his lover and co-collaborator Ghislaine Maxwell, his “heartfelt” friend and banker Jes Staley and the ‘bestie’ that came to “end their friendship in December 2010,” Prince Andrew.
This morning on Twitter, Matthew Steeples asked: “Who is going to “suffer” most next in fallout from Epstein-Maxwell sex trafficking saga given Jes Staley court case, Trump & Clinton revelations & Prince Andrew’s latest tantrums?” He added the hashtags: #GhislaineMaxwell #JeffreyEpstein #JesStaley #PrinceAndrew #BillClinton #DonaldTrump #SteveBannon and of the four options listed, by 11:30am on Sunday 12th March, the clear majority of respondents favoured the option that it’ll be worst for the “other famous faces linked” than anyone else.

The trailer for the as-of-yet still unreleased Steve Bannon film ‘The Monsters –Epstein’s Life Among The Global Elite’ lasts 2:02-minutes. Of the 16 hours of footage, many are still asking: “Where exactly is the film?” in which Bannon allegedly accused Jeffrey Epstein of being a spy even.Jeffrey Epstein looked at ease whilst being interviewed for a programme subsequently titled ‘The Monsters’ by Steve Bannon. Only a trailer for it has been released thus far (in 2021) and in it in October 2021, the ‘New York Post’ reported that late pedophile stunningly claimed “that he was a “’irm believer and supporter’ of the anti-sexual harassment Time’s Up movement.” Calling him out as a “pervert,” the paper added that he observed: “I made my living from old thinking. But the future is for the way women think. I’ve always believed that women will be, in fact, be able to take over.”That Steve Bannon supposedly spent around 16 hours recording convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as part of an attempt to allegedly help “rehabilitate” him at his Lenox Hill ‘Paedo Palace’ – sold subsequently for £36 million in March 2021 – sometime in 2018 speaks volumes as the lack of quality of his moral compass. Steve Bannon released his trailer for ‘The Monsters’ under the banner of Victory Films. In August 2020, ‘The Wrap’ shared details of “all 19 movies and shows [that he] wrote, directed or produced.” Amongst them were ‘The Indian Runner’ (1991) with Sean Penn, ‘Seinfeld’ (1992), ‘Titus’ with Anthony Hopkins (1999), ‘Reagan: In the Face of Evil’ (2004), ‘Border War: The Battle Over Illegal Immigration’ (2006), ‘Tradition Never Graduates: A Season Inside Notre Dame Football’ (2007), ‘The Chaos Experiment’ with Val Kilmer (2009), ‘Generation Zero’ (2010), ‘Battle for America’ (2010), ‘Fire from the Heartland’ (2010), ‘Sarah Palin: The Undefeated’ (2010), ‘The Hope & the Change’ (2012), ‘District of Corruption’ (2012), ‘Occupy Unmasked’ (2012), ‘Sweetwater’ with January Jones and Ed Harris (2013), ‘Rickover: The Birth of Nuclear Power’ (2014), ‘Clinton Cash’ (2016), ‘Torchbearer’ (2016) and ‘Trump @ War’ (2018). Other companies and organisations the Norfolk, Virginia born naval officer and investment banker turned media tycoon and political strategist wannabe has been involved in have numbered Bannon & Co. (sold to Société Générale in 1998), ‘Breitbart News,’ IGE, the Government Accountability Institute, The Movement and Cambridge Analytica.The noxious nonce Ghislaine Maxwell (pictured with her avaricious late mother Betty in 1991) appears incapable of accepting her sentence. Set to attempt to pile yet more misery on her multiple victims, this convicted sex trafficker should be made aware that in 2015 court administration data “indicated that less than 9% of federal appeals in reversals of lower courts,” according to ‘The Guardian’s’ Victoria Bekiempis.Meanwhile Jeffrey Epstein’s very, very rich brother Mark has again been spreading his thoughts about the demise of the Ponzi scheming paedophile. Mark Epstein is clearly very motivated and in suggesting his late brother believed Donald Trump (pictured with his wife Melania Knauss and Ghislaine Maxwell also) to be a “crook,” he is clearly trying to change the narrative in his own favour.President Bill Clinton (pictured at the White House with the co-conspirator sex traffickers Epstein and Maxwell on 29th September 1993) faces further woes from the fallout also. Allegations that Clinton and Maxwell had sexual liaisons that became a full-blown affair have abounded, but remain unconfirmed by either party. Equally, Epstein and Clinton travelled together on multiple occasions and clearly shared a mutual liking for young girls also. The former POTUS was most certainly advised about the derelict and deviant actions of the nefarious former taxi driver turned financier, yet conveniently chose to ignore such and to instead accept the dirty devil’s dollar.One of Jeffrey Epstein’s closest pals, ‘Snow White’ communicator James Edward Staley (AKA ‘Jes Staley’), faces his own woes with a summons on a third-party complaint from JPMorganChase Bank, N.A. and ‘Jane Doe 1’ in regard to his “activities” with and on behalf of his deceased chum. The late CEO of J. P. Morgan and Barclays – who resides at 930 Park Avenue, Unit GN/6S, New York, NY 10028 with his wife Debbie – is set to go down in history as a total disgrace.Meanwhile, the Pizza Express loving mate of the facing-a-trial-for-a-£400-million fraud Bernie Ecclestone that is the Duke of York must be called out as utterly nuts if he decides to give another interview. His last, with Emily Maitlis for the BBC, was an utter car crash of total epic proportions. No doubt encouraged by his money grabbing live-in ex-wife, ‘Feckless Fergie’ (AKA ‘Sarah, Duchess of York), and his dimwitted daughters, here is a needy and greedy berk who King Charles III should most definitely just “cancel.”
Matthew Steeples examines whether the recent suicide by gunshot of “the envy of Wall Street” billionaire Thomas H. Lee was in any way linked to a clear association with Bill Clinton and a possible one with Jeffrey Epstein
Thomas H. Lee did not appear in the 95-page infamous ‘Little Black Book’ associated with Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell. Now, however, after his apparent ‘suicide’ this billionaire financier has not only described as “considerate, generous and unpretentious” and a “constant presence” in her life by Hillary Clinton, but also as having “links” to Jeffrey Epstein.
Sparking rumours of yet another example of the ‘Clinton Body Count’ – the much disputed conspiracy theory that as many as fifty people with close links to the Clintons have died in nefarious circumstances – Stephen M. Lepore for the DailyMail.com shared a photograph of Lee at a New York shindig with another billionaire named Robert Kraft and a couple named Glenn and Eva Dubin. Swedish Ms Andersson-Dubin dated Jeffrey Epstein prior to his 2008 conviction and continued to “socialise with [him] after his time in jail,” Bloomberg reported in 2019.
The 78-year-old Harvard graduate and founder of Lee Equity Partners and Thomas H. Lee Partners was best known himself for having bought the soft drinks brand Snapple Beverages in 1992 for £112 million ($135 million, €127 million or درهم496 million) and sold it for a 334% profit to Quaker Oats for £1.4 billion ($1.7 billion, €1.6 billion or درهم6.2 billion) in 1994.
Known also for being an “avid art collector,” father of five Lee also served as a trustee of Lincoln Center, the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Jewish Heritage, Brandeis University, Cardozo Law School at Yeshiva University, Combined Jewish Philanthropies of Greater Boston, Harvard University, the Intrepid Museum Foundation, NYU Medical Center, and Rockefeller University.
In a statement currently opening the homepage of their website, Lee Equity Partners shared:
“It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our Founder and Chairman, Thomas H. Lee. He was a great partner and wonderful friend whose vision will continue to influence us for many years to come.”
“Tom’s determination, commitment and strategic vision will continue to inspire all of us at Lee Equity Partners. He was a leader, a friend, a partner, and our mentor. We know he will be proud as the firm continues on, with strength. We will work every day to meet the high standards he has set for us and the entire industry. On behalf of our employees, management teams and investment partners, we mourn his loss and extend our deepest sympathies to his family.”
Clearly illustrating that something might be amiss in the financial community, a member of the Wall Street Oasis forum last week remarked of Lee’s death:
“Self-inflicted gunshot wound. Wonder if he knows something about the future…”
Another added: “Perhaps another private equity guy with Epstein connections about to get exposed.”
Going further on Monday, Fortune shared an article with the headline: “Thomas H. Lee’s sudden death shocks partners at his $3 billion private investment firm – with a $1 billion fundraise in the balance.”
For the publication, Dawn Lim and Amanda Gordon added:
“Since then, Lee Equity’s executives have been forced to confront a difficult moment. In at least one conversation, they discussed the importance of reassuring clients that there’s no connection between his death and Lee Equity’s financial health or fund performance.”
“Lee’s death has ushered in a new level of public attention for a shop that manages £2.5 billion ($3 billion, €2.8 billion or درهم11 billion) and doesn’t have a formal media-relations team. It also comes at a critical juncture for the 40-person firm, which is raising a £833 million ($X billion, €942 million or درهم3/7 billion) fund just as investors have become increasingly reluctant to part with their cash amid volatile markets. The firm has raised the vast majority of that fund, other people said.”
“The suicide also presents a test for key partners Mark Gormley, Benjamin Hochberg, Yoo Jin Kim and Joseph Rotberg. They’re among eight executives who climbed the ranks to take bigger leadership roles and steered the firm into financial services and health care.”
“Some investors have taken comfort in the fact that succession is largely complete, people said. They pushed for the firm to spread its wealth more evenly among partners and had sway in the years after the financial crisis, when buyout firms struggled to raise new money. Lee’s cut of the profits was less than 10% for the firm’s last fund.”
“In recent days, several institutions extended condolences and provided expressions of support to the firm. Investors such as Alaska Permanent Fund Corp. committed money to the new fund. The firm’s backers have said they hope Lee’s death doesn’t rattle new investors.”
Returning to the story of the mystery surrounding the supposed ‘suicide’ also by gun shot of Bill Clinton aide turned Jeffrey Epstein associate and wannabe “international deal-maker” Mark Middleton, speaking exclusively to The Steeple Times this morning, Shaun Attwood provided comment to follow up by our two articles this week by Kirby Sommers and Matthew Steeples. The author of Who Killed Epstein? Prince Andrew or Bill Clinton? shared:
“Yet another ‘suicide’ in a long line of suicides #ClintonBodyCount. No surprises here when it comes to the Machiavellian behaviour of the Clinton crime family who’ve left a trail of corpses behind them from Arkansas when Bill was governor to the White House. It is a trail that continues to this day with Jeffrey Epstein and Jean-Luc Brunel.”
Separately, in developing news about the possible move of the “simple shooting party” bestie of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell that is Prince Andrew to Frogmore Cottage and possibly taking over Prince Harry and the former Meghan Markle’s home, Matthew Steeples and Shaun Attwood will be live at 7pm GMT on YouTube tonight to discuss this in the fourth episode of Meghan Markle Expose.

Issues covered primarily focus on the ‘FORGXIT’ saga of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex from Frogmore Cottage, but there is also discussion of Prince Andrew and his grifting wife, Sarah, Duchess of York – a woman who has still never confirmed if she repaid the loans she so disgracefully took from the since croaked paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.Mr Lee’s body was found in a bathroom at his office at 767 Fifth Avenue, New York at around 11am on 23rd February. The 78-year-old was pronounced dead shortly after. A “family friend and spokesperson” named Michael Sitrick later shared: “While the world knew him as one of the pioneers in the private equity business and a successful businessman, we knew him as a devoted husband, father, grandfather, sibling, friend and philanthropist who always put others’ needs before his own.” Just prior to the time of his passing, ‘Forbes’ estimated his worth at £1.7 billion ($2 billion, €1.9 billion or درهم7.3 billion).The now deceased billionaire (second left) partying with the billionaire businessman CEO of the Kraft Group Bob Kraft, the billionaire hedge fund manager Glenn Dubin and his “allegedly racy” wife Dr Eva Andersson-Dubin. Back in April 2022, ‘The Steeple Times’ featured the story of neighbours of the “decidedly dubious Dubins” slashing the price of their Upper East Side apartment from £25.1 million to £21.2 million. Of this news, a New York realtor told us: “1040 Fifth Avenue certainly has a perky past, but whilst Jackie Kennedy and Generoso Pope Jr. were unlikely bedfellows when they both lived there at the same time, the stench of the Epstein-Maxwell connections of Glenn, Eva and Celina Dubin is actually very off-putting to buyers. Who on earth would want to live next to them? It’s no wonder no one is biting-at-the-bit to snap up the apartment currently on offer and I can only suggest the sellers perhaps put off marketing until these two social misfits move off elsewhere.”In February 2021, ‘The Steeple Times’ shared an exclusive story courtesy of information supplied by the crusading author of ‘Ghislaine Maxwell: An Unauthorized Biography’ Kirby Sommers concerning Glenn and Eva Dubin. In it, we featured pictures of the vile paedophile Jeffrey Epstein with one of the couple’s daughters on his lap on his notorious sex trafficking private jet. We titled the article: ‘PLANE PERVERTED.’The house Mr Lee – who went by the self-assigned nickname ‘Tomcat’ as he believed he had “nine different lives” – shared with his second wife Ann Tenenbaum in East Hampton, New York. Of it, the ‘New York Post’ observed: “‘He was regarded as having one of the most admired houses in the Hamptons – Bill and Hillary Clinton were frequent guests, they would regularly stay there,’ the source told ‘The Post.’ The Clintons famously holed up at Lee’s East Hampton pad after the bruising 2008 Democratic primary. ‘He was a regular at Maidstone golf club,’ also, the source noted.”Both Hillary Clinton and her husband attended the New York funeral service for Brooklyn born Thomas Haskell Lee (27th March 1944 – 23rd February 2023) on Monday 1st March 2023 at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall. Remarking, Hillary Clinton commented: “Tom was a constant presence. “We’ve shared births and weddings and anniversaries, state dinners at the White House, lively parties from New York City to Martha’s Vineyard to the Hamptons during good times and tough ones. We’re here expressing our gratitude for years as friends, as colleagues and certainly as family members for his long, successful life.” Mr Lee leaves five children – Jesse, Zach, Nathan, Robbie and Rosalie as well as Ann Tenenbaum, the second wife he married in 1996.Ghislaine Maxwell with Jeffrey Epstein and President Bill Clinton at the White House on 29th September 1993.

Crusading author Kirby Sommers follows up on the theories surrounding the mystery of the ‘murder v suicide’ death of Clinton-Epstein associate Mark Middleton
When looking for clues as to why Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein associate Mark Middleton – whose clearly strange demise featured in The Steeple Times earlier this week – suddenly decided to commit ‘suicide’ (in quotes because I personally believe he was murdered), I place it under what I refer to as my “Arkansas lenses.”
When Bill Clinton became Attorney General from 1977 to 1979 and then Governor of Arkansas from 1979 to 1981 (and then again from 1983 to 1992), he was already involved with shady men and shady deals.
Mena, the small airfield in Arkansas, had been associated with the Washington-sponsored guns for drugs under the CIAs multiple covert operations. The most well-known connection is to the Iran-Contra affair; although Mena itself became infamous when it made into the Hollywood film American Made starring Tom Cruise in the role of drug-smuggler Barry Seal.
Mark Middleton belonged to the trusted group of men Clinton brought with him from Arkansas to Washington, D.C. During my research of Clinton’s time in Arkansas, state and local police were alleged to be corrupt answering only to him. There were consequences for those who went against him.
Middleton kept Clinton’s secrets – extra-marital affairs and other less talked about matters. This is evidenced by the fact that he is the person who gave Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell access to the White House seven out of the 17 times they are known to have visited the residence. Middleton also flew with Clinton, Epstein, Maxwell, and a couple of unidentified females aboard the now infamous ‘Lolita Express’ private jet.
Did Middleton know too much? Clearly, the answer is yes.
However, Middleton left the White House in 1995. This is where things take a turn, because while he was attempting to become an international dealmaker, he found himself suddenly barred and without access unless he obtained high-level approval. Formally, Middleton was the aid to presidential advisor Thomas F. ‘Mack’ McLarty. McLarty is one of Clinton’s oldest friends having attended the same kindergarten class in Hope, Arkansas.
While McLarty gave Middleton the bad news – it really came from Clinton.
After leaving his job, Middleton was initially allowed to continue using his business cards, had a voice-mail message on the White House telephone system and met with business clients at the dining room in the White House.
Clinton has been known to accept gratuities in exchange for his patronage. Did Middleton forget to thank him properly?
With his dreams of becoming a wheeler-dealer scratched, Middleton moved back to Arkansas and began a family owned air conditioning company.
It is my belief that were it not for the intense publicity the Epstein and Maxwell case received that Middleton would be alive today. After all, it had been a long time since he had accompanied Clinton anywhere.
Suddenly, however, the long-forgotten photos of Clinton shaking hands with Epstein and his lady-friend Maxwell were in newspapers around the world and his name was prominently displayed as the person who gave Epstein access.
Too many people, including Clinton, have much to hide about their involvement with Epstein.
On 7th May 2022, the 59-year-old Middleton was found hanging from a tree with an extension cord around his neck and a wound to the chest. His death was ruled a suicide. Was this a message to others to stay silent?

The obituary for the late Mark Middleton. Was it suicide or was it murder made to look like suicide in the case of this very, very odd death?Ghislaine Maxwell with Jeffrey Epstein and President Bill Clinton at the White House on 29th September 1993. The since exposed as paedophile pair were admitted on that occasion by Mark Middleton. Allegations that Clinton and Maxwell had sexual liaisons that became a full-blown affair have abounded, but remain unconfirmed by either party.Since croaked paedophile and Ponzi schemer Jeffrey Epstein with President Clinton. The pair travelled together on multiple occasions and clearly shared a mutual liking for young girls also. The former POTUS was most certainly advised about the derelict and deviant actions of the nefarious former taxi driver turned financier, yet conveniently chose to ignore such and to instead accept the dirty devil’s dollar.Questions remain as to what involvement President Bill Clinton had with Mark Middleton in the years since he left office. Was this death a case of a man who knew too much being added to the ‘Clinton body count’ list?
The “mysterious” death of Clinton-Epstein associate Mark Middleton may have been ruled suicide, but rumours that he was murdered are clearly not going away
“I’m not saying the Clintons kill people, I’m saying a lot of people around the Clintons turn up dead” remarked early Bill Clinton associate turned critic Larry Nichols after five people associated with them died in bizarre circumstances between 22nd June and 2nd August 2016.
Now, in spite of Zachary Stieber of The Epoch Times last week revealing that the death of the Bill Clinton aide Mark Middleton has now been officially ruled a suicide, suggestions that he was instead murdered are now again being recirculated by some with grave suspicions about this odd case.
59-year-old father of two Middleton – who was responsible for admitting Jeffrey Epstein to the White House on seven of the seventeen occasions the since croaked paedophile visited between 1993 and 1995 – is described on Wikipedia as having been an “Arkansas business leader, mutual friend of Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein, and former finance director for Clinton’s presidential campaign and later special assistant to Clinton.” He was found dead on 7th May 2022 at the Heifer Ranch in Perryville, Arkansas, an hour west of Little Rock.
Before he died, Middleton, who was also assistant to Clinton chief of staff Thomas F. ‘Mack’ McLarty, is said to have texted his wife, Rhea. His messages supposedly told her that he had found “the perfect place for a nap in the sun.” He added: “You are a great mom and wide babe… Please be happy today and get some sun. It will make you feel better. I love you.”
“He had a gunshot wound to the chest and an extension cord wrapped around his neck. The cord was tied to the limb of a tree directly above his body.”
“Upon searching Middleton’s vehicle, officials found three boxes of buckshot and a gun case, but no weapon.”
Going further and adding immediate mystery that aroused suspicion, the Daily Mail emphasised the “no sign of a weapon” story whilst Clinton.news argued the death to be “baffling.”
Middleton – who is known to have flown on Epstein’s ‘Lolita Express’ private jet on several occasions – left the White House in February 1995 and most recently worked for his family business in Little Rock. Of him, the DailyMail.com’s Daniel Bates alleged: “[He] was accused of setting himself up as an international deal-maker, exactly the kind of person that would appeal to Epstein… Middleton’s life in recent years was a world away from the power he enjoyed in the 1990s.”
Adding fuel to the fire of conspiracy last week, Bates added that the death scene was “grisly” and the method of death “mysterious.” He argued:
“The sheriff’s report into Mark Middleton’s mysterious death raises more questions than answers as it rules he died by suicide – despite no sign of the weapon that killed him.”
“Release of the report was held up after members of his family petitioned a judge. They were worried that pictures from the gory scene would be made public. The judge eventually ruled that details could be released but photographs could not.”
Middleton’s bizarre end continues to be discussed online. On the Wikipedia page devoted to the “Clinton body count conspiracy theory,” is a statement that reads: “The coroner’s report ruled the death a suicide even though he was tied to a tree and no weapon was found near the body.”
Countering this point, The Poynter Institute’s Politifact – which is funded by amongst others the billionaire Charles Koch and which was created by the Tampa Bay Times newspaper in 2007 – last week observed: “The family was ‘shocked’ by conspiracy theories that emerged Middleton’s death… We rate claims that a Clinton aide was murdered False.”

Ghislaine Maxwell with Jeffrey Epstein and President Bill Clinton at the White House on 29th September 1993. Allegations that Clinton and Maxwell had sexual liaisons that became a full blown affair have abounded, but remain unconfirmed by either party.Since croaked paedophile and Ponzi schemer Jeffrey Epstein with President Clinton. The pair travelled together on multiple occasions and clearly shared a mutual liking for young girls also. The former POTUS was most certainly advised about the derelict and deviant actions of the nefarious former taxi driver turned financier, yet conveniently chose to ignore such and to instead accept the dirty devil’s dollar.Jeffrey Epstein (with Ghislaine Maxwell behind him) didn’t just associate with Democrats like Bill Clinton. Republican President Donald Trump fell for his charms also and once even had a party with him where the only guests were them and 28 girls. Apologists for Trump make hay out of their claim that Trump distanced himself subsequently yet rumours abound that his current wife, Melania, was potentially trafficked on Epstein’s ‘Lolita Express’ private jet. It is also alleged that the then Melania Knauss met Jeffrey Epstein prior to her meeting Donald Trump. Could the Ponzi schemer be the one who introduced the Slovenian ‘export’ to her subsequent American husband?Hillary Clinton also had a penchant for hanging around with the associates of Epstein and Maxwell. She is pictured here at her party with her hands all over the grubby groper Harvey Weinstein – another creep subsequently jailed for sexual abuse and another creep who also partied with Prince Andrew at Windsor with Epstein and Maxwell.Crusading author Kirby Sommers commented on the revelations about Mark Middleton on Twitter last week. She remarked that “questions remain unanswered” and suggested he “will not go silently into the night.” Follow Kirby Sommers on Twitter at @LandlordLinks and purchase her book ‘Ghislaine Maxwell: An Unauthorized Biography’ by clicking here.Twitter has abounded with theories about the death of Mark Middleton in the wake of his death being deemed a suicide. Most commenting do not believe the coroner’s verdict.The “no gun at the scene” theory is the key point to the continuation of the rumours about this matter.
A year on from her conviction, the rabbit hole that is the story of Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein and their victims widens with new lawsuits on the horizon and new troubles for Prince Andrew also
As someone named Niki Watkins once crooned: “If you think it’s all over, then the joke is on you” and a year on from her conviction, the saga of Ghislaine Maxwell and her wicked associates continues to deliver up new twists and turns that prove that this is a saga that is far from over.
In a 30-minute podcast, released on New Year’s Eve by Law & Crime, attorneys Sigrid McCawley and Kenya Davis reflected on “recent developments” and claimed that “a new Empire State law could change the course of the investigation in 2023.”
Of this, Law & Crime’s Adam Klasfeld reported:
“Known as the Adult Survivors Act, the statute temporarily suspends the statute of limitations on historic sexual abuse claims. The statute is similar to and broadens the reach of another New York law called the Child Victims Act, which focused on the sexual abuse of minors specifically.”
Addressing the matter that sends the Twitterati into a tizzy on a daily basis as to no other accused co-conspirator of Maxwell having been charged, McCawley – who has represented a number of Epstein’s victims including Annie Farmer – declared: “I think the lesson and legacy of the Ghislaine Maxwell case is that nobody is above the law in the United States.”
Going further, Davis added: “I think you will see a ramp-up pretty, pretty quickly, especially after the start of the year” with “more docket activity soon.”
Whilst Donald Trump “wished her well, whatever that may mean” in times past of his old mucker Maxwell, he may well now be hoping she does something completely different. The 45th POTUS and Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew and others will most definitely prefer ‘The Bouncing Czech’s’ deviant daughter continues down the path of solemn silence.
Elsewhere on 30th December, the New York Post reported that Virginia Roberts Giuffre has now claimed that a defamation suit filed against her by Rina Oh, a lover of the dead paedophile Epstein during the early 2000s, is “a sham.” Ms Oh, whom admitted she had “brought at least three women to Epstein” in 2020, had filed a £8.4 million ($10 million, €9.5 million or درهم36.7 million) suit last January after Giuffre publicly named her as “one of Epstein’s recruiters” on Twitter.
At the time, this now 39-year-old lady who also received a sum estimated as high as £10.1 million ($12 million, €11.3 million or درهم44.1 million) from Prince Andrew in spite of him claiming he’d never met her, claimed Oh’s interview had “retraumatised” her. Oh had revealed she had taken the “then-teenage Giuffre to buy a school girl outfit to please the rich financier – justifying the outing by saying ‘17 to me is not a child’” and also stands accused of “cutting and slashing her as part of the sadomasochist abuse for Epstein’s pleasure.”
Editor’s Note – Unlike as is the case in many publications, this article was NOT sponsored or supported by a third-party.
Rina Oh now lauds herself as “producing art therapy with children” and an “longtime advocate of healthy eating for children” but also has been accused of doing far worse things to youngsters by Virginia Roberts Giuffre. Ms Oh is quite proud of her work with children, chefs and restaurateurs like Jacques Pépin (pictured far right) and Dave Arnold and even has a blog named ‘Dining With Out-Laws.’ She is far quieter about her time as the supposed girlfriend of Jeffrey Epstein.Rina Oh – according to the podcast ‘The Recruiters: Broken: Seeking Justice’ – has suggested the 10th March 2001 photograph of Ghislaine Maxwell, Prince Andrew and Virginia Roberts at 44 Kinnerton Street, Belgravia, London to be a “composite” and not genuine. Ms Oh has produced paintings herself of Jeffrey Epstein as Bacchus, Ghislaine Maxwell “nude in The Garden of Sin (like Eve)” and also sketched images of the pension pot plunderer Robert Maxwell also; her husband, Vincent Amen, was a “a former Michael Jackson employee who was named as one of five alleged unindicted co-conspirators in the late star’s unsuccessful 2005 molestation trial. Mr Amen denied the allegations.” Michael Thomas, a New Zealand photographer, who photographed the original 10th March 2001 image in 2011 responded: “As I have said before, it was just an ordinary photo you would have got from a chemist in the days of negatives. Surely, if it was fake, every media outlet in the world would be getting sued for using it. The fact that isn’t happening, to me says everything… It wasn’t like [Roberts Giuffre] pulled the photo of Prince Andrew out, it was just in among the rest of them. They were just typical teenage snaps. There’s no way that photo is fake.”For Prince Andrew (pictured here with mutual Epstein and Maxwell chum Peter Mandelson), aside from being turfed out of Buckingham Palace by his elder brother as the year begins, life could take a turn for the worse on another front. The gagging order agreed to when the late Queen’s second son agreed to pay a sum estimated between £3 million and £10 million to Virginia Roberts Giuffre comes to an end in February. After that time, Ms Giuffre will be free to write about the matter and give interviews; her commentary could prove yet another bombshell given what she’s previously said of ‘Randy Andy’ and others.Lord Mandelson ‘living-it-up’ with Jeffrey Epstein in the presence of the latter’s butler, Valdson Viera Cotrin, at the £10 million Parisian paedo pad owned by the Ponzi scheming sex fiend circa 20th January 2007. That the Labour peer – whose name 10 numbers attributed features in the Epstein-Maxwell ‘black book’ – was willing to celebrate the financier’s birthday with him is shocking – especially given it was widely by then known that Epstein had been charged with sex crimes in August 2006. The key ‘classic question’ Lord Mandelson now needs to answer is a paraphrasing of that put to decidedly dippy Debbie McGee by the late Caroline Ahern (in her role as the bonkers but brilliant ‘Mrs Merton’) in 1997: “What, first, Peter, was it that attracted you to the multi-millionaire Jeffrey Epstein?”Meanwhile now, though Maxwell will go down in history alongside her wicked sex offenders including Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein, outrage remains that not a single one of those she sex trafficked her victims to has been brought to justice.Shockingly, in spite of being due to appear in court in the UK this month on sexual assault charges, Kevin Spacey (pictured partying in Buckingham Palace with Ghislaine Maxwell), is to play President Franjo Tudjman in a 90-minute film titled ‘Once Upon A Time in Croatia.’ Director Jakov Sedlar justified giving Spacey the role and claimed “[he] is absolutely innocent” in comments to ‘The Times’ yesterday.Facing troubles on other fronts… Notorious for fakery as well as for being a convicted sex offender and noxious nonce, Ghislaine Maxwell (AKA ‘Mrs Scott Borgerson’ as well ‘Jen Marshall’ and ‘Janet Marshall’; now known just as prisoner 02879-509) faces troubles on the home front. Whilst it is known that Mr Borgerson ended his relationship with Maxwell prior to her December 2021 trial by telephone, it is not known if they have yet divorced. Miss Maxwell transferred some £15 million to her husband since circa 2015 or 2016 and currently the sum owed to lawyers is an estimated £3 million plus. The prospects for the mucky madam now being able to afford to appeal her sentence thus looks more and more unlikely.
As sex abuse victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre concludes matters with lawyer Alan Dershowitz with a very clear “dismissed with prejudice and without costs or award of fees to either party” agreement, Bill Clinton gets questioned about his involvement with croaked paedophile Jeffrey Epstein
Firstly, it must be highlighted that Ms Roberts Giuffre was not a participant in the 2021 case that led to the conviction of the sex trafficking nonce daughter of the ‘Bouncing Czech’ – she had settled with her in June 2017 “with Maxwell reportedly paying Giuffre ‘millions’” – and secondly that the matter of Giuffre v Dershowitz is unrelated to the settlement the 39-year-old Sacramento born campaigner reached with the man whom claimed never to have met her, Prince Andrew, in February 2022.
Secondly, though many are now yet again calling into question the reliability of Roberts Giuffre, she also received a settlement from Jeffrey Epstein in 2009. Previously abused by a “close family friend” aged just seven and also bythe international sex trafficker Ron Eppinger aged just fourteen, here is a lady who genuinely has been a victim of abuse for most of her life and here someone who now helps others through her Speak Out, Act, Reclaim (SOAR) non-profit.
Speaking of developments on the Megyn Kelly show on Sirius XM yesterday, Dershowitz stated that Roberts Giuffre’s claims were a “terrible mistake that cause me a lot of grief.” He added that he now wanted to “wish her well” and remarked: “As far as I’m concerned the matter is now resolved and we can all go on living our lives, me with a clean record.”
He subsequently shared his clip on Twitter and accompanied it with commentary that read: “Do you have comments on the alleged – allegation of your connection with Jeffrey Epstein?” In the video footage, very clearly the 42nd POTUS bizarrely burst out laughing and answered: “I think the evidence is clear.”
Again raising questions as to how connected President Clinton was with both Epstein and Maxwell – who even attended his daughter Chelsea’s wedding in Rhinebeck, New York in July 2010 – this new evidence does not prove that this politician was involved in their evil activities, but it does show that he thinks the whole thing a bit of a hoot.

Juan Mendoza captioned his tweet: “I confronted @BillClinton at the rally he held with @RepCuellar in Laredo about his alleged connections to child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. ‘I think the answer is clear’” and later corrected it with a second tweet reading: “Correction: ‘I think the evidence is clear.’”The ending of the Giuffre v Dershowitz case does not change the fact that the plaintiff was abused by numerous others and that she and numerous others were abused by Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and their numerous cohorts. It is time that these famous faces were named and shamed and brought to justice.The non-profit run by Virginia Giuffre, Speak Out, Act, Reclaim (SOAR), is indicative of her dedication to now supporting helping other victims of sex trafficking get help and “reclaim their stories and stand up for themselves.”Jeffrey Epstein with the 42nd President of the United States of America on one of the many occasions they spent days and days together. If you’d spent as much time as the Arkansas born politician did with the Ponzi schemer turned paedophile, you’d surely know something about what he was upto with the young women who accompanied him (even if you did not participate in it). You’d surely also have realised how very wrong this was and you’d have surely also have ended all contact with said monster.The former President living it up with two of his chums whilst in residence in the White House – both of them subsequently convicted sex offenders and both of them people he chose to spend time with on multiple occasions without questioning what they were upto or having his security detail check them out either.Even after her lover Jeffrey Epstein was convicted of sex offences in 2008, the Clinton family continued to welcome Ghislaine Maxwell in spite of the fact that she herself was linked to these crimes. The evil pension pot plunderer’s daughter even attended the 42nd POTUS’s daughter’s wedding in Rhinebeck, New York in July 2010 and sat front row. They do say: “If you lay down with dogs, you wake up with fleas” and in this case that adage most definitely applies.
As he faces a court showdown with Virginia Roberts Giuffre, Ghislaine Maxwell apologist Alan Dershowitz gets deservedly snubbed by his now former friend Larry David
In an interview by telephone with Isaac Chotiner – published in The New Yorker on Tuesday 19th July – the emeritus professor of law at Harvard declared he had been “cancelled” for “daring to defend” Donald Trump and stated of his encounter with David:
“What happened is – it’s interesting because I was having lunch with a very radical lawyer who loves me. I mean, he disagrees with me. We argue all the time, but he is not part of the Chilmark crowd. So I was having lunch with him and then a number of other people were there. Suddenly, Larry David walks in to buy some groceries. I say, ‘Hey. Hi, Larry,’ and he turns away, and he just walks away. I say, ‘Larry, can’t we at least talk?’ He said, ‘No. You’re disgusting.’”
“He said, ‘I saw you pat Mike Pompeo on the back.’ It’s true. I did. Here’s the story. It was the Abraham Accords, or the movement toward peace in Israel under the Trump Administration, which I played a central role in.”
He said, ‘I saw you pat Mike Pompeo on the back.’ It’s true. I did. Here’s the story. It was the Abraham Accords, or the movement toward peace in Israel under the Trump Administration, which I played a central role in.”
Asked if he’d watch Curb Your Enthusiasm again, the leading Ghislaine Maxwell apologist curtly responded:
“No. Because I know that the Larry David that’s in Curb Your Enthusiasm is not a fictional character. He’s the real Larry David… If you know that he’s the real Larry David, that curmudgeon, the nasty guy.”
Elsewhere last week, Virginia Roberts Giuffre – whom accuses Dershowitz of sexually abusing her on at least 6 occasions and claims him to be “engaging in revisionist history” – revealed that she is seeking a date of March 2023 for their defamation. The lawyer and retired Harvard professor has previously claimed to have never met the woman Prince Andrew paid £12 million to in spite of also claiming to have never her and has also called her a “certified, complete, total liar.”

The BBC was rightly forced to apologise for giving the loudmouth lawyer airtime in December 2021 after Ghislaine Maxwell’s conviction in New York. On Twitter, their press team declared giving the lawyer the opportunity to speak “did not meet the BBC’s editorial standards.” They added that they subsequently realized that he “was not a suitable person to interview as an impartial analyst, and we did not make the relevant background clear to our audience.” They concluded: “We will look into how this happened” yet unsurprisingly no heads subsequently rolled.Dershowitz and Epstein pictured together at a Harvard event. The pair liked to portray themselves as sophisticated, but frankly both of them have ended up as being portrayed as grasping, grubby gropers. Of the latter, the former told the ‘Miami Herald’ in June: “Everybody missed it. My wife and I never saw young girls at that house. There was never a young girl in that house. There was never a picture of a young girl in that house. There were pictures of [former President Bill] Clinton, and other prominent people.” Of Virginia Roberts Giuffre, he added: “I want all the $20 million [in civil settlements] she’s gotten to be taken away from her and given to the real victims,” Dershowitz said. “Which I will do. I want her to go to prison for committing massive perjury. This case will never be over until Virginia Giuffre pays the price for her false accusations.”Dershowitz (left) drinking red wine with Epstein (centre) and former Treasury Secretary and later Harvard President Lawrence Summers (right) at a Harvard sponsored event on 9th September 2004 in Cambridge, Massachusetts.At the likely March 2023 trial, lawyers for Roberts Giuffre (pictured above) intend to call in-person witnesses (aside from herself) including David Boies, Sigrid McCawley, Brad Edwards, Paul Cassell, David Stone and Epstein’s first known British victim, Anouska de Georgiou.
Alan Dershowitz was played by Ron Silver in the 1990 American drama film ‘Reversal of Fortune’ with Jeremy Irons as Claus von Bülow and Glenn Close as Sunny von Bülow. The 111-minute film grossed £12.3 million at the box office and was lauded for its “exceptional performances” and “cunning script.”
As rumours swirl about whether they are still actually living together, Boris Johnson and his puppet mistress Carrie unsurprisingly got booed at Jubilee Service of Thanksgiving
When she’s not lavishing £840 a roll of other peoples’ money on chintzy Lulu Lytle wallpaper or munching on fancy nosh gifted in Lady Bamford’s £1,000 a pop “colossal Daylesford hampers,” Carrie Johnson enjoys chucking no doubt very expensive red wine on sofas, abusing staff at Chequers and dancing to ABBA with the lads she nicknames “the gays.”
Still allegedly a senior advisor to the ocean conservation charity Oceana – which was for many years funded in part by the convicted mucky madam sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell – and also head of communications for the controversial Aspinall Foundation, the missing for some months now baby mama to the PM finally reappeared together on Friday in London.
Unsurprisingly booed on arrival and departure from St Paul’s Cathedral by many and jeered at by others, the public subsequently suggested on social media that yesterday’s show of unity was nothing but to keep the press and public’s speculations at bay.
With more likely having done so without declaring their hands, we now have a Prime Minister in both personal and political turmoil. He is not a steady captain for the ship that is Great Britain and once the fun and festivities are over on Monday, it is time for ration and reason. It is now time to start the process of getting this country back to dignified political leadership as we move into Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s 71st year at the helm.
Pictured top – Yesterday, satirical site @Mockeree shared on Twitter: “Boris and Carrie Johnson appear together at the #PlatinumJubilee thanksgiving service, quashing rumours of a rift.”
LBC radio jockey James O’Brien suggested that the Prime Minister’s wife wore a “hat that shields her husband from her sight” whilst others argued the jeering at St Paul’s to be “judged best international PR move by [the] British public since 2016.”Others, amongst them Saif Islam, suggested the reaction was “not isolated” and added this was a “roar of rage from Middle of England.” Here is a premier who is truly loathed and detested and frankly here is a wazzock who should just have stayed at home.
As the Conservative leader and his current wife arrived at St Paul’s Cathedral on Friday, they were most certainly met with anything but adulation. Here instead the modern-day Marie Antoinette and her bumbling buffoon husband found themselves hearing the wrath of a public sick to their stomachs with a government that governs only for the benefit of themselves.
As the couple left the event, they were again met with jeering. It illustrated how hated they truly are and it is most certainly indication that it is time for them to go. With polls predicting a “very heavy loss” in the Wakefield by-election and the likelihood of the 54-letter threshold being reached on Monday, here is a leader on the verge of being toppled and here is one that the public most certainly will not miss. It is time for this national disgrace to do the decent thing on the final day of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s Jubilee and it is time for him to finally resign. Decent, true people everywhere would most certainly say cheers to that.
Members of the public cited the current government’s policies on Brexit and the Partygate scandal as amongst the reasons they jeered the current Conservative Prime Minister and his puppet mistress wife. They did not harbor dislike for the Queen, but they do harbour hatred for this country’s rotten government.
