I’m going to keep following the money with my Epstein investigation. That’s one of the best ways to find a paper trail and identify hard evidence of wrongdoing. There’s got to be real accountability, no matter how long it takes. More to come.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govMar 23(source)
Epstein used Leon Black’s money to pay for his trafficking operation. That’s already on the record -- Black admitted it. I’ve been investigating his relationship with Epstein for nearly 4 years and I have a lot more questions. I still haven't gotten satisfactory answers.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govMar 23(source)
There are a lot of rich and powerful people who enabled, funded and took part in Epstein’s crimes. Trump is protecting the Epstein class because he is part of the Epstein class. He says so himself.
Trump Yelled 'My Friends Will Get Hurt' at Marjorie Taylor Greene for Threatening to Name Epstein Abusers, She Claims

Zooming out, it’s clear that Epstein was the head of a major criminal enterprise. Sex trafficking, money laundering, probably drugs. Trump, Bondi and Blanche want to shut down all investigation and keep it quiet.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govMar 23(source)
There is a lot more to read here, including Black’s abuse of tax shelters and the possibility that he and Epstein’s lawyers conspired to violate U.S. tax laws.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govMar 23(source)
Epstein met with Russian government officials and Russian state-owned entities more than a dozen times between 2015 and 2017. Many of those meetings took place within hours of separate meetings between Epstein and Black.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govMar 23(source)
Documents also show Epstein was in contact with a prominent Russian government official and provided the location of a woman who was on Black’s payroll. Epstein asked for “suggestions” on how to deal with her.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govMar 23(source)
Black was paying Epstein like he was the CEO of a major Fortune 500 company. Why? Black was also paying millions of dollars to women -- including some connected to Epstein. It looks like hush money. Emails indicate Black paid millions of dollars to women using Epstein as a middleman.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govMar 23(source)
Black already employed the best tax and estate planning advisors in the country. He didn’t need Epstein’s advice, and he certainly didn’t have any reason to pay Epstein at rates several times greater than he was paying actual tax professionals.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govMar 23(source)
Black paid Epstein $170 million over just a few years in the 2010s. He’s claimed the payments were for tax advice, which doesn’t hold up at all.

Continuing Epstein Investigation, Wyden Questions Leon Black over New Revelations in Epstein Files, Appearance of “Hush Money” Payments and Surveillance of Women
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govMar 23(source)
Wall Street titan Leon Black was among Epstein’s primary sources of income. Their relationship went back to the 1990s, but Black flooded Epstein with cash in the years Epstein was a registered sex offender.

In the past six months of Trump’s Big Ugly Bill, fewer women and families are getting critical medical care, and many more are facing skyrocketing health costs. I’m partnering with @warren.senate.gov and @wyden.senate.gov to help expose how health care cuts endanger access to lifesaving care.
Closed clinics, canceled care: New data shows effects of One Big Beautiful Bill’s attack on Planned Parenthood
New data shared first with MS NOW shows nearly two dozen clinics closed and appointments have plummeted after congressional Republicans defunded Planned Parenthood.

Senator Mullin failed to demonstrate even a basic understanding of constitutional rights and due process. It is clear he would continue the abuses at DHS and support Stephen Miller and JD Vance’s violent policies. I voted no.
