🚨 EXPLOSIVE NEW investigation: We uncovered previously undisclosed details about an 18-month money laundering investigation into Jeffrey Epstein that took place alongside the 2007 sex crimes probe, according to emails obtained from Epstein's personal Yahoo account 🎁 www.bloomberg.com/features/202...
Jeffrey Epstein Went to War Over Money Laundering Probe in 2007 Sex Case
Federal prosecutors opened a financial-crimes investigation into Jeffrey Epstein in 2007 amid their larger sex-trafficking probe. The financier and his legal team waged a war against them, his emails ...

More big news: the Senate just passed my bipartisan resolution to end Trump's global tariffs. This is a huge win and shows how unpopular Trump's tariffs really are. Now it's time for Mike Johnson to abandon his 6 week vacation and get this passed in the House.

Some more good news for Portland. The question now remains how many more taxpayer dollars will Donald Trump waste on his failing lawsuits to try and fulfill his authoritarian fantasies. I'll keep working to defend the rights and values of every single Oregonian.
9th Circuit grants request to re-hear appeal of order blocking National Guard from Portland
A three-judge panel overturned the order blocking Trump from sending the National Guard to Portland, but Oregon asked for the appeal to be reheard by a larger panel.

The Senate just passed our bipartisan resolution to END Trump's tariffs on Brazil. Tonight's vote sends a clear message that Trump's tariffs are damaging and unpopular. Now it's time for the House to do its job and get this passed to bring costs down.

Proud to support Senator Jeff Merkley on the floor today as he sounds the alarm on Trump's creeping authoritarianism. My family fled Nazi Germany. We know a thing or two about what happens next.

A lot of wealthy and powerful people helped Epstein fund his sex trafficking operation. The American people deserve to know who they are. Secretary Bessent, like his boss, is covering it up. I’m going to keep following the money. Stay tuned.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govOct 20(source)
Jamie Dimon really thinks Congress and the American people will believe that only one top exec at his multi-billion dollar bank enabled Epstein. Be serious. Today I’m giving Dimon and JPMC another chance to explain why they appeared to enable Epstein's trafficking for years.

With JPMorgan Chase Dodging Epstein Inquiry, Wyden Investigation Drills Down On Bank Executives’ Unexplained Conduct

Here’s the other big problem: Treasury Secretary Bessent is sitting on a massive Epstein file containing thousands more bank documents that would help us continue to follow the money through his sex trafficking ring.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govOct 20(source)
It’s laughable for JMPC to try to lay its whole Epstein relationship off on a former employee. The evidence indicates that the bank’s ties with Epstein, and the mistakes it made, went all the way to the top.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govOct 20(source)
The American people deserve to know what JPMC’s role is here. Instead, Jamie Dimon blew off my questions, claiming that one employee was singlehandedly responsible for maintaining the bank’s ties to Epstein:

Public reporting, which JPMC has not disputed, shows that executives including the head of JPMC’s private bank for the ultra-wealthy, were warned repeatedly about Epstein but kept him on as a client.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govOct 20(source)
Banks are required by law to flag suspicious transactions right away so law enforcement can stop monsters like Epstein. JPMC is one of several banks that willingly chose not to alert law enforcement about Epstein's money laundering and trafficking payments.
Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.govOct 20(source)
Another mystery: By 2013 concerns over Epstein's criminal activity boiled over at JPMC. Top execs finally agreed to ditch him as a client. They then waited SIX YEARS to flag his suspicious transactions to FinCEN, even though federal law requires they be flagged right away.
