Senator Wyden’s letter aims to scrutinize the Trump administration’s handling of Jeffrey Epstein’s financial relationships. The letter follows Bondi’s statement dismissing the existence of an Epstein “client list,” fueling suspicions of hidden information about his activities. Wyden’s tactic, despite the unlikelihood of DOJ action, serves to inform the public and expose failures in oversight. Specifically, the letter urges investigation of Epstein’s Treasury Department records, which Wyden’s office has been reviewing for years, including thousands of pages viewed privately in 2024.

Anthony Scaramucci, a former Trump White House communications director, doubts allegations of a Trump-Epstein connection, believing such evidence would have already surfaced. Instead, Scaramucci suspects that compromising material held by Vladimir Putin is the true vulnerability. He speculates this could be information gathered during Trump’s real estate career decades ago, explaining Trump’s deference to Putin despite the latter’s weakening global position. This “kompromat,” Scaramucci suggests, is far more damaging than previously speculated “pee tape” scenarios, forcing Trump’s subservient behavior toward Putin.

This article revisits a 2018 claim suggesting Russian leverage over Donald Trump, potentially dating back to a 1987 Moscow trip. The author’s initial assessment of Russian influence was around 10-20%, now raised to over 50% based on Trump’s subsequent pro-Russia stances and confirmation from a former KGB spy. While the full extent of this influence remains unknown, the author now believes that even definitive proof would have had limited impact on public opinion or Trump’s political standing, mirroring the muted reaction to previously confirmed Russian kompromat. Ultimately, Trump’s inherent weaknesses and incompetence undermined any significant leverage Russia may have held.
