Mega Edition:  Les Wexner And His Reign At The Top (10/12/25)

Mega Edition: Les Wexner And His Reign At The Top (10/12/25)

Les Wexner earned the nickname “King of Columbus” because of the immense economic, cultural, and political footprint he left on the city of Columbus, Ohio. As the founder of The Limited in 1963, which later became L Brands, Wexner transformed a single women’s clothing store into a retail juggernaut that included brands like Victoria’s Secret, Bath & Body Works, and Express. His success generated enormous wealth, much of which he funneled back into his hometown through philanthropy, real estate development, and civic influence. Wexner’s donations helped shape major institutions, including Ohio State University and the Columbus Foundation, while entire areas of Columbus’ expansion were tied to his investments and leadership. This combination of business dominance and local control made him, for decades, the city’s unofficial monarch — the “King of Columbus.”


In recent years, however, Les Wexner has steadily reduced his financial footprint in L Brands, the company that built his empire. By mid-2021, he had sold off a massive portion of his holdings — unloading approximately $2.7 billion worth of stock — leaving him with only about a 2 percent stake in the company he once commanded. The sales came amid L Brands’ restructuring and the eventual separation of Victoria’s Secret and Bath & Body Works into standalone companies. With those divestments, Wexner’s era as a retail titan effectively closed, signaling a retreat from the empire he had ruled for nearly six decades.

CIA Kompromat 101: Jeffrey Epstein and the CIA’s Culture of Compromise (Part 3) (8/21/25)

CIA Kompromat 101: Jeffrey Epstein and the CIA’s Culture of Compromise (Part 3) (8/21/25)

Jeffrey Epstein’s life makes little sense when viewed through the lens of a rogue financier or even a Mossad agent, but it becomes coherent when understood as the creation of the CIA. From his early placement at the Dalton School by Donald Barr, to his sudden leap into finance at Bear Stearns, to his inexplicable relationship with Leslie Wexner, Epstein’s career looks less like chance and more like cultivation. His fortune was smoke and mirrors, likely bolstered by covert funding, and his so-called philanthropy in genetics and AI neatly overlapped with U.S. intelligence interests. His homes wired with cameras, his blackmail operations ensnaring politicians, scientists, and billionaires, and his sweetheart deal in Florida that shielded not just him but his co-conspirators—all of it suggests he was protected because he was too valuable to the intelligence state to lose.While Mossad connections through Ghislaine Maxwell cannot be denied, foreign services couldn’t have orchestrated the decades-long media suppression, the unprecedented non-prosecution agreement, or the circumstances of Epstein’s death in federal custody. Only U.S. intelligence had the power to build and protect him, then silence him when he became a liability. Epstein was not simply a predator; he was a CIA instrument of blackmail and control, designed to compromise America’s own elites and keep them in line. His death was not the end of a scandal—it was the final act of a cleanup operation, ensuring that the files, tapes, and evidence he gathered would never see daylight, and leaving the public with a scapegoat narrative while the machinery of secrecy rolled on.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein And His Ties To The CIA Are Exposed By His Former Bodyguard (8/21/25)

Jeffrey Epstein And His Ties To The CIA Are Exposed By His Former Bodyguard (8/21/25)

In an interview for her podcast series Broken: Jeffrey Epstein, journalist Tara Palmeri recounts a conversation Brad Edwards—who represented several of Epstein’s victims—had with Igor Zinoviev, Epstein’s bodyguard of approximately five years. Edwards described how Zinoviev issued a chilling warning: “‘You don't know who you're messing with and you need to be really careful. You are on Jeffrey's radar… you don't want to be on Jeffrey's radar’,” to which Edwards asked, “Who am I messing with?” Zinoviev quietly responded with three letters: “C‑I‑A.”Digging deeper, Palmeri reports that, according to Edwards, Zinoviev said that in 2008—while Epstein was serving his work‑release sentence—he was sent to the CIA headquarters in Virginia. Allegedly, Epstein attended some kind of private class there as the only civilian, during which he was handed a book containing a handwritten note. Zinoviev said he was instructed not to read it, only to deliver it to Epstein behind bars. The nature of the message, and any follow‑up, remains unclear.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein Was 'Protected' By CIA and Trump, Former Bodyguard ClaimsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Morning Update:   Judge Berman Denies The DOJ's Request To Unseal Maxwell Grand Jury Documents (8/21/25)

Morning Update: Judge Berman Denies The DOJ's Request To Unseal Maxwell Grand Jury Documents (8/21/25)

The third judge has now denied the Trump administration’s request to release Epstein’s grand jury documents, and while it’s being spun as a setback, the truth is the administration knew this was coming all along. Grand jury materials are sealed by design, and no court was going to break decades of precedent. The request was never about actually getting those documents—it was about making a move that was guaranteed to fail, so the administration could later point to the denial as proof that the system had tied their hands. In other words, the loss was baked into the strategy from the start.Now the denial has become the centerpiece of a carefully scripted narrative. The administration and its allies are out in force, claiming they sought transparency only to be blocked by the courts, painting themselves as victims of a cover-up. But the truth is, if they truly wanted the Epstein files exposed, there were other levers of power they could have pulled. Instead, they opted for a performative stunt designed to fail, knowing the denial would hand them a scapegoat. It’s political theater masquerading as justice, and while the spin benefits them, the victims remain forgotten and the truth stays buried.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Judge declines to unseal grand jury material in Jeffrey Epstein case - CBS NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Stacey Plaskett Is Ordered To Stand Trial  For Her  Alleged Role In Epstein's Enterprise  (8/21/25)

Stacey Plaskett Is Ordered To Stand Trial For Her Alleged Role In Epstein's Enterprise (8/21/25)

In a March 2025 ruling, U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian dismissed nearly all claims against every defendant except Congresswoman Stacey Plaskett, thereby ordering the case to proceed to trial against her in her individual capacity. The court found that Plaskett’s conduct—including soliciting campaign contributions from Jeffrey Epstein at his New York residence, accepting loans and political support, and approving substantial tax breaks for his businesses—created sufficient ties to New York to establish personal jurisdiction under the state's long-arm statute. Consequently, Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) and negligence claims against her were allowed to move forward, while related claims against other Virgin Islands officials were dismissed on jurisdictional and legal grounds.The judge also rejected the plaintiffs’ request for jurisdictional discovery, concluding they had failed to make a prima facie showing to justify it. With all other defendants out of the picture, Plaskett stands as the sole defendant facing trial in this high-profile case. The court further invited motions from both sides regarding venue transfers and potential defenses such as immunity, providing a clear path for the next legal phase.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.610915.202.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition:  Stacey Plaskett's Rule 11 Motion Is Denied And A Look At Her Deposition (8/21/25)

Mega Edition: Stacey Plaskett's Rule 11 Motion Is Denied And A Look At Her Deposition (8/21/25)

In July 2024, Delegate Stacey Plaskett filed a lawsuit under Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure seeking sanctions against the attorney representing six survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse. Plaskett argued that the amended lawsuit against her was frivolously filed, lacked any factual or legal foundation, and was intended to harass rather than pursue a legitimate legal claim. She sought sanctions to penalize and deter what she viewed as a baseless and politically motivated suit.However, the court denied her Rule 11 motion, concluding that the survivors’ filing was neither frivolous nor made for improper purposes. The ruling underscored that the suit was grounded in sufficient factual and legal claims, and that the plaintiffs’ allegations merited judicial consideration rather than sanctions. In essence, the denial affirmed that the litigation could proceed on substantive grounds.Also....In the released segment of her May 9, 2023 deposition, Stacey Plaskett was pressed on her awareness of Jeffrey Epstein’s role in the Virgin Islands and the extent of his influence with local officials and institutions. The questioning focused on whether she had knowledge of Epstein’s financial relationships, his political donations, or his contacts with Virgin Islands leadership during the period when he was operating in the territory. Plaskett largely distanced herself from Epstein, stating that she had no direct involvement with him and little knowledge of his activities beyond what was publicly known.Attorneys also asked Plaskett about government oversight, her interactions with agencies connected to Epstein’s business holdings, and whether she had ever received benefits, contributions, or favors traceable to Epstein or his companies. In the available transcript, she denied having such connections and emphasized that she was not involved in decisions related to Epstein’s finances or residency. While limited to roughly 25 pages, the deposition underscores how central Virgin Islands political figures were to JPMorgan’s defense and the USVI’s allegations—whether officials ignored red flags about Epstein or knowingly permitted him to operate.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Stacey Plaskett And Her Motion For Rule 11 Sanctions Against The Epstein Survivors (8/20/25)

Congresswoman Stacey Plaskett, the Delegate from the U.S. Virgin Islands, became the lone remaining defendant in a civil case filed by six survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse after the court dismissed the claims against other parties. The survivors alleged that Plaskett was complicit in Epstein’s sex trafficking operation, accusations that she forcefully denied. In April 2025, a second amended complaint reiterated the charges, to which Plaskett responded by filing a motion to dismiss, calling the claims baseless and defamatory. She has consistently framed the lawsuit as politically motivated and lacking in legal merit.Prior to this, in July 2024, Plaskett filed a motion under Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure seeking sanctions against the survivors’ attorney. Rule 11 motions are designed to punish parties or lawyers for filing frivolous, unfounded, or harassing litigation. Plaskett argued that the case against her was precisely that.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.610915.127.0.pdf (courtlistener.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
