The woman Larry Summers asked for advice on how to get “horizontal” with in emails to Jeffrey Epstein is a high-flying economist, The Post can reveal.

The ex-Treasury Secretary was referring to Chinese macro-economist Keyu Jin, 43 — then a tenured London School of Economics professor and Harvard graduate — and daughter of a top Chinese associate of President Xi Jinping.

In several messages from 2018 and 2019, married former Harvard president Summers, 70, confided in his “wing man” Epstein about a woman he was chasing and delivered blow-by-blow updates of his pursuit.

Jin Keyu speaking at the World Economic Forum 2025. 10 Keyu Jin is now a professor at a Hong Kong university. ZUMAPRESS.com Throughout their correspondence, Summers and Epstein referred to the woman as “peril” — never using her name in messages, but he also forwarded some of her emails for commentary, in which Jin’s name is unredacted

In one such exchange, Summers asked Epstein whether it was “meaningful” to talk about the probability of “my getting horizontal w peril”.

Epstein went on to suggest the probability of Summers ending up in bed with her was “0,” then added: “she is never ever going to find another Larry summers. Probability ZERO.”

People speculated online that the nickname is drawn from the racist “yellow peril” trope of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which was used to stoke fear that Asian immigrants — especially Chinese and Japanese people — were a danger to Westerners.

Civil-rights attorney Alejandra Caraballo, a clinical instructor at Harvard Law School’s Cyberlaw Clinic, described the exchanges as “absolutely disgusting” and wrote online “Larry Summers needs to resign or be pushed out of Harvard”.

Summers announced Monday that he will step back from public commitments at the university, unclear if he will remain teaching there.

Summers said it was part of an effort “to rebuild trust and repair relationships with the people closest to me.”

So waiting a decade to "be sorry" is believable? No sale.

I bet if Trump was the subject of this post, you’d be all ears & screaming for his resignation.

And the Epstein truths start coming out to ruin politicians, famous people and captains of industry.

Sunshine cleanses.

Saw the Dr. Steve Turley YouTube video about it last night. Asking Dating advice from Jeffery Epstein is like asking the Clintons advice on marriage. 😀

Why everybody, including this POS reporter Megan Palin, thinks that reading and publishing the content of private emails is OK? Is it anybody’s business to discuss Larry Summers’ libido? In a newspaper?

Chinese macro-economist Keyu Jin, 43 — then a tenured London School of Economics professor and Harvard graduate

A trifecta of red flags. ESPECIALLY the LSE.

“Not our business”

Only an AI could believe that.

Real humans love gossip and scandal.

You flunked the Turing test.

Lol.
