Weve only just begun to see how far Epsteins influence reached into the science and technology communities, but what we know so far is disturbing. Harvard University, to which Epstein donated before his guilty plea in 2008, said it hadnt taken any of his money afterward. He found other ways to donate indirectly, though, including by giving $110,000 to a nonprofit run by Elisa New. (New, as it happens, is married to Larry Summers, the former president of Harvard who publicly wondered in 2005 if women were just innately not equipped for STEM careers.) Harvard professor Joscha Bach was also funded by Epstein, though that money came through the MIT Media Lab, where he was jointly appointed as a research fellow, according to Axios. Epstein gave money to the Hasty Pudding Institute of 1770, which supports three Harvard social clubs.
Epstein also had access to elite groups through the dinner parties where the rich and powerful rubbed shoulders. Among the attendees of a March 2011 dinner reported by BuzzFeed were Jeff Bezos, Sergey Brin, and Elon Musk - as well as Marissa Mayer, Anne Wojcicki, and former YouTube CEO Salar Kamangar. In the prestige racket, networks count. Epstein didnt just donate his own money; he could potentially make an introduction to more money. Epstein appeared to serve as an intermediary between the lab and other wealthy donors, soliciting millions of dollars in donations from individuals and organizations, including the technologist and philanthropist Bill Gates and the investor Leon Black, Farrow wrote in The New Yorker.
In 2010, after Epstein served his 18-month sentence, he hosted a dinner at his Upper East Side townhouse, Slates Daniel Engber reports. Among the attendees was super-agent John Brockman, founder of Edge.org, who was also Itos literary agent.

Closer to Mengele’s Fourth Reich.
Can’t help but wonder how much of this is part of a much larger conspiracy. Reads much more like a demonic plot to clone human bodies for demonic possession and lure fallen humans into thinking they are doing something good.
“How far does the blackmail go in influencing our govt?”
Dunno, the DNC won’t let me see their files OR the pakies that worked for Wasserman took’em all back to Pakistan ?
Great for you (both of you)!
While putting careers aside for families certainly impacted many women years ago, with more and more women remaining childless today there is simply no excuse for them to avoid the STEM fields - except they don’t want to put the work into it.
