Lawrence Summers wanted $1 million to fund an online poetry project his wife was developing. The former Treasury secretary and onetime Harvard University president turned to Jeffrey Epstein.

“I need small scale philanthropy advice. My life will be better if i raise $1m for Lisa,” Mr. Summers said in an email to Epstein in April 2014, referring to his wife, Elisa New, a Harvard professor. “Mostly it will go to make it a pbs series and for teacher training. Ideas?”

Epstein replied that they could meet in Cambridge, Mass. Mr. Summers invited him to dinner, according to a trove of documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. Two days later they made plans to meet at The Fireplace, a cozy restaurant in nearby Brookline, one of several meetings the two men scheduled that year.

In 2016, a nonprofit linked to Epstein donated $110,000 to Ms. New’s nonprofit, which develops video content about poetry, according to tax records.

Not behind a paywall at this time.

[Ann Archy]

He really ONLY associated with his fellow Jews. Wonder why?

[Apparatchik]

Gee, I wonder what movies they watched.

Lolita? Pretty Baby?

[SaveFerris]

[Ideas?]

Maybe a prostitution ring to blackmail world politicians?

A Global Initiative?

Nah.....that could never happen.

My wife has twenty/thirty old hand-knitted throw cushions she inherited from her mother, and we need about $10 million to establish a foundation to preserve, conserve, curate, study, and exhibit them.

Any suggestions?

Anyone?

He said Epstein convened people, including Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, to try to solve problems facing rich donors, such as how to make large gifts. Epstein told Mr. Marsh that Epstein was managing money for Mr. Gates, Mr. Marsh said.

We have the creepiest 'elites' in the world...

[Steven Tyler]

Seems the elites are extorting and blackmailing folks, washing the money through non-profits (Clinton Initiative) and using the saved taxes to enrich their lives

[SaveFerris]

And political influence by blackmail

[Deplorable American1776]

Woody Allen and Jeffery Epstein watched movies together? X rated movies? Child porn movies...

I don't want to know..

'Elites' are very often 'creepy' or otherwise flawed. IMHO this is because it's generally flawed and/or 'creepy' people who don't have much creativity or definitive skills (irrespective of whether they went to an 'elite' law school and still couldn't pass the Bar exam - like Hillary) but who have an absolute need to think of themselves as better/greater than. These are the types of people who will do anything deceitful or nefarious to feed their ego. The cream does not rise to the 'top' as often as feces floats to the top.

I hear Jewish men say Jewish sex is when you have to beg for 2 hours.
Not sure but it’s what I was told.
