"Epstein's Connections: JPMorgan, Obama White House, and Trump's Casino"

Court filings reveal that Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex predator, facilitated a client relationship between former Obama White House counsel Kathryn Ruemmler and JPMorgan Chase in February 2019, just months before his arrest on federal child sex trafficking charges. Epstein's personal assistant touted Ruemmler as an ideal customer to JPMorgan, which warmly embraced the suggestion. This occurred despite JPMorgan having fired Epstein as a client years earlier due to internal red flags. The connection between Ruemmler and Epstein was detailed in a court filing by the U.S. Virgin Islands, which is suing JPMorgan for allegedly enabling and benefiting from Epstein's sex trafficking activities. JPMorgan denies any wrongdoing and is set to go to trial in October.
