1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,439
Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:08,679
Epstein Chronicles. According to Leon Black, his only contact with

3
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:13,480
Jeffrey Epstein was solely based on advice about financial matters,

4
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:17,480
and according to Black, he has no idea why anyone

5
00:00:17,519 --> 00:00:20,960
would think that he had anything to do with Jeffrey Epstein.

6
00:00:22,519 --> 00:00:26,359
But unfortunately for Leon Black, his whole entire narrative is

7
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,600
well trash. And that's because there's a ton of evidence

8
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,439
out there that him and Jeffrey Epstein were up to

9
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,479
some other shit. What that other shit is, I don't know.

10
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,079
But Leon Black most certainly has been incredibly accused multiple

11
00:00:41,119 --> 00:00:44,840
times by women who then went on to say that

12
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,439
they were intimidated by Leon Black and his people because

13
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:53,039
they filed a lawsuit against him. And now, due to

14
00:00:53,079 --> 00:00:55,399
the release of the Epstein files or the ones that

15
00:00:55,439 --> 00:00:59,840
we've seen, we're learning that Leon Black was colluding with

16
00:01:00,039 --> 00:01:04,400
Epstein and Brad Karp from Paul Weiss on how to

17
00:01:04,439 --> 00:01:08,239
silence and destroy the sexual harassment accusers according to a

18
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:12,079
new lawsuit. And look, this is the kind of shit

19
00:01:12,159 --> 00:01:16,040
that people like Leon Black do. And then you have

20
00:01:16,079 --> 00:01:18,159
people that come out and run cover for people like

21
00:01:18,239 --> 00:01:23,280
Leon Black with ridiculous narratives about people's reputations, like we're

22
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,640
talking about the local janitor, Like we're not talking about

23
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,159
one of the most powerful, richest men in the world.

24
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:35,239
But sure feel good about yourself defending people like that. Meanwhile,

25
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,920
the evidence all points to people like Leon Black being

26
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,680
exactly what we think he is. So today we have

27
00:01:42,719 --> 00:01:45,799
an article from the New York Post and the headline

28
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,200
leon Black allegedly colluded with Epstein, Paul Wi's head to

29
00:01:50,439 --> 00:01:55,840
silence and destroy accusers. According to a lawsuit, this article

30
00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:02,560
was authored by Peter Senza Meche. Leon Black allegedly colluded

31
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,159
with Jeffrey Epstein in former Paul Weiss chair Brad Karp

32
00:02:06,439 --> 00:02:10,199
on how to silence and destroy sexual harassment accusers. A

33
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,680
new lawsuit claims law firm Whigdor LLP accused the Apollo

34
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,560
Global Management co founder of forming a brain trust with

35
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,680
Epstein and Karp that spent considerable time devising ways to

36
00:02:21,759 --> 00:02:26,000
surveil and retaliate a Russian model who accused Black of

37
00:02:26,039 --> 00:02:29,599
sexual abuse. According to the suit, and this is the

38
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:35,680
same person, missus guzell Ganieva, that Jeffrey Epstein reached out

39
00:02:35,719 --> 00:02:39,560
to Russia to get help with. Remember we were talking

40
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,439
about that, Well, this is that story and this is

41
00:02:42,479 --> 00:02:45,280
an add on to it. The firm founded by Douglas

42
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,680
Wigdor represented the model guzell Ganieva, whose lawsuit against Black

43
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,639
was dismissed by a judge in twenty twenty three. And

44
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,879
I'm sure everything was on the up and up. Guys

45
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,639
like Leon Black have no pull in the legal system.

46
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,199
Then you have a girl like guzel Ganieva, a woman

47
00:03:03,719 --> 00:03:08,080
who is from Russia, who certainly doesn't have the contact

48
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:12,680
that Leon Black has. And then you add to that

49
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,840
that Jeffrey Epstein's reaching out to Russia to somebody that's

50
00:03:16,039 --> 00:03:20,240
friendly with Putin, somebody that went to FSB school to

51
00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:22,960
try and rein her in. But sure, there was no

52
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,520
kind of intimidation whatsoever, I'm sure of it. That's not

53
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:32,439
how the Russians roll. The suit, filed in Manhattan Supreme

54
00:03:32,439 --> 00:03:35,479
Court on Monday, cites emails from the Department of Justice

55
00:03:35,479 --> 00:03:40,159
recent dump of files related to dead pedophile Epstein. If

56
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,159
Leon decides enough is enough, Epstein asked in August twenty

57
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,280
fifteen email to Karp, can you have her arrested for extortion?

58
00:03:47,719 --> 00:03:53,039
Hi bail, maybe deportation My strong belief is that the

59
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,599
answer is yes. Karp allegedly replied, the suit states, and

60
00:03:56,639 --> 00:04:01,039
then suggested a former top federal prosecutor who recently joined

61
00:04:01,039 --> 00:04:04,879
his firm could file the criminal referral. Ah, yeah, this

62
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,120
is all on the up and up, folks. Leon Black

63
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,800
is a much malign character, and how dare you attack

64
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:19,000
his fantastic reputation. You have questions about what's going on here?

65
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,399
What are you in a satanic panic? What are you

66
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,519
some kind of moralist? How dare you care that people

67
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,560
like Leon Black are abusing people allegedly and then paying

68
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,879
their way out of it. How dare you care about

69
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,199
something like that? In another exchange included in the filing,

70
00:04:35,319 --> 00:04:38,480
Epstein suggested the legal team try to revoke er visa,

71
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,399
to which Karp allegedly replied, both good ideas will work

72
00:04:42,439 --> 00:04:45,040
on this boy. I bet Brad Karp really feels good

73
00:04:45,079 --> 00:04:48,439
about himself. Huh, helping out one of the richest men

74
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:52,959
in the world go after some woman who he abused allegedly.

75
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:59,040
Real tough guy shit here, huh. Other emails sent that

76
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,519
same day revealed that Carp was allegedly overseeing a surveillance

77
00:05:02,519 --> 00:05:06,519
effort against Ganieva, detailing her movements and license plate numbers.

78
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,879
According to the suit, The suit's main claims surround alleged

79
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:16,040
retaliatory lawsuits Black filed against wigdor As, the firm represented

80
00:05:16,079 --> 00:05:19,959
Ganieva and Sherry Pearson, who accused the finance big Wig

81
00:05:20,199 --> 00:05:24,120
in twenty twenty two of rapinger at Epstein's Manhattan townhouse.

82
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,839
And the way they went after these women is just unbelievable.

83
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,959
Private investigators going to see their friends, their family talking

84
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,959
trash about them, you name it. But I'm sure that's

85
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,399
okay too, right, no big deal, because we got to

86
00:05:40,399 --> 00:05:45,079
worry about Leon Black's reputation, right, I mean, God forbid,

87
00:05:46,199 --> 00:05:49,160
Leon Black is outed as the dirt bag that he is.

88
00:05:51,439 --> 00:05:53,000
Do you know how much money this dude has paid

89
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,680
out in relation to his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and

90
00:05:56,759 --> 00:05:59,959
the shit that he was allegedly up to. This man

91
00:06:00,199 --> 00:06:05,000
paid the USVII more money than Jeffrey Epstein's whole entire foundation,

92
00:06:05,199 --> 00:06:08,439
the whole fund paid out to the survivors in total.

93
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,959
Chew on that shift for a minute, But yeah, these

94
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,199
women are the problem. What a bunch of gold diggers,

95
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,959
These women who were girls, A lot of them when

96
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,720
they were abused, the vast majority of them didn't even

97
00:06:24,759 --> 00:06:30,079
walk away with seven figures. Now, imagine being fourteen, fifteen

98
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,800
years old getting abused by some dirtbag son of a

99
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:38,839
bitch like Jeffrey Epstein and that vile skuffuzza Gleayne Maxwell,

100
00:06:39,759 --> 00:06:43,120
and then finding out that the Virgin Islands is getting

101
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,360
more money than you are. You want to talk about

102
00:06:46,399 --> 00:06:49,360
getting launched into orbit. I would have never shut up

103
00:06:49,399 --> 00:06:54,439
about it. It is unbelievable to me. And there are

104
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,519
still people out here that think Leon Black deserves the

105
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,199
benefit of the doubt. I just don't understand it, because

106
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,000
people like this, they don't deserve the benefit of the

107
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,639
doubt in my opinion. In fact, if I was running

108
00:07:07,639 --> 00:07:11,240
the world, or the country or the DOJ, Leon Black

109
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,639
would already be indicted. Now does that mean I'd find

110
00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:16,720
them guilty and send them to prison. I don't know.

111
00:07:17,319 --> 00:07:21,000
We'd have to have a trial, right an investigation, But

112
00:07:21,199 --> 00:07:25,439
that's never occurred, has it? And if you're wondering why

113
00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:29,000
this is it? When you hire these lawyers, when you

114
00:07:29,079 --> 00:07:31,439
hire these big wigs, you're not just hiring them for

115
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,519
what they do in the courtroom. You're hiring them for

116
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,439
what they do outside of the courtroom, the kind of

117
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,720
relationships they have, what they can do for you as

118
00:07:40,759 --> 00:07:44,759
far as you know, bridging gaps mens defences and making

119
00:07:44,759 --> 00:07:48,600
things move, and of course who are they're friends with.

120
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,319
And Jeffrey Epstein really understood how to use the legal

121
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:56,959
system to his benefit, and we see it time and

122
00:07:56,959 --> 00:08:03,480
time again. Suits accusing the firm of malicious prosecution, racketeering,

123
00:08:03,639 --> 00:08:09,319
and defamation were all dismissed by local and federal courts. Well, yeah,

124
00:08:09,399 --> 00:08:13,199
because none of that was happening. And it's my opinion

125
00:08:14,439 --> 00:08:18,160
that both of those women were abused by Leon Black.

126
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,120
Now again that's my opinion. I wasn't there. I don't know,

127
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,720
I didn't see it happen. But when you start breaking

128
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,240
down all the evidence and looking at everything we've been

129
00:08:27,279 --> 00:08:32,320
told and all of the contemporaneous documentation, well it doesn't

130
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,679
take that big of a leap to cross that gap.

131
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,679
So in my opinion, I believe what these women are saying,

132
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:42,799
and I think the evidence backs it up, especially considering

133
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:48,039
how much money this jack off paid out. Black's attempting

134
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,120
to weaponize the civil justice system to silence and destroy

135
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,120
those who seek to hold him to account. For alleged

136
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:59,200
sexual assault and rape Wigdor suit, reads Black's attorneys, who's

137
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,519
an Estrich called the suit another bogus attempt by Whigdor

138
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:07,399
to attack mister Black under false pretenses. Yeah, mister Black

139
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,759
is the victim here of folks, don't you know. Leon Black,

140
00:09:10,919 --> 00:09:13,679
whose son Ben Black, by the way, is part of

141
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,080
the Trump administration, is the real victim. The owner of

142
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:22,080
Apollo Global, the man with more money than Scrooge McDuck himself.

143
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,559
He's the victim. Not these girls, not the girl who

144
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,399
had a mosaic down syndrome who he allegedly abused, Not

145
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,720
Guzelle Ganieva, who he was definitely having a relationship with,

146
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,919
But him, He's the victim. And you know what, while

147
00:09:37,919 --> 00:09:40,120
I'm at it, let's add his wife to victim status

148
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,159
as well, considering he cheated on her when she was sick.

149
00:09:44,519 --> 00:09:47,840
Hell of a guy that Leon Black. Pearson withdrew her

150
00:09:47,919 --> 00:09:51,159
suit in twenty twenty four. Ganieva fired Whigdor while her

151
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,879
case was still active. Epstein and Black had long financial ties,

152
00:09:55,919 --> 00:09:59,320
with the convicted sex offender, demanding millions from the financier

153
00:09:59,519 --> 00:10:05,480
as he faild arrested. Huh what what kind of nonsense

154
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,840
is that these dudes were locked and loaded. He didn't

155
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,960
have to demand anything from Leon Black. Leon Black was

156
00:10:12,039 --> 00:10:16,799
ready willing and more than receptive to helping Epstein out.

157
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:22,279
Representative for Karp and Wigdor did not respond for comment. Well,

158
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,879
they won't. It's an ongoing legal affair, so they're not

159
00:10:24,879 --> 00:10:28,120
going to say anything about it. But I don't know

160
00:10:28,159 --> 00:10:31,080
how much more evidence we need to see that behind

161
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:36,039
the scenes, the pressure was ratcheted up to eleven And

162
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,960
when you're getting pressured from every side by high profile

163
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,440
people like this, that's a lot to deal with for

164
00:10:41,519 --> 00:10:48,440
somebody like Sherry Pearson, like Guzel Ganieva or anybody. So

165
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,799
you need to tell me that you just totally believe

166
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,480
there was no merit to what they were saying, and

167
00:10:53,519 --> 00:10:56,399
that the suits were just dropped by them because there

168
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,799
was no valid path to victory. I'm sorry, I don't

169
00:10:59,799 --> 00:11:04,159
believe that. My opinion is they were pressed to drop

170
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,639
those suits, and we know for a fact that Guzelle

171
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,759
was forced to sign an NDA. Now I'm not too

172
00:11:09,759 --> 00:11:14,320
sure about Cherry, but Guzelle for sure. So the whole

173
00:11:14,399 --> 00:11:19,399
Leon Black story is just beginning. And if you're wondering

174
00:11:19,399 --> 00:11:21,879
why I don't care about the reputations of people like

175
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:26,080
Leon Black, like Less Wetsner, like Lenn Dubin. Well, this

176
00:11:26,279 --> 00:11:30,919
is it. You're not gonna cry victim and then play bully.

177
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,480
That ship might work with some of these goofballs out there,

178
00:11:33,519 --> 00:11:36,000
but it's not gonna work around here. And my advice

179
00:11:36,039 --> 00:11:38,840
to Leon Black is to get himself a nice rain

180
00:11:38,919 --> 00:11:45,720
code because this Maelstron has only just begun. All the

181
00:11:45,759 --> 00:11:48,799
