Harvard to investigate Larry Summers’s Epstein ties as he exits OpenAI board

Rep. Jasmine Crockett accused Lee Zeldin, the Trump EPA Administrator, of accepting donations from an individual named Jeffrey Epstein. However, records indicate that the Epstein in question is not the notorious financier and convicted sex offender, leading to a clarification from Zeldin's camp.

The US Senate has passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which mandates the Justice Department to release all unclassified materials related to Jeffrey Epstein. The bill now awaits President Donald Trump's signature. Both Democrats and Republicans have praised the courage of Epstein survivors in bringing this issue to light.

Former Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson criticized President Trump for his treatment of female reporters, particularly during incidents where he reacted negatively to questions about his ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Carlson described Trump's behavior as 'despicable' in a post on social media, highlighting a pattern of disrespect towards women in journalism.

A Republican effort to censure Democratic Delegate Stacey Plaskett for her text exchanges with Jeffrey Epstein during a 2019 congressional hearing failed on the House floor. The motion, which aimed to formally reprimand Plaskett and remove her from the House intelligence committee, was rejected by a vote of 209 to 214. This incident has sparked accusations of a deal among party leaders to shield members from ethics controversies.

Donald Trump is set to sign a bill that will require the Justice Department to release more files related to Jeffrey Epstein, the deceased convicted sex offender. Initially opposing the release, Trump changed his stance after it became clear that the House would pass the legislation.

The Senate has approved legislation mandating the release of investigative files related to Jeffrey Epstein, following a near-unanimous vote in the House of Representatives. The House passed the bill with a vote of 427-1, and President Trump has indicated he will sign it after reversing his earlier opposition. This legislation aims to enhance transparency regarding Epstein's activities and the investigations surrounding him.

Larry Summers has resigned from the board of OpenAI following the release of emails exchanged with Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender. This decision comes shortly after Summers announced he would step back from public commitments amid growing criticism. Harvard University is also reviewing its ties with Summers in light of the controversy.

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin responded to claims made by Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett, who alleged that he received donations from an individual named Jeffrey Epstein. Zeldin refuted the assertion, stating that it was a 'totally different person.'
