seem to be throwing up are foreign nationals, both British.
They are both as guilty as fk, but it really does feel like the Trump DOJ is throwing out these two as the sacrificial lambs to keep other names out of the spotlight
Why is it, that the only two names the Epstein files on 13:32 - Feb 4 by Illinoisblue
Local news for local people innit? Nobody in the USA has a clue who Peter Mandelson is .
But many United States citizens suffered as a result of the 2008 banking crisis (not that Mandelson was completely responsible for that, but it seems he played a much bigger part than anyone apart from Epstein realised at the time.)
There are thousands of names in the files. Pretty much anybody who had business or personal interactions with Epstein.
But those two probably have the most prominence for a British audience, with Andrew seemingly up to his neck in the dodgy stuff that went on, but Mandleson (and Sarah Ferguson) more on the begging side.

Depends what you read. French and Slovakian government ministers named. Other nationalities named. The likes of Andrew are the headline grabbers.
Again, more foreign nationals.
It's almost as though wealthy and powerful American citizen Jeffery Epstein didn't like hanging out with any other wealthy and powerful American men. Just foreign types.
'The files show Crystal Palace investor Josh Harris remained in contact with Epstein via email and phone calls for many years after his conviction, including joining him for a breakfast meeting in 2013 after which he sent an email saying "thank you for inviting me".
Harris - whose private equity firm Apollo Global Management also owns NBA team the Philadelphia 76ers, NHL team New Jersey Devils, and the NFL team Washington Commanders - also contacted Epstein in 2016, saying he was "happy to catch up" at some point in the future.
A spokesperson for Harris said: "Josh Harris never had an independent relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Harris sought to prevent Epstein's attempts to develop a corporate relationship with Apollo. As these emails indicate, Harris sought to avoid meeting with Epstein, cancelling meetings and having others return his calls."
Emails sent to Epstein also appear to show he conducted two meetings with Todd Boehly - now co-owner and chairman of Chelsea - in 2011, three years after Epstein's conviction.
The emails suggest Epstein wanted to be introduced to Boehly, who at the time was co-owner of baseball team the Los Angeles Dodgers, and a managing partner at global asset management firm Guggenheim Partners.
Neither Boehly nor Chelsea have made a public comment.
Celtic owner Dermot Desmond was mentioned twice in emails sent to Epstein in 2010 on behalf of golf resort developer Gerald G Barton.
In the messages, Epstein was told by somebody writing on behalf of Barton that Irish billionaire Desmond - a golf resort owner - was willing to provide millions of dollars to help co-fund golf developments.
BBC Sport has contacted Celtic for a response from Desmond.'

And from the world of football:

Clinton's right hand man on Belfast Agreement. This no 'wrongdoing' word thats being used in the news is a bit rich too, almost implies that the people in power who continuing to deal with Epstein after his coviction were doing nothing wrong! Perhaps nothing illegal would be more appropriate.

WOW FFS LOL
It is probably deluded of me to think football managers could be motivated by ethics but Rodgers leaves Celtic of his own accord, Maresca leaves Chelsea in a similar fashion and now Glassner wants away from Palace - makes you wonder.
Reform’s Treasurer and former Tory donor Nick Candy is popping up today. In dozens of the files apparently according to the National (paywall by the looks of it, but it gives the gist in the opening sentences).
Presumably another ‘no wrongdoing’ case, yet he maintained links post convictions and was connecting Farage to Musk too.
It’s all a rich boys power play. They won’t care if Epstein was a paedo sex trafficker as long as they got money/power/influence out of the relationship. They’re very rich but morally bankrupt.

You'll get a clearer idea about that when they move to the Middle East in order to bring good football to the region.

'Was Jeffrey Epstein a Russian asset? published at 14:31 14:31
Frank Gardner Security correspondent
That's the question being asked by some in the wake of the latest revelations.
Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk certainly has his suspicions. He's ordered a taskforce to be set up to examine the late convicted paedophile's links with Russia and what impact they could have on Poland.
The released files contain 1,056 mentions of Vladimir Putin and more than 9,000 references to Moscow.
Epstein is believed to have held meetings with Russian officials, including Putin, and young Russian women were among those he procured for his rich and famous friends.
None of which amounts to evidence that he spied for Moscow.
Yet despite his flamboyant lifestyle, much of Epstein’s modus operandi followed a well-established Kremlin playbook.
The photographs and records he kept of who stayed at his properties and, more damagingly, who accepted his offers of young women he procured for them, amounted to what is known in Russian as "kompromat" – compromising material potentially of use for blackmail.
The Kremlin is certainly gloating over the Epstein scandal.
But if evidence were to emerge that his kompromat had been somehow finding its way to Moscow then this whole saga will get a great deal more sinister.'
