Jeffrey Epstein built his empire by attaching himself like a parasite to powerful men, and Sergey Brin’s name is one of the more uncomfortable ones that has surfaced in Epstein’s growing constellation of elite associations. Epstein thrived by weaponizing proximity — offering introductions, access, and financial positioning in exchange for legitimacy and leverage — and he used every billionaire in his orbit as a form of social currency. The fact that Epstein allegedly helped steer Brin’s wealth management relationships and sought to use Brin’s name to bolster his credibility with major institutions speaks to Epstein’s talent for manipulating powerful people as shields. Whether they fully understood what he was or simply enjoyed the benefits of being catered to by a fixer, the reality is that Epstein needed names like Sergey Brin to maintain the illusion that he was a respected financier instead of a predatory criminal running a protection racket in plain sight.
The troubling allegations that Brin and his then-partner vacationed on Epstein’s private island — a location synonymous with trafficking and abuse — raise deeply uncomfortable questions about how normalized Epstein had become among the ultra-wealthy. These billionaires claim ignorance now, but how many times can a person be surrounded by red flags before “I didn’t know” stops being believable? It’s not a crime to be socially or financially connected to Epstein, but the optics are horrific, and the silence from Silicon Valley only fuels suspicion. If Epstein truly acted as a power broker for figures like Brin, then the world deserves to know how deep those ties went — not because the public is searching for guilt by association, but because every unanswered question feeds the stench of complicity and cover-up that defines the entire Epstein saga.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
What's up everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein chronicles.
New emails are revealing that JP Morgan was working with
Jeffrey Epstein to try and lure Google co founder Sir
Jay Brinn as a client. Now, ask yourselves, why would
JP Morgan need Jeffrey Epstein to be the middleman to
(00:21):
get somebody like Serjay Brinn on board? Don't you think
that Serjay Brinn and his bank account says everything you
need to know about the dude if you're JP Morgan.
So where the fuck does Jeffrey Epstein fit in? And
how come this idiot pops up every single time we're
talking about this reprehensible financial institution. Today's article is from
(00:44):
the New York Post and the headline email show JP
Morgan working with Jeffrey Epstein to lure Google co founder
Sir Jay Brinn as a client, according to court documents.
And remember all of this stuff is from court documents. Now,
it's not some Yahoo on Twitter talking nonsense, or your
(01:04):
cousin Joe telling you about a Reddit post. This is
stuff that has been said now in open court, and
that carries a lot more weight with me than innuendo
or rumor. The author of this article is Shannon Thaylor.
Newly revealed emails shed freshlight on JP Morgan's cozy ties
(01:24):
with Jeffrey Epstein, suggesting that top bankers at the Wall
Street Giant bent over backwards to accommodate the dead pedophile
as he helped them line up lucrative clients, including Google
and its co founder Sergey Brinn. And it really all
comes down to greed. How much is enough? You have
all of this money anyway, as JP Morgan, all of
(01:47):
these high profile clients, but it's never enough. We have
to take on a scumbag pedophile as well, because you know,
we have to continue to stuff our pockets. I mean,
it's expensive to buy elections, right. The US Virgin Islands
filed explosive court papers on Tuesday in Manhattan Federal Court
to bolster its allegation that Epstein played a key role
(02:10):
as an investment advisor to the Silicon Valley search giant
En Brynn, whose personal portfolio of over four billion dollars
was among the bank's largest. And what's so crazy to
me is you see how liberally they apply RICO to
other people. How come RICO wasn't applied here? It fits
all of the predicates, it checks all of the boxes,
(02:33):
and everything lines up. But somehow Glaine Maxwell and the
rest of Jeffrey Epstein's band of scumbags has been able
to avoid getting caught up in a Rico case. This
shit right here was exactly what this law was drawn
up for. But somehow, some way, Ah, we're gonna avoid
Rico in the Epstein case. We're not gonna hit Maxwell
(02:56):
with RICO either, because well, you remember what Nancy Pelosi's
daughter is said, our faves and all. We can't have
our faves caught up in this God forbid people find
out about ms Rumler, God forbid, people find out about
Bill Richardson or George Mitchell. God forbid, people find out
about Reid Hoffman. But hey, have you folks heard about
(03:16):
alex Acosta. In an email from two thousand and six
that was unsealed on Tuesday, Mary Erdos, a star banker
who is now the CEO of JP Morgan's Asset and
Wealth management division, urged colleagues to set up a team
in New York rather than in San Francisco, where Google
and Brent are based, to manage the accounts. According to
(03:37):
the Core documents, Erdos wrote in the email, which had
the subject line Google. This has nothing to do with
the abilities of the SF team. This is solely because
our need to have a New York team cover a
person Jeffrey Epstein as the advisor to the partners. That
same day, and Borrowitch, then a managing director at JP
(03:58):
Morgan's New Jersey Price Bank, shared a message with the
subject line big new business APPI, informing colleagues that a
New York based team had been picked to work with
Jeffrey Epstein on business API associated with grats that are
terminating for Google founders. The filing showed and the gratz
Hustle is real. That's how all of these sick, disgusting
(04:21):
rich billionaires keep all their dough. I have an episode
in the catalog called the Gratz Hustle that discusses just
how these billionaires use this system to keep all of
their money while you're having your Etsy account examined by
eighty seven thousand new IRS agents. Also that day, Borrowich
emailed several other JP Morgan employees informing them we are
(04:44):
setting up a conference call. It is to get the
necessary background on the potential investment management opportunity associated with
Jeffrey Epstein to the trust set up on behalf of
the Google founder's kids. It is unclear if Borrowitch was
referring to Brinn, though banker Robert A. Keller wrote in
a memo when Brynn became a JP Morgan client, we
(05:06):
work very closely with the Sergey Brinn family office and
communicate with them at least one time per day. Brynn,
a forty nine year old father of three, is now
number eleven on Forbes list with a net worth of
one hundred and four point two billion dollars. When you
have one hundred and four point two billion dollars, you
don't get caught up in rico cases, well, not unless
(05:29):
you cross intelligence. What did Chuck Schumer tell us? If
you cross intelligence, they'll find a way to get you
three ways till Sunday or whatever. That's reassuring coming from
a senior senator. Huh, nothing like a out of control
CIA an intelligence division. JP Morgan responded to the lawsuit's
allegations today, saying, rather than account for its own failures
(05:52):
to investigate and monitor this criminal under its jurisdiction, USVII
blames a bank that did not have USVII authority to
enforce any law, and the USVII is spot on with that.
As much as I hate to give them any sort
of ground, they're definitely spot on with that. They didn't
have subpoena power. JP Morgan couldn't compel anyone to come
(06:15):
to court and give testimony, but the United States Virgin
Island sure could, and they didn't do anything like that. Instead,
they got into bed with Jeffrey Epstein, gave him all
kinds of benefits and took his money. Any association with
Epstein was a mistake, and in hindsight we regret it,
but we did not help him commit his ain't his crimes.
(06:36):
A JP Morgan spokesperson added, we would never have continued
to do business with him if we believed he was
engaged in an ongoing sex trafficking operation. Well that doesn't
cut it. We've seen the emails JP Morgan, and for
as much as we want to talk about USVII having
responsibility to stop this dude, so did the financial sector.
(06:58):
So did JP Morgan, and they all failed. Google and
Brinn didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. Another
email ex change, including the bombshell documents revealed that JP
Morgan's current chief executive, Jamie Diamond, work with a team
of other executives as well as Epstein on the bank's
acquisition of investment management firm high Bridge. And another connection,
(07:23):
Where do you think they got high Bridge from? Oh,
that's right, Glenn Dubin. Where do we know Glen Dubin from. Well,
he's being credibly accused as one of the abusers of
Virginia Roberts. But that's okay, we won't talk about him either, right,
Let's talk more about alex Acosta. Meanwhile, all these ties
between Glenn Dubin, Jeffrey Epstein, JP Morgan and the rest
(07:46):
of these scuzz balls just continues to fly under the radar.
The so called Project Alpha group included Jess Daly, who
would later become CEO of UK banking giant Barclays before
he was toppled by the Epstein scandal in twenty twenty one, Diamond,
who hadn't yet taken over as the bank's chief executive,
billionaire Highbridge co founder, Glenn Dubin, and Epstein, among others.
(08:13):
Once JP Morgan completed it's Highbridge purchase in two thousand
and four, Staley requested that an email be sent to
Diamond and Duben with Epstein blind copied. According to the
court papers, Jamie Diamond had no idea though everything was
on the up and up. According to Jamie Diamond, and
Jeffrey Epstein wasn't a scumbag. He asked that the email
(08:35):
say You've done an amazing job of bringing our business
together and delivering numbers that will earn the envy of
our industry. Thanks for the partnership. We are well on
our way to resume our position as one of the
most respected asset and wealth managers. Ah, isn't that cute?
Jeffrey Epstein helping JP Morgan get back on top. And
(08:57):
I want you to keep this in mind next time
you try to get a loan from JP Morgan and
they try to bang you for a fifteen percent finance rate.
Though the US Virgin Islands alleged that Diamond and Epstein
worked on this acquisition together, Diamond testified in a deposition
in May that he had never had dealings with Epstein
and didn't even know the sex trafficker was a JP
(09:19):
Morgan client until his twenty and nineteen arrest. Oh, I
believe that I believe that about as much as I
believe the stories of Bigfoot. Epstein, who committed suicide allegedly
while awaiting trial in twenty nineteen, was a JP Morgan
client from nineteen ninety eight to twenty and thirteen. Diamond
(09:40):
has called the bank's relationship with Epstein a terrible mistake,
but says he was unaware of it at the time,
instead pointing the finger at Staley, who was the CEO
of JP Morgan's asset Management division in two thousand and four,
when Diamond first joined the bank. Staley, however, has contradicted
the claim, saying he and Diamond did in fact communicate
(10:03):
about Epstein in two thousand and six when Epstein was
first arrested, and again in two thousand and eight when
he pleaded guilty to soliciting and procuring a minor for prostitution.
Staley and Diamond were colleagues at JP Morgan until two
thousand and nine, when Staley left to head up Barclays. Now,
is anybody out there really believe in one single damn
(10:25):
word about Jamie Diamond and his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein,
And he can keep denying this until sank Smithin's day
for all I care. But the facts are the facts,
and the facts say that Jamie Diamond knew about Epstein
and knew who he was. The recent filing is the
latest in a back and forth legal battle between JP
(10:46):
Morgan and the US Virgin Islands in which the US
territory is seeking at least one hundred and ninety million
dollars to settle the suit that claims JP Morgan benefited
from Epstein's infamous sex trafficking ring while ignoring his sordid misdeeds. Hello, pot,
I'm kettle, you're black. That's basically what the USVII allegations
(11:08):
are saying. The Virgin Islands counsel at Mottley Rice declined
the comment, Well, folks, it feels like a broken record
at this point, how many times we have to go
over people like Sergey Brinn. But now that he's back
in the conversation, we'll talk about him again, and we'll
continue to talk about these dirt bags as they pop
up in the ongoing conversation. All right, everybody that's gonna
(11:31):
do it for this one. All of the information that
