Epstein bought 330 gallons of sulphuric acid within days of the FBI opening its probe into him, new docs show.
Receipts and internal emails indicate that six 55-gallon drums were delivered to Little St. James on June 12, 2018. He was obviously tipped off. And he was obviously destroying evidence.

RIP to a true #Canucks legend, Jim Robson. He enriched the lives of generations of fans and inspired future broadcasters in Vancouver and beyond. I’ll never forget listening to him and Tom Larscheid call games on the radio, and how my dad would talk back to them like they were in the room with us. ❤️

Jeffrey Epstein couldn’t stop emailing people about eugenics.
In the latest tranche of Epstein records, themes of genes, genetics, and IQ—alongside explicit threads of white supremacy—keep cropping up, often adjacent to his fascination with steering research in the biological sciences.

Trump shows up over a million times in the unredacted Epstein files. And that's the half they released. Imagine what's in the half they didn't release.
That means that the DOJ redacted Trump's name about 950K times in the 3M documents they released. www.axios.com/2026/02/10/t...
