John Brockman, a prominent literary agent and founder of the Edge Foundation (a prestigious salon for scientists and thinkers), had longstanding ties to Epstein’s intellectual and social circle.

B...

Jeffrey Epstein appeared to gravitate toward a very specific category of scientist and intellectual during the later decades of his life: elite researchers working at the cutting edge of fields tied to human intelligence, genetics, artificial intelligence, physics, neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and transhumanist-style theories about the future of humanity. Epstein surrounded himself with pro...

For decades she positioned herself as a high-society power broker, cultivating ties with royals, politicians, financiers, and celebrities.

Baden called the report “ridiculous” and accused investigators of ignoring key foren...

Jeffrey Epstein’s death inside a Manhattan jail cell in 2019 ignited a chain of suspicion that has never faded, morphing into a narrative where suicide is never just suicide.
