Peter Mandelson appears to have met Jeffrey Epstein at New York mansion on a taxpayer-funded trip – while billionaire paedophile was under house arrest, new documents show

Peter Mandelson appears to have met Jeffrey Epstein on a taxpayer-funded trip to America when the disgraced financier was under house arrest for sex offences, newly-uncovered documents indicate.

Epstein’s private schedule, unearthed by The Mail on Sunday, reveals Lord Mandelson was due to have two meetings with the convicted paedophile at his £60 million New York mansion on consecutive days in March, 2010, while on a trip that cost taxpayers more than £8,000.

At the time Lord Mandelson was Business Secretary and First Secretary of State – effectively the second most powerful politician in Gordon Brown’s government as de facto deputy prime minister.

Epstein, meanwhile, was under house arrest after being sentenced in 2008 to 18 months in jail by a Florida court for procuring a child for prostitution and of soliciting a prostitute. 

Last night the Foreign Office refused to answer questions, including whether the Labour grandee’s two meetings with Epstein took place. 

Lord Mandelson, 71, now the UK’s ambassador to the US, has said he ‘deeply regrets’ both ever meeting Epstein and the hurt caused to his victims

He also claimed he never had any kind of professional or business relationship with him. But quizzed recently about his relationship with Epstein, who died in 2019, he told a senior Financial Times journalist to ‘f*** off’.

Lord Mandelson and the financier are believed to have been first introduced by Ghislaine Maxwell, who was jailed in 2022 for 20 years for helping Epstein traffic under-age girls.

AG Pam Bondi Provides Update on Epstein Files, January 6, JFK, and MLK Assassination Documents

Attorney General Pam Bondi has promised again that the American people will finally receive long-awaited answers on the Epstein client list, the January 6th investigation, and the long-classified records related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Pam Bondi is encountering growing impatience from MAGA supporters due to the absence of charges against prominent elites.

In an interview with Maria Bartiromo, Bondi made it clear that the government’s history of stonewalling crucial information is coming to an end under the new administration.

During the interview, Bartiromo pointed out that MAGA supporters are furious over the lack of transparency regarding Jeffrey Epstein’s associates.

It can be recalled that the so-called “Epstein Files: Phase One” was a colossal disappointment — heavily redacted pages handed over to a select group of MAGA influencers.

Bondi had hyped the release on Fox News with Jesse Watters the night before, promising “flight logs, names, and a lot of information” about Epstein’s depraved criminal network.

Conservatives braced for a bombshell that would finally unmask the elite swamp creatures tied to the notorious pedophile. Instead, they got a dud.

Speaking with Maria Bartiromo, Bondi confirmed that critical information has been withheld, and she is determined to get to the truth.

Missouri Senators Approve Bill To Legalize Psilocybin Therapy For Veterans And Sex Trafficking Survivors

Missouri senators have advanced a bill to allow military veterans and survivors of sex trafficking who have certain mental health conditions to legally access psilocybin therapy.

The Senate Families, Seniors and Health Committee approved the legislation from Sen. Stephen Webber (D) on Wednesday. A similar House bill focused on the psychedelic moved through a separate panel earlier this month.

In addition to being 21 or older, a military veteran or sex trafficking survivor and enrolled in a clinical trial, participants in the proposed program would need to have PTSD, major depressive disorder, a substance use disorder or be in end-of-life care.

They would also need to provide documentation to the state Department of Mental Health about the treating physician, facilitator and location and time of use.

Further, use of psilocybin would be limited to 150 mg during a 12-month period.

The bill also authorizes the state Department of Health to provide up to $3 million worth of grants to support research on the therapeutic potential of psilocybin.

AG Pam Bondi: Still-Unreleased Epstein Files to Be Redacted for ‘National Security’

It unfortunately appears increasingly unlikely we’re going to get any of the juiciest bits of the Epstein files.

Last week, Attorney General Pam Bondi had the Epstein files “on her desk,” she told Fox News, ready to be released to the public at any moment.

Then, according to the official story out of the DOJ, at some point a whistleblower revealed that the 200 pages of requested Epstein documents she was given by the FBI were not, in fact, all of the documents.

(At this point skepticism begins to set in. How could an experienced prosecutor like Bondi, who was a prosecutor in Florida during the Epstein sex crimes cases, have believed that 200 pages of documents were all the FBI had in relation to one of the most significant sex trafficking rings in world history? The claim beggars belief.)

Nonetheless, even after having learned that she had apparently been duped by rogue agents in the Southern District of New York, she still pulled one of the worst PR stunts in recent memory, handing out binders labeled “The Epstein Files: Phase 1” — which contained virtually no new information not already in the public domain — to a gaggle of handpicked influencers and sending them out in front of the White House press pool to wave them around as if they had a big scoop.

Pam Bondi Announces She Received a ‘TRUCKLOAD’ of Epstein Documents from SDNY After Being Misled by FBI

Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed in a bombshell interview with Sean Hannity on Monday that Kash Patel’s FBI has finally received a truckload of previously withheld Jeffrey Epstein documents from the Southern District of New York (SDNY).

Last Thursday’s so-called “Epstein Files: Phase One” was a colossal disappointment — heavily redacted pages handed over to a select group of MAGA influencers.

Bondi had hyped the release on Fox News with Jesse Watters the night before, promising “flight logs, names, and a lot of information” about Epstein’s depraved criminal network.

Conservatives braced for a bombshell that would finally unmask the elite swamp creatures tied to the notorious pedophile. Instead, they got a dud.

Appearing on Life, Liberty & Levin with Mark Levin, Bondi dropped the hammer: she’d been misled.

“I was assured 120 pages was all there was,” she told Levin. “I kept saying, ‘There has to be more.’ Kash Patel asked the same thing and got the same line. Then a whistleblower tipped me off—SDNY was sitting on thousands of pages.”

The FBI initially handed over only a few hundred pages, far less than expected. However, a whistleblower alerted Bondi that the bulk of the Epstein files were actually sitting in SDNY. Bondi set a firm deadline: Friday at 8 a.m. for all remaining documents to be turned over.

New York FBI Field Office Head Forced Out Days After His Office Was Revealed to Have Been Hiding Thousands of Epstein Documents

There has been a significant shake-up within the FBI as one of its top officials has been forced out.

NBC News reported Monday that James Dennehy, the head of the FBI’s New York office, threw in the towel just days after his office was revealed to have been hiding thousands of Epstein documents.

“Late Friday, I was informed that I needed to put my retirement papers in today, which I just did,” Dennehy wrote in an email obtained by NBC. “I was not given a reason for this decision.”

Two sources confirmed to NBC that Dennehy was given the choice between getting fired or resigning. He chose the latter.

She later announced that a key FBI official involved in withholding these critical documents “will not be working for us anymore.” Was it Dennehy?

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed that the FBI was withholding thousands of Epstein files. She ordered the FBI to provide the complete Epstein files by Friday morning, February 28, and directed an immediate investigation into the oversight.

Last Thursday’s much-hyped release of “The Epstein Files: Phase One” fell flat for many Americans hungry for the truth. The 120-page dump, handed over to a select group of MAGA influencers, was a heavily redacted dud—mostly rehashed information previously seen.

So That’s Why We Haven’t Seen the Real Epstein List

On his Fox News show “Life, Liberty, and Levin,” Mark Levin had a compelling discussion with Attorney General Pam Bondi about one of the most scandalous yet suspiciously opaque cases in modern history—the Jeffrey Epstein files. Last week, many anticipated bombshell revelations exposing high-profile figures linked to criminal activity on Epstein’s private island. Instead, what we got was a rehash of information already widely known.

So, why is this happening and when are we going to see the new stuff? 

Levin wasted no time driving into the matter, noting that his curiosity about the Epstein client lists is mirrored by countless Americans. “I think the American people are very curious about who’s on this list or these lists,” Levin said. “You have been doggedly trying to get all the information and now we learn, thanks to you, that you’ve been stonewalled by people in New York. Do you want to explain that?”

“So, as you know, we released about 120 pages of documents. And I started asking for these documents right when I came into office and before Kash Patel was in there,” she began. “So I ended up getting about 120 pages. We carefully redacted them, of course, to be sure the 254 young girls, women who are victims of sex crimes and sex trafficking, their personal information was redacted and out of there to protect them.”

Pam Bondi Gives Update on Epstein Files: Claims She Was ‘Assured There Are Only 120 Pages’ — Reveals FBI Official Who Withheld Docs ‘Will Not Be Working for Us Anymore’

After the catastrophic dumpster fire of a release surrounding the long-awaited Jeffrey Epstein files on Thursday, Attorney General Pam Bondi has delivered a scathing update on the deep corruption and obstruction within the FBI regarding these explosive documents.

Bondi, appearing on Fox News’ Life, Liberty & Levin on Thursday, revealed that she had been assured there were only 120 pages of files to release—but a whistleblower has since exposed that the FBI’s New York office is sitting on thousands of undisclosed pages.

Last Thursday’s much-hyped release of “The Epstein Files: Phase One” fell flat for many patriots hungry for the truth.

The 120-page dump, handed over to a select group of MAGA influencers, was a heavily redacted dud—mostly rehashed info we’ve seen before.

Bondi had promised Fox News’ Jesse Watters a day earlier that the documents would include “flight logs, names, and a lot of information” about Epstein’s sick criminal empire.

This US Army Colonel Just Figured Out How to Nail Every FBI Agent Withholding Epstein Files and Make It Stick

Thursday’s confusion surrounding the release of files pertaining to the late accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein left many people exasperated.

In short, the corrupt and tyrannical FBI appears to have ignored direct orders from Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Thursday on the social media platform X, Retired U.S. Army Col. Kurt Schlichter, a senior columnist for Townhall.com, suggested an interesting and plausible solution to Bondi’s problem with insubordination in FBI ranks.

On Wednesday evening, the attorney general told Jesse Watters of Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime” that she would likely release Epstein-related files the following day.

That announcement, of course, built substantial anticipation for Thursday’s promised revelation.

On Thursday afternoon, however, Bondi appeared to have botched that revelation when she or someone close to her in President Donald Trump’s administration presented a small group of conservative social media influencers with binders purporting to represent the first phase of the Epstein files release. Photos of those influencers smiling and holding the binders as they stood outside the White House began circulating on X.

When finally made available for public view, the contents of those binders revealed nothing of significance.

Later on Thursday, Bondi released a letter accusing the FBI Field Office in New York of having deceived her. In the letter, addressed to new FBI Director Kash Patel, she demanded delivery of all Epstein-related materials to her office by 8 a.m. EST Friday.

Then, Patel announced on X that the new FBI under his direction would prioritize transparency and accountability.

Finally, on Thursday evening’s episode of his show, Watters reviewed the events of the day and suggested that federal officials in New York, including both the FBI and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, might have deliberately ignored Bondi’s order as part of a years-long cover-up motivated by the federal government’s insidious connection to Epstein’s activities.

If so, then Bondi and Patel have their work cut out for them. And Schlichter offered one possible solution.

From Epstein To Diddy: Spotlight Shines On James Comey’s Prosecutor Daughter

Speaking Jeffrey Epstein and things being kept under wraps (more on that later), a prosecutor with a famous last name quietly joined the sex trafficking case against Sean “Diddy Combs late last year…

In a thinly covered news story from December that’s suddenly relevant again (read on), New York Prosecutor Maurene Comey  whose father James Comey famously refused to prosecute Hillary Clinton for mishandling classified information & then participated in the Russia collusion hoax – joined the prosecution against Combs. The younger Comey has previously worked as lead prosecutor on both the Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell cases, as well as that of former Epstein cellmate Nicholas Tartaglione. More on that below…

Combs is currently facing multiple serious legal charges, including sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for purposes of prostitution. These charges stem from allegations that, from at least 2008 to the present, the impresario led a criminal enterprise aimed at exploiting and abusing women, protecting his reputation, and concealing his conduct. The alleged crimes encompass sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice.

Multiple allegations of sexual misconduct involving minors have been made. Last October, attorney Tony Buzbee announced he was representing 120 individuals accusing Combs of sexual misconduct; 25 of these accusers were minors at the time of the alleged incidents – while he’s also been accused of drugging and sexually assaulting a 10-year-old boy in a New York City hotel in 2005 and a 17-year-old boy in 2008 who aspired to be on the reality TV show “Making the Band.”

According to former dancer Adria Sheri English, who claimed she was “pimped out” by Diddy, the embattled rapper would hold sex-crazed “freak offs” that often took place away from the “main party” but were kept a secret.
