What's up, everyone? And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. Jeff Staley is now being sued by JP Morgan for allegedly hiding his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And while I love to see Jeff Staley get sued here, I find it a bit laughable that JP Morgan is going to try and act like they had no idea what was going on and it was all just Daily's fault. The institutions, the financial institutions never take responsibility for anything. There's always a fall guy, there's always a reason why and there's always an excuse. You know what? There never is jail sentences for these scumbags, the modern day robber barons. You know, the same people who are responsible for the housing crash in 2008, 2009, the same people who never went to prison or jail yet. Yeah, those same people are now telling you that they weren't responsible for their relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it's all on Jeff Staley. Well, those of us who have been paying attention, we know that that's bs. While Jeff Staley was a huge part of it, a key cog in the machine, he wasn't the only one involved. There were plenty of people at JP Morgan who could have stopped Jeffrey Epstein and none of them did it. Not one of them stepped up and said, look, we can't do business with this scumbag. Look what he's up to. Instead, they just kept counting their dollars and securing that bag. And it's not just Jeffrey Epstein. Remember, Epstein's the tip of the iceberg, folks. He's who we focus on mainly here. But he's just a symptom of the problem. There are groups like this all over the world and there are more people in slavery right now, modern day slavery, than there has ever been enslaved and ever in history. And if you think it was only Jeffrey Epstein and Ghisne Maxwell doing this, I got news for you. It wasn't. And whether it's human trafficking or narco trafficking or insert criminal behavior here, none of it would be possible without the complicity of the financial sector. So it's always laughable when these institutions try to scapegoat somebody. Today we have an article from the Daily Mail and the headline, JP Morgan sues former executive for hiding Jeffrey Epstein Sex abuse to help retain pervert, financier, pedophile as Bank's client. Lawsuit says he should be liable for any fines levied against the firm and demands he repay his wages. Well, you know Jeff Staley's going to say, right? Well, everybody else knew as well. And I hope that the fingers Start pointing. And I hope everybody gets thrown under the bus here and. And then I hope everybody's subpoenaed. You know how that would have happened and how we could have avoided all of this. That's right. You know what I'm going to say? They should have been hit with RICO right away because all of these people that were doing business with Jeffrey Epstein, sending money to his bank, receiving money from him, all of those people would get caught up in that dragnet and all of them would be charged with rico. Now, would all of those predicates stick? Of course they wouldn't. But it would be a glimpse into the books of a lot of these people. The government refuses to do it. Just like the government refuses to let you know who the Johns were who were using Jeffrey Epstein or how they refused to provide any clarity about Jeffrey Epstein's death. Today's article is authored by Alex Oliveira. JP Morgan has sued a former executive who was allegedly responsible for keeping pedophile sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein's business at the bank for 15 years. So you mean to tell me at this bank there's no checks and balances? J.P. morgan. Jess Staley could just do whatever he wants. He was God there. There was nobody above him. Why didn't auditing step in? Where was accounting? Where was accountability? See all of these different levels that are there as redundancies to make sure this doesn't happen, they were either all bunny hopped or. Or they all just kept silent. It can't be anything else because they certainly knew. You mean to tell me auditing didn't take a look at what was going on or accounting and didn't say to themselves, holy man, we got ourselves a pedophile? Of course they did. They have a whole division of people who do just that. But somehow it's just Jess Staley's fault right? Now, don't misunderstand me. Jess Staley owns the lion share here. But for JP Morgan to act like they had no idea. I. I'm not buying that. James Edward. Jess Staley was sued by JP Morgan after US Virgin Islands filed a lawsuit against the bank claiming it knew about Epstein's nefarious behavior for years, but turned a blind eye to it. The suing of Staley draws him into JP Morgan's case with the government of the US Virgin Islands and positions him as a defendant. The move can make Staley responsible for for JP Morgan's financial damages if the bank loses its case. He's in severe jeopardy here, folks. Not only does he have the government going after him, all of his buddies at JP Morgan or former buddies, they've all turned on him now and he's enemy number one right now that the spotlight is on them as a whole, as an entity. Well, they have to find that scapegoat. We can't look at Jamie Dimon and JP Morgan and say, why didn't you stop this guy? Oh, no, no, no. They have to tell you that it's just Jeff Staley and that's it. The buck stops there when the reality is we know it goes all the way to the top. The US Virgin Islands alleged in its lawsuit that Staley exchanged a number of explicit emails with Epstein which included pictures of underage women. Those emails allegedly continued after Epstein was convicted of soliciting prostitution from an underage girl and in 2008. So he knew that Jeffrey Epstein was trying to diddle little girls and still was trading emails with them, looking at pictures of underage girls, talking about Snow White Disney characters, because you know, that's just normal behavior for grown ass men. Is anybody buying this? Like, honestly, who buys this? Staley was known to have shared a close relationship with Epstein over the years, with the pair sometimes taking trips together. Staley has not been convicted of any crimes in relation to Epstein. Well, he's never been tried for any crimes in relation to Epstein, never been called on the carpet in relation to Epstein, and has never had to answer any real questions related to Epstein. And you know, that's how the process usually works, right? You have to actually be accused of something first. And for all of these years, nobody wanted to accuse Jess Daly of, of anything, when in reality he should have been at the top of the list of people being looked at as far as being complicit financially with Jeffrey Epstein. In its lawsuit against JP Morgan filed in December, the US Virgin Islands alleged the bank had more than close up view of Epstein sex trafficking. It also said the bank ignored obvious red flags relating to Epstein's accounts. There is no doubt that, that there were red flags in abundance surrounding Jeffrey Epstein. But guess what? It was all about securing a bag. All people cared about was making money. And if they can make money on the back of Jeffrey Epstein, who cares how scummy he is? And that was their whole motto. And that's the motto, unfortunately, that still permeates on Wall Street. Epstein ran much of his criminal activities out of Little St. James Island, a private island he owned on off the coast of the St James Islands. The government alleged that JP Morgan had more than enough exposure to Epstein's accounts to determine he was conducting criminal behavior in their territory. Staley was not named in the lawsuit from the U. S. Virgin Islands. What I will say about this though is the U. S. Virgin Islands has some nerve. This was happening in their territory right under their noses and their officials were getting their palms greased and they have the audacity to sue somebody else? Have they arrested anybody in the US Virgin Islands for corruption or for being involved with Jeffrey Epstein? The answer, obviously is no. So they have a lot of audacity here to try and pitch this like it was happening under JP Morgan's nose, but they had no idea what was going on in the government in the Virgin Islands. Seems a bit laughable, right? And I don't know how a jury is going to look at that if it gets to that point. But I'll tell you this much. Watching Jeff Staley get aired out is worth it to me. Staley was not named in the lawsuit from the US Virgin Islands. JP Morgan denied the allegations and moved for a criminal dismissal of the case. In its lawsuit, the bank said Staley should cover all of their damages if they lose their case against the US Virgin Islands, accusing him of intentional and outrageous conduct and hiding information about Epstein. Oh, cry me a river. J.P. morgan, the biggest bank in the world, and you don't have the proper means to do your due diligence on what Jess Staley was up to while he was an employee at your company? You really think we're gonna buy that? Now? If this was some PO Dunk little company. All right, fine. I get it. You don't have the resources. This is JP Morgan we're talking about. The biggest bank in the world. The bank also said Staley put his and Epstein's interests by before the banks. The lawsuit also demands Staley pay back the wages he was paid from 2006 to 2012, which could amount to tens of millions of dollars, according to Reuters. Good luck with that. They're not going to get that money back. Zero chance. While a high ranking JP Morgan executive, Staley famously visited Epstein in prison after his conviction for prostitution in 2008. Just to be clear, little girls can't be prostitutes. And that's what Jeffrey Epstein solicited. A little girl. The bank has denied Staley actually went to the prison, saying instead, Epstein visited Staley at his office during a work release for his 18 month prison sentence. Oh, that's so much better. Let's have a convicted sex offender come to the offices of JP Morgan after the full extent of Epstein's crimes. Became known in 2019. Staley initially claimed he he and Epstein were little more than acquaintances tied by business. Later, he admitted to having a close professional relationship that he established while running JP Morgan Private bank and Asset Management Division from 2000 to 2009. Staley became the CEO of Barclays in 2015, but in 2021 stepped down amidst a probe into whether he had concealed the extent of of his relationship with Epstein. And he most certainly did. Is there any doubt about that? I mean, I feel like I've been talking about Jeff Staley for years now, so I'm glad that people are finally catching on and realizing that the financial sector played a gigantic role here. In its suit against Staley, JP Morgan accused him of being the unnamed man implicated in an assault case from a Jane Doe against Epstein, which said one of Epstein's friends used aggressive force in his sexual assault of her and informed Jane Doe 1 that he had Epstein's permission to do what he wanted to her. JP Morgan alleged that friend was Staley, according to Reuters. So imagine that he's getting thrown under the bus by JP Morgan here in an epic fashion. We have never heard that Jeff Staley was an abuser before. We had only heard that he was an enabler. Well, now that conversation has to change, Right? And Jess Staley, it's looking like anyway, is going to have to be moved from the rung of just an enabler to somebody that was actually involved in abusing girls upon information and belief. Staley is this person who she described as a powerful financial executive. She had historically been afraid to identify J.P. morgan's complaint. Red, there's no doubt that the walls are closing in on Jeff Staley. The question is just how far those walls are going to compress. All right, folks, that's going to do it for this one. All of the information that goes with the episode can be found in the description box. What's up, everyone? And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. Jess Staley is going to have to face the music when it comes to the J.P. morgan lawsuit. And as we've discussed before, he was trying to get that lawsuit thrown out. Now he's facing liability not only from the lawsuit from the US Virgin Islands and the accuser, but also liability perhaps when it comes to J.P. morgan. Now, I wouldn't be shocked, but for one minute to see JP Morgan wiggle their ass completely out of all of this and put all the blame on Jeff Staley. And you see they're doing the same thing when it comes to the Virgin Islands. They're saying that the US Virgin Islands was complicit with Epstein as well. And they are not wrong about that. We talked about that at length in an episode yesterday. And it's almost like that Spider man meme, right where Spider Man's pointing at Spider man and then Spider Man's pointing back at another Spider Man. And that's basically what you see here. Every single time somebody gets called onto the carpet for their relationship with Epstein, there's always some kind of half baked ass excuse about why they were palling around with Jeffrey Epstein. And the strategy here obviously is we'll blame everybody else and take no responsibility of ourselves. Hopefully Judge Rakoff sees through that nonsense and holds all of them liable here. I'm talking about the US Virgin Islands as well. How long's it gonna be until some of these survivors decide they're gonna get together and sue the US Virgin Islands? How is it that the US Virgin Islands is entitled to $105 million? There's no explanation for that, especially considering what some of these women and these girls want went through. So you mean to tell me that the US Virgin Islands, who facilitated Jeffrey Epstein's BS at the very least enabled it. They deserve to take money out of the fund that was supposed to go to the survivors. How is that even acceptable on any level? And why would the survivors lawyers at any point be okay with that? That seems like something that you'd want to push back against, right? It's kind of like a lawyer who takes more money than you after a lawsuit. Oh, you got your neck busted up in this car accident, got your back all screwed up, but you're gonna get 30 grand and I'm gonna get 65. Kind of the same deal. Here you have girls that were getting, you know, basically peanuts, comparatively speaking. And then the US Virgin Islands has the audacity to turn right back around and, and try and get more money. That doesn't sit well with me. Not at all. And that's why I've called the Virgin Islands out for basically two years now over this nonsense. Because that's what it's always been for them. It's always been a cash grab. All right, so onto the meat and potatoes of the episode. Today's article is from Fox News and the headline, jess Staley must Face JP Morgan's Lawsuit tied to Jeffrey Epstein. A Judge rules. Staley's over 30 year tenure at JP Morgan ended in 2013. This article was authored by Aslin Murphy. And imagine working at some joint for 30 years. And I'm sure Jeff Staley brought a ton of money into JP Morgan. But imagine getting tossed under the bus like this, especially considering, you know, as Jess Staley does, that all of the other executives that were working at JP Morgan, all the other executives that were on those email chains, they all knew who Epstein was as well. So if I was Jess Daily, I'd be doing the same thing, saying, why am I the one that's getting pointed out? Why am I the one who's being blamed for the whole thing? Well, the answer to that, however, is because you are to blame for the whole thing, at least a very large part of it, just Daily. And that's why the judge is making you liable here. You could have at any time walked into one of those offices of Jamie Dimon or any of those other hotshots and said, you know what? Epstein's a piece of. We can't work with this guy. You see what he's doing. But instead, what were you doing? You were going down to the island and dunking your nuts in his Jacuzzi at the same time, talking about Snow White and. And a bunch of other bullshit that no other adults are talking about. No dudes are sitting around shooting emails to their boys in code word unless there's a reason for it. And usually if there's a reason for it, it's because the dude's trying to score some drugs. Nobody's sitting around talking about, oh, Snow White, unless you're talking about drugs for normal people. But you, Jess Daily, as you're sitting around sipping on some wine with your nuts dunked in Jeffrey Epstein's hot tub, you got some nerve, buddy, to act like you're not responsible here, to act like you're not the man that's holding the bag when all is said and done, because you are. And here's some unsolicited advice for Mr. Barclays, Jess Staley, do yourself a favor and snitch on everybody else and get ahead of it. A judge issued a decision Wednesday about whether the Jeffrey Epstein related lawsuit filed by JP Morgan Chase against Jeff Staley can proceed. U.S. district Judge Jed Rakoff ruled against the former bank executive, saying that the case that dates back to early March will not be tossed out and can move forward. The reasoning used in his decision on the matter will come in due course, he said. So he didn't give an opinion on why he made the ruling that he did yet, but he's going to pen one of those up and break it down to why he decided to go ahead and let the lawsuit move Forward. And I think the reason is one we all know, because Jess Staley, at the very least, look, at the very least, is culpable for helping Jeffrey Epstein structure, for helping Jeffrey Epstein Avoid Title 31 and for a whole host of other financial crimes. And that doesn't even delve into these new allegations against him. Well, new public allegations, anyway, that Jeff Staley was taking part in the abuse as well as being an enabler. So, yeah, I would say that Judge Rakoff made the right decision to let this move forward. Staley, who worked at J.P. morgan from 1979 to 2013, had submitted his motion to dismiss in April. The JPMorgan Chase lawsuit made allegations that during his employment at the bank, Staley protected Epstein. Epstein's 15 years as a J.P. morgan client ran from 1998 to 2013. In 2020, Staley said he deeply regrets having any relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, adding, obviously, I thought I knew him well, and I didn't, according to the Associated Press. Nope, you're not getting off with that. You knew who he was, you knew what he was, and you knew what he was up to. And in fact, according to these allegations, you were involved. So don't give us that BS you have no idea, or that you couldn't fully grasp what he was up to, because you knew what he was up to. And with those allegations of the abuse, here's a real simple course, a real simple remedy for you, Jess Daily. If you didn't abuse that accuser, why don't you sue her? Go ahead and sue her for defamation. Let's get the discovery and let's get the ball rolling. But you won't do that, will you? Because all of these people are the same. They'll all talk about how they regretted their relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, but they'll never show any sort of remorse. They'll never show any sort of behavior. They'll. That would signal to anybody that they're sorry. Instead, what they do is lie and lie and lie some more. In addition to saying he regretted the relationship, Staley has denied knowing about Epstein's crimes and accused J.P. morgan of making him a fall guy for its supervisory failures. All of you should go down. I'd like to see JP Morgan and Jess Daly get equally slapped with liability here. The bank is seeking for Staley to cover losses that it could potentially rack up in two other lawsuits and to get back the compensation it paid him from 2006 to 2013. I highly doubt they'll get that compensation back. He has a good argument. As far as them Knowing about Epstein, knowing that Epstein was a scumbag. And they didn't act either. So it's kind of like the Acosta situation. Everybody wants to blame Acosta and I get it. Easy fall guy, easy guy to point to and say, what a dumbass, what a coward, what a straight up pussy. But at the end of the day, he was just the trigger man. He didn't make the call. He wasn't sitting down in the dark back room with the decision makers. He just pulled the trigger. And you can make the same argument here, right, that Jess Daley wasn't the man that ultimately was behind the lever of power, but he was in a position where he could have stopped this and where he not only stood by, but profited. And also, according to these reports, abused girls with Jeffrey Epstein. So that's a big problem for Jeff Staley, obviously. But for JP Morgan to try and flip the whole ass script and put it all on him, I don't think that's going to work out well for them. Late Last year, the US Virgin Islands sued JPMorgan Chase on claims the bank knowingly facilitated, sustained and concealed the human traffic network operated by Jeffrey Epstein from his home and base in the Virgin Islands and financially benefited from this participation, directly or indirectly, by failing to comply with federal banking regulations, as previously reported by Fox Business. Now that all sounds real serious, right? So why did they just go with a SECO case and not a RICO case? Oh, that's right. They didn't really want to bring anybody in. They didn't want to bring nobody to justice. For real. They're just trying to throw you a little bit of red meat. Hey, if we throw a little red meat this way, maybe they'll shut up. And the Virgin Islands, well, we know what they're on. They're out here trying to collect that bag like. Like Barksdale down in Baltimore. During the show the Wire, JP Morgan has also made allegations against the US Virgin Islands, claiming Tuesday in a filing that the territory was complicit in the crimes of Epstein. Yes, they were. And I think they're just proving people's point here with these sorts of claims. Yeah, you dumb jackasses. This is what I've been telling you. Everybody's involved, all of them. Every last person that Epstein was doing business with, every person that was at his house, every person that he was writing a check to, or vice versa. They're all involved in some way. Now, does that mean everybody was engaging and abusing the girls? Of course not. There's different layers to this, there's people that are money men, there's people that are there for influence, and then of course, there's the sick bastards that, that have all been publicly named, or at least a big group of them. And those people are the ones that should really rot in hell. Those are the people that still haven't been called out. Everybody talks about list this, list that. I'm going to leak information. Why don't you start, like I said the other day, with George Mitchell? Why don't you start with Bill Richardson? Why don't you start with Stacy Plasket? And then once you've finished that homework assignment, come back and I'll have more for you. But until then, enough with the Twitter nonsense about how you're going to expose this one or that one. You're not exposing anybody except yourself as an absolute fool and a grifter. I mean, do we really need to hear about Tom Hanks another 500 times? A bunch of nonsense about Tom Hanks. How is that pushing anything forward? Especially considering when you have those three names I just gave you, Stacy Plaskett, George Mitchell and Bill Richardson. Why would you be worried about Tom Hanks? Sounds like misdirection to me. And it sounds like somebody is trying to change the narrative. The question is, why do people keep falling for it? For the second one, the bank faces accusations from Epstein accusers in the form of a class action lawsuit. The same thing should happen to the US Virgin Islands. Epstein's behavior was monstrous and his victims deserved justice, a JPMorgan Chase spokesperson told Fox Business on Wednesday. In hindsight, any association with him was a mistake and we regret it. But we did not help him commit his heinous crimes. Now you just facilitated his money. You helped him with his financial malfeasance. I guess money laundering is no big deal when you're hanging out with Jamie Dimon and you're, you know, a bundler for insert president here, you can get away with that, I guess. But if you got an Etsy store, you better believe One of those 87,000 new IRS agents is going to want to have a conversation. Prior to Epstein's death in 2019, he was facing one charge of sex trafficking minors and one of the conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking minors that he was supposed to go to trial for. His death ruled to suicide, took place Aug. 10, 2019, in jail. And we all know that's allegedly. We don't know about suicide. Prove it. At this point. Prove it. I don't believe anything that someone like Bill Barr is telling Me. So let me see some proof, some tangible proof. Ghislaine Maxwell, a longtime associate of Epstein's. You mean co conspirator, fellow child abuser, general all around scuzzbag and bipedal serpent, Is that what you mean? Received 20 years of imprisonment last year for charges in connection to the crimes the deceased financier pedophile was accused of. She has launched efforts to appeal her conviction. Good luck. Good luck with that appeal. Imagine sitting there on a jury and, and this lady comes strolling in talking about, I want to get out of jail. Talk about a comedian, huh? So, Ghislaine Maxwell, I highly doubt she's getting out of jail. As far as JP Morgan and Jess Daley go. Like I've said, I think they're both culpable. And I think that the US Virgin Islands is culpable here as well. It's almost like we have a battle royale going on. Al Qaeda versus the Taliban versus isis. Like, like who do you root for? There's no good guy here. All of the people involved in this lawsuit are all scum. So I hope that they all end up having to pay a damn king's ransom. But at the end of the day, that doesn't really hurt them, does it? Because they have more money than Scrooge McDuck. The only way that this is ever going to hurt anybody is if people are indicted and people go to jail. But we know from past experiences that that is not going to happen. Alright folks, that's gonna do it for this one. All of the information that goes with the episode can be found in the description box.
What's up everyone? And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. You know folks, when you're young, all you want to do is get older, right? I know when I was 16, 17 years old, I could not wait to be 21.
But then what nobody tells you is,
is that once you hit that mark of 21, it's all downhill from there, folks. And as your boy comes sliding into the weekend, all busted up, all dented up, he's staring down his 42nd birthday now. Imagine that, my loud mouthed ass. 42 years old. I can't even believe it. Honestly, it seems like it all happened in just a minute. When I was younger, my dad used to say to me all the time, you know, no matter what, good, good or bad, when it's all over and done with, it seems like it was just a minute. And no truer words have ever been spoken to me in my whole life. No matter what has happened to Me, either good or bad. When you look back on it, it seems like it was just a minute. And you can certainly say that about my youth. It seems like just yesterday I was running around Las Vegas like a maniac, going to parties and clubs, staying out all night, getting absolutely shit face wasted, acting like a complete moron. And now I look at my life and it's completely different, right? And it seems like it was just a minute ago. I don't go out anymore. I don't drink, I don't party, you know, so it's crazy when you start looking back at, you know, where you were, to where you are, and you say to yourself, how in the hell did I get here? Relatively unscathed, but here we are, folks, another trip around. The sun is on its way. And I just want to thank all of you for, you know, sticking around for all these years, all this time, all these months, and joining me on this journey. Because, honestly, what's the point without all of you tuning in? You know, it's. It's a very enjoyable thing for me to do every day, get up and know that I'm going to be able to communicate with all of you. I'm going to get those emails, we're going to talk on Twitter or whatever it is. But it's very enjoyable for me to be doing this at this point in my career as opposed to, you know, stuck in the corporate world. And as long as the content continues to resonate with all of you, one thing I can promise is that me, my beard and my big fat mouth will continue to be here chopping it up.
So with that said, just a quick
update, quick reminder that on Tuesday the 15th, I will be joined by my good friend, Maria Farmer. Now, Maria and I are relatively close off of, you know, the Internet or whatever. We talk quite a bit, and I have a massive amount of respect for the courage and the fortitude that Maria has shown as a survivor here.
But even more, I have a lot
of respect for Maria as a person and as a friend at this point. So I'm really excited to have her come onto the show. I'm really excited to chop it up with her, and I'm really excited to catch up with her. And so that all of you folks have an idea on where she's at. All right, so onto today, we have an article from the Daily Mail, and this article is about our good friend Jess Staley's bitch ass. Now, this whole entire thing with Staley has been going on for quite some time throughout the pandemic we were talking about it, and I said then that if it wasn't for the pandemic, just Jeff Staley would have been bumped a long time ago. Well, obviously they didn't want to upset the apple cart during the pandemic. So Staley stuck around, they stuck with him. But now, obviously, things have started to level out a little bit and they've taken a look at the lay of the land and they've decided, yeah, not a great idea to have Jeff Staley around as part of our company. So Staley was given his walking papers. But before all of that happened, in 2019, the bank of England, their alert was so high on Epstein and Staley's relationship that the chairman was called to the bank of England's office and was grilled over Jess Staley and Jess Staley's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. That goes to show you how deep these ties were. And it also goes to show you how much of a liar Jess Staley was up about the depth of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Headline bank of England's Epstein alert on Barclays chief Two years ago, Chairman grilled over Staley's links to pedophile that would lead to downfall. So, look, this has all been going on for a very, very long time, right, with Jeff Staley. And like usual, when it comes to the financial sector, it all came down to the bottom line. We can't get rid of Staley because that'll ruin the bottom line. To hell with these survivors, to hell with these girls, to hell with what they went through. Doesn't matter to us over here at Barclays. And I've told this story before. When I was on my way to New Mexico to go check out Zorro Ranch, they were offering these Barclays credit cards with very favorable frequent flyer miles on it and stuff like that. And usually I jump at an opportunity to, you know, get some free miles or whatever it might be. But I will have nothing to do with any of these banks that had anything to do with Jeffrey Epstein. I refuse. You know, people make their stand however they want to make their stand, Right? And I'm not really a boycott kind of person. I don't get on board with boycotts. I never follow the crowd. I am not a herd animal. But what I will tell you is this. I'm not going to do business with someone who is enabling Jeffrey Epstein. Sorry. And as far as my banking goes, I use a community bank, a credit reserve here in Las Vegas. I'm not banking with these people. So I'm not like, I Said I'm not really big on boycotts or whatever, but silently, I, you know, I move in my own way. I don't need to pronounce and announce everything that I'm doing right? Because again, I don't care what other people think about me. I'm not here for the pats on the back. I'm not here for the credit. I'm here to talk about these scumbag sons of bitches that are ruining all of our lives. And I'm going to continue to talk about these people and not get dragged into the other nonsense, because really, at the end of the day, these people are the biggest problem we have. People like Jess Staley, the institutions that support him and the institutions that continue to enable people like Jeffrey Epstein. The governor of the bank of England summoned the chairman of Barclays to grill him about the links between the lenders, then Chief Executive Jess Staley and the sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein. The Mail on Sunday can reveal. So they have known about this, Right? This has been, you know, something that has been whispered about anyway, that Jess Staley was under a tremendous amount of pressure internally and end externally due to his relationship with Epstein. But now that it's coming out that the chairman of Barclays had to go and sit down with the governor of the bank of England. Yeah, not a very good look. And we see now things are starting to come to the forefront about how some of these oligarchs move their money around these banks. A lot of people aren't hip to that. Right. People don't really pay attention to it. And it's not very interesting. For the most part, nobody gives a shit where someone else has their money parked until something occurs, right? Until there's some kind of situation where this person is under the spotlight for dubious dealings or bad deals or whatever it is. But I just go into all of these discussions and conversations automatically thinking that all of these rich people we're talking about are scummy and up to no good. And it seems like inevitably, every single time we start reading about one of them, that is actually what turns out to be the case. The meeting in 2019 was convened due to concerns that Nigel Higgins may have understood, understated the extent of Staley's relationship with Epstein in a letter he had sent to regulators. Now, look, is there any more of a British name than Nigel Higgins before we go on any further? That is like your quintessential English name? No. Kind of like John Smith in America, Nigel Higgins sounds like some kind of author or poet. The existence of the letter has remained secret until now. It's always a secret with these people, right? Oh, well, we can't let anybody know what's going on. Well, can't have any transparency whatsoever. And then they wonder why nobody trusts them. Higgins, who is still in the chair at Barclays, was grilled by the then governor, Mark Carney, and Andrew Bailey, who was chief executive of the Financial Conduct Authority at the time, but has since taken the top job at the bank. You know, and it's always a revolving door for these people, right? Regulators or otherwise. They end up getting a job in the financial sector. They end up getting a job working for the very people that they were supposed to be regulating.
And.
And it's just a joke. It's just like when we have our elected officials go to Congress or go to the Senate and they go in there with like a net worth of 150 grand, 200 grand, and then they come out with a net worth of like $8 million. Must be nice. How the hell do you make $8 million when you're making a congressman's salary? But for the most part, we're willing to look away and not dig too deep on stuff like that. Then you get to this other scummy shit of you people helping to enable people like Epstein, and that's where we run into a problem, isn't it? Because again, we all expect these politicians to steal. We all expect them to lie. But you're not going to traffic children, you're not going to enable it. And we're not just going to sit around and accept. Is highly unusual for the governor to haul up a bank chairman for questioning or over the conduct of a chief executive, indicating the extent of the bank's disquiet.
So look Again, this was 2019, folks.
They knew they were going to keep it under wraps, keep Jess Daley there as long as possible. Because it's all about the bottom line at places like Barclays. It always will be. You're not even a human being to them. You really think they care if you can pay your bills or if you have medical bills that need to be paid or, you know, whatever it might be? You think Barclays gives a flying fuck? They do not. None of these banks do. And all of these dudes at the top are, I hate to say it, but the smarmiest of the smarmy MF's running around in the world today. Most of them have something to do with the financial sector. And I hate to say that because
I have a lot of friends who
work in the financial sector. But it's not like I don't say this to their face. When we have conversations, I tell them straight up, the greatest day of my life was when I evacuated the premises and didn't have to deal with you scoundrels anymore, because it's just the whole entire industry is corrupt. And when you're dealing with that amount of money, what do you expect? You know, I'm not big on over burdensome regulations on businesses for the most part. But when we talk about the financial sector, they. These people have to be slapped. They have to be brought under control, and they have to be brought to heal. They have so much control over what goes on in our lives and about the quality of our lives. I don't understand how more people don't see what's going on here. Carney stopped short of telling Higgins to Al Staley. However, a source said he gave Higgins the very clear impression the board would want to consider the position of their chief executive officer. So he didn't say, hey, look, you better dump Staley. But he gave him a wink, wink, nudge, nudge, right? Look, Staley's no good for you guys. You're gonna have to get rid of him. He can't stick around. There's no way you're going to be able to continue to do business with Staley at the head of the table. And while it took a while for it to come to fruition, because, well, that's how shit moves in the financial sector. Finally, we're in a place where bitch ass Jess Staley is no longer in charge at Barclays. Staley only resigned in November last year after an investigation by City Watchdogs into how he characterized his relationship with the disgraced financier pedophile Epstein. And what, you think he just. He left because he's such a good guy? He felt bad? He felt remorseful? His moral compass started to work again. Zero chance Oldboy knew the writing was on the wall. And instead of being given his walking papers. Ah, you know, I'll just. Higgins meeting with the bank of England chiefs took place almost two years earlier in December 2019. It is understood Higgins letter was written just weeks after the death of Epstein in jail. So look, this is again, this has been going on for so long and behind the scenes with Barclays anyway. And it's all about the almighty dollar, all of these banks.
And look, I'm all about it, right?
Secure that bag. That's what we're all trying to do here. Let's not Cut corners. I'm never going to be somebody that is on people who worked hard to get where they are. And I don't care how much money you make. But does that mean you have to be a piece of shit human being? It seems like every time these people start making a bunch of dough, they become pieces of shit. Or maybe they already were. But the point is, just because you have a bunch of money, just because you have a bunch of power, doesn't mean you have to be an absolute prick. The missive is understood to have vouched that there was nothing improper in the relationship between Staley and Epstein and to have triggered the probe by regulators that eventually led to his departure from the bank. So basically just lying about things, right? The. The Higgins, Nigel Higgins lying about Epstein's relationship with Staley, covering for Staley, all because Staley was making him money at the bank. And that's what it comes down to. Do not misunderstand me here. It is all about money for these people. Every last thing they do, they wake up in the morning thinking about it. They go to bed, they think about it. Everything is about money. And they don't care about you or anyone else in their pursuit of it. The revelations will put a spotlight on judgment made by Barclays board almost two years before Staley's departure. Epstein had been a client of Staley's when the latter was a private banker at JP Morgan. He left the bank in 2013. Funny. Epstein happened to leave the bank soon after. Huh? Staley visited Epstein on his private island in the Caribbean on a sailing trip with his wife in 2015 to just months before taking charge of the High street bank. And it's funny when people are like, well, he was with his wife on the island. Well, maybe his wife is into weird shit too.
What?
You've never seen a couple that are into some gonzo ass weird shit? Of course there's people out there like that. And again, not judging. If you want to do whatever you want to do in your bedroom, and it includes you and your significant other, one of you dressing as an alligator or a crocodile and the other one dressing as Steve Irwin, I don't care.
That's cool.
Have fun, have a blast, Enjoy. As long as it's between consenting adults, what happens in anyone's bedroom or anyone's love life is certainly not my business. But this dude down on this island hanging out and then to say, oh, well, I was with my wife, like that's an excuse. Breaking news. 38% of people involved in human Trafficking as traffickers are women. So that's not really a defense in itself. The investigation into Staley's 65 first became public in early 2020, at which point the board said it had full confidence in him. Remember what I said during that time? They do not have full confidence in him. I didn't have like a line directly to their boardroom or whatever. But if you listen to the whispers in the financial sector, the whispers on Wall street, it tells you everything you need to know. And, and those whispers had been that Jeff Staley was in serious trouble. He stepped down four months ago upon seeing the findings of the inquiry, which are not yet public. Staley has always insisted he had a purely professional relationship with Epstein. He intends to contest the conclusions of the probe. So they must be brutal, right? If he plans to contest the conclusions of the probe and he ended up losing his job for all of this, you know that every single thing in that report is going to be brutal for Jess Staley's bitch ass.
He said in 2020, with hindsight, with
what we know now, I deeply regret having any relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. But added that he had been very transparent. Do all of these people play from the same playbook? They all say the same thing. I deeply, I deeply regret my relationship with Epstein.
Bitch.
You knew who he was. It was after his conviction. Don't act like you had no idea who you were hanging out with. Barclays said. It should be noted the investigation makes no findings that Mr. Staley saw or was aware of any of Mr. Epstein's alleged crimes, which was the central question underpinning Barclay's support for Mr. Staley. Following the arrest of Mr. Epstein in the summer of 2019, the bank of England and the FCA declined to comment. Look, it's all BS. Jeff Staley knew the deal. He knew what was up. In my opinion anyway, him and Jeffrey Epstein were super tight. You don't make those kind of money move money moves for somebody and not be sharing a stake with them. All right? And we're talking hundreds of millions of dollars. And furthermore, while I can't, you know, prove this, how many of those deals that Staley was facilitating were made with ill gotten gains? And thus how deep would Staley be if we had a real investigation here, if we had an investigation that included rico. Alright folks, that's gonna do it for episode number one of the day.

Release Date: May 14, 2026
Episode Focus: Deep dive into former banking executive Jes Staley’s legal battle over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, examining JP Morgan Chase’s strategy, institutional complicity, and broader implications for the financial industry and justice for Epstein’s victims.
In this episode, Bobby Capucci delivers a fiery, comprehensive breakdown of the ongoing legal saga involving Jes Staley (former JP Morgan and Barclays executive) as he faces lawsuits from both JP Morgan and the US Virgin Islands, all stemming from his longstanding relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Bobby scrutinizes not just Staley's actions but the systemic failures and alleged coverups within JP Morgan, the financial sector at large, and government entities. Through a blend of news reports, personal opinion, and sharp-tongued commentary, Bobby questions the culture of impunity among financial elites and points to the lack of real accountability for Epstein’s enablers.
Timestamp: 00:00 — 07:20
“I find it a bit laughable that JP Morgan is going to try and act like they had no idea what was going on and it was all just Staley’s fault. The institutions, the financial institutions never take responsibility for anything. There's always a fall guy.” (00:24)
Timestamp: 03:00 — 11:30
"While Jes Staley owns the lion's share here — for JP Morgan to act like they had no idea, I’m not buying that." (06:55)
“They should have been hit with RICO right away because all of these people… sending money to his bank, receiving money — all of them would get caught up in that dragnet and all of them would be charged.” (03:05)
Timestamp: 11:40 — 19:10
“It’s almost like that Spider-Man meme, right, where Spider-Man’s pointing at Spider-Man and then Spider-Man’s pointing back at another Spider-Man.” (13:33)
Timestamp: 16:00 — 21:45
“We have never heard that Jeff Staley was an abuser before. We had only heard that he was an enabler. Well, now that conversation has to change, right?” (17:03)
“All of you should go down. I’d like to see JP Morgan and Jes Staley get equally slapped with liability here.” (21:08)
Timestamp: 19:12 — 24:59
“Why don’t you start…with George Mitchell? Why don’t you start with Bill Richardson? Why would you be worried about Tom Hanks?” (22:43)
Timestamp: 13:50 — 15:33
“You mean to tell me, the US Virgin Islands…they deserve to take money out of the fund that was supposed to go to the survivors? How is that even acceptable on any level?” (14:15)
Timestamp: 31:14 — 39:47
“I’m not going to do business with someone who is enabling Jeffrey Epstein.” (36:13)
“It’s always a revolving door for these people… Regulators or otherwise. They end up getting a job in the financial sector, working for the very people they were supposed to be regulating.” (37:45)
Timestamp: 30:45 — 45:30
“Bitch. You knew who he was. It was after his conviction. Don’t act like you had no idea who you were hanging out with.” (45:46)
Timestamp: 45:30 — End
“The only way that this is ever going to hurt anybody is if people are indicted and people go to jail. But we know from past experiences that that is not going to happen.” (53:47)
“There's always a fall guy, there’s always a reason why, and there’s always an excuse — you know what there never is? Jail sentences for these scumbags, the modern-day robber barons.”
(Bobby Capucci, 00:40)
“If you think it was only Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell doing this, I got news for you. It wasn’t.”
(Bobby Capucci, 02:48)
“The institutions… never take responsibility for anything.”
(Bobby Capucci, 00:26)
On survivor justice:
“How is it that the US Virgin Islands, who facilitated Jeffrey Epstein's BS at the very least enabled it, deserve to take money out of the fund that was supposed to go to the survivors?”
(Bobby Capucci, 14:15)
On Boardroom Dynamics:
“He could have at any time walked into one of those offices of Jamie Dimon or any of those other hotshots and said... Epstein’s a piece of — We can’t work with this guy. But instead, you were going down the island and dunking your nuts in his Jacuzzi at the same time, talking about Snow White…”
(Bobby Capucci, 19:49)
On the whole saga:
“It’s almost like we have a battle royale going on — Al Qaeda versus the Taliban versus ISIS… There’s no good guy here. All the people involved in this lawsuit are all scum.”
(Bobby Capucci, 53:12)
This episode delivers a blistering, unfiltered look at how deep Jeffrey Epstein’s criminal network reached into global finance, how institutions scramble to avoid true accountability, and the persistent lack of justice for survivors. Bobby Capucci’s raw, irreverent style spotlights the failures from boardrooms to regulators and questions the integrity of industry and government players alike.
