UPDATE: Christopher Steele confirms link between Epstein and Russian organized crime and kompromat.
We have all heard the stories of diplomats going to Moscow and getting caught in kompromat — compromising situations on video — by the Russians. The infamous Pee Tape is an example, though not proven. But we all, or at least I individually, assumed it stopped at the Russian border. In light of Friday’s (Jan. 30) Epstein file dump, that was a bad assumption.
The clear possibility is that Jeffrey Epstein was running Putin’s kompromat operation in the West, involving sexual, "honeytrap" tactics, targeting elites, diplomats, and intelligence.

Russian Connections and Kompromat: Documents released on Friday revealed thousands of mentions of Moscow and Vladimir Putin, with sources alleging that Epstein had contacts with Russian officials and aimed to create kompromat for Russian interests.
Intelligence Involvement: Some analysts and reports indicate that Epstein's actions might have been linked to foreign intelligence services, specifically Russian intelligence or the KGB/FSBand Israel’s Mossad.
Targeting Elites: The alleged operation targeted influential individuals in politics, business, and media, potentially using recorded sexual encounters to secure leverage.
Context of Past Ties: Epstein’s connections may have originated from his ties to Robert Maxwell, the father of Ghislaine Maxwell, who was suspected of having long-standing intelligence links.
Direct Links to Putin: Released court documents reveal over 1,000 mentions of Vladimir Putin and nearly 10,000 mentions of Moscow in Epstein's files. Correspondence from 2011 suggests Epstein planned to meet with Putin and claimed to have "a friend of Putin's" who could assist with Russian visas.
Recruitment of Russian Women: Emails show Epstein and his associates specifically targeted and recruited young Russian women to introduce to high-profile associates, such as Prince Andrew.
Backchannel Diplomacy: Epstein reportedly acted as a high-level "fixer" or "access agent," facilitating secret backchannels between Israeli intelligence and the Kremlin regarding geopolitical issues like the Syrian civil war.
Organized Crime Ties: American law enforcement agencies have long suspected Epstein of having ties to Russian organized crime, which may have used him as a tool for leverage or blackmail.
Despite these connections, Epstein's true allegiance remains a subject of intense speculation. Other investigations have strongly suggested he was an asset for Israeli intelligence (Mossad), while some former officials, such as former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, have categorically denied any official state involvement.
Marjorie Taylor Greene reported that Trump said his friends might get hurt. It may have been his favorite friend or group of friends he was protecting. And it might be Treason.
