Chuck Schumer Makes Huge Admission About Epstein Files
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, perhaps accidentally, engaged in a moment of truth when responding to a reporter’s inquiry, saying that Americans are asking why the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s files were not released during President Joe Biden’s term.
“Why wouldn’t they have been released the last four years when President Biden was in office?” a reporter asked Schumer.
“That’s the question every American is asking. Not every American, but so many Americans are asking. What the hell is [Donald Trump] hiding? Why didin’t he want them released? Schumer said, immediately pivoting to blaming President Donald Trump.
Documents released by the US Justice Department show that a friend of the sole representative of the US Virgin Islands in the U.S. Congress asked Jeffrey Epstein to help set up a meeting between the politician and Schumer.
The contact with Epstein was made on behalf of Stacey Plaskett, who is the islands’ representative in the House of Representatives. Plaskett was trying to get Schumer to help the Caribbean recover from two hurricanes in 2017, according to the documents.
“We have to help Stacey get a meeting with Schumer. Any thoughts?” Erika Kellerhals, a tax lawyer in the US Virgin Islands, wrote to Epstein in an email on January 24, 2018.
“[S]hould not be a problem need to know the reason and subject,” Epstein wrote back a few hours later.
“She has been unable to confirm a meeting with him. He is driving the disaster relief bill and has only been talking about Puerto Rico and not the [Virgin Islands]. She’s concerned we will be ignored,” Kellerhals told Epstein in response.
After his conversation with Kellerhals, Epstein emailed Kathy Ruemmler, who used to be the chief counsel for US President Barack Obama, and asked her to help him set up a meeting with Schumer.
“schumer is driving the puerto rico . virgin islands relief=bill. the VI congressional rep Stacey plaskett , h=s not been able to get a meeting. confirmed with him. ca= you help?” Epstein wrote to Ruemmler, who is now the chief lawyer to Goldman Sachs.
“I do not have any relations=ip with him, but let me see whether I can get to his COS,” Ruemmler said in response, referring to his chief of staff.
Newly released Epstein-related records also show that fundraisers working for top Democratic leaders, like Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, asked Epstein for campaign donations and to attend fundraising events years after he was convicted of sex crimes in 2008.
According to The Washington Times, records show that partner Darren Rigger of the political fundraising firm Dynamic SRG repeatedly reached out to Epstein on behalf of well-known Democratic lawmakers.
On September 18, 2012, Epstein was invited to an event called “Schumer Senate Candidate Reception” to help then-Rep. Martin Heinrich’s successful campaign for the New Mexico Senate.
Fundraisers said that the event was important for Democrats to keep their Senate majority and support Obama’s reelection.
The Times also reported that fundraisers asked Epstein to help New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (who was a House member at the time) and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York.
Rigger invited Epstein to a fundraising dinner with President Obama in May 2013 on behalf of Jeffries.
He called the Brooklyn congressman “one of the rising stars” in the New York delegation and “Brooklyn’s Barack.”
Later that same year, more requests for information related to Jeffries came in.
Reports from outside sources have confirmed that Jeffries and Dynamic SRG did try to raise money in 2013.
Jeffries has said in public that he didn’t know about the outreach that was done in his name and that he has never met Epstein.
According to records from the Federal Election Commission, Epstein did not give any money to Jeffries’ campaign.
As recently as July 2017, Epstein was invited to a dinner and meet-and-greet with Hakeem Jeffries in St. Thomas.
BREAKING: Savannah Guthrie’s husband VANISHES in the middle of the night… and what his wife just revealed will SHOCK you to your core!
In a chilling turn of events that has gripped the nation, whispers of mystery surround the family of NBC’s “Today” show co-host Savannah Guthrie.
Late-breaking reports suggest her husband, Michael Feldman, suddenly disappeared under the cover of darkness, sparking frantic speculation across social media and beyond.
But in a heartbreaking revelation, Savannah herself has broken her silence with a detail no one saw coming—shifting the spotlight to an even darker family crisis.
The drama began unfolding in early February when Savannah’s 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, vanished from her Tucson, Arizona home in what authorities describe as a possible abduction.
Blood drops on the porch, tampered security cameras, and chilling doorbell footage pointed to foul play.
Police quickly ruled out family involvement, including Savannah, her siblings, and Michael Feldman, clearing them as suspects.
Yet the search dragged on for weeks, with hundreds of investigators chasing over 20,000 tips and no arrests.
Amid the agony, Michael Feldman—communications consultant and devoted father of two—became a quiet pillar of strength. He shuttled between New York and Arizona, supporting Savannah as she stepped away from the “Today” show.
He made an emotional visit to her colleagues, leaving many in tears as he expressed graтιтude for the outpouring of love. Public sightings showed him somber yet composed, escorting the children through airports and arriving in Tucson to stand by his wife.
Then came the bombshell: Savannah, fighting back tears in a raw Instagram video, announced the family is now offering up to $1 million in reward money for information leading to her mother’s safe return—pushing the total pot to $1.2 million with law enforcement contributions.
“We are aching,” she said. “We still believe in a miracle… but we need to know where she is. Someone knows how to find our mom and bring her home.”
The plea came on day 24 of the disappearance, as volunteers defied warnings to scour the desert and conspiracy theories swirled online.
While rumors of Michael’s “sudden vanishing” may stem from misreported sightings or heightened anxiety, the reality is far more tragic: the entire family remains united in desperation.
Feldman has shared FBI-released surveillance of a potential suspect and spoken out sparingly, urging the public to call 1-800-CALL-FBI anonymously.
No ransom demands have been confirmed, but the targeted nature of the incident raises haunting questions.
As the investigation intensifies with federal involvement, the Guthries cling to hope. Savannah’s revelation isn’t about her husband’s disappearance—it’s a desperate cry for answers in a nightmare that has stolen her mother and shaken a nation.
Will the million-dollar reward unlock the truth, or will the darkness of that fateful night forever haunt this high-profile family? The world watches, prays, and waits.
