Black already employed the best tax and estate planning advisors in the country. He didn’t need Epstein’s advice, and he certainly didn’t have any reason to pay Epstein at rates several times greater than he was paying actual tax professionals.

Black paid Epstein $170 million over just a few years in the 2010s. He’s claimed the payments were for tax advice, which doesn’t hold up at all.
Wall Street titan Leon Black was among Epstein’s primary sources of income. Their relationship went back to the 1990s, but Black flooded Epstein with cash in the years Epstein was a registered sex offender.
Newest in my Epstein investigation: A man who was one of Epstein’s key sources of cash has a lot of questions to answer.

In the past six months of Trump’s Big Ugly Bill, fewer women and families are getting critical medical care, and many more are facing skyrocketing health costs.
I’m partnering with @warren.senate.gov and @wyden.senate.gov to help expose how health care cuts endanger access to lifesaving care.

NEWS: Continuing Epstein Investigation, Wyden Questions Leon Black over New Revelations in Epstein Files, Appearance of “Hush Money” Payments and Surveillance of Women
Senator Mullin failed to demonstrate even a basic understanding of constitutional rights and due process. It is clear he would continue the abuses at DHS and support Stephen Miller and JD Vance’s violent policies. I voted no.
Jared Kushner makes up for his flaws as an investor by being a wildly corrupt appendage of his father-in-law’s wildly corrupt administration. The U.S. becomes less safe and more corrupt every day Jared Kushner remains involved in our political system.

We’re grateful for the partnership of Senator Wyden @wyden.senate.gov and other leaders in Congress to get this money back.
Kash Patel refused to deny that the FBI is buying up Americans' location data. This is a shocking end run around the 4th amendment and exactly why we need to pass real privacy reforms NOW.

Wyden to Gabbard: "Last year, your agencies testified 'Iran's large conventional forces are capable of inflicting substantial damage to an attacker, executing regional strikes & disrupting shipping, particularly through Hormuz.' In other words, every problem were seeing now was predicted"
This is stunning interference. The document I’m after literally says “unclassified” at the top. The investigation it details is closed. Given Blanche's close personal ties to Donald Trump, this reeks of a continued coverup to protect key names in the Trump administration.
My Finance Committee team immediately sought key documents from that investigation. What was the result, and why did the investigation end? We were notified that the DEA intended to release those documents to the Finance Committee.
Then Deputy AG Todd Blanche intervened.
Recent reporting revealed that Epstein was one of several targets of a big drug trafficking investigation a decade ago. DEA has key info. Based on what we know, Epstein was likely pumping his victims, young women and girls, with incapacitating drugs to facilitate abuse.
HUGE: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche — Trump's former personal lawyer who was also responsible for Ghislaine Maxwell's transfer to a cushy club fed — has intervened to block the DEA from providing details of a mysterious Epstein investigation to my Finance Committee team.
NEW: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche is blocking the DEA from releasing an unredacted document from the Epstein files about an investigation involving drug trafficking & money laundering, according to a letter @wyden.senate.gov sent to Blanche Tuesday

In their wildest fantasies about Hunter Biden, Republicans didn't come up with anything half as corrupt as what Kushner is doing in front of our eyes every day. He's handling US foreign policy at the exact same time that he's taking billions from the Saudi dictator.
Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.
The government can legally scoop up and read Americans' emails and texts, track everywhere they go, and feed huge amounts of data into AI without court oversight. Next month, Congress will have a chance to rein it all in. I'm leading a bipartisan bill to restore real privacy.
The USPS has quietly been making changes that will have a big impact for people who mail their tax returns and ballots in this consequential election year. I've got questions about how these changes will hurt vote-by-mail states like Oregon this November.
