Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers Reveals Confidant Relationship with Jeffrey Epstein in Emails Released Amid Ongoing Controversy.
A trove of previously undisclosed emails between former US Treasury Secretary Larry Summers and convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has shed new light on the nature of their relationship, revealing a complex web of friendship and shared interests that spanned politics, philanthropy, and personal relationships.
The exchange of emails, which span from 2013 to early 2019, provides a glimpse into the intimate and often unseemly views of Summers and Epstein on sensitive topics such as politics, social networking, and women. In one instance, Summers confided in Epstein about his romantic gestures toward an unnamed woman, only to be rebuffed.
In another email exchange, Epstein expressed discomfort with Trump's presidency, stating that the American elite "think if u murder your baby by beating and abandonment it must be irrelevant to your admission to Harvard." The remark was met with a stern warning from Summers, cautioning against repeating the insight and assuring Epstein not to hit on women at work.
The revelations have sparked renewed questions about Summers's association with Epstein, who was accused of running a wide-ranging child sex trafficking operation before his death in 2019. Summers has previously expressed regret over maintaining contact with Epstein after his conviction.
Summers's past interactions with Epstein date back to the 1990s when Epstein donated significantly to Harvard University. At that time, Summers held the presidency of the university and served as a leading light in Democratic circles. However, questions surrounding his connection to Epstein have lingered.
The latest release of emails by Republican legislators suggests that Summers maintained close contact with Epstein until months before his arrest. The emails further blur the lines between Summers's personal and professional relationships, sparking debate over the nature of their confidant relationship.
In a statement, Trump expressed interest in investigating Epstein's involvement with prominent Democrats, including Summers, as well as business leaders. The release of the 20,000 emails by Republican lawmakers has reignited controversy surrounding Epstein's connections to prominent figures in politics and beyond.

Like how is this even a thing? Larry Summers, one of the most powerful people in US politics, was friends with a monster like Jeffrey Epstein? It's wild to think about all the times they hung out, shared ideas and stuff... meanwhile, Epstein was running around like a psychopath 
. I mean, what's next? Is Trump going to say "I knew him when..."? 
And Summers is trying to play it cool now, saying he regretted being friends with Epstein after the whole thing went down... yeah right 
. It's all about who you know and who they are connected to in power 
.
... I mean, Larry Summers was like, a big deal in politics and he's friends with Jeffrey Epstein? Like, how does that even happen? And what's even crazier is that they're emailing each other about these super private stuffs like women and social networking. It's like, who talks about this stuff in emails? 
. I mean, I get it, money can talk, but come on! You'd think someone would have said something if they were this close to him.
.
i mean what kind of person confides in someone about romantic gestures towards a woman, or gets upset when epstein says something racist 
anyway its clear now that summers has some serious explaining to do 
but got rebuffed 
and now people are wondering if summers knew more than he let on 
and republicans just released 20k emails
