According to Senator Ron Wyden, it’s not just Trump, and it’s not just Pam Bondi, who are halting the release of the Epstein files. It is also Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Evidently, the Treasury Department holds thousands of detailed financial records documenting Jeffrey Epstein’s transactions, and Senator Wyden has been trying—unsuccessfully—to obtain access to them. Bessent has denied him.

Follow the money. Senator Wyden just released a stunning new report released where he’s continuing to apply pressure, not only by releasing this new report but also by publicly calling out JP Morgan Chase executives. According to Wyden, the bank didn’t simply inadvertently fail to report suspicious activity as required; they allegedly kept quiet because they wanted to continue doing business with Epstein. He was one of the bank’s single largest clients and part of an elite client group called the“wall of cash”

In addition to the report, the Senate Finance Committee has now subpoenaed JP Morgan Chase for further information related to the Epstein documents. Wyden made this statement on X when releasing the report:

“You all know I’ve been after the Treasury Department’s own Epstein file. It’s a set of thousands of detailed bank records, a map of Epstein’s financial network. Secretary Bessent is blocking its release and he denies it’s even something Treasury should be investigating. So it’s not just Trump and Bondi running interference for pedophiles. Bessent is a key part of the Epstein coverup. I plan to seek Senate approval of my bill to force the Treasury to release its Epstein file in the coming weeks because we need to keep on following the money.”
