The release of thousands of emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s personal account has detonated across politics and business. In the UK, Peter Mandelson — once a towering figure in Labour politics — was exposed as far closer to Epstein than he had admitted, referring to him as his “best pal” and even defending him after his conviction. The backlash was swift: Prime Minister Keir Starmer dismissed Mandelson from his ambassadorship, and his consultancy firm Global Counsel announced it would cut him out entirely, leaving his reputation and career in ruins.

In the United States, Epstein’s shadow now hangs over Congress. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is pushing to force the Department of Justice to release every Epstein file within 30 days, including FBI reports, plea deal records, and potentially even intelligence documents. The move could unearth years of hidden material, but it has both parties rattled, since Epstein’s network spanned Democrats and Republicans alike. For survivors and the public, it represents the closest chance yet to break through the wall of secrecy that has long shielded Epstein’s protectors.

The most grotesque revelations come from the emails tying Ghislaine Maxwell even more tightly to Epstein. Beyond her role managing his properties and finances, the correspondence shows her planning fertility treatments with him — laying out procedures, timing, and logistics for having children together. This detail obliterates Maxwell’s longstanding defense that she was distant from Epstein, revealing instead a relationship that was personal, operational, and intimate. Together, these headlines underscore that the Epstein story is still unraveling, and that every new leak peels back another layer of protection around the elite who enabled him.
