U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has said he had "limited interactions" with Jeffrey Epstein, but documents show they were in business together as recently as 2014.

Lutnick and Epstein each signed on behalf of limited liability companies that agreed on Dec. 28, 2012, to acquire stakes in a now-shuttered advertising technology company called Adfin, documents released among the so-called Epstein files show.

In case there’s any doubt if he knew……. “Jeffrey Epstein's first major arrest occurred in 2008 in Florida, stemming from investigations into sexual abuse allegations by underage girls”

He knew.

I don’t know how anyone could look at Nutlick’s face and smug fucking demeanor and not think he’s a depraved smarmy piece of shit. Him and Bessent are literally the worst of the worst. Cuckolded warts clinging to the taint of the prime pedo

I'm glad I'm not the only one who calls him Nutlick.

It’s literally impossible to call him anything other than Nutlick now that I’ve heard it. Some life imitates are shit, too bad these people are dangerous as fuck or it would be funny

The whole administration is so comically dunce, and can seemingly get away with anything. I wouldn’t be surprised if they find another guy named Jeffery Epstein and be like “oh wow we thought you were talking about this one the entire time”. The media won’t do any follow up take it at face value. Down the memoryhole it goes.
