Podcasts about Wexner

Les Wexner earned the nickname “King of Columbus” because of the immense economic, cultural, and political footprint he left on the city of Columbus, Ohio. As the founder of The Limited in 1963, which later became L Brands, Wexner transformed a single women's clothing store into a retail juggernaut that included brands like Victoria's Secret, Bath & Body Works, and Express. His success generated enormous wealth, much of which he funneled back into his hometown through philanthropy, real estate development, and civic influence. Wexner's donations helped shape major institutions, including Ohio State University and the Columbus Foundation, while entire areas of Columbus' expansion were tied to his investments and leadership. This combination of business dominance and local control made him, for decades, the city's unofficial monarch — the “King of Columbus.”In recent years, however, Les Wexner has steadily reduced his financial footprint in L Brands, the company that built his empire. By mid-2021, he had sold off a massive portion of his holdings — unloading approximately $2.7 billion worth of stock — leaving him with only about a 2 percent stake in the company he once commanded. The sales came amid L Brands' restructuring and the eventual separation of Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works into standalone companies. With those divestments, Wexner's era as a retail titan effectively closed, signaling a retreat from the empire he had ruled for nearly six decades.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Les Wexner, billionaire founder of L Brands and longtime Epstein associate, has poured significant money into Republican politics over the years. He was a high-profile donor in the 2012 presidential race, hosting fundraisers for Mitt Romney and giving $250,000 to the pro-Romney “Restore Our Future” super PAC. In 2015, he chipped in another $500,000 to Jeb Bush's “Right to Rise” PAC, solidifying his reputation as one of Ohio's most influential GOP financiers. For decades, Wexner's name appeared in donor rolls tied to party machinery, think tanks, and candidates who benefited from his wealth.Then came the dramatic “I quit the GOP” moment in 2018, when Wexner loudly declared he was leaving the Republican Party, citing differences with its modern direction. But, irony alert—despite the public distancing act, he was back in the donor headlines in 2022, cutting a $250,000 check to the Republican Governors Association. So much for walking away. It seems that, like many billionaires, Wexner can't quite resist keeping his influence alive where it counts—inside the political cash pipeline.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein's relationship with Les Wexner, the longtime CEO of L Brands and the architect of Victoria's Secret's rise, was a slow-acting poison that ultimately helped unravel both the man and the brand. Epstein gained extraordinary control over Wexner's finances in the 1990s, wielding power that allowed him to cultivate influence far beyond what his background should have permitted. By embedding himself so deeply in Wexner's inner circle and finances, Epstein's presence tainted Wexner's empire. When Epstein's predatory behavior and sex trafficking network came to light, questions inevitably turned to how he had managed to accumulate such wealth and power. Wexner's long-standing ties to him made it impossible to avoid scrutiny, and the public began to see Victoria's Secret not only as a lingerie company but as part of a much darker web of manipulation and exploitation.The damage didn't stop at Wexner's personal reputation. Victoria's Secret, once a symbol of glamour and unattainable beauty standards, began to collapse under mounting scandals and changing cultural tides. Epstein's alleged use of Victoria's Secret branding to lure and groom young women into his orbit cast an especially damning shadow over the company. As survivors and investigators pointed out these links, the brand's image of empowerment and fantasy shattered, accelerating its decline in an already shifting retail landscape. Wexner ultimately stepped down from L Brands, leaving behind a legacy forever stained by his association with Epstein. The downfall of both the mogul and his lingerie empire was not simply about changing tastes—it was about exposure, complicity, and the corrosive impact of having Epstein at the center of power.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein, Glenn Dubin, and Les Wexner's collective ties to Harvard University expose a deeply unsettling nexus of wealth, influence, and compromised morality within one of the world's most prestigious academic institutions. Epstein, despite his 2008 conviction, donated millions to Harvard, including $6.5 million to the Program for Evolutionary Dynamics, securing not only access to the university's intellectual elite but also legitimacy that helped launder his reputation. Glenn Dubin, a hedge fund billionaire and close Epstein associate, reinforced these connections through philanthropy and elite social networks, while his wife, Eva Andersson-Dubin, had an even more personal history with Epstein, further entwining Harvard's image with the scandal. Les Wexner, Epstein's most significant benefactor and a longtime Harvard donor himself, indirectly strengthened Epstein's foothold within the institution, with his fortune and backing lending weight to Epstein's cultivated status as a man of ideas and influence. Together, these men leveraged Harvard's prestige as both a shield and a stage, providing Epstein with credibility in academic and scientific circles that should have been out of reach for a registered sex offender.Harvard's willingness to accept and defend these relationships, even after Epstein's criminal record was public, reflects not only institutional greed but also a failure of ethical leadership. While Harvard has since tried to distance itself, the revelations that Epstein maintained an office on campus, retained connections with professors, and used his donations to secure influence long after his conviction speak to a systemic rot. Wexner's fortune, Dubin's networks, and Epstein's money intersected at Harvard in ways that revealed how elite institutions often prioritize financial gain over moral responsibility. Rather than protecting its integrity or safeguarding its reputation, Harvard enabled Epstein's rehabilitation, offering him cover while he cultivated ties with powerful men like Dubin and Wexner. In doing so, the university not only failed its own values but also became an unwitting accomplice in sustaining the ecosystem that allowed Epstein to thrive.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Les Wexner, the billionaire founder of L Brands and Victoria's Secret, has alleged that Jeffrey Epstein stole millions of dollars from him while serving as his personal money manager. Wexner gave Epstein sweeping power of attorney in the early 1990s, allowing him control over financial and real estate transactions. When Wexner severed ties with him in 2007, he said he discovered that Epstein had misappropriated a significant amount of money, with at least $46 million identified as funds taken without authorization. Wexner claimed that some of this money was supposed to support his charitable foundation but was instead diverted by Epstein.Despite the large sum, Wexner has never disclosed the full extent of what was allegedly stolen, nor has he clarified why Epstein was granted such unchecked financial authority. Reports suggest that Epstein's control over Wexner's finances allowed him to access charitable funds and move money with little oversight. Wexner has publicly insisted that he was one of Epstein's victims, but critics have pointed out that he has never fully explained how such theft went unnoticed for years or whether authorities were ever asked to investigate the alleged financial misconduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://abcnews.go.com/US/billionaire-businessman-leslie-wexner-refuses-reveal-full-scope/story?id=68461262Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell was handed a big win in court by Judge Preska, rejecting an attempt by the Miami Herald and Julie K.

One of the more fascinating side battles that we have seen during this Epstein fallout is the one currently being waged by Alan Dershowtiz and Les Wexner. The two are embroiled in a bitter back and forth in front of Judge Preska as Dershowitz attempts to drag Wexner into his lawsuit with Virginia Roberts. Les Wexner, for his part, is doing everything in his power to avoid this from occurring, setting up a huge battle on the horizon.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.courthousenews.com/ex-victorias-secret-ceo-takes-center-stage-in-alan-dershowitz-fight/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Les Wexner was subpoenaed by Alan Dershowitz as part of Dershowitz's counterclaims in the defamation suit brought by Virginia Giuffre. Dershowitz issued subpoenas in April 2020 demanding that Wexner and his attorney John Zeiger produce documents and give deposition testimony concerning Giuffre's allegations, including those related to Jeffrey EpsteinWexner's legal side objected to the subpoenas, arguing that many of the requested records are protected by attorney-client privilege or otherwise confidential. They also claimed Dershowitz's request was designed primarily to attack Giuffre's credibility rather than uncover relevant facts, and that much of what Dershowitz seeks is inadmissible or irrelevant to the core issues of the case.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comSource:https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/ny-dershowitz-wexner-epstein-giuffre-20200810-d56q3emu2rhsrpt3ennvmp4vru-story.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Les Wexner is a billionaire businessman known for founding L Brands, the parent company of Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works. His relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, a financier and convicted sex offender, has drawn attention due to their close association.Wexner and Epstein's relationship dates back to the 1980s, when Wexner entrusted Epstein with managing his finances. Epstein also served as Wexner's financial advisor and was given power of attorney over Wexner's affairs. Through this connection, Epstein gained significant influence and access to Wexner's wealth.Wexner reportedly granted Epstein control over his vast fortune, including properties and assets, which Epstein allegedly used to enhance his own wealth and lifestyle. Epstein's association with Wexner also provided him with credibility and connections within elite circles.Their relationship came under scrutiny after Epstein's arrest and subsequent conviction on charges of sex trafficking of minors. Epstein reportedly used his association with Wexner to gain access to wealthy and influential individuals, which contributed to the controversy surrounding their connection.Wexner has since claimed that he severed ties with Epstein in the early 2000s and denounced him following Epstein's criminal charges. However, questions remain about the extent of their relationship and the nature of Wexner's involvement with Epstein's activities, namely the credible accusations leveled against him.In this episode we dive into the white washing of Wexners relationship and how many in the legacy media still continue to miss the bigger picture.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Will Ohio State cut ties with Les Wexner's over Jeffrey Epstein scandal?

The allegations that Jeffrey Epstein “stole” vast sums of money from Les Wexner—often claimed to be in the hundreds of millions—rest on shaky ground at best. The core of the story is that Wexner, the billionaire founder of L Brands, granted Epstein sweeping power of attorney in the late 1980s and early 1990s, allowing him to control bank accounts, sign checks, and move assets. Later, when Epstein's crimes came under scrutiny, reports circulated that he had misappropriated funds, especially tied to properties like the Manhattan townhouse that Wexner originally purchased but never lived in. Yet the narrative of Epstein as a con man who somehow duped one of the most seasoned and ruthless retail moguls into parting with a fortune seems questionable. Wexner is no naïve novice; he built a multibillion-dollar empire, commanded armies of lawyers and accountants, and had access to every safeguard a billionaire could deploy. To suggest he simply “didn't notice” Epstein siphoning off hundreds of millions strains credulity.It's far more likely that the theft story serves as a retroactive smokescreen, a convenient way for Wexner to distance himself from a relationship that became toxic once Epstein's name was synonymous with sex trafficking. Claiming to be a victim of fraud casts Wexner as a dupe rather than an enabler, while muddying the public record about how deep their financial ties really ran. If Epstein truly “stole” such staggering amounts, why weren't there lawsuits, asset recovery actions, or criminal referrals at the time? The silence speaks volumes. A billionaire losing hundreds of millions without raising alarms is an improbable scenario. What seems more plausible is that Epstein was entrusted with money and power because he served a purpose—whether as a fixer, a gatekeeper, or a handler—and that only after Epstein became radioactive did the theft narrative emerge as a convenient form of damage control.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9668449/How-Jeffrey-Epstein-squeezed-financial-advisor-Les-Wexner.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein's relationship with Les Wexner was not just financial—it was the foundation of Epstein's rise from a mysterious money manager to a figure embedded in the world of extreme wealth and power. Wexner, the billionaire founder of L Brands and longtime CEO of Victoria's Secret, granted Epstein unprecedented access to his fortune, his homes, and his reputation. Epstein was given power of attorney over Wexner's finances, a level of trust so unusual it raised questions about the true nature of their bond. This arrangement allowed Epstein to control massive sums of Wexner's wealth, acquire luxury properties, and build the image of legitimacy he later used to lure victims and cultivate influence..Yet Wexner has long insisted that he, too, was deceived by Epstein, claiming that Epstein stole money and betrayed his trust. That narrative, however, collapses under scrutiny. Maria Farmer's testimony places abuse at Wexner's heavily guarded Ohio estate, and Epstein's use of Wexner's assets—such as the Manhattan townhouse he effectively gifted him—suggests far more than a duped investor. The fact that Wexner enabled Epstein's ascent, while escaping the same level of media and legal accountability as other Epstein associates, underscores how wealth and influence insulated him. Their relationship was not incidental; it was the keystone that transformed Epstein from a grifter into a predator with access to the corridors of power.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Five former Ohio State wrestlers—who say they were victims of the late Dr. Richard Strauss—authored a letter in early February 2020, urging Ohio's Inspector General to investigate Les and Abigail Wexner. In their five-page appeal, they request two investigations: first, into Abigail Wexner's alleged role in Jeffrey Epstein's assault of Maria Farmer at the Wexners' New Albany estate; and second, into any relationship between Epstein, the Wexner family, and Ohio State University. The wrestlers specifically cite Abigail's position as vice chair of OSU's Board of Trustees and question why the university continues its ties with the Wexners amid such serious allegationsThe letter further emphasizes parallels between how Ohio State ignored complaints against Strauss and its handling of Epstein-related allegations. The wrestlers assert that the university has repeatedly turned a blind eye to sexual abuse and “offers only the pretense of caring,” especially given Epstein's significant contributions—including to the Wexner Football Facility—and his donor relationship with OSU. They argue that to properly address the abuse legacy and protect current and future students, the university must sever any inappropriate ties with "pedophiles and sex traffickers and those who enabled them, including both Abigail and Leslie Wexner."to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/former-ohio-state-wrestlers-call-investigation-university-s-ties-jeffrey-n1134071Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein's relationship with Les Wexner was not just financial—it was the foundation of Epstein's rise from a mysterious money manager to a figure embedded in the world of extreme wealth and power. Wexner, the billionaire founder of L Brands and longtime CEO of Victoria's Secret, granted Epstein unprecedented access to his fortune, his homes, and his reputation. Epstein was given power of attorney over Wexner's finances, a level of trust so unusual it raised questions about the true nature of their bond. This arrangement allowed Epstein to control massive sums of Wexner's wealth, acquire luxury properties, and build the image of legitimacy he later used to lure victims and cultivate influence..Yet Wexner has long insisted that he, too, was deceived by Epstein, claiming that Epstein stole money and betrayed his trust. That narrative, however, collapses under scrutiny.

Jeffrey Epstein's ties to billionaire retail magnate Les Wexner remain some of the most enigmatic and disturbing in the entire saga. Wexner, founder of L Brands and the empire behind Victoria's Secret, gave Epstein power of attorney over his finances in the 1990s—an almost unprecedented level of control. This arrangement effectively gave Epstein sweeping access to Wexner's fortune, properties, and business dealings, despite Epstein having no formal background in finance. Epstein used this trust to enrich himself, acquiring Wexner's Manhattan townhouse—the largest private residence in the city—under circumstances that remain suspicious. Many have questioned why Wexner, a seasoned and shrewd businessman, would hand over his empire's keys to a man with a checkered past and no credentials to warrant such trust.The depth of this relationship is further underscored by the fact that Epstein's social ascent was largely built on Wexner's backing. The fortune, credibility, and connections Epstein enjoyed were in large part derived from his inexplicable hold over Wexner. Even after the ties supposedly dissolved, Wexner continued to face scrutiny over how Epstein was able to leverage their bond into years of unchecked financial and social influence. While Wexner has claimed ignorance of Epstein's crimes and insists he severed ties long before the scandal exploded, the unanswered question remains: why did one of the most powerful retailers in America entrust a mysterious outsider with unfettered access to his fortune? That silence has only fueled speculation that the ties between Epstein and Wexner run far deeper than either man was ever willing to publicly admit.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comSource:https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/06/inside-jeffrey-epsteins-decades-long-relationship-with-his-biggest-client

In the 2022 Hulu documentary Victoria's Secret: Angels and Demons, director Matt Tyrnauer explores the deeply entwined relationship between billionaire Les Wexner and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein served as Wexner's financial manager and was granted sweeping power of attorney in 1991—giving him extensive control over Wexner's assets. The series portrays how Epstein leveraged that influence to ingratiate himself into the fashion world and presumed modeling circles, sometimes falsely representing himself as a Victoria's Secret recruiter. Wexner declined direct interviews; instead, he issued written denials, including claims that he was never aware of Epstein's abuse, even though there were multiple early warning signs ignored by him and the companyThe docuseries also makes a compelling case that Epstein's association significantly tarnished the Victoria's Secret brand. It draws direct lines from allegations—such as those from model Alicia Arden and artist Maria Farmer—that Epstein used the guise of modeling to exploit women, to the brand's eventual cultural decline amid #MeToo backlash and reputational damage. Although Wexner publicly framed the relationship as a misplaced trust that ended years before Epstein's arrest, the documentary underscores how Epstein's control and access may have facilitated his crimes—and how Wexner's delayed distancing, combined with a failure to act on internal warnings, contributed to institutional complicity.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://uk.sports.yahoo.com/news/mysterious-billionaire-behind-jeffrey-epstein-095140216.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In the 1990s, Jeffrey Epstein reportedly lobbied then-President Bill Clinton on behalf of his primary client—and VIP financier—Les Wexner, who owned The Limited and Victoria's Secret. Epstein aimed to influence U.S. trade laws, specifically targeting regulations that could have benefited Wexner's clothing business, potentially saving The Limited up to $1.2 billion. While no evidence suggests that these lobbying efforts led to actual legislative changes, they served as Epstein's early entry point into high‑level political influence and connections.Despite Epstein's access—including multiple White House visits and social engagement within Clinton's inner circle—there is no indication that the trade lobbying resulted in any tangible outcome.

Michael Wolff recounts visiting Epstein's Manhattan mansion, the Wexner connection, and the infamous Clinton painting. He explains Epstein's view of art as a joke, the fallout from the Palm Beach case, and why he saw both Epstein and Donald Trump as “bad guys” with striking similarities.

In February 2022, Politico reported that billionaire retail magnate Leslie Wexner—the former CEO of L Brands and longtime associate of Jeffrey Epstein—donated $250,000 to the Republican Governors Association (RGA). This marked Wexner's first major political donation since 2018, when he had also contributed a similar amount to the same group. The donation drew renewed scrutiny not just because of Wexner's past ties to Epstein, who once held power of attorney over Wexner's finances, but because Wexner had publicly distanced himself from the Republican Party following the rise of Donald Trump. Despite previously renouncing his GOP affiliation, Wexner's large donation in 2022 suggested a quiet but deliberate reentry into political influence.What made the donation even more notable was its timing and lack of public announcement. Wexner's name had faded from political finance circles after years of scandal and fallout surrounding Epstein, yet the $250,000 gift signaled a resumption of political activity. The money went to the RGA, a powerful fundraising organization that supports Republican gubernatorial candidates across the country, including then-Ohio Governor Mike DeWine. Critics immediately questioned why a figure once so publicly disillusioned with the Republican Party—and so closely tied to one of the most notorious sex traffickers in American history—was now bankrolling GOP campaigns again without explanation.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsourcehttps://www.politico.com/news/2022/02/07/longtime-epstein-associate-gave-250k-to-rga-00006097

Les Wexner, the billionaire founder of L Brands and longtime CEO of Victoria's Secret, was not just an associate of Jeffrey Epstein—he was Epstein's most powerful and influential patron. Wexner granted Epstein an extraordinary level of access to his financial empire, entrusting him with power of attorney and essentially giving him control over vast portions of his wealth and decision-making authority. Epstein used that access to insert himself into elite financial and social circles, all while operating what would become one of the most notorious sex trafficking networks in modern American history. Wexner even transferred ownership of a Manhattan mansion—later used by Epstein to abuse young women and girls—to Epstein under murky circumstances, which further fueled questions about their relationship.Critics have long argued that without Wexner's sponsorship, Epstein's rise would have been impossible. Despite claiming he severed ties with Epstein in the mid-2000s, Wexner has never fully explained why he gave so much power to a man with no legitimate financial credentials. He has painted himself as a victim of betrayal, alleging that Epstein misappropriated millions of dollars, but many see that explanation as insufficient and evasive. Survivors and investigators alike have questioned how Wexner could have been so intimately tied to Epstein without noticing or suspecting his predatory behavior—especially given the proximity of Epstein's crimes to properties and enterprises connected to Wexner's name.

Send us a textI dive into this nearly two-hour deep dive starting with Ghislaine Maxwell's legal chaos where she's been subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee, wants clemency, has petitioned the Supreme Court for an appeal, and her legal team has approached Trump asking for a pardon, plus she's been secretly moved to a low-security federal prison in Fort Worth, Texas where Elizabeth Holmes and Real Housewives Jen Shaw are serving their sentences, which definitely looks like some sort of deal is in the works, but here's where it gets really interesting - I expose this woman named Anya Wick who claims to be Jeffrey Epstein's niece AND Shia LaBeouf's twin sister AND Walt Disney's great-granddaughter, which is obviously complete bullshit, but people need to know about these frauds, then the bombshell comes when I unpack why attorney Bobbi Sternheim representing both Ghislaine Maxwell AND Nicholas Tartaglione (Epstein's former cellmate who's now convicted of quadruple murder) isn't actually that weird legally, but what IS weird is that she holds top secret SCI clearance and specializes in terrorism and national security cases - so why is she working on sex trafficking and murder cases, and even weirder, she got appointed to Tartaglione's case just ten days after Epstein died, then I play Trump's recent comments about why he threw Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago for stealing his spa workers, including what sounds like Virginia Roberts Giuffre, and you can hear him practically confirming everything we suspected, but the real meat comes when I break down the Bill Gates connection through Boris Nikolic, who was mysteriously named as backup executor in Epstein's will just two days before Epstein died, even though Nikolic says he hadn't spoken to Epstein in years, and I explain how this was clearly Epstein's "FU" to Gates, exposing their deeper ties than anyone knew, and how Nikolic was the middleman coordinating between Gates and Epstein for years, plus I dive into that Russian bridge player Mila Antonova that Epstein allegedly used to blackmail Gates over an affair, and how Gates met with Epstein way more than he's ever admitted, then comes the final hour with more of Maria Farmer's lost interview, where she details being kidnapped at Les Wexner's Ohio compound, how all of Epstein's surveillance footage went directly to Wexner's house, her escape with her little brothers, and the aftermath with Vicki Ward destroying the 2003 Vanity Fair story that could have saved all those girls in Florida, and Maria drops bombs about Morgan Fairchild being at Epstein's office "like a little blow-up doll,"  what she thinks Epstein and Ghislaine relationship was. This is the interview that's been hidden for years, and now you get to hear why certain people never wanted it to come out. For the Full epsodes go here for only $6.00 per month plus more show! https://www.patreon.com/c/DishingDramaWithDanaWilkeySupport the showDana is on Cameo!Follow Dana: @Wilkey_Dana$25,000 Song - Apple Music$25,000 Song - SpotifyTo support the show and listen to full episodes, become a member on PatreonTo learn more about sponsorships, email DDDWpodcast@gmail.comDana's YouTube Channel

Despite his deep and long-standing ties to Jeffrey Epstein, billionaire Les Wexner remains an almost untouchable figure in Columbus, Ohio—revered as a philanthropic titan and regional kingmaker. Wexner, the founder of L Brands and the man behind Victoria's Secret, has wielded enormous influence over the city's economic and cultural landscape for decades. From hospitals to art centers to Ohio State University, his name is etched into nearly every major institution, with donations totaling hundreds of millions. This civic dominance has insulated him from the level of scrutiny other Epstein-linked figures have received. In Columbus, Wexner is not just a businessman—he's a legacy, a power broker whose wealth and prestige have bought loyalty, silence, or both.But beneath the surface, that reverence is increasingly uncomfortable. Epstein once held power of attorney over Wexner's finances, lived in a Wexner-owned mansion, and was given an unusual level of control over Wexner's personal and professional affairs—facts that have raised serious questions about just how much Wexner knew and when. Yet in Columbus, public officials and institutional leaders rarely speak of it. The media coverage is polite, the criticism muted, and the donor gratitude eternal. It's as if the city made a conscious choice to separate Wexner the benefactor from Wexner the enabler, ignoring the fact that his empowerment of Epstein may have been a central piece of the larger abuse machinery. In any other city, he might be scrutinized.

Despite his deep and long-standing ties to Jeffrey Epstein, billionaire Les Wexner remains an almost untouchable figure in Columbus, Ohio—revered as a philanthropic titan and regional kingmaker. Wexner, the founder of L Brands and the man behind Victoria's Secret, has wielded enormous influence over the city's economic and cultural landscape for decades. From hospitals to art centers to Ohio State University, his name is etched into nearly every major institution, with donations totaling hundreds of millions. This civic dominance has insulated him from the level of scrutiny other Epstein-linked figures have received. In Columbus, Wexner is not just a businessman—he's a legacy, a power broker whose wealth and prestige have bought loyalty, silence, or both.But beneath the surface, that reverence is increasingly uncomfortable. Epstein once held power of attorney over Wexner's finances, lived in a Wexner-owned mansion, and was given an unusual level of control over Wexner's personal and professional affairs—facts that have raised serious questions about just how much Wexner knew and when. Yet in Columbus, public officials and institutional leaders rarely speak of it. The media coverage is polite, the criticism muted, and the donor gratitude eternal.

Send us a textYou guys, I cannot even begin to tell you how absolutely explosive this nearly two-hour unedited Maria Farmer interview is. Cassandra (Enty whistle blower) recorded and edited this show for Enty in 2023 but owns the show. Maria Farmer, the very first person to ever report Jeffrey Epstein to the FBI back in 1996, spills everything in this raw, NOW unfiltered 2023 interview that was recorded before she got media trained, and she names names like you wouldn't believe. I have gone through and as she drops bombs, validated and given you more information and details on what she is mentioning so you can take a position on it and it is shocking. She drops absolute bombs about being held captive for an entire summer at Les Wexner's massive Ohio estate with sharpshooters, attack dogs, and armed guards while Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell sexually assaulted her later, and she reveals how Epstein told her he worked for Wexner and she believes that the whole operation was tied to the CIA or Mossad or both. But wait, it gets even crazier - she tells the story of witnessing Donald Trump at Epstein's offices making the most disgusting comment about thinking she was sixteen, and she explains how Epstein was living in a former Iranian Embassy that the U.S. government had confiscated and then mysteriously let him rent. Maria absolutely destroys the narrative about who the real victims are versus who the recruiters were, exposing how women like Jennifer Kalin - who got $7.4 million from Deutsche Bank - was actually a major recruiter who trafficked other women for over a decade while real victims like Maria got pennies. She reveals that lawyer Brad Edwards is protecting all the wrong people. Enty was paid by Lady Victoria Hervey? And that she still has an unredacted copy of Epstein's black book that the FBI left at her house during an interview. The tea about Russian model Svetlana Pozhidaeva from Jean-Luc Brunel's MC2 modeling agency, the sham same-sex marriages Epstein arranged to get foreign women citizenship, and how she feels the butler Juan Alessi and pilot Larry Visoski got rich and immunity while participating in child trafficking. Maria connects dots between Epstein, Les Wexner, the Wexner Foundation's ties to Israeli intelligence, Southern Air Transport's CIA connections, and explains why she believes Epstein died to protect someone - this interview will completely change how you see this entire case and I guarantee you'll be glued to all 2 hours.RetryClaude can make mistakes. Please double-check responses.To hear the full epsode! aSupport the showDana is on Cameo!Follow Dana: @Wilkey_Dana$25,000 Song - Apple Music$25,000 Song - SpotifyTo support the show and listen to full episodes, become a member on PatreonTo learn more about sponsorships, email DDDWpodcast@gmail.comDana's YouTube Channel

The media says there's no client list. No trafficking. No intelligence ties. But the evidence says otherwise. In this explosive deep-dive, we expose the suspicious wealth, powerful allies, and unanswered questions surrounding Jeffrey Epstein. From hidden cameras and mysterious mansions to ties with Mossad, CIA fixers, and billionaires like Wexner, Gates, and Black, this is the video they don't want you to see.

In the 1990s, Jeffrey Epstein reportedly lobbied President Bill Clinton on behalf of billionaire retail magnate Les Wexner, seeking changes to U.S. trade laws that would benefit Wexner's business interests. Acting as Wexner's financial advisor and gatekeeper, Epstein attempted to use his growing political access to influence trade regulations involving currency and import markets. While it's unclear whether these lobbying efforts ever translated into real policy shifts, they marked Epstein's first steps into high-level political circles. What began as a financial mission quickly evolved into a personal connection, as Epstein built a relationship with Clinton that extended well beyond policy discussions.Epstein visited the White House multiple times during Clinton's presidency and eventually hosted the former president aboard his private jet on several international trips. The two traveled together on numerous occasions, reinforcing the perception that Epstein had secured a place of trust and familiarity within Clinton's orbit. Though Epstein's lobbying for Wexner never made headlines at the time, it helped solidify his reputation as a man with influence in both financial and political spheres. The episode is now viewed as an early example of how Epstein used his role as a middleman for the powerful to expand his reach behind the scenes.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11482131/Jeffrey-Epstein-tried-lobby-Bill-Clinton-change-trade-laws-behalf-Les-Wexner.html
