Goldman Lawyer Quits, Calls Epstein ‘Uncle Jeffrey’ Like Family’s Worst Secret
KEY POINTS
- •The Justice Department released over 3 million Epstein-related pages on January 30, 2026, uncovering new associations.
- •Kathryn Ruemmler resigned as Goldman Sachs’ chief legal officer after emails showed close, enduring ties with Epstein including expensive gifts.
- •Several figures, including Brad Karp and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, faced fallout over disclosed communications and island visits.
In the judicial equivalent of a slow-motion train wreck, the Justice Department unleashed 3 million pages of Epstein-related documents on January 30, 2026, dragging down stars like Goldman Sachs’ top lawyer Kathryn Ruemmler — who resigned after emails revealed she called Epstein 'Uncle Jeffrey' and gushed over a $9,350 Hermes gift bag. Brad Karp, once chairman of Paul Weiss, also bowed out following proof he worked with Epstein to surveil a woman tied to billionaire Leon Black. Longevity guru and CBS contributor Peter Attia dropped client roles after sending Epstein 'low carb' genitalia remarks. Meanwhile, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s 2012 Epstein island family lunch sparked bipartisan “please resign” calls despite claims it only lasted an hour. The wild ride continues, showing how deep and painfully ridiculous these associations go.
