"John Peter Have you read Reid Weingarten's bail letter for Epstein? It is very impressive, until page 10, when he actually argues that refusing to allow a rich defendant to hire private guards and live in his mansion implicates equal protection concerns because the decision not to allow defendants to buy their own cages discriminates against them "based largely on socioeconomic status." Also, in how many other bail applications do defendants offer to "deregister or otherwise ground his private jet"? EFTA00098837

Epstein hosted Qatari foreign minister and attorney‑friend Reid Weingarten, linking U.S. political‑legal circles to Qatar amid World Cup bribery concerns
Epstein hosted Qatari foreign minister and attorney‑friend Reid Weingarten, linking U.S. political‑legal circles to Qatar amid World Cup bribery concerns The passage suggests a convergence of high‑profile actors – Jeffrey Epstein, Qatar’s foreign minister Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim, and Reid Weingarten (a lawyer tied to Eric Holder and major corporate defendants) – discussing financing of ‘bad guys’ and potential influence over the World Cup bid. While the details are anecdotal and lack hard evidence (no dates, transactions, or documented meetings), the combination of a foreign minister, a U.S. attorney‑general confidant, and a convicted financier creates a strong investigative lead on possible foreign influence, bribery, or illicit financial flows. The novelty is moderate (newly surfaced anecdote) and the controversy high, but the lack of concrete documentation keeps the score just below the blockbuster threshold. Key insights: Epstein met with Qatar’s foreign minister Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim in a private dinner setting.; Reid Weingarten, a lawyer for high‑profile corporate defendants and close to former AG Eric Holder, attended the breakfast the next morning.; Conversation allegedly touched on Qatar’s financing of extremist groups and the potential impact on the 2022 World Cup bid.
