Have you noticed in every one of Trump’s fantasy phone calls people call him “Sir”. But i call him “Pussy” every time I leave a message. So he needs to get real!

Epstein probably had to tell his neighbor lutnick, that he was a registered sex offender after 2008. Also nice that Luntuick and his wive allegedly decided, that he (not her or both) would never be in the same room as Epstein again.

But she could be on the island with them with children, and you sent the sexes of the children and the children’s ages ahead of the time and your friends brought their kids too. Very nice hung out. We seen pictures.

Nutlick may have taken his kids off the island, but it sounds like he left open the possibility he left the nannies behind.

The doom and gloom is due to every Trump hire having three qualifications : total incompetence, no morals and most important complete obsequious devotion to Trump.

He specifically mentioned the children leaving because the nannies did not
@peterpan8727
June 21, 2026 at 3:17 pm
What he said is he went to the island with the kids and nannies (plural) and left with the kids. What was Epstein paying to transport nannies to the island back then?

If I tell you how to pay-off the American Dept completely within 1 year, would you award me for it? Re-issue the $100 and $50 US Dollar bills, with exchange locations across the country for a seamless transfer. You will wipe-out many CRIMINAL ENTERPRISES and Corporate Criminals, and you also take-back your control of your paper money. Please send in small bills of $20 and under. Your Canadian Friend.

Lutnick also paid Obama 400K for a speech. Please do something about Obama's ties to Epstein — see Larry Summers and accepting the Nobel Peace Prize before doing anything and continuing war. I hate Trump and the connections are there. 400K for a speech. Wonder what he talked about.
@TimorKen

Apparently, Lutnick left the paedo island with his kids, but did he leave with the two nannies which accompanied his family? When Epstein invited him to the island, he specified something like, "You say you're traveling with two cuties you call 'nanies?' Bring them too. I'll have a private talk with them, to offer them an exclusive business proposal (wink wink)." "Howard, how much are you paying the nannies? I'll double it, keep the girls for me, ….and help you find new nannies in NYC. Can you also bring those Burmese and Swiss au pair girls, when you visit my island?"

Cheers 🍻 from 🟥🍁🟥Have a fun summer !
edit: Wasn't Lutnick on Esptein Island? They really should release the TRUMP-Epstein Files fully unredacted this time, it would distract from the Green Swamp Trump made in DC and the Iran Free $$$ Deal and maybe even Epstein Island v2 they wanted to build in Albania.

Amazed Lutnik didn’t remember to say his pastor went to the island with him. As well as Lutnik’s sainted mother.
