New: Leon Black has said he paid Jeffrey Epstein $170M for tax and estate planning. But a NYT investigation found that Epstein provided a range of other services as well, including helping Black obscure millions of dollars in payments to women. 🎁🔗 nytimes.com/2026/03/23/bus…

This is a big win for the press, the public and the United States military, which fights better when observed by a robust press corps.

@lynnhowlett @FrankBroughton7 @RepMTG Thanks again for reading my work, Lynn. I send out free links to all my major stories, so please stay tuned!

@FrankBroughton7 @RepMTG @DraperRobert I'm surprised he even responded to me - let alone offer a free link for people. Normally I'd get blocked by a media person (or actors) just bc of my username. So I appreciate him.

For anyone interested in the compelling @RepMTG article I spoke of earlier, the author (@DraperRobert) has provided a free link. 👇
