They're Back Lutnick and Epstein Haunt Congress

• Nancy Mace calls for Howard Lutnick to testify before the House Oversight Committee regarding his association with Jeffrey Epstein.
• Controversy surrounds a restored photo in the DOJ database showing Epstein and a man believed to be Howard Lutnick.
• Lutnick admitted to having lunch with Epstein on his private island in 2012, contradicting earlier claims of cutting ties in 2005.
• The House Oversight Committee is questioning Bill and Hillary Clinton about their connections to Epstein amidst growing public scrutiny.

The Past Is Never Really Gone

Alright, people, listen up. Sarah Connor here, reporting from the front lines of… well, let's just call it another potential apocalypse. Seems like the House Oversight Committee is digging into some old dirt – the kind that refuses to stay buried, like a certain Austrian cyborg I know. This time, it involves Representative Nancy Mace going after Howard Lutnick, demanding he spill the beans on his connection to the late, unlamented Jeffrey Epstein. You know, Epstein, the guy who made the phrase "trust fund creep" sound like a compliment. As I always say, "No fate but what we make," and right now, Congress is trying to make some sense of this mess.

Picture This Lutnick and the Ghosts of Islands Past

So, here's the kicker: A photo surfaced – then disappeared, then reappeared – on the Department of Justice's database. It allegedly shows Epstein standing next to a guy who *appears* to be Howard Lutnick. The photo is like one of those T-800s, constantly morphing, always coming back. And get this, other documents indicate Lutnick and his buddy Michael Lehrman vacationed with Epstein back in 2012, including a lunch date on Epstein's infamous island. Lutnick's testimony now is a serious topic and I have written another article about a completely different topic, but it also deals with current events. Read about it here: Panera's Playing the Value Game My Thoughts. It seems nothing is ever truly over, right?

I'll Be Back The Subpoena Cometh

Mace isn't messing around. She wants Lutnick to testify, and Representative Ro Khanna seems to think there are enough votes to subpoena him. It's like that moment when you realize the Terminator is still functioning after you thought you'd blown him to bits. Just when you think you're safe, bam, here comes the subpoena. Meanwhile, the Committee is also grilling Bill and Hillary Clinton about their connections to Epstein. It's a regular reunion of power players and shady characters. Just the kind of thing to make you lose faith in humanity… again.

Lutnick's Tale of Two Timelines

Here's where it gets interesting. Lutnick testified in February that he cut off contact with Epstein in 2005. But DOJ files tell a different story. Apparently, they were still in contact years later. In 2015, Lutnick seemed to invite Epstein to an "intimate" fundraiser for Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, and in 2017, Epstein donated $50,000 to a charity in Lutnick's honor. Folks, this is a classic case of “come with me if you want to live”… through this scandal. Because let's be honest, scandals never really die; they just get rebooted.

Money, Power, and Advertising Tech

As if that wasn't enough, documents also reveal that Epstein and Lutnick both signed deals on behalf of limited liability companies to acquire stakes in an advertising technology company called Adfin back in 2012. It's like finding out Skynet had a side hustle in targeted advertising. The whole thing is a tangled web of money, power, and questionable associations. What else is hidden in these files?

There Is No Fate But What We Make...Or Do We?

Epstein's dead, but his legacy of sleaze continues to haunt the halls of power. The question now is, what will Congress do with this information? Will they finally hold these guys accountable, or will it be another case of powerful people getting away with terrible things? I've seen enough to know that the future is never certain, but one thing's for sure: "The future is not set. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves." So, let's hope Congress makes the right choices this time. The world, as always, is watching.
