Nixon's White House & Jeffrey Epstein
/In my book 'Jeffrey Epstein, Revealed' , co-authored with the legendary Bob Fitrakis, I began to ferret out people who'd been in Richard Nixon's White House and had a connection to Jeffrey Epstein.
The following is an excerpt:
It was in London where Jeffrey Epstein would meet Towers Financial CEO Steven Hoffenberg. According to Hoffenberg, the ill-fated introduction was made by arms dealer and British spy Douglas Leese. Epstein, in interviews, told people he'd met Hoffenberg through John Mitchell. Yes, that John Mitchell - the former U.S. Attorney General for President Richard Nixon.
Mitchell and Leese knew each other and so it's possible both these men played a role. I tend to believe Jeffrey Epstein's account more than I do Hoffenberg's recollections. There are other players connected to Nixon that became part of Epstein's world and which I find fascinating. It means Epstein had friends with political clout long before he met Bill Clinton.
Towers Financial
Edward Nixon, the President's younger brother, was invited to sit on the Board of Directors of Towers Financial. Michell, Nixon and Abe Hirschfeld consulted Jeffrey Epstein on Towers' failed takeover attempt of Pan Am. Another Nixon, Donald (one of President Nixon's nephews) worked alongside the Epstein/Hoffenberg team. And, Edward, the President's brother had an ungodly alliance with "fugitive financier" Robert Vesco. Sometimes, the deeper one digs into Epstein's world, the stranger it becomes. It's almost like jumping back and forth between 'The Godfather' movie series, 'Wall Street' (with Gordon Gekko chanting "Greed is good"), and the film 'Taken'.
It always seemed odd to me that mainstream media remained radio-silent on the Nixon connections to Jeffrey Epstein. Especially because they happened early in Epstein's career. By now, I would have thought mainstream media would have left no stone uncovered. Not so. Many stones remain covered.
John Mitchell and Richard Nixon became close friends in 1962 when Nixon moved to New York. Many people have said they were the best of friends. So close were they that when Nixon was elected President he asked him to become his Attorney General. Mitchell ran with a curious bunch and I often wonder if he regretted his decision to join his buddy Nixon at the White House.
After the Watergate scandal, Mitchell was found guilty of conspiracy, obstruction of justice, and perjury. He was sentenced to two and half to eight years in prison for his role in the Watergate break-in and cover-up. He served 19 months and was disbarred from the practice of law in New York.
It's important to note John Mitchell was also good friends with Craig Spence. If that name doesn’t sound familiar – please remember it. In 1989 Spence made national headlines for the boy "prostitution" ring where he gave midnight tours of George H.W. Bush’s White House.
Spence was later outed as a CIA agent - although articles mentioning his ties to the CIA have been long scrubbed from the internet. When pressed about how he was able to access the White House, Spence claimed it was another CIA operative, Donald Gregg, who gave him the keys. Gregg denied the allegation. However, if we’ve learned anything about spies, we’ve learned they lie.
