The <a title=\"Epstein Scheduled Meetings With Now-CIA Director: Report\" href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/epstein-scheduled-meetings-with-now-cia-director-report\/\">documents divulged planned meet-ups<\/a> with a number of high-profile people, some of whom acknowledged meeting with Epstein but disputed or claimed a lack of memory concerning details that appeared in the documents, such as the number of meetings.<\/p>\n<h3>Meetings with Burns<\/h3>\n<p>Burns, who became President Joe Biden&#8217;s CIA director in March 2021, had three meetings scheduled with Epstein in 2014 when Burns was deputy secretary of state, the documents show. The report mentioned a planned lunch in August at a law firm in Washington and two evening appointments in September at Epstein\u2019s townhouse in Manhattan.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, Burns was planning on leaving the government, a CIA spokesperson told the publication. One month later, in October of that year, Burns left the State Department to become president of the Carnegie Foundation for International Peace think tank.<\/p>\n<p>The CIA spokesperson said Burns recalls only being introduced to Epstein by a mutual friend and meeting briefly with Epstein one time in New York. Although Epstein planned for his driver to take Burns to the airport, the CIA spokesperson said Burns does not recall receiving a ride.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe director did not know anything about [Epstein], other than that he was introduced as an expert in the financial services sector and offered general advice on transition to the private sector,\u201d the CIA spokesperson said. \u201cThey had no relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Other Connections<\/h3>\n<p>The Wall Street Journal report mentions several other people who appear in a trove of schedules and emails, adding to a long list of Epstein\u2019s known connections, including former presidents. Among the new revelations appeared Kathryn Ruemmler, whom the documents show had dozens of meetings with Epstein in the years after she served as a White House counsel to President Barack Obama and before becoming a top lawyer at Goldman Sachs.<\/p>\n<p>A Goldman Sachs spokesperson told the publication that Ruemmler had a professional relationship with Epstein in connection to her role at the law firm Latham &#038; Watkins LLP and did not travel with Epstein as was indicated in the records.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the normal course, Epstein also invited her to meetings and social gatherings, introduced her to other business contacts and made referrals,\u201d the Goldman Sachs spokesperson added. \u201cIt was the same kinds of contacts and engagements she had with other contacts and clients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report noted that a spokesperson for Latham &#038; Watkins denied Epstein had been a client of the firm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI regret ever knowing Jeffrey Epstein,\u201d Ruemmler said.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>were unaware of Epstein&#8217;s criminal history.
