In Dec 2012, #Epstein invited #HowardLutnick, now #Trump’s #commerce secretary, to his island for lunch, records show. Lutnick’s wife accepted the invitation & said they would arrive on a yacht with their children. On another occasion in 2011, the 2 men had drinks, acc/to a schedule shared w/Epstein.
#Lutnick claimed he cut ties with Epstein long ago. A Commerce Dept spox said Lutnick had “limited interactions with Mr. Epstein in the presence of his wife & has never been accused of wrongdoing.”
