## Resource

Tara Palmeri joins V on Parasocial to break down her exclusive ten-month investigation into John Kerry's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein — a story mainstream media has entirely missed. Tara walks through the full paper trail: a photo of Kerry in Epstein's home, sworn FBI testimony from Epstein's chef placing Kerry on his plane, Virginia Giuffre's account of encountering Kerry during the height of the sex trafficking operation, Epstein's campaign donations, the "Kerry Scheme" emails fantasizing about Kerry jumping into the 2016 race, and Epstein acting as an unofficial broker while Kerry was secretary of state — trying to connect him with disgraced Norwegian diplomat Rod Larsen, an Emirati shipping tycoon who loved a torture video, and Steve Bannon. They also dig into Epstein's cultivation of William Burns (Kerry's deputy who became Biden's CIA director), the Leon Black–Jay Clayton conflict of interest corrupting the Epstein file investigation, Tara's confrontation with acting AG Todd Blanche at the French embassy, Howard Lutnick's shifting Epstein timeline under oath, the Epstein Files reading room pop-up in New York, Ghislaine Maxwell's pardon push, and why politicizing survivors' pain is unacceptable.
