It’s not surprising that the Vatican shows up in the Epstein files since Epstein kept tabs on every powerful entity on the planet. But one email claims Epstein actually lived in the Vatican with Pope John Paul II at some point.
An email from Brandon Thompson, who appeared to be a contractor working on refinishing and lime-washing columns in one of Epstein’s homes, outlined the intricacies of the project to Richard Kahn at HBRK Associates, Epstein’s accountant.
“He wants me to finish each column different, as when he was living with Pope John Paul the Second in Vatican, he looked at variety of different columns captured in wars,” wrote Thompson. “He told me that every Pope demanded to have a column from every concurred [SIC] country, so there is a collection of different columns in Vatican.”
Of course there is no proof that Epstein lived with the Pope, although he and Ghislaine Maxwell visited with him in 2003 during a public audience. Just how intimate Epstein was with the Vatican is unknown, but in 2011 he claimed to have nearly possessed the Codex Vaticanus, one of the oldest and most important Church relics containing a majority of the Greek Old Testament and the majority of the New Testament. The Codex was famously seized by Napoleon in 1799 as a war trophy but was returned to the Vatican Library in 1815.
In an email to Boris Nikolic, who was a science advisor to the Bill Gates Foundation at the time and a close Epstein confidante, Epstein wrote, “I forgot to mention to Bill, that one of the first almost interactions with him was when I was the underbidder for the codex…The auctioneers told me that i shold drop out because if i owned them, no one would ever see them and they really should be in semi public hands.. I later had to settle for a present from the vatican of a special edition.”
One of the most revealing emails about Epstein’s alleged ties to the Vatican is a 2013 correspondence with Larry Summers, former U.S. Treasury Secretary under President Bill Clinton, former Harvard President and former chief economist at the World Bank. Epstein writes, “The most important change in the Vatican may not be Pope Benedict XVI sudden retirement but the change in leadership at ‘the Institute for Works of Religion,’ the Vatican’s bank. Because of the Vatican’s status as a sovereign country, it is exempt from transparency rules of not only Italy— but of the European Union. This status allows its elite clients to evade any scrutiny in their money transfers.”
“Last May,” continued Epstein. “Vatican Bank President Ettore Gotti Tedeschi was fired after Italian authorities opened an investigation into a far flung bribery scheme in which he was allegedly involved. Then 47 dossiers, including compromising about “internal enemies” of his in the Vatican were found in a search of his home. They had instructions how they were used in case something happened to him. Tcdeschi’s intercepted calls futhcr revealed that his concern was that he would be assassinated because he knoew the Vatican’s secrets. By late 2012, he was cooperating with the ongoing Italian investigation, It was at this point that the all-powerful College of Cardinals, in one of the last acts in the Benedict papacy, appointed German lawyer Ernst von Freyberg as President of the bank. The came the extraordinary resignation of Pope Benedict.”
Freyberg had a short tenure as Vatican Bank president. He was named in June 2012 as an interim leader, then appointed president in February of 2013. Von Freyberg quickly began to open up the bank and adopted a zero-tolerance approach to suspicious activities, advocating transparency. He was dismissed in July along with the Vatican Bank’s entire senior management team as part of extensive reforms to the Catholic Church’s central government.
Jean-Baptiste Douville de Franssu has been chairman of Vatican Bank’s advisory board since July of 2014.

Bookmark moved to my permanent reference folder rather than the casual maybe later folder, and a look at birchbrookvendorfoundry earned the same upgrade, the distinction between casual interest and lasting reference is something I track carefully and very few sites cross that threshold but this one did so without much effort apparently.
Now understanding why someone recommended this site to me a while back, and a stop at dawnbrookmarketfoundry explained the recommendation, sometimes recommendations make sense only after experience and this site has finally clicked into place as the kind of resource I now understand was being recommended for sound editorial reasons by my friend.
A clean read with no irritations, and a look at createforwarddirection continued that frictionless quality, the absence of small irritations is something I notice only when present elsewhere and this site is one of the rare places where everything just works and lets me focus on the substance rather than fighting the format.
Thanks for taking the time to write this, it is clear that some thought went into how each point would land, and after I went through marbleharbortradehall I had a better grip on the topic, real value without the usual marketing noise people have to put up with online when searching for answers.
Thanks for putting in the work to make this approachable, plenty of sites cover the same ground but most do it badly, and a quick visit to ivoryharborvendorroom confirmed this one stands apart, simple language and useful examples without anyone trying to sell me anything along the way which I really appreciated.
Now recognising that this site has earned a place in the small group of resources I treat as authoritative, and a stop at nextgenbuyhub confirmed that placement, the difference between resources I trust and resources I just consume is real and this site has clearly moved into the trusted category through consistent quality over time.
Reading this triggered a small but real correction in something I had assumed, and a stop at cottonmeadowcraftcollective extended that corrective effect, content that updates my beliefs through evidence rather than rhetoric is content with intellectual integrity and this site has earned that label consistently across the pieces I have read so far today.
Felt like I was reading something written by someone who actually thinks about the topic rather than reciting it, and a look at globalgoodscenter reinforced that impression, the difference between recited content and considered content is huge and this site clearly belongs to the latter category which I appreciate as a careful reader looking for substance.
Now appreciating that the post did not require me to agree with the writer to find it valuable, and a look at embercovecommerceatelier maintained the same useful regardless of agreement quality, content that informs even when it does not convince is content with broader utility and this site reads as useful even when I disagree.
A piece that read as if the writer was thinking carefully rather than just typing fluently, and a look at nightorchardtradeparlor continued that considered quality, the difference between fluent typing and careful thinking shows up in writing and this site reads as the product of thought rather than just the product of language fluency apparently.
Вот такая беда приключилась — близкий в тяжелом состоянии, а везти в клинику нет сил. Я через это прошел пару лет назад . Руки опускаются, а время идет. Начинаешь обзванивать знакомых, а в ответ одни отговорки. Пока случайно не наткнулся на один проверенный вариант. Требуется срочная помощь — а тащить человека сам нет никакой возможности , то нужно вызывать врача на дом. Я про срочную наркологическую помощь на дому . В Москве , если честно, тоже полно левых контор без лицензии. Вся проверенная информация вот тут : нарколог капельницу на дому нарколог капельницу на дому Честно скажу , после того как прочитал , понял, как действовать правильно. И про снятие запоя на дому, и про последующее кодирование. Плюс анонимность — это важно . Советую не тянуть резину .
Thanks for treating the topic with the seriousness it deserves without becoming pompous about it, and a stop at floraharborvendorhall continued that balanced treatment, the gap between earnest and self serious is huge and writers who can stay on the right side of it earn my respect when I find them online today.
A piece that prompted a small mental rearrangement of how I order related ideas, and a look at cloudharbortradehall extended that rearranging effect, content that affects the structure of my thinking rather than just adding to it is content with the deepest kind of impact and this site is reaching that depth for me today.
Honestly enjoyed every minute spent here, that is not something I say lightly, and a look at flarequills confirmed I will be back, the bar for spending time online is high for me these days but this site clears it without effort which is high praise indeed from this reader who is usually rather demanding.
A piece that handled multiple complications without becoming confused, and a look at garnetbrookvendorfoundry continued that organisational clarity, holding multiple threads in a single piece without losing any of them is a sign of skilled writing and this site has clearly developed the editorial discipline to manage complexity without sacrificing readability throughout.
Started taking notes about halfway through because the points were stacking up, and a look at cottonmeadowmarkethall added enough material that my notes file grew further, content that demands note taking from a passive reader is content with substance and the writers here are clearly producing that kind of work consistently across topics.
Now feeling the small relief of finding writing that does not condescend, and a stop at goodslinkstore extended that respect for readers, content that treats its audience as capable adults rather than as people to be managed produces a different reading experience and this site has clearly chosen the respectful approach across all pieces.
Now feeling slightly more committed to my own careful reading practices having read this, and a stop at clovercrestmarketparlor reinforced that commitment, content that models the kind of attention it deserves is content that calibrates the reader and this site has clearly raised my own bar for what to bring to good writing today.
Well crafted post, the structure flows naturally from one point to the next without forcing transitions, and a stop at emberstonevendorlounge kept the same flow going, you can tell when a writer has thought about how their content reads rather than just what it contains and this is one of those examples.
Now appreciating that I did not feel exhausted after reading, and a stop at etherfairs extended that energising quality, content that leaves me with more attention than it consumed is rare and the gap between draining and energising content is real over the course of a typical day spent reading widely online.
Took the time to read the comments on this post too and they were also worth reading, and a stop at directionalclaritywins suggested the community quality matches the content quality, when the conversation around a piece is as good as the piece itself you know you have found a real corner of the internet.
Вот такая история — родственник в запое , а что делать — непонятно . Я через это прошел лично . Пьют успокоительное, но хрен там. Нужна профессиональная помощь . Обзвонил десяток контор — сплошной развод . А потом наткнулся на один действительно рабочий вариант. Если ищешь где получить анонимное лечение алкоголиков — не ведись на дешевые акции . У нас в Воронеже, если честно, тоже полно шарлатанов . Вся проверенная информация ниже по ссылке: лечение алкоголизма и наркомании центр https://narkologicheskaya-pomoshh-voronezh-11.ru Откровенно говоря, после того как ознакомился, понял свои ошибки. Там и про вывод из запоя , и про условия в клинике. И цены адекватные. Рекомендую не откладывать.
A piece that handled a controversial angle without becoming heated, and a look at tealcovecraftcollective continued that calm engagement, content that can address contested topics without inflaming them is doing rare diplomatic work and this site has clearly developed the editorial maturity to handle sensitive material with the appropriate temperature of writing throughout.
Okay folks gather round — Miami rental horror story time. Then you roll up to the local address to pick up the car. Different car sitting there — bald tires, dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree, and that “killer price”? Yeah doesn’t include the non-negotiable $45 daily insurance or the $500 deposit they forget to mention. Nine years in South Florida and these clowns still nearly fool me. When you’re hunting for a legit and reliable premium ride to cruise around, stay the hell away from the airport rental center. Miami without proper wheels is basically a nightmare, whether you are doing Coconut Grove dinner, Sunny Isles sunrise, or a spontaneous drive down to Homestead.
I’ve tested maybe 50 rental outfits across Dade, Broward, and Collier, but I eventually found a service where what you reserve is exactly what you get, period, end of story. If you are looking for the only trustworthy source for premium rides across South Florida, check the current details here: luxury cars to rent near me https://luxury-car-rental-miami-9.com. Yeah, parking in Wynwood will cost you a nice dinner — but that’s the price of being in Miami. Just drive safe out there and definitely skip that “emergency roadside” upsell — complete waste of money. hope this helps some of you save a few bucks.
Found this useful, the points line up well with what I have been thinking about lately, and a stop at ferncovecommerceatelier added some angles I had not considered yet, definitely walking away with more than I came for which is the best outcome from time spent reading online for any kind of topic.
Came in confused about the topic and left with a much firmer grasp on it, and after skyharborcraftcollective I felt I could explain this to someone else without hesitation, that is the gold standard for any educational content and most sites simply fail to reach it ever which is unfortunate but true.
Bookmark earned and the bookmark feels like a permanent addition rather than a maybe, and a look at crystalcovecommerceatelier confirmed that permanent status, the difference between durable bookmarks and ephemeral ones is something I have learned to feel quickly and this site triggered the durable feeling almost immediately during my first read here.
Worth flagging this site to a few specific friends who would appreciate the editorial sensibility, and a look at elmbrooktradingfoundry added more pages I will mention to them, recommending sites to specific people requires understanding both the site and the person and this site is making those personalised recommendations easy and natural for me.
Appreciate the work that went into laying this out so clearly, every section earns its place without filler, and a look at creekharborcraftcollective confirmed the same care, definitely the kind of place that deserves a return visit when the topic comes up again later in the future or for any related question.
Nice to see a post that does not try to overcomplicate the basics for the sake of looking smart, and once I looked at brightbrooktradingfoundry the same direct tone was there too, which honestly makes a difference when you are short on time and want answers without long pointless intros.
Taking the time to read carefully here has been worthwhile for the past hour, and a look at levqino extended the worthwhile reading, the calculation of return on reading time spent is something I do informally and this site has been producing positive returns across multiple sessions during the last week of regular visits and reads.
Reading this prompted me to send the link to two different people for two different reasons, and a stop at quartzmeadowmarketgallery provided ammunition for a third share, content that suits multiple audiences without being generic enough to be useless to any of them is genuinely valuable and this site has that multi audience quality clearly.
Honestly the simplicity is what makes this work, the topic is not buried under filler words or overly complex examples, and a quick look at coastharborvendorhall showed the same sensible style, I left with what I came for and no headache from over reading which is a real win these days.
Came in for one specific question and got answers to three I had not even thought to ask, and a look at meadowharborvendorhall extended that bonus value pattern, the kind of resource that anticipates reader needs rather than just answering the literal question asked is the gold standard and this site reaches it.
Excellent post, balanced and well organised without showing off, and a stop at clovercrestartisanexchange continued in that same vein, this site has clearly figured out the formula for content that works for readers rather than for search engine ranking signals which is harder than it sounds today and worth real recognition from anyone.
Will be back, that is the simplest way to say it, and a quick visit to stylishbuycorner reinforced the decision, this site has earned a spot in my regular rotation alongside a few other reliable places I check when I want something genuinely informative without all the usual modern web noise getting in the way.
Took a quick scan first and then went back to read properly because the post deserved it, and a stop at garnetharbortradinghouse kept me reading carefully too, the kind of writing that earns a slower second pass rather than getting skimmed and forgotten is something I value highly when I happen to find it.
A quiet kind of confidence runs through the writing, and a look at creekharbortradehall carried that same understated assurance, confidence without bragging is the most attractive register for online writing and the writers here have clearly developed it through practice rather than affecting it through stylistic tricks that would feel hollow eventually.
Decided not to comment because the post said what needed saying, and a stop at brightharborvendorhall continued that complete feel, content that does not invite obvious additions or corrections from readers is content that has been carefully considered and this site appears to consistently produce pieces that satisfy rather than provoke unnecessary follow ups.
Probably worth setting aside a longer block to read more carefully than I can right now, and a stop at onlinedealspoint confirmed the longer block plan, the impulse to schedule dedicated time for a sites archive is itself a measure of trust and this site has earned that scheduling impulse from me clearly today actually.
A piece that handled multiple complications without becoming confused, and a look at globebeat continued that organisational clarity, holding multiple threads in a single piece without losing any of them is a sign of skilled writing and this site has clearly developed the editorial discipline to manage complexity without sacrificing readability throughout.
Skipped the comments to avoid spoilers and came back later to find them genuinely worth reading, and a stop at lacehelm extended that surprised respect, when the discussion below a post matches the quality of the post itself you have found something special and this site appears to attract that kind of audience.
This stands out compared to similar posts I have read recently, less noise and more substance, and a look at ivoryridgemarketparlor kept that gap going, you can really feel the difference between content made by someone who cares versus content made to fill a publishing schedule for an algorithm trying to keep growing somehow.
Alright listen up because I’m about to save you a massive headache. You find this amazing listing online — gorgeous spec, fair daily rate, looks perfect. Plus they freeze a surprise $4500 on your card and say “don’t worry, it’ll drop off in a week or two” right before giving you the keys. Fool me twelve times? That’s just the 305 way, lesson learned. If you are trying to find a legitimate luxury fleet without getting ripped off, run far from the airport counters. Anyone who’s waited for an Uber in August heat knows the struggle exactly about this city, especially since the AC must be ice cold and unlimited miles non-negotiable.
Most of these local agencies are just shiny turds with fake five-star reviews bought in bulk online hiding overpriced junk, until I finally found one company that doesn’t play stupid games. If you are looking for the only straight shooter for premium rides across South Florida, check the current details here: mia luxury car rental mia luxury car rental. Yeah, parking in Brickell will cost you a nice dinner — but that’s the price of paradise. Just drive safe out there and absolutely skip that “windshield protection” upsell — complete waste of money. hope this helps some of you save a few bucks.
Now appreciating that I did not feel exhausted after reading, and a stop at forestmeadowvendorroom extended that energising quality, content that leaves me with more attention than it consumed is rare and the gap between draining and energising content is real over the course of a typical day spent reading widely online.
A well calibrated piece that knew its scope and stayed inside it, and a look at elmharborvendorcollective maintained the same scope discipline, scope creep is one of the failure modes of long blog posts and this site has clearly invested in the editorial discipline to prevent it which shows up in tightly contained pieces.

Just want to recognise that someone clearly cared about how this turned out, and a look at createforwardprogress confirmed that care extends across the broader site, you can feel the difference between content shipped to hit a deadline and content released because the writer was actually proud of the result for once.
Worth flagging that the post handled an angle of the topic I had not seen elsewhere, and a look at rivercovevendorroom extended that fresh treatment, content that finds underexplored corners of well covered subjects is genuinely valuable and this site has demonstrated that exploratory editorial approach across multiple pieces in my reading sessions today.
Now I want to find more sites like this but I suspect they are rare, and a look at solarorchardartisanexchange extended that thought, the few sites that meet this quality bar are precious specifically because they are rare and finding others like them is one of the ongoing projects of careful internet curation across the years.
