- Kathy Ruemmler, former White House counsel for Obama, emailed Jeffrey Epstein about a PR strategy for MJ White vs. Elizabeth Warren.
- Elizabeth Warren criticized SEC Chair Mary Jo White for leniency in enforcing securities laws and allowing corporate offenders to settle without admitting guilt.
- Mary Jo White pioneered deferred prosecution agreements (DPAs) for corporations, shielding them from accountability.
- Ruemmler and Epstein's exchange highlights the 'Epstein class'—elites who protect each other from accountability for corporate and personal misconduct.
- Mary Jo White later defended Les Wexner, a key Epstein associate, and the Sackler family, linked to the opioid crisis.
- Ruemmler, once a prosecutor in the Enron case, later sided with elites against accountability, even becoming a backup executor of Epstein’s will.
- The Epstein files reveal a network of privilege where connections matter more than ethics, reinforcing class divides in society.
- Rep. Ro Khanna argues that elite accountability is necessary to restore public trust in democracy.
- Democrats, including Nancy Pelosi, initially resisted Warren's criticism of White, showcasing party loyalty over accountability.
- The rot in democracy is tied to elite impunity, where rules selectively apply to those in power.
