"Peter Thiel-the billionaire venture capitalist, PayPal and Palantir cofounder, and outspoken commentator on all matters relating to the "Antichrist"-appears at least 2,200 times in the latest batch of files released by the Department of Justice related to convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. The tranche of records demonstrate how Epstein managed to cultivate an extensive network of wealthy and influential figures in Silicon Valley."
"The new files show that Thiel arranged to meet with Epstein several times between 2014 and 2017. "What are you up to on Friday?" Thiel wrote to Epstein on April 5, 2016. "Should we try for lunch?" The bulk of the communications between the two men in the data dump concern scheduling meals, calls, and meetings with one another. Thiel did not immediately return a request for comment from WIRED."
Peter Thiel appears at least 2,200 times in Department of Justice files related to Jeffrey Epstein. The records show Epstein cultivated an extensive network of wealthy and influential Silicon Valley figures. Several of those figures, including Thiel, continued to interact with Epstein after his 2008 guilty plea. The files show Thiel arranged meetings with Epstein several times between 2014 and 2017 and exchanged scheduling emails about lunches, calls, and meetings. One email chain included a February 3, 2016 message from Thiel's former chief of staff about Thiel's dietary restrictions that was later forwarded to Epstein. Portions of the correspondence are redacted, while other files list specific approved foods and items to avoid.
