Larry Summers Goes Into Hiding; Messages Sought Epstein's Advice On Cheating With Daughter...
In the latest blow to Democrats from the recent 'Epstein files' released by House Republicans, former US Treasury Secretary Larry Summers announced that he's stepping back from public commitments after new documents reveal he was asking for Jeffrey Epstein's advice on how to bang a female mentee behind his wife's back.
Summers - who was Bill Clinton's Treasury Secretary and later president of Harvard University, repeatedly messaged Epstein about a woman codenamed "peril" in 2018 and 2019.
In one January 2019 text exchange, Summers told Epstein that the woman was unlikely to leave him due to his position of power and the professional connections that might come with it - to which Epstein replied, "She is doomed to be with you."
"Think for now I'm going nowhere with her except economics mentor," Summers wrote in November 2018. "I think I'm right now in the seen very warmly in rear view mirror category."
"She must be very confused or maybe wants to cut me off but wants professional connection a lot and so holds to it," Summers then wrote to Epstein in March 2019 - explaining why he believed she continued to engage with him despite tensions, the Harvard Crimson reports.
In at least some of his exchanges with Epstein on the relationship, Summers appears to refer to macroeconomist Keyu Jin '04, a tenured professor at the London School of Economics at the time, who is mentioned in a series of late 2018 messages between the two men.
In one, Summers forwarded Epstein an email from Jin asking for feedback on a paper. Summers mused to Epstein that it was "probably appropriate" to hold off on responding.
"She's already begining to sound needy :) nice," Epstein replied. -Crimson
Jin earned her bachelor's degree and Ph.D. at Harvard between 2000 and 2009. Based on the messages, she makes no mention of a romantic relationship with Summers - and it's unclear whether she knew her mentor and the sex offender were discussing her.
In later messages, Summers and Epstein appeared to joke about the possibility that Summers would have sex with her.
