I've spent weeks inside the Epstein files — not looking for names, but for infrastructure.
What I found: Jeffrey Epstein wasn't just a sex trafficker. He was a switchboard — routing government secrets, Wall Street intelligence, and political power through one network.

🚨BREAKING: Les Wexner appears stunned when questioned about the $1.3 billion in L Brands stock Jeffrey Epstein allegedly sold — and the hundreds of millions Epstein is accused of stealing.
OVERSIGHT: “Several hundred million dollars is a large but imprecise figure. To the best of your knowledge, how much did Epstein steal?”
WEXNER: "I don't know. I don't think I'll ever know."
OVERSIGHT: "The Trust that he was Trustee of recieved gifts of Limited stock and he would then sell that stock on the NYSE and then use a portion of those proceeds for his own personal purposes. Do you have any knowledge or recollection of what I just described?
WEXNER: "I'm effing surprised. I'm shocked. I've never heard of it."
OVERSIGHT: "ABC publicly reported this years ago. It was never on your radar?"
WEXNER: "Never."
OVERSIGHT: "The report says Epstein moved about $1.3 billion in stock this way — not that he kept it all, but total sales exceeded a billion dollars and you have no knowledge or awareness of that?"
WEXNER: "I don't know the amounts. The only trusts I’m aware of are the ones my wife set up for our kids."
OVERSIGHT: "It’s also been reported that Epstein transferred $20 million in stock and cash from two of your charities to one of his own... Do you have any knowledge or awareness of that?"
WEXNER: "Effing shocked. I'm appalled. I never heard that."
Do you believe him?
Is this a billionare's incompetence — or something much bigger?

The Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling on February 20, 2026, invalidated most of President Trump's sweeping tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), finding they exceeded presidential authority. This directly impacts the revenue collected from those tariffs.
Tariff duties collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) are deposited into the U.S. Treasury's general fund. This is the main pool of federal revenue (alongside income taxes, etc.) used for government spending as authorized by Congress through appropriations—no special earmarking for tariffs exists, despite some political claims about funding specific programs.
### What Happens to the Money Already Collected?
Estimates vary slightly across sources, but the invalidated IEEPA-based tariffs generated roughly $130–175 billion (with figures around $133–175 billion commonly cited through late 2025/early 2026, and total customs duties hitting ~$195–287 billion in FY 2025 including pre-existing tariffs).
- The government will no longer collect new revenue from these invalidated tariffs going forward.
- Importers (businesses that paid the duties) are generally entitled to seek refunds for duties paid under now-invalid authority. This could involve:
- Filing protests or claims with CBP (U.S. Customs and Border Protection).
- Potential litigation in courts like the Court of International Trade if needed.
- The refund process is expected to be complex and messy (as noted by justices during arguments and in coverage), involving millions of import entries from hundreds of thousands of companies. Some deadlines may be waived, but not all payments will automatically qualify—especially if entries were already "liquidated" (finalized) without timely protests.
- Refunds go back to the importers (typically large companies or retailers), not directly to consumers. While some higher prices from tariffs passed to buyers, there's no broad mechanism for individual consumers to claim rebates.
- The federal government would need to pay these refunds from the Treasury (potentially increasing borrowing or cutting elsewhere short-term), reversing much of the revenue previously counted toward the budget.
### Broader Implications
- The ruling doesn't eliminate all tariffs—some (e.g., on steel/aluminum under other laws like Section 232) remain in place.
- The administration may try to reimpose similar measures using different legal authorities, though that could face new challenges.
- Net effect: Much of the "money received from tariffs" (the IEEPA portion) effectively gets returned to businesses via refunds, reducing the federal windfall that had boosted collections dramatically in 2025.
In short, the collected funds aren't "gone" but largely face reversal through refunds to importers, shrinking the government's net revenue gain from this policy. The exact refund timeline and total could take months or years to fully resolve through administrative and legal processes.
