Robert Kraft is the owner of the New England Patriots and chairman of The Kraft Group. He appears in 9 unique EFTA documents spanning DS1-DS8, DS9, DS10, and DS11. The connections to Epstein run through shared Palm Beach real estate circles, Leon Black's social network, and a remarkable email exchange where Epstein told Steve Bannon that reporting on Kraft's 2019 prostitution arrest was "90 percent inaccurate" and "hes ok" — demonstrating personal knowledge of Kraft's legal situation.

Key Documents

  • EFTA02630940: Epstein-Bannon email (March 10, 2019) — Bannon forwards Yahoo News about Kraft's legal team; Epstein replies "90 percent inaccurate wow. hes ok" — implies personal knowledge of Kraft's legal situation
  • EFTA00840600: Leon Black sister's funeral distribution list — Kraft alongside Epstein, Michael Milken, Stephen Schwarzman, Carl Icahn, Isaac Herzog
  • EFTA01208496: iMessage conversation (Jan 12, 2017) — contact reports Republican dinner with "Bob Kraft", Icahn, Schwarzman, Ray Kelly, Monica Crowley — 8 days before Trump's inauguration; Epstein requests phone call for details
  • EFTA00162971: FBI Dataminr alert (Feb 22, 2019) — tweets linking Kraft, R. Kelly, and Epstein in same news cycle; FBI tracked the parallel

Financial

  • Kraft owned property at 947 North Ocean Boulevard, Palm Beach — sold for $19.7M in 2010
  • Palm Beach real estate intelligence fed to Epstein specifically tracked Kraft's property movements
  • No documented financial transactions between Kraft and Epstein

Robert Kraft is a Zionist POS.

Good to know, glad the innocent president of the USA wasn’t in there

"In the Epstein files" is a meaningless phrase. There are several million files with hundreds of thousands of people in them. "In the files" for what?

Yeah, leave the nice billionaires who associated with a known child sex trafficker alone! They might not be a specific type of piece of shit!

Nice job intentionally misrepresenting and vilifying my simple statement, let's see how it pays off, Cotton.

Like I said, there are millions of files with hundreds of thousands of people. His email contains news reports, so likely the majority of the Democratic party, reporters, like literally anyone could be "in the Epstein Files" and be completely innocent.

Did you not read the title? It tells you why he's in those files.

The title was not in the mentioned Xeet, believe it or not.

i'm sorry, you're complaining because you neglected to read everything posted?

artyom@piefed.social · -3 pts · 2d

No. I couldn't be more clear about my complaint. I don't know how else to help you understand.

You’re right to be skeptical and do some critical thinking. I’ve made a top comment on how he appears in the files.

TLDR; Epstein knew him rather well.

Also important to be careful about not being or ‘barely being’ in the Epstein Files. The total volume on what Epstein did and who ordered him to do what is most likely not in the Americans possession. The Epstein Files themselves are still to this day not fully published, meaning a link as faint as the one between Robert and Jeff can very much be treated as ‘where there’s smoke, there’s fire’.

There are at least 8 datasets in the US that haven’t been made public. And - my conjecture - of the total Epstein operation, there is blackmail that is actively weaponsed today, so very unlikely to be disclosed anytime soon.

So now just everyone is a pedophile? Regardless of whether they're in them or not?

Obviously not what I’m saying. This OP is about a dude who is cosy with a bunch of known sexual predators around Epstein (R. Kelly), Leon Black, etc.

Even if he had zero mentions in the files, you wouldn’t invite him to your kid’s birthday party.

The OP, and this community, are about the Epstein Files. If they're not in the Epstein Files, they wouldn't and shouldn't be mentioned here. If they are, it should be detailed in what capacity.

Its great that that was added after my initial reply, thank you. It's still missing from the Xeet in question, which is what my comment was referencing.
