Senator Elizabeth Warren sends letter to JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon questioning Epstein-linked U.K. lobbying

Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren sent a letter to JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon asking whether he lobbied the British government against a 2009 banker bonus tax on the advice of Jeffrey Epstein. The letter follows the release of Justice Department documents including emails showing Epstein discussing efforts to influence the proposed tax with then-Business Secretary Peter Mandelson. JPMorgan denied that Dimon ever met Epstein or took counsel from him, directly or indirectly.

The split, in one line
