No, Larry Summers, we have heard his name multiple times for years now connected to Jeffrey Epstein.
He, of course, is the former Treasury Secretary, and he announced just a short while ago that, yes, he does plan to resign from his role as a tenured professor at Harvard University.
We have talked about this.
There are certain roles, there are certain positions that people just don't walk away from.
Period.
And that's one of them, a tenured professor at Harvard University.
You don't leave that.
You don't retire to spend time with your family.
And so this is something another major, major, powerful person to fall from this Epstein drop, this latest Epstein drop.
2019 or 2020?
Well, this summer, it'll be seven years.
So six and a half years right now.
And so this is what Larry Summers' official statement was just a short while ago.
I have made the difficult decision to retire from my Harvard professorship at the end of this academic year.
I will always be grateful to the thousands of students and colleagues I've been privileged to teach and work with since coming to Harvard as a graduate student 50 years ago.
Woo.
So he says free from formal responsibility.
He said he looks forward to time engaging in research analysis.
I'm sure it's all going to be behind the scenes.
As you point out, he had already made that public statement that he was retreating based on growing scrutiny and this latest document dump just and I think seeing all the other big names start to fall.
