The idea that an international conspiracy of oligarchs was the larger motivation for Epstein's activities and the basis of his wealth is neither new nor novel, as your references point out.

AKAIK both the Steele dossier and the Muller investigation suggested such a network was behind Trump, Brexit, and other "situations". For reasons not explained this was not further examined under ANY administration. I have a few ideas about that but no conclusive proofs I'd care to cite here.
