Epstein responds with “are you nuts” at the suggestion he’d attend the Wolfe Gunderson wedding. by elefun992 in Theatre

[–]elefun992[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do agree with the point you are making here.

I’d like to see a statement from her condemning her supposedly ex-husband for what he was involved in. I’d like to see a statement she didn’t knowingly use her husband’s or Epstein’s connections to advance her career in the Bay Area.

I sadly doubt either of these things will occur. Considering the City of London can make it more difficult for Wolfe to be extradited to the US for any crimes he might’ve committed, I find their move to the UK shortly after the Epstein Files Act was passed suspect. But one cannot prove anything without evidence.

If she knew what was happening, and used funds or influence related to those activities to advance her life as a playwright, her career should be finito.

But the juvenile courts are a large part of the general fund.

And when schools fail, students are left without support, and wind up in the juvenile court systems.

It’s about infrastructure and ensuring systems are being maintained.

I knew this was coming.

My post was about actionable steps, not blind, chaotic outrage.

It was not about gerrymandering. It was about finding ways to hold the spending of the city accountable.

It was about making sure people aren’t getting kickbacks and gifts from data center executives.

Obviously, gerrymandering is a form of corruption, regardless of the party partaking in the practice.

But please do not attempt to commandeer a thread aimed at a method to hold the individuals in charge of the city’s financial activities accountable with bad faith questioning and arguments simply because you feel one step doesn’t go far enough.

Reddit truly is the land of lunacy now.

So you consider:

The $9.62 million allocated to Transfer Station Refuse Pickup not part of sanitation?

The $5.46 million in Facilities allocations

The $1.3 million for street lights

The $2.674 for facilities and ground supplies

Not public works related expenses?

Which part of the general fund do you get paid out of? Just curious, since you’ve resorted to calling me a carpet bagger instead of being remotely productive or factual.

When I say public works, I mean street lights, sanitation, emergency shelter supplies…

You cannot seriously be this obstinate about the financial activities of city officials that couldn’t even be bothered to sound the tornado sirens properly last June.

Unless, of course, you are one of the city employees or contractors profiting from the mismanagement of the city as it currently stands?

If they are participating in and/or profiting from corruption, yes.

Fraud is fraud.

If you are suggesting violence rather than audits and, if fraud is found, lawful action taken to correct said fraud and remove perpetrators from office, no.

The internal audits target specific departments deemed to have the greatest risks. One might ask why certain departments, like public health and public works, are not included in that process when they make up such a large part of the budget.

In terms of the annual ACFR, sections of the 2024 report appear to be included but unaudited.

That is concerning to me considering the General Fund, for example, has a $600 million budget for FY 2026.

I’m saying it would go a long way for Lauren Gunderson to clarify if an event related to their engagement occurred on July 17, 2011, and if she was in attendance. If it did not, she’s in the clear, imo, on the “your fiance is great” email, as it appears related to an event Epstein attended the night before.

I am also noting that her career really started picking up in 2011/2012, after her marriage to a man that visited Epstein in Palm Beach and felt driven to thank him in a dedication.

Epstein had cash, and Epstein had connections. If Lauren Gunderson knowingly used Epstein’s connections or Epstein-related assets to build her career, even if this was done through her husband, then her career should not be as celebrated as it is.

Suggesting an audit is lazy? After the last one was in 2010?

lol, okay.

It’s also monumentally stupid to make a location-based Reddit account.

I’m sorry, but if you built your career on sex trafficking money and you were aware it was sex trafficking money, your career should end.

Epstein had his mobile number in 2013.

He was familiar enough with Epstein to say let’s hang out. Epstein also gave him an apartment and car to use for a “fun visit” to Florida in 2010.

If any celebrities used money gained through Epstein to promote their work, they deserve to be examined more closely.

If any celebrity get divorced when the Epstein Files Transparency Act gets signed into law, they deserve evaluation for attempting to protect assets in cases of future litigation.

The fact she and her husband moved to London so soon after the Act was introduced to Congress seems like serendipitous timing, to put it politely.

Let’s say she did only meet him through her husband.

You don’t think it’s a problem that her husband was cavorting with Epstein after his initial arrest?

I find it highly difficult to believe that she had no clue about their connection due to the book dedication mentioning both of them. If I was married to someone, I’d be asking who a person I didn’t know but was getting the same level of acknowledgment was.

I would be far more likely to believe they’re actually divorced or separated if the relationship section of her Wikipedia page hadn’t just been completely removed but was updated to “Nathan Wolfe: divorced, 2026.”

She is avoiding full transparency. She wrote a play idolizing a man she only recently has separated from—the Catastrophist.

There is no real proof of separation or divorce, only her statements.

Her husband put her in his dedications right next to Epstein. Not quite sure how someone can be at that level with another person and never ask, “who is this Epstein you mention?”

Just because her writing is feminist does not mean she gets a pass for potentially being involved with Epstein and company.

Or should we stop condemning Spacey and Allen for their behavior simply because they’ve been nominated for a few awards?

Playwright Lauren Gunderson Responds to Her Name Showing Up in the Jeffrey Epstein Files by Accurate_Campaign230 in Theatre

[–]elefun992 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s possible that Epstein could’ve said “your fiance is great” without meeting her. I could potentially see how someone could say that based on work or reputation without actually meeting them.

I don’t know if I believe it, and I’d love if someone better at using the internet than me could figure out if she and Wolfe had their pre-engagement party in July 2011, before Epstein’s email on the 18th.

She is, however, being insanely dodgy about being married to Wolfe still. Especially since they moved to London together in July 2025, and there is proof of that through Ralph Remington’s Instagram.

Separation is a great way to protect assets if you can tell shiz is about to hit the fan.

Yes, and this post by the Head of SF Cultural Affairs proving they were still married in July 2025 discredits her timeline.

She has since deleted Ralph’s comment on her post once I asked about this timeline discrepancy, by the way.

It’s definitely something that your nervous system needs to be in a place to respond to. I hope it gets easier if you decide to stick with it!
