Former Obama White House Counsel – and Goldman Sachs’s Top Lawyer – Kathryn Ruemmler RESIGNS Over Epstein Files Showing Her ‘Extensive Relationship’ With the Late Pedophile
The Epstein curse got Kathy.
Kathryn ‘Kathy’ Ruemmler, former White House counsel to Barack Obama and presently top lawyer at investment bank Goldman Sachs, announced her upcoming resignation yesterday.
This comes after a deluge of emails between her and Jeffrey Epstein were released by the DOJ, showing a close relationship where she described him as an ‘older brother’ and made little of his sex crimes.

Associated Press reported:
“Ruemmler said in a statement that she would ‘step down as Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel of Goldman Sachs as of June 30, 2026’.
Up until her resignation, Ruemmler repeatedly tried to distance herself from the emails and other correspondence and had been defiant that she would not resign from Goldman’s top legal post, which she had held since 2020.”
Kathryn Ruemmler educated Epstein on how the law differentiates between underage victims of sex crimes and adult prostitutes. “I think the point is that if she was underage, she could not legally consent to engaging in prostitution,” Ms. Ruemmler wrote to Mr. Epstein in 2015.

“While Ruemmler has called Epstein a ‘monster’ in recent statements, she had a much different relationship with Epstein before he was arrested a second time for sex crimes in 2019 and later killed himself in a Manhattan jail. Ruemmler called Epstein ‘Uncle Jeffrey’ in emails and said she adored him.”
“In her statement Thursday, Ruemmler said: ‘Since I joined Goldman Sachs six years ago, it has been my privilege to help oversee the firm’s legal, reputational, and regulatory matters; to enhance our strong risk management processes; and to ensure that we live by our core value of integrity in everything we do. My responsibility is to put Goldman Sachs’ interests first’.”
