The fallout from the latest release of files related to Jeffrey Epstein is spreading both in the U.S. and overseas.

Britain’s Prime Minister Kherson on Thursday apologized for appointing Peter Mandelson to be his ambassador to the U.S. Files later showed Mandelson was closer to Epstein than previously thought.

The World Economic Forum is investigating its CEO, Borge Brende, over his alleged ties to Epstein. Brende insists he was completely unaware of Epstein’s criminal activities.

And in the U.S., Brad Karp is stepping down as chairman of the influential law firm Paul, Weiss due to his appearance in the Epstein documents, though he will stay on with the firm.
