Epstein’s contacts helped kill Australia’s mining tax Peter Mandelson (paid $75k by epstein, now under criminal investigation) forwarded internal mining industry strategy docs directly to epstein during the 2010 campaign against Rudd’s resources tax The strategy: get Xstrata to announce $586m in suspended Queensland projects to manufacture a jobs scare Mandelson literally told them to hide that mining companies were funding the opposition so voters wouldn’t start asking “who governs australia” That tax would’ve returned $34 billion to Aussies The campaign worked. Kevin Rudd was removed as PM, the tax got halved, and what was left got scrapped by 2014 by Tony Abbott The Epstein network was a policy operation for the ultra wealthy. Australia was an easy target.

Epstein’s contacts including Mandelson, helped kill Australia’s mining tax and helped bring down Rudd. Foreign interference.
