    Tbf, they list their source at the top of the article, which is a site collating the Epstein list references to various individuals for easier public review. Here’s Farages profile, which they were referring to for this article:

    So it’s not like this is some journalist making up arbitrary numbers… The source is readily available for scrutiny.

      Farage is mentioned in two distinct contexts within these documents. First, he appears in social media monitoring reports tracking Brexit discussions and public reactions to his ‘Breaking Point’ immigration poster during the 2016 referendum. Second, and more significantly, he is referenced in multiple reports analyzing Steve Bannon’s efforts to build a global network of nationalist and populist movements, appearing alongside figures like Viktor Orbán, Marine Le Pen, and Donald Trump. These documents describe Farage attending political events and fundraisers in the United States. One document also quotes him praising Putin’s handling of Syria.

      Nigel Farage has no direct connection to Jeffrey Epstein or the abuse allegations. His name appears in these documents because the files include wide-ranging political research and social media monitoring conducted during investigations. The documents mentioning Farage focus on Brexit politics and the international populist movement rather than Epstein’s activities.

      So it’s a massive nothingburger. Sounds like epstein was subscribed to some form of political mailing list or something.

        If you consider the worlds most prolific peadophile ring having a clear interest in promoting right wing populism throughout Europe and the US to be nothing, then that’s a perfectly valid opinion to have. But it’s not one I’d agree with personally.
