In this February 2017 email thread, journalist Michael Wolff asks Jeffrey Epstein to introduce him to Tom Barrack and reintroduce him to Kathy Ruemmler to assist with his upcoming book on the Trump White House (later known as 'Fire and Fury'). Wolff mentions receiving a 45-minute ranting phone call from Donald Trump and admits to writing the book for a 'pile of money.' Epstein responds, agreeing to forward an email to Barrack, but notes that Barrack is 'in the middle o some of the mess' and that everyone in Washington is 'lawyering up.'
