This document is an email chain from May 22, 2017, between Jeffrey Epstein (using jeevacation@gmail.com), lawyer Reid Weingarten, and Washington Post reporter Ashley Parker. The correspondence reveals that Weingarten was a finalist to be President Trump's outside counsel, and he sought Epstein's advice on the matter. Epstein asked Weingarten if he wanted the role or if it should go to 'jared' (contextually likely Jared Kushner), prompting Weingarten to ask for Epstein's 'view' before Epstein suggested they speak directly.
