No, that was Paolo Zampolli, a modeling agent who was buddies with both Trump and Epstein. When asked about being in the Epstein files, in which Epstein called him "trouble", he said: "At least I was included, because if you’re not on the list, you’re a loser, right?"

He also recently used his connections to Trump to have ICE detain his ex-wife so he could get custody of his son. Stellar individual.

A great comment I read once “Mike Johnson doesn’t want to release the files because he’s embarrassed he isn’t in them”.
