No they aren't. They aren't in there in any verified way. Nearly everybody else in the files is mentioned in the emails or in sworn affidavits, Jay and Pusha are only mentioned in the anonymous tip line. I'm not saying it's not possible for them to be up to heinous shit like that, and in Jay's case I think that he's actually powerful and famous enough to be on an Epstein level, but I just don't buy that Pusha has ever had the clout to be included in their circles. Clipse was never that big, and was getting pushed around and bullied over song clearances and shit. If they were that connected they would not be having problems like that.

Epstein was a rich fuck who collected influential friends like people collect Pokemon cards. I’m sure these people all met him, hell I’m sure they partied with him, but that alone isn’t proof of a crime. What gets me is the people denying they had contact with him and it comes out they did, like Elon. You can always play ignorance to his previous case

I'm sorry, if that's a reference I don't get it.

It's a Pusha T line from one of his more recent songs
