Renowned linguist and political theorist Noam Chomsky has appeared in newly released photographs from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein, prompting renewed attention on his past interactions with the disgraced financier. The images, made public as part of a congressional transparency effort in the United States, show Chomsky alongside Epstein in informal settings but provide no details about when or why the meetings took place.
Chomsky previously acknowledged meeting Epstein in a 2023 interview with The Wall Street Journal, where he described the encounters as occasional and largely social. Since that interview, he has made little public comment on the matter, and he has not responded to the release of the latest photographs.
