Australian Investment Banker In The U.S. Department Of Justice’s Epstein Files
By Jamie Mcintyre
Wall Street investment banker and Trump donor, Brisbane’s Luke Thorburn-Calcino, included in the “Epstein Files” release.
The 31-page U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and U.S. Department of State document on the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) “Epstein Files” website assesses Thorburn-Calcino, a patriotic Australian-American and practicing Orthodox Christian, successful investment banker, and counter-intelligence professional as a U.S. “Security Intelligence Concern” and describes his hands-on research processes in the Epstein case(s).
In intelligence parlance, a Security Intelligence Concern typically refers to a vulnerability, threat, or risk identified by security teams—or intelligence agencies—that threatens the safety of data, infrastructure, or personnel.
On a governmental level, these are high-profile concerns—espionage, terrorism, disinformation and subversion—investigated by defense or law enforcement agencies to protect a nation’s sovereignty.
This follows a separate and prior assessment puzzlingly depicting Thorburn-Calcino as a “Threat to U.S. National Security” following his 2016 termination from Manhattan’s prestigious Goldman Sachs, the leading bulge bracket investment bank.
The DOJ website document on Thorburn-Calcino is mostly redacted, showing “FOUO” (For Official Use Only) and “SBU” (Sensitive But Unclassified), with such stonewall-like markings designed to prevent its release to the public and media under any future U.S. Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”) requests.
That said, ANR has been able to obtain an unredacted copy of the “Epstein Files” document which describes a brutal and physical “knocked-out, feared dead” assault by Iran-based Australian national Luke Thorburn-Calcino on a U.S. Intelligence Community operative and ex-Marine referred to within the unredacted DOJ (FBI/U.S. Department of State) document as “U.S. (Embassy) Employee #1.”
The unredacted version hints at the existence of a U.S. Intelligence Community file on Thorburn-Calcino that pre-dated the violent altercation. The unredacted DOJ file also references Thorburn’s ties to “The Moonies,” who were his client in Paraguay, and shadowy U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) figure in Paraguay, Mark Francis Shakespeare—Mark is the son of Bush crony, Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (DCI) confidant, and former The Heritage Foundation Chairman, Frank Shakespeare.
For his part, Thorburn-Calcino says the incident that landed him in the DOJ’s “Epstein Files” was in self-defense, which he says CCTV tapes unequivocally prove, and also followed a physical assault by the same U.S. government employee on the American investigative journalist that Thorburn-Calcino was managing, and the theft of that journalists’ equipment which was placed into a U.S. Embassy diplomatically placed SUV driven by “U.S. (Embassy) Employee #1.”
Known to ANR for half a decade, Thorburn-Calcino claims to have evidence of the Australian government’s involvement and complicity in what happened, and that of a senior Australian government cyber-specialist breaching his personal devices.
Thorburn-Calcino tells ANR publisher Jamie McIntyre that he is proud of his boots-on-the-ground investigative work across many countries and a microcosm of same’s inclusion in the DOJ’s “Epstein Files,” and that “…as a Queenslander growing it, it was instilled in me that the strong(er) should always help the weak(er) wherever possible.”
“Humbly speaking, turning a blind-eye to institutional atrocities hidden in plain sight within our communities to kick back, drink beer, and watch the footy with the ‘someone else will handle it’ chimp-squeak is not my style. As conservative men of all creeds, sometimes we need to rip-in when our politicians and institutions fail us.”
Why is the U.S. Government profiling and assaulting Australian journalists and counter-trafficking researchers?
Beginning around 2019, Thorburn-Calcino has been an architect of much of the U.S. ‘conservative’ media landscape’s coverage (and exposure of their coordinated cover-up at the highest levels) of Jeffrey Epstein’s little-known brother Mark Epstein, and Mark’s “Humpty Dumpty Institute” (HDI).
Epstein’s “Humpty Dumpty Institute” (HDI) is a so-called Foreign Affairs and U.S. National Security-focused “NGO.”
Epstein’s HDI holds long-standing official and formal partnerships with various controversial third-world orphanages.
For decades, Epstein’s HDI has acted as an “intermediary” for U.S. Congress (including the powerful U.S. SFRC) and, bizarrely, the U.S. State Department.
It is rooted in fact and at least three signed U.S. House Disclosure Documents that Epstein’s HDI facilitated secret U.S. Congressional (inclusive of the last “Epstein Files” holdout, disgraced Rep. Troy Nehls) meetings in Kiev with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Zelenskyy’s Generals, and several arms manufacturers and weapons dealers on August 14 2021. This just months before war with Russia began.
Epstein’s “Humpty Dumpty Institute” counts the Israeli government’s preferred arms dealer and crafty logistician Walter Arbib as a decades’ long Director.
Epstein’s HDI is a partner in Ukraine of a crooked Transnistrian orphanage operator, a U.S.-based Moldovan national named Mr. Semen (Sam) Alaverdov.
Hard and tangible datapoints of interest to a global working public; ones that all media either refuse to explore, or obfuscate in the case of Washington D.C.’s Breitbart News.
Rather ironically and also in the course of his investigative work, Thorburn-Calcino was indicated in absentia and remains wanted for arrest in Paraguay for allegedly “extorting and intimidating” one Don Estanislao Franco de Oliveira; Oliveira, a 33-Degree Mason, co-head of the China-Paraguay Chamber of Commerce, and known locally as the “Al Capone of Paraguay,” is a mafioso capo accused of murdering judges, prosecutors and journalists.
Thorburn-Calcino has also faced recent and sinister death threats from Trump-GOP and The Heritage Foundation mega-financier and billionaire, the U.S. military-intelligence community adjacent Mr. Reverge Anselmo.
Anselmo, claiming over email to know of Thorburn-Calcino’s very specific whereabouts and movements, asserted that there are “six agencies trying to find and kill this guy, Luke Thorburn”…and that Luke has “at best, nine months to live.”
Copied into this quarrelsome and disturbing email from the Forbes-listed Anselmo progeny are the CIA’s Mark Francis Shakespeare and Brigadier General Terry Paul, the latter of whom maniacally encourages Anselmo to get on with the job.
A notorious Fort Bragg-based “journalist” also chimed in, in writing to Thorburn-Calcino “This is the military. You’ve been court martialed.”
Luke claims to ANR to be an ordinary private citizen and businessman who, like most of us, just so happens to hold a deep disdain for corrupt institutions and individuals–and their fork-tongued propagandist shields–and with the means and good intentions to try and sensibly do something about it.
Much of his hands-on counter-trafficking research was financed through income Thorburn-Calcino’s small and philanthropic, counter-trafficking centered Family Office derived as a long-standing advisor and institutional sales lead for Mayfair-based, multi award-winning environmental and socially-focused capitalist Dr. Stavros Siokos’ Astarte Capital Partners and its USD $500mm+ Paraguayan portfolio company SilviPar, as well as London’s Yoo Capital (Camden Film Quarter).
