Former prime minister Kevin Rudd said he took immediate action after learning an international think tank he chairs was embroiled in a scandal involving convicted US sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.Norwegian media reported the International Peace Institute and its president received money from Jeffrey EpsteinHe said he ordered an amount comparable to the payments from Epstein be given to a charity
A report last year noted the organisation also received a total of $US650,000 in donations from Epstein's foundations between 2011 and 2019. In the statement, Mr Rudd said he convened a board meeting on December 4, 2019, to recommend an amount comparable to Epstein's donations to the IPI be forwarded to charity.
The statement also said Mr Rudd convened an extraordinary board meeting last week in response to the latest allegations concerning Mr Rød-Larsen, which Mr Rudd said were "deeply" disappointing.
He was happy to take his money. What did his money pay for? What does this NGO do?
Speaking of pedophiles... report on Biden
Yeah right!

These predators can hoodwink many people, Rudd included, they are experts in deceiving people, showing generosity as a smoke screen for their terrible private deeds. Rolf Harris, Jimmy Savile and many more devious monsters who live amongst us.
2020: when the ABC has been so screwed by ScoMo it’s now Rupert Murdoch’s attack dog.
A lot of what Rudd believes in and advocates is the work of the compromat operation Epstein was a part of. Trumps fight against their paradigm resulted in his arrest, and when you reassess global events through this lens you see reality.
Anyone at that level is one of THEM.
Rubbish.
Only when he was told to
And what did your boss Rupert do when he realised he was mates with Epsiein and attended many of his parties?
so they abc is now doing murdochs dirty work? This smear campaign won't works. Murdich flew to Epstiens Island, report that! MurdochRoyalCommission
What crap.... you mean he had no idea someone donated 65k to a boys club
Giving it to charity doesn’t lessen the fault of the board, if so all charities that received money have to contend with receiving “Epstein Money” or a board that accepts Epstein money. There are those at fault, so sack them and/or the board
What did he do. Delete his emails? Get rid of the photos on his hard drive? Delete some contacts from his phone?
Epstein mad donations to heaosof charities, boards, foundations etc. He liked to implicate the powerful and influential with him. Some where implicit, sime not.
I call BULLSHIT
A huh
Quilt by association for other not for Rudd ?
After he was blindsided, somehow not knowing for years that Epstein had pumped more than half a million dollars into his vanity project, then he took action immediately. Maybe Kevvy should have cleaned house before he started a petition against Rupert? auspol
MurdochRoyalCommission
Paid the money back huh Donated it to benefit molested minors huh Waffle as usual
Odious a fitting descriptor for Murdoch
I call bullshit
If this were abbot, you lot would be lynching him. Instead it's 'took immediate action' You're a complete disgrace defundtheabc
This isn't good
Oh no
Rudd said he had no idea of his involvement with Epstein a few hours ago. Back peddling much.
Oh look! Uncle Rupert makes an appearance in Epstein's little black book but Rudd is the bad boy 😂🙄
Book a Trip to his Island?
As long as they got away with it they thought Epstein was a great guy and everything was fun and games . For THEM . Not for the subjects . TruthBeTold OnlineStudentsToo
Got caught. Plain & simple. Grubs.
Oh hi!
Guys I wrote a poem for Rupert Don’t forget the Royal Commission into Murdoch Remember what you are talking about when you peddle for Rupert anti Rudd puff Read the poem Lovely and succinct MurdochRoyalCommision
All tarred with the same brush
Instead of this Murdoch concocted drivel that you are reporting , how about you report on the fact that over 400000 people have signed Rudd’s petition for a Royal Commission into strengthening our Australian media .
Murdoch just fighting back. Really? Is that all they've got? 🤣😂🤣 MurdochRoyalCommission auspol
Of course the guy is dead now
Why did he try to keep it quiet then? These donations were found by him almost a year ago and no media release? He needs to explain his connection to Epstein in full. And the CCP too.
Milky bar Kid on Pedophile Island ?
Sure he did
Spot on Aunty... it was imprudent for MrKRudd to align himself with a think tank! auspol
Kev mate, time to just slip into post PM obscurity like all good Ex PMS should do......
Aunty has finally decided to go after think-tank funders? Can't wait for this story to be told! MrKRudd auspol itsnoteasybeinggreene
Was bound to happen as the MurdochRoyalCommission is getting under Murdoch and the MurdochGutterMedia skin. The petition hit 400,000 this morning now its at402,604. Sign here
Obvious hit job from the Murdoch slime factory.
Friendly Jordies seems to miss the corruption when it stains his chums. *Epstein died over a year ago*
I feel like the Kathrine Keating thing is being covered up by the Murdoch media for a reason. Former PM's daughter linked to two high ranking pedophile elites and we're expected to believe it's because of some chance celebrity meeting.
You know what Rudd isn't currently? An elected official shredding documents to hide corruption. He saw a problem, admitted it was a problem and took immediate action. To ScottyFromMarketing and AlboMP that's what it takes to be a real leader.
How many such men work along side unsuspecting others or invest into business without requirement to disclose their ill. How many have been molested by the church from trust being their weakness. How many associate with such men fully aware of the ill. MurdochRoyalCommission
Rudd and Keatings Daughter hanging out with epstien even after he was a convicted sex criminal. Most decent people usually cut ties with a guy when he starts raping children. Not old Kevin 'bearly 7' and Keato
Epstein had Murdoch's number, where's KRudds?
Murdoch’s relationship with Epstein needs to be investigated
SOOOOOOO basically thru all the BS you did NOT return it or turn it down chicken chits
First pitch - Rudd bats it out of the ballpark with his response What’s the second pitch from team Murdoch going to look like
Non issue. Good to see that Rudd is pissing off the media with his calls for a royal commission. Don't get distracted.
Just a Murdoch distraction from Rudd's petition for a Royal Commission. Don't give it air. BoycottHeraldSun MurdochRoyalCommission
What is it with Leftards and paedophile?
Sorry Kev, not going to fly. Loved hanging around dodgy ppl. especially Chinese ones. Celebrating Chinese military aquisition of US Military affiliated company with foreign agent's the Biden family,
Which is why it's just come out now instead of him being transparent at the time.
Stop supporting Murdoch’s smear campaign. MurdochRoyalCommission
Yeah, bullshit! Rudd rolls out the usual Labor “I can’t recall” defence! No wonder Rudd wants NewsCorp gone, as they won’t run protection rackets like the ABC!
You mean he took action when sprung red handed .
Yeah right
Who else saw this smear coming?
He's just annoyed that he wasn't blackmail worthy enough to get on the plane.
Predictable smear campaign in response to the call for a Royal Commission
Oh so he remembers now
Oh that’s right I remember now. Arse clown and an enabler!!!
And look who Murdoch hangs around with. Bring on the MurdochRoyalCommission
Close links, huh ....
Immediately remembered he couldn't recall anything
AFP needs to undertake royal cum mission to investigate the allegations against Rudd.
