Gov. Pritzker's cousin steps down at Hyatt over Epstein relationshiphttps://www.theblaze.com/news/gov-pritzkers-cousin-steps-down-as-hyatts-executive-chairman-over-epstein-relationshipThe Department of Justice belatedly released a massive trove of documents related to child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein last month. The documents provide damning insights into the dead pedophile as well as his network of former business associates and friends.
One of the affluent individuals whose name comes up repeatedly in the Epstein files is Thomas Pritzker — cousin of Democratic Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker — who has served as executive chairman of the Hyatt Hotels Corporation since August 2004.

In his letter to the board, which was reviewed by the New York Times, Pritzker said that "good stewardship also means protecting Hyatt, particularly in the context of my association with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, which I deeply regret."
Pritzker noted further that he "exercised terrible judgment in maintaining contact with them, and there is no excuse for failing to distance myself sooner."
The retiring Hyatt executive chairman appears to have maintained a friendship and remained in frequent contact with Epstein long after the sex offender pleaded guilty to procuring a child for prostitution.
Speaking of contacting Epstein after his guilty plea, that was what Whoopi Goldberg did. To so many Libs/Progs, continuing association with him wasn't a big deal until they tried tarring Trump with his associations ... which were before Trump spoke to the local sheriff about Epstein in 2006. Libs and Progs are getting snared by their own guilt-by-association narrative.
