Is there proof of this besides a social media post?

I think this is what they're referencing.

The Oregon Democrat revealed Thursday that a detailed Treasury Department file shows Epstein moved nearly $1.1 billion through just one of his bank accounts, including thousands of wire transfers possibly tied to sex trafficking.

Speaking as the top Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee, Wyden said the still-undisclosed Epstein Treasury file contains “actionable information” that should be fully investigated. (Note: The Treasury file Wyden refers to is separate from the court documents and Epstein associate lists often called the “Epstein files.”)

He said investigators found links between Epstein and sanctioned Russian banks, and payments tied to women and girls from countries like Russia, Belarus, Turkey, and Turkmenistan.

“These are not conspiracy theories,” Wyden said. “These are real leads pointing to an international sex trafficking operation.”

Wyden accused the Trump administration, including Attorney General Pam Bondi, of blocking access to the full file, despite previously campaigning on transparency. He said repeated requests to review the material were denied.

“I don’t know why Trump wants this to go away, but we’re not letting it,” Wyden said. “No one gets to sweep this under the rug.”

He is now calling for the Treasury Department to release the full Epstein file to the Senate so lawmakers can “follow the money” themselves.

Oh dear. I do hope Putin never figures out how much the U.S. would be divided and weakened on the world stage by the release of such material as that. Releasing those files seems like exactly the sort of dastardly thing Russia might do to overthrow America from its position of having its boot on Russia's neck and preventing the glorious U.S.S.R. from reforming.

(Sarcasm, if it's not clear.)

I mean Trump also funneled millions through Russia. Hell he was bailed out by Russian oligarchs in the 90s.
