🇬🇧 Prince Andrew, son of Elizabeth II and brother of the King of Britain, bought a minor from Epstein, raped her and killed her — according to the files
-;The only punishment he previously received for this was that Andrew was stripped of all titles and royal patronage. No criminal case was opened.
– Now the prince has been evicted from his residence in Windsor amid the Epstein scandal — The Sun reports.
– Andrew left the residence earlier than scheduled.
– Sources claim that King Charles is increasingly concerned about the “shocking revelations” that have resurfaced in the media. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s departure from the mansion was so humiliating that he decided to do it at night.
– The scandal surrounding Andrew, who was previously stripped of his titles and duties, continues to undermine the reputation of the monarchy. It emerged from the declassified files that the ex-duke wrote to the financier about wanting to become his “pet”. One of the financier’s victims claimed that she was forced to have sex with Andrew three times when she was 17 years old.

I am bringing a comment from the last Open Thread and want to expand even more reading other commenters above
 
 I watched the Diesen/Crooke piece this morning and its good as usual 
 
I wrote before that Iran has escalation dominance and that was before the backing off of the ships and now move of talk venue and scope….the point Crooke made was that with nuclear deal come complete removal of sanctions which I agree with
 
 Since we [karlof1 and me] both know that empire will keep pushing Iran until stood up to it was nice to hear from Crooke that China has a communication ship moving into position near Iran and China and Russia warships are going to show support which complicates US warship bullying, eh?
 
 The shit show continues until it doesn’t and I dare Hollywood to put out a competing soap opera to the one we are watching.
 
The financial transition to a new global order does not have to happen all at once with all countries….what if China said NO to empire sanctions and subsumed the Iran Rial under the China financial system and said to the RoW?….no sanctions on Iran through us.
 
Have I beat my one note drum today about our species being in a civilization war about public/private finance?…taste the new social contract sausage we are making over in the corner of the bar…..grin

The US has found no evidence of Russian interference in the Romanian presidential election (EADaily, February 4, 2026 — in Russian)

TikTok’s administration has found no evidence of Russian interference in the 2024 Romanian elections, according to a report following an investigation by the US House Judiciary Committee.
 
“According to the document, the platform’s internal review did not confirm allegations of a coordinated foreign influence campaign, including through the use of bots or the manipulation of TikTok’s algorithms, during the Romanian electoral process,” the report states.
 
It is noted that TikTok’s findings do not support the accusations previously made publicly against the platform and Russia.
 
As a reminder, in 2024, opposition candidate Călin Georgescu won the first round of the Romanian elections. However, the results were annulled by the Constitutional Court, and Georgescu was excluded from the presidential race. The opposition’s success was linked to alleged Russian interference in the elections, including the use of bots on TikTok.

Il-76 touches down in Cuba. Cuban-Russian energy cooperation perhaps to follow? I’ve speculated on this, and I feel like it’s likely that Russia will step up oil exports to Cuba to make up for shortfalls caused by Sheinbaum’s capitulation to our zionist government.
 
Sheinbaum, of course, is no dove toward the left. While MORENA postures as a left-wing force, it has also stepped up aggression against the Zapatista rebel communities in Chiapas, in addition to its abandonment of Cuba. She is also likely to allow the US’s drug trafficking agencies (such as the CIA and DEA) to step up their efforts in Vincente Fox’s drug war, a drug war which has consumed the lives of tens of thousands of Mexicans, guilty and innocent alike. AMLO promised decriminalization, which he was unable to secure. Decriminalization is probably the only way to end the drug war and reduce the power of the cartels. But we’ll keep banging our head up against this rock until our brains fall out.

Talks between US & Iran collapsed according to the well known Mossad agent from Axios. How can any country negotiate in good faith when US wants you to basically capitulate? 
Maybe there would have been a case for nuclear talks for removing all sanctions, but when you include the defense program (like the ballistic missiles & any support to allies), you ask Iran to just surrender completely. It’s absolute madness.
I might sound like a complete troll but if China (I don’t have expectations from Russia anyway) does not help Iran during this period with everything they need, then any sort of agreement or partnership with China is meaningless for smaller nations under attack by Western countries.

Guancha today has an excellent report about the Mandelson uproar in UK that’s in Chinese but translates well. The revelations from this batch of the Files has cause great revulsion from those reading them. Krapivnik’s chat with Diesen yesterday became a rant about those revelations and their connection to Nazi behavior–they are the same. At the 43 minute-mark Krapivnik says the Justice department said we didn’t include the images of the murdered, raped, etc., but they didn’t say those things didn’t exist–they do. Given what we know about the Nazis past and present and the training/instructions given to Daesh/Isis and what they did to Iranians, and what Zionists do to everyone/anyone that gets in their way, I think I’d go beyond what Krapivnik calls them–“deranged animals”–but don’t know exactly what words I’d use aside from them being Anti-Human.

Yes, Iran has the cards. I see no way for Trump to extricate himself from the trap he laid for himself. The Yo-yoing of markets is making money for some, but what’s being done with their paper gains is unknown. And so the Epstein Files ought to rise again given their luridness, but how deep will the examination into the gore procede? 
 
As I reported on the prior thread, the Xi-Putin conversation was certainly important as was the outcome of the team talks that preceded it. That Ushakov provided such little substance was key as it “bolded” what was revealed as I noted. Trump’s lie about India stopping Russian oil purchases still exists but’s been buried. I noted RT’s lie about what Xi said in his two-year-old speech. There’s more today at Guancha that I’ve only begun to explore. Here are the opening three paragraphs of an article I just opened that connects the “killing line” with the Epstein Files:
 

A few days ago, a friend asked me what I thought of “Prison A” and asked me if many of the horror things he said, such as cannibalism, were true. I wanted to find news and data to discuss this matter in more detail, but the U.S. Department of Justice released a new batch of Epstein files in the past two days, which saved me trouble.
 
 
In fact, over the years, the Epstein archives have been published many times intermittently, and there is not much new. But for the Chinese, after experiencing a series of “disenchantments” of American society represented by “Prison A” last year, the Epstein case provides more fresh material.
 
 
The Chinese have finally begun to realize that the darkness reflected in the Epstein case is not an anomaly that can be ignored or only regarded as curiosity, but a systemic pathology that is the norm of the entire Western society.

  
Although it paints with too wide a brush, the last clause has great truth. Chinese will make comparisons with what the Japanese did during WW2 and look at today’s connections. 
 
I should also mention the article examining the just concluded trade agreements between India and EU and Outlaw US Empire from China’s perspective. I need to make a choice for today’s substack article.

Re: Epstein
 
Barring an explosion of hostilities between Iran and the Entity this Friday, conservative commenter Nicholas Fuentes, the most important voice on the right currently, has promised to deliver a thorough take on Epstein, his contacts, his possible handlers, and the release of the DOJ documents.
 
Last year, Fuentes did a few shows on the state of “dissident conservative media,” centered around an expose of Tucker Carlson. It was completely brilliant, implicating Carlson and his Father in the mission of the CIA, its ties to Mossad, and the Neoconservative ties that bind both and the origin of this thinking in formerly leftist Jews who switched allegiance after the Soviet Union backed the Arabs in ’67, the Six Day War, and even before this.
 
I have very mixed feelings about Fuentes and his shifty views. He more or less seems to come down on the side of the Donroe Doctrine and even supports keeping Iran away from the bomb.
 
However, the shows he did on Tucker, et. al. were very good. It you can stomach his delivery style and aping of Rush Limbaugh, he does give a lot of food for thought. I will link the show if it transpires and we do not launch an Iranian invasion before then.
 
The Epstein thing is a constantly moving misdirection from TPTB. It certainly resembles Pizzagate and the Satanic Panic of the 80s before this. So far, I think Fuentes has been correct about Epstein and that the rrality is far less sensationalist than the hype.
 
I tell my daughter all the time: remember, these people want to shock you with outlandish claims and cruelty, whether about professed satanism or other acts of debauchery. I am thinking of that “spirit cooking” artist Maria Abramovich. Total shock jock and anti-Christian. Probably a nice person and probably talented, definitely a “transgressionist.” But I am continually left wanting when it comes to a smoking gun of ritualistic sacrifice.

As long as we’re talking about broad eras, I think two eras are beginning to fade away – capitalism as the dominant global economic system and the age of oil. These shifts might take 50 to 100 years plus an intervening “dark age” before something else semi-civilized emerges.

Animals do not behave like these creatures and the majority only kill to defend themselves, survival or food, which is generally the same thing. It is probably useful to refer to them as monsters, or as I generally label them creatures. 
 
 
You mentioned mandelson, and as we know the British government chose him, even knowing his relationship to Epstein for the ambassador to America position. There are many pictures of him laughing with trump in the white house, unsurprisingly, they obviously know each other very well. Also, and it is not so well publicised, this homosexual deviant was a European commissioner for trade. He was caught with the oligarch Oleg Deripaska and Nathaniel Rothschild in a Siberian bathhouse, they entered the country illegally, without presentation to border control. At this time Deripaska was the president of Rusal, the world’s largest aluminium producer. Mandelson after the trip proposed removing trade restrictions from Rusal. Rothschild sued a media outlet and lost the case. Anyway there is a lot more with these creatures, and it should also be remembered the ZALK aluminium factories in Ukraine, now Russian Zaporozhye. And yes they were fighting Iraqi born British jews for the control of that industry, stolen from us by him. I will not say anymore about that, because there is so much and it travels to the top of ours.
 
 
So I will talk about the shock, outrage and other assorted emotions about Epstein and this network. It should not only focus on political or ruling classes because it is much deeper rooted in the world and peoples, our societies. Many from the entertainment industry, and not only artists, but the owners of sporting teams and players. Many sports, basketball, football and even auto racing, the former president of the international federation for automobiles a french citizen, who by the way had a private aircraft supplied to him for many years by the United Nations, because some road safety program. Various drivers, including from Ferrari. Therefore it is not unreasonable to now believe that almost everything and everyone involved in it, is and are controlled. All part of social engineering that has conditioned the majority to accept so many unreasonable and inhuman things, like the historical and ongoing genocide of Palestinians. The revision of history, the non sensical scientific claims, the restrictions of freedom. Did all of it come from Epstein? Of course not, but throughout our lives and hundreds of years we do not know how many creatures and networks like this existed or exist today, that have delivered us to almost total compliance.
 
 
As you know I am critical of everyone and everyone and all things related to them for this reason. And there is very good reasons to be suspicious of everyone operating in the public view regardless of position.

I was just watching Jackson Hinkle, who is ok. I am not a fan of anyone, I want to collect as many viewpoints as possible.
 
Hinkle went on about the “deal” and negotiations.
 
I understand he has to speak to his paying audience.
 
There is no deal, and there are no negotiations.
 
Iran is incompatible with the West, and so, it is targeted for destruction. It’s not about X% uranium enrichment or access to the Iranian banking system.
 
In Iran, all of those people involved with Epstein in America would all be put to death. Maxwell would have been put to death. Trump would be put to death. Bill Clinton, also to death.
 
Understand the reality and scope of the conflict. All this chatter about negotiations is meaningless. Yes, the Iranians and Russians talk about negotiations, but they are not stupid about the likelihood of success. America was agreement incapable 10 years ago. It has only become moreso under Trump.

The  term “diseased spirit” already exists as  translation of  “psychopath”, from prefix “psycho-” and suffix “-path”. Useful because   suggests  what must be remedied [but not how].
psycho-… from Greek   psykhē “the soul, mind, spirit; life, one’s life, the invisible animating principle or entity which occupies and directs the physical body; understanding, the mind (as the seat of thought), faculty of reason”

Hmm. Tried to post a link to indi (dot) ca with the text. Trying again but just the main excerpt:
 

For all the talk about Jeffrey Epstein, I would like to remind you that Jeffrey Epstein was killed. I say killed because what else do you think happened? The security cameras around his cell mysteriously failed and the footage that was released is missing 2:53 minutes too. Now the same people that cut the cameras outside Epstein’s cell are cutting up his files as well, while we get distracted by salacious detail. But as Silvio Dante said“Our true enemy, has yet, to reveal himself.”
 
Remember that Epstein was part of a bigger conspiracy and that conspiracy goes on without him. All we’re getting is limited hangout of edited information. No one is being charged with anything. There are no cases. What’s really happening is nothing, and what’s actually happening is an act. A lot of accounts and no accountability. So Bill Gates gave his wife STDs, Donald Trump called Black girls ‘boogers,’ and Noam Chomsky was a phony, so what? This is all just gossip until someone gets indicted and just distraction until someone’s detained, which isn’t happening. All that’s happened out of all the Epstein releases is the Prince Andrew has to use a last name. What a charade.
 
The real question is not who Epstein raped (nobody cared or cares about these lost girls), nor is it who he raped with (seemingly everyone). The question is who killed Epstein? because that leads to the source. And the corrupt Western press doesn’t even ask anymore. They just accept the story that security cameras in a high security don’t work for the exact time required to unalive someone. They’re just happy for the clicks from the salacious details of the crimes he committed, and not the crime syndicate he’s a part of. They’re just in it for the stories, and they miss the plot.
 
Indeed, we should question why anything is being revealed at all. The US government hasn’t released the JFK files for nearly a century, they can just not. Then we should question what they’re releasing. It’s not part of a case against any of these people, and we already knew Bill Clinton and Bill Gates and Donald Trump were dirty dicks before. What the Justice Department is doing is more akin to ass-backwards blackmail (I call it whitemail) than any application of justice. They’re just dumping dirt in public and not following up on it. This is not coming up in court, but in the court of public opinion, which the elites do not actually care about anymore. They’ve been killing children in public for two years, what’s raping children going to budge?

Offshore vaccine funds. Pandemic reinsurance triggers. Donor-advised fund structures designed to profit under the cover of charity. Simulation programs. Career pipelines into pharma and the World Economic Forum. All built years before COVID-19. All running through Gates, JPMorgan, and Epstein. We now have the documents. 🧵👇

Xinhua News and multiple media outlets …
 

Iran’s nuclear talks with the United States will be held in Oman’s Muscat on Friday, Iranian Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araghchi said Wednesday.
 
He said on social media platform X that the talks will take place at around 10:00 a.m. local time (0600 GMT), thanking the Omani side for “making all necessary arrangements.”
 
Shortly after, several Western media outlets reported that Washington has agreed to hold the talks on Friday in Oman, after being lobbied by at least nine Mideast countries.
 
The announcement came after several media outlets reported earlier in the day that the talks could be cancelled over the two sides’ disagreement on location and format.

1/🚨 The DOJ just released thousands of pages of Epstein files. And buried inside them may be one of the biggest bombshells no one is talking about: The blueprint for a 20-year financial architecture designed to turn pandemics into a profit center. 

That should not be a bombshell. It was obvious from day one in March 2020 that ‘covid’ was a total fraud and a crime against humanity. It was a business model, more precisely the same business model that existed on Bill Gates’ operating system: First you issue the ‘virus’, then you charge for the ‘solution’.

Very pleased to read your reply. I trust you’re well. Agree that psychopath is a proper descriptor, although it sounds too weak. However, as some note, Epstein was merely a soldier within the institution he worked for, a point Tom makes at 46 above. The Inquisition was an Institution of an even larger entity, and IMO this is the model for everything Epstein. Those he worked for are the ones we must seek for they are THE psychopaths.

Not necessarily opposed to anything you say here. I will just address what you say about the “right.”
 
Historically, I think “the right” changes depending on what context it is used.
 
Already mentioned many times that pornography, for instance, might be identified by the left as protected speech, whereas the right seeks to restrict it.
 
Things get interesting when we notice that country like China has banned pornography and yet we view them, overall, as more leftist.
 
And whether or not you want to go back to a prior age when these labels like left or right meant something concrete, I think to desire this is misguided and impossible. Context is everything.
 
In the American sphere, Fuentes is considered hard right.
 
And we need these abstractions to parse certain realities about our situation.

Savil one of our Epsteinesque ‘grandees’ who appeared to have come from nowhere post war to become rich and famous was one such rapist, paedophile and necrophile. Best mates with the royal family and Maggie too!
 
Starmer the current rentboy tantrum victim was the appointed director of public prosecutions – protected Savil and all the associates.
 
He was appointed by the blairite high command Mendelsson Blair Brown and Alistair Campbell.
 
He was selected trained and trusted to deliver the protection from prosecution after the blairites passed the torch to Cameron/Bozo Bullingdon bum boys.
 
Starmer would have been wholly controlled and compromised to be given such a task as DPP, heck he was even handed a knighthood! That is not standard until later in peoples ‘careers’. Obviously the rent boys and photos would have been made to ensure his fealty.

The point is how many Epstein-like cells have there been or still exist in the world. It might explain why so many politicians seemingly tow the line at some point in their careers to be willing supporters of the Zionist state. Lead or gold in the envelope. Even Jews don’t escape this one if it suits the purposes of the top Zionists. My view is that this goes way back to the pedophile groups that even Emmeline Pankhurst refers to in her account of the struggle to get women the vote in Britain when she was perpetually conned by the British government and its lofty politicians.

I admit that I should probably be labeled a fascist because I think what is known as right and left in the U. S. Could certainly agree on many sensible policies, as I outlined above. But that would make the left and right bound together in the fasces and we all know that means the Jews would have a tough go if ever we did come together.

At least 21 Palestinians have been killed so far and 38 injured in Israeli strikes across Gaza today, according to the health ministry.

My (tragic) translation is that the US empire and it’s Zionazi Khazar outpost won’t meet Vučić’ deadline of “48 hours”. I’d say at least not even within a week from now. Because the Zionazi cowards beat up the defenseless child when they can’t attack the person who can defend himself.
 
https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/the-western-press-are-trying-to-spin
Caitlin Johnstone has a good take on Epstein. It seems part of the MSM propaganda system has gone in overdrive to shift Epstein’s crimes and the Zionazi’s he worked for and who actively supported the domestic adversaries of the current Russian president, on the latter.
 
Not that she says it by it’s clear that Epstein was an Israeli intelligence operative who’s mission was to create leverage on as many high profile people as possible so they could be coerced in the future when need be. People from British and Norwegian royals, to past and current US presidents, the Dalai Lama, you name it. Leverage as a result of death, murder, pedophilia of 9 year olds.
And then what you get are people with a clear conscience like Hüseyin Dogru, Tony Greenstein, Fransesca Albanese and many more exposing Zionazi genocidal crimes in the ME who are socio economically executed without trial.

Left and right are paradigms and labels that belong to the ruling class. It’s like they assigned us team names and colors and then rang the bell so we can all bludgeon each other to death. Once we’re distracted, they can rape and murder young kids to their black hearts’ content.
 
We all want clean air and water. We all want good, nutritious food. We all want security and respect. Everything that the modern political parties do not stand for.
 
Instead, they have “wedge issues” and wage culture wars, as literacy drops and education has become a class system.
 
As the debt rises, as the infrastructure decays, as the society fractures.
 
And they are laughing all of the way to the bank. Read Epstein’s released emails. It’s all a game to them.
 
Why play a game you cannot win and which is stacked against you? I am not saying people should overthrow systems of oppression, but at least don’t adopt their language and narratives.

Hey everyone please STOP focusing on the paedophile aspect of Epstein. Relevant yes but only as a honey trap.  The important thing is WHY. 
 
Obviously it was a MOSSAD operation (think Robert Maxwell) and was for the purpose of corrupting/blackmailing/duchessing currently important, emerging or well connected people.  I suspect it was not just sex but probably cocaine and other substances.  Child sex certainly would be a serious blackmail card, ut the sex with attractive 15 year olds more like an extended party time than outright blackmail. 
 
To be honest I have not a lot of patience with the but she was 15 stuff.  Girls that age are sadly mostly already sexually active (as are boys if opportunity arises). It is not like we live in a society where a girl’s virginity matters. It did  100 years ago but not any more and most definitely not since about 1975.  Are the guys involved despicable, sleazy opportunists, yes but sadly probably no worse than 80% of men if the opportunity arises. So lets think about what it was really about.
 
It is about CLASS and elitism. By being invited to Epstein’s place people (women too) believe they are part of the “in-crowd”  like the cool kids in high school.  The whole sex angel is a diversion, except for a few real paedophiles and the druggies, it is mostly about the concept of “duchessing” ie making people think they are part of the cool kids class and doing everything asked to ensure they belong.  Attracting Royals is a great incentive. 
 
The real issue is WHY and who benefits. The obvious answer is Israel mostly, but a few others as well.  it is most definitely the elite financial class who make money from the work of others and think they are entitled. the British upper class old Etonian crowd are as much a part of it as the Mossad agents.

After his chat with Putin, Xi engaged Trump in a phone call. Here’s a portion of the Global Times report/editorial on the underlying topic of Global Security:
 

In his phone call with President Trump, President Xi stated: “In the new year, I hope to work with you to steer the giant ship of China-US relations steadily forward through winds and storms and accomplish more big things and good things.” He also mentioned that both China and the US have important items on their agendas this year, pointing out that “the two sides should follow the common understandings we have reached, enhance dialogue and communication, manage differences properly, and expand practical cooperation. It is always right to do a good thing, however small, and always wrong to do a bad thing, however small. We should make progress step by step to build mutual trust, find the right way to get along, and make 2026 a year where our two major countries advance toward mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation.” President Trump also made positive remarks, stating that “the US would like to work with China and make more progress in bilateral ties,” adding that he “understands how China feels about the Taiwan question.” [My Emphasis]

 
IMO, Trump doesn’t like being lectured by those smarter than he, the emphasized sentence above being but one example. Eurasia is slowly eclipsing the Collective West as the dominant center of the world. That Trump had to back-off his negotiating demands with Iran and agree to Tehran’s terms is but one small example among many very recent events listed by the editorial.

Yep. There are multiple possible reasons for them releasing what (little) they have (considering not even 50% and victimizers names and other serious redactions). The limited hangout makes the most sense in the context of Trump/MAGA campaign promises to do so if elected and numerous high profile influencers and figures in the MAGAverse actually getting pissed when it became clear they weren’t really going to do it. Mid-terms, distractions from other geopolitical/economic issues like the assassination of boat people, the illegal kidnapping of Maduro (anyone heard anything about that guy lately?), plans for Iran, etc. Also, as always the ongoing Gaza genocide.

“The whole sex angel is a diversion,”
 
 
While you are right about focussing on cui Bono you perhaps don’t appreciate the longevity of the ritualisation involved.
 
 
This depravity didn’t just start with Epstein and it certainly hasn’t ended with his supposed demise.
 
There are probably more child sex slaves and worked to death slaves today then were last year. Ever at anyone time before.
 
It takes a specific mentality that considers that to be a normal state of affairs in humanity.
 
That is resided in the dynastic model that persists over many generations and centuries.
 
That originated in tribal practices. It’s what the khazar empires Kaganites practiced. Still do.
 
Sex is a key component of that. The orgasmic, orgiastic, mental secretions that are so addictive.
 
Death is the other part of the equation. Sacrifice. Blood, flesh – cannibalism as power source.

Speaking of Epstein-ish stuff, there is a lot of lore and mystery behind Stanley Kubrick’s last film “Eyes Wide Shut”. 
 
https://x.com/thecineprism/status/2018961238576013408
 
He died shortly after filming wrapped, and in addition to the constant pushback he got while adapting the screenplay from the original source  material (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream_Story), the studio (Warner I think) cut at least 25 minutes from the film prior to releasing it to the public.

On the targeting of children, this is from the Kiev Trial summary provided by Maria Zakharova during today’s briefing:
 

SS Obersturmbannführer G. Heinisch, who in October 1942 gave the order to shoot 3 thousand children in the city of Melitopol, also pleaded guilty. Three thousand children. Do you know what the reason was? Maybe you think, saboteurs? Maybe some special detachments were formed? No, don’t think so. Their fault, these three thousand children, was only that they were born of mixed marriages. They were rounded up by the police and gendarmerie and then taken to an anti-tank ditch outside the city and shot.

 
Nazis, Zionists, those running Epstein, are all similar. Today’s methods are more “sophisticated”: First the child is used as a sex toy; then it’s killed and its organs harvested and sold for a tidy sum; then what remains is likely burned. They body snatchers are now employed by the Outlaw US Empire–ICE they’re called. And truth be told, ICE is only the most recent “team” as documentation goes back to the beginnings of the transplant organs “market.”

The Epstein scandal, which has been simmering for years in US alt_news comment threads gas exploded in the UK this week as attedntion shifted from ormer Prince Randy Andy and underage girls to the exact nature of former UK Ambassador to the USA Peter (Mandy) Mandelson’s frienship with Epstein, the story behind the large sums of money paid into Mandy’s bank account by Epstein and the lage amounts of sensitive and secret financial and government information passed to Epstein by Mandy.One aspect of the story that has interested me for years but is rarely mentioned in mainstream news is the mystery of Epstein’s enormous wealth. Reportedly the guy did now own any companies or control any hedge funds so how did he afford the private jets, private islands and multiple luxury homes. And how did he manage to fund a network ofsex operatives and procures to draw so many wealthy and influential individuals ino his web? And for what – blackmail? Espionage?The next question is who paid? Certain multi – billionaires have been linked to the scandal but what would they have to gain. Some have suggested he was a Russian or Israeli ‘asset’. It doesn’t seem like Russia’s style to me and what would Israel have to gain when they have a lot of financial an political clout in the US already.My bet is Epstein was working for China.I’d also bet this story still has a long way to run, keeping the focus on sexual depravity has served to contain it, but if as I suspect the Mandelson angle shifts the focus onto who and what Epstein really was I think it is going to get much bigger and wider.
Knowing what everyone who has followed UK politics since the 1990s knows of Mandy’s character, if he goes down, as he now must, he will take others with him, Prime Minister Starmer is already done for but he will not be the last.

william gruffs post from the ‘ukraine sercurity deal’ thread below..
 

Simplicius’s latest raises an interesting possibility, which is that rather than being a Mossad (CIA cutout) tool, Epstein was a Rottenchild asset. This is interesting because it would mean Epstein was operating at a higher level of the capitalist power hierarchy than the Mossad, or even the CIA apparently, and working directly for one of the very apex oligarchs on the planet. I’m now strongly leaning towards the conspiracy theory that Epstein was extracted from NYC alive and well and is happily continuing his hobbies in more tropical climes.   As an aside, I can see from perusing the social media news from the latest batch of released Epstein files why the TDS dembots are working so desperately to tie Epstein to Trump and only Trump. It seems the crowd that gravitated to Epstein tended decidedly more towards the philosophical liberal/libertine camp than socially conservative. That’s some water that the dembots desperately need to muddy.  In retrospect, and considering his higher than previously thought status, Epstein’s connection to the Ukraine that Simplicius details is unsurprising. Perhaps we will soon learn that Epstein was also involved in the child sex trafficking industry from the Philippines too?

Part of her reasoning behind getting the vote was because without political representation women had no rights and so were often predated on in the workplace by higher up men, and women generally had no say within such areas as prostitution – some where clearly slaves in that system back then. She gives accounts in her book concerning quite young girls (underage in todays terms) and politicians visiting brothels that we secreted away in Victorian/Edwardian England. I will try to find references to this again since I read her book many years ago, but never forgot about this. She and the women she represented and worked with were remarkable people in my opinion; they paid huge costs and years of frustration in getting the vote. Surprisingly they were slighted as terrorists but men in previous times had been far more violent and destructive in obtaining the vote themselves.  Another example of how ethical ‘right’ is also might.

Yes, I advised not getting sucked too deep into this depravity saga, but here I am writing about it instead of even messier geopolitics. Human depravity has a very long history that doesn’t look like it’s going to end soon.

To go with my earlier post on the odious Starmer, last for now.
Starmzy only ended up as leader due to the ziofascist blairites failure to select one of their own as the next leader/ine in their hubristic ‘election’ which allowed Corbyn to win!
 
Was likely to be Mrs Balls, Yvette Zionist Cooper. Currently FS, previously HomeSec who dictatorially proscribed Palestine Action as a means of stifling widespread British ground roots protests.
 
Anyway back when the JC miracle happened. The grandees all agreed it was a blunder and that JC should obviously not accept and let ‘one of the grown ups’ have it.
 
When that didn’t persuade JC and crew, they started the ChickenCoups by the blairites, the coordinated defections by the blairite front benchers, the massed media attack by the combined left/right press accusing him of everything from being a terrorist lover to being an out and out Jew hater.
 
They even cobbled together a new election with a clean skin blairite, who was so faceless I can’t even remember his name now.
 
That dumb unprecedentedly leadership re-election, by the NuLabour high command, was defeated by a grassroots real Labour rush of new members who could see what was going on and wanted JC to be the PM that would have saved the NHS from privatisation and reversed the fake education loans foisted on teenagers. Would have guaranteed affordable housing and care etc .
 
It became the largest party membership in Europe!
( no I never was for the record) 
 
Then they tried a rushed general election well before the supposed fix term under Cameron. Foisted upon the hapless tory PM nightmare May! 
 
Supposedly after May went up a hill walk and had a stunning revelation like Moses and came down to declare an Easter election!
 
That folly led to the Tories almost losing that election and threaten their hard BrexShit.
 
It was only to make Corbyn resign after losing. Which he didn’t.
 
So having burnt all the young blairites out of contention through the endless back and front stabbing – they installed their ‘joker card’, starmer into a safe seat adjacent to JC in North London (one they had been trying to take off him for decades!)
He was then shuffled onto the shadow front bench to be the honest broker for the BrexShit negotiations – and there followed such pantomime that ancient parliamentry devices were dusted off – to show the country that Starmer was their man!
 
He was the wormtongue.
 
He was used to destroy the second rushed general election chances of a JC government which he would have been part of and would have led as soon as JC was killed.
 
But they could not take the chance of even one day of JC as PM. That and the fact that dozens of new grassroots MPs were being selected in their constituencies by local members not the top down committee control of the central office.
 
That is why Starmzy was rushed to the front line, and installed to walk the last ge ! The war had to carry on. The zio plan had to succeed. After all, how could it fail? They had everyone by the balls! On film having sex with children. And worse. Of course they would deliver!

2h
Keir Starmer joined CIA-linked Trilateral Commission while serving as Corbyn’s shadow Brexit Secretary
 
He did not inform Corbyn
 
Starmer served alongside 2 ex-heads of CIA
 
Ex-CIA director said in 2019 “we will do our level best” to stop Corbyn
 
Jeffrey Epstein was also a member

Starmer was a zio tool and sexual deviant it seems from day one. The short arse, gel haired, platform shoed toe rag. He still is.
It should be him walking the plank.
It should be all the blairite ghouls still in the Labour Party.
They should all be done for treason and hung.
 
That includes every other uniparty stooge of the Tories and the Fartrage circus. Also their media overlordsand most of the ziofascist entertainers and stenographers who have been thugs at the lead of their old bastards Millenia long howl!
 
 
They are obviously all connected in the ages long Vampyre ball, which is being revealed as being the establishment, deepstate, media and the Bankers Corporatocracy.
 
They are owned by the tyranny of fascism – the Zionazi shapeshifter dynastic families with a very looooong continuum.
 
They are being dragged out into the light and will scream and kill as they turn to dust.

Watched an excellent comedian’s skit that proved Epstein a Mossad Asset. China has no need for kompromat while the Zionists need as much as possible.

HT: Trump’s Urgent Xi Outreach After Putin Video; Fears Grow as Russia Arms Iran, China Shadows Lincoln
 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGFvsIIVT0o
 
“Donald Trump rushed to phone Xi Jinping just hours after the Chinese leader held a warm video summit with Vladimir Putin and vowed a ‘new era’ in Beijing-Moscow ties.
 
As Xi talks Cuba, Iran and Venezuela with the Kremlin, Russian Mi-28NE ‘Havoc’ gunships start arriving in Tehran and a Chinese ‘research ship’ shadows a US carrier near the Iran standoff.
 
Is Warshington being carefully managed while a new axis forms around it?”
 
Hope so.

@ 83
This gets “revealed” again every few years by inveterate Chomsky haters. Chomsky’s reputation is tarnished by his close friendship with Epstein, but the fact that he received funding from the Pentagon is not even an open secret, in the book Syntactic Structures the Air Force is openly thanked for funding his linguistics research.
 
But the more interesting thing I think is how much artificial intelligence research is funded for the purposes of war. I mean, the premise has obvious utility. What if you could make robo-soldiers who don’t think, feel, or develop PTSD? What if you could develop smart bombs that track a single person, say, a general, and blow up them, and just them? We’re pretty close to some of these things, but in a Zeno’s paradox sort of way. The thing to be thankful for is that the bulk of this research is modern day alchemy, and the useful parts are just advanced statistics. Statistics approximate but do not encompass reality. Ironically we know this because the Pentagon funded complexity science in addition to computer science.

 I think the same. Just little bits of info tell me this guy was sought after by the creme de la creme. 
 
 He was obviously very intelligent and very likeable/personable.

Kiriakou (among others): “Epstein was a spy” or “access agent.” Guesses as for whom? Israel and the psycho Zionist friendly elite.
