We are just finding out about a child sex trafficking ring involving politicians and billionaires, the world’s richest man does a Nazi salute at a political rally, and the President being an adjudicated sex criminal is probably not the worst thing he has done…

Meanwhile I’m standing here in the checkout line feeling guilty about whether or not I should tip a barista

Something is wrong with our collective notion of morality, and my individual understanding (Oh well, here we are)

    Maxwell’s father worked for various intelligence agencies. This appears to be a blackmail operation by the Mossad and/or the CIA. The former Israeli Prime Minister visited Epstein’s home several times.

      The uncle of the murdered Saudi journalist Jamal Kashoggi had extensive business dealings with Epstein and Israel and the current Saudi ruler MBS was a “friend” of Epstein according to Epstein. Kashoggi was murdered about 10 month prior to Epstein being murderes.

      A lot of the evil of the world right now has been involved with Epstein in one way or another.

        I think we have three major bad acts at play going on in the US, that I’ve been able to link to specific actors, at least. We have FBI and intelligence confirmed Russian misinformation campaigns exploiting our right to free speech. We have Chinese narcotic warfare (see Opium war), as posited by the DEA - fentanyl precursors are mostly Chinese. And we have the Epstein honeypot operation conducted by CIA/Mossad/Organized crime influencing policy for decades. See these two volumes.

      You know I didn’t really think about that.

      I know of the connection between Maxwell and Mossad.

      Obviously Mossad needs a way to influence billionaires more than just money. The AIPAC (or whatever) has no real ability to sway them.

      The sudden acceptance by western countries acknowledging Gaza a state? Could be that Mossad and AIPAC lost their influence.

      The billionaires want Maxwell free because she gets them things they cant normally buy, plus other kickbacks from Israel I presume.

      I don’t think it’s blackmailing the billionaires, it’s just out right not giving them what they want.

      Her father’s funeral was attended by multiple former Mossad chiefs. It’s believed he gave israel the bomb.

      I’d definitely look in that direction.
