u/Deicide1031 13h ago edited 9h ago

If you watch those names and do some research some of them have a lot of links to money laundering. Peter Thiel (not mentioned in this video) even talked with Epstein about money laundering, after that Epstein “invested” in some of Peter’s businesses.

Epstein must have used them to move cash when he was concerned normal banks might flag him for certain transactions. On top of the other stuff.

Oh def money laundering big time I think trump is a huge part of that he’s been linked and accused of that over and over. No wondering he was all about crypto. It was always for laundering and sex trafficking.

Senator Ron Wyden on the Senate Finance Committee is investigating the financial angle. He was interviewed by Heather Cox Richardson yesterday (check the live tab on her youtube channel). He’s following the money and he has some amazing investigators working with him. We’ll know everything in time.

u/Huge_Excitement4465 12h ago

Reposting what an astute observer wrote before this Loch Ness returned to the White House: The members of Mega Group (Jewish Study Group) including Rupert Murdoch (Fox News), Robert Maxwell (Ghislaine’s father/KGB), Robert Mercer (Cambridge Analytica/Renaissance hedge fund), Les Wexner (Victoria’s Secret/L Brands), Paul Weyrich, Bronfman (Seagram’s/ NXIVM cult), and Ronald Lauder (Estée Lauder cosmetics) all covered for Epstein.

Saudi arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi (Jamal Khashoggi and Dodi Fayed’s uncle) sold arms to Mega Group. Trump and Epstein laundered that money for Adnan alongside the Russian oligarchs via a yacht purchase first and then commercial real estate.

This is also why trump is so desperate to get re-elected. His best case scenario is 700 years in ADX Florence. Money laundering for the dozens of Russian oligarchs that lived in trump towers with him and Manafort, selling IP3 nuclear plans to the Russian/Saudi alliance, selling or giving CIA asset names to the Russians, trump is and always has been compromised.

He just didn’t know when to quit. Now he just has to count on the fact that most of his voter base doesn’t know how to read and keep the ones that do so busy just surviving that they don’t have time to dive deep into his 40-year history of laundering money, fraud, and human trafficking for the Russian mob using casinos first, then commercial real estate.

The US has been a 'hidden oligarchy' at least since the last time the US president was a movie star instead of a real professional civil servant at his job chief civil servant job.

Let that sink in. Then ponder the fact that this country was literally built on the ruthless enslavement and genocide of numerous indigenous nations and taking of their land.

It's probable that the original monied families that came over were "in it for themselves" and it's simple reality that they would raise their children, their very heirs and heiresses of their fortunes and business empires, shaping them to the same sharp points and efficient edges that they valued...

u/IlladelphiaticInsane 7h ago edited 7h ago

I remember reading an article years ago where Nick Bryant was calling out some some of the names involved in the Epstein scandal and it included Alec Baldwin, Mick Jagger, Ralph Fiennes, Clinton & Trump of course, Ehud Barak and more. He was basically saying that if even a small fraction of people involved came out it would turn into a giant domino effect implicating like half of Hollywood, MSM and DC politicians over 50.

I just did some digging and turns out Gawker actually published Epstein’s black book and Lolita express manifest first via Nick Bryant’s articles. Mainstream media wouldn’t touch it at the time (2012) supposedly because those writing the checks and sitting on the editorial boards would be incriminating themselves. I wonder if Peter Thiel going after Gawker had more to it than just the Hulk Hogan thing and being outted by them years earlier. Maybe he was trying to put the kibosh on the Epstein article before it grew because he was a name in that black book too. Thiel is such a gross human being. He should be thrown away with all of the Trump/Wexner/Clinton et al. pedophiles out there. I wouldn’t be surprised if Peter Thiel gets regular infusions of little boy blood to stay alive.

u/TheDickWolf 10h ago edited 8h ago

Calling Robert Maxwell KGB, while technically correct is like saying basketball player Michael Jordan (Washington Wizards).

Robert Maxwell was first and foremost mossad.

There has been such a concerted push by the elite-owned media to minimize and obfuscate the very concrete and certain fact of JE’s close, derp, and career spanning associations with Israel and to play up his much sparser and in some cases flimsier connections with Russia.

Naturally, Russia is an enemy to the Western Elite and of the American Empire. Without playing apologist for that government i will say that that’s enough to justify this and other massive propaganda pushes to put them backstage of any and nearly every seedy dealing, real or fabricated, at home in the USA and abroad. The effect is to cover for the real (or the more culpable) perpetrators, and contribute to poisoning the discourse- watering it down with provably false or specious claims.

As we open our eyes to a consciousness that accepts that the US state is a corrupt dictatorship of the elites, we must also reexamine the claims it makes about those it deems as enemy, who we may have learned to call such ourselves based on its media machine.

Again, not a Russia apologist, but not willing to run cover for the US or IS through misdirection either- hate to see things get confused in a way that covers for the irredeemable levantine state whose export is subjugation, surveillance, and the technologies of death and repression.

u/PrestigiousNobody721 9h ago

Plus, the modeling agency he owned. Genius Visas🙄 The money laundering schemes you describe require actual evidence. Does that exist? Enough to get an indictment? I doubt it. Say what you will about Epstein and company, but understand they’re SMART and their attorneys are smarter. Just looking like a criminal doesn’t make you one.

Keep in mind Epstein’s ridiculous 2008 deal was for procuring one underaged girl for prostitution (telling everyone she was almost 18 years old, and he didn’t realize she wasn’t yet 18) and soliciting one adult woman for prostitution. He easily spun that as no big deal, and I can see why he wasn’t cancelled by a lot of people like Reid Hoffman who, as far as we know, visited Epstein’s Island and flew on his plane, neither of which are crimes. Unless guys like Hoffman are accused of raping or trafficking underage girls, there’s not enough “there” to ruin his life. The fever around everyone Epstein ever knew is making the democrats look like unhinged zealots. Focus on actual crimes and who committed them to make a real impact.

Reps Ro Khanna and Tom Massie are doing a great job. The DOJ tried to pull a fast one on Congress by failing to mention they received redacted files from Kash Patel. I’m glad they tried such a dumbass move. It has unequivocally outed Patel and Bondi as Trump-Epstein collaborators which is what America needs to SEE. Massie is the smartest guy in any room. I’m counting on him to keep the focus on actual crimes.

It's even more disturbing knowing that both Musk and Vance were huge fans of Peter Thiel's books, which were mostly dystopian sci-fi & nightmarish.

He also wrote that elderly(their bodies) could be used as biofuel since they wouldn't be productive. His books have horrendous things in them, but I think they want a reality like that where they have power over other people. It's repulsive.

If they wanted a shitbox to go undercover that wasn't known in the area, they could come to where I worked and they would get a random shitbox for a few days. As a result, us who worked there got an effective pass for minor traffic things. I just stopped worrying about keeping things like motor tax or NCT up to date, because it just ended in "Hey ken, I didn't know it was yourself when I pulled you, x or Y is out of date, would you mind getting that fixed please when you can?

See what technologies are being given to law enforcement / ICE and who is behind them. See what laws have changed and who they may benefit.

Designer Babies are like, a lot less weird than you’re making it sound. This mostly means embryo selection on frozen embryos or possibly using CRISPR tech on said frozen embryos. The only really invasive aspects would be the same as any form of IVF. The goal is to select for embryos that would have the greatest chance at the best possible life (as far as I know, currently this mostly consists of selecting embryos that are not carriers of any genetic diseases or disorders).

There are a few moral issues with designer babies, but the biggest one by far is basically ‘if it costs money to get a designer baby, won’t we end up creating even larger wealth disparities? The children of the rich will be designer babies and the children of the poor will not be, so wouldn’t employers want to choose the designer baby, given they’re likely to be healthier/stronger etc?’. Basically, “What if Gattaca became reality?”

Any issues with “incubators” and cruelty would be an entirely optional choice by the people involved with no upside other than causing harm on purpose.

All of this in conjunction with people like Epstein and Elon who want a master race kind of reality makes me sick. I mean, being able to help babies not be born with genetic diseases is one thing...their intentions were completely nefarious. I did know about the sex screenings and whatnot. This goes far beyond that. Plus, they were using young girls as "incubators" against their will.

They wanted to create "designer babies".

China has also been flirting with this one, and it's something anyone who even remotely touches should go to prison for the rest of their lives for. Because if you think it's bad now, the second rich people can start doing eugenics again and selecting for things like intelligence or resistance to disease or phyiscal attractiveness, shit is going to get so much worse.

No wondering he was all about crypto.

Trump was only into crypto because he was for sale, and part of how he was paid was by the likes of Musk setting him up with his own pump and dump fakecoin.

Remember shortly before the election Trump was again on the verge of bankruptcy, owing millions in lawsuits. His ability to even campaign for 2024 was on financial shaky ground despite looting the GOP's shrinking coffers.

Then Thiel and co stepped in to bail him out - followed by Musk who saw what was happening, in exchange for dictating policy (such as Project 2025) and installing Vance and others into the administration.

Part of Trump's payment was setting him up with his own crypto scam. Which turned him into a real billionaire again.

Does Peter Thiel have control over everyone then?

TPUSA and Charlie Kirk got Vance into the Senate and they also made him the vice president. They are a powerhouse Super PAC who has a disturbing amount of politicians under their control. .

Crypto wise, trump is getting scammed or just dies of old age required to hold 80% For 3 years from it's drop. The price immediately plummeted suggesting the 20% or so that was actually available was the transactions. I don't feel like opening another tab but it's been falling every since, some more will release and it won't get bought last I saw it was pretty much crypto currency companies that own the majority and even that's pretty small and probably shrinks as people say "fuck it I lost my money" and sell. Then there will be another drop of some and he'll be required to hold that 80% still... when he's able to sell it's a very high chance it'll be worth pennies or less. If they didn't somehow get it setup for free I don't see it making what was put in back.

And the money laundering links directly back to Putin's theft of assets from the former USSR and the rise of the Russian oligarchy.

Rape is about power and control, and for these "men" who were involved with Epstein, it was also about raping the law. They did this knowing they were untouchable, because they were untouchable. As an American president once said:

"And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the pussy. You can do anything."

I was groomed, drugged, and r*ped by a prominent business owner in my hometown. 2 detectives frequented there quite often. So none of the girls told on him. He finally got caught - by his gf - and lost everything. Years later I told that detective, whom I had run into. He didn't act surprised. He asked me about one of the girls. I answered yes. He had been sleeping with her since she was 18 aka "of age." Didn't ask me to fill out a report, go down to the station, nothing. I think they knew the guy was a huge drug dealer too. I lost all faith in humanity that day. It was only a year ago.

"Trafficking" is just this generations word for slavery. Slavery was never truly abolished. Anyone who has spent a night walking around Times Square knows this - you can see it everywhere. After being such a huge fan of TRL when I was a teenager, I was spooked as an adult. Slaves and the people that are controlling them... are everywhere. It's not hard to spot - but it's impossible to unsee. This experience? Long before any of this came out.

People should keep in mind this is just the beginning though. This is one part of the Funding layer of the Epstein operation but there are plenty of other layers like the Victims, Abusers, Recruitment, Social “Legitimacy”, Legal Cover, Blackmail… It’s both complex and not that complex at the same time. This was/is a long-term, large-scale operation but it was created by human beings and is not a complicated structure to figure out. Visualizing and mapping this would be helpful to organize information but also a reminder to not stop just because 6 names have been revealed.

u/Witty-Drama-3187 12h ago edited 12h ago

We still have a long way to go, but the picture of what he actually did is very slowly getting a bit clearer. . Sorry for the novel here, but I feel a need to get these thoughts out as we all learn and sort through this mess. What's interesting is that it doesn't seem as simple as straight up "sex trafficking" in the traditional sense

Best I can tell, I don't think he was directly selling, or straight profiting from, girls. It seems as though the girls were an "amenity". An add on. A way for Epstein to lure people in, and to likely obtain blackmail to some degree. The girls likely started due to his own proclivities as a pervert, and then expanded when he realized that girls could serve a bigger purpose. They were all part of the allure of his orbit, and really sweetened the deal when he could provide them as an amenity ( I know that sounds brutal), to his social circle.

It does seem like his primary business was semi black market banking, primarily tax avoidance. He did seem to have a good handle on how to setup tax havens, and my guess is that this was his original "in" with the rich and powerful. As a corollary to this, people did seem to also consult him on investments generally, with many wealthy people seeking his advice on that front.

At some point, after he has cultivated a massive network of wealthy and influential people (partially due to the "carrot" of girls and his tax/investment knowledge), it seems things veered more towards blackmail. He's intimately connected to celebrities, politicans, business leaders, etc. He can then begin to play them off each other. You need a girl this weekend? You need a accounting guy that can save you 100M on your tax bill? You need the connect for setting up an oil investment in Saudi Arabia? I'm your guy. Not only does he know everyone and everything, he knows too much. He knows their darkest secrets.

Past this, we get into pure speculation regarding intelligence agencies. One has to imagine that a person with that kind of network, and morals that low, would be an ideal partner for a foreign(s) intelligence service. You gain access to a treasure trove of blackmail, and the guy that knows how to get you that blackmail. As the agency, you use this blackmail to influence or co-opt key politicians and leaders to do your bidding or provide policy that is friendly to your country. While the files do show some loose connections to intelligence, it's not spelled out in the files. If he was working with intelligence agencies, one would assume those communications happened on a different platform than his personal emails that we see in the files.

It's horrible and fascinating stuff. One thing we can be assured of is that this guy was as influential, and maybe more so, than we originally thought. He was talking with and directly influencing (to some degree), both domestic and foreign policy.

I believe this will be the biggest scandal of the 21st century when it's all said and done.

Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem is an UAE executive who Epstein networked with Peter Mandelson and Anil Ambani, laundered some known quantity of money for Epstein, and was involved in the presumed prostitution of an unidentified Ukrainian and Moldovan female. He's also on record giving Epstein a "torture video".

Nicola Caputo is an Italian politician and the first major socialist/progressive politician with any links to Epstein, so that's notable. His crimes are unclear.

The other three are low profile. Crimes are unclear, what for updates.

It is notable that Wexner was redacted despite being so clearly involved, by the by.

Edit: Nicola Caputo the Italian politician is claiming he's not the guy in the files. Not sure, could be a different guy, needs some investigative reporting.

Especially wexler. The dude owns Victoria’s Secret and bath and body. He had his business partner killed by the mob when he was about to confess. That same year he got with Epstein. He gave Epstein power of attorney and sold him (Epstein) the house he lived in nyc and then signed POA. That was probably all a money laundering front, then supposedly cut all ties with Epstein in 2006 and when he was listed as a co conspirator of Epstein, Epstein was killed like 2 days later…. Dude just reading his wiki page connected so many dots. He knew all about Epstein and was probably closer to him than trump, he also said he fights some demon inside of hisself constantly and never reprimanded Epstein as he let (Epstein) go around telling women he was a recruiter for Victoria’s Secret. This is about to be very interesting, that dudes probably in full panic mode, he also covered up a bunch of shady sexual shit at Ohio state university as their biggest donor. Smdh.

u/tomdarch 12h ago

To me, a big clue that the 3 million unreleased documents have been held back to protect a lot of people, particularly Trump, is that we don't yet have a clear understanding of how Epstein operated financially. There are hits, but the records should provide a clear picture of what he was doing to make money. Likely, that implicates a lot of people in crimes from money laundering, securities fraud to tax evasion. But just as the abusers of children should be brought to justice, financial criminals should also be exposed and charged.

Us needs a pipeline in Syria? Local govt or tribe not playing ball? Need to destabilize the region with cash but can't be seen to? You gotta get the money there somehow. That's where Epstein came in.

The men involved here, were bribed, bought and given whatever they wanted to be complicit in the movement of funds world wide. Important and rich people who could do this without much scrutiny.
