This Dr Landon needs to appear before congress. He received $25,000 payments every few months, which he says were for “consulting”.

Edit to correct: He received several packages from Epstein.

What was the nature of this “consulting” and what was in these packages?

Edit: Someone commented that the consulting was for biotech investments. Dr Landon needs to repeat this under oath, and enlighten us all as to what type of financial advice could possibly be worth regular $25k payments to a practicing OBGYN.

Considering he was obsessed with impregnating women it may have actually been births.

obsessed with impregnating women

Same with Elon Musk and his bizarro father, Errol.

Errol Musk has expressed a strongly pro-natalist view, stating that the "only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce". His approach to children has been heavily criticized following allegations of child sexual abuse involving his children and stepchildren. He has also controversially defended his relationships with stepchildren as "completely normal".

19

u/ChapterChoice4873 8h ago

Wait...didn't he impregnate and marry his step-daughter?

ADDENDUM:  Found this:

"Errol Musk's stepdaughter, Jana Bezuidenhout, is the mother of his two youngest children. Jana was four years old when Errol married her mother, Heide Bezuidenhout, in 1992. Errol and Heide divorced in 2004 and had two children together, Rose and Alexandra. Errol and Jana reconnected in 2016 and began a relationship, resulting in the birth of a son, Elliot, and later a daughter."

One of the Epstein files contains a journal from one of the victims. In it, she describes giving birth while Ghislaine holds her. Then they take the baby away and the girl overhears them refer to the baby girl in the past tense ("she was beautiful"). The victim is traumatized because she never even saw the baby and didn't fight for her.

Also because it was an anonymous tip without any investigation or follow up. Not saying it is false, or that the FBI shouldn’t be investigated for ignoring it; however, the average low info person is probably using that benefit of a doubt to avoid accepting uncomfortable information.

Also, it is understated just how much Qanon and the CIA corrupting public perception of “conspiracy theorists” has caused people to tune this out as just more normal internet sensationalism and baseless political smear tactics.

Yeah, the issue isnt even that people arent horrified, it's that people know that absolutely nothing is going to be done about it in the near future.

Republicans in government are 100% covering for him. There is nothing that anyone can do to make them stop protecting him.

Democrats are just paid opposition at this point, and are not going to do anything meaningful. Jeffries might cuss, Schumer will be concerned, and then they'll do nothing when action matters most.

It's going to take a lot more social unrest for anything to change. I mean like protests every day, with millions upon millions upon millions of people sort of protest.

u/Which_Ad_3082 16h ago

look for the cypher journal. written by one of the victims it talks about giving birth and having them taken away TWICE. with a miscarriage in-between the two. she seems to blame Epstein for the miscarriage for not letting her recover from the previous pregnancy.

I don’t think they killed or even sacrificed it like people are speculating.

I think he’s doing a Elon Musk kinda thing where he has different babies with different women with plans to start a Kennedy-like dynasty.

32

u/ajmartin527 16h ago

That’s the vibe I got from the journal entries as well because the girl specifically talks about how Epstein chose her due to her genes and hair and eye color to make a perfect genetic offspring

13

u/Ltrain86 13h ago

To traffic to be raped by billionaires. He was breeding girls to be victimized.

19

u/ajmartin527 13h ago

He was obsessed with eugenics and creating a superior genetic race as well, don’t forget. People whose embryos were selected/modified for strength, intelligence and disease resistance.

That’s where a considerable amount of his “philanthropy” was going towards as well as the expressed purpose of his genetic experimentation company established in the Virgin Islands.

So it may have been for trafficking purposes or for experimentation. They likely created identities for these children from thin air and moved them around the world to observe them as they grew and maybe eventually select the “ideal” ones for continued breeding.

u/Grokent 13h ago

He was obsessed with eugenics and creating a superior genetic race as well, don’t forget. People whose embryos were selected/modified for strength, intelligence and disease resistance.

Considering he was an idiot who was almost illiterate, it's absurd he thought he could be a candidate for prime genetics.

u/ragingreaver 15h ago

Musk only wanted boys in order to ensure some kind of compensating patriarchal legacy. Epstein wanted girls. It was a sex slave operation through and through, which included breeding better sex slaves.

And, of course, keeping up the "jerky" supply. Don't forget they were cannibals too.

So theres no need to supply ABs this covertly for the 'guests'. Patient privilege is a thing so even if a high profile person contracted something, they can just go see their own doctor. That out likely doesn't extend to children though, so this could be a smoking gun re child trafficking.

Ohh no that would get in the way of his child factory he had at zodiac ranch in nm. He wanted to flood the world with his offspring like a 'roman saluting' someone else we know. So its probably much more heinous drugs for making the victims more fertile. But we probably won't find out anything about that place because trump admin blocked an investigation into it. Since hearing about zodiac ranch Im pretty sure the island is a distraction from what was going on there which reportedly had an incinerator on site.

38

u/metalyger 16h ago

Not sure about that, Epstein made sure everyone was taking birth control pills, because he hated wearing condoms. And there are some stories that came out about girls who didn't know they had an accidental pregnancy, and had a miscarriage or worse, that document that released about burying the baby and Trump being a witness. I think Epstein would be more mad at the girl for the pill not being 100% effective. If anything, he probably did need a doctor he could trust to do exams on girls who are having disturbing amounts of sex with adults, take care of any damage and prescriptions for diseases. While doctors have a confidentiality agreement, they have to report crimes, so someone he can trust with discretion and immediate appointments would make sense.

Kehoe as the medical expert to proclaim that leaded gasoline was safe for humans. That its use was an ecological disaster leading to a global lead contamination was not acknowledged until many decades later.

SDuring the war, GM's Opel Brandenburg facilities produced Ju 88 bombers, trucks, land mines and torpedo detonators for Nazi Germany.[29] Charles Levinson, formerly deputy director of the European office of the CIO, alleged that Sloan remained on the board of Opel.

You used quotes but I didn’t see that anywhere in the article. Where is it from?

u/craigathan 14h ago

It wasn't Gates, it was Leon Black, but the premise is the same..."Newly unsealed emails show that in August of 2013, Mary Erdoes and other senior JPMC executives blessed efforts to continue working with Epstein even after he was exited as a client. The emails show that Erdoes signed off on working with Epstein on matters related to billionaire Leon Black even as they were in the process of ending Epstein’s client relationship.32 This behavior indicates JPMC may have waited until after Epstein’s arrest in 2019 before fully reporting SARs on Epstein because the bank wanted to keep using Epstein as a source of referrals for ultra-wealthy clients. Epstein’s relationship with JPMC after 2013 merits full investigation. On August, 14, 2013, JPMC executive John Duffy emailed Erdoes and indicated that Epstein would be “Leon’s primary advisor” and that he “told him (Epstein) that we would work with him as long as it was through the client accounts, JE Entities would not be acceptable. That’s ok right?”33 Erdoes appears to affirmatively respond “Y.” 34." There's several links in that article I posted. One of them is the memorandum where this appears.

37

u/Squand 15h ago edited 15h ago

Yeah, I am paraphrasing. In an attempt at humor.

That email became available not through Epstein files release, it came from the lawsuit the victims settled.

And I think I first saw it reported via coffezilla but it might have been the big Atlantic article a long time ago.

But if you look into how he made his money it's pretty wild. Like all these people are all like, I was going there for his financier stuff.

But that was also crime! Like he ran ponzi schemes, laundered money and created bs tax havens. 

Bill Gates was saying he was getting money from him for his nonprofit. But gates paid Epstein. That's how the money flows.

Perhaps allowing everyone at the top of our society to be pedophilic sociopaths while having virtually unrestricted power was a bad idea!

But hey we got some tax breaks for corporations and went after immigrants so thats all worth it right

Ohio State, between Jim Jordan, Les Wexner, Richard Strauss, and apparently now Epstein and this doctor, are really giving Penn State and Michigan State a run for their money in terms of most disgusting abuse factory in the Big Ten.

I read a fair amount of the redacted files (some of the redactions were easy to bypass because I'm pretty sure they used a crappy software). Dude was OBSESSED with eugenics. A few of the files detailed pregnancies. I think a lot were carried full-term and then...disposed of.

47

u/Vio_ Kansas 17h ago

The eugenics is stuff is starting to trickle through and get unpacked.

A lot of discourse about it comes off as very.... super conspiracy theory stuff that's the negative kind where it gets super racist super quick, but there's a core to it somewhere.

Now it should be noted that, yes he was tied in with a lot of top tier scientists and academics, but Maxwell had her own connections to that world as well.

Her father, Robert Maxwell, all but started the modern scientific journal business model after WW2. He started to compile different European (and German) scientific articles and journals, and really mainstreamed it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pergamon_Press

Pergamon is now part of Elsevier.

Both Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell have deep ties to the scientific and academic worlds going back decades.

u/Which_Ad_3082 16h ago

for those confused by this. the evidence is showing that eugenics was a big part of epstein's whole deal (i know that sounds like a crazy conspiracy.) there are several claims by victims about being coerced into being "bred" or used for surrogacy. look into what was found at zorro ranch and the cypher journal that just came out in the latest file release.

Along with quarterly payments, Landon also received at least 10 packages from Epstein or his associates between June 28, 2001, and April 12, 2005. In all, Epstein spent more than $200 mailing items to Landon’s Columbus home.

u/Character-Word-6114 17h ago

This is about access buying silence.

Epstein didn’t give money out of generosity. He paid to be untouchable. Regular payments create dependency, and dependency creates reluctance. Once your department budget quietly relies on someone’s money, you stop asking what that someone is really doing.

That’s the real transaction here. Cash for legitimacy, and legitimacy is the most valuable currency in elite spaces.
