what is really going on at a macro level and for years.

Wajahat Ali, as many of you know, writes for the NYT and was on CNN.

These videos have blown my mind. I just tuned in in the past couple days.

I'd love to discuss if you watch.

5. Wow! Ari Ben-Menashe goes to October Surprise of 1980.

Great to know he showed how Epstein and Ghislaine have a long past in intelligence crime. Hearing Robert Maxwell’s ill-gotten loot may have seeded Epstein’s fund explains a lot.

Thank you for the heads-up!

6. Holy Moly

Been reading DU forever but I rarely comment. These videos are mandatory viewing! I am so incredibly grateful they were posted!

7. Seriously?!

Awesome! I posted them a few times here hoping to get some traction.

Glad they are having some impact. It makes so much sense to me. Who other than CIA(essentially) has the means and power to hold over people's heads and to off non-cooperators.

Along with foreign intelligence...

So many dots, so little time. And the dots explain a lot.

9. Way recommended!

This is an extremely important post. Thank you for providing it here to the DU community. I was taking a brief break from lawn & garden work, when I first saw this. I had planned to watch the videos tonight, but then -- due entirely to my respect for you -- I thought, "I'll just watch a minute...." Yeah, right! (grin)

Two things immediately stuck out. First, since Epstein was first arrested in Florida, I have posted about his connections in the Iran-Contra scandal. Second, because "finances" are an area where I seek insight from those much smarter in that realm than me, the comment on how at this level, it is how places like Bear Stearns shits the bed, and the opulently wealthy remain opulently wealthy while millions of people lose their investments and savings.

Indeed, after Bill Barr's father became convinced that Epstein had no morals, he handed him over to another handler. Because Jeffery Epstein has skills in math and accounting, he was trained at Bear Stearns in magic tricks -- how to make money disappear. From there, Epstein went on to bigger and badder things, including those connected to the Maxwell family and fortune.

I will have more to say soon.

10. You get it, H2O Man!

It literally goes all the way back to Iran-Contra, fall of the USSR, Israeli political shenanigans...

It's the same players and forces at work. CIA overthrowing democracies in Latin America; KGB/FSB dismantling and stealing their country's wealth for the oligarchs.

It's a huge landscape, but actually not all that complicated... in other words, makes perfect sense when you zoom out.

Very gratifying to have an enormous talent and presence as H2O Man confirming!

PS Unfortunately, it appears there were compromised high level Democrats. I think this could be behind the apparent reticence of Dem administrations from releasing the info. As many of us have expressed - anyone who participated regardless of political party needs to be held accountable!

11. One of the things

to keep in mind is that those elected representatives who take their orders from the opulently wealthy will hesitate to even give lip service to the Epstein-Maxwell scandal. At very most, they may express concern, which is the only thing as utterly worthless as their thoughts and prayers.
