"The man who never dies"

What an intriguing thing to say..

Yes, picked up on that too. It really leapt out.

[Tintin]

Pam Bondi in the recent White House presser reiterated what she had previously said caught being secretly recorded back on April 28th in a DC restaurant by O'Keefe Media Group journalists. Quite what she means by "kids" may be moot: minors, maybe? Her claim in the presser was that it was all child-porn imagery, which had been downloaded. Right. Sharing here so we have a reminder of that report released by OMG on May 9th:



-----------

I still do think there is high value in revisiting the 2019 interview by Sarah Westall with former Palm Beach County detective John Mark Dougan: that guy has secreted some of the receipts

Just that one interview alone makes a mockery of every single statement emanating from inside the Beltway presently: in short, we know they are lying.

Extract: Dougan has encrypted his copy of the hard drive and stored it hundreds of miles from where he lives in Moscow. He’s also made ten copies and distributed them to his friends all over the world, as part of his deadman’s switch.

The evidence is out there, safe, somewhere, and it may yet see the light of day. How, and when, and by whom is anyone's guess.

• Bongino WALKS OUT Of FBI Over Epstein & Pam Bondi! Patel To Follow!:

Reports have emerged claiming that FBI assistant director Dan Bongino is threatening to resign from the Trump administration due to frustration with Attorney General Pam Bondi's alleged mishandling and lack of transparency regarding the Epstein files. Kash Patel is also reportedly considering stepping down if Bongino leaves, citing similar concerns.

Jimmy and Kurt Metzger discuss whether Bondi is protecting powerful interests by withholding key documents, while figures like Glenn Beck and Raheem Kassam have publicly urged Trump to remove her. Commentators accuse the administration of scapegoating Bondi while ignoring deeper institutional corruption connected to intelligence agencies and global elites.

This is not going away…

Exactly. Epstein didn’t have to be CIA or Mossad for him to acquire a “list” of blackmailed clients (see: Prince Andrew).

The fact is there are thousands of Epstein documents under court seal and there is a Non-Prosecution Agreement that reeks of privileged treatment.

Pay close attention to the language used around any DOJ/FBI release of information involving the Epstein case. Bondi still won’t say if Epstein worked for any intelligence agency; but he may have operated effectively as a NOC, without being on any payroll.

The Epstein “list” of his blackmail targets may have small fish, it may have a few big fish, but the bottom line is we don’t give a damn about protecting his targets or his sources and methods.

We want the truth about what the hell OUR government has been doing with this info; if there were girls allowed to be victimized; and JUSTICE for the victims.

This isn’t complicated: We want radical transparency; not unsigned, one-page, dismissive leaks to establishment mouthpieces.

We want the TRUTH, even if you think we can’t “handle it.”

Epstein may not have a list but the FBI & DOJ can create an “Epstein List” of people that victimized those kids from all the evidence they have provided it wasn’t destroyed. THAT’S the list people want exposed. People want Justice even if it takes down 90% of Washington. Maybe then we’ll get an America First government.

I'm not interested in trading prosperity for allowing p*dos to abuse children.

If the options are let it burn, or look the other way after children have been abused in horrible ways, I'm letting it burn.

Protecting children is not negotiable.

If Trump thinks this is the same thing as other intelligence secrets he's going to find out that he's wrong.

This country rebelled against England over a tax on tea.
Don't tell me accountability for crimes against children isn't as important as the economy.
That's how you start a revolution.

Perhaps this Epstein sex scandal, and Trump's latest notorious response to it, is all a distracting war of flash grenades.

For a far more sensible, reality connected, explanation for what's going on with Trump, Epstein, and the British financial empire:

EPSTEIN PSYOP BACKFIRES: How Britain’s Sex-Scandal Ruse Aims to CRUSH TRUMP & MAGA

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=LRXp_jR2098

To quote the Youtube synopsis:

Barbara Boyd delves deep beyond the common narrative surrounding Jeffrey Epstein. Contrary to popular belief, Epstein was not merely a blackmailer of elites but was deeply embedded in the British financial empire's intelligence operations. Boyd unravels Epstein's connections with influential figures and institutions, his role in money laundering, and his involvement in the 2008 financial collapse. She also explores how these revelations tie into the ongoing political battles involving Donald Trump and the geopolitical maneuvers of the British Empire. The video further highlights the broader context of economic destruction and Trump's efforts to rebuild a sovereign and prosperous U.S. economy. Join us as we examine Epstein's true legacy and its implications for America's future.

• Right-Wing Influencers DELIGHTED Epstein Files Staying Hidden!:

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=cU0Zn3jNZ_Y

Influential right-wing figures like Bill O’Reilly and Scott Adams are defending Trump’s decision to keep the Epstein files sealed, claiming it’s better to protect reputations than expose crimes.

Jimmy and Kurt Metzger highlight the absurdity of trusting politicians or the CIA to lie to us “for our own good,” especially when such lies have shielded pedophiles and enabled COVID-era misinformation. Jimmy argues that this mindset stems from trauma and blind loyalty, even among intelligent people, and mocks the justification that secrecy equals safety.

I don't think the previous video post reflects on how most of Trump's supporters feel right now.

I’m sure it’s a relief for Pam Bondi to hear the president is still in her corner. Unfortunately, huge swaths of the party are not. She repeatedly misled on Epstein. Then didn’t have the courage to explain herself. Suddenly, she’s camera shy & no Qs allowed. Good luck!

Matt Walsh
@MattWalshBlog
The Attorney General said she had the client list on her desk. The White House made a big show of giving binders marked “Epstein Files: Phase 1” to a bunch of influencers. Now they tell us that there is no list and we should stop talking about it. Well then why did you say there was a list? Why did you pull that stunt with the influencers? Why did you call it Phase 1 (obviously implying that there were more phases to come)?

If you claim that all of this seems normal, above board, and honest, you’re being extremely obtuse. We’re Americans. We don’t accept obvious bull**** from our political leaders. And we don’t move on from a topic just because we’ve been instructed to do so.

This has sadly and unnecessarily gone from a debacle to a disaster to a crisis now to a scandal.

Heads need to roll over this and to the extent any files exist, they must be released. (I again underscore that this issue was never a priority to me at all.)

But given the expectations created related to the files/tapes etc, I don’t see any way around it.

What an infuriating waste of political capital when so many other productive things are happening and need to happen.

MAGA has a right to be outraged over the handling of this issue.

I think this is the biggest mistake he has made to date, in either of his two terms.

This effectively throws two of the biggest patriots, Bongino and Patel, under the bus.

Hopefully, it’s just further feeling the waters.

Otherwise, he’s simply not reading the room.

Anyone who's actually been paying attention knows the truth the Epstein files were either buried, hidden, or straight up destroyed. This isn't new behavior it's Deep State standard procedure. Why Pamela got on TV and ran her mouth about having the files is beyond me. That was on her. Either she was lying or completely incompetent take your pick. Let’s be honest about who’s behind this. These files didn’t just vanish on their own. They were covered up by the usual suspects Obama appointed judge, James Comey’s daughter running interference in court, and Bill Barr, a Bush era yes man who was never MAGA. In fact, Barr worked against Trump at every turn while pretending to serve justice. He was there to protect the system, not to expose it. This isn’t some isolated event either. The cover-up playbook is always the same hide the evidence, control the narrative, and gaslight the public. They did it with JFK. They did it with MLK. They did it with the first assassination attempt on Trump, sweeping it under the rug like it never happened. Now they’re doing the same thing with Epstein’s client list. They’ll protect their own to the bitter end. That’s the real reason we’ll never get the names. Not because they can’t release them but because they won’t. The people involved are too powerful, too connected, and too protected.

McMadnessnews about sums it up Vicus. This may have been covered already, but interesting to note his account was active after his death.

Jeffrey Epstein’s mystery bank came alive after his death, receiving millions of dollars from his estate.



"In the years after Jeffrey Epstein registered as a sex offender, he closed his money management firm and started a business to develop algorithms and mine DNA and financial databases.

Then he set up a bank.

In a banking license application reviewed by The New York Times, Epstein described himself as one of the investing world’s “pioneers” and said he wanted to pursue the “dynamic discipline of international banking.”

Officials in the Virgin Islands, the U.S. territory where Epstein set up most of his businesses, approved a license for him in 2014 to run one of the territory’s first international banking entities, a specialized bank that can do business only with offshore clients. The approval was unusual, given Epstein’s status as a convicted sex offender.

The bank, called Southern Country International, renewed its license for each of the next five years, but it is unclear whether it conducted any business or had any customers. Epstein, who died while in federal custody last summer following his arrest on sex trafficking charges, does not appear to have done any marketing for the bank or hired much staff.

The bank was created under a territorial law that lacked many of the oversight requirements banks are usually subject to, and its regulatory file is largely empty. A lawyer for Epstein told officials in the Virgin Islands in 2018 that Southern Country had not commenced operations. And regulators in the territory said they did not exercise oversight of the bank because it did not appear to be doing any business.

And yet, after Epstein’s death, his estate transferred more than $12 million to Southern Country, according to court documents.

On Tuesday, at a court hearing in the Virgin Islands on motions involving Epstein’s estate, a magistrate judge, Carolyn Hermon-Purcell, questioned the estate’s lawyers about the transfers to Southern Country, saying the disclosure was not satisfactory. The judge said she did not know why Southern Country would be receiving checks from the estate. “There’s no explanation for it,” she said.

A lawyer for the estate responded that some of the payment was made in error, but the judge was not satisfied with his response and asked him to follow up with a fuller accounting.

The checks — listed in the estate’s transactions for routine payments such as cable-TV bills and phone service for Epstein’s many properties — stand out. The list of payments was filed with Hermon-Purcell, who is overseeing his $635 million estate, including the possible establishment of a compensation fund for his victims.

That Epstein was able to get a banking license in the first place is unusual..."

Mike Benz: “Jeffrey Epstein Was Working With the CIA Since 1981”

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=vD3XZOPCqH0

Transcript:

Mike Benz: Epstein was working with the CIA in the early 1980s at the very start of his career after he left Bear Stearns. In 1981, right after leaving Bear Stearns, Jeffrey Epstein created a one-person for-profit company in his one-bedroom New York apartment. It was called the Intercontinental Assets Group, and it held itself out as an international bounty hunter for high-net-worth individuals to both recover money and shield money internationally. Right away in 1981, he starts this company that basically helped royalty and high-net-worth individuals basically recover loan debts or assets owed to them that were held in cryptic offshore bank accounts, as well as helping them structure their own assets in a way that would make it difficult or impossible for others to collect those assets.

And in 1982, just one year into that, he got a fake passport, an Austrian passport, listing his residence as Saudi Arabia. This is a fake passport. This was recovered by the FBI in 2019 when they drilled a hole in Jeffrey Epstein’s safe and recovered this. Prosecutors held this passport up at the Ghislaine Maxwell trial. Now, this fake passport was so good that it was able to go through four different country checkpoints. It had a false name, but Jeffrey Epstein’s photo, so that he could get back and forth. And why Saudi Arabia? Well, because Jeffrey Epstein, one of his main clients for the group that he set up in 1981, was Adnan Khashoggi.

Adnan Khashoggi was the CIA arms runner for the Iran-Contra affair when Congress blocked the U.S. federal government through a congressional law called the Bolan Amendment, with the Democrats controlling the House of Representatives, banning any U.S. funds from being directed to the overthrow of the Nicaraguan Sandinista government. And the Reagan White House and National Security Council and Central Intelligence Agency wanted to do it anyway. They were left with a problem, which was that the CIA had been neutered during the Jimmy Carter years. There had been prohibitions on the categories of covert activity it could do, and the Bolan Amendment from Congress blocked them from using U.S. aid funds or State Department funds to run the operation.

Enter Jeffrey Epstein and Adnan Khashoggi, his client. During the Iran-Contra affair, which dogged the entire Reagan administration when all this came out, the U.S. was selling arms together with Israel to Iran, which is kind of ironic as the current geopolitics of Israel-Iran play out around missiles flying overhead earlier this month between those two countries. Israel and the U.S. were selling weapons to Iran at that time through Adnan Khashoggi, the Saudi arms dealer who had been working with the CIA for 30 years.

In fact, this all came out in formal, under-oath testimony from the Paris office of BCCI, which was the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, one of the largest banks in the world, which was effectively a CIA proprietary bank for running arms to the Mujaheddin when the CIA was creating the Islamo-terrorist network that would later become Al Qaeda and then ISIS. Adnan Khashoggi was a client of that bank, together with the CIA, and the head of the head of the Paris branch said that Adnan Khashoggi personally told him that he was working for the Central Intelligence Agency and Jeffrey Epstein was his money bundler. This is at the height of the Cold War, mind you.

And so you see this relationship going back to the early 1980s. In 1985, Jeffrey Epstein becomes linked up with Les Wexner in Columbus, Ohio. Les Wexner was the head of what at the time was the largest retailer in the entire United States, limited brands, famous for Victoria’s Secret and many, many others. Les Wexner’s tax attorney, Arthur Shapiro, was murdered in a gangland style assassination in 1985, the day before he was set to testify in an IRS grand jury investigation. The IRS had been looking into the Wexner empire’s finances and failure to, I think, file taxes for something like five years and seven years of investigation. Arthur Shapiro, who ran that, was supposed to testify to the IRS grand jury just one day before he was gunned down.

It was right after that that Jeffrey Epstein appears to meet Les Wexner and then go on to have durable power of attorney over the entire Wexner enterprise. In 1993, Jeffrey Epstein personally negotiated the sale, the transfer of Air America, which would then become Southern Air Transport, a CIA proprietary airline straight from Miami, where it got busted as part of the Iran-Contra gun trafficking and narcotics trafficking in order to run this illicit operation in Iran-Contra. That very airline used Jeffrey and that Jeffrey Epstein was a critical part in the structuring of this CIA operation. He then negotiated the transfer of that CIA airliner straight to Columbus, Ohio, where the Wexner empire was based for the primary purpose of transporting the limited cargo between Ohio and Hong Kong, which is another one of these narco states. Hong Kong was won by the British during the opium wars and has been kind of a lawless gun and drug running zone ever since.

How does one get to be the financial bundler for the CIA’s main arms, illicit arms trafficker in the Middle East without having any scrutiny from the Central Intelligence Agency? How does one personally negotiate the transfer of a CIA proprietary airline? By the way, Southern Air Transport declared bankruptcy in Columbus, Ohio, the very day the CIA put out an acknowledgement of Air America’s role in the gun running and narco trafficking in Iran-Contra. Subsequent to that, the US State Department personally made Jeffrey Epstein the tenant on the lease for one of the second largest residents in all of New York City. This residence was seized from the government of Iran as the US was putting sanctions on it and then personally leased out to Jeffrey Epstein. How do you have the State Department as your personal landlord? Do you think you or I, Jesse, could score something like that?

The State Department then ended up in a legal dispute with Jeffrey Epstein because Jeffrey Epstein subleased that apartment to the defense lawyer for the “French Connection” and “Pizza Connection” drug scandals (Ivan Fisher), where you had CIA involvement in narco trafficking that was effectively dealt, you know, hushed over in this trial through this very defense lawyer that Jeffrey Epstein then leased the State Department building seized from Iran from. What I’m trying to communicate here is that every aspect of the Jeffrey Epstein story is part of the restructuring of intelligence work after the scandals of the 1970s when the CIA was barred from doing activity directly. And that’s when USAID came into the picture and took the baton from CIA and these and the NGO apparatus that we’re now living under with the National Endowment for Democracy and Internews and the US Agency for US Institute of Peace and the web of private contractors and private financiers in order to be the front men for CIA operations. Jeffrey Epstein was present at creation of that entire apparatus. There is zero chance on God’s green earth that there are no CIA files on this guy.

And the fact that this justice department has effectively pointed us to the FBI when this is a CIA job is not a good look for transparency.

Gen. Mike Flynn Urges Trump to Confront Epstein Cover-Up — Warns Nation Cannot Heal Until Elites Are Held Accountable for Child Abuse

Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, President Trump’s former National Security Advisor and a relentless advocate for truth and justice, has issued a fiery warning to the Trump administration and the American people: the Epstein scandal isn’t going away — and it must be addressed head-on.

In a powerful post directed to President Trump on X, Gen. Flynn wrote:

“@realDonaldTrump please understand the EPSTEIN AFFAIR is not going away. If the administration doesn’t address the massive number of unanswered questions about Epstein, especially the ABUSE OF CHILDREN BY ELITES (it is very clear that abuse occurred), then moving forward on so many other monumental challenges our nation is facing becomes much harder.”

Flynn’s post is a direct challenge to not only Biden and Obama — whom he accuses of betraying the public’s trust — but also a clarion call to President Trump to lead with moral clarity and unshakable resolve.

“TRUST was deeply violated by both @JoeBiden and @BarackObama. Your administration MUST be above reproach.”

Flynn invoked the biblical warning against those who harm children:

“Anyone who causes these little ones to stumble, it would be better to have a millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.”

Flynn continued, “We cannot allow pedophiles to get away. I don’t personally care who they are or what elite or powerful position they hold. They must be exposed and held accountable!!!”

Flynn’s comment comes after conservative commentator Glenn Beck has submitted a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request seeking all text messages and emails sent by FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino to Attorney General Pam Bondi concerning Jeffrey Epstein.
