LIVE — Tuesday, February 24, 2026 · 12:00 PM ET
A briefing on why despite the actions of the American Department of Justice, the British and other Europeans have been the first to face police, prosecutors, and the public in the aftermath of the Epstein files — including former U.K. Business Secretary and Ambassador Peter Mandelson and the former Prince Andrew, now legally known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
In this solo briefing, intelligence analyst Eric Garland walks through the structural and political reasons that explain the asymmetry: how British and continental European prosecutorial systems differ from the U.S. system, why political shielding works differently across the Atlantic, what the U.K. press environment has done that the U.S. press environment hasn’t, and what to expect next as the file releases continue.
This is not a partisan video. It’s a structural read of why the same source material is producing very different legal outcomes in different jurisdictions.

WHAT WE’LL COVER
– Why Mandelson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor face proceedings now
– Structural differences between U.S. and U.K./European prosecutorial systems
– Why the British press has moved faster than the American press
– What the political shielding of high-status figures looks like in each system
– What the next round of Epstein-file releases is likely to produce
– How to read this story as an intelligence professional, not a partisan

Guys, it’s time for some game theory. [music] Good evening, lovely people. It’s Eric Garland here on a secluded mountainside in the Republic of Vermont coming at you uh going fullon conspiracy analyst. I’m not a conspiracy theorist. I’m a professional. This is my job, people. Uh, it’s good to see everyone here and I am really looking forward to um answering questions and comments and all that, but I have a lot of material. I have a lot of material tonight because we have people getting arrested, folks. We got uh members of the royal family. They may be stripped of their title, but they were still members of the royal family that have gone into custody and been released. We have those who have been elevated to the parage, lords, ladies, if you will, who have been arrested.

Um, so we’re going to be talking about uh what everyone’s talking about, like why why are we seeing people quitting and people being arrested in Britain? , 13 secondsUm, people are quitting in Norway. , 15 secondsThey’re being raided in France, but they’re actually being arrested in the United Kingdom, but not in the United , 22 secondsStates yet. It’s early days. Of course, this is all in reaction to an American , 32 secondsum law enforcement effort. this the Epstein files, which let me tell you with with all the counter intelligence , 39 secondsimplications uh of the fact that these guys are all spies and they have been trafficking human , 46 secondsbeings all around the world in different countries where it’s illegal in almost all of them.

, 53 secondsUm [clears throat] most of the governments uh that are friendly to us have their own set of files that they could release but don’t. , 5 secondsBut the United States under the uh administration of one Donald J. Trump , 13 secondsand under his attorney general Pam Bandi who would not have been my first choice for the job but here we are. uh they , 20 secondshave released progressively more important uh sets of data and this last , 27 secondsone the third dump was a doozy. Now now we are cooking with gas, right? We’re doing some we’re doing the real stuff , 35 secondsnow and now the world is is shaking. Now everybody’s changing. But the the arrests have started in in the United Kingdom.

, 47 secondsAnd I’m going to take some of your questions. Um, probably after we get rolling here, I got some stuff for you , 53 secondstonight. Um, deep from my files. This is going to be a fun one. Um, because I’m going fullon conspiracy analyst here. , 3 secondsNot conspiracy theorist. That’s an epithet. Though I do get with the general concept. I don’t I don’t I don’t uh I don’t take it personal or nothing. , 11 secondsUm, but we got to go back 200 years because this is about essentially what’s going , 19 secondson right now is the United States is repelling foreign influence for the , 26 secondsfirst time at this level of intensity in 200 years. And we have had 200 years of , 33 secondsforeign influence uh malign foreign influence.

quite a bit of it from our old nemesis of the special relationship, , 41 secondsthe United Kingdom. Um, I think that’s documented and I think we’re going to talk about it more. And this this line , 49 secondsof thinking has an old history to it, but we’re going to be dealing with some old and famous European families. And , 56 secondswe’re going to need information that goes back couple hundred years as I will as I will demonstrate tonight. So, we’re , 4 secondsgoing to get started. But I want to talk about a book. I I haven’t got a little graphic for this because I I don’t um know as there’s ever been a an , 12 secondsattractive cover for this book at uh at Borders of Barnes & Noble. It’s called Foreign Conspiracies Against the Liberty , 20 secondsof the United States and it’s by Samuel Morse in 1835.

I’ve been doing research , 28 secondson a book. The working title is learn to love conspiracy theories and it’s about the role of the conspiracy theory in the , 36 secondsAmerican discourse and why it’s sort of essential to our understanding of the world and how it , 44 secondswasn’t until after John F. Kennedy got shot in sort of in an unusual way that sort of beggared belief as to it was one , 51 secondsguy at a distance and you know he just was an extremely good shot. Um, it wasn’t until people started, you know, , 59 secondsspeculating publicly that maybe the official story was wrong that this term conspiracy theory , 8 secondsuh, came out. And it’s it’s not clear if the CIA um originally spread this term , 15 secondsor how if it was an organic um marketing effort for this term conspiracy theory or consp conspiracy , 24 secondstheorist to describe an individual who did not believe that John F.

Kennedy was shot in , 32 secondsthe manner as described and was going to find to do their own research, if you will, and had another , 40 secondstheory about why JFK might have been shot. It might have involved the Chicago outfit mafia. It might have involved the , 47 secondsCubans or the USSR. Um, but people started having uh questions about whether that was the real issue. That if , 57 secondsthat’s really if it’s just John or um Lee Harvey Oswald got upset with JFK and shot him by himself with no other help , 5 secondsand no other motives. There were people that didn’t believe that. But there is a much grander tradition , 13 secondsof conspiracy analysis and it goes back to this uh this book foreign conspiracies against the liberty of the , 19 secondsUnited States Samuel Morse 1835 and this is a it was a very popular book , 27 secondsin its day a diet tribe if you will and it’s about the European conspiracy against American liberty and this book , 35 secondscovered in successive chapters the political character of the Austrian government, popery, my one of my favorite words, popery, popery and , 44 secondsprotestantism, the evil from immigration, um particularly from uh Catholic countries, , 52 secondsuh the Jesuits and uh the obligations of American citizens.

, 59 secondsSo this book was not the first uh it was not the genesis of the concern about , 7 secondsforeigners. That goes back to the very first days of the United States. In fact, the people who were most concerned , 16 secondsabout hostile foreign influence, malign influence and intelligence operations, those guys were George , 23 secondsWashington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, Ben Franklin. , 32 secondsThis is a country of spies. This country was born of intelligence and counter , 39 secondsinelligence experts. And I’m here to say it proudly because they had other things going for them. But probably the the , 48 secondsvalues that defined our first presidents most and best was they were good at counter intelligence.

They knew the , 56 secondspowers of Europe were going to eat us up. With French help, the colonist of the United States of America, of which I , 5 secondsam a direct descendant, uh, a man uh, who bears my last name, John Garland, fought under Nathaniel Green in the , 14 secondsMassachusetts regiment against the Red Coats. And, uh, so this is uh, I’m back in New England here now. This is very , 21 secondsnear and dear to our hearts, many of us here. But we barely won and only then because of the French Empire that wanted , 30 secondsto get back at their British rivals after their loss of the Plains of Abraham up in Quebec, right? , 38 secondsUm they helped us out and without their guns and ships, we never would have won.

, 46 secondsIt wouldn’t have been close. So, we start this country uh upon the British deciding to give up , 54 secondsand go do other things. Um because let’s face it, the British probably could have won, but they decided no, let’s just let , 2 secondsthis go and and uh we’ve we’ve got other interests elsewhere. Um after that though Washington, Adams, Jefferson, all , 11 secondsthese guys knew that the Spanish uh eventually the Austrohungarians, the , 17 secondsuh you know various kingdoms, the French, certainly the British eventually that they would all be back. They would , 24 secondsbe back with their spies. They would be infiltrating our newspapers. Uh they had they I think it was Adams who had passed , 32 secondsthe uh Alien Enemies Act.

They’re like, “We could have dudes run up in here, dressed like us, or they could be some , 39 secondsof those loyalists who went to Nova Scotia. They could come back, arm themselves up, and they could attack us from within.” That’s why they they , 48 secondspassed the Alien Enemies Act, which Trump invoked against the Venezuelans recently. But that goes back to a period of time when they were concerned that , 56 secondsthe United States wasn’t just going to be invaded by a foreign power and its army. Of course, navies were very expensive and there was only so many , 4 secondspowers that had them enough to get over to the United States, which is clear on the other side of the Atlantic. But they , 12 secondsthought we were small and and weak enough.

we’d absolutely be infiltrated by paramilitaries, , 19 secondsmuch less the more regular uh problem of having influence agents , 26 secondstrying to affect our politics and wealthy Europeans who might be bribing Americans. So this is why Alexander , 35 secondsHamilton and the Federalist Papers is talking about imalments and why they outlawed imalments because they were , 42 secondsterrified that these eur these European states and their trackcts of land they could start giving annual rents out to , 51 secondsAmerican bureaucrats to cease serving their neighbors and to be serving some , 58 secondsEuropean power. So by the time this book from Sammy Morse comes out looking at , 5 secondsAustrians, uh, Catholics, popes, um, and European financial concerns, 1835, , 14 secondsum, America has this rich tradition of being very concerned that it could be unduly influenced by European powers.

, 23 secondsAnd I think we are about to learn um that there was a lot of undue influence on the United States for all , 32 secondsall the 250 years that we’ve been around. , 36 secondsBut of recent we have been dealing with this guy Jeffrey Epstein. , 40 secondsAnd we know a few things that that I want to talk about right off the bat. So this guy was couched in he’s a New , 47 secondsYorker, New York native. He’s from Coney Island. He ends up being one of the most powerful people in the United States. In , 55 secondssome cases, more powerful than a president. , 58 secondsUm, he has spies like a woman named Kathleen Rumler who was working for the Obama administration , 7 secondsvetting all the c the cabinet secretaries and reporting back to Epstein all the time.

So, that’s how powerful Epstein was. In addition to the , 16 secondsfact that he was able to commit heinous crimes against children and then get off with halftime , 22 secondsprison camp at his house where he still was engaged in intelligence operations. , 30 secondsThat is very very powerful. We know a few other things about him and this is going to be the frame just for this , 37 secondsepisode. We know because we just heard it from Les Wexner’s uh deposition. He worked for the Rothschild family and , 46 secondsWexner Wexner put a fine point on it. I think uh he said that he knew Ellie de , 52 secondsRothschild in France and he said Epstein worked for all of them because the whole thing with the EP with the Rothschild , 59 secondsfamily is you’ve got the the London Rothschilds, the Paris Rothschilds, other Rothschilds in other parts of the , 6 secondsworld, right?

That’s their whole that’s been their thing for 200 plus years is that they are in multiple places at once , 14 secondsand they’re extremely powerful. We’re going to talk about that a little bit. , 18 secondsWell, that is apparently who Epstein represented among others, but he represents the Roth the Rothschilds. , 27 secondsHe’s tied in very closely with Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, the former prince , 34 secondsAndrew. And now that the Epstein files are out, we’ve got these resignations and now , 41 secondsarrests. We have Lord Peter Mandelson um who is a new labor political , 50 secondsoperative and um highranking official in British government elevated to the parish , 58 secondsum who was in close contact with with Epstein and others and you have Prince , 7 secondsAndrew and they’ve both been arrested now.

So the question is why are they first and the answer the short answer is , 17 secondsRussians and the Roths the Rothschilds are a very key part of the Russians , 26 secondsgetting into the city of London for the last 25 plus years. So, this story , 33 secondsis going to go back um this story is going to go back to the fall of the , 41 secondsSoviet Union where I think it must it needs to go back before then, but we’re going to start in the 1990s sort of the , 48 secondsmodern era where the United States won the Cold War and then we’re going to go from there. I’m not not going to take a ton of questions, but Dery 13 here says , 58 secondsthe pentavinet. And I’m going to stop for this one comment because for those of you who remember my my uh game theory thread of 2016, , 7 secondsI did it completely spontaneous.

No plan at all. Like tonight, I have a plan. I have notes. I have a whole thing. Right , 15 secondswhen I when I did the game theory thread December 11th, 2016, no plan at all. And I got about halfway through it explaining Russian trade craft and the , 24 secondsIraq war and 911 and all this stuff. And by the time I got halfway through, I realized that this is a good time um I’m , 32 secondsI’m talking about uh Assange and uh Hallebertton or Dick Cheney or whoever and I stop and I go the Kitty’s , 41 secondsthe Rothschilds and Colonel Sanders before he went tits up the penta. And then I I stopped and I said, “If you got , 48 secondsmy Oh, I married an axe murder reference. God bless you.” Um, so yes, oddly enough, we are , 56 secondswe [laughter] have now returned to [snorts] the crazy Scottish father , 3 secondsand his Lynden HR rubbish that he was listening to.

Dad, you refer to the news , 10 secondsof the world as the news. Um, so God bless you for remembering it. , 17 secondsYeah, we’re actually at the point where you know it’s it’s a commonly known fact that the world is is controlled by the , 25 secondsPentavinet, the the Queen, the Pope, the Gettys, the Rosschilds, and Colonel Sanders. And if you haven’t seen The Penta on Netflix, I highly recommend it. , 35 secondsIt is really worth the trouble and it has so many Easter eggs and basis of , 42 secondsreality about um about many of the conspiracies that are out there. And of course the the primary conceit of the , 49 secondsshow The Penta is that there is a secret society um but they’re nice and they’re trying to fight the other secret , 57 secondssocieties which who knows maybe there is such a thing.

So, we need to go back to the the Dewey slopes of 1991. I don’t , 6 secondsknow how many of you out there remember that period of time. I was a young person. Um, in fact, I had a a friend who might be even watching today. , 16 secondsHe went out fishing with his dad. They they hopped a flight way up into Canada and he comes back 1991 in the summer. He , 23 secondscomes back and he goes, “Hey, how’s it going?” I said, “I’m good. How are you?” He says, “Did I miss much?” I said, “Yeah, the Soviet Union fell apart. It’s done.” He says, “Come on.” I said, “Go , 31 secondsget the newspaper.” He’d been going up in rural Ontario for two weeks fishing. , 37 secondsComes back. He starts looking through the paper.

He’s on the phone with me. He’s like, “Oh my god.” Like, right? , 42 seconds1991, the Soviet Union just suddenly disappears. And that is where our , 50 secondsum that is where our our our chapter opens here. Because I think, you know, if you look at the world post World War , 57 secondsII, you have a new world order uh emerges. , 2 secondsYou have this Bretton Woods thing where we we make a deal, I believe, with the British banks on how we’re going to uh run the world economy. The US dollar , 11 secondsbecomes the the de facto um world currency. Not de facto world currency, but that’s the standard especially for , 19 secondsbuying and selling petroleum. The thing about the US dollar is you may not purchase or or sell petroleum in , 28 secondsanything but US dollars no matter where you go.

That’s the that’s the agreement. , 32 secondsUm which accords a very powerful position to the United States. And then of course we have the United Nations is formed. We have a number of neoliberal , 40 secondsinstitutions, World Trade Organization that um among others that that go on from there. Uh but of course we have , 47 secondsthis you know this cold war between 194546 and 1989 to 1991 , 54 secondsafter which the common understanding that we have is that the cold war ended , 2 secondsand that capitalism and freedom won. , 8 secondsNow I don’t know if that’s really true anymore. I definitely thought it in 1991 , 16 secondsand 93 and 98 certainly and maybe to a lesser degree every year after 2000 or 2001.

, 27 secondsNow I don’t believe it’s the right question at all. Like I I don’t I think of , 32 secondsthe Cold War as a just a an evolution of the war. And I think the war was against , 40 secondsdemocracy and freedom. And it started way back at the the later part of the 19th century. And as modern technology , 48 secondsand science came up, there was a force of illiberalism that was trying to sub just subject humanity to totalitarian , 57 secondsgovernance where our uh you know our supposed superiors would tell us how to live and when to die and all this , 5 secondshorrible stuff. I think that that has been the one war and I think it’s been going on over a hundred years. But we’re , 11 secondsgoing to skip ahead to 1991 um where the Soviet Union suddenly calls it quits.

They did a few few years of , 20 secondspestroka and glasnost of warming and opening and then that that’s it. They they run out of money and the you know , 28 secondsall their component states Estonia, Latia, Lithuania etc. they they break away. Poland, Sudanosh, they they want , 37 secondsout and they have a bunch of uh folks singing concerts and the whole thing falls apart, right? So my friend goes my friend goes fishing, comes back, Soviets , 46 secondsare done, right? The wall came down in ’89. By 1991, they’re like, “All right, this is it.” Now, being an American and , 54 secondsI was just getting out of college around then. It’s great time. It’s a great time. Like the the US economy actually made some sense for a little while.

we , 2 secondswere did all this technology transfer from our uh space program. So you had stuff like yes the microwave oven , 9 secondscellular telefanany was coming online and then you had um uh you had this internet which of course was designed by , 18 secondsthe department of defense to survive nuclear strikes from the Soviets hitting our hubs of telecommunications. So the , 25 secondsinternet was created to be able to conduct uh information commerce even if uh some of our major cities were , 34 secondsdestroyed uh by the Soviets in in nuclear exchange. That’s why we have the internet the way it is and why it is so insecure is that it was designed for , 42 secondsflexibility in wartime not for a stable , 48 secondsum secure design.

So, uh, cyber security people, sorry. I know your job’s hard , 55 secondsthat, but you know, that’s bad on bad on us, I guess. But anyways, we were working on it. So, 1992 , 2 seconds345, you have this crazy period in in Russian history where like the government’s , 8 secondsgone, the the communists are gone, and really the only organization left is the , 16 secondsRussian Mafia, the the underworld. And it’s it it is not like the United States where lots of people in certain areas , 25 secondsparticularly of certain ethnic backgrounds. Now, I’m half Italian and I don’t want to use harmful , 35 secondsstereotypes about Italians being involved in organized crime, but why wouldn’t you? Because it’s so true.

Um there are there were plenty of people uh , 43 secondsItalian and other ethnicities who were involved in organized crime and you know their kids went to school and their you know their wives had jobs you know at uh , 53 secondsas secretaries at this at uh the school or city hall or whatever. Um, and unless , 2 secondsyou got pinched in a raid by the FBI, you were not uh or even if a family member was, you were not ex you were not , 10 secondsexiled from society. But if you were part of the black market in Russia in during the Soviet period, being involved , 19 secondsin black market commerce was was the death penalty over there. So this is where you get the voyakon, the thieves , 27 secondsin law.

That’s when you see those duration mob boss with like the 90,000 tattoos and the dudes are just the , 33 secondsscariest dudes you’ve ever seen. Those were the Soviet era gangsters and their progeny, man. They um you know, they weren’t allowed any position in society. , 46 secondsThey still somehow managed to exist in their system. Um well, they take over the place. They’re like the only ones that can make trucks run on time. , 56 secondsThey’re the only way you can have a restaurant. Now, guess what? The restaurant business is mobbed up everywhere else, too. But in Russia, it you’re you’re if you want fish and meat , 4 secondsand vegetables to show up at all, it’s the mob. If you want your truck to go from this warehouse to that warehouse, , 12 secondsit’s the mob.

It’s not to say that these things, ports, warehouses, logistics, , 20 secondsaren’t crime in other countries. Of course they are. But Russia now the only game in , 28 secondstown in the9s is the mafia. Now we’re sending over our privatization specialists from Harvard. , 37 secondsGuys like Larry Summers who becomes president of Harvard later. He ends up he was he’s an official in the Clinton , 44 secondsadministration. He ends up as an official in the Obama administration despite having some of the worst ideas anyone’s ever had for our economy. , 52 secondshe and some people who got into some trouble at Harvard uh for corruption. , 57 secondsThey get involved in privatizing the Soviet Union. We’re sending them guys who do accounting because well, Lord knows the Americans know how to do , 4 secondsbusiness and and and this and that.

And um you know, we’re we were trying to , 11 secondshelp get the Russians off just the the mafia. Um did it did it work? Well, you , 18 secondssee what emerged. Um, by 1999, the the mafia had created this system of oligarchs. They they consolidated , 27 secondsbusiness. Um, they privatized a lot of uh the the public works and the like , 35 secondsutilities um that depended on fossil fuels. And then they also, you know, got , 42 secondscontrol of raw materials businesses of uh of natural gas, petroleum, , 49 secondsboite, other minerals, stuff like that that had sort of all come together and you had the the the Russian mafia was uh , 58 secondsby and large in control of this. Now the there were other powers that be as well.

, 3 secondsThe the other institution that functioned at all was uh the Russian intelligence services. So by 1999 2000 , 11 secondsyou get this guy who had been an intelligence officer in East Germany and then he goes to work in kind of a you , 19 secondsknow ceremonial position in for the mayor of uh St. Petersburg Anatoli , 25 secondsSochak this guy named Vladimir Putin and he gets moved I believe into a , 36 secondsposition uh with the uh successor agencies to the KGB which is a higher , 43 secondsposition than he ever had while he was actually during the Soviet period uh when he was in East Germany. and uh he , 51 secondshe ends up being made president and that’s around the time that the FSB gets , 58 secondsthe the oligarchs under control.

And so about by the year 2000 is when you begin this this transition where all this , 7 secondsRussian capital connects to the western economy through the city of London. , 14 secondsThis is where the game really changes here is the Brits go, “Yes, Russians, , 22 secondsuh, even though you are straight up an outcropping of some of the most violent, um, you know, organized crime elements , 30 secondsin the world and your, you know, your cousins, if you will, are busy in New York rolling what’s left of the Italian , 39 secondsmafia and the Chicago mafia. you are you are taking over organized crime around the world, but , 48 secondssure, you can come and and base your capital out of London because after all, we’ll get a cut.

It’s almost as if the UK is kind of a pirate nation that is , 56 secondsused to this sort of thinking. Um but um the uh the Russians really get a tow , 4 secondshold between about 2000 and uh 2018. the things, you know, after Donald Trump is , 11 secondselected and we start looking at what the Russians were doing to our politics, especially some dudes go onto social , 18 secondsmedia without permission um and frontr run the the US intelligence community start talking about what the Russians , 24 secondshave been up to, it gets a lot of attention. And so it gets progressively less cool after Trump is elected in the , 33 secondsfirst round. the Russian influence on our elections got less cool. But for a while there, boy, you could do whatever you wanted.

And some of that is the fact , 43 secondsthat the Russians had all kinds of friends, particularly in the UK. Now, , 49 secondsone family that was key for them was the Rothschilds. , 54 secondsum they’re very key hinge and this guy Nathaniel de Rothschild or Nat Rothschild was partnered with Oleg , 2 secondsDeeripasca who is the head of Rousal the Russian aluminum and metals company I think they’re diversified by just , 9 secondsaluminum they’re now known as EN plus uh but the documented open source is they were working together um back as far as , 18 seconds2003 and Rothschild Nat de Rothschild goes on to be the chairman of Rousol , 26 secondsa as it makes one of the the the biggest IPOs in London history.

, 33 secondsSo you’ve got the Rothschilds who we know Jeff Epstein Jeffrey Epstein works , 39 secondsfor the Rothschilds all of them. In 2003 Nat de Rothschild starts working very , 46 secondsintensely with Oleg Deipasca who is known as Putin’s wallet. He’s the guy behind the steel dossier and he’s bribed , 55 secondspretty much every every dirty politician in the west. You’re when you see a combination public corruption intelligence operation, it’s probably , 3 secondsDerapasca um with money directly from the richest man in the world, Vladimir Putin. But , 10 secondshow long has this Rothschild um Russian thing been going on? It turns , 17 secondsout for a while, like 200 years. So Nathan Mayer Rothschild of the London , 24 secondsRothschilds was involved in Russian annuity bonds as far back as 1820.

, 32 secondsUm somewhat later in that century, France’s Alons De Roid provides capital for the , 39 secondsRussian oil oil sector in Baku Azerbaijan funding the Caspian and Black Sea Petroleum Company. , 49 secondsAnd the Rothschilds also invest in railroads that will get that petroleum to market. This is, you know, this is , 58 secondsthe real money in the world, right? The real money organizes to go, okay, we got um we’ve decided sort of as a group that , 7 secondswe are going to transition from, you know, wood and muscle power to coal, which works in certain circumstances, to , 15 secondsthis stuff, petroleum. And now that’s how we’re going to generate GDP around the world. So now we need to build other , 22 secondsinfrastructure to get this goopy black stuff to market because there’s going to be a market for it.

And we’re off. We’re , 30 secondsoff to the races. Um, you know, in the modern world. So Rothschild sold its Russian interest to Royal Dutch, sorry, , 39 secondsit’s it’s its Russian petroleum interest to Royal Dutch Shell around 1912. And then uh you know later in that decade , 47 secondsthere was a revolution and the Ro and the Rothschilds were were run out of the place and they were they stayed gone but they were like the first ones back in. , 56 secondsThey they established a an office in Moscow in like 1995 , 2 secondsor so. So the the Rothschilds uh you know they had interests all all throughout Europe but um they were sort , 11 secondsof jilted by Russia. You know they they they spent a lot of of of time and energy getting established there and um , 20 secondsboth their their assets I think they dested a certain amount but the Nobel family , 28 secondsone of their main competitors.

Now, think about how Trump kind of keeps poking at the Nobel Peace Prize with a , 35 secondswink, which is interesting. Um, the Nobels, I think their their stuff was nationalized by the communists in 1917. , 42 secondsSo, this is a major rupture. And, you know, after that and around this kind of stuff, this is where you get into the , 50 secondstransnational Jewish conspiracy world, um, which is not one I inhabit and not one I’ve ever talked about. It’s one , 58 secondsthat gets thrown around if you ever, you know, start connecting circuits of ideas up together. But this is kind of where it comes from. Uh the idea that these , 7 secondspeople are all working together, you know, on behalf of, you know, perhaps their religion or their ethnicity and uh you know, this is where you get this , 15 secondsidea of Zionism that maybe there should be a country that represents them and that will be uh control of the world something something.

And now you get the , 24 secondsideas of the formation of Israel, which of course predated 1948 by a long ways. , 29 secondsBut so I’m just very very aware that this is this is I can feel the electricity when you start talking about the Rothschilds, , 37 secondsyou know, in in Russia and then being run out by the communists and then there’s certain anti-semitic tropes that that pop up. This this is classic , 46 secondsconspiracy theory stuff, folks. But we So now now we need to get we need to get back we need to plug back in uh to the Epstein story because to anchor us here. , 59 secondsWhat are we talking about? So Epstein uh dies. Now we have the Epstein files that are coming out , 6 secondsand it’s Brits that start getting arrested.

Why? Why is it the Brits? , 13 secondsWell, let’s not forget who Jeffrey Epstein’s most famous partner was. A woman named Gileen Maxwell. Now, to , 21 secondsunderstand Gileen, we have to go back to her father, Robert Maxwell, uh, a normal dude, normal boy, uh, from from central , 30 secondsEurope, from Slovakia, who had six names. He starts with Yanludvig Hawk and eventually ends up with Robert Maxwell , 37 secondswhen he joins British intelligence, as one does in the 1940s. You know, you just walk in. Hi, I’ve had multiple I’m , 44 secondsI’m I’m from the AustroHungarian Empire. Uh I’ve had a bunch of different names. I’d like , 52 secondsto join your spy service. Well, come on in. We like the cut of your jib.

I mean, is that how that happened? I don’t know. , 1 secondI got a couple questions. So, um so Maxwell is from this town in Slovakia that’s so far east, it’s actually now , 9 secondspart of Ukraine. It’s not even part of a country that exists in the same way anymore. Isn’t that handy? So, Maxwell , 18 secondsuh you know gets out of British intelligence and by the 1950s he has a deal with the Soviets to commercialize , 24 secondsthe research gained from um operas operation ovakim the Soviet program of , 32 secondsrelocating the uh German scientists. It it’s it was the Soviet analog to operation paperclip. So the paper clip , 40 secondswas we grabbed as many Nazis as we could and relocated them to the United States.

, 45 secondsWe plugged them into NASA. We plugged them into Monsanto and other places. Um we let them live in Missouri. Great , 51 secondsidea, fellas. You know, Nazis. Um well, the Soviets did theirs too. And in uh the 1950s uh they you know the Soviets got this program uh with the part with the help of German , 8 secondsscientists and they launched this this thing called Splutnik right and uh Maxwell gets this sweetheart deal , 18 secondssomehow where he is allowed to commercialize and publish Soviet research to resell it to , 26 secondsthe west. I mean, that makes sense, right? You get this this kid with with five, six names who who goes and joins British intelligence during World War , 34 secondsII.

Then he gets out and then the Soviets leap ahead with their German rocket scientists. And then the the , 42 secondsMaxwell guy goes over to him. Hey fellas, I could sell your research to the West. Who are your avowed enemies? , 50 secondsSound good? Well, everything everybody thinks it sounds good. They let Maxwell publicize this. Uh they make they let let him build a business off it. It , 58 secondsmakes Maxwell rich and he gets into the British tabloid media game. Makes sense, right? You make friends with the dictatorship. You sell off its , 7 secondsscientific research and then you get in the Jerry Springer business. Does that make sense to everyone? Everyone following , 13 secondsI mean the dude has got he’s selling Soviet rocket science.

Then he goes to all these other countries and the , 21 secondsJapanese like just hand them their science. said, “Oh yeah, you you’re going to have Pergamon Press. You’re going to do scientific research , 29 secondspublishing. Oh, well, here just have our scientist stuff because you know, you you’re the friendly guy that has all the Russians stuff.” , 37 secondsAnd then he goes into the supermarket tabloid news business as well. and then , 44 secondsstarts messing around with all the pensions of all the workers and you know meanwhile uh you know sailing his yacht , 53 secondsthe Lady Gizllenn around and uh possibly you know selling arms here and there supposedly selling off copies of our , 1 secondpromise software that was our tax criminal and counter intelligence software that was stolen from the DOJ just a a nice normal guy right so that’s , 11 secondsRobert Maxwell Well, from the 1940s on up to the 80s, the 80s is when when it gets interesting.

Maxwell’s son, Kevin, , 19 secondsstarts working with this college dropout from Coney Island who’s been a trader at Bear Sterns, a guy named Jeffrey Epstein. By some accounts, he has been , 27 secondslaundering uh money for the CIA through uh a bank called BCCI or he’s been ex executing the trades for BCCI to make it , 36 secondsto cover up whatever financial minations they had to do offshore. Um that was the late ‘7s. By by the 80s, Epstein has , 44 secondsthis business chasing um offshore money even though he has like one secretary and no uh other infrastructure. No , 52 secondsnobody else working for him officially and he doesn’t necessarily have training in any of this stuff. Uh but he’s he , 59 secondsgets hired by uh Saudi arms dealer Adnan Kosogi.

, 5 secondsI want to just pause there for anybody that thinks like this is a normal story. , 10 secondsthat they should that there should be a normal linear path, you know, in any direction. Well, , 19 secondswell, well, it’s got Americans. So, why did British people go to prison? , 23 secondsAmericans should go to prison first because it should be linear. We are talking about people with six names, people that cannot explain their career to anyone. , 35 secondsPeople that have had a, you know, families that have had a 200year um 200-y year history with giant empires , 43 secondsthat have gone from Zars to communist radicals to mafia spy states. And and , 50 secondsyou think that well I think Epstein got you know he he got in trouble and then , 58 secondswe published the files here.

So if he was in New York then somebody in New Jersey should be arrested next. And I’m , 5 secondssorry that is not rational. You’re not listening if that’s what you think. Well maybe the the the Europeans just take , 12 secondscorruption more seriously. I saw that online today and it was one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. I’m like, is this the same Europe that , 20 secondsinvolves Italy and Romania? We’re we’re say that that we’re arresting people in Britain because the Europeans are tougher on corruption than we are. , 33 secondsI influence bots have a tough job this week, but you know, nice try, [snorts] I , 39 secondsguess. Um, so anyways, we back in the 1980s. So Jeffrey Epstein starts working , 47 secondswith Kevin Maxwell, uh, Gillen’s brother in the 80s, and by 91, the father, Robert Maxwell, just , 55 secondsfalls off his yacht and dies.

And then like nobody recovers him. So they they have a funeral for him on the the Mount of Olives at Israel. , 8 secondsUm, and then in in 1991, Gilen Maxwell moves right in with Jeffrey Epstein in New York, and the two immediately begin , 16 secondssex trafficking children in in addition to all the other things that they do, having dinner parties, meeting every social life they possibly can. Um, in , 24 secondsthe mid1 1990s, somewhere between 95 and 98, Epstein acquires the the largest single townhouse in , 33 secondsManhattan from this guy named Les Wexner. Um, who he manages all his money. He’s the wealthiest guy in Ohio. , 41 secondsHe runs Victoria’s Secret and all these brands. And Epstein’s managing all his money, even has power of attorney for this guy.

, 49 secondsAnd uh so he gets this giant house, wires the whole thing up with cameras, and uh he and his partner just start sex , 57 secondstrafficking girls all over the place, and they’re just on a tear for the next decade. , 3 secondsUm you know, by and I’ve I’ve interviewed some some sources on this, people that , 9 secondshave met these folks in this time period. Uh the folks being Maxwell and and Epstein. And by the 2000s, uh, even , 18 secondsby like 2001 or two, just everybody knew Epste and Maxwell. They were at everybody’s dinner parties. The the people went to Epstein’s house. And , 27 secondsmeanwhile, he’s got, you know, he’s working up the the island down in the Caribbean. He’s got the place in Palm Beach, and they are just sex trafficking , 36 secondschildren all over the place.

And everybody just thinks these people are are swell right at the exact same time , 44 secondsthat the Soviets are taking over the mafia in New York and positioning their capital uh in London and the by the , 54 secondsearly 2000 what is really happening is that Soviet Russian intelligence is , 1 secondtaking over the operations of these oligarchs. they they you know are able to use those yachts to to move stuff , 9 secondsfrom point A to B. They are using these yachts as listening devices. The the oligarchs are tools of state power. And , 18 secondsthis is what the Russians have done that is so incredible that is is they did something really historic. They merged , 25 secondsorganized crime um a state state government uh and intelligence services into a , 33 secondssingle entity.

It’s really hard to see where any of them started or stopped. , 38 secondsWhere your oligarch is really an intelligence officer and it’s really works directly for the state where the , 44 secondspresident himself Vladimir Putin is, [clears throat] you know, is a spy through and through. Um, and where your , 52 secondsmafia might be run by a guy who’s paramilitary, who’s from the GRU, who’s an intelligence officer and and a , 1 secondsoldier. Um, they’re not just the prison guys from the Soviet Union days. So, by , 8 secondsthe 2000s, the the the Russians had just created this this new organism that the , 16 secondsrest of the world didn’t know how to deal with. Intelligence people didn’t know how to deal with it.

Law enforcement didn’t know how to deal with it. Uh, it’s tr it’s like a lot of , 25 secondsRussian stuff of this sort. genius and executed with precision um and finesse , 33 secondsand um you know what it also did the way they did things , 40 secondshid their true influence because Russia effectively you know was like wait they have like $750 per person of GDP , 49 secondsofficially it might have been more than that I forget the exact stats but way under the rest of the western world they looked weak that’s Why? When everybody , 57 secondswas talking about them in 2016, it’s why I went I I was going nuts after Trump won and everyone’s like, “Yeah, this , 4 secondsthere was a heavy Russian influence.” I was like, “They’re not this strong.” Because this is the thing.

They they had partnerships with organized crime with , 14 secondsthe Chinese regime and these radical regimes of North Korea, Syria, Iran, Venezuela. , 22 secondsit you had to assess the Russian power in terms of that whole network. It’s not just guys named Sergey and Ilia working , 32 secondsout of Moscow using a Russian bank. It’s not how it works. It’s they have networks and they control them all over , 41 secondsand they work with, you know, all these different ethnicities and regime types and they’re all fungeible and it’s the , 49 secondsthe management of these things that is done with such genius and helped by locals that have their own skill sets, , 57 secondsdirty MI6 dudes that have their own skill sets, dirty MOSAD guys who have their own skill sets, and that just , 5 secondsamplifies eyes what Russia’s up to.

This is this has been an incredible period of , 11 secondstime there. But looking back at how the city of London really , 19 secondswas important, just absolutely key for this. Um Russian money is flowing in to where it can then become a UK charity or , 28 secondsa UK business or a fund or whatever and then they can start making donations to UK politicians. In fact, uh this this , 36 secondsguy Evani Lebadev, you know, they have the son of, you know, a KGB officer who has been elevated to the puridge. , 47 secondsNow, I mean, the Russian, you know, Russian influence over there was just allowed to to to run around. And this is , 57 secondsbecause their banks, they took so much more Russian money than the United States did.

and their system of laws are , 4 secondsnot such that they could really defend against uh nor was there apparently from their royal family on down much desire , 13 secondsto defend against um the Russians. So you you have you know this this phase shift that’s , 22 secondshappened where Britain is pretty Russian London and more uh of course Britain itself has taken on a character of a lot , 31 secondsof different ethnicities but that has to do with the fact they had a global empire but the city of London is , 38 secondsbecoming more and more Russian. Now compare that I think with what’s going on in the United States in the same time , 47 secondsperiod while this is happening slowly but surely the year 2000 to 2017 in Lond in London there’s one thing it’s getting , 56 secondsmore Russian it’s getting more Chinese what’s going on in the United States well we had 911 hell of a distraction we had the 2000 , 4 secondsthe year 2000 ends with Enron blowing up global crossing.com bust party’s , 9 seconds[snorts] , 10 secondsGod, the 90s were fun.

I loved it. I lived in Washington DC in the late 90s. , 18 secondsYou have a lot of fun there. If you could spell HTML, they pay $60,000. So fun. , 28 seconds2001, we uh we have a very contentious election between Al Gore and George W. , 33 secondsBush, and Bush wins. Um and then by September, it gets way less fun. Bush’s people were already acting pretty weird , 41 secondsand you had these Project for a New American Century guys, uh, Rumsfeld, Wolf Witz, Richard Pearl, all these guys , 48 secondsare poised for something. Then the planes hit the towers and we got to go into Afghanistan. Well, for some of us , 57 secondswho were intelligence analysts back in the day, we already knew Afghanistan was a problem.

For any of you that have seen , 3 secondsCharlie Wilson’s war, um yeah, uh we won the war, up the peace, and uh we , 11 secondswe left those people alone with these psychopaths and they were starting to do things like, you know, fire missiles at , 18 secondsancient Buddhas statues and condemn condemn television sets to death. They were crazy. So that we had to go clean that up seemed like that was overdue , 27 secondspolicy. We need, you know, we they owed better. However, what what happened there was then we had , 34 secondsthis group which includes a group in the United Kingdom that are like, “Oh, yeah, and now we need to invade Iraq.” , 42 secondsAnd you know, the problem is that, you know, we had intelligence failures that preceded 9/11.

There were some , 51 secondspeople who said, “Well, we never imagined anybody using planes as weapons.” And I know that’s because I’m an analyst and we did things , 58 secondslike planes as weapons. It’s not that hard to imagine, right? So that’s a lie. , 3 secondsThere were there were scenarios that were discussed and operational plans that were filed around stuff like that. , 10 secondsUm but the real intelligence failure and it was almost wasn’t even a failure. , 17 secondsAfter the decision was made to go and invade Iraq, we created a bunch of fake intelligence , 24 secondsum with the help of the CIA and certain DoD assets like the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency, which , 32 secondsunfortunately um did some analysis of some photos and trucks and said, “Yep, those are your weapons of mass destruction.

There you go.” And the guy , 39 secondsbehind that was a guy named Jim Clapper who’s now facing a grand jury over the Steel Dossier stuff which involves , 47 secondsBritish intelligence. So this is where this is all coming in here. Um so we , 55 secondshave September 11 happens and then we got to go to Iraq and guys just make up intelligence off the top. This , 4 secondsstuff is just, you know, it’s not just bad intelligence. It’s not a failure. It’s not a failure of imagination. , 12 secondsThe people wrote things down saying Saddam has weapons of mass destruction. , 18 secondsAnd then when you look at the declassified stuff that’s top secret at the time, it says we assess with high confidence that Saddam Hussein would , 26 secondslike to have weapons of mass destruction.

Well, you know, ha, having , 33 secondsa ham sandwich and wanting to have a ham sandwich are different things if you’re hungry, right? So, the desire to have , 40 secondssomething is noteworthy. Yes, intent is important in the classical um you know, intelligence analysis , 48 secondsframeworks. There’s capabilities and intent. I I don’t work that way. My stuff is more sophisticated than that, but that’s the classic. What have you , 56 secondsgot to play with and what do you want to do with it? Capabilities and intent. , 1 secondGenerally though, intent without capabilities is who gives a crap. And uh in any event, it took a few of our NATO , 9 secondspartners, you know, going, “Oh yeah, well, here’s a guy named Curveball, German intelligence sent us this weird Iraqi chemical engineer who just hated , 18 secondsSaddam Hussein.” And anyhow, uh we decide to invade Iraq.

And who who helps us out in that is Tony Blair who’s part , 27 secondsof this new labor movement that came up at the same time during the Clinton era. , 32 secondsAnd uh one of the guys that is part of that is guy named uh Peter Mandolen. , 39 secondsAnd he becomes an important factor in in in what’s ahead. So what else is going on in the 2000s? So, we got 9/11, we got , 48 secondsthe Iraq war invasion, and we get some help there from some British friends. , 53 secondsIt’s a it’s a real slog in the United States, but you have this the these policy decisions made in part with the , 1 secondhelp of this guy Larry Summers when he was with the Clinton administration. , 5 secondsThey deregulate the banks in such a way that all of the sudden the price of homes doubles, triples in these places.

, 11 secondsAnd so we have this housing boom which very predictably and very quickly ends up detonating in 2008. , 19 secondsAnd that’s the end of the Bush era and the beginning of the Barack Obama era. , 24 secondsAnd this is actually the time period that the the law enforcement is looking at in the US and [snorts] in the UK. And , 33 secondsI know why they are because that was a real coup d’eta moment where our banks , 41 secondswere detonated on like on purpose and there were all these bankers in New , 49 secondsYork and London ready to basically buy up the rest of our stuff. And this is , 56 secondswhen your purchasing power as a wage earner just starts getting pounded into the ground. This is when you know this , 5 secondsis when global elites from Beijing to Paris to um to Buenosirus.

If you are , 16 secondsthe elite classes of those societies, you can buy more than you ever dreamed of. And this is when we have real , 24 secondsdegradation of our democratic institutions and I think driving us towards the inflection point which is , 31 secondsthe election of Donald Trump in 2016 and Brexit in 2016. , 38 secondsSo uh can you guys civil aure asset forfeite the elite class? You you may be , 46 secondsskipping ahead in the story here. That may be where we’re going. C can we civil forfeite the elite class? , 54 secondsElite class is too broad as a uh a as a category to be a party. I don’t think we , 1 secondcan class action them per se, but I think we can do them individually for their wire frauds and other criminalities.

So maybe that’s where we’re headed. Who knows? , 11 secondsSo this 2008 period gets real interesting for this crew that is getting arrested right now. So um in , 21 seconds2008 the the UK business secretary Peter Mandolson meets with Russian oligarch Oleg , 30 secondsDeipasca from Rousal and N plus um remember the guy is called Putin’s , 37 secondswallet on his yacht off of Corfu. He he’s not the only one. There are others who do. Dear Pasco was seeking a UK visa , 45 secondsand favorable investment access to Europe, the year 2008. , 51 secondsSo this is the year the the American banks blow up. Um around that time, Prince Andrew was UK , 59 secondsspecial representative for international trade and investment.

And in ‘ 07, Andrew sells his Sunning Hill Park home , 6 secondsto Teimu Kulabayz, the son-in-law of Kazakhstan’s president. So everybody, this crew , 16 secondsstarts getting real cozy with the with Putin’s wallet around the time of the financial crisis. , 26 secondsAnd it is in this period of 07 to 2011 that these guys were funneling intelligence on the daily it it seems to , 36 secondsJeffrey Epstein in New York. Now it’s such an interesting period because that is when he gets prosecuted for sex , 44 secondstrafficking and they go unexpectedly light on him down in the state of Florida. The feds under George W. Bush , 52 secondswave off prosecution and that was under um Alberto Gonzalez was attorney general when those decisions were made.

George W. Bush is president, Dick Cheney is vice president. It’s still not clear who made what decision. I’ll bet we’ll find , 8 secondsout. We’re getting to the bottom of this. But so it’s this period that Epstein , 16 secondsgets prosecuted for all this nasty stuff they’re doing with children. , 21 secondsand he gets uh you know prison summer day camp where he gets to play tennis and still go home and sleep in his bed and receive financial intelligence from , 30 secondshis network of Russian connected scumbags in in the United Kingdom. Huh. , 35 seconds[snorts] , 35 secondsUm, so the banks all blow up in 2008 and the you know this goes on into ‘ 09 , 45 secondswhich is like a depression and 2010 the contagion goes to Europe right , 52 secondsone thing’s for certain that Russia and China were the undisputed beneficiaries of that you you know, I had three employees.

Um, my office was two blocks from the White , 8 secondsHouse. Two two years later, after the after the banks crashed, I moved to St. , 13 secondsLouis um to uh to to ride out the storm in some place cheaper, right? It was a real , 22 secondsproblem for me and the million people that lost their homes and everybody else. The Russians loved it, the Chinese loved it, and the elite asset owning , 31 secondsclasses, they did great. They got paid out of our federal treasuries. They got, you know, they got policies written just for them, right? , 41 secondsSo, let us skip ahead to somebody uh who had a very specific position in that time , 49 secondsperiod of the runup to the explosion of the banks 2005 to 2011.

You have the , 57 secondschairman of Rousolan plus you know this is Darosca’s company the chairman was Nat de Ro Rothschild , 7 secondsum he was a critical investor in the Rousile IPO in Hong Kong in in 2010 and Epstein refers to Nat Rothschild as a , 15 secondsmutual friend in his correspondence with Peter Mandelen and we know Epstein was even more , 22 secondsconnected to Arian D Rothschild advis advising on banking ma matters and other family um disputes that came up. And let us remember again Wexner’s deposition. , 34 secondsHe said, “Hey, I knew like one of the the he’s the richest guy in um he’s the richest guy in Ohio and he’s international. He’s got a place in Ohio. , 45 secondsHe’s got a place in New York.

He does a lot of work with Israel. And he paid on behalf of the Israelis. I believe he paid Frank Luntz to do um market , 55 secondsresearch on selling the Iraq war to American people. That was Les Wexner. He says, “Hey, I only knew one of the , 2 secondsRothschilds. Epstein worked for all of them and that’s why I worked with Epstein and I gave him power of attorney , 9 secondsand all that.” So , 16 secondswe we now look at who Roth Nat Rothschild was, you know, one of Epstein’s friends was working handinand , 24 secondsglove with Dip Pasca and let us remember who Derapasca was and then I’ll take some questions from , 32 secondsyou guys. Derapasca appears to have been directly behind the attack on the 2016 election.

He was directly behind Brexit. , 41 secondsHe’s the guy that paid for the steel dossier. In addition, yes, Paul Singer did as well. Um, but Derapasca hired , 50 secondsFusion GPS. He hired um Christopher Steel for other things to supposedly chase down Paul Maniffort’s money, but , 58 secondsreally Paul Maniffort was on Derapasca’s payroll. , 1 minute, 2 secondsAnd Steel of course was the one who cooks up he was Steel is a a British intelligence officer who cooks up this , 1 minute, 11 secondsdossier. Supposedly it’s attributed to these two guys. Chuck Dolan, who was a PR executive with Ketchum, former , 1 minute, 19 secondsClinton uh administration official who worked directly for the for the Kremlin, and a guy named um Igor Donenko who was , 1 minute, 27 secondsan a research guy at Brookings, ostensibly um Ukrainian national.

Uh, but it was a , 1 minute, 37 secondsfraudulent product saying that Donald Trump was the preferred candidate of of the Russian Federation. Whether that was , 1 minute, 46 secondstrue or not, this product was fraudulent. , 1 minute, 49 secondsAnd it’s not clear exactly who was behind it, but we do know that Derapasca and ultimately Vladimir Putin were , 1 minute, 58 secondsbehind the thing that said that Trump was in Putin’s uh pocket there. , 2 minutes, 5 secondsSo here th this is I think why the Epstein story is so interesting that Epstein , 2 minutes, 14 secondsknows all these players that were in and around the Russian assault on our democracy. But they they were part of a , 2 minutes, 20 secondslarger attack on democracy in multiple countries here.

So now we’re we’re we’ve got grand jury open in Florida about the , 2 minutes, 29 secondssteel dossier stuff. John Brennan’s probably going to be arrested soon. Jim Clapper will probably follow. There could be lots of guys in in that area. , 2 minutes, 38 secondsWe know that Epstein was setting up to have lunch with John Brennan, which is very strange for a CIA director, and they were uh uh connected up by Kathy , 2 minutes, 47 secondsRumler, who was Epstein’s spy in the Obama administration. , 2 minutes, 50 secondsUm, so here’s my guess. You know, we’re we’re all going to learn something in the days to come. I think they’re going , 2 minutes, 58 secondsto flip Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and Peter Mandlesson.

They’re going to flip them on the Rothschilds. They’re going to get cooperating witnesses against the , 3 minutes, 7 secondsRothschilds and the Russians. , 3 minutes, 11 secondsAnd that’s why they’ve started the arrests in Britain first because they’re really going at Vladimir Putin. , 3 minutes, 20 secondsbecause I do believe that Epstein was probably an Israeli agent, but I absolutely think he was a Russian agent. , 3 minutes, 26 secondsBut really, he’s something else. He’s this operative at the nexus of all these ugly powers, the ugliest powers. , 3 minutes, 35 secondsSo, this story is so much bigger than just a bunch of perverts. I think the perversion and the the systematic abuse , 3 minutes, 42 secondsof children is how they got certain people implicated in their crimes with them and how they had currency uh with other psychopaths.

, 3 minutes, 52 secondsBut it’s so much bigger than that. It’s really about the financial moves. It’s about the creation of wars and it’s about taking over the world. Super ugly. , 4 minutes, 2 secondsThat’s my story. I’m sticking to it. , 4 minutes, 3 secondsIt’s crazy, isn’t it? There’s a lot going on. , 4 minutes, 7 secondsSo, I’m going to look up here. Um, I haven’t taken any questions and you’ve been very patient. So, um, , 4 minutes, 14 secondswe’ll go from we’ll we’ll just, uh, take off here. Dery again, uh, was Brunell , 4 minutes, 21 secondsEpstein. Brunell was the um, the, uh, French model um, agent in in Paris. Uh, was Brunell , 4 minutes, 30 secondsEpstein or was Epstein Brunell? Uh Brunell was arrested and shortly after his arrest in 2020 or 2021, he gets uh he he commits suicide in a Paris jail.

, 4 minutes, 42 secondsAre either of these men really dead? I don’t know. They look dead, but there’s a lot of ways to do that. Um , 4 minutes, 50 secondsI So I don’t know. I haven’t I have no relevant intelligence whatsoever. Can’t say. Very interesting, though. , 4 minutes, 56 secondsUm I rather watch Game Theory today than Orange Ben stupid pretend State of the Union. , 5 minutes, 7 secondsThank you for being here. Um, I feel you and thank you. Um, [laughter] our man Neil, it’s good to It’s good to , 5 minutes, 15 secondshave UK uh viewers who know what I’m talking about here. It’s the big British swamp roundup 2026. Hey, a lot of Brits are as upset about this and sick of , 5 minutes, 24 secondsthese guys as we are.

So, we’re all going to sing Kumbaya around the fire. , 5 minutes, 27 secondsIt’s going to be great. [snorts] Good times ahead here. , 5 minutes, 32 secondsUm, what year did I learn the Epstein files existed or that big octopus-l like web existed? , 5 minutes, 41 secondsUm, the Epstein files, uh, you know, I’ve known about Jeffrey Epstein for a lot of years. I have interviewed his , 5 minutes, 49 secondsformer business partner. I have talked to people in the network. Um, and uh, I never thought of him as a specific set , 5 minutes, 58 secondsof files. In fact, I think one of the issues might be that we might not have collected enough intelligence about him because he’s so scary because he , 6 minutes, 6 secondsrepresents these very these large powers that push around CIA directors.

, 6 minutes, 13 secondsSo, um, I think of it differently. I think, you know, of the the files sort of like, you know, this is how I got , 6 minutes, 20 secondssideways with the guys who were saying, “Oh, it’s the Russia hoax.” There was a Russia hoax. The Steel Dossier was a , 6 minutes, 26 secondsRussia hoax. But I I had such a reaction to this whole framing of it’s a hoax. Um , 6 minutes, 35 secondsbecause it’s like the the Russians are not a hoax. this stuff. Derapasca, Putin, the Russian intelligence, the , 6 minutes, 42 secondsmafia, the city of London, and then the Republicans just wave their hand and go, “It’s all a hoax. We’re not going to talk about it.” I’m like, “We have to , 6 minutes, 50 secondstalk about it.” Um, so I, you know, I think of the the Epstein files like the Russia hoax.

It’s framing it in a way , 6 minutes, 59 secondsthat’s that’s unhelpful. That’s what that’s what we’re using today is the Epstein files. Okay, the Epstein files , 7 minutes, 6 secondsare out. In in reality, a small chunk of data is out. So, it’s small. These people make huge moves. They’ve been , 7 minutes, 14 secondseverywhere. You haven’t learned half the stuff yet. We’re barely warming up with this. This is a discussion about who , 7 minutes, 22 secondsreally runs the world. That’s what’s going on. So, um, when did I learn that the Epstein files existed? Um, you know, , 7 minutes, 31 secondsI I really started focusing on Epstein in 2017 after we started talking about the Russians. I I started looking at Epstein , 7 minutes, 39 secondsand I I knew we would end up here eventually.

It’s pretty wild. , 7 minutes, 46 secondsEpstein tried to break the US economy like three times. Agreed. , 7 minutes, 51 secondsLet’s see. um arrests and I match managed to catch the , 8 minutesactual live stream. Thank you for being here and I’m glad there are arrests. The arrests are better than me, you know. , 8 minutes, 13 secondsLet’s see. Ah, yes. Rest in peace, Lid Vanenko. when I when I was talking about the the connection between the the , 8 minutes, 21 secondsRussians uh their their link of the the intelligence and the mafia and the , 8 minutes, 27 secondsstate. uh Alexander Litfenenko um went and tried to warn the Brits and , 8 minutes, 33 secondsthen and the um and the Spanish police they to say hey you are not analyzing , 8 minutes, 40 secondsthis correct that’s litenko is the guy that got hit with the pelonium tea who died slowly as a warning to everybody , 8 minutes, 47 secondselse not to go tell the Russians secrets maybe we’ll see a statute of litenko one day , 8 minutes, 57 secondsNeil asks I wonder if Tony Blair figures into this Russian takeover of London in the 90s.

Of course, [laughter] you know, he’s he’s been at the center of so much. , 9 minutes, 8 secondsIt’s very interesting. Trump puts him on the the board of peace for half a second and then looks like he’s maybe not going to be part of it. Um, let’s see. , 9 minutes, 23 secondsYes, there was a lot of online chatter in first half of 2001 through 2002 pushing for war. [clears throat] In retrospect, there were similarities with the lead to 2016 election pushing , 9 minutes, 32 secondsdivisions just without social media algorithms. Yeah, that’s right. It and , 9 minutes, 37 secondsit was very similar and um I remember a lot of decis divisiveness of of that , 9 minutes, 45 secondssort at uh at the time.

In fact, a lot of the there were a lot of senior guys that that got their start in the Bush , 9 minutes, 54 secondsadministration in 2001. From January on, they’re like, “We want to hear about targets in Iraq.” Well, before 911. , 10 minutes, 3 secondsSo, yeah, we haven’t heard the half of that. , 10 minutes, 12 secondsJohn Brennan, a bad guy. Yeah, it seems he was messing around in our elections. , 10 minutes, 18 secondsCIA is not supposed to be doing that. He was incorporating this absolute garbage uh British fanfic , 10 minutes, 27 secondsin into intelligence community assessments. Uh he’s he appears to be a bad guy. I’m not a fan and I think he’s , 10 minutes, 35 secondsabout to be indicted for being mixed up in all this.

, 10 minutes, 41 secondsOoh, a fantastic question here. S. Carol451. , 10 minutes, 48 secondsUm, do you think they played up the sex trafficking pedo aspect of Epstein to downplay the money laundering and influence peddling aspect? Absolutely. , 10 minutes, 57 secondsThat’s exactly why you do that. Because who wants to talk about that stuff? It’s , 11 minutes, 4 secondsgross. It’s upsetting. If you’ve been abused in your own childhood, it’s triggering, right? So highlighting that , 11 minutes, 14 secondsas being the main issue and not a global corruption network to steal and sell off democracy, , 11 minutes, 22 secondsmaking this part of their activities, which is really, I think, a testament to sociopathy.

I think these guys get together and they do whatever maximum , 11 minutes, 31 secondssociopathic thing they can just to show the next guy that they’re a bigger scumbag psychopath than they are. And they that’s oneupsmanship. , 11 minutes, 40 secondsBut I think the the real crimes are are at the bank, you know, when you the real crimes are , 11 minutes, 48 secondsmaking uh healthc care cost 40% more every year. Haha. And you know, ruining , 11 minutes, 55 secondsold folks homes. There’s other crimes, too. And this stuff against kids is nasty. And it is pervasive. It’s not just the rich guys going to an island , 12 minutes, 4 secondswith kids. It’s it is systematically degrading the the the childhood that you , 12 minutes, 12 secondsknow this species has.

Um traumatizing young people at every uh you know at every level on social media in their , 12 minutes, 20 secondsschools uh chemicals in the in the water all over the place. Um but it’s just one , 12 minutes, 27 secondsaspect of the sociopathy of this class of people and hopefully uh we are , 12 minutes, 34 secondsuh we are going to discuss what they’ve been up to. So , 12 minutes, 42 secondsah wonderful question. Have you thought any more about why they release this information if it’s so bad for them? , 12 minutes, 50 secondsYeah, there’s got there’s there’s got to be I don’t know if space aliens are getting ready to expose us if they don’t follow a certain time frame or if there’s it’s a ticking Mayan calendar.

, 13 minutes, 1 secondI’m not sure. There there seems to be an impetus behind all of this. I can’t , 13 minutes, 8 secondsquite tell what it is. Some in some ways I think that the creation of the the the iPhone in 2007 , 13 minutes, 15 secondsset a timer off. We were we started collecting so much intelligence about each other and how our bodies work and , 13 minutes, 22 secondshow our societies work, politicians and all that. There was so much intelligence coming in. We just couldn’t lie to each , 13 minutes, 32 secondsother. Our all everybody’s telecom companies would be wirelessly tracking everyone. , 13 minutes, 40 secondsUm, so I don’t think um, you know, I I think once we incorporated the smartphone into the world that it was , 13 minutes, 49 secondseither the forces of democracy were going to win or the forces of corruption were going to win.

And I think we’re I think we’re winning. I think we’re going , 13 minutes, 56 secondsto win this one cuz people have taken too many stupid selfies, man. And these smartphones are too good. So it took about 20 years, but somebody had to win. , 14 minutes, 7 secondsThey man they thought with their social media and their surveillance tech they thought they were going to mind control us and track us and do all this stuff , 14 minutes, 14 secondsand instead we just you know we have enough court ready evidence that the prosecutions prosecute themselves. , 14 minutes, 22 secondsThat’s what I think. , 14 minutes, 27 secondsAh remember when Putin made all the Soviet bases used for their war in Afghanistan available for us to invade?

, 14 minutes, 33 secondsI do. Do I think there was probably something in there? Probably. You know, when we went and used their bases in , 14 minutes, 41 secondsTajikhstan or whatever that I think Manifford helped us set up. , 14 minutes, 47 secondsStrange stuff, man. Strange. So, uh, yeah, I mean, the whole thing was a , 14 minutes, 54 secondssetup. Like, this is compare the Afghanistan war, the Iraq war, which just took 20 years and didn’t go anywhere. Compare that with Venezuela. , 15 minutes, 4 secondsWe come in, we discombobulate you, we shoplift your president, we we regime change you in an afternoon. , 15 minutes, 12 secondsWe go, “Good. We’re going to have our CIA head come here in about a week and then our SOCOM guy will be here in two weeks.

All right, keep your , 15 minutes, 20 secondstogether. See you.” I mean, it’s just totally different. , 15 minutes, 24 secondsIt’s like we’re not intending to just go to war forever and ever anymore. I I I quite like it, to be honest. , 15 minutes, 37 secondsAnd we shouldn’t forget Rothschild bailed Trump out in the 90s. I I don’t have the entire history of of Trump’s bailouts. They’re all very interesting. , 15 minutes, 47 secondsTrump is going to get more interesting, not less interesting as time go goes on. That’s my that’s my predictions there. , 15 minutes, 56 secondsSo, we’ll all learn something together there. Sociopaths perpetually double down based on my , 16 minutes, 3 secondsobservations of certain individuals just in the last couple weeks.

Can confirm there’s a lot of that happening right now. That might be actually very very , 16 minutes, 10 secondsinteresting is that these guys get all strappy and arrogant and stupid just as like the entire planet’s law enforcement , 16 minutes, 18 secondsmechanism comes down on them. It could be really fun to watch. Bad things happen to terrible people. , 16 minutes, 27 secondsAnd could they just be inept with these weird releases of the Epstein files? , 16 minutes, 32 secondsAlways assume the possibility of government incompetence. You know, stupidity can do a great number of things um that treachery cannot. , 16 minutes, 43 secondsStupidity is much more consistent than treachery and um shrewdness.

That’s that’s that is my my view of that. , 16 minutes, 52 secondsWell, so we’ve we’ve had a good chat here. Um, leave leave more questions in the comments. Um, see you on Twitter. , 17 minutes, 1 secondPlease subscribe to this channel if you haven’t and uh and ring the bell uh if you’d like to know when the next , 17 minutes, 9 secondsepisodes are going to be. These are fun to do and I look forward to doing more of them. And every day we are going to learn just a ton. Thank you for being , 17 minutes, 17 secondshere tonight. I appreciate seeing all of you and uh see you again soon. Ciao.
