Great that people are noting Epstein’s role as a classic ‘disaster capitalist’ along with Paul Marshall and Crispin Odey.

I wrote a week ago how he told Bannon “Brexit is just the beginning”

Epstein Files: Three Devastating Revelations That Demand More Attention And what we can do to better ensure the full transparency every victim deserves

We need to talk about this because corporate media won't.

1. The FBI knew about at least 10 co-conspirators who enabled Epstein
2. The FBI received multiple tips from women reporting Epstein’s abuse, some explicitly named Trump
3. The DOJ has redacted far beyond what the law allows

Read more.

Tomorrow morning I’ll be going to review the unredacted Epstein Files.

What we have seen so far reeks of a cover-up. It’s time for the truth.

🧵6/6

Key points

Russian threat clear, present, serious
Reform heavily involved in manipulation
Details cited
Treason and fraud stated

MPs dismissing Russian interference are lying
Press not reporting and media playing down is misleading public

This should be shared widely by MPs, media, and us.

Rep. Raskin Confirms ‘Troubling’ And ‘Unnecessary’ Epstein File Redactions

Jamie Raskin said he reviewed an email sent from Epstein to co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell that was a forwarded conversation between Epstein’s lawyers and lawyers for Donald Trump.

The DOJ (illegally) redacted Trump's name in the public files.

Grim morning for the Labour Party but it is healthier to live in a country where decisions have consequences than one where an administration steeped in contact with Epstein sails happily on, even as the resignations pile up across Europe

Savage and accurate summary in the FT www.ft.com/content/2002...

Just discovered Mandelson’s reaction to our first report he’d leaked government emails:

From Blair to Putin to Starmer: PR chief Tim Allan’s CV Former New Labour spin-doctor has faced criticism over his choice of clients, including Russia’s government

a reminder that Tim Allan, who quit Starmer's Downing St today, previously spun for....not only Kazakhstan and Qatar but also Vladimir Putin’s government

In the UK, the PM faces calls to resign and his chief of staff and comms guy quit because they named an ambassador with Epstein ties. But here the Commerce Secretary, caught redhanded in a lie about his financial and personal links to Epstein, hopes to brazen it out. www.cbsnews.com/news/howard-...

Isn’t it crazy that the anonymous staffer who posted that racist meme is named in the Epstein files tens of thousands of times—and the majority of our Republican colleagues still haven’t said a thing?

'It gets weirder': Small detail in DOJ statement on Epstein's death ignites online frenzy A small detail in a Justice Department statement on the 2019 death of Jeffrey Epstein has ignited an online frenzy of speculation, with many pointing to the document as proof that the disgraced financ...

"...the document in question appears to be a draft statement on the death of Epstein, who was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell on the Friday morning of August 10, 2019. The date on the draft statement, however, reads August 9, a full day before the disgraced financier was found dead."

Epstein was a registered sex offender in 2008.

But Musk, Zuckerberg and Thiel don’t mind and are still happy to attend his ‘wild’ party.

Russia’s consolidated budget deficit reached almost 4% of GDP in 2025 As Russian regions shoulder more war costs and social security funds are depleted, the consolidated budget balance has deteriorated far more than expected.

Russia's fiscal situation is worse than expected: The consolidated budget had a deficit of nearly 4% of GDP in 2025. Regions are under pressure from increasing war costs. Social funds were forced to draw down their reserves after federal transfers were cut. Read: open.substack.com/pub/janisklu...

In a touching tribute to his mentor, Morgan McSweeney has resigned in disgrace.

Epstein was in and out of Russia every few months according to his travel documents, but Mandelson was partying in nightclubs in St Petersburg and regularly in Moscow.

How did our intelligence services fail to pick this up? Or were their reports and investigations suppressed?

The world heard JD Vance being booed at the Olympics. Except for viewers in the US | Bryan Armen Graham The real risk for American broadcasters is not that dissent will be visible. It is that audiences will start assuming anything they do not show is being hidden
