The most important thing in today's Epstein files may involve 4chan. In 2011, Epstein met with 4chan creator Christopher "moot" Poole; that same day, Poole launched the /pol/ board that 3 years later would be the heart of Gamergate. And Gamergate was the start of the movements that led to Jan 6. 1/
he also appears to have met moot the same day /pol/ was (re)launched (not my image)

This is a big scoop and further details the scope of the far-right insurgency within the US. The “Chairman for life,” setup itself is an overt challenge to the constitution. Troy’s reporting detailing the use of the USPTO to house the legal framework of a supranational org is critically important.

Very long story short, what we are finding is that both Trump and Epstein were products of a large scale subversion campaign designed by Vladimir Kryuchkov to topple the West, with Trump as a political front and Maxwells/Epstein tasked with allocating ~$50 billion in KGB funds.

Having now observed the Hegseth and Trump speeches, I'd describe their approach as "soft purge." Both made references to making things uncomfortable for those not aligned with their worldview. Creates a basis for gradual firings and resignations going forward.

ICYMI, the sex abuses are terrible and real, but this is the story that Putin and Trump absolutely don't want you to know. Part four of our series on Epstein's influence activities reveals his involvement with Russia's decades-long war on the west.
📄 EXCLUSIVE: Epstein was close with Vitaly Churkin, a Russian Ambassador with close ties to KGB head Vladimir Kryuchkov. Kryuchkov and Churkin brought Trump to Moscow in 1987, and may be the link to Robert Maxwell. New, original reporting.

It’d be great if America could get past the reflexive blame game after every shooting in this country and start focusing on the actual root causes: gun culture, gamer culture, young men getting radicalized online, and mental health. Otherwise, it’s just going to keep happening—left or right.
