If you look at the men & the think tanks behind Brexit, it is the exact same men & the exact same think tanks behind Trump, and the exact same media too. Maybe one day people will see this.
A mind map showing the UK Think Tanks behind Brexit, and their links to the UK media, as well as, in many cases, their links to Russia. Legatum Group, Legatum Plaza, Dubai Christopher Chandler Founder Legatum Institute Pushed for a hard Brexit Shankar Singham Director Wrote ultimatum letter to May from Gove & Johnson Crawford Falconer Trade Liam Fox Named as UK Trade Negotiator With USA Henry Sands SABI Strategy Group Contracted to Vote Leave Mathew Boris Johnson Foreign Secretary THE LEGATUM INSTITUTE CONNECTION David Davis Brexit Secretary Paul Marshall Legatum Funder Allegations Brexit letter was influenced by LI Hosted Singham at Chevening Pro-Brexit hedge fund manager Michael Gove Environment Secretary Liam Fox International Trade Sec Christopher Chandler Legatum Funder Tim Montgomerie Pro-Brexit moutnplece Legatum fellow and editor of Unheard website Vote Leave Matthew Elliot Legatum Senior Fellow Held meeting with Singham Shanker Singham Legatum trade commisoner Steve Baker Conservative MP Leading Brexit minister Crawford Falconer Dubal-based billionaire behind Legatum Toby Baxendale Legatum Trustee Described the Legatum Institute as 'remarkable Former Legatum employee and trade adviser to Fox Philip Rycroft Helped run Leadsom's leadership bid Andrea Leadsom Leader of the House of Commons Dual US and UK citizen with excellent access to Government ministers and senior civil servants particularly in Brexit departments Theresa May Prime Minister THE CENTRE FOR SOCIAL USTICE DEXEU civil servant has met with Singham Head of pro-Brexit pressure groups Vote Leave and Taxpayers' Alliance TaxPayers' Alliance Philippa Stroud Legatum CEO lan Duncan Smith Conservative MP Pro-Brexit Tory leadership hopeful Spoke at Legatum event as Home Secretary Co-founder of Centre for Social Justice Leading Brexiteer Legatum Ties One such major player in GB News is Legatum, an international investment firm based in the Dubai International Financial Centre, a tax-free zone in the United Arab Emirates. Legatum is currently GB News' co-lead investor, putting a reported £20 million into its initial £6o million fundraising. The firm's founder and chairman is Christopher Chandler, who made his fortune investing in 'emerging markets' in 'times of political and economic uncertainty, including the stripping and privatising of Russia's assets in the 199OS. The idea that Chandler, a New Zealander working in the Middle East with no known prior involvement in broadcasting, suddenly wants to make patriotic British telly seems fairly unlikely. But he is world’s most successful asset-stripper.

NPR reported this morning that, based on their review of the #Epstein emails released yesterday, Trump’s name appeared more than 1,000 times in the document—

"I have met some very bad people, none as bad as #Trump. Not one decent cell in his body." - Jeffrey Epstein
A black-and-white photo of Trump & Epstein in suits standing close together at what appears to be a party, with Trump holding two children in front of him while the Epstein holds a drink.

It is crucial to understand that a tragic number of people dangerously believe that the word "freedom" means not the expansion of freedom for others, but the freedom for themselves to oppress others, to control others, and to force their beliefs on others.

A convicted felon who had also been found liable for sexual assault and committed additional crimes in plain sight was close with a notorious child sex trafficker and likely participated in some of those crimes too got elected with much of that known and spent his presidency railing against “crime.”

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

Slow handclap for BBC News, who utterly failed to mention the removal of healthcare for millions of Americans. This absence is quite deliberate, just like omitting the downsides of Brexit. Shame on BBC News directors & the conservative elites who put them in power.
Summary • US President Donald Trump has signed a bill ending the longest government shutdown in the country's history • It came shortly after the House, the lower chamber of the US Congress, passed the bill in a 222 to 209 vote, with six Democrats joining the Republicans to vote yes • It's been 43 days since the shutdown began. Thousands of federal employees have been working without pay, furloughed, or laid off. Federal programs, agencies and departments have stalled without funding.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

As Karoline Leavitt concludes her press briefing and walks off, @andrewfeinberg.com asks: "What was the president doing with Virginia Giuffre for hours at Epstein's house?"

She did not respond.

Yeah, there's just no way that Jeffrey Epstein was surviving all the way to trial in a BOP facility controlled by Donald Trump and William Barr.

Wow, it's almost as if the supposedly crazy conspiracy theory that mainstream media wouldn't touch - that the Kremlin has kompromat on Donald Trump through his ties to pedophile sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and this explains his tepid support for Ukraine - is actually true.

NEW: Jeffrey Epstein said in emails that he had been advising the Russian government on how to deal with Donald Trump, one of several cases in which he wielded his connections to try to influence the course of foreign affairs. w @nahaltoosi

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed
