The truth is just putting on its shoes... [View all]

While the lies travel around the world.

I just watched a very disturbing, but enlightening, report by Ben Meiselas, on MTN.

He was examining some recently released emails from the Epstein files. He was reporting on a different aspect of Epstein's activities, mostly his connections to foreign leaders and Epstein being the "money manager" for Vladimir Putin.

There was so much information, it was over-whelming.

Meiselas just reported what was in the emails and did not offer opinions or theories. But you were left to come to your own conclusions.

There were emails that pre-dated the 2016 elections. Epstein was communicating with the Prime Minister of Norway, with Putin, with Ehud Barak of Israel, with the U.A.E. leaders, with numerous oligarchs, and had discussions of how to get Bolsonaro in power in Brazil and how to influence other elections? They had an email about Brexit and how it would be the "beginning".

The emails left me feeling very naive about everything going on in the world and how our elected leaders, especially Republicans, were being used to destroy our country, and how Donald Trump was subject to blackmail, etc.

I was left with the impression that the entire plan was to destroy the dollar as the major currency in the world, destroy the Federal Reserve, and to create new digital currencies to take its place. It all seems like one gigantic conspiracy.

It is impossible to assimilate it all, but it is much more than just a child sex-ring.
