Ed Opperman joined me for a special broadcast. We talked about the new legal strategy by Steven Hoffenberg that could unravel the mystery of Jeffrey Epstein’s financial empire. Ed talked about his exclusive interview with Hoffenberg, and the unique way Hoffenberg is using his court mandated financial restitution against Epstein’s company Southern Trust. We also touched on the use of the Virgin Islands, potential financial whistleblowers, and Darren Indyke.
This week I started off the first hour by ranting about the media coverage the Epstein Saga has received in the alternative and mainstream. I talked about the way we are deliberately being distracted with stories that either go nowhere or push extremist ideologies. I focused particular attention on the photo of Ghislane Maxwell at In-N-Out Burger which appears to have either staged or photoshopped. The troubling theory describing Epstein as part of the global Zionist conspiracy is discussed. I also took calls from listeners.
In the second hour Robbie Martin joined me to continue and expand this conversation. We looked at the way the conspiracy culture has approached this story. Robbie and I discussed the possibility that what we are seeing now is a limited hangout, designed to control the narrative and ensure that those involved are protected. We talked about why it took so long for the FBI to raid Epstein’s house in the Virgin Islands and if that was designed to ensure that information was destroyed. Later Robbie talked about his theory that Donald Trump may have been involved in his own blackmail operation through the use of his hotels. We finished off the conversation with a look at how Trump has utilized Qanon in the past months, becoming an active participant in the cult like group.
Freelance journalist Marlon Ettinger joined me for a special emergency broadcast to discuss the latest developments in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Marlon started by talking about his experience down at the court house on Monday July 8th when Epstein pleaded not guilty. Marlon discussed talking with David Boise and Brad Edwards, and the insights they offered into the recent indictment. Marlon also touched on his confrontation with Mike Cernovich. Later we discussed the recent resignation of Alex Acosta. Marlon and I also touched on the recent reporting about Epstein’s time as a teach in Dalton in the mid 1970’s. We also broke down some of the important strands that have emerged is recent days due to the SDNY indictment. We focused on the the issue of blackmail and the possibility that the FBI now possess video evidence of individuals Epstein has compromised. We closed by touching on the allegations that Epstein also made two large cash payments to co-conspirators after the Miami Herald series came out. Other topics discussed included: Michael Wolff, falling out with Trump, and Epstein’s time in Paris.
On this solo episode I discuss two major geopolitical situations and their possible impact in the region and on the US. I begin by breaking down the political crisis that is unfolding in Afghanistan with Vice President Abdul Rashid Dostum and the allegations that he ordered the beating and rape of a political rival. I explain the back story of these allegations and how they have presented a serious political challenge for Afghan President Ghani these past several months. I also discuss Dostum’s attempts to return to Afghanistan from Turkey, and his new political alliance with the power provincial governor, Mohammad Atta Noor. Later I offer up my own analysis as to how Trump may or may not handle this particular geopolitical situation, while also focusing on the ongoing campaign of violence being perpetrated by the Taliban.
In the second hour I focus on Afghanistan’s next door neighbor Pakistan and the political crisis that it is facing. I explain how the Panama Papers are very close to ousting Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. I also look at how this is similar in someways to the continuous scandals involving Trump and his immediate family. I attempt to analysis how both these geopolitical situations will be a serious test of the Trump administration and why we should pay more attention to foreign affairs.
