Trump Elected: The True MAGA Era Begins, Now What?

If Trump is using it to stay Israel's hand, even a bit, that is something that benefits the little people and so it's not so clear-cut a bad thing.
I agree, we'll have to wait and see. I'd like to believe it is a leverage he's attempting to use. The trouble is he's using it on Israel who probably have tons of other leverages on him, and if they removed this one from his arsenal, well... now they can go and do whatever and he can't use it any longer because he'd have to retract himself, and it's Israel, they can lie and say "ok yeah, if you get rid of Epstein, then we won't maybe misbehave" and then do it anyway.

So, I suppose what I am saying is that, I don't doubt Trump is trying his best and this may be a sign of that, it's not Trump I distrust, is the people he negotiates with.
 
What evidence is there that he's using this as leverage against Israel? It's also as likely he's using it as leverage for his own personal benefit, save his bacon from being assassinated again, protect his family or future interests after his presidency is over or as leverage for domestic political gain, pass Bills etc. I mean the use for this stuff as leverage is probably unlimited since the scope of who is compromised must be wide, across the political spectrum.

Is it ever morally "good" to use the trafficking and abuse of humans as leverage? Or is this just part and parcel of how the real world operates.

I'd also think he doesn't want the info released as it would damage the image of the US too much. The illusion of American exceptionalism must be kept intact.

Not only did Trump made a 180 degree on Epstein files, he also now promises to resume delivering weapons to Ukraine.

The United States will continue supplying weapons to Ukraine, President Donald Trump said on Monday, a week after the Pentagon halted some deliveries.

“We’re going to send some more weapons. We have to. They have to be able to defend themselves. They’re getting hit very hard now,” Trump told reporters during a dinner with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“Defensive weapons, primarily, but they’re getting hit very, very hard. So many people are dying in that mess,” he said, without elaborating.

Shortly after Trump’s remarks, Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell confirmed that the US will send “additional defensive weapons to Ukraine.” He added that the review of military shipments worldwide “remains in effect and is integral to our America First defense priorities.”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered a pause in deliveries last week, citing concerns about dwindling US stockpiles. “This decision was made to put America’s interests first following a DOD review of our nation’s military support and assistance to other countries across the globe,” White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly told the media at the time.

Parnell said the agency was reviewing all munitions shipments, not just those to Ukraine. “We can’t give weapons to everybody all around the world,” he said last Wednesday.

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry responded by summoning the US deputy chief of mission in Kiev, John Ginkel, and stating that “any delay or slowing down in supporting Ukraine’s defense capabilities would only encourage the aggressor.”

Trump, breaking from his predecessor Joe Biden, has resumed direct talks with Russia and is seeking to broker a ceasefire between Moscow and Kiev.

Russia has said that foreign weapons will not stop it from achieving victory. Last month, President Vladimir Putin reiterated that Moscow considers Western states supplying arms to Ukraine as “de facto direct participants in the conflict.”

By now we have learned to not take anything Trump says at face value. He changes his bombastic statements as quick as the weather changes. He may well have his reasons for doing so but that doesn't mean it is a good thing or a bad thing for that matter. So in some ways it might be best to treat it like a sitcom which after x number of episodes is becoming a bit predictable yet with new attempts to spice it up though it quickly fall flat.
The rest of the world is taking notice that the US is in the inevitable downward spiral into the abyss. The die has been cast.
 
Tucker follows up with another great interview, this time with Saagar Enjeti. I’m only an hour in myself but they are talking about the coverup, how everyone knows they are hiding stuff. Talking about how Epstein was essentially a foreign intelligence asset used to blackmail people. They talk a lot about the USA’s odd relationship with Israel and perhaps gets as close to pointing the finger as you can get without outright saying “Epstein was working for Israel”.


Tucker really seems to be doing great with his recent interviews and it has me concerned for his safety given all the people in power he has to be pissing off.
 
It's official, folks.

According to the official FBI and Justice Department investigation, Epstein not only did kill himself but also didn't keep a list of clients.



I know this is going to upset a lot of people and normally I would be right there with them, except for one thing: Trump.

Considering how recently Candace revealed that Trump asked her to stop reporting on Macron's husband, I think it's a fair to assume that Trump is also covering this Epstein thing up for a similar reason.

In the case of Macron, the idea was that if Candace stopped reporting then Macron would move forward with helping bring an end to the Ukraine conflict.

Obviously, that hasn't worked out so well and so Candace decided it was time to tell the world about it.

But in this case and considering who's involved, I'm guessing there's a similar dynamic but the situation it's revolving around is Iran.

These kinds of hush-ups are par for the course in politics and it's not really something that the little people would benefit from. However, considering the situation and the nature of the things involved I wouldn't be surprised if Trump finally came to a deal on the matter and that's why it's finally, after months of teases, come out with "nothing to see here".

If Trump is using it to stay Israel's hand, even a bit, that is something that benefits the little people and so it's not so clear-cut a bad thing.

This could be considered cope and I realize that's possible. But nevertheless I'm not so convinced this isn't a good thing, at least from the perspective of staying Israel's, and thereby the rest of the Deep State, hand at least a bit.

I don't see this playing over well with the MAGA base, though, and it's pretty poor timing considering what Musk accused Trump of and the fact that he started his own party.

Guess we'll have to wait and see if the deal sticks and what the outcome will be.

There's a theory going around that they purposely delivered the message of "there is no list" right after the disaster in Texas to move people's attention away from it. Because apparently there was cloud seeding happening the week prior and people were starting to question if that contributed or was done intentionally to cause the flooding.

Now people are more upset with the fact that there was a list and now there isn't a list instead of investigating what caused a major natural disaster that killed over a hundred people in a place that is prone to flooding.
 
Will the public allow this evil to be covered up again? How much pedo gaslighting can be tolerated?!

In addition to the above, there's this:

But really, Epstein killed himself, there's no client list, and Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted for a non-crime!

Meanwhile, taxpayers are forced to fund warmonger/genocidal Israel, dead set to destroy Iran with Trump's blessing/weapons along with Zelensky's Ukraine on USA $$$/weapons life support. So NOT what MAGA voted for!!!

I can only hope that "explosive revelations" as indicated by the Cs exposes the entire evil empire once and for all - sooner than later!
 
The new theory going around on X by MAGA influencers is that people from the administration are telling them that Trump wants the Epstein stuff shut down to prevent WW3 and achieve peace in the middle east. So basically "peace" built on the covering up of the Elites crimes, including abusing children & of course built upon the graves of the genocide in Gaza.

I can only hope that "explosive revelations" as indicated by the Cs exposes the entire evil empire once and for all - sooner than later!
This administration had the chance to reveal these crimes against humanity, a chance for redemption and possible real peace through a cleansing "revelatory" judicial process. However it looks like that won't happen so another form of cleansing will occur. Just look at the flooding across the US in recent days as a possible sign.
 
The "theories" being circulated, especially among "influencers", are mostly rationalizations and buffers. An ego that's been lied to and betrayed will come up with all sorts of mental gymnastics to justify what the eyes can see. Maybe, just maybe, there is no 56D chess game, maybe what you see is what you get. There will be resignation and apathy, and possibly surrender. There's no revolution through elections and slogans, maybe someday when the bellies are empty there could be something, if it's not too late.
 

US sanctions UN expert Francesca Albanese over Israel criticism​


The UN rapporteur appears to dismiss the Trump administration’s economic penalties, calling them ‘mafia-style intimidation techniques’.



UN report lists companies complicit in Israel’s ‘genocide’: Who are they?​

It is a mafia technique, indeed. Fortunately, more people are speaking out.


EXCLUSIVE: Top Economists Back Francesca Albanese's Report on the 'Economy of Genocide' in Gaza

Former Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis, French economist Thomas Piketty, and others join open letter supporting Albanese amid US calls to remove her as the UN special rapporteur on Palestine.

...
ECONOMISTS IN PRAISE OF SPECIAL RAPPORTEUR FRANCESCA ALBANESE’S REPORT TO THE UNITED NATIONS: ‘FROM ECONOMY OF OCCUPATION TO ECONOMY OF GENOCIDE’

History teaches us that economic interests have been key drivers and enablers of colonial enterprises and often of the genocides they perpetrated. The corporate sector has been intrinsic to colonialism since its inception, with corporations historically contributing to the violence against, the exploitation, and ultimately the dispossession, of Indigenous people and lands, a mode of domination known as racial colonial capitalism. Israel’s colonisation of the occupied Palestinian territories is no exception.

The recent report by Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, constitutes a major contribution to understanding the political economy of Israel’s Apartheid state, the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians and, now, their genocide. As such, we believe, it must be studied and debated widely and freely.

In view of the virulently hostile and indeed intimidating letter from the US government to the UN Secretary General demanding the dismissal of Ms Albanese and the quashing of her excellent report, we felt the need to express our strong support for Ms Albanese and to encourage the UN to dismiss the shrill demands of the US and Israeli governments. (Do please read the letter, US government felt offended)

Following a well-trodden path of genocide denial and of bullying anyone who challenges the right of the colonial power to dispossess Indigenous peoples, the US and Israeli governments, with most European governments too timid to take a stance, demand that the international community turn a blind eye to the ongoing genocide and, in particular, to the key role that multinational and national corporations are playing in maintaining the Apartheid regime and enabling the subsequent genocide.

As economists we feel the duty to highlight three key findings that Ms Albanese’s report unveils with clarity and precision.

First, occupation and genocide are highly lucrative for conglomerates. These include not only the usual arms and ‘defence’ big businesses (e.g., Lockheed-Martin, the primary maker of the F35s, ELBIT, Israel’s own arms manufacturer, and Palantir, the software company whose algorithms have most likely been crucial in the selection of ‘targets’ across Gaza) but also household brand names (e.g., Caterpillar, BNP Paribas, Barclays, Allianz, Chevron, BP, Petrobas, A.P. Moller-Maersk A/S). As Israel’s defence budget doubled, with the active support of the US government, it crowded in large ‘investments’ into Israel’s killing machine across this international network of complicit conglomerates in which thousands of Israeli companies are intertwined with US, European, Korean and even a Brazilian mega-corporation. This explains why Israeli equities rose by 161% at a time of falling demand, production and consumer confidence.

The second finding in Ms Albanese’s report that deserves extensive study is that the Palestinian territories Israel occupies have functioned as Big Tech’s ideal laboratory and testing ground – a function that the transition from occupation to genocide has only heightened. No country, for instance, has given as much access to a population’s biometric data as Israel has given to IBM. Since 7th October 2023, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet and Palantir have been expanding their cloud capital services at a breathtaking pace. Face recognition software, target selection algorithms and automated execution systems are being tested in real time, at will, and with fewer ethical constraints than in the case of experiments on laboratory rats. Big Tech could not be happier!

The third key finding is that top US and European universities are financially dependent on remaining wedded to Israel’s Apartheid and permanent occupation/conflict political economy. Many top US and EU institutions will face serious financial difficulties if they were to stop backing Israel’s genocide. Ms Albanese’s report must be commended for drawing this sordid dependency of stellar Western universities and research institutions (including the Technical University of Munich, MIT Labs, the University of Edinburgh among others). The peoples of Europe and America have a right to know that some of their most cherished academic institutions are financially reliant on helping Israel reproduce its political economy of occupation and genocide.

In a few years, almost everyone will claim they opposed this genocide. But it is now that people of good conscience need to take a stand. As economists we stand, today, with Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur under attack by the US and Israeli governments because her recent report throws indescribably important light on the political economy of Israel’s occupation and genocide.

From SONAR 21 - Larry C. Johnson:

Although Donald Trump and Pam Bondi insist that there is no Epstein Client List… there is a list and it is reproduced above with the permission of its author, Ryan Dawson. Ryan compiled the list the old-fashioned way… he combed through court transcripts and charging documents. He only put names on the list if the victims of Epstein’s pedophilia enterprise identified or named a particular individual. As you peruse the list you will notice that there are some very wealthy, powerful individuals named. Not one of them has brought a libel or slander legal action against Ryan. If he was posting false material, he would have been a certain target of lawsuits.

A short video where Ryan explains his process in article.

So why has Donald Trump broken his promise to publish the list? I think there are two reasons — neither mutually exclusive. First, Donald Trump probably paid no attention to Ryan’s work and was never familiar with the list. Once he signed the executive order to publish the Epstein file, he was then briefed on the actual names and realized that many of them are major donors to his campaign, e.g., Jamie Dimon, Robert Kraft. While there are several names on that list who are confirmed anti-Trumpers, there are others who are friends.

Second, and in my opinion a more important consideration, is that the full Epstein file would expose a foreign intelligence blackmail operation that implicates the Mossad and the CIA. Alexander Acosta, the former Secretary of Labor for Donald Trump, said he was told that Jeffrey Epstein had ties to intelligence. During the controversy surrounding his handling of Epstein’s 2008 plea deal as a US attorney, Acosta reportedly told Trump administration officials that he had been informed Epstein “belonged to intelligence,” and that this was a reason for the unusually lenient plea agreement. It would not surprise me that Bibi Netanyahu asked Trump to pull the plug on releasing the material. Did Trump get something in return from Bibi, such as agreeing to a ceasefire? We will find out in the coming days.

While Trump may think he can smooth this over with his MAGA base, I think that he has done serious damage to his Presidency by embracing the lie that, “there is no list.”

More floods, more tornadoes, more earthquakes? Just keep going along with the ever increasing blatant lies.

EDIT: Brace Yourself! More Than 400 Earthquakes Just Shook Mt. Rainier In Washington State And More Than 1,300 Earthquakes Just Rattled Japan

Mystery Solved! Missing Minute Shows Aliens Abducting Epstein
White House sources announced this morning that the Jeffrey Epstein mystery has been solved, and that everyone can go back to doing whatever they were doing before they learned that most American leaders, including President Trump, are blackmailed pedophiles.

In a joint press conference with President Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed that the “missing minute” from the Epstein prison surveillance video has been found, and that it shows aliens abducting Jeffrey Epstein. “Unfortunately the ‘missing minute’ has been given the highest possible classification by MJ12, so we can’t show it to you,” Bondi explained. “But I’ve seen it, just like I saw the Epstein client list before the men-in-black zapped it and altered the timeline to ensure that such a list never existed.”

Orrr . . . maybe the dog ate it! 🐶

If that's the strategy, it's lame. First, because the Israelis may tell him whatever story or that they agree to this or that, but ultimately they will do what they think is best for themselves - and that most certainly includes a war that they trust the US will be dragged into, and hope will destroy Iran the same way as Irak, Libya and Syria, as well as taking over Gaza by force and genocide.

Second, because he losses a lot of support and credibility by so blatantly lying about 'the list' and looking so subservient to Israel - so much so that I'm starting to doubt he'll even make it to the end of this term.

And finally, because what good is a strategy if it consists of behaving exactly as the previous corrupt governments did? What actual difference does it make if he is bombastic and a showman or 'has a plan' but the outcome is the same? Like mkrnhr said, maybe there's no 5D chess and what you see is what you get.

We've given him plenty of benefit of the doubt, I think. Perhaps he mostly had good intentions but the fact is that the situation is too much for him and the people who manipulate him outsmart him by far. He just didn't have enough knowledge and now he is up to his ears in 'the swamp'.
