We have to ask ourselves why Epstein wanted secret British govt documents. [View all]

What would he do with such valuable assets?

I don't believe he wanted them, any more than Trump needed the secret documents he stole on his way out the door in 2021, but I know of someone who would, and he'd pay an obscene amount of money for them. Like private island money.

I was blown away at the incredible paper trail that followed Epstein. It seems every keystroke, email, and phone call was recorded, and tons of pictures taken, millions of documents! Could there be another huge vault of docs, videos, and photos showing heads of state and billionaire power brokers in compromising situations on Epstein Island at The Kremlin? If there are two things that Epstein lusted for it was young girls, and money. Lots of money, and he had plenty of both. The island was the perfect place to be wired for sound and video. He just had to lure the right people to the "party".

Can Putin be holding a silent Sword of Damocles over the heads of politicians, bankers, and investors to assure their cooperation in reassembling the one time glorious Soviet Union? If so, the KGB chess master has quietly declared mate and is awaiting our final move.
