INTERVIEW: Corrupt, filthy, degenerates


In this interview, Chris Hedges and George Galloway discuss a range of pressing political issues, focusing on the implications of the Epstein files and the potential for a US war with Iran. Here’s a breakdown of the key topics: 
 The Epstein Affair and Political Accountability (0:49-12:54): Trump's involvement: Hedges notes Trump's frequent mentions in the Epstein files, the extensive redactions by FBI agents, and the concerted effort to block their release. He highlights how the public release of these documents, despite redactions, has been "cataclysmic." (0:51-2:07) 
International vs. US impact: The speakers observe that the Epstein files have caused more political trouble in the UK and Norway than in the United States, which they attribute to a "democratic deficit" in the US where political leaders are less accountable. (2:07-4:37) Corruption across the political spectrum: Hedges and Galloway discuss how the files expose corruption among both Democratic and Republican figures, including former Senator George Mitchell and figures close to Kier Starmer in the UK. (3:47-6:17) 
Public perception and societal decay: They discuss how the releases confirm public suspicions that rulers are "filthy degenerates" (6:06) and express concern about the lack of public outrage in the US, given the widespread issue of sexual abuse. (6:21-8:50) Unreleased documents and potential for destruction: Hedges mentions that millions of documents, including videos from Epstein's mansion, remain unreleased, and that the Epstein scandal could potentially destroy Trump's political career due to the deeply personal impact of sexual abuse on his base. (7:12-10:00) Trump's Mental Acuity and US Political Landscape (10:00-12:54):
 Decline in mental state: Galloway and Hedges discuss Trump's apparent mental decline, citing an example of him mistakenly claiming to impose tariffs on Switzerland's prime minister (a position that doesn't exist in Switzerland). (10:00-10:59) Dangerous implications: They express concern about this decline, especially given the US military's global presence and the potential for an impulsive commander-in-chief to make dangerous decisions. (10:42-10:59) Dismantling the state: Hedges warns that even if Trump is not fully in control, powerful figures around him are "dismantling the state" and "eviscerating the most basic civil liberties," leading to an authoritarian or police state. (11:15-12:54) The Threat of War with Iran (12:58-18:22): 
  Netanyahu's influence: The discussion shifts to Netanyahu's frequent visits to the US, pressing for war with Iran, similar to his push for the war with Iraq. (13:03-14:08) Israeli policy of failed states: Hedges explains that Israel's policy is to create failed states in the region (Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Afghanistan) to increase its military dominance, seeing Iran as the last potent challenge. (13:44-14:05) Epstein's alleged Mossad links: Hedges suggests Epstein was "extremely close to the Israeli intelligence service" (14:33) and speculates whether Israel possesses compromising material on Trump. (14:50-15:03) Pentagon's opposition: Despite Israeli pressure, there is "heavy opposition" to a war with Iran within the American military establishment due to the potential for a costly "war of attrition" that Israel cannot endure. (15:20-16:14) Trump's reluctance: Hedges believes Trump is currently "leaning in the other direction" regarding war with Iran, supporting negotiations, but his inconsistency makes him unpredictable. (16:46-18:00) The Enigma of Jeffrey Epstein (18:39-22:33): His obscure rise: Both speakers express bewilderment at how Epstein, an uneducated individual with poor writing skills, rose to such importance and wealth, noting his involvement in various international affairs. (19:04-20:25) Exposing the global elite: Hedges concludes that the Epstein files reveal a "depraved, corrupt ruling global elite" (20:31) whose private lives are at odds with their public images. He states that as these elites are exposed globally, they are "rapidly imposing authoritarian states" to retain control. (21:12-22:33)

Epstein survivors speak out after Attorney General Pam Bondi hearing


This video features an interview with six survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse and two family members, who express their frustration and disappointment following Attorney General Pam Bondi's hearing on Capitol Hill (0:01). The survivors discuss their dissatisfaction with Bondi's handling of the Epstein files and her refusal to apologize for the Justice Department's actions. Key points from their conversation include: Lack of Accountability and Empathy (0:51): The survivors felt there was no integrity or humanity in the room, particularly noting Bondi's refusal to turn and face them during the hearing, which they describe as a continuation of their victimization. Failed Apology (4:26): While Bondi stated she was "deeply sorry for what any victim... has been through," the survivors emphasize that she did not apologize for the Department of Justice's (DOJ) role in the cover-up of Epstein's crimes or the mishandling of their information. Mishandling of Files and Lack of Trust (6:03): Survivors recount instances where their personal information, including addresses and names, was unredacted in released files, leading to a profound loss of faith in the DOJ. They feel manipulated and downplayed by the government. Call for Continued Investigation and Action (10:00): Despite Bondi's mention of "pending investigations," the survivors highlight a lack of concrete information and communication from the DOJ. They demand further investigation into other perpetrators, emphasizing the need to "follow the money" by subpoenaing flight and bank records. Virginia's Law and Future Hopes (30:22): A positive note is the announcement of "Virginia's Law," aimed at reforming the statute of limitations for sexual assault, which was a dream of Virginia Roberts, a prominent survivor. They hope this bipartisan effort will lead to real change and protect future generations. Distrust in the Justice System (32:11): Despite their continued advocacy, none of the survivors present trust the Department of Justice to pursue justice for them, advocating for women to be believed and for the creation of more trauma-informed spaces for survivors to come forward.

The video states that the survivors and family members feel the Justice Department is not taking accountability (0:13). Specifically, Charlene mentions that Pam Bondi, representing the DOJ, is "not taking at all any accountability" and is "not following any kind of transparency" (2:51 - 2:56). Additionally, Jess highlights that it is a "simple act to turn around and say I apologize for the the the terrible job our DOJ did" and that there wasn't "an adult in the room that could apologize for the damage done to children and and girls" (3:42 - 4:23). Maria also notes that Bondi apologized for what Jeffrey Epstein did but "couldn't apologize what she did to us what her department did to us" (9:20 - 9:28), suggesting a lack of accountability for their own actions, such as the improper redaction of names in the files (9:32 - 9:43). Theresa also implies a lack of accountability by stating that the DOJ is "yet again another deflection" and that they "knew what was happening ahead of time" regarding Ghislaine Maxwell's transfer, yet they refused to answer who signed off on it (21:10 - 22:24). Several speakers felt that Bondi's explanation about time constraints for redaction errors was a way to "deflect responsibility and almost trying to transfer all that shame and accountability to the American public" (17:48 - 17:57).

Benjamin Netanyahu SHOWS HIS HAND


The video, "Benjamin Netanyahu SHOWS HIS HAND," discusses Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's efforts to influence US policy regarding Iran, specifically pushing for a more aggressive stance beyond just nuclear capabilities to include Iran's ballistic missile and drone programs. Here's a breakdown of the key points: Netanyahu's Visit and Agenda (0:11-0:45): Netanyahu moved up his meeting with President Trump to personally present Israeli intelligence on Iran's ballistic missile and nuclear programs. The goal is to pressure the US to expand the focus of negotiations and demand more from Iran. Critique of Israel's Influence (0:49-2:02, 2:41-3:16): The hosts argue that Israel's intelligence on Iran is worthless and that Iran's missile capabilities pose no threat to the United States. They assert that any US military engagement with Iran would be "at the behest of Israel" and that Israel is the "biggest threat to peace in the Middle East" (3:52). Escalating Demands on Iran (6:00-7:27, 9:00-9:26): Initially, Israel's concern was Iran's nuclear weapons. After the JCPOA (Iran nuclear deal) was ripped up by Trump in 2018, Israel "moved the goalposts" to include ballistic missiles. The video then mentions a new demand that includes drones, making it seem like the West is not negotiating in good faith. US Military Posturing (4:17-4:52): Trump boasted about sending a "massive flotilla" and a second carrier strike group to the Middle East, which the hosts interpret as preparation for war with Iran. The Inevitability of War and Israel's End Goal (10:47-11:57): The hosts believe war with Iran is inevitable due to Israel's influence on US politicians. They cite Colonel Douglas McGregor, who suggests that after Iran, Israel's ultimate goal is "Jewish supremacy in the region" and that Turkey would be the next target. US as Israel's "ATM Machine" (12:53-13:37): The video concludes by stating that Israel would not exist without US financial and military support, portraying the US as being perpetually at war on Israel's behalf, leading to increased national debt and highlighting the corruption of US politicians.

BREAKING NEWS: Massie And Bondi Have Shocking Fight As He Accuses Her Of Epstein Files 'Cover-Up'


The video features a heated exchange between Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and AG Pam Bondi during a House Judiciary Committee hearing (0:00). Massie accuses the Department of Justice (DOJ) of failing to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, citing several instances of alleged cover-ups and improper redactions. Massie highlights three main points: Release of victim's names (0:22-0:56): Massie claims the DOJ improperly released an email containing a list of names not to be released, exposing survivors and causing them distress. He points out that the DOJ redacted a lawyer's name but left the survivors' names visible. Redaction of Les Wexner's name (0:57-1:44): Massie reveals that Les Wexner, an alleged co-conspirator in child sex trafficking, was fully redacted from a document until Massie forced its release. He emphasizes that Wexner was implicated in child sex trafficking, not just tax evasion or money laundering. Over-redaction of FD302 documents (1:47-2:31): Massie states that the DOJ is holding onto and over-redacting FD302 documents, which contain the names of implicated men. He also notes that some files have been pulled from the website, making them inaccessible. Massie repeatedly questions Bondi about accountability within the DOJ (2:32-2:55), asking who is responsible for these failures. Bondi attempts to respond (2:56-3:11), stating that Wexner's name was added back within 40 minutes of Massie "catching" the error. The exchange becomes contentious as Massie reclaims his time (3:12-3:43), accusing Bondi of a cover-up (4:40-4:59). Bondi then accuses Massie of having "Trump derangement syndrome" and being a "failed politician" (4:02-4:06), and then attempts to redirect the conversation to previous administrations (4:47-4:59). The argument continues with Massie pressing for answers on the DOJ's decision regarding Wexner's prosecution (5:01-5:24). Bondi avoids answering directly, instead accusing Massie of being a hypocrite for voting against a ban on deepfake AI porn (5:27-5:39). The chairman intervenes as Massie's time expires (5:41). Massie then submits several documents for unanimous consent, including redacted 302 forms, a witness statement implicating Les Wexner, an article about the DOJ releasing nude photos of victims, a letter from AG Bondi, and a document listing 17 individuals who resigned due to the Epstein files (5:55-6:49).

Rep. Moskowitz: Trump's name appears more in the Epstein files than God in the Bible


In this video, Representative Jared Moskowitz addresses Attorney General Pam Bondi during a hearing on Capitol Hill (0:00). He starts by thanking Bondi for her past assistance with school safety legislation after the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting and for her department's prosecution of an individual who threatened him (0:14-0:55). Moskowitz then shifts to heavily criticize the Trump administration's handling of the Epstein files, highlighting a lack of transparency and alleged efforts to obstruct their release (1:00-2:25). He mentions several points: 
 The initial promise of releasing the files followed by delays and denials of a "list" (1:07). The President's alleged dismissal of the Epstein matter as a "hoax" and opposition to the file's release (1:17). Congressional efforts to force the release of the files despite Republican resistance (2:25-2:44). Contradictions regarding the extent of Epstein's trafficking ring and the number of times Donald Trump's name appears in the files (2:56-3:36). He cites a quote suggesting Epstein was a "greatest black mailer" (4:00) and references a disputed claim about Donald Trump kicking Epstein out of his club (4:23). Moskowitz concludes by asking Bondi to reveal any "oppo" (opposition research) prepared on him, in a playful but pointed challenge (4:37). Bondi responds by criticizing Moskowitz for mocking the Bible (4:57).

Raskin slams Bondi: 'You're running a massive Epstein cover-up right out of the DOJ'


In this video, Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD), Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, delivers an opening statement at Attorney General Pam Bondi's hearing, accusing her of a "massive Epstein cover-up" (1:24). He highlights several key issues: Neglect of Victims (1:02): Raskin criticizes Bondi for not meeting with Jeffrey Epstein's victims and for siding with perpetrators over victims in cases like the Epstein human trafficking ring and governmental violence in Minneapolis. He introduces several survivors present at the hearing, emphasizing their demand for truth and accountability (0:19-0:59). Epstein Files Cover-Up (1:24): Raskin alleges that Bondi has withheld millions of documents related to the Epstein case, redacted names of abusers while exposing victims' identities, and took down a key prosecution memo. He describes this as "staggering incompetence, cold indifference, and jaded cruelty" (2:48-3:08). Coddling of Perpetrators (4:04): Raskin claims that Bondi moved Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted sex trafficker, to a minimum-security prison with "five-star treatment" (3:33-3:41) after her lawyer met with her, allegedly to ensure she wouldn't implicate Donald Trump (3:56-4:01). Politically Motivated Prosecutions (5:23): Raskin accuses Bondi of turning the Department of Justice into "Trump's instrument of revenge" (5:25-5:28), initiating baseless investigations against political opponents, and replacing qualified prosecutors with "counterfeit stooges" (5:55-5:57). He cites examples of DOJ lawyers resigning due to refusal to comply with unlawful orders (6:17-6:58) and grand juries rejecting politically motivated indictments (7:38-8:05). Lying to Courts (8:32): Raskin states that DOJ lawyers under Bondi have repeatedly been caught lying to federal judges, leading to judges expressing a lack of confidence in the government's truthfulness (8:46-9:00). Hearing Demeanor (9:03): Raskin warns Bondi not to evade questions or engage in personal attacks, referencing her previous performance in the Senate where she allegedly used a "burn book" of smears (9:47-9:56). He insists on direct answers within the limited five-minute questioning period.

'I believe you just lied under oath': Dem Rep. asks Bondi about Trump's mentions in Epstein files


The video captures a heated exchange between Rep. Ted Lieu and Attorney General Pam Bondi concerning the handling of the Epstein files and the lack of prosecution against individuals involved (0:00). Key points from the discussion include: Redaction of Victim Photos: Lieu points out that photos of Epstein's victims were redacted to protect them, in accordance with congressional law (0:12). Protection of Epstein's Clients: Lieu accuses Bondi of protecting Epstein's clients, specifically mentioning former Prince Andrew, and questions why the investigation was shut down (1:04). Lack of Accountability: Lieu criticizes various Attorney Generals, including Merrick Garland and Bill Barr, for failing to pursue the Epstein case adequately and highlights Bondi's current inaction (2:00). Donald Trump's Involvement: The discussion escalates as Lieu brings up Donald Trump's presence in the Epstein files, asking if underage girls were present at any parties Trump attended with Epstein (2:30). Allegations of Lying Under Oath: Lieu directly accuses Bondi of lying under oath when she states there is no evidence of Trump committing a crime. He presents a witness statement from someone who claims to have heard Trump in a compromising conversation with Epstein and met a girl who alleged rape by both Trump and Epstein (3:45). Call for Interviewing Witnesses: Lieu urges the Department of Justice to interview this witness immediately, emphasizing the severity of the allegations (4:30). Demand for Resignation: Lieu concludes by calling for Bondi's resignation, expressing shame over the lack of accountability for the men involved in Epstein's sex trafficking operation (4:54).

Key revelations include: Ghislaine Maxwell takes the Fifth Amendment (0:24): During a congressional deposition on February 9, 2026, Maxwell, serving a 20-year sentence for her role in Epstein's criminal network, refused to answer questions, invoking her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination (0:45). Tony Hawk denies island wedding rumors (1:52): After his name surfaced in the documents, skateboarding legend Tony Hawk clarified on Instagram that his weddings took place in California, Fiji, and Ireland, not on Epstein's island (2:15). He emphasized that a photographer at his 2006 Fiji wedding, coincidentally named Mark Epstein, had no relation to Jeffrey Epstein (2:23). Epstein dismisses victim in 2010 deposition video (2:40): A resurfaced 2010 deposition video shows Jeffrey Epstein deflecting questions about his 2008 guilty plea, even claiming he didn't know his accuser, despite records stating otherwise (2:50). RFK Jr. and Jeffrey Epstein looked for dinosaur bones (3:56): Newly unsealed documents reference a 2012 email between Epstein and Maxwell about a "dinosaur and fossil hunting trip" in the Dakotas, mentioning RFK Jr.'s presence (4:09). RFK Jr. has stated he was unaware of Epstein's crimes and described the outings as innocent fossil excursions (4:54). Norwegian Ambassador resigns (5:04): Norway's ambassador to Jordan and Iraq, Mona Juul, resigned after her past contacts with Epstein came under intense scrutiny, including reports that Epstein left money to her family in his will (5:12). Prince William and Kate Middleton are "deeply concerned" (5:55): The royal couple released a rare public statement expressing concern for Epstein's victims, amidst renewed scrutiny of Prince Andrew's association with Epstein (6:01). Prince Andrew shared UK trade files with Epstein (7:06): Emails appear to show Prince Andrew sending confidential British trade reports and official visit summaries to Jeffrey Epstein in 2010, shortly after receiving them from his office (7:27). Thames Valley Police are assessing whether sharing such information amounts to misconduct or breaches of confidentiality rules (8:28). Epstein survivors call for full release of files (8:57): In a powerful video released during the 2026 Super Bowl, multiple victims demanded the release of millions of government files that remain sealed and heavily redacted, urging Congress to keep the issue alive (9:03). They are pressuring the US Department of Justice to release all files, not just the fraction made public (9:46).

Here Are The NEWLY UNREDACTED NAMES From The Epstein Files!

 

This video discusses the recent unredaction of names from the Epstein files, thanks to the efforts of Congressmen Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie (0:00). These congressmen went to the Department of Justice (DOJ) and discovered that 70-80% of the files were still redacted, including the names of six wealthy and powerful men (0:07-0:33). After their intervention, the DOJ acknowledged their mistake and revealed these names. Here are the key points from the discussion: Newly Revealed Names (0:48): The video names the six individuals whose names were unredacted: Salvatore Nav'ora Zorab Mikolads Leapig Leonor Nicola Caputo Sultan Ahmed bin Soliam, CEO of Dubai Ports World Leslie Wexner, billionaire businessman and former Victoria's Secret CEO Sultan Ahmed bin Soliam (2:23): He is identified as the individual who sent a torture video to Epstein, which Epstein allegedly "loved" (2:44-2:55). The video notes that since he is not an American citizen, justice through the U.S. legal system might be limited (3:28). Salvatore Nurara (5:29): He was a former NYPD detective and one of Epstein's contacts in his "little black book." He was previously investigated in connection with an escort service, though unrelated to Epstein (5:38-6:03). Nicola Caputo (6:26): An Italian politician who now works in agriculture, his name appeared in records linked to Epstein from a 2009 New York Police Department list (6:35-6:42). Leslie Wexner (6:57): Congressman Thomas Massie publicly called out the DOJ for attempting to protect Wexner by redacting his name, a redaction that was later reversed after Massie's intervention (8:16-9:41). Congressional Pressure and Transparency (4:10): The video highlights the crucial role of Congress members like Ro Khanna, Thomas Massie, and Marjorie Taylor Greene in pressuring the DOJ to release the unredacted files, emphasizing their ability to create change despite bureaucracy (4:30-5:23). The video explains that congressional immunity protects members of Congress, like Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie, from lawsuits when they make statements while on duty, particularly on the House floor (20:27-21:26). This immunity allows them to: Name names and discuss sensitive information, such as the alleged co-conspirators in the Epstein files, without fear of litigation (20:27-20:33). Speak freely and be "fiery" about what's actually going on, as Thomas Massie is described when speaking on the House floor compared to cable news interviews (21:16-21:26). The speaker contrasts this with the situation for survivors, who would likely face lawsuits and financial ruin if they were to publicly name perpetrators (20:57-21:03). Reactions of Lawmakers to Unredacted Files (11:12): Lauren Boebert (11:39): The Congresswoman expressed strong agreement with the idea that those implicated should face consequences and that Ghislaine Maxwell should not receive clemency (12:08-12:26). Cynthia Lummis (13:34): The Senator initially "didn't care" about the Epstein case but changed her view after seeing the files, acknowledging it was "worth investigating" (13:42-14:03). Jamie Raskin (15:47): The Congressman stated that the files showed evidence of victims as young as nine years old (15:54-15:59). Immunity for Congress Members (20:27): The video explains that members of Congress are immune from lawsuits when making statements while on duty, such as on the House floor. This protection allows them to speak freely about issues like the Epstein files without fear of litigation (20:36-21:26), which is not the case for survivors who might be sued if they publicly name alleged perpetrators (18:24-18:31).

Steve Bannon Is ALL OVER The Epstein Files

 

The video discusses the latest revelations from the Epstein files, focusing on the close relationship between Jeffrey Epstein and Steve Bannon. Here's a breakdown of the key points: Steve Bannon's involvement (0:52): Ana Kasparian and comedian Tim Dillon discuss the shocking nature of Steve Bannon's close relationship with Epstein, especially since Bannon has been a vocal advocate for releasing the files. Epstein's advice to Bannon (1:40): The files reveal that Epstein advised Bannon on how to re-enter polite society and suggested that Bannon should focus on building a media platform for "protection." Media platform for protection (3:31): Epstein explicitly states that a for-profit media organization offers more protection and press rights compared to a non-profit. A year later, Bannon went on to host "War Room" on Real America's Voice. Epstein's sulfuric acid purchase (5:35): The video highlights a document showing Epstein purchased a massive amount of sulfuric acid on December 6, 2018, the same day the FBI launched an investigation into him. This raises suspicions about its intended use, possibly to dissolve biological material. Theories on the ruling class and evil (8:39): Tim Dillon speculates on the existence of evil within the highest echelons of society, questioning whether billionaires would resort to violence to protect their positions. He also touches on the "quasi-religious" belief systems and strange rituals, like those at Bohemian Grove, which he believes might not be just jokes. Strange codes in the files (12:06): The discussion shifts to peculiar references in the Epstein files, such as mentions of "pizza" and "jerky," which are speculated to be code words. The hosts suggest these could be indicative of disturbing practices, even questioning if it implies cannibalism.

Epstein files explained: Survivors, royals, politics and famous faces


The video provides a deep dive into the Epstein files, revealing a comprehensive picture of the disgraced pedophile and sex trafficker, his high-profile network, and the impact of the file release on survivors, royals, politicians, and other famous figures (0:00).

Key aspects covered in the video:

  • The Survivors: The files meticulously detail Epstein's actions, including lists of young victims, their ages, and graphic descriptions of abuse (1:18). Victims' journals, like one titled "Flights and Yachts of Horror," are also included (1:45). Survivors express a mix of renewed trauma and anger at the lack of protection and the Department of Justice's inadequate redaction of personal information (2:06).
  • The Royals: The video focuses on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, whose close ties to Epstein are further exposed (3:27). Emails reveal continued contact even after Epstein's conviction (4:15), and financial assistance from Epstein to Andrew and Sarah Ferguson (5:12). New emails show Sarah Ferguson taking her daughters to see Epstein shortly after his release from jail (6:28). This has led to increased demands for Andrew and Sarah to disclose more about their knowledge and involvement (7:33).
  • The Politics: The release of emails from 2009, showing Peter Mandelson leaking market-sensitive data from 10 Downing Street to Epstein, created a major political scandal (7:50). Mandelson was forced to retire from the House of Lords and is now under criminal investigation for misconduct in public office and leaking confidential government information (9:10-12:03). The current prime minister, Kier Starmer, is facing scrutiny for re-appointing Mandelson to a government role (12:18).
  • Famous Faces:
    • Elon Musk: Denies a close relationship with Epstein, despite emails attempting to arrange a visit to Epstein's island (13:15). He states he pushed for the files' release and wants those who committed crimes with Epstein to be prosecuted (13:33).
    • Richard Branson: His team confirmed two brief business meetings with Epstein on Necker Island in 2013 (14:06). Branson denounces Epstein's actions and supports justice for victims (14:49).
    • Bill Gates: Named in the files, though merely appearing does not imply wrongdoing (15:02). Epstein's self-sent emails accuse Gates of various sexual misconducts, which Gates denies, expressing regret for ever meeting Epstein (15:16). His ex-wife, Melinda Gates, believes Bill needs to answer questions about the allegations (15:55). Gates states he only had dinners with Epstein focused on philanthropy and never visited the island or met any women (16:39).
    • Bill and Hillary Clinton: Initially refused to testify before a congressional committee investigating Epstein but capitulated after facing potential criminal contempt charges (17:11). Bill Clinton will be the first former president to appear before Congress since 1983 (18:19). Bill Clinton admits that traveling on Epstein's plane "was not worth the years of questioning afterward" (18:50), while Hillary Clinton maintains she never met Epstein (18:46).
  • Ongoing Investigation: The video highlights that prosecutors repeatedly tried to uncover the full truth of Epstein's crimes, but he invoked constitutional amendments to refuse to answer questions during a 2010 civil lawsuit deposition (19:10). Despite Epstein's death in prison, victims continue to fight for transparency, believing the promise is not fully fulfilled (20:02). The investigation into the extensive database of files is ongoing (20:11).
  • The video states that the redactions in the Epstein files were problematic because they showed "extreme neglect to redact" (2:36). The speaker claims that "a 5-year-old could have done a better job redacting these files with color-coded crayons" (2:43).

    It was considered "an embarrassment" and "shocking" that the Department of Justice released survivors' personal information (2:48 - 3:05), despite their primary job being "to redact survivors names" (3:08 - 3:10).

Netanyahu Addresses Israel's Mentions In Epstein Files


The video discusses Benjamin Netanyahu's claim that Jeffrey Epstein did not work for Israel, but rather for former Prime Minister Ehud Barak, his political rival (0:00-1:18). The hosts, Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola, challenge this claim by presenting evidence of Epstein's connections to Israel and Netanyahu (1:19-5:55).

Here's a breakdown of the key points:

  • Epstein's Connections to Netanyahu (1:41-3:16): The hosts cite a 2023 Daily Beast report stating that Epstein connected Netanyahu to JP Morgan Chase executives in 2011. This meeting, potentially related to the Leviathan oil field in which JP Morgan invested in 2016, suggests a direct link between Epstein and Netanyahu, contradicting Netanyahu's denial.
  • Extensive Israeli Connections (4:41-5:55): The video lists numerous connections between Epstein and Israel, including:
    • Negotiating a security agreement between Israel and Mongolia (4:54).
    • Arranging a meeting between Ehud Barak and Vladimir Putin (4:57).
    • Establishing a security meeting between Israel and the Ivory Coast (5:01).
    • Repeatedly hosting an Israeli spy (5:05).
