Lots of Epstein dialogue, but no revelations.

 NOT ONE INSIDER HAS DARED TO SPILL THE BEANS

IT APPEARS THE POWER BEHIND EPSTEIN IS STILL POWERFUL

We continuously hear debates and email snippets about what was going on with Epstein's empire of global elite leaders. We understand that most all the leaders in politics, science and finance had connections with Epstein. Most of the scrutiny is focused on young women and sex, but little is focused on what was this empire and what was its purpose?. Many assume blackmail, but not one person, in all these years has admitted to being compromised by Epstein. While we hear of accusations of rape etc., it seems that the victims consented to what was going on. While we hear much about under age, I have yet to see a list of the ages of these victims, of course without their identities. 

There are strong indications that Epstein and Maxwell had connections to numerous intelligence organizations, mostly Mossad and Mi6, it can only be assumed that the CIA and FBI knew what was going on with Epstein.

What is becoming obvious is that all the participants were willing and enthusiastic participants and not one has ever yet conveyed their personnel experiences and interactions with this elite Club. What did they gain by this networking? Why were they there? We are being distracted by the allegations that all this was about sex, I suspect that the powers behind Epstein still retain that power and most likely the networking is still going on, but much more descreatly.

We have yet to hear from the technicians who operated all the video and audio equipment.  It seems the only testimony is by women who were used as entertainment for these meetings. No one, as far as I have heard, has revealed what  these meetings were about and of course who financed all this.  Then we hear the feeble attempt to claim it was financed by Russian intelligence, another weak attempt at discraction. 

I suspect that we are being entertained by a dog and pony show about sex, always something that will captivate the interest of the masses. I doubt that there any serious attempts, even by those who claim to be the maverick investigators, to ever reveal what was and still is the workings of this elite club of global leaders.

Bibi's coming, Will it now be war?

BIBI'S VISITS USUALLY PRECEDE VIOLENT ACTION 

IS HE COMING TO ENCOURAGE OR FOR SAFETY?

Bibi Netanyahu is coming to Washington tomorrow, his appearance in Washington usually indicates that some sort of violent action in about to transpire in the middle east. One must wonder why a phone call would not suffice or other secure communications, always a personal appearance.  Is Trump recording all these private meetings for posterity? never a leak of these meetings.

Some speculate that Bibi is concerned that Trump is going to make a deal with Iran concerning nuclear enrichment that allows them electric generation or other peaceful enrichment, but promises of no nuclear weapons. This has been the narrative for decades, "no nuclear weapons for Iran". It has been the enduring litany that Iran is within days of having nuclear weapons and if they obtain them they will immediately eradicate Israel and then the United States. After all, Iranians are by nature religious fanatics that need to be marginalized or even eradicated if possible. There is lots of evidence that Iran discontinued their weapons program in 2003, primarily because their wacko religious leader believes nuclear weapons are immoral, astonishing that any leader in todays world would believe that anything is immoral.

In their first negotiations the goal was to guarantee no nuclear weapons, but allowed for the enrichment for electric power and other uses, Iran agreed, but Bibi nixed the plan insisting that Iran could not engage in any nuclear enrichment, which everyone understood was impossible for Iran to accept. Then after Israel attacked Iran in June 2025 and assassinated their scientists and political leaders, Iran had the audacity to inflict serious damage on Israel with missile attacks. That has now caused Bibi to insist that Iran cannot have a conventional missile program either. It is not acceptable that a nation of 90 million should have any deterrence against a nation of 9 million. 

So, tomorrow we will see what's up, Trump has been reluctant to engage in war with Iran, mostly for practical reasons that U.S. forces will likely suffer some casualties or even many casualties, Israel will be hit hard with a missile response from Iran, that will encourage escalation and the world oil supply will be effected causing a world economic crisis. So far, Trump has evaded this war against pressur from the cheer leaders for war in the Senate, and Israel, who believe in the invincibility of U.S. and Israeli military power, a theory that will be tested if war ensues.

Then again the decision for war may have already been made and Bibi is just here to join his family in safety until their theories are tested.

NFL can't help being political.

 SPANISH HALF TIME SHOW

IS THE NFL NOW AN INTERNATIONAL SPORT?

Until last night, like many of the entertainers on Super Bowl half time shows, I never heard of Bad Bunny.  One has to wonder what is going on with the organizers of these half time shows, or their sponsors, they just cant help using these shows to make political statements.

First off, it seemed the whole show was in Spanish, without any appropriate translation at the bottom. I guess if you are not Spanish speaking this show was not aimed at you. Do they really think that they made a positive effect on any dialogue about immigration or was it just an opportunity to stick a thumb in the eye of non Spanish speaking watchers, who I assume was the vast majority. Was this all about attempting to provoke Trump, is that what the Super Bowl is now about? 

It also appeared that the majority of adds featured non white actors. In fact many had no white actors at all. Is the viewership of the super bowl no made up of a majority of nonwhites? Does this really aid in inclusion or encourage division?

So, it does prove that WOKE politics is not dead and much of the major media is still in some sort of a biased anti-American mind set. A mind set that believes that the world has a new home in America, if they choose, with all the privileges of citizenship, but requires citizens to provide the funding or assume the debt required to sustain all these inhabitants. They have a dream of a world without borders, without rules or consequences, as long as someone else is paying. It might be good idea for citizens to take note of these advertisers and scrub them from the list of products or services they purchase. 

I suspect this type of messaging will not have a positive effect on any dialogue about immigration, it just reinforces the need for escalated enforcement of immigration law.

What is the plan for Cuba?

 IF YOU BREAK IT, YOU WILL NEED TO FIX IT

LIKELY TO BE A U.S. DEPENDENT

It is seems there is much anticipation of the end of present Cuban government. The embargo surrounding Cuba has left the island without reliable electric and even a scarcity of food. Proponents believe that the present government cannot last much longer. One has to ask the questions, how is this going to be accomplished and who is going to take over politically in Cuba?

I don't see a viable opposition political movement ready to step in, if the present government falls. I doubt that the population of real Cubans, that is the Cubans who live there now and have lived under the present system, are the same culturally as the Cubans of pre 1960. They have been born and raised under a socialist dictatorship and culturally are far removed from their ancestors in Miami. I suspect very few pre-1960 Cubans are still alive. 

I recall in 1959 listening to my radio as I went to bed of Castro marching into Havana and Batista fleeing to the Dominican republic and then to Spain. I also recall the rejoicing in the U.S. with parades of excitement in New York city. Of course I have no idea what was behind the rise of Castro, one must believe that the CIA knew who Castro was and likely supported his revolution. They has already engineered regime changes in Guatemala and Iran. One has to wonder where they played by Castro or did their agreement go bad.

After 66 years of the present government, which seems to be much more laid back than under the original revolutionaries, the island, from watching travel documentaries, appears to be run down in every way and the population seems also to be very laid back, living the life hoped for by many U.S. socialists. One has to wonder if these real Cubans really want to be saved by the U.S. 

Saving Cuba, of course has been a dream for many U.S. politicians and former Cubans whose ancestors once lived there. Most of the Miami Cubans have never set foot in Cuba.

Again, the question is, who is going to run Cuba in the future? Will it be real Cubans or transplants from Miami? What will happen if Cubans receive the right to vote and then vote for people not acceptable to the U.S. government? Will it be back to sanctions and threats? Do the Cubans of today want their island to be filled with Casinos and resorts or offshore investment havens? Maybe they do, I really have no idea, but has anyone asked them?

No matter what, Cuba has no oil, just sugar and Cigars, both out of favor in the 21st century. Cuba is going to need billions of investment in infrastructure without the means to provide that, so it will be the responsibility of the U.S. to provide that investment, probably for decades. Cuba has primarily been dependent on the Soviet Union and then Venezuela, so it may be the U.S. turn to take over that responsibility. After all, we are the richest country in the world, and saving the Cubans is worth the cost. 

Last nuclear limitation treaty expires.

 ARE THESE DECISIONS BASED ON FALSE ASSUMPTIONS?

NO LIMITS, NO TRANSPARENCY, COLD WAR 2

Yesterday, the strategic nuclear arms treaty expired, it had been in place since 1991. Originally this treaty limited Nuclear warheads to 6000, then reduced them to 1550 in 2010. It was the last remaining treaty that came about after the breakup of the Soviet Union, All the treaties were ended by the United States.

Trump ended the intermediate range arms treaty in his first term. It was ended, with the advise of John Bolton in the supposed hope of eventually including China in the treaty. Other treaties that have expired is one that limited conventional arms in Europe and one that allowed open flights over each others territory to insure compliance.

Putin has proposed several time that Russia was willing to extend the current treaty for 1 year. His proposals were never responded to by Trump or any of his administration.  

There are indications that this administration is being advised that a new cold war will force Russia into economic problems by not being able to compete in an arms race with the United States. This philosophy is based on the prevailing narrative that the Soviet Union collapsed because it could not keep up with arms spending by the United States, ironically the nation with a $39 trillion debt and a marginal manufacturing base. Of course, a new arms race will be very profitable for those who live by war, death and destruction.

Policies based on false intelligence and false assumptions which usually fail can also be very destructive. In this case it sends the message to the world, that it can expect little efforts at real peace treaties, and only that prevailing in military power will disputes be settled. 

The assumption that military spending brought about the end of the Soviet Union rather than a realization by the leaders of that country that Communism or Socialism was a dead end street and made the appropriate but painful effort to change their economic and political polices. An example that would serve most western nations well, as they flounder in an attempt to preserve their former status.

Looks like ICE is preparing for eastern Pa.

 WILL LARGE TASKFORCE SOON BE ACTIVE IN EASTEN PA.

SEVERAL NEW FACILITES TO AID IN DEPORTATION

ICE must be planning on upping the anti on immigration enforcement in Eastern Pa. The new facility they just purchased in Berks county can only be used when a enhanced presence comes to eastern Pa. It could be expected that this facility could also be used for processing migrants from New Jersey and New York. 

At present it seems most ICE activities have been in the Midwest and West coast, a least by large numbers of  organized forces. While ICE activities are ongoing all over the country, including in eastern Pa., it does appear that large organized efforts are in the process of moving to specific areas and then when all the low hanging or easy to find suspects are rounded up, then moving on to other high priority places. 

While many believe that bad publicity and high profile incidents will slow enforcement, that probably is not the case. As time goes on and policies are perfected we can assume that they have a long list of potential places for high propriety focus. It seems they are taking particular interest in voter roles as a means of choosing those priorities. We can assume there are also other ways of them prioritizing their efforts.

In Pa. most of the law enforcement agencies have good communications with ICE and alert them when they apprehend illegal migrants. We can assume that ICE task forces will soon identify were that is not case and make their decisions accordingly.

Areas with political obstruction may be the places that they feel a task force approach is needed.

It may be the case that areas were politicians make the most effort to protect illegal migrants will be placed on the priority list for high profile task force enforcement. They may be better served to at least give the appearance of cooperation rather than making transparent challenges.

  

Are Epstein files now becoming another propaganda tool.

 DOES ANYONE REALLY BELIEVE THAT EPSTEIN WAS FINANCED BY RUSSIA?

INTENTIONALLY DISCREDITING EVERYTHING

The latest headline on Drudge report is that Epstein was financed by the KGB. Drudge once a source of valid revelations has long been just another purveyor of disinformation. Their latest attempt to shift the power behind Epstein to Russia and the KGB, an organization that hasn't existed since 1991, when it was disbanded, is as outrageous and simply a desperate attempt to hide and shift the attention away from what is now common knowledge. Epstein was an agent for Mossad and likely British intelligence.

This ham fisted attempt is likely to now put into question the validity of much that will now be released or is it being manufactured in present time. Can we soon be told that Iran, China and Venezuela are also coconspirators in the Epstein saga. I suppose many would feel better if that was the case.

The KGB was disbanded in 1991 after organizing a coup in Moscow, it was replaced by the FSB in 1995 after a thorough cleansing, something that it appears needs to be done in most of the western intelligence agencies. It seems their function is no longer to provide real time intelligence of leadership to make informed decisions but to assist in an agenda either self promoted or orchestrated by others.

Epstein had contacts with every nation, and may have contacts in Russia, but common sense tells us in that time period Russia was in the process of survival and renewal and hardly had the resources to support honey pot schemes in the western world, especially with operatives that had obvious ties to Israeli and British intelligence.

One possibility is that many Russian children were adopted by westerners in that time period and some may have seen this as an opportunity to acquire unfortunate children for their devious purposes. That is a very real possibility that should be investigated.
