One Nation Under Blackmail: The Sordid Union Between Intelligence and Crime that Gave Rise to Jeffrey Epstein, VOL.2 by Whitney Alyse Webb https://www.amazon.com/One-Nation-Under-Blackmail-Intelligen...
These books were just recently published. If you want your mind blown, go to YouTube and search for Whitney Webb. Watch any of the many "long form" interviews she has done on her publicity tour (like the link above).
There is a long, tangled and sordid relationship between organized crime and the American security state. Epstein was an intelligence asset committing both sexual crimes and financial crimes, benefiting himself and his "friends" in the intelligence community. The FBI has his "little black book" and no doubt collections of his videos of prominent politicians and business leaders; these "resources" are being used by a cadre of elites who control the American security state to advance their own interests.
Some interesting tidbits:
Ghislaine Maxwell's father, Robert Maxwell was an asset for both British intelligence and Mossad (both of course have a close relationship with the American security state).
Donald Barr, father of two time Attorney General (Bush senior and Trump) William Barr, had deep ties into the intelligence community. As headmaster at the Dalton School he ran a program in the 1970s for the NSA to recruit promising talent for the intelligence community.
The Dalton School is a private, coeducational college preparatory school in New York City and a member of both the Ivy Preparatory School League and the New York Interschool. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalton_School
During his time as Dalton's headmaster, Barr had a role in hiring future financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as a math teacher despite the fact that Epstein (who graduated from high school at the age of 16 and secured a full scholarship to Cooper Union) had failed to complete his degree and was only 21 years old at the time. [Also,] In 1973, Barr published Space Relations, a science fiction novel about a planet ruled by oligarchs who engage in child sex slavery. It has been noted that the plot of the novel anticipates the crimes of Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Barr
...and there is so much more.
Whitney Webb makes a very good case that we should ignore the "left/right", "red/blue" political theater; it truly is just theater created by a cadre of elites to keep us distracted while they increase their power and control. This cadre of elites controls both political parties through bribery and blackmail. The real danger is not from the left or right, the real danger is a "neo-feudalism" this cadre of elites is attempting to impose. "Catastrophic Climate Change" is a significant part of this theater to distract people from the real environmental crimes this cadre of elites is committing.
The initial reviews on Amazon highlight another point: Whitney Webb has meticulously documented her references; ALL of which come from public sources. She just links everything together. Why hasn't the mainstream media brought this information to light? There is only one answer to that question: the mainstream media is controlled by this cadre of elites.
We are getting close to a "tipping point" where the need for a new political party will become evident to all thinking, decent people.
