Dear Colleagues and Friends of CEIMSA,
Years ago, when I was steeped in adolescent culture at a South Texas high school, I learned with my peers that some people have been cursed with the “sadim touch,” which causes everything they touch to turn to shit (an inversion of the “midas touch,” the notorious curse cast on the venal ruler of antiquity who reduced everything he touched to mere gold, including his own daughter).
The folk wisdom we gain in our youth is sometimes useful for coming to terms with the perplexing enigmas we are forced to face in later life, as Albert Einstein once postulated: “Imagination is more important than knowledge,” and as the anarchist sociologist Stanley Arronowitz asserted in one of his later books: “many of us have been sacrificed on the Alter of The Reality Principle.” But Sartre perhaps has formulated this lesson best when he wrote that every person is faced with the task of giving his life meaning, we are all confronted with the struggle against the practico-inert into which we have been born.
Our disgust with ruling-class culture, with the sadistic nightmares which emerge from their excruciating boredom, coupled with their delusions of grandeur, has produced wide-spread feelings of disgust with humanity, indeed the effects of their “sadim touch” is spreading and we’re told we must pay the price. There seems to be no limit to this madness, but in fact there is a historic trajectory: Genocide leads to Fratricide. A Requiem is in order!
This “sadim touch” is teaching us much about ourselves and the powers that have shaped us. We will be held accountable . . . .
Again, the 26+ items below, taken from critical Anglophone social media, sound the alarm: BEWARE, DANGER AHEAD!
Sincerely,
Francis McCollum Feeley

“They’re Terrified by the Epstein Files”
https://www.youtube.com/live/MearwafoVVc?si=EWM66gl0iRBMUbfU
by Reason2Resist, with Dimitri Lascaris and Rami Yahia
(1:38:36)
Several days after the Trump regime published more than 3 million pages of previously undisclosed Epstein-related materials, the Netanyahu regime announced that Netanyahu would return to Washington for the sixth time since Trump returned to the White House about one year ago. Ostensibly, the reason for this visit is the ongoing 'negotiations' between the Trump regime and Iran, but there's plenty of evidence that Netanyahu and Trump have more on their minds than Iran. Every day, new revelations from the Epstein files cause Israel's standing with American voters to sink even deeper. Meanwhile, Trump is staring at a crushing defeat in the upcoming mid-terms elections. As Dimitri Lascaris and Rami Yahia explain in Reason2Resist's latest livestream, both Trump and Netanyahu have plenty of reasons to be terrified by the Epstein files.

“Jail Deputy FOUND DEAD After Confessing He Helped Epstein ESCAPE | Feds Hunt Down Witnesses”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INDqHg-FESw&pp=0gcJCYcKAYcqIYzv
by Tea With Tia and Misstee
(10:07)
Word is a jail deputy just got found dead right after allegedly confessing he helped Jeffrey Epstein “get out,” and detectives are already whispering foul play while quietly tailing potential witnesses, and this is exploding at the exact same time insiders are pushing claims that Epstein is alive and hiding. And the reason this hits different is because buried in the latest Epstein file releases is something that drags the whole “he killed himself alone” storyline back into the mud… the anonymous 4chan post that claimed Epstein was wheeled out of his cell alive the night before the public was told he was dead is now being tied to a real MCC prison officer: Roberto Grijalva. That 4chan post was allegedly written by someone inside the building. And that post described Epstein being strapped to a medical bed and removed while an unauthorized van entered the facility the same night. Looking to verify the information in this video?

“An Inside Look At Jeffrey Epstein's Demonic New York Mansion”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyR1-IzX-Xg&si=kehsqrRkDKlPDlkG
by Reason2Resist, with Dimitri Lascaris
(56:32)
In late 2025, pursuant to the Epstein Files Transparency Act, the U.S. Department of Justice released more than 3,100 photographs of the interior of Jeffrey Epstein's opulent mansion in Manhattan's Upper East Side. These photographs were taken by federal investigators five days after the FBI arrested Epstein in July 2019. They provide important insights into Jeffrey Epstein's lifestyle, activities and associations in the final years of his life. After examining many of these photographs, Dimitri Lascaris discusses the most revealing and disturbing images, most of which have received little to no attention from the media.

“THIS Is The BIGGEST LIE They Told About The COVID Vaxx!”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsKYjDgg_sE
by The Jimmy Dore Show
(13:49)
Even today much of the public remains unaware that COVID-19 vaccine efficacy was misrepresented to the public, in particular with the oft-repeated claim of Pfizer’s “95% efficacy” claim which referred to relative risk reduction rather than a large absolute benefit. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Bill Maher’s admission that he took the vaccine owing to professional pressure despite working from home, using this as an example of coercive mandates in Hollywood and broader society. Jimmy praises Adam Carolla for advocating a risk-based, nuanced approach to vaccination—supporting it for the elderly while opposing it for children—and criticizes media narratives that labeled such positions as “anti-vaccine.” Overall, the segment claims that fear, propaganda, and social conformity drove vaccine uptake, while dissenting voices were marginalized or silenced.

“Max Blumenthal: The Mafia Doctrine in Full Effect”

Max Blumenthal joined Judge Napolitano to expose what’s really happening in Washington. Netanyahu is in DC to tank Iran talks and drag Trump into a regional war—and Murdoch media is flooding the zone with Ziocons like Nikki Haley to push him over the edge. Trump sends carriers, Rubio pulls strings, and the sane voices are locked out.
Meanwhile, Venezuela’s acting president is being blackmailed with secret indictments while the Trump admin smiles and steals her country’s oil. Cuba is under a genocidal siege—no fuel, children dying—and Rubio won’t even acknowledge their government exists. Russia and China are watching. The US has no diplomacy, only extortion. This isn’t foreign policy. It’s organized crime with aircraft carriers.

“You Have No Idea What They Have Planned”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hU9NjU9CfJY
with Whitney Webb
(12:30)
The collapse of BCCI was not just a banking scandal—it was a warning. Marketed as a development institution “banking the unbanked” across the Global South, the Bank of Credit and Commerce International was ultimately exposed as a vast criminal enterprise entangled with intelligence agencies, arms trafficking, drug laundering, and elite corruption. Its 1991 implosion, scrutinized in U.S. Senate investigations amid the fallout of Iran-Contra affair, revealed how financial institutions can function as covert instruments of geopolitical power. Yet despite the scale of the scandal, public memory faded—helped in part, critics argue, by legal maneuvering during the tenure of William Barr. This historical precedent frames the modern debate around Tether and its flagship stablecoin USDT. Promoted as a tool for financial inclusion, Tether echoes the rhetoric once used by BCCI: empowering the unbanked, facilitating cross-border liquidity, stabilizing fragile economies. Yet questions linger about reserve transparency, enforcement cooperation, and its role in controversial crypto episodes such as the collapse of FTX under Sam Bankman-Fried. Stablecoins have become major purchasers of U.S. Treasuries, tying the digital asset ecosystem directly to dollar hegemony and federal debt markets. In volatile economies—often destabilized by sanctions or dependency on institutions like the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank—Tether functions as an informal dollarization mechanism. It offers a lifeline against collapsing local currencies, yet simultaneously expands the reach of the U.S. dollar without formal policy declaration. Critics argue this creates a digital infrastructure that is surveillable, seizable, and programmable—features commonly associated with central bank digital currency debates, even when branded as private-sector innovation. The conversation intensifies when considering proposals for a U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve. Donald Trump has expressed opposition to formal CBDCs while endorsing dollar-backed stablecoins and signaling openness toward Bitcoin accumulation. Would such a move validate Bitcoin’s rise—or domesticate it? For early adopters inspired by Bitcoin’s anti-establishment ethos, the alignment of digital assets with Wall Street giants like BlackRock raises uncomfortable questions. Is Bitcoin becoming a hedge against fiat instability—or a new pillar within it?

“A Digital Currency Trap is Near”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKoaTWASCdA
with Whitney Webb
(12:40)
That shift helps explain the rise of firms like Palantir Technologies and the fusion of intelligence priorities with Silicon Valley’s data-harvesting business model. What could not be imposed directly by the state could be normalized through platform capitalism. A similar pattern appears today in debates over central bank digital currencies. Direct Federal Reserve–issued CBDCs face resistance, yet “synthetic CBDCs” issued by private banks and backed by central bank reserves remain firmly on the table. Whether the issuer is a central bank or a firm led by executives like Jamie Dimon, the result critics fear is the same: programmable, traceable digital money integrated with identity verification systems. Internationally, coordination through institutions such as the Bank for International Settlements and the European Central Bank is advancing interoperability across borders. At the same time, biometric ID systems like India’s Aadhaar illustrate both the scale and the risks of linking identity to financial access, including documented cases of exclusion due to system errors. The broader issue is not simply digital currency or digital ID in isolation, but their integration. Financial participation, humanitarian aid, and online access increasingly converge around authenticated identity and traceable transactions. Geopolitical blocs may disagree on strategy, yet many converge on the architecture of surveillable money and interoperable identity systems. History suggests that major structural shifts are often accelerated by crisis—cyber threats, financial instability, or geopolitical escalation. The central question is whether emergency becomes the justification for permanent infrastructure that conditions economic participation on full transparency. That is the debate now unfolding.

“The Master Plan Is Finally Being Exposed”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e93RnujYzWk&si=VdVNSZqJZ--shWyk
by Investigative Insights TV, with Whitney Webb and James Corbett
(15:33)
Jeffrey Epstein was not merely a disgraced financier undone by sex crimes between 2000 and 2006. He operated at the intersection of intelligence, finance, real estate, and elite philanthropy—an ecosystem that long predates his arrest and, arguably, survives him. To focus exclusively on the criminal exploitation exposed in court is to ignore the broader architecture of power in which he functioned. Pull on the Epstein thread, and what begins to unravel is not just personal depravity, but a network linking distressed real estate, political influence, technology capital, and opaque financial vehicles that shaped the modern era. In the 1980s and 1990s, Epstein was frequently described not as a billionaire or global financier, but as a property developer. His proximity to figures like Leslie Wexner and future president Donald Trump placed him squarely inside Manhattan’s high-stakes real estate world—a sector notorious for serving as both investment vehicle and financial laundromat. Social overlaps reportedly extended to investors such as Tom Barrack, whose distressed asset strategies paralleled the era’s speculative excess. Real estate, after all, is uniquely suited for opaque capital flows. If Epstein’s fortune remains mysterious, property markets may hold part of the answer. But the story does not end in New York. The Maxwell dynasty—anchored by the late media baron Robert Maxwell—bridges Epstein’s world of sex trafficking with technology, espionage, and political philanthropy. After Robert Maxwell’s 1991 death under murky circumstances, his daughters, including Ghislaine Maxwell, maintained ties across finance and emerging tech. Through ventures like early search engine projects and later telecom investments, members of the Maxwell network intersected with Microsoft leadership during the formative years of Silicon Valley’s consolidation. Figures such as Bill Gates and Paul Allen appear in overlapping timelines that challenge the conventional narrative that these relationships began only in the 2010s.

“The Truth Is Much Worse Than I Thought | Whitney Webb’s Terrifying Discovery”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jg-U7oKOwFs
by Investigative Insights TV
(15:33)
This video traces the hidden alliance between organized crime, U.S. intelligence agencies, and financial power that emerged during World War II and never truly disappeared. Beginning with documented cooperation between the OSS, the Office of Naval Intelligence, and New York’s National Crime Syndicate, the discussion explores how tactics pioneered by the Mafia—blackmail, coercion, and compartmentalized loyalty—were absorbed into the modern intelligence state. What started as wartime pragmatism evolved into a durable system in which intelligence agencies, financial elites, and later Silicon Valley firms learned to work symbiotically, trading power, protection, and information behind the scenes. From CIA factions and off-the-books operations to the rise of Big Tech as an intelligence partner, the conversation situates figures like Jeffrey Epstein, Wall Street executives, and PayPal-era tech oligarchs within a longer historical pattern rather than treating them as isolated scandals. The video examines how surveillance, financialization, and programmable money converge into a new architecture of control, one rooted not in democracy or transparency, but in public-private partnerships that reward loyalty and punish dissent. By following the revolving door from intelligence agencies to Wall Street, from Harvard economics departments to Treasury policy, the narrative exposes how unaccountable power reproduces itself—and why the consequences continue to shape financial markets, technology, and political life today.

“It Begins: This is Their Plan For 2026”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssbvYXyiehM
by Investigative Insights TV, with Whitney Webb
(12:52)
This video examines how neoconservative power did not disappear after the Cold War or the War on Terror, but instead rebranded itself through technology, privatization, and the language of innovation. Using Peter Thiel as a central case study, the discussion traces how Palantir emerged directly from the wreckage of the Pentagon’s post-9/11 Total Information Awareness program—an openly unconstitutional mass-surveillance initiative designed to predict crimes before they occur. Though Congress publicly defunded TIA after widespread backlash, its core architecture survived through privatization, with intelligence veterans, DARPA officials, and longtime neoconservative operatives quietly guiding Palantir’s creation and early development for the CIA.
The conversation goes further, showing how “pre-crime” logic has expanded beyond intelligence agencies into emergency services, policing, and domestic governance through companies like Carbyne, whose board once included Jeffrey Epstein–linked figures and intelligence veterans from the U.S. and Israel. The deeper argument is not simply about surveillance, but about power: how predictive algorithms replace due process, how compromised elites are elevated rather than punished, and how blackmail—once run through human networks—has increasingly been automated through data collection. In this framework, Epstein is not an anomaly but a symptom, rendered obsolete by a system that no longer needs personal coercion when digital lives can be harvested, analyzed, or fabricated at scale.

“Why does the British elite hate Russia so much?”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtIj2sGppDs&si=4GoIfLwVLe5KPQ8E
by Reason2Resist, with Dimitri Lascaris and John Helmer
(1:09:41)
In a recent press conference with U.S. President Donald Trump, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer declared that his government is going "all in" on NATO's failed proxy war in Ukraine. Starmer's refusal to acknowledge NATO's defeat is the latest indication that the British elite harbours an implacable hostility toward Russia, and particularly toward the government of Vladimir Putin. To explore the basis of this hostility, Dimitri Lascaris spoke with John Helmer.
Helmer is the longest continuously serving foreign correspondent in Russia, and the only western journalist to direct his own bureau, independent of national or commercial ties. Born and educated in Australia, then at Harvard University, John has also been a professor of political science, of sociology, and of journalism, and an advisor to government heads in Australia, Greece, the United States, and Sri Lanka. He has published several books on military and political topics. His latest book is “Long Live Novichok!: The British poison which fooled the world."
Lascaris and Helmer also discussed Starmer's attitude toward Trump's vow to make Canada the 51st state of the United States. According to Helmer, the British government has betrayed Canada. Finally, Lascaris and Helmer discussed the faltering campaign of Chrystia Freeland to succeed Justin Trudeau as the next Prime Minister of Canada. Were Freeland to win, what kind of a Prime Minister would she make?

“"This is Not a Dress Rehearsal": U.S. Engaged in Massive Military Buildup as Threat To Bomb Iran Grows”

President Trump explained the move in remarks at Ft. Bragg as a threat to the Iranians amid ongoing talks, saying, “In case we don’t make a deal, we’ll need it.”
The U.S. military is in the midst of amassing an enormous fleet of aircraft and warships within striking distance of Iran as the region enters the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. It is the largest buildup of firepower in the Middle East since President Donald Trump authorized a 12-day bombing campaign against Iran last June that killed more than 1,000 people.
While Iranian and U.S. negotiators are speaking in cautiously optimistic tones about the latest round of indirect talks held Tuesday in Geneva and suggested another meeting was possible, comments from the highest levels of power in both countries drive home the reality that the U.S. may be on the verge of attacking the Islamic Republic.
“In some ways it went well. They agreed to meet afterward,” Vice President JD Vance told Fox News on Tuesday, following the talks. “But in other ways, it was very clear that the president has set some red lines that the Iranians are not yet willing to actually acknowledge and work through.” Vance maintained that Trump prefers a diplomatic solution, but warned that “the president reserves the ability to say when he thinks that diplomacy has reached its natural end.”
A former senior U.S. intelligence official who is an informal advisor to the Trump administration on Middle East policy told Drop Site that, based on his discussions with current officials, he assesses an 80-90% likelihood of U.S. strikes within weeks.
The extraordinary and expensive U.S. military buildup would be sufficient for a large-scale campaign against Tehran that goes far beyond the limited strikes that have taken place in the past. “It harkens back to what I saw ahead of the 2003 Iraq war,” said retired Lt. Col. Daniel Davis, a senior fellow and military expert at Defense Priorities, in an interview with Drop Site News. “You don’t assemble this kind of power to send a message. In my view, this is what you do when you’re preparing to use it. What I see on the diplomatic front is just to try to keep things rolling until it’s time to actually launch the military operation. I think that everybody on both sides knows where this is heading.”
Iran realizes that it is facing an unprecedented threat from the U.S. if a deal that conforms with Trump’s terms is not reached, former Pentagon official Jasmine El-Gamal told Drop Site. “This is not a dress rehearsal,” she said. “This is it. This is not the negotiations of last year or the year before or the year before that. They’re backed into a corner. There’s no off ramp.”
The ongoing deployment includes the stationing of dozens of aircraft including F‑15 strike fighters, F‑35 stealth fighters, Boeing EA‑18G Growler electronic‑warfare aircraft, and A‑10C ground‑attack aircraft at a military airbase in Jordan—despite the Jordanian government’s recent insistence that its territory would not be used as a base to attack Iran. Dozens more F-35, F-22, and F-16 fighter jets have also been observed by independent flight trackers transiting to the region over the past 48 hours, along with a large number of tanker refueling aircraft departing from the continental U.S.
Two carrier strike groups—each built around one aircraft carrier, several guided‑missile destroyers armed with Tomahawk missiles, and at least one submarine—are also being stationed nearby, along with several additional U.S. destroyers and submarines in regional waters near Iran to defend against ballistic missile attacks, as well as more than 30,000 U.S. military personnel and numerous Patriot and THAAD anti-missile batteries spread across regional military bases.
The aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, which has been in the region since late January, also carries an air wing of roughly 60–70 warplanes, including about 40–45 F‑35C and F/A‑18 strike fighters, as well as Growler electronic‑warfare jets, early‑warning radar aircraft, and MH‑60 attack helicopters.
The USS Gerald R. Ford—which last week was redirected from Venezuela to the Middle East—is the world’s largest and most advanced carrier, and can operate a similar mix of up to 75 aircraft. “The Ford was used for the campaign in Venezuela and eventually the strikes on [President Nicolás] Maduro. And now they’re being sent to the Middle East. They won’t be back for several months. So this is a crew that has been stretched to the limit,” said El-Gamal, who specialized in Middle East policy at the Defense Department. “The fact that that carrier is there tells me that this isn’t just a routine kind of, ‘Hey, let’s flex some muscle.’ He didn’t need that. He didn’t need to send that second carrier to flex muscle.”

“Demographics Are Destiny”
by James Corbett
What’s the biggest news story of the moment?
The kidnapping of Nancy Guthrie?
The LDP’s sweeping victory in last weekend’s Lower House elections in Japan?
The drought in Kenya?
Yes, depending on what part of the world you happen to reside in, one of these stories (or the local equivalent) will be dominating the headlines when you scroll through the newsfeed today.
But 100 years from now, what news from our era do you think your great-great-grandchildren will be reading about?
Do you think they’ll be learning about the Epstein files?
Do you think they’ll be preoccupied with the geoeconomic scramble for rare earths that presaged WWIII?
Do you think they’ll be scrutinizing New World Next Week Episode #619, in which James and James cover the Bezos ring camera surveillance fiasco?
Actually, that’s a trick question. Given the way birth rates are plummeting throughout the world, it’s quite likely you won’t even have great-great-grandchildren running around 100 years from now.
And, even if you beat the odds and actually do have progeny walking the earth a century hence, they’ll no doubt be more interested in the stories that we’re ignoring right now:
New York State Is Headed for a Decade of Population Decline
and
Congressional Budget Office Projects Lower Than Expected US Population Growth
and
Japan nears 10% foreign population years ahead of official forecasts
and
Iran’s Youth Population Shrinks as Demographic Window Rapidly Closes
and
France sends letters to 29-year-olds telling them to get on with having children
and a thousand similar stories that we hardly notice today.
In case you didn’t notice, we’ve already begun the descent into a shrinking world, and it’s already tearing the fabric of society apart at its seams. Indeed, the demographic crunch is perhaps the most consequential story in the history of humanity, and yet it’s scarcely ever talked about.
So today, let’s dive straight into the heart of the matter and see if we can answer two questions: how does population collapse lead to the collapse of civilization, and is there any way to avoid this demographic destiny?

“Immigration judge terminates removal proceedings against Tufts student detained by Trump administration …”
https://edition.cnn.com/2026/02/09/us/rumeysa-ozturk-immigration-detention-terminated
An immigration judge terminated removal proceedings against Tufts University doctoral student Rümeysa Öztürk, who was detained for over a month last year as part of the Trump administration’s effort to target and deport international students and activists involved in pro-Palestinian advocacy, her lawyers said Monday.
The Department of Homeland Security hadn’t met its burden to prove Öztürk’s removability, prompting the immigration court to end removal proceedings against her, according to a letter from her attorneys submitted in court and a federal appeals court docket.
The move comes after recently unsealed court documents showed the federal government didn’t have any evidence that Öztürk had been supporting terrorist activity when she was arrested, and that her visa revocation and arrest were because of an opinion article she wrote containing criticisms of Israel.
“Today, I breathe a sigh of relief knowing that despite the justice system’s flaws, my case may give hope to those who have also been wronged by the U.S. government,” Öztürk wrote in a statement Monday. “Though the pain that I and thousands of other women wrongfully imprisoned by ICE have faced cannot be undone, it is heartening to know that some justice can prevail after all.”

“The Truth Is Way Worse Than I Thought”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7N8uI4m__Lw
by The Katie Halper Show, with Whitney Webb
(16:00)
Behind the glamour of hip hop’s commercial ascent, this investigation traces a darker architecture of power—one that links music industry consolidation, organized crime legacies, intelligence scandals, and the same billionaire networks that orbited Jeffrey Epstein. What emerges is not simply a story about individual misconduct, but about how cultural industries may have been reshaped by financial and political forces operating far beyond the recording studio. At the center is the so-called “Mega Group,” reportedly formed in 1991 by Leslie Wexner and Charles Bronfman—a circle of billionaires later referenced by The Wall Street Journal. Wexner, long identified as Jeffrey Epstein’s primary patron, built a network that intersected with major entertainment assets through figures such as Laurence Tisch and the Bronfman family. Through holdings tied to MCA, Warner, CBS, and Def Jam, this circle occupied commanding heights of media and music just as hip hop was becoming a dominant commercial force. The discussion argues that this consolidation overlapped with longstanding organized crime conduits in the recording industry—names like Morris Levy and the infrastructure surrounding early labels such as Sugar Hill Records. It further connects these developments to allegations surrounding Sean “Diddy” Combs and rival executives, tracing mentorship lines back to Russell Simmons and industry relationships that extended into Hollywood via director Brett Ratner. Ratner’s partnerships—including ventures with financier James Packer—and his public proximity to figures such as Benjamin Netanyahu and attorney Alan Dershowitz illustrate how entertainment, political influence, and global capital often converge. The broader claim moves beyond personalities to policy. It situates the alleged cultural “engineering” of violent themes in 1990s hip hop alongside the expansion of private prisons and the passage of the 1994 crime bill under Bill Clinton. Companies such as The GEO Group—formerly Wackenhut—are placed within a lineage that includes the PROMIS software scandal and the shadow networks exposed during Iran-Contra. Investigative journalist Gary Webb’s reporting on crack cocaine trafficking and intelligence complicity is invoked to argue that drugs, weapons flows, prison expansion, and media narratives may have functioned as mutually reinforcing systems rather than isolated scandals.

“This Is How Power Opens Its Doors”

(12:17)
In this video, we examine the early rise of Jeffrey Epstein — not through headlines or speculation, but through the framework and language used by investigative journalist Whitney Webb herself. In this interview, Whitney Webb repeatedly describes Epstein not as an anomaly, but as a product of larger systems — networks involving money, access, and influence. Rather than presenting Epstein as a lone figure, she frames him as someone who moved through elite financial, political, and international circles with permission, long before his name became publicly known. This video follows Whitney Webb’s own overview and terminology, focusing on how she explains Epstein’s rise: how access was granted how elite networks operate and why simple explanations fail to explain his position The goal of this video is not to make accusations or reach final conclusions, but to present and examine the perspective offered in the original discussion, allowing viewers to think critically about how power actually works behind the scenes. Sometimes, journalists raise questions that only make sense with time. This video explores one such perspective.

“A FINANCIAL LOCKDOWN IS NEAR! - Whitney Webb’s Shocking Discovery”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXJLAtp-1QM
by Investigative Insights TV
(10:41)
The so-called “PayPal Mafia” is not simply a circle of successful tech founders—it is, as Whitney Webb argues, a deeply entrenched network of billionaires whose power now straddles Silicon Valley, Wall Street, Washington, and the national security state. Figures such as Peter Thiel, Reid Hoffman, and Pierre Omidyar operate across partisan lines, embedding themselves in both Republican and Democratic power structures. Their influence is not ideological in the conventional sense—it is infrastructural. Through companies like Palantir Technologies, built in close coordination with U.S. intelligence agencies, data dominance becomes political leverage. Webb challenges the libertarian branding often attached to Thiel, noting his explicit hostility to market competition and preference for monopolistic control. From its earliest days, PayPal itself—now a central player in digital payments—was framed by some of its founders as a vehicle to rival or even replace traditional monetary systems. Today, that ambition resurfaces in the race to dominate digital dollars. Whether through stablecoins like PayPal’s PYUSD or broader private-sector digital currency infrastructure, the battle over programmable and surveillable money is underway. Public debate often centers on central bank digital currencies, yet Webb emphasizes that private issuers can implement the same surveillance and control features without a formal CBDC framework. The political dimension intensifies the stakes. JD Vance’s ascent—backed early by Thiel—coincides with legislative battles over crypto regulation and digital finance oversight. As a member of the Senate Banking Committee, Vance occupies a strategic position in shaping which digital currencies thrive. Regulation determines market winners, and when major donors have direct stakes in emerging financial rails, the line between policymaking and profit becomes blurred. Meanwhile, figures such as Elon Musk pursue ambitions to transform X into a hybrid social platform and financial hub, integrating payments, AI, and digital identity into a unified ecosystem. Webb also highlights the media component of this consolidation. Investments in alternative platforms and high-profile journalists create an appearance of dissident independence while maintaining ties to the same financial network. The pattern echoes earlier ventures like The Intercept, launched under billionaire patronage.

Why Trump has concluded there is "no military solution" and is desperate to avoid a "forever war" with Iran. Iran's new, nearly indestructible "Pitchfork Mountain" nuclear facility that is 67% larger than previous sites. The growing ballistic missile threat that has become an "existential threat" to Israel.

“They're Silencing Everyone: Suspicious Deaths Pile Up”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAlZZQmdsgw&si=pAM8Tuvr1BQ8J8_C
by History’s Dark Hour, with Whitney Webb and Peter McCormack
(25:37)
Credit to Peter McCormack for their great interview with Whitney Webb. This video examines the stalling momentum behind the Epstein investigation and why the promise of full transparency has been met with bipartisan silence and narrative reversals. The discussion highlights glaring anomalies in the official timeline, from unexplained delays in FBI raids on Epstein’s properties to the highly suspicious deaths of key associates like Jean-Luc Brunel and Mark Middleton. By scrutinizing the bizarre circumstances of Middleton’s death—ruled a suicide despite the initial absence of a weapon—and his deep ties to the Clinton White House during the “China Gate” scandal, the conversation challenges the official limits placed on the investigation. The analysis then broadens to the historical fusion of US intelligence and organized crime, tracing the lineage of “Operation Underworld” from World War II to the present day. The dialogue argues that intelligence agencies absorbed criminal rackets—including drug and sex trafficking—to fund off-the-books operations and protect multinational corporate interests under the guise of national security. By framing Epstein not merely as a sex offender but as a financial and intelligence asset involved in arms dealing and economic espionage, the discussion suggests that the current sex trafficking narrative serves as a “limited hangout” designed to prevent the exposure of a much deeper, systemic infrastructure.

“Whitney Webb’s WARNING: ‘This Is The Only Way To Prepare For What's Coming’”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wa3GWHBPcJA
by Investigative Insights
(13:43)
Is America surrendering its political identity in the name of winning the AI arms race? This discussion examines a growing faction of technocratic thinkers who argue that to compete with China, the United States must fully integrate artificial intelligence into everyday life—eliminating in-person commerce, private car ownership, and even traditional healthcare models. Under the leadership of Eric Schmidt, the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence outlined recommendations that critics say risk transforming the U.S. into the very system it claims to resist. The conversation also confronts the disturbing rhetoric of Curtis Yarvin, whose proposal to “virtualize” society’s so-called undesirables evokes dystopian authoritarianism rather than democratic reform. Layered onto this are unresolved questions surrounding Jeffrey Epstein and the opaque financial networks tied to powerful institutions, raising broader concerns about elite protection, intelligence entanglements, and the erosion of public trust. At its core, this is a warning: when information is flooded with distortion and citizens outsource discernment to algorithms, democracy weakens. Constitutional rights, critical thinking, and responsible parenting are not abstract ideals—they are the last defense against a system that prizes efficiency over humanity.

“US Troops Arrive in Nigeria To Train Nigerian Military”
https://news.antiwar.com/2026/02/16/us-troops-arrive-in-nigeria-to-train-nigerian-military/
by David DeCamp, at Antiwar.com
The Nigerian military announced on Monday that about 100 US troops have arrived in Nigeria to help train Nigerian soldiers as the Trump administration continues to deepen US involvement in the country.
The 100 troops are the first to arrive as part of a deployment of 200 US soldiers to Nigeria, which was announced by US military officials last week. The 200 US troops will augment a “small team” of US military advisors who deployed to the country weeks ago.
The military deployment comes after the US launched its first missile strike in Nigeria on Christmas Day. US Africa Command said the attack, launched by a US warship in the Gulf of Guinea, killed ISIS-linked militants in Nigeria’s northwestern Sokoto State, but the deaths have never been confirmed.
Several of the Tomahawk missiles fired into Nigeria fell short and landed on two villages far from the intended target. No civilians were killed, but in one of the villages, several homes were destroyed.
The Trump administration has justified the intervention by using the pretext of helping protect Nigeria’s Christians. President Trump initially threatened intervention with or without the consent of the government over claims that Nigerian authorities were looking the other way while a Christian genocide was taking place in the country, but the two sides have since agreed to increase military cooperation.
While Christians in Nigeria face significant violence from ISIS-linked groups, armed bandits, and herdsmen, the Nigerian government disputes the idea that a Christian genocide is taking place since Muslims are also frequently killed. For example, about 200 people in a Muslim-majority town in the state of Kwara in western Nigeria were massacred earlier this month.

by Democracy Now!
(23:47)
Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are accusing the Justice Department of covering up the names of co-conspirators of the deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as fallout from the Epstein files grows across the globe. Millions of pages remain unreleased. As many prominent U.S. figures evade accountability following mentions in the Epstein files, a number of European figures have resigned for their relationships with Epstein. "The most extraordinary and worrying thing of what is going on in the United States is the scale of normalization that is happening, in which the press is absolutely a structural part of this," says Carole Cadwalladr, award-winning investigative journalist. "I have been shocked — deeply, deeply shocked — by the absence of headlines."

“Reiner Fuellmich, Therapeutic Choice and the Price of Speech”
https://www.malone.news/p/reiner-fuellmich-therapeutic-choice
by Dr. Robert Malone
A short refresher for readers new to the case.
by: ICIC Law / Seba Terribilini
In the accounts circulated by his supporters, Dr. Reiner Fuellmich is cast as a high-profile German attorney who turned his consumer-law reputation into a public crusade during the COVID era - most visibly through the “Corona Investigative Committee,” a long-form interview platform that hosted scientists, physicians, lawyers, and dissidents from multiple countries.
That visibility became the beginning of his legal nightmare. The case, as described in supportive reporting, is not framed as a routine internal dispute but as a collision between political power and a lawyer who would not stop asking questions. The core allegations against him, variously described as breach of trust or embezzlement related to funds, are presented as the formal basis for detention.
His advocates, however, argue that the deeper issue is his role in challenging official pandemic narratives, and they describe his prosecution and detention as political persecution rather than a case involving what would normally be considered white-collar accusations.
