“Inside Epstein's Zorro Ranch: the FBI cover-up exposed”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPy40PK_ztY
by 60 Minutes Australia, with Tara Brown
In the wake of the newly unsealed Epstein files, a special Truth Commission in New Mexico is finally investigating the horrific crimes and alleged cover-ups
centered around the disgraced predator's remote Zorro Ranch. Survivors and local officials demanded answers as to why federal authorities seemingly
ignored terrifying tips of deaths, human trafficking, and a twisted designer baby project at the forgotten desert compound.
Epstein survivor Chauntae Davies is deeply haunted by Zorro, and tells 60 Minutes reporter Tara Brown it was the "most eerie" of all the places she was trafficked to.
Davies is now working to rebuild her life, dedicating her time to animal rescue charities in Texas, like Jack Jacks Pack Street Dog Rescue.

Subject : “Our Dog in the Fight: The Master/Slave Relationship”
Grenoble, France
May 8, 2026
Dear Colleagues and Friends of CEIMSA,
It appears evident on this the anniversary celebrating the end of World War II that the capitalist class has created a gigantic vacuum cleaner to suck up the wealth and the very lives of ordinary people in their quest for the concentration of wealth and the reduction of world populations. This truth imposed on us by empirical evidence is almost insurmountable; it stands as an elephant silently occupying our living room. The ill-intentions of the ruling class are visible to all who wish to see, as their resounding rhetoric spreads widely among the blind (thanks to the pervasive 4-profit Corporate Media and the Masters of War).
The 26+ items below, taken from Anglophone social media, provide information and discussions which are unavailable in the corporate media. They describe the destructive power of American capitalism in the hands of a ruling class unaccountable to society, which is distracted by a 1001 miscellaneous events and pseudo-events – distractions which could easily turn fatal. As the water warms, the frog becomes inactive; then it is too late….
Sincerely,
Francis McCollum Feeley

by Community Alliance 4 Peace and Justice, with John Mearsheimer
(1:02:30)
As military escalation intensified around the Strait of Hormuz, the conflict involving Iran, the United States, and Israel appeared to be entering an even more dangerous phase. Nearly 10 weeks into the crisis, reports of direct exchanges of fire between U.S. and Iranian forces, growing regional involvement—including the United Arab Emirates—and explosions across southern Iran raised fears that the conflict could spiral beyond the control of any one actor. In this urgent discussion, Professor John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago and Dr. Trita Parsi of the Quincy Institute examined the rapidly evolving crisis, the state of U.S.–Iran negotiations, regional power dynamics, and the prospects for de-escalation. The conversation explored where the conflict may be headed, what each side hopes to achieve, and whether a wider regional war can still be averted.

“‘Highly Protected’: OPCW confirms it buried critical evidence in Syria chemical weapons probe”
by Aaron Mate, The Grayzone
The OPCW finally acknowledges concealing the assessment of German military toxicologists who ruled out chlorine gas as the cause of dozens of deaths in the alleged Douma chemical attack of April 2018.
For the first time in a prolonged cover-up scandal, the world’s top chemical watchdog has acknowledged censoring a finding that undermined allegations of a toxic gas attack by the former Syrian government.
According to previously leaked documents, expert German military toxicologists consulted by the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) ruled out chlorine gas as the cause of death of dozens of victims in an alleged chemical attack in the Syrian town of Douma in April 2018. The experts even raised the possibility that the incident was a false flag. The OPCW suppressed this finding and released a final report asserting that chlorine gas was likely used. The OPCW’s conclusion aligned with the claims of the US, UK, and France, who bombed Syria in April 2018 over what they alleged was a Syrian government chemical attack in Douma.

In a stunning twist from the Iran war, reports claim Tehran used a U.S.-made F-5 fighter jet to strike a key American base in Kuwait. The attack on Camp Buehring, a crucial logistics hub, marks one of the rare instances of an enemy aircraft hitting a U.S. facility in recent years. The irony lies in the jet’s origins, supplied by Washington to Iran before 1979. Analysts say even aging aircraft can deliver damage when used tactically. The incident raises questions about vulnerabilities, battlefield realities, and the true scale of damage suffered by U.S. forces.

Four hundred Hwasong-18 ICBMs launched. Three American carriers obliterated. Fifteen thousand sailors dead, wounded, or missing. The USS Gerald R. Ford, the Eisenhower, the Truman — all three on the seafloor of the Strait of Hormuz. The 5th Fleet has fled to the Arabian Sea. Washington is panicking. Gulf monarchies are suspending basing agreements. The global oil market is in freefall. Tonight's analysis goes inside the full operational architecture of Iran's Hwasong-18 strike, why American carrier defense doctrine failed completely, what Washington's panic reveals about forty-five years of strategic miscalculation, and what a world without American naval primacy at Hormuz actually looks like.

Beijing has just sent a chilling signal to the world. China’s Foreign Ministry is ordering all its nationals in Iran to relocate to "safer areas" immediately, citing a security environment that is becoming "complex and severe." This isn't just a routine travel advisory—it’s a strategic freeze on movement that often precedes massive military escalation. As Chinese citizens are told to avoid military zones at all costs, the message is clear: Beijing believes the window for safety in Tehran is rapidly closing.

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia — Russian President Vladimir Putin met with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Monday to reaffirm a deepening strategic partnership following recent U.S. and Israeli military strikes on Iranian soil. During the high-stakes summit at the Boris Yeltsin Presidential Library, Putin confirmed receipt of a personal message from Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, and praised the "heroic" resistance of the Iranian people against foreign aggression. Araghchi, concluding a regional diplomatic tour including Pakistan and Oman, declared that the Tehran-Moscow axis has reached a level of "strategic partnership" capable of confronting the United States military. As global energy markets react to the instability in the Strait of Hormuz, the Kremlin has positioned itself as a central mediator, promising to do "everything" to secure Iranian interests and restore regional peace under Iran’s new leadership.

“Trump Escalates Military Threats in Hormuz as Iran Prepares for New Round of U.S.-Israeli Bombings and Assassinations”
by Jeremy Scahill, Drop Site News
Iran believes Trump is likely to resume the war in failed quest to declare victory, a senior Iranian official told Drop Site.
President Donald Trump is scrambling to find a way to declare victory in the war against Iran—vacillating between public demands to make a deal and threats to unleash a new round of massive bombing. The U.S. naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz has sparked a global economic and energy crisis, and neither the blockade nor Trump’s threats have resulted in Iranian capitulation or a willingness to forfeit any of its rights to control maritime traffic in the Strait.
A senior Iranian official told Drop Site that while Iran is actively engaged in indirect diplomacy with the U.S. via mediators, it has no intention of participating in direct talks until the U.S. blockade is unconditionally lifted.
“Based on current assessments, another military attack seems likely. [Trump’s] goals from the naval blockade haven’t been achieved,” the official said. “He can’t keep the blockade going for much longer. We think the U.S. will focus on Hormuz, so military attacks and operations will likely expand along Iran’s coastline, along with a new wave of assassinations [against Iranian leaders] they may pursue jointly with Israel.”
The official, who requested anonymity because he is not authorized to publicly comment, has direct knowledge of internal deliberations in Tehran. Trump, he argued, has limited options to find an off-ramp from his increasingly unpopular war.
“We have succeeded, through the sustained management of the Strait of Hormuz under our control, in effectively transforming the unilateral pressure imposed by the Americans into a reciprocal one. As time progresses, the restrictions imposed on this strategic chokepoint will generate increasingly widespread consequences for various goods and commodities worldwide,” he said. “The United States has, in practice, positioned itself as a destabilizing force for the global economy particularly in the energy sector. This development, from a strategic perspective, works clearly and substantially to Iran’s advantage.”
On Sunday afternoon, Trump announced that the U.S. would begin to “guide” merchant vessels stuck in the Strait out of Iranian waters. “If, in any way, this Humanitarian process is interfered with, that interference will, unfortunately, have to be dealt with forcefully,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. U.S. Central Command announced that it would support what Trump called “Project Freedom” with “guided-missile destroyers, over 100 land and sea-based aircraft, multi-domain unmanned platforms, and 15,000 service members.”

A new CNN investigation says Iran’s strikes during the war damaged at least 16 U.S. military sites across eight Middle Eastern countries, with some installations suffering enough harm to be considered operationally unusable or facing difficult repair decisions. The report, based on satellite imagery, damage assessments and interviews, also raises fresh questions about whether the Pentagon’s public accounting has understated both the physical damage and the true financial cost of the war.

Diplomacy has officially hit rock bottom.

Calling Bessent an "idiot" and targeting President Trump with explicit slurs, the embassy claimed Washington "lost the war" on the battlefield and in cyberspace. As mediators scramble to keep peace talks alive, the online war of words is threatening to spill over into the real world.

“U.S Intelligence Fingerprints Can Be Seen in Death of Nirvana Singer Kurt Cobain—Like with Jeffrey Epstein’s Blackmail Network”
by John Potash
April 5 marked the 32nd anniversary of former Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain’s death, supposedly from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
This past year, an unofficial private sector team of forensic scientists that put fresh eyes on Cobain’s autopsy and the crime scene material concluded that Cobain’s death actually resulted from a homicide. A Utah investigator who also recently reviewed the case says he has new evidence that shows that Kurt Cobain was murdered. [1]
Much suspicion surrounds Cobain’s former wife, Courtney Love, who has known ties to U.S. intelligence and is also known to have connections to the Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking network that operated as part of an intelligence-blackmail operation.

The road to Beijing goes through the Strait of Hormuz. China has warned the White House that unless the Gulf crisis is resolved, it will consume the upcoming Trump-Xi summit. With 40% of its oil supply threatened, Beijing is demanding a "synchronized" end to both Iran’s restrictions and the U.S. naval blockade. While China has been working behind the scenes via Pakistan to maintain the peace, its latest message is clear: the era of "Operation Epic Fury" must end before Air Force One touches down.

On April 27, Iran's Foreign Minister was warmly welcomed to the Kremlin by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
In that meeting, President Putin expressed support for Iran and congratulated its people on their courageous resistance to U.S.-Israeli aggression. Two days later, however, President Putin held a 90-minute phone call with Donald Trump. The readout of their conversation gave mixed signals regarding the Russian government's approach to Trump's unbridled aggression. Dimitri Lascaris speaks with Russia expert John Helmer about the complex realities of Russia's relations with Iran, the United States, Israel and the Gulf autocracies.

On the night of May 1, Russia launched a combined missile attack on the Odessa region. In particular, in the northwestern part of the city of Odessa, the Russian military hit the warehouses of the 'Postal Service' of Ukraine. Sources confirmed that the North Atlantic Alliance used these warehouses to distribute military supplies from Western countries. Russian missiles and drones also rained down on the sea terminal in the city of 'Izmail'. Representatives of the Russian underground in the Odessa region confirmed that an hour before this Russian missile attack, military cargo from neighboring Romania arrived at this sea terminal

(6:36)
Riot police clashed with thousands of demonstrators in the German capital on Friday during the annual "Revolutionary May 1st" rally, resulting in multiple detentions and reports of injuries. Footage from the scene shows officers in riot gear charging into crowds of Antifa and labour activists who had formed defensive lines to block traffic. Protesters were seen lighting flares and carrying banners demanding the closure of U.S. military bases in Germany and an end to "imperialist war mania." The violence in Berlin follows a wave of International Workers' Day demonstrations across Europe, fueled by rising living costs and intensifying geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

“The Rothschild Who Financed The Boer War — And Walked Away With South Africa’s Gold”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrpmeOMcdSM&si=D6GwqYJMR2vkk7ZL
by The Treasury of History
(25:37)
In eighteen eighty-six the largest gold deposit ever discovered was found beneath the Transvaal in South Africa. The Boer farmers who owned the land had no idea what was about to happen to them. Within thirteen years Britain had sent four hundred and fifty thousand soldiers to take it. The war was publicly justified as a campaign to protect British settlers denied voting rights by the Boer government. But behind that justification was a financial network built over twenty years — connecting the most powerful private banking house in Britain, the most ambitious imperialist of the Victorian era, and the man specifically appointed to make conflict inevitable. N.M. Rothschild and Sons had been financing Cecil Rhodes since he entered the Kimberley diamond fields in eighteen seventy-one. By eighteen eighty-eight Rothschild capital had built De Beers Consolidated Mines into a monopoly controlling ninety percent of global diamond production. When gold was discovered at Witwatersrand in eighteen eighty-six the same partnership moved to control the gold fields. The problem was that the gold lay inside an independent Boer republic whose president had no intention of surrendering political control of the Transvaal to British mining interests. The Jameson Raid of eighteen ninety-five — a privately financed military coup attempt organised through the Rhodes network — failed catastrophically. Alfred Milner was then appointed British High Commissioner for South Africa with a specific brief. His private correspondence — held at the Bodleian Library in Oxford — documents in his own words that he considered war the most satisfactory outcome and that he was determined to force the issue. He spent two years rejecting every Boer concession and engineering the diplomatic conditions that made war inevitable. Four days after the Peace of Vereeniging ended the war in May nineteen oh two the first gold mine on the Witwatersrand reopened. This is the documented story of the twenty-year financial partnership between Natty Rothschild and Cecil Rhodes, the Jameson Raid conspiracy, Milner's engineered diplomatic crisis, the concentration camps in which twenty-seven thousand Boer women and children died, and who controlled South Africa's gold and diamond fields when the shooting stopped. 📖 Sources and further reading: Thomas Pakenham — The Boer War Alfred Milner Private Correspondence — Bodleian Library Oxford N.M.

“WHAT PUTIN’S STALEMATE MEANS FOR IRAN”
by Seymour Hersh
Russia’s war in Ukraine has become mired in corruption and its leader now has had no role to play in the Middle East.
Whatever one thinks of Vladimir Putin, the rudderless world is missing him now amid what amounts to an opera buffa ceasefire in the ongoing war President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu started with Iran. Iran’s fundamentalist leadership remains in power and more insistent than ever on clinging to their essentially useless stockpile of partially enriched uranium.
Putin is stuck in an at best stalemated and perhaps losing war in Ukraine and a fall from grace. He has served Russia for twenty-six years as a leader, and his speeches and public statements have often been marked by intelligence, along with much arrogance and even insolence. He was an ally of the leaders of Iran, and he supplied that regime with arms. But he sought to keep the peace and perhaps today would be making the Iranian case to Trump.

“In 2009, "America's richest people" met in super-secrecy, to plan annihilating all the rest of us”

And not a single US outlet reported it.
No doubt many readers of this post have seen that infamous moment when Bill Gates, in his 2010 TED talk, used the fake threat of too much CO2 to argue for depopulation, a murderous project that he slyly lowballed, and misrepresented as a public health program. After a lot of fake statistics (projected on the giant screen above him) demonstrating the urgency of getting the planet down to “net zero carbon,” Gates said this:
The world today has 6.8 billion people. That’s headed up to about 9 billion. Now, if we do a really great job on “vaccines,” “healthcare,” [and] “reproductive health services,” we could lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent. . . .

“This poem by Shelley has Trump's name on it”
by Mark Crispin Miller
And there is nothing Trump, or those who worship him, can do about it.
A few weeks ago, Karoline Leavitt told the press, with a straight face (the only one she has) that Donald Trump “is about the best-read president in history.” Let’s give her the benefit of the doubt, and assume that she meant American history; although, if one asked her, she might deny it, since, in her wide, empty eyes, Trump is the absolute best president in every way‚ not just in US history, but in the history of the world. Certainly that’s what he thinks; and so she thinks it, too (unless she only said it out of fear).
In any case, to say that Donald Trump is “about the best-read president” in this nation’s history is hardly less ridiculous than claiming that he’s better-read than, say, Charles de Gaulle, Nelson Mandela and/or Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. That’s a laugh; but claiming that DJT is better-read than (say) Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson and/or John F, Kennedy is just as laughable, since Trump, who read only books on business while at Wharton, and self-help guides like Norman Vincent Peale’s The Power of Positive Thinking, reads nothing now—except the press, as Leavitt clarified, claiming that he’s always scanning what the press pumps out.

“The Vaccine Cartel and US Army Are Developing 13 Hantavirus Vaccines and Gene-Therapies”
by Nicolas Hulscher
As a cruise ship outbreak unfolds, the U.S. Army’s “needle-free” DNA gene therapy platforms come into focus.
While the mass media breathlessly covers the MV Hondius — a Dutch-flagged expedition ship now quarantined off Cape Verde with multiple confirmed hantavirus cases — few are aware that there are currently 13 documented hantavirus vaccine and gene therapy programs in active development:
6 DNA “vaccines” (US Army / USAMRIID) — many of them “needle-free” jet-injector versions
3 mRNA “vaccines” (Moderna + Korea University, Chinese research team, VIDO Canada)
2 viral vector “vaccines” (UK institutions + VIDO Canada)
1 inactivated vaccine (Hantavax — already licensed and used in South Korea)
1 protein subunit vaccine (VIDO Canada)
The US Army hantavirus DNA “vaccines” are not vaccines. They are literally plasmid DNA gene-therapies. Each one contains lab-made circular DNA (plasmids) carrying the hantavirus M-segment genes that code for the virus’s surface glycoproteins (Gn and Gc). When injected (often with a needle-free jet injector or electroporation device), your own cells absorb the DNA, read it like a blueprint, and start manufacturing the pathogenic hantavirus proteins themselves.
Needless to say, I will NOT be lining up for experimental military-grade gene-therapy the Army has been tinkering with for over 20 years.
I’d rather take my chances with the natural red algae protein Griffithsin: see this.
The cruise ship situation should NOT become a pandemic. However, with major World Health Organization involvement, mass media claiming potentially infected passengers have now traveled to multiple countries, and the pre-existing 13-vaccine pipeline, the early stages are being set for hantavirus as the next plandemic operation.

The Strait of Hormuz remains closed, U.S. sanctions are still in place, the US naval blockade continues, which is aimed to squeeze Iran’s oil output and exacerbate Iran’s deep economic crisis. Bilateral negotiations have made no meaningful headway, and the gap between them remains wide. What if the U.S. resumes military strikes against Iran? Could they bring Tehran to heel? Will Trump's plan to guide stranded strips through the Strait of Hormuz work? Guests are Trita Parsi, co-founder and vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, and John Mearsheimer, professor of political science from the University of Chicago.

“Vincennes, l'université perdue”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A20S01PHQvk
by Muriel Meynard
(1:35:43)
"Dans le bois de Vincennes, jadis, il existait une université révolutionnaire. Là-bas, les fils de bonne famille pouvaient s’instruire aux côtés d'étudiants venus du monde entier, le bachelier studieux côtoyait des femmes et des hommes aux parcours sinueux. Là-bas, on expérimentait : suppression des cours magistraux, des limites d'âge, ouverture aux paysans, aux ouvriers et aux non diplômés, naissance d'un département de psychanalyse, de cinéma, création de cours du soir pour les salariés, d'un souk, d'une crèche… Autant de choses impensables pour un pouvoir gaulliste à bout de souffle, protecteur d'un monde ancien. Mai-68 est passé par là et pendant douze ans, Vincennes vit, s'agite, dérange, attirant les meilleurs professeurs du pays, marqués (très) à gauche : Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Hélène Cixous, François Châtelet, Jean-François Lyotard, Madeleine Rebérioux, Jacques Rancière ou encore Robert Castel. "La forêt pensante" devient le lieu de référence mélangeant militantisme et apprentissage. Les luttes sont quotidiennes. La castagne aussi, entre gauchistes et communistes, étudiants et policiers, anarchistes et démocrates… Mais ce joyeux chaos se trouve notamment miné par des affaires de drogue. Le prétexte idéal pour détruire Vincennes à l'été 1980. Vincennes vit toujours Que reste-t-il de ces douze années bouillonnantes ? Physiquement, rien, pas même une plaque. Vincennes a tout simplement été effacée de la surface de la terre, telle une pustule défigurant le visage lisse de la France giscardienne. Mais Vincennes reste vivante dans les esprits de ceux qui la fréquentèrent. Leurs souvenirs, associés à des images d'archives rares, nourrissent ce superbe documentaire tout à la fois touchant et politique. À travers son film, la réalisatrice Virginie Linhart – fille de Robert, qui enseigna la philosophie à Vincennes – rappelle qu’une autre façon d'enseigner, moins compétitive, moins discriminante, a existé en France. Et que ce modèle a fonctionné."

“In Iran, at the site of the worst US war crime since My Lai”
by The Grayzone
(8:15)
On the first day of the unprovoked US-Israeli War on
Iran, the Pentagon launched a double-tap Tomahawk missile strike on the
Shajareh Tayyebeh Elementary School in Minab, obliterating the building and
slaughtering 155 people — 120 of whom were small children.
With the Trump administration still refusing to acknowledge its role in the
worst US military massacre since My Lai, The Grayzone’s Wyatt Reed went to
Minab to investigate the scene of the crime firsthand.
