Fallout from Trump's shock announcement that 'Epstein had no clients' continues, with the clamor for truth and justice from within his supporter base only growing. This week on NewsReal, we look at the meteoric and mythic rise of this ultra-wealthy 'money-manager', his obvious importance to Israeli interests, and note the impact mention of his very name is having on quelling dissent among Western leaders and influential people when it comes to speaking out about the genocide in Gaza, the single worst crime against humanity since WW2.

''What Are They Hiding?': Republicans Block Vote to Release Epstein Files' [Link]
Proof that the politicians are controlled. Certainly there is plenty of Democrat dirt in those Epstein Files with the Clintons...

And speaking of being beholden to the devil [Link]

Shamir claims that he had never personally experienced anti-Semitism, so he decided to explore this issue globally. Through his filmmaking journey, he shines a bright light on the topic of anti-Semitism in the modern world, highlighting its impact on Israeli and U.S. politics. He also examines the debate surrounding the exaggeration—or weaponization—of claims of anti-Semitism to stifle critiques of Israel.

In addition, the piece offers unique insights into the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). Defamation handles, with extraordinary humor and grace, a topic many of us are uncomfortable discussing. It is essential watching to help distinguish between Judaism and those who would try to misuse a great religion and tradition as air cover in the global game of power politics.

At about the 23-24 minute mark Joe asks Niall who is Epstein. "No one knows." Interesting. One analyst calls him a "construct" , as he was Framed as a financial investor/asset manager and insider.

Brave AI: " Jeffrey Epstein was a financier known for managing the assets of high-net-worth individuals, particularly billionaires. He began his career in finance after leaving his teaching job at the Dalton School in 1976 and joined Bear Stearns, where he eventually became a limited partner. In 1988, Epstein founded his financial management firm, J. Epstein & Company, which he claimed managed assets exclusively for billionaires. One of his most notable clients was Leslie H. Wexner, the billionaire retail magnate and founder of L Brands, which included Victoria’s Secret."

What does it mean? Epstein was an actor playing the part as the front man for rich people like Wexner.

Brave AI: " Epstein's financial dealings were often cloaked in secrecy, and he maintained accounts in offshore tax havens. According to the Miami Herald's investigation of the Swiss Leaks and Paradise Papers, Epstein had multiple financial accounts with millions of dollars in offshore locations and was a client of Appleby, a Bermuda-based law firm specializing in offshore financial services."

Dwoods44 · 2025-07-26T05:21:06Z

Dwoods44 It looks like Epstein is a narcissist psychopath who can play others emotions and desires.

Dwoods44 · 2025-07-26T06:23:43Z

Dwoods44 In the photos of Epstein he was clearly charismatic. What does that mean? He could broadcast some kind of energy(sexual?) that connected with the people he wanted to influence. Invisible but real.

Dwoods44 · 2025-07-26T07:40:03Z

Out-of-the-box. Let's say Epstein is a "construct" designed exactly to do what he has done. Sex trafficking, money laundering, blackmail, high-profile influence.

From that point of view his teaching at a rich man's school would enable him to befriend the youth, gain influence and the youth would confide family secrets of their parents. Sexual escapades for example. Perhaps he was chosen by a handler/mentor because Epstein has an ability to influence people energetically.

From that point, he takes the job with a financial company where he can learn about the secrets of the rich regarding finances - off-shore accounts, money laundering,

Then he launches his own company catering to the rich, where he can offer off-shore accounts and money laundering, and solve sticky problems the rich may have.

He meets Ghislaine, perhaps under the direction of Robert Maxwell (Mossad connection), and they together create the sex-trafficking blackmail methods and hook in the gulllible and the depraved.

The question then would be, who is the handler, who runs the show.

Dwoods44 · 2025-07-26T08:06:21Z

Dwoods44 One of the interesting connections, Donald Barr who was the headmaster of the school Epstein taught at, is also the father of Bill Barr, former Attorney General.

And chatGPT: "In 1973, Donald Barr published Space Relations: A Slightly Gothic Interplanetary Tale , a sci-fi novel depicting a future oligarchy engaging in sexual slavery—including forced sexual acts involving minors (“teenage girls”) used for breeding and entertainment . Critics have called it highly disturbing due to its depiction of rape, child trafficking, and sexual predation".

Jeffrey Epstein taught at the Dalton School in New York City from 1973 to 1975. Bill Barr would have been 23 years old, slightly older than Epstein.

Gee whiz, I wonder if Epstein read his book...

TBoris · 2025-07-26T13:10:56Z

Dwoods44 who is the handler, who runs the show

Mossad/Maxwell from the beginning(not the other way around) with the other intel agencies(standard operating procedure to setup honey traps including Russian female agents during WWII). These politicians are controlled and that predated and continues after Epstein. Epstein is a window into the system not a one off psychopath opportunist "corruption".

Watch this interview with CAF and the Health Ranger about 14 minutes in. Where CAF explains how the system works: [Link]

TBoris · 2025-07-26T13:20:05Z

Dwoods44 About 20 minutes in CAF [Link] explains the crime syndicate led by Netanyahu. Thus the system of blackmail that Epstein provided a window into. Also see 'One Nation Under Blackmail' by Whitney Webb.

Dwoods44 · 2025-07-27T05:46:36Z

TBoris Thanks for the links. I respect Catherine Austin Fitts analyses as she is one of the best financial minds reporting in our time. She has reported on the 9/11 false flag for a number of years.

In this case, I don't think she sees the bigger picture of Trump and team dismantling the globalist power structure. As I have stated, if Trump has a globalist agenda, it is a different globalist agenda than the U.N. Agenda 2030 or WEF. The context, we see constant attacks on Trump for the last 13 years.

TBoris · 2025-07-28T13:00:46Z

Dwoods44

You are an ardent supporter of Trump, and I would like you to be correct, but I don't see any evidence at all that would compel me to believe that Trump and team is going against anything other than when the media doesn't give him what he wants like high approval ratings for low end performance.

This 300-Year-Old Letter Reveals the Pattern Wicked Men Use to Destroy a Country by Truthstream Media [Link]

Eventide · 2025-08-07T14:50:01Z

parzival

the Pattern Wicked Men Use to Destroy a Country

Yeah, except now they're installing the technological means to actually surveil and control every individual. A corrupt person's death won't enable reprieve from either himself or his imposed system. Totalitarianism can be permanent now. Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run. Either resist now , or get ready to enjoy enslavement. What to do: Use cash to slow down implementation of digital money, find a community with which to implement systems of barter/trade, support small farms, learn a valuable skill that you can contribute to your community, refuse to get a National ID (or its "Real ID" state-level precursor), avoid biometric identification systems (such as facial recognition at airports), stay informed, turn savings into assets with real value to yourself and others (land, structures, tools, silver/gold, small business support). Be ready to endure some harsh consequences for your "line in the sand" decisions, and don't suffer in silence. Use your voice!

Eventide · 2025-08-07T15:17:17Z

Eventide About using cash - they've stopped making pennies, which could make it more difficult for businesses to make change. As pennies become scarce, this may cause more of them to refuse to accept cash, which is probably the point. Trends are actually going toward the use of cash because the debit/credit card fees are onerous, and businesses are actually encouraging or even rewarding use of cash by offering small discounts. Also, people are becoming more aware of the dangers of centralized control of digital money. The govt will likely want to reverse that trend. Look for it to become legal soon for businesses to refuse cash, or for the cost of accepting debit/credit cards to be lowered, or for the government to stop making nickels as well (I've already seen articles bemoaning the cost of making nickels).

If you are a business owner, consider selling goods and services in denominations that don't require the use of pennies or nickels! At the very least, please end the "$15.99" crap and also consider pricing all goods and services in dollar/quarter/dime denominations.

And, business owners, please teach your second-year algebra-educated employees how to count up to make change.

Eventide All very good suggestions! Resistance will carry the day until the current paradigm collapses... And it will through some partially foreseen or unforeseen event(s).

Dwoods44 He references, Brave AI: " The Canadian Clarity Act, officially known as Bill C-20, is a federal law enacted in 2000 that outlines the conditions under which the Government of Canada would engage in negotiations with a province seeking to secede. It was introduced in response to the 1995 Quebec referendum, where the province narrowly voted against independence, highlighting the need for clear guidelines on secession. The act requires a clear majority in a referendum and ensures that the federal government has a role in determining the clarity of the referendum question before negotiations can begin."

I agree, what the people fail to grasp is that they are under no obligation to follow the orders of those in political office, most especially, if the rules they hatch are inimical to the interests of the very people they are privileged to serve.

What reality do we live in? We know the mockingbird media runs the MSM. We know some alternative media is simply controlled opposition. The focus of the day is Epstein and the flip-flop, most assuming Trump is protecting himself. Trump requests the grand jury files be released. Then Maxwell agrees to identify 100 clients, a real list (vetting required).

As I have noted before, my focus on SOTT has been how the manipulation of people through beliefs is done. My goal, if you see the mechanisms you become free of those mechanism at least partly.

I came across Josh Stylman on substack through a parzival link. Except for one of the articles he wrote, he has a down to earth style of discussing a subject that engages the reader.

Here is a link to his latest on substack, [Link]
Questions I have had concern how identity is formed and manipulated. Woke is an example. Stylman is this article discusses identity and how our teenagers are being taught that identity is the "image" you create as in influencers on Tik-tok, instagram, etc.

Many excellent quotes: " We've built a system that teaches them to treat their lives like content(image). That tells them: if you're not being seen, you're not really here(real). That your private self has no value unless it's validated by strangers. We've stripped away something essential—the right to exist without an audience." We've stripped away developing an identity that can connect to something higher.

Dwoods44 · 2025-08-05T06:08:23Z

Transcript quote (note that the audio blanks out some words and these are also not in the transcript):

"My great grandfather, according to my father, was Walt Disney before he moved to the United States. His name was Artur Bicke A R T U R B I C K E. And his twin sister, who he had children with, who I am descended from, was named Minnie. That’s where we get Mickey and Minnie Mouse. It’s very cute, right? Except for when you consider the abuse that I suspect is still happening to children who go into the entertainment industry. Children who are born into it.

My father was abused by his parents. And I was raised going to these giant ____ where I would meet other children who were put on television. I was raised getting taken to Bohemian Grove where I was ______ after a ceremonial corpse burning Alex Jones has talked about. And my memories of these circumstances are still somewhat fragmented. These assaults happened a couple times a month, and I’m blessed not to remember every detail."

Dwoods44 · 2025-08-05T06:19:32Z

Dwoods44 Another quote on the use of psychedlics to cover the abuse.

"You know, myths that can be perpetuated by the psychedelic nature of the tool that they use to abuse victims, which is used to delegitimize people who catch on to what they have been doing. And to be truthful, it was a reason I was anxious to come on here. You know, when people talk about seeing men turn into lizards, it makes everything seem a little bit more delegitimate.

Now, when someone has been given a powerful drug, their minds can experience something like that. They can witness something like that. And it’s something that kept me very confused as a child. I’m in the material world, in this plane. I’m being assaulted by my father, my uncles, my cousins. But my mind is somewhere else. My mind is going on this fantasy ride. And when I awake, I’m very confused."

The great game, made me think about America's games like pro football spectacles.

A perspective. One of the "events" I have been expecting over the last year is a false flag of some sort: cyberattack, electrical grid attack, a new plandemic, alien invasion, meteor strike, super storm, or a terrorist attack on a major city. It would need to be parlayed into war.

A movie that describes such a false flag, combines the football spectacle with a Baltimore city false flag atomic bomb attack - The Sum of All Fears. This takes a lost nuclear weapon from Israel, sold to an arms dealer, sold to those who see a war between Russia and the USA as serving their political and financial gain to create an engaging movie that shows how events could unfold.

Because American football season begins this weekend and there have been reports over the years of missing nuclear weapons and enriched plutonium, and such an event would serve the globalists, be aware.
