The art of deflection reaches new heights: Trump claims "they spied on my campaign" while his billionaire backers were literally taking meetings with Putin's UN ambassador via Jeffrey Epstein. "Nothing memorable" about geopolitics with a convicted pedophile? Only in this admin.  

Epstein's $40M investment in Thiel's Valar Ventures (now $170M) wasn't just financial alchemy—it bought access to Russia's diplomatic core. Barrack's 2016 lunch with Churkin & Epstein's September 2016 Woody Allen soirée paved his path to becoming Ambassador to Türkiye, despite federal charges of UAE influence-peddling. Churkin’s sudden 2017 death left Epstein emailing Thiel: “Life is short; start with dessert.”  

We teach kids to resist bullies, then appoint those who break bread with Putin’s envoys & Epstein’s financiers. The dessert? Power. The check? Democracy.
