Extreme left and extreme right agree Epstein is the most important issue

It’s the silly season again. When the extremes agree on anything, normal people better watch out.

The Jeffrey Epstein issue has been in the public space for some 20 years. Now all of a sudden Jaime Raskin and Tucker Qatarlson agree that the Epstein files must be released RIGHT NOW! No redactions! Raw allegations without supporting evidence are fine! Ruin people’s reputations unjustly - fine!

The contact list has already been publicized, and consists largely of entertainers and a few retired politicians. But every smart person - OK, every loudmouth - “knows” that Epstein was in “intel”. You know what that means, right? Mossad. Not CIA? After all, Epstein was American. Ah, but you see Epstein was Jewish. Definitely Mossad. Look how often Epstein met with the FORMER Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak. That proves the case!

Allegedly, Epstein’s biggest impact may have been in the financial world, through money laundering, not human trafficking. President Trump may know about threats to many countries that may occur if these files are revealed. But we already decided that there is a pedophile cabal (ignoring the transparent pedophile Joe Biden), so that’s what we are after.

I shouldn’t have to state the obvious, that I hope the Justice Department prosecutes anyone who abused a child, including Biden.

Now comes the Wall Street Journal, claiming that Donald Trump (who is hated by the WSJ for defending Americans) wrote a naughty birthday card to Epstein 20 years ago, before Epstein was charged with a crime. The WSJ did not show us the card, but we can trust them. Right? Recall that the WSJ desperately wants open borders and free trade: no wall, no protective tariffs, America last.

In short, we have a classic conspiracy theory with its attendant logical fallacies. The main such fallacies are shifting the burden of proof, and unfalsifiability. The latter is like what happens when a DEI supporter informs you that if you deny you are racist, that only proves you are racist.

Here, the narrative tells us that if there is no evidence that da Jooz killed JFK, knocked down the Twin Towers, or ran Jeffrey Epstein as an intelligence asset, well, that only PROVES how wicked da Jooz are for covering up their assumed crimes. We assume the conclusion and reject any lack of evidence. Confirmation bias, anyone?

The far left and the far right are being driven equally crazy over this issue, which will be replaced by some other issue when the tumult dies down. Honestly, if the deep state had such evidence against Trump, do you not believe they would have used it before, such as during the 2024 election?

Today, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie joined Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and 2 other Democrats to try to end American military assistance to Israel; 422 representatives voted against these 6. What does that tell you? “AIPAC really controls our government!” Or - maybe the circle diagram above is correct?

Candace Owens bravely stated yesterday that she refuses to be “a student of Freud’s Kabbalah”. Pause. Breathe. What on earth does that mean? Freud’s Kabbalah? What is that? Sigmund Freud was secular, not religious. It is almost certain that he never studied Kabbalah, much less created his own Kabbalah.

How can we be certain that blood-libeling Owens, Holocaust-denying Qatarlson, and their ilk, are not themselves assets of the deep state, to split the broadly pro-Israel MAGA camp? Unless maybe they are simple psychotics as they appear - or perhaps unreformed leftists, as they used to be. Besides those two, I have no more use for Steve Bannon, Charlie Kirk, or Megyn Kelly: all these people pretending to be gatekeepers for MAGA purity.

I want transparency on the assassinations of JFK, MLK, and RFK; TWA 800; 9/11; Russiagate; the origins of COVID; the 2020 election. Think long and hard about who is more likely to provide you that transparency before you announce, like an idiot, that you will sit out the 2026 elections. The Democrats won’t.
