This isn't a teaser—it's just an acknowledgment that the next PROOF report is taking a while and there's a good reason. The Epstein Scandal isn't primarily a sex scandal. You don't understand how powerful and well-connected this man was.

This is a global scandal and it is scary.

I was in the Epstein-killed-himself camp. I am no longer. Moreover, I feel like—as a former federal criminal investigator—I have a good sense of who had him killed. They are still in power. People must prepare themselves for a sea change in how we think about the Epstein Scandal.

To be clear, I do think the evidence Trump has raped kids increasing by the day. So when I say his primary reason for wanting/needing to hide the truth of the Epstein Files—of which we're now confirmed to have seen only 2%— is geopolitical, that should tell you how scary this is.

I think any researchers who are looking in the right places in the Files—which I strongly believe PROOF is—no longer believe Trump got the 77K votes in three states that won him the presidency in 2016 under his own steam. Illegal foreign assistance was *well* beyond what we knew.

For all that I've been an ardent, strident Donald Trump critic, I've *also* been in the Trump-would've-won-2016-either-way camp.

I am no longer.

Once you understand that Jeffrey Epstein never left Trump's inner circle, and who he was connected to, your whole worldview changes.

You're not scared enough of Jared Kushner. I've written thousands of pages about the political career and political scandals of Donald Trump, and even I underestimated him. He's as dangerous as Trump, as dangerous as Putin, as dangerous as MBS and MBZ. He's a fucking monster.

Because I research and write a certain way, I never publish snippets of research just to get new subscribers. I write digital novellas. Please understand that that's the reason for the delay in the next report.

However savvy you think you are about Donald Trump, it'll shock you.

The upshot: no matter how old you are, this is the biggest scandal of your lifetime. It's so encompassing that a single author could publish many—*many*—books about it. It will be unfolding for years. You are not wrong to obsess over it. You are not wrong to see a global network.
