USA has been using tariffs, embargoes and sanctions at such an insane level to wage war on small non-Western nations for so long a lot of them have developed a trade infrastructure to survive even harsh ones. Re: large nations like China & Russia it now harms USA the most lol Protectionism isn't a magic button that automatically destroys a foreign nations economy without causing any side effects in the nation being "protected."

In the late 1980s & throughout the 90s, Jeffrey Epstein became friends with Donald Trump & Bill Clinton. Simultaneously, Trump & Epstein built an international sex trafficking ring through modeling agencies. This ring catered to the bourgeoisie & State bureaucracy Image
Image
The sex ring of the late 80s & 90s was made possible in large part by the destruction of the Eastern Bloc & the "opening" of nations in the USSR & SRFY to Western capital. Both the modeling industry & the sex trade grew exponentially thanks to Eastern European women Image

Reading about financial scams that prefigured the larger '08 crash (Madoff, Tyco, Enron, WorldCom), & the way the trillions of pension dollars contribute massively to the size of these frauds &, in turn, this size ends up draining billions from the pensions during their crash Pension systems under capitalism become a cornerstone of "class collaboration" policy & aspirations, it's used (abused?) by these either partially or wholly fictitious firms to inflate their stock or some other shenanigan, then the carrot gets jerked back for millions of workers

It's very weird to think about how in the late 90s & early 2000s & even into the 2010s pre-MeToo, several figures who were more or less known to be rapists were made into parodies of themselves, including that, on TV/movies. I remember Ron Jeremy in particular doing this a lot Image

It's also different kind of because Weinstein isn't playing himself he's being portrayed by someone else but Harvey Weingard on Entourage is in the same sort of spectrum I think. Like it's a big joke this dude's abusive as shit & generally a piece of shit its hilarious Image

"George Nader, the Lebanese-American businessman and convicted paedophile...organised a secret summit of Arab leaders on a yacht in the Red Sea in late 2015." The goal was to supplant the Arab League & the Gulf Cooperation Council middleeasteye.net/news/exclusive… x.com/The_Wub_/statu…Image The leaders of Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Bahrain & Jordan attended the yacht meeting. These nations+Libya, were to form "the nucleus of pro US & pro-Israel states." The proposed group was to lobby for more open aggression towards Iran & Turkey from USA & Israel Image

Strange thing about George Nader, beyond the fact that he remained employed as a NATO goon long after several charges & prison time re: CSA, is the fact that at the same time he was helping Israel & Saudi Arabia influence the Trump camp, he was giving millions to Hillary 2016 Image At this point I think it's fair to say the Trump presidency was a Hillary presidency & the whole 2016 election being "the most important ever!" & Russiagate & everything else was a giant psyop

Went down a bit of a rabbit hole with the Trump administration's Presidential pardons. All Presidents use the pardon to save their friends & benefactors, but Trump's pardons are just kind of funny for how blatantly corrupt they are. Short thread incoming Image Most of the pardons issued by Trump came in the closing days of his term in 2021. At that time, Trump took a "transactional approach" to clemency which "sidelined low-level offenders" & elevated either those who were friends or those who bought a pardon archive.is/fWawfImage

Heidi Fleiss, the female pimp turned television personality referred to as "the Hollywood Madam", employed a man named Jacob Orgad as an "enforcer & procurer." At one time, Orgad was the largest Israeli trafficker of MDMA in the USA, as well as a pimp in his own right Image
Image
Image
Image
Orgad, who worked with the leaders of the Gambino crime family, was rumored to be Mossad, though US Customs claims there is no evidence for this. However, his story recalls the "Israeli art student" ring of Israeli intelligence, in the USA prior to 9/11, which also moved MDMA Image

In 2014, protests against the murder of Michael Brown by Darren Wilson were organized in Ferguson, Missouri with subsequent demonstrations catalyzing the Black Lives Matter movement. By 2020, at least 7 organizers of BLM's first generation had died under strange circumstances In 2016, Darren Seals, one of the earliest participants in the Ferguson protests, was found shout to death inside a car that had been set on fire. Prior to this, Seals said that police had stopped him & warned him to "pick his enemies better" blurredbylines.com/blog/ferguson-…Image

2 recent articles about Opus Dei have been brought to my attention. The first has to do with the criminal investigation into the Argentinian branch on charges of human trafficking, mostly of young women & teenage girls. These women were [allegedly] slaves to the Catholic cult Image
Image
Image
The 2nd article is even more recent & details the Vatican-sanctioned cult's relationship to Franco's government in Falangist Spain. Opus Dei acquired so much power under Franco that even the dictator's fellow Falangists became worried. One committed suicide after denouncing them Image

For some reason there are Leftists who would argue against this but you can not convince me that the hegemonic ideological position in the NATO bloc today is not "Judeo-Christianity is 'natural', Islam is 'unnatural', the former is apolitical, the latter is Communism." The New Atheists themselves often argued the former position by insisting, as Sam Harris often did, that "Judeo-Christian values" produce the most positive social outcomes so even if society is fully secularized those values should be retained while Islam should be combatted

"To deal in dollars, financial institutions must often borrow, however temporarily, from US counterparts and comply with the rules of the US government. That makes the Treasury Department...the gatekeeper to the world’s banking operations." archive.is/ceuOF#selectio…
Image After 9/11 "Congress enacted legislation to compel financial institutions to maintain records of consumer transactions & hand them over to law enforcement" & "the rise of digital banking gave new insights into the worldwide flow of money." US Treasury Dept. benefits immensely Image

Casey Wasserman is married to Laura Ziffren. That means that the grandson of Lew Wasserman & the granddaughter of Paul Ziffren, another Hollywood mogul from the National Crime Syndicate, are spouses. Both worked alongside Sidney Korshak as part of "the Three Redwoods"

Image
Image
As Gus Russo writes in Supermob, Paul Ziffren became a "kingmaker" for California Democrats. "Ziffren's early strength came from his ability to raise money for Democratic candidates." From 1953 until his death, Ziffren "reinvented" California's statewide Democratic Party. Image

Lew Wasserman's grandson, Casey, flew on the Lolita Express & was in Epstein's black book. He gives $10,000s (at least) to the Democrats every year & has a personal friendship with Bill Clinton. Back in July of this year, Clinton & Nancy Pelosi attended Casey Wasserman's birthday
Image Would it surprise you to learn that the name of the guy who planned this birthday party was "Ben Bourgeois" Image

In 2018, of the $4 million+ in federal donations made by top Hollywood executives & entertainers, "99.7 percent went to Democrats & Democratic-leaning political action committees or organizations" These figures are all Zionists or "fellow travelers" of Zionism. Lets get into this Image Bill Maher, Ari Emanuel & Patrick Whitesell of sports company Endeavor, talent agent execs & filmmaker Steven Spielberg were among the top contributors.

In 2019, Maher denounced Boycott, Divestment & Sanction & has criticized Obama for apparently not being anti-Hamas enough Image

Remember Carbyne? The surveillance tech company started by members of Israel's Unit 8200 (military intel/Mossad unit that has deep ties to Silicon Valley)? Whose board included Peter Thiel, Erik Prince, Ehud Barak, Jeffrey Epstein, Michael Chertoff & Michael Cohen?
Image Remember how PROMIS, which was the software that inspired modern government surveillance software around the world, including PRISM, was sold to governments around the world by Robert Maxwell & its main use was helping NATO & Israel track down & kill anti-imperialists?

The current narrative re Haitian immigrants conveniently leaves out the literal and metaphorical rape of Haiti that the United Nations has overseen on behalf of the United States for decades. All in the name of "fighting gangs" just like the current imperialist invasion Insofar as organized crime does exist in Haiti (IE actual gangs, not just armed groups referred to as gangs by the media) they 1)Are often created by the imperialists, such as the CIA 2)Are aligned with forces in Haiti's corrupt federal government

Kamala Harris recently accepted the endorsement of Dick Cheney & his family. Many who claim Copmala will do some sort of "harm reduction" insist this is irrelevant because Cheney was, in their mind, not a "Fascist" like Trump. This is a double standard for several reasons For starters, before he became Vice President, Cheney's voting record in Congress was in line with the politics of the Trump supporters he now refers to as "threats to American democracy." One source from 2000 points out his record is "to the right of even Newt Gingrich" Image

I think the difference between "historically progressive" nationalism & reactionary patriotism is twofold. One recognizes that nations aren't immutable & are "contingent" in a sense, the other doesn't. One is objectively anti-imperialist while the other perpetuates imperialism There are still problems here. 1st, "historically progressive" is difficult to define re: "nationalism" & I really use it for lack of a better phrase. Hypothetically, there could perhaps also be neither pro nor anti-imperialist nations. But I think this is a good starting point

Joseph Benersky notes that many US military officers liked the "Khazar Jews" myth, which implies they thought there were "Good Jews" closer to WASPs/'"Aryans" & Bad Jews from "the East." I think this is an ancestor to the narrative I note here, but with Zionist now="Good"

Image

I've seen the "Khazar Jews" myth resurrected among some NAFO-adjacent people to explain why Russia invaded Ukraine. The aligns with the co-founder of Azov's proclamation that he would rather be "Zhido-Banderite than Zhido-Muscovite" & general anti-Russian sentiment post-Maidan
