excerpt of an excellent analysis - The Epstein leaks <https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/9.6980801> have reopened a door many in Washington hoped would remain sealed. Not the door of gossip - though the media is content to drown the public in that - but the door that leads into the machinery of American power.
These leaks do not merely reveal the fall of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. They expose an unholy triangle of money, politics and sex, whose central thread leads to a foreign influence network that has learned to govern the world’s most powerful nation through seduction, dependence and capture. This is not a conspiracy theory. It is not an antisemitic <https://www.middleeasteye.net/topics/antisemitism> delusion. It is what the documents show, and what Washington’s behaviour confirms. And it is what the Epstein files illuminate with violent clarity. ………………. No empire in history has subordinated its grand strategy to the anxieties of a much smaller state - except an empire whose elites are compromised, corrupted and controlled. “Democracy” has become a performance staged by a political class whose private lives make them permanently vulnerable. This is the true meaning of the Epstein leaks: they expose not a single predator, but a system built on moral decay, foreign influence, intelligence engineering and elite complicity. Epstein was not an anomaly. He was the model. Trump remains its clearest illustration - a man who wrapped himself in patriotism while tethered to foreign influence and moral ruin. His “America First” movement was theatre. The truth was always Israel First. And so the US confronts a question that can no longer be buried: who governs the country - its elected officials, or the foreign network that owns their secrets, funds their campaigns, and exploits their corruption? How can a nation claim sovereignty when its leaders are so easily compromised? How can a republic claim legitimacy when its elites are so cheaply bought? How can a superpower lead the world when it cannot even govern itself? When does the US insist - not in slogans, but in action - that its government belongs to its people, not to Tel Aviv? *https://portside.org/2025-11-25/epstein-saga-exposes-israels-iron-grip-us-power <https://portside.org/2025-11-25/epstein-saga-exposes-israels-iron-grip-us-power>* -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
