Latest / The Vault: The Epstein Files / Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein Was The Tip Of The Human Trafficking Iceberg (10/29/26)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: About how Jeffrey Epstein's arrest back in July was just
- 0:07Speaker 1: a look inside of the window at the bigger problem
- 0:11Speaker 1: that is human trafficking this is an issue that is
- 0:17Speaker 1: affecting every corner of the globe no matter your continent
- 0:21Speaker 1: no matter your country this is an issue and I
- 0:26Speaker 1: don't think that in the year 2020 pressing into 2021,
- 0:30Speaker 1: that there should be any form of slavery anywhere in
- 0:33Speaker 1: the world, folks. I think that we should all be
- 0:37Speaker 1: free to make our own decisions and live our own
- 0:39Speaker 1: lives and chase our own dreams. But unfortunately, for millions
- 0:44Speaker 1: of people and children around the world, that's not the case.
- 0:50Speaker 1: They aren't chasing their dreams the way me or you are.
- 0:53Speaker 1: They aren't waking up every day with things to look
- 0:56Speaker 1: forward to. Instead, they're caught up in a never-ending cycle
- 1:00Speaker 1: of abuse until their captors decide that they are no
- 1:06Speaker 1: longer worth the trouble. And that's just the sad facts
- 1:10Speaker 1: of the situation. And that's why when I talk about
- 1:13Speaker 1: the unnamed girls in the Jeffrey Epstein case and wonder
- 1:18Speaker 1: what happened to them, what we're going to hear in
- 1:20Speaker 1: this article is one of the reasons why. You know,
- 1:25Speaker 1: it's nothing for a trafficking ring to kill one of
- 1:29Speaker 1: these girls that are being trafficked by them if they
- 1:31Speaker 1: don't comply with orders. And again, please remember, I'm not
- 1:36Speaker 1: saying that's what happened in this Epstein case. I don't know, right?
- 1:39Speaker 1: None of us know for sure. That's what we're doing here.
- 1:42Speaker 1: That's why we're here every day trying to put the
- 1:44Speaker 1: pieces together. But me, I don't feel comfortable leaving stones unturned.
- 1:50Speaker 1: I don't feel comfortable not chasing leads. And when we
- 1:55Speaker 1: already know that trafficking rings around the world have used
- 1:59Speaker 1: the behavior of, let's say, getting rid of girls that
- 2:04Speaker 1: they find are noncompliant or not useful anymore, well, wouldn't
- 2:11Speaker 1: that be a question that we would have to ask
- 2:13Speaker 1: about a trafficking ring that has been involved in at
- 2:16Speaker 1: least literally thousands of girls trafficked according to reports? from
- 2:21Speaker 1: numerous continents, how hard would it be to track down
- 2:25Speaker 1: a girl from Belarus or Estonia or Lithuania? Do you
- 2:30Speaker 1: really think that they have a bunch of systems in
- 2:34Speaker 1: place like in Western countries, databases where these girls are
- 2:38Speaker 1: put through and they have an FBI agency that's looking
- 2:41Speaker 1: for them or whatever? That's not happening. These countries are
- 2:44Speaker 1: lucky that they can eat food at night for the
- 2:46Speaker 1: most part. So when I talk about the unnamed girls,
- 2:52Speaker 1: that's what I'm talking about, right? What about the girls
- 2:54Speaker 1: that had no family or nobody that's come forward? When
- 2:57Speaker 1: we hear that it's been literally thousands of girls and
- 3:01Speaker 1: we have only heard from a hundred or so, then
- 3:04Speaker 1: you have to wonder, at least I have to wonder,
- 3:08Speaker 1: what in the hell happened to the rest of those girls?
- 3:11Speaker 1: And when you start looking into sex trafficking rings and
- 3:13Speaker 1: you see what happens to these girls on a larger scale,
- 3:19Speaker 1: larger than you would want to see number, well, you,
- 3:23Speaker 1: you have to ask those questions. And that has definitely
- 3:26Speaker 1: been a path I've been on for a very long
- 3:28Speaker 1: time with the Jeffrey Epstein case, and especially in New Mexico,
- 3:32Speaker 1: after going there myself and seeing how vast it was
- 3:35Speaker 1: and seeing how desolate it was. And the old adage
- 3:39Speaker 1: came up in my mind as I was driving there, uh,
- 3:44Speaker 1: And I couldn't help but keep thinking this, something that
- 3:46Speaker 1: I would think about all the time when I'd be
- 3:48Speaker 1: driving from.
- 3:48Speaker 2: Vegas to California.
- 3:51Speaker 1: There's a portion when you're driving from Vegas to California
- 3:55Speaker 1: on the I-15 that some people call the largest graveyard
- 3:58Speaker 1: in the world because of all of the bodies that
- 4:02Speaker 1: are buried out there. Nobody's ever going to find them.
- 4:05Speaker 1: And it's very comparable on the ride from Santa Fe
- 4:10Speaker 1: to the ride to Stanley, where Zorro Ranch is. It's
- 4:15Speaker 1: a very similar landscape. So, you know, that was one
- 4:20Speaker 1: thing that crossed my mind for sure when I was
- 4:23Speaker 1: driving down to Zorro Ranch. And again, there's no evidence
- 4:26Speaker 1: that that occurred, right? There's nobody that's come forward and
- 4:28Speaker 1: said any of these girls were killed or anything like that.
- 4:31Speaker 1: But when you look at the overall story of sex trafficking...
- 4:37Speaker 1: and you understand that that is something that occurs very
- 4:40Speaker 1: frequently in these other trafficking rings, I would have to
- 4:44Speaker 1: think that it is something that is very possible that
- 4:48Speaker 1: it could have occurred at some point or in some capacity.
- 4:56Speaker 1: Because there are just way too many unanswered questions as
- 5:01Speaker 1: far as these unnamed girls go. So that leads us
- 5:05Speaker 1: into our article today. Our article is from theconversation.com. And
- 5:11Speaker 1: this article was authored by Larissa Christensen, Nadine McKillop, Suzanne
- 5:18Speaker 1: Raymond McHugh. And it was authored on July 12th of 2019. Headline,
- 5:26Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein's arrest is the tip of the iceberg. Human
- 5:30Speaker 1: trafficking is the world's fastest growing crime. And when you
- 5:34Speaker 1: read a headline like that, you say to yourself, holy shit,
- 5:36Speaker 1: how is that even possible? The fastest world, the fastest
- 5:40Speaker 1: growing crime in the world? With all the different licks
- 5:44Speaker 1: people have out there, all the different ways people have
- 5:47Speaker 1: to make dough, this is the fastest growing crime in
- 5:50Speaker 1: the world? And if that doesn't depress you, if that
- 5:55Speaker 1: doesn't make you sick, I don't know what will, folks.
- 5:58Speaker 1: Because from where I'm sitting... The trade, being part of
- 6:02Speaker 1: the trade of human flesh is so much worse than
- 6:05Speaker 1: being involved in drugs that I can't even begin to
- 6:08Speaker 1: explain to you how much worse I think it is.
- 6:13Speaker 1: And yet here we are with these drug dealers and
- 6:16Speaker 1: these cartel members and organized crime members. And look, don't
- 6:19Speaker 1: get it twisted. I'm not sticking up for them. They're
- 6:22Speaker 1: reprehensible people, right? No doubt about it. But why should
- 6:26Speaker 1: they be getting hit with RICO charges and a guy
- 6:28Speaker 1: like Epstein not getting hit with them? Because at the
- 6:32Speaker 1: end of the day, we know that Jeffrey Epstein was
- 6:35Speaker 1: not doing this alone. And we know that Ghislaine Maxwell
- 6:39Speaker 1: was not doing this alone. Jeffrey Epstein, a powerfully connected
- 6:44Speaker 1: American financier, pedophile... is facing charges of sex trafficking, bringing
- 6:49Speaker 1: underage girls as young as 14 years old into homes
- 6:53Speaker 1: in various locations across the U.S. And we even have
- 6:56Speaker 1: reports from 11 to 12 years old down in the
- 6:59Speaker 1: Virgin Islands, right? So this is a man whose disgusting
- 7:04Speaker 1: proclivities range from about 11 or 12 up to about 16, 17-ish.
- 7:12Speaker 2: And then he.
- 7:12Speaker 1: Started to lose interest, right? He reportedly had a network
- 7:17Speaker 1: of more than 50 victims and evidence against him included
- 7:21Speaker 1: hundreds of lewd photographs of girls and young women. Well,
- 7:25Speaker 1: times that 50 by about 20 and that's probably a
- 7:30Speaker 1: closer number, right? Accusations against high-profile people such as Epstein
- 7:36Speaker 1: temporarily raise awareness of this significant human rights violation. But
- 7:41Speaker 1: regardless of the outcome of this case, the ugly truth
- 7:44Speaker 1: is This is just the tip of the iceberg. And
- 7:47Speaker 1: it really is.
- 7:48Speaker 2: But I will say this. It's a catalyst for me.
- 7:51Speaker 1: I would have never, ever, ever, ever. Let me tell you, folks,
- 7:54Speaker 1: and be very honest with you. I wouldn't even looked
- 7:57Speaker 1: at these kind of articles prior to jumping into this case.
- 8:01Speaker 1: It was not in my wheelhouse. It was not something
- 8:04Speaker 1: I was really interested in. Maybe subconsciously, I found it
- 8:07Speaker 1: so abhorrent that I wanted nothing to do with it.
- 8:10Speaker 1: But that's not an excuse that cuts it anymore, right?
- 8:13Speaker 1: So what, we're all going to stand on the sidelines
- 8:15Speaker 1: if we're uncomfortable with something?
- 8:18Speaker 2: Let me tell you what.
- 8:19Speaker 1: The greatest day in my life is when I learned
- 8:23Speaker 1: how to be comfortable being uncomfortable. And when that happens,
- 8:28Speaker 1: you really start to learn that you most certainly do
- 8:32Speaker 1: not have all of the answers. And your worldview from
- 8:35Speaker 1: inside of your echo chamber is misguided. And that was
- 8:41Speaker 1: one thing that the Epstein case did for me when
- 8:43Speaker 1: it came to human trafficking. It really opened up my
- 8:46Speaker 1: eyes and forced me to take note of the issue.
- 8:52Speaker 1: And once you take note of it and once you
- 8:54Speaker 1: start understanding what's going on, if it doesn't disgust you
- 8:59Speaker 1: and it doesn't make you want to take action in
- 9:01Speaker 1: one way or the other, be it sharing posts or
- 9:05Speaker 1: talking to your friends about it or writing your lawmakers
- 9:08Speaker 1: or making sure, more importantly– you're voting in quality people
- 9:12Speaker 1: on a local level, then I don't know what will, folks.
- 9:19Speaker 1: Child sex trafficking is a critical issue affecting more than
- 9:22Speaker 1: 1 million children worldwide, many of whom are left to
- 9:27Speaker 1: suffer in silence. And for those clowns running around talking about, oh, well,
- 9:33Speaker 1: these people talking about Save Our Children, this is a
- 9:35Speaker 1: right-wing conspiracy.
- 9:38Speaker 2: Those people.
- 9:40Speaker 1: should probably shut their yaps because they have no idea
- 9:42Speaker 1: what they're talking about. This is a worldwide problem. More
- 9:49Speaker 1: than 1 million children suffering, left alone with nobody to
- 9:54Speaker 1: speak out on their behalf. And you mean to tell
- 9:57Speaker 1: me you think this is a topic that should be
- 10:00Speaker 1: politicized probably should chiggity check yourself if that is what
- 10:06Speaker 1: you think about when you see that hashtag some consider
- 10:11Speaker 1: human trafficking as the world's fastest growing crime worldwide about
- 10:15Speaker 1: 20% of trafficking victims are children and With up to
- 10:20Speaker 1: 100% in some regions. So that's 20%. So 2 out
- 10:23Speaker 1: of every 10 trafficking victims is a child. And the
- 10:29Speaker 1: other 8 are someone's daughter.
- 10:32Speaker 2: Someone's mother.
- 10:33Speaker 1: Someone's sister. Someone's loved one. They most certainly don't deserve
- 10:39Speaker 1: to be caught up in some effing human trafficking ring.
- 10:42Speaker 1: Where they're treated as a commodity or as a piece
- 10:45Speaker 1: of cattle. Sex trafficking is the most common form of
- 10:52Speaker 1: human trafficking. Globally, an estimated 4.8 million people are forced
- 10:56Speaker 1: into sexual exploitation.
- 10:58Speaker 2: Think about that.
- 10:59Speaker 1: 4.8 million people right now as we speak, as we're
- 11:03Speaker 1: sipping on our Starbucks, as we're eating our dinners and
- 11:06Speaker 1: watching the baseball game and preparing for the two knuckleheads
- 11:09Speaker 1: to get up there and WWE wrestle debate for us. 4.8
- 11:14Speaker 1: million people are forced to into sexual exploitation. So imagine
- 11:19Speaker 1: what's going on in their lives right now. Pretty pathetic
- 11:23Speaker 1: and sick to think about it, huh? Especially when we're
- 11:25Speaker 1: the most powerful nation in the world, supposedly, and we
- 11:29Speaker 1: let this occur right here in our own country. And
- 11:33Speaker 1: this industry produces $ 99 billion in.
- 11:38Speaker 2: Profits a year for traffickers.
- 11:40Speaker 1: How is that even possible? Well, it's not possible if
- 11:44Speaker 1: people don't participate. And how many people do you see,
- 11:49Speaker 1: these sick sons of bitches from America or England or Australia,
- 11:53Speaker 1: going to these third world countries to try and meet
- 11:55Speaker 1: up with little kids? I can't tell you how many
- 11:58Speaker 1: documentaries I've watched about it, how many sick bastards are
- 12:02Speaker 1: showing up in these countries. Like these children don't matter
- 12:06Speaker 1: because what, they're from a different country? Because they look
- 12:09Speaker 1: different than you? And then these same sons of bitches
- 12:12Speaker 1: will put their wedding ring back on and go up
- 12:14Speaker 1: to their hotel room and FaceTime their wife and their kids.
- 12:18Speaker 1: I don't have the answers, folks. I honestly, I don't
- 12:20Speaker 1: know what to tell you. I don't know how to
- 12:23Speaker 1: stop it or what we can do besides keep raising
- 12:28Speaker 1: your voice about it. Keep talking about it. Make sure
- 12:30Speaker 1: that this is an issue that our politicians understand we
- 12:34Speaker 1: will not accept anymore. This isn't your basic theft. This
- 12:40Speaker 1: isn't your basic greed or steering a contract in the
- 12:43Speaker 1: direction of their brother-in-law. Our politicians are literally Literally standing
- 12:50Speaker 1: by while people are put into modern day slavery. Who
- 12:57Speaker 1: is targeted? Most child trafficking victims are girls and often
- 13:01Speaker 1: between the ages of 12 to 16. Although, when children
- 13:05Speaker 1: under 12 are the victims, boys have been found to
- 13:08Speaker 1: outnumber girls in some samples. You know, it's just so heavy, right?
- 13:12Speaker 1: This kind of shit is so heavy and so gross
- 13:14Speaker 1: to think about. I don't even have children, but I
- 13:17Speaker 1: have little cousins. I have friends who have kids. And
- 13:21Speaker 1: let me tell you what. Something ever happen to one
- 13:24Speaker 1: of those kids? Someone ever kidnap them? I would make
- 13:29Speaker 1: Liam Neeson look like a nice guy.
- 13:33Speaker 2: Okay?
- 13:36Speaker 1: I don't have very much money. But what I do
- 13:38Speaker 1: have are a certain set of skills. And I am
- 13:42Speaker 1: not kidding. I would not rest. Until I found my
- 13:47Speaker 1: loved one. Or found the person who kidnapped them. And
- 13:50Speaker 1: I am not kidding you when I say that. It
- 13:53Speaker 1: is so abhorrent to think about. I wouldn't be able
- 13:56Speaker 1: to sleep at night if it was my child. How
- 13:58Speaker 1: could you possibly go to sleep every night. Knowing your
- 14:01Speaker 1: child has been kidnapped. And more than likely. If they
- 14:05Speaker 1: aren't killed already. Are forced into this kind of life.
- 14:11Speaker 1: And yet we have our petty squabbles on a daily basis.
- 14:15Speaker 1: I don't know, folks. I think we're missing the big
- 14:17Speaker 1: picture here. I really think we're missing the big picture here.
- 14:20Speaker 1: And we're letting these devious sons of bitches that write
- 14:24Speaker 1: the laws that let this occur divide us way too much.
- 14:30Speaker 1: While trafficking often implies transporting across borders, trafficking can very
- 14:35Speaker 1: often be a domestic matter with little to no transportation.
- 14:39Speaker 2: For example.
- 14:41Speaker 1: One study found more than 80% of sex trafficking incidents
- 14:44Speaker 1: in the United States involved U.S.
- 14:46Speaker 2: Citizens. Imagine that, huh?
- 14:50Speaker 1: You think our overlords care about the poorest amongst us?
- 14:53Speaker 1: They've proven that time and time again that they don't, huh?
- 14:56Speaker 1: So why would you think that it would be people
- 14:59Speaker 1: from outside of the United States? We don't mean anything
- 15:02Speaker 1: to them. The only time you matter to them is
- 15:05Speaker 1: once every four years or once every two years when
- 15:08Speaker 1: they want your vote. Then it's all party over. Let's
- 15:11Speaker 1: go back and make sure that the people that really
- 15:13Speaker 1: funded us to get here, let's make sure that they
- 15:15Speaker 1: are happy. And we'll just shit on our constituents. And
- 15:19Speaker 1: the cycle repeats over and over and over again because
- 15:23Speaker 1: we allow it to.
- 15:26Speaker 2: A child can.
- 15:27Speaker 1: Become a victim of commercial sexual exploitation when they're vulnerable.
- 15:31Speaker 1: And some of the risk factors include substance abuse. Sound familiar? Poverty.
- 15:38Speaker 1: Sound familiar? Exposure to family violence or criminality. Check.
- 15:43Speaker 2: Running away or told to leave home.
- 15:45Speaker 1: Abuse and neglect. Including sexual victimization. Involvement in delinquency. Poor
- 15:50Speaker 1: mental health. And involvement in child protective services. Pretty much...
- 15:56Speaker 1: Every single one of the girls... That has come forward
- 15:59Speaker 1: in the Epstein case... Fits that criteria. And the fact
- 16:04Speaker 1: that kids in child protective services... are so at risk
- 16:08Speaker 1: of getting caught up in shit like this, really should
- 16:11Speaker 1: make you start asking some questions. Is there no accountability?
- 16:16Speaker 1: Is that where we're at now? Where there's no accountability
- 16:18Speaker 1: for anything? Jeffrey Epstein dies? Bah! The two lowly guards,
- 16:23Speaker 1: they're at fault. Same shit goes on here. Child Protective Services,
- 16:27Speaker 1: these kids go missing. Do these caseworkers, do they get sanctioned?
- 16:30Speaker 1: Do they lose their jobs? Do they face criminal penalties?
- 16:33Speaker 1: Maybe they should. While there are some common risk factors,
- 16:38Speaker 1: it's important to note that there is no definitive set
- 16:41Speaker 1: of risk factors or single risk factor that can determine
- 16:45Speaker 1: whether a child will become a victim.
- 16:47Speaker 2: That is for sure.
- 16:48Speaker 1: All right. One of these sick, disgusting bastards is out
- 16:52Speaker 1: and they have an opportunity to snatch a kid. You
- 16:55Speaker 1: better believe they're going to do that. And this isn't
- 17:00Speaker 1: something that just happens every once in a while. This
- 17:02Speaker 1: is a prevalent situation, folks. There are very, very, very scary,
- 17:07Speaker 1: sick people living amongst us. How are victims recruited? Traffickers
- 17:14Speaker 1: may recruit victims through guerrilla pimping. This involves aggression, threats,
- 17:19Speaker 1: and violence to engage and enslave the victim. I bet you,
- 17:23Speaker 1: you see more of this in like a gang setting, right?
- 17:27Speaker 1: You have a gang of criminals and they use coercion
- 17:32Speaker 1: and threats and violence to to force a woman into
- 17:36Speaker 1: sexual servitude. Whereas Jeffrey Epstein and his friends, they had money.
- 17:41Speaker 1: They could do it with promises and gifts. When you
- 17:46Speaker 1: see it on the street level here, you see, I
- 17:49Speaker 1: guess they call it guerrilla pimping. That's a new term
- 17:51Speaker 1: to me, but it definitely makes sense. In other instances,
- 17:55Speaker 1: recruitment through what appears to be kindness and compassion is
- 17:58Speaker 1: shrouded in manipulation from food, money, shelter, or drugs. That
- 18:02Speaker 1: is where our case falls into, right? The category that
- 18:06Speaker 1: our case falls into. This is referred to as finesse pimping,
- 18:11Speaker 1: and that makes sense as well. That's really what it is.
- 18:13Speaker 1: They're finessing them, right? And it's funny that they use
- 18:16Speaker 1: that word because that's the word I like to use
- 18:18Speaker 1: all the time about Jeffrey Epstein in New Mexico, how
- 18:21Speaker 1: he was finessing the politicians and the lawmakers. So finesse pimping,
- 18:27Speaker 1: according to this article, is the mode that Jeffrey Epstein
- 18:32Speaker 1: and Ghislaine Maxwell used. These exploited children, often victim to
- 18:37Speaker 1: abuse and neglect in childhood, are promised shelter, love, and protection.
- 18:42Speaker 1: And some children might fall victim to survival sex, with
- 18:46Speaker 1: no other option to attain food, money, shelter, or drugs.
- 18:50Speaker 1: And you see this shit a lot, right? I can't
- 18:52Speaker 1: even imagine how these kids on the streets, especially now
- 18:56Speaker 1: with the homeless people all over the place, are being
- 19:00Speaker 1: able to live and how they're handling themselves. There has
- 19:04Speaker 1: to be a huge, huge rate of child abuse and
- 19:12Speaker 1: sexual abuse for homeless teens. It's something that is probably
- 19:18Speaker 1: an avenue to traverse down at some point, right? Because
- 19:25Speaker 1: I can only imagine what it's like. It doesn't matter
- 19:28Speaker 1: where you drive in Las Vegas. The richest parts of
- 19:32Speaker 1: town to the poorest. There are homeless people all over
- 19:35Speaker 1: the place. A lot of them are women. And I've
- 19:38Speaker 1: seen a lot of kids too, or what appear to
- 19:40Speaker 1: be young kids, teens. So I can only imagine what
- 19:45Speaker 1: the hell is going on out there. Traffickers. quite frequently
- 19:51Speaker 1: use recruiters to identify vulnerable youth while these recruiters might
- 19:55Speaker 1: be other adults victims themselves can eventually become involved in
- 19:59Speaker 1: the recruitment friends may recruit peers into the commercial sex
- 20:03Speaker 1: trafficking population through their social networks and we saw a
- 20:08Speaker 1: lot of that right We saw it with Haley Robson.
- 20:10Speaker 1: We saw it with some of the other girls. It
- 20:12Speaker 1: was normalized to them. They were brought in as kids, 15, 16.
- 20:17Speaker 1: And then they were set free to go bring in
- 20:20Speaker 1: other friends. In fact, some research has found almost half
- 20:24Speaker 1: were recruited by friends into the commercial exploitation industry as
- 20:29Speaker 1: opposed to adults preying on susceptible youth. Recruitment to the
- 20:34Speaker 1: industry by friends is particularly dangerous as youth are less
- 20:39Speaker 1: suspecting of their peers compared with adults. And that's why
- 20:42Speaker 1: it was so devious the way Epstein and Maxwell had
- 20:45Speaker 1: their shit set up, right? Other kids recruiting kids. And
- 20:49Speaker 1: it gave them a bit of a buffer. They had
- 20:53Speaker 1: a bit of a buffer and they had some distance
- 20:56Speaker 1: between themselves and the actual crimes. And they thought it
- 21:00Speaker 1: was just going to work like that forever.
- 21:02Speaker 2: Well, They thought wrong.
- 21:07Speaker 1: In some instances, youth involved in sex trafficking will even
- 21:11Speaker 1: be given financial incentives to introduce their friends to the
- 21:15Speaker 1: exploitation population. Epstein allegedly used this tactic, paying his victims
- 21:21Speaker 1: to recruit other girls, 100%. As a consequence, victims can
- 21:26Speaker 1: suffer a long-term physical, psychological, and even neurological trauma which
- 21:32Speaker 1: can continue for their whole lives. I really hope that
- 21:35Speaker 1: the people dispersing the compensation fund have read this article.
- 21:39Speaker 1: I hope they understand that this isn't something you just
- 21:42Speaker 1: get over like some people think it is. These girls
- 21:45Speaker 1: are suffering lifelong trauma because of this. I can't even imagine...
- 21:52Speaker 1: What sort of moron would sit around and act like, oh, well.
- 21:55Speaker 2: They wanted it. They don't deserve anybody. What sort of.
- 21:59Speaker 1: Inept, barbaric ogre has that sort of thought process? I mean,
- 22:06Speaker 1: I'm pretty alpha when it comes to males, right? I'm
- 22:10Speaker 1: certainly not, you know, sitting around sipping lattes with my
- 22:15Speaker 1: goofy hat on or anything like that. But I mean,
- 22:17Speaker 1: come on already. There's a point where you become a barbarian.
- 22:21Speaker 1: And barbaric behavior is just unacceptable. And the impacts of
- 22:28Speaker 1: the trauma can also affect others, including families and wider society.
- 22:33Speaker 1: Why can't victims just leave? And I've heard this one too.
- 22:36Speaker 2: Why didn't you just leave? Just get up and leave
- 22:38Speaker 2: like it's that easy. Once recruited, it's difficult to leave.
- 22:44Speaker 1: Experts have drawn parallels between the theoretic constructs of human
- 22:47Speaker 1: trafficking to that of intimate partner violence in terms of
- 22:52Speaker 1: power and control. Same thing.
- 22:55Speaker 2: That's exactly what it's like, right?
- 22:57Speaker 1: Even though you know shit's effed up, even though you
- 23:00Speaker 1: know things are not good, a lot of these girls
- 23:03Speaker 1: have nowhere else to go. So what are they supposed
- 23:06Speaker 1: to do? In particular, the victim may be isolated as
- 23:11Speaker 1: well as controlled emotionally and physically. the victim can easily
- 23:15Speaker 1: become entangled through such controlling techniques or even through traumatic bonding.
- 23:20Speaker 1: This is where the victim has appreciation towards the trafficker
- 23:24Speaker 1: for being able to live coupled with entrenched fear. And
- 23:27Speaker 1: that's what happened to all these girls, right? All of
- 23:29Speaker 1: these girls had traumatic bonding with Jeffrey Epstein. He abused them,
- 23:33Speaker 1: but he made it like it was normal. And he
- 23:36Speaker 1: gave them money. And, oh, look, I really care about you. Meanwhile,
- 23:39Speaker 1: he's abusing these young little girls, and none of it's okay.
- 23:47Speaker 1: In some instances, a victim recruited through finesse pimping might
- 23:51Speaker 1: feel indebted and obliged to stay with the trafficker. And yeah,
- 23:56Speaker 1: that's exactly the story we have seen play out in
- 23:58Speaker 1: this Jeffrey Epstein case. Other tactics to maintain control can
- 24:04Speaker 1: include food deprivation or forced drugs. And older victims have
- 24:08Speaker 1: reportedly been threatened that if they don't cooperate or if
- 24:11Speaker 1: they don't earn a certain sum of money that day,
- 24:13Speaker 1: the victim's child will be sold. These are the sort
- 24:16Speaker 1: of scumbag morons that we're dealing with, folks. These people
- 24:21Speaker 1: need to be purged off of the face of earth.
- 24:25Speaker 1: Quick trials, harsh penalties. The ability to maintain total control
- 24:31Speaker 1: over the victim may also be compounded by their vulnerability
- 24:35Speaker 1: to manipulation, for example, by virtue of age, and potentially
- 24:39Speaker 1: complicated by substance use problems, learning disabilities, and poor mental health.
- 24:45Speaker 1: And again, that's what they look for, right? The most
- 24:48Speaker 1: vulnerable amongst us.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Are the targets.
- 24:53Speaker 1: And I don't know about you folks out there, but me,
- 24:56Speaker 1: I hate bullies.
- 24:57Speaker 2: I despise bullies.
- 25:00Speaker 1: And in fact, I have a penchant for giving bullies
- 25:04Speaker 1: that three-piece. And that's what these people are at their core.
- 25:10Speaker 2: They are bullies.
- 25:11Speaker 1: They look for people weaker than them, And then they
- 25:15Speaker 1: take advantage of those people using their power and their
- 25:20Speaker 1: prestige and their so-called connections to polite society as a
- 25:26Speaker 1: shield for their disgusting behavior. With sex traffickers being strategic
- 25:31Speaker 1: in even their recruitment and ability to entangle the victim
- 25:36Speaker 1: physically and psychologically, it's not difficult to see how victims
- 25:41Speaker 1: become entrapped. It's not, right? And, you know, again, I
- 25:47Speaker 1: had no idea how deep these problems were.
- 25:50Speaker 2: I had no idea.
- 25:51Speaker 1: A million or more children and 4.8 million people and
- 25:56Speaker 1: all of these crazy big-ass numbers that are just mind-blowing.
- 26:03Speaker 1: And how we as a society have let it get
- 26:06Speaker 1: to this point, I will never understand it. But what
- 26:11Speaker 1: I can say is moving forward, I know me personally,
- 26:16Speaker 1: I plan on holding my local politicians responsible for all
- 26:21Speaker 1: of this. If I send you to Washington, D.C., I
- 26:24Speaker 1: expect you to look out for the most vulnerable amongst
- 26:28Speaker 1: us in my state and in the country as a whole.
- 26:33Speaker 1: And to tell you the truth, the world as a whole.
- 26:38Speaker 1: And I think that if we all do that, if
- 26:39Speaker 1: we all hold our congressmen and women and our senators
- 26:42Speaker 1: accountable at a state level, then there won't be any
- 26:47Speaker 1: more of this loophole writing and garbage nonsense. Because I
- 26:53Speaker 1: don't have any other answers, folks, right? That's the only
- 26:56Speaker 1: thing I can think of. And I plan on doing
- 26:59Speaker 1: that here in Las Vegas. I plan on voting for
- 27:01Speaker 1: people who actually get it. I plan on voting for
- 27:04Speaker 1: people who are not scared of to dip their toes
- 27:07Speaker 1: into controversial topics. But really what I'm looking for are
- 27:12Speaker 1: people who are willing to put words away and instead
- 27:19Speaker 1: kick shit into action. If you'd like to contact me,
- 27:23Speaker 1: you can do that at bobbycappucci at protonmail.com. That's B-O-B-B-Y-C-A-P-U-C-C-I
- 27:30Speaker 1: at protonmail.com. You can also find me on Twitter at
- 27:35Speaker 1: B-O-B-B-Y underscore C-A-P-U-C-C-I. All of the links that go with
- 27:41Speaker 1: this episode can be found in the description box. Years,
- 27:45Speaker 1: I have been saying that calling Ghislaine Maxwell a socialite
- 27:49Speaker 1: in the legacy media is ridiculous. Especially when you don't
- 27:54Speaker 1: go into context about what she is being accused of.
- 27:59Speaker 1: And the legacy media just continued and continued to call
- 28:03Speaker 1: her a socialite. Never brought up the fact that she
- 28:06Speaker 1: was also accused of being involved in the actual abuse, right? Instead,
- 28:12Speaker 1: we always got Jeffrey Epstein's madam.
- 28:15Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein's pimp.
- 28:17Speaker 1: Socialite. With that connotation, you are basically saying that these
- 28:22Speaker 1: survivors were prostitutes. And I've been bringing it up for
- 28:27Speaker 1: quite some time because isn't it the media that tells
- 28:30Speaker 1: us words matter? And then they have the audacity to
- 28:35Speaker 1: hop onto their computers or whatever it is they're pumping
- 28:39Speaker 1: their content out from and start yapping away about how
- 28:44Speaker 1: Ghislaine Maxwell is a socialite. No, she's not a socialite.
- 28:48Speaker 1: She's a child abuser, a sex trafficker, a general all-around scuzzbag. and,
- 28:55Speaker 1: quite possibly, a bipedal serpent. So, now that she has
- 29:00Speaker 1: been convicted, one of the first things I tweeted out
- 29:05Speaker 1: was that it's time for the legacy media to start
- 29:08Speaker 1: calling her what she is, and that is not a socialite. Well,
- 29:13Speaker 1: there's an article out today from The Guardian, and the
- 29:17Speaker 1: author of that article, Joan Smith, is picking up the
- 29:20Speaker 1: rallying cry, and she's saying the same exact thing. Let's
- 29:24Speaker 1: call Maxwell what she is, a sex trafficker. And I'm
- 29:29Speaker 1: very thankful that somebody like Joan Smith is, you know,
- 29:33Speaker 1: smelling the coffee, if you will. It's a long time
- 29:37Speaker 1: coming for the legacy media to call these people what
- 29:40Speaker 1: they are. And when you talk about Les Wexner, he
- 29:44Speaker 1: should also be talked about in the same kind of light.
- 29:48Speaker 1: Les Wexner, Victoria's Secret founder. No, Les Wexner, accused friend
- 29:53Speaker 1: of Jeffrey Epstein, enabler of Jeffrey Epstein, and accused of
- 29:56Speaker 1: taking part in his sex trafficking ring. How hard is
- 30:00Speaker 1: that to put that down in the newspaper? What, are
- 30:02Speaker 1: you all scared? I mean, it's illogical, almost, that the
- 30:08Speaker 1: legacy media was so gung-ho on calling this lady a
- 30:13Speaker 1: socialite for so long, even though there were mountains of evidence.
- 30:17Speaker 2: Now, don't get me wrong.
- 30:19Speaker 1: There were some people in the print media who... called
- 30:23Speaker 1: out Ghislaine's nonsense for the whole entire run there were
- 30:26Speaker 1: some people in the print media who weren't buying any
- 30:29Speaker 1: of her bullshit and one of those outlets that has
- 30:35Speaker 1: done a very good job throughout this whole entire thing
- 30:38Speaker 1: even though I might not agree with a lot of
- 30:40Speaker 1: their positions on other topics is the Daily Beast they
- 30:44Speaker 1: did a fantastic job covering this as far as the
- 30:49Speaker 1: print media goes And they have done a phenomenal job
- 30:54Speaker 1: of framing Ghislaine Maxwell as what she is. Now, there
- 31:00Speaker 1: have been plenty of other outlets that have refused to
- 31:03Speaker 1: do it. Moving forward, I'm very interested to see which
- 31:08Speaker 1: ones of these outlets actually fall in line here and
- 31:13Speaker 1: call her what she is and not a socialite. Because, again,
- 31:17Speaker 1: it matters, right? When you're talking about Ghislaine Maxwell, the
- 31:21Speaker 1: way the legacy media has leading up to all of this,
- 31:25Speaker 1: they would frame it like she was just some socialite
- 31:27Speaker 1: or that this was some kind of madam situation where
- 31:30Speaker 1: she was just providing prostitutes for Jeffrey Epstein. That's the
- 31:34Speaker 1: way the legacy media framed it for a very long time.
- 31:37Speaker 1: And then you wonder why people had no idea the
- 31:40Speaker 1: true scope of what was going on here. You wonder
- 31:42Speaker 1: why I'm getting emails every single day from people who
- 31:46Speaker 1: had no clue.
- 31:48Speaker 2: The true scope.
- 31:51Speaker 1: And it all goes back to the legacy media not
- 31:54Speaker 1: doing their job. And I know I rant about that
- 31:59Speaker 1: here on the podcast, but it's very important that you
- 32:02Speaker 1: all understand that the legacy media, this version of it anyway,
- 32:06Speaker 1: is not there as an ally for us.
- 32:09Speaker 2: The people, right?
- 32:10Speaker 1: The fourth estate is always supposed to be a bulwark
- 32:12Speaker 1: between us and the most powerful. They're the ones that
- 32:16Speaker 1: are supposed to be holding these people responsible. not independent
- 32:19Speaker 1: content creators who are doing it out of their own pocket. Instead,
- 32:25Speaker 1: the legacy media would much rather yap about how your
- 32:29Speaker 1: cousin Tom hates you because he voted for Joe Biden,
- 32:33Speaker 1: or your mom is some crazy racist because she voted
- 32:36Speaker 1: for insert politician here. That's crazy stuff to me, okay?
- 32:42Speaker 1: The legacy media gaslighting everybody, getting everybody wound up with
- 32:46Speaker 1: their rage porn about how everybody should hate each other. Meanwhile,
- 32:50Speaker 1: they're not breaking it down. They're not giving you the details.
- 32:54Speaker 1: And they're not informing you of.
- 32:56Speaker 2: The real issues at hand.
- 32:58Speaker 1: Such as Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and the true scope
- 33:02Speaker 1: of what they were up to. The good news is,
- 33:06Speaker 1: people are starting to wake up. And just take a
- 33:08Speaker 1: look at how... popular a lot of independent content creators
- 33:13Speaker 1: and investigative journalists have become as opposed to the legacy
- 33:18Speaker 1: media i mean they have no one to blame but
- 33:22Speaker 1: themselves either by the way all of these pearl clutching
- 33:25Speaker 1: blue check marks on twitter and elsewhere who get up
- 33:29Speaker 1: there and preach down to everybody else while at the
- 33:33Speaker 1: same time providing cover for people like epstein and maxwell
- 33:41Speaker 1: So it's about time that we stop calling Ghislaine Maxwell
- 33:44Speaker 1: a socialite. And it's time that we start calling her
- 33:47Speaker 1: what she is. A sex trafficker and a child abuser.
- 33:52Speaker 1: And the author of this article from The Guardian is
- 33:54Speaker 1: doing exactly that. This article is from The Guardian and
- 34:00Speaker 1: the author is Joan Smith. For years she was described
- 34:06Speaker 1: as a socialite. A word that conceals more than it explains.
- 34:10Speaker 1: Socialites are almost always women from a wealthy, if not
- 34:14Speaker 1: an aristocratic background, and their defining characteristic is being photographed
- 34:20Speaker 1: with famous people. Imagine these socialites, and I'm using air quotes,
- 34:26Speaker 1: come from some of the most powerful families in the world,
- 34:29Speaker 1: scions in the world of business and politics and you
- 34:32Speaker 1: name it. And what are they known for? What do
- 34:35Speaker 1: they use their great power, their great influence, their great
- 34:38Speaker 1: wealth for? to become more famous, to get in more pictures,
- 34:42Speaker 1: to extend their social worth. Meanwhile, have any of you
- 34:48Speaker 1: taken a ride down a major thoroughfare in any major
- 34:53Speaker 1: city around the country and seen the absolute abject poverty
- 34:57Speaker 1: that these people are living in? Meanwhile, we have a
- 35:00Speaker 1: socialite class in this country who are basically getting paid
- 35:04Speaker 1: millions and millions of dollars to take pictures places with people.
- 35:11Speaker 1: And these are the people that others are looking up to? Sorry,
- 35:14Speaker 1: not me.
- 35:16Speaker 2: I think all of these people are weird.
- 35:18Speaker 1: I think the whole entire so-called polite society is corrupt
- 35:24Speaker 1: and polluted. And anyone who's aspiring to be a quote-unquote
- 35:29Speaker 1: socialite should probably have their brains checked. Glenn Maxwell fitted
- 35:35Speaker 1: the bill, appearing in photos with everyone from Donald Trump
- 35:39Speaker 1: to Elon Musk to Prince Andrew. But being a socialite
- 35:43Speaker 1: is not a job. And it was unclear how she
- 35:45Speaker 1: financed her opulent lifestyle. Especially after the death of her father, Robert. Eh,
- 35:52Speaker 1: it's no shock to me. We all know the deal.
- 35:54Speaker 1: She was set up with Jeffrey Epstein for this express purpose.
- 35:59Speaker 1: For them to work hand in hand to provide compromise. Again,
- 36:03Speaker 1: the legacy media refuses to touch that, right? They refuse
- 36:06Speaker 1: to really go down the real rabbit holes that matter.
- 36:11Speaker 1: And for me, I'll just let my work speak for itself.
- 36:15Speaker 1: We're going on three years here now with over 1,500
- 36:18Speaker 1: episodes in the catalog, and the proof is in the pudding.
- 36:23Speaker 1: The question is, when's the legacy media going to catch
- 36:27Speaker 1: up to us about this? It took them forever to
- 36:29Speaker 1: catch up about a bunch of other things, so I'm
- 36:32Speaker 1: guessing it's going to take forever for them to catch
- 36:35Speaker 1: up here as well. because they've been lapped, right? The
- 36:38Speaker 1: stuff the legacy media is all shocked about, things people were, oh, wow,
- 36:42Speaker 1: I had no idea about, stuff we've been talking about
- 36:45Speaker 1: for three years. And I don't just mean me. I'm
- 36:47Speaker 1: talking about people who have been following this case closely.
- 36:52Speaker 1: And when it comes to Ghislaine Maxwell's lifestyle and the
- 36:55Speaker 1: way she got her money, it's very obvious how she
- 36:58Speaker 1: got her money. She was working hand in hand with
- 37:00Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein. He was engaging in all kinds of financial
- 37:04Speaker 1: malfeasance all over the globe And at the same time,
- 37:08Speaker 1: Maxwell's role within the enterprise was bringing her in a
- 37:13Speaker 1: bunch of bucks as well. So she wasn't a socialite
- 37:17Speaker 1: as far as, say, like a Paris Hilton, right? Somebody
- 37:20Speaker 1: who's just going around taking pictures, getting drunk and acting
- 37:23Speaker 1: the fool. That wasn't what Maxwell was doing. She was
- 37:26Speaker 1: opening doors for Jeffrey Epstein that would have never been
- 37:30Speaker 1: open for him. And that all goes back to her upbringing,
- 37:33Speaker 1: generational wealth. The Old Boys Club of England, if you will.
- 37:41Speaker 1: Over recent weeks, during her trial on sex trafficking charges
- 37:44Speaker 1: in a New York courtroom, the answer became clear. Maxwell's
- 37:48Speaker 1: wealth came from her erstwhile boyfriend, see they still don't
- 37:51Speaker 1: get it right, from her business partner and partner in crime,
- 37:55Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, who gave her at least $ 30. 7 million worth
- 37:59Speaker 1: Over a period of eight years. Way more than that, folks. Now,
- 38:03Speaker 1: can I prove that to you with receipts? I can't.
- 38:05Speaker 2: Okay?
- 38:06Speaker 1: But when you look at the hustle Epstein was up
- 38:09Speaker 1: to in the Virgin Islands and elsewhere, the Gratz hustle,
- 38:16Speaker 1: every other kind of IPO hustle you can imagine, every
- 38:19Speaker 1: kind of money stash you can imagine, it was all
- 38:23Speaker 1: occurring offshore. And I have a hard time believing that.
- 38:27Speaker 1: that the only money Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell had
- 38:30Speaker 1: is what they told the federal government that they were holding.
- 38:34Speaker 1: You mean to tell me they didn't have a bag
- 38:36Speaker 1: in reserve?
- 38:37Speaker 2: Stop it.
- 38:38Speaker 1: These people always have a bag in reserve. By all accounts,
- 38:44Speaker 1: Maxwell went from being in love with him to discovering
- 38:47Speaker 1: that her usefulness lay elsewhere and providing a steady stream
- 38:51Speaker 1: of young girls to satisfy his depraved sexual appetite. And
- 38:56Speaker 1: this again is where they missed the point. They get
- 38:58Speaker 1: a little bit of it, right? But it wasn't just
- 39:00Speaker 1: his sexual appetite that was being addressed here. His proclivities
- 39:07Speaker 1: were perfect for the intelligence services. This is exactly what
- 39:12Speaker 1: the intelligence services love. A guy like Epstein in the
- 39:16Speaker 1: financial sector who has proclivities.
- 39:18Speaker 2: Such as his.
- 39:20Speaker 1: Get that guy involved in your schemes and your plots
- 39:23Speaker 1: and your honeypot operation and forget it. The sky is
- 39:26Speaker 1: the limit as we have seen here. And for those
- 39:29Speaker 1: of you who think, oh, come on, the government would
- 39:31Speaker 1: never be in bed with a guy like Jeffrey Epstein.
- 39:34Speaker 1: I mean, just off the top of my head, a
- 39:36Speaker 1: couple of people here that the government's been in bed
- 39:38Speaker 1: with in the past.
- 39:39Speaker 2: Whitey Bulger.
- 39:41Speaker 1: Sammy the Bull Gravano, both men, serial killers, both men,
- 39:46Speaker 1: absolute murderers and scumbags, and the government had no problem
- 39:49Speaker 1: getting in bed with them because the means justified the end.
- 39:54Speaker 1: And if you think the same didn't happen with Jeffrey Epstein,
- 39:57Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell you at this point.
- 40:00Speaker 1: I know we have certain people out there, oh, there's
- 40:03Speaker 1: no intelligence ties with Jeffrey Epstein, that's absurd. Those are
- 40:06Speaker 1: the very same people, folks, remember? that were probably pitching
- 40:10Speaker 1: you that the weapons of mass destruction lie in Iraq
- 40:13Speaker 1: was right, and that the whole entire Russia fiasco was legit.
- 40:18Speaker 1: It's all BS and political theater with these people. The
- 40:25Speaker 1: girls trusted her, thinking of her as an older sister,
- 40:28Speaker 1: and only realized later that they had been betrayed. The socialite, co-conspirator,
- 40:34Speaker 1: general all around scuzzbag, convicted sex trafficker, child abuser, was
- 40:38Speaker 1: actually a procure. A word with deservedly unpleasant connotations. You see,
- 40:43Speaker 1: she was more than that. As much as I appreciate
- 40:48Speaker 1: the author here, Joan Smith, taking up the mantle and
- 40:50Speaker 1: talking about how she's not a socialite, again, she doesn't
- 40:53Speaker 1: go far enough. Again, she's watching her words. You notice
- 40:59Speaker 1: they never watch their words when they're attacking their political opponents, however, right?
- 41:08Speaker 1: It does not sit easily with Maxwell's glamorous lifestyle, the planes, helicopters,
- 41:14Speaker 1: and visits to Epstein's private islands. Many well-known people will
- 41:18Speaker 1: surely be regretting that they ever moved in the same
- 41:21Speaker 1: circles as Maxwell and Epstein, let alone appear in the
- 41:24Speaker 1: aircraft logs revealed in court.
- 41:27Speaker 2: Indeed.
- 41:28Speaker 1: Maxwell's conviction last week on five charges seems to have
- 41:32Speaker 1: created a kind of cognitive dissonance in some circles, as
- 41:35Speaker 1: though such things simply should not happen to a woman
- 41:38Speaker 1: with a degree from Balliol. I mean, again, this is
- 41:43Speaker 1: the perception people have of the so-called elite, and that's
- 41:47Speaker 1: a perception that they have fostered for years and years
- 41:50Speaker 1: and years. But those of us who know the deal,
- 41:54Speaker 1: we understand that the so-called elite They're more depraved than
- 41:59Speaker 1: just about anybody else. I don't care where you have
- 42:03Speaker 1: your degree from. I don't care what kind of charitable
- 42:06Speaker 1: work you have done. If you're running around with Jeffrey Epstein,
- 42:10Speaker 1: Ghislaine Maxwell, and the rest of them, you, my friend,
- 42:13Speaker 1: are on the list as a piece of shit. See,
- 42:19Speaker 1: I've been talking about this for a while. Anyone who
- 42:22Speaker 1: knows people who have been to prison, anyone who has
- 42:24Speaker 1: loved ones who have been to prison, understand right away
- 42:26Speaker 1: that all of Maxwell's bullshit was exactly that bullshit. She
- 42:29Speaker 1: wasn't treated no different than anybody else. And she does
- 42:49Speaker 1: not want to be on the main line. And then
- 42:52Speaker 1: all of a sudden, all of these so-called elite, all
- 42:56Speaker 1: of these people who are in Maxwell's circle or Epstein's circle,
- 42:59Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it, all of these people
- 43:02Speaker 1: all of a sudden care about how jail reform's going
- 43:06Speaker 1: or what's going on in the prison systems in the
- 43:08Speaker 1: United States. But the thing is, where were they before
- 43:12Speaker 1: Maxwell was arrested?
- 43:14Speaker 2: Where were they?
- 43:15Speaker 1: When people like Kalief Browder were rotting away in prison.
- 43:21Speaker 1: Siblings have rallied round, insisting that they cannot accept the
- 43:24Speaker 1: jury's guilty verdicts. Although, that seems to be more of
- 43:27Speaker 1: an expression of denial than in any real expectation that
- 43:31Speaker 1: she will win an appeal. Well, you can't expect them
- 43:34Speaker 1: to say anything else, right? There's no way that she's
- 43:36Speaker 1: winning any appeal, folks.
- 43:38Speaker 2: I don't buy it. Zero chance.
- 43:40Speaker 1: Just like I didn't think she'd win her trial, I
- 43:43Speaker 1: don't think she'll win any kind of appeal here. She
- 43:47Speaker 1: was not treated any differently. She was not treated wrongly.
- 43:51Speaker 1: And to be honest with you, she got more of
- 43:53Speaker 1: a fair shake than just about anybody else. We know
- 43:58Speaker 1: from rape trials that the public imagination struggles to accommodate
- 44:02Speaker 1: individuals who challenge stereotypes about sex offenders, whether it is
- 44:06Speaker 1: the good looking date who turns out to be a
- 44:08Speaker 1: rapist or the socialite who facilitates a pedophile. It's easier
- 44:14Speaker 1: to believe terrible things about Rosemary West, a dumpy, working-class
- 44:18Speaker 1: woman who helped lure girls into her husband's car and
- 44:22Speaker 1: joined in his abuse of them, than an heiress who
- 44:25Speaker 1: once rested her boot on the thigh of an entranced
- 44:28Speaker 1: Boris Johnson. See, for me, it's not. And I hope
- 44:31Speaker 1: that that's one thing that all of you folks take
- 44:34Speaker 1: from this podcast. If you take nothing else from it,
- 44:36Speaker 1: please take this. Those who would rule over you... despise you.
- 44:44Speaker 1: Those who would rule over you are not these great people.
- 44:50Speaker 1: And when I think about people like this, I don't
- 44:52Speaker 1: think about working class people. I think about people like
- 44:55Speaker 1: Maxwell and Epstein and Jean-Luc Brunel and Darren Hindyke and
- 44:59Speaker 1: the rest of them. Fred and Rose West committed horrific
- 45:04Speaker 1: crimes together, torturing their victims as well as killing them.
- 45:08Speaker 1: But Fred West was already a murderer when he chose
- 45:11Speaker 1: 15-year-old Rosemary Letts, who had a horrendous history of child
- 45:15Speaker 1: sexual abuse, as his accomplice. Yeah, well, that's all fine
- 45:18Speaker 1: and well, but Maxwell doesn't have that to fall back on.
- 45:23Speaker 1: That kind of armor to wrap herself in. She was
- 45:26Speaker 1: from great privilege. She was born into the Maxwell family.
- 45:31Speaker 1: You want to talk about having money? Talk about having
- 45:33Speaker 1: dough and power and reach? It doesn't get much more...
- 45:37Speaker 1: elite than that so any kind of position that's being
- 45:42Speaker 1: taken that Maxwell's any kind of victim or that she
- 45:46Speaker 1: couldn't stop Jeffrey Epstein if she wanted to is bullshit
- 45:49Speaker 1: in my opinion she could have stopped him she could
- 45:53Speaker 1: have ratted on him she could have went to the
- 45:54Speaker 1: authorities instead she continued to do it with him and
- 45:58Speaker 1: continued to benefit from it predators have a sixth sense
- 46:03Speaker 1: when it comes to choosing co-conspirators Maxwell was a grown
- 46:06Speaker 1: woman when she met Epstein and fully responsible for the
- 46:09Speaker 1: choices she would go on to make. But it is
- 46:13Speaker 1: striking that their relationship seems to have begun around the
- 46:16Speaker 1: time of her father's fatal fall from the yacht to
- 46:19Speaker 1: be named after her, the Lady Ghislaine.
- 46:22Speaker 2: That's BS as well.
- 46:23Speaker 1: Again, the legacy media not knowing what they're talking about.
- 46:26Speaker 1: And with all respect to Joan Smith, she could probably
- 46:30Speaker 1: do with listening to the podcast for a little while
- 46:33Speaker 1: before her next article. Because this has nothing to do
- 46:36Speaker 1: with that. Maxwell was never a victim. Maxwell and Epstein
- 46:41Speaker 1: met before. Maxwell's dad died in fact. And the whole
- 46:45Speaker 1: entire thing. Was a plot set up. For them to
- 46:49Speaker 1: work in conjunction.
- 46:50Speaker 2: With each other.
- 46:54Speaker 1: It's no excuse to say. That the discovery that her
- 46:56Speaker 1: father was a fraudster. So soon after his death. Would
- 46:59Speaker 1: have shaken Maxwell to her foundations.
- 47:02Speaker 2: But.
- 47:03Speaker 1: It may be that Epstein recognized her weaknesses, seized his chance,
- 47:07Speaker 1: and got access to an address book that included the
- 47:09Speaker 1: Queen's favorite son, the Duke of York. Again, sorry, Joan Smith.
- 47:15Speaker 1: That's not going to work. Your underhanded protection of Maxwell
- 47:18Speaker 1: here is not going to go over so well. She's
- 47:21Speaker 1: a scumbag. She was not manipulated. She was very educated.
- 47:26Speaker 1: At any time, she could have bounced. At any time,
- 47:29Speaker 1: she could have ratted Jeffrey Epstein out. She chose not to.
- 47:33Speaker 1: She chose not to. And now, it's time to reap
- 47:37Speaker 1: the storm. Maxwell's connections boosted his sense of impunity, which
- 47:45Speaker 1: is perhaps the single most important factor in allowing predators
- 47:49Speaker 1: to get away with their crimes. He would later describe
- 47:51Speaker 1: Maxwell in humiliating terms as an ex-girlfriend who had fallen
- 47:55Speaker 1: on hard times, framing himself as the benefactor who had
- 47:59Speaker 1: allowed her to live the style to which she had
- 48:01Speaker 1: become accustomed. Again, all part of the plan, all part
- 48:05Speaker 1: of the plot. I urge you to watch the show
- 48:08Speaker 1: Americans if you want to see a better explanation of
- 48:12Speaker 1: how these kinds of people who work in the world
- 48:15Speaker 1: of spycraft or who are assets, how they conduct themselves.
- 48:20Speaker 1: They'll set it up as if there's a married couple
- 48:22Speaker 1: with kids, the whole thing. And it's all a plot.
- 48:27Speaker 1: That's how the intelligence services work. I know a lot
- 48:29Speaker 1: of us don't want to think about the intelligence services
- 48:32Speaker 1: too deeply because it's terrifying. But I'm here to tell you,
- 48:36Speaker 1: everything that Edward Snowden was telling you folks, he wasn't lying.
- 48:40Speaker 1: And Julian Assange, he wasn't lying either. There's a reason
- 48:45Speaker 1: that the American government wants him so bad, folks. The
- 48:53Speaker 1: mystery surrounding the source of Epstein's wealth has led to
- 48:56Speaker 1: comparisons with Jay Gatsby, the enigmatic main character in Scott
- 49:00Speaker 1: Fitzgerald's novel. But such mythology lends a suspicious glamour.
- 49:07Speaker 2: To sordid crimes.
- 49:08Speaker 1: No, none of that either, folks. I don't know who's
- 49:10Speaker 1: calling him the Great Gatsby. More like the Great Ratsby.
- 49:13Speaker 1: More like the Great Moron. The dude was getting his
- 49:17Speaker 1: money because he knew the hustle. He knew the Gratz hustle.
- 49:20Speaker 1: He was getting IPOs from Goldman Sachs. And he was
- 49:24Speaker 1: on the team, right? When you're on the team, you
- 49:26Speaker 1: get the hookup, folks. You got the Gratz hustle going
- 49:30Speaker 1: on where you're basically guaranteed a buyback of the stock
- 49:33Speaker 1: purchases you make by the bank. It's all a hustle
- 49:36Speaker 1: for rich people to get richer. and I've been talking
- 49:39Speaker 1: about this for three years now, the financial angle of
- 49:42Speaker 1: this crime is never discussed enough, and nobody really dives
- 49:46Speaker 1: in hard enough. It is a depressing fact that women
- 49:53Speaker 1: who identify with powerful men often share their misogyny and
- 49:57Speaker 1: reflect it back in a desperate quest for approval. Profiles
- 50:01Speaker 1: of Epstein remarked on the disturbing fact that his homes
- 50:03Speaker 1: were full of teenage girls. They're nothing, these girls, Maxwell
- 50:07Speaker 1: once told a confidant. They are trash. And that's how
- 50:10Speaker 1: Maxwell and Epstein thought about all of us, not just
- 50:13Speaker 1: the girls. We're all plebs to them, folks. Our robber
- 50:18Speaker 1: baron class, meaning our political class, and people like Epstein
- 50:22Speaker 1: and Maxwell, if you only understood the low opinion they
- 50:26Speaker 1: had of you, you would never ever again carry water
- 50:29Speaker 1: for these pieces of shit. You would never ever again
- 50:32Speaker 1: get on Twitter. And talk shit about this or that
- 50:35Speaker 1: or the other thing. Because in reality, the real enemy,
- 50:39Speaker 1: the real issue at hand, folks, are these kinds of people. Maxwell, Epstein,
- 50:44Speaker 1: they're friends. It's not your uncle, it's not your aunt,
- 50:47Speaker 1: it's not your friend from high school. It must have
- 50:52Speaker 1: occurred to Maxwell by now that the two men she
- 50:55Speaker 1: put absolute faith in, her father and her ex-lover, both
- 50:59Speaker 1: left her to face the music after their apparent suicides.
- 51:02Speaker 2: And for what?
- 51:04Speaker 1: The columnist Barbara Amiel, who is married to the former
- 51:07Speaker 1: newspaper magnate Conrad Black, recalls a conversation that shows Maxwell
- 51:12Speaker 1: in an unexpected and highly unflattering light. I bet I'm
- 51:16Speaker 1: in charge of more laboratories and bathrooms than you are,
- 51:20Speaker 1: Maxwell suddenly said as the two women were walking along
- 51:23Speaker 1: the beach. While Amiel thought about it, Maxwell reminded her
- 51:26Speaker 1: to include those on planes. 39, said Amiel, and Maxwell's
- 51:31Speaker 1: face lit up. I win, she exclaimed. Uh, what? I
- 51:35Speaker 1: don't even understand that line of thinking. I mean, imagine
- 51:39Speaker 1: being so rich or whatever that you're arguing about who
- 51:42Speaker 1: has more bathrooms under your thumb. Sounds like a great
- 51:46Speaker 1: argument to have. Questions about Maxwell's relationship with Epstein have
- 51:51Speaker 1: now been cleared up. She procured girls for him, and
- 51:56Speaker 1: it speaks volumes about our moral compass, or lack of it.
- 51:59Speaker 1: that she evidently cared more about the number of laboratories
- 52:03Speaker 1: in his mansions than the vulnerable teenagers she exposed to
- 52:06Speaker 1: sexual assault and rape. Well, not only that, not only
- 52:10Speaker 1: that she exposed, that she took part in, Ms. Smith,
- 52:13Speaker 1: that she helped, that she had literally hands-on. So when
- 52:20Speaker 1: we talk about Maxwell, we need to remember that as well.
- 52:23Speaker 1: She's not just some procurer. She's not a madam. She's
- 52:27Speaker 1: not a pimp, okay? She is a child abuser, a
- 52:31Speaker 1: sex trafficker, and a scummy, pitiful excuse for a human being.
- 52:37Speaker 1: All right, folks, that's going to wrap it up for
- 52:41Speaker 1: this morning. Now, I'll be back later on, obviously, with
- 52:44Speaker 1: some more context episodes. And we'll see about later on tonight.
- 52:48Speaker 1: We might do a nighttime episode tonight, nighttime update. I
- 52:52Speaker 1: have a couple of articles I want to get to.
- 52:54Speaker 1: But starting tomorrow, we're going to be hitting the ground running, folks.
- 52:58Speaker 2: We'll be here every day.
- 52:59Speaker 1: We'll be back on Beyond the Horizon every day. And yeah,
- 53:02Speaker 1: we're going to keep the story going because there is
- 53:05Speaker 1: a lot to get to. So I hope all of
- 53:08Speaker 1: you folks enjoy your Sunday. And with that said, you
