Tartaglione attempted to kill him. Epstein said this too. He was hired to do so. Look at the purple hand marks on his neck. Later Epstein was murdered. He knew too much on too many including Trump. There was no way he was going to make it to trial. Brunel later died in a French prison allegedly by suicide. This is a massive cover upDon't think for a second they didn't farm this out to his cellmate with a bribe.Interesting note, Clay Tiffany a journalist looking into police corruption who had been beaten by Tartaglione was found dead in 2015. Nicolas Tartaglione was an interesting character in the mob with fellow ex cop body builders use as enforcers. Joe Biggs (known as big J) and Gerard Benderoth (strongman competitor) as well as his brother Michael Tartaglione all worked with him. When Epstein's roommate Tartaglion committed his quadruple homicide over a 200k drug deal gone wrong, he choked the main culprit to death with a zip tie.The first strangulation of Epstein probably was not attempted murder. It was a warning. They were not going to kill him until after he signed the 1953 Trust which he did a day and a half before he was murdered. The Trust has never been made public. The only beneficiary we know because she was named in a court document was Karyna Shuliak no others are known. Epstein was able to tuck away $145 million just before his death.guys follow my Twitter as while I am away in the USA I am mainly using that to do updates https://x.com/RyLiberty This is a public episode.

Another third are expanding, including Florida and Utah, based on payrolls, employment, and other key economic data. This graphic, via Visual Capitalist’s Dorothy Neufeld, shows recession risk by state in 2025, based on analysis from Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics.

In Maine, for instance, year-over-year GDP growth is just 0.8% as of Q2 2025, compared to the U.S. average of 2.1%. Meanwhile, Washington, D.C.'s unemployment rate was 6.4% in July, significantly higher than the 4.6% U.S. average given sweeping federal cuts. According to Zandi's analysis, New York and California are “Treading Water”, together responsible for driving over 22% of U.S. GDP. In comparison, Texas, which fuels 9.4% of U.S. economic growth is expanding. Unemployment rates of 4.0% in July remain below the U.S. average. Additionally, the Texas economy is growing faster than the nation, while income growth rose 6.3% annually as of Q2 2025, outpacing the national average.

Home builders aren’t going to build more homes if they are losing money. Trump can’t force them to build homes.

With deportations and the decline of the boomer generation from old age, supply will be increasing. Prices will come down. The trick is not to allow them to go into a free fall and keep demand high enough to soak up a great deal of that supply. Trump’s proposed $2,000 tariff rebate checks depend on Congress President Donald Trump needs Congress to take action to make good on a proposal to send some Americans $2,000 tariff rebate checks next year. Director of the National Economic Council Kevin Hassett said the U.S. House and Senate will need to take up the matter. “I would expect that in the new year, the president will bring forth a proposal to Congress to make that happen,” Hassett said on “Face the Nation” on Sunday. Details about Trump’s tariff rebate proposal remain sparse. Trump has said he wants to issue the rebate checks and use the rest of the tariff revenue to pay down the nation’s $38 trillion debt, even as the U.S. Supreme Court has not yet determined whether he has the authority to impose tariffs.

Nowadays, when there is good news, the Market goes down, because everybody thinks that Interest Rates will be immediately lifted to take care of “potential” Inflation. That means that, essentially, we can never have a Great Market again, those Markets from the time when our Nation was building up, and becoming great. Strong Markets, even phenomenal Markets, don't cause Inflation, stupidity does! I want my new Fed Chairman to lower Interest Rates if the Market is doing well, not destroy the Market for no reason whatsoever. I want to have a Market the likes of which we haven't had in many decades, a Market that goes up on good news, and down on bad news, the way it should be, and the way it was. Inflation will take care of itself and, if it doesn't, we can always raise Rates at the appropriate time — But the appropriate time is not to kill Rallies, which could lift our Nation by 10, 15, and even 20 GDP points in a year — and maybe even more than that! A Nation can never be Economically GREAT if “eggheads” are allowed to do everything within their power to destroy the upward slope. We are going to be encouraging the Good Market to get better, rather than make it impossible for it to do so. We are going to see numbers that are far more natural, and far better, than they have ever been before. We are going to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

The video – which was revealed to be computer-generated – is timestamped August 10, 2019 at 4:29 am ET – Epstein was found dead at 6:30 am ET on August 10, 2019. Prosecutors previously said that the two CCTV cameras positioned outside of Epstein's cell had malfunctioned. The 10-second recreation video shows Epstein sitting on the floor of his cell attempting to kill himself.

Epstein told prison staff he didn't remember what happened but was afraid to return to the Special Housing Unit, saying it was “where he had gotten marks on his neck and he does not know why it happened.” He said he had only slept 30 minutes a night for five days due to noise and stress. His cellmate, ex-cop Nicholas Tartaglione, had reportedly been harassing him, and Epstein claimed “he tried to kill me.” Staff noted Tartaglione had been aggressive and was seen mocking Epstein with a string around his neck. Despite these signs, the incident was labeled a “possible suicide attempt.” https://twitter.com/MarioNawfal/status/2003292687835787393?s=20 were actively tracking and attempting to contact 10 individuals connected to Epstein’s crimes.

A separate confidential document from law firm Debevoise & Plimpton lists SDNY matters they appeared in, including one entry: “Wexner: Epstein investigation.” 10 co-conspirators.

And they can't get it. At one point, frustration boils over into honesty: “The FBI is completely fucking us on this.” That's not a tweet. That's an internal DOJ message. Translation: the prosecutors responsible for bringing cases did not have a clear, reliable accounting of the evidence in the FBI's possession. Not what was seized. Not what was imaged. Not what was searchable. Not what was missing. This isn't incompetence in a vacuum. It's structural. Evidence control is power. Whoever controls the data controls the pace, the scope, and the fallout. And remember: Epstein died before trial. Maxwell was prosecuted narrowly. No broader conspiracy case ever materialized. Prediction: this is why. Not because the evidence didn't exist- but because it never cohered into something prosecutors could safely touch without detonating their own case. The scandal isn't just who was on the tapes. It's that even the feds couldn't tell you where the tapes went. That's not a cover-up movie plot.

To be clear: the claims are unfounded and false, and if they had a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponized against President Trump already.” New: More Epstein Files Drop, and Donald Trump Appears to Be the Star This Time Around So, what incriminating evidence against President Trump is to be found in this latest drop? Apparently, an email from January 2020 in which a federal prosecutor from New York – of course – to an “undisclosed person” claiming Trump had flown on Jeffrey Epstein’s private plan at least eight times during the 1990s, and one time there was a 20-year-old woman on the flight. Here’s more: The email, which was sent in January 2020 from a federal prosecutor in New York to an undisclosed person, says, “For your situational awareness, wanted to let you know that the flight records we received yesterday reflect that Donald Trump traveled on Epstein's private jet many more times than previously has been reported (or that we were aware), including during the period we would expect to charge in a [Ghislaine] Maxwell case.” This big revelation is that Trump traveled a few more times than we previously knew, although this was during a time period that the president has already acknowledged having had an association with Epstein. Note the timing of the email – January 2020 is when the presidential election would be kicking into full swing. This anonymous federal prosecutor clearly thought they had a gotcha moment, but there’s a pesky little detail that puts things in perspective: “[Trump] is listed as having traveled with, among others and at various times, Marla Maples, his daughter Tiffany, and his son Eric.” Source: redstate.com The specific document you’re referring to appears to be the complaint filed in the 2020 civil lawsuit Doe v. Indyke et al. (Case No. 1:20-cv-00484, S.D.N.Y.), which was part of the recently released Epstein files by the U.S. Department of Justice. This lawsuit was brought by an anonymous plaintiff (“Jane Doe”) against the executors of Jeffrey Epstein’s estate (Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn) and Ghislaine Maxwell, seeking compensation for alleged sexual abuse and trafficking by Epstein.How Trump’s Name Appears in the DocumentOn page 4 of the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that during one of her encounters with Epstein (around the 1990s), he took her to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida when she was 14 years old. Epstein reportedly introduced her to Donald Trump (then the owner of Mar-a-Lago), elbowed him playfully, and asked, referring to the girl, “This is a good one, right?” Trump is described as smiling and nodding in agreement, after which they both chuckled. The plaintiff states she felt uncomfortable but was too young to understand why at the time. The document does not accuse Trump of any criminal wrongdoing or involvement in Epstein’s abuse; it frames this as part of the broader context of her grooming and exploitation by Epstein.How the Name Got Into the DocumentTrump’s name was included as part of the plaintiff’s personal allegations detailing her experiences with Epstein. The complaint is a legal filing where the victim recounts specific incidents to support her claims against Epstein’s estate and associates. It reflects her firsthand account, not a court-verified fact or evidence from other sources. There is no mention of independent corroboration (e.g., witnesses, photos, or records) in the filing itself, and it has not been adjudicated in court as true.Source of the AllegationThe source is the anonymous plaintiff (“Jane Doe”), who claims to be a victim of Epstein’s abuse starting from age 13 or 14. She was reportedly recruited at a summer camp in Michigan and alleges ongoing grooming and assaults by Epstein over several years. This Doe is distinct from other known accusers like Virginia Giuffre, though a similar incident (Epstein introducing a 14-year-old to Trump at Mar-a-Lago without the “good one” comment) was testified to by another accuser (“Jane”) during Ghislaine Maxwell’s 2021 criminal trial. https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/2003236602374713557?s=20 DOGE Geopolitical https://twitter.com/BreannaMorello/status/2003196698974191914?s=20 that are protected under the Constitution. Under D.C. law, anyone wishing to own a firearm must register it with the MPD. However, the D.C. Code imposes a sweeping ban on the registration—and thus the legal possession—of a wide range of firearms. This broad prohibition, the Justice Department argues, infringes on the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens who seek to keep and bear commonly owned firearms for lawful purposes. Trump's DOJ Sues Washington, D.C. Police Department Over Unconstitutional Ban on Semi-Automatic Firearms The Department of Justice has filed a lawsuit against the District of Columbia's Metropolitan Police Department for enforcing a ban on semi-automatic firearms in violation of the Second Amendment. The lawsuit alleges that D.C.'s gun laws require registration of all firearms with the MPD; however, the D.C. Code imposes a sweeping ban on numerous protected weapons, making it legally impossible for residents to own them for self-defense or other lawful purposes. The DOJ said in a press release announcing the lawsuit: “MPD's current pattern and practice of refusing to register protected firearms is forcing residents to sue to protect their rights and to risk facing wrongful arrest for lawfully possessing protected firearms.” “Today's action from the Department of Justice's new Second Amendment Section underscores our ironclad commitment to protecting the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. Bondi continued, “Washington, DC's ban on some of America's most popular firearms is an unconstitutional infringement on the Second Amendment — living in our nation's capital should not preclude law-abiding citizens from exercising their fundamental constitutional right to keep and bear arms.” Echoing this sentiment, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Civil Rights Division added, “This Civil Rights Division will defend American citizens from unconstitutional restrictions of commonly used firearms, in violation of their Second Amendment rights. The newly established Second Amendment Section filed this lawsuit to ensure that the very rights D.C. resident Mr. Heller secured 17 years ago are enforced today — and that all law-abiding citizens seeking to own protected firearms for lawful purposes may do so.” The case draws directly from the landmark 2008 Supreme Court decision in District of Columbia v. Heller, where the Court affirmed that the Second Amendment protects the right of law-abiding citizens to own semi-automatic weapons in their homes for self-defense.

However, precision air strikes on cartel assets seems like a probable outcome. Trump is neutralizing Deep State assets around the globe, and South/Central American drug cartels are assets of the Deep State. They are transnational criminal organizations responsible for the drug, weapon, and human trafficking of the Western hemisphere, and their racket feeds the Deep State machine. My guess is, that cartel drug factories and assets are going to get smoked by the US MIL via precision air strikes, and the other powerful leaders of the world have already agreed to some sort of deal with Trump and no one will interfere. Just like Iran and Syria. I think most of the leaders/nations of the world agree with Trump that these transnational criminal organizations must be eradicated, and stability must be brought to the world. President Unveils ‘Trump Class’ Of Warships, Huntington Ingalls Shares Jump build two new “Trump-class” battleships, to acquire 20-25 of these ships in the coming years. In his address, the President noted these 30,000-40,000 ton ships will carry a large quantity of missiles, including hypersonic missiles, and will also be outfitted with electromagnetic rail guns and directed energy lasers. Trump-class battleships will also carry nuclear-armed sea launched cruise missiles (currently under development) adding an additional element of nuclear deterrence to the Navy. Trump-class destroyers appear to be designed as the center of enhanced command and control networks at sea, as the Navy looks to field more autonomous assets and traditional vessels in the coming years. The first “Trump-class” battleship will be named USS Defiant, and it will be even longer than the Iowa-class battleships of the World War II era. However, at 35,000 tons, it will only weigh about half as much, and have a smaller crew of between 650 and 850 sailors; the Iowa had some 2,700 sailors. The new ships — which are being called “guided missile battleships” — are part of larger vision for a “Golden Fleet.” The Navy has rolled out a website to promote that concept. Sources tell AP that construction of the Defiant is expected to start in the early 2030’s, with another 19 to 24 Trump-class ships to follow.

Altonaga of the Federal District Court for the Southern District of Florida, their client is a “target” of a grand jury investigation. The word “target” is important here, because the letter specifically outlines how Brennan has received subpoenas for documents and information surrounding his construct of the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment. The letter notes that prosecutors from the Office of the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Jason Reding Quiñones, have advised Mr. Brennan that he is “a target” of a grand jury investigation.

Requiring Penetration Testing As Part Of The Testing And Certification of Voting Systems. This section amends the Help America Vote Act of 2002 by adding a “Required Penetration Testing” section that “provides for the conduct of penetration testing as part of the testing, certification, decertification, and recertification of voting system hardware and software” by an accredited laboratory. The amendment now requires the penetration testing as a condition of certification from the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) and allows consultation with the National Institute of Standards and Technology or any other federal agency on “lab selection criteria” and “other aspects of the program.” While this is still short of a legitimate attempt at ensuring election integrity, it is an effort toward scrutinizing the voting systems by finally requiring cybersecurity experts to do what Clay Parikh was restricted from doing during his time as a VSTL contractor. Hand-marked paper ballots hand-counted at the precinct level, is being utilized in Dallas County, TX for the 2026 midterm primaries, and is still the ultimate goal of the election integrity community to ensure free and fair elections in the United States. Source: thegatewaypundit.com Penetration testing, often abbreviated as “pen testing,” is a cybersecurity practice where authorized experts simulate real-world cyberattacks on a computer system, network, or application to identify and exploit vulnerabilities before malicious actors can do so. The goal is to uncover weaknesses in security measures, such as software flaws, misconfigurations, or inadequate defenses, and provide recommendations for remediation. It typically involves several stages: Planning and reconnaissance: Gathering information about the target system. Scanning: Using tools to probe for potential entry points. Gaining access: Attempting to exploit vulnerabilities to breach the system. Maintaining access: Testing how long access can be sustained without detection. Analysis and reporting: Documenting findings, risks, and fixes. In the context of Section 6805 of the Fiscal Year 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which incorporates provisions from the SECURE IT Act (H.R. 6315), penetration testing is mandated as part of the testing, certification, decertification, and recertification process for voting system hardware and software. The Election Assistance Commission (EAC) must implement this requirement within 180 days of enactment, with accreditation of testing entities handled through recommendations from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This ensures that voting systems used in federal elections undergo rigorous cybersecurity assessments to detect and mitigate vulnerabilities, enhancing election security Poll: Trump's Approval Rating Lands at 50 Percent, 9 Points Above Water President Donald Trump enjoys a 50 percent approval rating, with a net approval rating of plus 9 points, according to the latest polling from InsiderAdvantage.

Maritza Vazquez, who worked as a bookkeeper for MC2 Model Management, provided critical testimony placing Jean‑Luc Brunel and Jeffrey Epstein at the center of a carefully managed system of underage recruitment and abuse. In her deposition, she identified Brunel as a regular passenger on Epstein's private jet and noted that Epstein often traveled with girls recruited through MC2—some as young as 14. Vazquez testified that flight logs deliberately omitted the names of some female passengers, suggesting efforts to conceal underage trafficking. She recounted Brunel's active role in sourcing vulnerable girls from abroad and introducing them into Epstein's orbit, effectively operating as a global trafficking coordinator.Vazquez further corroborated that Epstein frequently displayed controlling behavior: he referred to Brunel's recruits as inventory rather than people, casually discussing having “slept with over a thousand of Brunel's girls,” according to court documents. Her detailed bookkeeping records and firsthand accounts of scheduling, money flow, and logistics provided prosecutors with evidence of a pipeline feeding Epstein's sex ring. The deposition exposed how MC2 transactions and Brunel's agency served as the administrative and logistical backbone for Epstein's exploitation operation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Maritza Vasquez Deposition - Discussing Jeffrey Epstein, Jean-Luc Brunel, Donald Trump | DocumentCloud

Jeffrey Epstein's activities in Central and South America remain one of the least examined yet most revealing aspects of his global predation network. Testimony from Maritza Vázquez, a former employee of Jean-Luc Brunel's MC2 agency, describes a structured pipeline that funneled dozens of vulnerable young girls from countries like Peru and Brazil into the United States under the guise of modeling opportunities. According to Vázquez, these regions were not only recruitment grounds but also sites of direct abuse, where Epstein and Brunel allegedly exploited extreme poverty, weak oversight, and institutional indifference. The pattern closely mirrors Brunel's operations in Eastern Europe, suggesting a standardized, repeatable trafficking model rather than isolated misconduct. Taken together, the evidence points to a deliberate strategy of targeting populations least likely to be protected or believed.What emerges from this broader view is the staggering scale and complexity of Epstein's operation, which depended on far more than one man's criminality. His ability to operate for decades across continents required cooperation or negligence from multiple institutions, including modeling agencies, immigration systems, financial intermediaries, and legal professionals. The limited number of publicly identified victims likely represents only a fraction of those harmed, with the true figure plausibly reaching into the thousands. Central and South America functioned as deeper blind spots, where victims were more easily silenced and abuses less likely to attract international scrutiny. The lack of comprehensive global investigations into these regions has left major gaps in accountability, reinforcing the conclusion that Epstein's crimes were not only vast, but systematically enabled by inequality, corruption, and selective attention.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Jean-Luc Brunel's downfall was long, slow, and ultimately terminal, shaped by years of mounting allegations that finally caught up with him once Jeffrey Epstein's empire collapsed into public view. As a French modeling agent with deep ties to Epstein, Brunel had been accused for decades by multiple women of sexual assault, rape, and trafficking under the guise of modeling opportunities, often involving minors. For years, those accusations lingered in the shadows—reported, dismissed, settled quietly, or stalled by jurisdictional inertia—while Brunel continued operating within elite fashion and social circles. That insulation cracked after Epstein's 2019 arrest and death, which forced renewed scrutiny onto his inner circle and revived allegations that had never been fully resolved. French prosecutors reopened investigations, survivors came forward in greater numbers and with greater confidence, and Brunel's role shifted from background enabler to central target.In 2020, Brunel was arrested in France and charged with multiple counts including rape of a minor and sexual assault, marking a definitive end to the protection his proximity to wealth and power had once afforded him. He was held in pretrial detention while investigators worked through a sprawling case built on survivor testimony spanning decades and continents, a stark reversal from the impunity he had previously enjoyed. In February 2022, before any trial could begin, Brunel was found dead in his prison cell in what authorities ruled a suicide, bringing legal proceedings to an abrupt halt but not erasing the weight of the allegations against him. His death closed the door on courtroom accountability but underscored a broader truth of the Epstein saga: that many of the men who operated inside that world relied on delay, denial, and institutional fatigue as shields—and that even when those shields finally failed, full justice remained elusive.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Send us a textForget the postcard version of Dodge City. We open the door to the Great Western Hotel and step into a town intent on trading dust for dignity, noise for order, and short-term profits for a longer arc of respectability. The surprise is in the name itself: Great Western wasn't a nod to cattle drives; it was a bid to borrow the prestige of Brunel's railway and steamship, the Victorian shorthand for speed, reliability, and modern life. That branding choice tells us more about ambition on the plains than any staged gunfight ever could.We follow the transformation from the unpolished Western House to a hotel with plate glass, private rooms, and a no-whiskey policy under Dr. Samuel Galland, a German immigrant who believed Dodge City could be sober and civilized. Along the way, we separate trail reality from tourist memory: drovers called it the Western or the Dodge City Trail, while the phrase Great Western Trail arrived decades later through scholarship and heritage markers that retconned the landscape. The evidence runs through ledgers, newspapers, and the lived language of the men who drove the herds.The human stories make the stakes tangible. A silk-top-hatted dentist walks Front Street on principle and learns the cost of standing out before earning respect. Fires scorch the business district, owners come and go, the hotel changes names and survives the Dust Bowl, then vanishes in 1942—only to reappear as a museum gateway that sits near modern trail markers, inviting a tempting but false connection. What remains is the real takeaway: the West wasn't just won by grit; it was branded into being by people who knew that names can move minds as surely as rails move trains.If this reframe challenged a myth you held, share the episode, leave a rating, and tell us which Western “truth” you want us to unpack next.

Photos showing Jean-Luc Brunel and Ghislaine Maxwell together on Jeffrey Epstein's private island, Little Saint James, function as damning visual evidence of their direct presence inside the epicenter of Epstein's operation. These images don't show distant acquaintances or innocent vacationers — they show two of Epstein's closest and most active enablers relaxing comfortably in the middle of the Caribbean paradise that survivors have described as a hub of industrial-scale sexual exploitation. Maxwell appears seated poolside, casual and at ease, while Brunel stands nearby, smiling, moving freely around the property as if he belonged there. These are not images of people merely passing through; they depict the inner circle, enjoying the spoils of a predator's empire, positioned exactly where countless victims say the abuse occurred.Taken together, the photos strip away decades of denial and PR spin designed to portray Epstein's network as a loose association of wealthy socialites. Maxwell — the convicted trafficker — and Brunel — the modeling agent long tied to supplying girls through his agency connections — stand shoulder-to-shoulder on the very ground where survivors say horrors unfolded behind closed doors. Their presence on Little Saint James confirms what so many already understood: Epstein's island was not a rumor or a conspiracy theory, but a fully operational center of power, protected by money, influence, and silence. The images lock Maxwell and Brunel permanently into the geography of Epstein's crimes, proving that their roles were not distant or theoretical — they were right there, in the sun, enjoying the view.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
Kenneth Lasoen joins Lisa Burke to expose modern espionage, from cyberattacks to insider threats and the hidden power struggles shaping our world today. I wonder if John Le Carré's protagonist spy, George Smiley, could recognise the world of tradecraft today. Dr Kenneth Lasoen is one of Europe's foremost intelligence and security scholars. He serves as Associate Professor of Intelligence & Security at the University of Antwerp, Senior Lecturer at the KSI Institute, and is an advisor to governments, institutions and major corporations on national security, counterintelligence, and risk mitigation. His academic background includes degrees from Ghent, Leuven, Brunel and Cambridge; and the Belgian Royal Military Academy. Kenneth's research focuses on espionage, insider threats, economic and industrial spying, and how intelligence agencies shape geopolitics and corporate competition. He also briefs senior industry leaders on cybersecurity, supply-chain vulnerabilities, and foreign influence operations. Espionage has slipped out of the shadows and into everyday life. It's no longer a distant Cold War memory of trench coats, microfilm and whispered exchanges in European capitals. In the 2025 world, the spy wars are being fought through our smartphones, coded supply chains, university labs, satellites, corporate R&D hubs, and even the unlocked devices on our desks. Every industry is a target. Every citizen, a potential data point. Every corporation, hackable banks of information. Kenneth reveals the uncomfortable truth: • Allies spy on allies, because they can • Insider threats (it just takes one) can bankrupt global companies • Cyber incidents can cripple supply chains instantly • The Internet of Things is, in reality, the Internet of Hacked Things • Some of the most devastating breaches begin with the simplest human error (or human intent) Russia, China, North Korea and Iran might operate aggressively in the intelligence space, but Western governments, corporations and academia are deeply enmeshed in their own networks of surveillance, information-gathering and counter-espionage. Kenneth also brings the story closer to home: into research labs, corporate headquarters, scientific centres, and even vineyards. He explains why security failures often start from the inside, why organisations underestimate their risk, and how a single breach, digital or human, can destroy decades of innovation. There are vulnerabilities across all parts of our society that touch every citizen and business. https://ksi.institute/en/

It strains credulity to believe that the world around Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell—filled with elite elites in finance, tech, entertainment, and fashion—was completely unaware of what was going on. For example, Ellen Pao, former Reddit CEO and one-time partner at venture firm Kleiner Perkins, publicly stated that Maxwell was invited to a Silicon Valley holiday party in 2011 despite existing reports that she was supplying underage girls for sex. Pao wrote that “we knew about her supplying underage girls for sex” and yet “that was fine with the ‘cool' people who managed the tightly controlled guest list.” This confession suggests that circles of power didn't just “miss” what was happening—they arguably chose to ignore it.Similarly, the modeling industry had whispered about the predatory nature of agents like Jean‑Luc Brunel long before the Epstein-Maxwell drama exploded. Brunel was a longtime model scout and agency boss who received millions from Epstein to expand his business, and his name repeatedly came up in allegations of sexual misconduct dating back decades. The fact that such warnings were circulating in fashion—well before the mainstream reckoning—raises the question: how could so many people connected to these men claim no knowledge, no signs, no suspicion? When one entire industry quietly signals something is rotten, it becomes much harder to swallow wholesale claims of unaware innocence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Pao wrote that “we knew about her supplying underage girls for sex” and yet “that was fine with the ‘cool' people who managed the tightly controlled guest list.” This confession suggests that circles of power didn't just “miss” what was happening—they arguably chose to ignore it.Similarly, the modeling industry had whispered about the predatory nature of agents like Jean‑Luc Brunel long before the Epstein-Maxwell drama exploded. Brunel was a longtime model scout and agency boss who received millions from Epstein to expand his business, and his name repeatedly came up in allegations of sexual misconduct dating back decades. The fact that such warnings were circulating in fashion—well before the mainstream reckoning—raises the question: how could so many people connected to these men claim no knowledge, no signs, no suspicion? When one entire industry quietly signals something is rotten, it becomes much harder to swallow wholesale claims of unaware innocence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Episode: 1473 Two unsinkable ships: the Titanic and the Great Eastern. Today, a story of two ships. One sank. One didn't.
Steve Mnuchin's ties to Jean-Luc Brunel surfaced when public corporate records showed Mnuchin listed as the official “state point of contact” for Next Management Corporation, the U.S. entity founded by Brunel and his brother in 1988. The designation placed Mnuchin on paperwork connected to Brunel's modeling empire — the same empire later accused of funneling underage girls to Jeffrey Epstein. Mnuchin's office publicly distanced him from the connection, claiming he had no memory of meeting Brunel, no involvement with the company, and no explanation for why his name appeared on the documents. But the linkage remains one of the many odd, unresolved overlaps in the Epstein network where powerful figures appear on paperwork nobody seems eager to explain.Robert F. Kennedy Jr. publicly acknowledged that he flew twice on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet. He said the first flight was in 1993 when he was traveling to Florida with his wife and two children, and the second occurred on another occasion when he was joined by his wife and four children going to South Dakota “to go fossil hunting”. He asserted these trips took place about thirty years ago, before Epstein's criminal conduct was widely known, and insisted he was never alone with Epstein. Kennedy emphasized that his participation was incidental and familial in nature—he described the flights as carrying his family on leisure or research-oriented outings, not as part of any ongoing relationship with Epstein. He also called for full transparency around Epstein's network and urged that the “high-level political people” involved in Epstein's activities be subject to public disclosure.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

An important discovery that has come out of computational neuroscience, is that cortical neurons in vivo appear to receive so-called balanced inputs. In the balanced state the excitatory and inhibitory synaptic inputs to a neuron are about equal, and action potentials occur when a fluctuation temporarily makes the excitation dominate. The theory, for example, explains the observed irregular firing of cortical neurons in the background state. Today's guest was one of the key developers of the theory in the late 1990s.
Jean-Luc Brunel, the disgraced French modeling agent and close associate of Jeffrey Epstein, was accused in court filings of one of the most disturbing acts linked to the Epstein network — procuring a set of 12-year-old French triplets for Epstein as a “birthday gift.” According to testimony from Virginia Giuffre and other witnesses, Epstein allegedly bragged that Brunel had “bought them from their parents” in Paris by offering money and promises of modeling careers. The triplets were reportedly flown to the U.S., abused for several days, and then returned to France. While Brunel denied any involvement, the story became emblematic of how he allegedly exploited his modeling connections to funnel young girls into Epstein's orbit under the guise of legitimate work.The accusations fit a larger pattern of abuse stretching across Brunel's decades in the fashion industry. He was widely accused of using his agency, MC2 Model Management, which Epstein helped fund, to traffic underage girls from Europe and South America. French prosecutors arrested Brunel in December 2020 on charges of rape and trafficking minors, but before he could face trial, he was found hanged in his Paris jail cell in February 2022 — an eerily similar fate to Epstein's. His death left many questions unanswered, including the true extent of his role in supplying girls to Epstein and whether the triplets' story was ever properly investigated.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
There are a number of shocking and lurid messages, uncovered in court documents and police files, that tie Jean-Luc Brunel to Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking network. One especially chilling note, seized by Florida investigators in around 2005, reportedly came from Brunel (or at least via Brunel's associates) offering Epstein a “teacher” to give him “free lessons.” The message reads: “He has a teacher for you to teach how to speak Russian. She is two-times eight years old. Not blond.” That cruel phrasing suggested a child of 16 (2×8) was being offered, and whether literal or coded, it heightened suspicion about Brunel's role in procuring underage girls for Epstein.Beyond texts, Brunel's connection to Epstein is reinforced by multiple models' accusations and legal filings. Virginia Giuffre has claimed Brunel directed her to meet Epstein, and materials in unsealed lawsuits show Brunel was accused of using his modeling agencies to traffic girls, recruiting young women under promises of modeling that turned into sexual assignments. He was listed as a passenger on Epstein's flights, and emails and court exhibits reference his involvement in supplying girls to Epstein.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

While Jean-Luc Brunel sat in a grim French jail cell, staring down the end of his life and the wreckage of his modeling empire, Prince Andrew was seen doing what royals do best — pretending none of it applied to him. Photos and reports surfaced of him going for a casual horseback ride on the Windsor grounds, grinning like a man untouched by consequence. The contrast couldn't have been starker: Brunel, Epstein's Paris pipeline, locked away in La Santé Prison on charges of trafficking and rape, while Andrew trotted through the countryside in full riding gear, shielded by royal walls and plausible deniability. It was the perfect snapshot of class immunity — one man behind bars, the other galloping freely, both tethered to the same monster.To the public, it read like a message. Brunel was expendable. Maxwell was disposable. But Andrew? Untouchable. The optics were so brazen they bordered on parody — a royal heir, under the shadow of the same scandal that destroyed his friends, out for a leisurely ride as if nothing had happened. While Brunel stewed in isolation, denied bail, and eventually turned up dead, Andrew stayed insulated in royal privilege, convinced that the sunlight couldn't reach his side of the wall. It was the same arrogance that had defined his entire approach to Epstein — denial, detachment, and a delusional belief that titles could wash away filth.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
Jean-Luc Brunel, the French modeling agent and longtime associate of Jeffrey Epstein, was found dead in his La Santé prison cell in Paris on February 19, 2022, in what authorities immediately labeled a suicide by hanging. Brunel had been under investigation for rape, sexual harassment, and the trafficking of minors, accused by several women—including Virginia Giuffre—of grooming and supplying underage models to Epstein and other powerful men. His death occurred before his case could reach trial, instantly reigniting suspicions about how another key figure in the Epstein network could die under eerily similar circumstances to Epstein himself. Victims expressed outrage, saying Brunel's death robbed them of justice and silenced a potential witness who might have revealed more about the structure and reach of Epstein's global operation.The official narrative—that Brunel's death was a suicide—sparked widespread skepticism and frustration across France and beyond. Reports emerged that Brunel had been on suicide watch previously, prompting questions about prison oversight, security lapses, and whether his death was preventable—or possibly convenient. Critics drew parallels to Epstein's own jailhouse death in 2019, arguing that both men's sudden “suicides” effectively closed critical avenues of investigation into elite sex-trafficking networks. French prosecutors confirmed no foul play was “immediately suspected,” but they acknowledged the timing and circumstances raised understandable public concern. To this day, Brunel's death remains shrouded in doubt, a haunting echo of a global scandal that continues to expose the failures of institutions to deliver full accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Jean-Luc Brunel, a French modeling agent and long-time associate of Jeffrey Epstein, was under growing French criminal investigations since around 2019 for alleged sexual exploitation, rape, trafficking of minors, and supplying underage girls to Epstein. Brunel founded agencies such as Karin Models and MC2 Model Management (with Epstein's financial backing) and has been accused by former models of years of abuse: drugging, sexual assault, and exploiting young women who were often from vulnerable backgrounds. French prosecutors officially charged him in December 2020 with rape of minors (over 15) and sexual harassment, among other offenses, and investigators were probing his role in a wider network of abuse connected to Epstein.However, Brunel's case never reached a full trial. In February 2022, he was found dead in his cell at La Santé Prison in Paris, reportedly by suicide, while in pre-trial detention. His death came after multiple suicide attempts. The result: many of his alleged victims were denied the opportunity for legal closure in court. His passing both ended the criminal proceedings against him and left significant questions unanswered about the fullness of his culpability, the extent of networked complicity, and how much evidence was gathered and might still yet emerge.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Giuffre has accused Brunel of sexually abusing her while she was a minor and corroborated allegations that he facilitated trafficking of young women to Epstein and others by leveraging the allure of modeling opportunitiesHer evidence significantly strengthened the case against Brunel and helped prompt French prosecutors to pursue formal investigations and charges—particularly regarding the exploitation of underage girls under the pretext of modeling.

Jean-Luc Brunel, the French modeling agent long accused of procuring girls for Jeffrey Epstein, filed a lawsuit against Epstein in Florida before Epstein's death. In his complaint, Brunel alleged that Epstein had misappropriated large sums of money that were intended for business ventures, particularly investments related to Brunel's modeling agency. He claimed that Epstein had promised financial backing but failed to honor those commitments, leaving Brunel financially exposed and damaging his professional reputation.The suit was seen as part of a broader unraveling of Epstein's network, highlighting internal fractures among his former associates. While Brunel presented himself as a wronged business partner, critics noted that the lawsuit appeared calculated to distance him from Epstein's abuse scandal and reframe his relationship as primarily financial. Ultimately, the filing underscored both the complexity of Epstein's financial dealings and the desperation of those in his orbit to protect themselves legally and reputationally as Epstein's crimes came under renewed scrutiny.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:To contact me:Bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.thedailybeast.com/model-king-sues-billionaire-perv-jeffrey-epstein

The Great Exhibition of 1851 was something to behold for the 6 million Victorian patrons who travelled to London's Hyde Park to see it. It was a triumphant showcase of the most extraordinary achievements of the Victorian age from industry, culture and engineering - gathered from all four corners of the globe. As visitors walked the 8 miles of exhibitions, they would have seen everything from the sublime to the absurd: the world's largest diamond, a contraption to predict the weather using leeches, the world's first public flushing toilets and a two-person piano.The enormous glass and iron building that housed the exhibition was big enough to house four St Pauls Cathedrals and its construction involved some of the most famous engineers of the Victorian age - Brunel, Faraday, Stephenson and Paxton.To tell Dan the story of the Crystal Palace is historian and conservationist Steven Brindle.Produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Tim Arstall.You can now find Dan Snow's History Hit on YouTube!
