This is a story about the dirty secrets of the most powerful people in the world—including Donald Trump.Based on exclusive interviews with intelligence officers in the CIA, FBI, and the KGB, thousands of pages of FBI investigations, police investigations, and news articles in English, Russian, and Ukrainian. American Kompromat shows that from Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, kompromat was used in operations far more sinister than the public could ever imagine. The book addresses what may be the single most important unanswered question of the entire Trump era: Is Donald Trump a Russian asset? The answer, American Kompromat says, is yes, supporting that conclusion with the first richly detailed narrative on how the KGB allegedly first “spotted” Trump as a potential asset, how it cultivated him, arranged his first trip to Moscow, and pumped him full of KGB talking points. Among its many revelations, American Kompromat reports for the first time that: • According to former KGB major Yuri Shvets, Trump first did business over forty years ago with a Manhattan electronics store co-owned by a Soviet émigré, triggering protocols through which the Soviet spy agency began efforts to cultivate Trump as an asset, launching a decades-long “relationship” of mutual benefit to Russia and Trump, from real estate to real power. • Trump's 1987 invitation to Moscow was billed as a scouting trip for a hotel, but according to Shvets, was actually initiated by a high-level KGB official. These sorts of trips were usually arranged for "deep development." • Before Trump's first Moscow trip, he met with Natalia Dubinin, who worked at the United Nations library in a vital position usually reserved as a cover for KGB operatives. • In 1987, according to Shvets, the KGB circulated an internal cable hailing the successful execution of an active measure by a newly cultivated American asset who took out full-page ads in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Boston Globe promoting policies promoted by the KGB. The ads had been taken out by Donald Trump, who, Shvets said, would become a “special unofficial contact” for the KGB.In addition to exploring Trump's ties to the KGB, American Kompromat also reveals: • How Jeffrey Epstein and Trump jostled for influence and financial supremacy for years. Epstein became a millionaire in part with the help of Ghislaine Maxwell's father—media tycoon Robert Maxwell, who allegedly served as a spy and likely gave Epstein a sum between $10 and $20 million before his death in 1991. • How the Epstein-Ghislaine Maxwell sex-trafficking operation provided a source and marketplace for sexual kompromat. • How the Epstein-Maxwell ring helped enable young women with possible ties to Russian intelligence to gain access to the highest levels of Silicon Valley and the worlds of artificial intelligence, supercomputers, and the internet. This, at a time when Vladimir Putin has asserted, “Whoever becomes the leader in this sphere [artificial intelligence] will become the ruler of the world.” • How John Mark Dougan, a former deputy sheriff in Mar-a-Lago's Palm Beach County, says he acquired 478 videos confiscated from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, fled to Moscow, became only the fourth American to win asylum in Russia, and immediately gained access to Putin's inner circle, showing the ongoing power that comes from kompromat and how its value is highest before it is “used.”https://amzn.to/4i4T3dKBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
In this final episode of the series on the Fruit of the Spirit, Dan Holland wraps it all up with one powerful truth: the Spirit-filled life isn't about trying harder—it's about abiding deeper in Christ. From John 15 and Psalm 1, we're reminded that a life rooted in Jesus naturally produces the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. The secret to lasting transformation isn't willpower; it's connection. When we stay planted in the Word of God, the Spirit does the growing.Discover how abiding in Jesus changes what “spills out” when life bumps you—and how the Holy Spirit produces fruit that lasts.If you are interested in starting a micro church or hosting a small group in your home with like-minded individuals, we've got you covered.

American Kompromat unravels the Russian-influenced operations that amassed the dirty little secrets of the richest and most powerful men on earth. American Kompromat is based on extended and exclusive interviews with high-level sources in the KGB, CIA, and FBI, as well as lawyers at white-shoe Washington firms, associates of Jeffrey Epstein, and thousands of pages of FBI reports, police investigations, and news articles in English, Russian, and Ukrainian. A narrative offering jaw-dropping context, and set in Upper East Side mansions and private Caribbean islands, gigantic yachts, and private jets, American Kompromat shows that, from Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, Russian operations transformed the darkest secrets of the most powerful people in the world into potent weapons that served its interests. Among its many revelations, American Kompromat addresses what may be the single most important unanswered question of the entire Trump era ― and one that Unger argues is even more important now that Trump is out of office: Was Donald Trump a Russian asset? Just how compromised was he? And how could such an audacious feat have been accomplished? To answer these questions and more, Craig Unger reports, is to understand kompromat ― operations that amassed compromising information on the richest and most powerful men on earth, and that leveraged power by appealing to what is, for some, the most prized possession of all: their vanity. This is a story that transcends the end of the Trump administration, illuminating a major underreported aspect of Trump's corruption that has profoundly damaged American democracy.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Real strength doesn't shout—it restores. In this week's Podcast, Dan Holland unpacks the fruit of the Spirit called gentleness…not weakness, but strength under control. Through Galatians 6:1–10, Dan shows how true gentleness is power used wisely…to lift others up rather than tear them down. You'll also see how Jesus modeled perfect gentleness: calming a crowd ready to stone a woman (John 8), telling Peter to put away his sword in Gethsemane, and forgiving his executioners from the cross. That's divine strength, perfectly restrained. You'll learn how to let the Spirit shape your responses so that what “spills out” of your life brings restoration instead of destruction.If you are interested in starting a micro church or hosting a small group in your home with like-minded individuals, we've got you covered.

The Great Eight Answers1. Best Coaching Advice Ever Received:“You cannot give to others what you have not first cultivated within yourself.”Eric lives this. From journaling to marriage counseling to feedback loops with his kids, he believes the inside work fuels the outside impact.2.

He's learning to bring in structure and process to support long-term client journeys without squashing creativity.3. Most Outrageous Coaching Move:Challenging billionaires and C-suite execs—calling out toxic behaviors with clarity and grace. He calls it outrageous. We call it next-level courage.4. What Still Makes Him Uncomfortable:Sharing his own failures in sessions. It's not about making it about him—it's about being real, modeling vulnerability, and building trust. Still awkward. Still necessary.5. Advice for New Coaches:Apprentice with someone greatGet a frameworkPractice on guinea pigs for freeAlso: imitate before you innovate. (Spoiler: YouTube isn't a mentor.)6. What He's Had to Conquer:Himself. His insecurities. And surprisingly—his fear of success. As the stakes get higher, he wrestles with staying uncomfortable in the right ways.7. How He Uses AI:He's feeding all his content into an “EmpowerBot” that mimics his voice and philosophy.
