Jeffrey Epstein used a web of charitable foundations to project legitimacy, influence, and intellectual respectability while concealing the true nature of his activities. Through entities such as the Jeffrey Epstein Foundation and related philanthropic vehicles, Epstein positioned himself as a benefactor of science, education, and elite institutions, donating money to universities, researchers, and high-profile causes. These foundations allowed Epstein to gain proximity to powerful academics, politicians, and financiers, creating the appearance of a wealthy eccentric philanthropist rather than a criminal predator. In practice, the charitable structure functioned as a reputational shield, granting Epstein social access, credibility, and insulation from scrutiny at the very moment he was abusing minors behind closed doors.Beyond image laundering, the foundations also served practical purposes that raised serious red flags after Epstein's arrest. They were used to move large sums of money with minimal transparency, blur personal and institutional finances, and justify travel, meetings, and housing arrangements tied to Epstein's broader network. Survivors and investigators have argued that these charities were not merely incidental to Epstein's operation, but instrumental—providing cover for recruitment, control, and silence while discouraging institutions from asking hard questions about the source of his wealth or his behavior. Once examined closely, the charitable façade collapses, revealing that Epstein's philanthropy was less about public good and more about building protection, access, and plausible deniability for a long-running criminal enterprise.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Thursday - When Your Finances Fall Short, pt. 4 by Emmanuel Baptist Church, San Jose, CA

Ed McKnight has been working in personal finance for a fair few years and although he typically tries to be encouraging when giving advice, he does have some more brutal truths to tell. He joined Jack Tame to offer up the three brutally honest pieces of money advice that most Kiwis will need to hear. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Le Gabon souhaite renforcer ses liens économiques avec la Côte d'Ivoire. Après les secteurs du transport aérien et du transport routier, les investisseurs ivoiriens entendent participer à l'objectif d'autosuffisance alimentaire du pays voulu par les autorités de Libreville. Avec notre correspondant à Libreville, C'est une véritable offensive économique que la Côte d'Ivoire lance au Gabon et le timing n'a pas été choisi au hasard, Libreville ayant annoncé récemment une réforme en profondeur de son agriculture pour limiter l'importation massive de produits alimentaires. La Côte d'Ivoire entend en effet exporter son modèle agricole au Gabon, à commencer par la production de semences. « Par exemple, la qualité des semences produites qui sont à haut rendement permet de réduire les surfaces cultivées pour assurer le gain des petits producteurs, des agro-industriels, etc. », explique le professeur Da Costa Kouassi, chercheur principal au Centre national de recherche agronomique de Côte d'Ivoire. Au Gabon, les investisseurs ivoiriens se positionnent notamment dans la production de denrées alimentaires. Solange Amichia, directrice générale du Centre de promotion des investissements en Côte d'Ivoire : « Nous sommes venus présenter les opportunités d'investissement sur plusieurs projets. Ce sont des projets de plantations et d'usines intégrées pour la production de manioc, d'ignames, de bananes plantain, d'aliments pour animaux, mais également de l'aquaculture. Ce sont des projets qu'on fait en Côte d'Ivoire et qu'on peut répliquer ici au Gabon ». L'agriculture n'est pas le seul secteur qui intéresse les Ivoiriens. Au terme du forum, Ghislain Mouandza Mboma, directeur général de l'Agence gabonaise de promotion des investissements, s'est dit satisfait des engagements économiques de la partie ivoirienne : « En intentions d'investissements, nous ne sommes pas loin d'une enveloppe de 200 milliards de francs CFA. Il s'agit des secteurs de la cimenterie, de la production de poulets de chair ou de la construction d'hôtels haut de gamme : on a des intentions claires là-dessus. Maintenant, nous allons continuer le dialogue pour réussir à concrétiser cela. » Le Gabon et la Côte d'Ivoire construisent le modèle parfait pour la souveraineté économique de l'Afrique, estime Henri Claude Oyima, ancien ministre gabonais de l'Économie et des Finances. « Le partenariat entre la Côte d'Ivoire et le Gabon est un exemple de ce que le continent peut accomplir lorsqu'il choisit l'ambition plutôt que l'attentisme, la coopération plutôt que la dépendance et la transformation plutôt que l'exportation brute de richesses agricoles et minières », commente-t-il. La Côte d'Ivoire ne découvre pas le marché gabonais. Ses entreprises sont présentes dans le secteur bancaire, le transport aérien et la construction des routes.

Wednesday - When Your Finances Fall Short, pt. 3 by Emmanuel Baptist Church, San Jose, CA

This week, we're rolling out some of Gary's most iconic moments on Not Alone with a compilation of his most memorable conversations. We're starting with the story of how Gary and Valeria's age gap shaped their relationship from day one, how their mothers reacted, the moment Gary asked for Valeria's hand in marriage. Then, we shift into a raw and revealing conversation about infidelity, why men cheat, the role of emotional maturity, the importance of communication, and why working on yourself is essential to building a lasting relationship. Finally, we dive into marriage and money: power dynamics, childhood beliefs around wealth, business wins and losses, spending freedoms in marriage, and the decisions that shaped their future together.

In this episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow and John Hendrickson provide straight talk on Iowa's economic conditions, cutting through political messaging to focus on what the numbers actually show. With the latest Revenue Estimating Conference in the books, the hosts explain why Iowa's fiscal position remains strong—but why that strength should not be misinterpreted as a green light for higher spending or policy complacency.Chris and John walk through the distinction between economic performance and state revenue, noting that while Iowa continues to benefit from solid employment and stable growth, government revenues are shaped just as much by policy decisions and federal factors as by the private economy. They caution against conflating healthy reserves with long-term sustainability, emphasizing that today's surplus can quickly become tomorrow's shortfall if spending commitments grow faster than the economy.The conversation broadens to national economic conditions and federal policy risks, including uncertainty around interest rates, federal spending, and mandates that could shift costs to states. The hosts point to other states that treated temporary surpluses as permanent money—and are now scrambling to close gaps—as a warning Iowa lawmakers should take seriously.The episode concludes with a forward-looking discussion of what economic realism should look like heading into the next legislative session. Chris and John argue that honest budgeting, spending discipline, and skepticism of one-time money are essential if Iowa wants to preserve its economic advantages. Strong numbers, they conclude, are an opportunity to govern responsibly—not an excuse to avoid hard choices.

Understand that realignment isn't about grand gestures; it's about steady, intentional choices. Even the smallest adjustments can result in major change.Again, your next season doesn't have to wait for a calendar date; it can begin whenever and however you choose. So don't just aim to finish the year strong. Step into the next one grounded, aligned, and in forward motion.For Clarity: https://www.jacquettetimmons.com/1-1-coaching www.jacquettetimmons.comwww.jacquettetimmons.com/digital-productswww.instagram.com/jacquettemtimmonsBuyMeACoffee.com/JacquetteSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Most men don't need more information - they need fewer lies. The most common lie? "I'm fine." In this Friday Field Notes episode, Ryan breaks down why "fine" is how men drift, how standards quietly erode, and why most men wait until catastrophe forces them to take their life seriously. This isn't an emotional exercise. It's a logical, factual audit of your body, relationships, finances, mission, and integrity - with no stories, no excuses, and no rationalizations. Ryan challenges you to stop protecting your weak spots, identify where you're cutting corners, and draw one non-negotiable line in the sand that you enforce daily. You don't rise to your potential. You fall to what you tolerate. This episode will push you to: Take an honest inventory of your life Cut distractions, excuses, and self-deception Set one standard that changes everything Stop waiting for pain to force change Start today - not January 1st SHOW HIGHLIGHTS: 00:00 - The Lie of "I'm Fine" 01:55 - How Men Drift Without Realizing It 03:02 - Why You Must Audit Your Life 05:21 - Body, Marriage, Finances, Mission 07:01 - Where You're Lying to Yourself 09:02 - You Fall to What You Tolerate 10:41 - What Weakens You Is a Liability 11:23 - One Non-Negotiable Standard 12:13 - Discipline Doesn't Wait 13:14 - Stop Waiting for Catastrophe 15:23 - Audit Your Life Before It's Too Late 17:47 - Iron Council & Final Charge Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!
