I’ve beat around the entire bush about this story for a long time now, so on my way out, I decided to say it out loud.
“Russiagate” was about far more than making sure Donald Trump didn’t win in 2016.
It was also about making sure that the establishment’s buried, corrupt secrets of the twenty years prior stayed buried. Forever.
The Jeffrey Epstein…“hoax”?
This past December, every mainstream news outlet was ablaze with a new “leak”1 of Epstein materials featuring many prominent conservative figures, not the least of which including the former Trump Chief of Staff, Stephen K. Bannon.
According to the reporting at the time, Steve Bannon and Jeffrey Epstein were pictured together sometime between 2013 and 2017, specified as the scope of the release.
Another name that was pictured with Bannon, who many have raised an eyebrow about, was notorious scholar, Noam Chomsky, typically considered of the “opposing” political persuasion as Bannon.
Before Russiagate: 2013-2017
What may seem to be a random window of time on which the Democratic Party chose to fixate is truly the most intriguing part of the controlled release.
It was 2013 when the sitting Vice President’s son, Hunter Biden, entered into business with the “f***ing spy chief of China,” as he eloquently wrote in text messages released years ago now by .
It was also June of 2013 when journalist Glenn Greenwald, with former N.S.A., Booz Allen Hamilton, and C.I.A. contractor Edward Snowden, exposed the highly controversial (and borderline unconstitutional) N.S.A.’s PRISM mass surveillance program. Snowden subsequently fled to Moscow after a brief visit to Hong Kong with assistance from WikiLeaks.
In 2012, just before the work began on the exposé and WikiLeaks releases in February of 2013, a Russian academic at Cambridge published a research paper revealing backdoor access on military-grade silicon chips used by the U.S. military.2
Obama won the 2012 Presidential election, the first Presidential election conducted with Konnech’s AbVote and PollChief platforms both operational at the national scale, including in key battleground cities.
Harvard University then-Constitutional law professor Alan Dershowitz retired from the school in 2013.
Jeffrey Epstein and Harvard
Epstein, a longtime Harvard donor, is widely known at this point to have some sort of personal connections to basically every intelligence agency in — and connected vicariously to — the United States.
Few blue-collar working folks have the time to fully understand the role Harvard University plays on the global scale through their alumni, (often adjunct) faculty, donors, and extra-curricular engagement.
Harvard’s institutes, associated foundations, grant recipients, and the leadership thereof are networked with the most consequential organizations in the world. This gives Harvard a voice to the direction of actual humanity itself, but also eyes into the most sensitive financial information there is, globally.
Dershowitz photographed with Epstein in 2004
Among the release of photographs were pictures of Epstein with former Harvard Constitutional and criminal law professor Alan Dershowitz3, who — along with the other contemporary realignments in our story — retired from Harvard in 2013.
His retirement put Dershowitz in the driver’s seat of influencing the discourse around Constitutional civil liberties at the exact time that WikiLeaks, Greenwald, and Snowden stunned the world with documented proof of everyone’s darkest suspicions.
Constitutional law counsel for Epstein?
Dershowitz is on record as having advised Jeffrey Epstein at least through the time of a December 2, 20184 Axios report, running tandem with Dershowitz also having advised the Harvey Weinstein defense team on obtaining documents from The Weinstein Company, reported in May 20185.
On December 3, 2018, the very next day following Axios’ reporting of Dershowitz having advised Epstein, the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Oversight sent a letter to the Department of Justice’s Office of Professional Responsibility6.
Epstein knew the Biden’s laundry
Between June 30, 2011 and June 2, 2014, Kathryn Ruemmler was the White House Legal Counsel7. Ruemmler was among Epstein’s regular contacts between July 2014 and May 2019, according to the tranche of documents released by the House Oversight Committee in November of 20258.
Joe Biden was Vice President.
Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn Flynn took command of the Defense Intelligence Agency in July 2012, and simultaneously became commander of the Joint Functional Component Command for Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, and chair of the Military Intelligence Board.
The same year, Russian researchers published their “spychip” findings from Cambridge University9.
According to the New Yorker, Hunter Biden and partner Devon Archer first discussed going into business with Chinese businessman Jonathan Li in 201210.
Edward Snowden first attempted to contact Glenn Greenwald in late 2012.
In early 2013, Glenn Greenwald and Edward Snowden began collaborating on the N.S.A. data collection exposures.
On June 5, 2013, Edward Snowden and Glenn Greenwald released their work on the N.S.A.’s PRISM spying program with The Guardian U.S.
In June 2013, Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn became the first U.S. officer to be allowed inside the Russian military intelligence (GRU) headquarters in Moscow, where he arrived at the invitation of the GRU chief General Igor Sergun.
In June 2013, Hunter Biden’s partner, Devon Archer signed a memorandum of understanding with a Chinese counterpart to launch an investment effort together11.
September 4, 2013 — Patrick Ho (Hunter Biden associate) correspondence:
On November 1, 2013, Hunter Biden and Chinese investors agree to create Bohai Harvest RST Equity Investment Fund Management Co., Ltd. (BHR), an investment fund controlled by the Bank of China, to focus on mergers and acquisitions, and investment in and reforms of state-owned enterprise12.
On December 4, 2013, Vice President Biden traveled with Hunter Biden on Air Force 2 to China and met CEO of BHR, Jonathan Li13.
-
On December 5, 2013, Reuters announced a $3 billion deep water Ukrainian port project by a Chinese investor who was already working toward a waterway in Nicaragua to compete with the Panama Canal14.
On December 16, 2013, BHR Partners was registered in Shanghai, China (top of article).
On May 12, 2014, Hunter Biden was appointed to the Board of Directors of Burisma Holdings in Ukraine15.
In October of 2014, Hunter Biden’s business partner, Patrick Ho, was later cited in DOJ indictments as trying to secure a conduit with which to make sanctioned Iranian transactions.
In June of 2014, Kathryn Ruemmler left the White House. July of 2014 is where her publicly disclosed correspondence with Epstein picks up — for now.
The Trump Administration just recently announced the discovery of millions more Epstein documents.
RICO violations carry no statute of limitation, and would be classified from public knowledge if they were to occur with national security implications.
(Note for unfamiliar readers: A “statute of limitation” is a period of time that the government has to press charges against someone after a crime is committed. The government can not bring up old events outside of these time periods to hold against someone unless there are other qualifications met, like an ongoing, larger crime.)
On May 27, 2015, Israeli citizen Gal Luft (a name we won’t cover in-depth here, but you should learn more about) sent a string of emails to Chinese businessmen about securing deals for the sanctioned Iranians with “privacy,” cited in a much later DOJ indictment against Mr. Luft16.
Fast forward to the Trump 2016 campaign
Trump Campaign operative Carter Page was a C.I.A. informant from 2008 to 2013, aligning with our timeline here, yet the F.B.I. refused to mention this exculpatory fact of a “positive record” in their October 2016 FISA (secret surveillance) warrants against Page17.
Page, being a former intelligence informant in good standing with the Trump campaign, was also joined on the 2016 Campaign staff by former (outspoken Obama critic) Defense Intelligence Agency Director Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.
Flynn’s close friend and former commanding General, Gen. David H. Petraeus, left the battlefield with Flynn to serve in Washington from 2011 and 2013 for the Obama Administration.
Flynn stayed in the military lane. But Petraeus went to lead the C.I.A. before resigning in 2012 over allegedly sharing classified information with a biographer.
Flynn retained his security clearance until February of 2017, well after the beginning of “Russiagate.”
This brings the story to the heat of the Trump Campaign in July 2016, when Carter Page took a trip to Moscow.
Steve Bannon was Trump Campaign CEO beginning in August of 2016 and eventually served as the White House Chief Strategist for about 6 months of the first Trump Administration.
This was likely after Bannon was photographed with Jeffrey Epstein, who was at the time cozied up to the former Obama White House Legal Counsel, Kathryn Ruemmler.
Rolling Stone printed about Epstein and Bannon in 202118:
“[Epstein] was advising both Republicans and Democrats.
‘He would say things like “Trump’s people were here this morning. Hillary’s people were here for lunch,” a former Epstein associate tells Rolling Stone. Epstein “would claim he was impacting the campaign dramatically.”’”
Carter Page July 2016 Moscow speeches
Between July 7th and 8th, 2016, Carter Page delivered two speeches in Moscow.
Page was specifically questioned on a meeting with a former associate from his C.I.A. days in Moscow.
“Page said that, during his time in Moscow, he met with friends and associates he knew from when he lived in Russia, including Andrey Baranov, a former Gazprom employee who had become the head of investor relations at Rosneft, a Russian energy company. Page stated that he and Baranov talked about “immaterial non-public” information. Page believed he and Baranov discussed Rosneft president Igor Sechin, and he thought Baranov might have mentioned the possibility of a sale of a stake in Rosneft in passing. Page recalled mentioning his involvement in the Trump Campaign with Baranov, although he did not remember details of the conversation.19”

CEFC’s quiet Qatari funnel to Iran
CEFC’s Patrick Ho had been involved in arms deals to Qatar20, but CEFC itself had also started an investment fund there (controlled by the Qatar Investment Authority), highlighted in a March 30, 2016 ChinaDaily article21.
Ho was also accused but never indicted for seeking to help Iran evade sanctions as far back as 201422.
Rosneft sold stake to Qatar
According to sources at the time, a December 2016 Glencore and Qatar Investment Authority deal to purchase 19.5% stake in Russian oil giant Rosneft2324 took many months to materialize25.
But this flew in direct contrast to the companies and their executives behaving in a way that led press to suggest that the deal was rushed, hasty, and suspicious26. CNBC called the deal a “tightly-guarded secret.”27
The Centre for Eastern Studies said in the week following the Glencore announcement of the deal28:
“Based on the information revealed, it is unclear who and in what proportions has bought the shares. Glencore’s announcement that it has bought only 0.54% of the shares in Rosneft is contrary to information initially released by Igor Sechin – he suggested that each consortium member bought 50% of the block of shares. Furthermore, it has not been confirmed that Russian banks will take part in granting loans for the deal.”
All immediately looked to CEFC in 2017
On July 4, 2017, Rosneft announced their inking a memorandum with CEFC29, a signal that Rosneft wasn’t only supportive of the transaction, but an active part of the Iranian money funnel.
According to Reuters30, a later 2018 QHG Holding financial report31 explicitly detailed CEFC’s contribution to the Qatar Investment Authority began in December 2016, and ran through 2018 for a total of $225 million Euro.
Following Patrick Ho’s November 18, 2017 arrest in New York, and the March 2018 announcement of Ye Jianming’s investigation32, Glencore, QIA, and CEFC dissolved the CEFC deal, with Glencore picking up the tab and the stake in Rosneft33. This was announced on May 4, 2018.
Why CEFC matters to Epstein
Joe Biden was Obama’s man in charge of the “Asia Pivot” strategy in 2013 — a coordinated focus of the Obama Administration to turn its foreign policy focus to Asia and Eastern Europe34.
Ironically or not, this is when China first announced its “BRICS” economic think tank project, which was launched from Beijing’s academic hub of Tsinghua University.
China’s “Belt and Road”
Newly installed Chinese President Xi Jinping announced the “Belt and Road Initiative” from Kazakhstan in October of 2013. This is a pivotal point in time in reference to greater international affairs, but more importantly, to our Epstein scandal.
The Belt and Road Initiative brought together human, financial, and intelligence resources from Shanghai, Beijing, Hong Kong, Wuhan, the Greater Pearl River Delta region, Hangzhou (Zhejiang Province), and other major economic centers of China.
Maritime Silk Road Society
China enjoys an incredible amount of ocean shoreline, but its maritime projection is severely hampered by the barrier islands that essentially surround the entire nation.
One key NGO to China’s international economic efforts is called the Maritime Silk Road Society, based in Hong Kong35. This organization is the convergence of interests between CEFC’s Ye Jianming and another Chinese billionaire, Sun Wah Group’s Jonathan KS Choi.
As fate has it, Choi also happens to be an original financial spark behind an Michigan election company called Konnech36.
Konnech is part of a larger governmental apparatus with which one political party and its Chinese counterparts covertly weaponized the company’s products to exact political outcomes through elections37.
Chief among The Maritime Silk Road Society’s main objectives is their task and purpose to connect the Chinese Mainland with the Indian Ocean, Persian Gulf (Iran, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, U.A.E., etc.), and Africa.
FALSE: Trump sent Carter Page to Moscow
People who also talked to Trump sent Carter Page to Moscow for other reasons.
Edward Snowden went into U.S. Army Special Forces in 2004. Special Forces includes Army PSYOPS units. He was reportedly discharged for a leg injury.
Snowden then went to the C.I.A. for a number of years. From there he went to Dell. From there he went to Booz Allen Hamilton. From there he was an N.S.A. contractor.
The U.S. Military’s chief legitimate rival on the world stage since at least November 1963 has been the Central Intelligence Agency itself.
Writer’s Note: Hypothetically speaking, if the C.I.A. were to co-opt foreign citizens, even potentially convert double-agents, and those sources were to come to the Mainland United States, would that status as an “enemy combatant” give the U.S. Army a legal runway to covertly deploy domestically?
The only thing more powerful than Presidents is the United States Army
The ENTIRE U.S. Armed Forces also have their own massive intelligence agency: the Defense Intelligence Agency. Even broken down from there, each branch of the military has ITS own intelligence services and specialties.
Keep in mind that a public disclosure of insecure military chips happened by a Russian academic at a known U.K. intelligence megalith, Cambridge University, in 2012.
This did not happen in a vacuum.
Russiagate: A coverup of a coverup
Immediately on the heels of the silicon “backdoor” disclosure, Edward Snowden began contacting Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras, in late 2012.
Michael Hastings, the catalyst behind Army Generals being shuffled after Obama took office, began another series of groundbreaking reports that in hindsight may seem to ultimately gotten him killed in early 201338, however the accident occurred.
-
WikiLeaks and Chelsea (formerly Bradley) Manning (U.S. Army) “exposed” the U.S. Army’s Iraq and Afghanistan’s files repeatedly beginning in 2010.
Keep in mind especially here that the military relied heavily on C.I.A. intelligence for targeting intelligence and for formulating their own mission objectives.
Snowden, with help from friends and colleagues like Glenn Greenwald, WikiLeaks, and Michael Hastings exposed the N.S.A. and C.I.A. repeatedly beginning in 2012.
Snowden’s WikiLeaks help got him to Hong Kong and Moscow, safely.
U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, Director of D.I.A., visited Russian intelligence headquarters at the same time Snowden showed up.
The most damning Epstein photo releases for the 2016 Trump Campaign are largely from 2013-2017.
Epstein nearly certainly knew the Bidens’ dirt through 2014 in ALL Ukraine, China, AND RUSSIA, at least through White House Legal Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler.
Flynn left government/military service in 2014.
Before 2014, Michael Flynn’s brother, Charles, was 82nd Airborne Division's deputy commander for operations and assistant operations officer for readiness for United States Army Forces Command in Fort Bragg, NC. Bragg is also the home of Army PSYOPS 4th and 8th PSYOPS Groups. Charles Flynn commanded the 25th Infantry Division from 2014 to 2016, then was assigned as deputy commander of United States Army Pacific. General Charles Flynn eventually became a fulcrum of the Capitol’s law enforcement readiness/response on January 6, 2021.
-
Now-discredited British F.B.I./C.I.A. informant Christopher Steele filed his first report to the F.B.I. on July 5, 2016.
Steele worked at Cambridge with Svetlana Lokhova, a centerpiece of the allegations concerning Russia and Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn.
Trump Campaign operative Carter Page went on non-Campaign business to give two speeches in Moscow on July 7 and 8, 2016.
During this visit, Carter Page DID MEET with the HEAD OF INVESTOR RELATIONS of ROSNEFT, A RUSSIAN OIL GIANT, at the PRECISE TIME when Rosneft, Glencore, and Qatar Investment Authority were establishing investment funds together to do business together.
This is also when Patrick Ho stated he was looking for financial funnels to Iran, and also while doing business with Qatar already.
Epstein was hanging out with Steve Bannon, allegedly by photos, sometime between 2013 and 2017. Steve Bannon joined the Trump Campaign in August of 2016.
In September of 2016, 88 (former) military leaders endorsed candidate Trump over candidate Clinton39.
Donald Trump squeaked out a last-minute come-from-behind victory against all odds in the 2016 Presidential election — shockingly similar to the fashion in which Joe Biden won in 2020.
Once Donald Trump was sworn in as President, he officially knew exactly why Carter Page was sent to Moscow.
Because “we caught them all.”
On July 11, 2023, Al Jazeera reported the United States had charged U.S.-Israeli dual-citizen Gal Luft with being a Chinese agent. According to the indictment, Luft worked for Hunter Biden’s Chinese investment partners, CEFC40.
Everyone is both correct and entirely incorrect about almost everything at the same time.
It’s Israel, but it’s not the Jews.
It’s the CCP, but it’s not the Chinese.
It’s the Democrats, but it’s also the Republicans.
It’s the investors, but it’s not just the banks.
It’s corruption, but it’s corruption funneled into its own demise.
When the economy is corrupt, Congress is corrupt, the intelligence apparatus is corrupt, law enforcement is corrupt, judges are corrupt, and elections are corrupt...
Military is the only way to clean up that level of corruption.
Does this map of the 2013 corrupt establishment’s objectives make sense now?
How about now?
Pictured below (according to the New York Times41) is Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman, an outspoken Trump ally, and advocate for snuffing out extremist terrorism, specifically radical Islamic terrorism.
Historically, this terrorism has always been financed by the networks Epstein and Trump were both very close to.
