I'm 100% in agreement with Bret Weinstein here. I'm 100% in agreement with Bret Weinstein here.

Not only do things not add up. What's is truly bizarre is to watch so many people of power and influence do 180 degree flips on dozens of prominent issues over the past six years without feeling any need to justify their change of opinion. No new facts are being offered on issues that affect millions or tens of millions of us and, further, the corporate media pretends that nothing interesting is happening. Weinstein:

I think we Americans have to have a conversation with ourself about not only how broken our system is and what it is resulting in us doing, but how does it actually work? What is it that is actually driving us to do what we do? And you know, we can see parts of it. We can see lobbying. It's the loophole in our system where the system is pay-for-play, that is used day in and day out by corporations to get us to do things that are bad for our health, bad for our long term financial well-being bad in every regard. But obviously our adversaries abroad will have noticed that we have a pay-for-play system, and if they aren't taking advantage of it, that would be surprising. I would like to know why they would have missed the opportunity.

So presumably they are, and that also applies to our allies. Unfortunately, that is to say, anytime somebody has an interest that is in conflict with the interest that we Americans actually have, they are in a position to nudge us in their direction, and we are undoubtedly being nudged. On the other hand, I don't think that can be the sum total of it. And I will tell you, I don't like saying any of this. I don't want to be doing this. The the reason that the Epstein phenomenon, whatever it was, is so important, is that it suggests a hidden power structure that was there for leverage. It is unfortunate that in the edit that we have been shown, we don't have conclusive evidence of who what they were after, or even how the leverage worked. All we can see is strong evidence that there was something logically it is implied that it was connected to intelligence services. Ours, likely Israel's, who knows who else? But the when you see your government, your president, functioning in ways that do not add up, it's like watching a planet behave oddly because of the gravity of some object you haven't found yet, right? There's the implication that there's something with power in this system that is undeclared. As far as we know, it's unnamed. And the central question is, what is it? How does it work? And how much effect is it having on what we do.
