Support in the form of Paid Subscriptions to this anti-newsletter (cancel at any time) or one-time Coffee Donations go far with my growing family and I as we attempt to carve out a path separate from that which the System originally had in mind for us.
Now … on to the writing.
We do a lot of what passes for analysis in the Info War.
All of us.
I do it. My peers do it. People I don’t particularly like do it.
Each and every one of you does it, even if you don’t necessarily put your work out in an organized manner and behind a name attached to the writing or the video commentary.
And yet, simply by the act of engaging in the Info War … hell, simply by knowing there IS one, you are, WE are all on some level engaged in the act of attempted analysis.
That said, one of the paradoxical contradictions that is not a contradiction in this battlespace is the attempt to make sense out of, well, anything at all within a war that is on some level based on the recognition that we’ve been sold lies since we were born. Since before, if you want to get Biblical about it.
We are each of us and all of us, then, paradoxes. And likely proud of it.
No doubt, we’ve each gotten MANY things wrong when it comes to forwarding public or private analysis, which is to say, GUESSING which way the war is going to go on both the micro and the macro, on the structural and thematic as well as the temporal, with the latter perhaps most infamous in the self-named and proclaimed Truth Community.
After all, how many of us papered over the deep and seemingly unending darkness that tends to follow initial awakening with the requisite whiplash that sometimes takes on the tenor of a crusade of the light, and did so while forwarding—or at least following others who forwarded—very specific predictions either for or against this crusade, this mission we each took on as individuals, and that we joined together to push forward as a decentralized collective?
Whether you’re talking about mass arrests, mass disclosure—I would argue we HAVE, at the very least experienced a decade of EXPOSURE, for which I will forever be thankful—and perhaps most of all, mass awakening, no doubt we’ve privately and collectively built bubbles of understanding over time that—however true at the core—often come up wanting when met with the seemingly unyielding and yet, ironic falsity of the Collective Mind we are ostensibly trying to wake, as we were awoken.
A Mind from which we are at once separated, perhaps permanently, and yet, of which we are inextricably linked.
Whether you’re talking about Crimes Against Humanity or Crimes Against Children, Election Fraud or Epstein, the Plan to Save the World or the Plan to Enslave it (or else, to KEEP it enslaved,) we have erred plenty.
And yet, here we are. Each of us and all of us. Still digging. Still discerning. Still spreading, like a so-called virus of the mind, of the heart and most importantly, of the soul.
Like a dream of waking that hasn’t just infected, but cleansed each mind that it—that we, rather—have managed to get our hooks in. We, who seek the truth. We, who do not pretend to hold it.
And so, with that stream of consciousness preamble out of the way, I suppose I wanted to open with the perhaps-understated admission that doubles as a recognition that, well, NONE of us knows what’s GOING to happen from here, or when it’s going to happen, just like none of us knows what HAS happened. Not with any real certainty.
Which is why, dear readers, I have ever and always RE-focused a mind prone to wandering on the thing I know best, and on the thing I believe all wars—both within the mind and without it, against the heart and for it—are ultimately built on and of.
Stories.
And sometimes, as you’ve likely glimpsed throughout my writing and my commentary, I would argue that, in the midst of all the intrigue and addicting clandestine excitement and even tension—a requirement for only the BEST of stories—the brightest signal and the most steady often comes between the beats.
That one dropped on June 28, and, as you’re no doubt aware, it’s far from the only one to hit the cycle in recent weeks. What’s more, said journalist was far from a run-of-the-mill staff writer. He was involved in a somewhat-infamous smear campaign against former Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore, and the rabbit hole goes even deeper than that, as said campaign was directly funded by LinkedIn founder—and the somewhat infamous, to this community—Reid Hoffman.
And who could forget not just the Texas Flood tragedy, but more so, all of the strange, dark and mysterious rabbit holes it opened in the minds of those willing to go there, with the ensuing digs into the history of the region’s summer camps for the children of elites somehow overshadowing the actual events on the ground, and even going a long way toward supplanting the memetic narrative of cloud seeding and weather manipulation that came on the back of it.
Obviously, these narratives and many more prepped the Collective Mind for the blitzkrieg and MOAB tied into one that is the Epstein Deployment … or counter, depending on how you’re looking at it.
And no doubt you’re aware, now that the narrative has had some time to settle, how completely—almost purposefully—it clogged the mass psychological battlespace during one of the greatest cascades of ‘actual’ policy wins of the Trump era, from border security and peace deals to the codification of rails to the very decentralized financial future some of us have been talking about for years.
And yet, the Epstein Narrative was not the ONLY one to flood the zone over the course of the last week.
No. Another story as ubiquitous in this community as it is inverted in the Normie Layers returned alongside it, with the Epstein Narrative warring for psychological real estate with the story that kicked off a war made of them … that being Russiagate, Spygate or FISAgate, depending on your persuasion.
Say … where have we heard this sort of thing before?
Oh, and that’s not the only movie comm.
Check out what Trump Truth’d out just last night:
So, are the dueling Scandals a bug of the patriot plan … or the core feature?
And yet, didn’t Trump—at least publicly—seem extremely annoyed by the one narrative, and bullish on the other?
Well, at the risk of taking him at face value for a change, why would that be?
More importantly, why does the Media Industrial Complex—every layer of it—want to talk about the one and not the other?
From the MSM:
To the nu, pseudo-intellectual tech sphere:
And from the Con Inc. Doom Brigade:
To the YouTube Culture War Contingent:
We have seen a rare convergence wherein ALL layers of the Media Industrial Complex were either activated or baited—is there a difference?—into breathless and sensational bloviation tying Trump to the most toxic narrative in the American Minscape over the last decade.
And when you see convergence, you must ask, cui bono?
Ask that, and then Trump’s viral response to the ceaseless rumor mongering makes a bit more sense in context.
And that, as you know is but a small taste of the Truth Social MOAB Trump unleashed to kick off the week.
And so, with that initial post, are we to believe Trump was and is just faking it, and delighting in how easily the establishment fell into the trap of now boldly boosting one of the very keystones that could undue the system that made them, or—at the rare risk of taking Donald Trump literally, for a change—is he angry that a story has been--at least at times--turned against those it was originally meant to prod awake?
Well, he seemed to double down on that particular reading a few days later.
And then, like clockwork, the Media Industrial Complex gears start turning … or rather, reveal that they have been turning for some time, with the pre-seeding of a coming Narrative Deployment by the Wall Street Journal that Trump then countered in turn.
As for this initially-uncomfortable, but perhaps necessary reading of the scenario—that is, Trump speaking more literally than he is usually wont to do—let’s play with it a bit.
So, we must ask, could it be simultaneously true that Epstein represents a keystone to exposing not just elite sex trafficking rings, but the ubiquity with which western intel agencies weaponized such systems to gain disproportionate control over the very system they were ostensibly meant to serve, while ALSO representing a poison pill of sorts?
After all—and contrary to popular consensus belief around these parts—this isn’t necessarily a sudden pivot by Trump, though it is a dramatic one.
As pointed out to me by
, take a look at this fascinating extended cut from a 2024 campaign interview, in which Trump alludes to the “phony stuff” contained within the Epstein Narrative a full year before the battle was joined in full.So … let’s ask some questions. Some uncomfortable questions. Some necessary questions. And most of all, some questions that get us closer to the light, which is to say, the truth, by first considering the nature of the lies we’ve been told, on all fronts.
Why did Kash Patel reference peoples’ emotions—particularly in the Truth Community—when it came to the coming firestorm around the Epstein files during a recent appearance on the biggest podcast in the world?
How about his follow-up in the midst of the controversy storm, wherein he said, “the conspiracy theories just aren’t true,” after spending the better part of four years appearing on the most notorious Q-themed podcasts on the internet?
Why did Dan Bongino agree to remain on the team after Trump spoke with him?
And, again, why are all of the worst people calling for the release of the ‘files,’ while the best ones are doing the opposite?
So ... is the Trumpian stance on Epstein the genuine article, or an example of appearing weak when strong?
If we have both the signal setter AND the counter-signal ostensibly saying the same thing—the former that Epstein should not be the focus right now and the latter that it SHOULD, and so, admitting that it should not—is this not one of the most powerful convergences we've yet seen in the Info War?
Assuming both Narratives dominating the zeitgeist have SOME truth to them—if not ALL truth—which is easier for public delivery?
Does the enemy fear the Satanic label … or the Treason one?
Which do they think will map more cleanly onto the Collective American Mind, thus giving Trump the mandate to do with it what he will?
What we want him to.
What we demand, which just might look an awful lot like Justice.
To wit, courtesy of our friend TheStormHasArrived17, we were reminded of another bit of Info War infamy this week … and what it signals.
So, how are we to take the fact that Trump is re-focusing the Collective American Mind on the Russiagate Narrative the same week the entirety of the media hellscape goes all-in on Epstein?
Why is James Comey worried about Russiagate … and not flight logs, contrary to the beliefs many in this community—and I don’t hold myself apart—have advanced over the last 8 years?
The enemy doesn't fear 'the list,' in my estimation, which tells us exactly what they do fear.
Accountability.
And yet, I don’t believe it’s all THAT clean and simple. After all, we've been at this long enough to know that theories of 5GW Game Theory, Pincer Moves and Narrative Traps are far from Copium.
So, why do they want to talk about the narrative that could ostensibly bring down the whole diseased, corrupt temple of a sudden ... and not the one that Trump SAYS will bring it down?
Why do they want to talk about one conspiracy, and not the one that leads to all the rest, as John Solomon has been reporting, and that is seeing the sort of REAL/actual-based movement this community was essentially built on the hope for?
To wit, just a few days after the Truth Community and the American Mindscape at large essentially tore themselves to cognitive shreds attempting to deal with the sort of Narrative Whiplash only Trump (and his unwitting and captured in thrall media empire) can provoke, Soloman came back with some signal as to where the story is going … which just so happens to be where it started.
“Grand Conspiracy” isn’t going to be some hashtag meant to alternatively admonish or boost the Truth Community and us Anons … it’s going to be the legally codified label for the story of Disclosure, writ large across the American Mindscape and the political and legal, and yes, certainly the clandestine battlespace at once.
And if reports and allusions weren’t enough, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard codified the whole thing to end one week, and kick off the next.
Treason. Conspiracy.
Two words that are being transformed back into their original usage, and power, both representing codifications of truth, free from the layered obfuscation of US intel, which have been demonizing both terms since 1963.
And all while Trump responded to—all of it?—with a Panican comm from the White House.
And what’s absolutely delicious about this particular run of disclosure—on both the Epstein narrative and Russiagate—is the fact that Trump gets to forward it with the full public (and bipartisan) mandate to do so, granting him narrative shielding in earnest, and in perpetuity, since the darkest path in the Info War represents the one most in need of travel.
And he absolutely saw it coming, unless you think he and his team were ready for this immediate acceleration disguised as a pivot? One that could ostensibly steer then straight into doom, or into the path of the narrative torpedo.
Say … doesn’t that remind you of a drop?
My friend
put this narrative mastery quite well in his latest:“Donald Trump’s instigation and then navigation of the “Epstein Files” Hoax have been masterful. The high-volume public conversation has allowed Trump and MAGA to pre-weather the storm. In the pre-Trump years, attempts to take down politicians would receive widespread buy-in from the public, assuming some part of the story had to be true.
It’s safe to assume the Trump side knew the article was coming at some point prior to the DOJ/FBI unsigned memo. They released it on a Sunday night, on a holiday weekend, and the story resulted in a Regime-led battle online in an attempt to cleave Trump from his MAGA base through psychological warfare. The Trump side has waged a 12-day war on the Trump-Epstein series and won.”
Amen.
Some of you—hopefully all of you, after reading this—have read ‘The Master’ series I first started in 2022, in which I endeavored not just to dub Trump a master of Narrative Warfare, but to prove it chapter after chapter, technique after technique, deployment after deployment.
In one of my personal favorite entries, I laid out my favorite technique in Trump’s arsenal, which is more a marker of his overall fighting philosophy, and from where I’m sitting, that reading maps onto his navigation of the Epstein Narrative more perfectly than any other.
“Trump often resembles a counter striker. In fact, he has referred to himself as such on many occasions.
Contrary to how those not well-versed on the particulars of combat sports and the ‘sweet science’ perceive counter striking, the technique and style is not reactive; in fact, it’s quite the opposite, as the most skilled counter strikers first set patterns for their enemies to track and react to before then breaking that pattern in order to deliver a devastating—and often fight-finishing—blow.
Put another way, while an initial view of a counter-strike knockout may appear as if the winning fighter has successfully reacted to his opponent’s move, or that he has ‘moved second rather than first,’ the opposite is actually the case, providing a fascinating mirror to the manner in which the ‘Infinite Side’ in Fifth-Generation Warfare tends to operate.
In the same way that a skilled counter-striker will deploy feints, jabs and ‘simple’ kinetic techniques in the first few rounds or first few exchanges of a fight with either a defensive or aggressive opponent before gauging the reactions to those feints and jabs, so too will the Infinite Side in Fifth-Generation Warfare populate the psychological or informational environment with deployments and storylines that—whether true, false or some mix of the two—are designed to present tantalizing-seeming opportunities for attack.
You often see myself and others in this community referring to Trump’s Narrative Deployments as ‘bait’ for a reason: while the enemy side ‘reacting’ to the bait believes they are the ones initiating a move and thus, seizing the initiative and therefore advantage in the Information War, they often realize with the benefit of hindsight that their own move was successfully provoked, and therefore measured, accounted for and even desired by their most tactical, technical and discerning opponent.
And that is NOT a position you want to be in, either in the realm of Fifth-Gen Warfare or kinetic conflict. It is an exposed position and therefore a vulnerable one.
This is why counter strikers are widely seen as the most tactical, technical and ultimately effective fighters in boxing, kickboxing and even MMA, and tend to reflect the keenest minds among the fight community, and thus tend to make up some of the most successful in the history of combat sports.
You see, counter strikers are never using offense OR defense, but rather both at once, simultaneously, putting their opponents at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to reacting to sudden changes on the game board and complexion of the contest.”
On a larger scale, I’ve been talking about Narrative Convergence for years. Well, in this Russiagate deployment alone, we’re getting everything from 2016 election interference to 2020 and everything in between, which all adds up to, well, “a broader, long-running political operation,” as Solomon imparted when he front-ran it.
What’s more, the movie has ALWAYS needed a central villain, and it’s always had one, now primed and seasoned for public consumption.
Bright Brief - A Series of Shatterings
Leaving aside the fact that I think Stephen King is an absolute creeper … I will admit that, when I’m able to separate his Twitter profile, public political statements and undoubtedly disturbed psyche from his artistic contributions to American fiction, I admire his creative approach.
Certainly Hillary Clinton represents a cypher unto herself, one who presented the perfect foil to Trump, and one just arrogant and, more to the point, guilty enough to fall into every trap going
And would you look at that?
Just after Trump dropped his second narrative bunker buster on the Epstein Op, Bannon, Solomon and the aptly-named ‘War Room’ crew brought her right back into the eye of the narrative storm, and the actual one.
What’s more … she’s not alone.
The door of all doors has been opened, my friends, and Barack Obama has always been THE prime name to take down, since he and his administration mark the retroactive and bicameral thread, one that goes both forward and backward in time, tying all of the crimes visited upon the Trump deployment and the American people since 2015 to everything done beforehand.
Which is why, I’ll say quite confidently, in the midst of an engineered Narrative Storm, from where I'm sitting, SOMEONE—or a great many someones—have fallen into the Trump Quicksand this month, and it’s not just the WSJ and the Media Industrial Complex, but also the entirety of the Con Inc, fake MAGAfluencer sphere.
And Trump is essentially telling you as much, as the dust is far from settled.
To wit, weren’t we told that lawsuits were very effective?
In any event, it should be fun to watch the waves come in, and to see what they leave stuck fast and drowned when they recede.
Unless, of course, you believe that the Con Inc. Doom Brigade who went all in on the DeSantis Op in the fall of 2022, said Trump declared his candidacy for 2024 “too early,” and was threatening “unity” on the “right” suddenly have good intentions when it comes to alternatively decrying Trump’s handling of the Epstein narrative while subsequently taking credit for moving the administration off of its publicly-stated position based on rumors and whispers, only to be summarily rejected by Trump himself, ALL while attempting to grab onto the Russiagate hoax at the same time.
To wit, Trump’s clear references to Psyops, hoaxes and false narratives recalls General Michael Flynn infamously referring to the Q drops in a similar manner two years ago, which prompted what remains my most-shared writing in these digital pages.
(Yes, as it turns out, despite being labelled as ‘anti-Q’ by a very small number of people with even smaller brains, long-time readers know I have been following the drops since 2017, and writing about them in earnest since I launched this publication. But I digress …)
In the aforementioned case, I could both take Flynn literally and symbolically, and I can apply the same framing to Trump’s framing of the Epstein Narrative. A PsyOp, indeed, but that doesn’t mean it was the other side who deployed it. At least, not the other side alone.
After all, Epstein represents the Darkest Path in the Info War, even if he’s more useful as a cypher than as an actual.
In fact, even a baseline, actual-based reading of Epstein runs in parallel with the 5GW of it all, as the very existence of what all parties know to have been a blackmail ring wielded by intel assets against elites is itself a psychological-informational operation … as is the weaponization of the story about that operation, by both sides with opposite ends.
And yet, we MUST also consider Trump’s intent in a Bicameral manner, as, admittedly, that’s where Bicameral thinking gets difficult, but doubly important.
So, is it at least possible the enemy attempted to saddle Trump with a poison pill of a narrative—and before this month with the WSJ deployment, but rather from the start?—one lacking in the sort of substance this community has long assumed, and proven, at least to our own satisfaction?
And has the real scandal been significanly larger (statistically,) and significantly less covered by a media apparatus obsessed with the (admittedly) clandestine, sordid and symbolic cypher that is the Epstein Saga when 300k missing migrant children just doesn’t cut it?
What’s that saying about tragedies and statistics?
Either way, Narrative Shielding abounds in the current chapter of the Info War, and it goes both ways.
By amplifying a sensational and “sordid” storyline focused on elites, and not an industry, the enemy sacrifices a pawn, but keeps the power structure intact, one Trump has been dismantling on an Actual level for years, and which entered Warp Speed in earnest as soon as he resumed public office, which might lend credence to the idea that he’s not being dismissive of crimes against children by signal boosting his work on the border, against cartels and against the globalist swamp, but that the Epstein narrative is the one that is, by keeping what is a MASSIVE and ancient practice relegated to the relative micro of contained psychopathy and elite debauchery, no matter how sensational the story.
Perhaps ‘the temple’ was actually far larger and more systemic, more ubiquitous among us than we believed. Than we ever wanted to believe. And perhaps that’s at least PART of the point Trump and team are making, here.
After all, Trump using the terminology, “SORDID, but boring” in response to the Epstein Saga is signal unto itself.
And my friend
thought it was noteworthy, as well …Thus, in keeping with this reading of the narrative, he could be suggesting that, while partly true, the Epstein Op and similar honeypots are mechanistic, but not causal. Meaning, we’ve been paying attention to the gilded edges of the operation, and not its core animating engine.
Put another way, perhaps we’ve focused on Epstein, temples and the darkest path as the WHY … when it is merely one in a long line of very dark and deranged HOWs.
After all, what is the role of empire? What is its mission?
Control.
Alternatively, if that requires a few too many leaps, is it possible the narrative has simply been weaponized, and whose tangled web has blurred the line between truth, fiction, accusation and implication to such a degree that the untangling—at least in the Collective Mind—is currently seen by patriots as largely impossible?
As in, has the American hivemind been so programmed through a mix of real and fake conspiracy regarding Epstein and Little Saint James, Clintons and Gates and Trumps alike, that to untangle the vast, interconnected and weaponized (by both sides) web of corruption and subversion to separate targets and victims from clients and perpetrators would be a fool’s errand, and one whose best-case scenario endgame will still come on the back of the actual RICO that undoes the whole diseased, corrupt temple, and brings it down anyway—the one most clearly and exhaustively illuminated by the Russiagate Disclosure Op?
In this reading, Trump’s claims that the Epstein list is as fake as the Russia Collusion hoax could draw a strange, but signal-soaked mirror to the latter scenario. After all, as I argued last week, I have long believed that Russia Collusion, in a manner of speaking, was real, and that it was a good thing.
Axis & Allies
Author’s Note: If you get anything out of this writing and appreciate the time and effort it takes to put it all together while juggling a day job with a glorious—and gloriously chaotic—infant, do consider supporting the work I do in the form of Paid Subscriptions
And yet, doesn’t that narrative represent the exact sort of opportunity the Deep State attempted to turn around on Trump and the Sovereign Alliance, by taking a golden kernel of truth that could undo them and layering over it with so much narrative obfuscation that to even attempt to untangle it directly would simply have made Trump look like every bit the Putin stooge they claimed he was?
If you apply the same framing to the Epstein Narrative, which the enemy has had a LONG time to prepare for, might it be that the theories many in this community have advanced regarding it are true on the macro, while being false, or at least incomplete on the micro?
And isn’t that the exact sort of narrative ground the enemy could use to introduce just enough doubt wherein the presentation of ‘A’ list with Trump’s name on it—and other patriots—could both be ‘real’ and entirely fake, given that Epstein and assets like him specialized in the hunting and capture of elites, and so, might have kept a log of them?
Are we to believe that the DOJ and intel agencies that we know were weaponized against Donald Trump and the MAGA movement we’re all a part of 10 years ago have not introduced—in whole or in part—traps within the Epstein narrative, making it radioactive to all who touch it?
Is it possible that the true players involved in such … activities are being taken down, but not in the way they imagined, forcing the enemy to now expend serious narrative ammunition and provoke a major softening in the mass psychological battlespace where it concerns the role intel assets and government officials of the past and present have played in such lecherous and satanic subterfuge?
As my friend
pointed out during the week, is it a coincidence that the very DOJ ‘stalwarts’ who’d been assigned to handle the Epstein and Maxwell cases (not to mention Diddy for the Cognitive Cypher Trifecta) include the literal children of the one who kicked off the subversive war against Trump—and by extension, the People—a decade ago?WHO ultimately did the tangling?
Trump knows. Trump always knows.
And what’s that other old saying?
It’s the cover-up that gets you, and I think the Collective American Mind is going to get a massive and dramatic Master’s Course on that as the Russiagate threads unravel for them in the same way they did for us a full decade ago.
The Master - Part 1
The Master explores Donald Trump’s mastery of Narrative Warfare, his Narrative Fighting Style and his importance to the Sovereign Alliance in this Fifth-Generation War against the Globalist Deep State.
So, is Trump so hell bent on expelling illegal migrants from the United States because they’re interfering with our economy, or is it because they are—wittingly or unwittingly—a part of the silk road dyed red with the blood of children, a crime so massive and so commoditized that the American people can seemingly ONLY engage with it in the realm of theory, and connected to specific names … a bug in the human code—and one of the core reasons I focus on narrative above all else—that could easily be turned around on the truth, and used against it?
Think about it. If the ‘Epstein List’ came out with Donald Trump’s name listed right between Bill Clinton and Bill Gates, would any in the normie layers bat an eye, initially, and secondly, attempt any of the direct path digging that would easily parse the difference between hunter and hunted, target and accomplice … angel and demon?
That is, assuming ANY of what we’re shown on the back of an ‘accountability’ campaign can be taken at face value in an age in which the chronically online can’t distinguish between real and fake in any event.
That’s a LOT of hypothetical questions, but then, that’s how we build cognitive frameworks in the Info War. That’s how we separate the War of Stories from the Shadow War. That’s how we guard ourselves from the subversion of the enemy.
A brand is a mark, and a brand sticks. And make no mistake, Epstein is a brand, and the machine is entirely willing to mark Trump with it, however nonsensical and even inverted the connection point is—even if it means putting a few of their damaged and (narratively) dead former stalwarts out to pasture along with him, since it seems clear he—and we—represent a true existential threat to their way of life.
What’s more, it not only adds more of a logical—not just economic—basis to the System’s breathless and even emotionally-charged defense of open borders, but adds much darker layering to it, another reason why the opposite game doesn’t always give you the answer, but usually points your cognitive compass toward the right horizon.
“An ancient practice,” indeed.
And of course, none of this is to mention yet another possibility, and that is that the role of Jeffrey Epstein in the sort of rings this community has been projecting and analyzing for the better part of a decade has been amplified to such a degree that, in so doing, we have unknowingly papered over much more relevant operations with much more exhaustive implications.
So, let’s apply a too-narrow summary to a truly exhaustive list of possible mappings of the current Narrative Storm, and then turn our attention to the path we take from here.
A Tricameral Reading of the Epstein Storm:
Scenario 1 = Traps Set, Bait Taken, Full Informational Control through Engagement.
This scenario posits that Trump isn’t just unconcerned with the Epstein Narrative, but is pretending to be enraged by it specifically to heighten its virility in the War of Stories, since he knows where the coming disclosures are going to visit the most reputational damage, and conversely, the most retroactive absolution.
Scenario 2 = Total Inversion, Poison Pills and Recalibration.
This scenario posits that the Epstein Op has been—in whole or in part—an arrow in the enemy’s quiver for a decade, not because there is any underlying truth to claims of Trump’s depravity, but rather because the enemy needed to invent a highly complex web of intrique to suggest there could be, while sacrificing a few of their own along the way, all the better to sell it.
Scenario 3 = Cognitive Cyphers to Truth …
This scenario—my personal reading—posits that, while there is substantial and significant truth within the Epstein Narrative, that Narrative has been tainted, weaponized and used to obscure the full scope of the enemy’s operations. That said, in this reading, Epstein isn’t important on an Actual basis, but on a Narrative one, as he represented a cognitive cypher to awakening for many as to the true depths of the enemy’s evil. And yet, he’s merely the symptom of a much larger problem, and one the enemy is now attempting to hide behind. Look there, NOT here.
Come to think of it, all three feature mass engagement and the same cypher to the same macro—and that Macro is best exemplified by Overton’s Goalpost, a cognitive cypher of my own I developed in 2023 in order to map enemy narrative retreat—which is a win, in my book.
Overton's Goalpost
We’ve entered a new phase in the Info War, which is to say, we’ve entered a new phase in the Mind War.
In the end, even for the most ‘control’-focused anons, was it ever going to be as simple as deploying a list of names for easy public consumption?
In other words, is it possible we DO have everything there is on the op, and that it DOES represent a doorway to others, but that the true signal—and the true march to justice—is coming through a more circuitous, but much more stable and exhaustive path that ultimately ends with the same evil being torn out root and stem, or brought down like the very temple it resides in?
Again, the aforementioned Solomon told us accountability was coming, then doubled down on it to kick off the week, brushing up against RICO and using the legal term, ‘conspiracy,’ while recalling the START of the Shadow War, which also happened to mark the start of the War of Stories.
What’s more, he’s echoing Trump’s now-infamous statements on the matter, which didn’t just shift the focus—in a manner of speaking—from Epstein to the FIRST Scandal, but laid out those that followed it like a plot organizer, which is indeed Bicameral.
“There is an enormous opportunity for those of us who’ve been calling for accountability to see a path to it for the first time,” Solomon said. “A legitimate path. Not smoke, not mirrors. A legitimate path to accountability.”
Accountability.
A word DNI Gabbard used liberally in her own deployment, and one seen as ‘officially’ coming from the admin, meaning … the operation.
Oh … and she said another word, too.
That’s right.
“A years-long coup.”
That’s the messaging coming out of the sitting Director of National Intelligence, not a Truther Account. Not an Epoch Times journalist circa 2017, though everyone who was on signal for this the entire time—including ALL of you lot, I expect—deserve all of the recognition you’ll never get, and more so, the satisfaction not of having been right, but in potentially witnessing the implications of having been right writ large across the American—the global—battlespace.
What’s more, Gabbard laid out what the Steele Dossier really was, at the end of the day. And no, I’m not talking about a coup, a grand conspiracy or even treason in this context.
I’m talking about what the dossier, what the entire hoax actually was.
A NARRATIVE.
A STORY.
And acknowledging this is the admin’s way of codifying the central message of this publication, and of my entire goal in the Info War … namely, to impress upon whatever tiny portion of the Collective Mind I can that the STORY is the key … and that the enemy has understood this far longer than we have.
It all STARTS with narrative, and when Narrative is used effectively, Actuals follow.
Russiagate, Spygate and FISAgate don't mark the start of the crime, then. They mark the start of the story.
In focusing therein, patriots are acknowledging that Narrative Warfare has always been the key to the enemy's power.
In other words, as I have been arguing for years, ALL wars are the result of lost information wars.
To wit, as she becomes the latest cognitive cypher to double down on the idea that the list is far from done, does Ghislaine Maxwell represent the final in a long series of poison pills left by the Deep State in order to reverse the very narrative that could undo them into the one that could save them? Or are we watching shadows dance against the cavern wall in the light of the patriots’ making?
Who are the REAL conspirators? What was the REAL conspiracy?
Who is the Invisible Enemy?
The Invisible Enemy
So, how do we sum up the events of the last few weeks in an uncommonly—for me—succinct manner, before getting to the fun stuff?
It’s all connected, and only some have had the eyes to see it, the minds to discern it and the hearts to stay in the fight despite the weight of having made the choice to know.
From Ukraine to Little Saint James, Russia to Benghazi and every single scandal in between, it’s all coming back around. And if the story is told in order, from the start, and on multiple levels at once … well, my friends, that represents the sort of mass psychological mapping human beings were created with quite the penchant for.
The story is coming back around to the start, and because it is, they know it’s a genie they can’t put back in the bottle. Not this time. Not ever again.
NOW does the desperation to ignore the more banal, rote, talked to death electioneering and Manchurian candidate conspiracy take on a little added color—and subterfuge—in light of the attempt by all players in the media industrial complex to weaponize the most bombastic, dramatic and (admittedly) addicting conspiracy about elites, islands and intel rackets?
If the Epstein Conspiracy as the Truth Community understands it is true … why now?
If it’s false, wholly or in part … why now?
Why does the enemy no longer fear to discuss it? Why DO they fear to discuss the story Trump has been weaponizing against them since shortly after he came down that golden escalator all those years ago?
“They spied on my campaign.”
“We caught them all.”
The beginning, and the end, told shortly thereafter.
Both Epstein and Russiagate can be true, then, in whatever way you want to spin that, and yet, it is becoming exceedingly clear that, in the realm of the real, the enemy has SOME level of hope in engaging in a Narrative War about one, but not the other, which means they fear that RICO brings the house down.
So, two things can be true simultaneously:
That Epstein was the biggest red pill ever deposited into the Collective Mind ... and that Trump is currently focusing said mind on the original story that kicked off the Trump v. Deep State arc in the first place.
From where I’m sitting, the announcement of an active investigation INTO the progenitors of the Russia Hoax is massive signal as to the underlying war, the fact that we're winning it, and the fact that accountability is coming, even if it's impossible for us to suss out when and how.
And yet, it's the TIMING of the announcement of these investigations that encourages me most.
The Russia Collusion hoax very literally kicked off what we now colloquially refer to as the Info War in this audience. This was before the Q drops, and long before fifth-generation warfare was common parlance in this community.
Hell, it was the narrative deployment that essentially created this community.
What's more, the fact that the timing of the investigation OF the investigators should not and cannot be separated from the timing of the Epstein Narrative and international blackmail rings resurfacing, specifically with regards to the DOJ and intel agencies' respective handling of said cases.
When Trump and his compatriots tell people to stop looking behind Door #3, then, followed by the Russiagate announcement, are they really trying to distract, or focus?
So, who watches the watchmen?
Turns out, someone always was, and, again, that someone has been telling us for the better part of a decade that, again, he "caught them all."
As I said in one of my most popular features ever ...
"For every instance in which that name—those seven letters—are called up in a headline across the War of Stories battlescape, the truth continues to leak … until it gushes.
From the naming of the clients to the resurfacing lawsuits against central banks orbiting the whole clandestine, demonic operation, the depths of Epstein’s depravity seem only to be exceeded by the ubiquity with which the empire he worked for has infiltrated every aspect of the System of Systems we are destined to tear down, one brick at a time. One revelation.
And whether Epstein goes by that name in the central narrative, or by Diddy, or Nygard or Podesta or any of the seismic names to come, the dark names continue to resurface in staggered opposition to the bright ones that stand in opposition to them.
And so, whether you’re talking about the dark names or the bright ones, only one side on the game board is happy to see them occupying the headlines they are.”
And to that I hold, despite the seeming contradictions on display, which might clue you in as to just how desperate the enemy is, given the mass psychological ground they have ceded to this point.
To bring the temple down, in other words, you need to start with the pillars, with the foundation, rather than aiming for the altar and the men in robes behind it.
In the end, if Epstein and all the blood, darkness and depravity in this Narrative Temple represent the core belief structure and the animating engine of the systemic evil we have toiled against for so long—and that Trump and patriots ostensibly have for longer, with Putin, Xi, MBS and other members of the Sovereign Alliance in tow—then the Russia Collusion hoax, election interference and the weaponization of the US Administrative State and Legislature alike represent the mechanisms and the power projection of that dark priesthood, and it’s clear which the side of good is attempting to attack first.
We get ONE chance at taking back this nation and this world from the dark powers that have turned it into their own image. And, as we’ve been told, it must be done right. It must be done according to the rule of law. And it must be both expansive and exhaustive.
Epstein and his island in the Caribbean represent a cognitive keystone to awakening for many—and certainly did for me—but that’s not where the unraveling begins, and it might not even be where it ends.
Trump and company aren’t aiming for the altar or the dark priests behind it. They’re not aiming for the sycophants behind their red-painted pews or the useful idiots mobbed outside, praying to systems in place of their own sovereignty.
They’re aiming for the bedrock of the system itself. They are aiming to move the world, and to bring down the pillars of the old en route to the new.
And like a series of dominoes, one leads to another, which leads to another, which leads to the next.
So, in closing, none of us knows what’s going to happen next, when it’s going to happen and what surprises—good and bad—might be in store for us in the interim … but for the first time in a long time, I think we can confidently say that we can move forward with renewed confidence that, one pillar at a time, we truly are going to bring the whole diseased, corrupt temple down on their heads before building a new, golden and lasting one in its place.
Very slowly … and then all at once.

Your cautionary comments about the timing of future events are important to keep in mind as they help to keep us from becoming discouraged when things sometimes (seemingly) go sideways, or even backwards.
That said, I am encouraged that things are moving quickly in a good direction that, someday soon, we will like the way this movie ends.
Burning Bright,
Your preamble is a masterclass in self-aware analysis—eloquent, humbling, and deeply resonant. It captures the paradox of seeking truth in a war built on lies, and the humility required to keep digging despite inevitable errors. I’m grateful for voices like yours that refuse to conflate certainty with clarity.
That said, I’d offer one refinement to the framework: The closest we get to the actual truth is, well, actuarial. Assign probabilities to claims and various narrative speculations. Verify all known facts, weigh all context and nuance within an actuarial formula, and assign a level or degree of truth to any given speculation. This doesn’t dismiss your narrative approach, but complements it with mathematical calculation: The most rational explanation, given all known inputs, is often likeliest, and beyond that, there is a way to assign a level of probability to all such assumptions.
Trump may know more than most, but treating him as the singular architect of outcomes or knowledge risks replacing one mythos with another. The truth is usually messier—a mosaic of actors, accidents, and asymmetrical power. Let’s keep probing, but with Bayesian rigor: updating degrees of belief as evidence demands, not simply as a myriad of narratives might imply.
Keep fighting the good fight—Love your show on Sunday nights!
