If all the assholes who can't or won't do their jobs would get out of the way, maybe we could get something done. In my 68 years experience, things have never been worse than now.
FBI Rocked By Public Suicide of TOP FBI Agent Who Investigated Clinton Foundation
FBI agents are mourning the death of one of the Bureau’s top financial
crimes supervisors who reportedly shot and killed himself on a crowded
nite-club dance floor, according to top FBI insiders.
Salvatore “Sal” Cincinelli, a former Wall Street broker who joined the
FBI in 2010, died last week during a night out after an FBI training
session, sources said.
Cincinelli was one a supervisory special agent who spearheaded many of
the FBI’s high-profile and complex Wall Street investigations, including
probing the finances of the Clinton Foundation. After leaving his Wall
Street career, Cincinelli was first assigned to the New York field
office (SDNY) and later promoted to HQ in Washington, DC. He was a
native New Yorker as well.
“Very very bright guy,” one FBI insider said. “Such a young guy, it
really gets you in the gut. He put in the hours too, was always working
hard.”
Cincinelli was 41.
Cincinelli was reportedly out partying with FBI colleagues at the
Container Bar, a trendy watering hole in Austin, TX. The group had been
drinking and dancing, according to sources. Later in the evening
Cincinelli reportedly turned the gun on himself on a crowded dance
floor.
If this had happened while Obama was president, we'd assume that he'd
been threatened. But given Trump, Q, and Russia Russia Russia, it might
be that his corruption by the Clintons is about to come out.
Then again, the music might just have been really bad.
“Marijuana use among youth may actually decline after
legalization for recreational purposes,” the most recent study on the
subject concludes. Laws that legalize recreational marijuana are
typically followed by an 8% drop in reported recent marijuana use and a
9% decrease in the odds of frequent marijuana use among high schoolers.
The same correlation couldn’t be observed in states where only medical
marijuana is available.
The study, published in the medical journal JAMA Pediatrics on Monday, July 8, was authored by economists from the state universities of Montana, Oregon, Colorado and California.
“Policy makers are particularly concerned that legalization for
either medicinal or recreational purposes will encourage marijuana use
among youth,” the study says. This is a widespread fear; a majority of
opponents of cannabis legalization fear that legal weed will lead to increased consumption by the young and impressionable. It would appear that the exact opposite is true.
Previous research on the subject showed that the link between
cannabis legalization and rates of use is complex. Two distinct studies,
in February 2017 then December 2018,
reached opposite conclusions using different sources of data; both
studies looked into cannabis use among eighth and tenth graders in
Washington state, but one claims that usage rose slightly while the
other estimates it fell. To avoid such biases, the most recent study
used data collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“Because our study is based on more policy variation than prior work,
we view our estimates as the most credible to date in the literature,”
Mark Anderson, associate professor at Montana State University, told CNN.
Unlike many other past studies, which were limited to one state, his
work includes the entire country with data on about 1.4 million high
school students.
Other research, for instance in the American Law and Economics Review or led by the Colorado state government, seems in line with Anderson’s results.
After the media collaborated with Richard Spencer to
poison the term "Alternative Right", we simply began to describe
ourselves, accurately, as nationalists. Specifically, as "Nationalist
Right" to distinguish ourselves from the left-wing imperialists of the
Fake Right. Since the media's many subsequent attempts to poison that
term have absolutely failed despite their best efforts, both the Left
and Right factions of the globocracy are now attempting to capture it.
Nationalism, by its nature, excludes people. Raising one’s nation above
others begins with defining what that nation is — and who belongs in it.
It’s theoretically possible to have a liberal nationalism, even a
socialist nationalism, that welcomes foreigners interested in joining
the nation’s ranks. The last president’s rhetoric about what Americans
have in common, and how immigration strengthens the country, strikes me
as a species of liberal nationalism.
But conservative nationalism by its nature not like that. It holds that
community arises from longstanding and deep connections between
citizens, connections that come from their shared identity, history, and
cultural values. This is what is “conservative” about it, and also what
makes it inclined to view the entry of foreigners into the American
polity skeptically.
So now instead of liberalism/socialism vs conservatism they're
attempting to set up a false dichotomy of liberal/socialist nationalism
vs conservative nationalism. Their problem is that despite their best
efforts to redefine "nationalism", the word still actually means
something substantial to most people.
And not, as the NatCucks, aka Neoclowns 2.0, would have it, in "a repudiation of racism, libertarianism, and identity politics."
Nationalism, in the American context, means America First. Not "we must
defend our Greatest Ally" or "we must bomb X for the children" or "we
must invade Y because weapons of mass destruction" or "the problem is
ILLEGAL immigration" or "the Z is rotting in the fields!" or "they have
the Magic Paper so they are just as American as you". Nationalism means
rejecting the Proposition Nation, the Huddled Masses, the Melting Pot,
and the 1965 Invasion Act. It means rejecting Judeo-Christianity, the
Athens+Jerusalem equation, equality, desegregation, diversity, and every
other historical falsehood that is being utilized to adulterate,
devalue, degrade, and demoralize America.
And no amount of placing adjectives in front of the word nationalism in
order to gatekeep the genuine nationalists is going to work. But the
mere fact that they feel the need to do so now confirms that the
long-term macrosocietal trends are finally flowing in our favor.
I have been greatly abused, have been obliged to do more than my part
in the war, been loaded with class rates, town rates, province rates,
Continental rates and all rates ... been pulled and hauled by
sheriffs, constables and collectors, and had my cattle sold for less
than they were worth ... The great men are going to get all we have
and I think it is time for us to rise and put a stop to it, and have
no more courts, nor sheriffs, nor collectors nor lawyers.
Shays' Rebellion was an armed uprising in Massachusetts in opposition to the state government’s increased efforts to collect taxes both on individuals and their trades;[2] the fight took place mostly in and around Springfield during 1786 and 1787. American Revolutionary War veteran Daniel Shays
led four thousand rebels (called Shaysites) in a protest against
economic and civil rights injustices. Shays was a farmhand from
Massachusetts at the beginning of the Revolutionary War; he joined the
Continental Army, saw action at the Battles of Lexington and Concord, Battle of Bunker Hill, and Battles of Saratoga, and was eventually wounded in action.
In 1787, Shays' rebels marched on the United States' Springfield Armory
in an unsuccessful attempt to seize its weaponry and overthrow the
government. The federal government found itself unable to finance troops
to put down the rebellion, and it was consequently put down by the
Massachusetts State militia and a privately funded local militia. The
widely held view was that the Articles of Confederation needed to be reformed as the country's governing document, and the events of the rebellion served as a catalyst for the Constitutional Convention and the creation of the new government.[3]
The shock of Shays' Rebellion drew retired General George Washington back into public life, leading to his two terms as the first president of the United States.[3] There is still debate among scholars concerning the rebellion's influence on the Constitution and its ratification.
Cornell professor, and long-time Zero Hedge friend, David Collum recently appeared on an episode of the Quoth the Raven podcast
to talk all things conspiracy. Collum is an economic commentator,
chemist, Betty R. Miller Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at
Cornell University and is known for writing his "Year in Review", which
appears here on Zerohedge at the end of every year.
On the episode, host Chris Irons notes that Collum's appearance was
prompted by a recent Tweet he put out, in defense of being a conspiracy
theorist which sparked a massive social media response and outpouring of
reactions, both pro and con.
I am a "conspiracy theorist". I believe men and women of wealth and power conspire. If you don't think so, then you are what is called "an idiot". If you believe stuff but fear the label, you are what is called "a coward".
On the podcast, Collum and host Chris Irons tap into every major
conspiracy theory over the last couple of decades, as well as several
current events and the world of finance. Some highlights: Collum Thinks Jeffrey Epstein Could Have Been Working For "Powerful People" And "Setting People Up"
The discussion starts with analysis of the current Jeffrey Epstein
fiasco and Collum ponders what "can of worms" could open for Bill
Clinton and Donald Trump as a result of Epstein going to trial and
documents relating to his indictment coming to light.
"It's going to be bi-partisan," Collum says about the Epstein
allegations. "Epstein was working for powerful people, to get dirt on
powerful people. Epstein wasn't just a dirtball, he was setting people
up," he continues.
Collum comments:
"Nowadays getting photographed on a boat with a blonde sitting on
your lap doesn't even cause you to lose a vote. Now they gotta get you
with something much dirtier. I think that's where the underage kids come
in. I think Epstein has been building a portfolio of dirt, like J.
Edgar Hoover."
"What if that crazy ass pizzagate conspiracy turns out to be true?" he asks.
* * * Collum Doesn't Buy The 9/11 Narrative - "Physics Tells Me There's Problems"
Collum then discusses why he doesn’t believe the mainstream narrative
behind the 9/11 attacks. He cites physics, Building 7 and the lack of
video footage of the plane crashing into the Pentagon as two of the big
reasons that he questions the official story.
"I think there's problems with 9/11, but no one wants to say that
because they're embarrassed to say that. But the laws of physics tell me
there's problems. I don't give a shit about the squibs or Larry
Silverstein saying they decided to pull the building. When I watch two
towers come down perfectly and I go 'chaos theory alone says they should
have gone asymmetric and stopped tumbling'..."
Collum continues:
""I can't believe Building 7 should have fallen. There's really not a
shred of footage of the plane hitting the pentagon. Not one frame. The
official frame isn't a frame. If someone's got the footage, let me see
it."
* * * Collum Doesn't Believe the Las Vegas Shooter Story - "There Were People Saying 'You're All Going To Die'"
Dave also weighs in at length on the Las Vegas shooting, questioning
with the host why a motive was never found, how somebody could get rich
playing video poker as the shooter was alleged to have, whether or not
there were character actors on the news after the event and what
happened to the security guard who was involved and only gave one quick
interview on the Ellen show before "relocating" to Mexico.
"There's about 150 things that just don't add up," Collum says about the Steven Paddock Las Vegas narrative.
He speaks about the security guard from the day of the shooting:
"You got Jesus the security guard. He gets shot in the f*cking leg
then all of a sudden goes off the radar. Then he disappears and the word
is that he's gone to Mexico. The explanation is that he had a vacation planned. Then he comes back with a cane and comes back - and does one interview with Ellen Degeneres."
Collum also talks about other mysterious occurrences from the day of the shooting:
"There were people saying there was a couple walking around the
infield saying 'You're all going to die in 45 minutes' - and then they
got escorted out. And then, 'boom boom boom', a lot of them died!"
Collum and the host also take a little bit of time talking about JFK,
the moon landings, negative interest rates and the effect of Central
Bank policy on the global economy.

In a "Not, The Onion"-esque story, CBS local affiliate in Boston
reports that the Braintree Police Department showed that not all cops
are African-American-hating, humorless-monsters, as they jokingly (we
assume) told residents that they should “hold off” on any crimes they are planning this weekend.
In a Facebook post, they wrote:
“Folks. Due to the extreme heat, we are asking anyone thinking of doing criminal activity to hold off until Monday.”
They said doing so would be dangerous because of the hot temperatures.
Instead, police provided alternatives:
“Stay home, blast the AC, binge Stranger Things season 3, play with the face app, practice karate in your basement. We will all meet again on Monday when it’s cooler.”
The post was signed:
“Sincerely, The PoPo.
PS: please no spoiler alerts. We’re just finishing season 2.”
Maybe Chicago PD should consider the same message?
Lori Esker, now 50, was convicted at trial in June 1990 of
first-degree intentional homicide in the death of Lisa Cihaski, 21. She
was released Tuesday morning from Robert Ellsworth Correctional in
Racine County.
On June 19, Esker was recommended for a
discretionary release. It was approved on June 27. Her release date was
set for on or around July 16, according to a spokeswoman for the
Department of Corrections.
Cihaski was found strangled in her car
in the parking lot outside the former Howard Johnson motel. She worked
there as an assistant sales and catering manager. She was found by her
mother after she failed to come home after work on Sept. 20, 1989.
Investigators said she had been strangled with a belt. Esker was
arrested eight days later.
Cihaski was engaged to Esker's
ex-boyfriend. Witnesses said Esker still wanted a relationship with her
former boyfriend, describing her as “obsessive”. Court documents state
Cihaski had gotten engaged just one month before her death.
Trial transcripts state, Cihaski's mother,
Shirley Cihaski described Lisa as an optimist. She said she had planned
to get married in the spring of 1991.
The Epstein connections range from the Clinton
Foundation and the Deep State to the sex cults of NXIVM and FLDS to
Hollywood to the world of international high finance, according to Neon Revolt:
“The megabucks call themselves ‘Mega group.’ This name appeared in
the media a couple of years ago, as a name for the secret Israeli mole
in the upper reaches of the U.S. establishment. It came up in an
overheard phone conversation, later denied by the Israeli embassy in
Washington, D.C. The newshounds and spook watchers got it wrong. ‘Mega’
was not an agent, Mega was the boss.” With some bitterness, Shamir wrote, “Megabucks influence us, even
more than they influence the U.S. Our politicians are as weak and
corrupt as America’s and they are easier to swing. Even relative
small-timers can cause eruption and bloodshed, like the California
bingo-parlor owner [Irving] Moskowitz, who pushed our ex-prime minister
Netanyahu to open the tunnel under the Haram al Sharif…. The Megabucks
can buy Israel with their spare change. If they wish, we would have
peace in Palestine today. But they are not interested in Israel per se….
Megabucks care for themselves, and they need Israel in order to keep
the American Jews together, supporting them. That is why they do not
mind bloodshed in Palestine, and even a bloody regional war does not
scare them.” Shamir concluded: “In my opinion, Megabucks, rather than forces of
Caballa, move the events in the Middle East. It is not magic, just
money—but a lot of money. They do not rule America or Israel, but they
exercise a lot of influence. Fifty multibillionaires united in one
framework present a very real force in the world.”
Steinberg concludes: Of course, Shamir does not have the picture precisely right. The
Bronfman-centered Mega Group is but one component of an insane and
desperate element within the transatlantic financial establishment that
is now pressing for a “Clash of Civilizations,” as a means of responding
to the collapse of their global financial empire, and the threat of a
new set of Eurasia-centered cooperative arrangements among nations
supplanting their power. But, as far as the Mega puzzle is concerned,
Shamir has solved the mystery. No wonder Mossad boss Yatom scolded his Washington-based underling with the warning, “This is not something we use Mega for.”
And what are the odds that a group of Jewish billionaires with ties to
Israeli intelligence would now all be caught up in sex abuse scandals?
We’re familiar with the scandals surrounding Wexner (and his protege,
Epstein), Spielberg, and the Bronfmans (Edgar was involved alongside
Charles, and it’s Edgar’s daughters who got involved with NXIVM), but
what about Steinhardt?
Well, wouldn’t you know it, but Steinhardt just happens to be embroiled in a sex scandal of his own right now!
What a remarkable coincidence! All FOUR of these founding families have
sexual scandal surrounding them, and they all seem attached to the
Israeli deep state, in some way or another!
And remember all those unsealed indictments? R. Kelly's was one of them....
On my cell phone a storm alert went off this morning for extreme heat advisory so please stay some place that is cool and drink enough liquids. This goes from 7am today to 10am tomorrow. I know I am up early but Drew has to be to work at 4am today. Here are you questions.
1) When was the last time you remember the weather being this warm?
2) Have you ever had to work outside with it being this warm and humid?
3) Did your work ever stay home with it this warm?
4) Would you rather the heat or below zero weather?
RACINE — A 71-year-old Racine man has been charged in court with the manufacture/delivery of cocaine as a repeat offender.
Robert C. Christman, of the 5100 block of 16th
Street, was charged in Racine County Circuit Court Wednesday with the
manufacture and/or delivery of cocaine and maintaining a drug
trafficking place, both as a repeat offender.
Politics in America, Britain, and other Western nations have taken a
sharp turn toward nationalism—a commitment to a world of independent
nations. This has been disorienting to many, not least the American
conservative movement, which has, since the fall of the Berlin Wall in
1989, grown increasingly attached to a vision of a global “rules-based
liberal order” that would bring peace and prosperity to the entire world
while attenuating the independence of nations.
The return of nationalism has created a much-discussed “crisis of
conservatism” that may be unprecedented since modern Anglo-American
conservatism was formulated by Russell Kirk, William Buckley, and their
colleagues in the 1950s. At the heart of this crisis is a question: Is
the new American and British nationalism a hostile usurper that has
arrived on the scene to displace political conservatism? Or is
nationalism an essential, if neglected, part of the Anglo-American
conservative tradition at its best?
The conference on “National Conservatism” will bring together public
figures, journalists, scholars, and students who understand that the
past and future of conservatism are inextricably tied to the idea of the
nation, to the principle of national independence, and to the revival
of the unique national traditions that alone have the power to bind a
people together and bring about their flourishing.
We see this public conference as the kick off for a protracted effort to
recover and reconsolidate the rich tradition of national conservative
thought as an intellectually serious alternative to the excesses of
purist libertarianism, and in stark opposition to political theories
grounded in race. Our aim is to solidify and energize national
conservatives, offering them a much-needed institutional base,
substantial ideas in the areas of public policy, political theory, and
economics, and an extensive support network across the country.
Conservatives couldn't conserve the ladies room. Don't count on them to
save the American nation. They're not nationalists, they're Neoclowns
2.0.
I’m Art Kumbalek and man oh manischewitz what a world,
ain’a? So yeah, I’m back from a brief hop up by the Hayward there, one
of those work-vacations with some of the fellas so’s we could do more
research on the billion-dollar idea Little Jimmy Iodine had a couple,
three years back.
You may recall, here’s the deal: You take your Highway 27 out of
Black River Falls on your way up to Hayward and what do all these
bumpkinvilles you pass through—your Augusta, your Cadott, your
Cornell—have in common, besides lots of middle-aged white guys planting
their butts on a bar stool? I’ll tell you what they got. PARKING, and
tons of it. That’s what they’ve got. Little Jimmy says they’re sitting
on a focking gold mine and they don’t even know it. So natch’, if we
could only dream up a way to export this precious and rare natural
resource to your Milwaukee, Chicago, your Hong focking Kong, us guys
could all be billionaires living on Easy Street, I kid you not.
So we took the brief jaunt Up North and yes sir, I can tell you’s all
that the parking is still just sitting there, but we got back home
still without a focking clue as to how to transport that parking to
where it’s most needed. Ernie suggested we try this Kick-ass Starter
thing where I hear you get free dough to finance a big-time idea, so
maybe our dream to make the world a more convenient place still has
legs, what the fock.
Anyways, because of the work-vacation I missed out, again, on getting
over to sunny Spain for the bull running, which reminds me of a little
story about the wisdom of age: An old bull and a young bull stand on a hillside, overlooking a
pasture. The young bull says to the old bull, “Hey man, let’s run down
and fock one of those heifers.” The old bull replies, “Better yet, let’s
walk down and fock ’em all.” Ba-ding!
And of course, I also missed out on Our Town’s annual Drink Beer in
Les Boulevard and Oui-Oui in the focking Street Fest. And speaking of
longtime big-time ideas, how ’bout at the French Fest why not
periodically let loose a couple, three rampaging bulls at the swell
corner of Jefferson & Wells so as to attract the wealthy
international traveler bent on confronting death?
And before I forget, a quick message for you moms and pops out there.
Just like every year, the answer is yes; even at this late date,
there’s still plenty of room open in the much-ballyhooed Art Kumbalek
Summertime School of Juvenile Writing. In fact, there’s nothing but room—I know, go figure, ain’a?
So listen, as a refresher, here’s an excerpt from the brochure I was going to have designed and printed some years ago: Your kids will get the goods on a semi-employable skill, and
she’s open to anybody as long as they’re betweenst the ages of “old
enough to cross the street by themselves” and “young enough to focking
do whatever Camp Counselor Kumbalek tells them to do.” I figure the
session will last about a week ’cause that’s about all I’m going to be
able to stand. But oh, the times they’ll have! Campers will contract a full dose of the writing life, from
learning to never answer the phone to never acquiesce a knock at the
door to never set an alarm clock to never open unsolicited mail from the
IRS. This year’s camp theme: “Writer’s Block, What the Fock.” Each
student will be told to think of something to write about. Then, under
my tutelage, legitimized by personal experience, the student will be
encouraged to take the view that their idea is unworthy to be writ upon,
that it’s horse manure, ’cause how could it be otherwise if they
themselves had thought of it? I’ll let them wrestle with that for most of the week whilst
demonstrating techniques designed to abide writer’s block: Watch 24-hour
TV; stare out the window while hunkered over a full ashtray; pour
another stiff one. Then, with an hour left to the week I’ll tell them
that if they ever want to see their parents again, they best get their
pencil and paper out and make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear the best
they can. Writing. Pressure. Deal with it. But time’s running out. Get your butt in gear and get your
kid/kids registered because seating is definitely limited to those who
sign up, cash in advance. The fee is half-a-grand per camper with all
necessary supplies included: No. 2 pencil with plenty of lead in it;
writing tablet; carton of Chesterfields; extra-large can of Maxwell
House; quart of Old Crow. No free lunch included.
So, if you’re a parent in need of a summertime break, please send me
$500 bucks and sign away your katzenjammer now, ’cause I’m Art Kumbalek
and I told you so.
MADISON — During Wisconsin's 2018
midterm election, which saw a record-breaking turnout, it was not the
close gubernatorial race that motivated Milwaukee resident Marlon
Rockett to cast an early ballot. It was the county's non-binding
referendum on whether recreational use of marijuana should be legalized.
Racial
equity is a top reason why Rockett favors legalization, which 70% of
Milwaukee County voters also supported. Rockett, who co-hosts a podcast
on issues affecting the black community, said laws against marijuana are
a "tool that's used to help hold everyday Americans back." And the
enforcement of these laws, Rockett said, is largely concentrated on
African Americans.
Former
US Ambassador and Netflix board member Susan Rice called a senior
Chinese diplomat a "racist disgrace" in a heated Twitter spat on
Sunday.
In defending China's mass detention of Muslims via a series of now-deleted tweets,
Islamabad-based diplomat Lijian Zhao first noted that "37 countries"
have sent a joint letter to the UN supporting China's position, while
"22 countries" - none of which are Muslim, are against it.
What steamed Rice, however, was Zhao's assertion that "If you're in Washington, D.C., you know the white never go to the SW area, because it's an area for the black & Latin," adding "There's a saying ‘black in & white out’, which means that as long as a black family enters, white people will quit, & price of the apartment will fall sharply."

Convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein apparently had quite the casting couch going on in his Manhattan mansion, according to the New York Post.
Epstein, who was formerly 'close' friends with Victoria's Secret
owner Leslie Wexner, "relied on ...[the] modeling business to source
underage girls for sex," according to investigative reporter Conchita
Sarnoff's new book "Trafficking."
According to an account by Italian model Elisabetta Tai, Epstein
tried to take advantage of the 21-year-old aspiring Victoria's Secret
model in 2004 after she was promised that a meeting with a 'very
important' man could land her a gig with the apparel company.
Elisabetta Tai (Via Facebook)
"He told me this is one of the most important people in modeling,"
Tai said of her booking agent. "He said that this man is in charge of
Victoria’s Secret and he’s going to change your life."
"I rang the doorbell of this incredible mansion, and a butler
answered the door," said Tai, originally from Padua - located around 20
miles from Venice. "It was astonishing. It was a very beautiful house,
and I saw about five models walking around as soon as I walked in. I was
so excited."
Tai was greeted by a woman with "short black hair" described as Epstein's longtime confidant and 'Madam,'
Ghislaine Maxwell, who showed her into Epstein's office. While she
hasn't been charged in connection with Epstein's activities, Maxwell has
been accused by three women of recruiting young women for the financier.
The woman with the short hair introduced Tai to Epstein, who was dressed casually in a shirt and jeans, she said. As Epstein started to ask her questions about her background, she noticed a massage table near his desk.
She said she didn’t think anything of it, and reached for her
portfolio to show Epstein her previous modeling work in Italy. Tai had
done a few modeling jobs in her native country, “but nothing big,
nothing like I imagined I could do in America,” she told The Post.
As Tai talked about her experience in halting English, she said
Epstein moved to the massage table and began to remove his clothes.
“I thought he was preparing to have a massage, and that someone was
about to come in to the room and give him a massage,” she said.
But Tai said she panicked when Epstein lay down naked on the table and told her to approach. He then handed her a vibrator, she said.
“I froze,” she said. “I didn’t know what to do.
“I just grabbed the vibrator and threw it at his head,” she said.
“I mean, I don’t know where it landed, I just blacked out and then I ran as fast as I could out of the room.” -NY Post
While trying to run out of the house, the woman Tai fingered as Maxwell grabbed her to ask what she was doing.
"She told me that I couldn’t just leave," said Tai, adding "She said that this man is important, that he is a friend of President Clinton."
Tai said that she was too scared to tell anyone, which means he did
it according to the 'Kavanaugh standard' established by Democrats in
2018.
"I was too scared to tell anyone," Tai told the Post. "I was too shy and scared that someone would come after me to blackmail me or maybe worse."
Epstein, who was an investor in a Manhattan modeling venture, has
been accused by prosecutors of using his connections to the modeling
company to “audition” girls to give him massages that often ended up in
sexual abuse.
...
A former Manhattan-based model agent, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, also alleged an Epstein-Victoria’s Secret pimp pipeline.
“He [Epstein] portrayed himself as the back door to get a girl into Victoria’s Secret. Some of those girls got in,” he said.
He promised the catalog and ad-campaign jobs, not the supermodel fashion-show gigs, he added. -NY Post
"It was still significant cash for a young model doing the catalog," an agent told the Post.
"They weren’t making hundreds of thousands but they could make about
$5,000 a week modeling for the campaigns or the catalog. Not all the
girls sent to him got jobs, but a lot of them did."
According to another Manhattan model entrepreneur, Maxwell was actively recruiting at Victoria's Secret events.
"They were always these really trashy shows full of rich men in the
audience," he said. "Ghislaine acted as the kind of Nazi guard, telling
everyone where they were sitting in the audience and that she had new ‘pop tarts’ which is what she called the young models."
A French think-tank, The Shift Project, reveals that adult material accounts for more than 4% of all carbon dioxide emissionslinked to digital technologies, while porn constitutes 27% of all videos viewed online.
Talk about a carbon handprint...
"...viewing pornographic videos in the world in 2018 generated carbon emissions of the same magnitude as that of the residential sector in France," reads the report.
The authors then shift to a moral argument against porn, suggesting
that "one of the problems mentioned regarding the effects of consuming
pornography at the societal level is the phenomenon of shifting norms:
during the consumption of content by an individual, a trend towards
increased violence in the content viewed, for example, has been
observed, leading to harmful effects on the individual’s sexuality and
their perceptions of physical relationships."
What's more, men can't seem to jerk off without porn.
Catherine Solano, a sexologist, has observed “for several years, that for a large proportion of men, masturbation is inseparable from pornography”
(Solano, 2018). The use of pornography and thus the visualization of
online pornographic videos are therefore now associated with a
utilization governed by highly automatic cognitive mechanisms, which
allows the efficient monetization of the products proposed. Today, the
economic development of viewing online pornographic videos is therefore
built on a cognitive amalgam resulting from the marketing practices of
the sector: the association of using pornography with the physical act
of sex (Roussilhe, 2019).
Seeing a naked body activates an initial automatic reaction in the
brain which arouses interest linked to the evolutive reflex of the
possibility of procreation (Solano, 2018). Since we know that our
cognitive mechanisms host a bias, called “trigger effect”,
that induces inertia in our thought process30 (Marcinkowski, 2019), we
can understand that the sexualization of content for the general public
introduces pornographic uses within a wider mechanism of influence:
exposed to sexualized contents for the general public (advertising,
video clips, etc.).
So - men have a pavlovian response to naked women which results in
eco-unfriendly masturbation - to increasingly violent content.
