Quick question: Did Jeffrey Epstein kill himself?
If you say “no,” then you’re a conspiracy theorist. Or, at least, you are buying into this one conspiracy theory. And why not? The official narrative in which he committed suicide by hanging in his prison cell during the brief period in which two security cameras malfunctioned, two guards had fallen asleep, and his cellmate had been transferred. . . is more than a little fishy. Even if Epstein had been a low-level Mafia bagman, the number of coincidences here beggars credulity. But add to the story that Epstein was a billionaire pedophile and sex trafficker who likely had lethal dirt on a number of powerful people, and a clearer picture emerges.
In order to keep his mouth shut, he was taken out by people who know how.
This is the perfect conspiracy theory. Not only is the conspiracy narrative more believable than the official narrative, but it is also vastly more entertaining. At the same time, it cannot be proven. The conspirators are too well-connected, too good at what they do to leave behind any clues.
Therefore, the best anyone can do is speculate.
A year later, the same miasma of unprovable certainty now surrounds the 2020 presidential election, or at least how many on the Right perceive it. Donald Trump was winning handily until a series of unlikely coincidences occurring in certain swing states in the middle of the night shifted the victory to Joe Biden. As with Epstein, the fix clearly was in. But there are major differences, two being that the supposed conspirators did leave behind clues and that half the country desperately wanted Epstein to die. Imagine if it had been another Jeffrey, Jeffrey Dahmer, who had died under suspicious circumstances. Would anyone care if someone broke the letter of the law engineering that man’s untimely demise? This is how the Left views the 2020 election — the official narrative of a Joe Biden victory is likely true, but if not, who cares? Donald Trump is so racist and evil he deserves to lose, by hook or by crook.
Of course, they will never say this. Their hatred for Trump and his supporters is so complete that winning actually supplants truth in their minds. Imagine a hostile, vindictive wife during divorce proceedings. If you want to talk, don’t even think about approaching her. Call her lawyer and leave a message. And it doesn’t really matter if she’s hooked on Romilar, maxed out your credit card, and cheated on you with your ex-brother-in-law — she’s keeping the kids and the house. And if the judge says it’s true, then it’s true.
How can one argue with a person like that?
So, lacking a proper interlocutor in the wake of the 2020 election, all the Right can do is search for clues and speculate. And this has led to an unprecedented proliferation of conspiracy theories on the Right. Politically speaking, these are the most interesting times I have ever lived in. Every day, there is a tantalizing new clue. Every day, there is an agonizing new plot twist. Every day, the Left refuses to consider any of it. And the uncertainty! Given the premise we have already established, a good scriptwriter could come up with any number of endings to this spy novel we’re living in, from Donald Trump leaving the White House with a whimper to his crossing the Rubicon and declaring martial law.
It’s a wonder we haven’t all lost ten pounds and managed a full night of sleep since November third.
I myself have no doubt that as of yet unnamed individuals conspired to sabotage the election. They did it electronically — or algorithmically — through our easily hackable Dominion voting systems. They did it manually by manufacturing hundreds of thousands of fraudulently cast mail-in ballots and dropping them off at polling stations in the dead of night. They did it the old fashioned way, counting ballots from non-residents, illegal immigrants, non-voters, and, of course, the dead. They made sure to do it with as few GOP poll observers as possible — even if these observers had to be shoved out of the building. They did it only in the swing states which either candidate would need to win the election. And they did it through the media by declaring Joe Biden the winner as soon as possible, ignoring all irregularities, and censoring anyone who refuses to shut up about it.
Yes, this is a conspiracy theory. As with the Epstein narratives, the conspiracy narrative is more believable (and more entertaining, don’t forget that) than the official narrative in which a listless, semi-demented Joe Biden miraculously surged to the lead in various swing states all at the same time in the middle of the night when trucks suddenly showed up carrying ballots that were nearly all for him — and only for him, without any down-ballot votes which would reveal the precincts of these alleged voters. Biden underperformed pretty much everywhere else, but because he superperformed in four municipalities (Atlanta, Milwaukee, Detroit, and Philadelphia) he gets the nod against an incumbent who earned eleven million more votes than he did in 2016.
Right.
And Epstein hanged himself.
It’s simply too much for me to believe this story over the conspiracy narrative. Unlike with Epstein, the signs of fraud are everywhere. The conspirators did not do a terribly good job of covering their tracks — although to be fair, in a conspiracy this large, it’s would be nearly impossible to cover them all. But still. . . But still, if you actually care to make a proper dive into this surprisingly deep rabbit hole, you will find a pot of gold at the bottom. If you are reading this, you are probably aware of the piles of evidence we already have. There’s no need to itemize them here. This Spectator article describes many of the irregularities. Perusing the Gateway Pundit will quickly get one up to speed. So would dedicating a few hours to watching Rudy Giuliani’s recent hearings in Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Michigan. Richard Houck crunched the numbers nicely for Counter-Currents a couple of weeks ago. Steve Turley teaches us how to argue the election with normies. And then there’s President Trump doing his best Tom Petty and not backing down.
Further, the fact that the Democratic Party and the mainstream media have refused to acknowledge any of this and have behaved in an increasingly dictatorial fashion throughout only seals the deal for me. If these people have nothing to hide, why do they act like they’re hiding something? So, yes, the conspiracy theory pointing to a shadowy elite cooking the election for Biden makes more sense than the official narrative.
Now, do I have direct proof? No. Well, not really. I cannot meet the high standard of proof that a partisan Biden supporter would require. This would likely be nothing less than a video recording of the conspiracy in action, or uncoerced admissions from the conspirators themselves. But as with Epstein, of course we don’t have that. We are assuming a high level of competence among these elites. They would have to be able to cover their tracks, or else they never would have been able to commit such comprehensive fraud to begin with.
So we basically have everything except the smoking gun. We have affidavits, statistical improbabilities, expert testimony, evidence of rule-breaking, and other highly compelling pieces of evidence. Will it be enough?
You can buy Spencer Quinn’s novel White Like You here.
I believe that if enough Republicans in the state legislatures of these swing states take back control of appointing electors, or if the Supreme Court cares for justice in the way it is supposed to, then Trump will be reinaugurated in January. His case is just too strong. But these are two big ifs. Just because Republicans control the legislatures in these states and enjoy a five-to-four majority in the Supreme Court, does not mean these Republicans won’t cuck at the worst possible moment. It should make us all sick with worry that the plan for Donald Trump to keep the White House relies on his decision to declare martial law or the tenuous hope that certain Republicans will not cuck.
Anyone care to take that bet?
In this stagnant impasse between Left and Right, however, we’re discovering that multiple conspiracy theories are now thriving in the primordial muck. These are not just regarding how the election was stolen, but how Donald Trump will stop the steal. Many on the Right are now sifting through every scrap of evidence sprouting on the internet and frantically reading tea leaves in order to determine which of these conspiracy theories best fits the clues. Did you hear the CIA director Gina Haspel was found dead? That’s what the chans are saying, anyway. Did you hear Joe Biden approached Mitch McConnell and offered to concede in exchange for immunity for him and his family? A Chinese guy said it, so it has to be true. And speaking of China, did you hear that the Chinese government bought a controlling interest in Dominion voting systems in October 2020? Isn’t that weird? And speaking of Dominion, why did someone abscond with a Dominion server in Georgia after a judge ordered them to be impounded? And why are Sidney Powell’s witnesses turning up in the hospital?
Recently, a person calling himself CodeMonkeyZ released a video of a Dominion worker in Gwinnett County, Georgia purportedly downloading data from a Dominion machine onto a zip drive and then inserting that zip drive into a laptop in order to manipulate the data. Fraud? Maybe. Against the rules? I have no idea. Apparently, Gwinnett County learned about this and responded with a perfectly banal and, I have to say, reasonable explanation. This Twitter exchange nicely describes how this little tete-a-tete turned out:
BOOM!!!!!
Gwinnett County Official admits to taking data from the Election Management System, plugging it into a laptop, then filtering it with excel. This circumvents the rules that external software isnt allowed on election machines!! https://t.co/9CVJCDM6BK— Ron (@CodeMonkeyZ) December 2, 2020
It’s amazing how two sides can view the same event and come to polar opposite conclusions, isn’t it?
My favorite conspiracy theory on the Right, however, is the rumor that US Special Forces attacked and seized the CIA server installation in Frankfurt, Germany, killing five. This was first leaked by Representative Louie Gohmert shortly after the election. Attorney Sidney Powell mentioned it a few times during the lead up to her “Kraken” election fraud lawsuit in Georgia. Most recently, US Army Colonel Phil Waldron stated at Mayor Giuliani’s Arizona hearing that he noticed what just might have been internet traffic from the Dominion machines going to Frankfurt, Germany.
What to make of this? Well, obviously, Trump ordered forces loyal to him to retrieve those servers in order to get dirt on the culprits and then dish out sweet plea deals to get people to rat. And the ratting will not stop until we reach Biden or George Soros or maybe even the (((people))) who killed Epstein — wouldn’t that be awesome. Heck, Giuliani took out the mob in the 1980s. He knows all about this RICO stuff. And why haven’t we heard anything official about these servers? Well, obviously Trump is waiting for the right moment to spring them upon our enemies. It might be the same moment he crosses the Rubicon.
For all we know, every word of this is true.
On the other hand, these servers are a black box, so they could have nothing. We don’t know. Trump could have had his Geraldo Rivera moment with these stupid servers, and the reason we haven’t heard anything official about them is that he’s too embarrassed to admit that the whole enterprise was a waste of time! How do we know that’s not true?
Then again, maybe there never was a raid on servers in Frankfurt at all? People are saying that as well.
I’m reminded of a line from a great Tom Waits song “Swordfishtromones”:
Now some say he’d doing the obituary mambo
Some say that he’s hanging on the wall
Perhaps this yarn is the only thing that holds this man together
Some say that he was never here at all
Some say they saw him down in Birmingham
Sleeping in a boxcar going by
And if you think that you can tell a bigger tale
I swear to God you’d have to tell a lie.
This is a bizarre time because we really don’t know what information is bad and what isn’t, and it’s coming from all directions, nonstop. The problem here is that some of the conspiracy theories springing up on the Right are fueled more by cynicism and mistrust than by reality. Of course, it doesn’t help that the Left, with its corruption and despotic behavior, gives the Right reason to be cynical and distrustful at every turn. But that still does not mean that all the information out there is correct. I have to say that the eagerness of many on the Right to swallow some of these conspiracy theories is giving the Left reason to think they’re a bunch of loons. And this will only encourage them more to dismiss the Right whenever they push conspiracy theories, even perfectly plausible ones — like how Epstein didn’t kill himself and how the Democrats stole the 2020 election.
And with neither side showing signs of backing down, the chances of this impasse becoming violent in the very near future are rising fast. It’s ironic how conspiracy theories, like the one that could exonerate Trump and save the United States from a Leftist coup, could also break down communication between Right and Left on what may turn out to be the eve of civil war.

November 2020 sure feels a lot like what I’ve always imagined it was like to experience November 1918
This is a tiresome trope – as if the reason people discuss the existence of the “mafia” and organized crime and political corruption is just because it is entertaining.
No – it has a real and material impact on people’s lives, often, their daily lives. Imagine working in the construction business in 1970’s New York City – the existence of the “mafia” is not something you dreamed up because you wanted to entertain yourself. It’s a reality you had to be aware of to survive.
More importantly, 75 million people now no longer have faith in Democracy are heavily armed, have the land outside the cities. The ruling class is worried about China and to a lesser degree Putin exploiting this new reality. There is the dissident rights leverage.
There’s CCTV footage from Georgia that’s as close to a smoking gun as we’ve seen yet. And still…many on the left refuse to acknowledge it…
The statistical evidence of electronic ballot dumps almost entirely favoring Biden bears a logical relationship between evidence and conclusion, whether it can be statistically fixed with absolute precision or not. We could say that the flagrant statistical irregularities, as just one example of the many types of fraud, make the conclusion of Democratic fraud somewhat probable, more than likely, most likely, almost certain, less than likely, or impossible or nearly so, for example. The leftist MSM, as well as RINOs like Mittens, Fox News and company are maintaining that the plain statistical evidence of ballot dumps is not just unlikely or impossible proof of fraud, but don’t rise to the level of evidence in the first place. They’ve bet everything on their audience and constituents being innumerate morons who can be persuaded that certainty and not degrees of probability are the criteria in law as well as science.
They agree (because they have no choice) that the vote counting was stopped by the Democrats, Republican watchers were chased away, and then, when counting was resumed solely under the control of Democratic operatives, the statistically impossible jumps in favor of Biden miraculously amount to no evidence at all. They actually say they’re still waiting for evidence, which implies a standard of certainty, while as a matter of fact, anything more than an 80% chance the statistical evidence provides proof of fraud satisfies the requirement of proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
To cut through the crap, the Republican establishment and Fox News are obviously guilty of concealment and corresponding complicity in Democratic voter fraud, just as their elaborate efforts at 9-11 concealment provide powerful evidence of their guilt in that event which set America’s nascent totalitarianism in motion twenty years ago. We should go further and assume that most Democratic wins in contested areas have been fraudulent since the time Dominion et all have been tabulating results.
To be clear, Fox News, Conservatism Inc, and the Republican establishment have never conserved so much as one single element of our heritage and culture in recent history and only a fool would imagine they ever will. They have consistently allowed the courts to legislate from the bench a coup d’etat going back to at least the late 1940s when Frankfurter opined that, no longer was Christianity and its ethical precepts the binding force and strength of our nation, but rather the chief source of violence and hatred. Seventy years now of Republican betrayal and people cannot see their function today, along with Fox News, is causing us to sit on our hands and hope for a pot luck reversal of a rigged election in the hands of kangaroo courts who’ve turned America into its opposite. Regardless of the outcome of this election, the Republicans, Conservatism Inc, and Fox News owe their financial support and existence to American-hating elements and are being paid to lull us to sleep while the Bolshevik takeover becomes irreversible. If the Bolsheviks fail, what reason would there be to not prosecute the likes of Hannity, Cavuto, Baier, et al for capital treason for covering up 9-11 and implementing this election steal?
In 2008 Raul Castro won the Cuban presidential elections with 99.4% of the vote. Can anyone “prove” fraud? Can anyone “prove” some kind of conspiracy theory by the Cuban Communist Party?
Outside of math and formal logic, I’m not sure that you can really prove anything, but suffice it to say that the proof is inherent in the absurdity of the official narrative itself.
Trump had commanding leads in the swing states, the Dems called a halt, chased out Republican observers, went back to counting and found batches of ballots that favored Biden over Trump by 99 to 1.
Have Democrats provided any evidence that the 2020 presidential election was free and fair?
So where do we go from here? I hate the GOP but I absolutely refuse to recognize a Biden regime as legitimate. I would love to see Trump get in touch with his inner Pinochet and go all chopper on our enemies. Yesterday’s history and tomorrow’s a mystery.
If the US has failed to bring Democracy to Cuba, maybe Trump can make amends by bring Democrats to Gitmo,
Uh, I doubt the election results will be overturned. Biden will assume office, and after making a few sops to the race crazed left, will govern much like Clinton and serve as a , cough, unifier, healing the wounds created by trump.
There was election fraud, but as you well put in your Dahmer analogy, the left just doesn’t care. We knew this: Russiagate and impeachgate both showed that the left could care left about truth and rule of law. The same reason leftist municipal politicians allowed several major metropolises to be looted and destroyed. In the neoliberal mythology of the Left, trump equals Hitler who equals Satan so any act against him is legitimate.
Sad but true. The Left has the ‘facts in the ground’ now in the form of its immigrant and antifa shock-troops. The authorities are either complicit too craven to deal with them effectively.
This is Counter-Colonisation plus Trahison des Clercs, a poison cocktail that is rotting many a European nation, and now the US.
This American election circus is tiresome. Hopefully it ends soon. I don’t feel any connection to this, I sort of feel like this is just the desperate clutching at a ruined fantasy (a la truman show) for gen x and boomers. Voting has been a joke since FDR, the fact that reformers like Ron Paul and Bernie were never allowed near the oval office should let people know. also note the number of times the black hundreds of the global elite has tried to off Rand Paul in the last 4 years.
The best is how this is the finality of the fantasy. I want no more voices of ’24 we will change it, etc. etc. its over. the 1980s is finally over grandpa, you need to change your strategy or pass away. we as whites need to start creating a parallel society for our own race just as every other ethnic group does. we need to start resisting in small ways. no we don’t need the gen x/ boomer macho man with his AR. we need to stop paying taxes, we need trucker strikes, we need walkouts, we need to form white unions. we need a redneck mafia. we need all these things. this are things that should have been started 40 years ago.
Quote: “… the fact that reformers like … Bernie were never allowed near the oval office …”
So you regret that this opportunistic anti-white jew never had the chance to give even more money and slices of the country to blacks and hispanics while opening the gates for third world immigrants wider than ever?
I think what he’s trying to say is that Bernie is similar to Ron Paul in the sense that the Libertarian types see him as savior, much like the how the Bernie bros see Sanders. Sanders could have legitimately beaten trump in an election and was screwed out the nomination twice by the DNC establishment. Doesn’t inspire much faith in the system for either side.
Big-city Dem machines have a long history of rigging elections, so that they rigged this election is not exactly without precedent. It’s unprecedented in terms of scope and brazenness, perhaps, but it’s not sui generis. And they’ll get away with it. They always get away with it. Yes, a fair number of people will be angered by it, and give up on the system because of it. But most folks will merely grumble and get on with their business. It damages the credibility of the elites, but they don’t really care. What are we going to do about it? What can we do about it? Nothing.
I live in Washington state, Mr. Johnson also lived here for a time as well. The fraud was pioneered and polished here that is now being attempted nationally. it is obvious especially when you have lived where this kind of thing is standard operating procedure.
The gutless GOP here never stood up against it here, as well as the residents, my self included are guilty. I am white hot with rage.
A dissident rightists, the appearance of fraud is more important than proving fraud itself. Now is the time to kill off Fox News and liberate millions of white people.
Recall three declarations:
HRC: “Biden must never concede, no matter what”.
Pelosi: “The military will drag Trump out of the White House”
Obama: “”Well, I think we can always send the Navy SEALs in there to dig him out”
These guys mean business. And their planning has obviously been effective so far.
Did Jeffrey Epstein kill himself?
Well … Can we even tell that he’s really dead? Do we know if the information in the media about his premature demise are reliable at all?
Most likely he worked for the intelligence service of a certain country at the shore of the mediterranean and his mission was to bribe and compromise western politicians to the benefit of his people. Jeffrey Epstein might have been their most valuable asset and also very respected in their inner circles of power.
So why kill him – remember: not some useful idiot goy but a member of the tribe and a part of the family – if you can also fake his death and hide him in a swiss chalet or on a private island on the other side of the planet so he can mentor the younger recruits in his spare time while drinking wine?
That’s what I think too. I think the least likely scenario is that he was murdered by liberal politicians. I think it more likely that he took the Roman option and fell on his sword, with complicity from his captors, in order to preserve his wealth from lawsuits of his victims. Based on his personality I think that less likely, but I didn’t know him. I think it most likely that his death was feigned, and he escaped to Israel somehow. It’s the perfect setup—he’s rushed by ambulance to a hospital, takes the freight elevator to the roof, where the helipad is, and is transferred via helicopter to his or whoever’s private jet. That he was knocked off seems absurd. Even if the cameras in his own cell were off, you would see people on other cameras in the facility, like two big burly guys coming in the front door. That could be easily excluded.
Committing fraud that is obviously fraud. Telling lies that are obviously lies. These are old Leftist tactics. The more obvious the fraud and the lies the Left can force us to accept as the truth, the more power they have over us; the more we are humiliated and intimidated. This is the essence of the Left. The Left is evil by its very nature. It therefore needs to be forcefully rooted out like the malignant pathology that it is.
The only thing you missed here is the one possible scenario whereby the Dems won the election ‘legimitately’:
Their five year hate campaign convinced 15M voters who didn’t vote for Obama and who otherwise would not have voted to vote for creepy Joe Biden purely out of media induced hatred and desire to remove Trump from office.
There is NO scenario for a Biden victory which anyone who purports to be on the Right should endorse.
And then the smoking gun video appeared…a negress named Ruby caught on film putting the same stack of ballots thru the tabulator over, and over and over in Atlanta. (Article and video on Gateway Pundit).
Time stamp shows this is when they kicked everyone out of the arena, leaving behind four people. The time stamp then shows a quarter million vote spike for Creepy Joe.
Sloppy, stupid negroes save the Trump Presidency! Maybe Trump will pardon Ruby for deeper dirt?
And shortly after CC publishes this, a staffer for GA GOP senate candidate Kelly Loeffler gets blown up in a car accident. With each event, my sense of skepticism is getting worn down. I don’t want to be the guy who automatically assumes a nefarious conspiracy behind every unfortunate event. However, I am quickly getting there. Is there any evidence that this wasn’t an assassination?
http://voxday.blogspot.com/2020/12/thats-not-accident.html
One of the silver linings of this pandemic has been that we haven’t had to hear much about Epstein’s gal-pal Ghislaine Maxwell. I never saw what the big deal was. I went to high school from 2002 to 2006. There, teenage girls were having sex. Not with me, mind you, but it was occurring and nobody seemed to have much of a problem with it. And now there’s a big emergency that some traded it to dirty old men?
About the election, the claims are coming from the same people who were telling me the wall was going to come shortly, or had already been built, or that I’m a Chinese spy and a shareblue shill for asking when it will be built. Forgive me if I don’t take them too seriously.
