And what is of course most uninteresting of all to Journalists is pursuing categorical denial from intelligence agencies that Jeffrey Epstein was tied to any intelligence service and/or the last known sighting of Ms G Maxwell and her passport(s)...

Today is the 50th anniversary of the US assassination of our own citizen Fred Hampton, inventor of the Rainbow Coalition. This year is the 40th anniversary of our killing of Jean Seberg via the FBI direction of our Press.

|content=I think folks aren’t getting at all what I’m saying. I don’t disagree that Epstein was a sociopath. That *was* my read of him. But there was a 2nd layer. A role,mission or job. The two were in conflict. The sociopath just wasn’t focused enough on science/trading to play the role. https://t.co/2xMDu6IeIL

For 15 Yrs starting before his Florida conviction, I’ve said that Epstein was a “construct” because that sociopath could not have constructed that unnatural role by himself. My guess has been that someone/thing hired a sociopath to play a different one focused on science/trading.

So did he fool me? Perhaps. If he has no connection to any intelligence community, he fooled me. If he really cared about science he fooled me. If he really ran a ccy trading strategy out of Villard house he fooled me. If he was a genius he fooled me. If this wasn’t kayfabe..

But intelligence communities do create assets. They do fit them with backstories and characters to play. That is my guess here. And the role that was being played was a badly drawn Gatsby-Bond like character who would never blink. So, am I wrong? Was this bastard state-protected?

You‘ll note that I‘m completely agnostic in this theory as to whether the underlying sociopath would commit suicide given the opportunity. Maybe! How would I know? I wouldn’t.

What I do know is that if he was playing a role, his character as written would never commit suicide.

What I’ve been trying to focus folks on is that there’s likely more than one layer here. There was a sick man & a separate role he wasn’t fully able to play. Poke at the role: ccy trading, Villard House, IC contacts, associates, tax evasion, etc and see it all come crashing down.

If JE just hung himself, then the person we met was a character played by an actor. https://t.co/vpeqp2hMkZ

|content=For the record, I don’t know that Jeffrey Epstein didn’t commit suicide.

What I am confident saying is this:

“Jeff Epstein, wasn’t a secretive self-made Billionaire hedge fund trading genius who simply just committed suicide w/o any ties to intelligence groups worth reporting.”

I absolutely AM saying that the lack of a vigorous and serious investigation by news media into his reported death and ties to intelligence befitting the severity of this story is essentially *proof* that there is NO functioning press in the United States. We now lack journalism.

D) What is his relationship to US &amp; Foreign intelligence.

Think about it this way. What would you fund if you wanted to observe & influence a good chunk of the future Jewish leaders within the US establishment? Harvard Hillel! For what was Epstein the front end? 

https://t.co/u0tLMsDZeL

How is this not an intelligence community issue at this point? Do we have no right to know whose asset this was and whether pedophilia was a bug or a feature of the choice to have Jeffrey Epstein play the role of “Mysterious mega genius playboy currency trader”? I still say bug.

Whoever authorized this thing to continue deserves what is coming. But this was probably a program run by a tiny number of people. We need to go after them rather than have them take down general faith in our national security apparatus. Which seems likely as this leaks further..

|content=MIT engages in sensitive work. Epstein was acting oddly like a 1-man boutique funding agency after the US stepped away from certain funding.

A) Was Jeffrey Epstein a market genius?

B) If not, what thing X was funding Jeffrey Epstein?

C) Did MIT have a direct relationship to X? 

https://x.com/dabeard/status/dabeard/status/1171592125936521216

It really feels to me like the pervert narrative is what brought an enormous covert structure into view and folks are treating it like the main story. But it seems to me that a large infrastructure was fronted by a badly drawn Gatsby character with no plausible source of wealth.

And the money isn’t enough. Bill Gates didn’t need the money. MIT didn’t need dirty money that badly either. Jeffrey Epstein’s public face was that of someone richer than 11 figures of net worth. And he just wasn’t that rich.

Q: For what was Jeffrey Epstein the front end?

Epstein had an enormous secretive office in Midtown. I know because I dropped off trading materials there in 2004 before his Florida arrest brought him to light. If he was a self-made financial genius of supposedly infinite wealth there will be extensive records there. Anyone???

Why are we not focused on his office? Or am I also about to suddenly take my own life, have an unfortunate car accident, or meet a random lunatic for mentioning the obvious? If this is an intelligence operation why are we trusting intelligence to clean it up and investigate it?

Are we counting on MIT to research MIT? The NYT to report on the NYT? The intelligence community to investigate itself? Why is no one calling for a redo of the Church Committee?? This is not a genie that can go back into the bottle. No one can fake records of his trading prowess.

But by all means, do run yet another story on the “Lolita Express” to “Pedophile Island” as if that’s the only story. We are all terrified to discuss the obvious. Follow the money. Where did this Dalton math teacher get so much? Where is the trading record? Money leaves a trail.

|content=Here’s an interesting, UNINTENDED thing

If philanthropy + named buildings get seen (see the Steinardt part of this thread) as MOTIVATED by whitewashing a rep

Then big giving by good people may become TABOO

as it may backfire suggesting the GIVING is done to assuage MISGIVINGS

|content=@meyerjef In my theory, the actor Jeffrey Epstein was a real person. A math teacher chosen to play a role. The things the actor did as the character are real physical acts. You are not getting what I’m suggesting if that’s your take. Sorry.

|content=The idea was to make a huge bet that everyone would remember when it became clear. Everyone in the Edge world asked “What do you mean he’s a construct?!” Thus they will all remember this theory. This was a badly written character resembling no financial trading genius In history.

|content=A load bearing man was knocked out &amp; an enormous human infrastructure has been crumbling as a result. What that complex really was isn’t yet understood. Keep in mind our universities became increasingly hostile to mavericks, partially explaining this creepy dependence on Epstein.

|content=What do I believe? That there was no “Jeffrey Epstein” as we know him. There never was. 

What we called Jeffrey Epstein was likely a fusion of an actor and a character, both with the name Jeffrey Epstein (a la Colbert). And whoever chose the actor to play the role likely goofed.

|content=Lastly, I think that the authors of the preposterous character know that this was too big, too dumb and too public. It won’t stay hidden. Silencing everyone is not an option. Wrongdoing will have to be eventually admitted to save the thing that the complex was designed to serve.

|content=Oh and one more thing. I’ve believed this since I met this ‘thing’ in 2004. Ask anyone I discussed Epstein with over the last 15 years since before his arrest &amp; incarceration in Florida. He was so obviously a front that I used one weird phrase for 15 years: “JE is a construct.”

|content=People tell me that news has now become commercial and that stories are simply constructed to sell papers/get clicks. This is just nonsense.

Nothing would get clicks, boost circulation or sell papers for a NYT/CNN/NPR like aggressively getting to the bottom of the Epstein story.

As I learned uncovering an immigration conspiracy to use visas to tamper with the free market for STEM labor by our national science complex, no news organization is trying to sell us the actual true stories that move news product organically. The stories we want are held back.

News is a lot like college admissions: it’s an insiders game. We know it’s rigged but can’t quite figure out how. 

Why take that kid/run that story? Why do you consistently have zero interest in the most interesting kids/stories? 

We’re just now learning *how* rigging works.

Take the current totally synthetic & transparent push for “authoritative sources”. Such sources would be the ones warning in 2005 that the “Great Moderation” was a lie & that a crash loomed. Someone like @nntaleb. Yet they mean the opposite. They mean cheerleaders like @nytimes.

|content=Underrated cryptic tweets that I placed 9 years ago for future use. Unnoticed with *zero* likes in almost a decade. 

Yes, our government developed a plan for rounding up people who could contradict the GIN. There‘s a plan for a coming total collapse of confidence in our system.

The Gated Institutional Narrative or GIN is that which Section A of the reserve index was repurposed to protect. It’s the false story of us as a country, and right now nobody smart has any idea why we shouldn’t call for an independent investigation of the Gated Epstein narrative.

Seriously, you shouldn’t believe it from me. If you think the idea of rounding up innocent professors, rich people, labor leaders, newscasters, professionals, etc is nutty....hey so do I. It sounds crazy. 

So go search on that string. Tell me how you make out.

Who’s crazy now?

|content=End/ Oddly, Epstein was buying quite good people, but many who were distinguished by being outward facing rather than the quiet introverted types famous within the fields yet all but unknown outside of them. That‘s a puzzle. Maybe they were the lure to entrap others. Or perhaps..

|content=1/ Long-time followers of this feed will note that I smuggle ideas at times. One of which is that it’s in society’s best interest to pay certain groups vastly more money, and usually groups that infuriate me. If you look at Jeffrey Epstein’s stable of scientists you may get why.

|content=Like the Drake Equation, I feel we need an Epstein Equation to measure an asymptotically vanishing probability that the official simple story is true w/ each new bizarre development.

Just multiply a lot of small probabilities together to see how fast  a product goes toward zero.

I will be discussing the Epstein situation. At least that’s my intention. But anyone can be silenced; I met him & it scared the hell out of me.
He was not a financier. Some ‘thing’ had set him up to play one.

A) Lots of low quality conspiracy theorizing followed by: 
B) A call for platforms to 'Do something!' to stop A).
C) New 'reasons' why G Maxwell and L Wexner can't be made to fill in the details.

This is such bullshit.
