Celia, This is an eye-opening post, to say the the least. The FTX Thing is shaping up to be one hell of a very sordid, sleazy yarn. As for your comment “I am always not in the right mood to tell this whole disgusting story. I will one day”, I for one am all ears when you’re up for it. Have crossposted, FYI. Best, GM🙏👍

I seem to remember that the “news media” was sending reporters all the way to Thailand to interview the incarcerated ex girlfriend of an oligarch who allegedly once heard the oligarch say something about what Trump had purportedly said about something. But now nobody can go to the Bahamas and try to learn more about the main character (and his parents by the way) in a huge financial scandal?
we need a full list of all the people who got donations from this group, because it is all dirty money and they knew and accepted it. I immediately unsubscribed from propubblica, the last dem leaning of my subscriptions. Thankfully we got substack that has people like you dig out the ground under the swamp. May be one day we will get to the bottom and then, like medieval monks, can start to cultivate some decent crops on there !
Does the enemy have unlimited funds thanks to its ownership of the fiat money system? So if there was this much crap riding atop the tottery scam that was FTX, why didn't they rescue it? Could it be that FTX was allowed to fail? If so, why and by whom?
Alternatively, things are very much in a phase of rapidly diminishing control; The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men unravel as the real world strikes back, as organically and unpredictably as it always does. God bats last. God will not be mocked.
The latter potential explanation has nothing to do waiting passively for things to magically right themselves. We fight with what we are and have because we are children of God, expressions of the divine, and we choose to resist with our God-given free will. For me this is the organic whole that cannot be subordinated to the technical part as such would be an impossible inversion of how things are; the technical depends on (is at the mercy of) the organic, indeed is a subset thereof, so simply cannot turn around and become master.
The Sorcerer's Apprentice is absolutely the right metaphor for humanity right now! Loads of curiosity, ambition, even intelligence, but very little by way of wisdom.
I want to respond a little to the idea that "God" is somehow distinct from Mother Nature or Universe. I use the word "God" in what I've come recently to learn is the original meaning, which is close to father-womb or father-mother. I use the word synonymously with All That Is. As such, "God" includes or contains the biosphere (Mother Nature?) and the physical universe (Universe?). The standard cliches that language is not enough, that words fail us, etc., of course apply.
In other words, I take your point, but prefer to engage in the slow process of returning to older or more organic – organic is a big word for me in this regard – ways of intuiting what reality is, and the ancient wisdom/logic that I am slowly familiarising myself with. I feel a very deep need to learn/relearn what my relationship with God / All That Is ought to be, how to honour in the right way my own position or role as an expression of the divine, how to marry it healthily, as a continuing process of learning and being, with my humanity in this realm of opposites, of immediacy, physicality, etc.
Just as a kind of FYI, or disclosure about where I'm coming from.
Patricia, My sentiments exactly. Reading her book One Nation under Blackmail for the second time, though it feels like it’s the first. If you get my drift. 🙏👍
I haven't read her book yet - I have ordered volume 1 but delivery is not until February 2023. I have watched many of her interviews. Her knowledge of all the connections is quite incredible.
Whitney Webb's journalistic integrity, and her "intelligence" operation have been thoroughly exposed by her sources, like Brendon Lee O'Connell, and others, as well as her main source, Kirby Sommers. You're better off following that sleazy, rich, entitled, nasty rag's sources than following Webb whose information comes from people who are real researchers, like Brendon, and Kirby who sent much of her research to Webb's publisher at the publisher's request.
UW Madison Professor Alfred McCoy, author of "In the Shadow of the American Century," learned while doing graduate thesis field work during the Viet Nam War that the CIA was running heroin from the Golden Triangle. He wrote a book about it which the CIA tried to squash with the publisher. Only naive people would believe journalism or publishing were professions that were not long ago compromised by "intelligence."
Oh I didn't know any of that. So you are saying Whitney just copies other people's research without checking any of the source documents herself? That is my pet hate in ancestry research!
Yeah, Whitney Webb is a misdirector. She is typical controlled op like Alex Jones, and Joe Rogan, who WILL NEVER follow the path, and connect the dots to the upper echelon, which includes the Zionists, the intelligence agencies, etc. Webb takes extensively detailed research, without attribution because she's really a dumb POS, mainly from O'Connell, and Sommers, and gets some of the facts wrong, as Kirby just noted on a recent post, and WILL NEVER connect the dots all the way as do O'Connell, and Sommers. Her goal is to get people bogged down in details.
Journalists should build their stories and books out of conversations they gave had with people, transcribed and used as original source material, ie voice based. Else it will lack resonance.
That's my idea. The younger generations though, they base it all on what they find online. And they're geniuses, like Whitney Webb. All of them.
If I may say so: You do your job, which is fantastic, and let us let Whitney Webb do hers. She is a meticulous researcher, and serves it all on a plate. I like Brendon et al, but WW is superior in her presentation. To me, whether she is eclectic or not is neither here nor there. (Ha, eclectic! - that is what you were branded as by Burroughs, right? I think you had a narrow escape there and then.)
Yes, this has Epstein II written all over it. Maybe worse, somehow. I mean, Epstein, at least for optics, was "jailed." This guy, after all that's come out just on the financial fraud alone, let alone these new revelations about the media, is STILL welcome at the New York Times globalist/technofascist bash with Zelensky, Yellen et al on Nov. 30.
i am curious whether he will show up though. If he does, excellent moment to grab him and throw him in jail. As I am curious about zelensky. the president of a country at war coming to give a speech? or is he escaping the disaster to reside in his mansion in Florida after that?
Wow, Celia. We feel this in our guts... we know something is wrong... but you have witnessed this over time. You have a memory of things I never witnessed. I'm so grateful SOMEONE was paying attention! I can only imagine how this feels for you. Thank you for helping us all connect the dots. Our instincts (those of us who still connect to that part of us) are tingling and we're trying to understand this mess!

On Musk's thinking about this FTX debacle -- He says that the FTX exchange would still be operational if Sam-Bankman Fraud (I mean, "Fried") were focused on running it vs. funding media. What???
Does Musk actually think that this was a legitimate crypto exchange?? I'm shaking my head...Is Musk unable to identify an intelligence-and-"government"-backed international money laundering operation -- when it's staring him right in the face?
FTX's "money" (some of it coming from fools who foolishly got separated from it) was needed for the "crack house" (otherwise known as Ukraine) and for buying politicians, buying media, buying "journalists," and funding political campaigns, etc., etc., etc.
Just as "COV!D" went operational for the "vaxxines," (and not the other way around!) FTX went "live" to run the real "money" coming from those idiots in Congress (and elsewhere) in what is likely the largest global money laundering operation in history.
You might be right, but I have my doubts, Castigator, given the sleuthing of so many and the falling apart of the official (crime) story that is the "COV!D" operation, the Ukraine story, the Hunter Biden story, etc., -- all the tentacles that the FTX money laundering operation comprises. Too much is falling apart. Too many people/too many eyes on too much for that money laundering operation to not get exposed. Also, SB-Fraud was not "running" anything. 'Twas he that was being run...
Its all revelation of.the method, mass trial and IQ test/selection process for post-extinction level event protocols.. obvious tells for critical thinkers to survive the troubles. Convenient mystery and endless drama and distractions to manufacture consent. Keep digging but Get your Plan B ready and form self-sustaining communities.
The liberal media foams at the mouth when leaders steal a yacht owned by a 'Russian Oligarch,' but are silent regarding the VAST Bahamian Real Estate Portfolio purchased in the past 12 months by FTX.
Biden's endless $'s to Zelensky has inspired me to do some research into this relationship and its origins. The entire scam has forced me to do a complete 180 on my views of the Israel-Palestine conflict. Now that Elon has opened up Twitter, lots more information is being shared. The zionists aren't happy,.
Well, this will be very convenient, it seem to me, for the powers that shouldn't be.
They can now blame the c-vid nightmare, and the death and destruction from the injections, on this fellow and his FTX contributions to these news sites.
It was all his fault! We had nothing to do with it!
Like FDA recently stating that the ban on hydroxychloroquine was just a suggestion, not a mandate!
Yeah. Well. Every writer is see through. Where was he on the subject of the needle massacre? He's a multi millionaire, I would think. He's perfect. He's gay, he's a great writer, and he speaks truth to power.
Glenn stated that he got the vaccine and so did his husband and kids as soon as they were available. Now, his husband David has been in the ICU for 4 or 5 months with multiple organ failure. So sad.

We need Whitney Webb on board to help unravel this one!
Patricia, My sentiments exactly. Reading her book One Nation under Blackmail for the second time, though it feels like it’s the first. If you get my drift. 🙏👍
I haven't read her book yet - I have ordered volume 1 but delivery is not until February 2023. I have watched many of her interviews. Her knowledge of all the connections is quite incredible.
Celia is quite capable of unravelling this. I have followed her for years.
You took the words out of my mouth.
I like Whitney, but take a look at Celia's book SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS.
I.F. Stone could not have done better.
I especially love the sections about Peter Duesberg and Karry Mullis, but the entire book is a seminar on investigative reporting.
The horrifying final chapter, "Out of Control", which I first read in HARPER'S, should have earned Ms. Farber a Pulitzer prize.
I agree Celia is extremely capable but this rabbit hole is becoming so large and intertwined that I thought a bit of help might be useful.

That's a wonderful way of putting it. On Webb, I agree with Castigator's Nov. 27 comment.
Yes, this has Epstein II written all over it. Maybe worse, somehow. I mean, Epstein, at least for optics, was "jailed."

Sharyl Attkisson will do the job I am sure

Musk is right. Bernie Madoff would have run the scam for another decade, easy. It is about skills and prudence, as any crook would know only too well.

If you have not, read Mathew Crawford at Rounding the Earth on the FTX affair.

The tribe doesn't report on bad things the tribe does. We've all just been in the dark.
Well imagine my fucking shock

You're good, Celia. Just what we need to withstand the corrupt politicians and non-elected government officials...

Silly us.
FDA - Ivermectin; for HCQ, they had devised murderous clinical trials, and can fall back on those.
This explains COVID, FTX, and almost everything else:

Knowledge of Thurber is a sign of culture. Nowadays, even mere awareness would pass for it.
And Glenn Greenwald?
Yeah. Well. Every writer is see through. Where was he on the subject of the needle massacre? He's a multi millionaire, I would think. He's perfect. He's gay, he's a great writer, and he speaks truth to power.
I'm getting too sarcastic.
