Quote:say hello to Alex aosta from 2005 to 2009 he was the chief Federal prosecutor
0:07
for southern Florida his job was to make sure criminals went to jail and he was
0:12
vicious about it Alex aosta I believe is a person of complete Integrity an honorable guy aosta was so good as a
0:20
prosecutor that he caught the attention of former president Donald Trump he has a lower degree from Harvard Law School
0:27
had a tremendous career Trump eventually not nominated aosta to be the United States Secretary of Labor in 2017 the
0:35
nominee for a secretary of the Department of Labor will be Mr Alex
0:40
aosta but before he could assume his new prestigious role aosta had to go through
0:45
an intense review process by the Senate Mr aosta so far you've refused to answer
0:51
my questions a deep dive into every decision throughout his career to see if
0:56
he really was the man for the job and there was one one particular case that they were concerned about a little case
1:03
involving Jeffrey Epstein he's a friend of presidents in other high-profile lawyers arrested on new sex trafficking
1:10
charges waiting trial on federal sex trafficking involving minors see back in
1:16
2007 back when Epstein was first arrested and tried even though Alex
1:21
aosta had more than enough evidence to put Epstein away for Life aosta gave
1:27
Epstein the plea deal of the century the basically let him walk free they gave
1:33
Epstein a plea deal that excused his underage sex trafficking Beyond a
1:39
six-month you know basically home confinement like I mean it was a joke it was like no sentence at all but why
1:45
would a tough prosecutor like aosta do this well the truth all came out when he
1:51
was being interviewed for the job for Trump's labor secretary when he was asked about the questionable plea deal
1:57
he said that he'd been ordered to stand hand down and back off immediately I was
2:03
told Epstein belonged to intelligence and to leave it alone he said Epstein
2:09
was above his pay grade H he belonged to intelligence and was above his payg
2:16
grade what did that mean constitutionally only the president and the Attorney General can order a US
2:22
attorney to stand down the message can be delivered by a minion of the president or the Attorney General but it
2:29
has to from one of those two positions in 2019 when Jeffrey Epstein was
2:35
arrested for the second time everyone found out about this plea deal the the
2:40
was it the prosecutor or whoever it was that cut him the deal literally was quoted as saying I was told he's above
2:47
my pay grade and that he was Intelligence and people were Furious that the current US labor secretary
2:55
helped America's most notorious people get away for a decade but even so aasta
3:02
stood by his decision I wanted to help them he said about dozens of Epstein's
3:07
victims because I know that my former colleagues the men and women of my office wanted to help them I wanted to
3:14
help them a Costa swore his whole goal was to make Epstein serve jail time we
3:20
did what we did because we wanted to see Epstein go to jail but at the end of the
3:27
day his plea deal was nothing more than than Epstein's ticket to freedom the
3:32
Palm Beach State Attorney's office was ready to let Epstein walk free no jail time nothing the Epstein case has been
3:40
dirty from the very beginning this is Nick Bryan he's one of the foremost expert reporters on the Epstein case
3:48
he's the guy who first published Epstein's Infamous black book on the internet and he has a lot to expose in
3:55
this video so the question becomes who was powerful enough to tell aosta to
4:01
stand down well if you look at the law only the president or an attorney
4:07
general can order a US attorney to stand down from an investigation and if that's
4:13
the case one has to wonder how deep does this Rabbit Hole go there's been four
4:19
presidential ad administrations that have covered up uh the Jeffrey Epson case the Bush Administration has covered
4:26
it up the Obama Administration has covered it up the Trump Administration has covered it up and now Biden is
4:32
covering it up and the cover up is pretty Immaculate in the United States there are are 535 legislators there are
4:39
435 in the House of Representatives and and then there's 100 senators and not one of the federal legislators has asked
4:48
for an investigation of Jeffrey abstein when you cover up a crime you are Aid
4:53
embedding that crime so the American government is aiding embedding child trafficking just what sort of
5:00
intelligence did Epstein belong to how was it possible for one man to be
5:05
protected and supported by the entire US Government well in this documentary
5:11
we're going to analyze all the evidence that potentially connects Epstein to the CIA and Israel's mad intelligence
5:19
agency welcome to how to get away with it and this is how he got away with it
5:25
after me they're coming after you and I'm just standing in their way
5:37
Epstein survivors sued his Banks and got $365 million but if they didn't sue they
5:44
would have received nothing that's the sad truth whether you're screwed over by
5:49
an employer or a doctor a corporation or a random driver you won't get anything
5:54
unless you sue them but lawsuits are expensive which is where this Law Firm firm called Morgan and Morgan comes in
6:01
with Morgan and Morgan you only pay if they win your case which means you get America's largest injury Law Firm
6:08
fighting for you for $0 out of pocket and they are good Morgan and Morgan have
6:14
gone up against 3M big tobacco and big oil and they've recovered $15 billion

6:26
in almost every practice area imaginable Morgan a Morgan fights to give you the best shot at getting the compensation
6:33

7:06
Morgan and Morgan for sponsoring this video by the end of their investigation
7:12
into Jeffrey Epstein the justice department had a list of 32 underage girls that were abused at Epstein's
7:19
Mansion what happened in 2006 is that a 14-year-old told her
7:27
mother and father that she had been by Jeffrey abin and they brought her down
7:34
to the Palm Beach Police Department and the Palm Beach Police Department actually believed her because
7:42
she was able to describe his house and and actually facets of his anatomy and they did not
7:49
think that she was lying so they they investigated about a year ultimately
7:55
they found five underage VCS of Jeffrey abstein and and they had uh 20 people that cooperated
8:04
actually there was uh 12 corroborating people and the thing is they had five
8:11
victims that were um on record and had been investigated but they knew about 17
8:19
more so so estein should have been given
8:24
perhaps a life sentence at at that point but the the case was yanked away from
8:30
the Palm Beach Police Department and it it went to a grand jury and grand juries in Florida are
8:38
almost unheard of unless it's a capital murder case grand juries have been Infamous to corrupt because a special
8:47
prosecutor is chosen and Grand jurors are just people that have shown up for
8:52
jury duty and the special prosecutor is responsible for showing the grand jurors the evidence that he deemed
8:59
necessary and and calling the witnesses that he deems necessary and there was a
9:05
New York Supreme Court Judge who said that um special prosecutors of grand juries have so much power over Grand
9:13
jurors that they could get them to indict a ham swich so with that in
9:18
mind the Palm Beach Police Department gave all the exting evidence to this uh
9:24
grand jury what happened was Barry C
9:30
that special prosecutor he called one victim underage victim of Jeffrey
9:36
epsteins and he potentially could have called 23 and he certainly should have
9:42
called the five that the Palm Beach Police Department had records on they called up one victim and then they
9:49
skewered her credibility and and that's the thing about trafficking
9:56
is these kids generally come from from dysfunctional backgrounds and then they're repeatedly
10:04
molested a lot of the kids get into drugs I mean that is the carrot if they
10:09
can withstand the abuse they can in so ultimately
10:15
when these kids come forward you're looking at very damaged individuals and
10:21
it's very easy to impeach your credibility um and that's what happened with the one victim that was called
10:28
before that graduate it's almost like a perfect system because you can once
10:35
these kids become unmarketable they're just expunged and what sure and and what
10:42
they become a lot of the time is drug addicts and alcoholics and then they go
10:50
about breaking laws and get in trouble with the law and thereby compromise their own credibility so it's almost a
10:57
perfect system that way as far as keeping the per um protecting the pers
11:02
when the grand jury didn't indict Jeffrey Epstein on a single count of child abuse the Palm Beach Police
11:09
Department and especially the chief Michael Ryder went ballistic and he went to the feds and he
11:17
told the Feds you have to investigate this that grand jury was a cover up and
11:24
at that point the justice department the feds had a list of 32 victims anyone
11:32
else would have gotten a one-way ticket to life in prison for this type of stuff but not the Mysterious Mr Epstein and
11:41
ultimately what happened was they did not the the the justice department did
11:47
not prosecute abstein um according to Alexander aosta the US attorney he was told to stand
11:54
down because estein belonged to intelligence and it was above his p great and he's been asked about that
12:02
after that and he's never uh he's never recanted that and and the cover up came
12:09
from very high up because according to our
12:15
constitution there's only two people in government that can tell a US attorney to stand down one is a president and one
12:24
is the attorney general so those orders had to emanate from one of those two now
12:30
they can be delivered by a minion of the president or of the Attorney General but
12:35
ultimately the orders emanate from one of those two positions he was given the deal of a lifetime for seemingly no
12:44
reason a deal where he was not prosecuted on a single count of child abuse all he had to do was plead guilty
12:52
to the light charges of soliciting prostitution from a minor and spend a little over a year in the Palm Beach
12:59
jail during his stay he got a private Wing so he never had to deal with other inmates and was even awarded Work
13:06
Release privileges allowing him to leave the jail 6 days a week for up to 12
13:12
hours a day so Jeffrey Epstein's version of timed served was going to jail for
13:18
bed every night the plea deal included other stipulations too like how the
13:24
stacks of evidence against Epstein for his sex crimes would be sealed even the victims wouldn't know that he got away
13:31
with it and the cherry on top was that it included a federal non-prosecution agreement not just for Epstein but for
13:39
any Anonymous unnamed co-conspirators too promising that Epstein and any
13:44
co-conspirators would never be charged for the crimes in the future sure he had
13:49
to register as a sex offender and spend a little time in the big house but it was nothing compared to the sentence he
13:57
could have gotten the sentence he should have gotten it was the single craziest
14:02
plea deal in modern American history it was unprecedented to put this into
14:09
perspective people get longer sentences for shoplifting in Florida than Epstein
14:14
got for organizing a well-oiled sex trafficking machine that seemed to have
14:20
a lot of other Rich powerful people involved so you got a guy who is
14:27
trafficking underage girls you got him nailed dead to rights and you give him
14:34
the biggest sweetheart deal as a prosecutor anybody could ever imagine the point where it's it's not even done
14:40
in prosecutorial circles like this is is isn't even attack why would you ever do that why how regular rich people could
14:49
only dream of having this type of PLL with the justice system this plea deal
14:54
could have only been engineered by someone with seriously deep connection
15:10
so what are we supposed to think it's never been more clear Epstein was an intelligence asset Not only was he
15:16
working for the CIA Israeli intelligence maybe even Russia intelligence so is the
15:22
American government allowing an asset to traffic and molest teenage girls all
15:27
over the world for intell Epstein wasn't just collecting all this evidence for himself he was probably
15:34
doing it for something bigger something like the CIA Stuart kaplan's a retired
15:39
FBI special agent so Stuart this guy's an OP right um he was marked by our
15:46
government as being a middleman Jeffrey Epstein was a professional con man he
15:51
had access to people money and young girls and our government targeted him
15:56
because he was in the game of exploiting people and blackmailing people and the
16:02
government saw that as an asset Epstein was also meeting with Joe Biden's CIA director he wasn't CIA director at the
16:09
time he was Barack Obama's deputy secretary of state William Burns was
16:14
working for John KY at the state department and meeting with Jeffrey Epstein a known P I think Epstein was a
16:22
going back many years what's interesting is he was a College Dropout and then got
16:28
a job at Dalton which is a high school for very affluent pupils or or pupils
16:35
that come from very affluent Families my guess on that is and this is I'm just
16:40
extrapolating here my guess on that is is Epstein got busted an underage girl
16:46
and he was turned at that point by intelligence I believe that that's the case in the book that I wrote there were
16:52
two primary pimps and they were both in Southeast Asia at the same time during the Vietnam war one was in Thailand with
17:00
the top security clearance and the other one was an ABC reporter and I think that they got turned at the same time I think
17:07
they were probably busted molting children and because when they came back to the United States they had incredible
17:14
jobs waiting for them and incredible connections so I believe that estein was
17:20
probably recruited because of his predection for underage girls was smart
17:27
and he was Charming and he was duplicitous and he was devious and he was a sociopath those ingredients make
17:35
up a great child traffic and Epstein had those ingredients in Spades when you
17:40
think about Epstein's case from the perspective that he might have been an intelligence operative everything starts
17:46
making a lot more sense and this explains the sweetheart deal back in 2006 this explains the prison cell cover
17:54
up and this explains why all the Epstein tapes went missing just look at what happened happened with the raid on
17:59
Jeff's Caribbean island just a couple of days after his death the FBI actually
18:04
did a I don't I don't remember the year but it was recent in the last few years they did a raid on his on his home this
18:11
was in the FBI in the logs I me you can actually check this one they did a raid on his home and they came upon tapes
18:19
okay they came upon what would we assume would be surance footage now we know we had the whole house miked up camera up
18:25
the whole thing right including the rooms that were specifically meant for you know illicit activity you know the
18:31
FBI agent on the commanding uh you know whatever is uh agent running the scene
18:36
reached out to Epstein's lawyers and let Epstein lawyers come and decide what was
18:42
privileged and what was able to be taken glain had told a former friend that
18:47
Epstein was a blackmail artist who had completely rigged his Infamous island
18:52
with cameras and microphones people think that his product was sex or Finance but it was silence pretty sure
18:59
the fact that he had a lipstick camera pointed at me from an art object that he
19:04
laid a table that was preposterously long and thin with a tablecloth made of
19:09
an American flag to make it look like a coffin so that I would spill my coffee on the flag of my own country I mean the
19:16
fact that he looked like a mutant Ralph Lauren with this kind of lubricious quality and he's talking all of the
19:23
science and Market stuff and nothing adds up and there's an ays bounc on his
19:28
knee to get her boobs to Jiggles to see whether it can distract I mean it's like one of these crazy scenes where nothing
19:36
about it was normal there was just no there was no trace of a normal World Jeffrey obstein found me almost
19:43
immediately he knew exactly where I was the location um and I knew then that I was
19:50
being fed I was being watched 24/7 there were cameras all over the island Epstein
19:55
himself once told a former girlfriend I collect people I own people I can damage
20:01
people even after Epstein went down as a registered offender he was still surrounded by the upper echelon of
20:08
society he was still going on about business as usual these people were
20:14
politicians CEOs public figures people who should want nothing to do with a
20:19
convicted pedo yet they continued to have relationships with him so when someone does something that doesn't make
20:25
any sense maybe it's because they don't want to be doing what they're doing maybe it's because someone's telling
20:32
them what to do and threatening to release the tapes if they don't I could think of a few people whose actions I
20:37
can't explain but it wouldn't be fair of me to name names it would be appalling and it would be shocking for your
20:43
viewers to suggest or to think that our government would condone that type of behavior but again uh in the interest of
20:51
National Security uh sometimes those things may happen but how did a random teacher from NYC who didn't even have a
20:58
college education end up working as a high-profile intelligence officer that could get away with anything well it all
21:06
might have been through the
21:18
Madam Blain Maxwell was Jeffrey Epstein's closest Confidant his
21:23
associate girlfriend and partner in crime but what many people don't know is
21:28
that Jeffrey was even closer with gala's Father Robert Maxwell it was Robert who
21:34
actually introduced the pair back then Robert was the type of Rich that Jeffrey
21:40
yearned to be he was one of the wealthiest men in the UK during his prime Robert created his fortune from
21:47
nothing after starting a small publishing house that eventually became one of the biggest Publishers of the
21:53
time pergamon press once he earned a steady flow of cash he started started
21:58
purchasing other companies to expand his profit buying up things like media
22:03
companies and newspapers he even bought a big chunk of the MTV television
22:08
station and own two UK football teams Robert Maxwell became the king of a
22:14
media Empire so much so that it catapulted him to billionaire status as
22:20
they started getting closer it seemed like Robert's wealth was rubbing off on Epstein many people believe that it was
22:27
actually Robert who helped Epstein start making ridiculous amounts of money in the world of the elite but then in 1991
22:36
tragedy struck Robert was out at Sea on his $18 million yacht the lady galain
22:42
near the Canary Islands when he mysteriously fell overboard to his death
22:48
a fisherman had discovered his body floating lifeless in the ocean 15 mil
22:53
away from his boat it was later discovered that half a billion dollar was missing from the Pension funds of
23:00
Robert's businesses he was using all his employees hard-earned retirement money
23:05
to fund his lifestyle and right before he died Robert was mere moments from
23:11
financial and social collapse it looked like a simple story of a fraudster
23:17
taking his own life before it all collapsed until it came out that there was a very high likelihood that he was
23:24
working for Israel's version of the CIA Massad and that maybe he was even
23:30
working for Russia's version of the CIA the KGB Frey Epstein was blackmailing
23:35
some of the most powerful men in the world I all you got to do is look at his black book and Jeffrey Epstein was a
23:41
College Dropout from workingclass Coney Island is Jeffrey Epstein going to be
23:48
able to Blackmail Les Wexner who has connections to the mafia there's no way in hell I mean Jeffrey Epstein would
23:55
have a very brief life expectancy if he did that but the thing about it is if
24:01
he's got an intelligence apparati behind him mhm and
24:06
and they make it known to whoever he's blackmailing no one touches Jeffrey Epstein or else pictures are going to
24:14
come out I mean that's the only way that Jeffrey Epstein um is able to Blackmail
24:19
you think that Jeffrey Epstein had an intelligence organization behind them oh absolutely no doubt about it the FBI
24:26
spent a decade mon ing Robert to try and uncover his work as a double or even
24:31
triple agent one report called Robert a thoroughly bad character and almost
24:37
certainly financed by Russia but they couldn't nail him against the wall at least not publicly it wasn't just the
24:45
FBI that had their suspicions about Robert being involved with intelligence shortly before he drowned a
24:51
self-proclaimed Massad officer named Ari Ben manah was going to Media outlets and
24:57
tell telling them that Robert Maxwell had been working for Israeli intelligence for years Ari claimed that
25:03
in the mid 80s Maxwell told Israel about a nuclear scientist who had spilled info
25:09
about the country's nuclear capabilities the scientist was then kidnapped brought to Israel and held prisoner for 18 years
25:17
for treason but it didn't stop there after Robert's death six current and
25:23
former members of Israeli intelligence Services the Prime Minister and the president of Israel at the time all
25:30
showed up to his funeral the Prime Minister yzak Shamir even made a speech
25:36
saying that Robert Maxwell had done more for Israel than can today be told many
25:41
people believe to this day that Robert Maxwell worked for and was subsequently killed by mad he's even been accused of
25:50
stealing one of America's most sophisticated intelligence gathering devices for the Israeli intelligence
25:56
agency so some some speculate that it was maybe the CIA that had taken him out
26:01
themselves when Robert died it only brought galain and Jeffrey Epstein closer together soon they were publicly
26:08
dating and galain was managing a bunch of his properties for him yes the
26:14
properties where all the crimes went down so Robert Maxwell could very well
26:20
be the missing link between Jeffrey Epstein and his Sinister opulent life
26:25
maybe Jeffrey had been in on the intelligence work with robertt and once Robert died he took the torch okay so
26:34
people speculate that it was Israeli and not American but here's the thing about
26:40
that and I try to explain it to people there's no way that American intelligence is going to let Israeli
26:47
intelligence compromise American politicians without getting a cut of that intelligence but there's another
26:54
key player in Epstein that no one talks about EP ste's lawyer the most infamous
26:59
lawyer in
27:11
America when Jeffrey Epstein was being investigated for his crimes he knew exactly who to hire as his lawyer if he
27:18
wanted to get off his good friend Alan dtz you see Alan dtz is one of the best
27:24
lawyers in America and one of the best connected lawyers in America and he's
27:29
got a lust for winning high-profile cases with a ton of evidence against the defendant he's even helped overturn
27:36
Court decisions through the appeals process dtz represented guys like OJ
27:44
Simpson Mike Tyson and most recently former president Trump fast forward to
27:50
2006 and dtz jumped on the opportunity to represent Jeffrey Epstein as well
27:55
sure it was Alex aasta who who gave the green light on Epstein's plea deal but it was dtz who outlined and negotiated
28:02
the whole thing he was the one who set everything in motion dtz did his job as
28:08
a lawyer and discredited the victims he did everything in his power to get Epstein the lightest sentence possible
28:15
and he probably even impressed himself with how successful he was Alan dtz is
28:21
also really good friends with Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu break news from uh Jerusalem
28:30
Israel um I spent part of the afternoon today with uh prime minister Benjamin
28:37
nanyu he's not yet prime minister but he has been elected over and over again
28:43
Epstein got away with his crimes but unfortunately for him all that protection from the government started
28:50
making him feel invincible and It ultimately led to his downfall I think
28:55
there's a couple of reasons why EP was ultimately arrested in 2019 I believe
29:01
that he was getting too big for his Bridges he was contravening things that were told him and and he he thought that
29:08
he had the power to circumvent uh someone that gave him an order the other reason is Jeffrey Epstein was a
29:15
blackmail artist and blackmail artists have to be in the background once people
29:20
knew that Jeffrey Epstein was a blackmail artist articles came out about him in the Miami Herald there's no way
29:27
that he could be a blackmail artist anymore everybody knew what he was up to Epstein had outlived his usefulness and
29:35
we all know what happened then once Epstein died the masses set their sights
29:41
on the next best thing glain but too bad they would get nothing out of
29:55
her today we announced charges against gain Maxwell for helping Jeffrey Epstein
30:01
sexually exploit and abuse multiple minor girls Maxwell has been taken into
30:07
custody with Epstein gone she was the one who was going to Spill the answers that everyone had been waiting for the
30:15
world was finally going to know exactly what happened with Jeffrey Epstein and
30:20
how he got away with it all do you uh concur with the the opinion that it was a suicide I think that's crazy I'm aware
30:27
of at least three Epstein investigations you got a whole bunch of women who were Red by this guy this guy had evidence
30:33
he's got co-conspirators and there are victims out there who want to know where the evidence has gone but that's not
30:40
what happened galain went through an intense month-long trial and she was
30:45
eventually convicted of you know what trafficking conspiracy and transportation of a minor for a legal
30:51
sexual activity Maxwell found guilty on five of six counts related to sexual
30:56
abuse and trafficking of underage girls for Jeffrey Epstein her former boyfriend and longtime associate she was sentenced
31:04
to 20 years in prison in 2021 which seems like a win but once again no one
31:10
else has been named no other co-conspirators have been charged the trial of gain Maxwell was a joke the
31:17
prosecutors called four victims and none of those victims had been pandered to powerful people so they did not know the
31:24
extent of Jeffrey Epstein's Network they just locked her away and expected everyone to stop asking questions not a
31:32
single person that I can think of have we been told is the actual Target of this blackmail because if it ever came
31:39
out that the CIA and US Government aided and abetted child trafficking it would
31:45
kill the last shred of the people's belief in the
31:56
system to this day the public has zero clue who Jeffrey Epstein really was we
32:02
still don't even know the most basic things about him like how Epstein got so
32:07
rich in the first place felt rich in a movie Sense which is not something that you find among actually rich people no
32:15
one seems to know how he made money well the $7 million Penthouse that he had in
32:21
Manhattan was given to him right given to him who the gives someone a $70 million house we still can't even nail
32:27
down a real job title for Epstein to this day he only ever had two known
32:33
clients Leslie Wexner the questionable former CEO of the Victoria's Secret
32:39
lingerie brand and Leon black the billionaire co-founder of AP poo Global
32:44
Management which controls over $600 billion and the work he did for them is
32:51
vague at best many people believe that Epstein didn't have any money of his own
32:56
and that instead he was using his client's money but when you dig into his relationship with his biggest client Les
33:04
Wexner even that starts pointing suspiciously to the CIA Lex Wexner gave
33:10
Jeffrey Epstein power of attorney over his multi-billion Dollar Empire I believe it was in 1992 or 93 so Jeffrey
33:18
Epstein basically could do whatever he wanted with les wexner's money it's very
33:24
interesting Les Wexner was hooked up with the mafia there were
33:30
elements of the genovesi crime family that transported his Goods around the
33:37
country the person that he used was Walsh Trucking Frank Walsh and he was
33:43
heavily implicated in Mafia in the mafia so when we get to the CIA he brought uh
33:51
Southern Air transport which was in Florida and the CI had been using that
33:56
forever now he brought Southern Air transport to Ohio and ostensibly at the
34:04
Rick and maker Air Force Base the reason the rationale that was given for him
34:10
buying this or using this CI proprietary Airline was that it was going to be used
34:16
to ship limited merchandise throughout the country so Les Wexner is using the
34:21
mafia to ship his merchandise around the country and then he's using a CI proprietary airline to ship his
34:29
merchandise around the country now that's very strange I've read that Jeffrey Epstein was integral in getting
34:36
Southern Air transport to Ohio people that have written about it said that Epstein was the one that ultimately did
34:45
the logistics of transferring the CI proprietary Airline Southern Air
34:50
transport to Rick and Bacher base in Ohio I think that that's definitely
34:56
plausible B it wouldn't surprise me and actually actually I'm leaning that way but I just haven't seen the proof the
35:03
name of the game is compromise or compromise if you want to use the Russian terminology Wexner I believe was
35:11
already compromised Epstein was hooked up with Wexner estein was compromised himself and then estein went on to
35:19
become the interstate pimp that he became but it was all done with wexner's
35:24
mind no matter what thread in Jeffrey Epstein's life you follow it eventually
35:30
ends up back with the CIA even his very existence seems like a CIA construct
35:37
it's almost like he didn't even exist like he was a madeup character this is

The Great Queen

“They are nothing more than mere hairless apes that have a propensity to wage war and kill each other for any perceived insult or threat; they will be perfect for our plans,” was First Breeder's reply to his Royal Queen.


The Queen studied the information that had been gathered on this target species for her review and was satisfied that First Breeder was correct in his assessment of this galactic outer arm species.


“What will we call this race?” was her only question.


“They call themselves Human,” Great Queen.


Her mandrills clacked as she tried to form the word “human” with he mouth parts. She finally succeeded in making a sound that came out as a hiss of Hue-Mon. Verbalization was never easy when trying to pronounce a different species language.


“Have we coded one of our translators to decipher their language,” the Great Queen asked?


First Breeder's antenna drooped from their normal erect posture in the Queen's presence as he said, “ Great Queen there is a problem as they do not have one universal language but instead have many home spun regional languages. We have managed to install only 7 of their many languages from intercepted radio transmissions but we do estimate we have achieved at least a 79% accuracy rate with two of the languages.”


“How Primitive they truly are,” was the Great Queens only reply.

Best review I've seen so far...

Quote:Cammisa explains the engineering behind Tesla's controversial pickup truck, including its stainless-steel ("HFS") exoskeleton construction, enormous aluminum castings and structural battery pack. He attends a live side-impact crash test in Tesla's Crash Lab that demonstrated how tough the skin is. And then, of course, tries to dent it with a sledgehammer. Or BFH, for those who know.

The similarities with the DeLorean go way beyond the stainless exterior — in fact, the Cybertruck most closely resembles the famed Lamborghini LM002 pickup — a V12-powered dogleg 5-speed off-roader, dubbed "Rambo Lambo," that was as fast as a sports car. In fact, Jason reads an excerpt from the original Car and Driver magazine review of the LM002, and everything said applies directly to the Cybertruck.

Including that the Cybertruck Cyberbeast is the quickest-accelerating pickup truck in history. Watch as it leaves the previous champion (the Rivian R1T) for dead, hitting 60 mph in just 2.6 seconds and blasting through the quarter-mile in 11.0 seconds at 119 mph. Cammisa reran the test on untreated (non-VHT) asphalt and got the same numbers — and marvels at how consistently the Cybertruck accelerated. Even with the Battery SoC in the mid-30-percent range after hours of consecutive runs, it still hit 60 in 2.6 seconds, and had only lost 0.3s at the quarter mile.

That newfound consistency is partially due to the new 4680 Gen 2 batteries, which are far larger than Tesla's previous 18650 and 2170 batteries, and are manufactured in-house.

The Cybertruck is nearly twice as efficient as the Hummer EV, thanks to a Lotus-like obsession with efficiency. With a battery pack of just 123 kWh, it's expected to receive an EPA Range of over 310 miles.

And the Cybertruck is even lighter than the Rivian R1T, Hummer, and Lightning — Cammisa weighed them all.

CURB WEIGHT:
Cybertruck Cyberbeast  6717 lb
Rivian R1T Quad-Motor AWD 6777 lb
Ford F-150 Lightning 6813 lb
GMC Hummer EV First Edition 9316 lb

Long blog post but thought it was worth sharing.

Quote:The tinfoil hat, the country bumpkin, the cork board strewn with a tangled web of string- these are examples of images used in the old stereotyping of UFO enthusiasts. Mass media and pop culture have promoted these tropes for ages, with the cumulative effect of minimizing the subject in the broader public consciousness. Likewise, the existence of ghosts, magic powers, and cryptozoological specimens has traditionally been pushed to the margins which, perhaps, may be the best place for them. For those who have had an experience with any of these mysteries, or those who seek to investigate them, a minefield lays ahead in the no-man's land of alleged expertise on these matters. Traversing the field becomes a perilous journey, full of pitfalls and explosive revelations. Without a guide, a map, or markers to go by, one must trust one's intuition.

At the time of this writing it seems that public opinion has softened on these once shunned topics, but the old problems still persist. In the field of UFOlogy, for example, this broader acceptance seems to be a result of government hearings and a push toward that ever-elusive, amorphous old chestnut Disclosure. In the minds of many passive observers, "the Government said" that aliens are real. Those who have a vested interest in full Disclosure celebrate these events as minor victories on the road toward revelations of alien bodies and reverse-engineered technology from another world- and among these advocates, nothing short of that will be satisfactory, regardless of the facts. In the never-ending quest toward Disclosure, whatever that might mean to whomever might be interested in such a thing, there is the persistent idea that the subject is made more credible by the involvement of authority figures. Luis Elizondo himself, the de facto figurehead for the current crop of UAPology Disclosurists, said in no uncertain terms that he wished to dismantle the field of UFOlogy. Scorching the earth, relieved of the crackpots and amateurs of old- along with the experiences of everyday people- a new Utopia seemingly awaits in this worldview. Once the Government tells us what it knows, a new day will dawn: A New Age of peace and prosperity, and all we need to do is approve funding for military programs to look into it.

This is, of course, hogwash of the highest order. UFOs are and always will be obscured by the eclipse of their own mythical shadow in the public consciousness. The tinfoil hat of old always cautioned us to question authority figures, but the modern more accepted cranks grasp desperately for authorities to confirm or deny the truth for them. So hungry are they for confirmation, they seek to be legitimized by whatever authority is advantageous at the moment. The trouble is that UFOs answer to no authority. They are tricky things, airborne pookas turning expectations upside-down and inside-out, inspiring even skeptics like Phillip Klass to lay a "curse" on the pursuit of them. We would never know more about them, he said, than we did during his time. This subversion- the arch-debunker and materialist resorting, albeit jokingly, to something as spooky as a curse- is a classic example of the UFO deftly eluding our attempts to rationalize it. By extension, the other aforementioned mysteries of the world are quite adept at remaining mysterious. Perhaps that is their entire function.

When we seek out experts, when we seek to legitimize anomalous phenomena, and when we promote "serious" inquiry into these subjects we are simply flailing around in a minefield hoping someone will show us the way. Many are the traps and dangers associated with the idea of credibility. Investigators have long favored reports that come from "trained observers", ranging from military personnel to law enforcement individuals and those with a background in science. As a corollary to this, cases are often downplayed or discarded when the report comes from an average Joe. The underlying presumption is that military pilots, for instance, are incapable of making mistakes about what they see in the air. Military and law enforcement professionals, we are told, are also more trustworthy by virtue of their career paths and less likely to lie, or suffer mental illness. This of course is entirely bogus. All the same, when in search of that coveted credibility, reports from the military or police tend to be prioritized. It's too risky to rely on reports from everyday people, and why would you? Especially when someone with a PhD or government clearance is available to offer their own unimpeachable truths. The country bumpkin of old is left to wonder at his own experiences, and defer to the "experts".

This mentality naturally results in a discourse beyond parody, as we see in the world of UAPology today. The testimony of David Grusch, which amounts to little more than a litany of very tired UFO myths that have been relentlessly debated or debunked over the course of decades, being considered a form of whistleblowing is simply ludicrous. It amounts to little more than gossip, ultimately, and does nothing to further the truth- quite the opposite, it reinforces poppycock that only muddies the waters. And yet, paradoxically, stunts like that bring a veneer of credibility to the outside observer. Similarly, this appeal to authority in a misguided attempt to locate reliable sources leads folks to books by really problematic old heads who happen to have "Dr" attached to their names. For those who don't know the history, a book by Dr. David Jacobs might sound more credible than one by John Keel simply because one of them has an academic background and the other, none. The trouble of course is that Jacobs has been repeatedly revealed to have been a fraud and a creep, his "research" methods are shown to have been highly flawed, and his ouevre rendered thus virtually worthless. It is human nature, perhaps, to be less critical when an author, investigator, or correspondent has a title such as Doctor, Lt. Commander, or Officer attached to his or her name. It is nevertheless wrong to assume their authority on any given matter is uncontaminated by ulterior motives, craziness, or judgment errors.

It is difficult to talk about these distinctions in our polarized age. A false dichotomy is prominent in the world of UFOs, which pits believers against debunkers. In truth there is a broad spectrum of belief and opinion, all of which exists within the tiny fraction of the overall population that even cares to discuss the subject. Dismissing this or that piece of evidence, or questioning the stories of alleged authorities promoting UAPs does not necessarily indicate a belief that UFOs are bogus. For the part of this writer, a cursory glance at other posts on this very site will give you all the evidence you need about where I stand. The point is quite moot, though; suffice to say, UFOs are empirically real. What they are- and who is qualified to authoritatively determine that- is indefinitely a matter of speculation. Many are attracted to the so-called field of UFOlogy because it is such a loosely defined area of study. Similarly, the methods of Paranormal Investigators vary wildly, and there as many divergent approaches to cryptozoology as there are methods to develop wild talents of the psychical kind. This is neither a good or bad thing. It is simply a thing to realize, to be wary of, and to figure into one's personal calculus when presented with fantastical tales of the improbable. Astrophysicists may indeed have good insights on the UFO phenomenon, but reliance on their ideas seems to presuppose that UFOs come from outer space. Science has a role to play in unraveling some of these "Woo" mysteries, as they increasingly seem to become less "Woo"- but one should be ever cautious, as science itself is an evolving system of thought and is also a layer of the minefield.

To illustrate the tricky nature of science, authority, and truth as it pertains to the mysterious, you are invited to consider the tale of Eusapia Palladino, a spirit medium Houdini referred to as the "greatest deceiver of them all." Her recorded feats were many, and were studied by scientists throughout Europe between the late 1800s and the early 20th century. Along with the standard parlor tricks for mediums of her time, such as producing raps and ethereal music, table tipping, and levitation, Palladino was also said to have been able to read through her ear and emit a frigid breeze from a scar on her forehead. In an issue of FATE Magazine from 1961, Cheiro reports having been present for a powerful display of her abilities. He claims that while staying at the Naples property of a wealthy American, one Major Davis in 1904, Palladino was brought in to showcase her abilities as a 'furniture mover'. The Major leaned against an oak chest smoking a cigar, expecting light amusement more than genuine paranormal performance. However, in Cheiro's account, Palladino's head whipped back, her eyes became white, and in a trance her arms projected white, ectoplasmic appendages in the direction of a heavy table with a marble top. The table steadily slid across the floor until it pinned the Major against the chest, and several men pushing against it failed to relieve him. Cheiro finally pulled away the medium herself, which broke the trance and the commotion of the table. Upon touching the marble top, it gently and swiftly returned to its original place in the room. All of this occurred in broad daylight, according to him- and the wealthy American did not wish to see any further demonstrations of her powers.

These kinds of demonstrations began in her youth, and soon the illiterate, unassuming peasant girl mystified the greatest scientific minds in Europe. Pierre and Marie Curie, Sir Oliver Lodge, and Charles Richet were among the befuddled scientists who recorded supernatural events in laboratory sittings. In her home country of Italy, however, it was Cesare Lombroso who first analyzed her abilities and found her to be genuine. Lombroso was internationally renowned for his work in the study of criminals. He is called by some "the Father of Criminology" for his ground-breaking studies into understanding the societal and cultural conditions that produce lawlessness. He was held in high esteem at the time of his sitting and examination of Palladino, and when he publicly declared her to be genuine his colleagues and the public turned on him. How could someone so shrewd be taken in by common parlor tricks and hocus pocus? The more generous among them excused his conclusions by declaring that his mental faculties had diminished with age. Still, by Lombroso's account, he encountered the ghost of his mother during a sitting with Eusapia. The medium sat in full view at one end of the table when Lombroso recognized the warm embrace of his own mother, in spirit form.

Lombroso's rise to prominence began with an epiphany during the autopsy of a convicted criminal, combined with his interest in the brand new theory of evolution. He noticed an anomaly in the skull of his subject, of a type he would later call a stigmata, which suggested to him biological markers found in lemurs and rodents. In his words, "like a large plane beneath an infinite horizon, the problem of the nature of the delinquent was illuminated which reproduced in our time the characteristics of primitive man right down to the carnivores." In short, he believed that some percentage of criminals were evolutionary throwbacks. The work that gained him international renown was largely predicated on the idea that biological markers could identify subjects as "born delinquents", and that such "criminaloids" were beyond rehabilitation. Crime, to Lombroso, could be understood in physiologic and genetic terms, and all of this naturally ties into problematic ideas on race and also eugenics. His archive of criminal studies is now a museum in Turin, and includes his own head which was preserved for study.

Lombroso's theories on the atavistic nature of the criminal mind were borne of a misunderstanding of, and misapplication of, the Theory of Evolution. On the Origin of the Species, Charles Darwin's initial book on the subject, was careful not to approach the idea of human evolution too directly for fear of controversy. It is interesting to consider the more spooky and spiritual elements of evolution as an idea. Darwin was a cautious and thoughtful scientific mind, cataloguing examples of what he saw as evidence for natural selection and adaptation within species. While at work on the book, in another part of the world, Alfred Russel Wallace was busy identifying new species of birds. Of all known bird species, Wallace was responsible for identifying 2% of them. He contracted malaria during his expedition, and in a fever dream conceived of the very same ideas Darwin had been working to elucidate. It was fate that brought him to Moluccan Islands where this occurred- his prior expedition had met with disaster when his ship full of specimens sunk on its way back to England, forcing him to start over in Indonesia. Fate again played a hand by bringing him his fever dream of survival of the fittest- and by choosing to write to Darwin, rather than a journal, he forced Darwin's hand in releasing the work to the scientific community. Wallace and Darwin both presented their ideas together, bringing the former a new dimension of celebrity and renown.

Darwin continued to refine his ideas about evolution, and while he was cautious about the origin of humans Wallace was not. Wallace came to believe that a spiritual evolution of sorts was responsible for the dominance of humanity on earth, and further that the world of science itself would never be complete until the spirit world was better understood. His interest in spiritualism, and also hypnosis / mesmerism, caused consternation among his peers. He was notoriously bad with money, and wasted a good deal of it on an insane wager with a Flat Earther. Darwin had to arrange for his friend Wallace to receive a pension to help keep him afloat.

All the while, Wallace insisted his colleagues in the scientific community include spiritualism in with the other natural sciences. He of course got nowhere with them; the established authority of the time had decided it was all bunk. T. H. Huxley responded by saying "I never cared for gossip in my life, and disembodied gossip, such as those worthy ghosts supply their friends with, is not more interesting to me than any other. As for investigating the matter, I have half-a-dozen investigations of infinitely greater interest to me which any spare time I may have will be devoted. I give it up for the same reason I abstain from chess- It's too amusing to be fair work, and too hard work to be amusing."

We may put this in contrast with a well-known quote from the very same Huxley: "The known is finite, the unknown infinite; intellectually we stand on an islet in the midst of an illimitable ocean of inexplicability. Our business in each generation is to reclaim a little more land, to add something to the extent and to the solidity of our possessions." The references here to land, and to solidity, exemplify well the materialist mindset of hard data that still dominates today. It stands to reason that when there's infinitely more mystery than there is certainty in our world, the priority should be on the most immediately verifiable; but to Wallace, if the ethereal realm were understood, it would fill in all of the gaps. Perhaps a Lombroson illuminating horizontal plane would rise up and displace water from Huxley's illimitable sea of inexplicability, causing the imponderables to become quite matter of fact. And perhaps its all a daydream, or a fever dream brought on by the malaria of cognitive biases. 

Lombroso's work included the idea that other regressed, atavistic types included the insane and the geniuses. Evolutionary deviants, if not of the criminaloid type, may present staggering intellects but would pay for the benefits in the form of degraded organs and possibly madness. Similarly, there is a fine line between brilliance and crazy talk. It's difficult, as we get away from Huxley's illimitable ocean and back to the minefield, to conclude definitive answers on any of these mysteries and further, to discard or idolize any of the players and theories completely. It is a complicated and tangled mess. Lombroso's phylogenetic ideas have mostly, and rightly, been relegated to the garbage bins of quack science but the underlying idea that criminalism has underlying causes has evolved to include the social sciences of today. His reasoning as to what those causes were is wrong, but he paved the way for systematic and holistic ways of looking at society, which has led to beneficial reforms. The irony is that during his time his terribly problematic ideas were celebrated, and he was panned for allowing for the reality of ghosts. While we may have reclaimed more ground in the past century plus, it should be kept in mind that we are still very much surrounded by the inexplicable- and that the authority of today stands a good chance of looking foolish in the future.

Palladino herself has gone down in history as a fraud. By Houdini's account, the unassuming Italian ghost conjuror who fooled the greatest scientists in Europe was revealed as a mountebank by the magicians in America. Houdini, the great debunker of mediums, declared that all the laboratory investigations of her powers were worthless, as she was allowed to dictate the settings. He could explain the parlor tricks, and he did give her credit as the greatest deceiver of them all for her inventiveness. He noted that Hereward Carrington, the man who brought Eusapia to New York, even admitted that she would invariably resort to magic tricks if not watched carefully. He claimed she did this as a way of avoiding the strain of the "real" phenomena. Houdini had his own biases; he was on a crusade of sorts to discredit fraudulent spirit mediums. Carrington was actively profiting off of Palladino's American tour. As for Eusapia herself, who can say what her motivations were or what, if any, of her powers were genuine? Assuming Cheiro's account was true, how would Houdini explain that? The skills attributed to her range from pedestrian prestidigitation to the startlingly impressive, and occasionally downright bizarre as in the chilly forehead breeze. They culminate in a portrait of a woman, reflecting the contradictions within the cultural and scientific milieu of the era. In many ways, things haven't changed.

The error of hubris is all-pervasive in any era. Instead of thinking in terms of being surrounded by the inexplicable, as Huxley did, we often proceed as though we know most things and that there's only a handful of mysteries out there to solve. We really don't have authorities to whom we can appeal on the subject of life after death- it's more a matter of faith. Likewise, UFOs represent a challenge to preconceived notions about how the rest of reality, which we tend to take for granted, works. Opening ones' self to the myriad possibilities, and the weirdest possible scenarios- and hell, even the impossible ones- may not get us more ground, but on the other hand, it just might. We must realize our institutions, and models for the nature of reality, are imperfect and incomplete. There are other dimensions, other ways of contextualizing the anomalous and bizarre. Any sleight-of-hand trickster can tell you that point of view is crucial to pulling off a trick- and as you navigate the minefield, you must always be aware of the illusions around you. Step softly, ask questions, and above all stay curious. Certainty often leads to trouble.

There has been a lot of talk with Michelle Obama planning with the Clintons on their flight to Carter's funeral. It appears the DNC passed a "New Rule" on the party appointing a candidate to bypass that Bernie Sanders / People's Choice problem they had a few years ago.

There's no mystery here.

There's no suspense. 

They already revealed their cards, about what they're going to do.

Its not going to be a Trump vs Biden rematch.

At the DNC in Chicago next August, they are giving the nomination to JOE BIDEN.

Then, shortly after the DNC is over in Chicago, for HEALTH REASONS, Biden will RESIGN THE NOMINATION.  Not the PRESIDENCY.  The **NOMINATION**.

This will allow the DNC to, according to a NEW RULE THEY JUST ADOPTED RECENTLY to appoint a REPLACEMENT.

Got that?

When Biden resigns, the Democrat leaders are gonna HANDPICK his replacement.  They already know who its going to be. 

No delegate vote.  No new convention.  The deal's already been done. 

The entire Dem primary season next year year is a freaking useless joke. 

]An exercise in futility. 

A charade, if you will. 

Dem voters will NOT be picking who is going to be on the Dem ballot for President in 2024.

That's already been decided behind the scenes.

Every fucking thing in the Democrat Party is fucking rigged.

All of it.

Roadrunner-M can be armed with a variety of different weapons payloads optimized for different threats. Some allow for Roadrunner to come back after executing an attack. Others sacrifice the air vehicle, delivering a massive punch in the process.

Quote:Military combat drones keep getting better, cheaper and more dangerous. Unmanned aircraft are now affordable enough for terrorist groups such as Islamic State to procure large quantities of them. Meanwhile, the best counter systems cost many millions of dollars to deploy and use. It’s an out-of-whack equation that military analysts say will likely become only more troubling over time, in terms of both costs and the threats to the safety of ground troops.

Anduril Industries Inc., a startup in Southern California fashioning itself as a new-age defense technology and weapons maker, has created a product dubbed Roadrunner that it bills as an answer to the US’s rising drone threat. Developed in secret over the past two years, a Roadrunner is akin to a mini, autonomous fighter jet. Powered by two turbines and equipped with a warhead, it takes off vertically like a rocket and then turns to fly at hundreds of miles per hour like a plane toward its target. And, in a first for this type of weapon, a Roadrunner can return home, land and be reused when it doesn’t engage a target in the air.

Although Anduril declined to disclose a price, it says each Roadrunner will cost in the “low six figures.” A Patriot missile—the US military’s higher-end drone deterrent—can fetch four times that amount. The company, based in Costa Mesa, California, has set up a new factory line for manufacturing and expects the cost of each Roadrunner to drop as it ramps up production and improves underlying technology. “It’s radically different than anything people have been doing,” says Palmer Luckey, a co-founder of Anduril.

The US currently has about 3,500 troops in Iraq and Syria, and drones launched by Islamic State and Iran-backed militias are a growing threat. American forces in those two countries were hit by 78 drone attacks from the start of 2021 to March 2023. In just the last few weeks, there have been more than 55 attacks. The bombings have resulted in dozens of wounded soldiers, including at least 45 with traumatic brain injuries, according to news reports and military analysts. “We are definitely seeing a spike in attacks,” says Zachary Kallenborn, a weapons innovation analyst at George Mason University. (Spokespeople from the US Central Command didn’t respond to requests for comment.)

Combat drones have improved in part because of advances in the consumer market. Ukraine is producing as many as 10,000 quadcopter drones per month using consumer electronics parts, some with bombs duct-taped to their underbelly. Even these crudely cobbled-together drones are able to tap GPS satellites to perform precise maneuvers and work together in groups. “They are cheap, reliable, quiet and really difficult to identify,” says a US service member with battlefield experience in Iraq and elsewhere, who requested anonymity because of military sensitivity. “With their artificial intelligence software, they can swarm together and identify targets. It’s pretty incredible.”

Many of the recent attacks in Iraq and Syria are the result of more sophisticated fixed-wing drones. In both countries, militias are beginning to strike with multiple drones at once, a technique known as a swarm assault. “Nobody has had the quantity of vehicles or the technology to orchestrate the swarm attacks, but that’s all changing,” Luckey says. “That’s obviously what the future is.”

US troops have a variety of means at their disposal to counter drone attacks, including shooting down the aircraft with rifles and technology that disrupts the communications and navigation systems on the drones. To take out fixed-wing drones in the Middle East, troops have also relied on an unmanned aircraft system called Coyote, made by RTX Corp. [Raytheon Technologies], and larger Patriot missiles. These weapons, however, are much more expensive than the aircraft they’re targeting. “The cost equation is perhaps the hardest part of countering drones,” Kallenborn says. “A Patriot missile can cost $4 million a shot, whereas an Iranian drone might only cost $10,000 or less. Shooting the drone down might be a tactical success, but over time, the costs are high and may drain stocks needed for more significant missile and aircraft threats.”

Since its founding in 2017, Anduril has argued that it’s a new type of defense contractor. Instead of taking orders upfront from the US Department of Defense to fund development of products, Anduril has raised money from venture capitalists, including Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund, that it uses to build weapons it predicts the military will want. Its first product was an automated security tower designed for the US border in the early days of Donald Trump’s presidency. The company then began shipping early counter-drone aircraft to the US and UK militaries in 2019.

The US government has bought various Anduril products for use on the US border and in Ukraine and elsewhere; to date the company has manufactured hundreds of hardware systems and remains much smaller than major military contractors such as RTX’s Raytheon. Thomas Karako, a senior fellow and director of the Missile Defense Project at the Center for Strategic & International Studies in Washington, says Anduril still needs to prove its manufacturing chops and deal with the practical details of getting troops accustomed to its new weapons. “I would caution against the idea that there’s a quick fix here or some new product that can make all your problems go away,” he says. “This stuff is hard.”

Anduril started work two years ago on the Roadrunner, a Looney Tunes-inspired dig at Raytheon’s Coyote, because it said the US would need a lower-cost, more nimble way to combat swarms. The tiny fighter jet has a carbon-fiber body and onboard electronics that let it track objects and perform maneuvers that’d be too dangerous for a human-piloted plane. One of its main advantages is that it can be reused, which makes it easier to launch at the first sign of an unknown object. “If you see a threat, you can launch multiple Roadrunners to go out to do a closer inspection of that threat and be loitering in case they’re needed,” says Christian Brose, the chief strategy officer at Anduril. “You can recall them, land them, refuel them and reuse them, so, essentially, you can launch without regret.”

In a test conducted in November at a site known as Jackass Flats in the mountainous desert surroundings of the Nevada National Security Site, Anduril set up a Roadrunner launch. One of the company’s long-range sentry towers sat perched on a small hill and used its radar and other sensors to scan the sky, while a test pilot stood in front of a laptop screen running Anduril software.

To start the test, Anduril sent a fixed-wing drone into the air from a runway behind its compound. The sentry tower quickly detected the aircraft and fed information about its speed and trajectory into the company’s Lattice software. The test pilot received imagery of the drone and then manually marked it as a hostile threat. In an instant, the lid of the Roadrunner launch container opened, the turbines fired up and the craft zipped into the air. It took off toward the target and then began feeding its own sensor data and imagery into Lattice. As the Roadrunner closed in on the target, the test pilot gave a final command to destroy the fixed-wing craft, and, seconds later, the Lattice software displayed information showing that it had been a successful attack.

For the purposes of this demonstration, Anduril used proximity sensors to confirm that it would have taken out the target and didn’t actually blow up the fixed-wing craft. If it had, the Roadrunner wouldn’t have been able to do what it did next: It turned to fly back toward the Anduril compound, shifted into a vertical position and fired its thrusters toward the ground as landing legs kicked out from its side. During a maneuver lasting about a minute, the machine got ever closer to the ground before finally settling gently on a small concrete pad in a fashion very similar to a Space Exploration Technologies Corp. rocket. A future version of the Roadrunner will be able to land even after destroying a target, Luckey says.

The whole idea, as Anduril sees it, is to allow a single operator to manage dozens or more Roadrunners in the field with Lattice providing a full view of the surroundings, targets and weapons available. If a drone swarm approaches a base, Lattice will quickly see and identify all the drones, and, with a couple of clicks, the operator can send Roadrunners off to combat the threat. This is a major change from many of the other counter-drone weapons that require about a dozen people to operate them. Anduril says it’s not allowed to say which branch of the military has ordered Roadrunners, but the weapon will be in the field early next year, Brose says.

Anduril’s full arsenal of products includes autonomous submarines, autonomous fighter jets and loitering munitions. The company expects that some of the key components it developed for the Roadrunner, such as the aircraft’s turbines and motors, will soon go into other products. “I’m not aware of anyone ever building a faster starting engine or a motor that has this much power in such a small package,” says co-founder Luckey. “We’ve got five products coming designed around this exact same engine.”

Anduril has raised $2.7 billion to date and is valued at almost $10 billion. Brose acknowledged that Anduril has yet to fully prove its manufacturing mettle but argued that starting from scratch gives the company an edge over traditional contractors that have older weapons and factories they must support. “We’re not trying to retrain an old workforce in new methods or trying to retrofit something,” Brose says. “We are building new facilities, new factories, new manufacturing lines, and I think that is a very liberating position to be in.”

Venezuela borders a small obscure country called Guyana.
Guyana has found oil.
Venezuela once owned much of Guyana and now wants it back.
V's President Maduro is running a referendum on re-conquest

Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro has thrown the full weight of his government into the effort, using patriotic rhetoric to try to summon voters to the polls to answer five questions over the territory, including whether current and future area residents should be granted Venezuelan citizenship.

Guyana sees the referendum as a case of annexation and asked the International Court of Justice on Nov. 14 to halt parts of the vote. The court has not issued a decision, but even if it rules against Venezuela, Maduro’s government intends to hold the election Sunday.


Brazil is manning their border.  just in case.

https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/b...023-11-29/
Brazil "has intensified defensive actions" along its northern border as it monitors a territorial dispute between its neighbors, Guyana and Venezuela, the country's defense ministry said on Wednesday.
Brazil's push to move more military resources north comes amid rising tensions between Venezuela and Guayana over an oil-rich region known as the "Esequiba," which constitutes over two thirds of Guyana's total land mass.

here's hoping nobody starts shooting.
and I hope Maduro keeps his hands off his neighbor.
this is the sort of aggression the UN is supposed to help prevent.  time for them to justify themselves some.
