WORLD NEWS AND COMMENTARY 🌍

🪳🪳🪳

See? What did I tell you? Yesterday, the Daily Mail ran a tantalizing story headlined, “Revealed: 100 new Epstein emails ‘that could destroy’ Prince Andrew.” The infection is spreading.

Prince Andrew’s troubles stemming from his “close friendship” with Jeffrey Epstein have spanned more than a decade. They have sparked intense public scrutiny, staggering legal settlements, and started the slow-motion collapse of his royal and public roles.

But, cockroach-like, against all odds, the Prince has somehow managed to cling to power.

For example, Prince Andrew has never been stripped of his titles, Prince, or Duke of York. He still remains “his royal highness,” though he’s laid off swanking that particular honorarium around as much as he used to. For some reason.

But the Duke might be in deep doo-doo. “Multiple well-placed sources,” the Mail reported, “have revealed that potentially ‘incriminating’ emails between the Duke of York and the convicted paedophile are contained in hundreds of thousands of documents currently being reviewed by the US Congress before they are made public.”

Uh-oh.

One “well-placed” source told the Mail, “If you think what’s happened to Peter Mandelson is bad, then you have no idea what will happen when the Andrew emails are released. They are embarrassing and incriminating, and he could be destroyed.”

Another source suggested that, by combining Andrew’s buddy-buddy emails with Epstein’s sex-trafficking emails, a darker connection may emerge. “There are potentially incriminating emails between Andrew, Epstein, and Maxwell which haven’t come out yet,” the source said. “Andrew was in regular contact with Maxwell by email, and Epstein used email to coordinate the trafficking of his victims. If I were Andrew, I’d be very worried.”

Yet another source said flatly, “Andrew is mistaken if he thinks this matter is going away.”

If true, “incriminating emails” against Prince Andrew could have devastating implications— not just for him, but also for the standing, legitimacy, and stability of the Royal Family itself. The monarchy’s constitutional role is now largely symbolic, and it relies on steadily shrinking public support. A large-scale scandal could spark renewed calls for republicanism, debates over funding the royals, and even flare into a broad referendum on their continuing future in British life.

And once again: who are these sources? I asked that question yesterday in reference to this week’s Bloomberg blockbuster revelation of 18,000 new Epstein emails. Someone is trickling this stuff out. And whoever it is, they seem to be trickling it first toward the British.

Since we are in the Sunday subscriber roundup, I’ll speculate. It seems to me that the only possible leak source that makes any sense is the Republican-led House Oversight Committee, which has access to the DOJ material. And if so, the selection of the British as targets is telling, and further suggests that Trump himself is involved.

As early as 2019, Trump has publicly accused the British of having a key role in the RussiaGate scandal that undermined his first administration. Consider this ‘explosive’ paragraph from the UK Independent, published in March, 2019:

If I’m right, Trump isn’t just ‘swiping’ anymore. This week, Trump undermined the UK’s political government with the strategic leaks against Lord Mandelson, and in doing so, destabilized the entire Starmer regime. Next week, if this new tease is true, the same thing could happen to the UK’s second pillar, its monarchical government, leaving the nation’s entire institutional architecture exposed, maybe more so than at any point in a century.

Could the British Empire collapse under the weight of Jeffrey Epstein’s massage table?

Call it whatever you like, FAFO or a reckoning, this week’s leaks align with Trump’s long-standing (and justified) animus toward the British. I believe he’s tearing down a globalist infrastructure that —so far— has managed to survive the scandal that began with Epstein’s arrest by Trump’s DOJ in 2019.

🪳 The once-survivable Epstein scandal now appears to have become the frontline weapon in a transatlantic institutional struggle. And to think, it only became possible because Trump called Epstein a “hoax.” The resulting partisan “arms race” over radical openness —the result of a single spoken word— eviscerated the traditional bipartisan instinct to protect state secrets, elite reputations, and diplomatic relationships— leaving everyone exposed, including establishment Democrats and their institutional allies in places like Britain.

Conservatives have long called for opening the Epstein files. Thanks to one word (“hoax”), Democrat influencers are now also on board. Yesterday on BlueSky, for example, Democrat strategist Jon Cooper used Charlie Kirk to call for more Epstein disclosure:

Well, now it’s happening. Just not the way the Democrats wanted. Since all the Epstein action is currently in Great Britain, I’m not sure liberals even realize it’s happening yet. They soon will, though.

🔥🔥🔥

In the wake of tragedy, astonishing signs of hope are blooming in the most unexpected places. The New York Times ran another passive-aggressive call for unity yesterday, headlined, “Wrestling Over Charlie Kirk’s Legacy and the Divide in America.” While high-mindedly calling for unity and grace in a time of grief and angst over Kirk’s assassination, the Times proved unable to find a single person to say anything nice about one of the most gracious political figures in modern American discourse. That’s the tell. Those actually quoted for the story universally pointed out something to dislike about the slain debater. The Times can eat a bag of sticks.

In any event, the story’s comments section was not completely in accord. Sure, there were plenty of the usual liberal calls for violence disguised as virtue-signaling, but by my own informal estimate, about a fifth looked like this:

The most remarkable part of this comment was the ’25 recommend’ at the bottom. That means 25 New York Times readers agreed with Clint’s sentiment— it might not be OnlyFans numbers, but it’s still more than a handful. Even more remarkable was a steady stream of X posts yesterday along these lines:

And countless numbers of posts like these:

This kind of religious revival could not have been predicted. Charlie Kirk was an unapologetic Christian, but he was not faith-forward. He didn’t proselytize or lead with his religious beliefs. He was happy to talk about it, but his campus ministry focused on social issues and common sense.

So no one could have predicted that Charlie Kirk’s personal religious beliefs would have such a profound spiritual effect after he died.

Maybe we should not be surprised. After all, in John 12:24, Jesus said, “I assure you that unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it can only be a single seed. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.”

🔥 Also surprising was the entire world’s response. I am not exaggerating; it has become a global phenomenon. Reuters, Friday:

“Kirk wasn’t a household name outside the United States,” Reuters correctly observed. But he is now. From South Africa to South America, from Seoul to Budapest, from Sydney to Singapore, Charlie Kirk vigils organically arose across Planet Earth.

Think of it. People are literally dreaming of Charlie Kirk. All over the world, people are grieving over his killing as though he were a personal friend. The response is beyond political; it has moved into the paranormal realms of the psychosocial and the spiritual— defying the scope of scientific or political explanation.

What we are witnessing is a powerful instance of collective consciousness— moving simultaneously through political, social, psychological, and spiritual domains, at times manifesting phenomena (like mass dreaming and spiritual awakenings) that challenge conventional categories of understanding.

This story is a moving target. In the rush of events, one struggles to describe this kind of historic phenomenon while it is unfolding, not just before your author, but to your author as well.

But for today, we can see emerging one awe-inspiring fact: While the lastingimpact remains to be seen, so far, Charlie Kirk’s assassination has already moved into a special category reserved for the most influential figures in human history. People like JFK, Martin Luther King, Mahatma Gandhi, and Julius Caesar.

And the ripples are still spreading, outward and outward, in minds and hearts, countries and nations, boardrooms and bedrooms, playgrounds and podiums. A billion grains of wheat have been loosed into the whirlwind, and there’s no going back now.

Bwahahaha! Put your francs where your big fat mouths are, frogs. Yesterday, CNN ran a story headlined, “Trump issues an ultimatum for NATO countries on Russia sanctions.” It was glorious, and of course, it appeared on social media. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

It was a moment of reckoning. He basically called them chickens. “As you know,” the President began, “NATO’S commitment to WIN has been far less than 100%, and the purchase of Russian Oil, by some, has been shocking! It greatly weakens your negotiating position, and bargaining power, over Russia. Anyway, I am ready to ‘go’ when you are. Just say when?”

“If not,” he added, digging the knife in, “you are just wasting my time.”

To fully appreciate the tightening wringer in which the Europeans’ pierced nipples are now being twisted, there are two background facts you should know. First, for months, Zelensky and his European pets have been yammering nonstop at President Trump to levy “bone-crushing” tariffs on Russia and anybody who buys oil from Putin. Second, and hilariously, Brussels itself simply cannot afford to stop buying cheap Russian oil, and it definitely cannot afford to start a tariff war with China and India— even though that is exactly what they’ve insisted that the United States do.

However much you think the US is dependent on China, the situation is far worse in Europe. While we’ve hollowed out our manufacturing sector, the Europeans have nearly deleted theirs. Somehow, the Europeans implicitly expected the US to unfairly bear the entire burden of “bone-crushing” tariffs.

For months, Trump has kept his powder dry, waiting and enduring who knows how many painful phone calls and Zoom meetings, listening politely while the Europeans kept escalating the dumbest idea since Napoleon suggested battling the British at Waterloo, and all without realizing the logical endpoint of their own arguments.

Yesterday, President Trump sprang the trap.

Hilariously, CNN drolly reported, “European officials said that new tariffs on China or India were unlikely, since Europeans have generally been more cautious in trade wars, in particular with China.” Oh, now they’re cautious.World War Three brinkmanship is dandy, so long as someone else’spocketbook pays for it.

Put simply, their hindquarters are now in a crack. The US has previously offered to let Europe buy any new weapons it wants to provide to Ukraine. They haven’t seem too enthusiastic about that idea. So the military option is moribund. And yesterday, Trump told them the only way “bone-crushing” tariffs will happen is if they also join the economic fight, and they aren’t will to do that, either.

So, now what? Meanwhile, the Russians continue beating Ukraine senseless. Ukraine is like an angry drunk who keeps stumbling back up, ever more bloodied and bruised, and insisting on another round of fighting.

We seem to be quickly approaching a “fish or cut bait” moment for the Proxy War. Somehow, Trump has managed to extricate the United States while making it the Europeans’ fault. Trump just said he is “ready to go.” It’s Europe’s move.

On Friday, the Washington Post ran an alarmed story headlined, “Trump officials to link covid shots to child deaths, alarming career scientists.” Oh wait— did you think the career scientists were alarmed to find out that kids had died from the “safe and effective” shots? Sorry. No. They were alarmed about the link.

“Trump health officials,” WaPo reported, “plan to link coronavirus vaccines to the deaths of 25 children as they consider limiting which Americans should get the shots and whether they are free.” It should have said, at least 25 children. Later, WaPo admitted, “that number, the staff said, was probably an undercount.”

According to WaPo, this “plan” alarms some “career scientists,” not because the shots killed kids, but because saying so might create hesitancy. Dead kids, no problem. Pharma stock prices? Big Problem. Marketwatch, Friday:

WaPo pretended like the pediatric deaths remain a baffling mystery, but the market knows.

The story also reported that FDA Commissioner Marty Makary confirmed the agency is currently investigating all the reported deaths. So, the “concerns” about the reliability of VAERS —the FDA’s vaccine injury tracking system— are nonsense. We’ll soon know either way. Well, the article sternly warned that it will still require “months to complete” the reviews. But come on. How long could it really take a dedicated team to review 25 cases?

Give me a break.

Now let’s dissect the journalistic hot garbage that the Washington Post served up as news.

Hilariously, despite citing them in the headline, the WaPo never named a single “career scientist” who was alarmed. It didn’t specify how many there were. It could be just two. It never even quoted a single career scientist; rather, the paper just assumed readers would be satisfied by WaPo’s generalizations and summaries of their “concerns.” It never defined what it meant by “career scientist”— meaning, it could just be two 25-year-olds working at the National Weather Service. And it did not say whether other“career scientists” hold different views.

In other words, the article was perfectly useless, apart from leaking the deadly link itself. Always read critically.

The bottom line is that HHS is nowhere near finished with the covid jabs. So be patient. Let the men work.

Have a Blessed Sunday! Get yourself back here tomorrow morning, for a fresh roundup of essential news and commentary. As always, please accept my profound gratitude for your continuing loyal support.
