“”Benny has 5 million followers on YouTube and and even more on Rumble”””
And yet I have no idea who he is. I am thankful I don’t spend my days listening to kooks.
FR seems to know who he is. Several pieces from him are posted here every day
The Internet is filled with these “kooks”—many thousands, perhaps even tens of thousands of them.
They have combined viewers and listeners of probably more than one hundred million per day every day—that exceed the wildest dreams of network television in the old days.
In fact they were critical in getting President Trump elected.
They have backed themselves into a corner over this.
I think Trump is protecting Israel, as Epstein was suggested to be Mossad.
I also think Trump firmly believes that he can wave his hand and tell his “followers” to forget about the whole thing. He is wrong.
This process has been so ham-fisted that it could prove to be a real embarrassment.
I honestly think we will hear about Alien tech before we find out about Epstein.
I don’t know how I have survived this long without knowing who he is.
The best summary of how bad this is—in one place—is this Compost article—they would make perfect Democrat 2026 campaign ads:

“June 2, 2024
Fox & Friends co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy: “Would you declassify the Epstein files?”
Donald Trump: “Yeah, yeah, I would. I guess I would. I think that less so, because you don’t know — You don’t want to effect people’s lives if there’s phony stuff in there, because there’s a lot of phony stuff in that whole world.”
Sept. 3, 2024
(Donald) Trump, to podcast host Lex Fridman: “Yeah, I’d certainly take a look at it. … Yeah, I’d be inclined to the do the Epstein, I’d have no problem with it.”
Oct. 22, 2024
Then-Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) to podcast host Theo Von: “Seriously, we need to release the Epstein list. That is an important thing.”
Jan. 30, 2025
Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tennessee): “So, will you work with me on this issue so we know who worked with Jeffrey Epstein in building these sex trafficking rings?
Kash Patel, FBI director nominee: “Absolutely senator.”
...Feb. 21, 2025
Fox News host John Roberts: “[You said recently that] DOJ may be releasing the list of Jeffrey Epstein’s clients? Will that really happen?
Attorney General Pam Bondi: “It is sitting on my desk right now, to review.”
March 1, 2025
Fox News host Mark Levin: “So once all that’s gathered you’re just going to put it out in the public, with the obvious necessary redactions … but for the perpetrators I assume that we’ll see those names, yes?
Bondi: “Well, certainly, nothing can be withheld on that. …”
March 11, 2025
Habba, to media personality Benny Johnson: “I personally have checked in. They are going through it. You have to be patient. Because when you are wanting to prosecute and actually do something with the information that you have, you have to make sure that you save the integrity of the investigation so that we can bring these people to justice, so that we can hold grand juries, so that we can do certain things.”
May 28, 2025
Patel to Fox News host Bret Baier: “I’m not going to withhold information from the American public, ever. … We are diligently working on that, and it takes time to go through years of investigations, years of political maneuvering, and years of cover-up.”
June 6, 2025
Rogan: “The narrative has always been that there’s video. Now, where’s the chain of custody? Is there evidence that there’s video? Is there evidence that it was moved around? Stored? Protected from people looking at it?”
Patel: “You’re going to get all that information. Like, that’s literally what we’re putting together. And we’re going to give you every single thing we have and can. And that’s the whole point. … Now we’re figuring out how to put it out.”
Feb. 27, 2025
Journalist Piers Morgan: “Do you think that by releasing information from these files we are likely to see criminal actions being taken?”
Alina Habba, counsel to the president: “Absolutely. I think it would be negligent for us not to. You have to hold individuals who are indeed rapists, accountable. We have to have them tried, in my opinion.”
People who spend their days listening to these kooks are divided into two groups. The Republicans will find podcasters that say what they want to hear. The democrats will find podcasters that say what they want to hear. The winners are the kooks who make a lot of money from it.
I don’t listen to the political podcasters/videocasters as a rule—but many many millions of Americans do.
Their cumulative influence is off the charts—whether we like it or not.
We have the advantage—the most Republican and Republican leaning viewers and the most views by far.
They were the key to improving our support among young people in 2024.
Just one other detail—most of these have replaced network prime time or dinner time television for their viewers/listeners. They tend to “live stream” during evening hours.
Folks who miss the live broadcasts can watch/listen on their own schedule—at their convenience.
Yes.
Republicans will find one they agree with to validate their beliefs.
Democrats will find one they agree with to validate their beliefs.
PDJT, not Bondi, is in charge of law enforcement.
“ Easy to accept there was no blackmail. Think about it - why would a billionaire with houses all over the world and his own private island risk it all to shake his guests down for money? It makes no sense.” He didn’t have to risk anything. He just passed this incriminating information along to those who might find it very useful.
“ That the left would be Screaming to release everything and that Trump is now a proven liar. Or attacking him on this in different ways. BUT... They’re not. WHY?” The answer appears to be self evident: because perhaps many of these same demoncrats may be on that list?
Epstein is the biggest problem facing this country. S/
