Oh, a whole lot of bargaining went on, for sure. Many meetings and even dinners with Epstein. These things are never truly “clean.”

And, yes, Trump’s name, along with countless movers’ and shakers’ appeared if only by way of the flight logs.

Isn’t pritzzy boy in violation of Federal Law by aidding and abetting?

It was not as clean as Acosta seems to indicate. A great deal of the plea negotiations were done through the US Attys office and not the PB prosecutors office. The drafting of the plea agreement had to be reworked and all that was done due to Fed laws. The plea hearing itself was in the County system specifically for the local jail opportunity/work release issues, and possibly to avoid victim statements at sentencing. And, yes people’s names like Trump, Clinton and Randy Andy were well known to have surfaced in the investigation although there was no causal link of bad behavior. Certainly Trump was not placed in a bad light other than typical rumormongering by press and locals.

Did he say that from Acosta street?

That’s not the way AI chatbots work.

They aren’t programmed with answers and don’t actually “see” words. They convert language into numbers and learn patterns from vast amounts of converted text, modeling how these numerical “word values” relate rather than truly understanding them.

They’re trained by feeding them enormous datasets, and when connected to the internet, they can also search current information—combining learned patterns with real-time data to generate new, relevant responses on the fly.

Russia shot down their own Su-30 while repelling a Ukrainian drone attack in Crimea.

Martha from FOX was all giggly and flirty with him a couple days ago.

From a search:

As the U.S. Attorney for Florida, Alex Acosta approved a plea deal in 2008 that allowed Jeffrey Epstein to plead guilty to state charges and avoid federal ones. While Acosta did not directly grant Epstein work release, the lenient deal ultimately resulted in the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office approving the work release program that allowed Epstein to leave jail most days.

"In April 2025, governments provisionally agreed the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Net-Zero Framework (NZF), which would penalise high-emitting ships around the world and use the money to fund the transition to cleaner vessels and fuels."

A Triple-E container ship needs about 65 MW of power for propulsion and climate controlled containers.

Small modular nuclear reactors output 20-300 megawatts.

They have zero carbon emissions, and don't require a shore based power supply to cut dockside emissions.

They don't require massive cargo space eating fuel tanks, and won't spill Bunker Charlie or MDF in a collision.

Just sayin'...

“We know that they are lying, they know that they are lying, they even know that we know they are lying, we also know that they know we know they are lying too, they of course know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying too as well, but they are still lying. In our country, the lie has become not just moral category, but the pillar industry of this country.”

Why don’t you direct your remark to the FReeper who posted the topic?

Why don’t you seek answers from the Bible and prayer.

You are asking a computet geek that programmed this crap. Worshipping his neckbeard.

OK, today I remembered to add the ping list :)

Globalism / Great Reset –

US-led alliance wins a year’s delay in adoption of green shipping deal

The IMO’s Net-Zero Framework will be up for approval again in October 2026, after the US and Saudi Arabia persuaded countries not to vote on it as planned

Joe Lo News editor

…
In April 2025, governments provisionally agreed the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Net-Zero Framework (NZF), which would penalise high-emitting ships around the world and use the money to fund the transition to cleaner vessels and fuels.
…
The NZF was scheduled to set emissions reduction targets for ships starting in 2028. But this – and the rest of the framework’s timeline – have now been plunged into doubt. Although some technical work can continue, political progress will have to wait until October 2026 when delegates will next take up the issue of whether to adopt the NZF.

Why a deferral rather than a cancellation?

Green obsessed member states and UN officials are likely still clinging to the hope they can shift the political landscape in favour of supporting this new tax on prosperity.

https://wattsupwiththat.com/2025/10/17/winning-global-shipping-carbon-tax-one-year-deferral/

OBSERVATION - They will never give up their goals and are very willing to play a long game to get what they want, just like the delays in the WHO’s pandemic ‘treaty’, which only moved incrementally forward this year. For them, shifting the political landscape means finding some way to neuter Trump and the US will not be be under such a tax scam.

UPCOMING -
- “No Kings 2.0”, 18 October 2025

Weekend forecast - There is increasing potential for varying levels of violence and vandalism associated with tomorrow’s NK 2.0 event. This time around there seem to be more calls for violence - see below.

Democrats trying to tie into the current shut down to gain attendance. The organizers of the “No Kings” protests say that gatherings will take place at more than 2,500 locations around the US.

NK 2.0 may spill over into anti-ICE direct actions in the usual places.

Overall, conditions are more unstable than in previous weekends.

***
Governors in Texas and Virginia have activated their state’s National Guard troops, however it is unclear how visible the military presence will be.

OBSERVATION - In TX, potential threats of Antifa related violence is one reason for activation. Most likely area would be Austin, a hotbed of violent liberal activity.

***
Antifa have been posting flyers around the ICE facility in Portland calling for their violent militants to embed within the “No Kings” protest and agitate for violence. The call for that direct action originates on the Antifa online collective, Crimethinc.

George Soros’ foundations are funding the “No Kings” protests that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and tens of thousands of protesters will be participating in on Saturday.

Soros, a billionaire investor and notorious Democratic Party donor, is founder of the Open Society Foundations.

In 2023, the foundation, through the Open Society Action Fund, issued a two-year grant of $3 million to the Indivisible organization. The grant was “to support the grantee’s social welfare activities,” according to the Open Society Foundation’s website.

The Democratic Party’s dark-money NGO network, bankrolled by left-wing billionaires, is reportedly preparing to activate a coordinated, color-revolution-style mobilization across the U.S. this weekend - a replay of failed agitation attempts seen earlier this year targeting President Trump and Elon Musk. The operation, marketed under the “No Kings” banner and portrayed publicly as a grassroots movement, in reality functions as a professionalized protest-industrial complex. Its composition includes a blend of paid activists, white boomers suffering from Stage 4 Trump Derangement Syndrome, and a smaller contingent of organic, unhinged leftists who recite MSNBC talking points by heart.

Drilling down into the dark-money network funding No Kings are investigative researchers Peter Schweizer and Seamus Bruner of the Government Accountability Institute. Their new bombshell report exposes how the protest-industrial complex, dubbed “Riot, Inc.,” is, in their words, “FUELED BY BILLIONAIRES.”

“We traced $294,487,641 to the official No Kings 2.0 partners & organizers...all funneled through the same “Riot Inc.” dark-money networks: Arabella network $79.7M+ Soros network $72.1M+ Ford network $51.7M+, Tides $45.5M+, Rockefeller $28.6M+, and Buffett $16.6M+,” Bruner wrote on X.

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/fueled-billionaires-no-kings-prepares-color-revolution-style-mobilization-against-trump

OBSERVATION - The big buck communistic billionaires who’ve been funding these ‘protests’ has been pretty well known, and without their support, this ‘grass roots’ movement would never have gotten off the ground.

Fired CNN host Don Lemon argued that “black people and brown people” need to start carrying guns in the event that they’re swept up in an ICE raid - and indicated that it’s his belief that this is what the Founding Fathers had in mind when they crafted the Amendment.

Lemon made the comment on “The Left Hook with Wajahat Ali,” where he claimed that he was not “condoning or promoting violence” but that he was tired of “the niceties” while ICE agents were “rounding [people] up off the street without due process” and “sending them off to a gulag.”

“If you believe in the Second Amendment, if you believe in the Constitution, Black people, Brown people of all stripes, whether you’re an Indian American or a Mexican American or whoever you are, go out in your place where you live and get a gun legally. Get a license to carry legally,” Lemon said. “Because when you have people knocking on your door and taking you away without due process as a citizen, isn’t that what the Second Amendment was written for?”

“Nobody is illegal,” Lemon argued, pretending to not understand that being an “illegal” alien pertains to their immigration status, not their status as a human being. “It is a misdemeanor to cross the border.”

https://silverloch.com/crazy-don-lemon-now-calling-on-people-to-arm-themselves-against-ice

OBSERVATION - Lemon is a wash out, but is still dangerous as the extremists of the left still follow him. He is speaking what they already want and plan to do. As such he is a useful idiot.

More Incitement (Stoicastric violence?)
Democrat governor who called Republicans “Nazis” and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) “Gestapo” accused the White House of hate speech Thursday.

Responding to a social media post of comments by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) accused the administration of inciting hate:

“The White House says outrageous things to make you hate your neighbor.
“Your neighbor isn’t the problem. The White House is.”

Department for Homeland Security Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement that Walz’s “Gestapo” comments were “sickening,” and claimed similar rhetoric and demonization of ICE officers has led to a 413% increase in assaults on immigration officers.

In February, Gov. Walz was caught on camera accusing Republicans of being “fascists and Nazis” who are “stealing” the U.S.:

“I see the pundits on TV — ‘What’s wrong with the Democratic Party?’ What’s wrong is our country is being stolen by fascists and Nazis.”

Gov. Walz refused to apologize for the remark.

https://newsbusters.org/blogs/cnsnews/craig-bannister/2025/10/17/gov-tim-walz-gop-are-nazis-who-say-divisive-things-ice

OBSERVATION - Incitement to violence as the leftists are trying to normalize the characterization of their opponents as a group seen to be inhuman, thus justifying any violence directed against them.

Assassination culture.

That is where the Democratic Party is today.

Yet another example comes from Winnebago County, Wisconsin. The OshKosh Democrats put up a booth at the local farmer’s market, and among the things they handed out were bracelets with “Is he dead yet?” printed on them.

(NYPost) Wisconsin Democrats were tossed from a farmers market after a vile volunteer handed out “Is he dead yet?” bracelets — including to a young child — in an apparent reference to President Trump.
The Winnebago County Democratic Party will no longer host a table at the Oshkosh Farmers Market as incendiary rhetoric against Trump and his allies has ramped up since the Republican returned to the White House this year.
The latest instance of menacing words came when a volunteer handed out the hateful bracelet to an 8-year-old child, who then showed it to their mother on Sunday, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.

https://hotair.com/david-strom/2025/10/17/democratic-party-hands-out-is-he-dead-yet-bracelets-in-wisconsin-n3807956

OBSERVATION - More attempts to normalize violence directed against Trump and his supporters.

Economy- Threat Level - WATCH - as of April 4, 2025

The U.S. budget deficit edged lower for 2025 as record-setting tariff collections helped offset what also were unprecedented numbers for payments on the spiraling national debt.
The red ink would have been worse had it not been for a massive surge in customs duties and a September surplus of $198 billion that also set a record for the month.

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/16/us-budget-deficit-lower-in-2025-tariffs-debt-payments-both-at-records.html

OBSERVATION - We’ve not seen tariffs of this magnitude in our lifetimes, therefore, the impacts are hard to predict. They have put the brakes on the deficit, temporally.

Military / Strategic Activity / Deployments –

The New York Times reports Head of the U.S. Military’s Southern Command Is Stepping Down

The officer, Adm. Alvin Holsey, is leaving his job as head of the U.S. Southern Command, which oversees all operations in Central and South America, even as the Pentagon has rapidly built up some 10,000 forces in the region in what it says is a major counterdrug and counterterrorism mission.

It was unclear why Admiral Holsey is suddenly departing, less than a year into what is typically a three-year job, and in the midst of the biggest operation in his 37-year career. But one current and one former U.S. official, both of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss personnel matters, said that Admiral Holsey had raised concerns about the mission and the attacks on the alleged drug boats.

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-masses-10000-troops-near-venezuela-top-admiral-resigns

OBSERVATION - There are two ongoing theories of the reason behind his stepping down. The first is apparent from the article - he didn’t support the president’s policy in the Caribbean. But there is a second rumor that this general was deep into DEI and apparently was unwilling, again, to follow the new direction of national leadership. For both he was probably given the option to leave the easy way or the hard.

POLITICAL FRONT –

Former special counsel Jack Smith was referred to the Department of Justice office that deals with professional misconduct — as well as for disbarment by two state panels — following “deeply disturbing revelations” that he surreptitiously obtained congressional Republicans’ call logs.

A Friday letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi led by Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) accused former President Joe Biden’s DOJ of having “spied on duly elected members of Congress” and demanding that Smith be investigated by the department’s Office of Professional Responsibility.

The elected officials also accused Smith — whose eventual federal cases against President Trump received materials from the FBI’s “Arctic Frost” probe — of having infringed on the constitutional rights of elected officials and “trampled on this separation of powers principle that underlies our system of government.”

https://nypost.com/2025/10/17/us-news/ex-trump-special-counsel-jack-smith-referred-to-doj-for-probe-on-professional-misconduct-potential-state-disbarment/

OBSERVATION - The “No Kingers” clearly overlook this abuse of govt power. This is just the tip of the iceberg on this scumbag.

China -

Chinese military leadership was thrown into chaos after Chinese President Xi Jinping fired a slew of his top military leaders in an ongoing purge, the Chinese Ministry of Defense announced Thursday.

Xi ousted nine military officials from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Friday after the government accused the officials of “serious violations of party discipline,” according to the Defense Ministry. The purge has reportedly shaken the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) to its core as Xi moves to tighten his iron grip on power in the nation and its bureaucracy.

“In accordance with the Party regulations and national laws, the CPC Central Committee decided to expel the nine from the Party and transfer their suspected criminal matters to military procuratorial authorities for further review,” the Chinese Ministry of Defense said in a statement.

https://thelibertydaily.com/peoples-liberation-army-shaken-its-core-as-xi/

OBSERVATION - Xi seems to be nervous about the loyalty of his military in the face of severe economic conditions and his goals of a military build up. One obvious question is whether the shake up provides more competent leadership, or more boot lickers.

Ukraine –
Threat Level WATCH Ongoing Apr 24, 2025

WEATHER FORECAST – Temps dropping to the 40-50 degree range with rain and rain showers

24 HOUR ROUND UP –

Overnight Russia launched 164 strike drones of different types and 3 S-300 missiles, - Ukrainian air forces

Ukraine drones successfully struck the 500 kV Veshkama substation, an essential node linking the Urals and central Russia’s power grids. Explosions were also reported overnight in the Moscow region. Airports in Nizhny Novgorod, Penza, Samara, Tambov, Sochi, Kaluga, Ulyanovsk, and Ufa temporarily halted air traffic.

Ukraine’s General Staff confirms a wave of precision strikes on Russian military and fuel-energy infrastructure in occupied Crimea overnight. Targets hit include an oil depot in Hvardiiske (RVS-2000 tank struck), the “Hvardiysky” Rosrezerv site in Karierne, a fuel depot in Dzhankoi, and a Nebo-U radar in Yevpatoria.

Russian losses per 18/10/25 reported by the Ukrainian General Staff

+1150 men
+1 tank
+2 AFVs
+41 artillery
+2 MLRS

Zelensky met with Trump yesterday in what BBC News described as a “friendly atmosphere”. As for the Tomahawks, those talks have been paused for now, according to Ukrainian officials.
Trump said he hopes to end the conflict without having to resort to releasing Tomahawks to Ukraine.

***

Analysis and Future Operations —

We’ll have to see how serious putin is to meet with Trump again.

Of note on strikes against major power stations. They contain major transformers that in some cases are one of a kind or have small stockpiles (at best). This is a similar weakness the US power grid has as well. Russia and Ukraine may be able to do some limited work arounds, but that will place stresses on the grids that later strikes can quickly eliminate.

Pakistan / Afghanistan –
Threat Level WARNING - OCT 15, 2025 -

Delegations from Pakistan and Afghanistan’s Taliban government are set to hold talks in the Qatari capital, Doha, after a week of fighting that left dozens dead and hundreds injured.

A 48-hour truce on Wednesday halted the clashes, but fresh fighting has since erupted.

Central to the dispute is Pakistan’s accusation that Afghanistan harbors militants responsible for attacks on its soil, a charge the Taliban government denies.

ISRAEL –
Threat Level WATCH Ongoing - Apr 24, 2025

Key overnight developments -

- More hostage remains returned to Israel

- IAF hits Hezbollah in S Lebanon.

——— GAZA FRONT / HAMAS ———————————

Israel says body of hostage handed over by Hamas to the Red Cross overnight and subsequently transferred to Israel has been identified as Eliyahu Margalit

——— ASSESSMENT AND FUTURE OPERATIONS ————————-

The current question I have is how long will Israel wait for Hamas to start being disarmed before they act? With the sudden reappearance of uniformed Hamas, surveillance activities (both HUMINT and IMINT) will provide a good data base to see where these terrotisivt are now operating out from.

A lot probably depends on Trump’s perception of Hamas’ intransigence against the ceasefire agreement.

Otherwise, I expect just more of the same. IAF hitting Hezbollah targets in S Lebanon as the govt there fails to up hold its end of the deal to disarm and remove them from the region.

Things in Syria seem to be settling down, but that can quickly change.

Misc of Note –

I wanted to separate this out here so it wasn’t buried in the CW2 section — as it is important in its on stand.

Forward Observer analysts note the following in association with NK 2.0 today -

According to social media posts and their website, Indivisible and the No Kings protest campaign have chosen YELLOW as their unity color.

A color is an integral part of a Color Revolution because it’s a symbol of national unity against, in many cases, a dictator or autocratic regime. Of the nine classic Color Revolutions since 2000, six have coincided with challenged national elections (on the ground they were stolen), one occurred following the assassination of a prime minister, and two were triggered following the illegal expansion of executive authority.

There are three phases of this current movement:

protest >
resistance >
evolution.

We’re currently in the protest phase and transitioning into the resistance phase, which will feature both protests and nonviolent actions like civil disobedience, occupations, boycotts, and strikes, among other tactics. Protest organizers have previously said they would soon call on protestors and activists to “escalate” their tactics (presumably from protest to resistance) “in the months ahead.” Finally, the revolution phase is the unspoken part of this movement, with revolution remaining an available course of action dependent on the outcome and perceived legality of the 2028 election.

Incorporated into these phases are attacks on key sectors of society -

The Six Pillars describe the underlying foundations that keep a government functioning. They are: Business, Labor, Faith, Education, Civil Service, and Military/Police. Gene Sharp — the godfather of Color Revolutions — explains:
“By themselves, rulers cannot collect taxes, enforce repressive laws and regulations, keep trains running on time, prepare national budgets, direct traffic, manage ports, print money, repair roads, keep markets supplied with food, make steel, build rockets, train the police and army, issue postage stamps or even milk a cow. People provide these services… If people would stop providing these skills, the ruler could not rule.”

In short, a government — a dictator, an autocracy, even a legitimately elected president — depends on these lines of support to function. When a resistance movement convinces elements of these pillars with withdraw their support, the regime collapses.

Think boycotts and other directed protests/actions.

Indivisible and the No Kings protest campaign said they selected YELLOW for their movement because it’s “bright and unmistakable,” and because of yellow’s historical significance. Protestors have worn yellow in Hong Kong, South Korea, and Ukraine to signify their national resistance and opposition to autocracy and invasion.

Protesters at this weekend’s No Kings 2.0 national day of resistance are being asked to wear yellow as a sign of unity and solidarity against the perceived injustices being committed by the Trump administration.

OBSERVATION -
I’m no color expert, but the phrase and organization has been used quite a lot over the past couple decades, focused on Europe and the middle east. I’m doing my homework on this subject so I can see things developing better.

To me the progression listed above depends a lot on the radicalization of the left. Escalation depends a lot on the willingness of the supporters to expose themselves to leverage more pressure on an administration - in this developing case Trump. This radicalization also depends upon the left gain more popular support over the policies of Trump. Right now, nationally Trump is experiencing some of the highest approval levels of any recent president - now surpassing even 0bama. To sway public opinion, the left has continued to blast blatant falsehoods and misrepresentations of Trump policies and actions over its MSM resources and blitzing social media. A prime example is the attempt to switch credit for the ceasefire in Gaza to biden over Trump. Other actions are too numerous to mention, but they’ve been documented many here in FR and TM over the months and years.

This brings about a whole new urgency to target financial support by leftist billionaires going to violent groups like Antifa and allied groups. As that funding chain gets broken up, links further up get disrupted as well and the funding that this early stage of a color revolution hits a speed bump.

What is the path were are on?

Let me double back on the three phases of this current movement: protest > resistance > revolution.

We are well into the “protest” phase, where Indivisible and affiliated leftist groups are trying to gain support and growing ‘peaceful’ protests. They are trying to build legitimacy for passive and active resistance.

Resistance phase is still in its infancy giving that traction is still developing under “protest”. There have been civil disobedience and other directed efforts to sway the “pillars” of the society and embarrass the Trump administration. Their goal is to trigger Trump to over react and give them fuel for further actions. Hence the side discussions of actions against ICE triggering declaration of the Insurrection Act to “prove” the King is a tyrant and is moving to martial law for the whole country. FO analysts suggest that over the next two years this phase my increase - given the midterms and their outcome. At this time looking into the crystal ball, the democrats are in a pickle and stand to loose a substantial number of seats in the House. Outcome from the Schumer shutdown may endanger Senate democrats. The left could seize on the results as illegitimate to bolster their protests. Part of this claim to illegitimacy is revealed in the current redistricting wars that may cause the democrats to lose as many as 30 seats in the House.

The final phase - revolution - would fit the next presidential election cycle. Legitimacy of the MAGA revolution to pass the baton to probably Vance and turmoil generated during the campaign season and beyond would add fire to the revolution.

I think that one must accept what the leftists are saying at face value. The fact that organizers of NK 2.0 have announced a selection of a color - YELLOW - to symbolize their movement is pretty clear that they are operating under a color revolution design and organization. It is important that we recognize this and the actions associated with each stage so that we can track and possibly disrupt their efforts.

Finally, in the light of this understanding of a broader organization of rebellion, the actions of Antifa, marxist moslems and other radical elements make some more sense. They are tied into the goals and efforts of these color revolutionary leaders.

I’m working to understand this better.

Democrats knew this and lied anyway.

No surprise there.

.

Mamdani’s proposals will always look good to those who think they can get something for nothing.

Fascinating. Never saw a lot of this information before. Never heard a whisper about it being a deal to get him into jail. WHO had the power to get work release for Epstein in Palm Beach? That seems the big question.

If there is a one on one meeting between 47 and his best bro, Putin, there will be a piece of paper signed. Doubtlessly, the paper will force Ukraine to accept what ever terms 47 Putin dictates. And so freeing Putin to position troops along the boarder with the Baltics, which pretty please, Putin will have no intention of invading because Russia does not invade other countries ...

But the prayers worked and 47 lapped up Putin’s new line of borscht, cancelling any possible Tomahawks to Ukraine; then 47 espoused Putin’s Kumbaya line of ‘everyone just stop and go home,’ putting Putin in the position of having successfully conquered a fair bit of Ukraine and getting the seal of approval from 47.

Yes sometimes the answer is NO
