QUESTION: Can you verify your sources on Gates and Epstein’s meeting with the head of the Nobel Prize? I have never heard anything about Al Gore acting improperly. Are there sources on that as well?

GH

ANSWER: I think the problem is that the American press protects the democrats and has been protecting Bill Gates until the divorce. That story was broken some time ago in Norway. It is just like the story of the US interfering in the 2000 Russian election and the $7 billion money laundering that tied back to IMF funds. That was a big story in Russia but got no air time in the United States. As far as the Lily-white image of Al Gore, again, the mainstream press has tended to ignore that one as well because it is an inconvenient truth for the savior of the planet. There have been numerous allegations against Gore besides meeting with Epstein.

Virginia Roberts Giuffre, pictured here with Prince Andrew, also said as part of her sworn testimony, that she met former President Bill Clinton and former Vice President Al Gore. She also said that Epstein once held a dinner for Clinton on his island, Little St. James, off the coast of St. Thomas. With respect to Trump, she said in a 2016 deposition that she met Trump through her own father, who worked as a maintenance man at Trump’s Palm Beach home, Mar-a-Lago, and that to her knowledge, Trump never had any intimate contact with “us” — referring to a group of girls Epstein kept at his beck and call for sex.

Gates began hanging out with Epstein in 2011. Epstein got an extremely rare 2007 non-prosecution agreement. Prosecutors do not drop charges for no reason. Alexander Acosta, who became the U.S. Labor Secretary under Trump, was the U.S. Attorney for South Florida who cut that deal with Epstein. The Epstein issue came up when Acosta was appointed to the cabinet by President Donald Trump. It was then written:

He’d cut the non-prosecution deal with one of Epstein’s attorneys because he had “been told” to back off, that Epstein was above his pay grade. “I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence’ and to leave it alone,” he told his interviewers in the Trump transition, who evidently thought that was a sufficient answer and went ahead and hired Acosta. (The Labor Department had no comment when asked about this.)

It was long assumed that Robert Maxwell, Epstein’s girlfriend’s father, was also alleged to have been connected to Israeli intelligence. Yet, Robert Maxwell was also the model for a James Bond villain. In Epstein’s little black book was also Edmond Safra of Republic National Bank who took the $1 billion from me. He was partners in Hermitage Capital Management with Bill Browder who claims to be Putin’s number one enemy, which if true, he would have been gone long ago.

I believe Epstein was probably at the same IMF dinner Edmond invited me for there were hundreds of people there and virtually every political leader or bureaucrat you ever heard of. I was talking that night with Paul Volcker.

How Epstein was connected to intelligence is hard to say. All the elements were present. He had a luxurious lifestyle and endless free time. I was taken for one of those walks in the park across from the Court House in Foley Square, NYC. I was told that with all my connections, everything could go away if I agreed to work for them undercover. My lawyer Richard Altman warned me they would do that and he recommended I decline. He said I would be like a dog on a leash the rest of my life. I declined. If I took such a deal, then I too would have been given a non-prosecution agreement. That is also how the world works behind the facade. So was Epstein already an “asset” in 2007, or is that the deal he took and assumed he was sanctioned by the government? Hard to say. Gates had no problem dealing with him in 2011.

Gates’ reputation is now imploding. This is a good thing for it plays into our model warning that these people will fail

I just did a TV show in Russia where the topic was Bill Gates. They wanted to interview me because I have explained about Epstein and this was not about simply young girls that at 16 would have been legal in Britain. Indeed, in Europe the vast majority of countries set their legal ages for consent in the range of 14 to 16; only three countries set the age above 16 – Cyprus (17), Ireland (17), and Turkey (18). This raises serious questions. If Epstein was really just into girls between 14 and 18, then why not do that in Europe? The only reason to engage in such a practice here in the USA must be for other reasons when you are inviting the elites of the elites of the world. Gates’s wife began looking at the divorce when Gates got involved with Epstein.

I do not believe Melinda was upset just because the girls were young. I seriously doubt most could tell the difference between a 16 and 18-year-old. Virginia Roberts Giuffre, pictured with Prince Andrew, was alleging Epstein recruited and groomed her as a 16-year-old in Florida. If this was done in Europe, it would have been perfectly legal. So why do this in the USA? To me, it was all about blackmail and having control over politically powerful people.

Melinda Gates met with divorce lawyers in 2019 saying that their marriage was “irretrievably broken.” It was October 2019, when the relationship between Mr. Gates and Mr. Epstein became public.  It was at this time when Melinda hired divorce lawyers, setting in motion a process that culminated recently with the announcement that their marriage was ending. Was it that Bill Gates was just interested in young girls? The more likely scenario was Gates was more interested in using Epstein to further his agenda using blackmail, intimidation, and even had Epstein set up a meeting with the head of the Nobel Prize for it has been alleged that it was Epstein who got Al Gore his prize.

I find it interesting how the concern about Gates has grown globally. To ask me to appear on national TV in Russia over Gates which I believe will air tomorrow says a lot.

Background – The people on the ground in Windham, New Hampshire, are doing an excellent job holding the election officials and auditors accountable to the people during this forensic ballot audit. The audit started because the tabulating machines (Dominion hardware and software) did not accurately count the votes from the physical ballots.

During the first small audit (recount) it was discovered that Republican votes were undercounted and Democrat candidates were overcounted. This anomaly was discovered during a hand recount of the ballots as compared to the electronic tabulation results.

After the first set of electronic tabulation results were discovered to be inaccurate the state authorized a full forensic audit. The full audit is ongoing; yesterday it was reported the second hand recount matched the first, which means the machine tabulation of those ballots was wrong.

The auditors wondered if folded ballots generated the problem. The test of folded -vs- unfolded ballots (counted by same machine) showed a high number of errors.  The rate of error was a whopping 60%.  That could mean the tabulation machines across all of New Hampshire may have this problem.

Washington Examiner – As many as 60% of ballots with machine-made or handmade folds were improperly counted by the town’s four scanning machines, Harri Hursti, one of three auditors selected for the process, told the New Hampshire Union Leader on Monday.  “The error rate was way higher than we expected,” Hursti said.

[…] if someone voted for all four Republican candidates and the ballot happened to have its fold line going through St. Laurent’s target, then that might be interpreted by the machines as an overvote, which would then subtract votes from each of those four Republican candidates,” said Philip Stark, another member of the three-person audit team, according to a WMUR 9 report last week. “Conversely, if there were not four votes already in that contest by the voter, a fold line through that target could have caused the machine to interpret it as a vote for St. Laurent.” (read more)

President Trump has responded:

New Hampshire’s Election Audit has revealed that large-scale voting machines appear to count NON-EXISTING VOTES. State and local communities are seeking confirmation. It’s probably true, but we’ll soon know. Why aren’t Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Republicans doing anything about what went on in the 2020 Election? How can the Democrats be allowed to get away with this? It will go down as the Crime of the Century! Other States like Arizona, Georgia (where a Judge just granted a motion to unseal and inspect ballots from the 2020 Election), Michigan, Pennsylvania, and more to follow. (LINK)

The mumbling White House occupant visited FEMA headquarters to review preparations for this year’s upcoming Hurricane season.

Lord, hear our prayers….

Bottom-line folks, with the mass exodus of competence in logistics, supply chain organization and priority relief delivery experts, in favor of politically correct non-gender specific diversity operatives, don’t look for any help from the Feds.

“Chin up, in the event of an emergency…. WE GOT THIS“!

The media and Maricopa County officials have been claiming that voter result databases were not deleted; and they reference the ability of the auditors to recover the deleted information as proof the voter data was never deleted.  However, according to technical forensic expert Ben Cotton, the ‘D’ drive of the EMS Primary Server was in fact deleted.  It was only because of his extensive experience in the data forensics field that he was able to recover the deleted files; which is exactly what he said at the Arizona State Senate hearing on May 19th.

QUESTION – ““Did you determine that the D drive was deleted?”

BEN COTTON –  “I did. We follow a very strict forensics acquisition process in which we don’t turn on a system if its delivered powered off. We remove the hard drives and perform forensics imaging with write locks on to prevent any changes to those hard drives. We produce a bit for bit forensics copy of that drive. In the case of the EMS servers, there were 6 drives. 2 drives were for the operating system and they were (unintelligible) configuration. So if something was changed on the operating system drive that would automatically be reflected on both drives.”

“The other four drives were data drives and they were in a RAID configuration known as 1 plus zero. So you have a volume that is mirrored but also data redundancy and striped across both drives. If I don’t turn on a system I don’t have access to the RAID parameters and the county did not provide those to us. so I had to do a discovery process to determine what that RAID configuration was. Part of that process is a scan across those drives to detect partitions of data and to also detect a master file table which is a record of all of the directories of the files that are contained in that partition, and a pointer to where that data resides on the hard drive. In the course of performing that discovery I found that an MFT that clearly indicated that the data base directory was deleted from that server. All of this may be moot because subsequently I have been able to recover all the deleted files and I have access to that data.”

Everything about the COVID mitigation narrative is based on control and manipulation.  The COVID “narrative” is a fraud, a systemic and purposeful fraud, perpetrated by a group of manipulative political interest groups who needed a vector to exploit the American social fabric…. to trigger specific “fundamental change” that could benefit their longer term political interests.

MICHIGAN – Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer apologized Sunday after apparently violating state-mandated social distancing guidelines at an East Lansing bar and grill.

It was the latest pandemic-related misstep for the Democratic governor, who waited weeks to disclose partial details of a private jet trip she took to visit her father in Florida after two of her top aides headed south as coronavirus cases surged in Michigan and residents were cautioned against traveling south for spring break.

[Whitmer responded] “Yesterday, I went with friends to a local restaurant. As more people arrived, the tables were pushed together. Because we were all vaccinated, we didn´t stop to think about it. In retrospect, I should have thought about it. I am human. I made a mistake, and I apologize.” (read more)

Because the COVID narrative is built upon a foundation of fraud, those who have pushed the usefulness of it are often caught in hypocritical behaviors. Some have said “they don’t believe their own message”; however, that is only partially true.  It’s not that they don’t believe the control message, it’s more along the lines of knowing the message is a lie; as a result they do not follow the rules they demand of others.

All of the conflicts within the COVID storyline reconcile when you accept the overall COVID threat is based on fraud.  The disparity of outcome amid open states -vs- lockdown states reconciles when you accept the larger COVID narrative is false.  The officials violating their own rules and guidelines reconciles when you accept they know the baseline is a lie.

It really is that simple, and yet a large portion of the larger American electorate are seemingly refusing to accept that a lie of this scale and magnitude could be carried out with such unified control in the deliberateness of the messaging.  [Insert metaphor of the Emperor’s new clothes] Or perhaps the refusal to admit seeing the lie is because accepting such a reality is very destabilizing to the psyche of the person having to make such an admission.

Regardless of the reasoning, and regardless of how many people accept the truth, the COVID narrative is a total fraud and that falsehood is becoming more evident by the day.  Yes, that means all levels of the mitigation, including the vaccine push, are based on fraud and manipulated science by larger political interests.

In the final analysis one has to wonder if they can pull this off, what else is possible?

That is an alarming question to ponder.
