IT'S DISTRACTION SEASON AGAIN

      Here in the Prozac Nation, the Corporate Media was compelled this weekend to take a hiatus from the usual hero-worship and drama due to (yet another) catastrophic natural disaster. This time, a massive flood swept through Central Texas with literally hundreds of people dead or missing. Both wings of the Uniparty, which have continued together ignoring the scandalous condition of American Flood Control systems for many years now, reacted to the disaster with finger-pointing; and, as usual, offered no solutions to address the issue. In Postmodern America, building things more prisons, internment camps, domestic espionage networks, and border walls are considered priority infrastructure spending: actual Public Safety, not so much. 

     With the flooding and too many questions (finally) starting to be asked in the wake of passing the Neocons' Budget-Bill, an urgent distraction from Reality became necessary. Military showboating against Iran and Elon Musk's further antics simply weren't enough. So the US Department of Justice obliged with the single most reliable tactic to divert public attention: a juicy sex scandal.

      Sunday Night's announcement that the Justice Department has found nothing on the long-moribund Jeffrey Epstein Scandal has sent the American Social Media scene into a spiraling meltdown. To recap the story a bit for context here: Jeffrey Epstein was a Wall Street/WEF hedge-fund billionaire who sidelined as a Globalist Deep State Operative. He owned a private island in the Carribbean where he ran Black Budget operations of every description, mostly on behalf of the CIA, MI-6, and the Mossad, although personal vendettas among the rich and powerful were no doubt had for a price too. Epstein Island was an international hotbed of pay-to-play Political and Corporate organized crime activities that certain interests preferred not be done under the scrutiny of government authorities or curious journalists. There are other places like this in the world, Epstein's happened to be most notorious though. 

     As a front for all of these crimes, Epstein ran a front of operating something like a billionaires' playground, and kept a number of young women around for that purpose. In a deeply sex-negative culture like the United States, Epstein's actual crimes could get a free pass, but the thought that men might be engaging in heterosexual activities is intolerable to contemporary Americans. Epstein's mistake was keeping it all private instead of following Andrew Tate's strategy of opening it all to public gaze. Part and parcel of a sexually puritanical culture like ours is that two of our main national past-times are voyeurism and IRL sex: Tate understands this, but Epstein didn't. Hence, Tate gets to be a national hero while Epstein died under mysterious circumstances. The Deep State subsequently picked the woman who managed the Island's hostesses as a human sacrifice and the scandal went away as the Media found new lurid stories to latch onto. 

     

      Some on the New Right are screaming that the DOJ's announcement is tantamount to Treason; the Whacko Left is touting a Conspiracy Theory that Trump is covering up because he's implicated in something. To cut through the Noise Machine, let us just examine a few actual realities here:

       1. If there really was anything incriminating about Trump in Epstein's files, his enemies wouldn't have wasted time and money on stupid witch-hunts, impeachments, and Lawfare over ridiculously trivial issues and allegations with nothing but rumors to support them.

      2. Even if there were anything scandalous about Trump, we should all know by now that most of his supporters are borderline paranoid fanatics who wouldn't care anyway.

      3. It's somewhat absurd to imagine that the Deep State would be transparent about anything involving a high-profile operative like Jeffrey Epstein. Let's be realistic: Pam Bondi (former lobbyist for Jeff Bezos and current operative of the Bush Machine); Kash Patel (former Obama Administration Official); and Dan Bongino (a wholly-owned toady of Rupert Murdoch) are part of the Deep State, as were their predecessors. 

     The self-righteous reaction of the American public to the DOJ announcement is more akin to the anger most of them feel when there's a power failure in the middle of one of their OnlyFans broadcasts. They were expecting high-octane titillation and got a blank screen. The scandal will blow over though (just like it did before) as soon as new one pops up to grab public attention. It is rather sad that Americans are less concerned about the dangers of a couple dozen Campfire Girls getting drown in a flood because of our failure to build infrastructure than they are about the possibly than one of those girls might be seen kissing a boy; but that's where Trash Culture has gotten us.
