Absolutely. It's critical that we do.

This filth has been hidden for decades. Damn grateful former Republicans are finally on these terrifying front lines. When the Union said “No Quarter” on dismantling our country, they sent the confederate cowards packing. Make no mistake, they’ve picked on the wrong people again. Hell is empty and all the devils are running amok here.

You nailed it. They’ve been hiding behind money...secrecy...and institutions for decades...but now the curtain’s ripping. Former Republicans stepping up shows the ground is shifting. Like the Union...we don’t give quarter. They picked the wrong fight... and history’s about to teach them that lesson all over again.

You are correct....billionaires are power centers. That's a great Epstein explainer statement.

Excellent reporting. You've got the details - and lots of them. I feel things heating up and I never thought I'd say that. The 4 named global banks & executives is a start and is major. The other categories are indeed a cross-section of the elite that run the world.

Exactly right, Leslie. Billionaires aren’t just rich...they’re power centers. That’s why the Epstein files are dynamite: they expose the infrastructure of elite control. The banks...the execs...the categories Massie named...it’s the skeleton key. And yes...the heat is rising. This is just the start.

Jack, have you seen the video made by Victor Marx? He hunts trafficking rings to bring them down. Anyway, in the video he said this is something we should leave alone and spend the time and money to hunt for victims who are being abused right now. He said this is a cover to blackmail people for political reasons set up by governments, possibly Israel, US, Russia. If the names are released it will stop the ability to use the information for blackmail and will affect relationships between countries and organizations around the world. I think that is the gist of it, although I may have some specific details incorrect. Now that the whole world knows that the names might be revealed it seems the undercover covert operation is compromised and broken anyway. Unless it still exists in another location. Why would governments think sacrificing hundreds of girls to be sexually abused, giving the government the ability to run a blackmail operation, is something anyone should do? It is so morally reprehensible. Why would those same people think it is okay to fail the women today who are the victims of the pedophiles and the operation that ran it? This shows a terrible lack of judgement of the governments involved. The least our government can do is release the names, charge them, and explain to the American people what the hell is going on. I may not have expressed myself well in these sentences. This thing is so bad. It is bad enough to know there are adults out there who torture children for their sexual pleasure. It is so much worse that governments basically set up party houses for these cretins. Who knew about this? WHO. Thank you to the members of the congressional committee who have done such a good job for us.

Means a lot, Joan. Thank you. None of this works without readers like you standing shoulder to shoulder in this fight. That’s what keeps me pushing...because together we’re not just watching history...we’re shaping it.

I'm definitely fired up. This news is what I have been waiting for for a long time. I'd love to see the rich and famous finally get what's coming to them. I hope that whoever brings this out into the open has plenty of personal protection. The rich and famous will not easily let this pass without retribution. Bring it on, the sooner, the better!

This is as fucking ugly and disgusting as it gets. This entire enterprise NEEDS to come down. It’s a rotten filthy mess. Let the entire works implode so the piggiest of the piggy powerful get what must happen. Great work Jack. It’s hard to stomach but this is the deep state power center that needs exposed. The victims deserve it. Our democracy cannot hold this kind of evil anymore.

I don’t know enough about those at the top of the billionaire list to speculate about names, but I damn well know they’re out there and they are very concerned about being identified. If they weren’t then why are so many people trying to keep a lid on this?

thanks, man!! it astounds me that, according to what seems to be public knowledge of how wide spread this operation was and how long it festered, that secrets were not able to ooze through the cracks; i'm assuming that victims who have testified are under some kind of order to not publicly state their knowledge of who these people are. it's increasingly appearing to look like an open secret. but with news like this it looks as if the drips are eroding the iceberg of silence little by little. I hope there is a total meltdown and flood of information revealed to the world. And don't let anyone ever tell you that getting rich will be the end of your troubles and make you happy. the proof is more clear every day: these billionaires are looking more like disturbed and sick addicts and they need to be reigned in as far as their influence over governments and the vast majority of people's lives other than their businesses. they are NOT arbiters of public life and people's rights and privileges and should fuck the hell off of trying to have undue influence, and instead mind their own petty little--legal--interests.

Seems to me the Trump regime is doing a pretty good job of destabilizing the world order on their own. How these files would change the damage they are visiting upon us must have prognosticators in knots, I can’t imagine, not even close.

I have an embarrassing number of paid subscriptions, added in the flush of what seemed to be finding a nexus of hope and action. I regret half of them, and too many of the others are merely disappointing. Then there is Jack, and I make very few exceptions. He brings the fire I so fully believed all would, instead I continually see showboating, grandstanding, begging for upgrades and books being hawked.

Like, how is it that even people who are supposed to get it don’t, and if they do they aren’t sharing anything in the way of a plan except “we’ll show ‘em next November.” I get that we’re trying to navigate shark infested uncharted waters but I do not see very many pulling oars in the same direction. (I like my metaphors shaken, not stirred). And not to name names, but i just saw Cohen wondering aloud, truly puzzled, why his numbers were falling. If SStack ever actually was our last, best hope it’s not looking too good at the moment.

Except here.

Maybe because I was around when it happened, but it’s fair to say I’ve lived through every “promised” release of the JFK truth. Lucy and the football. Think of how many writing and film careers would have never happened if it came out immediately. Vought and Miller must be pleased at the speed with which they’ve been able to effectuate P2025, but it seems this has added a new wrinkle to the plot.

The Prince does not have to be Prince Andrew! It could be a Saudi prince or some other prince like one in European one so it is too soon to say so. Everyone knows about Andrew so it doesn’t have to be him!

Thank You Jack! Yesterday and Today just kept me pissed off watching Patel lie and it’s an easy tell that he’s lying. He yells more, constantly drinks water, and his voice gets louder and louder. I’ve tried so hard to be hopeful, but today was really full! I’m still here for the fight though.

Michael Wolff has said all along that the files won’t be released because the fallout from around the world would be destabilizing.

That is exactly what needs to happen. Their assets are hoarded, not invested in the country, jobs, education, research. Secure their funds, including Cheeto, just like the law confiscates drug money. How much money did he make selling little girls to old men?

That’s hopeful, Jack.

I read Project 2025 last year. The FBI has had its teeth pulled. With Patel in charge, they ain’t gettin’ dentures.

Project 2025 chapter 17 DOJ pages 552ff.

I reckon we’ll see the Epstein file right after the Warren Commission Report is released.
