DOES THE EPSTEIN LIST REALLY MATTER

Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today’s Castle Report. There are many things of vital importance today such as war in the Middle East and war in Ukraine but I have decided to continue my discussion of Jeffrey Epstein and the list of his customers which doesn’t exist along with the subjects of his blackmail which as we all know does not exist either.

Just to refresh your collective memories a little bit last week the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a client list of prominent people who were being blackmailed by Jeffrey Epstein acting as the agent for the Israeli Intelligence Service, Mossad. There are many reasons why the list is so important and why it threatens what’s left of government credibility.

First of all, it’s extremely frightening to think that we have a government that is completely untrustworthy in all respects. I’m not talking about Democrats and Republicans I’m talking about the U.S. Government in general. Who would want to pay taxes voluntarily or serve in the military of a government like that. To further complicate things throughout history when people have lost faith in their government’s credibility revolution has been the result. Two prominent examples would be the French Revolution of 1789 and the Russian/Communist Revolution of 1917. In both cases the government which came forward to save the country from chaos and mass murder was far worse and killed far more people than its predecessor.

Here in 2025 America, we have a government which came in with such promise for most of us and certainly for the President’s followers who were known as MAGA. Together, America was going to be great again. MAGA had certain goals which carried the campaign to victory. There would be an end to illegal immigration and there would be deportation of illegal criminals. So far so good although Democrats in congress fight each and every deportation even when the one being deported is a known criminal. Now we hear rumors that Trump might be considering some form of amnesty but his base rebelled when that test rumor was circulated.

The answer to the rebellion was simple. Amnesty was proposed piecemeal and in a disguised fashion. The folks in big agriculture, the restaurant business and chicken slaughterhouses need their cheap labor so maybe the President would consider an exemption for workers in those industries.

 The heart of MAGA was of course the hope of peace. This president was going to bring peace and withdraw America from forever wars. Trump said in his campaign that he could end the war in Ukraine with a few phone calls but now six months after inauguration the war rages on and it has become his war.

Just this week he decided to bully Vladimir Putin by giving him 50 days to comply with Trump’s demands or he would “ruin Russia financially.” Zelensky said that it is too long and just wastes time and lives. I guess he just wants to get on with killing. He is shipping “billions of dollars” of new weapons to Ukraine including long range missiles designed to reach deep into Russia, but now he says they won’t be used to hit Moscow. I hope that someone reminded the President that Russia has about 6000 nuclear warheads with systems to deliver them which cannot be defeated conventionally. He would also be wise to remember that Genghis Khan, Nepoleon Bonaparte, and Adolph Hitler were all unsuccessful in their efforts to intimidate and then conquer Russia.

The point is that with a couple of notable exceptions the peace president is no more. The notable exceptions were Marco Rubio’s successful negotiations to bring peace to the Pakistan-India War and a war in Africa which had been on again off again for decades. War is the bottom line for all people who labor for the government no matter which party they inhabit. They will disagree on a few things like abortion and mutilation of children so that we sheep will think we actually have a choice but once in office we find they are rather squishy about even those things.

The one thing they all agree on is war all over the planet especially war on behalf of Israel. Trump appeared to be a threat to that world order and they were scared of him for that reason. When they call him fascist and say he is the same as Hitler they really mean the opposite and the fear is that he is not those things. Once in office it took only 6 months for the powers that be to show him who really runs the world. So, the lesson and its aftermath is that MAGA is over and greatness will just have to wait. The war in Ukraine is worse than ever and now we are no longer afraid to attack nuclear armed Russia. How long before Putin grows weary of it and decides to stop sitting by while his country is attacked. I hope his patience continues because when patience runs out World War lll won’t be far behind.

Wars on behalf of Israel simply cannot be stopped even though my opinion is that they are illegal. The Symington Amendment, which in 1976 amended the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 forbids aid to nations which enrich uranium to weapons grade outside of International Atomic Energy Agency Controls. The way around that has always been to refuse to acknowledge Israel has such weapons. Wars on behalf of Israel could be stopped by telling Mr. Netanyahu that there would be no more, not one more bullet and not one more dollar. Here’s something you might not know, folks. The U.S. Corps of Engineers is in Israel right now repairing damage and rebuilding infrastructure. I imagine they could be useful in East Tennessee, and North Carolina repairing hurricane damage but we have our priorities.

Speaking of disasters think about this for a moment. The recent horrible disaster in Texas with so many dead and so many of them children. Can you imagine the horror and sadness of not even being able to recover your 7-year-old daughter’s body. Well, multiply that death toll by 5000 times and you may get a little picture of what mothers in Gaza have gone through, allegedly. Is it all true, I don’t know but I’ve seen enough, read enough, and heard the testimonies of people actually there to convince me that it is. Testimonies such as the Palestinian woman who is also a physician. She is continuing to treat victims in the rubble despite all 9, yes 9, of her own children having been killed.

Is Israel as a nation of Jewish people capable of such things. I wish I could say no but I think back to 1967 when the USS Liberty sailing 13 miles off the Egyptian coast with the U.S. flag clearly flying was attacked by Israeli fighter jets and strafed and bombed repeatedly. The Israelis even strafed men in lifeboats eventually killing 34 American sailors. One brave sailor managed to get an antenna aloft and a rescue distress was sent. The message was intercepted by the Israelis and they called off the attack thus allowing the little ship to survive. Why would they do that, who knows. A reasonable guess would be to draw the U.S. into their war against the combined Arab armies which they were engaged in. The point is that they have proven they are indeed capable of mass murder.

That takes us back to Jeffrey Epstein and whether he was an Israeli, Mossad agent. Tucker Carlson thinks he was and that has brought a lot of criticism down on his head. Tucker was a speaker at Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point event the other day and he made that allegation publicly. I listened to his speech, not live but later and he was quite adamant that Epstein was an Israeli agent. Epstein’s close associate and even closer lover, Ghislane Maxwell comes from a historic Israeli spy family. Her father, Robert Maxwell was a very high-ranking Israeli spy with medals to prove it and even a memorial in Israel in his honor.

Was this woman who was definitely Robert Maxwell’s daughter, and definitely Jeffrey Epstein’s procurer of children and young women the only one who was guilty of anything besides Epstein himself. That doesn’t sound very believable to me. Maxwell’s family hasn’t given up hope of getting her out of prison and to that end they have filed a habeas corpus motion alleging that she did not get a fair trial, but as of last Wednesday it was denied. I can believe her trial wasn’t fair as she was obviously supposed to take the fall for the guilty but she still pimped out children to the rich and famous. So, maybe fair but maybe selective prosecution. Who were the rich and famous and were any of their sex with children episodes filmed. It’s hard to believe they were not and therefore it is easy to believe they were blackmailed.

This entire episode reminds me of the moral rot that has infected our leaders and thereby our entire society. It has left us susceptible to blackmail whether that happened or not. We are told by the DOJ that there is no blackmail and no list so are we to believe the unbelievable. When the story about Tucker’s speech accusing Israel broke it was quickly responded to by a former Israeli Prime Minister, Naftali Bennett.

“As a former Israeli Prime Minister, with the Mossad having reported directly to me, I say to you with 100% certainty; The accusation that Jeffrey Epstein somehow worked for Israel or the Mossad running a blackmail ring is categorically and totally false.”

How much credence should we give to Mr. Bennett’s strong denial. My answer is none, zero because anyone or any organization that would send spies around the world to buy and kidnap children then pimp them out to the officials of a foreign government should not be considered as potentially truthful. Could all this potential or possible blackmail be the reason for so many wars. Could it be why U.S. forces are in Israel right now. Could it be why there are about 40,000 U.S. troops in the Middle East. Could it be why B-2 bombers were recently employed against Iran. Yes, all those things are possible and the whole thing is in doubt without the list and without the radical transparency we were promised.

In conclusion, a society that has completely lost any hope of trust in leadership is doomed. Jeffrey Epstein and his list are important for that reason alone. Truth is superior to lies, and having leaders repeatedly lie to our faces is exhausting and threatening to the very fabric of society. For those reasons and others, the list is a hill worth dying on. Did Epstein work for Israel in blackmailing U.S. leaders. I don’t know so that’s why we need a real investigation with full disclosure.

Finally, folks, While we are expending blood and treasure in other people’s wars we should keep something in mind. If we continue at the current rate of deficit spending until the year 2033 or just 8 more years the debt will exceed 50 trillion dollars and it will require more that 40% of revenue for the interest. My point is that we can’t afford these wars fought for the benefit of other nations.

At least that’s the way I see it,

Until next time folks,

This is Darrell Castle,

Thanks for listening.
