A guy named Leslie Epstein wrote this book and, when the hive-mind of online sleuths found it, I didn’t believe it. First published in 1979, this is the summary of the “novel” from Amazon:
Before getting to the insane excerpts I found, I’m going to contextualize what obtaining this book represents, then I’m going to list all the posts about the Epstein network I’ve written since the latest dump of demoralizing data points that no lone researcher can handle, leading some to throw massive tantrums in private conversations about the pain of relative obscurity while simultaneously having incredible insights into how power functions in Big Sky Country.
Getting a hard copy of this absurd book title is like going directly to physical locations as a “citizen journalist” in order to find, document, and try to contextualize stuffed Unicorns at an abandoned homeless encampment in the same geographical area a body was found four months ago and still hasn’t been identified. Getting a hard copy means determining, for myself, where to start with understanding what might be going on here, starting with what funded the creation of this “story” in the first place:
The Guggenheim family was once one of the wealthiest families in the world and their patriarch, Meyer Guggenheim, came from Switzerland. Other locations relevant to the family include Denver and Colorado Springs. Interesting.
To date (3/19) these are the posts I’ve written about the Epstein network, starting with a post that predates the latest release of files because it’s about the PayPal Mafia hanging out north of Missoula, at Paws Up Ranch, which is very relevant.
With all these real-life connections being made, what are we to make of “fiction” like what you’re about to read, funded by Guggenheim money and penned by a man named Epstein?
Pretty crazy, yes, but you’re only reading this because I’m crazy enough to keep hitting the “publish” button like Charlie Day in that scene from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia reaching for the cheese over and over again despite getting shocked.
If you’d like to help me feel less like a dumbass getting shocked for no good reason, donate some cheese to my GoFundMe page. One of my expenses for an upcoming post is the police report from the church I’m trespassed from, which the cop shop charges $7 whole dollars for, but trust me when I say that cost will be worth it.
I really hate panhandling for donations, but until I start getting some wider attention for the work I’m doing, my reality is that local lawfare is a VERY effective means of shutting someone up. Some of the lawyers I’ve reached out for legal help include Quentin Rhoades and Matthew Monforton, both supposed legal combatants in the culture war, but for me, with a clear shot at legally taking out nasty bitches like Ellie Boldman, their cojones become little raisins. Sad.
One more link before I wrap this up, and this one is VERY important because Nick Bryant is one of the few people I trust to make an effort at Epstein Justice a real effort and NOT just some limited hangout to keep controlling the scope of the narrative contained. Bryant wrote extensively about the Franklin Scandal long before anyone knew the name Jeffrey Epstein, and it’s his work that allowed me to write this brief post about “Pizzagate” ten years ago.
Hopefully Nick Bryant and his team are more responsive to my outreach efforts than the podcasters I keep reaching out to have been.
I think Afroman has helped expose something significant by mercilessly mocking the assholes with badges who fucked up and raided his house in 2022, and it was the tears of a woman who previously held her finger on the trigger of an AR-15 in the raid that sealed it: Sheriff Offices and police forces have a strategy of playing the victim card when called out, and this strategy is made more plausible with hiring women, since they make such lovely victims on the stand.
After the raid, which resulted in ZERO charges, Afroman turned his anger into hilarity by making parody music–something our first amendment once protected–but the popularity made Adams County Sheriff Deputies look like little bitches, so they sued Afroman. I guess the collective stupidity of the Adams County Sheriff’s Office prevented them from thinking about the Streisand effect, which I am now embodying by writing about the litigation now taking place in an actual courtroom.
Here’s the gist of the legal claims coming from the people with the power to kill you now using lawyers and the court system to issue official, actionable accusations about how traumatized they are because Afroman made music about them:
Four deputies, two sergeants and a detective with the sheriff’s office filed the suit alleging that the music video, which has been viewed over 3 million times since December 2022, defamed them, invaded their constitutional privacy and was an intentional infliction of emotional distress.
The agents had been acting on a warrant asserting probable cause for narcotics being stored and kidnappings taking place on the property.
No evidence of criminal activity was found on the property, and no charges were filed.
To make this bullshit stick, one of the gun-toting deputies made sure to cry real good for the judge and jury as she does what she was perhaps hired to do.
And here’s Afroman explaining how his creative process works, starting with the fact he wouldn’t even know the names of these “public servants” had they not descended on Afroman’s home, broken shit, and generally acted like a violent gang of thugs:
“If they hadn’t wrongly raided my house, there would be no lawsuit, I would not know their names, they wouldn’t be on my home surveillance system, and there would be no songs … my money would still be intact.”
Money? Yes, despite no criminal charges, money was taken, surveillance cameras were tampered with BY the deputies, and Afroman’s family was terrorized. Here’s how the raid was depicted by the rapper three years ago, in an NPR piece:
“I asked myself, as a powerless Black man in America, what can I do to the cops that kicked my door in, tried to kill me in front of my kids, stole my money and disconnected my cameras?” he says. “And the only thing I could come up with was make a funny rap song about them and make some money, use the money to pay for the damages they did and move on.”
He released an album with songs about the raid and made music videos out of the surveillance footage. He created merchandise and social media posts calling out the officers who had been involved.
Now, some of them are suing him, his label, and a Texas-based music distribution company for invasion of privacy.
If you don’t think this case has local relevance you clearly don’t know how Missoula PD took a situation outside a bar where a scuffle had taken place and turned it into a beat-down of Brandon Bryant, the drone whistleblower who can’t handle wood products without local law enforcement being absolutely terrified of him. There was even eager prosecutors to place an ADDITIONAL criminal charge on Bryant because his online speech further victimized the poor cops who can kill anyone they want and get away with it. I mean, if the SHERIFF’S office can euthanize a black man without nary a peep from those who allegedly care about such thing, what do city cops really have to worry about?
I know EXACTLY what they’re worried about, and it’s this: losing control of the narrative. That’s why it’s not just individuals who play the victim card to evade accountability, it’s entire institutions. Has that been the strategy behind female hires within the world of law enforcement?
War aggressors LARP’ing as victims is actually the insane, inverted ethos of an entire nation currently fulfilling its religious script by making Nick Fuentes sound prophetic and Candace Owens sound sympathetic. At what point will they reference the well-known training that law enforcement agencies across America have engaged in thanks to the generosity of their benefactors.
Though ten years old, this article is more relevant now than ever. Here’s an excerpt:
When the U.S. Department of Justice published a report opens in a new tab on August 10, 2016, that documented “widespread constitutional violations, discriminatory enforcement, and culture of retaliation” within the Baltimore Police Department (BPD), there was rightly a general reaction of outrage.
But what hasn’t received as much attention is where Baltimore police received training on crowd control, use of force and surveillance: Israel’s national police, military and intelligence services.
Baltimore law enforcement officials, along with hundreds of others from Florida opens in a new tab, New Jersey opens in a new tab, Pennsylvania, California opens in a new tab, Arizona opens in a new tab, Connecticut, New York opens in a new tab, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Georgia opens in a new tab, Washington state opens in a new tab as well as the DC Capitol police have all traveled to Israel for training. Thousands of others have received training from Israeli officials here in the U.S. opens in a new tab
Many of these trips are taxpayer funded while others are privately funded. Since 2002, the Anti-Defamation League, the American Jewish Committee’s Project Interchange and the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs have paid for police chiefs, assistant chiefs and captains to train in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT).
While Afroman’s lawsuit may help him get MORE attention and money, I’m hoping stories like his will help locals in Missoula better understand why Pirate Booty’s candidacy for Missoula Sheriff was so necessary. Now, if you’ll excuse, I have some video content to create.
For this post about combatting human trafficking in Montana I spoke with two people, a Democrat on the east side of the state, Penny Ronning, from the Yellowstone Human Trafficking Task Force and a Republican in Missoula, Brad Tschida, who is listed as a “director” at the LifeGuard Group.
The reason I reached out to Penny Ronning is because she’s one of the Montanans that local legacy media tapped for her reaction to the Epstein scandal. Here’s what Penny had to say:
In Yellowstone County, Penny Ronning, the co-founder and president of the Yellowstone Human Trafficking Task Force, said the national attention should spark deeper conversations at the local level.
“What we’re seeing at really the global level with the Epstein case, it is a reflection on every community and those power structures in place,” said Ronning. “I want the files released. Every decent human being should want these files released. However, we should want righteous action to stop this type of violence in every community at every level.”
Wanting “righteous action” is NOT the same thing as wanting political action, which is what Montanans usually gets when it comes to fighting human trafficking in Big Sky Country. Here’s Penny expressing her concern about how politics influences this dire issue in Montana:
“Human trafficking, no matter where, it looks the same,” said Ronning. “What we have to get beyond is that money does not equate to moral, ethical goodness.”
She argues the national debate has increasingly politicized human trafficking, something she fears distracts from meaningful reforms.
“I see a lot of righteous anger, but I don’t see a lot of righteous action,” said Ronning.
How has the issue of human trafficking been politicized in Montana and what can someone like me do about it?
Money is the main vehicle politics has for corrupting “action” and, thanks to Oracle, Montana’s Governor has LOTS of money. Some of that money has gone to the LifeGuard Group and another organization, the Montana Meth Project, which I’ve exposed as being nothing more than political PR spin started by another Oracle Exec, Tom Siebel.
To understand how money influences action and controls narratives, back in 2014, Siebel used his Oracle money to fund a slick documentary for HBO about meth abuse, but I was skeptical even back then after hearing that one of the subjects of the movie–an addict–was seen getting drunk at the Missoula premier, held at the Wilma.
The Montana Meth Project’s newest anti-meth bullet is an hourlong documentary that will play to a national audience next month on HBO.
Besides the Montana lawmakers who got a glimpse of “Montana Meth” last month, those attending the opening of the Big Sky Documentary Film Festival this Thursday will be the first in the nation to view it. HBO has made it available free of charge.
The documentary ups the shock factor of the Montana Meth Project television, print, billboard and radio ads by a significant factor, showing Montana teens sticking needles in their arms and necks, pregnant meth addicts and a gruesome tooth extraction at the Women’s Prison in Shelby.
…
Yates, who made HBO’s 2003 “Crank: Made in America,” one of the first documentaries about rural meth use, fully supports the Montana Meth Project’s goals, calling billionaire Thomas Siebel’s anti-drug push “a fantastic educational campaign against meth.”
“Tom Siebel is one of the few people who puts his money where his mouth is,” Yates said. Siebel served as the executive producer of “Montana Meth.” Several states are now considering importing the Montana Meth Project ads, which have run in the media now for 16 months.
Now, 12 years later, I’m wondering if Tom Siebel might be the Oracle exec referenced in this email from Al Seckel to Jeffrey Epstein:
For more concrete numbers on the Gianforte money going to “non-profit” organizations, here’s a portion of the list, compiled by the Montana Free Press, that shows the accumulated donations to the LifeGuard Group, the Montana Meth Project, and the Butte Rescue Mission, among a few others:
When I talked to the Democrat and the Republican I didn’t just bash their political opponents with them, I explained how their own political parties were failing them. For Penny Ronning, that meant telling her about Klaus von Stutterheim and the walking, talking cultural malignancy known as Susan Hay Patrick. For Brad Tschida, I told him exactly how I was going to make fun of Lowell Hochhalter, the Missoula County Sheriff chaplain, CEO of the LifeGuard Group, and, I assume, planner of the extraction operation for a victim of human trafficking from a domestic abuse shelter, as told by the agency itself.
I wish I was making this shit up.
Before we get to the VERY EXCITING story of the victim extraction, I figured I should call the organizations I was writing about, so first I called the Montana Meth Project, several times, but their voicemail was full and I couldn’t leave a message. The LifeGuard Group, on the other hand, DID have the capacity to take messages, so I left a detailed one for them about the story I would be highlighting from their website, and my curiosity about who the retired Missoula County Sheriff’s Office guy was helping carry out the early dawn operation, since I know Lowell Hochhalter has good relationships with former deputies, like Tony Rio.
Ok, here’s the story. Brace yourself!
In early September, I received a call from Tami with an urgent request. Free America had reached out for assistance in the rescue of a woman and her children. For her safety, we will refer to her as Sara. She had fled from the east coast after years of being trafficked by her husband—a lower‐level shot caller in a violent, well‐structured criminal organization involved in narcotics, weapons, embezzlement, murder for hire, and human trafficking. The group operated across multiple states and beyond U.S. borders, known for their experience and brutality.
Sara had escaped and made her way to a larger Montana city, where she and her children found temporary refuge in a shelter for battered women. But her sense of safety was shattered when her husband sent her photos of their children playing at their school. He had found them again. Whether he was in town himself or had sent someone from his organization, the threat was immediate and credible. Sara contacted Free America, who in turn coordinated with Gideon Force to arrange an emergency private flight out of Montana.
Gideon Force dispatched a plane with two pilots and one security specialist from the Midwest. Free America then contacted The LifeGuard Group asking them to serve as the boots on the ground—responsible for extracting Sara and her children from the shelter and transporting them to an undisclosed airport for evacuation.
The call gave us less than 20 hours to plan and execute the operation. With the strong likelihood that the shelter was under surveillance, this could not be a simple transport. It required a precise, time‐sensitive extraction with multiple layers of security. I immediately contacted a close friend who had recently retired from the local Sheriff’s Office, and together we began building the plan. Three additional individuals with security experience joined the effort. We spent several hours conducting counter‐surveillance around the shelter and mapping primary and contingency routes to the airport.
That evening, the Gideon Force team arrived, and we met with the pilots to finalize the operational plan.
At 3:00 a.m., the team moved into position along the route to provide rolling surveillance. At 4:00 a.m., Tami and I arrived at the shelter. Staff had been briefed and were ready. Sara and her children were waiting with their bags packed. Before departure, we used a scanning device to check their belongings and bodies for tracking devices—a common tactic used by traffickers. As Tami conducted the scan, Sara nervously shared that she had received another message from her husband that night. He claimed he knew where she was and that he and his crew were in town to retrieve her. We relayed this immediately to the team. One of the children’s toys triggered a positive scan for a tracking device. With our departure window closing, we had no time for further analysis. The toy was removed, and we prepared to move.
At 4:20 a.m., after a final bathroom break and instructions to the children to remain quiet, we loaded into the vehicle. At 4:32 a.m., we rolled out. The counter‐surveillance team quickly confirmed that we had exited clean with no tail. Sara was anxious—she had been found before and understood exactly what her husband and his organization were capable of. Tami stayed close, reassuring her throughout the drive.
5:30 a.m., we arrived safely at the airport. Sara and her children boarded the plane, and once they were secured inside, our team stood together on the tarmac and watched the aircraft lift into the early morning sky. It was a quiet moment—no celebration, just a shared sense of purpose and relief. After a long pause, Tami said softly, “Well, we did something good today.”
She was right. We had.
I’ll be writing another article soon about this very problematic “non-profit”–examined critically last September by a reporter from the Missoulian after claims from a survivor came out–that will continue to sound the alarm about the nature of WHO is fighting human trafficking in Montana and HOW they are going about doing it.
I first came across the name “Rahman Hosain” when I put the surname “Engstrom” into the DOJ search bar, looking for references to Royce Engstrom, the former President of the University of Montana, and finding Hosain’s partner, Alicia Engstrom, instead. When I went looking for more context I found the financial flop of Hosain’s tech company, Jawbone, and an unhappy investor, Jeffrey Epstein. Interesting.
The Forbes article that provided this context first discusses one of Epstein’s most important tech connections, Peter Thiel, and Valar Ventures, which I mentioned in this post about Missoula’s Mayor, Andrea Davis, and her globalist tendencies, which publicly emerged when she eagerly traveled to Harvard to get her Mayoral marching orders.
One of Epstein’s earliest and most prolific correspondents in tech was PayPal founder and Founders Fund investor Peter Thiel. Epstein swapped scores of emails with the conservative investor dating back to 2014, and the pair appear to have met for meals at least eight times through 2017, according to emails in the DOJ archive. Epstein floated invitations for dinner with academic Noam Chomsky, director Woody Allen and former Norwegian diplomat Terje Rød-Larsen over email, and offered intros to the likes of former Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak and former Russian deputy economy minister Sergey Belyakov, the emails show. On multiple occasions, Epstein invited Thiel to his island. “Im always free to do as i please,” Epstein wrote in 2014. “would you prefer to visit the island or i can meet in ny.” Thiel’s spokesperson Jeremiah Hall said Thiel never traveled to the island and did not comment further on the billionaire venture capitalist’s dealings with Epstein.
The Founders Fund is why Peter Thiel, Sam Altman and Elon Musk were in Montana last June, just north of Missoula, which I covered here. I also wrote about Andrew Farkas, another Epstein-connected man with deep pockets, enjoying the same geography as the PayPal Mafia, and his potential connection to a guy by the name of Klaus von Stutterheim, a Berlin-born banker from New York who moved to Montana to ride horses and tell Missoula County voters what Democrat to vote for.
So far I am the ONLY ONE to have publicly connected Klaus von Stutterheim to what I believe was, at the time, a local Democrat influence operation tied to the wider world of Epstein influence in Big Sky Country.
Further down in the Forbes piece we learn about the company Jawbone and how this surveillance tech went belly up:
The files indicate that Epstein also backed Jawbone, the failed fitness tracker and headset company, which went under in 2017. Investment documents released by the DOJ, which call him a “major investor,” indicate he lost his full investment of $10 million. In a tense August 2018 email exchange with cofounder and CEO Hosain Rahman, Epstein demanded a settlement. “It is simple,” he wrote. “The obligation is yours. If you had a current net worth of over 100 million I would without a doubt use my resources to recover the monies that you received from me.”
Rahman replied, “I absolutely acknowledge that I made mistakes while running the last business. I have learned a ton of painful lessons from those mistakes. Those mistakes were never intentional and I don’t agree that I misled you about your prior investment.” Rahman didn’t respond to a request for comment.
No comment, Rahman? Why not? Were you too busy hanging out with the kind of celebrities, like Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, who enjoy hanging out at the Yellowstone Club?
Because buying a house at this infamous resort is exactly what Rahman Hosain did, we will find out, with money lavished on his tech-vision by JP Morgan and other investors, like Jeffrey Epstein.
First, here’s what the good times were like for Hosain, Gates, and anyone else enjoying those Yellowstone “boat parties”:
Yes, things must have been looking GREAT in 2012. The tech pal of the Bodnars, Jim Messina, had just helped Obama get reelected, a Pritzker was selected as “commerce” secretary, and life was good for child-fucking psychopaths. Then Jawbone took a massive face-plant, which this Axios piece details:
Last week’s news of Jawbone filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy was met with a collective shrug from most in Silicon Valley, likely because the company’s failure took absolutely no one by surprise. But many of its investors are quietly fuming. Some because they’ve been unable to get information from Jawbone about the liquidation plans, or if Jawbone co-founder and CEO Hosain Rahman plans to bid on some of the assets for his new startup (which also will focus in some way on healthcare wearables). Some just because of the size of the loss and frustration over what they believe was profligate spending on things like private jets while the company struggled to meet its product delivery goals.
The article continues by describing the litigation that JP Morgan initiated when it became clear Jawbone was finished. Here’s the part (screenshot) about the bank’s loan to Rahman and Engstrom for the Yellowstone Club property.
When you read this Axios article it’s important to note that it was written in 2017, so of course there is “fascination” that Rahman “hasn’t become a Silicon Valley pariah”. In 2026 we know better, or at least we SHOULD.
If we DON’T know better, why would that be? Perhaps because legacy media in Montana stopped at the dinosaur dude, Jack Horner, while some Great Falls Facebook page puts out AI-written slop while shit-talking “conspiracy blog posts”.
Perhaps “The Weekly Bust” can help us understand why the globalist child-fuckers felt it was finally the right time to release the files. What I realized, after reading their slop, is that human cognition has become SO FUCKED by an over-reliance on large language models, the combined effect of legacy media silence and whatever The Weekly Bust thinks they’re doing ensures NOTHING substantive will happen to address how poisoned our entire system has become by the depraved appetites of wealth and power.
I went to the Facebook Page to interact with these geniuses and here’s a little peek into what we can expect from “alt-media” in Montana:
No wonder people with money move to places like Montana to establish their fiefdoms, our local populations are woefully disadvantaged when it comes to understanding the depth of what we’re dealing with. Sigh.
When you understand how important narrative control is, shows like Scarpetta become more than entertainment to enjoy; they create the literal framework through which your mind perceives reality, and this effect deepens the more realistic these shows become.
With a little critical thinking and basic understanding of human nature, a discerning viewer might be able to further see that deeper levels of analysis exist when you apply the idea that people involved in doing things they’re not supposed to be doing are capable of using a wide range of techniques to avoid detection, like speaking in code, for example.
Nicole Kidman fighting for truth as a fictional medical examiner is a sick joke being played on a traumatized public that can’t fathom the scope and scale of what Epstein represents, like the fact plenty of WOMEN have benefited from the vast criminal conspiracy that was less a blackmail operation than it was a coordinated effort at making an insane power play to control the future of human development.
This coming week I think I’m going to revisit my scrutiny of human trafficking and dead bodies in Montana, along with the “fight” supposedly being fought by the “good guys”, in order to highlight why eating our local version of Scarpetta means dealing with coroners, not medical examiners. If you’ve binge-watched this show, like I did, then you’ll know Kidman’s character LAUGHS at the mention of the word “coroner”. Full disclosure: I laughed to.
In the show only Scarpetta thinks there’s a serial killer killing women, and one way this is covered up by authorities is by exploiting the demarcation line of turf when the dead woman’s corpse is found to be straddling jurisdictions, with her upper torso and head submerged in water. It’s kind of like the Rebekah Barsotti case and the games played by BOTH Mineral and Missoula County Sheriff Offices.
Personally, considering I was WAY TOO CLOSE to that case, I should have remembered the function of Nicole Kidman in Kubrick’s last movie, Eyes Wide Shut, and the likelihood that her role at the end was to distract Tom Cruise’s character as their children are taken away by the cult.
In Scarpetta the dead woman’s death is called an accident for the career aspirations of the other medical examiner, and he was rewarded by the Governor for maintaining the illusion of safety for tourists. Hmmm, I said to myself, that certainly sounds familiar.
With Missoula authorities not able to publicly identify a dead body four months now after it was found down the Kim Williams trail, and with the disinterest shown to me last week for an hombre’s fun time with mojitos and a young girl in a towel, I’m glad I kept the photo double of the hombre so I can ask around the scattered encampments about this dude, and introduce myself to any new faces that might be appearing to be “studied” by this valley’s best LARP, the University of Montana campus.
