Since beginning my journey with Alisa, my brain itches and I often feel nauseous.

If you've not yet met Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez, I encourage you to read her introduction to herself.

https://alisav.substack.com/p/origin-of-the-pugilist-why-i-was?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share

Below is her latest piece presenting her "informed speculation" about a spy network "hiding in plain sight."

I also encourage you to read Alisa's well documented, annotated and dots-connected body of work on all things Epstein.

As is said, misery loves company. I'd enjoy having fellow travelers join me in supporting Alisa and spreading the word about her work. She has done a remarkable job in researching and connecting the dots. I worry about her safety.

I was already aware of some of the details and this provided quite a bit of gap-filling. I believe also if the Putin regime falls - depending on who gets the reins, it might be catastrophic for certain parties with an 'R' after their name. We need a Magyar here.

I can't even IMAGINE the horrors of being near the atom bomb testing ground. Governments constantly f*ck us up quietly, then lie about the problems they themselves have caused.

detonated about 29 miles from the ditch. He described the light as "going through you and lightening up your insides."

The purpose of the G.I.'s in the ditches was to see how soldiers would respond to being attacked with nuclear weapons. No lead apron like your dentist gives you. Just the soldiers and fatigues.

Said when the explosion came, “you could hold your hand up, and see right through it, just like you were looking at an x-ray.”

"If the Epstein archive passed from Israeli and CIA control to Russian control through Shuliak, Barr and Trump — if Moscow now holds kompromat on the full spectrum of Western political and financial power (and might protect Trump for helping them obtain it) — then the Trump-Russia relationship and the Epstein story are the same narrative. And that narrative is part of a larger story about how many sectors of the United States have been bloodlessly conquered by both Israeli and Russian intelligence operations, at different points and time, using many of the same players and systems, without Americans realizing it happened."
