Weeks after Jeffrey Epstein died in federal custody in 2019 awaiting prosecution on sex-trafficking charges, JPMorgan Chase filed a report alerting the US government to tens of millions of dollars of potentially suspicious transactions involving him and prominent Wall Street and business figures. The suspicious activity reports that JPMorgan filed transactions with Leon Black, Glenn Dubin, Alan Dershowitz; and trusts controlled by Leslie Wexner. The nature of the transactions, as well as Mr. Epstein's role in them, is unclear. The JPMorgan report flagged about 4,700 transactions (over $1 billion) because they were potentially related to reports of human trafficking involving Mr. Epstein. That figures that Islamophobic Dummkopf Trumpf supporter Alan Dershowitz is implicated in this vile sex trafficking quagmire. In the UK, former Prince Andrew continues to be dunned, humiliated, and punished by the Royal Family for his ignoble and notorious conduct. read more


A classified US report has found that Israeli military units committed "many hundreds" of potential human rights violations in Gaza that will take "multiple years" to review. The findings mark the first time a USG report has acknowledged the scale of IDF actions in Gaza that fall under the purview of Leahy Laws, which bar funding to units credibly accused of such abuses. US officials said the watchdog findings raised doubts about the prospects for accountability for Israel's actions given the large backlog of incidents and the nature of the review process, which is immensely deferential to the IDF. The Trumpf junta has been working to fire non-partisan Inspectors-General (IGs) from the USG and Empty Suit SECSTATE Marco Rubio recently shuttered the DOS portal to report war crimes: Vapid Marco Rubio Concealing IDF War Crimes. read more

  • Denied becoming US Ambassador to the UN by Dummkopf Trumpf, highly unpopular House Republican Elise Stefanik is preparing to launch a 2026 campaign for NYS governor. Stefanik has more than $13 million in cash on hand, more than any other NY House Republican in recent history, and is hiring a slate of veteran political operatives as she seeks to be NY first GOP governor since George Pataki. Ms. Stefanik was humiliated by her own constituents at a public ceremony in her CD: Stefanik Booed.
  • In the contest for NYC Mayor, Zohran Mamdani holds a 16-point lead among likely voters against Andrew Cuomo. Republican Curtis Sliwa trails in third place. If animal advocate Curtis Sliwa were to exit the race, Mamdani's lead would shrink to seven points. Without Cuomo in the contest, Mamdani's lead would widen to 26 points. read more


    Defense Intelligence Ukraine (DIU) informs: "On 25 Oct 2025, a car driven by war criminal Mazzherin Veniamin Vladimirovich exploded on the territory of the Kemerovo region of the aggressor state of the Russian Federation. Police Lieutenant Colonel Mazzherin, born in 1980, served in the special unit of the OMON "Obereg" of the Rosgvard Directorate in the Kemerovo region. Based on the collected evidence and eyewitness testimonies of the events, the Prosecutor General's Office opened criminal proceedings against the servicemen of the unit, in particular on the facts of violation of the laws and customs of war. The Defense Intelligence of Ukraine reminds that for every war crime committed against the Ukrainian people, there will be fair retribution." read more

    One AI overview on the American food market which is dominated by a small number of US corporations:

    Four corporations control about 85% of the national beef packing market, 85% of soybean processing, and 63% of pork packing: Cargill, Archer-Daniels Midland, Bunge, and Louis Dreyfus. Three companies control the entire $90 billion American chicken industry: Tyson, Pilgrim's Pride, and Perdue.
    Four retail giants control 65% of the grocery retail market: Walmart, Costco, Kroger, and Ahold Delhaize.
    Five to ten major food manufacturers control an average of 64% of all grocery sales, with the top four firms often controlling 40% or more of market share for nearly 80% of grocery items: Kraft Heinz, General Mills, Conagra, Unilever, and Delmonte.

    In summary, the American food market is highly concentrated, with a handful of corporations controlling the majority of production, processing, and retail.

    US GDP per capita is $85,809.90, yet 38 million Americans live at or below the poverty line, which represents roughly 11.6% of the population. Meanwhile, the average salary for CEOs of the major US food corporations is exceptionally high.

    The average total compensation for CEOs at the 350 largest publicly traded US companies, including food and beverage giants, was about $22.98 million in 2024, up 6% from the previous year. For example, Coca-Cola's CEO received $54.5 million in total compensation for 2022, while Wendy's CEO was paid $17.3 million in 2023. McDonald's CEO earned around $18.2 million in 2025, and Starbucks' CEO made $96 million for just four months of work.

    FYI: The numbers seem to be off regarding the number of Sinaloa members arrested by DEA: www.dea.gov

    I guess Dummkopf Trumpf pardoned the 6 Jan white supremacists to make room for the brownies and -------.
