PUBLISHERS FOREWORD

PROSPERO: But you, my brace of lords, were I so minded,

I here could pluck his highness frown upon you

And justify you traitors: at this time

I will tell no tales.

SEBASTIAN: The devil speaks in him.

William Shakespeare, The Tempest, Act 5, Scene 1

I want something embarrassing! Something sexual! Little boys, midgets, that sort of thing! Cows! I dont give a goddamn!

Sam Elliott as Kermit Newman, The Contender

Wheres my Roy Cohn?

Donald Trump, New York Times, January 4, 2018

W hy do folks lie, cheat and steal? Is it simply the survival of the fittest? What about our rule of law and the hoary moral codes left to us? Are they worth the paper they are printed on? Will we ever learn?

Whitney Webb takes us on a hidden history excursion beyond the realm of the gatekeepers delving into a deep netherworld where disgraceful actions seemingly trump noble principles. One Nation Under Blackmail: The Sordid Union Between Intelligence and Crime that Gave Rise to Jeffrey Epstein is a tour de force. A deep expos into how the world actually works.

I will never forget my introduction to this underworld: a talk with my spooky father and his professor friend from Vanderbilt. It was a reality beyond my ken, way further than my teen-age experience. So I simply went on with growing up, but looking in the dark corners.

My education was through reading, magazine articles and books so many books. There was much going on in the late 1960s and 70s. My father and his friend had talked about an activity I call CIA-Drugs, and about political forces, using psychological warfare to move agendas.

It soon became apparent that within this milieu there were many players: intelligence agencies and their operatives, criminal gangs, secret societies, bag men, money launderers, financial institutions and governments.

As my studies into intelligence matters and protocols progressed, I became aware of honey-traps and the use of blackmail to compromise individuals and stilt honest political discourse. It floored me that there were, it appeared, federal agents running interference to some of the operations. Where was the country and the values I had been taught? How did we get here?

Its far more constructive to work for the church than to work for the Central Intelligence Agency. When you work for the CIA the ends justify the means, my father was quoted in a local paper a few years before his passing.

Immoral methods skew our futures and lead to imbalance. Leaving us ruled by rich men who are not quite respectable.

British historian Eric Hobsbawm opined, He [Roy Cohn] made his legal and political career in a milieu where money and power override rules and law indeed where the ability to get, and get away with, what lesser citizens cannot, is what proves membership of an elite.

A corrupt elite debasing our future. Trying to bully us into their depravity. With this book and others we can become educated and empowered to right our ship-of-state.

Whitney has done her homework and A Nation Under Blackmail shows with great alacrity the past actions, present situations, and future problems that we face. And must deal with in order to fulfill our founders aspirations, foster current needs, and forsee our childrens future.

A blackmailer believes that they are in control, but secrets can cut many ways, and ultimately we are in the drivers seat. What will we do?

Onwards to the Utmost of Futures!

Peace,

CONTENTS

INTRODUCTION, VOLUME 1

T he July 2019 arrest of Jeffrey Epstein and his subsequent death that August brought national as well as international attention to a sex ring where certain members of the power elite sexually abused and exploited female minors and young women. Epsteins death, officially ruled a suicide, has been treated skeptically by many, for a variety of reasons. Regardless of the real circumstances of his death, it has led to scores of Americans embracing the view that his death was both intentional and necessary to protect his powerful co-conspirators and the full extent of his covert and illegal activities.

Even if one chooses not to entertain such disconcerting possibilities, it is quite apparent that most of those who aided or enabled Epstein will never see the inside of a prison cell. Though Ghislaine Maxwell is now serving a 20 year sentence, others known to have been intimately involved in his illegal activities continue to enjoy protection from the so-called sweetheart deal, or plea deal that followed Epsteins first run-in with the law for his sex trafficking activities in the mid-2000s. In addition, Ghislaine Maxwells recent trial saw information involving third parties redacted, leading many to believe that the public will never know the names of the johns or clients, who benefitted from the sex trafficking activities of Epstein and Maxwell and who were potentially blackmailed by them.

Yet, for both Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, there is much more to the story. This became apparent when it emerged that Alex Acosta, then-serving as Secretary of Labor in the Trump administration, had disclosed to the Trump transition team that he had previously signed off on Epsteins sweetheart deal because Epstein had belonged to intelligence. Acosta, then serving as US attorney for Southern Florida, had also been told by unspecified figures at the time that he needed to give Epstein a lenient sentence because of his links to intelligence. When Acosta was later asked if Epstein was indeed an intelligence asset in 2019, Acosta chose to neither confirm or deny the claim.

Other hints of a connection between Epstein and intelligence subsequently emerged, with reporting from a variety of sources that Epstein was affiliated with the CIA, Israeli intelligence, or both. Despite the implications and significance of these connection(s) to intelligence, most of mainstream media declined to dig deeper into these claims, instead largely focusing on the salacious aspects of the Epstein case. The narrative soon became that Epstein was an anomaly, the sole mastermind of an industrial sex trafficking enterprise and a talented con artist. Even his closest associates and benefactors, like retail billionaire Leslie Wexner, have been taken at their word that they knew nothing of Epsteins crimes, even when there is considerable evidence to the contrary.
