War against Venezuela is yet another smoke screen to divert attention from Epstein's files.

Tess's avatar

Venezuela is a convenient distraction because Trump wants their vast oil supply.

Betsy Borkiewicz's avatar

That’s precisely what it’s about! But then the distraction allows the oligarchs getting away with murder literally while they get richer & richer but they can move to another place or country and grow bigger. They don’t need to live in America as it collapses. Epstein might be dead but the guilty go on & on while they already have raped America.

He & his Handlers could not be more CORRUPT‼️ They’re Criminals, Mafia & they are the true Cartel. Why are the tech bro’s building safe houses below ground? And what about the tunnel under the East Wing? Who needs a 90,000 sq.ft Ballroom in DC when he has Mar A Lago & Bedminster where they have big weddings & huge dinner events⁉️ Eveything is just a COVER UP for something more nefarious‼️

America has a history of looking away when it comes to not respecting girls, teens, and women by powerful men whether they are our fathers, brothers, uncles, teachers, coaches, doctors, or powerful men like Trump, Clinton, Sommers, or Bill Gates. Bottom line men do not respect women. Why? That is why we don't have a woman president.

You have nailed it perfectly 👌

Trump to this day, still insults and disrespects women reporters - all on film. Imagine what he's like when he knows there's no camera.

We scare the shit out of them. Threaten their imagined superiority. A few generations need to die off. The teens of today will chose a different path.

American men, but not all of us. Some. Not one I know is like that, including me— I took my wife’s name. Europe, Asia and UK have women who lead, and they are respected.

Misogyny is not limited to America, but it’s among the diseases we suffer from, a disease that RFK has not yet addressed— but it might be caused by Advil.

You are correct. I should not have stated it as an absolute fact. Much appreciation!

Always love Anand, he does excellent work.

Maybe the REAL reason for this mass mis-behavior of so-called elite men, is so all of them can belong to this Boy's Club, called Patriarchy, which loathes and uses women, called Misogeny. Seems pretty clear to most women. Ben, would love to hear a smart woman analyze Anand's opinion piece on your show. I'm sure the analysis would be VERY different.

Marcia's avatar

Now that they know they can't hide from us, the rich are just normalizing their disgusting, immoral behavior. But oh ya. They're Christian. 😡

Lorraine's avatar

I think many women have been aware of this for years. We live it everyday.

Valerie Brant-Wilson's avatar

What they have in common is exploitation.

Theresa's avatar

Just because you are elite doesn't mean they are not depraved!

Mimi Iannillo's avatar

Ola from Massachusetts. I visited Puerto Rico several years ago. Such a beautiful country! I really liked the ‘old Puerto Rico’. So peaceful there.

Manuel Olmo's avatar

Si, muchas gracias! T’is where I was born🎂!

Mimi Iannillo's avatar

Such beautiful beaches! I don’t like the casinos, not my thing. But that little square in Old Puerto Rico, listening to the pigeons as they hunt for ‘treats’. That’s my thing

Mimi Iannillo's avatar

I’ve been to - I’m going to spell this wrong - Aguadilla

TY Ben & Anand your 💯 spot on.

Laura Beyer's avatar

He's talking about having empathy. Empathy goes hand in hand with inclusiveness, tolerance, connection. We are all connected. The return of the feminine principle, which is in all of us, will bring back a much needed balance for civilization.

Aren’t redacted pages of the Epstein tampering with evidence? Are the survivors ever going to get justice?

Valerie Brant-Wilson's avatar

Women must learned that they must not accept the Stephord wives concept or being pimped by a man to receive materialistic things to make them feel valued.

"People with a history of looking away from pain." The examples of other ways they have was so helpful Such a powerful revelation, Anand, that you have looked into this "heart of darkness" and see what it holds. Thank you so much for doing all this hard work (for ex., 5 days of email review!) to get to these revelations. So good to hear and understand the truth.

Donald Trump was selling patronage to MAGA in this system, and had no intention of following through. We have a class of Jethros who voted for Mr. Drysdale.

Libby's avatar

Great interview. Very informative and well presented. Thank you!!

Sonya P Nazaruk's avatar

Thank you MTN for all the reports letting us know what the real truth is and how everything is changing and not for the better. Stand strong and united and we'll get through this and hopefully rebuild a better US and governing party. Love from a west coast Canuck

They look away so they can stay rich.
