As Clare Bronfman awaits sentencing for her role in NXIVM, prosecutors on Monday alleged the Seagram’s heiress went to extreme lengths to protect the sex cult’s leader—including sending “threatening letters” and attempting to file criminal charges against women who alleged they were branded and manipulated into master-slave relationships. “When I was at my most vulnerable, Clare Bronfman traumatized me,” one former NXIVM member wrote in a […]
VENICE—It took two full hours to stop thinking about Kyle Rankin’s 109-minute masterful mindfuck called Run Hide Fight, named after the mantra kids are taught to remember in order to survive school shootings in America. But the film is surprisingly not really about school shootings. It doesn’t even have an anti-gun slant, and instead opens with a scene of a teenage girl, in mourning over the […]
Netflix has addressed a wave of condemnation directed at its new release ‘Cuties,’ defending the film as a “powerful” social commentary while hitting back at irate critics who say the movie sexualizes young girls.

After […]

After she was done there was dead silence and then some women only on a screen appeared and she waved at them.It did not look like they could see her because they did not react.

On the first night of its national convention, the Democratic Party has sought to cash in on months of raging protests over police brutality to sell 2020 nominee Joe Biden, trotting out George Floyd’s relatives at the event. “George had a giving spirit, a spirit that has shown up on streets around our nation and around the world. People of all races, all ages, all genders, […]
Nothing could have been more obvious: Michael Cohen’s First Amendment rights and his freedom had been denied him because Donald Trump didn’t want his ex-lawyer mouthing off to the press. It didn’t matter that Cohen hadn’t violated the terms of his probation. I’m happy for Michael that he’ll be returned to his wife and family shortly, after a judge ruled this week that what was obvious […]
VT: it goes 1000 times past Trump’s calling Nelson Mandela a “monkey” or using the term “kike.” Cohen has told us, time and time again, that he silenced 500 people for Trump and Jane Doe was one of them, there were others, all tied to Jeffrey Epstein and the 15 years they spent together, which VT has sources on. They paid models $10,000 to provide cover […]
The prime minister’s chief adviser has declined to explain the reason for the payments to Faculty, made in instalments over two years, and the firm itself is also remaining tight-lipped on the question. A private company owned and controlled by Dominic Cummings paid over a quarter of a million pounds to Faculty, the artificial intelligence firm that worked on the Vote Leave campaign, The Guardian has […]
They’ve got Ghislaine Maxwell in the same place. Is Barr going to tell us they ‘shanked’ each other??? Cohen was asked by press to verify what Mary Trump wrote about her sicko uncle and Cohen agreed to oblige. We expect the same Israeli paid assassins that really killed Jeff Epstein to take out Cohen as well and do it very quickly. We think we all deserve […]

The image of a white police officer, Derek Chauvin, kneeling on the neck of a Black man, George Floyd, for 8 minutes and 46 seconds has been etched into the American consciousness. But for many Asian-Americans like myself, there’s another lingering image from that fatal encounter—the face of the Asian officer who stood by and did nothing as Floyd was violently choked to death. That officer […]

A conflict directly related to the establishment of Israel by “secular Jews” who do not even believe in “G-d” but believe in the “Promise land.” The […]

At the […]
