Epstein’s Cellmate Told There Will be a “Price to Pay” if He Talks

Begs to be transferred to another jail.

Jeffrey Epstein’s former cellmate claims he was told there would be a “price to pay” if he talked about the sex trafficker’s alleged suicide and is begging to be transferred to another jail.

Ex-cop Nicholas Tartaglione shared a cell with Epstein during his first suicide attempt but the two were separated before Epstein hanged himself on August 10.

Now Tartaglione is requesting a transfer because he says prison guards have been threatening him and telling him to “stop talking.”

“The clear message Mr. Tartaglione has received is that if he conveys information about the facility or about [Epstein’s] recent suicide, there will be a price to pay,” reads a letter from Tartaglione’s lawyer Bruce Barket. “Whether or not the investigators into the suicide chose to interview Mr. Tartaglione about the attempted suicide to which he was witness or about how the facility is run and the conditions under which the inmates are forced to live, the correction officers know he has information potentially very damaging to the very people now charged with guarding him or their coworkers.”

Epstein’s suicide has now largely disappeared from the headlines, with many of the high profile clients he provided “services” for breathing...

Siege at Ruby Ridge: The Forgotten History of the ATF Shootout That Started a Militia Movement

The Siege at Ruby Ridge is often considered a pivotal date in American history. The shootout between Randy Weaver and his family and federal agents on August 21, 1992, is one that kicked off the Constitutional Militia Movement and left America with a deep distrust of its leadership – in particular then-President Bill Clinton and Attorney General Janet Reno.

The short version is this: Randy Weaver and his wife Vicki moved with their four kids to the Idaho Panhandle, near the Canadian border, to escape what they thought was an increasingly corrupt world. The Weavers held racial separatist beliefs, but were not involved in any violent activity or rhetoric. They were peaceful Christians who simply wanted to be left alone.

Specifically for his beliefs, Randy Weaver was targeted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) in an entrapping “sting” operation designed to gain his cooperation as a snitch. When he refused to become a federal informant, he was charged with illegally selling firearms. Due to a miscommunication about his court date, the Marshal Service was brought in, who laid siege to his house and shot and killed his wife and 14-year-old son.

Randy Weaver was, in many ways, a typical American story. He grew up in an Iowa farming community. He got decent grades in high school and played football. His family attended church regularly. He dropped out of community college and joined the United States Army in 1970. After three years of service, he was honorably discharged.

One month later he married Victoria Jordison. He then enrolled in the University of Northern Iowa, studying criminal justice with an eye toward becoming an FBI Agent. However, he dropped out because the tuition was too expensive. He ended up working in a John Deere plant while his wife worked as a secretary before becoming a homemaker.

Both of the Weavers increasingly became apocalyptic in their view of the world. This, combined with an increasing emphasis on Old Testament-based Christianity, led them to seek a life away from mainstream America, a life of self-reliance. Vicki, in particular, had strong visions of her family surviving the apocalypse through life far away from what they viewed as a corrupt world. To that end, Randy purchased a 20-acre farm in Ruby Ridge, ID, and built a cabin there.

The land was purchased for $5,000 in cash and the trade of the truck they used to move there. Vicki homeschooled the children.

The Weavers Move to Ruby Ridge

After moving to Ruby Ridge, Weaver became acquainted with members of the Aryan Nations in nearby Hayden Lake. He even attended some rallies. The FBI believed his involvement in the church was much deeper than it actually was – they thought he was a regular congregant of the Aryan Nations and had attended the Aryan Nations World Congress.

Both Randy and Vicki were interviewed by the FBI in 1985, with Randy denying membership in the group, citing profound theological differences. Indeed, the Weavers (who had some points of agreement with the Aryan Nations, primarily about the importance of the Old Testament) mostly saw their affiliation with the Aryan Nations as a social outlet. Living off-grid, the nearby members of the Aryan Nations were neighbors in remote northern Idaho.

Later, in 1986, Randy was approached at a rally by undercover ATF informant Kenneth Faderley, who used a biker alter ego of Gus Magisono and was currently monitoring and investigating Weaver’s friend Frank Kumnick. Faderley introduced himself as an illegal firearms dealer from New Jersey. Randy later encountered Faderley at the World Congress of 1987. He skipped the next year’s Congress to run for county sheriff, an election that he lost.

The ATF claims that in 1989, Faderley purchased two illegally shortened shotguns from Randy Weaver. However, Weaver disputes this, saying that the shotguns he sold Faderley were entirely legal and were shortened after the fact. The notes from the case show that Faderley purchased the guns and showed Weaver where to shorten them, which would constitute illegal entrapment. What’s more, the government preyed on the destitute...

Misfud and Halper Cop to Being Agents Tasked With Targeting Trump People: Who Gave the Order?

Huge. Just huge. Stefan Halper was working for the FBI when he targeted Michael Flynn. And Maltese professor Joseph Misfud was no Russian asset when it came to the seditious Trump-Russia Collusion conspiracy.

But who hired them?
Joseph Misfud, Western Intelligence

Lawyers for Misfud have confirmed to The Hill’s John Solomon and to congressional investigators their client worked for Western intelligence, not Russia, as the FBI and Mueller Report long inferred. According to Solomon, Misfud was tasked with connecting Trump campaign adviser George Papadapoulos to Russia in effort to show Trump-Russia collusion. Not establishing a connection. Not confirming a connection. Not even investigating a possible connection. Actually creating a connection.

In other words, staging a scenario which the Obama Administration would spin as a justification for spying on the Trump campaign.

Solomon revealed his latest findings on Fox News’ Sunday Morning Futures show:

Well, I interviewed Mr. Misfud’s lawyer the other day, Stefan Rowe, and he told me and also provided me some deposition evidence to both Congress and myself that his client was being directed and long worked with Western intelligence. And he was being directed specifically, he was asked to connect George Papadopoulos to Russia, meaning it was an operation, some form of intelligence operation. That was the lawyer’s own words for this. If that’s the case that means the flash point the started the whole investigation was in fact manufactured from the beginning.

And they say Obama didn’t create any manufacturing jobs.
Dashing the Flash Point

We had long been told the FBI’s counter-intelligence “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation into Trump-Russia Collusion was launched because of Papadopoulus. The basic story is this:

Papadapoulous meets with suspected Russian agent Joseph Misfud.Misfud tells George P. the Russians had Hillary’s emails and planned to release them to damage the Hillary campaign.

George P. later repeats this information to Australian diplomat Alexander Downer over drinks in London.

When Wikileaks released DNC and Podesta emails, Downer remembers the conversation with Papadapoulos. The next day he tells Aussie intelligence, who immediately notified U.S. intelligence.

“OMG, The Trump Campaign had pre-knowledge of the Russian hack! Trump’s in bed with the Ruskies!’ And a counter-intelligence investigation is launched.

Simple enough. Except this is all a fiction. Staged. Every step. Bob Fosse didn’t choreograph so carefully. Obviously, if Misfud isn’t a Russian asset, the dominoes collapse. Just a couple guys yapping a bunch of hearsay. Nothing that would justify spying on an opposition campaign. And if Misfud was actually sent by a Western intelligence agency to feed information to Papadapoulos as part of a plan to frame Donald Trump? You’re at a whole new level of sinister.

Let’s run through that list again:
