The Epstein files grant us a rare glimpse into the kind of machinations that must be happening all the time. As @bylinetimes.bsky.social reveals, Trump's fixer, Steve Bannon, helped Boris Johnson overthrow Theresa May. Blatant foreign interference in our politics. 🧵 bylinetimes.com

Bannon, Epstein, Farage and Johnson and the Plot to 'Topple' Theresa May

bylinetimes.com

Those who most loudly assert their patriotism are always the first to sell us down the river. Both Johnson and Nigel Farage were in active discussions with Bannon, for whom Brexit was a major prize. Bannon was feeding intelligence back to Epstein, who also wanted the UK out of the European Union. It's a reminder that Brexit had nothing to do with our interests. It was an elite project backed by extreme rightwing billionaires and their concierges, many of whom had no vote or standing in this country. Yet it was packaged as patriotism by the very people collaborating with foreign interests. It's all part of the same story: these political manipulations sit alongside the industrial-scale abuse and rape of women and children by the Epstein network. Ordinary humans are simply objects to them, to be conned, exploited, extracted, destroyed and discarded as convenience dictates. Don't imagine for one moment that it ended with Epstein. Treating human beings as counters in a board game is what the super-rich do. Every. Day. It is fundamental to the model. The politicians they support and fund are those who implement their cruel desires. theguardian.com

At the root of all our problems stands one travesty: politicians’ surrender to the super-rich | George Monbiot

The life's work of anyone who gives a damn about humanity is to resist the economic elite, demand the taxes that reduce their power and defend the space in which the rest of us can thrive. If your "elected representatives" aren't helping with that, they are not your representatives, but theirs. The thread on one page: skywriter.blue Thank you
