Jeffrey Epstein's tunnels on Lolita Island and the US Virgin Islands Pizza Pi Girls

Apollo Global Management donated less than $25K to the Clinton Foundation BUT it's managing partner Leon Black donated as much as $250,000 to the Clinton Foundation...Some of the businessmen who dine with him at his home—they include newspaper publisher Mort Zuckerman, banker Louis Ranieri, Revlon chairman Ronald Perelman, real-estate tycoon Leon Black [Apollo Global], former Microsoft executive Nathan Myhrvold, Tom Pritzker (of Hyatt Hotels), and real-estate personality Donald Trump—sometimes seem not all that clear as to what he actually does to earn his millions. Certainly, you won’t find Epstein’s transactions written about on Bloomberg or talked about in the trading rooms. “The trading desks don’t seem to know him. It’s unusual for animals that big not to leave any footprints in the snow,” says a high-level investment manager. ...

More on Ray Dalio and Bridgewater :

James Comey is in WIKILEAKS. - "The mind control is working."

DIG INTO BRIDGEWATER. RAY DALIO. COMEY. Wikileaks email ID: 101404....

"JAMES BAKER"....hmmmmmmmmmmm

Baker was hired by James B. Comey at Bridgewater Associates, LP (2010-2013) as Comey's Associate General Counsel (2012-2014). When Comey left Bridgewater to become Obama's FBI director, he received $9.9 million in compensation, which Baker would have signed off on.

comey is all sorts of shadey since childhood. look into what supposedly happened to him as a teenager. suspicious AF.

Judgejewdy ago

btw, all these people have suspicious backgrounds. shadey guy in politics? look at his/her family. i've taken to doing this with all of them. bc let's face it, everyday people don't get into positions of power. and we all know it's not what you know it's who you know. generally i see either a person with a family background in military, law (judges), or financing. shocking right? and for the ones whose parents ran a paint store off main street in noname town usa- bullshit. gotta know someone, somehow. epstein is especially suspicious. goes from dropping out of volege to teaching high school math to wall street trader by 25 to running his own company 5 years later. as i, the great judge jewdy says, if it doesn't make sense it isn't true. and the links can generally be traced back through family connections. for every damn one of them.

Voat posts re Bridgewater Associates:

Comey/Clinton connected to Costa Rica/Australia plane crashes this week

After he left government, Comey spent three years being grilled, or “probed,” as an executive at Bridgewater Associates.. It looks like James Comey basically worked for Bridgewater before he worked in the FBI under Obama, and Bridgewater's Associates Executive Bruce Steinberg was killed this week with his whole family in a Costa Rica plane crash. The Clinton's are actually connected to the death of Compass Group CEO Richard Cousins who also died this week along with four others in a plane crash in Australia.

The Compass Group provided full-service LEED recertification consulting to the Clinton Foundation to assist them with achieving LEED-EB Platinum recertification for the William J. Clinton Presidential Library, located in Little Rock, AR. The153,779 sq. ft. William J. Clinton Presidential Library, a part of the National Archives, has been designated as one of the most energy efficient and environmentally friendly places to work in the United States by the U.S. Green Buildings Council under its Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Green Building Program.
