A Backstage Tour of The Pedophile Economy
In this episode of the Solari Report’s Money and Markets, hosts John Titus and Catherine Austin Fitts delve into the explosive revelations from the recently released Epstein Files, providing an in-depth backstage tour of what Titus describes as the “pedophile economy.” The discussion highlights how Jeffrey Epstein’s extensive network spanning billionaires, politicians, academics, and media elites has come to light through three million DOJ-released documents, with another tranche still withheld. The hosts examine the two layers of documents—those released but redacted to avoid showing images of death and abuse, and those purportedly not collected during the raids on Epstein’s properties. They also explore the implications of Israel’s deep involvement in Epstein’s network, connections to major political figures like the Clintons and Trump, and how the Epstein network has potentially fueled global infrastructure projects using laundered money. Further discussions range from geopolitical turmoils, the intricacies of the dollar’s dominance, private credit risks, and the controversial Trump administration’s equity stakes in critical U.S. companies. The episode concludes with the latest on Ukraine, the dire status of cryptocurrency, environmental health hazards like glyphosate, and inspiring acts of defiance—including New Mexico’s truth commission on Epstein, and the journey of Buddhist monks walking for peace.

Where are Musk’s humanoid robots actually showing up besides on stage?
I have seen the Chinese bots, which aren’t actually autonomous but remote controlled cars on legs. However, they are real with many homemade videos etc.
But where are the Tesla bots? You can’t learn to use them unless there are lots of them being tested in actual applications. Right now they seem to be vaporware.
There is huge societal danger in placing these bots around. If a hacker gets a hold of your phone, it can turn on the gas on your kitchen stove and walk away, but a hacked humanoid robot could. If they are built on LLM AI, it would be super easy to hack.
The following is a copy and paste from X. Excuse the length, but I think everyone will find it interesting. Btw, can anyone verify this?

🔺PAM BONDI JUST PLAYED THE GREATEST TRAP IN POLITICAL HISTORY.
And Congress walked right into it.
Yesterday, Attorney General Pam Bondi sat before the House Judiciary Committee. Standard oversight hearing. Routine questions.
Then she pulled out a document.
Labeled: “Jayapal Pramila — Search History.”
The room went SILENT.
⚠️ HERE’S WHAT HAPPENED
The DOJ gave Congress access to the unredacted Epstein files this week. Every member got their own login. Their own computer. Their own session.
What Congress didn’t know?
The DOJ was tracking EVERY SINGLE SEARCH.
Every name they looked up.
Every document they opened.
Every file they downloaded.
ALL OF IT. LOGGED.
And Bondi brought the receipts to the hearing.
🔺 THE PANIC WAS INSTANT
Rep. Jayapal called it “spying on members of Congress.”
Rep. Raskin accused Bondi of “blatant abuse of power.”
Rep. Moskowitz said it was “suspicious and inappropriate.”
They’re FURIOUS.
But here’s the question nobody in the media is asking:
Why are they so scared of their search history?
If you’re searching for evidence of crimes against children — you’d be PROUD of that search history.
Unless you’re not searching for evidence.
Unless you’re searching for YOUR OWN NAME.
⚡ THE GENIUS OF THE TRAP
Think about it.
Bondi didn’t just release the files.
She released them on MONITORED COMPUTERS.
Every Congress member who rushed to search the files just told the DOJ exactly:
• WHO they’re trying to protect
• WHAT names they’re worried about
• WHICH connections they’re trying to verify
The ones searching for “flights to the island” = investigators.
The ones searching for SPECIFIC NAMES = protectors.
Bondi now knows who’s investigating and who’s COVERING UP.
And she showed them she knows.
In front of cameras.
With a smile.
🔺 THE DHS SHUTDOWN — PERFECT TIMING
While Congress panics about their search history, DHS is shutting down SATURDAY.
Democrats blocked the funding bill. House members already left Washington.
The same week Congress gets caught searching Epstein files — they REFUSE to fund the department that investigates trafficking?
They’re not defunding DHS to save money.
They’re defunding it to STOP INVESTIGATIONS.
⚡ CONNECT THE DOTS
Monday: Congress gets Epstein file access.
Tuesday: Members frantically search for names.
Wednesday: Bondi reveals she tracked everything.
Thursday: Democrats block DHS funding.
Friday: Government shutdown begins.
Five days. One pattern. PANIC.
They walked into the hearing thinking they were in control.
They walked out knowing Bondi has EVERYTHING.
Every search. Every name. Every cover-up attempt.
Logged. Documented. WEAPONIZED.
The hunter became the hunted.
And they did it to themselves.
⟁ DARK TO LIGHT.

Not buying it. Yes, a factor. No way as important as the post is making out.
I thought Israel couldn’t stop any of the missiles with the iron dome was because they didn’t want to.
I think Bondi has pulled a page out of Mossad’s Epstein control file playbook. She can now threaten Congressmen unless they capitulate to Trump’s agenda. At what point does the blackmail strategy fail? I feel confident that those who were ‘busted’ by Bondi’s testimony will cower and work more to exact revenge, as will everyone who is watching closely.
Yes, she’s got a certain affiliation w/Mossad, doesn’t she? Makes sense to me!
Pam Bondi is an ACTRESS. Central Casting, just like Trump has said over and over. Whatever she says or does is scripted by an entirely separate “crew” working in the background, likely military, since this is ALL a military operation.
Interesting! If this is true – and I’d say it is – Bondi’s not likely to be the mastermind. Not to discredit a woman in power, but she strikes me as a fast-talking bimbo.
Also, considering how many are swamp creatures themselves, I don’t fully mind letting them out themselves. Anyone w/a a wit of sense would know that a closed terminal is a captured terminal; if they thought they were somehow off limits, I only have more “contempt of Congress.”
There’s another factor, heretofore unmentioned in the many Money & Market reports, that I believe plays an important role in the plots unfolding nationally and internationally: bankers need to make loans to make money. It might be time for a review of the foundational book on the subject of debt-based money as the life blood of bankers, “The Creature of Jekyll Island.”
Why would Trump want to destroy the country? Because it’s necessary to destroy the middle class as well as the non-compliant upper class to extract the submission of the masses required (e.g., threat of starvation, loss of income/home/children) to implement the digital control grid.
Why would Trump suggest a $6T golden dome project, doomed to fail? To generate debt-based money that is passed onto citizens in the form of inflation (hidden tax) to … destroy the middle class thus forcing them into control grid-submission.
Read the book! It reads like an interpretation of the front page of all major newspapers and every scrolling newsfeed, day in and day out.
Now, here’s what mighty interesting. The Fed and other global central banks, working through the IMF and the World Bank, have put every country in the world into a debt trap (i.e., more loans rolling over to continue the interest payments of those loans that are designed to be perpetually in default) except IRAN!
Iran has not had a dime of World Bank money for at least 20 years. Further, sanctions have starved it of debt-based money and onerous loans, leaving it to grow like a mighty oak in an abandoned field. Iran owes not a dime to the globalists that are using their central banks to issue debt-based fiat currencies to destroy and, thereby, control every other country in the world. Could that be the real problem with Iran and not the other inflammatory, if real, stuff?
I have as a hypothesis that Iran is being targeted by the Zionists and the USA not only because it is a nuclear arms power threat, not only because he has the capacity to bite off the head of Israel and stick it on a stake in Gaza, but because as a country the size of Europe it is not part of the debt-based central bankers’ globalist plan to form a one world government financed by one digital currency.
I rather think that that is precisely the problem underlying all the heated rhetoric about Iran.
I’ll take the bet that Trump does not instigate, either directly or indirectly, a war with Iran. Shutting the Straights of Hormuz is not worth a doomed attempt to destroy Iran on behalf of the IMF.
Israel may try to false-flag it, trumping Trump’s hand, but I’ll take the bet that the USA will fall short of a repeat of the 9/11-esque outrage to warrant another bloody war in the Gulf.
Amen, everyone.
Hope you are right. I think the chances are good. Trump will follow the plan – to swap Iran for freedom to rock and roll in the Americas. https://www.voltairenet.org/article223573.html. Trump does not have agency. So the question is who does. Does Netanyahu and his crew still have enough power to get one more attach on Iran. The regime change plan failed – had to be very embarrassing and frustrating for the Trump Administration.
Hi Catherine, Red button question. A few years ago I went through significant effort to change my support for my 401k that provides a modest cash flow. If lost by the control grid I will do what I can with love. Unless I missed something, you did not have any financial advisors that you would recommend. At the time you were providing instructions on how to pick a financial advisor and you did an interview with someone to help with this. This was too difficult for me I think. If I did follow the instructions well and picked a non-red-button financial advisor, would my value be climbing like the general market? Am I part of the majority or minority of your subscribers who would love to press the red button, but clarity of what this means and the realistic impact is not clear? I’m willing to live on much less and do much less if required, but that seems to be an oversimplification versus best way to manage things.
Hi Paul,
Have a look at Solari Investment Screens. In particular, the Solari World Fund, which Catherine screens and Parvin manages. Suspect companies weeded out. No expertise required. Simply a matter of transferring your 401k to an IRA and then investing in the fund. Parvin can walk you through every step. For me? Worth the fees. Feels great to no longer feed all manner of horrible companies that were in my index funds and to invest in productive companies with good governance.

In next week’s Equity Overview, Tim covers how to do a custom index fund. Will publish on Tuesday. Let me know if that and the related links help. If you have not read Coming Clean https://solari.com/coming-clean/
I am very much looking forward to this. At Benchmark we have been told we can only use the funds they have supplied. So we have money going into CDs via the fund.
We have recently come across a farmers COOP in Tn. that we can take a 3yr bond with for the chance to buy discounted organic non-gmo products. They also have an owner option which looks very interesting to us.
My point: I think if we stay firm on looking to invest morally and ethically, investments that benefit society, they will appear.

Thank you for this link- the Co-op looks terrific- planning to join.
That has been my experience. You stand and tell the universe what you want and attraction goes to work.
Thank you Catherine. I just read in more detail Coming Clean and value your guidance, I incorporate many aspects into my life. Like many I suspect, my biggest challenge is the 401K. Seeing a path to do this on my own seems out of my league. Will “how to do a custom index fund” incorporate how to direct my financial advisor on how to implement?
It should give enough as long as you are willing to give him or her a list of stocks you don’t want. Or he gives you a full list and you simply x out what you do not want.
Great, thank you!
Really informative Money and Mkt’s Report this week! In light of what you mentioned might have rivaled the despicable pedophilia perpetrated by the Epstein network Catherine, this article is interesting in that your mention of potential medical experimentation or worse might also have been going on. Interesting mention of Wexner in the article as well as he is also mentioned in the Epstein files. Refer to the second link for that connection.

You stated that they are treating people like cattle——that is easier because the majority are no better informer than cattle. Look how many are blind to so many things (repulsive) that Trump does—disrespectful of people & countries!!
Thank You
