Round 1 of the fight over releasing the Epstein files is now over, as President Trump signed the bill that sailed through Congress today.

It was a huge victory for the survivors of Epstein’s crimes, as they now vow to take up the battle and start sharing their stories and exposing who these rich and powerful men are in Epstein’s network who sexually abused and trafficked them when they were children.

It was a huge victory for the four members of the GOP in the House (3 of them women) that dared to stand up to Trump’s intimidations and threats that allowed these survivors to go public.

It was certainly not a total victory, however, as the Trump Administration carefully orchestrated how to respond to overwhelming public demand to release the files by changing their strategy and all agreeing to support the Bill, including Trump himself, and thereby avoiding an embarrassing vote on the Bill which could have potentially signaled who is too afraid of being exposed by the files.

Only one member of the House voted against it, and the Senate passed it “as is” without even voting on it. This preserved the language in the Bill that Mike Johnson and others stated needed to be amended, probably the language that made it a criminal offense for participating in delaying the release of the files.

So this battle is over now, and the next one begins, because nobody really believes that they are actually going to release documents or videos that would implicate the rich and powerful, at least not on the Republican side and not Trump.

The current administration may try to use this against their Democratic foes, as there is a current “investigation” going on with the Clintons and others, but I doubt that will go anywhere, because they can then just turn around and do the same thing against Republicans.

We should NOT expect our federal government, no matter who is in power, to tell us the truth about the vast Jeffrey Epstein child sex trafficking network, anymore than we can trust them to tell the truth on other things such as the John F. Kennedy assassination, 911, the COVID hoax and mass murders through the COVID-19 shots, and many other issues.

But make no mistake here, this IS a victory, because now it gives victims and survivors of child sex abuse a much better environment to go public with their stories.

So now it is time to focus on something much larger and much more evil than the Epstein child sex trafficking network, and that is the current child trafficking network that is far larger, and is “legal” in every state in the U.S. – The Foster Care and Adoption networks that your tax dollars fund, allowing child traffickers to exist in every single community within the U.S., legally.

The U.S. Foster Care Network is the #1 Pipeline for Child Trafficking

We have documented the fact that the United States is the #1 destination in the world for child sex trafficking, and that the main pipeline that is used to kidnap these children is the U.S. Foster Care system, where over 400,000 children a year are kidnapped from their parents and put into the system, against the will of both the parents and the children.

It is a very wicked, evil, and Satanic system that most people in America still believe needs to exist to “protect children.”

And yet study after study after study for decades now provide statistics that children who are taken away from their parents, even in “troubled” homes, do FAR worse in the foster care system that one judge in Texas ruled that:

“children have been shuttled throughout a system where rape, abuse, psychotropic medication, and instability are the norm.” (Source.)

The most recent study showing how foster care children fare far worse than children left in their homes, is a study out of Sweden that showed children in foster care were four times more likely to be DEAD by age 20, than children left in their own homes.

Death at an early age: A Swedish study finds it’s FOUR TIMES more likely for those who’ve been in foster care

Excerpts:

Our entire massive child welfare surveillance state – a system so omnipresent that it will investigate the families of one-third of all American children and more than half of Black children – was never built on science. It didn’t grow based on research showing that this approach will make children safer.

It was fed, and grew to its current monstrous proportions, almost exclusively on horror stories.

Over and over, child abuse fatalities among children “known to the system,” horrors as rare as they are tragic, were exploited to call for ever more investigations and the removal of ever more children to foster care.

It never worked; but that never mattered.

The only acceptable goal for child abuse fatalities is zero. But there is no evidence that exploiting such fatalities to create the current system, no evidence that investigating ever more families, and no evidence that taking away more children, has ever done a damn thing to curb child deaths – even as it caused enormous collateral damage. And now there is evidence that the system itself may cause more children to die.

The evidence comes in the form of a stunning study from Sweden. The study determined the fate of children involved in 21,000 cases, comparing those placed in foster care to comparably- maltreated children left in their own homes.

The result: By age 20, those who had endured time in foster care were more likely to die. Not just a little more likely to die – more than four times more likely to die.

Of course, percentages don’t mean a lot if the raw numbers are low. But the raw numbers are not low.  Among children left in their own homes 1.8% died by age 20. Among those who were forced into foster care, 8.6% died by age 20, a figure the study author calls “staggering.”

She writes:

This effect is mainly driven by suicides that occur while the removed children are still placed in out-of-home care. There is a sharp and persistent increased risk of suicide already within nine months after the court’s decision. The empirical evidence suggests that unfavorable care conditions and harmful exposure to peers serve as important explanations.

Among other things, this is still more evidence that the “residential treatment center” model, in which children said to have serious mental health problems are thrown together right when they are most vulnerable to peer pressure, is, well, insane. And there certainly is nothing to suggest that “care conditions” in the United States are more favorable than in Sweden – not when you consider all the exposes of residential treatment and all those studies showing high rates of abuse in American foster care.

This is, of course, on top of all the other studies, one after another after another, finding all sorts of terrible outcomes for foster youth when, in typical cases, children placed in foster care are compared to comparably maltreated children left in their own homes. (Full article.)

And while this just-reported study was from Sweden, many studies have been conducted in the U.S. as well, showing the same results.

In 2007 Joseph Doyle, an economics professor at MIT’s Sloan School of Management, published a study which tracked at least 15,000 kids from 1990 to 2002. It was the largest study of its kind at that time.

USA Today ran a story on the report – Study: Troubled homes better than foster care. Here are some excerpts:

Children whose families are investigated for abuse or neglect are likely to do better in life if they stay with their families than if they go into foster care, according to a pioneering study. Kids who stayed with their families were less likely to become juvenile delinquents or teen mothers and more likely to hold jobs as young adults.

Doyle’s study…. provides “the first viable, empirical evidence” of the benefits of keeping kids with their families, says Gary Stangler, executive director of the Jim Casey Youth Opportunities Initiative, a foundation for foster teens.

Stangler says it looked at kids over a longer period of time than had other studies.

It confirms what experience and observation tell us: Kids who can remain in their homes do better than in foster care,” says Stangler.

Joseph Doyle did another study, one year later in 2008, comparing children left in troubled homes with foster care children to see which group was more likely to be arrested as adults.

The study looked at 23,000 children, and it found that

children placed in foster care have arrest, conviction, and imprisonment rates as adults that are three times higher than those of children who remained at home.”

Of the 400,000 plus children in foster care, less than 15% of them are there because of abuse. Most of them are ripped away from their families under the broad category of “neglect”. That “neglect” can be “medical neglect” for failing to follow a doctor’s advice and seeking a second opinion, or refusing to vaccinate your child.

Recently, it included parents who could not adequately feed their children when the nation’s SNAP program was temporarily shut down during the recent budget fight that closed many government agencies.

With SNAP benefits cut off, poor families are under even more stress. Faced with a family going hungry and desperate to find food for the children, the stress causes a parent to “maltreat” the children. Do you:

  1. A) Put the family under investigation, interrogate everyone, rifle through cabinets, drawers, cupboards and refrigerators, stripsearch the children (often standard practice regardless of the investigation) and leave the entire family traumatized.
  2. B) Do all of the above and tear the children from their parents, consigning them to the chaos of foster care, from which only one in five is likely to do well in later life: a system that leaves emotional scars so great it may make it more than four times more likely they’ll die by age 20, while putting them in places where there’s at least a one in four chance, and probably more, they will be abused.
  3. C) Get the family some food.

The answer should be easy, of course. But in Allegheny County, Pa. (metropolitan Pittsburgh), they seem to prefer A or B.  (Full article.)

We know that the U.S. is #1 in the world for child sex trafficking, because the former head of the CIA and the Secretary of State under Trump 1.0 told us so!

The United States is again ranked as one of the worst countries in the world for human trafficking. According to a recently released report by the State Department, the top three nations of origin for victims of human trafficking in 2018 were the United States, Mexico and the Philippines.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo delivered the Trafficking in Persons report, which is created annually by the State Department to document human trafficking in the year prior, and highlighted the growing focus that government agencies and nonprofit organizations have dedicated to stopping human trafficking.

Over the last two months, Fox News has investigated human trafficking.

If there’s one takeaway from our reporting, it’s that the industry is fueled by an unceasing demand.

“We have a major issue here in the United States” Geoff Rogers, co-founder of the United States Institute Against Human Trafficking (USIAHT), said in an interview with Fox News.

The United States is the No. 1 consumer of sex worldwide. So we are driving the demand as a society.”

“We’re also driving the demand with our own people, with our own kids,” Rogers said.

So there are tremendous numbers of kids, a multitude of kids that are being sold as sex slaves today in America. These are American kids, American-born, 50 percent to 60 percent of them coming out of the foster care industry.”

This assertion is confirmed by the State Department’s report, which found that children in foster care, homeless youth, undocumented immigrant children and those with substance abuse problems were especially at risk to fall into the human trafficking trap. (Full article.)

Christians Run the U.S. Foster Care Network and Participate in Child Sex Trafficking

While Jeffrey Epstein is allegedly dead, and Ghislaine Maxwell is still in prison (for now), look no further than your local church or synagogue to find child sex traffickers right in your own communities.

As I reported last month (October, 2025), it is not just Billionaire pedophiles who are sexually trafficking children. Christian pastors and other religious leaders are also participating in the lucrative child trafficking network, mainly through the foster care system. See:

Pedophile Billionaires are not the Only Ones being Exposed by Victims – Christian Pedophile Pastors are also being Exposed by Their Victims

Excerpts:

NBC News has run an investigative report this year called “PASTORS AND PREY” where many victims of pedophile pastors have come forward, some of them decades later, to talk about how they were sexually abused by pastors in the Assemblies of God, the world’s largest Pentecostal denomination.

Some of these pastors raped and sexually abused children for decades before anyone dared to stop them, demonstrating just how much influence and power these pastors hold in their churches.

The 40-year mission to stop a Pentecostal preacher accused of raping children

Joe Campbell says his calling is to share God’s love, but a group of women say he sexually abused them as girls. An NBC News investigation uncovered decades of missed warnings and failures to act.

The women have spent decades trying to forget, but some memories haunt them. The way the children’s pastor wrapped them in his arms. The terrifying stories he told about demons and the warmth in his voice as he promised to protect them. The chill of his hands on parts of their bodies where no grown man’s hands should be. The blood some of them found in their underwear afterward.

They can still picture the spaces where it happened: A church nursery. A childhood bedroom. His garage during a youth group sleepover.

This, they say, is the dark secret behind the public ministry of Joseph Lyle Campbell, a magnetic Pentecostal preacher who built a national following with fiery sermons on sin, salvation and America’s moral decline.

As Campbell tells it, he was a teenager when God gave him a mission: to share his love of Jesus with children. In the decades since, as he evangelized from church to church across the South and Midwest, he has repeatedly faced accusations of child sexual abuse, an NBC News investigation found.

Almond is one of five women who told NBC News that Campbell, now 67, sexually assaulted them when they were children in the 1970s and ’80s.

In Oklahoma, Kerri Jackson says he molested her once to twice a week for three years starting when she was about 9. In Arkansas, Lisa Ball says Campbell invited her to live with him after she became a teen mother, then raped her repeatedly.

In Missouri, Kim Williams had just turned 15 when she says Campbell reached his hand up her shorts at his parsonage. In that same home, Phaedra Creed says Campbell sexually assaulted her night after night, at age 14, while his wife and children slept upstairs.

Christians are the primary group in the U.S. who promote foster care and adoption, by redefining the meaning of “orphan” to mean any child who does not have a “good” parent in a “forever home.”

Christian Churches Redefine the Meaning of “Orphan” to Justify Participating in Child Trafficking

The child trafficking business today, which includes trafficking children from outside the U.S. into the U.S. through adoption agencies, as well as trafficking children within the U.S. through the government-funded foster care system, is quite possibly the most lucrative business in the U.S. today, if one includes “legal” ways of trafficking children, as well as illegal ways.

The biggest religious player in trafficking children today, is probably the Evangelical Church. If the Evangelical Church immediately stopped participating in overseas adoptions, and stopped participating in the government-funded foster care system, it would have a serious impact in stopping the flow of child trafficking today.

When one looks at the rationale used today by the Evangelical Church to participate in government-funded programs that are documented to be involved in child trafficking, we learn that the church is using the term “orphan” incorrectly, and instead of obeying scriptural principles to care for “orphans and widows,” they are actually doing the opposite, by completely denying parental rights and participating in the lucrative child trafficking business.

Southern Baptist Church: Leader in Foster Care and Adoption – Home to Pedophiles

Defund the Child Welfare Program and Stop Funding Pedophiles!

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is the Secretary of HHS which funds the Child Welfare program, and is a former associate of Jeffrey Epstein. Image source.

The easiest way to stop the #1 pipeline to child sex trafficking, the nation’s foster care system, is to stop funding it.

But that’s probably never going to happen, because politicians who have tried to do this in the past have been found dead, such as former Georgia Senator Nancy Schaefer, and former Arkansas Senator Linda Collins-Smith.

Senator Nancy Schaefer: Did her Fight Against CPS Child Kidnapping Cause her Murder?

People Actually Trying to Stop Child Trafficking are Often Murdered – The CENSORED Linda Collins-Smith Story

Back in February of this year, I published an article about how Musk-DOGE, HHS Secretary Kennedy and President Trump could immediately cut (at least) over $70 Billion in Federal Spending by ending the Federal Child Trafficking Programs of CPS & Foster Care.

Here’s How Musk-DOGE, Kennedy and Trump Can Immediately Cut Over $70 Billion in Federal Spending: End the Federal Child Trafficking Programs of CPS & Foster Care

But of course, not only has this NOT happened, nobody is even discussing it.

But when you consider who the current head of HHS is, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., what would you expect?

Mr. Kennedy’s addiction to heroine, keeping a sex diary of all the women he has conquered, and his past associations with Jeffrey Epstein, have all been publicly reported in the past. See:

Another Former Associate with Jeffrey Epstein Files to Run for U.S. President in 2024

There are no government solutions to this problem of pedophilia in America. The pedophiles run the government, and the businesses that fund the government.

This is going to take a true grass-roots movement of people to stand by the survivors of this evil system, and to keep on exposing it.

If you belong to a church or other religious institution that receives government money to foster and adopt children, demand that they STOP, and if they do not, do not support them anymore.

When people object and try to pull the sympathy card and say: “What about all those poor children who really are being abused in their homes – we need to protect them,” just tell them to put their words into action and start protecting truly abused children, by doing it YOURSELF within your community, and WITHOUT government funding.

Remember, less than 15% of the children who are put into foster care are actually put there on charges of physical or sexual abuse, and even in most of those cases, those charges of “abuse” are never even substantiated!

So for the true number of abused children in abusive home environments, report the abuser to law enforcement and let the PEDOPHILES be arrested and taken of out of the home, rather than remove the victims, the children, and incarcerate them in the Satanic foster care system where odds are they will be sexually abused, never get an education but end up in prison, and commit suicide before the age of 20.

If you do this, however, and try to bypass the government to take care of needy children in your community, just be prepared for what happens next, when you take profit away from one of the most lucrative government businesses of trafficking children.

They will probably try to destroy your life, as they did to Nehemiah Flynt.

Success with Troubled Youth Using No Drugs or Mental Health Therapy – A Threat to the Medical Kidnapping System

Nehemiah exposed how CPS often takes children away from loving parents. He noticed that almost all of the foster children were drugged:

“I began to notice a pattern. At least 90% of the children entering my home were on medication for labels such as ADD, ADHD, or ODD.

I didn’t understand that. I began researching statistics and realized that children in foster care were being labeled with hyperactivity disorders at rates well above those of children in mainstream society. I wondered why…”

Nehemiah left the foster care system, and became part of a ministry that worked with troubled youth without using drugs or mental health services. It was a highly successful program, but soon CPS came knocking on his door:

“Child Protective Services got wind of our program. They didn’t like the fact that we were teaching our youth Biblical standards, a work ethic, that they were not victims of society but were responsible for the choices they were making, and that medication was not the answer to all of life’s problems.

They placed a target on our heads and did everything in their power to override our constitutional rights and to stop the work we were doing.

They have an agenda to medicate as many children as they can, to label them with mental health disorders, and to stop anyone who stands in their way – at any cost.”

Government is not, and never has been, the solution to pedophilia in America. It is going to take “We the People” to stop this.
