The Rift Between Elon Musk & Peter Thiel
Why go down alone when you can bring your fellow PayPal mafioso along with you?
Important background information for this story: I have previously written about Jeffrey Epstein — a former Israeli asset — being turned into an American one sometime before 2005. He was blackmailing Ehud Barak to establish the United States’ Site 512 in the Negev Desert in order to neutralize the Samson Option. Plus, the real Virginia Guiffre human trafficker Ron Eppinger worked for the Russian mob and Ms. Guiffre’s attorneys have ties to the Israeli mob and the Israeli tech sector such as Black Cube. All the people who cry the loudest about antisemitism are the same ones who threw Jeffrey Epstein under the bus and had him murdered.
Why is Elon Musk’s X algorithm promoting The New York Times (an Israeli propaganda outlet) about President Trump supposedly requesting Palantir to create a database on Americans and Peter Thiel’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein? This was also after Musk went nuclear on Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill.’
It’s like the media developed amnesia of the Edward Snowden leaks and Wikileaks Vault 7 drop. The U.S. government has been spying on us and keeping databases since 9/11. They don’t need Palantir to do it.
Valar Ventures: A Possible Money Laundering Scheme
It has been revealed Jeffrey Epstein invested $40 million into Peter Thiel’s Valar Ventures, a New York-based venture capital firm, which is also led by James Fitzgerald—a Mormon who attended BYU.
I have previously written about the Mormon mafia and the LDS Church’s Ensign Peak Advisors that’s heavily invested in the Israeli tech sector and the recently collapsed Silicon Valley Bank.
Epstein’s investment in Valar Ventures seems like he was going after Peter Thiel’s possible crypto money laundering scheme. An interesting rabbit hole is Valar Ventures and Yuri Milner’s (a Russian-Israeli) DST Global investing in the same retail crypto brokerage platforms such as BitPanda (here and here) and Nubank.
DST Global Leads $80 Million Private Investment in Nubank | The New York Times | December 7, 2016
DST Global, the investment firm started by a Russian venture capitalist, Yuri Milner, has led an $80 million private investment in a Brazilian start-up called Nubank, the company is expected to announce this week. The new financing suggests that despite Brazil’s political and economic upheaval, the financial technology sector remains a bright spot.
Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund, QED Investors, Sequoia Capital and Tiger Global Management, all prior investors in Nubank, also joined the investment round, which closed in late November, David Velez, the company’s founder and chief executive, said in an interview.
Was the BitPanda investment a way to launder money from Eastern Europe to the United States?
DST Global has been an active global investor in the segment known as fintech, though this is its first foray into Brazil. Mr. Milner started investing in internet companies in Russia and Eastern Europe more than a decade ago. In 2009, the firm, then known as Digital Sky Technologies, invested in Facebook. It became one of the social network’s largest owners before its initial public offering.
The firm also backed Twitter in 2011, before its initial public offering. Over the last several years, DST has invested heavily in the United States and China. Brazil was off the firm’s radar, until now.
Nubank provides a digital credit card for smartphones. It is looking to take customers away from Brazil’s highly profitable banks.
Last year, Nubank suspended its own crypto coin ‘Nucoin’ because it was part of a $9.7 billion crypto laundering scheme. Brazil’s Federal Revenue Service used a new artificial intelligence tool designed to detect fraudulent transactions. So, this is also another reason for the AI scare, it’s harder to be a white-collar criminal and money launderer with artificial intelligence.
No Asset Forfeiture of a Supposed Human Trafficker
If Jeffrey Epstein was really a human trafficker than why did the IRS give his estate $111 million dollar tax refund last year? Why was there no asset forfeiture?
Jeffrey Epstein Invested With Peter Thiel, and His Estate Is Reaping Millions | The New York Times | June 4, 2025
David Boies — represents several Epstein victims — sat on the board of Theranos and has ties to Israeli Black Cube.
The money is more likely to be distributed to one of Mr. Epstein’s former girlfriends and two of his long-term advisers, who have been named the beneficiaries of his estate.
That outcome doesn’t sit well with one of the lawyers who fought for years to help the women receive restitution. David Boies, who represented several of Mr. Epstein’s victims, said federal authorities seemed to lose interest after Mr. Epstein’s death and the successful conviction of Ghislaine Maxwell, his former companion, on sex-trafficking charges.
He said prosecutors in New York had made a mistake in not going for civil forfeiture after Mr. Epstein killed himself, which would have allowed the federal government to potentially seize the remaining assets.
“While we are grateful for the government’s prosecution of Epstein and Maxwell, the truth is that, both before and afterwards, the government was largely asleep at the switch,” Mr. Boies said.
Civil forfeiture allows the government to seize assets suspected of being involved in an illegal action. In theory, some of the seized assets could have been used to compensate victims.
If Epstein was really as bad as they say, then why would the IRS give his estate over $100m in a refund last year?
But the estate’s assets began to swell last fall, after it received a large $111.6 million tax refund from the Internal Revenue Service. Some of that money has since gone to pay off a loan and legal fees.
In its most recent public court filing, the estate, as of March 31, listed its total assets at a little over $131 million, of which about $50 million is cash. But that document notes it still records investments, such as the Valar investment, at their value when Mr. Epstein died nearly six years ago.
It’s time to stop automatically believing whatever the media reports. Journalist are paid to tell you how to feel about certain policies and capture and kill inconvenient stories. How many news agencies are actually fronts for foreign governments? My first questions of any news I ingest is Who benefits and why now?

Fabulous work!
As an aside, I've always been sceptical of the Theranos narrative we've been told. How is it possible that the Board, consisting of senior level intelligence and military guys, were "misled" by Holmes? I think the technology did work and they stole it.
And the fact that the book and movie were heavily promoted before the trial is another red flag.
I see Peter Thiel is at Bilderberg , Sweden this year!
