At age 11, after her parents separated, the speaker was left with her father and brother, where she experienced abuse. She attempted suicide three times because no one cared. She tried calling the police but feared them due to their involvement with her abuse. She recounts being taken to Freemason lodges and a rural location for satanic ritual abuse, involving blood, animal sacrifices, and the taking of children's lives. She overheard her father offering her as a sacrifice to the Grandmaster. At these events, children were drugged and laid out in a circle while Freemasons chanted. At home, she was treated like a dog, forced to wear a collar and leash, eat off the floor, and tied up outside. Her brother and his friends became involved in the abuse, and she was also a slave in the home. She tried to escape but was brought back. Weekends with her mother offered no escape, as her mother always returned her. At 12, she discovered her father with another woman, leading her mother to finally remove her from the house after consulting with the Archbishop of Auckland.

Rachel describes being raised in a family that believes in ritualistic abuse and devil worship, with a extensive lineage she can trace back to around 1700. She says her family’s beliefs involve worship within the home and that other Jewish families across the country are involved as well. She notes that she grew up thinking the practices were normal, due in part to multiple personality disorder that has blocked many terrifying memories from childhood. She explains that she witnessed and was forced to participate in infant sacrifices meant to gain power. She states that babies were bred within the family, and sometimes people would appear to go away and then return, making it hard to tell what was happening. She mentions that not all Jewish people sacrifice babies and clarifies that this is not representative of all Jewish people. Rachel recounts being molested and raped several times. She asks about her mother’s role, explaining that her mother’s family was deeply involved and that both her parents brought her to these rituals. Her mother now lives in the Chicago Metropolitan Area and serves on the Human Relations Commission of the town, described as an upstanding citizen whom nobody would suspect. She reflects on growing up with a sense of right and wrong that could be flipped: “What was right was what was wrong was right and what was right was wrong,” a dynamic she ties to the development of her MPD (multiple personality disorder). She notes that her family did not refer to it as worship of the devil but as evil, whereas in her experience it was framed as goodness by those involved. She mentions talking to a police detective in the Chicago area and that several friends are now aware of her story. Finally, she references a book called Willis Cave, a work of Jewish mysticism and supernatural, which relates to what she endured as a child.

The speaker claims she lost 20 pounds because Ghislaine told her she wasn't allowed to eat at a Jewish country club because she wasn't Jewish. The speaker says Ghislaine and others acted as if their DNA was superior. She found Jeffrey Epstein less horrible than Ghislaine, who she alleges was "raping just as many children." The speaker says she was made to feel useless for not being Jewish and was called names. She says Jeffrey and Ghislaine spoke about African Americans in a horrifying way, and that they believed they were chosen. The speaker recalls Isabel asking her mother, Aileen, why she called Maria a nobody, to which Aileen replied that Maria was a nobody because she wasn't Jewish. Speaker 1 claims the Maxwell family is associated with Chabad Lubavitch, a group that allegedly believes only Jews are human.

Anya describes her family publicly presenting as Jewish while privately admitting they are Satanists involved in the cult of Baal, a Phoenician ancient cult she says is still active and connected to the Illuminati, which she claims has a vast reach over politics and entertainment. She explains the cult’s practice of trauma and abuse to create loyalty and suppress disclosure, noting she is the only one of her siblings who has spoken out. She mentions rumors in music about other survivors and references celebrity cases (Justin Bieber, Usher, Justin Timberlake) as examples of perpetrators who target those born into the bloodline versus those who join as adults. She states she was abused as a child by her father, uncles, and cousins, and that her family’s cover story involved deception about their identity, with Passover dinners where they admitted, “we are Satanists.” She discusses the concept of the Illuminati as a mythologized group that uses myths like shape-shifting reptilians to delegitimize victims’ testimonies. She explains that fear and drug-induced experiences contributed to confusion and misperceptions about metaphysical explanations and that some explanations are used to derail conversations about the cults’ power in media and politics. Anya confirms the cult’s presence in high society and claims powerful individuals, including politicians and entertainers, are involved. She asserts her father boasted that his grandfather was Walt Disney and recalls a history involving media entities and monopolies, including Viacom’s acquisition of Fox, and a hard line on selling the news station. She recounts meeting various politicians and entertainers and discusses Jeffrey Maxwell’s role. She says she met Jeffrey in Aspen in 2007; Jeffrey reportedly worked for Steven (her uncle) and was involved in activities with teenage girls in New York, Florida, and Saint Andrews, though she says Jeffrey may not have orchestrated everything himself. Anya describes Ghislain, Kari Epstein, and Jeffrey’s stepmother as participants in the abuse, with Kari appearing to enjoy power and being driven by survival and social standing, while Ghislain is connected to aristocracy. She states Jeffrey was involved in full occult practices but not necessarily acting of his own volition, noting a memory of coercive acts by men who did not want to participate, and that Jeffrey may have been a participant but not the sole mastermind. She mentions having memories of being assaulted by multiple men and describes a dynamic where his death or concealment (or plastic surgery and flight) affected the ongoing power structure, implying the apparatus continued beyond him. Anya discusses Maxwell’s wife, Lady C, and makes distinctions between individuals who derive pleasure from abusing a vulnerable child and others who engage due to power dynamics or survival. She compares abuse patterns to MK Ultra techniques: infant-administered macro doses during assaults and micro-doses to maintain compliance, which she claims severed memory and created a dissociative reality. She explains that large doses left memories “locked away in a nightmare fantasy world,” while small doses kept her complacent, contributing to loyalty and silence. She emphasizes the aim of MK Ultra-like trauma bonds to deter victims from speaking out, and she urges current child victims to recognize why people may hesitate to intervene, noting that some survivors may seek out Anya or choose silence to protect others.

The speaker was born into a family involved in something dating back to the 1700s. She says her family appears to be a nice Jewish family, but they worship the devil inside the home, and there are other Jewish families across the country doing the same. She has spoken publicly before, and police detectives in the Chicago area know about it. Growing up, she thought it was normal, but has blacked out a lot of memories due to multiple personality disorder. There were rituals in which babies would be sacrificed, and people in the family bred babies. She was forced to participate in sacrificing an infant when she was very young. The purpose of sacrifice is not stated.

The discussion centers on the idea that his shtick hinges on the perception that he is the character he plays—“every man” who isn’t right wing but a populist fighting for the people against the powers that be. This is illustrated with a personal anecdote: “This is the truck that I drove this morning. This is the truck I drive. It's a 1987 Chevrolet Silverado. There are no electronics in this. There's no air conditioning. There's no radio, and there's no way for the government to turn off my engine if I'm disobedient.” The speaker cautions that “the moment that it's revealed not to be true, it's over. It's like you're worth 50,000,000 not worth $50,000,000. 30 to 50. Get off the fucking Internet, son. Don't stop believing that stuff.” Speaker 1 pushes back, claiming, “No. No. I'm a but see, I'm not out of the closet to leave this. I don't run around pretending to be a man of the people. I'm absolutely not a man of the people at all.” The conversation touches on money and upbringing: “I had the privilege of not being interested in money because I and I grew up in a family where we're worried about money, so I just never really thought about money.” Speaker 2 contributes background on Tucker’s lineage, noting, “Tucker's great, great… great grandfather was known as the cattle king of California, the largest, landowner in The United States in the nineteenth century. Just to give you an idea of the enormous wealth.” The discussion continues with Tucker’s financial succession, “Tucker and his brother did end up with a part of the oil and gas, minerals that she owned in her estate. So even that went well for Tucker.” There is a mention of apparent wealth and inheritance: “Well, I'm, like, extraordinarily loaded just from, like, money I, you know, inherited from my number of trust funds. From a Swanson deal.” The dialogue clarifies family ties: “She wasn't your mother. How I felt. That's I had a mother. I mean That's right. My dad got remarried to someone I think of as my mother.” There is a note on the father’s marriage to Patricia Caroline Swanson in 1979, described as “the heir to the Swanson billion dollar fortune. They're frozen food family. Serve Swanson dinner soon.” The exchange reiterates inherited wealth and the question of authenticity: “You're a trust fund baby, are you not? No. Completely. I've never needed to work.” The closing reflection suggests a critique of the shtick: “I think there's kind of a deep phoniness at the center of his shtick.” The final line cites a concrete memory: “I worked in a kitchen in 1985. Everybody in the kitchen had a criminal record. Every single one. But, of course, every dishwasher has been to prison for something. Right?”

She alleges that Trump requested and received a hand job from her at one party, insisting she use a glove. She claims Trump knew she was 13, partly because she resembled his daughter. She says that Epstein also knew her age and tried to force himself on her. She states that she was recruited to these parties under the guise of modeling. She alleges that Trump made racist remarks and engaged in disturbing behavior, including acting out a rape fantasy and a scenario involving maids.

For power.” The response given to the question about the purpose of sacrifice is: “Power.” The speaker also discloses personal abuse within the narrative, stating: “Mhmm. I was molested. I was raped several times.” They then describe their mother’s current life and public image, asserting: “And what's your mother doing? She lives in the Chicago Metropolitan Area.

Speaker 0: Britney Spears' name has been mentioned multiple times in the Epstein files. I'm curious why I haven't seen anything about this on my FYP. Day after day, she is being laughed at by Hollywood, laughed at by the media, laughed at by the world. But seriously, we knew there was something deeper going on with this situation. And the only question I have is, where are her friends? Aside from a few dressing up as her for Halloween and using #FreeBritney, they haven't done much. It’s starting to look to me like Britney Spears was experimented on. Why would doctor Mark Tremo, who is affiliated with UCLA, be emailing Jeffrey Epstein about Britney Spears' conservatorship or her custody battles or the neonatal ICU project? Britney Spears was treated like a literal slave by everybody around her and made her go mad. She was exploited from the time she started the Mickey Mouse Club, and don’t pay attention to what those posters behind her say, until she was a 40-year-old woman. And even though Hollywood treated her like a monkey in a circus and danced her to her own deathbed, she still to this day can’t stop performing. It’s almost like she’s programmed or something. But many people have spoken out about this. It’s just the world did not want to hear it. Speaker 1: Do you believe that Britney was trafficked, shoe, Diddy, and absolutely. All of those girls. All of those Mickey Mouse girls, including Christina Aguilera. All of them, all of these children have been trafficked. Part of the reason why they can’t tell you was because they were drugged. Yeah. But most of what was happening to them was happening. And what they have left are the memories and the nightmares. Now they think they’re just bad dreams, but they’re memories. And because they’ve been drugged, and they’ve been handled, and they’ve been shrunk to death, they don’t know what to believe, but they can feel it. Speaker 0: And I will stand by the fact that Britney Spears was failed by everybody, her family, her lovers, and especially her friends, because it took a team of people to do this to her. And anyone in the industry that claims that they protect children but don’t protect the children in the industry are just snakes to me.

Would run, but we couldn't hide from those white lab coats. They did finally catch us and strap us onto gurneys, and they had their way with not only our pubescent bodies, but our minds as well. April remembers the day I got my eggs harvested. She heard my screaming as we were put through some terrible torture with the electrodes. Since she was the breeder, now I couldn't have children because I had endometriosis, which I now found out was something they gave me. They would use my DNA. Now this is gonna sound really crazy, okay, if you are not familiar with this. They would use my DNA and implant it in her womb and then harvest the babies into advanced incubators when they were justifiable. We often tried to escape when I would wake her up using their codes. I remember horrible earaches and a lot of time underwater. There were some experimentation, breathing underwater. And if you wanna ever watch the Hollywood movie, The Deep, that might explain some of these experiments that they were doing to us. As a result I hated to go swimming because if I got any water in my ear, I would often end up with horrible earaches because I had a hole in my ear. April asked a lot of questions during the experiments when she was awake and was actually told the answers about who the babies would be given to and what would happen to them because they never thought she'd remember or tell anybody. She remembers that some of them would be called April. Now I know that's weird, but that's what they told her, like naming the model or clone after the mother to keep track of them somehow. She said that some they did experiments on and others were sacrificed in the rituals. And she said for some reason a lot of the boys were sacrificed in rituals. Now, enter this girl. Her name is Shirsty. She is from Santa Maria, California, the town I grew up with, but I didn't meet her until she moved to Utah and I moved to Utah. And she came up to me and when she got to know me better, I actually used her as a signer. When I would sing, she would do the sign language and it was beautiful what she did. And she finally told me her story that her mother was a satanist and the reason she got put into foster care was that she was taken away from her satanic ritual family, which is no surprise coming from Santa Maria, California. Her story is that she is my daughter. Now the jury is still out on this, but we are going to have a gene test because her mother admittedly from a satanic family said that my DNA was used when she got pregnant in the labs. She said she was experimented on and actually told that the DNA came from me. The crazy thing is, and we only figured this out years later, is that Shearste's story coincides exactly with April's story that she was used as a breeder to carry my DNA, and the babies would be harvested early and put into the advanced incubators and finished to be used as Manchurian candidates in selected homes. April said that several of these children were named after her, April Cummings, and she has kept track of some of them over the years because she knew the families they had been given to.

A person claims their family has an extensive family tree dating back to the 1700s. They allege that rituals involving baby sacrifice occurred within their family and other Jewish families across the country. These sacrifices were purportedly done for power. The speaker states they were forced to participate in rituals as a child, including sacrificing incense. They also claim to have been molested and raped. Both parents were allegedly involved, with the mother currently living in the Chicago area and serving on the Human Relations Commission. The speaker says they were raised with a dual sense of right and wrong, where outward appearances of propriety masked nighttime rituals where evil was presented as good. They found parallels to their experiences in a book called "Lilith's Cave," which deals with Jewish mysticism and the supernatural.

Speaker 1 explains that a family member will unlock an entire family tree that upends Erica Kirk’s image and potentially exposes her connection to a network of financial fraud, casino gambling, and foreign influence. Everything told is verifiable and in the public domain. Erica Kirk is described as, at the time, with her roommate Nicole Rothstein. Speaker 1 recounts that Nicole Rothstein is Erica Kirk’s cousin. Nicole responded to a clip featuring Erica Kirk about Shabbat, saying, “as her cousin who is fully Jewish, half of her family is Jewish. While she herself is a Christian, she has celebrated many Jewish holidays with our side of the family and highly respects the Jewish religion.” The speaker notes Nicole Rothstein’s account may no longer be available. Nicole’s father is Alan Rothstein, who appears in an Instagram post sitting next to her, with Erica Kirk writing about “God’s strategic planning” and being blessed to have “uncle Allen” in her life. The speaker then identifies Alan P. Rothstein in an SEC document, confirming he is the same person. The SEC document describes him as a member of the board of directors of Innumerall and notes he also owned Shazoom LLC. The speaker notes that from 2002 through 2007, Alan Rothstein was the co-founder and chairman of NanoDynamics Incorporated. Further digging suggests Alan Rothstein, Erica’s uncle, may have been involved in questionable activities. For NanoDynamics, the suit in bankruptcy court is mentioned, with the implication that a trustee may allege improper withdrawal of funds by a director or founder before collapse. Innumerall is described as a penny stock trading on the OTC markets before bankruptcy. Shazoom LLC is described as a business funding company with little footprint—no major client reviews, no press releases of funded deals, and no industry presence. The speaker suggests this may indicate a shell company used to move money rather than conduct commerce. The transcript states that the Rothsteins are a famous crime family, with Erica Kirk positioned at the center as the new CEO of Turning Point. The speaker asks again who Erica Kirk is—whether she is an innocent widow thrust into the limelight by the death of her husband, or if there is more to the story. A final breadcrumb invites viewers to count the stars on the American flag in the AmericaFest 2025 logo.

Kerry Washington on connection, identity and AI
Guests: Kerry Washington
reSee.it Podcast Summary
An immigrant curiosity fuels a life at the intersection of art, identity, and technology as Kerry Washington describes a pivotal youth in Kerala studying Kathakali. She recalls learning Malayalam and an unfamiliar alphabet, turning a walk to class into a moment of discovery when a sign read 'B-A-T shop,' only to reveal a beauty shop. That moment crystallized a rule she carries: step into the unknown, ask questions, and let curiosity lead to new wisdom. Travel, she says, makes the world feel smaller and the mind larger, teaching resilience and the courage to be uncomfortable in service of growth. Her conversation shifts to family, revelation, and technology’s power to redefine belonging. She recounts the memoir thread where a late discovery—that her father who raised her is not her biological dad—reframes love, loyalty, and truth. Trevor Noah’s remark helped her see that blood is not the sole measure of kinship, that love can be thicker than biology. Technology accelerates this awakening: the DNA era exposed long-kept secrets, and the idea of found families became a new truth she carries into everyday life and work. It also shaped her artistry, as Scandal matured into a family that endured pregnancies, weddings, and upheaval for seven seasons. She credits social media with turning a niche show into a cultural event, with gladiators online fueling grassroots engagement long before streaming dominated the industry. A team including Raamla Mohamed learned to read Black Twitter as a creative barometer, even spawning a fashion capsule featured in the show. Washington describes how AI and avatar work excite her, while demanding consent, compensation, and transparency—guardrails in the era of web-scale likenesses. Beyond entertainment, she envisions AI as a tool for access and human connection: multilingual speaking engagements via AI dubbing, democratized creative opportunity, and forms of collaboration that protect performers’ rights. She argues for equity over equality, invoking a fence-and-apples analogy to explain how society can remove barriers and level the ground, not merely hand out boxes. The conversation ends with a call to cultivate curiosity in kids, invest in lifelong learning, and nurture justice so that technology serves humanity by expanding ladders, not building walls.
