The Blackmail State

[Geee]

American Thinker:

Part of the orientation of any intelligence officer is a warning about being sexually compromised. This should be a matter of common sense. However, due to the youth or inexperience of the target the perpetrators may be successful. It is a technique that has been used for centuries. In the 1940s Congressman Martin Dies called it the “badger game.” Defector Walter Kravchenko referred to its practitioners as “Liubyanka ladies.” Entice an indiviual into a sexually compromising situation and photograph it.

 

This presidential campaign appears at times to be a race to the gutter. Both Donald Trump and Bill Clinton have been accused of having sexual relations with minors. These allegations of sexual impropriety have raised some disturbing questions about the level of corruption in our society. Perhaps more serious than the possible sexual perversion is the undermining or our judicial system. The case of Jeffrey Epstein, billionaire financier and convicted pedophile, illustrates this point.

 

In 2003 reporter Vicky Ward wrote an article for Vanity Fair about the financier. Epstein became newsworthy after he flew Bill Clinton to Africa on his private jet, the 'Lolita Express,' for a charity event. Ward included allegations that Epstein may have engaged in illicit sexual activity with a 16 year old. Her editor at Vanity Fair decided to delete this from the published article after a call from Epstein. Her article dealt mainly on the hidden source of Epstein’s wealth and his unorthodox lifestyle.
