## Resource

@anthon7yandrews Strap in, patriots and paranoids! In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers of the global onion to reveal... well, mostly just more rot. We’re dissecting how Jared Kushner became the world’s most expensive "back-channel" diplomat while the Khashoggi case proved that "accountability" is just a word used to fill space in dictionaries. We’re also following the money—specifically Epstein’s—to see which "reputable" scientific projects were fueled by the world’s least reputable billionaire. From the SAVE Act’s creative approach to making sure your vote doesn't count, to the COVID-19 response that turned "unprecedented death tolls" into a morning news crawl, we’re asking the hard questions: Like, why did the pandemic response team get Thanos-snapped right before a plague?
