The Globalist Elites Exposed! Pizzagate Vindicated by Epstein Files, and “Why Eyes Wide Shut” Was Just a Teaser, By Brian Simpson

Ten years ago, in the feverish run-up to the 2016 election, "Pizzagate" exploded across Twitter (now X) as the top trending topic, amassing millions of views and shares. It stemmed from leaked emails of John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman, which online sleuths decoded as evidence of a child trafficking ring among D.C. elites, centreed absurdly around Comet Ping Pong pizzeria. Mainstream media dismissed it as a baseless, dangerous conspiracy — fake news peddled by Macedonian bots or unhinged 4chan trolls. Anyone daring to investigate, like journalist Ben Swann, was crucified: blacklisted, shadow-banned, career torpedoed. Swann's 2016 "Reality Check" segment, which methodically examined the emails without endorsing the wilder claims, got him fired from CBS46 in Atlanta.

Fast-forward to February 2026: Even liberal icon Bill Maher, on HBO's Real Time, admits QAnon — Pizzagate's ideological cousin — wasn't "totally wrong" about elites running paedophile rings. "QAnon, yes, a lot of crazy there. But you know what? You weren't totally wrong about that one, guys," Maher quipped, referencing the latest Epstein files. "I can't believe I'm saying this, but where does QAnon go for the apology?" He highlighted Epstein as the "access point" for perversion among the powerful, with emails casually discussing "sexual perversion" involving unexpected figures. Maher's reluctant nod underscores a seismic shift: What was once ridiculed as a "wild fever dream" is now corroborated by the U.S. Department of Justice's largest-ever document dump — over 3 million pages, 2,000 videos, and 180,000 images released on January 30, 2026, under the Epstein Files Transparency Act signed by President Trump in November 2025.

This isn't vindication for the Comet Ping Pong basement myth (there was no basement). As Swann reiterated in his February 2, 2026, X video — viewed over 3 million times — "Pizzagate is real. Not that there is a pizza parlour at the centre of a child trafficking ring. But child trafficking rings run by some of the most powerful people in the world do exist." The files expose a web of elite depravity: Epstein's Little St. James island with "tunnel" renovations (a "wood tunnel" floor for workshops and shipments, plus subterranean video inspections), and arrangements for Epstein's 16-year-old "niece" to work. Names like Bill Clinton (mentioned repeatedly), Elon Musk, Peter Mandelson, and even Trump (though the DOJ insists it didn't "protect" him) surface amid heavy redactions and admitted errors.

Swann's decade-old warnings echo eerily. In 2016, he spotlighted Podesta emails with odd phrases like "pizza for an hour" or a "pizza-related map" on a handkerchief — terms online paedophiles on 4chan claimed were code for child exploitation (e.g., "cheese pizza" = CP per Urban Dictionary). He noted Besta Pizza's logo incorporating a "boy lover" triangle symbol from a 2007 FBI report, which the shop hastily changed post-exposure.

Now, the Epstein trove mirrors this: "Pizza" appears 911 times — often with "grape soda" in bizarre contexts, like "Let's go for pizza and grape soda. No one else can understand" or Epstein requesting a "pizza place" menu with a wink. A 2009 email asks, "Where are you? Okay? I love the torture video." These aren't innocuous; they're red flags in a sea of evidence tying elites to underage exploitation. As Swann thunders in his video, "Epstein IS Pizzagate," but it's bigger— a cabal thriving in shadows, protected by complicit media and government inertia. No investigations followed Pizzagate; even now, with 6 million potential pages identified, the DOJ calls this the "final" release, withholding millions for "victim rights" or CSAM presence.

This rot makes Hollywood's darkest tales seem quaint. Stanley Kubrick's 1999 Eyes Wide Shut — with its masked orgies among shadowy elites — hinted at ritualistic debauchery, but it was adults-only, no kids. Kubrick died days after screening a cut; rumours swirled of studio meddling to soften it. Yet reality dwarfs fiction: Epstein's operation wasn't consensual kink; it was systemic trafficking of minors for blackmail and pleasure among billionaires, presidents, and royals. Films like Sound of Freedom (2023) tackled child trafficking head-on, but were smeared as "QAnon-adjacent." Even Taken (2008) feels mild next to Epstein's island "tunnels" and elite "pizza parties."

Conservatives and iconoclasts warned for years: The system's rigged to protect the powerful. Media's mockery didn't debunk Pizzagate; it buried it, allowing evil to fester. Maher's half-apology is a crack in the facade, but where's the reckoning? No arrests from these files yet, and probably never unless there is a world wide movement against the elites.
