If you grew up in the 1980s, you might recognize the title from a line in the 1983 Tom Cruise movie Risky Business.
Cruise’s character, a hard-working and responsible high school senior named Joel Goodsen—obviously a take on the “good son”—is left home alone in his family’s Chicago suburban upper-middle class home while his parents go on vacation for a week. Sounds a little like Macaulay Culkin’s Home Alone, except in this case, Joel Goodsen was intentionally left home alone.
With his temporary independence and through the bad influence of a high school friend, Joel’s life quickly goes “off the rails”. He sleeps with a prostitute in his family’s house. He discovers his mother’s expensive crystal egg is stolen, and in the process of getting it back, he is stalked by Guido the Killer Pimp, resulting in his dad’s prize Porsche ending up at the bottom of Lake Michigan. To raise the money to fix the damages to the Porsche, Joel decides to bring in a bunch of his new prostitute girlfriend’s colleagues to create a “pop up” brothel at his parent’s house while they are still away.
Needless to say, things don’t go according to plan.
The whole situation kind of reminds me of a young Jeffrey Epstein and his “gal pal,” Ghislaine Maxwell—minus the blackmailing of powerful people, of course. And I should probably point out that I don’t believe Maxwell was Epstein’s “sidekick”; I believe she was, in fact his handler.
Robert Maxwell, Ghislaine’s father, was a former member of the British Parliament and military and is believed to have worked with the MOSSAD, Israel’s version of the CIA. I believe Ghislaine, also British, worked in a similar role as her dad for the MOSSAD. I believe Epstein was likely an over-sexed pervert who wanted to be rich, seem important, and have the ability to pursue his perversions unimpeded. This arrangement was a perfect fit.
I believe Jeffery Epstein was the “face” of the blackmail operation. He was used to lure people in. The targets were US politicians, CEOs, influential members of the media, and scientists.
US politicians were blackmailed to control the US government, control policies, where tax dollars go, and which foreign entities they go to. CEOs have the money and the media controls the narrative. But what about the scientists? If you control the scientists, you control science.
If you control the science, you control the climate change hoax.
Is it a coincidence that “climate change” as a concept went into high gear around the time Epstein’s blackmail operation began? Oh, and who was the face of climate change at the time? That’s right—Al Gore, Bill Clinton’s vice president—both allegedly connected to Epstein.
Again, coincidence?
Ghislaine Maxwell has been “sold” to us as Epstein’s girlfriend who later became just a friend who happened to procure underage girls to satisfy his insatiable needs and perversions. Most people are probably now more willing to accept that she was much more involved—and in charge—of the blackmail operation than was once believed.
I find that there are too many connections between Jeffrey Epstein, Israeli leaders and other Jewish billionaire businessmen to refuse exploring the possibility that he and his operation were working with the MOSSAD and other intelligence agencies, blackmailing people of power and influence. Israel has received a lot of financial and military support from the US and Americans over the years. Have US politicians and powerful Americans been blackmailed into supporting these aspects of Israel?
As the “Epstein list” comes out, we will hear of things we’ve known for a while now, we will learn some new names, and we will be subjected to some disinformation as well.
Then, if some of the information is ‘fake,’ then how can we trust any of it?
Needless to say, the 48-hour rule will be in effect.
Ghislaine Maxwell: Helicopter and Submarine Pilot
Does anyone else think it’s strange that this “socialite” was a licensed helicopter and submarine pilot?
It seems kind of ‘out of place.’
Why would a rich “party girl” who “hobnobs” with the world’s elite be licensed to fly a helicopter and pilot a submarine? Weird.
In 1998, Jeffrey Epstein bought Little St. James Island, now more popularly known as ‘Epstein Island.’ Ten years later, he plead guilty in Florida to procuring a child for prostitution and of soliciting a prostitute.
Federal officials had identified thirty-six girls, some as young as 14 years old, whom Epstein had allegedly sexually abused, but he cut a “sweetheart” of a deal, which allowed him to move about freely during the day with the stipulation that he had to sleep in a minimum-security, unlocked jail cell each night of his sentence.
He served 13 months.
Around the time Epstein was convicted, Ghislaine Maxwell got her helicopter pilot’s license; in fact, Epstein paid for it. Why now?
I believe that those involved in the Epstein blackmail operation realized that they could no longer freely work out of Florida and New York. I assume the helicopter license was needed to discretely fly people from the Island of St. Thomas to the small neighboring island of Little St. James.
Little St. James Island, or Epstein Island, is about a mile and a half from the larger Island of St. Thomas. St. Thomas’ airport is about 10 miles from Epstein Island. St. Thomas also has a submarine base about 8 miles from Epstein Island. Additionally, providing natural protection for the bay where the submarine base is located is an island called Water Island.
Water Island
Let’s dive in to some salient points from a 2020 piece from Politico:
Lobbyist bought tropical land from Biden’s brother
Scott Green, a lobbyist with close ties to Joe Biden, purchased Virgin Islands property from James Biden and then extended him a private mortgage.
In 2005, Joe Biden’s brother bought an acre of land with excellent ocean views on a remote island in the Caribbean for $150,000. He divided it into three parcels, and the next year a lobbyist close to the Delaware senator bought one of the parcels for what had been the cost of the entire property. Later, the lobbyist gave Biden’s brother a mortgage loan on the remaining parcels.
The Virgin Islands land deal, reported here for the first time, furthers a pattern in which members of the Biden family have engaged in financial dealings with people with an interest in influencing the former vice president.
[…]
After the land deal, Joe Biden vacationed elsewhere on the tiny island, which once protected a nearby submarine base before it became a tropical getaway, on at least three occasions.
The property itself has remained vacant and undeveloped. It is not clear why the lobbyist, Scott Green, purchased the parcel from Biden’s brother James, or why James Biden later went to the lobbyist for a loan, rather than to a bank. An easement James Biden obtained granting road access to the land before selling it to Green may have made the land more valuable, but it is unclear whether the dramatically higher price Green paid for his parcel reflected its true value. The terms of the loan were not disclosed in property records.
[…]
Green has led a parallel career in Washington. After working as a probation officer after college, Green accepted an offer from Biden in the early 1980s for a job on the Senate Judiciary Committee, where he worked for a decade in roles that included staff assistant and senior advisor.
From the Senate, Green pivoted to the private sector.
In 1994, he co-founded Lafayette Group, a lobbying and consulting firm focused on law enforcement and national security that is now headed by his son.
[…]
Government contracts for niche support services for law enforcement and national security agencies have been central to the firm’s business over the years, according to a firm history posted on its website.
In the Senate, Biden over the years proposed appropriations for many of the niche areas in which the firm specialized, including “interoperable communications” for first responders and “fusion centers” for processing threat-related intelligence.
[…]
From 2012 to 2018, according to Lafayette Group’s firm history, it received contracts tied to at least one government program championed by Biden: The Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network.
[…]
In total, Lafayette Group has received more than $10 million in contracts for work related to the network, now called FirstNet, according to government data.
[…]
Another lobbying client of Green’s, the non-profit Drug Abuse Resistance Education program (D.A.R.E.), had benefited from Biden’s support over the course of more than two decades, both before and after Green’s land purchase.
[…]
Biden ensured its inclusion in the 1994 Crime Bill, making it eligible to compete for hundreds of millions of dollars in federal funds.
[…]
In the years since the land deals, the U.S. Virgin Islands have been a favored destination for the Biden clan. In between election night 2008 and Barack Obama’s inauguration, Biden and his family traveled to Water Island over the winter holidays. As vice president, he returned to the island over the next two holiday seasons.
[…]
In the later years of the Obama administration, Biden and his family continued to vacation annually in the Virgin Islands, but on St. Croix. The Water Island landowner said the Bidens switched to the larger island because it was more practical for traveling with an entourage that included Secret Service agents.
Over the holiday season before launching his presidential campaign, Biden again traveled to St. Croix, where he was spotted on New Year’s Day 2019.
I should point out that St. Croix is still only 40 miles from Epstein Island. It would take about 15-20 minutes to travel by helicopter.
The previous article about the Bidens not only points out their possible corruption, but also their proclivity to vacation near Epstein Island at a time Epstein’s operation seemed to be in “full swing”.
It also points out how connected Biden was with Clinton in pushing forward the 1994 Crime Bill, and how his “buddy” just happened to start a business the same year, which would benefit greatly from the new Crime Bill.
Buying property near Epstein Island and regularly vacationing in the area would make good cover for someone who wanted to discretely visit Epstein Island, especially if you had a reputation of being a child-sniffing weirdo.
Did the purchase of the property on Water Island have a dual purpose? Money laundering and an excuse to be in the area so often?
Flying down to vacation on an Island you own property on would keep you off the Lolita Express flight logs, and even if you were on them, you could say you were “bumming a ride” to your property on Water Island. Flying down on Air Force One or Air Force Two while Vice President would have the same effect—just ask Hunter Biden.
Epstein bought Little St. James Island in 1998. In 2008, the main house on the island was renovated, while Epstein spent a year confined in a low-security prison cell each evening in Florida. During this time, Ghislaine Maxwell got her helicopter license. In 2008, the Biden family started vacationing regularly in the immediate proximity of Epstein Island.
Interesting, to say the least.
With Epstein’s guilty plea in 2008, there seemed to be a shift and need to take his blackmail operations offshore. It was no longer safe, or rather, he no longer had the protection to run the blackmailing operation as safely within the US borders. We know Donald Trump worked with the prosecution team to convict Epstein the first time around in 2008, and Trump was POTUS the second time Epstein was arrested in 2019, as well as during the Ghislaine Maxwell arrest a year later.
Pedophile blackmailing aside, if one is to live on a remote island a couple of miles away from the Island of St. Thomas, and 10 miles from the airport, it makes sense that a billionaire would have a helicopter and pilot to take him and his guests to his island. There isn’t anything inherently nefarious about this. But why would Ghislaine need a submarine license, as well?
Using a submarine screams that something nefarious is going on. It makes one question whether or not the submarine was used to transport cargo, or more likely passengers in a way they would not be detected. Satellites catch a lot, but I doubt they would catch a submarine entering a James Bond-like villain’s island lair through an underwater pathway.
Ok, I admit it, I really liked Thunderball as a kid, but it is really strange how much Bond villains and the Deep State players seem to match up—as though we were being shown for 60 years what’s really going on.
What am I saying, here?
Any speculation I’m making is just that—speculation. I have no proof that Joe Biden or any Biden ever stepped foot on an Epstein property. Maybe that will be released as more information about Epstein comes out. Still, Joe Biden has been branded everything from a child-sniffer in the mainstream to having an inappropriate relationship with his own daughter, according to rumors stemming out of the Ashley Biden diary scandal.
According to the Hunter laptop scandal, some allege that Hunter Biden had a strange relationship with his niece, not to mention an ongoing relationship with his dead brother’s wife, or with the countless prostitutes he wrote off on his taxes.
What is indisputable fact is the Bidens owned property and vacationed regularly in close proximity to Epstein Island at a time when Epstein was regularly shuffling in elites to his Pedo Island a stone’s throw away—a quick helicopter ride or a submarine trip is all that separated them.
I realize that in today’s society, 1 + 1 + 1 doesn’t always equal 3, especially when math is accused of being racist, and created by White, heterosexual, Christian men who use it to keep everyone else down. But in this case, where there’s smoke, there is probably fire.
Earth is comprised of 197 million square miles, and the Biden family regularly vacationed less than 40 miles, and many times less than 10 miles from Epstein Island.
What are the odds?

Excellent piece Erik! Definitely some interesting connections that seem more than just a coincidence.
I do believe where there is smoke, there is also fire.
Keep up the great work!
