The document cites a source linking Jared Kushner and a religious Jewish group accused of seeking to hijack Trump’s presidency

A declassified FBI memo from the Epstein files, released on Friday, includes incendiary allegations about US President Donald Trump.

The memo says that Trump was “compromised by Israel”, that convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein worked with Israeli intelligence, and that a Jewish religious group calling itself Chabad-Lubavitch sought to hijack his first term in office.

The memo, written in 2020, formed part of an FBI investigation into domestic or foreign influence over the US electoral process. It draws on information from a confidential human source (CHS) and appears among a vast trove of Epstein-related files released by the US Justice Department.

Chabad-Lubavitch, a religious Jewish sect founded in Russia, has grown to an estimated 90,000 members. Its messianic, ultra-Orthodox ideology has repeatedly been linked to hardline settler colonial politics in Palestine.

The memo also cites Berel Lazar, a Chabad member and the former chief rabbi of Russia, describing him as a close adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Chabad is basically state-sanctioned Judaism. It is used by Putin to keep tabs on all the Russo-Jewish oligarchs,” the FBI memo adds.

The source goes further, saying: “Trump has been compromised by Israel. And Kushner is the real brains behind his organization and his Presidency.”

    To placate Russia, Israel told Baltic states it would block weapon transfers to Ukraine: Sources

    Not sure what you think that proves to be honest.

    Kind of the same thing but more in-depth about Russia:

    Again, all this shows is that Israelis know that Russia can retaliate against them. This is not evidence of some conspiracy between Israel and Russia.

    You know, that whole Jepstein story where they blackmail the elite of the world…

    So literally just going to ignore the fact that Israel was seeking regime change in Russia because it doesn’t fit with your conspiracy theories?

      Not sure what you think that proves to be honest.

      … Because Israel literally imposed a ban on their weapons being sent to Ukraine at the start of the war?

      Sure seems strange that the weapons manufacterer all of Europa and NA relies on for their Apartheid genocide weapons suddenly decides to ban their weapons being sent to Russia for moral reasons.

      So literally just going to ignore the fact that Israel was seeking regime change in Russia because it doesn’t fit with your conspiracy theories?

      Israel seeks regime change everywhere because the leader doesn’t lick the heels of Israel hard enough. Unlike the USA, which gives Israel everything for free, Putin makes deals with Israel. A meeting with an exiled Russian billionaire sounds more like an opportunity to extract cash than anything else.

      Also there’s a lot of Epstein files out there to still be calling them it a “conspiracy”.
