Hey Zev, I sent you an e-mail today (8/15/25) at this address: narativ@substack.com

In my e-mail I passed along various information and documentation regarding Tiffany Doe, who witnessed the rape of Katie Johnson by Donald Trump, and worked for Epstein from 1991-2000 "as a recruiter of adolescent women to attend Mr. Epstein's parties."

Not sure if that's a valid e-mail address for you. Feel free to let me know if I can help further.

This is absolutely disgraceful!!! I agree a thousand percent with EVERYTHING you’ve said Mr. Shalev. The nerve of this POS to invite the other POS on to American soil is outrageous!! I cannot comprehend the ignorance of anyone that supports Trump. I am disgusted!!! Putin should have been arrested the moment he stepped on the tarmac - along with Trump and an immediate impeachment!!!!

Hi Zev, I’m a new subscriber and have a question that I believe you may be able to help answer. I love your coverage so far of all of the ties between nefarious groups and our current president. The Epstein and Trump ties our so blatant not one can ignore them.

My question is about the Big Beautiful Bill, and the tight leash that Trump seems to have on the republicans in office currently. They do whatever he wants, rather than supporting their constituents.

Are they also being granted protected from the release of the financial and other files the FBI has against Epstein, in return for their cooperation? I can see this administration using it as much as blackmail material as self preservation.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I think we're going to discover many Republicans implicated.

What an embarrassment. A meeting on American soil, a red carpet welcome, a choreographed deplaning, and the cherry on top of the cake, a ride for Putin in The Beast. My God. Putin looked like a man in heaven smiling from that car. Condoleezza Rice smartly suggested after the charade ended The Beast should be swept for a bug Putin may have planted in it. Putin got everything. Trump got nothing for his way too chummy efforts. America lost. Ukraine lost and Putin got to head home having swallowed the canary.

This Russian murderer makes me want to throw up 🤮 so arrogant and full of self righteousness, murdering Ukrainians and destroying their country as if it’s his right . He is diabolical. And, is it really even him ?? Or could it be one of his many body doubles sent by the Russian machine because the real Putin is dead /incompetent/or paranoid and can’t leave his safe space.

Because of your President America has become an accomplice to one of the world’s most evil and satanic governments of this time 🌎 😖🥺😏

I was surprised Donald didn't offer up AK on a silver plate for Putin! How disgusting & treasonous was the situation where our American military were unrolling the red carpet for this war criminal! I don't know how the situation is in the Senate , but there are 3 or 4 GOP House members who cross over now. Rep Massie & Rep Don Bacon are 2. So if they have 80 in the Senate we can definitely destroy Putin with sanctions. The EU Consortium has instituted massive sanctions on Russia already & EU is giving Ukraine military aid. EU also has a energy plan starting to increase their independence from Russian oil.

...this from the New York Times 8/16/25:

“He got played again,” said Ivo Daalder, who was ambassador to NATO under President Barack Obama. “For all the promises of a cease-fire, of severe economic consequences, of being disappointed, it took two minutes on the red carpet and 10 minutes in the Beast for Putin to play Trump again. What a sad spectacle.”

Wow such spot on commentary Zev saying exactly what this whole thing means and calling out what needs doing. It’s okay you are preaching we are all feeling the same. It’s infuriating.

Can’t wait for your next instalment The Greatest Heist.

Crazy how Putin is pretending to be a decent person. Only MAGA may buy into the BS.
