Two of the perhaps most surprising names to appear in the Epstein files are those of the Dalai Lama and Deepak Chopra. Jimmy and his guest, filmmaker Mikki Willis, question the two spiritual leaders' judgment and continued associations after Epstein's conviction, focusing on controversial emails, disputed interpretations of public incidents, and broader criticism of celebrity spiritual leaders who preach enlightenment while allegedly maintaining ties to powerful elites. Chopra's past writings and public persona are contrasted with his defensive and evasive responses when confronted about Epstein by a journalist at the airport. The segment expands into a wider critique of the "new age" movement, masculinity, parenting philosophy, and what the speakers describe as ego-driven hypocrisy within spiritual communities. Plus segments on Russia rescuing Cuba from Trump's oil embargo and Hugh Hefner as the original honeypot operator. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Howard Lutnick!
I'll be in Lansing, Milwaukee, Albuquerque, Houston, Dallas, Salt Lake City, Las Vegas.

Establishment media sets of artists fighting.
So good luck.
Bullshit, we can't afford there's been a lot of people in the spiritual community that have been caught up, including the Dalai Lama, have been caught in the Epstein files and also with Deepak Chopra.
But so here is Savior tweets out.
Newly released emails reveal the Dalai Lama, the Tibetan Buddhist spiritual teacher, met repeatedly with Jeffrey Epstein, and his name is mentioned at least 169 times in the files.
So here's, so this is a video.
I don't want to show it, but it's a video of him putting his tongue out and having the kid kiss it and him kissing the kids.
It was weird.
He actually tells the child, suck on my tongue.
Suck on my tongue.
So people have tried to explain that away as being cultural.
And so I don't know enough about the culture, so I don't want to get into it too much with that.
Have you heard the same excuses that when he did that, it was cultural?
I have, that he is so enlightened that he's childlike, and that was just one child to another playing around.
But I have spent time with the Dalai Lama personally.
I spent 10 days with him day and night filming a project in 2008.
And at this time, I was exploring all the different world religions.
And Tibetan Buddhism was one of my favorites.
So there's a lot of principles that I still follow today.
Mindfulness is a really great practice.
Meditation is a great practice.
But I will tell you what really turned me off here is we were going in to look for a location to do an interview with the Dalai Lama.
So they had us in his suite.
And so I noticed the toilet bowl was filled with bright orange yellow urine.
And I went to flush it as we were doing this walkthrough.
And one of his aides said, no, I said, oh, I'm sorry.
And he said, his disciples will come and drink that.
You got to be kidding.
No, I'm not kidding.
And I said, I'm sorry.
Wait, wait.
I'm sorry.
They're going to drink out of the toilet.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I said, why?
They said, well, they feel that it will give them enlightenment.
It will give them, you know, some of the properties that have made His Holiness so amazing.
So they come in here as soon as we allow them to, and they'll drink out of the toilet.
And so did you just kind of like brush it off and keep going, or did it kind of shake you?
It kind of put a damper on the trip, I'll just say, because it went from, oh, he's just this beautiful, loving thing to like, this is okay, I understand.
Look, I worked with a lot of indigenous cultures, a lot of cultures around the world, and everyone has different traditions.
And so they have their own justification for that.
And maybe it's not as dark as it sounds to us Westerners, possibly.
But when he then started to come out and get involved in things like COVID, he pushed hard for the COVID vaccines.
The Dalai Lama did?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah.
People have said he's compromised by the CIA.
We know CIA was a big driving force behind COVID because it came from DARPA, came from the military-industrial complex, is where it came from.
So go ahead.
I'm sorry.
So it makes you wonder.
You know, it makes you wonder.
I don't like to pass judgment too quickly on people.
But that's, you know, when I see that, when you see somebody towing the line, it was the gradual awakening I had towards Bernie Sanders, which I know you had this same awakening with of just seeing like, okay, it says a lot of things we really like, but boy, he keeps pushing policies and people and things that are just so contrast to everything it sounds like he stands for.
What is going on here?
And again, he was one that pushed hard on the COVID vaccines too.
So I look at these spiritual leaders and I know this world really well.
As I said, I lived in it and I was all in.
I mean, I was woo-woo as it can get.
And I had people warn me when I was in it.
I remember having a really wise guy say to me one time, be very, very, very careful of this community that you're inhabiting right now.
And I said, why?
He said, because the New Age movement is the ego's favorite place to hide.
And it took me years to kind of unpack that and to kind of watch that unfold to realize, you know, that is what we're struggling with a lot is this false persona that we call the ego.
The Ego's New Age Hideout00:05:51
And the New Age movement provided, there's a lot of value in it.
So I don't want to trash it all.
But the New Age movement provided a cover for those who really don't want to do the work.
All they want to do is change their dialect.
They want to be able to put on some loose-fitting white clothing and make eye contact way too long and say the right things.
And suddenly instead of trying to get laid and hooking up, they're talking about sacred sexuality and Tantra.
And so it's like they're doing the same things.
They're womanizing, but it's okay because it's at Burning Man or it's at a temple or, you know, but it's the same game, but kind of softened.
It's also where men also learn to be less masculine because the whole thing is about, you know, none of that, no force, you know, no strength, just everything is just Tai Chi through it all, Aikido through it all.
And so I tried that for a long time.
And it wasn't until I had children and then we were trying to teach our children that I realized these kids are developing a mentality and they're running us.
Our children were, you know, four and six and they were running us because they saw dad as soft.
And because we were trying to do this conscious parenting thing where I remember one time I was at the park in Ojai and I was watching this little boy pummel his mother in the face, sitting on her lap, pummel her.
And she's going, okay, I see that you're angry and something must have really, ow, ow, ow, ow, okay, that's hard.
It really upset you and you're angry.
And it's like just the whole thing, just talk through it all.
And it wasn't until one day I just went, you know, I'm going to scrap all this bullshit and I'm going to do, I'm going to follow my instincts and I'm going to be a man.
I'm going to, I'm going to, what the result of it was this, is my kids discovered that their dad is not to be messed with.
And as a result, they felt safe in a dangerous world.
And so they didn't try to pull the same BS on us.
They stopped all of that because they also had a sense of respect for the pecking order in our home, which I started to really lay into it heavily.
Like, you never disrespect your mother.
Let's go back to some old-fashioned, like all of our history, all of our old ways, which have just been deemed as kind of barbaric and archaic and wrong, because that's what's led to capitalism and the destruction of everything.
I don't know.
I think we kind of have thrown the baby out with the bathwater with a lot of those practices.
So I just went, I'm just going to go and thank God my wife was willing to let me go there.
And there are a few times when she said, I don't know if you need to yell like that.
No, I'm going to yell because this is what I feel inside.
And it turned out to be the right thing to do because, like I said, in the end, my kids are balanced.
They're good kids.
And they have respect for their elders.
They have good old-fashioned respect.
They open doors for women and for elderly people.
But we need to come back to some of that.
But that new age world was where I was starting to.
It also is where I first started to recognize that they're changing the language.
Suddenly now, the language that we've spoken forever.
I remember one time that we, you know, because it was a live-work environment we lived in, and I said, okay, guys, we really.
We really have to get some work today done today.
We're on a deadline.
And one of the members of our community goes, Can we call it a lifeline?
Why would you use the word dead?
I was like, what is going on here?
Like everything, we're so sensitive that now all these words and terminologies that we've used forever are now being frowned upon.
And you want us to bend everything to make you comfortable so you're not.
And I realized later, I'm like, oh, this is the feelings over facts crowd.
This is where it's starting.
Like we're shaping everything in our physical world to make us feel better instead of dealing with the realities of the world and doing something about them.
And so that's why I say that it was the incubator for the woke movement because it really did a lot of damage to a lot of men who are now stepping out of it.
I'm talking with a lot of my friends that can look back and go, wow, you know, not only was I a big phony, but it really did some damage to my strength, who I am as a person and my personal strength.
And it also got me into this constant processing, you know, which is a big thing in the New Age world where, you know, and the mind loves it, right?
Because the mind loves riddles and it loves to work things out.
But there was this constant processing.
Like the moment I realized something I do or a bad habit of mine, I need to now take three days off to process and meditate.
And it just became this thing where it was impossible to get any work done in our community.
And then if I were, and then another aspect of it that was weird was because I was the founder of the company, there was this thing starting to happen to me, which was people started to treat me as if I was the leader of this group.
And it was weird because I thought, well, I can, you know, and for a moment, it kind of affected me.
I kind of felt powerful because people would always, everything I said was right and it was kind of strange.
And I thought, wow, this is how the members of a cult create the cult leader, is they give them the power.
They give them their power.
And that's false power when we take it from others.
And so recognizing that is when I said, I want out of all of this.
I just want to live a simple life.
I want to put my hands in the soil.
I want to raise my kids.
I want to be good to my wife.
And I don't think it's that hard, really.
But this self-help thing makes everything a lot of work.
I got to read a lot of books.
But I realized since then, it's kind of like, no, I don't.
I just kind of have to remember the stuff I forgot.
That's really the work now, just remembering all this good stuff that we've been, it's been drilled out of our psyche.
Ukraine Girls Regret00:13:19
So here is the email from the Dalai Lama.
So back here, it's, so this is from Epstein, and it's blacked out who it's to.
At the bottom, it says, wow, OMG, it's that fast.
I thought, because Ukraine girls, not redacted, not going to see you for months.
Sneaky dog redacted.
So sorry.
I wish I could come today, but I could see you tomorrow after school.
Please, redacted, going now to the event with Dalai Lama then.
B-Day dinner with Anastasia, and it is her birthday.
This is him saying he's going to hang out with the Dalai Lama after he's talking about young Ukrainian girls.
And then up here, you didn't ask if I need help.
I told you yesterday.
I was home.
I'm very, very angry.
Talk to you later in the week.
Sorry for that.
Didn't check my email since yesterday morning.
You know that I don't have an internet in my phone.
Why didn't you call me or text me on my phone if you need me about the event?
I told you almost a month ago on Island that Dalai Lama is coming and I want to go there to see him, but I can skip this event if you need my help today.
So I didn't call.
Go to the event.
This is BS.
So who this?
How do we know this is the Dalai Lama?
I don't know about that particular email.
I released one.
Have you seen the one that the first one that I released has an exchange between them that starts off with Deepak asking, cells are human, or Jeffrey asking, does a cell have form?
Is a cell aware?
Does it have emotion?
Does it perform actions?
Did you find me?
So you tweeted this out.
Jeffrey Epstein.
Did you find me a cute Israeli girl?
So Jeffrey Epstein says to Deepak, Does a cell have form?
Is a cell aware?
Does it have emotion?
Does it perform actions?
Did you find me a cute Israeli?
Deepak responds: Cells are human constructs.
No such thing.
Universe is human, is human construct.
No such thing.
Cute girls are aware when they make noises.
God is a construct.
Cute girls are real.
Oh, are you kidding me?
No.
That's a real, that's a real.
That is a real email between the two.
Here's a little more.
Jeffrey Epstein says, so when the girl says, oh my God, Deepak Chopra says, yes, that's divine transcendence.
That sounds creepy beyond belief.
Keep going.
Epstein says, oh, I thought she was just referring to me.
Chopra says, that's because you are God and drag.
Chopra then says, come to Israel with us.
Relax and have fun with interesting people.
If you want to use a fake name, bring your girls.
It will be fun to have you.
Love Deepak.
Holy F.
Yeah.
Then it keeps going.
Another one, Jeffrey Epstein, says, next time I'm in Santa Fe, Monday.
Deepak says, okay, your girls would love it, as would you.
Be well, sending love.
Epstein responds, another location, I do not like Israel at all.
Shocking and not.
And this is all after Jeffrey is a known pedophile.
He's already been known as a PDF file.
So here's some more stuff.
This is from Deepak Chopra.
I don't know.
The Tiger is bringing me to places I had absconded.
It looks like the MGH, Harvard Chopra Mind Brain Institute, will actually happen, which means writing the Tiger even more.
I've wanted validation from scientists.
Some is happening, and some will remain ever skeptical and condescending.
Suddenly, it does not feel important.
What do I enjoy most?
I don't know what I can say, really.
My biological needs are met occasionally, but that too, it seems I've been there, done that.
I have three more books to write, and then we'll be done with that as well.
I will be going for one week's silence at the end of this month with a small group.
Maybe some more clarity than I do enjoy the company of younger, intellectually sharp and self-aware women and love to engage with them to inspire and stimulate them.
Oh my, that is, this is kind of crazy.
I didn't, I've read a lot of Deepak Chopra's books.
Yeah.
And a lot of his books is him just much like Wayne Dyer.
He's quoting spiritual leaders from the past and spiritual texts from the past.
So a lot of the stuff he's written is actually makes sense and has a spiritual foundation to it, but he doesn't live by the stuff he writes is what it sounds like, and that he's a complete fake.
Okay.
And here he is trying to address this.
He got community noted.
He says, I am deeply saddened by the suffering of the victims in this case, and I unequivocally condemn abuse and exploitation in all forms.
I want to be clear.
I was never involved, nor did I participate in any criminal or exploitative conduct.
Any conduct I had was limited.
And so then right underneath it says, Mr. Chopra fails to mention that his emails are dated after Mr. Epstein had been tried and found guilty of inappropriate SEX conduct with minors.
Whoa.
So I worked with Mr. Chopra twice many years ago.
I know you're a fan of the work of Carl Jung.
And we were actually doing a movie on Carl Jung's work.
You're kidding.
I didn't know this.
It was called, geez, 17 years ago or so.
It was called The Shadow Effect.
Right.
Okay.
And it was all about the human shadow.
And I was just learning about his work.
And so we had, at that time, I thought Deepak Chopra was a wonderfully intelligent human being.
I think his books, Seven Spiritual Laws of Success or something like that.
Yeah, I read that book.
It was very helpful, in fact.
Very helpful.
Very helpful, of course.
And we also know that they don't always write their own books.
Right.
And so I ended up at the Chopra Center down in San Diego.
And it was a very weird experience.
And which his staff was terrified of him.
So it was really weird to me because I thought I was expecting kind of a whole other kind of loving vibe.
But everything was like them coming in the room and going, okay, he's running a little bit late.
And tell me again, what are you going to ask him?
And I would start to, you know, get a sentence out.
They go, oh, no, no, God, please don't.
Oh, God, don't ask him.
Don't ask him that way.
Here's how we suggest you ask that question.
I said, oh, oh, okay, I don't see the difference, but okay, there's a lot of fear and it was kind of coming back.
And okay, he's getting ready now.
He's coming.
It was like, is Michael Jackson coming?
What?
Right.
What is this fanfare?
This is weird.
And then he comes in and he does the limp-handed kind of looking away.
I say, hi, hi.
Doesn't look anyone in the eye.
And I thought right away, I was like, oh, no, never meet your heroes.
I should have listened.
And he sits down.
Okay, you know, right away, like, get this done.
Get this out of the way really quick.
I got things to do.
And not friendly at all.
He did a great interview.
As soon as the cameras and lights were on, you know, he's very articulate.
And he was a great interview.
But then, you know, as soon as he got to a certain point where we needed more, he's like, I'm done.
You got what you got.
You're lucky that you got me.
It really was attitude.
Like, you're lucky you even got 20 minutes with me.
So just count your blessings.
It's on Deepak Chopra.
That's what it felt like.
And he left the room.
And we were all like, geez, okay.
But like I said, the interview was fantastic.
We got what we needed from him.
And then through the years, I would hear from people that were, you know, in the Los Angeles spiritual community.
I would hear a lot of little rumors of how mean he is to his staff.
And so when this thing, when this stuff came out, I wasn't surprised because when the ego gets that big.
And the other thing we haven't talked about, Jimmy, too, is the Red Shoe Club, which I'm sure you're aware of.
I've heard mention of the Red Shoe Club.
Yes, I have.
Let me, can I just show you this?
So someone actually, I got suspicious of Deepak Chopra when I started seeing him wearing these glasses.
And on the side, they're very thick and they have diamonds on the side.
Rhinestones.
Rhinestones.
And I was like, that's not right.
I mean, I don't, I mean, I'm not a jewelry guy.
I don't wear a necklace.
I don't wear earrings.
I don't wear rings or even a watch.
I don't wear anything.
And so that's why it stood out to me.
I'm like, what do you, what is that?
I mean, I'm not against somebody dressing up.
I like people who look nice, but that seemed a little like Elvis Presleyist for a superchi or Liberace or Elton John.
Sounds like he did.
Did Elton John know that you're stealing his glasses, Deepak?
I mean, because that's what it looked like.
And so somebody confronted him over his appearances at an airport, and they won.
Very respectfully, they're asking for his comment on how he ended up in these Epstein files.
And let's watch a little bit of it anyway.
Mr. Chopra, sir, how are you?
Sir, I've got to ask you this.
If that doesn't say, I know the true meaning of life, if that doesn't say I know the true meaning of life and it's not material goods, it's spirituality.
And we're only possessing this body for a short time.
We're actually a soul, and we're not.
That'll tell you right there.
So that to me is gross for us.
Well, in a Super Bowl of spirituality, we don't get football rings.
We get rhinestone glasses.
Right.
Now you could say the same thing about the popes and the way they have a gold toilet and all that stuff.
And, you know, I have just as big a problem with that stuff as I do with this, but here we go.
Sir, you've built your entire career.
You built your entire career on spirituality.
What do you have to say about your actions with Epstein?
Any regrets?
Do you have any regrets?
I said, you have any regrets about your, you know, your relationship with Epstein.
What's that?
You want me to decide?
No, I'm asking you, sir.
You get the aero please.
Look, what?
You have a right to yourself.
Look, I'm asking you.
I'm asking you, sir.
When did you know the scope of Epstein's actions, sir?
It wasn't that much.
And why did you keep the relationship going for so long?
Is there anything you could say?
Every time I see those glasses, I get the Erica Kirk vibe coming over me.
But here we go.
Mr. Chopra, anything at all?
Sir, you had a relationship with him after 2008, after his conviction.
Is there anything you can say about that at all, sir?
You do your own work and find out.
I am.
I'm asking you.
I'm coming right to you, sir.
Not answering.
Oh, well, I'm asking.
You don't have to answer.
I'm not dancing.
Sir, sir, you said God is a construct.
I know.
I'm going to ask you.
You don't have to answer.
That's fine.
God is a construct.
And cute girls are real, sir.
You know, it wasn't tone, sir.
It was more than tone.
And I don't have an opinion.
That's why I'm asking you.
I'm just asking the questions.
This is an important topic.
It's very important.
I'm going to guess this is the last time Deepak Dropa doesn't have a car waiting for him at the curb.
Where is he going?
I don't take that long of a walk in the airport.
You go out to the curb, you have the car, you get in the car.
Where is he going?
I don't understand where he's going.
From what I understand, though, Lolita Express is available.
Yeah.
You could answer it right here and put it to bed, yeah?
Okay, sure.
Let me ask you this.
Had a position of trust, a position of power, and people feel let down by that.
Do you have any regrets at all?
He's still walking.
Where's he still?
Let me ask you this: do you wish you distanced yourself from him earlier, sooner?
Finally, he's at the car.
Misconduct and Regret00:02:53
Listen, look, the people want to know, sir.
The people want to know.
The people have a right to know.
The victims have a right to know, don't they?
Let's talk about fun stuff like the Patriots.
The Patriots.
The Patriots.
You know, the Seahawks are going to win.
Listen, Mr. Chopra, I'm just doing my job.
You know that.
Right?
Congratulate you.
Well, I'm told I do good work.
And I'm not being aggressive.
I'm not being hostile, but this is an important topic.
It will all come to light.
It'll all come to light.
Look, is there anything that you can tell me here and now to at least start to put this to bed?
No misconduct.
There's no misconduct.
No misconduct.
That's his official zero.
Zero misconduct.
Would you, would you.
So if there was really zero misconduct, why would you be so defensive?
Why wouldn't you want to answer these questions?
If there was zero misconduct, I'm sure there's an innocent explanation for all this.
But of course, he's not giving it to you.
Well, he had to take all that time to walk to come up with that idea.
It took a long time.
I just love how the lady who's with him obviously went to the Pam Bondi School of Deflection.
Yes.
She went right to, what about that Super Bowl?
Let's talk about the Dow.
Let's not talk about this.
So crazy.
How about them New England Patriots?
You think they're going to be able to pick up the blitz?
You think one of the beautiful things that's happening right now, Jimmy, is the American people, the people around the world are becoming relentless.
They're not buying into the same distractions.
The look over there isn't working anymore.
Like this awesome bold reporter who's like relentlessly, you know, I'm going to follow you as long as I can to let you know that we see you.
So I hadn't seen that clip yet.

Strangling Cuba00:10:38
So, Trump is strangling Cuba.
They're doing a thing called siege warfare.
That's an international war crime.
They've cut off all the fuel.
They've sanctioned every country if you do business with them.
Meaning, if you send them, if you trade with Cuba, if you send them medicine, if you send them food, if you send them baby formula, if you send them fuel, if you send them oil, if you do anything, the United States is going to crush you economically, right?
Because we have the reserve currency of the world.
We have that power.
We still sanction people.
And so now countries are lining up to blockade them.
So Allen says during COVID, Cuba did nothing but help other countries around the world, often for free.
They would export their doctors.
Now those same countries are lining up to impose U.S. blockade on it.
Shameful, Slavish servants of empire.
And Marco Rubio is the one really pushing this, and that's why he's in there.
He's in there because the Zionists wanted him in there.
And Trump is nothing but a cuck to Zionists and Israel.
So Marco Rubio is deliberately blocking Trump from Cuba talks.
The Secretary of State has told the president that talks are happening with high-level Cuban officials.
No such talks exist.
Purported negotiations in Mexico, actual fake news.
When it comes to Trump's claims of those talks, it turns out he's lying.
Instead, it turns out he isn't lying about those talks.
Instead, sources tell dropsight he's being lied to.
He's saying that because that's what Marco Rubio is telling him, said a senior Trump official, referring to an internal effort by Secretary of State Marco Rubio to make Trump believe that the U.S. and Cuba are engaged in serious negotiations without ever doing so.
The idea, the source said, is that in a few weeks or months, Rubio will be able to claim that the talks were futile because of Cuban intransigence.
With diplomatic off-ramps being blocked, this would make Rubio's vision of regime change the only path forward for an administration loath to reverse courts on anything.
So what they're doing now, so now the United States, they're being crushed, right?
The U.S. is crushed.
The people are, they don't have food.
They don't have fuel.
They can't run their hospitals.
They can't run their schools.
They don't have food.
Nothing.
They don't have money to, they don't have energy to light their streetlights.
Nothing.
So instead of, so we're doing exactly what Israel does to the Gaza.
Instead of wiping them out all completely, we give them just enough so they don't starve completely.
The U.S. is sending small fuel shipment to Cuba after blockading the island supply, cooking gas, diesel to keep water flowing.
So you got to have power or else people don't have drinking water and then you die immediately.
So they're making sure just we're suffocating them, but not to the point of mass death.
But let's remember, Cuba are the ones that support terrorism.
We're the terrorists.
We're the terrorists.
Wow.
Like the U.S. is taking a page out of the Israelis playbook.
Control everything in and out of Cuba, just like Israel does, control everything in and out of Gaza, which is why they can starve them.
They can cut off their water, cut off their fuel, cut off everything.
So guess who's coming to the rescue?
Russia.
Russia is going to supply Cuba with oil.
Russia is preparing to send a shipment of oil and petroleum products to Cuba.
Moscow's embassy in Havana has announced the island is facing its worst energy crisis in years after the U.S. doubled down on its campaign to cut off its energy supplies.
The fuel crisis intensified dramatically after U.S. forces kidnapped, oh, thank God somebody's using the real language.
They kidnapped Venezuelan president Maduro in early January, severing oil supplies from Caracas, which had been one of Cuba's main suppliers.
Washington subsequently threatened to impose tariffs on any country providing oil to Cuba, with Mexico later suspending crude shipments to the island.
So even Mexico is knuckling under.
The U.S. itself has maintained an economic embargo on Cuba since the 1960s.
The Russian embassy in Cuba confirmed that the Caribbean island is facing an acute shortage of oil and petroleum products, adding that while the crisis has lasted for more than a year, the stop of supplies from Venezuela has aggravated the situation.
The embassy said it is planning to send oil and petroleum products to Cuba in the near future as humanitarian aid, though without specifying the timeframe or the volumes.
Cuba is believed to be down to just three months' reserves of oil supplies, while shipping from Russia to Cuba generally takes approximately 40 to 50 days for a sea freight, that's ocean cargo, including loading and unloading times.
The last major Russian oil delivery to Cuba occurred in February 2025 when Moscow sent 100,000 tons through a state credit worth U.S. $60 million approved by President Vladimir Putin.
Cuba is estimated to consume 500 to 600 tons of fuel per day for its most critical needs, and it requires over 8 million tons of fuel per year to function normally.
In addition, Russian officials reported that Moscow is assisting Cuba in developing its domestic oil reserves.
While the island's proven crude oil reserves are officially around 120 million barrels, the offshore zone of the North Cuba basin is estimated to hold up to 20 billion barrels, or the equivalent of about 146 billion tons, enough to satisfy Cuba's domestic needs for 650 years.
China is also assisting by installing extensive solar power projects, aiming to build 92 solar parks by 2028 and add 2,000 megawatts to the grid, 92 solar parks.
The initiative, largely financed via Chinese development credits, features Yangtze Ecology and Energy Development Company building infrastructure with the first major projects already connected to the grid in early 2025, thus reducing Cuba's dependence on U.S.-controlled oil supplies.
Moscow has condemned the U.S. pressure campaign on Cuba as economic strangulation and neocolonial practice while reaffirming solidarity with the island.
Mexico has also defied Washington by sending oil supplies to Cuba.
Well, that's now getting contradictory.
Because earlier in the article, they said they stopped.
So maybe they have stopped, but earlier they were doing that.
U.S. President Donald Trump said last month that the pressure campaign would force the Cuban leadership to come to us and want to make a deal, claiming that the island would be free again.
Wow.
However, when he says, when Trump says he wants Cuba to come make a deal, he means turn the country over to U.S. economic hitmen.
That's what he means.
He certainly doesn't mean install democracy because the last thing the United States likes are countries that have democracy that can vote their way out of an imperial situation.
They like strong men.
The United States, we like strong men and dictators.
That's what we like doing business with.
And often we'll overthrow democratically elected governments and install a puppet, a strongman, like Pinochet, like we did in Chile.
However, humanitarian concerns are rising globally as Cuban hospitals are now having to close.
They're closing hospitals.
So the same thing they did, we're not bombing their hospitals like Israel did in Gaza, but we're just starving them of power so they can't function.
Water supplies are turned off due to lack of fuel for pumping both fresh and sewage water.
And the threat of major pandemics such as cholera increases, with Washington likely to be seen as culpable if this does happen.
Well, they're trying to keep it just below a mass killing, just below.
And here's, I'll show you the, here's the, here's the solar panels that China's sending them.
They went from 5.8% of their electricity coming from solar to 20.3% in one year.
They have 49 Chinese parks on the grid going up to 92.
So hopefully they can get it up to around 40%, maybe 50% of their electricity coming from solar.
Not a bad idea.
So again, this is Trump doing the exact opposite.
If you think this is a good thing or this is going to help American citizens, it's not.
This is just us being terrorists.
This is called terrorism.
This is us using violence.
This is economic violence, starving people, making them close their hospitals.
They can't get running water.
They can't get their street lights on at night.
They can't get traffic lights on.
They can't do anything.
They can't have refrigerators running for food.
They can't do anything.
So this is economic violence for a political outcome.
And that's the definition of terrorism.
And so, again, the United States are the terrorists, just like we are, just like we were in Iraq, just like we were in Libya, just like we were in Somalia, just like we were in Syria, in Yemen, in Iran, just like we were in Afghanistan.
Now, just like we were in Venezuela, and now we're going to be in, now we are in Cuba.
Not going to be, we are.
We're doing it.
This is the same kind of illegal siege warfare, which is a war crime, that Israel does to the Gazans.
We're doing it to Cuba.
And thank God for Russia.
I hope they get their oil there soon.
And this is, you know, Trump really ratcheting up, getting ready for World War III.
Because remember the Cuban Missile Crisis.
So this is going to be very similar.
Hi, everybody.
I'm here with Mickey Willis, the pandemic director.
Playboy Mansion's Dark Secret00:14:41
And we're talking about, so there's the Epstein files, but I've always said there's not just one Epstein.
There was Diddy.
Diddy, by the way, was not the leader, just like Epstein wasn't the leader, right?
They all have bosses.
Diddy had a boss.
A lot of people think it was the head of Universal Music.
And so here's another type of Epstein thing that was kind of out in the open.
And I just grabbed this article.
It says Hugh Hefner used revenge porn to manipulate women long before we even knew what it was.
And it says ex-Playboy bunny Holly Madison recently opened up about her time in the infamous mansion, detailing how Hugh Hefner would photograph women without their permission and then use the images to blackmail them into staying.
So now, Mickey, what is your knowledge of something like this?
Well, I'm glad this has come in full circle because even though AE did a, I think a 20-episode series on this, not a lot of people saw the series.
And unfortunately, a 20-episode series, it doesn't really get good towards, until it gets towards the end.
And so a lot of people missed what I'm going to share with you today.
So I don't want to assume that everyone knows what a honeypot is.
And this is an article that I'll release soon.
I'm going to read some of this.
But a honeypot is a blackmail scheme.
It uses sexual enticement to lure targets into compromising situations, then exploits those situations through threats of exposing photos, videos, or allegations in order to extort or control the victim.
Jeffrey Epstein and Sean Diddy, Combs, ran similar honeypot operations.
Both were known for hosting lavish parties where drug-fueled hedonism and hidden cameras recorded at all.
New testimony has resurfaced about allegations continue to raise about surveillance practices inside the Playboy mansion.
Multiple former girlfriends, employees, and close associates of Hugh Hefner have publicly alleged that hidden cameras and microphones were installed in bedrooms and private areas of the mansion, with some suggestion that intimate encounters were recorded without consent and possibly used as leverage against guests.
Former Playboy model and Hefner's longtime girlfriend, Sandra Theodore, who lived in a mansion during the late 70s, alleges that Hefner kept video cameras running in all of his bedrooms at all times.
Supporting her account, Stefan Tatenbaum, Hefner's former personal valet, claimed that everything in the bedrooms were recorded and that he once saw a vast collection of videotapes stored in a locked library known only to Hefner and his inner circle.
According to Mr. Tenenbaum, there were celebrities, athletes, even politicians being recorded.
Hefner's widow, Crystal Hefner, detailed in her 2024 memoir that she discovered what was described as spy holes built into bedroom walls.
She claimed that Hefner admitted to her that he had filmed hundreds of encounters over the years.
Several other former employees and Playboy insiders, including assistants and security staff, have suggested that tapes or photos were kept as insurance or leverage.
As journalist Amy Berg put it, this wasn't just a party house.
It was a surveillance state in silk pajamas.
Now, regulars at the mansion are the usual suspects, including Prince Andrew, Roman Polanski, Sean Diddy Combs, Donald Trump, and Bill Cosby.
Cosby, allegedly, had one of the worst reputations at the mansion.
Former employees claimed that when they tried to report his behavior, they were told to be quiet because he was Hefner's best friend.
Playboy Mansion was a front for a massive data gathering operation.
Hefner provided famous men with women and drugs, specifically Kwalutes, which were referred to around the mansion as thigh openers.
Let that sink in.
Recent investigations have drawn parallels between Hefner's mansion and Epstein's private islands.
Both operations used promise of modeling careers and stardom to recruit young women.
Many names found in Epstein's Little Black Book or flight logs were also frequent flyers of the Playboy Mansion, leading to speculation that both entities were part of a larger system of elite compromise.
Now, all the while, Hugh Hefner presented himself to be a champion of women and a feminist, and yet here he was exploiting them.
There's also a lot of rumors that are unproven, but of being tunnels with under the Playboy Mansion.
Right.
I've voted.
We've all heard those.
Yeah.
So now, didn't, so he's dead.
Did he sell that?
Did that get sold to someone, the Playboy?
It got sold, yeah.
It was sold for $100 million.
It was on the market for $200 and ended up selling for $100 million to an Entrepreneur, I think a tech entrepreneur or something like that.
Oh, I would love to know who that person is so we could go to visit his tunnels under the hunger.
But that wasn't even a secret that he had that tunnel.
He had a tunnel that went from his house to the house next door.
Yeah, they say it went to a couple of very famous actors, older Hollywood stars that have all denied it, but they said that it gave them access to come and go as they please without any kind of detection.
But what they have admitted to is they said, no, these are all staff elevators.
These are for changing the linens and for the cooks and all of this.
They say they did not extend off the Playboy property.
But even that, you know, they can still be used for nefarious reasons, moving people from back lots, moving children maybe, from back entrances.
I don't know if you've ever been to the Playboy Mansion.
I have.
It has two entrances.
So you can enter it from the back.
You can enter it from the front.
And they can move in cargo and shuffle people to wherever they want to within the mansion through the tunnels, perhaps, allegedly.
What were you doing at the Playboy Mansion?
I never got it.
I never got it.
I actually went there for Howard Stern's birthday party probably 20 years ago, something like that.
Oh, okay.
And so what else do you want to say about this topic?
About the other Epsteins?
Well, it's really more of a question: when are we going to investigate this?
When are we going to look into where are these tapes?
FBI?
I don't know.
There wasn't an investigation.
So would they be in the hands of investigators?
Maybe not.
Have they been destroyed?
Does the estate own them?
And how have they been used?
And, you know, because this is, we're talking this 1970s on.
So we really start getting into a lot of the different politicians and world leaders that have all come through those doors.
It was a stop for a lot of dignitary, famous men and women from all over the world.
And so I think it's time that we start putting a little pressure on demanding that there's some form of investigation that takes place so that we can at least dig into the possibilities that things that have been decided in our nation perhaps were under the leverage of what they had that compromised some of these people.
And so that's what I'm hoping for is a legitimate investigation, which, you know, I won't hold my breath for that.
But what happened there and who was blackmailed?
And how did Heff use all of this?
There's also stories that I'm digging into too.
There was an apparent kind of a Zionist takeover of Playboy that started a little bit in the 70s, but then really started around 2011 when he wanted to take the company went private and then it went public and that there were a lot of investment that came into the Playboy mansion and that it may have been some of the same forces that were involved with Jeffrey Epstein and the likes.
And do you have a larger point about pornography in general?
Well, I do.
And, you know, I didn't take it seriously until I had boys and until my boy who's now 12 was six years old.
And we went to his grandmother's birthday and she lived in Vegas and had him walk up and down the strip.
And he was asking, like, what is that sex, dad?
What is this word?
It's everywhere.
And so he went back to the hotel and just lo and behold, the protective apps that we had on his computer had just expired.
And so he said the word sex into his computer and saw a bunch of stuff that we really wish he wouldn't have seen at six years old.
And it really started me to go into the rabbit hole of what's going on.
We all looked at it.
I will be perfectly transparent in saying that it's the only addiction that I ever had myself.
I had no drinking, no drugs, nothing like that, but started at a very young age with beta tapes, you know, hidden under the couch that I stole from the local video store and would watch them on repeat over and over.
And it created an addiction that took me years, years to break.
And to understand what it does to particularly men psychologically, is sex no longer becomes an exchange, an energetic exchange between two people.
It becomes a very visual thing.
So the men are oftentimes in their head picturing things that they've seen.
And this can, as you can imagine, can really harm the relationship that you're trying to have, sexual relationship with the person that you're with.
And so I started to dig into this really deeply.
I'm still in the middle of the investigation, but what I've learned is that it is so effective that it's been used as a weapon of war and it's being used as a weapon of war.
In 2002, the IDF was caught pumping hardcore pornography into Gaza, taking over, literally taking over their three stations that they had.
And when they were asked why, they said because it unlocks a particular lust in the young men and they become sexual predators and it prohibits them or it lessens the possibility of them ever having a family and multiplying.
They admitted that.
And so when you look at it and you see how much this is spread in the United States and that it's one of the only things that's free and that it gets harder and harder core.
It's extreme.
And when you look at really the cognitive damage that it does to our neurology, particularly of developing minds, you understand that it is a weapon of war.
It's a psychological weapon of war.
And there are now movements all over the internet of young men trying to beat it because it's one of the hardest habits.
They say it's as tough as heroin or fentanyl or any of that.
Because it taps into a primal part of our primal design.
And we are created.
The reason sex is so attractive is because it's been instilled in us to procreate, to create life.
And so there's pheromones, there are things that happen that are to keep us always interested in the opposite sex and creating life.
And I think that's one of our purposes on this planet.
And so drawing from that, weaponizing that primal instinct is what they've done.
And now we have these couple of generations of young boys, they're called incels, whatever you want to call them.
And they don't know how to relate to women, not only because all the social rules, they don't know what's safe to say or do.
They don't know if they're supposed to ask a girl out, if they're supposed to open the door, or is that insulting?
They don't know what to do.
So they're scared about that.
But there are young men that are actually in juvenile systems right now because when they had their first sexual encounter, they choked the female because they thought, that's what you do.
Everything I've seen is there's, that's what you don't do that.
No, that's actually kind of a depraved expansion of sexual addiction.
And so I would love to come back sometime when I really dig into this research because I'm gathering the information right now.
I actually had Epoch Times reach out to me wanting to do a full expose on this.
So I'm working on that right now.
But it's more serious than people know, and it's really damaging the American family and relationships between men and women.
It's really doing great damage.
And so that has been what's it's it's it's been I think the godfather of porn.
Let me see if I can find this really quick here.
The godfather of porn said in the 1970s, he said, he said, yeah, here we go.
Al Goldstein, the publisher of Screw Magazine said, is there a deeper reason beyond the mere financial as to why Jews in particular have become involved in porn?
The only reason that Jews are in pornography is that we think Christ sucks.
Catholicism sucks.
Pornography thus becomes a way of defiling Christian culture.
And as it penetrates to the very heart of the American mainstream, its subversive character becomes more changed, extending that the subversive thesis.
It is a middle finger to the entire WASP establishment.
And so, I mean, that's just one man.
I'm not making any allegations about who's behind this or anything like that, but it's interesting that the man that they called the Godfather of porn cites this as his reason.
At the time, people were noticing that the semi-innocent nude magazines, nothing wrong with nudity, of course, were born nude.
But they were all, there was a push for all of them to become hardcore, which, you know, Playboy start off as just, you know, very simple, no spread legs, none of that.
And slowly but surely, it was moving in another direction.
And then on comes, you know, Penthouse and all the other magazines that took it to the next level.
And so it's done more damage to our collective psyche on how to actually create family and to be with each other and to create a responsible home life.
I know there's a lot of young men and a lot of young women.
A short story is my wife and I ran a school for a little while, and it was an eight-year-old girl who introduced the boys of this school to pornography.
And it was shocking to us because we didn't think it would come from that direction.
Never Met The Man00:07:57
And so it's something for parents to be very, very aware of.
I'll just say that.
Okay.
All right.
Well, Mickey, I appreciate you making time with us.
Everybody, do you want to point someone towards a website or anything?
Absolutely.
Yeah, I have a new website, mickeywillis.com.
That's M-I-K-K-I, MickeyWillis.com.
And I have a new membership portal called Decode the Narrative, where we do calls and interviews every Thursday night to go really deep into these subjects and actually interact with the community so that we can make sure that we're keeping up with the latest strain of psychological warfare that we're all facing.
Hey, this is Jimmy.
Who's this?
Jamie Boboloich, Howard Lutnick.
Ah, really?
Really?
Yes.
Commerce Secretary Lutnick, what a pleasant surprise.
How are you?
What?
I didn't do anything.
Yeah.
What do you mean?
I didn't say you did.
I'm sorry.
I've just been very defensive lately.
I don't know what's going on with me.
I probably need to see a therapist.
Oh, is this about appearing in the Epstein files?
What?
But I didn't do anything.
I never met the man.
I'm barely in those files.
We had lunch once.
I sailed to his island on a yacht.
The whole thing is a nothing, burger.
That's not what people seem to think, Mr. Secretary.
People, what people?
What do they know?
Zilch, that's what.
I am on record discussing my severing of ties with Jeffrey Epstein, who I never met in a televised interview.
Oh, really?
Yes, really, Mr. Weisenheimer.
I said in that interview that back when he and I were neighbors.
Do you were neighbors with Jeffrey Epstein?
For about 10 years, but it was a coincidence.
Yeah.
I never met the man in my life.
One time I went over there to borrow a cup of sugar or a stick of butter, and there was this massage table.
And Jimmy, there were all these candles.
And I said, oh, my.
Is that all you said?
What?
No.
I said, you have a permanent massage table in your house, your home?
And he said, yes.
And then leaned in and implied that these massages were actually prostitutionings.
And I said, well, I never want to meet this man.
And my wife and I had a conversation that I was never to go over there again for the first time.
I wasn't to even meet him.
And I said, sweetheart, I can't imagine wanting to go over there next door and glean more information about the pleasures that this enigmatic man might be bestowing on friends and colleagues so liberally.
No way.
So you never met him?
I only said that like a thousand times.
Yeah, you and your wife had a conversation and arrived at this agreement together.
Yes, she took the initiative.
I will give her that credit because she saw that he was a man that I shouldn't meet.
And I agreed instantly that I shouldn't meet him.
I've never met the man in my life.
I only know him from the news.
And when was that?
2005.
I remember very vividly because that pussycat doll song, Don't You Wish Your Girlfriend Was Hot Like Me, was topping the charts and I was obsessed with that song.
Just those young shiksa sluts shaking it on camera.
How dare they?
But according to the Epstein files that were just released, you continue to have dealings with Epstein all the way up until 2018, long after he was a convicted sex offender.
He was?
Oh, dear.
As you yourself said, you took your yacht to Epstein's island to visit with him, but you've never met him.
Yes, I told you.
I took my yacht to his island to have lunch, but he wasn't home.
There must have been a miscommunication.
So I don't know where he was.
So I didn't meet him.
It was scheduled, like the file said, but it didn't happen.
So I couldn't have met him or gotten a special massage from Bambi and Thumper.
That would have been impossible.
What did you do?
I don't know.
We looked at his island and then we sailed back to our island.
That's life in the islands, sailing around in yachts.
And besides, I was there with my family, my children.
What sort of terrible thing could have happened with children there?
One release document showed you two were even business partners.
Jimmy, please, come on.
Are you personally acquainted with everyone you're in business with?
Yes, of course.
What are you running a peanut stand?
Look, I've never met this man, this Epstein or whatever.
I didn't do anything.
What?
Man, are you really laying it on thick here?
I have no idea what you're talking about.
I'm not laying on anything, thick or thin.
No layers of anything.
I'm innocent.
High-level politicians in the UK are getting fired over this scandal, and no one here is being held accountable.
Strange.
I know.
That really is so strange.
Yeah.
I mean, like I said, I didn't do anything.
I never met the man.
But all these other perverts are just getting away with it.
I have no idea why.
Not really, not really.
Not really, not really.
Do you have any advice for anyone who did commit crimes with Jeffrey Epstein?
I can't see why I would, but if you twisted my arm, I'd just say lie over and over again until it blows over.
Because no one's gonna do anything, and it will be like nothing ever happened.
I mean, if I were to take a guess, I see.
Oh, and say hello to Tiffany and Roxy for me.
Wait, what?
Who are they?
I don't know.
I've never met them.
I've never done anything ever.
I've never met anyone.
I just don't meet people, you know.
Ask me.
Name someone.
Anyone.
I won't know them, I assure you.
I have to say, Mr. Secretary, your act has to be the worst of anyone's.
That's because it doesn't have to be good.
That's the beauty of this whole thing.
You really disgust me, sir.
Why?
Okay, that's enough.
We gotta go, Commerce Secretary Luttnick, everybody.
Thank you, Commerce Secretary.
Toodaloo.
Toodaloo.
Hey, why do you laugh like a maniac when you're standing behind Trump and someone brings up the Epstein files?
I don't know.
I get nervous.
Okay.
Just do a nervous laugh.
It seems very creepy to a lot of people.
Seems out of place.
I don't know why.
