Connections Between Pornography and Political Donations

A couple of years ago, leaked internal documents from AIPAC

showed that the

single largest donor to the organization, the American Israel

Public Affairs Committee, number one donor was a man called Leonid

Ridvinskiy. Ridvinskiy was a Ukrainian-born

pornographer. He was the owner of OnlyFans,

one of the largest

porn sites and human exploitation sites in the world, a site that has

effectively turned thousands upon thousands of American women

into prostitutes. And according to these documents,

Ridvinskiy and his wife had pledged $11 million to

AIPAC. Huh. He later denied that, but the documents

remain.

And you had to ask yourself, and many people did ask themselves at the

time, "Why

would someone who runs a pornography site donate

this much money to a pro-war organization, neocon

organization like AIPAC? What's the connection between the two?"

Huh.

Then, of course, it was that same year, 2024,

that Miriam Adelson became one of the biggest donors to the Trump campaign,

hundreds of millions of dollars. Now, Miriam Adelson is not in the pornography

business that we know of, but very much the beneficiary of the

gambling

business. Her late husband was one of the largest proprietors of

casinos in the world, Sheldon Adelson, and she

became one of the biggest donors, and partly because of

those donations, became one of the driving forces behind

our war with

Iran, and also immensely powerful within this

administration.

In fact,

literally one of the people who picked employees at the

Department of Justice, Miriam Adelson, calling up PPO, Presidential Personnel

Office at the White House, "I want this person at DOJ," bam, that

person gets a job at DOJ. That happened.

But again, you have to ask, what is the connection

between pornography, in that case gambling,

and neo con politics?

You wouldn't thought there was one, but the connection keeps showing up.

Here, for example, is a pretty amazing and telling clip from Ben

Shapiro's recent podcast. Watch this.

In my opinion, as I said at the time, I thought the MOU was counterproductive,

that

it signaled weakness, that it actually gave credibility to the

Iranian

regime. Well now things are starting to reverse.

We have Operation Economic Outcast led by Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent.

The goal is to economically strangle the Islamic Republic so the odds have been

steadily going down about when we will actually have full traffic in

the Strait of

Hormuz according to our friends and sponsors over at Kalshi,, but they are

rising actually rather sharply recently

before April 1st, 2027 is now up to

42% before July 1st of 2027 is up to 53%.

Honestly, I think we'll probably get there before

that.

So that's a pretty amazing clip. Here's Ben Shapiro, and

if you see the whole show,

he spends a lot of it, as he always does, pushing the United States to

send more money and well more of our American soldiers

and airmen

into harm's way fighting Israel's war in Iran.

And then he kind of seamlessly moves to a pitch for Kalshi, a

gambling company with, with whom he's a partner

apparently. Not only am I excited about the war, he's

effectively saying, "You can bet on its outcome.

Here sign up now for Kalshi."

So here's Ben Shapiro using his daily lecture on

why war is good when it's fought by Americans on behalf of

a foreign country to

seamlessly pitch a gambling company.

If war wasn't good enough how about some gambling for you?

Why not pornography? Why not weed?

Here's some prescription drugs. Well, of course virtually

everybody who pushes for wars like the war in Iran or the

war in Iraq or toppling the Syrian government

or killing the leader of Libya, that group,

we call them neoconservatives almost all of them are on

board with all of these other public

policy questions every one of which has the net

effect of hurting Americans weakening people.

So what's the connection here? There clearly is one and we're just

guessing but maybe the connection is exploitation.

So the idea of the Iran War like the Iraq War before it was

we used the world's best funded military backed by the

world's most powerful economy to fight a war on behalf

of another country a tiny country that can't fight its own Wars.

In other words take the United States and use it

for our purposes to achieve something that we can't achieve ourselves

basically treat the population of the United States the three hundred and forty

million Americans who live here like livestock and just

use them.

And that's really not so different from the attitude that , I don't

know gets you to buy Only Fans or promote gambling

companies or push legalized weed or prescription drugs on the population

none of those things is good for people

and of course you know that.

You encourage your own kids to spend all day betting on their phones or

smoke more weed you probably wouldn't want your daughter an Only fans Would you?

But these aren't your kids These are other people's kids .These

are American Kids

and why do you care ? Because you can get something out of

it. So that's a worldview that most normal people

would consider repugnant-- repugnant.That's exploitation It's cruel

Its awful It reveals that you think the people from whom you're

profiting aren't fully human You don't care about them You just wanna take

something from them Most people consider that

immoral...But

increasingly there's no sanction against it In fact you're

criticized for pointing it out..but it's so obviously true

and you should know that the same people pushing

for these wars whose outcome can't possibly benefit

you Your only role is to go die in their

prosecution or pay for it

face the consequences long term bankruptcy

destruction of a generation That's your role....The

people pushing for those wars don't care about you at all

Because if they did they certainly wouldn't be steering you to gambling sites

or getting your kids to smoke more weed or convincing your daughters to join

Onlyfans......so we're just starting to notice

this because it's kind of hard to ignore.....the president's top

donor Runs a gambling empire?.Ben Shapiro shilling for

gambling?..The guy who owns Onlyfans Is APAC'S BIGGEST

DONOR Maybe THERE'S A CONNECTION HERE
