The Frontier

Kiriakou identifies the MEK (Mujahedin-e-Khalq) as a "quasi-communist cult" that engaged in anti-American terrorism in the 1970s and later paid millions to Washington lobbyists to be removed from the terrorism list in 2009.

Kiriakou and Tucker Carlson question why investigations into assassination attempts against former President Trump were halted, attributing this lack of action to either presidential weakness or deeper systemic issues preventing appropriate government investigation.

Kiriakou is pessimistic about the US government returning to its original purpose, citing the politicization of the CIA, where 51 senior intelligence officers allegedly lied about the Hunter Biden laptop.

Federal fraud charges accuse the SPLC of manufacturing extremism by paying $3 million to informants in hate groups between 2014-2023. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche stated the SPLC used fictitious entities and money laundering to hide these payments.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche linked the SPLC to funding a leader of the 2017 Charlottesville "Unite the Right" protest. Adam Curry suggests this was a "precursor" to influencing President Trump's political narrative.

Speaker 2 asserts that the British Broadcasting Corporation enabled Jimmy Savile's abuse of hundreds of children and adults for nearly half a century by allowing him onto their property. The Dame Janet Smith Review identified a BBC culture of fear where reporting a star's abuse would end careers.

Margaret Thatcher consistently advocated for Jimmy Savile's knighthood, with her private secretary Nigel Wicks expressing "disappointment" to the Honors Committee in 1986 over delays. A 1982 cartoon in The Sun depicted Thatcher offering Savile a knighthood for political favors.

In 1988, Jimmy Savile was appointed to run a task force at Broadmoor Psychiatric Hospital after its board's suspension. Junior Health Minister Edwina Currie rubber-stamped his union-busting plans, later conceded as potential blackmail to silence whistleblowers; Speaker 2 stresses Savile's central role in Thatcherism.

Broadmoor Psychiatric Hospital provided Jimmy Savile with a permanent apartment in the women's wing, which clinic staff deemed "bizarre and inappropriate" but "sanctioned from the top down." Allegations exist that he had victims delivered to his rooms.

Modern investigations confirmed Jimmy Savile abused patients at multiple hospitals, including Leeds General and Great Ormond Street, with his youngest known victim an eight-year-old boy. He later targeted dying hospice patients, like an 11-12-year-old boy, to prevent reports.

Jimmy Savile executed a complex institutional grooming process, fulfilling needs like fundraising to create "a debt of gratitude" from organizations. This symbolic power allowed him to operate in a "clinical vacuum," dressing like staff and grooming them to accept his legitimacy.

In 2007, a Duncroft victim's report of Jimmy Savile to Surrey police was dropped due to mishandled evidence and pressure. Savile maintained friendships with influential Yorkshire Police officers, hosting a "Friday morning club," and admitted to giving them "weirdo letters" (complaints) to make them aware, not for investigation.

Jimmy Savile died on October 29, 2011, after which investigations were no longer suppressed. By December 2012, 450 alleged victims were reported, and a 2014 Guardian article, citing the Dame Janet Smith review, revealed BBC staff "turned a blind eye" to the rape and sexual assault of up to 1,000 boys and girls in BBC facilities.

Ryan and Martaza Hussein of Dropsite News found the State Department falsely arrested Hamana Solomani Offshar (47) and Serena Hosseini (25) for alleged Soleimani ties, based on reviewed Iranian birth records and family wills.
