1. Editor's Note

          On October 7th, 2016, Wikileaks released the John Podesta e-mails. A month later, independent researchers began to suspect that pedophile code words had been used between Podesta and some of his interlocutors. Later that week, Donald Trump was elected president. The following month, on the 4th of December, Edgar Maddison Welch entered Comet Ping Pong Pizza in Washington, D.C. with an AR-15, evidently suspecting that children were being held captive on the property.
          Key people in the new administration are being investigated for their possible ties with Russia. The Wikileaks of the John Podesta emails, as well as two separate leaks of Democratic National Committee e-mails, have aroused suspicion that Russian agents were involvement in leaking or hacking these emails, spreading them illegally, or even hacking or tampering with the 2016 U.S. presidential election results. Trump and figures in his administration are widely suspected of colluding with figures in the Russian political and/or business world to unduly influence that election, or perhaps even rig it.

          The more stories and accusations we see about predatory sexual behavior, especially in politics, the more it may help to clarify connections between predators whom we may not have identified as predators until recently. That is why I waited until November 2017 to first publish this information -sort of as a way to "let the dust settle" - to wait until I could see things more clearly.
          My hope is that this article may serve as an introduction to the Pizzagate conspiracy theory for beginners, and a summary of what Pizzagate researchers think is going on here; not necessarily a summary of irrefutable facts. I intend to demonstrate that it's within the realm of possibility that:

         1) There is no evidence that Russia hacked the results of, nor directly rigged, the 2016 election. (This is not to say, however, that no U.S.-Russian business deals influenced the election, nor that Russia didn't use its state owned media network RussiaToday to entertain some views sympathetic to Donald Trump and critical of Hillary Clinton.)
          2) The idea that Russia rigged the election, and mainstream media's false and sympathetic reporting on Pizzagate, have served as two convenient distractions from what Pizzagate researchers actually think is going on;
          3) There is no evidence that supports mainstream media's claims that James Alefantis and Comet Ping Pong Pizza were targeted randomly;
          4) There is no evidence that the leaks of the Hillary Clinton e-mails, the two separate D.N.C. e-mail leaks, and the Podesta e-mails had anything to do with each other;
          5) There is no evidence that any of those sets of e-mails were hacked, rather than being merely leaked; and
          6) When it comes to undue influence on American elections, or at least undue influence on our energy deals, we ought to consider looking at agents in the Ukraine, in addition to persons of interest from Russia.

          Due to the disturbing nature of the following subject matter, the seriousness of the potential charges at hand, and the difficulty involved in substantiating the claims and evidence herein, I urge readers to research and verify this information independently and carefully for themselves, and to develop their own opinions about how well I and other researchers have presented the facts. I have attempted to include only the basic level of speculation I felt was necessary to "fill in the blanks" when that which we know for sure isn't enough to make sense of things.

2. Background Information

Billionaire financier and child sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein.
In 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty to soliciting an underage girl for prostitution
by a state court in Florida as part of a plea bargain.

          A bit of background information, indirectly related to Pizzagate:

          First off, billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein, a known associate of former president Bill Clinton, served 13 months in prison for soliciting an underage girl for prostitution. Epstein was rumored to use his private plane, dubbed the "Lolita Express", to fly V.I.P.s to Little Saint James in the U.S. Virgin Islands, nicknamed "Orgy Island".
          Epstein’s book of contacts, dubbed his "black book", was leaked online by his former employee Alfredo Rodriguez. Reportedly, Rodriguez was Epstein's butler, and even cleaned Epstein's sex toys. According to Rodriguez, he stole Epstein's black book, and leaked its contents. Shortly thereafter, he died at the age of 60 under suspicious circumstances. Bill Clinton appeared in flight logs 26 times between 2001 and 2003. he is supposedly in the book under a pseudonym (possibly using the surname "Bank" or "Banks").
          Others in the book include Donald Trump, Ivana and Ivanka, Prince Andrew, Ehud Barak, Ted Kennedy, Alec Baldwin, David Koch, Alan Dershowitz, and many other household names; politicians, royalty, and actors included. Even Kevin Spacey, whose Kevin Spacey Foundation has come under suspicion of trying to lure young actors into the company of child predators in the industry. A 90-page redacted document, purportedly Epstein's black book, has been published on Gawker.com.

          Now on to the issue of Pizzagate, directly.

Edgar Maddison Welch is arrested outside

Comet Ping Pong in Washington, D.C.,

on December 4th, 2016

         The restaurant Comet Ping Pong Pizza was held at AR-15 gunpoint by Edgar Maddison Welch on December 4th, 2016. The restaurant's owner James Alefantis once dated David Brock, the head of liberal media outlet Media Matters. Brock switched sides from Republican to Democrat in the course of writing a book which he hoped would expose Bill and Hillary Clinton. He became a Democrat, and after dating Alefantis, Brock blackmailed him for nearly a million dollars, for some unknown reason.

          The Clintons have ties to Laura Silsby, who got time served for “irregular air travel” after having charges dropped for attempted kidnapping of 33 Haitian children. Silsby claims that her organization, the New Life Children's Refuge, was trying to convert a hotel into an orphanage for the children. Pizzagate researchers have noted that the charges against her were dropped after Bill Clinton visited Haiti.

          Other prominent Democratic politicians recently charged with or suspected of child sex trafficking include New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez, and Obama's former ambassador to Belgium Howard Gutman. Hillary Clinton also defended the man who brutally raped then 12-year-old Kathy Shelton, and some have alleged that Clinton played an inappropriate role in the suppression of a key piece of evidence in that case. In 2011, it came out that New York Congressman Anthony Weiner, the husband of Clinton aide Huma Abedin, had sent sexually explicit texts to a teenage girl.

          The Pizzagate conspiracy seems to implicate mostly Democrats, but allegations of sex crimes against children should not be taken any less seriously when Republicans or members of other parties are suspected of them. If any formal warrants or charges are issued against Roy Moore for doing what he's accused of, or against Donald Trump for flying on the Lolita Express, then they should have their days in court just like everybody else.

3. Introduction to Pizzagate

          Some of the best sources for information about Pizzagate include the hacker QAnon (who might not even be just one person), video researcher Dean Fougere (who goes by several pseudonyms on YouTube, and has released a three-part, seven-hour documentary on Pizzagate), and Ben Swann’s “Fact Check” video primer on the topic.

          Communities at www.voat.com, and Facebook groups such as "#Pedogate & The NWO Agenda" (as well as many other Facebook groups) study the topic, and there are entire YouTube channels dedicated to Pizzagate, and "Pedogate", which is short-hand for possible wider, international child sex trafficking rings which may not directly pertain to James Alefantis, John Podesta, and related people and matters. The content of many of these groups and message boards, however, should be taken with a grain of salt, because they often advance prejudicial narratives. In my opinion, some of the least productive, most harmful "contributions" to Pizzagate and Pedogate research, are researchers who try to insist that all pedophilia or child sex trafficking should be blamed strictly on either Catholics, Jews, Muslims, homosexuals, transsexuals, or other groups.

          So too should we be wary of information that comes from Alex Jones, the Texas radio and internet host. Although Jones calls attention to possible child sex trafficking by elites, he has ceased reporting on Pizzagate (to the delight of John Podesta, who, from time to time, boastfully tweets and re-tweets a video in which Jones retracted most of his reporting on Pizzagate). Jones stated that he removed two of three Pizzagate-related video reports after being “asked” by James Alefantis to do so. It's possible that Jones was really threatened into doing this, as BigFish (the supposed hacker of Comet Ping Pong's website) claims Alefantis did to him. However, in a video in which Jones explains why he removed several reports on Pizzagate, he also re-affirmed his belief that international sex trafficking rings do exist, and that governments are involved in covering them up. On the other hand, Jones's ex-wife Kelly says he cares more about fancy watches, and displaying his wealth to attract women, than following through in facing down the threat he believes is posed by Child Protective Services agencies across the nation.

          The Pizzagate conspiracy theory is the theory that John Podesta and James Alefantis use pizza, as part of a system of code words and symbols, to communicate covertly about pedophilia and child sex trafficking. In mainstream reports about Edgar M. Welch holding up Comet Ping Pong, there was conjecture that Welch was mentally ill, and that he chose Comet Ping Pong – as opposed to any other pizza restaurant – completely at random. However, that wouldn't explain why Welch traveled from North Carolina to Washington, D.C., instead of shooting up his local pizza restaurant in North Carolina.

          It's clear to most independent researchers that the targeting of Comet Ping Pong Pizza wasn’t a random choice solely based on its being a pizza restaurant. Wikileaks revealed that Comet's owner James Alefantis emailed John Podesta in 2008 and 2016, if not other times as well. Additionally, Besta Pizza, which sits two doors down from Comet, changed its logo shortly after internet researchers pointed out that its spiral triangle is code for homosexual pedophilia, known to the F.B.I.. “Besta”, additionally, is Portuguese for “beast”, which some researchers suspect could be an allusion to the Devil.

4. John and Tony Podesta

          Former Hillary Clinton campaign manager John Podesta's brother Tony has known convicted serial child molester and former U.S. Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert for 50 years. Tony Podesra has also been pictured with James Alefantis.

Former Hillary Clinton campaign chairman

John Podesta

          When John and Tony Podesta's mother Mary Kokoris-Podesta died in March 2007, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that she had adopted 25 children during her lifetime, in addition to her two biological sons, John and Tony. Pizzagate researchers suspect that artist Alex Podesta (who photographs men dressed as white rabbits) and Brian Podesta (who works at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children), are either related by blood to John and Tony, or else were adopted. Researchers have claimed that discussion pages about Brian Podesta were shut down shortly after they came into existence.

          In early December 2016, about a month after Wikileaks released John Podesta's emails on October 7th, users of 4chan and Reddit began to suspect that John Podesta had likely used pedophile code, known to UrbanDictionary, to communicate to people, including his associates Herbert Sandler, Steve Elmendorf, Todd D. Stern, and Jim Steyer (the brother of Democratic bundler Tom Steyer, who is now spearheading a petitioning campaign to impeach President Trump).
          The contents of the e-mail between Stern and Podesta contain a discussion about John Podesta's hot dog stand in Hawaii. Considering there's absolutely no evidence that Podesta owns such a hot dog stand, it's possible the usage of the term hot dog could have been pedophile code for young boys. The e-mail between Elmendorf and Podesta indicates that Elmendorf is aware that while corresponding with Podesta, not all words used might mean what they appear to mean.
          Shortly after Wikileaks released John Podesta's e-mails in early October 2016, users on Reddit and 4chan began to make posts to message boards discussing and researching the topic. In December 2016, several users posted sets of terms which they said they knew to be pedophile code, backing up their hypotheses with links to UrbanDictionary.com and other sources. Reddit and 4chan users suspect that pizza and walnuts are probably code for vaginas, while pasta and hot dogs refer to penises. Also, that walnut could possibly refer to a person of color, that sauce likely refers to orgies, and that Podesta's use of the word domino in an e-mail about a handkerchief may refer to sexual domination. Additionally (although this is not directly relevant to Pizzagate) ice cream is code for male prostitutes.
          As an example: in an e-mail from September 2014, Herbert Sandler's wife Susan wrote to John Podesta, informing him that her realtor had found a handkerchief on the kitchen island of a field house, asking if it belonged to him. She wrote that she thought it looked like it had a "map that seems pizza-related". According to a 4chan user, "map" is code for "semen", so it's possible that the email was referring to a handkerchief with a semen stain on it; with "pizza-related" referring to who the handkerchief owner would have been having sex with (according to the code): an underage girl.
          It's possible that the Podestas are using the fact of their Italian heritage, and the fact of John's being an avid cook, to disguise their love for pizza and pasta, and their use of pedophile code words, as nothing out of the ordinary.



5. Strange Tastes in Art
          The Podestas, James Alefantis, and their associates share a taste for disturbing art that borders on the sexually explicit, and even demonic.

          An artist named Arrington de Dionyso painted murals that were once on display at Comet, but in a mid-December 2016 article for Medium.com, the painter wrote that he had become the victim of hatred and death threats from the alt-right. De Dionyso's murals depict headless people, but the paintings are not graphic, nor do they depict sex, nor children. De Dionyso's work is certainly among the least disturbing among the art tastes of Alefantis and the Podestas.
     That's whh it is unfortunate that it was de Dionyso's art which was the one that Pizzagate researchers looked into first, rather than the works of Maria Marshall, Patricia Piccinini, Julie Roberts, Katy Grannan, Louise Borgeois, and Biljana Djurdjevic. That's because their paintings and photographs often depict either children in their underwear, Satanic or occult images, or other disturbing images, and each of them is admired by one or both of the Podestas. None of that, apparently, can be said about Dionyso's work.

Multimedia artist Marina Abramovic

          Another artist is Marina Abramovic, a visual and performance artist whose works feature macabre themes. Abramovic is known for, among other things, sitting in a museum for hours and staring at whoever sits in front of her; letting people do whatever they want to her with objects that included scissors and a gun; and cutting a cake that looks like a human corpse at a Museum of Modern Art gala. An article from Washington Magazine, and the archive on Steemit.com thawhich preserved Alefantis's JimmyComet Instagram page, show that Alefantis is an Abramovic fan.

          A bizarre photograph of Podesta exists, in which the number “14” and a fish have been drawn onto his palms. The photograph shows that there is a bandage on his finger, and Pizzagate researchers believe that he cut himself in accordance with the instructions from and for one of Abramovic's “art pieces”. The instructions read, in part: "With a sharp knife, cut deeply into the middle finger of your left hand. Eat the pain." Abramovic reportedly wrote those words in pig's blood, and she has been known to mix bodily fluids together for use in writing and painting. Some have noted the similarities between this technique and a practice called "Spirit Cooking". Abramovic has reportedly spoken about the differences between occult acts performed as part of art, versus occult acts performed at home outside the context of art.
          In one Wikileaks e-mail, dated June 2015, Abramovic asks Tony Podesta whether he and John would be able to attend a "Spirit Cooking dinner party at my place" on July 9th of that year. Subsequent emails show John Podesta and Marina Abramovic personally corresponding with each other about that dinner, as well as a Hillary Clinton event around that time.

6. James Alefantis

Comet Ping Pong Pizza

owner James Alefantis

          James Alefantis’s friends and business associates include a German co-owner of a pizza restaurant location in Germany, a couple of pig farmers in Virginia, and a bunch of creepy rock bands, who, for some reason, perform shows at Comet Ping Pong, for all ages, sometimes in the middle of the day, sometimes later than a child should be out. These bands perform for all ages, yet they have names like Sex Stains, the Coathangers, Thee Lolitas, and other inappropriate names.

          One vocalist named Amanda Kleinman, stage name “Majestic Ape” of the band Heavy Breathing, was recorded joking about Jared Fogle’s pedophilia, saying “we all have our preferences”, and complaining about babies making noise. On Halloween 2015, a musician named Miss Summer Camp was seen on Instagram, lying in the floor, looking seductively into the camera, apparently covered in blood, while in the background stood a small cage rested on top of a Ping-Pong table. Ping-Pong is part of Alefantis’s restaurant’s name, and it may also be sexual slang. Many of these bands followed JimmyComet on Instagram.

          Alefantis’s former “JimmyComet” Instagram page was taken down, but not before being preserved on Steemit. Many of the images depict young children, including, several times, one apparently named Caris. Alefantis commented on some of the pictures of her with "#carisjames". She is supposedly Alefantis’s goddaughter. It's possible that if Caris is the girl's name, then James is her middle name, but it's more likely that Alefantis's hash-tag meant to refer to the girl and himself; i.e., Caris and James. Pizzagate researchers found the girl's mother's Instagram account, and confirmed that the girl's name is Caris Cummings, that she has a sister named Mae, and that their parents are Scott Cummings and C.C. Woolman.

          One image shows the girl with her hands taped to a table, with a man (possibly Alefantis) standing behind her; Alefantis later told Megyn Kelly that the girl's sister taped her hands to the table. Some people researching Pizzagate say that they would like to see evidence that the girl is still alive after the year 2015, when she was last pictured on Alefantis's Instagram.
          Despite all the evidence that Caris is indeed the girl's name, some researchers suspect that the name Caris is a reference to the muscle relaxing drug carisoprodol. Pizzagate researchers have additionally noted another possible drug reference, this time to oxycontin (a/k/a “oysters”), in an ad for Buck's Fishing and Camping. Another theory about Caris is that she may be the same girl as a girl who was depicted on the Tumblr.com blog PizzaBrains, wearing a T-shirt that says "pizza slut" on it (though I have not personally seen any compelling evidence that they are the same person).

          Many of Alefantis's Instagram followers, including the bands, make sexual posts, even in reference to the restaurant (“cum on down”, etc.), when it’s supposed to be a family restaurant. Several former Comet employees have stated that employees were “wild”, and one even claimed to have seen Alefantis “hooking up” with a sixteen-year-old boy in the kitchen of the family restaurant. 

          It's hard not to question what's going on here, given that Alefantis seems to be taking pictures of toddlers one moment, possibly having sex with a teenage boy the next, all during work hours, in a pizza restaurant for families, where adult musicians with creepy band names play shows for all ages, and his employees are going wild hooking up with each other.

          Edgar Maddison Welch entered Comet Pizza on December 4th, 2016, nearly two months after Wikileaks released the John Podesta's e-mails. Welch, an actor who has an IMDB.com page, recorded a video beforehand, saying goodbye to his family. He reportedly believes that Hillary Clinton was directly involved in child trafficking, suspected that children were being held captive in Comet's basement, and entered armed so he could check things out.

          Pizzagate skeptics have pointed to Welch's belief that Comet Ping Pong has a basement, as a possible flaw in the narrative. That's because after December 2016, Alefantis has claimed that Comet does not have a basement. However, in April 2015, in an interview with Metro Weekly magazine, Alefantis said that it does, and that the basement is used to store organic tomatoes for the restaurant.

          Whether Comet Ping Pong has a basement or not, Alefantis owns eleven other properties, one of which is Buck's Fishing and Camping, which has a basement. Another one is a property called Pegasus, which underwent construction within the last several years. Pizzagate researchers have noted some suspicious things about the construction, and about Pegasus's surroundings.

          Although there are some questions about whether the shooter fired through the wall, and whether he fired in a downward direction, Alefantis agrees with numerous reports that the shooter Edgar Maddison Welch fired one shot from his AR-15, and hit a closet. Welch said he was trying to shoot the lock open, because it was a computer closet, and housed servers which he suspected of hosting child pornography.

          The now retooled Comet Ping Pong website once had an encrypted “protected” section. A hacker, calling himself BigFish on Twitter, claims to have gotten into the site, and claims that it is child porn: including images and videos. In a YouTube interview with Dean Fougere (also known as Plato Smith and Titus Frost on YouTube), BigFish said that after he saw the contents, he immediately reported it - in great detail, with additional information - to D.C. police.

          BigFish provided the names of five officers who he either spoke to or was told was assigned to the case; Marcus Stevens, Jeremiah Johnson, Chanel Dickerson, Peter Newsham, and Daniel H. Godin. BigFish suspects that the DC police may have passed the investigation off to federal or even international authorities, since the site connects to 9 servers worldwide, one in Germany. Curiously, Alefantis co-owns a ping-pong-themed restaurant in Germany called Dr. Pong's, which suspiciously sells “table tennis equipment” as its most expensive item. The other co-owner of Dr. Pong's restaurant is named Oliver Miller.
          There are numerous videos, photos, and discussion threads about Alefantis’s 12 properties throughout DC, how half of them are right over DC tunnel systems, and about the suspicious construction and industrial refrigerators seen on Alefantis’s Instagram.

          Alefantis and Podesta have pig farming in common; Alefantis’s friends Kent Ozkum and Will Morrow own Whitmore pig farm, and James has visited. A man calling himself Matthew Yglesias, who claims to be John Podesta’s former employee, wrote that Podesta has experience killing pigs, in a July 2009 article entitled "Killer of Pigs" on InternetFoodAssociation.WordPress.com. Serial killer Robert Pickton disposed of his victims by feeding them to pigs; some suspect this is what John Podesta and Alefantis’s friends are up to.

7. Madeleine McCann

          Numerous British news sources have published police sketches of someone who is either a person of interest or a witness in the 2007 disappearance of Madeleine McCann, Police say the two sketches are of the same person, and have not supplied this person's name. But many Pizzagate researchers find it hard to deny that the sketches look like John and Tony Podesta, and hard to deny that brothers can look so much alike that they're mistaken for the same person.

          Still, the police say the suspect was some 20 years or more younger than the Podestas. But if both sketches are of the same person, then why release two sketches? They aren't even from different views; no profile pictures, just mug shots looking straight forward. Yet they look like completely different people. If this person was a witness, aren't we to presume that the police spoke to him and got his name? Why don't we know the name of this person of interest?

Two sketches of a person of interest

in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann;

John Podesta (left) and Tony Podesta (right)

          John Podesta visited Portugal the year McCann went missing; however, that happened several months after the girl's disappearance. In June 2016, the Daily Mail reported that the now deceased former member of British parliament Clement Freud was vacationing just a mile or so away from the McCanns on the day of the disappearance, and befriended Gerry and Kate, the girl's parents, while they searched for their missing daughter. M.P. Freud was exposed as a child molester after his death.

          The Wikileaks of John Podesta’s emails shows nothing before the day after she disappeared. Incidentally, Portuguese is the language in which “beast” is spelled and pronounced the same as the “Besta” in Besta Pizza, Alefantis's neighbor.

8. The Leiter-Luzzatto Family

David J. Leiter and his wife Tamera Stanton Luzzatto

          On October 8^th, 2015, Tamera Stanton Luzzatto emailed about a dozen people, including John Podesta and his wife, with the help of her assistant Trudy. The e-mail was about how three girls age 6 to 12 would be in a heated pool, at Luzzatto's vacation home, for some sort of unspecified “entertainment”. At that time, Luzzatto worked at the Pew Charitable Trusts. From 2001 to 2009, she worked as then Senator Hillary Clinton's chief of staff.

          Pizzagate researchers discovered that Tamera Luzzatto managed a blog called Evie’s Crib, which was active 5-7 years ago but which has been taken down. It had pictures of her with three girls, and another girl cousin, an infant. I and others suspect that this woman was using her 4 granddaughters as unwilling “cam-girls” that she would violate on screen for money.

          The mother of the three sisters (Emerson, Ruby, and Maeve) is Alexandra Huntingdon Tydings. Her husband is Ben Luzzatto, Tamera Luzzatto's son from her first marriage (to Francis Luzzatto, who died in 1999). Tydings is an actress, writer, director, filmmaker, singer, bassist, dancer, and activist. Her filmmaking focuses on women's rights and reproductive rights.

          It's entirely a matter of speculation as to whether Alexandra Tydings would have known about what her mother-in-law might have been doing while Emerson, Ruby, Maeve, and another girl named Evie or Evelyn (who is apparently the girls' cousin), were in their grandmother's custody.

9. The Ukrainian Connection

          Tamera Luzzatto’s second and current husband is David J. Leiter, a former lobbyist for Burisma oil company, headquartered in the Ukraine. Tony Podesta, Paul Manafort, and Joe Biden’s son Hunter also have ties to energy deals and other important deals in the Ukraine. You may remember former vice president Joe Biden from pinching a young girl’s nipple live on C-SPAN. 

Joe Biden gropes the young niece of
Steve Daines, Republican Senator from Montana,

at a congressional photo session

          When freshmen congressmen get sworn in, Biden finds any opportunity to grope their wives and daughters. Biden has been filmed having his hand swatted away by Jeff Sessions while reaching for a young Asian-American girl's hair to caress. Biden pulls girls in close to him for photographs, and has been known to tell their fathers this joke: “That's a pretty daughter, I hope you've got a tall fence at home." In one telling, just the punch-line, followed by "a tall fence and a big dog". There even exists a photograph from the 1970s which shows a young Biden staring at the chest of a girl who looks about ten years old.

          There is no solid evidence that the Hillary Clinton e-mail leaks, the D.N.C. leaks, and the Podesta leaks had anything to do with one another. Additionally, there is no evidence that any of those sets of e-mails were hacked through illegal means, rather than simply being leaked (that is, released to the internet-using public, after being accessed without hacking, whether that occurred legally or illegally).

         Democratic Party leaders want people to think that both are hacks, and that the same people hacked both Podesta and the D.N.C., because they want people to think something illegal happened. And if most people think that the Podesta leaks and the two D.N.C. leaks are related, then they'll be more likely to think that 1) if something illegal happened in one of the leaks, then they all must have been illegal, and that 2) if Russia has to do with any of the leaks, then they all must be related to Russia.

          But D.N.C. employee Seth Rich leaked files, he didn’t hack them. And nobody hacked John Podesta. Someone leaked his emails one of the (at least) two times since the Wikileaks emails began (in May 2007) that he lost his phone. It was probably one of his aides, several of whom had access to his gmail login information.

          The Democrats have gone much harder against Russia than the Republicans have lately. Hillary compared Putin to Hitler, by comparing Russia's annexation Crimea to Hitler's call for lebensraum (living space). Trump, on the other hand (aside from a brief scuffle with Russia over Syria), notably said during the election that he'd like to be friends with Russia again.

          The Clinton team, probably a fair bit more than the people around Trump, care about Ukraine becoming energy-independent of Russia, so that it can become politically independent of Russia as well. And both major U.S. political parties seem to believe that that requires deals where the U.S. helps Ukraine get an edge on energy.

          Leiter left Burisma before his wife e-mailed Podesta about her granddaughters, but the fact of his lobbying on behalf of Ukrainian energy interests, and the fact that Tony Podesta and Paul Manafort have interests in the same exact resource and country, might have had something to do with why those girls were in that heated pool. Again, they were there “for entertainment” according to Tamera Luzzatto, the email was sent to numerous people, and John Podesta was CC’d on the email, asking him to show up if he can make it.
          Did energy lobbyist David J. Leiter pimp out his granddaughters to either or both of the Podestas? If so, did he do it to seal an energy deal with politicians or businessmen in the Ukraine? We may never know.

10. Conclusion: Time-Traveling Trump

          A video recently surfaced, posing the question: Is Donald Trump a time-traveler? The video explains that in June 2011, when the news broke about Anthony Weiner sending sexually explicit photographs to a teenage girl, Piers Morgan conducted a telephone interview with Donald Trump to get his thoughts on the subject. Trump referred to “Pizzagate”, saying that he had heard about Anthony Weiner and Pizzagate at the same time, presumably that day.

          To anyone somewhat familiar with Pizzagate, it should unimaginable that someone could have used the word “Pizzagate” prior to November 2016, when the Podesta Wikileaks came out. However, the trained Pizzagate researcher will remember tweets sent by Andrew Breitbart on February 4^th, 2011 – four months before Trump's interview with Piers Morgan – saying “how prog guru John Podesta isn't household name as world-class underage sex slave op cover-upper defending unspeakable dregs escapes me.”

Andrew Breitbart tweeted this message in February 2011:

more than a year before his death,

and nearly six years before most of the public

ever heard of the Pizzagate conspiracy.

          Trump must have found out about Pizzagate some time between February and June 2011; perhaps he was following Breitbart. Andrew Breitbart, in case you don't remember, founded libertarian-conservative news source Breitbart.com, along with a man named Mike Flynn (no relation to the general).
          Flynn died in 2016 of a heart attack, four years after Breitbart died of the same cause. Although Breitbart did have a persistent heart condition, just a month before he died, he said in a tweet that it might not be long before he is murdered and his death attributed to a heart attack. Additionally, Breitbart's coroner Michael Cormier died of arsenic poisoning, and Breitbart neighbor Christopher Lasseter was nowhere to be found several days after witnessing Breitbart collapse while jogging.

          All of this cannot just be a coincidence.
