On Trump, Part I
Mentors make the man...
“Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.”
― The Book of Proverbs 25:19

After half a century in the public square, after 8 contentious years as the face of the Republican Party, there are few who have not already made up their mind about Donald Trump. Oceans of ink have been spilled opining on this man, and yet, for all of it, he largely remains an enigma.
I have spilled my fair share of ink on him myself. Like many Americans, I found his persona loathsome; yet, still hoped to see him succeed for the sake of the country. However, as a first-hand witness to the events of January 6th, I watched then President Trump promise to meet his supporters at Capitol Hill before abandoning them to the predations of the Capitol Hill PD. Whatever benefit of the doubt I once had given him went up in the same flames as our franchise that bitter January day — a fact which has only been compounded after thieves like Charles Kushner were pardoned while patriots like Jacob Lang still rot away.
At the time I could scarcely comprehend the depths of this betrayal; however, the last several years of my research has certainly demystified that day for me. In the epilogue of my series on false flags, The Frankenstein Formula, I documented a small fragment of the many public instances of Trump displaying overt hand-signs and symbols of the Mystery Religion. In my expose on Ron DeSantis’ true pandemic record, I annotated the numerous occasions where DeSantis & Trump can be seen engaging in those same Masonic grips.
Furthermore, the timeline of events I chronicled leading up to the so-called pandemic of 2020 in Warp Speed to Democide leave exceedingly little room for claims of ignorance on Trump’s behalf. This is only accentuated as he continues to take credit for the lockdown and bioweapon campaign that is already responsible for wiping out millions of Americans. At best, he was wholly unequipped for what transpired, and thus, was outplayed and outmaneuvered by the same “deep state” he had vowed to destroy: that failure alone should disqualify him from leadership.
In all honesty, I have subconsciously put off writing this series for some time; for, truly, there is little to gain at this point by doing so. It is surely not written out of any affection for the Biden clan, as I have catalogued in excruciating detail the horrific sexual crimes of both Joe and Hunter. Despite the attacks I am sure to face, I am convicted that the truth is its own reward, no matter whether it be popular or palatable. Whatever that little melodrama on CNN was last week made one thing clear: the proverbial knives have come out for Biden as Trump stands poised to be (s)elected once again.
I still sincerely believe that it is not sheer amoral pragmatism or blind idolatry that drives the widespread support we still see for Trump, although certainly there is no small share of both amongst his supporters. As our quadrennial deal with the devils in DC looms closer, this commitment to truth necessitates an unflinching examination of not only Donald Trump’s political record, but the connections and relationships that forged the man we know today.
This dark exodus begins with two of the men most responsible for what he has become: Norman Vincent Peale & Roy Marcus Cohn.
“[Norman Vincent Peale] LOVED Freemasonry, its principles and everything for which it stands.”
— Allen E. Roberts (33°), In Memoriam
Donald Trump’s pastor Norman Vincent Peale is often hailed as a paragon of positivity: in reality, he is nothing short of an ecclesiastical charlatan. We see this borne out in his pulpit: Peale knowingly watered down the Gospel in his preaching (emphasis mine):
“I’m a conservative,” he told John Sherrill of Guideposts in an interview years later, “and I will tell you exactly what I mean by that. I mean that I have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as my personal Savior. I mean that I believe my sins are forgiven by the atoning work of grace on the cross.… Now I’ll tell you something else.… I personally love and understand this way of stating the Christian gospel. But I am absolutely and thoroughly convinced that it is my mission never to use this language in trying to communicate with the audience that God has given me.”
Conservative indeed. His avowed mission to eschew Biblical terminology in favor of a more palatable modern lexicon is a clear indication of his intent to dilute and distort The Gospel. The Apostle Paul makes it clear who men such as these truly serve (emphasis mine):
For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
— Epistle to the Hebrews 1:10 KJV
This strategic obfuscation is emblematic of his broader modus operandi: to ensnare the unsuspecting faithful within the beguiling yet spiritually bankrupt ideology of positive thinking. His sermons, though ostensibly brimming with Christian virtues, are but a veneer for a more nefarious agenda.
Peale’s 1952 magnum opus, The Power of Positive Thinking, subtly peddles an insidious doctrine that veers perilously close to occultism, all whilst cloaked in the veneer of wholesome Christian teachings. It was this radical form of self-confidence and self-actualization that first drew the Trump clan to Peale (emphasis mine):
His parents, Fred and Mary, felt an immediate affinity for Peale’s teachings. On Sundays, they drove into Manhattan to worship at Marble Collegiate Church, where Peale was the head pastor. Donald and both his sisters were married there, and funeral services for both Fred and Mary took place in the main sanctuary.
“I still remember [Peale’s] sermons,” Trump told the Iowa Family Leadership Summit in July. “You could listen to him all day long. And when you left the church, you were disappointed it was over. He was the greatest guy.” A month later, in the same news conference at which Trump tossed out Univision anchor Jorge Ramos, he again referred to Peale as his pastor and said he was “one of the greatest speakers” he’d ever seen.
— Gwenda Blair, How Norman Vincent Peale Taught Donald Trump to Worship Himself
The Trumps’ allegiance to Peale, seen in the numerous weddings and funerals conducted under his pastoral auspices, underscores the enormous influence he wielded in Donald’s life. That influence must be scrutinized against the backdrop of Peale's occult affiliations and doctrinal deviations.
— Norman Vincent Peale (33°) & Donald Trump.
Norman Vincent Peale's deep entanglement with Freemasonry is a glaring testament to his occult proclivities (emphasis mine):
Brother Norman Vincent Peale became a Master Mason in Minwood Lodge No. 1062 at Brooklyn, New York in 1926 and was active in a number of Masonic bodies throughout the rest of his life. He served as Grand Chaplain of the Grand Lodge of New York from 1949-1951. He was also a member of the York and Scottish Rite bodies and the Shrine. He served as Grand Prelate for the Grand Encampment and was Imperial Grand Chaplain of the Shrine. In the Scottish Rite, he was honored by receiving his 33rd Degree in 1959 and was a recipient of the Gourgas medal for his distinguished service. He received honors from many Grand Lodges including the George Washington Distinguished Service Medal from Virginia.
— The Power of Positive Thinking: Brother Norman Vincent Peale
Peale's role as Grand Chaplain of the Grand Lodge of New York, as well as his receipt of the prestigious 33rd Degree, underscores his involvement in an organization that is categorically at odds with Christ and His Church. The accolades he garnered from various Grand Lodges are not mere honors, but indicators of his profound integration into Masonic circles.
Peale’s own words in the Masonic Scottish Rite Journal expose the depth of his familial ties to Freemasonry:
My grandfather was a Mason for 50 years, my father for 50 years, and I have been a Mason for over 60 years. This means my tie with Freemasonry extends back to 1869 when my grandfather joined the Masons.
— Norman Vincent Peale, Masonic Scottish Rite Journal, February 1993
This generational allegiance to the Mystery Religion only further cements his identity as an avowed occultist masquerading as a Christian leader. His candid admissions reveal a life steeped in Masonic ritual and philosophy — a philosophy which starkly contrasts with the purportedly Christian message he propagated.
Peale’s Masonic affiliations and his deliberate theological compromises reveal a theology that is more aligned with the teachings of the Mystery Religion than the teachings of Christ.
“You knew when you were in Cohn’s presence you were in the presence of pure EVIL.”
— Victor A. Kovner, N.Y. Lawyer & Associate of Roy Cohn
Trump’s other mentor, Roy Cohn, remains a looming figure within American politics.
Cohn’s introduction to the underworld was via Lewis Rosenstiel, although the details of their initial meeting remains clouded. It is most probable that Albert Cohn, Roy’s father and a prominent judge in New York Democrat circles, facilitated the connection. Cohn’s connection to the Mystery Religion began through his induction into the exclusively Jewish branch of Freemasonry — B’nai B’rith:
Cohn’s influential father, Albert Cohn, was the long-time president of B’nai B’rith’s powerful New England-New York chapter and Roy Cohn himself was a member of B’nai B’rith’s Banking and Finance Lodge.
— Whitney Webb, Mega Group, Maxwells and Mossad: The Spy Story at the Heart of the Jeffrey Epstein Scandal
This political network had known ties to organized criminal outfits, including associates of Meyer Lansky. (I have briefly detailed Lansky’s role in the cryptocracy in Crafting A Cartel, Part II.)
These connections undoubtedly played a crucial role in Cohn’s selection for the high-profile trial of Soviet spies Ethel and Julius Rosenberg. Cohn’s fervent anti-communism endeared him to J. Edgar Hoover, the powerful FBI Director and closeted transvestite whom Cohn met at a “party” in 1952. This relationship blossomed into a close alliance, with Hoover and Cohn exchanging favors, gifts, and elaborate dinners with each other. Hoover would soon become Cohn’s mentor and closest confidant.
J. Edgar Hoover’s recommendation was pivotal in Cohn’s appointment as chief counsel to Senator McCarthy (R-WI).
— Senator Joseph McCarthy (L) and Roy Cohn (R).
— Donald Trump (L), Mayor Ed Koch (M), & Roy Cohn (R).
Roy Cohn would rise to infamy in the cauldron of Cold War paranoia, aiding the controversial Senator Joe McCarthy during the anti-communist trials of the 1950’s. Later as a private lawyer, Cohn served the whims of New York's elite with a ferocity that bordered on the pathological. His client list was a rogues' gallery of American high society, from George Steinbrenner, the owner of the New York Yankees, to the notorious mob boss Carlo Gambino, and more:
“Roy was a powerful force, recognized as a person with deep and varied contacts, politically as well as legally,” Michael Rosen, who worked as an attorney in Cohn’s firm for 17 years, told me. “The movers and shakers of New York, he was very tight with these people—they admired him, they sought his advice. His persona, going back to McCarthy … and his battles with the government certainly attracted clients.”
It was a long, formidable list that included the executives of media empires, the Archbishop of New York and mafia kingpin Fat Tony Salerno, and there, too, near the top, was budding, grasping Donald John Trump.
— Michael Kruse, ‘He Brutalized For You’: How Joseph McCarthy henchman Roy Cohn became Donald Trump’s mentor.
Amidst this shadowy pantheon of the criminal and corrupt, Donald J. Trump would become Cohn’s favored disciple. He continued to sing Roy’s praises long after his death: "Roy was brutal, but he was a very loyal guy." Trump, ever the pragmatist, absorbed Cohn's ruthless ethos like a sponge.
After their first meeting in 1973, Trump and Cohn would have near daily conversations until the latter's demise from AIDS-related complications in 1986.
— Ronald Reagan (33°) and Roy Cohn throughout the years.
Ronald Reagan and Cohn were long time allies and friends: Robert Parry detailed numerous accounts of Cohn bestowing personal favors upon Reagan, (and vice versa), including handwritten notes of gratitude & warm birthday greetings. Prior to Roy Cohn's death, Nancy and Ronald Reagan ensured Cohn's inclusion in an exclusive experimental AIDS treatment program. This act of course stood in stark contrast to the Reagan administration's notorious indifference to the burgeoning “AIDS crisis”. (Lest I veer off into the hedges, I will just say that the “isolation” of AIDS is as dubious as COVID’s). This intimate association between Reagan and Cohn, while seemingly at odds with the former's “conservative” values, can only be illuminated by examining the shadowy nexus of organized crime that entangled them.
Both men of course were initiates into the Mystery Religion, but that is not the only social circle they shared. Reagan's mentor, Lew Wasserman, was the president of Music Corporation America (MCA); sculpting not only Reagan's career in film and television but also facilitating his ascendancy to the presidency of the Screen Actors Guild. Like Cohn, Reagan had long-standing ties to these very same criminal networks.
Wasserman, like Cohn's mentor Rosenstiel, was enmeshed with the Mafia. As investigative journalist Dan E. Moldea has noted, the MCA's financial backing of Reagan's gubernatorial bid in 1966 was crucial in helping ensure his victory in the once red state of California. That favor was repayed in spades after Reagan assumed the presidency: the Reagan DOJ quickly quashed an investigation into MCA's mob ties.
— Roy Cohn and Donald Trump throughout the years.
Delving into Cohn's activities, particularly his infamous "blackmail parties," is necessary to shed light on the depth of his influence and the unspeakably evil undercurrents that have shaped political power structures over the last three centuries. Just as much as Lord Dashwood and his Hellfire Club, Roy Cohn’s power ultimately flowed from his use of sexual blackmail and coercion (emphasis mine):
One of the “blackmail parties” Susan Kaufman attended with her then-husband Lewis Rosenstiel was hosted by Cohn in 1958 at Manhattan’s Plaza Hotel, suite 233. Kaufman described Cohn’s suite as a “beautiful suite…all done in light blue.” She described being introduced to Hoover, who was in drag, by Cohn, who told her that Hoover’s name was “Mary” in a fit of barely concealed laughter. Kaufman testified that young boys were present and Kaufman claimed that Cohn, Hoover and her ex-husband engaged in sexual activity with these minors.
New York attorney John Klotz, tasked with investigating Cohn for a case well after Kaufman’s testimony, also found evidence of the “blue suite” at the Plaza Hotel and its role in a sex extortion ring after combing through local government documents and information gathered by private detectives. Klotz later told journalist and author Burton Hersh what he had learned:
“Roy Cohn was providing protection. There were a bunch of pedophiles involved. That’s where Cohn got his power from — blackmail.”
— Whitney Webb, Hidden in Plain Sight: The Shocking Origins of the Jeffrey Epstein Case
Further confirmation of these heinous crimes came from the former head of the NYPD vice squad, James Rothstein (emphasis mine):
"Cohn's job was to run the little boys. Say you had an admiral, a general, a congressman, who did not want to go along with the program. Cohn's job was to set them up, then they would go along. Cohn told me that himself."
— The Franklin Cover-Up
Cohn's manipulation of powerful individuals through blackmail was not merely a means to exert control — it was the unconscionable cornerstone of his political influence.
“I don’t kid myself about Roy. He was NO Boy Scout.”
— President Donald J. Trump, The Art of the Deal (1987)
Roy Cohn was a master of manipulation and blackmail, cultivating a dark empire of control that extended its insidious reach into the highest echelons of politics. His legacy remains one stained by a web of sexual blackmail and corruption, cultivating a network that did not die with him but was passed on to an even more sinister figure. Cohn's nefarious methods and contacts were seamlessly inherited by this man, a figure who continued the same sordid tradition of entrapment and exploitation of children.
Cohn's meticulously constructed blackmail operation ensnared politicians, businessmen, and influential figures across the most powerful strata of society. This continuity ensured that this unseen network's influence and efficacy only grew stronger. Cohn’s death marked not the end, but a sinister evolution of this blackmail empire. The man who would inherit Roy Cohn’s blackmail operation and Mafia connections was someone whom Donald Trump would come to know very well:
Jeffrey Epstein.

THANK YOU! I started putting bits and pieces together regarding Trump awhile back. I voted for him twice…NEVER again! Anyone that is put in high places of power, is selected to be put there! There is only an illusion of choice! The rabbit hole goes DEEP! At 60, I’m really understanding what these maniacs who have been running things throughout the WORLD are doing, and are capable of-scary stuff!
I have Whitney Webb’s books, and she is great!

Great info. What hit me
1. Peale was a Mole.
2. Cohen, and Peale may have influenced Trump but more likely they all grew up in the bosom of crime families and their positions were set for them from the get go.
3. What did the elites get out of McCarthyism? Was it to remove or sully the careers of non globalist politicians?
