Opinions
In February 2026, Shellenberger wrote that "it's clear to us that the totality of available evidence does not support the picture of a government-backed sex blackmail operation. Rather, it suggests that Epstein primarily served his own interests. If Epstein was a slave to anything, it was to his passions and perversions...Finally, there is insufficient evidence, at this time, to determine that someone killed Epstein."[1]
Promoting the official opposition narrative that the "COVID-19 virus leaked from China’s notorious Wuhan Institute of Virology laboratory."[2]
