LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Drop Site News' reporter Ryan Grim appeared on ‘The Tim Dillon Show’ on Saturday, December 27, where the two discussed the ongoing release of the Epstein files by the Department of Justice.

Grim linked Jeffrey Epstein’s “operations” to the Davos set, an alleged powerful global elite group that runs the world through blackmail.

Grim added that Epstein was at the center of this “fundamentally undemocratic global institution” and had to “jockey for power.” The reporter further stated that he hoped to find evidence of blackmail in the files after the Justice Department released all of them.

Ryan Grim believes Epstein was an 'integral' part of the Davos Set

When Tim Dillon asked Ryan Grim how he would describe Jeffrey Epstein, whether as an agent or an associate, and whether he was employed by the Mossad, the CIA, or the MI6, the reporter stated that organizations had projects, but he believed that Jeffrey Epstein operated on a “layer above” such institutions.

He claimed that they were there to serve major power centers and had different factions within themselves to serve groups at different times.

Grim added that it was understood that the CIA worked for the Davos Set, and that Jeffrey Epstein was an “integral player” in it.

He alleged that Epstein’s fluctuating power was how it worked in “nebulous organizations” like the Davos.

However, Epstein was apparently “right there in the center” and was able to deploy his assets, such as the CIA and Mossad, to serve himself and his allies, which would at times align with the interests of different countries.

The 'Drop Site News' reporter further said that Epstein was essential for the organization since he was immoral and lived in the “grey area.”

Explaining further, Grim stated that to work in such a world, one had to be a “con-artist,” and that they allegedly used Epstein to move diamonds, guns, money, and things that needed to be done off the record.

Ryan Grim claims Epstein knew 'where power' flew

While on ‘The Tim Dillon Show’, Ryan Grim commented on Jeffrey Epstein’s actions and the type of people allegedly involved, while referring to the names that were mentioned in the files released by the DOJ.

The reporter said that despite it being claimed that there was “no Epstein operation,” noting the number of years the disgraced financier was involved in crimes, he said that “at some point you’re gonna have to call that an operation.”

He added that Jeffrey Epstein kept getting involved and being found, apparently from the “Iran-Contra” to the Syrian Civil War.

“He really does know where power flows and where money, commodities, and resources flow,” he added.
