Domino #1 in the dead-serious game of Taking Down The Cabal:
NXIVM: This is just the beginning, folks! There’s nowhere to hide for the pack of wolves, including Hillary, Chuck Schumer, and Kirsten Gillibrand. Thanks to President Trump’s Executive Order of December 21, the US is now currently seizing all property and wealth that was owned by NXIVM. Their finances are drying up and they have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide!
The scum of the earth. Where’s the wonderful main stream media with this news?

Keith Raniere Guilty on All Counts – Faces Life in Prison
June 19, 2019
The jury was out for less than 5 hours when they reached a unanimous verdict. Guilty on all counts. Guilty on everything. Keith Alan Raniere is guilty.
The lad was led into court by US Marshals. Raniere probably knew – by the quickness of the jury’s verdict – that he was a gone goose. His usually smug countenance was filled with dismay and a discomfited appearance.
He failed. His case failed. The victim witnesses – Sylvie, Mark Vicente, Daniela, Lauren Salzman, Nicole and Jaye persuaded the jury. This was a monster, not a man.
Moments after the verdict was read, the US Marshalls, who have sat in court unobtrusively behind him in plainclothes, day after day, of the long 25 days of trial, slapped handcuffs on Raniere.
There is no more presumption of innocence. No appearance to keep up before the jury.
The man formerly worshiped by his followers as the illustrious Vanguard is now a convicted felon. He is 58. His birthday is August 26, 1960. The sentencing range for his crimes is from 15 years minimum for sex trafficking – up to life in prison.
During the trial, Raniere sat silently, always alert, often scribbling on sticky notes, oft times staring at the witnesses arrayed against him – most of them his former devotees.
Among those testifying for the prosecution were FBI agents and non-DOS victims such as James Loperfido and Rick Ross. There was the longtime confidante of the late Edgar Bronfman – Stephen Herbits – and an expert on sexual assault victims, Dr. Dawn Hughes.
But in the end, it was the women who sunk him. The sympathetic women who to a woman cried over what he had done to them – and how he had destroyed their lives.
Raniere did not testify on his own behalf and chose not to put on a case in his defense. He will be sentenced in September. In the meantime, he’ll be residing at MDC in Brooklyn where he has been held, with other pre-trial prisoners, since April 2018.
But now he’ll likely be housed in the big boys’ section – where those who have been convicted are awaiting sentencing.
Absent some sort of appeal that results in the overturning of his conviction – which seems infinitesimally remote at this juncture – he will spend most of the rest of his life in prison.
