The Epstein Files Reveal Who the Government Really Works For - Andrew Bustamente x Tom Bilyeu (Video)

In this 3 June 2025 Impact Theory video, host Tom Bilyeu takes a deep dive into the shadowy world of global intelligence, power and leverage with former CIA officer Andrew Bustamante. Together, Tom and Andrew unpack the real stories behind headlines like Jeffrey Epstein, the release of classified files, and notorious geopolitical events—from spy balloons to the intricate power plays in Russia, China, and the Middle East.

Andrew reveals the hidden strategies intelligence agencies use to shape public perception, control narratives, and wield secrets as weapons of influence. They explore the uncomfortable truth about “moral flexibility” at the highest levels—how governments and power brokers sidestep good and evil in favor of outcomes and leverage. You’ll hear jaw-dropping real-world examples, from possible government involvement in historical events like the Lusitania, to how modern conflicts are manipulated behind the scenes.

Expect hard-hitting dialogue about mass psychology, the deception of appearances, and how nation-states navigate today’s powder keg of global crises. Andrew’s insights force us to question what we believe, whether we’re living inside illusions, and how much our own sense of morality is actually shaped by the systems around us.
