Whitney Webb’s One Nation Under Blackmail tells the story of the system that enabled Jeffrey Epstein — the hedge fund manager who was charged with sex trafficking minors, and managed to blackmail the country’s most influential people and institutions for their involvement in his atrocious operations.
A compelling, avant-garde investigation overlooked by other media and reports: For decades, numerous scandals, corruption schemes, and organized crimes have been traced to the same powerful networks that supported Epstein, along with other American and foreign intelligence services, and other public figures who remain in positions of power to this day. Webb’s journalistic expertise has enabled her to craft an eye-opening investigation that uncovers how these underground groups have infiltrated and taken control of key American institutions.
Connecting the dots: If curling up with a book about power, intelligence agencies and corruption is your cup of tea, we’d recommend checking this deep-dive investigative read. Webb ties together names and events that mainstream media outlets avoid or touch on very briefly do with heavily researched historical context and analysis. Meanwhile, the second volume builds upon the laid historical overview in the first one.
