Well, there's been another Epstein connected suicide, um, or at least a suicide attempt in this one. Thorburn Yagland, he was the former prime minister of Norway, also the former chair of the Nobel committee that gives out the Nobel prizes. He is reportedly now in critical condition after a suicide attempt. Now, very well could be a suicide attempt. We're going to explore the options here. Was it a suicide attempt? Um, he's, you know, if he survives, then that's that, that tells you something, maybe then he would speak about it. Um, if he doesn't survive, he's, he's reportedly in very, very serious condition, then, you know, I think then a lot of us would question if he really did commit, try to commit suicide, or if he was suicided. That is the big question now.
Who is first of all Thornberg Yagland? He was the prime minister of Norway from October of 1996 to October of 1997. He was the minister of foreign affairs of Norway from March, March of 2000 to October of 2001. He also served other roles, but then he was the secretary general of the Council of Europe from 2009 to 2019 and reelected for a second term, um, in that role. He also was a member of the Norwegian Nobel Committee from 2009 to 2020, uh, to 2020, serving as its chair from 2009 to 2015. And that's the role you have to hone in on. It's not the fact that Thor, Thorburn Yagland was the prime minister of Norway. It's not the fact that he was the minister of foreign affairs of Norway. It is the fact that he was the chair of the Nobel Committee. That is where he was valuable to Epstein. That is where he provided a massive amount of real estate to Epstein. And that is also one of the areas where he is being investigated.
Now, why did he potentially commit suicide if he is the one who committed suicide, if he really truly was committing, trying to kill himself? Why would he want to do that? Well, there's good reason, uh, why a person may feel like their life is so devastating that they want to take some drastic measure like this. And that is because Norwegian prosecutors had charged Yaglin with aggravated corruption tied to gifts, travel, and loans from Epstein. And the Nobel committee also has ordered an archival review to see if there was any improper influence. So he's under investigation. He's been arrested. And yes, maybe he just thought, I don't have anything to live for. And maybe he then did attempt to kill himself.
Um, the report that we have where he attempted to kill himself. This is coming from, um, says here, former Norwegian prime minister hospitalized after suicide attempt amidst Epstein corruption charges. Former Nobel Peace Prize chairman Thornberg Yagland is in critical condition after facing gross corruption charges linked to the Epstein case. Now, apparently, he tried to do this last week, but we're just finding out about it now. That is when someone finally leaked that, hey, this guy has been in the hospital and apparently it's because he tried to kill himself. Um, they're saying that, uh, that his condition remains serious. The specific medical facility treating the 75-year-old statesman has not been disclosed. The former Nobel Peace Prize chairman is in critical condition after facing gross corruption charges linked to the Epstein case. He is, um, also one of Norway's most prominent political figures, having served as prime minister and secretary general of the Council of Europe. And, um, yeah, so that's all we really know. We know that the Norwegian police raided several of his homes this month and, you know, he's under some serious investigation.
Let's look at some of the emails between him and Epstein that got him into hot water. And it's not just these emails between the two of them. There's a lot of other emails, and we're going to get into it because the question is, why was he important to Epstein? Why would he, you know, right now, we're just looking at why he would want to kill himself. You know, you're under investigation. They're raiding your homes. You were this prominent, looked at politician, and now you're falling from grace. Yeah, that does lead a lot of people into depression, and maybe they would then want to do something very drastic, and definitely not something they should do, which is try to kill themselves.
Then we're going to look at why maybe other people would want this guy dead because there's a lot of reasons. Um, but let's look at the emails between him and Epstein. So this was May of 2012. Yaglin to Epstein. He says, "I've been in Toronto, which is Albania. Extraordinary girls." He says, "January of 2013, Yaglin also said, 'By the way, Hannah and I have talked about coming back to somewhere in the Caribbean with my sons during Easter to c to celebrate her 60th birthday. I can't keep going only with young women as you know.'" So I mean, you know, these emails coming back, coming out have also not only triggered a crisis in his professional polish of him being this, you know, successful, revered politician in Norway, but this has also obviously caused problems in his family. He was cheating on his wife with a lot of young women, and now his wife and his children know about it because of the Epstein files.
So June of 2016, Yaglin also said, "Yes, terrible times. If Trump wins in the US, I'll settle on your island. Before that, I'll be in New York in September. Lots of things to talk about." Both parties want you to believe they're working for the people, but let's be honest, Washington is bought and paid for. Big corporations in Wall Street get bailed out while working Americans get left with higher prices, shrinking savings, and endless promises that never materialize. The system is corrupt. And when it breaks, they won't be the ones paying the price. We will. That's why I put my trust in something outside of their control. Physical gold and silver from American Hartford Gold.

February of 2017, Yaglin said, um, he invited Epstein to visit him in Strasbourg, which is where the Council of Europe is, um, set. And he says to understand, to quote, understand more about Trump and what's going to, what's going on in American society, um, probably the America First stuff and the not Israel First stuff. Then June of 2018, Epstein to Yaglin said, "I think you might suggest to Putin that Lavrov can get insight on talking to me." So he's talking about President Putin of Russia and the foreign minister of Russia, Lavrov, getting Epstein's take on Trump, which was also referenced prior in prior talks with Russia's ex-UN ambassador. So, and then, um, um, Turkin, who is Russia's ex-UN ambassador, said what Epstein said was Turkin was great. He understood Trump after our conversations. It's not complex. He must be seen to get something. It's that simple. So, um, Yaglin's reply was he said he'd met Lavrov's assistant the next day and suggested the Epstein connection. He said, "Thank you for a lovely evening. I'll come to a UN high-level week or something like that."
So, um, the emails themselves are not that, you know, I mean, he does admit to going to the islands. He obviously admits to cheating on his wife. These are all really bad. But what's actually more, I think, interesting is what Epstein was using and wanting, what he was wanting him for, what he wanted Thornberg for. So what did he want Yaglin for? He was the chair of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee. And that was the real estate that Epstein was going after. It wasn't that he was a prime minister of Norway or a foreign minister or any of these other things. That didn't seem to be the reason Epstein wanted to capture him into his collection. He wanted him for the Nobel Peace Prize because a lot of really powerful and rich people, for whatever reason, really want this award. They want it really bigly. Trump is one of them. Trump really, really, really wants a Nobel Prize. So, this is a big deal in society's elite circles. And Yaglin brought that asset into Epstein's orbit. He was the chair of the Nobel Prize. Epstein got to brag about him, got to invite people to things, got to get to connect people. One of those people being Bill Gates. Bill Gates was a person who openly in emails with Epstein was essentially begging for a Nobel Prize. He wanted a Nobel Prize, and he believed Epstein had the ability to get it for him. Why did he believe that? Well, because Epstein was friends with Thornberg Yagland and had him in his orbit, had him in his clenches. In fact, he was bringing him to his island very clearly. He was having sex with young girls. Who knows how young, but he, he clearly had his clutch, his, you know, he had Yaglin by the balls.
So, um, Yaglin brought those, you know, that concrete asset to to Epstein, which is he's the Nobel chair of the Nobel committee, um, overseeing prizes like the one Obama got in 2009, the EU in 2012. Epstein repeatedly touted that the quote head of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee was staying with him when he was inviting elites like Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Larry Summers, and Steve Bannon, using that as bait. Using Yaglin as bait also, um, Yaglin brought, and what we're seeing from the emails is that he brought access to other elites, other global elites, ambitious global elites who wanted that prize. So Epstein explicitly name-dropped Yaglin in messages to a variety of other people like Summers and others, signaling that he could broker this proximity to the Nobel system, but also he wanted the access that Yaglin had to others. So Yaglin was a good person for Epstein to bring in in order to connect to other wealthy and powerful individuals. That is where Yaglin was really, really valuable to Epstein. And not only that, but he also gave some status to Epstein, right? He gave him some institutional and diplomatic status. He was not just a Nobel Chair. He was also the former Norwegian prime minister, also the head of the Council of Europe. So that gave him standing in these human rights and diplomatic circles that Epstein could point to as proof that he still belonged in this respectable company and respectable society despite his conviction.
So Epstein described Yagland as not bright, um, but he had a unique perspective, suggesting that Epstein saw him more as a usable asset than as a strategic mastermind of some sort. Now, Bill Gates, multiple sources, books, press coverage report that Gates was interested in a Nobel Peace Prize. And he believed Epstein could help him connect to the people, the right people in order to get that. Epstein wrote to Gates in 2014 to say that Yaglin had been reelected at the Council of Europe. And Gates replied, "That's good. Is his peace committee job also up in the air?" Clearly signaling interest in Yaglin's Nobel related role. Um, that is when he had been reelected, um, when he was on the, the, uh, general council of Europe. And so then Gates is like, that's good. Okay. Is this peace committee job also up in the air? So he wants to know, is he going to still be going in, what, you know, do I have some access to this guy? Um, so there's been a lot of interest. Gates is one of them. Also, Epstein dangled Jaglin's presence to entice figures across the spectrum. Richard Branson, Larry Summer, Steve Bannon, others are explicitly mentioned in files as people he tried to lure using that Nobel Glamour. And that is, you know, so basically Epstein was using that Nobel connection was like a marketing device for him in a way. It was a way to promise proximity and prestige and maybe even some future favor, and, um, Epstein definitely aggressively marketed his access to Yaglin to powerful people.
Now, that raises another question. The Nobel committee is now looking into, was there any influence? Did Yagland give prizes to people or vote in certain ways to giving people prizes because Epstein wanted him to do it? And if the answer is yes, then the question is, who? And the other question is, did that who know that the reason they were getting the prize was not because they really earned it, but because Epstein was helping them get it? My, my guess would be yes. My guess would be that Epstein definitely let them know that, hey, I was the one who helped connect you to the right people in order to get you in front of the right committee to get you that prize. So my guess is these people might be suspicious that yes, it might be them, and they might know that Yagland or they wanted the prize not because they just wanted to earn a prize, but they wanted the prize for the prestige. They didn't care how they got it, and they knew that that, that they, the way the, the way they got it was through blackmail operations between Epstein and Yaglin themselves and whatever that connection. And they would then have reason, there would be motive there to want somebody dead, somebody who may know this, somebody who may talk, somebody who's been arrested and facing charges. That person might want to strike a deal. And that deal might include dropping some names of others inside of his prestigious Nobel who maybe didn't earn the prizes the traditional way. And that would be motive. There would be a lot of motive there. There's a lot of really powerful people who wanted these prizes who Yaglin could rat out.
And so, you know, we got to keep the possibility open that yes, of course, there's a possibility, of course, that he maybe tried to kill himself because, yeah, his world is coming crumbling down right now. He built this whole career, and now he's 75 years old, and in the last stretch of his life, he's now going to go down as a shameful figure, full of corruption and cheating on his wife and family. So, he's ruined, his entire life is ruined now at the age of 75. So, of course, there's a possibility that he decided to just end it. But there's also a lot of people, very connected people, very powerful people, who may feel like Yaglin just knows a little bit too much. And that is another reason to potentially have another person suicided.
