What you're about to see now is not a conspiracy theory. It is a paper trail. It's victim's testimonies, its legislative documents, its corporate press releases, and archived web pages. And when you line them up asset by asset, you don't get closure on Jeffrey Epstein's Zoro ranch in New Mexico, you get a story about eugenics, transhumanism, and a baby farm that the political class suddenly pretends it just discovered.
Now look at this place. This is a 10,000 acre compound in the middle of nowhere New Mexico with its own airstrip, a bizarre temple-looking building, as well as signs of huge underground infrastructure. Now, for decades, Epstein's Zoro ranch sat there quietly. He was arrested in 2019. He died in August of that year. That was 6 and 1/2 years ago. And only now, in 2026, does New Mexico's political class decide, "Hey, maybe we should look into this." Now, the obvious question is, why did they wait until the crime scene could be completely sanitized?
On Monday, the New Mexico House of Representatives approved House Resolution 1, creating a special committee, a so-called truth commission, to investigate Zoro Ranch and allegations of criminal activity and public corruption tied to that property. Now, the resolution explicitly notes that Zoro Ranch has been the subject of great public concern since at least 2019 and that previous legislators did nothing. It empowers this committee to hold hearings, compel witnesses, administer oaths, and issue subpoenas. It can operate through the end of 2026. So, yes, on paper, this has teeth. They can drag people in under oath and demand documents. The land commissioner has also called for state and federal investigations, but again, Epstein's been dead for over 6 years. So, how much physical evidence at this ranch is still untouched?
Now, here's where things get eyebrow-raising. Less than a week ago, a woman went out to Zoro Ranch and filmed what she saw. Heavy equipment, excavators out on the property, clear signs that the ground had been disturbed before the New Mexico House passed this investigative measure. Watch this.
"What you're looking at is the main house. And don't be fooled, it is miles away from the road. Also to note, there is some digging equipment, and that has not been here when I was here previously. This was the house from a similar angle in November, and it's looking a little different over on this side. Okay."
So, ask yourself, if state lawmakers are just now giving themselves subpoena power, but there are excavators on site ahead of that, is this a serious criminal investigation or a cleanup operation with a committee bolted on afterward for show? Especially when we've seen how pathetic the official Epstein investigations have been in the past. Everybody knows Epstein as the sex-trafficking billionaire, but at Zoro Ranch, there's another dimension: a decades-long obsession with eugenics, designer babies, cloning, and using this remote compound as a literal baby farm for his own DNA. So, for a moment, leave aside the murder, the blackmail, the political connections, and let's look at the mad science.
So, 10 days before Epstein died, the New York Times published an article titled "Jeffrey Epstein Hoped to Seed Human Race with His DNA." Now, the article quotes multiple scientists and businessmen who say that starting in the early 2000s, Epstein was openly talking about using his New Mexico ranch as a base where women would be inseminated with his sperm and would give birth to his babies. He reportedly envisioned as many as 20 women at a time impregnated at Zoro Ranch. One participant at a 2006 conference remembered Epstein talking about "perfecting the human genome" and being fascinated by how traits pass on and wanting to create superior humans. So, this isn't internet rumor. This is Epstein talking to award-winning scientists about turning Zoro Ranch into a eugenic-style breeding facility.
Then there's the corporate layer. Epstein's Virgin Islands company, Southern Trust, disclosed in filings that it was engaged in DNA analysis. So, he gave money to transhumanist organizations like Humanity Plus. And in 2011, one of his charities gave $20,000 to the World Transhumanist Association, which rebranded as Humanity Plus, whose stated goal, by the way, is to influence a new generation of thinkers about humanity's next steps. So, his foundation also paid the salary of Humanity Plus vice chairman Ben Gortzell. So, we have a remote ranch, a stated desire for a baby farm, DNA analysis companies, and cash going to the transhumanist movement. This is not just a rich pervert. This is someone trying to engineer the future of the human species.
Now we get to the new Epstein files: emails that show how this baby farm idea connects to actual lab work and real money. Brian Bishop is a Bitcoin developer, biohacker, and self-described mad scientist. And in the released emails, he's pitching Epstein on a designer baby project, talking about human cloning and laying out a funding proposal. In the first email, Bishop sends Epstein a presentation on his designer baby project. He notes that he and a partner have a series of questions about "how serious you are about wanting this." "This isn't generic research. It's something additional to Bishop's existing work." He tells Epstein that most of the questions are about Epstein's "requirements for secrecy and privacy regarding reputational risk and also any financial involvement." He suggests that whatever Epstein wants could be done "under the banner of my designer babies project since the other deliverable is similar and shares so many of the same procedures and lab requirements." So, in other words, Epstein doesn't just want to donate to science. He wants secret science. He wants something that requires absolute anonymity.
In a later email, Bishop is even more explicit. "Sounds like you could be the first investor as long as absolute anonymity is kept." He says he always envisioned anonymity for the babies that "you can't publicly identify who they are or their parents or their benefactors because it would brand the child as a freak for life." He says the financial structure has to be designed around these secrecy demands. Epstein, the guy who already talked about breeding 20 women at a time at Zoro Ranch, is now being pitched on a designer baby project that needs total anonymity and careful financial structuring.
Then we get to the price tag. One email lays out a 5-year plan, around $9.5 million in funding, and the goal is to "get out of the garage biology phase and reach the first live birth of a human designer baby and possibly a human clone within 5 years." That's not speculation. That's the language in the email. Live birth of a human designer baby, possibly a human clone. So, when Epstein is talking about superior humans and seeding the human race, this isn't just cocktail party rambling. There is a concrete research roadmap being proposed to him.
And then there's the geography. In an August follow-up, Bishop updates Epstein. They're proceeding with "more mouse testing in my Ukraine lab, which is surgeries and micro injection." He also says, "An amateur in Mississippi has been testing human sperm modification. So far, only fluorescent tagging, which doesn't work to my purposes for my purposes yet."
So, now add it up. Okay. Epstein talks about a baby farm at Zoro Ranch starting in the early 2000s. He funds transhumanist causes and DNA analysis companies. He's in email conversations about funding a project to create human designer babies and possibly clones, with testing in a Ukrainian lab and secret sperm modification experiments in Mississippi. All of this is happening as late as 2018-2019, long after his first arrest.
This isn't just in the emails. MIT Technology Review ran a piece in early 2019 about a Ukrainian biolab doing exploratory mouse experiments on gene modification ideas tied to do-it-yourself designer babies. The lab was part of Ukraine's state-run Academy of Medical Sciences. And the article reports that Bishop was paying the academy to run those experiments. Now, the question becomes, was Epstein the actual money behind this, using Bishop as a front? In the emails, Bishop is obsessed with anonymity and says the investor must be completely hidden. That's exactly what Epstein is demanding. And just months after those emails, what appears to be Bishop's Twitter account is talking about startups that could one day offer designer babies as a service. "There are startups offering designer babies and human embryo editing right now."
Okay. So, you have a transhumanist biohacker, public tweets about designer baby startups, private emails about human clones, and an investor, Jeffrey Epstein, who wants secrecy, and a ranch set up as a breeding facility. So, now let's bring in a victim's side antidote that lines up disturbingly well.
In 2020, Mother Jones published an article where a reporter called people from Epstein's black book. One of them, a former art student they called Tracy, had a story. She had been told Epstein funded artists, so she went to his New York townhouse. She says he acted like a gentleman for two hours, talking about Dolly, the cloned sheep, and the whole cloning thing. He told her he had a place in New Mexico that already was working on cloning humans. Now, the article says, um, actually, she didn't say New Mexico, she said Mexico, and the article says Mexico, but Epstein's actual scientific playground, the one tied to his eugenics fantasies, is in New Mexico: Zoro Ranch. So, it's not hard to imagine a confused memory for that detail. Now, Tracy says that she left when he tried to grope her, but she told the reporter, "You're going to think it's totally crazy, but I bet you he cloned himself and whoever killed themselves was a clone. I wouldn't put it past that. He's out there somewhere." Um, he said he had a lab in Mexico because the Dolly thing got shut down. So, is that provable? No. But it's one more data point: victims and contacts independently recalling Epstein talking about cloning humans at his off-the-grid facility.
Now we get into the most disturbing material: diary entries from a minor included in the latest Epstein files. This minor describes being impregnated by Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, referring to "so many bonding moments with Jeffrey, Ghislaine, and their baby inside me." She writes, "I'm tired of keeping this secret." She talks about a "superior gene pool. Why me? It makes no sense. Why my hair color and eye color?" She explicitly calls Epstein's ideas "very Nazi-like," connecting his theories to eugenics. She says she feels like a human incubator, not a person. She describes giving birth, being allowed only 10 to 15 minutes to hold and feed her baby before they took her. "She's mine. I want her back." She writes that they took the first baby who survived and refers to an earlier miscarriage. The diary even includes a sonogram image, reinforcing that this wasn't just abstract psychological manipulation. There was a real pregnancy, a real child. So, when you hear "baby farm," this isn't just some outlandish speculative phrase. A minor victim is describing being used as a human incubator for Epstein's "superior gene pool."
So, if you're going to run a secretive cloning or designer baby program, you don't do it in the living room. You need infrastructure. There's an email in Epstein's files from the Zoro Ranch manager that looks boring at first. It's basically a punch list of things to inspect or repair, but the locations it mentions are not normal ranch features. The manager references "seller bathroom showers, plural." So, you have a desert ranch with a cellar, multiple showers down there, and then an entire sub-cellar with wood flooring. Sub-cellar, multiple showers. This isn't just a root cellar for potatoes. It suggests significant underground facilities on a supposedly remote private estate.
Drone footage of Zoro Ranch shows about five massive vents on the property. Big structures that look like air intakes or exhaust stacks for something underground. Watch this.
"I think what you're actually seeing in this shot is possibly uh three or more vents um to an underground area. Possibly more than that. I've I've looked at some of the footage from different angles and I think there's I think there's at least five different vents uh leading to some underground area. And that dovetails with some of the information that some of the people that actually went to the ranch claim they saw a massive room full of computers underneath the house. And given the size of these vents, there's definitely a lot more than just one room full of massive computers because uh you don't need this many vents this far apart for just one room. Even a really large room, even a giant basement, you wouldn't need that many uh vents. So, I think there is a significant underground presence to that facility."
"Okay. Put that together with the manager's references to cellars and sub-cellars and with witness accounts from Epstein victim Maria Farmer, who says Epstein's properties had enormous mechanical rooms, tunnel systems, and rooms filled with computers with hidden cameras everywhere. According to Farmer, those mechanical big rooms were bigger than houses, and every estate had pinhole cameras recording everything. Now, you don't build that kind of underground infrastructure for fun."
Now, step back from Zoro Ranch and look at the kind of organizations Epstein attached himself to. One is the Lifeboat Foundation, an NGO that describes itself as dedicated to helping humanity survive existential risks and the misuse of powerful technologies like genetic engineering and AI. Now, Epstein was listed on their site as on the board of financiers. After his arrest, that mention disappeared. When two researchers called Lifeboat and asked about Epstein, the organization tried to claim he did nothing for them and downplayed any association.
"Hello."
"Hi. Is this Lifeboat Foundation?"
"Yes."
"Which are massive, house-size underground living spaces?"
"No, we don't have any actual bunkers. It was just an idea by one of our board members. So, we have like one page devoted to it on our site. It's not even like a primary goal of our organization. A primary goal is to protect humans against existential risk and any real serious risk. Any bunker on Earth would be insufficient to protect you against it."
"Oh, I also see that uh it looks like Jeffrey Epstein was on the board here. Did he have some kind of..."
"No, he's not."
"Oh, okay. Maybe that's is that old or something?"
"Yeah. So again, if you look at our our bunker page, it's just a few paragraphs. I don't want to make a big deal out of it."
"Oh yeah. No, sorry. Not trying to make a big deal out of the air. Just was just was looking up."
"Okay. So that's interesting because they had previously advertised him as a financier."
Lifeboat also promotes the idea of underground bunkers, life shield bunkers to protect elites from catastrophic risks. Take a look.
"Join our survival colonies. Secure your future in our state-of-the-art underground bunkers."
Okay, so here's the picture. Epstein, the transhumanist donor, the financier, you know, on the financier board group of a group advocating underground bunkers to write out future disasters. Epstein, whose ranch may have had massive underground facilities and vents. Epstein who fantasized about seeding a post-catastrophic human race with his own DNA.
Now, let's jump to the present and the new owner of Zoro Ranch. For years, nobody knew who bought the ranch after it was put on the market following Epstein's death. It finally sold in 2023 via a newly formed LLC, reportedly for far less than the original asking price. Now, on Monday, we learned the buyer: Texas businessman and self-described MAGA Republican Don Huffines. Now, Huffines has been tied to Hest Group, Hest Investments, which is a venture capital firm. Now, archived snapshots of Hest's "Our Team" page lists him as president. But when you go to the page now, it's been scrubbed. No Huffines. Huffines can't be found. Page deleted. Okay. So, why does that matter? Because Hest Investment led a $1.8 million SPV investment into a company called Secretome Therapies. Um, in the press coverage, Hest CEO Don Huffines is quoted, "We're thrilled to support Secret Therapeutics and its mission to revolutionize regenerative medicine."
So, what does Secretome do? Well, Secretome Therapies says it develops regenerative therapies using cells and factors derived from neonatal cardiac tissue. Now, according to their own description, they source cells from ethically consented neonatal cardiac tissue collected during medically necessary surgeries in full-term newborns treated for congenital heart defects. In other words, they conduct research on heart tissue taken from newborn babies under 30 days old. They insist that everything is ethically sourced and properly consented, and there's no evidence contradicting that. But here's the coincidence. The man funding research on newborn baby heart tissue is also the man who bought Jeffrey Epstein's ranch. The same Zoro Ranch that Epstein wanted to turn into a baby farm to seed humanity with his DNA.
Now, Huffines has said he wants to convert Zoro Ranch into a Christian retreat and has talked about this in friendly interviews.
"Now you have plans to uh take something evil and bring it into goodness, bring it into light and positivity. Tell us about that plan."
"Well, of course, uh that is the main reason I bought the property. Uh this was obviously a dark place, and we wanted to put light in a dark place. It always shines the brightest when you do that. My faith is is so strong in Jesus, and it really is. And I'm going to make this, the plan all along is to make this property into a Christian retreat. A matter of fact, it's under construction today. And that's our goal. That's why we named it San Raphael. Uh we named St. St. Raphael, as you probably know, you know, uh an archangel, and his, and his what he does and and helps people with is uh healing and and being the healer, and also blessing those that are traveling, and we think that's really germane to this property."
"Okay. Yeah, that's the line. This place of unimaginable abuse and alleged mad science will be reborn as a peaceful retreat center. Okay, maybe that's true. But when you stack it next to everything else: the designer baby emails, the victim diary about being a human incubator, the underground vents, the bunker talk, and the baby tissue venture. It sounds less like a redemption story and more like the setup to a bad B-movie."
So, what was Zoro Ranch? Put all the numbered assets together, and here's what they suggest, right? Epstein openly talked about using Zoro Ranch to impregnate 20 women at a time and seed the human race with his DNA. He funded transhumanist organizations, DNA analysis companies, and sat on the financier board of a bunker-building NGO. Emails show him in talks to finance a $9.5 million program aiming for the first live birth of a human designer baby or clone within 5 years, with mouse testing at a Ukrainian lab and early work on human sperm modification. We have a minor's diary describing being impregnated by Epstein, treated as a human incubator for his superior gene pool, and having her baby taken away. The ranch itself appears to have cellars, sub-cellars, multiple showers underground, and huge vents consistent with a large bunker or lab complex, with victims describing enormous mechanical rooms and ubiquitous cameras. And now the property belongs to a political figure backing a company that works with newborn baby heart tissue, while the state of New Mexico, 6 and 1/2 years late, suddenly decides it's time for a truth commission to investigate.
So, you can decide for yourself what was really going on at Epstein's Zoro Ranch. But don't let anyone tell you there's nothing to see here. The documents, the emails, the victims, the underground structures, the transhumanist money trail, they all point in one direction. This wasn't just a sex crime hideaway. It looks a lot more like a clandestine lab for engineering the future of humanity, one stolen child at a time.
Now, this is the first of our series on Zoro Ranch. We do have another part to this. There was just too much to cover today. But the plot gets darker, and you can look forward to that next week.
