🚨NEW: Whitney Webb describes how Leslie Wexner has turned New Albany, OH into "Wexnerville" with his own public–private government.
"Over 120 [data centers are] in New Albany"
"It's an insane amount of taxpayer subsidies"
"A lot of these people are... linked to... JD Vance"
"[These] particular guys are part of this crowd of, if you want to call them, accelerationists or, you know, fans of the quote–unquote Dark Enlightenment. They're interested in privatizing government entirely, and then having it be ruled by a CEO dictator, which is basically the model proffered by Curtis Yarvin, who is cozy with all of these people."

---------------Partial transcription of clip----------------
"So, essentially, over time, New Albany became a public–private partnership, where the New Albany Company is in a public–private governing partnership, with the local government, the city of New Albany. And later, he got the— Wexner lobbied to get the law changed even more.
"So it could be a de facto private government that's independent within Ohio, can tax citizens, issue bonds, controls it, in a way that the local, you know, regional government cannot, which is kind of crazy, in and of itself.
"But beyond that, the New Albany company has become one of the main drivers of, in attracting data centers to Ohio. So the state is currently fourth in the country for most data centers. It has, I think, 193. But over 120 of those are, like, in New Albany, in the New Albany area, where that real estate is sold, to those companies that are courted, to that area, you know, by the New Albany company that Wexner controls.
"So he's been making bank off of all of this. And the way that these companies are courted are through these other public private partnerships, the model of which Wexner created initially in Columbus, but now it's spread to every region of the state, where taxpayer money is used to create these large incentive packages, to court these companies over there, even though 75% of them would have relocated anyway.
"But it's an insane amount of taxpayer subsidies that's being funneled to these people through this network that, you know, Wexner created. And as I note in the article, I mean, we can get into some of the specifics, but the corruption is absolutely off the charts. I mean, it's, it's very crazy.
"It's like Banana Republic kind of stuff, going in, in Ohio, and you have these, you know, venture capitalists and other people, you know, coming in and basically buying, you know, buying politicians and using it to privatize major aspects of Ohio regional and state governments. And, you know, a lot of these people are directly linked to people like the current vice president, JD Vance, who was an Ohio senator, or, you know, the guy who's currently running for governor of Ohio, of Vivek Ramaswamy.
"And those particular guys are part of this crowd of, if you want to call them, accelerationists or, you know, fans of the quote–unquote dark enlightenment. They're interested in privatizing government entirely, and then having it be ruled by a CEO dictator, which is basically the model proffered by Curtis Yarvin, who, you know, is, is cozy with all of these people.
"So that effort to basically privatize government in Ohio, it was started by Wexner and Epstein. And as far as the Epstein connection, you know, when Ghislaine Maxwell was interviewed by Todd Blanche, the Deputy Attorney General, she said that Epstein ran New Albany. And as I note in the article, Epstein is all over New Albany. And his billionaire investment company had a branch operating there.
"And it seems to be the same entity that was actually the Wexner Investment Company, or the New Albany Property company, which the Wexner Foundation admitted was a Wexner-related role that Epstein was involved in. Which in itself, you know, just flies in the face of the whole narrative that's been put forth for how Wexner doesn't really have any. Anything to do with any, anything bad Epstein ever did.
"But, you know, I mean, Wexner just runs Ohio. He had members and probably, you know, has a lot of influence over the national governance as well. You know, he was redacted in the Epstein files at first as an alleged co-conspirator. He had members of Congress come to his house to depose him. I mean, none of that is, is normal."
