Sabbatean-Frankist historian Leo Zagami joins Faust Checho to expose the Frankist elite, Zionism’s hidden history, and the Jeffrey Epstein network in episode 227 of Far Out with Faust.
Leo Zagami is a historian of Sabbatean and Frankist movements whose research traces how 17th-century messianic sects evolved into influential esoteric and political networks. His work uncovers how the teachings of Sabbatai Zevi, the Dönmeh, Jacob Frank, and Lurianic Kabbalah shaped European aristocracies, early Zionist strategy, and the covert alliances behind modern geopolitical power. Through decades of archival work, Leo has become a leading voice documenting how these ideological currents survive inside elite structures today.
In this conversation, Faust and Leo unravel the hidden lineage behind Epstein’s rise — from the Mega Group and Les Wexner to the intelligence relationships that shielded his operation for decades. They break down how Sabbatean and Frankist ideology diverged from Judaism, how these sects embedded themselves in Ottoman and European politics, and how their influence resurfaced in early Zionist negotiations and 20th-century geopolitical maneuvering. Leo explains the Haavara transfer agreement, the role of the Asiatic Brethren, the philosophical roots found in the Zohar and Lurianic Kabbalah, and how these threads connect to today’s push toward technocracy and consolidated global power.
