America is shifting its global foreign policy (against the howling shrieks of the world Plutocracy – including American socialist institutions) because of one very patent, albeit intentionally obscured, fact of life:
Russia (and much of Eastern Europe) has evolved from Communist/Atheist to Capitalist/Christian while Western Europe has devolved from Capitalist/Christian to Communist/Atheist.
The American people in November 2024 voted by overwhelming majority to cease bankrolling the Communist/Atheist agenda at home and abroad. Indeed, it was and is the heart and soul of the current administration’s policy.
It is by design that the global political picture seems so complex as to defy understanding. The Globalist Plutocracy (increasingly acting through such vehicles as WEF (World Economic Forum, headed by patent Nazi Klaus Schwab), the EU (European Union, headed by patent Nazi Ursula Gertrude von der Layen) and thoroughly socialist/communist sub arms such as the UN and WHO (World Health Organization) do all in their power to obscure matters. The Globalist Plutocracy owned corporate media intentionally keeps it too complex to grasp.
The Plutocrats create endless distraction in order to cover up the most important, fundamental truths that have unfolded in plain sight, again:
Russia (and much of Eastern Europe) has evolved from Communist/Atheist to Capitalist/Christian while Western Europe has devolved from Capitalist/Christian to Communist/Atheist.
The EU has announced with great pleasure that it is backing Germany’s announced rearmament, notwithstanding the fact that its last two rearmaments resulted in World War I and World War II. Its motivation is the enforcement of its modern brand of socialism/communism through Eastern Europe toward the conquering of Russia (notwithstanding its last two such efforts winding up in catastrophe, lead by Napoleon and Hitler). If Afghanistan is where empires come to die, Russia is where Western European autocracies come to die (Napoleon’s, Hitler’s, and even Stalin/Lenin’s – a decidedly German Marxist import).
The EU’s recent militarization craze, centered in the heart of 20th Century Reich building, is seasoned with Socialist racism (not a surprise coming from the birthplace of “White Supremacy”). You hear tones of it issuing from modern day autocrats like UK’s Keir “Der” Starmer, France’s Emannuel “the groomed one” Macron, and Germany’s revolving door of Adolf wannabes. Their dog whistles, subtly but constantly condemn Eastern Europeans and Russians as some sort of Slavic menace. It is never about policy, it is never about specifics, it is about “the Russians are Coming!” and they must be put down like some rabid beasts. Today’s plutocrats are so irrationally shrill as to look like Dr. Strangelove caricatures.
The EU has already suspended free speech, interfered in and reversed results in democratic nations’ elections, and continues to promote the killing of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians and Russians to achieve its Communist/Atheist ends.
In spite of the neo maniacal corporate media push to install distractors designed to cause amnesia, never forget history lest you be condemned to not recognizing when it begins to repeat itself.
The recent development of Trump expressing “anger” at Putin and the threat of escalating sanctions against Russia for apparently wanting a less Zelensky/EU dictated peace may be theater. Trump may be attempting to win some EU/Corporate media/Neo Con support for the peace effort. If not, and he genuinely believes he is going to bully Russia into compliance, WWIII is further along than virtually anyone (with the possible exception of Russia and China) realize. Indeed, the NY Time’s recent “expose” (read CIA press release) about the “secret history” of the war in Ukraine is clearly designed to harden Putin’s resolve. While attempting to blame the Ukraine war’s failure on the erstwhile hero of its own creation (Zelensky) the Times also thoroughly paints two important pictures a) the Biden administration micro managed every detail of what was clearly a proxy war against Russian and b) the US military is a woke-culture crippled shadow of its former glory.
What does Ukraine have to do with Psy Ops fueled by your tax dollars being run on you? Everything. Nobody breaks down the Truman Show nature of today’s American society better than one of the few surviving deans of investigative journalism, Matt Taibbi. All corporate media a) prohibits the types of truth Taibbi specializes in uncovering, and b) constantly puts out the false narratives the truth is buried beneath. Therefore, Taibbi is fully independent. He operates Racket News on the Substack platform, here Racket News. Each week he and journalist/author Walter Kirn put out a broadcast that sums up and analyzes the week’s biggest corporate/deep-state sponsored, psy op snow jobs pulled on the American public. As a means to clear your mind from the fog of continual psy ops, I highly recommend a subscription to Racket News and especially to the weekly broadcast there, This Week in America. In the meantime, here’s Taibbi’s latest piece, providing the receipts on the truth that if you wave the Ukranian flag your mind has been captured with malice aforethought by people who believe Americans are sheep to be manipulated.
Sir Keir Starmer has told Volodymyr Zelensky he has “full backing across the United Kingdom” as the two met in Downing Street.
The Ukrainian president told the prime minister he was happy his country had “such friends” after arriving in the UK in the wake of a White House meeting with US President Donald Trump that descended into a row between the two leaders…
I read that headline as “Starmer gives Zelensky ‘full backrub,’” which might have been more accurate. The Zelensky World Tour for the last week now includes punking the White House, lecturing America for its insufficient billions, getting yelled at for having “no cards” by a furious Donald Trump (who took offense “on Putin’s behalf,” not the taxpayer’s, according to the New York Times), then instantly backtracking on X and opening the door to a NATO-less solution. Afterward, he fled across the pond to England, where he offered to resign in exchange for NATO admission before dismounting into the arms of Starmer, who eased urgency toward a settlement by pledging to stand with Ukraine “for as long as it may take.”
Zelensky’s transformation from affable populist to Anne Applebaum’s idea of a sex symbol was off-putting even before he started appearing before swooning legislators around the world wearing his trademark wan face and “I Saved The World From Putin and All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt” costume. We just spent three years turning a fixable local issue into a test case for a new ethos of imperial intransigence, one that apparently requires constant weeding of unbelievers and full control of media to preserve “democracy.” Zelensky may not have started as a hawk for this global Misinformation is Murder movement, but once he realized selling the idea was a requirement for NATO’s billions, he threw himself into the role with gusto. Now, he’s refusing to give up the part.
Many readers were offended last week by my irreligious attitude toward Ukraine’s president. Those of us who won’t salute this NATO-crafted character actor are apparently “careening into full-on MAGA paranoia,” no better than “comrades” and “fellow travelers” in Vladimir Putin’s figurative if not literal employ. The former comedian is now reprising Ben Kingsley’s Marvin role as the Mandarin, playing tough-guy mascot for transnational bureaucrats whose idea of a good joke is getting Americans to pay to correct their own wrong opinions. Maybe he’s doing what he has to do for his country, but seriously, fuck him. And fuck Starmer, for that matter.
If you’re not offended by the whole affair, you should be. Recapping:
Placed in an impossible situation when Russian forces massed on his border in early 2022, Zelensky at first pursued a strategy of speaking his mind. He criticized Americans for withdrawing diplomats from Kyiv pre-invasion, saying, “We do not have a Titanic situation here.” American officials complained he was “poking us in the eye” with comments that were “mind-boggling,” adding they were “puzzling” over his apparent optimism about a deal with Russia. They preferred he take a different approach, one in line with a new American idea about “information warfare” that didn’t permit local politicians to act like they had a say in how America chose to conduct wars on their territories.
Before Russia invaded, American officials announced in a series of high-profilefeatures in the New York Times that it planned to “beat the master at his own game” by using the press to engage in “information warfare,” claiming it was difficult to go “toe-to-toe with an autocratic state” if the U.S. couldn’t also flood the media zone with untrammeled propaganda. The first target of “information warfare” was said to be Putin. By releasing intelligence in papers like the Times, we were told, he might be stunned by our level of insight into his operations and “reconsider the political, economic and human costs of an invasion.” Pre-invasion, America’s former ambassador to Ukraine even told us the new strategy was working, that “Putin has already blinked” and was now “looking for a way out.”
Tanks rolled anyway three weeks later, after which we were told there was a new target of “information warfare”: ordinary people, including Ukrainians and the foreign populations supporting them. Our leading media outlets now filled with heroic stories of Ukrainian resistance, including the eerily Bastogne-like “Go fuck yourself” tale of Snake Island Ukrainians choosing death over surrender to a Russian warship, or portraits of the mysterious “Ghost of Kyiv,” a MiG-29 fighter pilot who “dominates the skies” with his supersonic “brass balls.” The story was repeated over channels like MSNBC even after it came out that the key images had been stitched together from old Twitter posts and a flight simulator program:
GOOGLE AI Overview:
The “Ghost of Kyiv” is a mythical fighter pilot that some say shot down Russian planes over Kyiv in 2022. The Ukrainian Air Force later acknowledged that the fighter was fictional.
The Times in pointing out that these stories proved mythical noted they “do not compare to the falsehoods being spread by Russia,” and that it was “important” to “keep morale high among the fighters and marshal global support for their cause.” A senior fellow at the New America Foundation, Peter Singer, said, “If Ukraine had no messages of the righteousness of its cause, the popularity of its cause, the valor of its heroes, the suffering of its populace, then it would lose.” He added that in the social media age, audiences are targets and participants, so sharing such images “makes them combatants of a sort as well.”
We were no longer just readers about the conflict in Ukraine, but a type of soldier in battle. By swallowing tales like the “Ghost of Kyiv,” we were “doing our part,” to put it in Starship Troopers terms. But how to square this with the movement against “misinformation”? First, the Times quoted one “Twitter user” saying, “‘Why can’t we just let people believe some things?’” Then it quoted Twitter, which said such videos didn’t violate its terms of service. Finally, Stanford Internet Observatory director Alex Stamos declared, “I think this demonstrates the limits of ‘fact-checking’ in a fast-moving battle with real lives at stake.”
It wasn’t until a year later that we found out that these events coincided with a broad-scale program in which the Ukrainian secret service, the SBU, sent lists of accounts it wished to ban to the FBI, which in turn sent those requests to American platforms. We thought it was a scoop when a letter from the FBI’s San Francisco office to Twitter asking to remove Canadian journalist Aaron Maté along with hundreds of other accounts was found in the Twitter Files.
That was just one item on a giant conveyor belt of SBU requests to Twitter, Instagram, and other outlets. The House Weaponization of Government Committee later found the SBU induced the FBI to pass on requests to remove 15,865 posts across 5,165 Facebook accounts, and even requested (by mistake, possibly) the removal of the official Russian language Instagram account of the US State Department, @USAPoRusski. When colleague Lee Fang managed to contact Ilya Vitiuk, head of Ukraine’s cybersecurity service, and asked how he differentiated “Russian disinformation” from legitimate content, Vitiuk explained, “I say, ‘Everything that is against our country, consider it a fake, even if it’s not.’”
In April 2023 word broke that an Air National Guardsman named Jack Teixiera was arrested after leaking intelligence documents. These showed internal U.S. assessments calling Ukraine a “catastrophic situation” that was “grinding toward a stalemate” and a “protracted war beyond 2023.” This came out just after Anthony Blinken said Ukraine’s position was “stronger than ever,” Joe Biden said Putin would “never” win, and General Ben Hodges said Ukraine would be liberated by August.
Having established the U.S. may conduct “information warfare” even against its own people, it now arrested Teixiera for interrupting official messaging with truth, and media outlets like the Times and the Washington Posthelped authorities catch their own source. Not only did media not report negative news about Ukraine, it helped authorities arrest those who possessed such information.
David Sanger, the Times reporter who helped write the piece introducing “information warfare,” now wrote an article explaining that the “freshness” of the Pentagon Leaker docs made them different from those of Ed Snowden or the Wikileaks cables. It also became common to dismiss any defense of Teixiera or communication of the information he leaked as right-wingpropaganda.
If you’re keeping score, the Ukraine war established American officials could plant deceptions in media as part of “information warfare”; Pro-Ukraine deceptions would be tolerated to maintain “morale”; Russian media was blocked officially in Europe and quasi-officially here; individual posts of Americans were routinely removed or deamplified, sometimes at the behest of Ukraine; and leaks of true information running counter to our own state media narratives would be harshly punished. We banned foreign state media, and essentially mandated fealty to our version at home.
Less formal campaigns denounced anyone who advocated a “diplomatic solution” as a spewer of Russian talking points, on par with the Russian diplomats who were now described as “disinformation warriors.” It did not take much digging to figure out that many Ukrainian news operations denouncing figures like John Mearsheimer or Robert F. Kennedy were funded by the American State Department. The U.S.-Ukraine Foundation that ran a piece saying Kennedy furthered “Russian talking points” had a DOS award, and others with detailed schematics of Ukraine’s informational enemies were done up spiffily by USAID contractors. One is a perfect metaphor for what this war turned into: a way for European contractors to get paid by Americans to correct Americans.
The sub-awards for Peregrine (a company “associated” with other names like Goldbelt and CP Marine) included a $2.43 million outlay for a British firm called “Zinc Network.” That contract featured a similar start date of September 27, 2018, and ran through 2023. Like Peregrine, Zinc is linked to at least three names, including Breakthrough Media and Camden Creative. The description of its award from Peregrine says it aimed to “mitigate the effects of Russian disinformation and engage online audiences primarily in the east of Ukraine by amplifying trusted local voices” to “present a positive, democratic version of a unified Ukraine.”
Following just this one group of contractors reveals the United States spent hundreds of millions of dollars on “social media influence” all over the world. In Ukraine, much of the money went to European middlemen who created dummy Internet personalities to sell the war. They put this in writing! Zinc was obligated $1.23 million from the State Department’s Office of Acquisition Management for two contracts, each of which would “identify, train, and engage 25 to 40 social media influencers” who’d “produce and publish their own social media content in line with U.S. Foreign policy objectives.”
When I called Peregrine, they were shocked to hear a request for a public relations office. The London-based Zinc office seemed similarly unprepared for public inquiry. It’s too bad, because it would be good to know why an American contractor like Peregrine at the outsetof a Ukrainian social media campaign needed to hire a call center associated with a U.S. embassy in Mexico. From Zinc, it would be nice to know identities of its social media influencers (did they “engage” Americans?). Also, what did it do for its $500,000 USAID “Pro-Vaccination Campaign” in Georgia, or its $911,613 State Department award for “social media management services for Hindi/Urdu”? What does an “information integrity” services contract entail?
I generally have sympathy for people like Zelensky. The former Soviet Union is a place where success is mostly reserved for men of violence, and anyone outside that club who manages to rise usually needs a big bag of other extraordinary qualities. But this politician allowed his persona to become just another legend “in line with U.S. foreign policy objectives,” forgetting that voters decide what those objectives are, not contractors who don’t answer the phone, or Keir Starmer, or Jens Stoltenberg, or any of a hundred other officials who think they know what wars we must support. I’m tired of being lied to about why this mess can’t get fixed and just want to move on. Is there really anyone left who doesn’t feel the same way?
Censorship Mind Control as currently practiced by the organs of the Neo Liberal Order is essentially a three-step operation. First, effectively censor dissident voices. Second, if censorship alone cannot silence effective voices then smear them to the point where no one will listen to what they say. Third, which is often run concurrent with 2 and 3, roll out the elite’s chosen narratives as related by authoritative figures; incessantly and everywhere at once. The narrative roll out is all important as it contains the untruths Big Brother wishes to implant in our minds. The “authority” in “authoritative figures” as narrators comes at the privilege of the elite of the Neo Liberal Order; judged by his/her willingness and ability to relay what he or she is told to say and write, and decidedly not by merit.
For example, the effective author and spokesman for the roll out of the Greatest Hoax of the 21st Century (see Jacob Siegel’s Invasion of the Fact Checkers) was former FBI agent Clint Watts. That he deserves that sobriquet is not my opinion. It is that of perhaps the most powerful figure in today’s entire Global Intelligence (IC) network, former CIA and NSA head and current director of Censorship Industrial Complex Operations at the Atlantic Council, Michael Hayden. Watts was the first ‘credentialed’ public promoter of the Russia scare – the crude, but effective return to 1950’ish McCarthyist Red Scare days. Fear all that is “them” (read Russian) as it secretly permeates our precious bodily fluids. Watts was the chosen narrator of the propaganda narrative that we must shut our ears and eyes to any information designated as ‘Russian”. Of course, the ugly trick was to label anything and everything that didn’t fit the Neo Liberal Order’s dozens of propaganda narratives as “Russian”. Absurd as it was, roughly fifty percent of the U.S. population went along for the ride. The once “progressive” wings of the Mainstream Media (MSM), CNBC/CNN, became literally obsessed with this mind-programming complex front man Watts. He appeared out of nowhere as the authority on all Russian Hoax matter and was omnipresent in all major government-compliant mainstream media.
What qualified Watts for this job? Was it that he was part of the failed and discredited pre-911 U.S. government anti-terror apparatus? Was it his several years of cashing in on the Security Industrial Complex cottage industry that arose after 911 in spite of the fact it was the result of the pre-911 failures of the likes of Watts? Nothing in his overt, officially listed background would seem to qualify him as a CIA storyteller, least of all on the matter of “Russian Misinformation.” And yet, having been exposed as a rank peddler of the Russia Hoax, Watts just keeps skipping from one high paying propagandist gig after another. Here is the latest, from a recent piece by William A. Jacobson (Founder of the Equal Protection Project) in the NY Post:
In another bad omen, Clint Watts, the FBI special agent and MSNBC contributor who founded the Hamilton 68 dashboard, has been hired by Microsoft to run their disinformation unit during the upcoming election.
If Hamilton 68 isn’t ringing any bells, it was the left-wing think tank notorious for accusing legitimate right-leaning accounts of being Russian bots. It pushed the false narrative of massive Russian influence that was heavily relied upon by many mainstream media outlets and possibly even swayed the 2020 election.
And now this same guy is in charge of monitoring disinformation for Microsoft during the next election. What possibly could go wrong? Everything.
With Google Jigsaw in firm Censorship Industrial Complex control, (see Mike Benz’ Google Jigsaw’s Plan to Vaccinate Your Mind) most traditional channels of communication have been seized by Big Brother leading up to election day 2024.
So, how does a backbencher security hack become an omnipresent front man for the Censorship Industrial complex? While his official biography doesn’t give a clue, his own words do. According to him, Watts’ “mentor” in the storytelling craft is the man who wrote the official record of the alleged events leading up to 911. Lawrence Wright’s The Looming Tower covered up so well for the CIA/FBI Pre-911 negligence (or treason?) that according to Watts the head of the FBI (Robert Muller, who was appointed to mop up the severe FBI/CIA post 911 PR damage) instructed supervisors like Watts to “make sure everyone gets one of these books.” And Watts eagerly complied, saying he bought “boxes” of the book and distributed them to “all my colleagues.”
Think about it – the largest law enforcement/intelligence agency in the world needs an ‘outside’ author to school its members on the most colossal failure of any government agency in world history? Why? Perhaps because the primary, glaring criticism of Wright’s book was his justification of the CIA’s withholding of critical intelligence from the FBI (and the FBI’s own serial fumbles) that clearly prevented law enforcement from foiling the well pre-broadcast 911 catastrophe? Wright’s authoritative answer to why the problems was that the CIA and FBI were overworked and underpaid. As we shall see, Wright is an expert at personalizing societal catastrophes, and elevating villains to hero status in order sell rotten New Liberal Order false narratives.
In either event, the cloying cult member like adoration a head of a major counter terrorism department directs toward a ‘citizen’ author is remarkable. That Counter Terrorism head, Watts, reminisced during a 2022 podcast that he “had the great fortune of being his (Wright’s) driver between airports and auditoriums” during his book promotional tour; and this is where his mentor schooled him on becoming a professional storyteller. Said Watts, Wright “provided much needed guidance to me.”
Coincidentally, during that same podcast Watts and Wright neatly lay the groundwork justification for the CIA and FBI to turn their outward facing powers inward toward American Citizens. While Middle Eastern terrorists pour over our Southern Border in unprecedented numbers, Wright and Watts seem to concur that intelligence and law enforcement ought instead be going after Trump supporters. According to Watts, it “is a sure thing” that domestic terrorists have “biological weapons…very much on their minds.”
Referring to Wright’s epic apologia to Anthony Fauci, Pfizer, NIH, and the Biden Administration (the book Plague Year, so chock full of since-discredited big pharma/government propaganda to warrant its own post), Watts and Wright continue to pimp government COVID-19 myths that were long-since proven phony by the time of the 2022 podcast.
Thus, Wright laments (with Watts agreeing like a bobbing head doll) that what went wrong with the pandemic and what is most crucially wrong with America today is: “What we didn’t have was the trust we needed to have in our government institutions. We just don’t rate on that scale at all.”
As this blog has detailed, these ‘love, devotion, and surrender’ (to Big Brother) demands were being made just as the Biden administration was unleashing the largest roll back in civil rights in American history. Wright said Americans are just plain backward as compared to “Angolans” and “Latvians” in their unwillingness to put full faith into government agencies, at the very moment those agencies were betraying Americans like never before.
Did Larry mean we should have dropped to our knees and demonstrated cultlike compliance to the NIH/Mainstream media’s anointed Mr. Science? The guy who was so infallible that to question him was to question science itself? The guy who is now being exposed by documents as the kingpin of perhaps the most harmful and deadly fraud ever perpetrated on the American people; this guy? See, Fauci Kingpin in Massive Cover up.
Among other things, here is what Fauci sought to cover up: Fauci Cover-up.
As we shall see, that is precisely what Big Brother narrator supreme Lawrence Wright means.
Wag the Dog definition: Wag the dog is, as a political term, the act of creating a diversion from a damaging issue usually through military force. It stems from the generic use of the term to mean a small and seemingly unimportant entity (the tail) controls a bigger, more important one (the dog). – Wikipedia
You all may recall how Joe Biden and the Neo Liberal Order machine for two years restricted Ukraine from firing into Russia the country; for fear that it would likely result in the beginning of world war III and global nuclear warfare.
With all the White House end zone dancing over the lawfare ‘victory’ against Trump this week, you may have missed this. The very day of the verdict, the White House gave Ukraine the green light to fire away within the country of Russia, with its tens of billions of dollars of gifted United States of America bombs.
This is a double-twisted wagging of the dog. The White House uses the distraction of the Trump verdict to get World War III started, the escalation of which will conveniently distract from the corruption of the Trump trial and the rest of New Liberal Order lawfare coming to light.
