“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J.

This man, making Christmas calls from the White House, believes the world is a sphere. And he has even flown around it! So has our beautiful FLOTUS, who happens to be his wife!
Truth and common sense must be valued by us, as individuals, in order to lastingly disempower the authoritarian fake news media. This includes the perniciously smarmy science media, which never answers for its errors and lies. I believe that the media has been responsible not only for leftist pathologies like scientism, medical fascism, and radical gender ideology, but also for reactionary movements like modern flat Earth, rejection of all medicine, and Biblical geological literalism.

Not a placeholder. A short selection of tidbits.
(1) AI Sydney Sweeney, bad AI political humor, and bad AI dialogue. UGH. And yet, weirdly watchable, like figures in a small-town wax museum.
(4) Science LYAHF video turns out to be good for all the wrong reasons!
This LYAHF (Let’s You And Her Fight) physics attack video, in which a rather malicious woke establishment science dude obsessively goes after Sabine Hossenfelder and Eric Weinstein, by interviewing six scientists whose fields she has snubbed, turns out to have some amazing explanations of current aspirations in physics by his less malicious and very serious guests.
Watch the attacker act like a typical MSM journalist, pushing his guests to try to get them to say what he wants them to say – that Sabine is a “fraud” and a crackpot.
Nonetheless, very worth the watch to gain an understanding of current progress in string theory, particle physics, etc.

This was brought here a long time ago by somebody – and sat in my tabs forever.
In the next two parts we take a walk back in time to the first half of the 1700’s in England and then back across the pond to the colonies. We need to establish the influence one fiery preacher of the Gospels had in both England and the colonies as well as on one B. Franklin, Printer among millions of others who heard the preaching. Yes – millions. Per numerous historical accounts George Whitefield preached to over 10 million people during his years on the planet. It is believed over 2 million people accepted Christ from his efforts during this time with most of that number within America’s population.
This discussion of Whitefield will help us better understand not only B and his personal beliefs, but establish why he and that preacher friend of his was so important to our independence and success as a nation. If you are unaware of the history and the seeds that were planted leading up to the patriot movement’s acts of rebellion, you may not grasp the full importance of what the Declaration of Independence states. Despite the anti-Christian recency bias we find today, America would not be America without Christianity. It is a cornerstone of our foundation as a nation. From the pilgrims forward it has guided our principles and approach to relations domestically as well as with the rest of the world.
George Whitefield was born in 1713 in Gloucester, England. His parents kept an inn there and he was the fifth of seven children. His father died when he was two years old. As he aged he helped his mother with the inn. Also as he grew older he discovered he had a passion for acting. However, the family had no money for him to continue his education. So he became a servitor to be able to attend the University of Oxford. This involved him becoming a servant doing simple basic living chores for staff and students there in exchange for free tuition.
George wanted to do good works and obey God, but had not yet fully understood the salvation offered by acceptance of Christ. That all changed when he read the book, The Life of God in the Soul of Man. Finally realizing he could not earn God’s favor by doing good works, he accepted Christ as his personal savior and was converted. He realized that all mankind has sinned against God’s will for us and that he needed God’s grace in the person of Jesus Christ and His sacrifice. He accepted that this righteousness of Christ was then imputed to all who believed and accepted, thereby creating a new heart and nature that willingly desired to serve God.
We hillbillies call it taking off the old coat and putting on the new. Hi there, Wolf!
After Whitefield’s conversion the Bishop of Gloucester ordained him a Deacon in the Church Of England. He began preaching one week after his ordination. He soon took to preaching the Word of God wherever the people were since the Church of England did not give him a church. He was disappointed, but it did not deter him and as a result he went to the parks and fields to reach the people who did not go to church.
Soon, America and Great Britain would never be the same again. However, there was a friend/foe relationship with another major evangelical contemporary of that period who was educated in the same university in the same general time frame as George.
John Wesley and George Whitefield
Rather than summarize this relationship, I am going to post a link below to a short story about the two. In this part I would prefer to avoid a discussion about the issue that divided them – Calvinism versus Arminianism. The truth is that I personally believe elements of both of these Christian doctrines. At that time it was an extremely divisive issue within the clergy. It drove a wedge in the relationship of Wesley and Whitefield. There are letters to each other available for review online that are heart-wrenching. One I read from Whitefield to Wesley sounds like Paul’s reproach of Peter that we read in his letter in scripture. Just know that the two reconciled late in life, basically agreeing to disagree, as should all of us who allow a dividing doctrine to infest our hearts.
The common theme of the two was that they went to the people in both England and the colonies with the intent to bring the message of salvation in Christ as well as providing for the least of these. Both were active in ministry in England prior to going to the colonies. Both were religious until experiencing a time when they found their personal hearts strangely warmed by Christ, a situation and understanding that many believers would call being born again. Both sought for all the experience of seeking Christian perfection as a life long worthy endeavor.
Being “born again” is a real thing. It happened to me.
The Fields Were Ripe For Harvest
By 1738, Whitefield felt the call to go to Georgia in the colonies to minister to orphans there after an unsuccessful, despondent Wesley returned to England at the same time. George began preaching at Christ Church in Savannah, which had been founded by Wesley previously. The Wesley brothers (John and Charles) were not all that pleased with their own results in that colony as they were met with much resistance. Whitefield felt the opposite. He embraced the people and the mission. His passion for the orphans was legendary. He solicited funds and opened three schools, one of which was for girls. He spent every available moment preaching the Word throughout the region. His bullhorn like voice could be heard a mile away, so he was very effective with outdoor assemblies where thousands would attend each time.
Seven months later he decided to return to England and arrived there months later after a very perilous voyage. Not long after arrival he was ordained a priest in the Church of England. After all he was willing to do and had accomplished he believed churches would be opened for him to preach, but the opposite was true. As a man of the people growing up in a lower status he was not welcomed in the pulpits of establishment churches. He made the best of it, preaching wherever he was welcomed. His presence was greatly appreciated when he preached in coal country where 10,000 people at a time would come to hear him speak. What an amazing sight and sound it would have been there to witness thousands standing to sing hymns and praise the Lord during the times he spoke. It was said that the singing could be heard some two miles away.
His largest successes in reaching the people came when preaching in a large, open tract of land known as the Moorfields. He set no schedule for doing so, but no matter whether he preached in the early morning or at night, thousands would come to listen and participate. One morning 20,000 came and later that evening the same day some 35,000 were there to hear him. Not all appreciated what he had to say. He once said, “I was honored with having stones, dirt, rotten eggs and pieces of dead cats thrown at me.” 😂 During one event, 80,000 people came to hear him preach 1.5 hours.
Yet, he was only 25 years old during those days. Wow.
Unfortunately his popularity with the masses disappointed the establishment and his bishop denounced him by August 1739. So, he headed back to the colonies with donations for his planned orphanages. He arrived in Philadelphia in late October and began preaching there. During the short time he was there he preached to tens of thousands of colonists at at time. It was during one of those times he first met B. Franklin, Printer.
His intent was always to return to Georgia and establish the orphan ministry there, but his next stop was New York where there was a similar response to his preaching. He stayed a short time before preaching his way down the Atlantic coast, traveling by horseback, until he finally arrived in Savannah in January 1740. He then went about building the orphanage. By September he was sailing back north to the New England area to begin preaching there. It was in this period that historians state our country’s first “great awakening” occurred.
The great American evangelist,Jonathon Edwards, had been preparing the area for revival for some time before Whitefield. When George arrived, it all broke loose. He was invited to speak by colonial governors and colleges such as Harvard. The places would become so crowded they had to turn people away. This revival lasted 1.5 years before Whitefield returned to England again. The Christian seeds had been planted that would eventually lead to our founding as a nation.
Whether you the reader personally believe in Christianity or not; this historical truth cannot be altered by those seeking to rewrite history or introduce counter narratives. The changes in mind and hearts of We the People in those days flowed into our founding documents that have governed our nation for 250 years. Within those documents We the People acknowledge God’s providence. The law itself is largely in alignment with Biblical principles. We the People of those days cut a forever deal with the Almighty. As has been proven in our nation’s history, any turning from it by leaders or We the People will result in great angst and even violence as discipline. We just need to stop being the prodigal son as a nation and start doing God’s will. Back to Whitefield…
Upon his arrival in England he learned that his friend John Wesley had turned from the Calvinistic Methodism that both embraced as younger preachers. As a result they went their separate ways. Whitefield’s base of preaching moved back to the Moorfields and a tabernacle was built, however, he traveled throughout Great Britain preaching as requested. While in Wales he met his future wife, Elizabeth, a widow. They married and had one son in 1743, who passed away as a four month old baby.
He made seven trips in total to America before passing away in Massachusetts some two hours after preaching before thousands in 1770. His words and presence always sparked an emotional response from those who heard him. Again, the response would be negative at times. There was one occasion he was beaten badly with a cane by a deranged man and other times when he was stoned both in England and in the colonies. Throughout it all he never lost his fervor for bringing God’s Word.
At this point we will conclude until next time with some of his interactions with B, a key founding father with whom he never lost contact and cared deeply about. It is now time to discuss another signer from Pennsylvania.
James Wilson
With James Wilson we have another brilliant attorney and associate justice to the Supreme Court as a founding father who served nobly only to fall victim to seeking riches in land speculation with excessive debt at the end of his life. It sounds like a familiar story with decisions and a similar fate that awaited another previous discussed founder, James Morris.
James Wilson was born in Fife, Scotland in 1742, the middle child of seven in a hard working farming family of the Presbyterian faith. His father rented the land he farmed. At age 15 he entered, studied and graduated from the University of St. Andrews. He followed that with studies at Edinburgh and Glasgow without graduating. In 1765 he emigrated to the colonies at New York in the middle of the Stamp Act controversy and soon moved to Philadelphia. He brought with him letters of introduction that enabled him to receive a job tutoring and teaching at the College of Philadelphia (Penn). While there he proceeded to study law under highly respected John Dickinson. For his work at the school he received an honorary Masters of Arts and later in life, a LL.D. Two years after arrival in 1767 he earned admission to the bar and established a law practice in Reading, PA, where he became very successful. In 1771 he married Rachel Byrd and they had six children together.
The aftermath of the Stamp Act encouraged him to deeply study the legal relationship between Great Britain and the colonies. Taxation without representation was a deal killer as far as Wilson was concerned, so he published his position on the subject. As he continued to research he concluded there was very little basis for the cause of independence for the colonists, yet, there was a recognition that all colonists were citizens of Great Britain with equal rights as residents. As a result in his view the acts Parliament took that related to the colonies were illegal due to the colonists lack of equal representation in governance in the same manner as citizens located in Great Britain.
This legal approach was utilized when the Declaration of Independence was drafted. It called out the King for misconduct as a result as we can see from the wording in the document. Wilson published this legal interpretation in 1774. What happened next is best described by this quote from the Descendants site;
Wilson’s language adopting the doctrine of popular sovereignty and natural rights foreshadowed the content of the Declaration of Independence two years later, as indicated by an early paragraph:
All men are, by nature, equal and free: no one has a right to any authority over another without his consent: all lawful government is founded on the consent of those who are subject to it: such consent was given with a view to endure and to increase the happiness of the governed, above what they could enjoy in an independent and unconnected state of nature. The consequence is that the happiness of the society is the first law of every government.
Seems we have seen that content phrased into our Declaration of Independence. But who knew James Wilson was the primary source? Not this guy.
Later in 1774, Wilson was made head of the committee of correspondence at Carlisle and was elected to the first Provincial Conference at Philadelphia. In January 1775, he was a member of the Convention of the Province and in May joined the Continental Congress. A year later in June 1776 as the Congress contemplated Richard Henry Lee’s resolution for independence, Wilson sensed the Congressional members were not yet ready for an affirmative vote as the states were split seven for and five against at that point. He voted for a delay with other key members. After more spirited discussions, three weeks later the vote was held. He, John Morton, and our boy B voted for it, which put Pennsylvania in the for independence column by a vote of 3-2.
After approval and signatures, they quickly moved toward the establishment of state constitutions. Wilson found himself on the wrong side of the issues in Pennsylvania, so he was removed from Congress in 1777. In addition to his return to the law practice, from which he assisted many loyalists, he became an advocate general for France for a handful of years. He was also involved in the formation of the Bank of North America with Robert Morris in 1780 that we addressed in that part. This bank formation provided a much needed funding source for our young nation’s treasury.
Wilson returned to Congress when conservatives assumed more power over state affairs in 1782. He served in it until 1787 when it came time for the Constitutional Convention. His wife had passed away the previous year, so all of his efforts went toward the work.
While at the Convention he played a major role as a framer of the document and was considered by many to be the most knowledgeable lawyer in the group. He was a prominent speaker in the assembly. He continued stressing his emphasis on natural rights within the proposed law. With groups opposing each other regarding election of the President by popular vote (Wilson supported) or legislative vote, Wilson proposed the Electoral College that is now used. At first the idea was rejected in favor of a legislative vote, however, those supporters could not agree on the terms. With James Madison and Gouverneur Morris as strong supporters of Wilson’s proposal, a compromise was reached in the committee incorporating an acceptable version of the Electoral College into the Constitution.
After this work Wilson was selected by Washington to be an Associate Justice on the Supreme Court in 1789. He served until his death from a stroke brought on by malaria in 1798. In 1790 he also became the first law professor in the history of the College of Philadelphia/Penn. In 1793 he married Hannah Gray. They had a child together who passed away at age three. Although Wilson claimed to be anti-slavery, he had a slave for most of his adult life. Hannah requested the man’s release and in 1794 he did so.
However, this last decade of Wilson’s life was tumultuous. He fell victim to the same temptation of Robert Morris through excessive land speculation. He owed hundreds of thousands of dollars on land deals, but would not stop buying more until he became insolvent. He was briefly jailed in debtor’s prison in New Jersey before his son paid the related debt off. He spent the last year of his life running away from other creditors and ended up dying in Edenton, NC in poverty. He was initially interred there before his remains were removed and brought back to the Christ Churchyard in Philadelphia where other founders are interred.
James Wilson as a founding father is another man who is not typically discussed. However, he left a long lasting positive imprint on our nation through his law career and particularly with the Constitution. We remain greatly appreciative of his patriotic service to our country.

God is in Control . . . and His Grace is Sufficient, so . . . Keep Looking Up
Hopefully, every Sunday, we can find something here that will build us up a little . . . give us a smile . . . and add some joy or peace, very much needed in all our lives.
“This day is holy to the Lord your God; do not mourn nor weep.” . . . “Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”
Support Israel . . . or Not?
Christians should definitely support the nation of Israel. We must remember that Israel, the nation, is very special to God. We read in Deuteronomy 7:6-8 these words: “For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession. The LORD did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples. But it was because the LORD loved you and kept the oath he swore to your forefathers that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.”
God’s eternal purpose is to bless the world through Israel. Already He has done so in measure, for “salvation is from the Jews” (John 4:22), but the fullness of future blessing is indicated in the wondrous promise of Isaiah 27:6: “In days to come Jacob will take root, Israel will bud and blossom and fill all the world with fruit.”
The declaration that “salvation is from the Jews” suggests our immeasurable debt to Israel. All that we have worth having has come to us through the Jews. Our Bible is a Jewish Book, and our Savior is a Jewish Savior. Let us never forget to pray for God’s chosen people. It is true that Israel is currently in rebellion against God because of their rejection of Christ. The nation is a secular, unbelieving (as to the claims of Scripture and their Messiah, Jesus Christ) nation; but “…at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace” (Romans 11:5). Some Jews are being saved and are becoming members of the body of Christ through faith in their Messiah.
Jews are, biblically speaking, the “chosen people of God” and dearly loved by Him. Another reason for Christians to support the nation of Israel is because of the Abrahamic Covenant. We read of God’s promise in Genesis 12:2-3, “I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you” (see also Genesis 27:29; Numbers 24:9).
From the biblical declarations of God’s love and care for His chosen people, the nation of Israel, and from the history of nations being destroyed because of their evil dealings with God’s chosen people, the Jews, Christian believers should give support to the chosen people of God. This is not to say that we necessarily support the methods they use in their relationships with the Arab nations. The Bible warned that conflict would always characterize the relations between the descendants of Isaac and Ishmael. Sadly, this conflict will continue until Jesus comes back to judge the nations and sets up His 1,000-year reign of peace on earth. We must look at the “big picture” with a biblical worldview. While we do not have to support everything Israel does as a nation, we most definitely should support Israel’s right to exist. God will fulfill His promises and covenants with Israel. God still has a plan for Israel. WOE to anyone who seeks to defeat that plan; “whoever curses you I will curse” (Genesis 12:3).
What is it that feeds our battle, yet starves our victory?
Our Turn
[Yes, I did this one just after the election. But it was too cathartic to just throw away.]
We’ve often seen that quote from David Plouffe: “It is not enough to simply beat Trump. He must be destroyed thoroughly. His kind must not rise again.”
This was of course a declaration of intent to annihilate not just Trump, but rather “his kind.”
You know what? I think we should flip it around. David Plouffe’s kind should be destroyed thoroughly and their kind must not rise again.
What is Plouffe’s kind? I suppose it depends on who’s talking and what they are thinking of in particular. Well, at the moment it’s me talking and I am thinking of the sort of maggot who is attracted to politics not to better his world but rather so that he can wield power over others, or line their pockets with “free” money. Often these people end up as what Ayn Rand called “pull peddlers,” receiving money in exchange for using their connections to do favors.
This type is parasitic. Utterly parasitic. And they should be destroyed thoroughly and not allowed to rise again.
The bad news is we will never eradicate them. Useless turds who can’t do anything productive will always be with us. As will the outright sociopaths.
Of course they find Trump to be their enemy. And of course they find us to be their enemy. If we won’t simply lie down and let our “betters” have their way with us, we’re a problem, we’re something to be got rid of. And of late, we haven’t lain down without a protest, as we are “supposed” to do. Dang uppity Garbage Deplorables! We don’t know our place!!!
The good news is we can provide far fewer niches for these parasites. The niches come into being when something that people formerly did of their own free will is taken over by the government; then every aspect of that activity becomes a political football.
Take for instance education. Since the government runs it, if you don’t like what’s being done, you have to form a political movement and try to work your way around the maggots embedded in the bureaucracy. If education were private, then if you didn’t like what they were doing to your child, you’d take your money and your child elsewhere. And people who didn’t even have school-age children presently would have no voice–and not have to pay money. Making it a government “thing” turned it into a political thing, and the maggots began to swarm.
So we wreck them by seriously cutting government and giving them fewer places to exist. Among all of the other benefits, the body politic would have fewer sociopaths and parasites in it.
People like Plouffe are the same type, but they are the full-on political hacks who set policy, rather than implement it. They’re just as bad if not worse; they help government grow, and steer it into serving its own ends, rather than those of the people it is supposed to be serving.
The Deep State is nothing more than a government that serves its own ends.
And we have had enough of this.
They must be destroyed thoroughly, and their kind must not rise again.
This election wasn’t the end, it was the beginning. There are millions of these malignancies in this country and we’ve just defeated two of them. Keep pushing. Now we can go after them wholesale.
It’s our turn.
Our turn.
Our turn.
OUR TURN!
You stole the 2020 election. You’ve mocked and ridiculed and put people in prison and broken people’s lives because you said this thing was stolen. This entire phony thing is getting swept out. Biden’s getting swept out. Kamala Harris is getting swept out. MSNBC is getting swept out. The Justice Department is getting swept out. The FBI is getting swept out. You people suck, okay?! And now you’re going to pay the price for trying to destroy this country.
And I’m going to tell you, we’re going to get to the bottom of where the 600,000 votes [are]. You manufactured them to steal this election from President Trump in 2020. And think what this country would be if we hadn’t gone through the last four years of your madness, okay? You don’t deserve any respect, you don’t deserve any empathy, and you don’t deserve any pity.
And if anybody gives it to you, it’s Donald J. Trump, because he’s got a big heart and he’s a good man. A good man that you’re still gonna try to put in prison on the 26th of this month. This is how much you people suck. Okay? You’ve destroyed his business thing. And he came back.
He came back in the greatest show of political courage, I think, in world history. Like, [Roman statesman] Cincinnatus coming back from the plough [returning to politics to rescue the Roman Republic]. He’s the American Cincinnatus. And what he has done is a profile in courage. We’ve had his back. But I got to tell you, he may be empathetic. He may have a kind heart. He may be a good man. But we’re not. Okay? And you deserve, as Natalie Winters says, not retribution, justice. But you deserve what we call rough Roman justice, and we’re prepared to give it to you.
Steve Bannon, on election night

OUR TURN!!!
January 6 Tapes?
Paging Speaker Johnson…this is your conscience calling you out on broken promises.
For all your high talk about your Christian moral background…you’re looking less and less like you have any kind of moral background.
If You are a Patriot and Don’t Loathe RINOs…
Let’s talk about RINOs, and why they are the lowest form of life in politics.
Many patriots have been involved with politics, often at the grassroots, for decades. We’ve fought, and fought, and fought and won the occasional illusory small victory.
Yet we can’t seem to win the war, even when we have BIG electoral wins.
I am reminded of something. The original Star Trek had an episode titled Day of the Dove. It was one of the better episodes from the third season, but any fan of the original series will tell you that’s a very low bar. Still, it seems to get some respect; at a time when there were about 700 episodes of Star Trek in its various incarnations out there, it was voted 99th best out of the top 100.
In sum, the plot is that an alien entity has arranged for 39 Enterprise crew, and 39 Klingons, to fight each other endlessly with swords and other muscle-powered weapons. The entity lives off of hostile emotions, you see and it wants a captive food source. (The other 400 or so Enterprise crew are trapped below decks and unable to help.) Each side has its emotions played and amplified by the alien entity; one Enterprise junior officer has false memories implanted of a brother who was killed by Klingons. The brother didn’t even exist.
Even people killed in a sword fight miraculously heal so they can go do it again.
The second best line of the episode is when Kang, the Klingon captain, notes that though they have won quite a number of small victories including capturing Engineering, can’t seem to actually finally defeat the Enterprise crew. He growls, “What power is it that feeds our battle yet starves our victory?*”
Indeed. He may have been the bad guy, but his situation should sound familiar.
We are a majority in this country. We have a powerful political party in our corner. There is endless wrangling.
And yet,
What power is it that feeds our battle yet starves our victory?
In our case, that power is the RINOs in our midst. They specialize in caving when on the verge of victory. Think of Obamacare’s repeal failing…by one Republican vote. Think of the way we can never seem to get spending under control (and now our entire tax revenue goes to pay interest on the debt; anything the government actually does now is with borrowed money).
We have a party…that refuses to do what we want it to do, and that refusal is institutionalized. If you’ve been involved with GOP politics, but haven’t seen this, it’s because you refuse to see it. Or because you are part of the problem yourself. (If so, kindly gargle some red fuming nitric acid to clear the taste of shit out of your mouth, and let those not part of the problem alone so they can read this.)
We fight to elect people, who then take a dive when in office. But it’s not just the politicians in office, it’s the people behind the scenes, the leaders of the national, state and county branches of the party. Their job is to ensure that real patriots never get onto the general election ballot. They’re allowed a few failures…who can then become token conservatives who will somehow never manage to win (Jordan), or can be compromised outright (Lauren Boebert?).
That way it doesn’t actually matter who has a congressional majority. I remember my excitement when the GOP took the Senate in 1980. But all that did was empower a bunch of “moderate” puddles of dog vomit like…well for whatever reason forty years later the most memorable name is Pete Domenici. And a couple of dozen other “moderates” who simply had no interest in doing what grassroots people in their party–those same grassroots people who had worked so hard to elect them–wanted them to do.
Oh, they’ll put up a semblance of a fight…but never win. And they love it when we fight the Dems instead of fighting them. Just like that alien entity, whose motto surely was “Let’s you and him fight. It’ll be delicious!”
If you think about it, your entire political involvement has come to nothing because of these walking malignant tumors.
That should make you good and mad.
The twenty five who blocked Jordan, and the hundred people who took that opportunity to stab Jordan in the back in the secret ballot should make you good and mad.
I’ll close this with another example of RINO backstabbing, an infuriating one close to home.
In my county, the GOP chair is not a RINO. She got elected when the grassroots had had enough of the RINOs. Unfortunately the state organization is full of RINOs, and the ousted county RINOs have been trying to form a new “Republican Party” and get the state GOP to recognize them as the affiliate. I’m honestly amazed it hasn’t happened yet.
In other words those shitstains won’t just leave when they get booted out; they’ll try to destroy what they left behind. It’s an indication that they know we know how important that behind-the-scenes party power is.
So they must be destroyed. That’s the only way they’ll ever stop.
We cannot win until the leeches “on our side” get destroyed.
What power is it that feeds our battle yet starves our victory?*
We know it. What is going to be done about it?
*NOTE: The original line was actually “What power is it that supports our battle yet starves our victory.” I had mis-remembered it as feeds. When I checked it, it sure enough was “supports” and that’s what I originally quoted. On further reflection, though, I realized my memory was actually an improvement over the reality, because feeds is a perfect contrast with starves. I changed it partway through the day this originally posted, but now (since this is a re-run) it gets rendered this way from the start.
If one must do things wrong, one should do them wrong…right.
RINOs an Endangered Species? If Only!
According to Wikipoo, et. al., the Northern White Rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum cottoni) is a critically endangered species. Apparently two females live on a wildlife preserve in Sudan, and no males are known to be alive. So basically, this species is dead as soon as the females die of old age. Presently they are watched over by armed guards 24/7.
Biologists have been trying to cross them with the other subspecies, Southern White Rhinoceroses (Rhinoceri?) without success; and some genetic analyses suggest that perhaps they aren’t two subspecies at all, but two distinct species, which would make the whole project a lot more difficult.
I should hope if the American RINO (Parasitus rectum pseudoconservativum) is ever this endangered, there will be heroic efforts not to save the species, but rather to push the remainder off a cliff. Onto punji sticks. With feces smeared on them. Failing that a good bath in red fuming nitric acid will do.
But I’m not done ranting about RINOs.
The RINOs (if they are capable of any introspection whatsoever) probably wonder why they constantly have to deal with “populist” eruptions like the Trump-led MAGA movement. That would be because the RINOs stand for absolutely nothing except for going along to get along. That allows the Left to drive the culture and politics.
I well remember 1989-1990 in my state when the RINO establishment started preaching the message that a conservative simply couldn’t win in Colorado. Never mind the fact that Reagan had won the state TWICE (in 1984 bringing in a veto-proof state house and senate with him) and GHWB had won after (falsely!) assuring everyone that a vote for him was a vote for Reagan’s third term.
This is how the RINOs function. They push, push, push the line that only a “moderate” can get elected. Stomp them when they pull that shit. Tell everyone in ear shot that that’s exactly what the Left wants you to think, and oh-by-the-way-Mister-RINO if you’re in this party selling the same message as the Left…well, whythefuckexactly are you in this party, you lying piece of rancid weasel shit?
Justice
It says “Justice” on the picture.
And I’m sure someone will post the standard joke about what the fish thinks about the situation.
But what is it?
Here’s a take, from a different context: It’s about how you do justice, not the justice that must be done to our massively corrupt government and media. You must properly identify the nature of a person, before you can do him justice.
Ayn Rand, On Justice (speaking through her character John Galt, in Atlas Shrugged):
Justice is the recognition of the fact that you cannot fake the character of men as you cannot fake the character of nature, that you must judge all men as conscientiously as you judge inanimate objects, with the same respect for truth, with the same incorruptible vision, by as pure and as rational a process of identification—that every man must be judged for what he is and treated accordingly, that just as you do not pay a higher price for a rusty chunk of scrap than for a piece of shining metal, so you do not value a rotter above a hero—that your moral appraisal is the coin paying men for their virtues or vices, and this payment demands of you as scrupulous an honor as you bring to financial transactions—that to withhold your contempt from men’s vices is an act of moral counterfeiting, and to withhold your admiration from their virtues is an act of moral embezzlement—that to place any other concern higher than justice is to devaluate your moral currency and defraud the good in favor of the evil, since only the good can lose by a default of justice and only the evil can profit—and that the bottom of the pit at the end of that road, the act of moral bankruptcy, is to punish men for their virtues and reward them for their vices, that that is the collapse to full depravity, the Black Mass of the worship of death, the dedication of your consciousness to the destruction of existence.
Ayn Rand identified seven virtues, chief among them rationality. The other six, including justice, she considered subsidiary because they are essentially different aspects and applications of rationality.
I’m sure enough of this that I put my money where my mouth is.
The 2020 election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.
Nothing else matters at this point.
This will necessarily be piecemeal, state by state, which is why I am encouraged by those states working to change their laws to alleviate the fraud both via computer and via bogus voters. If enough states do that we might end up with a working majority in Congress and that would be something Trump never really had.
Martin Luther King
When you open your heart to patriotism, there is no room for prejudice
President Donald Trump, 20 January 2017 (The “Dark” Inauguration Speech).
[NOTE: Yes, technically this is something I should delete since it’s not January 18th any more and it is dated, but I decided to give it one more run, because some things said here don’t depend on what’s showing on the page-a-day calendar.]
….But I’ll still say something about MLK. He was a decidedly mixed individual. As are we all. But I think he, and many others of his time, did something important and unpleasant; he (and those others) forced a recognition that even after the Civil War we were being hypocritical on the subject of equality under the law. Those people who descended from those who (shall we say) involuntarily migrated to what is now the United States were still getting the shitty end of the stick in many parts of this country, as a matter of law.
He was one hundred percent correct on that.
Unfortunately his successors have turned the point full circle and want a leg up from the law, supposedly to make up for the past mistreatment, but that can only lead to an endless round of back and forth. There are some signs that MLK himself had he not been killed (he would be turning 96 this year were he still alive), would have been right alongside the race baiters (which include some who were with him), other signs that he wouldn’t have.
But just as Thomas Jefferson penned these words, in spite of owning slaves, the words that eventually shamed us into abolishing the “peculiar institution”:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights…
I’ll go with what Martin Luther King said…not all that far from where the Inauguration will take place:
And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
Emphasis mine. Judge people by the content of their character.
That is as it should be.
I see that at Trump rallies. His words about opening hearts to patriotism were true.
I see nothing but reverse racism on the Left. To them the world is defined by what one group does to another, some group must be on top shitting on everyone else. And it shows. There’s a false dichotomy in their thinking. Either white shits on black, or black shits on white. The way to deal with this false dichotomy, though, is not to gin up a third “group” to make it a trichotomy, or a fourth group to make it, what, a tetrachotomy? quadrichotomy? Is either of those actually a word? Gee maybe we can have a different group on top every week of the year at least until some jackass makes up a 53rd group! (Let’s leave aside the one or two day remainder you get from dividing 365(or 6) by 7. These are leftists studying critical race theory, not mathematicians.)
How about we do something different? How about we work towards a system where the law shits on NO ONE except those who violate the rights of others?

*The SteveInCO Federal Reserve Note Suckage Index (FRNSI) is a measure of how much the dollar has inflated. It’s the ratio of the current price of gold, to the number of dollars an ounce of fine gold made up when the dollar was defined as 25.8 grains of 0.900 gold. That worked out to an ounce being $20.67+71/387 of a cent. (Note gold wasn’t worth this much back then, thus much gold was $20.67 71/387ths. It’s a subtle distinction. One ounce of gold wasn’t worth $20.67 back then, it was $20.67.) Once this ratio is computed, 1 is subtracted from it so that the number is zero when the dollar is at its proper value, indicating zero suckage.

Health Friday is a series devoted to Big Pharma, vaccines, general health, and associated topics. As today’s offering is related, in part, to the disaster of the COVID-19 “vaccines”, Yours Truly dedicates it to all persons who have contracted injures, illnesses, or disabilities, induced or aggravated by the COVID-19 “vaccines” that were injected into their bodies; and, to the memory of all persons who have passed away from the negative effects of the COVID-19 “vaccines” that were injected into their bodies.
There are Important Notifications from our host, Wolf Moon; the Rules of our late, good Wheatie; and certain caveats from Yours Truly, of which readers should be aware. They are linked here. Note: Yours Truly has checked today’s offering for any AI-generated content. To the best of her knowledge and belief, there is none, except for perhaps AI-generated images in any of the linked URLs below. If readers wish to post any AI-generated content in today’s discussion thread, they must cite their source. Thank you.
There are two sections to today’s Special Report offering: the first section, regarding the now-proven linkage of COVID-19 “vaccine boosters” to increases in cancer and in general mortality; the second section, regarding what appears to be the potential emergence of the “next plandemic” in Communist China. Please bear with Yours Truly: one does not want to “weary by recitals”, as the Duc de Saint-Simon once wrote — but there is a lot of information, multiple screenshots, and so on. The evolving knowledge regarding the disaster called COVID-19 (the virus itself, and the “vaccines”) is gaining speed with each passing day. This evolving knowledge base is important to understand in light of the developments regarding the new information about the “Chikungunya outbreak” currently in China, and which is apparently spreading to other countries (shades of the original COVID-19 virus itself outbreak in China.)
First section, the linkage between COVID-19 “booster vaccines” with increases in cancer and in general mortality. COVID-19 “vaccine boosters” means any injection of a “latest version” of a COVID-19 “vaccine.” This includes the FDA- approved 2025-2026 “new formula COVID-19 vaccine versions” of the Pfizer-BioNTech modRNA COVID-19 “vaccine”, COMIRNATY; of the Moderna modRNA COVID-19 “vaccine”, SPIKEVAX; and, of the Novavax COVID-19 “vaccine”, NUVAXOVID.
Yours Truly begins here: https://slaynews.com/news/renowned-oncologist-sounds-alarm-cancer-deaths-now-surging-among-covid-boosted/, “Renowned Oncologist Sounds Alarm: Cancer Deaths Are Now Surging Among Covid-Boosted”, by Frank Bergman, 6 August 2025. There is an embedded video statement by Prof. Dr. Angus Dalgleish (St. George’s, University of London.) Dr. Dalgleish warns, in no uncertain terms, that it is the suppression of T-cell immune cells in the body of the COVID-19 “vaccine boosted” that is causing the surge of cancer among these persons. Please see the screenshot from the Slay News article, below:
The paper referenced above is here: https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-6899448/v2, “Factors contributing to the sharp rise in excess mortality in Japan since 2021”, Atsushi Takahashi, 17 July 2025. This paper is a pre-print. Please see the screenshots from this paper, below. They are: portions of the Results section; Figure 4; and, Figure 9:
The identifier names are those of the Prefectures in Japan that were studied. Even with taking other factors into consideration (examples: the size and population of the various Prefectures; the number of adults in age brackets in the Prefectures; whether or not a Prefecture was “rural” in character and location, as compared to “urban”), it is clear that the increase in mortality is tied to an increased amount of COVID-19 “vaccine boosters” that were administered.
The peer-reviewed paper on the Japan study is here: https://doi.org/10.3390/cancers17122006, “Repeated COVID-19 Vaccination as a Poor Prognostic Factor in Pancreatic Cancer: A Retrospective, Single-Center Cohort Study”, Makoto Abue, et al., 16 June 2025.
Yours Truly has written extensively for the board here regarding the damage / destruction of the natural immune system of the person who takes COVID-19 “vaccines.” These injectables were designed to attack, damage / destroy the CD4 – CD8 immune system cells. These injectables were designed to attack, damage / destroy the IgG3 immune system “fighter” cells, while at the same time, fostering the increase of IgG4 immune system “tolerate and never clear” cells. This damage / destruction increases with each injection of a modRNA COVID-19 “vaccine”, including injections of the “latest formula version” of said “vaccines”, which includes the “2025-2026 Formula versions” of said “vaccines” (COMIRNATY [Pfizer-BioNTech]; SPIKEVAX [Moderna]; and, NUVAXOVID[Novavax.])
The “Seneff and Nigh” paper of 10 May 2021 discusses how “immune system imprinting” in the the body of persons who take the COVID-19 “vaccines” have the potential to result in what the authors call “unintended consequences.” The paper is available here: https://dpbh.nv.gov/uploadedFiles/dpbhnvgov/content/Boards/BOH/Meetings/2021/SENEFF-1.PDF, “Worse Than the Disease? Reviewing Some Possible Unintended Consequences of the mRNA Vaccines Against COVID-19”, Stephanie Seneff and Greg Nigh; International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research 2(1), May 10, 2021, Page 38-79. Please see the screenshots from this article, below. They are: the Abstract; the “Unprecedented” box; and, Figure 2.
Second section, regarding the potential for the “next plandemic” to come from Communist China. This has to do with the current emergence of mosquito-borne Chikungunya infections in several areas of China, which has resulted in various government-enforced measures. There is also an ** interesting connection ** to the United States involved in this situation.
What is Chikungunya? It is a virus transmitted by the bite of an infected female mosquito of (usually) the Aedes aegypti or the Aedes albopictus species. (As an aside: female mosquitos of these species can also transmit Dengue fever via bites.) The virus that is transmitted causes joint pain and fever; these can progress to severe. Most people infected with Chikungunya, however, make a full recovery. The virus is an RNA alphavirus. Please see: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/25083-chikungunya; there is a screenshot from this article, below:
Two recent articles regarding the Chikungunya outbreak in China: the first, here: https://jessicar.substack.com/p/the-new-pending-plandemic-is-it-scheduled, “The new pending “plandemic” — is it scheduled for November?”, by Jessica Rose, PhD, 12 August 2025. Dr. Rose makes it clear that the “alphavirus + saRNA-LNP platform” (self-amplifying RNA + lipid nanoparticles “vaccine” platform) is based on the VEEV alphavirus (Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis Virus.) Please see the screenshots from her article, below:
**** Note the mention of immune system issues that are induced in persons who are COVID-19 “vaccinated”, and how this can potentially severely complicate any infection by Chikungunya.
The second article is here: https://www.2ndsmartestguyintheworld.com/psyop-25-scamdemic-update-chinese, “PSYOP-25 SCAMDEMIC UPDATE: Chinese Authorities Mandating Blood Tests, Releasing Lab Mosquitoes to Fight Chikungunya Outbreak”, 13 August 2025. Please see the screenshots from this article, below:
The founder of the “mosquito lab” in Guangzhou is Dr. Zhiyong Xi. Please see the screenshot below from the above link:
Which work, at least in part, is being funded by NIAID (division of NIH — both divisions part of HHS.)
Which begs the following questions: WHY is Dr. Zhiyong XI still doing mosquito research in the United States if he founded a mosquito study lab in Communist China? WHY is Dr. Zhiyong Xi’s research at Michigan State University being funded, at least in part, by the NIH / NIAID?
There are two “FDA-approved vaccines” against Chikungunya: IXCHIQ, and VIMKUNYA. BOTH of these “vaccines” were FDA-approved under “accelerated approval” methods. Please see the screenshots, below, from the Package Inserts for these injectables. First, from the Package Insert for IXCHIQ (https://ixchiqhcp.com/PI-new.pdf):
Note the presence of Aluminum Hydroxide as an adjuvant in VIMKUNYA.
NOTE THAT THE “EXACT MECHANISM OF PROTECTION’ HAS NOT BEEN DETERMINED FOR EITHER IXCHIQ OR FOR VIMKUNYA. In other words, the United States government (via the FDA) is fine with injecting people with these “vaccines” WITHOUT THE FDA KNOWING THE EXACT MECHANISMS OF PROTECTION FOR EITHER OF THEM. What are the “CHIKV-specific immune responses” that these injectables supposedly elicit?
And, by the way, both IXCHIQ and VIMKUNYA can be “shed” onto newborn children if the expectant mother is sick with a virus (this is called viremia) at the time of delivery. A pregnant female who takes either one of the above “vaccines” runs the risk of contracting “viral viremia.” Neither IXCHIQ, nor VIMKUNYA have had proper testing for potential effects on pregnant females, their fetuses, or their newborns (section 8.1 Pregnancy in either Package Insert.)
All of the above begs the following questions: Does HHS Sec. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., know about these Chikujgunya “vaccines”? Does he know that the FDA approved them under “accelerated approval” methods? Does he understand that the FDA does NOT know the “exact mechanism of protection” for either IXCHIQ or VIMKUNYA? Does Dr. Martin Makary (FDA Commissioner) know about this situation? Do either Sec. Kennedy, Jr., or Dr. Makary know that “career FDA types” in the CBER division signed the FDA Approval Letters for IXCHIQ (signed by R. Douglas Pratt, MD, 6 August 2025) and for VIMKUNYA (signed by David C. Kaslow, MD, 14 February 2025)?
Yours Truly will again emphasize that it is critically important for all persons, whether COVID-19 “vaccinated” or not, to follow some type of COVID-19 spike protein mitigation / prophylaxis protocol. It is also critically important that all persons, whether COVID-19 “vaccinated” or not, to do all they can to build and maintain their general health, and the health of their immune system, so as to be in the best shape possible.
This man, making Christmas calls from the White House, believes the world is a sphere. And he has even flown around it! So has our beautiful FLOTUS, who happens to be his wife!
Truth and common sense must be valued by us, as individuals, in order to lastingly disempower the authoritarian fake news media. This includes the perniciously smarmy science media, which never answers for its errors and lies. I believe that the media has been responsible not only for leftist pathologies like scientism, medical fascism, and radical gender ideology, but also for reactionary movements like modern flat Earth, rejection of all medicine, and Biblical geological literalism.
Just as Wheatie’s Stormwatch Monday Open Thread was created as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions, so, too, is this Thank God Thursday Open Thread, where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This thread is also to be known as Theistic Evolution Thursdays, due to the author’s expected “pontification” about his scientific, religious, and political opinions. You are welcome to pontificate back! Free speech matters!
Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their communally protected lies for actual truth.
The source of alleged truth matters, not for the truth itself, but for validation.
And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.
And that’s it. We’re done stealing from Wheatie.
OK – maybe her rules need to be posted.
No food fights.
No running with scissors.
If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
Other rules may be derivable from these, and that conjecture is left for discussion.
If there is nothing beyond the “W” below, then this is a placeholder. For health reasons, I can’t always post a timely opinion before each Thursday, but I will try. Otherwise, you have this placeholder post, where YOU provide the content. Enjoy!

I am going to cover three Operation Gladio videos. I consider them very important because they show how the Criminal Cartel creates the false reality we are now living in. These videos also make a good case that President Trump has been the target of a Gladio Operation since he came down the elevator. I know this is a long article and these three videos are long. However they are very important. Q was not kidding when he talked about the 16 year plan to destroy the USA.
For the first two videos I am just going to point out a few items. They provide more indepth info than the Redacted video.
In this video Alpha & the Colonel bring the actual documents backing up what she says in the Redacted Operation Gladio primer. For example @ 1:05:00 they show the declassified documents that contain the actual USA Gladio stay-behind manual (FM31-21A from 1961) stamped for use by US Police Departments and National Guard Units. Chapters 7 – 9 reproduced verbatim EU Gladio Handbooks. There is also a syllabus. They are basically a copy of the Italian Gladio Field Manual #2 for use INSIDE THE USA!
They go thru the PEOPLE and how they are all connected and what actions they take. Well worth a listen. They also discuss Operation Garden Plot Wiki. Alpha, as a former police officer tells of his brush with this mess @ 1:10:00
Colonel: THE CIA MAKES ‘INTELLIGENCE’ UP TO JUSTIFY THE END STATE. [Desired outcome.]They do not nor have they ever actually generated REAL intelligence. They CRAFT intelligence for an end state. [For example Russiagate.]
In this second video, they build upon the information in the first and show how Ruby Ridge, Waco TX & the Oklahoma Bombing are related via the SAME actors and then go on to 9-11, the Vegas & Walmart Massacres and then Jan 6th. So yes, Operation Gladio is ALIVE AND ACTIVE IN THE USA.
14 minutes & 1:40:00 Ruby Ridge (Gun Owners), Waco TX (White Christians) & the Oklahoma Bombing (Veterans as Domestic Terrorists) All were False flags & you needed all three of those elements in order to pass the legislation that gets passed the next year in 1996. On the Anniversary of the Oklahoma Bombing, Clinton signs the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act (AEDPA) (See Link) She then goes thru the list of FBI & DOJ personnel that overlap in all three False Flags. As well as tactical agents (snipers & such) and Informants.
1:40:35 FBI asked Randy Weaver to be an informant on the “White Nationalists” in Idaho. He said NO! Then they tried to set him up on gun charges to force him to be an informant. he said NO! So the nasty SOBs shot his wife and child in retaliation.
1:46:40 — 1:47:30 DOJ person in charge of National Security Division who was overseeing all of this was Assistant Attorney General for Intelligence Policy & Review, Frank Hunger. He signed off FBI firearm raid warrants, electronic wire taps requests & classified counter terrorism operations for all three. [includes more on this guy including a FISA for WACO.]

I have taken the youtube transcript, cleaned it up and added links and some reference materials. I am not putting the entire transcript in quotes. The time stamps will serve instead. My comments and additions are in brackets. Outside sources are linked and in quotes.
TRANSCRIPT:
1:00: Clayton Morris:Operation GladioWAS a Cold War-era NATO program that set up secret stay-behind armies across Europe. [At this point he does not realize these units are still alive and well AND the ‘Communist Threat’ propaganda was just a news talking point to cover up the over throw of governments that resisted the rape of their country by the transnational corporations.] Now it was originally intended, of course, to resist the Soviet invasion of these countries. But evidence later suggested, documents released a few decades ago that these units carried out false flag attacks, political manipulation, basically terrorist attacks as false flag attacks, raising serious questions about western covert operations. But this has been largely kept in the dark. But somebody who’s been on top of this story, has been exposing the lengths that Opweration Gladio went is Colonel Roxine Towner-Watkins.
0:40: He introduces Colonel Towner and NATO’s Operation Gladio.
2:30: Clayton Morris: What is Operation Gladio at its heart? Who put it in place? What years are we talking about? And what are the tentacles that reach into different parts of the US military?
2:30: Colonel Towner: So, if if I could step back in time prior to World War II, what I have I’ve read now over a hundred books that deal specifically with Operation Gladio. I had prior to this research project about 600 books in my library. All of them are non-fiction, military, general, biographies, state department. So, I had a very wide knowledge base and I stumbled across a couple of books um a trilogy by Anthony Sutton which talked about 👉the same group of oligarchs and bankers that funded the Bolshevik revolution, Hitler’s rise to power and FDR’s campaign👈 which again I had never learned in any of my education. And I felt that that was fairly intriguing.
3:50: And one of the reference in the footnotes was a book called The Third Way. And Joseph Ferrell talks about this manipulation of mass[es of] people to believe that there’s, and I’m going to use their terminology, a Left and a Right. And the Bolshevik Revolution gave us the left, i.e. communism. and Hitler gave us the right. And those two power structures have been used to create a third wave which kind of pushed people all over the world into the proverbial cattle cars to their own slaughter. I found this theory fascinating. Well,
4:30: In Joseph Frell book,he mentioned stay-behinds and he did it in a military context, which again, as a career military officer, I found fascinating because I’d never even heard the term. And so I began just look doing searches on the internet about staybehinds. I was dumbfounded at how much has been written about them by different authors.
5:00: So over the course of the last two and a half years, kind of if I could put it all in a nutshell so every one’s brain can wrap their head around it, what you had prior to World War II was a power structure of oligarchical com uh companies that had their own built-in paramilitary and intelligence functions. We knew them as like the British East and West Indies um and the Dutch East and West Indies, but they went around the world colonizing countries using their own intelligence and paramilitary. But after World War II, the entire globe put those functions in governments. So you have this intel intelligence apparatus that was set up after World War II. We created the CIA. West Germany created the BND. Korea um set up the KCIA. And they’re they’re all across the globe.
6:00: They were all trained and coordinated to operate together. There’s lots of names, but obviously Allan Dulles’s name comes up often in this network. On the military side, basically the same thing happened. So these oligarchs have outsourced something off their balance sheet to the taxpayers around the world.
6:40: What you find today is through the 1990s with the fall of the Soviet Union, a lot of that capability has been outsourced. [from the government to hide their actions from Congress & FOIA -GC] For example, the CIA has lots of independent intelligence fronts doing this work and the military has outsourced a lot of their functionality to contractors like Hallebertton and Blackwater in its current state. So you have if you start now tracing those outsourced entities back, you find the same oligarchs. So not only did they off book all of their operations to us taxpayers, we’re still footing the dime, but they’re getting rich off of these contracted out sources….
7:30:So they’re profiting off of the overthrows of governments. And they’re doing that to take the resources that they took as colonial powers while making it look like they’re saving the world from this boogeyman called communism or this boogeyman called Hitler or whatever. And that was the hardest part for me to wrap my head around. But that is what we’re looking at.
8:00:Clayton Morris: So just so I can understand exactly, the idea is the governments were offloading these operations to these stand behind armies that were really third party defense, you know, contractors, blackwater, etc. to basically rape and pillage the land, steal resources, but they get to do it under a third party, sort of an NGO rather than direct US military. This is still in existence today. We can see it in Somalia. We can see it in Syria. We’re there protecting Syria’s oil fields, right? We’re there to protect the Syrian people and their oil from themselves, right? So, this is still happening today, right? It is still happening today. So now that you have that picture in your mind, 👉It’s important to understand their mantra is to create chaos so they can control.👈
9:00: And my my wonderful husband who puts up with me doing all of this research, because I spend about 12 hours a day doing it. Um came in one day and he said, “Hey, do you remember that TV show we used to watch called Get Smart?” And I said, ‘Yeah.’ And he goes, “Well, do you remember what the name of the two organizations were?” And I said, “No.” And he said, “It was called Chaos and Control.” And I looked at him and I went, “Oh my god.” Because that is exactly what they do. They go in and create chaos with these stay-behind units, which I call terrorist organizations, and just as you did. And it is done to control the people in that particular area so that these oligarch vultures can come in and monopolize the resources.
10:00: So going back to the beginning there was a secret meeting that most people have never even heard of called Operation Sunrise. It was conducted before the World War II was even over and the main players on the US side were Allan Dulles and a man by the name of Major General Lyman Limitsker. I like to tell the story of Operation Gladio through the use of people because the same people keep coming up over and over again.
Clayton Morris: Please can you, for our audience, if they’re not familiar with Alan Dulles, can maybe you just briefly explain who he is?
Colonel Towner: So Allan Dulles is one of the elites from the northeast. His brother John Foster Dulles was Eisenhower’s Secretary of State. Allan Dulles was the CIA director. They worked for a law firm called Sullivan and Cromwell. Sullivan and Cromwell’s famous clients were many of these oligarchs that I’m talking about. Sullivan and Cromwell was instrumental in the United States taking over the rest of the building of the Panama Canal from France. There was some slight of hand because we were actually in the middle of building a Nicaraguan canal and this French company went bankrupt that had the charter to build the Panama Canal. Through some slight of hand, John Foster Dallas, on behalf of Sullivan and Cromwell, was deployed to Paris to take up that mantra. It’s a long story but it ended up with the United States taking over the rest of the building of the Panama Canal. And most people don’t even know that it started off as a French project. And they used French colonial slaves from Africa to do the work for the first 40% of the Panama Canal. Alan Dulles also worked at this same law firm. So they represent the interests of these oligarchs.
12:15: Now think about that for a second. In Eisenhower’s administration, you have one of the premier lawyers as your secretary of state for these oligarchs and the other guy is sitting as the CIA director. Do you think they’re working on behalf of the United States? No!They’re working on behalf of their clients, which is not the United States. It is these oligarchs. And you find that time and time again between the CIA and the Secretary of State.
You have, I think it’s like nine, either number two or number one at the Secretary of State that are from the Skull and Bone Secret Society at Yale. They go to Groten, a grooming school. They go to Yale. Then they end up at Harvard Law and then they go into the government. They don’t work for us. They work for these oligarchs.
Clayton Morris:The same Skull and Bones of course that George W. Bush was a part of, John Kerry was a part of this secret system.
Colone Towner: And where did John Kerry end up at? — the Secretary of State Where did George H. W. Bush end up? At the CIA.
Clayton Morris: And George W. Bush, who was also a member, president of the United States.
Colone Towner: It’s a pattern that keeps repeating itself.
13:30 Clayton Morris: So how widespread then would you say were Gladio’s stay-behind networks across NATO l and NATO countries and how involved was the US in their coordination? So we think of NATO after World War II all across Europe these armies sort of set up and structured how involved was the US in this disbursement and how widespread was it? What we talking thousands of people?
14:00: Colonel Towner: You’re talking tens of thousands of people, if not hundreds of thousands of people. So, let me go back to Operation Sunrise because it’s critical people understand why we ratlined Nazis out of Germany. It wasn’t just because of Operation Paperclip. They went all over the world, not just to the United States. This meeting with Alan Dulles and Lyman Lemnitzer was with a particular Nazi general by the last name of Wolff. That’s important because stay-behind units originally were called werwolf units in Germany under Hitler.
In Turkey today, they’re called greywolf units. That is another common denominator. So these werwolf units, as Hitler pushed into the Soviet Union, they were set up in Ukraine, which we still see today. Because the Ukrainian Nazi symbolism is directly related back to Bandera and Lebed and several other Nazis that were personally trained by Otto Scorzini who worked for both Reinhardt Galen and General Wolff. So the seeds of what we’re seeing in Ukraine today were bore out of these stay-behind units.
15:25: So Operation Sunrise was so important that basically Wolff bought his ,Galen’s and Otto Scorzini’s freedom out of either not being prosecuted at Nuremberg , –because Wolff and Galen was not and Otto Scorzeny stood trial, but he was found not guilty. Now this is a guy who trained all of the stay-behind Werwolf units in Nazi Germany. [Note that the CIA run WIKI down plays the werwolf units asserting historians say“ that the plan barely existed.” Google diverts the search to Werewolf. – GC] So in the aftermath of that [WWII] they flew Reinhardt Galen — and keep in mind he becomes the de-Nazified West Germany’s Allen Dulles counterpart at the what they call the BND — So he is in charge of their spy organization and Allan Dulles becomes in charge of the CIA. And they both orchestrated the spreading of the stay-behind units all over the world.
was an Austrian-born German SS-Standartenführer in the Waffen-SSduring World War II. …he was charged in 1947 at the Dachau Military Tribunal.. He was allegedly an advisor to Argentinian president Juan Perón.[2][3] Skorzeny acted as an agent of Mossad, allegedly assisting with the execution of actions such as Operation Diamond….
…
16:15: I found them in Iran when we overthrew Mohammad Mosaddegh in 1953. They were in Guatemala when we overthrew that government, the year after Operation Condor. Operation Condor is kind of the kissing cousin of Gladio in Latin America. They were scattered throughout all of Latin America. They’re all over Africa. They were all over Asia.
Clayton Morris: Who are these people though? Are they American soldiers?
Colonel Towner: They are the people that were scattered in all of these disparate places. So the concept was to take normal everyday citizens in a country. and I’ll specifically talk about Italy because as you mentioned in 1990 Italy was the only one that did an in-depth investigation. That’s the reason why this entire network is now referred to as Operation Gladio. Every country called it something else like in Portugal they called it Aginter Press and I mentioned Turkey they called it Greywolves.
17:15: The French version was OAS [Organisation armée secrète ]. So they all had different names, but they’ve now all generically been called Operation Gladio because Italy was the only one that did an in-depth investigation. In Italy, what they did to recruit these people is they went into towns and there were like 15 people. They were given caches of weapons to include rifles, C4 explosives, communication equipment and money. [The Caches] they were buried in normally a wooded area so that when they got the call they could fall in on this cache of weapons and do whatever the mission was. And as you said the majority — all of the missions not the majority ALL of the missions were domestic terrorism.
18:10: And the only two people that the SDECE, which was the organization in Italy, just call it their central intelligence, their version of the CIA. The only two people of those 15 member units that they knew was the leader and the assistant leader. They didn’t know any of the names of the other citizens, and that’s why they called them werwolf units. They were citizens by day and killers by night. And the there was there were thousands of these units all over Italy. And this same thing, as a matter of fact, William Colby, a future CIA director, set them up in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. You know, Sweden, the “neutral” country? They were everywhere.
19:00: Clayton Morris: So, they were given money. So, I mean, I guess I’m just trying to understand the motivation of these people. In the same way that we see today when you have these like Bernie Sanders rallies and the whatever, patriot rallies they had back in this early part of the summer. We know that through George Soros funded groups, they were given hundreds of dollars, thousands of dollars. Any of these protesters that want to come out and be agitators, they’re paid. Paid. We know this from Tik Tok influencers and others. So, what’s the motivation? Is it really just at the heart money or were they real were they somehow patriots in a way that we just didn’t understand?
19:30: Colonel Towner: I don’t know. A lot of people have been, and I can draw the analogy back then. There were a lot of people that were genuinely scared about the communists. I certainly was. I went through the drills of getting under my desk when I was a little kid. We were all taught that the communists any day was going to come across the Bulgar Gap [Iskar Gorge?} in Europe and annihilate everybody. But if you think back to 1948, the Soviet Unions had over 50 million people killed. Most of their industrial base had been destroyed. And the thought that there was a communist threat at the time is literally ridiculous. Not to say that communism is good or anything else. And yes, there was later on a Soviet threat, but not at the time this entire operation was being set up. So you go into a community who had just been ruled by Mussolini, a fascist dictator for decades. You tell them that there is this new boogeyman in town, and they’re much worse than Mussolini. They’re atheists. They’re going to destroy the Catholic Church, which of course is sacred in Italy. So, it wouldn’t be hard to find people who are patriots to volunteer to protect their town from this imminent threat. But again, that was never the intended purpose.
21:15: It’s not unlike the brainwashing that is going on with the propaganda in the United States right now, calling Trump a fascist. It is literally the same playbook. And they did this in country after country after country. And generally in every one of those countries, there was some resource that they wanted.
21:27: Indonesia: We went into Indonesia. We tried to coup the government of Sukarno and failed. Then we regrouped and overthrew that government a few years later because there were two resources there that both the Rockefeller family and the Dutch Royal Petroleum [Shell Oil] knew was there that they had never told the Indonesian people was there. There was a mountian, a literal mountain full of gold, the purest gold they had ever found and an untapped oil reserve that they kept secret. And in both of those cases, after they overthrew the government of Sukarno and installed their puppet government of Suharto, the Rockefellers and the
Dutch oil [Shell Oil] went in there and basically, again, it’s a long story, but they basically stole a lot of that by saying, “Oh, it’s not that pure.” Either the oil or the gold, and lied on what they were remitting back as the royalties to the Indonesian people. And that’s after they killed a million of them in the coup.
22:40: Clayton Morris: 👉So [in] all of these instances where Operation Gladio was set up, it’s because of some sort of a resource, a mineral resource or something in that country.👈 👉They used communism as the boogeyman,👈 the Soviets are going to invade Indonesia. They’re going to take over this territory. They’re going to come to Sukarno. They’re going to take over this territory. They’re coming to Italy next. And so we need to have these armies created, a sort of a militia if you will
23:06: Colonel Towner: Correct.
Clayton Morris: What was their mission then? So in the case of Italy I mentioned Bolognia. Maybe you could talk a little bit about some of these terrorist activities that created these false flag events.
23:17: Colonel Towner: Well originally their first operation in Italy was in 1948. It was the
election. There were two people running that were kind of the odds on favorite of being the prime minister and one of them was very pro- NATO. Oh my god, we got to get a NATO. One of them again because of Mussolini did not want to have anything to do with NATO. They wanted their country back. Of course that person is labeled a communist sympathizer. And the CIA used $10 million in 1948, $10 million to influence that election to ensure the pro-NATO guy got involved.
24:00: That was their first official interference in elections. It wasn’t their last, but it was their first. And that that’s the entire time that we’ve been talking about election interference. To me, it has been blatantly obvious both with the 1916 election and the 2020 election that the CIA is behind both of them. If you look at where Gina Haspel was as the London CIA station chief with the creation of the Steel Dossier, they are still intimately involved in election interference all around the world.
24:50: Clayton Morris: So would you say Operation Gladio is still alive and well today, just under a different name?
Colonel Towner:100%. That’s why I think it’s critical that people understand not only it and how it functioned early on.
25:00: Let’s go back to Lyman Lemnitzer [& Wikispooksnotes-GC] because with the JFK files you don’t hear anyone talking about this, but now that you understand the massive scope of Operation Gladio.
Lyman Lemnitzer was General Eisenhower chief of logistics in Europe. What’s that mean? Logistics in the military means that’s the guy that’s critical to get supplies where they’re needed. So, who would have been getting all of the weapons in Europe, now that the war is over, to these caches of weapons for Operation Gladio. It would have been General Lyman Lemnitzer. That’s why he’s
at this meeting [Operation Sunrise] in order to not only understand where all of the caches are that the Nazis set up, but they’re [NATO is] planning to put them all over Europe. So, he’s the logistics guy and he’s the guy that goes with Alan Dulles to this meeting.
26:00: Now, where’s the next time that we come to Lyman Limiter? Well, he ends up becoming a four-star general and he’s the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff when JFK gets into office. Lyman Lemnitzer knows all about Operation Gladio. He’s the author of Operations Northwood. Do you know what that is?
26:20:Clayton Morris:I do, but can you educate our audience on this?
Colonel Towner: Operation Northwood was a document that is declassified, several pages. What it is, it is a laundry list of terrorist operations to be conducted inside the United States, killing American citizens and blaming Castro. It articulates that we’re going to dress Cuban exiles that are basically our Gladio elements, in the United States and were for decades. — Brigade 256.
Felix Rodriguez, the guy that Tucker interviewed about six months ago, he’s an assassin. He was part of Brigade 256. If you go back and look at that interview, he’s wearing the t-shirt, literally. And he was in El Salvador. He was in Nicaragua. He was in Guatemala. He was in Vietnam during the Phoenix program. He is one of them.
So this Operation Northwood was to take some of the CIA trained Cuban exiles in Miami, dress them up in Castro uniforms, have them go do bombings just like we were talking about in Italy. killing people, blaming Castro, and then justifying a full-scale military invasion of Cuba in order to overthrow Castro. That’s what Operation Northwood was. He briefed it to Robert S. McNamara, the Secretary of Defense and Robert McNamara didn’t find anything wrong with it. He said, “Hey, let’s go brief this to JFK.” When JFK read Operation Gladio, he’s like, “Are you out of your mind? We’re not going to kill Americans for any reason.” So, he fired General Lemnitzer. Unfortunately, and this clearly indicates to me that JFK did not know the extent of Operation Gladio, and this hydra that had been set up. He had just survived the Bay of Pigs and didn’t want any more military pissed off at him. So, he didn’t fire, fire him and make him retire. He reassigned him out of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
28:30: And do you know where they put him?
Clayton Morris: No.
Colonel Towner: He became the commander of NATO.
And do you know that the French OAS [Organisation armée secrète ] that were trained by Operation Gladio trainer Otto Skorzeny, a Nazi [former Nazi officer. -GC] Their OAS had two, depending on who you read, some people say four operatives in Dallas, Texas the day JFK was murdered.
There are documents talking about people speaking French up on the grassy knoll. Those two OAS agents, one was flown out of Dallas that night, the other one was driven by a Dallas police officer to the Mexican border.
29:10: Clayton Morris:The more you, you know. The more you study JFK and you realize how many people he pissed off, right? It’s not surprising at all that you have the mafia involved, you have you have, the Israelis involved, you have the CIA involved, members of NATO involved who trying to upend Operation Gladio. He pissed a lot of people off.
Colonel Towner: Yes. And he also was in direct contact with Sukarno over in Indonesia and had already scheduled a visit to see him in January 1964. They knew that if he ever went to see Sukarno and figured out what they were doing that they would all be in trouble. So that meeting was never going to be allowed to happen.
30:10: A lot of people think General Eisenhower was a great guy. Let let me just assure you, he was not. Not only did he oversee the creation of Operation Gladio while he was in Europe, when he becomes president, he’s the guy that overthrew Iran, he’s the guy that used this organization to overthrow the president in Guatemala. And what was the issue in Guatemala? Bananas. who owned all of the Guatemalan farmland. [ United Fruit now Chiquita] You know that thing that we think is absolutely horrible if China owns our farmland. Well, a US oligarch owned the majority of Guatemalan’s farmland and that was United Fruit. And one of the primary stockholders of United Fruit was the Dallas brothers and the Rockefellers. And so they decided when Guatemalan president gets elected he said that he did not want any foreigners owning farmland. Imagine that. And the irony of everything that’s happening right now just blows my mind. Because what’s happening in America today is what our government has done on behalf of these oligarchs all over the world.
Painting by Diego Rivera, “Gloriosa Victoria,” tells the story of the 1954 overthrow of the democratically-elected Jacobo Arbenz government. Coup Colonel Carlos Castillo Armas greets secretary of state John Foster Dulles, who holds a bomb with the face of Eisenhower, surrounded by people who were murdered in the coup. To his left is U.S. ambassador John Peurifoy with military officers and CIA director Allen W. Dulles whispering in his brother’s ear. On the right, the archbishop of Guatemala, Mariano Rossell Arellano, blesses the act, while Guatemalans protest.
So what do they do? They planned Operation PBSuccess which was the name of the operation to overthrow the Guatemalan president and that was [blessed by] General Eisenhower. Also, one of the very last things he [Eisenhower] did was issue a findings ,which is what it’s called when you order the assassination of a foreign head of state, to kill Patrice Lumumba [first prime minister of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.] They killed Patrice Lumumba three days before JFK came into office. JFK was in office for at least three weeks before he knew that his CIA was complicit in killing Lumumba. He didn’t even know he was dead because they had kidnapped him. And how did they do that? What was the lead-up to that? Well, the Congo had uranium. They were the number one supplier of uranium. Uranium obviously was very important at the time because of the atomic weapons. The Congo had just gotten its independence from being a colony of Belgium for 350 years.
Patrice Lumumba, their first prime minister had said, “We do not want Belgium to continue to get rich off of our uranium. We want to deal directly with the United States. He flies to the United States and the vice president [Nixon] will not meet him. Eisenhower will not meet him. So he’s stuck going to see the Secretary of State [Christian Herter.] And he tells the secretary of state, “I’ll sell you 100% of our uranium, but I don’t want
Belgium profiting from it.” They told him to pound sand. And he goes back and he says, “Okay, well, if you’re not going to deal with me, I I know now that I’ve made this very clear and you made it very clear that you don’t like my stance on this. Um, the IMF is immediately turned off. The World Bank won’t talk to him. So, they economically strangle him and he has only one option to get weapons for what he knows is going to come. The only person that at that point will answer his phone is the Soviet Union.
What happens as soon as that phone call is made? They call him a communist. He’s not a communist. But because they call him a communist, — it started with Truman actually, 10-2, a national security action memorandum says if you are labeled a communist, we have the right to kill you — And so Eisenhower issues a finding to kill Lumumba.
JFK didn’t know about this. And you know, we all know that that four months from the time you’re a president-elect until you take um office that you are supposed to be being updated with intelligence briefings of what you’re walking into. He knew nothing about it.
34:30: Clayton Morris:This Mumba story, we’ve covered this before on our show and all of the secrecy around it and not allowing JFK to be aware of this um in the leadup to his presidency that this was carried out. There’s some I think there was some speculation that he did know about it or he was somehow briefed on it or whatever. but I have not seen anything conclusive on that. So you haven’t either then right?
Colonel Towner: I have not seen anything that he was briefed on it. I have seen statements from CIA officers that says he was not.
…the Belgian rule of the Congo was marked by brutality. About 10 million Congolese people were killed during King Leopold’s reign alone — which lasted from 1885 to 1908. Countless others were mutilated for failing to meet production quotas for rubber, ivory, and minerals.
And even when the Congo became a Belgian colony — under control of the Belgian government rather than just one man — that didn’t mean the brutality came to an end. Many Congolese people were still forced into labor and abused by the Belgians who remained in the country.
Plus, the Congolese were considered second-class citizens in their own country. Before 1958, native Congolese couldn’t vote, hold office or high-ranking positions in the army, or attend Belgian universities….
A father in the Congo looks down at his child’s hand and foot, which were cut off when he didn’t meet his rubber production quota. Circa 1904.
Clayton Morris: So that’s just one example. We have Guatemala as another example. We have Italy as another example. How many people do you think have been killed?
Colonel Towner: Millions
Clayton Morris: Do we have a number of how many people were at the hands of these NATO stay behind armies?
Colonel Towner: Not directly. Because of the overthrows of these governments like in Indonesia, a million people ended up dying. We destabilized Cambodia. Pol Pot coming to power was a direct result of a CIA instigated coup. We had people there training in Cambodia. We had people training in Laos.
USAID & THE OFFICE OF PUBLIC SAFETY
35:50: One of the most devastating parts of all of this is how much of our federal government was infected with it. You mentioned earlier USAID. USAID had an office called the Office of Public Safety. The Office of Public Safety is one of those things that once you start researching it, your mind just explodes. They recruited former cops from all over the United States and they trained them to go into these countries that they were going to destabilize to train national police forces. This is how they did Mosaddegh [The Prime Minister of Iran from 1951 to 1953 who overthrew the Shaw & nationalized the huge British oil holdings in Iran. -GC] After Mosaddegh,[coup of the Shah] they had stay-behinds in southern Iran leading up to the overthrow of Mosaddegh. I didn’t know that until last week. I had never found any trace of stay-behinds in Iran, although I’ve researched Iran extensively, until literally last week. They had a military advisory group down there. The CIA was down there. After they overthrew Mosaddegh, they set up, under the guise of USAID, Office of Public Safety, what a weird name, under General Norman Schwarzoff SENIOR, the desert storm guy’s dad. He created the Savack. [Secret police, domestic security and intelligence service in Iran during the reign of the Pahlavi dynasty -GC] He trained the Savack under the Office of Public Safety. The Savack is a terrorist organization that basically kidnapped, tortured, and disappeared people that disagreed with the Shaw. You will find the office of public safety in like 50 or 60 different countries around the world and every one of them was done after the CIA installs a dictator there.
37:35: Clayton Morris: So this office of public safety is it under, what umbrella is it under?
Colonel Towner: USAID.
Clayton Morris: So, it’s under USAID. Have these recent changes to USAID and the disbanding of it, has that affected it? Cut it off?
37:50: Colonel Towner: The Office of Public Safety actually was done away with in 1974 because it came under intense scrutiny by Congress in the 1975, you know, family jewels of the CIA investigations. No one was held accountable. As a matter of fact, when you go back and look, at Operation Phoenix in Vietnam, which we know to be basically the same thing. It was torturing, kidnapping, and assassinating anyone that went against the puppet government that had been installed in the South.
38:30: Operation Phoenix was ran by the Michigan State University. [Also WIKI on Phoenix Program] A lot of people don’t know that Michigan State University hired CIA agents, literal agents, not fronts, not assets, agents. They dressed them up as professors and they deployed them to Vietnam basically to set up the Phoenix program. What I just recently learned is Indiana University, my old alma mater, was working as a partnership with Michigan State in that initiative and they deployed over to Operation Phoenix um under the guise of USAID, Office of Public Safety, and set up this apparatus of training. They set up torture prisons. You find a guy by the name of Dan Mitrione , who I’ve covered extensively. He was the police chief in Richmond, Indiana.
He was trained by the FBI. He sent his officers to Indiana University’s police training. This the same training partnership with Michigan State. He was selected as a part of the office of public safety. He was first deployed to Brazil right before their coup. Then you find him in Uruguay with their new military installed dictator there. And he was instrumental in training people how to torture people, how to kidnap people. And much of the torture led to the people dying. And that’s just one aspect of it. Not the entirey of these national police going out and literally bombing people’s houses just because they were suspected of resisting the military dictatorship that we had installed there. And so again, tens of thousands in every single one of these operations.
They were in Argentina. Argentina took their prisoners because they didn’t want to dig the graves, loaded them up on aircraft and flew them out over the ocean and dumped them out. So, it’s almost impossible to get a body count of the number of people that have been affected by these programs.
40:50: Clayton Morris: We talked about Operation Northwoods, which is really an extension of Operation Gladio. Has there been any other on on domestic US soil that we know of that would fall under the Operation Gladio umbrella? False flag attacks on the United States. I mean, other than 9-11, in the United States.
41:10: Colonel Towner: We had Gladio operators that killed the Chilean ambassador that got stuck here. He was here, and he couldn’t go back because of the, assassination of President SalvadorAllende in Chile. Ambassador Orlando Letelier is his name. One of the Cuban exiles, I think two went to prison. They were trained Gladio people, went to Washington DC and ignited a car bomb, killing him and an American citizen, his aid, in downtown Washington DC. They were also implicated in the overthrow of Nixon. They were implicated in the assassination of JFK and RFK. when he was assassinated. If you trace the people that really did it not, Sirhan Sirhan, they were tied to the Cuban exiles and the CIA.
Clayton Morris: And MK Ultra mind control. I’ve done deep dives on MK Ultra of course, the CIA’s secret mind control brainwashing program to carry out nefarious things. Are there any blending here across Operation Gladadio and MK Ultra?
JIM JONES OF ‘DRINK THE KOOL-AID’
42:25: Colonel Towner: [Laugh] I’m glad that you asked that question. Do you know who Jim Jones is?
Clayton Morris: Sure.
Colonel Towner: Okay. Do you know where Jim Jones hometown was?
Clayton Morris: San Francisco, right?
Colonel Towner:Richmond, Indiana.
Clayton Morris: Oh, right. But Okay. When he really started getting going and building his church he moved his church to San Francisco.
Colonel Towner:Right. Jim Jones was classmates with Dan Meteron, the guy I just talked about.
Clayton Morris: Come on. [Laugh]
Colonel Towner: I’m not even kidding.
Clayton Morris: I give up. I swear to God. I mean, you know, I just try to go through my days as like a normal human being and all of these pieces, it’s just unbelievable to me on a regular basis. You’re blowing my mind.
Colonel Towner: Okay, so Jim Jones moves his “church” [Air quotes] out to San Francisco. He is almost immediately approved as a foster home in San Francisco, right? If you go back and you do the research, you find out that the mayor of San Francisco kills himself because he was one of the purveyors of the children in Jim Jones little compound. Jim Jones was part of the Democrat vote running that was going on both in Los Angeles and San Francisco. He was intimately involved in all kinds of nefarious things. What I didn’t know when I started looking into Jim Jones — I don’t have any concrete evidence evidence that while in San Francisco he was part of MK Ultra. I do have evidence of him being involved when he relocated to Guyana.
44:00: Why did he relocate to Guyana? The reason he did is because Congressman Leo Ryan, the only active congressional member to ever be assassinated on duty, began an investigation into Jim Jones and the CIA, into the operation that they were running out in San Francisco. So Jim Jones, because the pressure is getting to him, he relocates his commune to Jonestown. Well, I had already came across evidence that Jonestown existed long before Jim Jones moved his church there. It was used as a terrorist training camp for Operation Condor in Latin America. So, he had ships. He was going from Brazil to Guyana with weapons. They were using them against Venezuela in order to protect who? Rockefeller’s oil interests in Venezuela. So anybody in Venezuela that became a problem was taken out launched from Jonestown in Guyana.
45:10: So all these people show up and if you go back and read the autopsy of the local guyan coroner, you find out that none of those people were poisoned with cyanide. They all had injection sites at the base of their neck. If you read Colonel Purdy’s(sp?) book, you find out that the body bags for
those people were ordered the day before the massacre even happened. [For?] to the Joint Chiefs of Staff to fly the body bags in. And despite having flown the body bags in, they [the bodies] were left out for two weeks. So no one could see any of the evidence because it was hundred and some degrees there and their bodies began decomposing. And so a person that had been working for Jim Jones before all of the massacre happened had said that they were a whistleblower and got Leo Ryan to fly to
Guyana because they were going to reveal all of the nefarious things that he had alleged already, and he’s assassinated when he lands on the tarmac.
46:20:Clayton Morris: So cyanide was not used? I mean we had like over 300 children 300 children given like we you know drink heard like the flavor aid or whatever they were all drinking. It was not Kool-Aid. It was flavor aid. So right.
Colonel Towner: None of that happened.
Clayton Morris: You’re blowing my mind. None of that happened. They were, they had injections and of course Yeah, you’re right. They were left out. We have the visuals. We have the images of the I think it was the famous Newsweek cover, right? The aerial photographs from high up where you see them out in the sun. They’ve been sitting out. The bodies have been rotting in the sun for weeks.
Colonel Towner: Yes.
Clayton Morris: It’s s unbelievable. I just I don’t even know what to ask. I’m just blown away. You’re blowing my mind. I’ll let you run with I mean, put the pieces together for me because I’m just I’m just… [Shakes head]
FUNDING THE CIA & OPERATION GLADIO
Colonel Towner: So, the part we haven’t talked about is how’ they get the money to do all of this because it was all done covertly off the books. How’d they get the money?
At the end of World War II, you had a civil war going on in China. You had Mao fighting against ChiangKai–shek and other warlords in the south. Well, Colonel Paul Helliwell was one of the OSS officers who was somehow also in the military. I’ve come across a lot of that happening by the way.
Colonel Paul Helliwell was a military attache to ChiangKai–shek during World War II and he’s watching ChiangKai–shek pay for his military efforts against Mao by selling opium. Now there’s a long story of Indian opium flooding China at this time under the auspices of the British Empire who basically owned India, the boxer wars, all of that stuff. So ChiangKai–shek had a model of funding his revolution with drug money. So Paul Helliwell picks up the phone and he says, “Hey Allan Dulles, I got a great way to pay for that Operation Gladio thing that you’re kicking off. We could do it with drug money. It’s untraceable. It’s cash. Let’s do that.” And so they make a deal with ChiangKai–shek that they’re going to supply him military aid to fight Mao under the guise of anti-communism.
ChiangKai–shek gets kicked out of China. Eventually they move him to Burma. So Shanghai sets up his opium operation out of Burma. The Burmese government eventually kicks him out. So there’s this tiny little island over here called Formosa. We now call it Taiwan. But Formosa at the time was Japanese occupied. It’s a Chinese island. It was occupied during World War II by the Japanese and so under the guise of going onto Formosa to get the rest of the Japanese out of there, there are US people present. Well, they move ChiangKai–shek and his KMT army of drug smugglers over to Formosa.
And if you go through the first several, and I just pulled out of my notes, the first several State Department [people], they weren’t ambassadors at the time, that were in Taiwan. And the first several CIA chiefs, you find them also involved in other Operation Gladio destabilization efforts. So, for example, the first station chief, assigned in 1949 to Formosa, now called Taiwan, was Raymond Pierce. He was an OSS veteran who had parachuted to set up the KMT in Burma. He also was part of the Western Enterprise, Inc., which was a CIA front company headquartered in Taiwan that arranged arms to go into Formosa but not officially. It was black market arms. He also moved on to work with radio nets, opium finance, weapon drops, and other activity. I didn’t know until I started doing this research that Taiwan wasn’t just one island. It’s seven. And the KMT was set up on all of those islands after World War II after they kicked ChiangKai–shek out, to launch military operations into China to destabilize it.
One of the former ambassadors was involved in the destabilization of Tibet. And again, until I did this research, I didn’t know that we had an entire contingent of stay-behind units in Tibet. So, what we did was we took Tibetans, we flew them into Colorado to a an abandoned World War II base, taught them how to be terrorists, and then took them back out to Tibet for them to launch attacks internal to China as well. We did the same thing with the Uyghurs, by the way. We use Nepal for that. We took Uyghurs out of China, trained them in Nepal to be terrorists.
Clayton Morris: All in an effort to destabilize China.
Colonel Towner: Yes. So Taiwan now is the drug hub. ChiangKai–shek, immediately implements martial law. For the next 40 years in Taiwan, up until Richard Nixon actually recognizes China, going into the early 80s, Taiwan was under a dictatorship, under martial law. They were not a democracy at all. ChiangKai–shek, his son, and one other guy were the rulers, the dictators in Taiwan. So it is not a coincidence that in the immediate aftermath of having to recognize mainland China and we can no longer call Taiwan the Republic of China because they’re not. Another one of those oligarchical companies decided Taiwan is going to be where we put all of our semiconductors, because we have to have an excuse to defend Taiwan and we just lost it when they recognized mainland China. So now we have another excuse.
THE VATICAN BANK
You can’t overstate the importance of this drug network that was ran out of the golden triangle with Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and that entire region because they used the Vatican bank to money launder all of the drug money. And that’s another reason why Italy was critical to the exposure of Operation Gladio. The P2 Masonic Lodge was set up. Licio Gelli was the guy that was running the P2 Lodge. That’s how they met. They met under the guise of this Masonic lodge. There was like 800 names eventually released that belong to this P2 Masonic lodge. And according to Vatican rules, you’re not even allowed to be a Mason and be a Catholic. So, how are all of these Catholics belonging to the Masonic Lodge? P2 also shows up in Operation Condor. Their subsidiary was in Argentina and that’s how they were able to coordinate. And it’s not coincidental that when we lost the Golden Triangle, we moved to Afghanistan. That’s when we went in in the 1980s because of course in the 70s we lost control of Asia’s drug market. So we go to Afghanistan. There’s opium there. It’s not a coincidence that in the year 2000 the Taliban had eradicated almost all of the opium and the next year we have 911 and immediately we go back into Afghanistan because Bin Laden just so happens to be in Afghanistan. And what happens to the opium production? It skyrockets right back up. And Operation Condor created the ability, the control mechanisms to move a lot of the drug apparatus to Latin America. That’s why Colombia has been so important to the drug networking into the United States. So they set up all kinds of banks. The Bank of Commerce, Credit and Commerce International, BCCI, Castle Bank, Paul Helliwell actually set that bank up in the Caribbean. And Nugan Hand Bank
was set up in Australia. Those banks in conjunction with the Vatican was the money laundering apparatus to facilitate this entire network.
55:55: Clayton Morris: Do you think anyone in the Trump administration is as fully versed on this as you and is actively trying to eradicate this or is deep state forces so entrenched that this is perpetuating at a much larger level than even we knew about in the 1940s and 50s?
Colonel Towner: So I have to believe if they don’t know all of what I know, they know a lot of what I know because they wouldn’t have gone after USAID the way they did. because a lot of the facilitation of this has moved into USAID. USAID is a CIA front. The interaction between those two both in personnel and in mission is intrinsically linked.
Clayton Morris: How so?
Colonel Towner: Well, for example, the Office of Public Safety. I’m reviewing a book right now called Hidden Terrors, by A. J. Langguth,. That book illustrates that the Office of Public Safety actually had CIA agents working in it and that’s under USAID. That is just one. The Office of Transition Initiatives is another one that had CIA embedded in it. It functions as a CIA front.
Clayton Morris: How much of this is still left? Because we know some of it has been rolled into the State Department under Marco Rubio. A lot of it has been cut off, these people packing their boxes up and leaving. But how much of do you think this operation might have been rolled under into the State Department, which in many ways is as equally nefarious as the CIA?
Colonel Towner: Well, as my research has shown, ambassador after ambassador. They specifically move particular ambassadors to locations that they are going to destabilize with CIA and USAID operations. You find the same ambassadors showing up all the time.
One of the most intriguing guys that I ran across that I had never heard about before was William D. Pawley. He was supposedly this multi-millionaire businessman living in South Florida. Pawley Island in South Carolina is actually named after his family, a very wealthy family. And he ends up becoming an ambassador. He was the assistant Secretary of State at one point. Him and Paul Helliwell were very good friends and he owned the franchise of Curtis Aircraft in Southeast Asia. So he’s the guy that literally gave ChiangKai–shek all his aircraft. They set up sea supply together to give him a
navy. And he owned the bus system and several large sugar plantations in Cuba. He used his personal yacht to take a group of Cuban exiles to Cuba for a land invasion. He’s an ambassador out of the State Department! he also worked on the Guatemalan coup with a guy by the name of Tommy the Cork Corcoran who is CIA.
Tommy ‘the Cork’ Corcoran and El Pulpo
He [Pawley] also was an executive at Pan Am and Pan Am was often time used for cargo shipments for the CIA. So when you start researching these people, they go in and out of the oligarch class into the State Department and back in order to ensure their vested interests are what we’re after and not the interest of the United States as a country, right?
59:50: Clayton Morris: Oh, clearly. Yeah.
Colonel Towner: He’s fascinating. He’s mentioned in a book called The Legacy of Ashes. He literally went to a bank and pulled out $150,000 after meeting with President Eisenhower to buy three planes for the Guatemalan coup.
1:00:10:Clayton Morris: It’s funny I’ve interviewed Tim Weiner on that book. It came out years ago back when I was still working at Fox News at the time. I interviewed him about that and his book Legacy of Ashes and I read that years ago. You’re just refreshing my memory. It’s been it’s been a number of years now, but it’s remarkable. And you see it in the United States even in the book like Chaos about the history of the CIA in the 1960s in California and of course the infiltration of the CIA and all of these groups, you know, infiltrating the the hippie movement in Berkeley. it’s all happening right on the United States soil. It’s hard for Americans to believe it, right?
Colonel Towner: It was, certainly, having spent 30 years in the military, hard for me to believe that all of this stuff happened. And I was completely ignorant of all of it. And again, I’m educated, so I thought you are educated in what they want you to know. And if you start using internet search engines that pick up foreign news articles and things like that. Now again one of the things I have not told you is in 1990 when Italy first exposed Operation Gladio. I know the date because of Paul Williams book called Operation Gladio and I’ve interviewed him a couple of times on my podcast. It stuck out to me like a sore thumb because the 2nd of August 1990 is the very day I arrived at the Rome airport for my three-year assignment in Italy. So I’m reading his book a couple of years ago and I’m like 2nd of August 1990. [HUH?) What I noticed about Italy in the three years that I lived there, during this exposure operation, they were gunning down judges that were hearing cases about Operation Gladio, they were killing prosecutors. They were killing reporters. And I just thought that there was a crap ton of mafia in Italy. I had I never heard the words Operation Gladio. They called it “the years of lead”. I didn’t know anything about what was going on. I didn’t know it was all part of this. I didn’t speak Italian. But I heard my landlord and their daughters talking about it who spoke English. And I never put two and two together. What I also realized is if you [Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti ] are behind Operation Gladio, you know it’s being ran out of NATO. So he reveals this in August and all of the other NATO countries go we don’t have anything like that. That must have been just something Italy did. Well, October was a NATO planning meeting for Operation Gladio. There were two cells in NATO. One was called the Allied clandestine planning. The other one was called CPC. And one of them had a meeting in October. So Andreotti, the prime minister that exposed it in August, comes back on television in November of 1990 and said, “Hey, all you guys that said you didn’t have anything to do with Operation Gladio, here’s the list of the countries that had just just attended the planning meeting.” He told
on all of them. And so again, what I remember about the 2nd of August is getting off the aircraft at the international terminal and going into the airport. Now, it’s my first time overseas as a a military officer, and for every person that was in the Rome airport that day. There’s about 20 Carabinieri with AK-47s. And I’m like, what the heck did I just do? I had no idea that international airports were so militarized. What the heck is going on? That was the exact same day that Saddam Hussein had been given State Department authority to invade Kuwait.
And do you know what the convenient thing that all of the NATO countries said after the 2nd of August 1990 as to why they couldn’t answer any questions about Operation Gladio? We got to go to war. We’re too busy. We’re planning a war. We’re too busy to answer questions about something.
Clayton Morris: We’re too busy. We’re planning a war. We’re too busy to answer questions about something that’s a cold war relic. We can’t talk about it even though it was still happening. That’s amazing to me that well and and it’s convenient that Italy could use you know these are just mafia hits. So don’t you know don’t look any more deeply into this. We’re killing prosecutors. So the prosecutors that were killed, the judges that were killed, they were hearing cases about Operation Gladio. Yes. And what were the prosecutors zeroing in on? Who were they going after that that led them to be shot and killed?
Colonel Towner: Well, understand that Prime Minister Andreotti eventually goes to jail. It went to the very top of Italy. It involved the Vatican. It involved Lucio Gelli, the guy that was the P2 Masonic Grand Puba, whatever you call him. The bankers, Roberto Calvi, the guy that gets strung up on a bridge in London, the Banco Ambrosiano. The Vatican had so much money that they were laundering, they couldn’t do it by themselves. So they involved Italian banks. The chief of the military intelligence, the chief of the military, basically their Secretary of Defense, they were all involved in it.
Clayton Morris: Carrying out these operations.
Colonel Towner: Yes. The train bombing, the bank bombings, all of them.
Clayton Morris: The Bologna massacre. All of it. All of it.
Colonel Towner: Yes. Tied together. The attempted assassination on John Paul. II was two Greywolf Gladio people from Turkey. That’s who eventually went to jail for that attempted assassination. They were part of Operation Gladio.
Clayton Morris: You know, since you’ve already blown my mind enough, I mean, talking about Jonestown and all of these connections here and I think about like the USS Liberty false flag. Yes. under Lynden Baines Johnson, of course, all the way up to MOSSAD and the CIA working hand in hand there, to get us involved in a war in Egypt, of course. Operation Gladio involvement in any of that wouldn’t be surprised.
1:06:54 Colonel Towner: The same pattern is involved in all of them. So one of the things that I’ve found out is like Iran Contra. If you understand Operation Gladio and you go back and you start reviewing the attempted overthrow of the Nicaraguan government under the same auspices that we don’t want them to have their own farmland. They were primarily owned by United Fruit as well. The Sandinistas finally get in power. There’s a lot of people that don’t like the Sandinistas. Whatever. That was the government that got elected. So we began funding covertly using these covert same funds to fund the Contras. Reagan with George Bush as his vice president starts using Israel as a weapons cutout. So they become a major weapons trafficker.
The US is a funder
Clayton Morris: into Nicaragua.
So we can sort of wash our hands and then Nicaragua.
Colonel Tower: Into Iran and then into Nicaragua.
[So US funds ==> Israel, Israel Weapons ==> Iran, Iran Weapons ==> Nicaragua Contras. –GC]
Clayton Morris: So Right. Right. Yeah. But we could wash our hands of it then. We could sort of Oh, it’s we’re funneling it through Israel, so it’s not really going to Nicaragua. Yeah.
Colonel Towner: Exactly. Correct. And the same thing happened in Angola under Reagan. So we do not want the government that Angola is going to put in place. Angola backs up to the uranium, the gold, the diamonds. So we want to control Angola for the oligarchs. So we get cut off. The CIA gets cut off from funding Angola directly. So what do they do? They use Israel to funnel weapons into South Africa, which at the time was apartheid South Africa, and they’re running them over the border into Angola to fight this. Cuban exiles from the CIA trained Cuban exile farm down in Miami are in Angola fighting.
1:08:50: I I told you about Felix Rodriguez. Felix Rodriguez was training the Contras. So Israel has been an integral part of all of this. As a matter of fact we didn’t even mention that Taiwan set up a thing called the political warfare cadre academy. It’s a terrorist training camp. The gist of it though, was that all of these national police organizations, these death squads that we were setting up covertly in Latin America, all they had to do was call themselves a political party. And in the US press, we’ll just say if you attack the death squads that you’re attacking democracy. I would argue a lot of the Democrat parties like that today in America. But it literally was a curriculum set up at a academy in Taiwan to teach these people. And if you go back and just do a search of how many of The School of Americas, which was set up in Panama, (it eventually moves to Fort Benning) were graduates. They all end up in the National Police Force in Latin America. How many of those people ended up in the Political Warfare Academy? A crap ton of them did. And if you go and look at the countries that still have political ties to Taiwan officially? The majority of them are all in Latin America because of that. And so again, it just [like] an onion. And the more you unpeel, the the bigger you understand this operation is. It has like enveloped the entire world. Cross continents, cross regional hemispheres and it was [and is] held together through this post world war II intelligence network.
1:11:00: Clayton Morris: So I guess I’ll get you out of here on this. I could spend all afternoon talking about it, but how much of this is still in operation today?
Colonel Towner:I don’t have any way of knowing that. What I look for today is patterns based on their past operations. I would say all of the 2020 Summer of Love was part of this operation. It is exactly the election interference in 2016, all directly ties to the CIA and the model that they set up when they destabilized Chileduring Allende’s initial presidential run and then afterwards. So there are patterns of it happening in the United States. The infiltration of all of these illegal aliens into the United States. It provides the perfect cover. Whether or not, and we know a lot of them are criminals, but whether or not they’re actually Gladio cells doesn’t matter because they will be blamed for it and the real Gladio cells will not. So, do I believe that they were up to nefarious things? Absolutely. Because this is a very similar pattern to destabilization of other countries.
1:12:15Clayton Morris: Well, Colonel, you’ve blown my mind on all of this. Where can people learn more about your work, research in all of this? Again, I’d love to have you back. We can do more deep dives on this, but I think this was a good primer for people to understand Operation Gladio.
1:12:30: Colonel Towner: So, primarily if you go to my X account one of my researchers assistants, Bridget, has created a pinned post that has, a four o’clock show where we do book reviews on X in spaces every day. I’m at @ Colonel spelled out Towner on X — t o w n e r — and that pin post has links to everything, the Rumble channel,my interviews with Paul Williams are over there, the guy that wrote Operation Gladio, the book. My Rumble channel is called the Colonel’s Corner and there are hundreds of hours of research. I also do a Wednesday night show with Alpha Warrior. It’s called the Alpha Warrior Show on Rumble and we started at a primer to Operation Gladio over a year ago and every Wednesday night at 9:30 we have a show. I just did the deep dive into Obama and the family CIA ties to not just his mom and dad, but his grandmother and grandfather in a two-part series there. So I’m all about the CIA at this point.
Clayton Morris: Oh, wonderful. Well, we’ll link it up in the description below and so people can look and follow your work. Colonel, great to have you here on the show. Thank you for this. Thank you for your incredible research and sharing it with our audience. We really appreciate it.
1:14:00 Colonel Towner: Thank you for the invitation to be here. I’m honored.
As our Kal continues to accurately say and which has become a code statement on here, “Trust Trump”. Today’s opener is dedicated to the economic reasons of why we should do that. We will be back next week to resume the Declaration signers.
Many of you may be like me. I only trust the Lord completely, then wifey, and down the line. The first two have earned my complete trust; I go down with the ship with them. As for the topic of trusting Trump, observations and experience have taught me that he is outstanding and fully trustworthy in many specific areas. None of us are perfect and everybody will have their own opinions on any weaknesses President Trump has demonstrated he has in the past. This latter point is not the purpose of this opener. This is about how we finally have a POTUS who is executing a plan that will take the rest of the world off our backs.
My first piece of advice is to ignore anything the main stream pundits say as well as many politicians who are stuck in the past. There is no modern day reference on which to base their antiquated analysis that will adequately explain what is happening. Which is exactly why they are astounded they are so wrong and POTUS Trump has been so right about his economic plans including the use of tariffs. President Trump has not only beat them at the game, he changed the rules to it without them grasping he was doing it. The following article summarizes it well.
In my opinion we should Trust Trump in many areas in addition to economic matters. There is also his leadership with the illegals invasion, strategic military actions, world peace, law and order, real estate usage, natural resources, world leadership, jobs, education, political endorsements… well, most things relating to being POTUS of the greatest country on earth.
Brave New Economic World
We can see that the pundits and pseudo economists proved they did not know didly about what they were opining about. But Diddley knows,
The Alpha is back in charge in America. You know it is true. 😀
As you can see there is a major reason why The Lion said “tariffs” may be his favorite word. By the time this opener posts, he will have negotiated nearly $20 trillion of investment commitments into America. The results from it all will be incredible. With it he is authorizing and EPA is fast tracking approval of electrical power plant generation on site of the projects that need it that are built and owned by the investing company. Do you fully realize what that does? It means power generation for many manufacturing companies will gravitate to being off the primary national electricity grid not only with new plants of new investments, but also with existing large industrial consumers of power that will undoubtedly be permitted to do likewise. In addition these new generators of power will be able to sell excess power to other customers and the existing grid’s suppliers. All of it makes the grid safer in the event of attack or natural disaster. This innovative approach will spread worldwide and create another major industry for American interests. The very methods being used will stabilize energy costs and diversify the sources of fuel that are utilized. All of which America has ample supply and access.
Next, add in the opening of federally controlled lands for fuels and minerals production. Then add in all the suppliers, manufacturing support, distribution, and service companies who will be integral to the new manufacturing and utility operations. Then, add in the housing, schools, retail, professionals, etc. needed to support the communities whose populations will be affected by this growth.
Mind blown…
To better understand and for the uninitiated into the world of macro economics and finance – what PDT and supporters are doing with tariffs and trade deals is world defining change. The trade efforts are bringing peace to many contested parts of the world. Paradigm shift does not even come close to describing it. He is having fun like a kid in a candy store doing it.
There is no way to turn this economic ship of positive change around and head back to port; it has irreversibly sailed for the brave new world. The trillions are coming to our home to roost. When the Euros bent the knee and the deal was announced, the death rattle sounded for the future of the existing operations of the cabal. To be sure they will morph into something else that operates on the fringe. But they no longer hold the cards.
To use TradeBait vernacular – PDT got other people to invest their and other people’s money into America to the ultimate benefit of We the People. They pay us for the privilege of doing business with us while hiring and training us for the related highly compensated jobs. The numbers made better sense to do that than to pay the higher tariffs PDT imposed. Yet, they are still paying some level of tariffs as well as taxes along with some investing cash into the Trump/Bessent controlled version of a public investment fund like Trump’s buddies use in SA.
Meanwhile, his handpicked cabinet related to national security is running off or deporting the Dem’s illegal, under the table slave labor and traffickers who have undercut wages, jobs, elections, and lives of We the People. Next on the agenda is to go hard on the cartels and take them out before they even smell our borders.
Cool.
What The Founders Thought
However, much of the economic might being exerted is not a new concept. It has been developed and staged over the past 250 years to be rolled out when ready and as needed. Again, here is the archived letter from Alexander Hamilton to Robert Morris that I posted in American Stories.- Part 21 a couple of weeks ago.
Many know that Hamilton was our original “tariffs” guru. Fewer understand the depth of what those two genius founders understood of the interrelating factors. If you want to know more about the tariffs subject, Alexander Hamilton’s official activities, and the politics at that time; please take time to read the linked informative analysis.
Just like in those days, once again we find ourselves in a similar position today. This time around PDT has the majority support of Congress and the authority as POTUS that Hamilton did not fully have.
What was already known and then expanded upon by our founding fathers has been noted, researched, and chronicled over all of the years that followed; particularly in the areas of economics, military, and the law. A base of economic knowledge relating to worldwide activities has been built. Economic strategies have been developed for dealing with a myriad of situations, conditions, nations, and leaders.
President Trump, applicable cabinet, and economists have studied it all and are using the most current methods and technology in coordination with the best and brightest America has to offer. Then his team negotiates trade deals with the best sharks in the world handling it from our side while he acts in the closer role. Nobody does it better than us because our guys and gals think outside of the box and are always well prepared. What is different is the peace deals he negotiates between former enemies frequently have trade deals attached to America and our interests. So, America wins on trade with both parties as they learn to be friends instead of enemies without the deep state creating mischief and pitting them against each other. That takes them out of the cabal’s clutches and adds more valuable information and data in addition to the trade.
The historical downside has always been that nobody ignores the advantages created more than us as well. We get fat, happy and lazy; then fall asleep behind the wheel. Sometimes it happens intentionally due to political and business corruption. As a result we know what our kryptonite has been.
Donald J. Trump has got this. The America First MAGA movement, the white hats, and many other nations in the world now have his back. Most importantly God spared President Trump’s life to be His servant for a time such as this. The Donald himself knows that to be true and openly states it. We have a deep, growing bench of America First MAGA leaders and supporters in important roles. There is zero doubt in my mind that the Hillbilly Middie can take it to the next level when #47 is done. Even lil Marco has proven his commitment and done an exceptional job at State.
Current Situation
As Americans we have been enticed to buy lower cost stuff because the Chi-coms do not care about human rights and 401-k plans. We are a nation conditioned to consuming mass quantities of products of all types. However, the purchases perpetuate their scheme and actual power. They use controlled and slave labor to produce the stuff at lower costs. International business conglomerates design products and use the Chi-coms to produce them at those lower costs, then resell to the consumers worldwide who fall for the fake promotions, sponsored media reports, and ads. Add in the politicians that the people elect who believe it is good business in their states to establish relations with the godless communists and offer special deals using tax payer money for locating businesses to their states; for personal gain of course. I
n essence the international corporate piranha that use Chyna and other totalitarian regimes operate irrespective of nations. Their sole goals are to survive, provide enough products the customers want, make good profits, and grow even more tentacles by whatever means necessary.
That has been the picture in America for decades pre-Donald J. Trump as #45 and #47. That is what is changing so dramatically. As an example, some reading this may still pay or remember paying a cover charge at a club or entertainment venue. The charge went to covering the costs of the entertainment. The venue had something of value you wanted to see, so you paid to get in and then paid some more for the food and libations. That is what President Trump and team are doing with other nations and corporate conglomerates. There is a charge for doing business here because we have something of great value they want – capable workers, more than adequate natural resources and infrastructure, quality products/services, and many paying customers. They can choose to pay a larger cover charge with the tariffs to access our markets, or, they can pay a smaller one or even none under stated conditions along with providing financial and manufacturing investment into America. Most are opting for the latter. They know their investments are safe here and over time their costs will be lower as America leads from the front with AI and technology. With the lower taxes locked in long term from the BBB and a lower cost of energy that reduces production as well as transportation costs – foreign investors are jumping at the opportunity provided them.
So naysayers have to ask themselves; what do these very intelligent, wealthy, and established leaders from around the world know that entices them to do what PDT is dictating, that they do not know?
The cost to produce those products will be controlled in America because for the first time in a very long time the tariffs are leveling the playing field and American leadership is reducing the costs and red tape to corporations to invest big and do business here. Distribution costs will be lower than shipping here from other parts of the world. Our officials are also providing the things that are critically necessary relating to ample access to electricity, water, land, transportation, a competent workforce with training support, reduced regulatory requirements and so on. As we assert ourselves in the domestic energy sector, production costs drop in relation to revenues received. This leads to greater profits and rising stock valuations.
Since robotics and AI are going to drive modern production lines, there is a reduced need for massive numbers of employees that would necessitate an aggressive worker visa program for the purpose. American citizens win as a result.
All of it leads to a much larger, financially stronger middle class in this country. America wins big time when that happens.
Conclusion
To get to the roots of who has been behind the grand scheme of the soon vanquished cabal, please read the works of our Gail Combs. Just know that anytime a politician has ever wanted to attract investment or business relations with the Chi-coms, they are openly stating whose team they are on and it is not America First MAGA.
I have a comment to make to each and every single one of those azzhats.
Game over, bitches. You gotta pay to play now.
Going forward, critical thinking and strategic actions will be rewarded. If you were duped or were beat down and just did not care any more with the past long running fake economy, this is your shot at redemption. All you have to do is communicate support for America First MAGA to folks. Let them know that you appreciate what is being done by President Trump and supporters. If you see something sinister relating to election integrity or with illegals, say something to authorities.
That’s it.
Then invest your work ethic and assets into MAGA. Celebrate each day that we are a SAFE nation that is no longer being taken advantage of and used by the rest of the world. When you no longer have to pay income taxes in the future and see the increased wealth in your retirement plans and investments it will become even more personal and appreciated. That day is coming…
Please remember Wolf’s rules for our community. In general that means to be respectful to each other and to pull no shenanigans that your mom might find offensive or otherwise cause jail time. That said, free speech is honored here.
