In a horrific incident that has left the nation in shock, a large concert venue near Moscow became the scene of a mass shooting late Friday. The Crocus City Hall attack resulted in over 100 people dead, including children, and is one of the worst terrorist attacks in Russia’s modern history. According to the latest estimates, at least 133 people were killed and scores injured in the deadly shooting and subsequent fire sparked by a group of gunmen who stormed the Crocus City Hall, a large music venue just outside of the Russian capital. Details are still emerging, but according to Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), the attack was carefully planned and designed to maximize casualties. An investigation into the incident is underway.
Perpetrators detained: Eleven people, including four terrorists who were directly involved in the deadly shooting, have been detained, the FSB said in a statement on Saturday. According to the security service, the weapons used in the shooting were organized in a cache in advance. Russia’s Investigative Committee also confirmed that four suspects who “committed the terrorist attack” on Crocus City Hall were detained in Bryansk Region, “not far from the border with Ukraine.” According to the authorities, the terrorists planned to flee to Ukraine.

Putin’s address to the nation: Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed the nation following the terrorist attack at the Crocus City Hall. He expressed his condolences to the victims and families affected by the shooting and said that everyone responsible for the tragedy will be punished. All the attackers involved have been arrested and the security forces are doing everything possible to protect Russian citizens against further mass murder, the president added. The main thing now is to prevent those who are behind this bloodbath from committing another crime, he said in the address on Saturday.
Terrorist attack suspect interrogated: On Saturday, RT Editor-in-Chief Margarita Simonyan posted footage of the interrogation of one of the suspects. The man in the video claims that he went on the killing spree after he was promised 500,000 rubles ($5,400). The suspect also claimed that his handlers had instructed him as to where the attack should take place. He said he was ordered to “kill people there… doesn’t matter who.” The suspect claimed that the terrorist act was organized on Telegram with an unknown person who provided weapons.
During the attack, eyewitnesses reported that the gunmen opened fire at point-blank range on anyone who came within view. The attackers then set the building ablaze, causing a massive fire that quickly engulfed much of the seven-story structure, including the roof. Multiple fire brigades and aircraft were deployed to extinguish the flames, but around 13,000 square meters of the building were destroyed in the inferno.
Governments from across the world have expressed their condolences and support for the Russian people following the massacre. International organizations, as well as EU and NATO officials, have condemned the terrorist attack. Hundreds of mourners placed flowers at Moscow’s diplomatic missions in various countries, including Mexico, Moldova, Serbia, Canada, the US, and Argentina. Meanwhile, dozens of Muscovites have been lining up at the city’s hospitals to donate blood to the victims of the deadly shooting.
Earlier this month, the US issued a warning to its citizens in Russia, urging them to avoid public places and mass gatherings due to “extremists” having imminent plans for an attack in Moscow. Several other embassies followed suit, issuing similar alerts. However, White House adviser John Kirby has said Washington had no specific “advance knowledge” of Friday’s shooting.
More links to Ukraine
The investigation into the horrific attack at a Concert Hall in the Moscow region has identified one of the attackers as Rustam Azhiyev, a former Ukrainian soldier who served in 2022. The White Renault automobile seen on dashcam footage outside the concert hall, with men exiting carrying rifles, was captured hours after the attack near Bryansk, Russia. The men inside, who had fled to nearby woods, were identified as citizens of Tajikistan.
The rapid development of this investigation has raised questions about why the suspects were travelling toward Ukraine when they are allegedly from Tajikistan and why one of the suspects has ties to the Ukrainian armed forces. As the world mourns the tragic loss of life in this senseless act of violence, it remains to be seen what further information will emerge from the ongoing investigation.
Huge emotional impact among the Russian people
The emotional impact on the Russian population is reminiscent of how the Israeli public felt following the events of October 7, leading many Russians to adopt similar sentiments towards their perceived enemies. Before this attack, Vladimir Putin was already a popular leader with an approval rating of approximately 87%, as evidenced in the recent election that just concluded. However, the tragic incident has only served to bolster his popularity further. The Russian people are likely to attribute this attack to Ukraine and potentially, Ukrainian militants trained by the United States, regardless of who actually carried out the attack.
This belief will provide Vladimir Putin with widespread support from the people of Russia, his cabinet members, the Duma, and other key figures such as Medvedev, all of whom are now expected to fall in line behind any actions Putin decides to take. The situation has created an emotionally charged atmosphere in Moscow and among the Russian people, similar to the outrage experienced by Americans after the 9/11 attacks.
As tensions continue to rise between Russia and NATO, with French President Emmanuel Macron suggesting sending troops to attack Russia, there is a growing concern that this situation could escalate into a full-blown conflict. If Russian leaders have the opportunity to eliminate Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky with a nuclear weapon, they are likely weighing that option heavily.
The path of escalation to nuclear war
This emotional turmoil has provided Russian leaders such as Vladimir Putin and Defense Minister Shoigu with the necessary leeway to retaliate with more aggressive measures. However, this could be playing into the hands of what the West desires – a nuclear attack by Russia.
Since 2014, particularly following the coup in Ukraine, the West has been attempting to provoke Russia into a nuclear attack. This effort has intensified since February 2022 and the start of the special military operation. Over the past two years, there have been numerous attempts by the West to provoke Russia into launching nuclear weapons. The West, led by the United States, desperately needs Putin to nuke Western Europe or even the United States for a variety of reasons related to elections and the approaching collapse of the dollar currency.
The reasoning behind this is that the Democrats are losing their grip on power and are expected to lose the election to Trump. The American people are growing increasingly disillusioned with the Democrats’ policies, leading to discussions of secession, uprisings, revolts, civil wars, and states like Texas defying the federal government. Florida and other states, such as Missouri, have also taken legal action against the Biden administration over issues related to censorship.
The United States’ powers that be are losing their grip, requiring a major emergency as a reason to cancel elections and declare martial law. They need a justification similar to what Zelensky did in Ukraine, which involved shutting down dissident media and halting all elections. It is worth noting that there have been no elections in Ukraine recently, making it ironic when Zelensky questions Russia’s election legitimacy. According to Ukraine’s constitution, there should be elections, but they have been cancelled without reason, effectively turning the country into a dictatorship. This is what the Democrats want for the United States.
However, they need Putin’s cooperation in order to achieve this goal. They want Putin to launch a nuclear attack, which is why the West continues to provoke Russia and push Ukraine to engage in aggressive actions such as flying drones over civilian areas or attacking nuclear power plants. The ultimate aim is to get Putin to react in an escalatory fashion. Unfortunately, a recent mass shooting event has provided ample footage online that could potentially push Putin toward an even more aggressive response. This event serves as a pivotal escalation point towards World War III.
It is evident that the United States was aware of this situation, as evidenced by mainstream media news stories dated March 8, which advised all Americans and British citizens to leave Russia immediately due to an imminent threat of an extremist attack targeting crowds, including theaters. Western intelligence agencies knew about this, even alerting the media. Consequently, numerous media outlets published stories around March 8 and 9, warning Westerners to leave Russia urgently. The details of these warnings have now come true, as there was indeed an imminent threat of an extremist attack on crowds in theaters.
Russia’s response against Ukraine and the West will likely show no mercy
Russia’s leadership has expressed their suspicion that the West may be behind the terrorist attack in Moscow. The speaker emphasized the importance of finding and eliminating all individuals involved in the terrorist attack, regardless of their ideological inspirations. A list was mentioned, calling for the merciless destruction of these terrorists, including officials from the state responsible for the atrocity.
As more Russian leaders speak out, claiming that Ukraine conducted the terrorist attack, critical thinkers question whether this could be a false flag operation carried out by Russia against its own civilians to gain public support for their actions. The possibility of Russia potentially wanting to nuke Europe is also considered. Due to the fog of war, it’s impossible to know the truth.
The question arises: who could be responsible for this incident? Possible culprits include Ukraine, the US, or even Russia itself. However, regardless of who is ultimately found to be behind it, the emotional response from the Russian population will likely be the same – outrage and anger.
At present, it’s probable that many Russians are demanding retaliation against Western cities like Washington DC, Paris, and London. While Putin is generally considered a level-headed leader, he may still face significant domestic political pressure to take dramatic action in response to this event. If Ukraine or the US is discovered as the perpetrator, Putin could find himself caught in an escalation trap, needing to respond in a way that appeases his country’s anger and desire for justice.
In recent times, Russia has been shaken by a series of terrorist attacks targeting its cultural institutions, such as theaters where innocent civilians gather to enjoy performances. These attacks have had a profound psychological impact on the Russian people, who view themselves as culturally enriched, sophisticated, informed, and with a long historical presence. The recent attack on a theater where innocent civilians were watching a performance highlights this issue, as these individuals were not involved in the war effort and had no connection to military operations.
The outrage in Russia over such attacks is immense, as it feels to the Russian people like a direct assault on who they are as a nation. Given the severity of this incident, it is highly unlikely that President Putin will not respond with aggressive retaliatory measures. While it is uncertain whether Russia will resort to using nuclear weapons, they may employ thermobaric weapons against any nation they deem responsible for the attack.
In response to these attacks, Russia has initiated an investigation involving their version of the FBI who are collecting evidence, interviewing witnesses, and making arrests. The Russian people are determined to find justice for those affected by these senseless acts of violence.
France’s Macron has put his nation on a suicide collision path with Russia
This situation has not gone unnoticed by other nations, particularly France under President Macron’s leadership. Macron has threatened to send troops into Russia in an attempt to involve NATO in the conflict and bring the United States into the fray. This strategy is also being pursued by Israel, aiming to draw the US into a war with Iran.
Macron’s actions demonstrate a grave misunderstanding of the historical relationship between France and Russia, particularly during Napoleon’s reign in the early 19th century. The year 1814 stands out as a significant moment when Russian troops occupied Paris after defeating Napoleon, who had invaded Russia. If history is any indication, Russia has the capacity to occupy Paris once again.
Germany lacks the military strength to stand against Russia. France may possess nuclear weapons, but their arsenal pales in comparison to Russia’s stockpile of over 7,000 nuclear warheads. Furthermore, Russia has developed various types of nuclear weapons, including reentry vehicles, hypersonic missiles with nuclear warheads, and hyperglide vehicles, making them nearly impossible to evade or dodge. Russia possesses a range of nuclear weapons, from small to large, and even those with devastating consequences. If Russia were to use these nukes against France, Paris would cease to exist.
President Macron’s actions may be inadvertently provoking Russia, which could lead to disastrous consequences. Given the recent events, Macron should issue an apology to Putin and reconsider his approach. If Russian President Vladimir Putin decides to use these weapons against European military bases, command centers, or cities, the consequences will be felt globally, including in North America where radiation fallout could impact oil, gold, and silver prices as well as the euro and dollar values.
Global consequences of nuclear war with Russia
The potential consequences of this incident are severe, with the possibility of destabilizing western civilization and potentially bringing down the United States due to poor leadership decisions. This is reminiscent of World War One, which was sparked by a single assassination when global conditions were ripe for conflict. The attack on the Moscow concert hall feels like a trigger event that could ignite another world war.
Moving on to the solar eclipse scheduled for April 8th, multiple US states have issued emergency declarations due to the moon’s shadow passing over the country. Local governments are urging citizens to prepare with extra food, water, and emergency supplies just because of the moon’s shadow. This has raised suspicions as nightfall occurs across America every night without causing panic or filling hospitals.
Some speculate that individuals with insider knowledge might use the solar eclipse as a cover to carry out something sinister, perhaps launching an EMP weapon and blaming it on the sun or executing a cyber attack on the power grid and accusing Russia. The excessive amount of emergency preparation for April 8th has led to concerns that there may be ulterior motives at play.
Ideally, the solar eclipse would only last for a few minutes, after which everyone can go home safely. However, fears persist that someone might use this event as an opportunity to cause chaos or incite an uprising, possibly trying to blame President Trump for it. As tensions continue to rise both domestically and internationally, it is crucial for world leaders to work towards de-escalating the situation and finding peaceful resolutions to ongoing conflicts.
The world is being plunged into conflict
With Russia’s actions pushing the world closer to the brink of potential nuclear war in Europe, millions of lives are at stake, including those of French, British, German, Polish, and Romanian people due to military bases in their countries. The situation has become increasingly dire as the possibility of World War III looms ever larger on the horizon.
As nations respond to Russia’s actions with their own military force, the potential destruction of Western Europe and Israel becomes a very real possibility. This could lead to chaos in Israel, prompting Iran to consider nuclear attacks on the US Navy. Additionally, China may take advantage of the situation, potentially invading Taiwan or other territories. The world could be on the brink of a domino effect that could lead to the destruction of Western civilization as we know it, all because of an incident in a Moscow concert hall.
In light of these developments, experts are urging everyone to remain vigilant and prepare for potential escalations over the next few days. In case of a nuclear war breaking out in Europe, essential items such as iodine, garden seeds, gold, and silver should be stocked up on, as these items will likely become scarce once the conflict begins.
As we witness these events unfold, it is crucial that we join together in prayer for divine intervention. Now more than ever, God’s hand may be able to make a critical difference in averting disaster. As a nation and as humanity, we must acknowledge our sins against God, life, and creation. However, it appears that many people are still unwilling to accept the teachings of God or change their ways. We live in a world where apathy and disregard for divine guidance have led us down a dangerous path.

Additional updates on Russia’s response will be provided during Brighteon Broadcast News on Monday morning, while the speaker reminds everyone to prioritize their safety and well-being.

“If this was something planned by Ukraine, then it means it was something planned by Ukraine under the direction of the CIA to carry out an American policy objective, which seeks the strategic defeat of Russia,” the former US Marines intelligence officer said in a video comment for Sputnik.
From RT’s editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan: “We already know the names of the perpetrators. We have seen their faces and know what they are saying during interrogations. (We are not publishing to avoid disrupting the investigation.)
And immediately it becomes clear why yesterday American media were shouting in unison that it was ISIS. Because it’s not ISIS.
The perpetrators are simply chosen to convince the gullible global public that it is ISIS. It’s a simple sleight of hand. The level of a street corner shell game. So here’s the thing. It’s not ISIS at all. It’s Ukrainians. And the fact that even before the arrests, before the perpetrators’ faces and names were known, Western intelligence agencies began to persuade the population that it was ISIS—that’s what ignited the fire under this thief’s hat. It’s not ISIS. It’s a well-coordinated team from several other, also widely known, abbreviations.”
As a recent CIA Director, Mike Pompeo, said of his time at the CIA: “I was the CIA director. We lied, we cheated, we stole. We had entire training courses. It reminds you of the glory of the American experiment.”

SUNDAY, FEB 18, 2024
Authored by Jeffrey Sachs via CommonDreams.org,
There are three basic problems with the CIA: its objectives, methods, and unaccountability.
Its operational objectives are whatever the CIA or the President of the United States defines to be in the U.S. interest at a given time, irrespective of international law or U.S. law.
Its methods are secretive and duplicitous.
Its unaccountability means that the CIA and president run foreign policy without any public scrutiny. Congress is a doormat, a sideshow.
As a recent CIA Director, Mike Pompeo, said of his time at the CIA: “I was the CIA director. We lied, we cheated, we stole. We had entire training courses. It reminds you of the glory of the American experiment.”
The CIA was established in 1947 as the successor to the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). The OSS had performed two distinct roles in World War II, intelligence and subversion. The CIA took over both roles. On the one hand, the CIA was to provide intelligence to the US Government. On the other, the CIA was to subvert the “enemy,” that is, whomever the president or CIA defined as the enemy, using a wide range of measures: assassinations, coups, staged unrest, arming of insurgents, and other means.
It is the latter role that has proved devastating to global stability and the U.S. rule of law. It is a role that the CIA continues to pursue today. In effect, the CIA is a secret army of the U.S., capable of creating mayhem across the world with no accountability whatsoever.
When President Dwight Eisenhower decided that Africa’s rising political star, democratically elected Patrice Lumumba of Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo), was the “enemy,” the CIA conspired in his 1961 assassination, thus undermining the democratic hopes for Africa. He would hardly be the last African president brought down by the CIA.
The extent of the continuing mayhem resulting from CIA operations gone awry is astounding.
In its 77-year history, the CIA has been held to serious public account just once, in 1975. In that year, Idaho Senator Frank Church led a Senate investigation that exposed the CIA’s shocking rampage of assassinations, coups, destabilization, surveillance, and Mengele-style torture and medical “experiments.”
The expose by the Church Committee of the CIA’s shocking malfeasance has recently been chronicled in a superb book by the investigative reporter James Risen, The Last Honest Man: The CIA, the FBI, the Mafia, and the Kennedys―and One Senator’s Fight to Save Democracy.
That single episode of oversight occurred because of a rare confluence of events.
In the year before the Church Committee, the Watergate scandal had toppled Richard Nixon and weakened the White House. As successor to Nixon, Gerald Ford was unelected, a former Congressman, and reluctant to oppose the oversight prerogatives of the Congress. The Watergate scandal, investigated by the Senate Ervin Committee, had also empowered the Senate and demonstrated the value of Senate oversight of Executive Branch abuses of power. Crucially, the CIA was newly led by Director William Colby, who wanted to clean up the CIA operations. Also, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, author of pervasive illegalities also exposed by the Church committee, had died in 1972.
In December 1974, investigative reporter Seymour Hersh, then as now a great reporter with sources inside the CIA, published an account of illegal CIA intelligence operations against the U.S. antiwar movement. The Senate Majority Leader at the time, Mike Mansfield, a leader of character, then appointed Church to investigate the CIA. Church himself was a brave, honest, intelligent, independent-minded, and intrepid Senator, characteristics chronically in short supply in U.S. politics.
If only the CIA’s rogue operations had been consigned to history as a result of the crimes exposed by the Church Committee, or at the least had brought the CIA under the rule of law and public accountability. But that was not to be. The CIA has had the last laugh —or better said, has brought the world to tears—by maintaining its preeminent role in U.S. foreign policy, including overseas subversion.
Since 1975, the CIA has run secretive operations backing Islamic jihadists in Afghanistan that utterly wrecked Afghanistan while giving rise to al-Qaeda. The CIA has likely run secretive operations in the Balkans against Serbia, in the Caucuses against Russia, and in Central Asia targeting China, all deploying CIA-backed jihadists. In the 2010s, the CIA ran deadly operations to topple Syria’s Bashir al-Assad, again with Islamic jihadists. For at least 20 years, the CIA has been deeply involved in fomenting the growing catastrophe in Ukraine, including the violent overthrow of Ukraine’s President Viktor Yanukovych in February 2014 that triggered the devastating war now engulfing Ukraine.
What do we know of these operations? Only the parts that whistleblowers, a few intrepid investigative reporters, a handful of brave scholars, and some foreign governments have been willing or able to tell us, with all of these potential witnesses knowing that they might face severe retribution from the U.S. government. There has been little to no accountability by the U.S. government itself, or meaningful oversight or restraint imposed by Congress. On the contrary, the government has become ever-more obsessively secretive, pursuing aggressive legal actions against disclosures of classified information, even when, or especially when, that information describes the illegal actions by the government itself.
Once in a while, a former U.S. official spills the beans, such as when Zbigniew Brzezinski revealed that he had induced Jimmy Carter to assign the CIA to train Islamic jihadists to destabilize the government of Afghanistan, with the aim of inducing the Soviet Union to invade that country.
In the case of Syria, we learned from a few stories in the New York Times in 2016 and 2017 of the CIA’s subversive operations to destabilize Syria and overthrow Assad, as ordered by President Barack Obama. Here is the case of a dreadfully misguided CIA operation, blatantly in violation of international law, that has led to a decade of mayhem, an escalating regional war, hundreds of thousands of deaths, and millions of displaced people, and yet there has not been a single honest acknowledgment of this CIA-led disaster by the White House or Congress.
In the case of Ukraine, we know that the U.S. played a major covert role in the violent coup that brought down Yanukovych and that swept Ukraine into a decade of bloodshed but to this day, we don’t know the details. Russia offered the world a window into the coup by intercepting and then posting a call between Victoria Nuland, then U.S. Assistant Secretary of State (now Under-Secretary of State) and U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt (now Assistant Secretary of State), in which they plot the post-coup government. Following the coup, the CIA covertly trained special operations forces of the post-coup regime the U.S. had helped bring to power. The U.S. government has been mum about the CIA’s covert operations in Ukraine.
We have good reason to believe that CIA operatives carried out the destruction of the Nord Stream pipeline, as per Seymour Hersh, who is now an independent reporter. Unlike in 1975, when Hersh was with the New York Times at a time when the paper still tried to hold the government to account, the Times does not even deign to look into Hersh’s account.
Holding the CIA to public account is of course a steep uphill struggle. Presidents and the Congress don’t even try. The mainstream media don’t investigate the CIA, preferring instead to quote “senior unnamed officials” and the official cover-up. Are the mainstream media outlets lazy, suborned, afraid of advertising revenues from the military-industrial complex, threatened,
ignorant, or all of the above? Who knows.
There is a tiny glimmer of hope. Back in 1975, the CIA was led by a reformer. Today, the CIA is led by William Burns, one of America’s long-standing leading diplomats. Burns knows the truth about Ukraine, since he served as Ambassador to Russia in 2008 and cabled Washington about the grave error of pushing NATO enlargement to Ukraine. Given Burns’ stature and diplomatic accomplishments, perhaps he would support the urgently needed accountability.
The extent of the continuing mayhem resulting from CIA operations gone awry is astounding. In Afghanistan, Haiti, Syria, Venezuela, Kosovo, Ukraine, and far beyond, the needless deaths, instability, and destruction unleashed by CIA subversion continues to this day. The mainstream media, academic institutions, and Congress should be investigating these operations to the best of their ability and demanding the release of documents to enable democratic accountability.
Next year is the 50th anniversary of the Church Committee hearings. Fifty years on, with the precedent, inspiration, and guidance of the Church Committee itself, it’s urgently time to open the blinds, expose the truth about the U.S.-led mayhem, and begin a new era in which U.S. foreign policy becomes transparent, accountable, subject to the rule of law both domestic and international, and directed towards global peace rather than subversion of supposed enemies.
The CIA spied on him. Told the NY Times that he was planning an interview with Putin. The Russians got cold feet and cancelled the first scheduled interview.
The CIA operated against the constitution and spied on a US citizen. We are not shocked because readers of this blog know this has been going on for decades.
A “secretive” office of the US spy agency has reportedly recovered nine “non-human craft”
“There’s at least nine vehicles. There were different circumstances for different ones,” one of the sources said. “It has to do with the physical condition they’re in. If it crashes, there’s a lot of damage done. Others, two of them, are completely intact.”

American spies have managed to recover at least nine potentially alien vehicles, two of them “completely intact,” the Daily Mail reported on Tuesday, citing three anonymous sources.
The sources, supposedly briefed on top secret operations, told the UK outlet that the main player in the retrievals has been the Office of Global Access (OGA), a branch of the CIA Science and Technology Directorate established in 2003.
“There’s at least nine vehicles. There were different circumstances for different ones,” one of the sources said. “It has to do with the physical condition they’re in. If it crashes, there’s a lot of damage done. Others, two of them, are completely intact.”
The CIA has a system to detect unidentified flying objects (UFO) “while they’re still cloaked” and helps special US military units salvage the wreckage if “non-human craft” land, crash, or are brought down, the source added.
Another anonymous source described the OGA’s role as “basically a facilitator” for US operatives to access areas where they would normally not be allowed.
“They are very clever at being able to get anywhere in the world they want to,” the second source said.
Most of OGA’s operations involve “stray nuclear weapons, downed satellites or adversaries’ technology,” according to the Mail, but some missions have involved retrieval of UFOs – or as the US government now prefers to call them, “Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena” (UAP).
Aliens are living among us – Stanford professor
“The task at hand is simply to get it into custody and protect the secrecy of it,” one source said. “The actual physical retrieval is by the military. But it’s not kept under military control, because they have to keep too many records. So they start moving it out fairly quickly into private hands.”
Two of the sources said that the OGA coordinates with Delta Force or SEAL teams working under the US Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), or the Nuclear Emergency Support Team (NEST), to recover the potentially alien craft.
“We have nothing for you on this,” JSOC said in a written response to the British outlet. A NEST spokesperson said that the agency’s personnel “encounter materials from unknown origins on a regular basis,” but have “never encountered any material related to UAP.”
One of the sources described the CIA as the “portfolio manager” of the UFO “crash retrieval operation.” Recovered radioactive materials are sent to national laboratories run by the Department of Energy, while “aerospace-defense industry” contractors handle “other non-radioactive material – and intact craft,” the source claimed.
After three military and intelligence whistleblowers testified about the UFO retrieval program to US Congress in July, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer sponsored a bill that would require the government to disclose “recovered technologies of unknown origin and biological evidence of non-human intelligence.” This UAP Disclosure Act was adopted as part of the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act in September.
Abstract Expressionism was seen as the most free and extreme form of artistic expression – the antithesis of Soviet rigidity.
A reminder that modern art was a CIA psy-op. Former CIA officials came clean on this during the ’90s, confirming that the agency used abstract art by Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and others to promote American culture during the Cold War.
The intent was to portray America as a bastion of intellectual and creative freedom. This was to rebut Soviet assertions that the U.S. was “culturally barren”, and to contrast the cultural confinement of the Soviet empire, where artists had been restricted to painting Soviet realism since the 1930s. Abstract Expressionism was seen as the most free and extreme form of artistic expression – the antithesis of Soviet rigidity.
Modern art therefore became a weapon in the cultural war against communism. Beginning in the 1950s, the CIA secretly funded a group called the Congress for Cultural Freedom, through which it funnelled money to international art shows, literary magazines and operated dozens of offices around the globe – all with the explicit goal of promoting American Abstract Expressionism. These efforts, coined operation “long leash”, were meant to demonstrate to disaffected Soviets and European intellectuals that American painters were free to invent, and offend; unlike under tyranny, where “artists are made the slaves and tools of the state”, as Eisenhower once said.
Paradoxically, at the time the works of Pollock and de Kooning were not even broadly popular with the American public, and earlier, more open attempts to promote new American art by the State Department had been widely mocked. Even President Truman famously said, ‘If that’s art, I’m a Hottentot”, when visiting an exhibit purchased by the DOS. Because of this, and because it would have been impossible to attain support for such a project through Congress, the CIA’s covert operation was necessary to push Abstract Expressionism in secret. Do you think this had a meaningful impact on establishing abstract art as a legitimate movement, or would it have flourished anyway on its own merits?
Elon gets it. The NY Times is a propaganda machine of the USA. The CIA runs its editorial room. Fake news factory.

In 1967, the CIA’s covert use of the National Student Association to spread countermessages to communism was revealed by a college dropout named Michael Wood.2 The revelation sent shockwaves through the U.S., and as journalists started to pull at the strings, the the CIA’s covert propaganda operations unraveled.
Journalists discovered that the CIA had set up nonprofit foundations to funnel taxpayer money into philanthropic foundations that then sent the CIA’s “donations” to organizations that had joined the CIA’s payroll to promote government-sponsored propaganda
These included youth organizations and student groups, church groups, public radio and news organizations. Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., slammed the CIA’s covert propaganda activities, arguing the agency had created a “credibility chasm” within public opinion — a gap that could not and would not be bridged unless the government made clear that it would “fill the chasm with the truth”
The CIA was never reined in and is more involved in propaganda activities today than ever before
While many still have not realized it, we are at war, and the aggressors are government intelligence and security agencies that have turned their weapon of choice — information — against their own citizens
The video above features a 1967 CBS special report titled “In the Pay of the CIA: An American Dilemma,”1 hosted by Mike Wallace. It examines how the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was secretly paying students, labour organizations, broadcasting networks and other organizations to do their bidding.
CBS News correspondents interview several of the people who at the time had received secret CIA payments and the implications these activities have for the American way of life.
Gloria Steinem, for example, who headed the Independent Research Service, was paid by the CIA to send American students to attend and represent American values at communist youth festivals overseas, as was Philip Sherburne, former president of the National Student Association.
A Condensed History
The National Security Act of 1947, signed by President Truman, created the CIA, the National Security Council, the Office of Secretary of Defense and the U.S. Air Force.3 As explained by the Office of the Historian,4 the Act “was a major reorganization of the foreign policy and military establishments of the U.S. government.”
The CIA was an outgrowth of the World War II era Office of Strategic Services and several small post-war intelligence organizations, and as noted by Wallace:
“Since the beginning, the CIA has suffered a personality split, because in addition to intelligence, the Security Act of 1947 orders the CIA to ‘perform other functions and duties as directed by the President and his National Security Council.’ That phrase has become a sort of blank check, authorizing CIA excursions into everything from simple propaganda to the overthrow of unfriendly governments.“
Wallace goes on to explain how the CIA ended up with fingers in so many pies. First, it set up several nondescript nonprofit foundations, the function of which was to funnel taxpayer money from the CIA to other, real foundations involved in real-world philanthropy.
However, in return for CIA funds, these foundations “agreed to become conduits for central intelligence,” and funnelled the exact dollar amounts received on to other organizations that, in the 1940s, ’50s and ’60s, joined the CIA’s payroll to promote government-sponsored propaganda.
“The CIA has corrupted the stream of truth, objectivity and academic learning,” Sen. Wayne Morse told CBS News, “and it must be removed from all activities, except the very limited activity of what we know as intelligence activity, the field of spying and espionage.”
Another senator, Eugene McCarthy, was also critical of the CIA’s use of students and church groups to manipulate public opinion. He said that he felt there was “empire building” going on within the CIA — a statement that rings all the more true today.
Sen. John Stennis, member of the CIA Watchdog Subcommittee, defended the CIA’s actions, reminding the CBS audience about the climate in which the agency was founded. In 1954, the U.S. Congress passed a bill outlawing communism, and the CIA was protecting American liberty and democracy.
Former CIA director Allen Dulles defended the agency’s behavior as well, citing the need to manage the threat of communism. The counterargument presented by critics was that by using covert propaganda techniques, the U.S. government was using the same strategies as the enemy, thereby undermining the idea of America being a country dedicated to free speech and the diversity of ideas.
At the end of the day, the overarching message of the CBS News report was that the CIA needed to change with changing times, clean up its act and get out of the covert propaganda business, as its interventions were harming the American image of being a free and open country.
Operation Mockingbird Is Alive and Well
Unfortunately, the CIA was never reined in, and its propaganda activities have only expanded and become more sophisticated over time. The 1976 Church Committee investigation (chaired by Senator Frank Church) exposed how the CIA had corrupted the media by paying journalists to promote the agency’s narratives.
The program, called Operation Mockingbird, was officially dismantled, but while the operational name may have been retired, there’s plenty of evidence to suggest the CIA never discontinued its media influence.5
In fact, we have evidence the CIA is controlling mainstream media to this day, and it is doing so with unprecedented efficiency, as it can now push its narratives out through the three global news agencies, which are responsible for crafting and curating most of the news disseminated worldwide.
The only thing that has changed is the CIA’s narrative. Whereas in the past it was dedicated to undermining communism, today, the CIA is a disinformation fountainhead for an un-elected global Deep State that is hellbent on implementing a technocratic, totalitarian One World Government, the tyranny of which makes communism pale in comparison.
The CIA is now neck-deep in a global psychological operation (psyop) to ensure the successful implementation of The Great Reset and the Fourth Industrial Revolution — two terms that describe different aspects of the same agenda of enslavement. And the CIA is not alone in this endeavor.
The FBI is also in on the action, as are most of the world’s intelligence agencies. They are all pushing the same Great Reset and Fourth Industrial Revolution narratives, the aim of which is the technocratic control of the global population. That is why we are seeing the same narratives playing all over the world including the Orwellian argument that we must censor to protect democracy.
A New Type of War
While many still have not realized it, we are at war. The aggressors are government intelligence and security agencies that have turned their weapon of choice — information — against their own citizens.
And, while the organizations doing the CIA’s dirty work may have changed, the basic organizational structure is the same as it was in 1967. Taxpayer money gets funneled through various federal departments and agencies into the hands of non-governmental agencies that carry out censorship activities as directed. As recently reported by investigative journalists Alex Gutentag and Michael Shellenberger:6
“The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), and the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) are non-governmental organizations, their leaders say.
When they demand more censorship of online hate speech, as they are currently doing of X, formerly Twitter, those NGOs are doing it as free citizens and not, say, as government agents.
But the fact of the matter is that the US and other Western governments fund ISD, the UK government indirectly funds CCDH, and, for at least 40 years, ADL spied on its enemies and shared intelligence with the US, Israel and other governments.
The reason all of this matters is that ADL’s advertiser boycott against X may be an effort by governments to regain the ability to censor users on X that they had under Twitter before Musk’s takeover last November.
Internal Twitter and Facebook messages show that representatives of the US government, including the White House, FBI, Department of Homeland Security (DHS), as well as the UK government, successfully demanded Facebook and Twitter censorship of their users over the last several years.”
Censorship by Proxy
What we have now is government censorship by proxy, a deeply anti-American activity that has become standard practice, not just by intelligence and national security agencies but federal agencies of all stripes, including our public health agencies.
September 8, 2023, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a lower court’s injunction banning the White House, the surgeon general, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the FBI from influencing social media companies to remove so-called “disinformation.”7
According to the judges’ decision,8 “CDC officials provided direct guidance to the platforms on the application of the platforms’ internal policies and moderation activities” by telling them what was, and was not, misinformation, asking for changes to platforms’ moderation policies and directing platforms to take specific actions.
“Ultimately, the CDC’s guidance informed, if not directly affected, the platforms’ moderation decisions,” the judges said, so, “although not plainly coercive, the CDC officials likely significantly encouraged the platforms’ moderation decisions, meaning they violated the First Amendment.”
Unfortunately, as mentioned earlier, the U.S. government is not acting alone. Governments around the world and international organizations like the World Health Organization are all engaged in censorship, and when it comes to medical information, most Big Tech platforms are taking their lead from the WHO. And, if the WHO’s pandemic treaty9 is enacted, then the WHO will have sole authority to dictate truth. Everything else will be censored.
YouTube to Ban All Types of Medical ‘Misinformation’
YouTube, for example, which censored medical information that went against CDC guidance during the COVID pandemic, recently announced it is committed to eliminating virtually all medical “misinformation” that contradicts the WHO:10
“While specific medical guidance can change over time as we learn more, our goal is to ensure that when it comes to areas of well-studied scientific consensus, YouTube is not a platform for distributing information that could harm people.
Moving forward, YouTube will streamline dozens of our existing medical misinformation guidelines to fall under three categories – Prevention, Treatment, and Denial.
These policies will apply to specific health conditions, treatments, and substances where content contradicts local health authorities or the World Health Organization (WHO) … Here’s what the framework will look like:
Prevention misinformation: We will remove content that contradicts health authority guidance on the prevention and transmission of specific health conditions, and on the safety and efficacy of approved vaccines. For example, this encompasses content that promotes a harmful substance for disease prevention.
Treatment misinformation: We will remove content that contradicts health authority guidance on treatments for specific health conditions … Examples include content that encourages unproven remedies in place of seeking medical attention for specific conditions, like promoting caesium chloride as a treatment for cancer.
Denial misinformation: We will remove content that disputes the existence of specific health conditions. This covers content that denies people have died from COVID-19 …
In applying our updated approach, cancer treatment misinformation fits the framework — the public health risk is high as cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, there is stable consensus about safe cancer treatments … and it’s a topic that’s prone to misinformation.
Starting today and ramping up in the coming weeks, we will begin removing content that promotes cancer treatments proven to be harmful or ineffective, or content that discourages viewers from seeking professional medical treatment.”
The UN’s War on Misinformation
The United Nations is also deeply engaged in fighting the “‘infodemic’ of misinformation,“11 and has enlisted a cadre of “rapid response” fact checkers to counter undesirable views, wherever they appear.
The UN has also partnered with private businesses, telecommunications companies, civil society groups, media and individual journalists to combat misinformation.
The UN secretary-general António Guterres’ has even gone on record saying “hate speech” is a “weapon of war” that must be brought under control to achieve the UN’s peacekeeping aims. In July 2022, he made the following remarks to the Security Council, clearly demonstrating that the UN views censorship as a necessity for world peace:12
“The United Nations must play a more deliberate role as an information actor in conflict environments. We must be seen as a trusted source of information by providing engaging, factual content, facilitating inclusive dialogue, demanding the removal of harmful speech, calling leaders to account and promoting the voices of peace and unity.”
Just what is “harmful speech”? Why, anything that counters the globalist narrative — “the voices of unity” — of course. In classic Orwellian doublespeak, UN leadership is calling dissent (i.e., “hate speech”) “a weapon of war,” when in reality, censorship is the weapon.
This kind of rhetoric tells you that we are in fact at war, and the public has been declared the enemy of the globalist cabal, the members of which have infiltrated all the key national agencies and international organizations now being used to browbeat us into compliance with a slave agenda.
In the video above, under-secretary-general for the UN’s global communications talks about how “social media is being weaponized to provoke the worst in human nature” (there’s that war lingo again), and how the UN is “pushing Big Tech” to “bring balance to our information systems.”
In other words, Big Tech is being pushed to give the technocrats a battlefield edge by eliminating the “weapons” of everyday people (who greatly outnumber them), namely their voices.
Why Are We Being Censored?
https://www.sott.net/embed/1nUMn00Mld729Y8fmEn1nF8v7pS
While globalists and technocrats would have you believe that censorship is all about protecting people by making sure everything they see is accurate and truthful, the exact opposite is actually happening. The Deep State players (whether they recognize themselves as belonging to that exclusive club or not) are the ones spreading false information to lull you into compliance with an agenda that is so utterly horrifying that no sane, rational person would ever go along with it.
I’m talking about The Great Reset, the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, the 2030 Agenda and the One Health agenda. These and several other terms all refer to one comprehensive, worldwide plot to create a global slave society under the rule of a centralized world government run by un-elected technocrats.
Everything we have seen and experienced over the last three years is part of that agenda, including the global push for vaccine mandates. It is no surprise then, to find out that 14 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals involve compulsory vaccinations. As noted in the August 2021 issue of Globalization and Health:13
“Immunization directly impacts health (SDG3) and brings a contribution to 14 out of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as ending poverty, reducing hunger, and reducing inequalities. Therefore, immunization is recognized to play a central role in reaching the SDGs, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).”
Nothing is happening by accident. It is all part of a movement toward a global totalitarianism centered on the control and suppression of populations. But to get there, they must control the flow of information. Truth-tellers cannot be tolerated because, again, there are billions of us, and only thousands, perhaps tens of thousands, of them.
Once the technocratic system of control is fully in place, 24/7 surveillance and artificial intelligence-driven algorithms will keep people in check, but until then, the globalists need our cooperation to install and implement the prerequisite surveillance and control systems. Keeping people from understanding the big picture is the greatest weapon in their arsenal.
There is also plenty of evidence indicating they’d prefer to have far fewer of us around, and preventing you from accessing truthful information about health and medicine will ensure you get and stay sick (which is profitable for them) and ultimately die sooner rather than later (which is the goal).
Once you understand the grand plan, you can see how it’s being implemented in stages, and why all this censorship is needed, from their point of view. At that point you have a decision to make: Go along with their program to own you and all of your descendants, in perpetuity, or take ownership of your own life and peacefully move in the opposite direction, toward decentralized, uncensored, privacy-based systems of all kinds.

Sept 11, 2023
Former Head of the FBI confirms that 9/11 was orchestrated at the highest level by the U.S. Government. Oklahoma City bombing, JFK, RFK assassinations, World Trade Center and Child Sex Trafficking by the Military, CIA and Politicians are all huge coverups.
It is confirmed through documented evidence that the FBI had advanced knowledge of the 9/11 attacks and did nothing to prevent this from occurring. He goes on to say that It is very obvious that this whole thing has been orchestrated by the powers at be, at the highest level of our government and he wants the world to know about it. They are using terrorism as an excuse to take away our constitutional rights and civil liberties, murdering thousands of innocent Americans.
9/11 was all orchestrated. The Twin Towers and Building 7 were imploded. The planes did not bring the buildings down. They were imploded deliberately. In the Oklahoma City bombing, they recovered a bomb inside the building that did not go off and it was made by the U.S. Army. This was another U.S. Government terrorist attack against Americans on U.S. soil.
As a private investigator when he retired from the FBI he took on the Jeffrey Robert MacDonald case who was an American medical doctor and United States Army captain who was convicted in August 1979 of murdering his pregnant wife and two daughters in February 1970 while serving as an Army Special Forces physician. During his investigations into the MacDonald case, he received a signed confession from Helena Stoeckley stating that Jeffrey MacDonald did not do it and that it was her Satanic cult group that committed these murders. The courts ignored the confession from her. Helena Stoeckley went on to confess that this was a large-scale drug operation that was being covered up.
They were flying drugs in plastic bags in the body cavities of the dead GIs coming out of Southeast Asia. There were military Generals involved, other military personnel officers, Police Officers and investigators for the Army. He also worked the Franklin Coverup Case involving illegal Government drug operations and Satanic cults. They were taking children out of orphanages and foster homes privately flying them to Washington DC for sex orgies with U.S. Congressmen and Senators. This was filmed and pictures were taken for blackmail control. His investigation of the Franklin case led him to a Washington DC organization called “The Finders” which is a CIA covert operation for kidnapping children and trafficking them internationally around the world. The children are used for body parts, satanic ceremonies, human sacrifices and sex slaves. In 1997 he received a tip from an airline employee that 210 children flew out of Denver to New York and then to Paris. The airline employee asked the female adult and two male adults who were with the children, who are these kids? The woman said, “Child Protective Services, mind your own business.” The employee disappeared. Some of these children are auctioned off and sold for up to $50,000 dollars each, their ages are between 2 years old and 21 years old. This was all reported to the United States Customs and is on record with them, but nothing is being done about it.
It is all being covered up. We are at war, a war against evil. They have deceived us. They have terrorized us. They have murdered us. They have raped our children. They must be destroyed. They are the Committee of 300 and we must unite to bring them down before they unleash more terror and death upon us. Be brave, protect the innocent children.
