Fake News covers up CIA Crime Family rampage as real journalist Julian Assange becomes Easter’s sacrificial lamb





Words enable thought. So if you corrupt words, you can alter and corrupt people’s thoughts. Words are the parents of thought. And thought is the father to action. There’s a reason the Bible speaks of “the word” with such respect.

If you don’t have a word for something, it makes it hard to think about it. And it’s worse if you have the wrong word. They’re trying to corrupt the language to limit what people think and do. ~ Doug Casey

How did America get to be over $43 trillion dollars in debt to the Federal Reserve Bank?  Well, one reason is that we are funding two separate governments.  There is the Main Government, the one that controls the Treasury, Homeland Security, National Security and Foreign and Domestic Policy and life and death decisions like war.  Then there is the “elected” government who do nothing but divert attention from the Main Government through constant appearances on the ultimate reality show hosted on TV.

The deeply entrenched, unpunished and unaccountable criminals who compose the Main Government are actually traitors to America dragging the US into unending wars to benefit foreign nations and destroy the American way of life.  The ugly dark recesses of the Swamp have birthed the most vile, disgusting, putrid forms of deathlike-life imaginable.  These Swamp denizens converged with the Bush’s CIA Crime Family that is now on a global rampage.

The gauntlet was cast September 11, 2001 with the false flag attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, followed by a false flag weapons-grade anthrax attack on congressional Democrats.  These false flag attacks opened the door for an all-out attack on the American Constitution and Bill of Rights.  Hence forth, torture, rendition and preemptive wars using banned chemical weapons, mass spying on American citizens were foisted upon the American people.

No vile, illegal, Dark Ages form of human torture and debasement was off the table.  A new day had dawned.  The permanent state of the “elected government” is obfuscation and necrosis. Powers of the purse and all powers that are derived therein had been ceded to the “Main Government” to be meted out to the various Think Tanks who craft ALL American policy on behalf of foreign interests. 

The takeover of the American government goes way back to Christmas Eve 1913, with the illegal formation of the Federal Reserve Bank under President Woodrow Wilson.  America has been at war and in debt to the Central Bank ever since.  According to History.com:


Excerpt:

The CIA, or Central Intelligence Agency, is the U.S. government agency tasked primarily with gathering intelligence and international security information from foreign countries. The controversial spy agency’s history dates back to World War II, and it played a key role in U.S. efforts to combat the Axis powers during that conflict, and in the Cold War that followed. Though shrouded in secrecy, some CIA activities—such as covert military and cybersecurity operations—have drawn public scrutiny and criticism…

But our government’s first large-scale institutional foray into spycraft started during World War II, after the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Declassified government documents suggest that our military should have been better prepared for the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Indeed, Naval Intelligence—an espionage division of the U.S. Navy—had reportedly cracked Japanese military and diplomatic codes, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had observed Japanese diplomats stationed in Hawaii engaged in suspicious activities in the weeks leading up to the attack.

However, WHAT WAS SORELY LACKING WAS A CENTRALIZED AGENCY WITHIN THE GOVERNMENT THAT COULD SORT THROUGH INFORMATION GATHERED FROM SPIES working on behalf of the country, analyze it and report it to relevant officials.

With that in mind, President Franklin D. Roosevelt established the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the forerunner to today’s CIA, and appointed New York lawyer and World War I hero General William J. Donovan to head the fledgling agency. The original mandate of the OSS was to collect and analyze “strategic information” for use in war.

Hmm, isn’t that odd?  The CIA was established after “Naval Intelligence—an espionage division of the U.S. Navy—had reportedly cracked Japanese military and diplomatic codes, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had observed Japanese diplomats stationed in Hawaii engaged in suspicious activities in the weeks leading up to the attack” but that information failed to reach the President. 

Just like 9-11 the FBI and foreign intelligence as well as interpreters were screaming “something is” coming, RED ALERT and they were ignored by the Bush Administration.  After Pearl Harbor the intelligence agency (OSS) found that “WHAT WAS SORELY LACKING WAS A CENTRALIZED AGENCY WITHIN THE GOVERNMENT THAT COULD SORT THROUGH INFORMATION GATHERED FROM SPIES working on behalf of the country, analyze it and report it to relevant officials.

After 9-11 the same findings led to the creation of the Orwellian “Department of Homeland Security” to gather the intelligence from all the other agencies and “report it to relevant” officials.  Those “relevant” officials being the Deep State.  President Roosevelt was believed to be assassinated by the OSS.  From Criminal Element:

Excerpt:

In April 1945, the end of World War II was finally in sight. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, recently elected to an unprecedented fourth term as president, was at his Warm Springs, Georgia, retreat, sitting for a painting. He reminded the artist that she only had 15 more minutes to work, then complained of a sudden, blinding headache, lost consciousness, and died…

The suspects are fascinating as well. Bill Hanson, in his book Closely Guarded Secrets, lays blame on the Nazis. Colonel Prouty says that Stalin advised presidential son Elliott Roosevelt that the “Churchill gang” had his father murdered, because they were afraid FDR’s postwar plans would destroy British influence around the globe.

This was accomplished by a program of poisoning begun at the famous Yalta Conference and perhaps continued at Warm Springs. Emanuel Josephson, author of The Strange Death of Franklin D. Roosevelt, points out that one of Roosevelt’s closest aides, General Edwin Watson, became suddenly ill and died on the return from Yalta, the implication being that he had been poisoned as well.

FDR had just been re-elected for his fourth term and his new Vice President, Truman was chosen by the Democratic Party.  After FDR’s death, President Truman then abolished the OSS and created the CIA.  By the 1960’s the CIA had become an extremely powerful, unaccountable force.  From Geopolitics:

Excerpt:

The CIA Takeover of America in the 1960s is the Story of Our Times

“We’re all puppets,” the suspect [Sirhan Sirhan] replied, with more truth than he could have understood at that moment.” – Lisa Pease, quoting from the LAPD questioning of Sirhan

When Senator Robert Kennedy was assassinated on June 5, 1968, the American public fell into an hypnotic trance in which they have remained ever since. The overwhelming majority accepted what was presented by government authorities as an open and shut case that a young Palestinian American, Sirhan Sirhan, had murdered RFK because of his support for Israel, a false accusation whose ramifications echo down the years. That this was patently untrue and was contradicted by overwhelming evidence made no difference.

Sirhan did not kill Robert Kennedy, yet he remains in jail to this very day.  Robert Kennedy, Jr., who was 14 years old at the time of his father’s death, has visited Sirhan in prison, claims he is innocent, and believes there was another gunman.  Paul Schrade, an aide to the senator and the first person shot that night, also says Sirhan didn’t do it. Both have plenty of evidence.  And they are not alone.

There is a vast body of documented evidence to prove this, an indisputably logical case marshaled by serious writers and researchers. Lisa Pease is the latest.  It is a reason why a group of 60 prominent Americans has recently called for a reopening of, not just this case, but those of JFK, MLK, and Malcom X.  The blood of these men cries out for the revelation of the truth that the United States national security state and its media accomplices have fought so mightily to keep hidden for so many years.

That they have worked so hard at this reveals how dangerous the truth about these assassinations still is to this secret government that wages propaganda war against the American people and real wars around the world

It is a government of Democrats, Republicans, and their intelligence allies working together today to confuse the American people and provoke Russia in a most dangerous game that could lead to nuclear war, a possibility that so frightened JFK and RFK after the Cuban Missile Crisis that they devoted themselves to ending the Cold War, reconciling with the Soviet Union, abolishing nuclear weapons, reining in of the power of the CIA, and withdrawing from VietnamTHAT IS WHY THEY WERE KILLED.

The web of deceit surrounding the now officially debunked Democratic led Russia-gate propaganda operation that has strengthened Trump to double-down on his anti-Russia operations (a Democratic goal) is an example of the perfidious and sophisticated mutuality of this game of mass mind-control.  

The killing of the Kennedys and today’s new Cold War and war against terror are two ends of a linked intelligence operation.  Moreover, more than any other assassination of the 1960s, it is the killing of Bobby Kennedy that has remained shrouded in the most ignorance.  It is one of the greatest propaganda success stories of American history…

The assassination of the top four leaders of the political left in the five year period – President John Kennedy in 1963, Malcolm X in 1965, and Martin Luther King, Jr. and Senator Robert Kennedy in 1968 – represented nothing less than a slow-motion coup on the political scene.

If anyone wishes to understand what has happened to the United States since this coup, and thus to its countless victims at home and throughout the world, one must understand these assassinations and how the alleged assassins were manipulated by the coup organizers and how the public was hoodwinked in a mind-control operation on a vast scale. 

It is not ancient history, for the forces that killed these leaders rule the U.S. today, and their ruthlessness has subsequently informed the actions of almost all political leaders in the years since.  A bullet to the head when you seriously talk about peace and justice is a not so gentle reminder to toe the line or else.

“But the way the CIA took over America in the 1960s is the story of our time,” writes Pease, “and too few recognize this.  We can’t fix a problem we can’t even acknowledge exists.”

So the “killing of the Kennedys and today’s new Cold War and war against terror are two ends of a linked intelligence operation.”  This intelligence “operation” or more aptly CIA takeover of our government has been waging covert wars since their inception.  From Wayne Madsen at LewRockwell:

Sen. John Tower Murder Conspiracy: How Poppy Bush, Brent Sowcroft & John Brennan fit in

Although they were both Republican politicians from Texas, Senator John Tower and President George H. W. Bush became bitter rivals. Documents discovered in the Central Intelligence Agency’s archives point to Bush and his allies within the CIA being upset with Tower over his findings as the chairman of the Tower Commission, named to investigate the culprits behind the Iran-contra scandal. The information gleaned by Tower may have also resulted in his and his daughter’s 1991 death in an airplane crash in Georgia.

In November 1986, President Reagan named Tower, who had declined to run for re-election in 1986, to chair the “President’s Special Review Board” on the actions of the National Security Council and its staff during the Iran-contra affair. The Tower Commission, as it was known, discovered, as did Special Prosecutor Lawrence Walsh, that Vice President George Bush was a central figure in the scandal.

Bush ensured he had his own plant installed on the Tower Commission, former National Security Adviser Brent Scowcroft, who would hold the same office in the George H. W. Bush presidency. The third commission member was former Secretary of State Edmund Muskie.

In 1989, Bush nominated Tower to be his Secretary of Defense. However, the Senate rejected their former colleague in a 47-53 vote. The last Senate rejection of a Cabinet nominee was in 1959. It later became known that it was Bush, who, via articles and statements by the vitriolic conservative rabble rouser Paul Weyrich, leaked rumors of Tower’s “womanizing” and problems with alcohol in order to publicly humiliate Tower.

The bad press resulted in Tower’s embarrassing rejection by the Senate. In other words, Bush set Tower up for a very public fall. It was retaliation for Tower’s probing of Bush’s central involvement in Iran-contra. And Tower’s rejection opened the door for Dick Cheney to become Secretary of Defense.

On April 5, 1991, Tower and his daughter Marian, along with 21 others, died in the crash of Atlantic Southeast Airlines flight 2311 while it approached the Brunswick, Georgia airport. The crash was blamed on aircraft equipment failure. Tower and his daughter, who had just cooperated in the publishing of Tower’s memoir, were collaborating on a second “tell-all” book about Iran-contra that was reportedly going to “name names” and Bush’s name would have been prominently mentioned.

Any further investigations of Bush and Iran-contra went down in flames on April 5, 1991 with Atlantic Southeast 2311 [left] and the plane that crashed the day before in Lower Merion Township, Pennsylvania [right].

CIA archival documents show that Tower cited as one of the major Iran-contra co-conspirators in the Tower Report, Graham Fuller, who was CIA director William Casey’s top advisers and a friend of Tower Commission member Scowcroft. Fuller was a major architect of the CIA’s training and arming Islamic jihadists to not only fight the Soviets in Afghanistan but in the USSR itself, especially in central Asia and the Caucasus, the latter called the “Second Afghanistan.”

It was this policy of encouraging Islamist radicalization that ultimately led to the creation of Al Qaeda and the Islamic State. Fuller’s daughter was married to Ruslan Tsarnaev, the uncle of accused Boston Marathon bombers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. As previously reported by WMR, Fuller, throughout the 1980s,

Fuller was front and center during many of the acts of violence in the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia, from Lebanon and Syria to Iran, Libya, and Algeria, as well as Iraq, Afghanistan, and South Yemen. Among Fuller’s fellow CIA provocateurs trying to stir up Muslims against the Russians was John Brennan, the current CIA director who continues the policy with CIA support of jihadist groups in Syria.

As a result of the Tower report, one of the first heads to roll at the CIA was Fuller, who resigned after the report’s release in 1987. Bush and his sycophants at the CIA were livid over not only what Tower released in the report but also what he failed to include but knew about: that Bush was the central kingpin in the arms-for-hostages deal with Iran and the use of the profits to aid the contras.

Bush swore out a vendetta against Tower, one that would culminate with a fiery plane crash in Georgia in 1991. Bush tried to escape blame by prodding a dementia-afflicted Reagan to fire White House chief of staff Donald Regan. Bush saw to it that Regan was blamed for the Iran-contra debacle. However, unlike Tower and his daughter, Regan did escape Bush’s wrath with his life.

Not so lucky was Pennsylvania Senator John Heinz III, a member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence that investigated Iran-contra and one of Tower’s supporters in the confirmation vote for Secretary of Defense. On April 4, 1991, the day before Tower died in the plane crash in Georgia, Heinz was killed in a freakish mid-air crash of his plane with a helicopter outside of Philadelphia.

When criminals go unpunished they become emboldened much like mass murderers.  Each kill just whets the appetite for more.  So what happened to the above mentioned criminal cabal?  Did they hang their heads in shame for the “many of the acts of violence in the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia, from Lebanon and Syria to Iran, Libya, and Algeria, as well as Iraq, Afghanistan, and South Yemen?”

No, many went on to serve in the George W. Bush Administration where they continued to cover up their mass murder rampages across North Africa, South Asia and the Middle East as well as Latin America.  Many like John Brennan also served in the Barack Obama Administration.  Like the great philosopher Yogi Berra said it’s like "Déjà vu all over again."

The American government was overthrown on December 12, 2000 when five of the most corrupt members of the U.S. Supreme Court in our history, overruled the American people and installed George W. Bush as President of the United States.  Hundreds of millions of voters were disenfranchised to accommodate the CIA cover-up of the crimes committed during the Reagan/Bush years.  The Reagan Presidential Papers were due to be released in 2000 and the CIA criminal cabal couldn’t allow that to happen.  From NewYork Times:

Excerpt:

Bush Keeps a Grip on Presidential Papers

President Bush signed an executive order today to allow a sitting president to keep secret the papers of a previous president, even if a previous president wants his papers made public.

Administration officials said the order would provide an ''orderly process'' to help archivists handle requests for presidential papers. Ari Fleischer, the White House press secretary, said today that ''more information will be forthcoming'' because of the order.

Some historians and public interest lawyers disagreed.

''Those claims are absurd,'' said Hugh Davis Graham, a presidential historian at Vanderbilt University who has seen the order. Mr. Graham said he viewed the executive order as the latest effort by the Bush White House to clamp down on the flow of information to the public

The five-page executive order, drafted by the White House counsel Alberto R. Gonzales, would give either an incumbent president or a former president the right to withhold the former president's papers from the public.

''We thought it would be more appropriate to really give the primary responsibility regarding presidential records to THE FORMER PRESIDENT WHOSE RECORDS THEY BELONG TO,'' Mr. Gonzales said in a briefing for reporters, ''and to have the incumbent president sort of be the backstop in making decisions about whether or not those documents should in fact be released.''

At issue are 68,000 pages of records from the Reagan administration, which by law were due to be made public in January of this year. But the current White House blocked the release of those documents, which contain confidential communications between President Reagan and his advisers, including Mr. Bush's father, George Bush, who was Mr. Reagan's vice president…

Historians say the documents most likely include memorandums of policy decisions, briefing papers and correspondence among White House advisers.  Until 1977, American presidents controlled the release of their own papers. But after Watergate and President Richard M. Nixon's attempt to retain his records and tape recordings, Congress passed the 1978 Presidential Records Act, which called for the release of presidential papers 12 years after an administration.

That law took effect in 1981. The Reagan documents would be the first presidential papers released under the act.  The White House delayed that release three times, saying it needed time to review the papers.  Mr. Graham, the presidential historian, said the current administration was also concerned about protecting its own secrets during the war with Afghanistan.

The media and the whistleblowers who trust them with their lives have always been enemies of the Deep State for shedding light on the heinous acts committed by those in the employ of the CIA.  While Julian Assange and Chelsey Manning are locked up in Guantanamo-like conditions, they have no idea of what lies ahead for them.  They do know what happened to those who came before them.  From SputnikNews:

5 Whistleblowers Who Died Mysteriously

In the wake of the death on Wednesday of Iraq War veteran and computer security expert James Dolan, Sputnik decided to recall other whistleblowers that have passed away under rather vague circumstances.

1. James Dolan was a co-creator of the whistleblower submission system SecureDrop along with Aaron Swartz, who killed himself in 2013 following prosecution for an alleged criminal hacking incident. 36-year-old Dolan, who reportedly also took his own life, joined the Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) after Swartz’s death. The circumstances of Dolan’s death are yet unknown, however the FPF reported that he had been suffering from PTSD since the Iraq War.

2. Serena Shim, a promising journalist working for Iran’s Press TV media outlet, was killed in a “suspicious” car crash in Turkey just days after she gathered information on Turkish support for Daesh (ISIS), claiming they were helping the terrorists commit heinous crimes. In 2014, Shim reported that she received explicit threats from Turkish intelligence services, and died a few days after confessing on camera that she was afraid of being arrested for “espionage.” Press TV has refused to consider her death an accident.

3. Michael Ruppert, former Los Angeles police officer, went public as a whistleblower when he exposed corruption within the police department and the CIA. He was found dead in 2014, reportedly dying from a gunshot wound, and was deemed a suicide. While he left a recorded suicide message, saying that he took his life so that the CIA couldn’t murder him, some still believe that he was actually killed.


4. In 2017, the German news journalist Dr. Udo Ulfkotte was found dead, ten months after he exposed collusion between the CIA and German Intelligence. Ulfkotte alleged that the intelligence agencies bribe journalists into writing pro-NATO articles. In his book, entitled “Bought Journalists,” Ulfkotte reveals the details of the US and NATO propaganda machine, claiming that those who refused to work for them could consider their careers ruined.

He said most media journalists in the US and Europe were “so-called non-official cover,” implying that they worked for an intelligence agency. Among the fake news stories Ulfkotte claims the CIA ordered him to publish was one claiming that the late Libyan President Muammar Gaddafi was building poison gas factories in 2011. The 56-year-old journalist reportedly died of heart failure, however many believe that his bestselling book cost him his life.

5. David Kelly worked for the British Ministry of Defense as a biological weapons expert back in 2003, when the Iraq war started under a pretext that Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction. When Kelly reported that no WMDs were found in Iraq, he was labeled a traitor by his colleagues, as well as by major politicians.

Later in 2003, he was found dead with the initial report saying that he had overdosed on painkillers and cut his wrist. While some believe that he would not commit suicide, the government rejected any calls for an inquest into Kelly’s death.



There was a time when there were honorable men in our government like Senator John Tower and Senator John Heinz III, when the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence performed oversight.  That is no longer the case as our “elected government” is useless.  Those in government have enriched themselves on the status quo and will provide no safe harbor for the whistleblowers and journalists who endanger that.  From Ray McGovern:

Requiem for the Fourth Estate

It is a very sad day for the rule of law.

Yesterday's broad-daylight manhandling and kidnapping of Julian Assange from political asylum in the Ecuadorian embassy in London demonstrates in bas-relief that in today's Anglo-America, the Magna Carta and the Bill of Rights are now "quaint and obsolete," to use the words of pseudo-lawyer, Alberto Gonzales.

White House attorney Gonzales was referring in January 2002 to other basic principles of international law, the Geneva Conventions, from which he decided he could grant Bush an exemption so he could authorize torture, which he did on February 7, 2002. (We have that memo.)

This no secret; we also have the Gonzales's memo to Bush. For services performed, Gonzales was nominated and confirmed as Attorney General, the chief U.S. law enforcer.

When WikiLeaks revealed U.S. war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Sam Adams Associates for Integrity chose Julian Assange for its annual integrity award. The award's "Oscar," a corner-brightener candlestick holder for shining light into dark places, was presented to Mr. Assange by UK Ambassador Craig Murray and Daniel Ellsberg after a major press conference in London on October 23, 2010. Julian Assange became the eighth in what has become an distinguished line of 16 truth-tellers awardees of the Sam Adams Associates.

It seems altogether fitting and proper that this year's award be presented in London, where Edmund Burke coined the expression "Fourth Estate." Comparing the function of the press to that of the three Houses then in Parliament, Burke said:  "...but in the Reporters Gallery yonder, there sits a Fourth Estate more important far then they all."

The year was 1787 -- the year the U.S. Constitution was adopted. The First Amendment, approved four years later, aimed at ensuring that the press would be free of government interference. That was then.

With the Fourth Estate now on life support, there is a high premium on the fledgling Fifth Estate, which uses the ether and is not susceptible of government or corporation control. Small wonder that governments with lots to hide feel very threatened.  It has been said: "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free." WikiLeaks is helping make that possible by publishing documents that do not lie…

We do not know if Pvt. Bradley Manning gave WikiLeaks the gun-barrel video of July 12, 2007 called "Collateral Murder." Whoever did provide that graphic footage, showing the brutality of the celebrated "surge" in Iraq, was certainly far more a patriot than the "mainstream" journalist embedded in that same Army unit. He suppressed what happened in Baghdad that day, dismissed it as simply "one bad day in a surge that was filled with such days," and then had the temerity to lavish praise on the unit in a book he called "The Good Soldiers."

Julian is right to emphasize that the world is deeply indebted to patriotic truth-tellers like the sources who provided the gun-barrel footage and the many documents on Afghanistan and Iraq to WikiLeaks. We hope to have a chance to honor them in person in the future.

Today we honor WikiLeaks, and one of its leaders, Julian Assange, for their ingenuity in creating a new highway by which important documentary evidence can make its way, quickly and confidentially, through the ether and into our in-boxes. Long live the Fifth Estate!

The same criminal cabal that was complicit in the formation of the CIA run Deep State is now in charge of American foreign policy.  Trump’s entire National Security Team is under the control of the CIA.  They are a danger to America and a danger to the world.   

After Pearl Harbor and after 9-11 we were told “what was sorely lacking was a centralized agency within the government that could sort through information gathered from spies working on behalf of the country, analyze it and report it to relevant officials.”  So how’s that working?  From Lew Rockwell:

Excerpt:

CIA Director Used Fake Skripal Incident Photos To Manipulate Trump

An ass kissing portrait of Gina Haspel, torture queen and director of the CIA, reveals that she lied to Trump to push for more aggression against Russia. 

In March 2018 the British government asserted, without providing any evidence, that the alleged ‘Novichok’ poisoning of Sergej and Yulia Skripal was the fault of Russia. It urged its allies to expel Russian officials from their countries.  The U.S. alone expelled 60 Russian officials. Trump was furious when he learned that EU countries expelled less than 60 in total. A year ago the Washington Post described the scene:

President Trump seemed distracted in March as his aides briefed him at his Mar-a-Lago resort on the administration’s plan to expel 60 Russian diplomats and suspected spies.  The United States, they explained, would be ousting roughly the same number of Russians as its European allies — part of a coordinated move to punish Moscow for the poisoning of a former Russian spy and his daughter on British soil.

“We’ll match their numbers,” Trump instructed, according to a senior administration official. “We’re not taking the lead. We’re matching.”  The next day, when the expulsions were announced publicly, Trump erupted, officials said. To his shock and dismay, France and Germany were each expelling only four Russian officials — far fewer than the 60 his administration had decided on.

The president, who seemed to believe that other individual countries would largely equal the United States, was furious that his administration was being portrayed in the media as taking by far the toughest stance on Russia.  The expulsion marked a turn in the Trump administration’s relation with Russia:

The incident reflects a tension at the core of the Trump administration’s increasingly hard-nosed stance on Russia: The president instinctually opposes many of the punitive measures pushed by his Cabinet that have crippled his ability to forge a close relationship with Russian President Vladi­mir Putin…

Today the New York Times portraits Gina Haspel’s relation with Trump. The writers seem sympathetic to her and the CIA’s position. They include an anecdote of the Skripal expulsion decision that is supposed to let her shine in a good light. But it only proves that the CIA manipulated the president for its own purpose:

Last March, top national security officials gathered inside the White House to discuss with Mr. Trump how to respond to the nerve agent attack in Britain on Sergei V. Skripal, the former Russian intelligence agent. London was pushing for the White House to expel dozens of suspected Russian operatives, but Mr. Trump was skeptical…

Ms. Haspel showed pictures the British government had supplied her of young children hospitalized after being sickened by the Novichok nerve agent that poisoned the Skripals. She then showed a photograph of ducks that British officials said were inadvertently killed by the sloppy work of the Russian operatives.

Ms Haspel was not the first to use emotional images to appeal to the president, but pairing it with her hard-nosed realism proved effective: Mr. Trump fixated on the pictures of the sickened children and the dead ducks. At the end of the briefing, he embraced the strong option…

There were no reports of any children affected by ‘Novichok’ nor were their any reports of dead ducks. In the official storyline the Skripals, before visiting a restaurant, fed bread to ducks at a pond in the Queen Elizabeth Gardens in Salisbury. They also gave duck-bread to three children to do the same.

The children were examined and their blood was tested. No poison was found and none of them fell ill. No duck died. (The duck feeding episode also disproves the claim that the Skripals were poisoned by touching a door handle.)

If the NYT piece is correct, the CIA director, in cooperation with the British government, lied to Trump about the incident. Their aim was to sabotage Trump’s announced policy of better relations with Russia. THE RUSE WORKED.

The NYT piece does not mention that the pictures Gina Haspel showed Trump were fake. It pretends that her lies were “new information” and that she was not out to manipulate him…

The outcome was an example, officials said, of how Ms. Haspel is one of the few people who can get Mr. Trump to shift position based on new information. Co-workers and friends of Ms. Haspel push back on any notion that she is manipulating the president. She is instead trying to get him to listen and to protect the agency, according to former intelligence officials who know her.

The job of the CIA director is to serve the president, not to protect the agencies own policies. Hopefully Trump will hear about the anecdote, recognize how he was had, and fire Haspel. He should not stop there but also get rid of her protector who likely had a role in the game:

Ms. Haspel won the trust of Mr. Pompeo, however, and has stayed loyal to him. As a result, Mr. Trump sees Ms. Haspel as an extension of Mr. Pompeo, a view that has helped protect her, current and former intelligence officials said.

Where was the media outrage?  The CIA controlled media continue to cover for the unindicted war criminals infesting our government.  The latest comedic horror show has been the thus-far failed coup in Venezuela.  It seems the “Troika of Tyranny”, that is Pence/Bolton/Pompeo has set its sights on Latin America.  Lots of unfinished CIA business there. 

But it seems that Russia and China have formed strong relationships and trade agreements there and aren’t willing to allow America to overthrow elected governments in order to steal their resources.  Mike Pompeo made the usual ass of himself in Chile.  From RT:

‘Pompeo lost his mind’: Chinese diplomat hits back at US attacks on Beijing’s investments in Chile

The Chinese ambassador to Santiago called US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo “a hypocrite” after he tried to dissuade the South American nation from dealing with Beijing, as the US and China remain locked in a trade war.  “Pompeo has lost his mind and gone too far,” Beijing’s envoy to Chile, Xu Bu, said, slamming the attacks against Chinese economic activities in the region as “malicious” and “absurd.”

Mike Pompeo earlier called Chinese investment projects in the South America “debt deal traps” during a visit to Santiago. Beijing “often injects corrosive capital into the economic bloodstream, giving life to corruption, and eroding good governance,” he said.


Firing back, Ambassador Xu said that economic ties between Chile and China “brought tangible benefits to the development of the Chilean economy,” and the cooperation remains mutually beneficial. He pointed out that Chile’s trade with Beijing exceeded US$42.8 billion, which is nearly twice the size of the trade it has with Washington (US$24 billion).

“Mr. Pompeo is a hypocrite,” he said, adding that it is the US that “has not made substantial contributions” to the economy of South American states.  Historically, the United States has treated Latin America as its ‘backyard,’ imposing frequent military interventions or sanctions.

The US and China have been locked in a trade war since President Donald Trump slapped import tariffs on Chinese goods. In retaliation, Beijing did the same with a number of US-made products.

Relations between the two nations were further strained as senior US officials accused Beijing of potentially using telecom giant Huawei to spy on Western states and ordinary citizens. Mike Pompeo has attempted to discourage American allies in Europe from using Huawei equipment, warning that reliance on Chinese technology will hamper their cooperation with Washington.

The company denied the allegations. Meanwhile, Belgium’s Center for Cybersecurity investigated Huawei and found no evidence that its equipment presents “a spying threat.”

Sheesh, who you gonna believe, Belgium’s “Center for Cybersecurity” or Mike Pompeo?  For a businessman like Trump, he must cringe when he’s sees the Chinese Diplomat, slamming America’s top Diplomat’s attacks against the Chinese as “malicious” and “absurd.”  How embarrassing. 

Trump has a good relationship with China’s President Xi, what’s he to say?  “I stand with the Secretary of State 100%?” China isn’t the only country to give a blunt assessment of the Trump National Security team.  From Information Clearing House:

Putin Now Thinks Western Elites Are 'Swine'

An article I published close to five years ago, “Putin to Western elites: Play-time is over”, turned out to be the most popular thing I’ve written so far, having garnered over 200,000 reads over the intervening years. In it I wrote about Putin’s speech at the 2014 Valdai Club conference. In that speech he defined the new rules by which Russia conducts its foreign policy: out in the open, in full public view, as a sovereign nation among other sovereign nations, asserting its national interests and demanding to be treated as an equal. Yet again, Western elites failed to listen to him.

Instead of mutually beneficial cooperation they continued to speak the language of empty accusations and counterproductive yet toothless sanctions. And so, in yesterday’s address to Russia’s National Assembly Putin sounded note of complete and utter disdain and contempt for his “Western partners,” as he has usually called them. This time he called them “swine.”

The president’s annual address to the National Assembly is a rather big deal. Russia’s National Assembly is quite unlike that of, say, Venezuela, which really just consists of some obscure nonentity named Juan recording Youtube videos in his apartment.

In Russia, the gathering is a who’s-who of Russian politics, including cabinet ministers, Kremlin staffers, the parliament (State Duma), regional governors, business leaders and political experts, along with a huge crowd of journalists. One thing that stood out at this year’s address was the very high level of tension in the hall: the atmosphere seemed charged with electricity.

It quickly became obvious why the upper echelon of Russia’s state bureaucracy was nervous: Putin’s speech was part marching orders part harangue. His plans for the next couple of years are extremely ambitious, as he himself admitted. The plank is set very high, he said, and those who are not up to the challenge have no business going near it.

Very hard work lies ahead for almost everyone who was gathered in that hall, and those of them who fail at their tasks are unlikely to be in attendance the next time around because their careers will have ended in disgrace.

The address contained almost no bad news and quite a lot of very good news. Russia’s financial reserves are more than sufficient to cover its entire external debt, both public and private. Non-energy-resource exports are booming to such an extent that Russia no longer needs oil and gas exports to maintain a positive balance of trade. It has become largely immune to Western sanctions. Eurasian integration projects are going extremely well. Russian government’s investments in industry are paying dividends. 

The government has amassed vast amounts of capital which it will now spend on domestic programs designed to benefit the people, to help Russians live longer, healthier lives and have more children. “More children—lower taxes” was one of the catchier slogans.

This was what most of the address was about: eradication of remaining poverty; low, subsidized mortgage rates for families with two or more children; pensions indexed to inflation above and beyond the official minimal income levels (corrected and paid out retroactively); high-speed internet for each and every school; universal access to health care through a network of rural clinics; several new world-class oncology clinics; support for tech start-ups; a “social contract” program that helps people start small businesses; another program called “ticket to the future” that allows sixth-graders to choose a career path that includes directed study programs, mentorships and apprenticeships; lots of new infrastructure projects such as the soon-to-be-opened Autobahn between Moscow and St. Petersburg, revamped trash collection and recycling and major air pollution reductions in a dozen major cities; the list goes on and on…

Perhaps the most ambitious goal set by Putin was to redo the entire system of Russia’s government regulations, both federal and regional, in every sphere of public life and commerce. Over the next two years every bit of regulation will be examined in order to determine whether it is necessary and whether it responds to contemporary needs and if it isn’t or doesn’t it will be eliminated.

This will significantly ease the burden of regulatory compliance, lowering the cost of doing business. Another goal was to continue growing the already booming agricultural export sector. Last year Russia achieved self-sufficiency in wheat seed stock, but the overall goal is to achieve complete self-sufficiency in food and to become the world’s provider of ecologically clean foodstuffs.

(As Putin pointed out, Russia remains the only major agricultural producer in the world that hasn’t been contaminated by American-made GMO poisons.) Yet another goal is to further grow Russia’s tourism industry, which is already booming, by introducing electronic tourist visas that will be much easier to obtain.

Last year’s addressed surprised the world with its second part, in which Putin unveiled a whole set of new Russian weapons systems that effectively negate every last bit of US military superiority. This year, he added just one new system: a supersonic cruise missile called “Zirkon” with a 1000 km range that flies at Mach 9.

He spoke in favor of normalized relations with the EU, but accused the US of “hostility,” adding that Russia does not threaten anyone and is not interested in confrontation.

Putin’s sharpest words were reserved for the US decision to abandon the IMF treaty. He said that the US acted in bad faith, accusing Russia of violating the treaty while they themselves violated it, specifically articles 5 and 6, by deploying dual-use launch systems in Romania and Poland which can be used for both air defense and for offensive nuclear weapons which the treaty specifically prohibits.

Nuclear-tipped Tomahawk cruise missiles, which the US could deploy in Poland and Romania, would of course pose a risk, but would not provide the US with anything like a first-strike advantage, since these cruise missiles are obsolete to the point where even Syria’s Soviet-era air defenses were able to shoot down most of the ones the US lobbed at them as punishment for the fake chemical weapons attack in Douma.

Speaking of the American dream of a global air defense system, Putin called on the US to “abandon these illusions.” The Americans can think whatever they want, he said, but the question is, “can they do math?” This needs unfolding…

In this case, if Americans could “do math,” they would quickly figure out that there is no conceivable defensive system that would be effective against the new Russian weapons, that there are no conceivable offensive weapons that would prevent Russia from launching an unstoppable retaliatory strike, and that therefore the “new arms race” (which some Americans have been daft enough to announce) is effectively over and Russia has won…

Russia has already announced that in the next war, should there be one, will not be fought on Russian soil. Russia plans to take the fight to the enemy immediately. Of course, there won’t be a war—provided the Americans are sane enough to realize that attacking Russia is functionally equivalent to blowing themselves up with nuclear weapons. Are they sane enough? That is the question that is holding the world hostage.

It is in speaking of them that Putin used the most withering word in his entire address. Speaking of Americans’ dishonesty and bad faith in accusing Russia of violating the ABM treaty while it was they themselves who were violating it, he added: “...and the American satellites oink along with them.”

It is rather difficult to come up with an adequate translation for the Russian verb “подхрюкивать”; “oink along with” is as close as I am able to get. The mental image is of a chorus of little pigs accompanying a big swine.

The implication is obvious: Putin thinks that the Americans are swine, and that their NATO satellites are swine too. Therefore, they shouldn’t expect Putin to scatter any pearls before them and, in any case, he’ll be too busy helping Russians live better lives to pay any attention to them. 

What Putin is doing in Russia, strength through peace is what Trump promised to do in America.  However the insane war-mongering lunatics around him seem to have scuttled Trump’s agenda, for the time being that is.  I can’t imagine what Trump must be thinking, who can he talk to when everyone on his National Security team is nuts.  From Geopolitics:

Trump Seek Carter’s Advice Regarding China’s Rise Amidst US Bankruptcy

Donald Trump has tried everything he can, even colluding lately with the Deep State in its regime change strategies, without achieving the intended results, just to keep his campaign promise of Making America Great Again. Quite the contrary, in fact, as the targets overtly defy every move the US makes, whether in the Middle East or in Latin America.

Just recently, the emerging leader of a Unified Libya is inching his way to Tripoli, in defiance to his former friends at Langley, Virginia. Venezuela has withdrawn from the US rubber stamp known as the Organization of American States.

Everyone, who’s got the balls, is leaving the US orbit and have joined the China-led OBOR project to connect the entire Eurasian landmass to other continents.  So dire is the situation in the West that the Deep State needed a strong diversion by rearresting Wikileaks’ Julian Assange, and burning down Notre Dame?

Might be the case because the New Zealand white supremacist attack on the Muslim community died down too quickly.  Domestically, more retail companies are closing their outlets across the nation, while the banking system wants to impose regulation on cryptocurrencies for the final phase of the AI-based control grid automation.

As online shopping continues to grow, another 75,000 stores could close by 2026, says investment bank UBS. When everyone is buying their goods online, it’s always a two-way street between the peoples’ convenience and the state’s fully automated surveillance. What are they going to do with all that data?

Already, we have seen how Google’s AI algorithm classified the Notre Dame fire as conspiratorial. 

Going back, Pompous Pompeo and his ilk are the new celebrity geopolitical laughingstocks of the world that Trump must have revolted on their every presence in the White House.

So, he decided to grab his phone one lonely night, and consulted the man who “normalized diplomatic relations with China in 1979.”  President Donald Trump called former President Jimmy Carter for the first time this weekend. Carter revealed that news during his regular Sunday school lesson at his home church, Maranatha Baptist Church in Plains, Georgia, on Sunday morning.

Earlier this year former President Carter sent President Trump a letter with some advice about managing the U.S.-China relationship. Carter oversaw the normalization of diplomatic relations between the countries 40 years ago.  And on Saturday evening, Trump called Carter to talk about it. It was the first time they’d spoken, Carter said. He said Trump said he is particularly concerned about how China is “getting ahead of us.”  Carter agreed that’s true.

“And do you know why? I normalized diplomatic relations with China in 1979. Since 1979 do you know how many times China has been at war with anybody? None. And we have stayed at war,” he said.  The U.S., Carter said, has been at war for all but 16 years of its 242-year history. (China and Vietnam actually fought a brief border war in early 1979, weeks after normalization of U.S.-China relations.)

He called the United States “the most warlike nation in the history of the world,” because of a tendency to try to force others to “adopt our American principles.”  Carter suggested that instead of war, China has been investing in its own infrastructure, mentioning that China has 18,000 miles of high-speed railroad.

“How many miles of high-speed railroad do we have in this country?”  Zero, the congregation answered.  “We have wasted I think $3 trillion,” Carter said of American military spending. “… It’s more than you can imagine. China has not wasted a single penny on war and that’s why they’re ahead of us. In almost every way.

“And I think the difference is if you take $3 trillion and put it in American infrastructure you’d probably have $2 trillion leftover. We’d have high-speed railroad. We’d have bridges that aren’t collapsing, we’d have roads that are maintained properly. Our education system would be as good as that of say South Korea or Hong Kong.

“I wasn’t comparing my country adversely to China,” Carter qualified. “I was just pointing that out because I happened to get a phone call last night.”  He said he understood that Trump is worried about China surpassing the U.S. as the world’s top economic superpower.  “I don’t really fear that time, but it bothers President Trump and I don’t know why. I’m not criticizing him — this morning,” Carter said to laughs from the audience.

While Putin promises to continue to conduct Russia’s foreign policy: out in the open, in full public view, as a sovereign nation, America’s unelected government continues to conduct covert campaigns of torture, assassinations, war, death and destruction unchecked. 

The American people and the American way of life is are being threatened by these unelected frauds.  What Donald Trump has managed to do is turn the klieg lights on and flood the illegal workings of government with light.  Julian Assange and Chelsey Manning are sacrificial lambs to cover up the CIA Crime Family rampage across Latin America.  Hopefully America as a force for good will rise from the dead this Easter and drive the money changers from the temple.
