• Fauci Emails: How Top Public Health Officials Spun Tangled Web of Lies Around COVID Origin, Treatments features a 27:33m podcast by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. (with Dr. Meryl Nass) from Children's Health Defense.

• Facebook CEO offered Dr. Fauci ‘very exciting’ proposal, vaccine ‘resources’ by Raymond Wolfe from LifeSite.

• Extreme to Mainstream: The Wuhan Lab-Leak Theory featuring Ben Swann and others, from a post on RT via YouTube.
  

Joe Biden’s asked US intelligence to investigate the origins of the deadly disease, and RT’s investigative journalist and No BS host Ben Swann is doing the same. He’ll be talking to political commentator Einar Tangen in Beijing, law professor Elaine Fahey and Nicolas Wade, one of the first journalists to report on the possibility of the Wuhan “lab-leak”.

• Divide And Brainwash: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix by Australian Caitlin Johnstone with her American husband reading the script, which is provided, from her weblog.

• Propaganda and the Media: All you have to do is think – Part 4 by Larry Romanoff from "The Saker" blog. My brief commentary follows: 

The only thing I object to in this post is Romanoff's statements that imply that "Jews" are responsible for media propaganda that comprises a lie attached to a truth. He violates his own thesis that media propaganda is a lie attached to a truth. He seems to equate Zionists with Jews, but clearly not all Jews are Zionists. 

 

Jews were first identified with leftist Jews after the Russian Revolution by fascists in Western capitalist circles, most notably by pro-capitalist Nazis but also including major capitalists like Henry Ford. Clearly Jews, like any other ethnic group, have beliefs across the political spectrum from right (fascist-capitalists) to left (communist-socialists). Otherwise, his arguments are correct: capitalist propagandists mix truth with falsities in order to defend and advance their class interests.

• 💥The Notorious London Spy School Churning Out Many of the World’s Top Journalists by Alan Macleod from Mint Press News (based in Minneapolis). This is a best post and a best post of the year (so far). "Oliver Boyd-Barrett, Professor Emeritus at Bowling Green State’s School of Media and Communication and an expert in collusion between government and media, told MintPress, adding:

Elite institutions in the past and doubtless still today have been major playgrounds for intelligence services. The history of the modern nation-state generally, not just the USA, seems to suggest that national unity — and therefore elite safety — is regarded by elites as achievable only through careful management and often suppression or diversion of dissent. Far more resources are typically committed to this than many citizens, drilled in the propaganda of democracy, realize or care to concede. [my emphasis]

 

and Macleod goes on to write:

 

A recent MintPress investigation explored how Bellingcat acts to launder national security state talking points into the mainstream under the guise of being neutral investigative journalists themselves.

Newly leaked documents show how Bellingcat, Reuters and the BBC were covertly cooperating with the U.K.’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) to undermine the Kremlin and promote regime change in Moscow.

 

He names names of graduates of Kings College that are hired to key positions in media corporations like Reuters, BBC, and CNN.

• The Genocide We’re Allowing in Amazonia by J.P. Linstroth from CounterPunch. My reaction: Perhaps such "savages" remind us who are living in the "advanced nations" too much of our animal origins.

• 💥Bill Gates’ Foundation Funded ‘DNA Mining’ Using COVID-19 Tests featuring Ryan Cristián in an excerpt (36:34m) from his regular show "The Daily Wrap Up 3/6/21" (lasting nearly five hours) posted on The Last American Vagabond. (Note: Cristián reports with documented evidence numerous unsavory connections between not only Big Pharma working under "public-private partnerships" with government agencies, but China as well.  He reads extensively from an article published online by the British Medical Journal (BMJ) shocking revelations which disclose the corrupting influences of international pharmaceutical corporations, in collusion with various governments, Congressional leaders, Bill Gates, etc.) This is a best post. My reaction follows: There have been so many qualified people who have raised serious questions and objections regarding these vaccines (here is another) that I wouldn't get a vaccine if they paid me a small fortune to get it.
  

• Why Are Drugmakers Who Caused Opioid Crisis in Charge of Solving the Pandemic? featuring Russell Brand, a British entertainer, arguing that "It makes sense ... that some people have doubts about allowing corporations with a history of prioritizing profits over people to be in charge of solving the pandemic" in a 15:41m video posted on the Children's Health Defense website.

• Atlantic Council Hawks Enraged as Think Tank Publishes Slightly Less Anti-Russia Article by Alan Macleod from Mint Press News. (Note. This post also gives a lot of valuable information on the Atlantic Council, described by Macleod as a "pre-eminent foreign policy think tank". I think he is correct.)

• COVID, a disease in name only by Jon Rappoport from Off-Guardian (based in Britain). 

• Viral Topography of Neoliberalism: Transnational Laboratories and the Commodification of Life by Jorge Elbaum from Internationalist 360°.

• Atlantic Council Pens Anonymously Authored Expose Calling for Regime Change in China by Alan Macleod from Mint Press News. My reaction: This group is represented by unelected members sponsored and promoted by the international capitalist class that has created the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire. This document contains the real intentions of this transnational ruling class that is in control of the Empire, and all the government agencies of the Empire will carry out this plan. You probably thought that official legislative bodies whose members consist of "democratically" elected members actually made both foreign and domestic policies. Sorry to disillusion you. It is a primary function of media corporations, but will be supported by all institutions, to convince you of the latter.
  

• In Order To Have A “Tolerant Society”, The Elite Believe They Must Be Intolerant Of All Dissenting Views by Michael Snider from Activist Post.

• JFK, Allen Dulles, and Indonesia, a book review by Edward Curtin from his weblog Behind the Curtain. My commentary follows:

It is hard to discern what events were crucial in the fulfillment of the empire builders in 1941 as they launched their project to what became the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire, the "New World Order" of today. But one such event noted by many people interested in true history, and Prof. Curtin and I are among them, is the assassination of President John Kennedy. I remember very well the details of the event, and that verified details pointed to a coup d'état by what many scholars began naming as a Deep State, the real capitalist rulers of their growing empire. Although I don't recall Curtin's use of the concept of the Deep State, he was clearly disturbed by this event because it clashed with all the conventional political ideas with which he had been indoctrinated.

One important agent of this Deep State was the long-time director of the highly secretive Deep State, the CIA, was Allan Dulles. Pres. Kennedy was in the tradition of Franklin Roosevelt. Kennedy was no anti-capitalist as was Roosevelt, but he, like Roosevelt, believed in social justice among and within nations. The fact that capitalism was antithetical to social justice escaped both leaders, and Kennedy, and maybe even Roosevelt was (many suspect this) assassinated for this error in judgment.

Professor (of Sociology) Curtin is one such scholar (shortly to be dismissed from his employment), and he has closely followed the events and the coverup by government authorities, media, and all institutions since it happened in 1963. Thus, Curtin can be named as an expert on this historic event, and the author of this new book added clarity to his understanding.

• Why Do These Uighur Witnesses' Stories Constantly Change? Bernhard, a Germain independent blogger asks from his weblog Moon of Alabama. My reaction follows: 

This is just more anti-Chinese propaganda (disinformation) that highly secret agencies proliferate from the media corporations and the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire that they serve. This propaganda, like all the other efforts such as the Covid-19 pandemic, Russia, censoring real independent bloggers, etc. are designed to control the minds of the American populace. 

The first step is to turn off your TV (for entertainment only) and get the real news from thoroughly independent bloggers. But you say, which are "thoroughly independent"?  That is the critical challenge of our times! Most of us are trying to merely survive and don't have time to devote to any challenge. This is unlike the fabulously rich who can spend very little of their money to hire desperate folks like us to go online and spread disinformation.

• A few basic comments on the Navalnyi PSYOP by "The Saker" (Andrei Raevsky) from "The Saker" weblog. (Note: Raevsky is of Russian ancestry and he is an expert on Russian issues.)

• “I Am Open”: 50,000 Italian Restaurant Owners Plan to Ignore Lockdown from Off-Guardian.
  

• Unpacking the Aftermath of Trump’s Coup Attempt With Brian Becker, featuring an interview with Becker, a longtime activist and host of The Socialist Program, conducted by Dan Cohen from Mint Press News. My commentary follows:

Just to be clear, I don't know for certain what happened in Washington DC on January 6, but I tend to think that Americans are so naive about "intelligence" agencies' abilities to manipulate the views of ordinary Americans that they are taking what is reported by corporate media at face value. Because Becker has been active in revolutionary movements all of his adult life, he is no ordinary American. I knew of him while living in the San Franciso Bay Area in the 1980s. However, he with his obsession regarding older forms of fascism tends to see the older forms of fascism everywhere. He, too, fails to see the new forms, of what I refer to, as "neofascism".

Becker doesn't seem to be aware of neofascist forms of mind control that capitalist ruling classes have developed since WWII as reflected in foreign reports of color revolutions and other psychological operations (psy-ops) that have been designed and implemented for the past 75 years to crush any revolutionary forces or to install a new more "cooperative" regime. The "intelligence" agents have since learned more sophisticated methods of shaping views of ordinary people (see my commentary to the Harris article on Jan. 7) residing in US/Anglo/Zionist Empire. Because ordinary Americans do not follow reports of such incidents in foreign lands, they are so ignorant when these techniques are used against them. They are "babes in the woods" (def). 

Since January 6 I've been reading reports that reveal that key Congressional figures were refused requests for more security. I am inclined to believe the report by David Mathisen in his article "The Capitol Hill Fiasco 2021" and its implications. It was likely a psychological operation by secret agencies of the Empire to pave the way to more laws restricting civil liberties, promoting censorship and surveillance of dissidents, and other nefarious objectives.

• 'Don't get yourselves caught': How the British state allowed its secret agents to commit crime by Ian Cobain from Middle East Eye (based in London). This is the best of the best posts on my website. My reaction follows:
  

This report is prime reading for anyone who wishes to gain an understanding of how "liberal" or bourgeois (capitalist) democracies work. The latter must have secret agencies operating outside of the law that follow the diktats of the ruling capitalist class. This report only deals with British agencies that during the course of their operations commit crimes. It does not report on other agencies, whose top leaders answer to the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire's Deep State, that are engaged in shady operations which undermine any semblance of democracy such as propaganda activities. If you think that Britain is not an essential part of the Empire, and, as such, has no implications for the rest of the Empire, you likely won't believe it has anything to do with government operations in the USA. Brainwashed others will dismiss it entirely. However, it is essential reading by any US activist or revolutionary organization that aims to be effective. For people involved in the latter, this rare report must be studied.

• The U.S. Did Not Defeat Fascism in WWII, It Discretely Internationalized It by Gabriel Rockhill from CounterPunch. The author provides the post-WWII details after the Deep State, a kind of board of directors for the emerging USA, concluded that 

... it was understood that the best way to construct the fascist international was to do so under liberal cover, meaning through clandestine operations that maintained a liberal façade. While this probably sounds like hyperbole to those whose understanding of history has been formatted by bourgeois social science, which focuses almost exclusively on visible government and the aforementioned liberal cover, the history of the invisible government of the national security apparatus suggests that fascism, far from being defeated in WWII, was successfully internationalized.

• 94 page PDF details Deep State-Media collusion to destroy Trump posted by Alex Christoforou of his 19:34m video interview with Alexander Mercouris. (Note: I have ignored this issue known as "russiagate", because I viewed it as another absurd disinformation distraction from reality. I have barely enough energy and time to follow what I think is reality.)

• Running Out of Time… October Surprise Redux? by Philip Giraldi from Strategic Culture Foundation.  (My reaction: I remember well the reliable reports after Reagan's election in 1980 reporting that the CIA rigged the election for Reagan. Giraldi reports on other possible shenanigans perpetrated by the Deep State that obviously wants Trump removed. But, who cares? Both political parties serve the rich ruling class of capitalists and not ordinary Americans.)

(Note: This daily report by interviewer Ryan Cristián, who is also the found of this weblog, is a little short of one hour followed by a short film (an exception to his often two to three hours of commentary.)

My reaction:

I regard Webb as a top investigative journalist. In this interview she uses her encyclopedia knowledge, gained from her research, to shed light on the Deep State, their various organizations, operatives, and their deceptive propaganda in the run-up to the November election and their Transition Integrity Project. All of these deceptive projects are treated by media corporations as protecting the security of the people, but in reality are designed through their well-honed chaos strategies to create fear in order to increase their neo-fascist control of the population. This is a best post.)
