Temporarily. The battle has just begun. The first step is exposing their misdeeds, which we are seeing right here. Next I anticipate a lawfare campaign to weaken the First Amendment. That effort will be spearheaded by DOJ unless Trump wins.
May I once again say. You would not have had the many disclosures that we have read about on this site if the Republicans had not won a puny majority. Not only did they win that puny majority, they used it for good regarding our 1A.
Our. 1A. I thought Musk gave a clarion call to people at Butler. Which is so funny that people like David Axelrod think "the people" need to be "wrangled." And especially, people who just lost everything in a natural disaster.
If you care about the future, vote for the Repubs up and down the ballot. The Fellowship's quest now just stands on the edge of a knife, or whatever the fairy queen said. Seriously. Our overlords are now just preaching flat out --- "misinformation," "dangerous," etc.
Exhibit A: A couple of days ago the FEMA head invoked the terms "misinformation" and "dangerous" to announce her "public servants"* were at risk from blah, blah, blah.
*People who used to work for the Federal government. Because they want to serve their fellow citizens.
Don't remember much coverage of the Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act of 2016, which largely was created to enable "Russia, Russia, Russia" and the domestic resistance to Orange Man Bad.
Our federal government jobs and offices have become so lucrative that most of our tax money goes to politics and building support for the always coming next elections. The MICIMATT is all that matters in America, East Palestine, Ohio, Maui, Hawaii, and Asheville, NC be damned. At one time the Jeffersonian Tenth Amendment would have made states the recipients of most tax monies (the federal government funding was limited to tariffs) and interfering in foreign affairs (ie, stealing other countries resources) was unthinkable.
"Last month, the House Committee on Small Business released a report that details the lengths to which the GEC has gone to evade congressional oversight."
Congress would never have paid any attention to this DESPITE the fact that they APPROVED the appropriations, were it not for the reporting on it. In all likelihood the Continuing Resolution is STILL pouring money into this (and will until they pass a new budget and new appropriation).
When are people going to grasp how this crap went on the whole time Trump was President? And will still go on because Congress really doesn't care who the President is - they'll fund and fund and fund, and the Republicans are only just slightly less bad than the Democrats.
The administration doesn't make the decision. What on earth makes you think that Trump is going to change that? He not only didn't change it last time around, if you look at the budget passed in his last year that was the trillion dollar bump in what is now the baseline.
Fantasy is hopelessness as well. Stop fantasizing that the great hope in the White House will make it alright. The change has to come from a much broader base.
Don't be so sure Trump won't do better this time around. Last time, he (naively) believed that the government was of, for, and by the people and that under new leadership it would pursue the course envisioned by the new leader. Now he knows better, that the government these days is functioning solely to serve itself and the ruling class it enriches. It only cares to expand its power. Knowing better, he may be able do better.
Donald Trump has never impressed me with his ability to recognize and learn from his mistakes (mostly because he'd have to admit he made a mistake). You shouldn't be able to bankrupt a casino even once, and he's managed to do it multiple times. He's married multiple times (and philandered on each one). What on earth makes you think this man learns anything from his very obvious failures?
Let's wait and see. For a guy with no previous political experience whatsoever, he still managed to do much better than his successor in the White House. Now he knows exactly who the threats to American democracy are, and it's the very ones pointing the finger at him.
Well, that's another pretty low bar to clear. I used to say "the republic has survived worse", but I don't say that anymore. The republic kept taking it as a challenge.
No matter how bad you feel Trump is He is still 100 times better than Camel toes. Sad the Stupidity of almost 50% of American Citizens that will vote for Kamala and the demo craps.
Actually he DID realize his mistake in trusting Fauci and Birx on covid.
He brought in Scott Atlas from Stanford University to advise him. Atlas is a leading specialist in public health policy, about which Fauci and Birx did not understand much.
Atlas regularly briefed President Trump. One day he brought two of the three authors of the Great Barrington Declaration, the best analysis of the covid situation and how to move forward, to spend five minutes with the President. President Trump asked them to sit down and began asking questions and discussing their recommendations with them. He spent 45 minutes with them.
That's a fine example of how President Trump is eager to listen to people who know what they are talking about and can help him make decisions.
Bush did NOT provide $16 billion to Iran. Bush did not cozy up to Russia (Obama is ranked as the second friendliest President to Russia/USSR, just below Franklin Roosevelt, who had a world war for part of his time in office, thanks especially to his "Secretary of State" H. Clinton).
The Oligarchs fund these Parties: the Left, the Right, the Greens, the Communists, the Beltway Libertarians, the leading Independents. In The Ledger they are listed under The "UINPARTY" and each Party is run out of OliBanks. Oh, and ditto each Alphabet Agency.
Where do you get off claiming oligarchs fund the Green Party? We’re practically broke fer crissakes. They spend millions trying to knock us off the ballot. Unbelievable
So I suppose you’re a climate scientist. Don’t even bother with a snarky scientists are all bought bs answer. You have no idea what you’re talking about.
You think the President or Congress have any idea what’s going on? They do not, typically. They don’t even read their budgets. They can’t, they don’t have time. These are massive, many thousand page omnibus bills that NOBODY reads.
Exactly, these bastards pass these bills knowing that all this crap is in the bill. They then act shocked when we find out. Even if we get the presidency and both houses, nothing will change because the Republicans are just as slimy and repulsive as the Democratic.
"JUST AS" you say? I think not. The deep state has been under Demoncrat political influence for so long it is unperturbed by occasional Repub governances. The only thing that has any hope of changing the course we’re on is an extended period of Repub Executive and Legislative government control. Mind you if any Repubs arise showing deep state tendencies they need have the shit slapped out of them. With sustained control the freedom-loving people in government need to rise up and rip every single undemocratic principle out of the body politic—right down to bare metal. Only then are the American people back in control—lock, stock and barrel of the government that belongs to THEM.
Is it possible for a government to not devolve into this level of corruption when it can counterfeit its own money at will?
Lessons of our age:
1. if it can be abused, it will be
2. the level of abuse that you can see is a tiny fraction of the actual abuse.
3. by the time you see the effects of the abuse, it has already gone far past that and there are probably many more avenues of abuse being perpetrated that you have yet to discover.
A bit late, but I caught the CSpan interview with Matt Taibbi and I was was extremely impressed with the tone, and the overall attitude of his presentation. Not pedantic, not condescending, not sarcastic, not superior. And above all not confrontational. Just sincere, informative, and intelligent. Everyone should check it out. After the sticky, dishonest debate performance of Walz, this was a real palate cleanser.
Thanks for the link! Matt is succinct, articulate, and right on target. The phrase "government truth squad" says volumes, including the tacit question "Who in the government is qualified to decide what is true when they don't even know what the word "vaccine" means?"
We will never see a segment on government underhandedness or censorship on these subjects on 60 Minutes or Frontline. It’s as if it never happened. Basically if a FOIA response falls in a forest and doesn’t make a sound, did it ever happen?
I'm sure part of the reason is that the whole thing is so complicated, 60 minutes and Frontline would not be able to make a comprehensible program out of it. They make it complicated on purpose.
Plus, so "60 Minutes" is the arbiter of truth? Maybe if you just watched the cameras record, but what if there is editing, going on? May we be let in on the game?
Speaking about censorship, why has Hurricane Helene slipped off the headlines so quickly? Every video I see, and emails from folks I know who live there, report that the rescue effort is primarily state and local, with Feds being nowhere that they have seen. MSM's reporting now has busied itself with complaining about Trump's politicizing the tragedy. This is a glaring projection of what they are doing themselves while censoring reports on the ground. And while we're at it, Hey ! How about all those donations from Hollywood, Oprah, Gates, Clintons, et al? Think they have heard about the hurricane yet?
The Rock and Oprah are busy building homes in Maui. Bill "man tits" Gates is waiting at the airplane hanger for the Epstein express. The Clintons are working on new ways to say the 1st ammendment is racist, homophobic, xenophobic, osteoperobic, anti-black, anti-gay and will not clean the toilet effectively.
Disinformation: If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your insurance, you can keep it. With ACA, the average family will save $2500/year. Covid came from Chinese people eating bats in a wet market in Wuhan down the street from the Center of Virology. If you say you think Covid came from a lab leak, you're a racist bigot. Trump had a golden shower tape of him with a couple of Russian hookers. Ukraine is winning the war with Russia and will bring the Russian bear to its knees. Also, you can only buy pharmaceuticals here in the US because if you buy them from France they are dangerous.
"by researching “how narratives shape reality and how manipulations of the information environment threaten democratic norms and institutions.”"
So they're keeping an eye on the Democrats?
Right?
Jesus!
These fuckers should just assign us each our own spook & then Neuralink us together so we can nip those errant thoughts in the bud before we think them.
Two of the greats - Patrick McGoohan (who turned down the role of James Bond and recommended an Irish actor whose last name was Connery), and The Prisoner.
Two of my favorites, as well - but, though I don't rank them, I also love Slings & Arrows (called by some "the best television show you never heard of), Northern Exposure (at least the first 3 seasons - it went a bit downhill from there), Firefly, and a few others.
What they have in common is they're all intelligent oddball stuff.
Matt's prodigious research is a gift to us. it must come at great cost to him, personally and professionally. He and other independent journalists have fueled a citizen response that could make a difference. I am also encouraged by the great efforts being made by Greenwald, Profs. Mearsheimer and Sachs to keep the focus on the genocide in Gaza and the hopeless Ukraine war that continues to throw young men and women into crematoriums, on our tab. Continuing to keep the faith by following these honest reporters is bound to take us to where we need to be in America. To where our homeless, mentally ill, undereducated children, violated women (and their spaces and sports), deliberately divided races, middle class burdened by healthcare premiums and rising food and transportation costs, need to be. To where a reasonable migrant flow needs to be without cities and citizens being forced to pick up the tab while their citizens go without. And today where the victims of Hurricane Helene can be assured that the money to restore their lives will be forthcoming. Things don't look good on that score while MSM is consumed with the "political" aspects of the tragedy rather than the human aspects. Please let me know if you hear anything from George Clooney, Oprah, Bill Gates, Clinton Foundation or Gov. Pritzer (he's a "real billionaire").
Ask most of those employed in the mainstream media (whether left-wing or right wing) what an investigative journalist is and does, and they'll either scratch their heads with a "well, I, uh. . . ," or call you a facist.
As Matt said, he’s making more money than ever before. People WILL pay for reliable, honest reportage. Wake up legacy media … better yet, DON’T wake up. You had your chance and you dropped the ball and lost the game. Good riddance.
I am just going to go watch another true crime story on youtube, because watching the psychotic meth-fueled zombies wreak senseless mayhem is a less scary diversion than pondering a future that the likes of smug arrogant quackademics like Scott Ruston with his well capitalized upward mobility will create. Chamomile tea just doesn’t do it.
I have to credit Jose Vega, who crashed a pompous meeting with Robert Reich and other economists trying to figure out why The People have the wrong impression about how healthy it is. Vega is running for office in the Bronx and does brilliant disruptions. We can all take a lesson.
If you hate Trump, think about who else hates him: It’s almost everyone in the world in power: radical Communists, progressives, corrupt crony capitalists, and elite Republicans — all of them predatory globalists! These people hate everything America stands for that stands in their way: The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the American Dream, American exceptionalism, the Judeo-Christian traditions and religions, national sovereignty for all nations, and individual and political freedom.
If you hate Trump, then you — like many other fine people — have been hoodwinked by the apex global predators who lie to you in every way possible, using the major media, social media, the entertainment industry, and every level of formal education. They feel compelled to get rid of Donald Trump — along with you and I as free individuals — in order to impose control over us under their global governance.
The globalists have done their best to make you distrust and dislike Trump, including censoring him on social media, the first one-party attempts at impeachment, fake lawsuits, and now assassination attempts. Nonetheless, his political record is outstanding, and that is why they attacked him so personally. He is our only president since George Washington to stand specifically without equivocation or compromise on an American First policy.
Let go of making political judgments on the basis of “I don’t like him” or “I like him,” and instead, make your decision on whether or not you want America to survive as a free and prosperous nation in the ongoing fight for freedom. We now must choose between movements:
America First or First Destroy America. This is the most urgent moment in our lives to take a stand for freedom!
There is no surer sign of a government in decline then an obsession with controlling “information “ The US government’s unfunded liabilities recently passed 300 Trillion $ . These 2 things are not unrelated as the facts get worse government becomes obsessed with control of the “narrative “
Disgusting. This is the way government tries to get around the First Amendment.
tries? I think they succeeded.
Temporarily. The battle has just begun. The first step is exposing their misdeeds, which we are seeing right here. Next I anticipate a lawfare campaign to weaken the First Amendment. That effort will be spearheaded by DOJ unless Trump wins.

*People who used to work for the Federal government. Because they want to serve their fellow citizens.
It is hard to fight these things when we are made to fund them.
That's the worst part, right? We're literally funding our own censorship.
Please, God, if Trump is elected, inspire him and show him the way to 'clear the temples' of this filth.
Control of Congress is critical. We need to get more involved in the political parties, too. They're a mess.
Absolutely! What's that saying - 'if you're not part of the solution then you're part of the problem'.
Funded, then hide their purpose. State secrecy and democratic self rule are opposing concepts.
Now I understand why our leaders were loathe to form an intelligence agency until WW2.
Center on Narrative, Disinformation and Strategic Influence? Global engagement Center? Do they read orwell’s books to find these horrible names?
Don't remember much coverage of the Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act of 2016, which largely was created to enable "Russia, Russia, Russia" and the domestic resistance to Orange Man Bad.

But, Kamala is pro small business. Joy and Vacuity! Nothing to see here.
When are people going to grasp how this crap went on the whole time Trump was President? And will still go on because Congress really doesn't care who the President is - they'll fund and fund and fund, and the Republicans are only just slightly less bad than the Democrats.
Assuming a Too Big to Rig outcome for Trump, defunding GEC and its parasites will be the acid test of the new administration.
The administration doesn't make the decision. What on earth makes you think that Trump is going to change that? He not only didn't change it last time around, if you look at the budget passed in his last year that was the trillion dollar bump in what is now the baseline.
Since his last term dark forces tried to blow his head off at a campaign event.
Maybe that has changed his mind.
Hopelessness serves the interests of the regime.
Time will tell.
“Hopelessness serves the interests of the regime” that, by god, is the clarion call .
Fantasy is hopelessness as well. Stop fantasizing that the great hope in the White House will make it alright. The change has to come from a much broader base.
Don't be so sure Trump won't do better this time around. Last time, he (naively) believed that the government was of, for, and by the people and that under new leadership it would pursue the course envisioned by the new leader. Now he knows better, that the government these days is functioning solely to serve itself and the ruling class it enriches. It only cares to expand its power. Knowing better, he may be able do better.
In addition to having better advisors like RFK Jr and Tulsi Gabbard to ensure he appoints the right people this time.
Needs to bring back Kash Patel
Looks like he did.
Donald Trump has never impressed me with his ability to recognize and learn from his mistakes (mostly because he'd have to admit he made a mistake).

There are many more!
I'll vote for anyone the media hates.
when will they recognize that it all began with Obama?
And that Obama mostly carried on (or expanded) what was happening under Bush.
Bush did NOT provide $16 billion to Iran. Bush did not cozy up to Russia (Obama is ranked as the second friendliest President to Russia/USSR, just below Franklin Roosevelt, who had a world war for part of his time in office, thanks especially to his "Secretary of State" H. Clinton).
Bush had a different set of enemies for the U.S. to focus on, and didn't include Russia (or China) in the Axis of Evil.
Russia only became problematic when it became obvious that Putin wouldn't be another Yeltsin.
He expanded on what Bush was doing with 9-11, the War on Terror, the Patriot Act, and the DHS. Weaponizing government against the individual.

The military has a nice phrase for it - the self-licking ice cream cone.

Since the Green Party replaced real environmentalism with Climate Alarmism.
So I suppose you’re a climate scientist. Don’t even bother with a snarky scientists are all bought bs answer. You have no idea what you’re talking about.
They are all hooked on OPM.

Hate to say it, but we're not voting our way out of this. Our intelligence agencies will make sure of that.
I think you're right
Just like we're still apparently funneling money to Afghanistan.
Read my post to see what else Congress has done to stretch the reach of sensorship.
Is it possible for a government to not devolve into this level of corruption when it can counterfeit its own money at will?
Lessons of our age:
1. if it can be abused, it will be

3. by the time you see the effects of the abuse, it has already gone far past that and there are probably many more avenues of abuse being perpetrated that you have yet to discover.
A bit late, but I caught the CSpan interview with Matt Taibbi and I was was extremely impressed with the tone, and the overall attitude of his presentation.

I'm always impressed with how Matt comes across.
Thanks for the link! Matt is succinct, articulate, and right on target. The phrase "government truth squad" says volumes, including the tacit question "Who in the government is qualified to decide what is true when they don't even know what the word "vaccine" means?"
Thanks! Just watched that. Matt may turn out to be the kid with his finger in the dyke. If he can hold out
Of course he can hold out…the man played basketball in Mongolia. He’s unstoppable.
Terrific analogy!
Thanks for posting the link.
Thank you so much for this link!
Absolutely a must watch. Thanks for puttting thr link out there
We will never see a segment on government underhandedness or censorship on these subjects on 60 Minutes or Frontline. It’s as if it never happened. Basically if a FOIA response falls in a forest and doesn’t make a sound, did it ever happen?
I'm sure part of the reason is that the whole thing is so complicated, 60 minutes and Frontline would not be able to make a comprehensible program out of it. They make it complicated on purpose.
there's nothing complicated about someone with their hand over your mouth!
Correct.
It is more complicated when the hand is over someone else's mouth.
I "like" this.
Plus, so "60 Minutes" is the arbiter of truth? Maybe if you just watched the cameras record, but what if there is editing, going on? May we be let in on the game?
We get to know what we need to know.
Speaking about censorship, why has Hurricane Helene slipped off the headlines so quickly? Every video I see, and emails from folks I know who live there, report that the rescue effort is primarily state and local, with Feds being nowhere that they have seen.

And while we're at it, Hey ! How about all those donations from Hollywood, Oprah, Gates, Clintons, et al? Think they have heard about the hurricane yet?
The Rock and Oprah are busy building homes in Maui. Bill "man tits" Gates is waiting at the airplane hanger for the Epstein express. The Clintons are working on new ways to say the 1st ammendment is racist, homophobic, xenophobic, osteoperobic, anti-black, anti-gay and will not clean the toilet effectively.
Clinton grifters are trying to figure out how to funnel money to the Clinton Foundation.
You mean busy building THEIR homes - not helping those who were burned out. 🤨
Taylor Swift just donated 5 Million dollars. Trying to recover fans after her endorsement of Harris?
LOL!
Any positive news on the tragedy is seen as a helping hand for Trump. These basrards would do anything to thwart Trump.
Almost anything….they would never try to kill him.

A very hairy Sean Connery in bondage gear.
Fun times.
I'm always picturing McGoohan wandering through The Village in The Prisoner.
Two of the greats - Patrick McGoohan (who turned down the role of James Bond and recommended an Irish actor whose last name was Connery), and The Prisoner.
The Prisoner is, by far, my favorite TV show.
Followed closely by Monty Python.
Which should be a fair indication of where my head has been at for decades.
Two of my favorites, as well - but, though I don't rank them, I also love Slings & Arrows (called by some "the best television show you never heard of), Northern Exposure (at least the first 3 seasons - it went a bit downhill from there), Firefly, and a few others.
What they have in common is they're all intelligent oddball stuff.
Thanks for the organized guide to the disclosure at the bottom. It really simplifies things, for anyone that wants to go to the source material.
Matt's prodigious research is a gift to us. it must come at great cost to him, personally and professionally.

Very well said. 👏🏻
Anti-disinformation campaigns are all about censoring the truth, not finding it.
So yes, all censors are corrupted souls.
The only people that should be telling other people what to do are parents speaking to their minor children.
I am just going to go watch another true crime story on youtube, because watching the psychotic meth-fueled zombies wreak senseless mayhem is a less scary diversion than pondering a future that the likes of smug arrogant quackademics like Scott Ruston with his well capitalized upward mobility will create. Chamomile tea just doesn’t do it.
"quackademics" - delicious. I will most probably steal that. But I will footnote that it came from a brilliant Commenter on SubStack. 😉

If You Still Hate Trump…
If you hate Trump, think about who else hates him: It’s almost everyone in the world in power: radical Communists, progressives, corrupt crony capitalists, and elite Republicans — all of them predatory globalists! These people hate everything America stands for that stands in their way: The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the American Dream, American exceptionalism, the Judeo-Christian traditions and religions, national sovereignty for all nations, and individual and political freedom.
If you hate Trump, then you — like many other fine people — have been hoodwinked by the apex global predators who lie to you in every way possible, using the major media, social media, the entertainment industry, and every level of formal education. They feel compelled to get rid of Donald Trump — along with you and I as free individuals — in order to impose control over us under their global governance.
The globalists have done their best to make you distrust and dislike Trump, including censoring him on social media, the first one-party attempts at impeachment, fake lawsuits, and now assassination attempts. Nonetheless, his political record is outstanding, and that is why they attacked him so personally. He is our only president since George Washington to stand specifically without equivocation or compromise on an American First policy.
Let go of making political judgments on the basis of “I don’t like him” or “I like him,” and instead, make your decision on whether or not you want America to survive as a free and prosperous nation in the ongoing fight for freedom. We now must choose between movements:
America First or First Destroy America. This is the most urgent moment in our lives to take a stand for freedom!

Right on, doc. I could care less about liking or not liking a politician. Results matter, not much else.
There is no surer sign of a government in decline then an obsession with controlling “information “ The US government’s unfunded liabilities recently passed 300 Trillion $ . These 2 things are not unrelated as the facts get worse government becomes obsessed with control of the “narrative “
They are most definitely Reel later. Thanks for bringing that up
