    • Basically I’m not completely sure. But I’ve been reading up for a while now and have been trying to get a handle on it. You could say one or more of the following:
      a) it’s a win/win scenario for the so-called elites: they achieve either population reduction (like the eugenicists would applaud although not something similar to the Spanish flu) OR that the Coronavirus serves as good excuse to control the population.
      b) this Corona-virus is not ‘the Big One’ or at least not yet (2022 could be the peak):
      https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/disease/who-names-this-coronavirus-a-world-emergency/
      c) it could be a biological weapon since it appears to target Chinese/Asians more than other etnicities
      d) it most probably is a good idea to prepare (indeed, check out Chris Mortenson’s work on https://www.peakprosperity.com/)

      • I occasionally watch Chris Mortenson’s reports because he offers pretty good information, but unfortunately, he might be pro-vaccine.
        Geez! I can just see folks getting a COVID-19 vaccine, then shedding a live virus to everyone else, like we have seen with other vaccines.

        ALUMINUM, or more correctly AluminIum
        In this Chris Mortenson video “Coronavirus, the potential for a vaccine, and the cytokine storm!”, he discusses the research and bad effects of a coronavirus type vaccine.
        QUEUED video
        https://youtu.be/HrqRAtViUZw?t=14m4s
        At around the 16:10 minute mark, he highlights how “alum” is used as an adjuvant.
        “Alum” is Aluminium.

        Taking some quotes from journalist Celeste McGovern
        …a human immunology journal describing a condition called ASIA – Autoimmune/Inflammatory Syndrome Induced by Adjuvants.
        Aluminum adjuvants used in human vaccines were known to elicit a hyperactive immune response in some people, and to set off immune system cascades that could later manifest as overt autoimmune disease. The aluminum ingredient in vaccines was connected to diseases such as encephalitis, macrophagic myofasciitis and Gulf War Illness….

        Basically, because Aluminium is toxic, the body has a very, very strong immune response to it. This is why vaccine makers use Aluminium, and why many vaccines will not pass muster if Aluminium is not used as an adjuvant. Aluminium in the blood stream tends to trick the body to fight any “foreign substance” which also might be there.
        ALLERGIES – Future allergies can be induced, because an individual who received an Aluminium tainted vaccine also had a certain food or other substance in their system.

        Anyway, that’s my ‘dime show’ about vaccines and Aluminium.

        A wealth of information about ALUMINIUM and even its DETOX can be found halfway down this webpage as you scroll down.

    • My opinion, based off of speculation and observation of my immediate environment, after considering all sources readily available to me, is that, in America, at least, we all got sprayed with some virus while the China theater was in action.

    • I think there are many factors at play. Nomorefakenews.org has written many articles exposing this fake pandemic. There have been many other fake pandemics like SARs, swine flu, Zika, etc.
      I think the following agendas are at play.
      1. Need detention/quarantine centers to really go after political opponents. China is doing that and USA is going to quarantine people in military bases ( now foreigners)with supposedly this virus.
      2. Push mandatory vaccines. First they got to get the quarantine centers up and running first.
      3. This video shows sulphur dioxide may be causing it since those areas in china with supposedly the virus match up with high sulphur dioxide. It is high in those areas due to agenda 21 and the free trade zones where sulphur dioxide are high. Here is the link. https://youtu.be/8tGxE4BJA-I.
      There are links on her facebook page that shows satelite images of high sulphur dioxide in those areas.
      3. 5G is rolling out there. So 5G with sulphur dioxide can make many sick.

    • Don’t drink the KoolAid – Aghhh! Hazmat Guys spill Coronavirus on New York Subway

      EXCERPTS except for ( ) which is my edits.
      …Two teens ‘terrified’ (tricked) a subway car full of (a few) unsuspecting – and almost unbelievably gullible – passengers on the NYC subway this past week when they dressed in fake hazmat suits and pretended to spill a container full of “coronavirus” on the floor of their car.

      The two teens, identified as Queens pranksters David Flores, 17, and Morris Cordwell, 19, according to the New York Post, sat calmly with their equipment and ominous-looking container after boarding the train. But they soon turned the chaotic hilarity up to ’11’.

      One passenger allegedly asked the boys: “Is that coronavirus”?

      They responded with thumbs up gestures and told passengers that it was coronavirus, but that they were all “good”.

      Then suddenly, one of the boys fell to the floor and spilled the red kool aid they were using as the fake ‘coronavirus.’

      (A few) passengers screamed and panicked. Fortunately, nobody was hurt….

    • If you were here for H1N1 (“Swine Flu”), you already know what this is:
      An MSM illusion created to instill the fear needed to push “vaccines” and more police state expansion (in the name of protection against pandemic).

      …According to the Bangkok Post, villages in Vietnam with 10,000 people close to the nation’s capital were placed under quarantine on Thursday after six cases of the deadly new coronavirus were discovered there, authorities said.

      The locking down of the commune of Son Loi, about 40 kilometres from Hanoi, is the first mass quarantine outside of China since the virus emerged from Wuhan.

      “As of February 13, 2020, we will urgently implement the task of isolation and quarantine of the epidemic area in Son Loi commune,” said a health ministry statement. “The timeline… is for 20 days”.

      The health ministry previously said five people in Son Loi – which is a farming region made up of several villages – had been infected with the virus, and on Thursday reported a sixth case. At that time, checkpoints were set up around the commune, in Binh Xuyen, a district on the outskirts of Son Loi, according to AFP reporters .

      Health officials wearing protective suits sprayed disinfectant on vehicles by the checkpoints.

      Even ahead of the quarantine, local resident Tran Van Minh told AFP that authorities had already advised residents to avoid large gatherings. “Life has been badly affected,” he told AFP by phone, adding that much of the labor force is reliant on jobs in construction and house painting.

      “Now we cannot get out and even if we do, clients don’t welcome us that much as before.”…

        Scientists say the pangolin endangered by Chinese smuggling may have passed the coronavirus to humans
        https://qz.com/africa/1802364/coronavirus-pangolins-endangered-by-chinese-trade-a-carrier/?utm_source=YPL&yptr=yahoo

        EXCERPTS
        Before now news stories about pangolins, endangered ant-eating scaly mammals found in West and Central Africa and Asia, have focused on how China’s insatiable thirst for their meat and scales has led to a rapid decline in its global population.

        The recent news linking the animal to China may change this trend as pangolins have been reported to have likely transmitted to humans the novel coronavirus that has caused the death of over 1,300 people in mainland China.

        The pangolin was reported to be the most likely intermediate host from which humans contracted the novel coronavirus. The pangolin-vector claim was made public on Feb. 7 by researchers at South China Agricultural University who said they found the genome sequence of the coronavirus separated from pangolins to be 99% identical to that collected from infected people…

        …However, the study has not been published and so has not gone through the usual peer review for verification. The report is also inconclusive and at the moment is only viewed as a suggestion.

        Though coronavirus researchers are waiting for the publication of the research before they can come to any significant conclusions, this is not the first time the pangolin has been reported as a possible source of human coronavirus infection. In October, before the coronavirus epidemic, Chinese researchers reported that a coronavirus was found in pangolins and that it may be capable of crossing over into other mammals….

          Why Is the Mortality Rate So Low Outside of China?

          Vaccines?
          EXCERPTS
          …The current mortality rate outside of China is very low, I estimate around 0.005%, compared to the 2.3% rate in China. Most if not all of the deaths outside of China have involved Chinese citizens who have traveled abroad.

          Current hypotheses include that a covert SARS vaccination program was included in the national mandatory vaccination program started on Dec 1, 2019 that happened to involve a secondary true outbreak of Coronavirus with secondary exposure…

          … Another possibility is that a vaccine used by the Chinese has weakened their response to an otherwise mild coronavirus infection. SARS 2 binding to ACE2 is weaker. Thimerosal (mercury) inhibits ERAP1. Vaccination with aluminum hydroxide containing vaccines might induce autoimmunity in the lungs. All of these factors could play a role in making vaccinated individuals more susceptible.

          A third possibility is that people in that geographic region who had prior SARS infections might be less able to fight off SARS 2 simply due to original antigenic sin from infection. Toronto, Canada, take note….

        • Homey, that reminds me of the casino life . The brazen and most audacious of bad actors cared little for the eye in the sky. They knew as well as we did the bluff of authority to control bad behavior was non existent. It would take weeks to compile a report and catch a thief. That would only happen if the thief returned to the scene a dozen times. All authority could manage was to get lucky. The facial recognition was there but poor and depended on mobilizing the troops to catch the crook phyically?
          Do they have a faster response time in China, are their more officers all over the place getting real time data?
          I would think the punishment threat was real if you got caught, like in becoming a lab rat for the state where we just showed the crook the door and said dont come back. The facial recognition still only got em 1 out of a hundred times. Floor walkers with a memory got many more than AI.
          I suppose a million chaps on a million screens could monitor 10 million people but still thats not a high rate of return. A bluff. Probably death if caught. Crime. Likely will congeal.

          • I have to wonder if like the casino brass the Chinese brass are not interested in curing the theft or abhorrent behavior of the criminal class. Just let it run to accomplish the ultimate goal. The casino rarely ever issued a life ban. That hardly ever happened. The harassing of gamblers was suppressed because you never turn a mark away from the take. The ones you denied gambled with veracity. We showed them the door when they were broke and before they started to prey on the other marks. Is China doing the same for a bigger agenda. I’m suspecting so.
            The 5g info fits in there on one side of the equation. Thats some good finds and very informative.

            All is frequency and going back to Royal Rife’s work, Poppy Nazi Crum and Neo-life, Candlelight s 5g find, the future seems to be a test for rewards or punishment unknown since the slave trades of 1600s.
            All done in vivo by frequency manipulation at a distance. Once the infrastructures in and the tests begin there is no going back to Africa to a native life.
            Yeah this needs attention down on the square . In to action. The slavers are off the coast in sheep’s clothing and the children are on the beach laying flower pedals down for their future enslavement. Its always up to the elders to protect. This really sucks.

            • Like James said while talking to Brose , paraphrased ‘ look at those terrible Chinese and what they are doing, wait maybe tthere’s something we could use?
              If that is really how power gels than I remember the solution Mkey offered up a year or so ago. Again I paraphrase his suggestion.’ they put em up we smash them in place’. Sorry I can’t find it it was really quite brilliant.
              On Rife and frequently he was using a range from 100k hertz to 800k hertz to either start or stop the virus growth.

      Currently there is no solid evidence nor conclusions over the virus’ origin. Nonetheless, a comment by China’s former military scientist is sparking heated discussions.
      A former official at China’s military hospital #302 talks about the possibility of using gene editing to create a supervirus.

      However, recently oil and some commodities have declined in response to China’s situation.

      The following February 16th news article from the Chinese newspaper, Global Times, may have an impact on global markets.

      Chinese Finance Minister Liu Kun sent a clear signal that China would not stimulate the economy by rolling out another massive monetary stimulus.

      • I should have paid better attention to my mentor when he said,
        “They speak with forked tongue, Kemosabe”.

        As it turns out, despite what the Chinese Finance Minister said about “no monetary stimulus”, on the following day, the Chinese Central Bank again does a monetary stimulus.
        QUOTE
        With the US closed for president’s day (Monday 17th), the attention was on China, where both cases and deaths linked to the Coronavirus hit a new all time high of over 70,000 and 1,775 respectively. The yuan climbed after China cut rates and added medium-term funding to banks to cushion the impact of a virus outbreak; specifically, the People’s Bank of China offered 200 billion yuan ($29 billion) of one-year medium-term loans on Monday. The rate was lowered by 10 basis points to 3.15%

        As a result of the latest burst of monetary stimulus (which came at a time when the finance ministry warned that China would have to pursue austerity on the fiscal side), the Shanghai Composite soared almost 2.3% while gains in China’s CSI 300 Index have recouped all losses since trading resumed after the Lunar New Year break, after the central bank unveiled plans to reduce corporate taxes and fees….

            Fed to Withdraw More Liquidity Than Expected Amid Funding Calm

            EXCERPTS
            …The central bank on Thursday announced a new schedule for both overnight and 14-day term repo operations through March 12. Starting next week, the term offerings will drop by $5 billion, to a maximum of $25 billion, and those starting March 3 will shrink again, to a maximum of $20 billion. The bank’s daily overnight operations, meanwhile, will drop by $20 billion, to a limit of $100 billion.

            This marks the second straight month the Fed is reducing liquidity injections. It said in mid-January that it would reduce term operations by $5 billion starting in February. These operations have been oversubscribed this month, but analysts say the demand from dealers hasn’t indicated renewed stress in funding markets, or concern about bank reserves. Instead, the strong bidding is seen as simply underscoring that the rates dealers can get in these operations are lower than prevailing market rates.

            “This decrease is a bit faster than expected,” said Gennadiy Goldberg, a senior U.S. rates strategist at TD Securities. “Given the functioning of the money markets recently, they’re probably feeling a bit more confident they can take away some of the repo support more quickly without market disruptions.”

            The newly scheduled offerings will provide liquidity through March 26. The Fed has been conducting repos and Treasury-bill purchases in a bid to keep control of short-term rates and bolster bank reserves. The efforts have calmed markets since the September spike that took overnight repo rates as high as 10%, and helped quell concern about a potential cash crunch at the end of 2019….

      Article of February 6, 2020
      Chinese Netizens and Expert Suspect Wuhan Bioresearch Lab Is the Source of the Coronavirus
      https://www.ntd.com/the-origin-of-the-coronavirus-report_431784.html
      (It is worth the short read,)

      A few EXCERPTS
      …A social media user named Wu Xiaohua, with a Ph.D. in biological related fields according to his WeChat profile, challenged Shi (Deputy Director of Wuhan’s P4 Lab) to answer key questions about the suspicious gene mutations found in the new virus.

      Wu pointed out there is no way that these mutations are the outcome of natural recombination.

      “Now, many scientists, including Shi herself, believe that this virus must have originated from bats, and would involve one or two virus hosts to explain the gene mutations. Based on current scientific publications, the virus must jump from rats to primates before it can infect humans. Then how is this step—from rats to primates—usually achieved? It can only be done in a research lab by scientists inserting a certain protein from primates into rats,” Wu wrote.

      “I have personally performed the same type of genetic engineering experiments. You cannot get away by being cavalier. Do you dare to accept the challenge and give us an explanation?” he asked.

      Wu also disclosed that some biolabs in China are very poorly regulated.

      “For instance, some researchers in these labs kept the laboratory dogs as pets; some disposed of animal carcasses casually because following the biosafety rules and cremating them costs a lot of money. Some cut up the laboratory pigs and took the meat home to eat. I know this happened at Beijing 301 Hospital’s spine surgery lab. Worst of all, some laboratory animals were sold to wet markets as wild-caught animals for profit,” he wrote.

      Xu Bo, a well-known IT magnate and billionaire in China, cited reports and articles to support Wu’s statements.

      In his blog, Xu cited a news report about a lawsuit against biologist Li Ning.

      Li is an academician of China Engineering Academy, and a former professor at China Agricultural University. The judgment in Li’s case, which came out on Jan. 2 this year, stated that between 2008 and 2012, Li’s lab sold experimental pigs, cows, and milk to local markets. These animal and animal products were bought using research funds; but Li and his fellow colleagues pocketed the money, a total of 10,179,201 yuan ($1,460,304), from the sale of these animals and animal products.

      Li was sentenced to 12 years in prison for embezzlement….

      • SCROLL DOWN and Up this THREAD to see many VIDEOS and IMAGES coming out of China during this early 2020 era.

        • I had relatives in China and throughout SE Asia informing my parents about a virus illness going around before any of these so called whistleblowers came forward. Dozens of local news media and local governments were already talking about it

          Some within the government were accused of keeping secrets but it was more likely an excuse to get rid of those that outlived their usefulness or might possibly blow the whistle on the lockdown plans.

          There was absolutely no secrecy. Yes there were many places that did not cover a virus pneumonia going around but there was enough of the public to spread rumors to their family and friends thus letting everyone know about it.

          That strategy made many people buy into the story because there was a perception that the new virus was a secret that got leaked. But anyone with paying close attention could see that nothing was ever hidden in regards to the virus specifically.

      • “Race-based”
        Blacks absorb more Lead than Caucasians

        There are many studies about alleles (genetic traits) with different ethnic groups.
        In my opinion, genetic traits certainly can make one race more susceptible than another to a specific environmental factor.

        FLUORIDE
        I have heard a variety of researchers in the Fluoride community mention the hypothesis that because Blacks have one or two alleles, they are more prone to lead poisoning by a large margin vs Caucasian.
        fluoridealert.org has a long list of studies mentioned when you type in “alleles”.

        Blacks absorb more Lead than Caucasians.

    • Further evidence to the erosion of our civil liberty. Is the 2012 lawsuit by Chris Hedges against Obama and congress for enacting the, “Defense Authorization Act.” This allows the US military to be used against the US citizens. Needless to say Chris did not ultimately prevail.

    • Wow…this appears to be some more post-modern nonsense coupled with “critical theory”. The scholarship of these publications is terrible, with dogmatic assertions passing for “research” when in reality they are more compatible with “grievence studies”.

      For an in depth analysis of this phenomenon – look at the work of Peter Bhogosian and James Lindsey.

        • You’re welcome Bart…hope that helps. 🙂

      • Ethan these panelists hit on how spineless administration’s navigate the weak academics into a helplessness for financail political gain at the expense of hard discourse and old school values that discovery truths. Snowflakes. The tail wagging the dog.

        Academic Institutions are in deep trouble. Bastions of liberalism run amok .

        • I wholeheartedly agree…I was going to go back to college but have since changed my mind because of the madness that has taken over.

      • Yes it is…and thanks for the feedback.

        I don’t agree with Pluckrose, Bhogosian, and Lindsey on their leftist stance…but it does illustrate how far the radical left has “left” the reasonable left that used to inhabit the universities but are now inhabited by these “crazies” that have taken over the asylum – figuratively AND literally.

  1. Can we talk more about how Voluntaryism would work? I recall James talking about how some societies can institute whatever political system they want but how do we get there from what we have today? Is it just changing people’s minds and then what? Is it to decentralise power as much as possible by voting for parties to do so?

    • Voluntaryism is in play and working any time you volunteer to do anything that under ‘normal economic conditions’ would have to be compensated for. Voluntaryism is just doing things based off of your own principles and of your own moral judgment of what should be done regardless of someone else directing you. So, no, nobody is going to be voted into office to decentralize power to make it more comfortable to volunteer and I would wager the only mind that would change is yours as you see how independent of an effort Voluntaryism is. Do you think you can keep on volunteering, without compensation, maybe even without the emotional reciprocation of ‘good job’ or, at worst, having your good will taken advantage of? Can you break laws that say you’re not qualified to act in a certain way or be in a certain place? Will you maintain your altruism even if nobody follows you lead? If so, then Voluntaryism will work because you will be setting the example and showing others how it will work.

      • “Do you think you can keep on volunteering, without compensation, maybe even without the emotional reciprocation of ‘good job’ or, at worst, having your good will taken advantage of?

        Excellent points!
        I’m a practical dude.
        Can you point to groups/societies today who are making this work, on a full-time basis, and gaining traction?
        ie. the movement is growing with proven results?

        • In answer to your question, no I cannot. Im not really a power networker, though, so someone else might know.

          Forgive me for being cynical but I think waiting for other people to be the example is futile.

          I am of the anarchic persuasion and while learning about rules and rulers and making and being your own; I learned a great deal about the responsibility one has to oneself. If you decide to go your own way and be your own king/queen then you owe to yourself to build your character to the level of true royalty, truly uncommon.

          So, in regards to volunteering, in my opinion, if a sovereign individual wishes to offer his/her services willingly, then that person should do it in a way that comes from their heart. Their action should play specifically to their talents, wherein their art lies, continuing to make more aspects of their life a living masterpiece.

          Personally, I’m into all things health related; so I offer up any goods or services I can provide. Or many times just physical labor. Though, in my realm, I don’t just offer my energy to anyone. I’m picky, I spend it on those close to me, my co-kings and co-queens but to them I will give anything, anytime. Keeping it personal is keeping it practical. However small, my realm is my society and volunteering is redundant as my assistance is always granted.

          At first, when replying, I thought about all the times I’ve picked up trash in the nearby wilderness but then I realized that, I do that for myself, like it’s my yard.

        Medhead, That is such an appropriately timed topic now since James is headed to Mexico for Anarchapulco 2020.

        James Corbett talks about Voluntaryism in this “Questions For Corbett #045 – What’s Your Endgame?”, although he has other videos about the topic.
        I like the way he expresses things.
        QUEUED VIDEO (A few minutes)
        https://youtu.be/4-PwqVhd0nQ?t=11m45s

        It is very much worthwhile to rewind the video and listen to James discuss his friends, family and broaching topics like 9/11.

  2. Astronomers have been watching the waning light of Betelgeuse for many decades (or is it centuries? I think I read the Aborigines noted its fluctuations before a noted astronomer made it broadly known), and some are now setting February 21st as the day they’ll know if it will (or was since it’s about 640 light years away) be the closest supernova bucket list event or not (??). Anyway, interesting articles on this starting with Watts Up (lots of good comments too):

    • Yeah, sharks in the streets got a grin from me.

    • Variations in the galactic currents cause stars to become more or less active. These currents are often called Birkeland currents, and have been discovered by Birkeland.

      These currents are also responsible for magnetic field and the arms of the galaxies. They are hard to observe, and only recently we have found gas clouds shaped like these currents. Strong magnetic fields in galaxies are well known. It is also proposed as a solution for dark matter, together with sparse plasma clouds around galaxies. The power that drives the currents are still under discussion.

      • Zyxzevn, you were in my mind when I was hopping around the web reading the Betelgeuse rumors; I knew you’d have insight (as you did regarding the “black hole discovery”) so I’m thrilled to read your comment! I’m betting you’re right. I often share your contributions with my son who enjoys wrestling with harder things like quantum theories so this latest will be sweet music to his ears. Thank you!

      • Amazing anecdote.
        I grasp what you are saying.
        Times have really changed.

      • That’s so sad!! Last year, my two oldest were in class when their English teacher said she’d had lots of complaints from many of her students (all high school grads mind you, this was at the community college) who could neither read nor write cursive (they weren’t taught!), so she switched to manuscript. I asked them if her writing was illegible, they said it looked perfectly normal to them.

        • alexandre, I’m arriving VERY late to this Open Thread, which, I see, is approaching 450 intelligent comments from many, many Corbett fans!

          I promised gbw I’d scan the thread until I found your name, because he told me (in an email) that one thing you wrote made him laugh for at least 10 minutes! Your jumping off the bridge twice made me guffaw–but I don’t know if that’s the remark gbw has in mind!

          In any case, alexandre, could you please do me a favor and post the hyperlink to the China video that you said HRS supplied a few comments up? I can’t find it midst his deluge of posts (smiles). I guess I’m being masochistic in wanting to see what in heaven’s name (or hell’s name) you’re talking about!

          Thanks, my friend,

          P.S. My request assumes you changed your mind about jumping even once, much less twice.

        • alexandre, a minute ago, I finally found HRS’s military games link. It’s a lot lower in the thread, so it wasn’t that I’d missed it, it was that I hadn’t yet reached it. Thanks for supplying it so fast, and I’ll be sure to arm myself against the horror by taking a dose of . . . oh, sorry, I’ve never taken any kind of drug in my life, so I don’t think I want to start now! 🙂

          Please promise me you’ll quit training for those double-death dives! If you don’t, I’ll I’ll I’ll . . . fly to Brazil to (nicely) knock some sense into you. (Oh, I forgot, I can’t. I don’t wanna get an up-to-date passport. Nor do I wanna get a REAL ID gold star stuck on my driver’s license. Which means I won’t be flying even within the states come October. No more TSA pat downs for me. We’ll see how long I can hold out.)

  3. Sort of Questions for Corbett, sort of suggestion: I know he’s dead and gone now, but I was surprised to see you never made a comprehensive video on John McCain and his legacy. I have followed his story for a long time, but when I tried to explain things about him to a friend I found I had a hard time finding good sources. In absence of such a video, do you or any corbetteers have some good links on real and accurate information on him and his legacy? Articles or videos would be really great. I looked through bitchute for videos but most were just silly Trump stuff of little substance.

    • Dan the Man, to the Ultra;

      When you use the search bar at Corbett Report, a variety of things come up.
      (e.g. article/video which has referenced links on John McCain “Foreign Intervention and the Ukraine Crisis” )

      I often have good success using “Corbett Report” and keywords on a DuckDuckGo search.

      911blogger likely has some information.
      http://911blogger.com/search/node/John%20McCain

    • I’m not sure James would find it very useful to put time into such a project.

      I was reminded recently about the McCain foreword written in the revised 2006 Popular Mechanics book, “Debunking 9/11 Myths: Why Conspiracy Theories Can’t Stand Up to the Facts”.

      I know we shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, nor a man by his foreword, nor give just one particular example, but there are some precious doozies in it that I would encourage others to read for themselves.

      Here is a link to the book where you can read the foreword if you haven’t already.

      https://books.google.ca/books/about/Debunking_9_11_Myths.html?id=3C7JSfnMsbIC&printsec=frontcover&source=kp_read_button&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false

      And here are just a few examples of what Mr. McCain was laying on the public in 2006.

      Remember that “I Watch The Super Bowl Commercials (2020) – #PropagandaWatch” commercial trying to play at our heart strings combining the noble efforts of firefighters with 5G?

      Well McCain employs the same ‘firefighter tactic’ in his foreword.

      • … “America was vulnerable and under attack On September 11, evil literally took flight. But as 19 men showed the world their worst…
        we were attacked not for a wrong we had done, but for who we are…

        As Americans. we acted swiftly. We liberated Afghanistan from the murderous rule of the Taliban, our attackers’ proud hosts. We chased Al Qaeda around the globe. We revamped our homeland security, reorganized our intelligence community, and advocated reform in calcified societies…

        The terrorists who attacked America were clear about their intentions. Osama Bin Laden and his ilk have perverted a peaceful religion, devoting it not to the salvation of souls but to the destruction of bodies. They wish to destroy us, to bring the world under totalitarian rule according to some misguided religious fantasy. Our cherished ideals of freedom. equality, and religious tolerance stand in their way.

        And so they fight us. Their fight is no secret: September 11 was the most horrific of a long string of attacks, from the first World Trade Center bombing in 1993 to the 1998 embassy bombings in Africa to the 2000 attack on the U.S.S. Cole. Al Qaeda does not hide its hand in these crimes; Rather, it boasts of its destruction and calls for more.

        But though the evidence for Al Qaeda’s central role in the 9/11 attacks is overwhelming, many have found the facts unsatisfying…

        Surely something more was at work.
        Such sentiments are not new. Many Americans have resisted the notion that an island nation far from our shores could launch a surprise attack against our Navy (cough); that Communism could remain viable in the world without assistance within the US. government itself; that one man in a book depository could end the life of a beloved president…

        Blaming some conspiracy within our government for the horrific attacks of September 11 mars the memories of all those lost on that day. There were errors and missteps in our government’s response, to be sure, but the performance of our public servants was on the whole heroic, not destructive.
        For their service – for their lives – we are indebted, and we are obliged to pay our debts to those who sacrificed. To blame not a gang of terrorists but some conspiracy for 9/11 insults the police officers and firefighters who raced into the burning towers: the men and women who left for dangerous distant lands to fight our enemies; and those who have fought in all the wars of our history…

        The CIA was not involved in 9/11…
        Bombs or missiles did not fell the towers…

        By refuting destructive beliefs in fanciful tales of mayhem, Popular Mechanics has produced a valuable work that will be an important resource for years to come. It represents the innocent thousands who perished on that terrible day – those innocent thousands who deserve to be remembered with honor and truth.”

  4. Why has two seemingly independent Canadians appeared in the internet medium at opposition corners of the world saying almost identical ideas. According to Victor Efimov in his lectures to FRB we are only allowed half the truth for control by those who possess the whole truth. Here are the examples. The competitions of style of presenting are different but the content is identical. This gives small credence to Efimov and his theories.
    Tony Heller included in his blog today a quote by Mark Twain.” Never tell the truth to people who dont deserve it”

    • MBP, I did warn viewers on the difficulty in viewing. However your keen instincts are right-on as always. The giz. The music , starts coming together after the 33min.mark of an hour long lecture. Its so hard to look at the stars cause they are so boring. Its not until they fall out of the sky that they have any interest to us. All the lectures of how and who chucks them out of heaven are not appreciated as much as the trainwreak in the sky we see. Who cares how its done. Sorry got carried away.
      The 6 ways of control are coming from a very Russian understanding.
      I may be wrong but I love the flavor of the different languages in translation. You speak more than one language. Can I ask you , Dont you dream in that other language as well as your native tongue. Are they not distinctively different? That flavor throws English speaking people off. I found this out learning Spanish. I felt differently after dreaming in Spanish and knew more about that flavor from dreamland than reality ever shared. What is it about bi-tri-quad lingual people ? That flavor changes reality, makes it better, more empathetic? English words fails to describe it.
      I wanted to ask James (Q4C) and any bi-tri lingual persons when did they first dream in a foreign tongue and how profound a revelation it was?

      • MBP. Yes Shiva said ‘ thoughts through energy creates matter. A school of thought, an interesting body of physics says at the edges of the universe information and thought are stored. That is materialized by energy into matter. So thoughts through energy creates matter. Mary Baker Eddy discovered this 140 years ago and brought it into use for everyday living in the form of a medical and spiritual comfort to her community.
        Thats the philosophy of matter that has been perverted by Milner, Rockefeller, Rothschild , you are creater, the energy is God. Words fail so I must rely on experiences. Im not going to here but when you see it in action and
        outcome the rest pales in comparison. Those outcomes that cannot be found in maypoles, orgies and blood sacrifices. Time on the other hand was where I was going.
        Madeline l’Engle . that story you said 1959? The terms are so close to phases and logos of today it is uncanny.
        Intel, Excel, Comatose , IT , AI the pulsing brain. Sounds much in the vane of Frank Russell. How did you come across her? Big tech had to clever off bits of her.

        Also seems that besides Corbett what kind of entertainment is this, this thing we are in. I gotta ask the editor in chief about some of his observations of this thing he created when he gets back.
        Their is enough material here for six months. 213 comments. Thats some energy. Lets see how to turn that into a matter of importance? Bonjour maroon o’ negro sucra?

        • MBP. ” Freedom I Won’t”, “And then there were none”.That Eric Frank Russell.
          For something related to Poppy Nazi Crum in the Lee Enterprises propaganda paper. Today a full page , two sided insert Advertisement ” Wanted 51 candidates, in the Tulsa area to experience AMAZING technology! { a picture of a young woman holding the index finger up with a big black claw shaped thing on the tip of her finger right next to her bright smiling face } Try this new technology at NO COST TO YOU! Take ‘Em & Try ‘Em. { banners below state the creepy things Camille has pointed out.}
          1. HEAR COMFORTABLY; even in the noisiest places, you ( and others ) will experience eased listening effort and SECOND-TO-NONE speech understanding.

          2. BETTER WIRELESS STREAMING; Provides consistent wireless performance through your smartphone or wireless accessories while streaming cell phones, TV’s, music, or other media. ( third parties)

          3. LIVE A MORE ACTIVE AND HEALTHY LIFE; Integrated SENSORS track your BODY and BRAIN health activities and send fall alerts.( it is a receiver to drop you)

          4. SO SMART, IT KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE; The GPS feature in your smartphone detects when you are in TAGGED LOCATIONS and automatically switches modes LIKE WHEN YOU ARRIVE HOME, your personal settings for that location is Activated.( go def or go to reeducation camp)

          I wish I had better news but this takes the cake. It would have been posted in the Camille spot but I can’t find it. I wonder how many , like Hoogland, will be so nieve to not see where this is going. Trust can’t be part of our autonomic system. What are we to do?

        • The paper, TV, radio sometimes, my smalltown Private University, magazines and the internet of things live. Or is that lie. Maybe thats living. See movie trailer. I must say Corbett with a lot of assistants at the ready are the SUNGLASSES.

          When it stops being entertainment we could have a shot.

        • Ok ok ok, MBP, I dont know what happened but when you start throw’ n around those big words I get lost.
          ENTROPY ? !! So I leave a link but the definition doesnt want to copy link for some reason. The deeper i went the less i got until ” The Entropy of Communication. Or ENTROPY! What a word. This was a Daisy Cutter Bomb. You need to be careful chucking those heavy hitters.
          You may want to not stir up the natives, especially the Casino erh…Bank worker. They dont wakey wakey well.
          Anecdotal side bar. When I voiced a concern for a patron’s gambling addiction I was asked to take a urine test the following day in HR. The patron was into a loan shark for $60k and had lost the $150k that use to be her house. The real house(casino administration) sent me a message. Dont rile the natives. Boomerangs cracky!!
          Communication Entropy, information theory…

          https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(information_theory)

        • Ok ok ok follow me here. Apply this to 911 and wham you see the high probability that the communicated message will be communicated about a low probability event, like the building falling. The communication is processed and accepted yet the event is rejected as improbable.
          Same with The Smothers Brothers. When the anti-war communication was finally accepted about the war which was a low probability in itself . The patriotic war message was rejected. When they got that communication through to the American audience the M.I.C. lost 100s of billions in contracts and the M.I. Informational Complex learned a lesson in low probability noise over powering the high probability message.
          There that solves every question about how we arrived at where we are today. The lock down gated internet replacing TV.
          Thank you may I be excused?

        • MBP.: thank you for the Tunisia, one of the favorites played all over town, great live.
          I had to go clean out some drawers too.( that is so funny)
          The XR is loaded with. Poppy Crum., Neo-life
          Information Entropy tie-ins.
          Virtual Reality=Anti-Reality. Lies likge it breathes.
          Now thats brilliant.
          I saw in the XR link the statement, the way products work there way from Darpa/Stanford into the general population. Very soft and deceptive. Innocent.

          390 comments, to say your comment was down below is like saying its in tomorrow its so far down the page. Where was i? Oh yeah, your link thats why I posted here, a person needs a sack lunch to go down page . Which reminds me to thank you again for Camille location for placing the Ad for hearing aides that spy on you, post.
          Darpa/ Stanford skill of ensnaring you into TECHNOCRACY, in the XR page under ‘Related Articles’ , the X-Reality box at the bottom of the wiki page to ‘History of X-Reality… From In a Seattle convention…making known funds were availible, “To develope and encourage creators to WORK the AR/MR/ VR/ 360 spectrum.

          In closing one last thank you for ENTROPY… find it in everything. Add life to your propaganda goy by Information ENTROPY. That not near being said but quoted, I submit..”I really can’t shut up when I have nothing of substance to say so here goes.”
          Oh contrar you genius . Enough for your viewing pleasure. Next

        • LAST ONE! MBP. Got to thank Camille. Two new words out of that technocratic propaganda. Two very powerfully charged words; AGENTCY & ENTROPY! They know how to craft a message around these very charged words to get their derisive superior intellect a spin. Yes you did. You may deflect the praise but you were the editor and publisher, using a slice from a second party. Paraphrasing the Science fiction author/ entrepreneur , YOU WERE THE. ENTROPY EDITOR . You are ENTROPY!got that right.
          Monet info very interesting, and im sorry too like a British fellow, for thinking you were going to post those too, way before you knew. Might’a got that right, who cares. We know technocracy when we see it

    • mbp,

      Efimov is not for launch break but for careful watching and contemplating. I put him in a class of essential videos, bringing essential knowledge.

      Two videos explaining how to control people: James’ How to herd your tax cattle (individual level) and Efimov’s How rule the world (society level).

      I understand Efimov stand on one world government (with this comes also idea of collectivism) that it is misdirection if you think that this is the biggest thing wrong on this world. There is much much more unfortunately.
      Looks to me holistic approach comes as a extremely difficult endeavor nowadays.

      Recently it came to me something not related, at first glance…

      They declared War on Fake News.
      Why didn’t they declare War for Truth?
      It’s better, stronger and affirmative massage.

      Also in my cursorily observations of war on fake word Truth doesn’t appear much.
      Like Truth should be put aside and lose its splendor, be relativised as ‘truth for whom’.
      Friend, wise guy, was ranting about journalists and their sloppy work, click-bait orientation and that they are generally not interested for….it hardly came out of his mouth… truth. I capitalized it for him, Truth

      • It’s a bit strange to film tutorials for intelligence, although topics covered are not something confidential and majority would say that sounds like conspiracy theory (rule the world), Russia is big he can’t go to every branch office, don’t know….I’m interested in content.

        I’m impressed how much content he put into one hour, really condensed, hardly to understand without foreknowledge.

        World view, the ultimate tool for control according to Efimov. This was so evident in some discussions I had here, some interlocutors could got things I tried to communicate, it was out of their domain because of world view.

        Efimov is really to the point about Truth, people should always be given the choice between two lies, never between lie and truth. Truth has to be hidden. Rephrased W.Casey.

  5. 911BLOGGER has a few recent, interesting stories
    http://911blogger.com/blog

    Well known researcher Kevin Ryan has some added information regarding Carbon Nanotubes in WTC Dust

    Shoestring, extremely well known for some of the most fascinating stories surrounding 9/11/01 has this article:
    The Strange Story of Daniel Lewin, the First Victim of the 9/11 Attacks

    • Thanks for mentioning this recent Daniel Lewin article HRS.
      For those who aren’t up on this man, he was allegedly flying on Flt 11. the aircraft that allegedly struck WTC 1.
      He was also allegedly killed by one of the alleged hijackers with a knife.

      It’s interesting that the article leaves out one of the most damning pieces of information concerning Lewin.

      Let’s start our ‘coincidence meter’ now and see if it goes off the charts.

      The year before 9/11 Lewin just happened to be photographed in front of two panels that looked remarkably like the twin towers.

      When you zoom in to the photograph you notice that he was wearing a new Swatch model watch. The model of the watch was the ‘Hijacker’ and the product line was called ‘Irony Big’.

      Now get this.
      The hour, minute and second hands were all at the 11 position.
      The date was set to 11 as well.

      Here is a link to the Swatch website where you can see the watch he was wearing:
      https://www.swatch.com/en_us/watches/ygs7003a-hijacker/

      Not enough coincidences?
      He was allegedly sitting in seat 9B on American Airlines Flt. 11.
      In the hexadecimal numbering system B = 11
      So he was sitting in seat 9-11.

  6. Hi everyone, James here. Just dropping a note to say I made it safe and sound to Mexico. Will NOT be checking emails or comments very much, though. Have fun!

    • Have a great vacation and conference, James!

    • Remember, when in Mexico, “Don’t drink the water.”
      uh-oh, what does that leave?

      Enjoy the esprit!

      • If I were James, I would only consume factory-sealed products that I pulled from the store shelf myself, and I would never take my eyes off of them.

      • Yes oh yes!
        I remember my bout of Montezuma’s Revenge from decades ago during my only trip to Mexico. 🙁
        Thought I was going to die.

        • Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE) for Montezuma’s Revenge
          (I use the NutriBiotic Brand.)

          GSE can help get rid of parasites in the body.
          People sometimes use it to disinfect river water.

          Here are a few anecdotes:
          Some years back, maybe 2011, my buddy Joe, of our Dallas 9/11 Truth Group, gave me a call as he was driving back to the U.S from deep Mexico. He told me that Montezuma paid him a visit, full of revenge. I told him to stop and get some GSE at a health food store when he could. He did. It remedied the condition.

          Often, for myself and for others, GSE has handled Salmonella poisoning (ya know…raw chicken type Salmonella where you throw up while sitting on the toilet). Many times within the same day things were set right.

          More than, or around two decades ago, I told my wife-at-the-time to take some GSE, about 20-30 drops in a small glass of water. She had food poisoning, likely Salmonella. She drank the glass. That night she had terrible cramps. She said that it felt like “Alien” (as in the movie) was crawling through her gut. Once she went to the toilet to relieve herself, everything was copacetic. She felt great.

          • Grapefruit seed extract should be in every household.

            It stops colds in their tracks.

            I even cured a cats UTI with it!

            You can buy a kilo for like $35 off of bulksupplementsdotcom.

  7. A Question-for-Corbett:

    After experiencing your second Anarchapulco (Soon anyhow) Do you think similar conferences would work in other parts of the world? and If so, what do you think it would take to get one going?

  8. -BUMP-
    (Japanese Transcripts)

  9. A word on money.

    True money is not the bills or notes and neither the coin or the bullion.

    It is your mind and your energy. This is evident as we ‘spend time’ and ‘pay attention’. We do this to what peaks our interest. Interest, is value accrued over time, which is our appreciation.

    This is accomplished by ‘paying respects’. ‘Spect’ refers to seeing and looking, ‘re’ meaning, again. We aren’t just glaring at people or things; we’re considering them, in our minds eye, over and over again.

    What else does the the word mean? It’s root, monēre, means auspiciousness. Those are the signs you ‘see’ in your mind from the events before you. Or perhaps, it’s from, moneres, meaning singular. Maybe it’s money(e) then? That singular eye our hindu brethren refer to as the third eye. It’s quite a curiously shaped part and ever so curled to point directly towards the visual cortex.

    We are the banks of energy and charge our investments with visionary power and gain interest. ‘Spending our time wisely’ will ensure our energy investments will be appreciated and gain value.

    Of course this money is of an entirely different currency than most think. Only because we’ve been duped into believing we need a currency exchange to happen from energy to notes. Not to mention, the exchange rate is deplorable.

    I always heard ‘health is wealth’ but you have to invest a little everyday and I learned it doesn’t really start payin’ out till you’re old. So it’s like a retirement fund.

    Point being, real money is priceless, incalculable value, until we say otherwise. Are the coffers deep? Because, when we run out we’ll be coffin deep. Stuck in a container, a cache’, by an undertaker that I will call, Cashier. Always taking our cash which is itself a little container. A little coffin for every unit of energy and time we spent.

    Let’s think beyond these markets of notes and bills that people use to control our minds and energy. Lets value ourselves much, much more.

    • Thank you, I will deposit it graciously into my memory bank.

      I agree, it would involve some amount of suffering.

      I like this word too, suffer.

      Su (under) fer (iron, meaning bearance). So, ‘bearing under’. Taken literally, ‘under iron’. This reminds me of weightlifting; you get stronger from weightlifting too. It hurts, it’s hard but you get stronger. There’s also the danger of getting too much in one dose just like too much pain in a person’s life prevents them from recovery.

      My solution is to take on an ascetic lifestyle to suffer in smaller doses to make onself stronger for the larger doses that one gets when one is not looking.

      I like to think of the, ‘bearing under’, like, ‘under-standing’ a load. Understanding, carries the load of responsibility. Understanding comes from knowledge and experience. Conscious is ‘with knowledge’, if you’re not, you’re unconscious.

      You could call it a great undertaking. And the individual is the undertaker, tasked to bury the debt. The debt is, being not ‘with knowledge’, or, ignorant.

      I’ll also point out, if you happen to come across those not ‘with knowledge’, as in, unconscious, but they’re still walking around feeding and making noises. We call that a zombie and the zombie apocalypse already occurred, the veil was lifted with the help of places like this Corbett Report.

      People are caught in a cycle of consuming regurgitate and, in turn regurgitating to others. Even us here, consuming Mr. Corbett’s regurgitate and he, in turn, consuming it from others.

      It is amazing to think about what you actually know. I never experienced most of which I think I know, it’s mostly epistemological. The undertaking is to get knowledge and experience, which I call, Wisdom, because thats the gold in the bank and the cure for zombification.

      • I know because I have debts and I’m relatively poor. I’m also still part zombie but I’m in the process of curing myself. Being a zombie is what caused all my problems. If I only I had been with knowledge sooner! Se la vie.

        Nevertheless, even debts can be appreciated and mined for new gold. Derivatives.

      Surprise: They were ISIS all along, even when the USA was arming them. Working together with Al Qaeda/ Al Nusra who got popular in the media as the white helmets with all of their staged videos.

      Note: The US seems to fight them, but before bombing starts of ISIS places, the USA sends helicopters to evacuate their ISIS fighters. Unknown to the pilots they are bombing the hostages and witnesses. Some of the training of ISIS and Al Queda takes place in the US by the CIA. They are there to keep the war going, to harvest poppies and to harvest organs.

      http://en.hubei.gov.cn/news/newslist/201804/t20180416_1275769.shtml

      Does 5G lower your resistance, due to the proven additional
      electrochemical stress that it puts on your body?

      Or maybe increase the mutation of the virus?
      Because GHz radio waves can cause mutations at
      certain frequencies and intensities (as shown in CIA documents).

      • 5G – Wuhan
        That is really worth making a mental note of.

  11. Question for Corbett, and of course everyone else

    Ever heard of InsigniaGate? It might be old news to some, but this was mind-blowing. Basically it was a data dump mainly by a man named Eliahi Priest.

    Website with Download of Data Dump: https://www.contactzero.org/

    Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmJXzgJwsOl4VCWTUY6u3hw/videos

    Must Watch Summary by Priest himself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVhr4g66FSM

    The problem is whether the InsigniaGate information is legit or not. First red flag is he is a Q supporter. Second red flag is he seems to be a bit crazy, as seen on some of the tabs on his website separate from the InsignisGate drop. Plus people seem to think it’s all a big psyop ( https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1137915021508263936.html ). But with the info he provides on his channel and the dump itself, it seems pretty darn legit.

    He covers something called the Five Star Trust which basically hands out an absurd amount of money to code-named individuals/organizations, enough to pay off the U.S. debt multiple times. He delves into drug trafficking, dirty politics, Assassinations, Phone calls of hits, and way more. Plus he seems to back a lot of it up. Tell me what you all think!

  12. The HighWire with Del Bigtree has a good video out right now. He is at Anarchapulco also.
    Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtrdPulxDtY&t=2313s and he covers the Coronavirus also.
    Isn’t it funny that our Military is handling the quarantine’s just like China’s is. That way the only info we will get will be what the government wants us to have.

    • Derick Broze talked about this Event 201. See the very top link on this Open Thread.

      • Browsing around the Internet’s is so much fun….

        The following link is a video discussing Event 201 provided by Spiro Skouras, who we know was at one point, a few years ago, Sibel Edmunds right-hand man.

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mx8xKcQMTRs&feature=youtu.be

        Does anybody know if Spiro is still at Newsbud? Searching for him at Newsbud, the date of the latest reference for Spiro was July 9, 2018.

        Searching this database I ran across an interview Spiro conducted with Brock West, who was then working as a video editor for Newsbud:

        https://www.newsbud.com/2016/11/15/behind-the-scenes-look-at-newsbuds-war-against-the-mainstream-propaganda-machine/

        In the interview, Brock mentions his plans for visiting Vietnam. It didn’t sound like he was planning for a long haul, which apparently it turned out to be.

        Looking at Newsbud today, it seems it’s focus has become very Turkey/Iran centric.

        So, what gives with Sibel (Princess Nayirah) Edmunds? After Sibel threw Vanessa Beeley and Eva Bartlett under the bus, and threw her support to the White Helmets in a manner directly akin to the talking points you might read in Foreign Affairs magazine, there has been no mention of this acclaimed former FBI agent, come whistle-blower, come online news chief, come author of fiction, literally.

        If James refuses to say a word about his former colleague/collaborator, can Brock at least, give us his honest take of his one time employer, Sibel?

        And Spiro! Spiro! Spiro! If you should happen to be reading this, tell us please what you know about the dear Princess, the real inside dope!

        Merci!

        • It appears you and I share similar morbid curiosities, Candlelight. Every now and then I take a peek at Newsbud and noticed months ago that Spiro disappeared. She moved to Turkey, even ran a brief series highlighting their lovely culture, cuisine, etc., like something you’d see on PBS.

          I laughed out loud when I watched one of her recent preview videos in which she’s wearing some pretty feminine head covering, and she bowed her head when she was done speaking – excruciatingly theatrical! What on earth was that all about?

          Anyway, watching the Broze video last Friday, that was the first I’d seen of Spiro since Newsbud. It looks like he’s now flying solo as well as a contributor over at Activist Post. I dunno, watching just one of his vids, I get the same sensational vibe that I got at Newsbud, but to each his own.

          bitchute.com/channel/spiro/

          By the way, I’ve been thoroughly enjoying reading your and Alexandre’s back-n-forth under the CIA newsletter. You both are such communication extraordinaires and have me ruminating on your thoughts throughout my days. Thank you!

          Just now, I’m about to watch the Smother’s Brothers link you posted. Love those guys! Last year, on Directv’s Audience channel, I watched a documentary on John Lennon and was surprised to learn that one (or was it both?) of those brothers hung out with Lennon and Yoko during their “bed-in” and that Tommy Smothers played acoustic guitar on “Give Peace a Chance”. Interesting trivia eh?

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3_0GqPvr4U

          • Just finished the video on the Smother’s Brothers Comedy Hour. I had no idea the extent of their comedic brilliance, their censorship, or their struggle with CBS; it was all very enlightening. I was born in 68 so I’m trying to recall how I came to see them on TV in the 70s. Must’ve been re-runs or guest appearances (?). Anyway, my appreciation for them is increased.

  13. I take this as authoritative…

    Note Boyle’s comments about the trustworthiness of the CDC, WHO and the Gates Foundation at the end of his interview. All coherent with the technocratic coup that James, et al. do a good job of illustrating.

    Have fun in Mexico, James!

  14. Cool. Cool. I love seeing this.

    • Haha! Sounds like something from Dr. Demento’s radio show; now there’s a name I haven’t thought of since God knows when.

  15. Thank you dooglio! That is a great reporteering. I was wondering.

  16. Ok then. I’ll get on the Saturday Night Music bandwagon this weekend.

    Back in the 80’s Ryuichi Sakamoto put out an album called Neo Geo. There are a couple songs that I listen to frequently on the net. I don’t know what the ladies are singing about, it’s in Japanese. The tunes are pretty and kind of hypnotizing. They are

    Neo Geo
    Okinawa song

    Maybe someone out there will also enjoy them.

    Glycyrrhizin, an active component of liquorice roots, and replication of SARS-associated coronavirus

    Licorice root has been known for its antiviral and antimicrobial properties for centuries and has been a mainstay in traditional Chinese medicine. https://draxe.com/nutrition/licorice-root/

    So with a healthy immune system and proper nutrition, a few cups of licorice tea or some sticks of black licorice candy could cure or prevent corona virus infection. But then Big Pharma can’t make money on pushing a dubious vaccine.

    And don’t forget about Garlic, one of the most powerful antivirals known to man.

    • Thanks Paul.
      Actually, almost every evening after dinner I snack on a few of my Panda brand licorice. I have the supplement licorice root also.
      Licorice can have other health benefits also, or help with a cough.

      Glycyrrhizin
      It is important to note that for some people, they can over do it.
      So, if an individual is taking licorice and feels “off”, then it might be wise to back off.

      • You’re absolutely correct. That’s why many licorice candies substitute anise because people tend to overdue sweets. Licorice is a powerful medicinal plant (that happens to taste great). Natural herbal medicine is far safer than pharmaceutical medicine, but like any medicine, it must be done intelligently and with information.

        By the way, here is Dr. Judy Mikovits (Molecular Biologist) interviewed on Ernest Hancock’s “Declare your Independence Show”. She gives a lot of background on coronavirus, and connects the dots with this and previous outbreaks like Ebola, Zika, etc. Her takeaway is that if you are healthy and your immune system is not compromised by vaccines and pharmaceuticals that there is little to worry about.

        • Paul,
          Here is an interesting anecdote about “Star Anise”.

          I worked in the Vitamin/Supplement section of a natural grocer for 3 years seeing over 100 people per day.

          An Indian fellow told me that he uses Star Anise and drops it in a cup to make a tea any time he felt a cold or illness coming on.
          He swore by it as a remedy to a quick recovery.

          Although I have Star Anise in my pantry, I haven’t really given it my personal test for an affliction.

          • I shall have to investigate Star Anise.

            My go to when I feel a bug coming on is a blend of Echinacea and Goldenseal (60/40% by mass) as an immune system booster and antimicrobial/antiviral. Knocks out the bugs without disrupting the gut biom.

            If I need to pull out the big guns I will mince up 3-4 large garlic cloves and a teaspoon of cayenne pepper, wash it down with water to which I add 3 grams of vitamin C, wrap up in a blanket and sweat like a pig for about 3 hours. Works every time.

  18. During the “Is There Light at the End of the Rabbit Hole? Derrick Broze with James Corbett” interview, the talk shifted to…

    … the future of Youtube and other alt-media news video channels…

    Here’s my $0.02

    Probably only when Youtube actually pulls the plug on the majority of quality alt-media channels such as James’ channel, will we see the alt-media get serious about finding alternative ways to stream/get their info out.

    But… you can bet your bottom dollar that just as Youtube was quickly gobbled up by Google, no matter what new winning alt-media method(s) of communication surface(s), and how well-intentioned they are, they will inevitably be gobbled up by some mainstream Goliath.

    Unfortunately it is the homeostasis of the internet.

    On Thursday February 13, researchers James Corbett and Derrick Broze sat down for their first face to face conversation on a wide range of topics including censorship, coronavirus, the endless rabbit hole, technocracy, researching tools, and much more.

  23. bryap,

    (By the way, it is appropriate protocol to always describe links in the comment section.)

    Here is the Global Times (THE Chinese Newspaper) article about the rumor of patient zero.

    …Wei Hongping, a research fellow at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and mentor of Huang, posted on his WeChat Moments that he recently called Huang and confirmed Huang was in good heath, the National Business Daily reported on Sunday.

    Shi Zhengli, a research fellow at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, said on Saturday evening, “I can promise that not a single person was infected at our institute, including graduate students. We have zero infection cases,” reported the Beijing News on Sunday.

    Another scientist from the institute, Chen Quanjiao, added, “The Wuhan Institute of Virology has no infections, and the patient zero did not come from us,” the Beijing News reported….

      • …to which I’ve paid ZERO attention until about an hour ago…

        You and me both. Recalling the swine flu flop and every flu season since, I’ve had little respect for this topic but I did watch HRS’ link Friday night of Broze’s update and spent this morning reading a few more articles. Curious and intrigued, I’ll ctrl+F this page to see who Romola is and what she’s saying.

      • Pearl thats lateral thinking. Rockefeller funded music no doubt. You got a Texas size sence a humor. I got a TV/HiFi that I play that music on constantly.

        • My daughter brought it to my attention yesterday, something her music appreciation teacher showed in class (he wasn’t a supporter of it, thank God). But as I was watching it, I was honestly waiting for the punchline, but no, they’re totally serious. Wow.

          • Pearl, this is certainly performance art. I cannot connect it to music but those sophisticated enough to know call it art. Rockefeller inside joke im believing. They were pushing it hard in 1975 cause there was money made available and you know how goofy I am I was a candidate… I almost jumped on the band wagon but truly believed it to be subversive and didnt.
            You got good instincts and if your kids share things with you , you got them there. They wonT be fooled by these cons that roll down so innocuousnessly from the Rockefeller think tanks. This is ridiculous high brow derision.

      • Hahaha! Bravo! Seriously…what’s remarkable there is Nola staying put for the duration! A trained cat! I had the honor of meeting a trained cat in a grocery store months ago; it stayed in the cart letting admirers stroke her long and lovely gray coat. Heaven!

        Nola reminded me of a true piano-playing cat named Nora (she has her own youtube channel). It’s the oddest, most adorable thing how she takes to the keys like catnip, purring and snuggling.

        I found the link to Romola’s interview with Cyrus Parsa which I started last night and will resume when I finish here. Only eleven minutes in and it was enough for me to remove my ipad from my bedroom for the night. NO MAS!

    • Your a good egg MBP. I got to know tomorrow what does ROTFLMOA mean ? I know im gonna go Duh. I got no reference. Bon noir La Editeur d’entropie.

  25. Just an observation…

    I am noticing during my job search that there are a number of jobs of teaching young kids in China English.

    Also, in the local Texas grade schools in the United States…they are teaching young kids Mandarin.

    Does this sound suspicious to you guys? Anyone else notice this trend?

  26. Alternative Media Supergroup Speaks Before Being Censored!

    Strange video. Or,rather strained video. lol

    Luke Rudkowski’s drill format seemed to trigger the “Marine” in James. I can’t say I’ve seen that performance before. It was also rather humorous how he snuck out of there.

    Speaking of censorship, where did the recently posted Anarchapulco interview with James and Derrick go/disappear to?

    Searching for it on Derrick’s website, theconsciousresistance, which I’ve never done before on Derrick’s website, it was really weird to see pulled up all the searches I’ve ever made on The Corbett Report website.

    Go figure?

    Anyway, I wanted to watch some highlights of it again, because it was pretty funny Derrick staring back at his camera man, twice, with wide “eyes-in-the-headlights” as James – if I may paraphrase – exclaimed he is not an intelligence operative! LOL

    me bad

    • …with wide “eyes-in-the-headlights” as James – if I may paraphrase – exclaimed he is not an intelligence operative! LOL

      I laughed at that too!

      I guess it wasn’t an actual post, but rather just an embedded video from Broze’s youtube page (same with Luke Rudkowski’s video). Here ya go:

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpINZPLsXlc

      • Ha ha, I guess you bad, too, Pearl!

        And, savvy! Thanks for being informative. “Embedded video”, never would have known.

        Can you perhaps explain, then, how my Corbett Report searches are also “embedded” on Derrick’s website?

        A manifestation of Firefox browser architecture?

        How much of a technology wizard might you be, Pearl?

        If you don’t know, no problem.

        Thanks

        And cooly,

        Glad I’m not alone. 🙂

        • Not much of wiz I’m afraid, but I did work behind-the-scenes of a blog a few years ago and learned some things.

          But as for Broze’s site, I had a hell of a time finding the blasted search option as I was looking for the video you wanted (wasn’t there but at youtube). Going back to see if it stored my search terms, I lost it again! (I give up.) Anyway, I’m betting your browser is storing the cookies. I’ve tweaked mine and use the add-ons suggested by the very thorough step-by-step instructions given at the following link (if I can do it, you surely can!). Running the basic “disk clean up” is also recommended about every week (if you’re using windows):

          https://www.privacytools.io/browsers/

          I’ll be interested to know if this solves your issue!

          • Thanks, pearl,

            I’ll check it out. But, I’m sort of a technophobe, and navigating through these things sets off question mark after question mark about if I even know what I’m doing, besides the question marks concerning “helpful” tools to promote ones privacy online…how do I know I won’t be placed in some “questionable” data base first?

            But, then again, like Ray Davies sings – “Paranoia will destroy ya”.

            If I follow through on any of the link’s suggestions, and I see some result, I’ll let you know.

            Thanks, again.

            PS: Kink’s ~ Destroyer – And it goes like this!

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSKKvnA47aU

            cheers 🙂

            • Wow! It’s been a few decades since I heard The Kinks – I love that one!

              And you’re right to be paranoid, because it all comes from a poisoned well. However, I do believe there is a great host of open source creators offering very helpful antidotes. At the very least, the add-on called “Cookie AutoDelete” will solve that annoying problem you mentioned.

              • Cookie Auto Delete, yes, I saw that. I’ll look into it.

                I, for one, though, I’m not overly concerned about all of the shenanigans – the cookies, the tracking, etc. I take it as a given. I take it as a given that

                e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g!

                we do online is being gathered, analyzed and stored, no matter how we may think we’re covering our tracks.

                Anyway, I just watched a video concerning the roll out of 5G, and what its true implications are for the future, with very thought provoking commentary on how every aspect of our lives, and I mean truly every aspect of our lives, are becoming Internet dependent. In 10 minutes, the video sums it all up. It’s not that it’s shocking for anyone on this board, as James could probably have written it himself, so, it’s nothing we haven’t heard already, in one way or another. Although, as the video mentions, the idea of there being already many patents for extreme high-tech systems in place is something I’ve never thought about.
                Also, along the lines of concern of Internet censorship that was expressed by the informal Alternative Media Supergroup at Anarchapulco of which James formed a part, the video talks about how cloud computing in the future will be its only architecture with the potential of enabling government complete control to lock the individual out of their own stuff, at any time and for any reason. Which brings to mind, in fact, one aspect of concern – the absolute danger, ultimately, of being dependent on digital currency, which is hinted at in the video. Listening to the founder of Anarchapulco, he’s a big believer in bitcoin, but, I’ve looked at it for awhile now as potentially being a godawful trap:

                https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=6&v=V7CQ4gny_zY&feature=emb_logo

              • Good Video on 5G and technocracy and more.
                Thanks candlelight.
                BUMP BUMP

              • That was a sobering, perfect length video to pass on to those not privy to technocracy.

                …no matter how we may think we’re covering our tracks.

                I agree completely. And my saying these open-source solutions were the antidote was too strong. I’m certainly not that naive nor optimistic. Rather they’re more like a sweet syrup to suppress the symptoms of nausea. They don’t make my internet presence blind to Big Brother, but perhaps they seriously frustrate the data vultures. My cookies disappear when I shut down my browser. Websites’ ads are blocked from my screen, and those owners who are nosey enough to track my mouse on their pages will not get cooperation from me. It’s a grim picture for sure, but I won’t resign myself entirely. Maybe they’re all techno-cebos, useless, lending a false sense of security. I honestly don’t know for sure…I wish MKey were here to shed some light on the matter.

                After I finally figured out why the search window wasn’t visible at Broze’s blog (I habitually downsize my window on the screen…when I extended just an inch, there it was!) and resumed to determine whether the site had saved my previous search result, it hadn’t. So there ya go: cookies deleted after each browsing session. That and a multitude of other internet annoyances are removed from my sight.

                MBP: Cooperative? God, I hope not. 🙂

    Song: Stealing Happy Hours

    • Hmm, never heard of 311. Listening to Stealing as I type. Thanks, cooly.

      Ha! Amazing pause! Still listening! Thought there was something wrong with the audio….

      Very cool, cooly, very cool.

        • Thanks General. I didn’t know that song. Enjoyed it.

        • General-

          You mean the song Down by 311? I wouldn’t know. But if it was a cover song, fucking brilliantly done.
          They are so good at what they do. When you hear them, you can’t mistake them for anyone else.
          By the way, the official video for that song is a keeper.
          I saw them in concert a few times back in the day. Good memories.

          • cooly

            Maybe coming to a venue near you.

            It’s funny reading people’s comments below the youtube videos of these guys. 30 years my juniors, they reminisce about the awesomeness of the 90’s like I would of the 60’s/70’s. Meanwhile, I think the newest band I liked enough to go see in concert was U2.

            • candlelight-

              Thanks for the tour date info.

              My concert-going days are well behind me at this point.
              The last one I went to, must have been like 15 years ago, was Dwight Yoakam. That was something else. The guy is so talented it’s fucking scary.

              Cheers

    US Says Latest Sanctions Have Finally Thwarted Russia-Germany NS2 Gas Pipeline
    https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/us-says-latest-sanctions-have-finally-thwarted-russia-germany-ns2-gas-pipeline

    EXCERPTS
    …Bloomberg reports the White House’s “top energy official said he’s confident that Russia won’t be able to complete the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline in the Baltic Sea — and signaled that the U.S. will press forward with its opposition to the project.”

    It was spearheaded by Russian giant Gazprom and five European energy companies, including French electricity and gas firm Engie SA and Royal Dutch, and the Swiss company Allseas Group SA, among others; however, primary pipeline layer Allseas pulled out of the project under pressure from US sanctions. Gazprom then said it would outfit its own ships to circumvent the sanctions after Allseas dropped out.

    U.S. Energy Secretary Dan Brouillette, however, said of Gazprom’s efforts, “they can’t,” while denying the Russian energy giant’s claim that it will only face a “short delay”.

    “It’s going to be a very long delay, because Russia doesn’t have the technology,” Brouillette said while speaking on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference over the weekend. “If they develop it, we’ll see what they do. But I don’t think it’s as easy as saying, well, we’re almost there, we’re just going to finish it.”

    Washington’s stance has put a significant awkward rift between it and its European ally Germany, after Berlin vowed it would see the project through while accusing the US of “interference” and “meddling” in Europe’s energy independence….

    #2 ~ Please copy and paste this phrase (with “”) into the SEARCH BAR.

    Make a mental note of what came up.

    #3 ~ Now please do a new search. Enter this phrase:
    coronavirus “ozone and ultraviolet light blood therapy”
    or
    coronavirus and “ozone and ultraviolet light blood therapy”

    • On #3, all I get is…

      …Get the latest information from the World Health Organization about coronavirus.
      WHO

      with the World Health Organization emblem.

      • Ditto Homey. Youtube coronavirus and dogs, hundreds. Any combination of dogs and OULT, hundreds. Any combination of OULT and coronavirus go to WHO.

      • Likewise, I got the same results as you, as did gbw. It’s interesting to note two things: 1. without the quotes, there are numerous results about ultraviolet therapy used with various diseases, except none about coronavirus. 2. That single result with the WHO emblem has the look of an official public announcement, with its emblem and special shading; also, it takes you straight to the WHO’s website.

        I guess nobody has thought to put the two together – coronavirus and uv therapy.

        WHO partners with Google to fight coronavirus misinformation

        EXCERPTS
        The World Health Organization is working with Google to ensure that people get facts from WHO first when they search for information about the new virus that recently emerged in China.

        Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told the opening of WHO’s executive board meeting on Monday that social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Tencent, and TikTok have also taken steps to limit the spread of misinformation and rumors about the virus and outbreak that first emerged in the Chinese city of Wuhan in late December and has now spread to 23 other countries.

        “To that end, we have worked with Google to make sure people searching for information about coronavirus see WHO information at the top of their search results,” he said…

        …Since the outbreak began, a number of misleading claims and hoaxes about the virus have circulated online. They include false conspiracy theories that the virus was created in a lab and that vaccines have already been manufactured, exaggerations about the number of sick and dead, and claims about bogus cures.

        On Sunday, WHO lamented that the outbreak and response have been accompanied “by a massive ‘infodemic’ – an overabundance of information, some accurate and some not – that makes it hard for people to find trustworthy sources and reliable guidance when they need it.”….

  31. Happenings on the transgender front:

    “On February 10th, Rob Hoogland, the Canadian father who was court ordered to remain silent regarding the court-allowed gender-transitioning treatments of his 14-year-old daughter, broke silence and did an interview. Shortly after the interview was posted, the woman who interviewed Mr. Hoogland was ordered by lawyers to remove the video and was summoned to court on February 13th.

    […]

    “Basically, the Canadian courts have forbidden the father of the “transitioning” daughter to speak publicly about what has happened and how his rights to protect his child were completely stripped. Yesterday, we received an e-mail from one of our Canadian readers who sent us a link to a video interview with the father that was done this week. Facebook and YouTube have apparently already removed the video, but it can still be watched at another website (see below)*. We urge you to watch this before it completely disappears. It will help you to understand the battle that Canadian parents are facing right now and how the Canadian courts are allowing the tragic abuse of Canadian children to take place.”

    • Pearl, Thanks so much for bringing up this topic.
      A few months ago, I was going to post a comment about an event in Texas, but it was so disgusting and so sad, I hated to put it on the message board.
      Here it is..

      Brain Rape and Sexual Mutilation of Children
      In Texas, there are twin 7 year old boys, James and Jude.
      Custody was shared between both divorced parents.
      The Mother (not the biological mother) of the boys is an M.D., a Pediatrician in the Dallas-Ft. Worth metroplex.

      Starting at around the age of two, the Mother started reading stories which were of the liberal “gender question” tint to James.
      James was targeted by the Mother.
      The Mother (Dr. Anne) starts dressing James in girl’s clothes when he is at her house, but James wears boy’s clothes at his Father’s home.
      At this time, the Mother demands to chemically and surgically change James into a girl.
      The saga gets more and more insane.

      Here is a July 2019 RT interview with Jeff Younger, the father of a boy assigned for sex change therapy.

        Texas jury rules in favor of chemical castration of 7-year-old boy whose mother wants to “transition” him into a girl… father forced to take “tolerance” classes
        https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-10-22-texas-jury-rules-in-favor-of-chemical-castration-7-year-old-boy.html

        EXCERPTS
        A jury in Dallas, Texas, has decided that a seven-year-old boy will be restricted from further seeing his loving biological father, and instead be placed into the sole custody of Dr. Anne Georgulas, a woman to whom the child is not even biologically related who’s planning to forcibly convert him into a “girl” using puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.

        In a shocking 11-1 decision, Texas jurors decided that Jeffrey Younger, the father of seven-year-old James, will not be granted his request for Sole Managing Conservatorship over both James and his twin brother, Jude. Instead, they decided to grant that Sole Managing Conservatorship to Dr. Georgulas, whom we’ve previously reported appears to be suffering from a mental disease known as Munchausen syndrome by proxy.

        In earlier coverage of this ongoing case, Natural News explained how Dr. Georgulas has been forcing young James to live as a “transgender female” against his will, which James’ father, Jeffrey, had tried to protect him from by seeking a legal remedy to have the boy permanently removed from her custody. But instead of recognizing that James is being abused by his fake mother and siding with the boy’s biological father, the Texas jury decided to side with Dr. Georgulas.

        Besides losing custody of his two sons, Jeffrey is also reportedly being forced by the jury to attend “tolerance” classes that aim to brainwash him into accepting transgenderism as normal, against his religious and moral views. This could be a counter-case in and of itself, as the jury’s ruling violates Jeffrey’s God-given and constitutionally protected right to freedom of religion….

        On the “Frequently Asked Questions” webpage…
        “Dr. Anne Pediatrics performs circumcisions. Many families prefer that the procedure be done in the hospital.”

        On the website’s Blog, Dr. Anne has this article
        “Should My Child Have a Behavioral Consultation?”

        I pity the child and parents who have a Behavioral Consultation with Dr. Anne.

      • Natural News says she “appears to be suffering from a mental disease known as Munchausen syndrome by proxy.”

        And she’s a pediatrician. And a Texas jury ruled in her favor?! I don’t know jack about family court and how all that works, but it’s situations like this that pull me in the direction toward voting, for conservative judges who would hopefully recognize the glaring insanity and throw out such verdicts.

        Absolutely heartbreaking.

        Last year, I watched a documentary on RT about sex-change regret. There is a movement and they need all the help, compassion, support and recognition they can get. One gentleman in the film is Walt Heyer:

        “Heyer is the founder of Sex Change Regret and is reportedly hearing from many more people who now feel as he does.”

        “We get letters from parents or the transgenders themselves asking for help, after they’ve lived the life like I did for five, six, 15, 18, 20, all the way up to 30 years. And they are saying ‘Walt, can you help me de-transition. This was the biggest mistake of my life.'”

        “He recently helped a schoolteacher, a pharmacist, and his good friend Jamie Shupe, the first man to be legally recognized in the United States as ‘non-binary.'”

        “‘I think it’s important for us to realize that there is nothing good about affirming a young boy at four years old like my grandma did me,’ he said.”

        “Heyer’s grandmother put him a purple chiffon dress and told him how wonderful he looked, which confused him. Children should not be sent those kinds of messages because it communicates that there is something wrong with them, Heyer said.”

        “That is child abuse,” he asserted. “We need to be calling it what it is. It’s not affirming a child. It’s causing them to be depressed and anxious about who they are.”

        “The only reason I am able to speak to you today is because after 46 years dealing with this issue, I was able to de-transition in 1990 after I had psychotherapy, the very same psychotherapy [transgender activists] are trying to prevent people from having. Why? Because they don’t want them to de-transition.”

        “It’s painful to get these emails from people whose lives have been totally torn apart.”

        • “There is a movement…”

          Wrong word, again. That makes ’em sound like #metoo or blacklives; yikes. Maybe more like a politically inconvenient, silent exodus? Whatever, but their numbers are sure to increase in the next decades given these growth-stunting, life-altering experiments enforced on emotionally manipulated children.

    • Mr. Hoogland’s face says a lot at the beginning of this video.

      I live in a very gender bending state in the U.S. and I’m totally ignorant about whats going on in the schools these days.

      Thanks for posting.

        Yes, I thought so too!

      • I was very impressed by him as well. Never heard of either of them before I watched the interview. At first I figured she was secular, but then…Oh well, this fight is bigger than all that.

      • Speaking of Kinsey, the source of the links I posted was the first place I learned about his experiments way back when, about the time that movie starring Liam Neeson was released. My bias aside, they’re doing good work exposing such issues.

        • Looking just now so you don’t have to (the christianease can get heavy depending on one’s threshold), they favorably refer to the work of Judith Reisman as well as carry a film called “The Kinsey Syndrome”. He was one sick and evil bastard.

  33. The dumbing down of the masses.
    The MSM sure ain’t helping.

    Has anyone else noticed how more and more difficult it is to read news stories from the MSM at their websites?

    The majority of news stories are now in video form rather than electronic type/words.
    Is this because the public is getting more and more illiterate or because
    the MSM is getting more and more lazy?

    You’d think they would offer an option to either read the news story or view it on video, but no, there is no option.

    • HRS, thanks for posting Derrick’s finally-released 5G documentary, which he mentioned in his interview with Corbett. As I scrolled for hours and hours through this massive comment section, I was hoping someone would mention this doc. Trust HRS to do the honors! Have you watched it yet? I haven’t seen any other show on this subject that’s as well-organized, as comprehensive, as interesting and as solution-oriented (all in the space of 96 minutes) as is Derrick’s doc. Out of five stars, he gets ten.

  38. Military World Games
    Wuhan 2019

    Wuhan is the capital of Hubei province.

    Starting October 18, 2019 and ending October 27th,
    The 7th Military World Games was the first international military multi-sport event to be held in China and also it was the largest military sports event ever to be held in China, with nearly 10,000 athletes from over 100 countries competed in 27 sports. (via Wikipedia)

    Here is the “Opening ceremony of 2019 Military World Games in Wuhan, China” with footage of Wuhan.
    (long video…I just watched short parts…around 158:00 is the U.N. tribute.)
    https://youtu.be/gCdAY-AOG-o
    This “New China TV” GooTube Channel also has the Closing Ceremony.

    • Jennifer Zeng (whose Twitter is repeatedly mentioned at the top of this “Open Thread” under the COVID-19 – Coronavirus topic, had an interesting article on her blog.

      Wuhan Customs Holds 30 Days Countdown to Military Games and Emergency Response Drill at Ports
      Document is dated September 18, 2019
      https://www.jenniferzengblog.com/home/2020/2/20/wuhan-customs-holds-30-days-countdown-to-military-games-and-emergency-response-drill-at-ports-30
      (My note: Sometimes translations don’t convey the original intent or meaning, so “coronavirus” may mean something similar to SARS which is a coronavirus.)

      EXCERPTS
      …With the Military Game opening within 30 days, the joint executive committee of the Wuhan Customs and Military Games Commission held this emergency response drill at the Wuhan Tianhe Airport, by the theme of “Safeguarding the Customs and Ensuring the Security of the Military Games.” The purpose of this drill was to enhance risk prevention at the ports, to increase the effectiveness of portal inspections, and to further strengthen the ability of Wuhan Custom to react to urgent incidents, especially in areas of public health and possible nuclear radiation overshoots.

      Emphasizing on “practical operation and practical results in practical events,” the drill was performed as if it was real, simulating an actual case of the Novel Coronavirus infection as recently discovered in the Wuhan airport. The drill practice involved epidemiological investigation, medical screening, temporary quarantine zone setting, isolation detention, case transfer, sanitary treatment, and other crucial risk management steps. Moreover, the drill also carefully simulated a recent discovery of baggage with overshooting nuclear radiation.

      Wu Yang, director of the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Department of the Hubei Disease Control and Prevention Center of Hubei, said that the customs, as the forefront of the prevention and control of infectious diseases, has become the first guardian of the country’s security…

      …The customs has strengthened cooperation with the provincial Health Commission and the Wuhan Institute of Virology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and established mechanisms for notifying the epidemic, transferring cases, and cooperating on key infectious diseases….

    • No. This is a beautiful example of mass voluntarism, Chinese style. Nothing to fear, alexandre.

      Only, when you go out tonight to observe the heavens above, to quiet your mind, to contemplate the universe, to seek solace, and as the stars and the man-made satellites twinkle in the night, try to remember, it’s only temporary.

      cheers 🙂

      • Oh, man, you crack up, my brother!

        Oh, shit, are we allowed to say “my brother”? Actually, I never saw that go down, to tell you the troot.

        Well. you know what? Get ready. Cause I’m feelin’ cocked and loaded tonight! …..Just had to let my dog out – dog didn’t eat a came home tonight and my damned…never mind….I’m confused.

        Anywho, I don’t even know where to start, alexandre. I really don’t.

        Should we start with the most unusual phrase I ever heard? Man. C’mon man. Did you hear that really funny phrase that James came out with in that interview with that kid? You know, that super clean cut young fella James did the interview with , with that terribly disgusting grayish stucco background?
        Ha ha, I don’t mean to use up my 500 freaking words on this shit, but, did you hear what James said?….

        OMG!

        “Mouth-hole”

        Jesus effing C!

        Alright. Enough.

        Listen, listen…..

        Forget the above. I’m just kidding around.

        But, on a serious matter, I was taken aback, myself, watching these insane Chinese hosted world military
        whatever. WTF was that!

        Well, in a way, thank god these people are deferring to the UN. You have to wonder, what if this freaking production was totally rogue???? Weees in trouble!!!!

        Shit. It wouldn’t be the UN. It would have to be god himself! to help us.!

        Anyway….

        Sorry it was raining last night. When I wrote what I wrote, I actually knew that, weather-wise. Yes. I actually scoped out your neck of the woods wondering if you were having a starry night, or not. But, since what I was communicating was conceptual, it really wasn’t an issue. Though, it would have been nice 🙂

        I don’t know at the moment what else to say, cause, energy-wise I’m fading…. I shall return! just like Arnold —– “I’ll be back”… thud

        Cheerio!

    • alexandre, I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT! Your words that had gbw in stitches. I’m surprised I’m able to type this. For at least five minutes I was unable to catch my breath. I was so weak, literally, that I could not sit up straight in my chair. Seriously. YOU ARE HYSTERICAL!!!!!

      When I first read your reactions to the WMG, I wondered what all the fuss was about.

      But now that I’m 30 minutes into watching the military men and women marching around the stadium and I’ve gone back to reread what you wrote, I’m convulsed with sobbing, agonizing, rib-wracking, torturous laughter.

      NOW I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN, MY BRAZIL BROTHER! AND NOW I SEE WHAT GBW MEANT.

      A few initial impressions of the first half-hour:
      — Each of the women holding up the names of the countries looks like she was spit out of a printer that produces multiple copies of the exact same image. You see how all of their heads are turned at an identical angle? And their smiles look, as you say, “frozen” onto their faces. And not at all sincere. I mean, they must have cloned the same woman 100 times, right?
      — Why are these women wearing bouncing stained-glass lampshades for skirts, I wonder?
      — What is that crazy blue-and-white shark-costumed mascot doing cheering the troops from the sidelines? That friendly “Jaws” makes the jingoistic feel to the event all the more bizarre.
      — Why did the audience roar their approval when the French contingent strode by? (By comparison, there was pin-drop- silence when the US forces strode grimly past the crowd.)
      — My emotions are swinging back and forth between abhorring what the programmed populace of every nation ALLOW their “overlords” to get away with (namely, exploiting young, innocent citizens and conditioning them to hate and kill like innocents in other countries) and, well, I have to admit, feeling empathy for every one marching by, because they’re all, to a greater or lesser degree, caught in a web of deception. Hard to explain my mixed sentiments.

      It’s probably SNIP time — and time to return to the agony of watching the opening and closing ceremonies and of laughing so helplessly at alexandre’s reaction that I’m in serious pain. HELP!!

      • I applaud and ditto your every sincere word, alexandre. I’m sure everyone here does.

        Though I was brought up by moral, kind, hard-working, well-educated parents, I wasn’t taught to question the military. Besides, my father’s “service” as a WWII bomber navigator was a source of pride to his family. It never occurred to me to think of the victims of the Army Air Corp’s bomb drops.

        I wasn’t a military brat, but I may as well have been. The Navy submarine base on the Thames River was close to our house, and we knew some of the officers. So was General Dynamics’ Electric Boat — and we knew some of the managers. So was the Coast Guard Academy — and we knew some of the cadets. The military, we had no reason NOT to believe, was our protector, our defender from outsiders’ aggression.

        Despite having awakened over the past decade from the fantasy that you, alexandre, have always seen through, I still pity, rather than loathe, each young man and woman who joins the military. They can’t help that they’ve been fooled. And if they’re not fooled, not blind, well, they have no other options, as they see it. They’re doing the best they know at the moment.

        Remember Pat Tillman? He was a bright guy, and super sincere and “patriotic.” Signing up after 9/11 was his highest tribute to his fellow Americans and to his then ill-formed concept of justice. He had no idea that something was rotten in the state of Denmark . . . until he saw it with his own eyes. Then, because he was a popular, charismatic public figure, he paid dearly for his newfound knowledge — with his life. Would that he had lived to tell the truth (about whatever corruption he discovered and was silenced for) to his buddies and to the world.

        I don’t blame you for being shocked and dismayed when you learned that the world in general respects, depends upon, and even idolizes the military. Thank you for sharing your rightful horror of this murder machine — and for making a deep impression on me, through your serious-but-humorous reaction to the ritual of the WMG in Wuhan.

    Josh Sigurdson
    James Corbett On The FALL Of Empires & The Coming Cashless Society!

    https://youtu.be/dBKvVtNFMYU

    DESCRIPTION
    Josh Sigurdson talks with James Corbett of The Corbett Report about the utilization of fear by the state in order to bring the populace to heel.
    It appears this method of fear very well could be turning around on the state as we see signs of fracturing in the fabric of the global order. Could the empire be about to fall like we saw in ancient Rome?
    James also talks about the very clear and important differences between the centrally planned cashless society and the rise of decentralized properly fundamentally useful cryptocurrencies and blockchain infrastructure technology. Far too often people conflate one of the solutions with the problem and it perpetuates the problem.

    We appreciate talking with James Corbett. He is quite likely the most informative channel on YouTube.

    • Josh and James discussed
      Bitcoin – Decentralized Currency

      By the way, James Corbett does still take Bitcoin, although it is not listed on the website.
      Just email him, and he will give you details on where to send it.

      I am disappointed about the current hype on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
      A few years back, it looked like a great tool to decentralize exchange between people.
      Now, almost all the hype is about speculation on price increases, and buying and selling like a commodity or currency.
      Personally, I have no problem with speculating.
      But the soul of Bitcoin was its decentralization aspect.

      2019 TAX Year – U.S. Tax Code changes
      EXCERPT
      The IRS added a new question to the Schedule 1 form about your dealings with cryptocurrency.
      It asks:
      “At any time during 2019, did you receive, sell, send, exchange or otherwise acquire any financial interest in any virtual currency?”

  40. Just minutes into Josh Sigurdson’s talk with Corbett, I had to pause to acknowledge the good advice on channeling fear. On a related note, Statist Pearl made a brief appearance recently, and I’m grateful to anyone who resisted what must’ve been an incredible urge to talk some sense into me:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0GW0Vnr9Yc

    • Haha. So you, the poster, is the statist? Not like your twin? Or is this a split personality thing?

      That clip made me smile remembering that silly movie.

      On the fear note, I am glad I can say that anyone who can read this reply has already controlled some of their response to fear. I meet people all the time who describe researching about crimes against humanity as, ‘too much’, ‘too depressing’. That’s a fear response in my opinion.

      Like alluded to in the video by Mr. Corbett, the fear response is learned. Also, I would say, that because its emotional primacy, it all comes down to dying.

      This is where I think the spiritual people have a leg up. I would say most spiritual practices teach some kind of life after death and if you got the faith, you are con fidel.

      I like to look at ‘life after death’ rationally. A) There’s an afterlife and I’m able to recall my previous life. B) There is nothing after death, I’m just discarded or recycled.

      Well, If its ‘A’, I better act accordingly. For me it’s not acting like a coward. That would really bum me out watching myself act like a milk-toast on Godtube. If it’s ‘B’, then it doesn’t matter how I act. But, since I have no proof of either scenario I’ll assume ‘A’ since that’s the only one that has any requirements for me to succeed in my expectations. If it’s ‘B’ I can still assume ‘A’ and it still doesn’t matter.

      One could argue that if you leaned either way the concept of dying could be detached from the fear response. I would think a hardcore Nihilist wouldn’t fear death. How could they?

      But then, there is a ‘C’, now that I’m writing, it’s the scenario where you haven’t thought about scenarios; where you are totally unsure about anything but are also not making any efforts to figure anything out. Living in the unknown. Those people are afraid.

      Another benefit to knowledge.

      • Well, I am a Gemini, so…

        Long story short, going on five years ago I announced to my husband after much seeking, finding, reading and watching, that I could no longer participate in the rest of the family’s protestant-flavored religion (this is not to say I abandoned my faith, quite the contrary – the scales fell from my eyes!). Soon thereafter, I had a painful motivator to push me onward and upward from settling down at this fellowship which had enlightened me as to the history and philosophy of Protestantism (I’ll forever be grateful to them). Around that time, a book had been recommended to me at a Christmas party called “Classified Woman” by Sibel Edmonds which I read in 2 days. I then found Ms. Edmonds blog “Boiling Frogs Post”, eagerly subscribed and began to learn some things there. It was through her round-table discussions that I found James Corbett and The Corbett Report (this was when Trump was racing against Ted Cruz et al for President). Mostly going between these two blogs but also gravitating toward Libertarian blogs, bit by bit I was deconstructing decades of right-wing, evangelical thinking and doing. But not quite there yet as I still believed Trump was an outside, underdog candidate and so voted for him thereby protecting us all from Hillary. A few months into his presidency, I realized he was a puppet after all. Meanwhile life with my family has changed as well and become even more isolated since I no longer worship and pray with them, I no longer relate politically. Don’t get me wrong, we all get along quite well, but there is an air of tension. No matter that I don’t try to beat them over the head with my new beliefs (I keep much of it to myself, yielding infrequent bursts of important information as situations arise), but they have little interest. I can’t blame them since I was one of them, but I am sad that there isn’t a true desire to seek and find for themselves. Before Christmas, the satellite receiver linked to my TV in my bedroom gave up the ghost. Seeing this as the next thing to further detox me from programming, I still haven’t replaced the box; I won’t lie – the temptation is there …the next season of “Better Call Saul” is days away!!. I didn’t vote in last fall’s local elections (that was a first for me). Going to the library just the other day, the lawn was staked with a collage of election posters and early voting for something is going on. It was kind of surreal to see it and not be the least bit curious.

        Anyway, still learning a lot, still detoxing and taking baby steps.

        • Pearl,

          First, thank you for the Lennon/give peace a chance video. It made me cry.

          Conspiracy theories don’t come between me and my family at all. I have long since bothered to discuss any of it with any of them, not my wife, not my son and not my daughter. In fact, it’s a joke, literally. Recently, I met my daughter’s new beau at Thanksgiving, and I couldn’t help express my thoughts on American Empire, etc., etc, the whole war machine thing. No talk on 9/11, etc. I wasn’t about to get into that. Later on, my daughter was kinda joking about how I was giving her boyfriend a little bit of the business, and she and I had a good laugh when I said, oh, he (her boyfriend) didn’t even get the tip of the iceberg!

          But, that’s just the way it goes. Even my closest friends do not agree with me. They simply cannot accept the idea that 9/11 was perpetrated by our own government. A whole evening trying to explain my point of view – and in the end, I get this response – bullshit. So, on some fronts, you just can’t win. I still love my friends and still love my family. And, reciprocally, they don’t hold it against me, either – even if they think I’m a bit nuts.

          So be it. It is what it is.

          Thanks, again, though, for that video. In my book, you got it down, right. 🙂

          • By the way, Pearl, you recently introduced this – I don’t know what to call it – phenomenon, I guess, of the transgender issue.

            Not long ago, a fellow I know, someone I’ve known long before he got married and had kids, confided in me that his teenage daughter transitioned. At the time, his daughter was going in for breast reduction surgery. So, it’s the whole nine yards.

            I can tell you, it has not been easy for him. But, he, himself, is an exceptionally decent human being, and is supportive of his child, and wants only for his child to be happy in life, irrespective of what’s been going on. And, yet, from what he’s told me, the real difficulty is, and has always been, is his child’s innate personality. Very, very difficult. Very hard to please.

            This father has been going through an amazing amount of anguish, but, somehow, he’s found the strength to cope. I think, what it is, in the end, as heart rending as it is, there really is no other choice but to cope. The lesson this father is experiencing, I truly believe, is his realizing to accept life on life’s terms, and not his own.

        • Each one of your responses touched and lightened my heart. Thank you.

          MBP, your song was a soothing balm. It is a sunny day, literally and figurative!

          Alexandre, like a magic mirror indeed! Yes, we are in this together. Reading here each and every day keeps me sane and your many insights mean more to me than you can possibly know. In return for your thoughtful empathy, please accept my meager token of what I hope will be the answer to some of life’s greatest mysteries: ROTFLMAO = rolling on the floor laughing my ass off!

          Candlelight, healthy and wise you are; words to live by. I’m unloading the useless baggage of expectations now. I’m so sorry for your friend. He’s so fortunate to be able to confide in you.

          For you all:

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODIvONHPqpk

          • Wow Pearl! That is an amazing way to kick Saturday off. What a exceptional musical way to find some relief. ROTGLMAO, who could a thunk it? Thanks.

          • What a compliment! Don’t I wish!! I just watched her at all the points you suggested, and thoroughly enjoyed her witty interaction with the audience – she’s delightful! You gifted me with another new, listening experience.

            Her doll anecdote reminded me of when my older sister got hold of a pair of scissors and cut not my doll’s hair, but my own (I think she was trying to help get the purple bubble gum out of my hair). Documenting that disaster is a pre-kindergarten school picture of me with red-rimmed watery eyes (I was dreadfully shy and afraid) and diagonal bangs. Not a happy camper and every bit pitiful.

        • I appreciate your input, Wylie. Thank you.

          Unfortunately, it’s more complicated than protesting certain things here n’ there. It would be so nice to just switch denominations (calvinism or arminianism or…?), but the unrest I came up against was more systemic than that, and I finally learned why: Neo-platonists Martin Luther and John Calvin plainly state all throughout their writings that man is wicked and depraved, even after being “born again”. Man can’t do anything to please God. Ever. To them, born again only means the ability to now recognize your wormhood. According to authentic Orthodox Protestantism, true faith is dying to self and letting Jesus do it all through you. Good luck figuring out if it’s you doing works (aka “filthy rags before God) or Jesus doing it. It’s paralyzing misery.

          [S]how me heartfelt love and encourage me on my journey of truth seeking, of enlightenment

          I agree totally. That’s the way it should be.

          • Why is it important to have figured out which it is, you or Jesus, doing works? What is drawing you into that confounding misery of needing to know?

            I know! The way you put it, it seems so obvious! What can I say? I unwittingly left my first love through the drip, drip, drip of subtle, disingenuous doctrines via church, sermons, books and bible studies. Hindsight is 20/20.

            The heart of your comment mirrors mine. From what I know, there is no law against love.

  41. A bit of prose on a name I appreciate.

    Alexander, protector of man, a shield, a breastplate, shining bright with Love; this love is the armor.

    Though, not the amorous kind of love only for this or that. It is for all; the totality that leaves you in awe, mouth agape. Known also as Agapē, it is the embrace of Sophia, in her divine wisdom, the knowledge and understanding of everything.

    It is the perfect armor; nothing can off-end something so steady; nothing can sway it as it’s so even keeled. Does it complain to take nicks and dings? Never. Marring only serves to justify it.

    It is not the sum of others actions. It is not determined by them; it is the de-terminator.

    Let this divine providence be thy ward and shine it, protectively, over any and all, from the darkness of ignorance.

    “Press For Truth’s” Dan Dicks and Richard Gage
    NEW 911 Report By UAF DESTROYS Official Narrative On Collapse Of Building 7!!!

    Video published February 19, 2020
    https://youtu.be/27UXE6hMle4

    DESCRIPTION
    In this video Dan Dicks of Press For Truth interviews Richard Gage of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth about their partnership with the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) in releasing the draft report of a four-year computer modeling study of WTC 7’s collapse conducted by researchers in the university’s Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. The UAF WTC 7 report concludes that the collapse of WTC 7 on 9/11 was caused not by fire but rather by the near-simultaneous failure of every column in the building.

  43. Stock Market Humor – “Mysteriously” ignorant pundit Brian Sozzi

    As many Corbett Report members are well aware…
    The stock market’s rising stock prices are not based on fundamentals and company profits.
    e.g. More than 30% of companies have debt ratings next to junk.
    Super fueled by the Fed’s “Not QE” in September, almost weekly stocks have climbed to new records.

    Thursday, February 20th, some of the stock indexes (Dow, S&P) dropped a small percentage.

    EXCERPTS

    Thursday’s mysterious selloff in the markets has some on Wall Street beginning to wonder if the next move is lower…way lower.

    The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down close to 300 points by early afternoon trading.
    But how it got to that point has traders mildly concerned.
    After a respectable open where bellwether Apple traded in the green momentarily, the Dow plunged to a session low of roughly down 388 points. The index rebounded by noon, but not a whole heck of a lot.

    Meanwhile, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite were down more than 1% by early afternoon. Selloffs could be seen in a good number of the momentum stocks that have powered the month’s long market melt-up. Advanced Micro Devices fell 4%. Tesla shed 4%. Microsoft lost 3%.

    The profit-taking came despite big deal news that theoretically, should have spurred interest in buying stocks. Morgan Stanley said it will plunk down $13 billion of its own stock to buy online brokerage outfit E-Trade. L Brands unloaded its struggling Victoria’s Secret brand to private equity shop Sycamore Partners for $525 million in cash.

    SunTrust Chief Markets Strategist Keith Lerner says it has been hard to pinpoint the exact reason for the selloff today. But he notes a part of it may be technical selling related.

    Other experts tell Yahoo Finance small factors may be beginning to weigh on the collective minds of investors….

    • Thanks Dave. Interesting pdf.
      With the state of economies around the world right now, one would think that bankers would be more focused on how to better the economy.
      I guess they are hell bent on prepping for the big global economy-drought, so they can offer another solution because their first currency ‘solution’ did not work out so well.

    • I like how they say, “ Technology could solve some issues…”

      But human behaviour needs to change: Technology can cut emissions in energy and transport but behaviour change in food (less or no meat), travel (public transport and trains vs. flights) and consumption (re-use, repair, live with less, local) is also vital.”

      Essentially, according to Bank of America, we need to all sacrifice for the greater good—tighten our belts. Pretty scary language all this climate change propaganda is.

    with blistered hands,
    wail of their travail.

    To the Metal Rat,
    it’s cousin the bat.
    Let the music play.
    Sacrifice, away…

    Oh bet! Bet you will enjoy this. Django!

  46. Wakey Wakey time to wake up now. Dont frown. It will not be ok.

    Look at the faces of the people in this book store. Observing the shit Sandwich these people are consuming ( the information they are hearing for the first time) may explain the look on all their faces. I went through much the same reaction to Wakening Up to a post truth world. There is no way to avoid the uncomfortable feelings from learning how you have been lied too and the many American Betrayals you are finding out about. Reality is smacking these people in the face.

    https://youtu.be/fUiRtFRzbxQ

    West needs to follow that book up with one on China & technocracy. Which makes me wonder if the Russia bashing is the green light here.

    • Oh crap got the wrong one again here is Diana West and the bookstore full of people looking like their dog just died. They age, expression says it all.
      Thank you Alex for catching that. I think it was Pearl, when you wake up it hurts and nobody will share the pain.

      • Alex, phase canceling, information entropy. They have been at this game a long time. You know who they are. The Big they. You got it about the ISMs. Mauler is coherent. You are not out of phase at all. Think of where the structure of power resides and is coherent and consistent through the ages. Who could be behind the throne directing the murder of 10 million people? Quigley spelled it out with an incredible amount of statistics of money spent and lives lost. Go down the list of conflicts and the number of people, real people, individual people each and every one, that have been statistics of wars since Waterloo. You got to wonder the kind of world we would have had , had 60-100 million individual people had not been destroyed by the conflicts. This should drive anyone mad to wonder if the big They, may know something that we mortals dont know.
        Do You know the word entropy? How many ways it can be understood not alone how many ways we can apply it to new uses. Its maddening to be a native speaker and not know half of the words and their latent power that those words possess. That is entropy and the Big They know damn well how to extract every bit of energy from words . That is through the Poppy Crum ears!
        We may be aware but we are woefully unprepared to counter such coherent organization. They have no entropy, no loss of energy or phase cancellation.
        We all should be in bad moods on discovering this. They are individuals and until we deal with each one we will never achieve what they have accomplished. Layer on layer has to be pealed back to expose the seed from where it all originates. It may not even exist, wouldn’t that be a terrible irony. That might just as well be the case. It all seems possible. Isn’t that what you are saying. Infinite veriables, infinite jest.

        • Alex and MBP , great insights and observation. They lead me to a reductionism to grasp the big picture. By comparing Jacobson books and lectures to West’s books and lectures something jumps out at me .
          The gatekeeping from two discreet angles.
          One (Annie) towing the company line while promoting or protecting the company message, gatekeeping through revealing factoids, leaks and posturing away from the real goings on.
          Two , (West) revisionist, newly released archives reveal new information on American betrayal in a very narrow focal point. Driven in a post truth way by as you stated a seasoned Washington mockingbirdist columnist. Historicalism. Real truth about the ant but completely missing the elephant in the room.
          Given the revolulations of Comies at the top, Norman Dodos committee report on unAmerican activities becomes more relevant by the day. The RIIA, and Rockefeller Trilateral Commission moved into the Asia arena and set up shop in 1920s-30 and the gate keepers keep all scrutiny away. Technocracy rinsing over multi-generational clan control. The magnifying glass , is focused away from the facts while the misdirection focuses it elsewhere. This is a good example of how its done. Milner round table control of Intelligence agency, control of the Media and ways that information is controlled and focused.
          Stanford and Hoover document grab during the 1918-1923. Manchuria and Russia. Japan and RUssia , RIIA , Trilateral . Capitalist setting Germany up for the fall in 1933-43. Stalin, Lenin, Trotsky, Mao. Chi Sheik…Rockefeller all roads lead to China, Technocracy. Quietly creeping Dogma.

        • Not to mention the El-duobley effects origin. The idea of enslavement through monetary controls is poignant . I have hit a lick ( unlike the N.O.La. venacular of theft) and made some money in the past and I was always aware that I would be free for awhile. Free from that enslavement.

          Humane nature and traits that get transfers from culture to culture. You know Oklahoma is the repository of the civilized tribes that where enslaved by the new European culture. The only uncivilized tribe where the Osage. They were salve traders . And international traders according to monks reports of the early 1500s. Makes you wonder what does civilized mean. Crazy, boucoup dinky doh dow Crazy world enslavery.
          I will differ a little on entropy. Seems the energy that is unaccounted for is being keep out of equilibrium on purpose by those that can. In every category an ism is created by the addition or subtraction of energy however form it should take. Disrupting those disturbances consumes all our time and as you suggest doesnt seem to aflect the energy supplier controllers. Corbett is a good example of a disruptor. You can see a disruptor can be a natural outcome or a complexly planed propaganda. That has been highlighted in the past successes of well placed propaganda.
          Sunday-zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz im done. But not done in.
          Almost 400 comments. Before the editor in chiefs return to shut it down we should reach 400 . Hats off to the shared effort ! How often has that occurred in the past. Any stats historians in the crowd?

          • We are on Page 3 of the Open Thread.

          • Alex you have pushed the italics and BOLD frontiers to new heights. Too funny …

            You are killing people on three continents.

          • gbw,

            Yeah, there’s an historian in the crowd.

            Check this Corbett video with its 786 comments, I think you’d remember, no?

            https://www.corbettreport.com/fact-checking-newsbuds-syria-under-siege-video/

            Not sure if alexandre saw this video, but this video is what drew me into the comments section, because it blew my mind. I’d been a Corbett subscriber for years, but never even thought to look at the comment section. But, having been a fan of Sibel Edmunds, this incident was so startling, I had to pipe up. Ultimately, or rather, little by little, I started to suspect that Sibel was instrumental – nefariously – in helping to cement the official story of 9/11 into the psyche of the general public.

            To be sure, Corbett has not mentioned Sibel’s name since.

            And, it’s also funny that just now, typing Sibel Edmonds into the search bar … comes up with nothing. Weird.

            I’ve got some theories about McGowan, as well. His three crowning achievements – first 9/11 skeptic, exposé of weird going’s on in Laurel Canyon, exposé of moon landings being fake…. Think about it. Think about reverse psychology. Think. Think think think think think.

            To be continued…. 🙂

            • Candlelight , I wish I could forget. I had a bad attitude and wrote some awful things. The first person who steered me out of darkness had put Sybell’s book into my hands. What a sophisticated piece a work. I know a lot more now and have stopped grieving, a painful process but I survived. It ultimately was a learning experience. The theory of counterintelligence in long form was an eyeopener. Emotions. Seeing is for the brain and hearing is for the heart. In appreciation of what I learned, I Apologize to anyone that I may have been overly unfair with due to momentary insanity at that time.
              Think is right . 786 is a sign of an emotioal Whopper . Thanks for pointing that piece of history out.

            • I watched the entire Corbett podcast again, and he does make it rather plain that by washing his hands completely of Sibel and Newsbud, that that was going to be the end of talking about it. He was in a heightened emotive mood, and I can see how that was truly definitive – no more discussion, no more talk. And, from a mental health point of view, it was probably intuitive…. However, he did say, at the same time, that he’d need to go back and reevaluate the work he did with her. I’ve waiting for the reevaluation, but, perhaps it’s not so necessary. Like you mention, his admonition – it’s the information, not the individual. And, like he concluded with Sibel, take what she’s had to say – meaning everything she’s ever had to say – and take it with a very large chunk of salt…. Amen. So, yes, given his reaction, I’m sure he must have felt conned. However, a day later, he was as jovial as could be as if nothing had happened, which surprised me, because I was still pissed as hell! I mean, I felt conned by Sibel, too, besides being incensed by her concerted effort to destroy the reputation of Beeley and Bartlett. In fact, since that time, just for my own head, and to spite that bitch, Edmunds, and because I think it’s the right thing to do, too, I give monthly financial support to Barlett’s cause…. Fuck Sibel Edmunds.

              It’s funny, you mention Annie Jacobsen, and then gbw brings up Diana West, another dubious author of enticing factoids…. The link gbw provided of Annie being interviewed by Barry Eisler is so telling. I’m watching it and thinking, okay, the interviewer is pretty cool, he get’s it. He’s not really buying Annie’s bullshit. Then I check him out, to find he’s a rather prolific author, himself, besides being a former CIA operative. That little tid-bit isn’t some secretive conspiracy theory, it’s self-admitted. So, here’s an author of popular dime store novels, who seems cool, and yet is CIA. Oh, sorry, I meant “former” CIA.

              But, isn’t it true of what they say about the Marines? That there is no such person as an ex-Marine?….

              Once a Marine, always a Marine.

              So, man, it’s all a joke. So much of its a joke. And, yeah, it’s the info, not the person. But, you have to look at the person, too, to make some heads or tails of the info. Just like it is said, or speculated, some truths revealed, on balance, are designed to obfuscate greater lies…. And, there lies a ring of truth.

              So, as far as McGowan goes, getting back to him for a split second, what do we actually know about him? Do we really know anything about him? His background?

              I was getting a good vibe from Barry Eisler, until I realized his background, and then not so much. I don’t a good feeling from McGowan, whatsoever, making me wonder the possibility of how deep he goes. And I get this nasty feeling that its real deep.

              I guess I first just gotta read the man’s damned “Weird…” book.

            • alexandre,

              This is the second half of a post that’s waiting in the moderation cue…. Ah, it’s here just in case it were to get…wait for it……SNIPPED!

              I’d hate for all that time, energy and brain effort to go out the proverbial window, as it’s very limited:

            • Wow this whole open thread is like MBPs bus ride. You expect the best when you leave the curb. Then some nut comes along and you realize how fragile reality can be. Then a child turns high entropy into low entropy. From the mouths of babes.
              Corbett has a contact box on the banner and offers several ways to speak directly to him for truth. Speculating on how he thinks, acts ect. Isn’t a pursuit of truth. Ask him directly, then write the reply here and share the truth. He is busy but decent sort a guy who may share a truth. If you leave it on his desk you have a greater chance of a reply than leaving it here in the comment weeds. If its a MYOB , he will say so. I love a good theory. Then the speculation then a synthesis. Somehow I feel you all jumped the theory and went right to the speculations. Who is willing to try, then let us know im curious. Interview the creator behind the curtain at home and make an honest report.

            • gbw,

              I’m trying to decipher your post.

              Something seems to be eating you? Also, can you expand on the fine line between theory and speculation?

              Can you articulate, spell out, what these speculations are, if indeed, there are specific speculations, that seem to be bothering you, particularly on this open thread? Something to do with a “creator”?

              Also, you advise getting to the truth via direct contact with Corbett…. Ironically, when interviewed by Josh Sigurdson, Corbett laughs about Josh’s email of three years ago having been buried under thousands of emails….

              Meanwhile, the “best comment section on the Internet”, your weed patch, is scrutinized by the “creator”.

              I also see a certain degree of nuance at times, where the “creator” seems influenced by what he reads here.

              Anyway, to the degree you seem flustered, I just wish you were more specific, rather than engaging in the vague trope of high entropy. lol

              I, for one, like to engage in speculative theorizing about how and what people may be thinking – even the “creator” – oh God!, based upon how they act and what they say.

              cheers

            • “Then a child turns high entropy into low entropy.”

              Honestly, I felt like I was being referred to here as I did soil the thread with my use of a foul acronym. But if I may, I was playfully hearkening back to the witty repartee of long since departed redneck JimBob of Flourida who promised to write a book about his life using those same letters. He was such a hoot.

            • “Then a child turns high entropy into low entropy.”
              refers to ManBearPig’s amazing ‘bus ride story’ of sitting next to a crazy lady.

            • Candlelight , it was all about Sybill and all the emotional speculation of the editor-in- Chief. James use to comment frequently about the work, content, intention and direction ect… Then less and less as it blossomed and he had to of put a lot of time into it. Now , he needs to be interviewed. Grilled . Why?
              Cause we have more in common that not. I feel he would respond to a direct question more readily than a passing speculation in the subscriber comments. Thats all .Since he may not be a RIIA asset then I suppose he will live up to being a fine , compassionate person. Who like everyone else took Sabel for face value until…? It had to be a shock, maybe a little..He certainly is not American , in many ways he is a lot like one of my best friend who also grew up in Calgary- Red Deer. And he has no use for big- guv’ment either.

            • Candlelight and Alex; your right that is so old now . its ok .
              Pearl seems to be the best decipher-er I can think of. Otherwise there’s no hope cause. I would have to get all the horses back in the barn to start over. SayLa Vie. We got new fish to fry.
              Like 5G. US Cellular has begun running ads to prompt people to get their Galaxy 5G phone in a hurry. Even though this town doesnt have 5G yet. I get the feeling if 5G gets stopped , industry will get stuck with a lot of worthless hardware. The telecoms are just finishing the fiber optic lines to homes so 5G is not needed.

            • Ah! Thanks for clarifying, HRS! I’m so relieved I didn’t flip any tables this time.

            • gbw,

              Thanks for your reply. As you can see, both pearl and alexandre got swept up into it. 🙂

              But, about Sibel: Sybill – your spelling is actually pretty funny. Is it on purpose? Urban Dictionary’s got it down – “A girl that is hot, yet crazy. Might have several different personalities and may use all of them on you.”

              https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=sybill

              Your reaction was feeling the need to defend Corbett’s actions and/or non-actions, with regard to following up with this bizarre conundrum – the Sibel/Sybill Conundrum: You asked: “Now , he needs to be interviewed. Grilled . Why?”

              There’s no need for any grilling.

              I just want you to know that after watching the podcast again after two long years, I understand Corbett’s position. Or, at least, I have a certain theory about just why he’s been completely silent – but, unfortunately, though, it’s definitely pure speculation on my part, yet, as alexandre said, it would be silly of me to expect some sort of answer from Corbett were I to contact him directly about it. I don’t need an answer. I believe his silence, or his need for silence, or his requirement(?) for silence, has to do with who, in fact, she really is, and who she represents…. But, brother, I’m going to leave it there, the same as we’ve heard Corbett say many a times….

              However! I do not agree that hers is not an important story in general. That somehow it, or she, has lost relevance. Sibel Edmonds remains intrinsically tied to the history of the event of 9/11. And in my book, understanding and unraveling her role in obfuscating the truth about 9/11 will forever be relevant.

              But, I can’t stress enough that I have no issues with Corbett on this matter.

              Indeed, while he was definitely taken aback, completely blindsided, and utterly disgusted by Edmonds, he demonstrated no less than the chivalry of a knight, in that he stood up for Beeley and Bartlett, selflessly, and at his own expense. And no one else’s.

              Be good.

          • Wow!
            That is one heck of a bus ride!

            The next time I get on a bus, I will be sure to bring Mogan David in a brown bag; a classic for buses going back to the 70’s.

            GBW: “How often has that occurred in the past. Any stats historians in the crowd?”

            I believe Corbett’s break from Sibel Edmonds/Newsbud racked up close to 700 comments. In fact, as things were finally simmering down, I had left a comment there which was quickly followed by a guy who observed that I may have been the one who posted comment number, wait for it….666!!!!!!! ROTF/GLMAO!

            Alex: “[SNIP] Keep comments under 500 comments please. JC”

            Seriously, I did a double-take here. I was like, WTF?!!

            Okay, back to catching up…

          • Whoa, seriously MBP? That busride! I felt like I was right there, you captured the moment beautifully! What a trip! Poor lady.

        • MBP; a bonifid ROTFLMAO moment.

    • Alex, the signals corps is my thought. How to code break the privacy of ones mind. Very military and very sought after prize of intelligence gathering. TMOM documentary by the Dykes. The Musk neuro- link, Hal Puhtoff professor at Stanford, Col.Tom Bearded. All that money spent on it , the theory, of hacking the radio frequency of the mind. Mirra, look you set only a foot or to away from a magnetic field generator receiver and trasmitter of your home computer. Your bio electrical systems radio frequency over laps your devices broad band frequencies and gets picked up in a carrier wave. Just a matter of decoding the frequencies and separating out yours from the noise. How many times this week alone has your internet use seem to anticipate your thoughts?.
      Signal decoding then signal transmitting capability theory. Your thoughts maestro?

      Imagine it and Darpa can try to realize it. We will be the last to know if we are hacked as we create our own thoughts.
      Also the bragging Hollywood films made recently ( last 10 years) on the subject.

      • alexandre,

        Danko’s got stagefright, too

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ll7PIZPRFz0&t=320s

        I watched that link of yours on Native American-Indian slavery and how the Colonists were shipping these people around – down to the Caribbean, etc. I hadn’t heard that before. Like the panelist intimated, it’s history that’s been conveniently suppressed. I might even get the book that was mentioned – “Brethren By Nature”, that covers a comprehensive piece of this untold history.

        Also, looking up more about McGowan. Found out that he was anti-peak oil. And was calling Michael Ruppert a lot of names – charlatan, mole, etc.

        I liked Michael Ruppert. The last few years of his life he kind of dropped out, and picked up on Native American spirituality. Basically, he checked out leaving behind an old jalopy, his dog, and the gun he used to put a bullet in his head. F**king sad story. I remember him writing or speaking about some trip he took to some city, maybe Seattle, it was enough to make him feel ill. In other words, he was at a point that he couldn’t handle society anymore, with its vacuousness, the hustle bustle market of humanity. Some switch must have turned on, he must have seen the light, and couldn’t bear it.

        So, now I have to reckon with one more disillusionment, courtesy of David McGowan? Based on the premise that McGowan thinks that oil replenishes itself by bubbling up from Earth’s mantle, that it’s not a fossil fuel, but “abiotic”:

        Hey, man, go help yourself to a colossal slice of conspiracy pie!

        https://educate-yourself.org/cn/davemcgowan70newsletter12oct04.shtml

        So, anyway, thanks to McGowan, I can now kiss Ruppert goodbye, kiss goodbye any illusions of the goodness of a whole slew of some of my favorite musicians, and say goodbye to the absolutely absurd notion of the moonwalk(what would Michael Jackson say!)! Goodness gracious, leave technology to the Japanese, then! Those dummies are busy landing rockets on asteroids just for kicks!

        It’s not easy getting everything straight.

        Though, it is also fortunate for us that McGowan, within 24 hours of 9/11, knew it was a false flag, state-sponsored event, knew the buildings were imploded, knew that draconian measures curtailing freedoms would be enacted immediately, and knew enough to write on September 12th that “The official story has already been written”.

        Even I didn’t know all that after 24 hours.

        Maybe he had connections?

        Dunno.

      • I honestly don’t know whether to McGowan or not to McGowan. Your all’s discussion regarding him has interested me very much since I was asking about him months ago. His instantaneous 9/11 insight is kind of weird, but his supporting the abiotic theory actually works to his favor. There’s lots more to that debate. I just found a link to a site featuring an interesting article supporting compelling abiotic science as well as a rather interesting debate going on the comment section:

        The article starts with a video of Col. Fletcher Prouty where he…

        “explains how oil was falsely classified a ‘fossil fuel’ in 1892. Prouty reveals how that deception was advanced further in the 70’s by Kissinger and Rockefeller. Prouty also explains that Nixon/Kissinger/Rockefeller were seeking a ‘world oil price’.

        “New science from Sweden proves oil comes naturally from rocks: Until now these believers in ‘abiotic oil’ have been dismissed as professing “bad science” but — alas — a new study has proven them correct!

        “Reported in ScienceDaily, researchers at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm have managed to prove that fossils from animals and plants are not necessary for crude oil and natural gas to be generated. The findings are revolutionary since this means, on the one hand, that it will be much easier to find these sources of energy and, on the other hand, that they can be found all over the globe.”

        Yes sad indeed. What’s your take on his death? It seems you believe he committed suicide?
        I’m not totally convinced. Perhaps suicided?

        What surprised me was how silent the alt-media was in general after his death.

        “Though, it is also fortunate for us that McGowan, within 24 hours of 9/11, knew it was a false flag, state-sponsored event, knew the buildings were imploded, knew that draconian measures curtailing freedoms would be enacted immediately, and knew enough to write on September 12th that “The official story has already been written”.

        Even I didn’t know all that after 24 hours.

        Maybe he had connections?”

        Yes that is quite impressive, but what’s much more impressive to me is Bill Cooper’s prediction of 9/11! It’s a crying shame he was targeted and snuffed out by the police shortly after 9/11.
        That man was brilliant.

      • You’re not lost, Alex! You were able to get back on the thread! And Candlelight burns bright in the wee hours.

        Of course, in this age every discussion will go on forever.

        Sad but true!

      • Haha, Pearl! Then candlelight crashes in the wee wee hours(the hours after the wee hours)!

        The link you posted about the abiotic source of crude has some interesting comments below the article, and I tend to go with those who support the notion that oil is derived from ancient organisms and is the standard fossil fuel model. That’s not to say that the theory of an abiotic source is impossible. But, whatever studies were done doesn’t seem to have replicated long chain hydrocarbon molecules such as what predominates in crude. If you read the comments posted by people who claim to have long working experience and knowledge in the field, as one says, the title of the article is rather hyperbolic, in that, one, the fossil model in not a theory, and, two, the article far from “busts” it.

        As I’ve read elsewhere, even if the abiotic theory is true, that crude is very deep down, and not easily accessible. But, listen, I’m no expert. Yet, I do know that in 2014 when oil prices were manipulated and crashed, a lot of small oil drilling companies in the US went belly up because the cost of conventional drilling was too high – high costs and low output. Somehow, Ruppert’s theory seems to make sense. The deeper you have to drill, the more it costs, especially if you’re not hitting any gushers, and most wells aren’t. The industry is constantly improvising to try to extract enough oil for sustainability – drilling deeper, slant drilling, increasing pressure, etc. If it were so easy these days to extract oil, why do they want to open up vast new areas of Alaskan preserves and elsewhere? Why would they need to? Why would they have felt the need to build, at great expense, that dastardly pipeline from the Canadian oil sands – crappy oil that’s a mucky,thick and sludgy slop – all the way down to the Gulf of Mexico(I think the idea was recently abandoned just days ago)? You know what I’m saying? When it comes to believing in easily accessible, economically sustainable, ever replenishing abiotic crude, we have as our source of information, the Russians and Dave McGowan.

        Pearl, if I’ve made any errors with the foregoing, you have my permission to rap my knuckles with that ruler of yours! And strike out my mistakes with red marker!! 🙂

      • Falwty Towers –

        It’s funny you should mention Bill Cooper, because when I finished my post about McGowan being a little too prescient, that’s who I thought of with his amazing prediction warning that if they say Bin Laden attacked us – “Don’t you believe it!” And his lead up to that warning was both an eyeopener and an incredible primer in just plain horse sense! I found nothing in the slightest sinister in it.

        McGowan, though, I just get really bad vibes. The interview of him that I’m linking below was nearly unbearable to listen to – it sounded like such hogwash. Just stupidity. He didn’t even sound like he wrote his own book (Laurel Canyon). His one point he repeats over and over again is the familial connection McGowan claims the musicians had to military intelligence. Oh? Do we have to read the book to find out just how many connections there were, besides Jim Morrison and his dad? In a whole hour, he mentions zero specifics. Plus all these stupid innuendos, like why would all these people go to LA, and why to Laurel Canyon?? Oooh, how spooky! Later in the interview, this moron answers his own question when he says unlike LA’s environs, Laurel Canyon was really pretty, rolling hillsides with lovely flora and fauna, etc.,etc….. Well, duh? Then there’s no wonder folks gravitated to hanging out there, not just musicians, but Hollywood types. It makes perfect effing sense, if the place is beautiful. And all that guilt by association which runs through the entire novel, such as rubbing up against a psychopath like Manson, who made the rounds. Maybe he came off as real quirky, but cool enough to let into their clique. Was everyone supposed to know the guy would turn out to be a murdering lunatic? And the timeline of his major premise of the CIA influence over these people and the CIA’s so-called objectives of quelling anti-war protest makes absolutely no sense. His timeline vs sequential historical events don’t add up. All I can say is, McGowan is just plain ridiculous. He’s total bullshit.

        Getting back to his Sept. 12th article wherein he basically outlined and encapsulated nearly the entire gamut of talking points of what would become the 9/11 truth movement, listen to what he says in his interview @ 18.33 mins, but, when he mentions the ant-war movement or talks of anti-war protests, please substitute and think 9/11 truth movement, instead. If you do that, then he takes the words right out of my mouth as to what I think his Sept. 12th article is all about:

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzA8iZkpixQ&t=1113s

        By the way, as for Ruppert, and him killing himself, if I may paraphrase, he went as far as to tell a confidant and friend, that if it seems as if I committed suicide, I did.

      • alexandre,

        “Time to grow up and throw away everything that’s not within your arm’s reach and any authority that doesn’t come from your own experience.”

        Those are words to live by.

        I’m glad you don’t think Ruppert was a fraud or a mole. And, I agree with you, that he did truly believe in peek oil.

        What I think he may not have calculated in his dire predictions is the effect that ever more advancing technology has on the industry, combined with ever greater fuel efficiency, not only seen in cars, but basically in whatever uses fuel from crude and natural gas. And he probably didn’t realize they’d be fracking the crap out of the countryside, everywhere and anywhere.

        Anyway, candlelight is now out of midnight oil. Maybe I’ll be going Corbett Report by airmail.

        Or maybe I’ll bump into you at the supermarket. Lol

        But, one way or another….

        ….I’ll be back. Thud

      • haha, I didn’t know you snuck that in – the light that burns twice as bright…..

        And, damn, now I’m out!

        Sheeeeet!

      • “Anyone gone to the last Rose interview yet?”

        Yes, check it out! Conversations thriving there too! Same goes for the Ron Paul post. Keep up, Alex! 🙂

        Candlelight, my scientific knowledge is woefully childish, and the more I talk surely the more apparent this becomes, BUT the only reservation I have is that “renewable” be tied to the idea of instant refills. Even if it may be concluded that oil is abiotic, our groaning, shifting earth takes its time replacing and displacing it. So, in the scheme of things, maybe in pans out the same?

        Okay, I’m in over my head…back to the shallow end of the pool I go.

  48. Another Saturday Night Music Fest on this “Open Thread”

    (pause as the vinyl spins and the needle comes down)

    The great folk singer from the North, Zhang Gasong, can sure pick that Chinese Banjo as he sings songs from his recent album…
    Tales of COVID-19 Coronavirus
    (2 minutes)
    https://twitter.com/whambammian/status/1230530470229815296

    Some of the lyrics (I think):
    “…if I had known the village was on lockdown I wouldn’t have pretended to be rich by renting a car to return home.”

    “Had I known my village was going to be locked down, I would have held my girlfriend’s hand more❤.”
    He is singing for his grandma to cheer her up.

    • Is Mickey Zhang the guy in the channel’s photo and a relation to Gasong Zhang?

      Thats how I took it at first.

      When I view the ‘Wuhan Epidemic’ song on my phone it says 121 views.

      • Here is my take…

        The “Mickey Zhang” YouTube channel is probably some person in the west posting Gasong’s work.
        Gasong also seems to meet a variety of westerners in China.
        One video talks about his “big brother” who probably is the drummer.

        I am sure that many westerners enjoy Gasong’s “joy of living”, unpretentiousness and exploring nature. I sure do. I don’t need to understand the words. I can pick-up the intent and fun.

        I have read comments that some of Gasong Zhang’s work has been censored in China.

        My top comment above, the Twitter post is by Alex Davey.
        He writes:
        “Last night I made my first appearance on Irish national television to bring context to the tragic deaths of 39 ”Chinese nationals” found in the back of a truck container in Essex. There are still a lot of unanswered questions. My heart breaks for the families of these victims.”
        The 2 minute video was very enlightening for me in better understanding China.
        https://twitter.com/whambammian/status/1187810226612985856

        • Regarding this YouTube video from my comment:
          “Here is Zhang Gasong’s Music Video with GRAPHICS & Translation”
          (Don’t miss the bat soup)

          Actually, originally, I tried to find another source for the video which had the GRAPHICS.
          Here is why…

          When you go to the “YouTube Channel Holder” (Mulan Chuanqi), you will notice names/videos like Guo Wengui, aka “Miles Kwok”, Steve Bannon, Kyle Bass.

          Also NOTICE that you do not “see” the video on the Mulan Chuanqi video list for February 2020. This may be because of YouTube censorship and “limiting” certain videos…I don’t know.
          I heard on a YouTube video which I was watching that some videos regarding the coronavirus are “limited”. …whatever that means.

          The U.S. has its strong anti-China faction, and these government influencers (Guo Wengui, aka “Miles Kwok”, Steve Bannon, Kyle Bass) play a big role in that.
          Propaganda wars between nations.

          On Corbett Report’s October 2019 Interview 1482 – The China Deception on This Week in Money, I posted quite a bit of information about Guo Wengui, aka “Miles Kwok”, Steve Bannon, Kyle Bass.

    In this video Dan Dicks of Press For Truth speaks with James Corbett of The Corbett Report about the moving of the goalposts when it comes to referring to “climate change” and how this rebranding effort is designed to convince you that human beings are the cause of an ever growing climate emergency that only government can save us from.

    Greta how dare you Thunberg is on a mission to convince you that YOU are the problem and that more government is the solution. In the 80’s we were told it was the “greenhouse effect” in the 90’s it was “global warming” that morphed into “climate change” which is now being rebranded as “climate emergency” in an effort to ramp up the fear needed for offering a global solution.

    Dr Shiva Ayyadurai testifying at the Connecticut Statehouse about VACCINE MANDATES by authorities.
    i.e. “We need to Decentralize Medicine. That’s science.”

    I can’t find your original comment.

    But I gotta tell ya, that this was an incredibly skillful presentation on Dr. Shiva’s part.
    As an example, notice how he withdraws in a communication manner which causes the panel to reach towards him with questions.
    Another example: He doesn’t “fight with” nor “push” the perspective, but validates the panel’s viewpoints and then rolls the communication from there. He makes people right.

    • A tidbit about Dr Shiva Ayyadurai and Fran Drescher.
      Both tweeted that they had married and the event was widely reported as such in the media around September 2014.
      Ayyadurai later said it was not “a formal wedding or marriage”, but a celebration of their “friendship in a spiritual ceremony with close friends and her family.”
      The couple parted ways two years later.

  55. February 23 Sunday
    February 24 Monday
    National Holiday in Japan

    The Emperor’s Birthday in Japan for 2020 is February 23rd, a Sunday.
    Since it falls on a Sunday this year, the 24th is the National Holiday from work.

    I think Coronavirus fears have forced the cancellation of Naruhito’s first public birthday celebration as emperor at Tokyo’s Imperial Palace on February 23rd 2020.

    Emperor Akihito’s birthday was on December 23rd and this was the date of the holiday between 1989 and 2018. In April 2019, Akihito became the first living monarch to relinquish the Chrysanthemum throne in nearly 200 years.

    His successor, Emperor Naruhito’s birthday is on February 23rd is now the date of the Emperor’s Birthday holiday from 2020.

    James Corbett gave us the low-down last year with his article of March 31, 2019 “Japan’s Emperor is Abdicating. Here’s What It Means.”

  56. Authoritative Mandatory QUARANTINE
    What are your thoughts?

    “quarantine” – definition as a verb – impose isolation on (a person, animal, or place)

    • I guess a quarantine, or isolation, doesn’t have to be mandated ONLY during an (alleged) outbreak of a (supposedly) contagious disease.

      I’m remembering how Bostonians were effectively quarantined after the Boston bombing drill. Hmm, I guess that could also be called martial law or a lock down.

      It’s getting to the point where it seems these terms and practices can be applied interchangeably. All with the evil intent of containing and controlling individuals’ thoughts and actions by making us believe that we are NOT born free, NOT autonomous, sovereign beings, but are instead designed to be fearful, obedient robots/slaves/lab rats who do the bidding of our superior eugenicist masters.

      Seems like these quarantines are part of one huge, ongoing experiment to see just how submissive we will become to their violent force, their immoral and illegal edicts, their clever coercion, their outright lies.

      As James made clear in one of his recent Anarchapulco interviews, he refuses to submit; he would rather die standing up to “them.” That’s probably the feeling most of us here have.

      P.S. Edited to change “edits” to “edicts.” Not far off: “They” would like to “edit” us out of existence with the click of a delete button!

Thats what I called my 1964 Red medium Hollow body GS150 Gibson. Dual pickups . Dual tone, volume controls three way switch for the pick ups. Wha- Wha bar. Neck as straight as an arrow .The red maple body had ivory coloured trim.

        • Alex , im guessing the chip in the brain nonsense is a red herring away from the charged atmosphere and frequency studies on life. You can imagine the scenario Where someone goes bezerk and claims a chip has been implanted in his body. Of course after execution the coroner goes looking for the chip and can’t find one so therefore no cause but nature made him go bezerk. Nothing to see or find here. There is too many patents and papers on it for people like Poppy Crum not to earn a fortune weoponizing the gadgets for the DOD, DRAPA. Do you suppose people are being targeted. Is it a High, Medium or No posibility when you say where’s the beef?
          You and i would never be a candidate for that but someone like Ayyadurai who keeps saying Outlandish things about the Establishment might. Here’s a new one from STG reports.

  59. Alexandre: “Only it only seem to work in the opposite direction, like the “you create your reality” bit. Curiously you can’t create 10.000 dollars in your account, or a call from Beyonce, so it must be understood as “a part of you that you don’t know” helps to create your reality, so it’s true, only more complicated and less controllable.”

    As far as I know, the original source of “you create your own reality” was the channeled Seth but those who used it afterwards dumbed it down, and rarely attributed it to its originator.

    Seth approached it from different directions in the books he dictated, but it can be simplified into two kinds:

    1. Each person creates their own unique space continuum unconsciously through their physical (the usual 5) senses. These are coordinated telepathically (which is why two people sitting at a table will agree on the size and shape of, say, objects sitting on the table).

    2. Conscious beliefs are also key to reality creation, which is why Seth advised his readers to examine their beliefs and, when appropriate, modify them.

    Seth, who spoke through Jane Roberts from 1963 until her death in 1984 covered a lot of ground, not just in a number of books he dictated, but also in “non-book” sessions, of which there are many. All of this is archived in New Haven at the Yale University Library, while a number of the books are still in print. Early on, too, Ms. Roberts was concerned about her psychic endeavors and endured extensive testing, successfully.

    Seth embedded exercises in his texts to validate them. An example concerning “probable selves and realities” is found in _The “Unknown Reality”_ Volume One as “Practice Element 1.” Those who have reported their experiences from doing just this exercise alone have called it “mind blowing.”

    A good introduction to Seth is his own book: _Seth Speaks: The Eternal Validity of the Soul_ (I would start with this one, not the earlier _The Seth Material_, which only contains excerpts from sessions. Note that enthusiasts use “the Seth material” to refer to all of Seth’s utterances.)

    Perhaps the best single book Seth dictated on reality creation is _The Nature of Personal Reality_.

    I doubt I would have ever heard of Seth had I not “seen” a persistent image of the cover of _Seth Speaks_ (with my “inner eye” as my eyes were closed) the first time I ever meditated (very informally — I didn’t follow any particular tradition or some arcane technique; I’d gleaned what I could from Lawrence LeShan’s _How to Meditate_ and simply took a few long, slow deep breaths, closed my eyes, deliberately relaxed my body, and allowed my thoughts to come to a stop.)

    Seth admonished his readers not to treat him as their “authority” instead advising them to access their own “intuitive portions of self.”

    From his introduction to _Seth Speaks_:

  60. Here is what the Council On Foreign Relations has to say about the Novel Corona Virus (COVID-19) outbreak:

    “Speakers discuss how the coronavirus outbreak is testing global health governance, its broader economic consequences, and its implications for the Chinese political system.”

  61. alexandre,

    I take a sort of strange comfort, or maybe it simply tickles the funny bone to think that there actually were bona fide, far-out kooks even prior to the advent of the Internet! I mean, really, gee golly, everyone knows the moon is made of cheese, not freakin plasma…. I hope Corbett would agree!

    Did you see my post with links to Charlie Veitch exposes Charlie Veitch, parts 1, 2 & 3? Do you remember Charlie Veitch, founder of the Love Police, and ex 9/11 truther? I used to think he was pretty cool. He can be found interviewed on TCR. He was interviewed on Infowars, and he was with Dan Dicks covering the G20 in Toronto. So, the dude made the rounds.

    Even though he begins his exposé trilogy explaining that it’s satire, in part 3, he shows us his passports, military credentials, including Brazilian military ID, among other family documents, and a photo of him in British uniform with a group of British military, inferring he was among some sort of special ops.

    He leaves us with this little (big!) question mark as to why would somebody have Brazilian military credentials and also be part of British special services? Naturally, Veitch doesn’t say why that would be. He leaves it to the viewer to ponder….It’s one hell of a satire. So was his walking away from the truth movement.

    Go figure?
