DNC's selection of Harris as the party candidate is proof positive that they plan on cheating and stealing another election. Will the American voters shrug again?
Alas, if only five, not six, out of the sixteen major watertight compartments on the Titanic had been flooded, she would not have sunk. I struggle mightily against my own blackpilled gloom and doom, fully aware that America has always rebounded, but this time it feels like all sixteen watertight compartments of American democracy are being overwhelmed with woke degeneracy.
One thing is 100% certain: America as we knew it, and perhaps as it never truly was, will not be coming back. Demographics will change it forever. I am not sure if this is bad or good, but what's certain is that woke incompetence and political conformity seem much worse than communist incompetence and political conformity.
With idiots coming out of Ivy League colleges and no one to replace skilled professionals, America feels stuck, like those two astronauts on the International Space Station, due to Boeing's woke incompetence and inability to bring them back. Know-how is lost. Criminality has become a method of governance and is working like a well-oiled machine, supported by an utterly brainwashed nation.
In the end, we had no chance, really. The gaslighting and brainwashing started in 1913 (Federal Reserve) and kicked into high gear after 9/11 and accelerated to this point in which nothing is real and nothing is true anymore. Thirty-four percent of Americans support killing Trump and mourn the killer's missed shot. Abortion is the only thing that matters for a vast number of liberal women, and Kamala's Indian blackness matters for so many black people.
Once the country goes mad, all is lost, with no sane people to take the helm back. Only the Cabal and Kamala's cackle will survive to tell the story of a dream being slaughtered for profit.
The kind of hard scrubbing necessary to clean up the burnt pot is so great, that many people would consider it cruel and unusual punishment to the pot. Yet it would be even more difficult to punish the people in charge of the cooking.
Life continues to imitate art. 'Nothing is real' was also a line from John Lennon's Strawberry Fields - 'Living is easy with eyes closed' etc. Sounds a lot like many people I know. I'm still continually amazed by the old science fiction themes that the entitled ones like to resurrect: eg 'One World Government' - but why stop at one? There's a whole universe out there (eg Asimov's 'Foundation' or even 'Star Wars'). 'Artificial intelligence'? ... yeah right, when did that ever end well? Frankenstein? Well, transhumanism is one thing, but it was always a bit risky trying to create a credible President from scratch - I believe they're currently working on the new version, codenamed 'Stairmaster'.
That stupid "Woke" demon word elucidates an illegitimate basis for debate. Just because a stupid word was "demonized" doesn't make it a phenomenon. The Deep State and Every country that wants to create Culture wars or division changes a word (this happens so often, I don't understand when someone doesn't recognize their being controlled) to demonize or delegitimize a group, creating divisions in an otherwise society problem that almost all the populace is at risk from, like police brutality.
Haven't you read about thought control and propaganda? It's done through manipulating words and music and any form of communication.
Look up the REAL meaning of woke. The blacks, back in the 1920s, for good reason used to use it when they were parting ways. "Stay woke, brother or sister." Meaning keep your eyes open and stay out of dangerous situations. They said this because absolute ANYTHING, any misstep could get them killed or beaten. White people as well, if they were not in a higher income bracket. The police were watching their every move looking for a reason to bust them up. Any group police liked to victimize... teenagers was another, though not in rich communities.
Why do you think it emerged during the Black Lives Matter movement? Because black lives don't matter to the police and politicians. You know this, though you're might be one of the ones that refuse to see it.
Thank you for taking the trouble to challenge the use of this meme. It bothered me as well but you have saved me from the not very welcome task of setting out what's wrong with it, at least in part. I hope Trygve reads this and considers it seriously.
Of course, they want us to believe that their power is absolute. We have to overcome this false narrative and reclaim our sovereignty. What else do we have to live for?
Churchill's comment that “Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others” was an early form of what's currently known as a false binary - make the punters focus on two opposing irrelevancies and they won't ever question the need to have a 'government' in the first place. What's happening now is simply the internet exposing the wizard behind the curtain. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.
1. A ‘constitutional’ monarchy (whatever that is) is in reality an absolute monarchy. Always has been.
2. ‘Democracy’ has maintained the same ruling parties in power for a century. Governments are selected not elected. See the recent general election where 9 million votes for Labour secured 411 parliamentary seats, giving them a ‘landslide’ victory. But 4 million votes for the newly formed Reform party secured them just 5 seats.
Both of these cons are hidden in plain site, but the historic brainwashing of the Brits goes very deep.
An absolute monarchy, except that it’s no longer a monarch who wields the monarchy’s absolute power - which rather invites an investigation of the surreptitious (although again in plain sight) processes by which that coup d’état was effectuated.
One has to hand it to the ‘men behind the scenes’ who pulled off this seizure of power - dressing it up to be something it wasn’t - and to those who have normalized and sustained the ruse over more than three centuries…all while appearing progressively to expand democracy towards today’s universal franchise. Very clever indeed. Very cunning.
The ‘men behind the scenes’ were in the past very clever, devilishly clever, but today they are not so clever & those that manage things on their behalf - the politicians et al - are idiots. People are seeing through the old lies. Therein lies hope.
Rinse and Repeat your statements for Australia, New Zealand and where I am in Canada where we are just the same colonial outpost we have always been- including no Constitution (repatriated 🤣🤣BS in 1982). UK influence also still permeates India, Singapore and other colonial outposts. The rot spreads wide.
Bravo - thank you very much - another outstanding and timely article !
Bannon was just shipped to jail by illegal J6 “committee” hoax, like thousands of other political prisoners. I just learned that in Dec 2015, just after Trump’s victory, Bannon had a simple question and request:
Obama, in the last days of his “Hope and Change” fraudulent government suddenly expulsed not 1, not 2, not 5, not 7 -- BUT 35 (thirty five) Russian diplomats. “Reason” — Obama was given a 32-page combined PowerPoint presentation by Pentagon and all three 3-letter state security agencies.
Bannon in that December long ago asked for transparency and a justification WHAT exactly caused such huge expulsion of Russian diplomats.
We still don’t know the exact content of that presentation but — clearly a decision to develop the Russia-gate gigantic hoax of the century was made at that point !!
Probably with assistance and cooperation by British secret service. Among many results are million++ dead and disabled young men of two related and largest Slavic nations, and destruction of Germany....
PS: Obama and his family have always been CIA operators; Obama was selected and nominated for presidency by US secret service apparatus.
Bannon is a grifter, no mistake there. And a trouble maker, but part of Russia Gate? Of he want such a mafia type of person, but all the CIA, FBI, HS... well the government mafias known by as Alphabet Conglomerate or the Blob. They get caught all the time running drugs, prostitute and human trafficking rings, etc. A State policeman in my State got caught stealing jewelry and money off a dead car accident victim. That's the caliber of the Police State and we here how bad they are in other countries. We don't think the cops here don't take bribes or advantage of people, we're blinded by the MEDIA or MSM, TV shows and movies.
I beg to differ...there never was a democracy in America, since inception. So it can't die. Maybe before the white man landed, the Great Lakes Indian confederacy came somewhat close to that ideal? For that matter, neither was there a democracy in Athens, the founding myth and hallowed cliché, which supposedly masks the ever preesent rule of the dominant classes, the happy few...Democra$$y rules, as usual, in its many avatars, Proteus like, the Hydra...but then we were all brought up on fairy tales...once upon a time...so, it's ok, if that helps you better sleep at night.
We have moved from having governments who were prepared to research and study economic and social realities to a government and media production of a simulated hyperreality which arises when propaganda in its most broadest sense, is so thoroughly embedded in the systems, calculations and cultures of our institutions that it operates in an unconscious fashion. In the process, the political class become totally disconnected from both reality and the lives of the people. All government and MSM communication is entirely propaganda as they cannot provide an objective view of anything as everything they present has to support the political narratives of the day. This just leaves the people either duped or in a state of cognitive dissonance in their inability to reconcile the objective reality projected by the media with their subjective experiences in the real world.
The degrading of national institutions appears correlated with the increase in supranational processes of governance, both overt and covert.
The less that anything taking place at a predominantly national level has any genuine importance - from the standpoint of real governance - the more that propaganda and bullshit is needed to obfuscate its insignificance and distract from the true locus of power and the nature of decision making.
The War and Empire are using all our money to maintain over 800 bases girdling the globe, making countries do our Oligarchs bidding through money or might.
All those 'Color Revolutions', guess who causes those. All those Coups like the Ukraine, Pakistan, a lot recently and Bangladesh because the President there said No to the US building a base in they country.
The country got changed by the Mossad, CIA, State Dept, unknownb other bad actors and Vice President LBJ assassination of JFK. JFK wasn't an angel, but he was good for the country, or the country was changing into a democracy from the Republic that wealthy had written into the Constitution. They killed him and his brother because he and his brother were moving to break up the to powerful CIA and have the Israeli Lobby and it's Diaspora register as Foreign Agents, which they are around the world (infiltrated this government as well as the UK and EU) after they stole our nuclear secrets. I heard they did the same, at the same time (two operations just in case one failed), in France from a French citizen on here.
Just for the hell of it Isrealhell murdered the USS Liberty well off it's coast during their murderous, illegal war of 1967, killing 44(?) sailors. McNamara and Johnson himself called off the rescue of the Liberty and the Liberty heroically limped it's way back to a neutral port in the Mediterranean. I think it was a demonstration of who's the boss after the US under Johnson submitted to Isrealhell's control.
Here's a quote from the Independent of Isrealhell's "In your face" behavior: [Netanyahu ‘bringing suitcases full of dirty laundry to the White House to be washed’] Here's the Independent article, but there are many other news sources.
The US has always been ruled by an oligarchy, its nothing new! They have ruled ever since their coup after the War of Independence when they got their oligarch-friendly constitution passed. The US oligarchy have been copying the Brits from the 1780s onwards! The Civil War was just the bourgeois oligarchy defeating the land-owning part of the oligarchy. In the 1930s the US oligarchy was forced to compromise with the workers and that lead to the post-WW2 "great compression", after plans for a fascist coup had been unearthed. But from the 1970s onwards the oligarchy threw away this compromise and have now reversed things back to the days of the days of Robber Barons.
The Wilson fascist state of 1917-1921, the mass intimidation of progressive forces of McCarthyism, and the institution of mass domestic spying and subjugation and union busting from the 1980s onwards, are all part of the same pattern of the oligarchs crushing the workers and their institutions.
The stolen 2000 election, and the security-state created "saviour" Obama are both products of the oligarchy. Trump is a member of the oligarchy who is too unpredictable to be allowed to rule, that's why so much of the oligarchy turned on him.
JFK was shot because he would not do the oligarchies bidding with respect to Indonesia etc., and Nixon was taken out for the same reasons (his policies would be left of the current DNC), war hero Kerry was "swift-boated" in 2004 after the 2000 stolen election. BY 2008 the heat was too much so Obama came to sooth the population while he embedded and reinforced Bush's policies and rescued the banksters at the cost of working people. Of course 2020 was stolen, after four years of the media, state etc. being used to undermine Trump.
What now? Who knows, Trump may be allowed to win if the oligarchy decides that it is time to pull the chain of the crazies they put into the state to deal better with the failures against Russia and China. He may have been chastened enough by the attempted assassination and is a reliable Zionist. It is noticeable that Obama, the true representative of the oligarchs, was not happy with a Kamala candidacy but their own games backfired. Will the oligarchs take the risk of an utterly incompetent Harris presidency, who nows. They may prefer a chastened Trump who is an oligarch down to the platinum spoon he was born with up his arse.
Too many focus solely on the US as the perp in all political, neocon, warmongering, predatory, dastardly deeds. We are indeed the muscle behind our instructors in Great Britain. The US learned from these experts in the fields of colonization and eugenics. The Brits remain a colonial power riding on US coattails forever, and the US is a killer neocolonial power, the newer guy on the imperialist block. By this I mean that the Brits never gave up on colonialism. Never!
Many commentators on history point to the American Revolution and the War of 1812 as the two colonial wars between the US and Great Britain. What they don't get is that the US civil war was a British proxy war using the feudal south to fight the growing, threatening, wealth-building industrial north. You will recall that the Brits bought fluffy cotton (and rice) from the American south. If you visit the fine historical homes in Charleston, SC, you will find what the southern feudal Lords purchased finished goods from the Brits, furniture, finished luxury textiles, glass and silver among other amenities. Does this sound familiar? Cheap farm goods sold, finished products purchased, including finished textiles. So who needed the American plantation/farm goods? The Brits. Who fought to maintain this feudal system based on deadly, corrupt slavery that benefitted the Brits? Poor southerners did, because most of the south was extremely poor, including the white people. Does this strategy sound familiar? It should.
I rant thus because Alex includes the Brits as dastardly deed doers in our current mess. Thank you, Alex, for your accuracy. When someone says that the Americans ordered the arrogant, corrupt Boris Johnson to talk Zelensky into scotching the Istanbul peace talks, my blood boils. No one had to guide Bojo in the eugenics exercise that is Ukraine. Crown Agents has long had an office in Kiev. British elites are involved first hand in destroying Ukraine and probably enjoying every minute of it.
As an aside and somewhat off topic, I wrote a piece at propagandagirl.substack.com about mean girl Ursula von der Leyen in which I note her ancestry. She is the descendant of a very successful slave trader from the aforementioned American south. I have come to the conclusion that people and their offspring really don't change much over time.
The skill and manipulation of players, and the media, is high level: the propaganda is extremely well thought out, planned out, and years in the making. Decades, and perhaps a century or so in its' current orientation. The fact that the UK/The Firm - City of London is rarely mentioned, but the Muscle is, shows the craftiness level. 10/10.
Hubris, arrogance by another name, and reliance on ridiculous models will aid us in maintaining freedom. Everyone has a name and address, even the people who move in the shadows.
Thank you Alex, for this very interesting comparison between the UK and our government. This closer look at our alliance with England--the Monarchy of England, the Bank of London, the UK political system and the Welcome Trust--is one of the benefits of the COVID years. My eyes have been opened and I am grateful to you and many others who have helped me to see what I couldn't or wouldn't see before. Only, what you are laying before me is even more damning than what I've previously learned. So England has never given up on colonizing us and now it appears we are just a chip off the old block of Britannia. Unfortunately THEIR plan is so advanced that they cannot stay hidden now and are moving very quickly to cinch the deal. Yes, I just read a Brownstone article on election fraud and it appears there is NO chance that the 2024 election could be a fair contest. It is far worse than what I had thought--but where does that leave Kennedy? Of course, the MSM will not give us any truth about how he is polling. Of course we are told Kamala is polling better than Trump and Kennedy isn't mentioned. He certainly can will--if the elections were fair. He is the only candidate for a sane electorate, He is the only candidate who claims he will end the corporate capture of all the agencies that were meant to protect us but have sold out decades ago. He has the legal know how, the intelligence and the intention and integrity to make it happen. You can say that he will never make it to the White House, but he will shine a light on values that Americans are remembering are worth having and will help us reclaim a passion for our Constitutional Rights that Biden has betrayed. Most importantly, he is serious about UNITING the American people--Healing the Divide. This is critical for being able to see beyond the hypnotic spell that has us all at each other's throats. There are many other wonderful things about this man but I don't have time to lay it out for you right now. Anyone who really wants to know why Kennedy is the only candidate for these really difficult times should watch WhoisBobbyKennedy.com He is the best candidate I have seen in my 76 years on this planet.
I'll echo that: Robert Kennedy Jr certainly can win, and please don't anyone fall for the false narrative that he can't. Support for him is surging every day, despite the fact that the mainstream media either smears or ignores him, as dictated by their primary advertisers – namely big pharma – which want to protect their corrupt hegemony.
Those corrupt entities know that Kennedy is the only candidate who has the expertise, independence, and determination to clean up the corrupt morass between corporations and government and actually DRAIN THE SWAMP, which he will begin doing on Day One of his presidency.
He will unite the country and heal the existential divide that the two establishment parties foster with their name-calling and vitriol. (That fostering of division, by the way, is a technique to distract and conceal the reality that they're funded by the same Big Everything entities and are thus controlled by them. RFK Jr is not.)
The unbiased Zogby polls, which have far greater accuracy and include who will actually be on the ballots, with RFK Jr listed by name and not just 'other,' all indicate that these types of assertions that he can't win are false. Quite to the contrary – Kennedy wins in every scenario.
I encourage everyone to put Netflix aside for a couple of evenings and listen to what he actually says, not what others say about him, in his many podcasts, interviews, and videos. www.kennedy24.com is a good place to start. You'll be blown away by his character, intellect and heart, and the way he tackles things that matter most. His focus is unity, not division, and people, not politics, and he is what we so desperately need.
And you have to understand that this "slow dying" was known and has been planned well in advance. The exact same points covered here do also apply to the political system in Spain. We even have a name for the rule of "the party inner clique": it's the "partidocracia" - the direct translation to English ("Partycracy") sounds a little weird, though.
The current system in Spain, dating from 1978, was modelled on the one of the German Federal Republic, and was imposed onto the Spanish population thanks to the usual suspects: CIA & bought politicians, with the help of the German SPD. So you have at the very least 2 countries where this system has been imposed by force, in order to secure its control by external actors. And it is coming back to roost to the USA, like the proverbial chicken.
Every day I find out something interesting about our British system, the latest being our so called Sir Kier is not even called Starmer, so who is this mystery man (apart from a giant pain in the ass)?
Great article!!
Alas, if only five, not six, out of the sixteen major watertight compartments on the Titanic had been flooded, she would not have sunk. I struggle mightily against my own blackpilled gloom and doom, fully aware that America has always rebounded, but this time it feels like all sixteen watertight compartments of American democracy are being overwhelmed with woke degeneracy.
One thing is 100% certain: America as we knew it, and perhaps as it never truly was, will not be coming back. Demographics will change it forever. I am not sure if this is bad or good, but what's certain is that woke incompetence and political conformity seem much worse than communist incompetence and political conformity.

Yah, sure, you betcha, there's no icebergs to be seen in that part of the North Atlantic?
Now that claim re: icebergs in Western part of the North Atlantic, that's just dumber than fuck. Not quite "flat earther" dumb, but well up there.

Knowledge and Truth will out.
There are two great cons at work in Britain.
1. A ‘constitutional’ monarchy (whatever that is) is in reality an absolute monarchy. Always has been.
2. ‘Democracy’ has maintained the same ruling parties in power for a century. Governments are selected not elected. See the recent general election where 9 million votes for Labour secured 411 parliamentary seats, giving them a ‘landslide’ victory.

The ‘British’ Crown is rotting from the inside under Charles, Camilla & William.
I doubt they will survive beyond Charles.
When they collapse the whole British establishment (inc the former colonies)- which is built around them - will go.
That’s the hope.

The US has always been ruled by an oligarchy, its nothing new! They have ruled ever since their coup after the War of Independence when they got their oligarch-friendly constitution passed. The US oligarchy have been copying the Brits from the 1780s onwards! The Civil War was just the bourgeois oligarchy defeating the land-owning part of the oligarchy. In the 1930s the US oligarchy was forced to compromise with the workers and that lead to the post-WW2 "great compression", after plans for a fascist coup had been unearthed. But from the 1970s onwards the oligarchy threw away this compromise and have now reversed things back to the days of the days of Robber Barons.
The Wilson fascist state of 1917-1921, the mass intimidation of progressive forces of McCarthyism, and the institution of mass domestic spying and subjugation and union busting from the 1980s onwards, are all part of the same pattern of the oligarchs crushing the workers and their institutions.
The stolen 2000 election, and the security-state created "saviour" Obama are both products of the oligarchy. Trump is a member of the oligarchy who is too unpredictable to be allowed to rule, that's why so much of the oligarchy turned on him.
JFK was shot because he would not do the oligarchies bidding with respect to Indonesia etc., and Nixon was taken out for the same reasons (his policies would be left of the current DNC), war hero Kerry was "swift-boated" in 2004 after the 2000 stolen election. BY 2008 the heat was too much so Obama came to sooth the population while he embedded and reinforced Bush's policies and rescued the banksters at the cost of working people. Of course 2020 was stolen, after four years of the media, state etc. being used to undermine Trump.
What now? Who knows, Trump may be allowed to win if the oligarchy decides that it is time to pull the chain of the crazies they put into the state to deal better with the failures against Russia and China. He may have been chastened enough by the attempted assassination and is a reliable Zionist. It is noticeable that Obama, the true representative of the oligarchs, was not happy with a Kamala candidacy but their own games backfired. Will the oligarchs take the risk of an utterly incompetent Harris presidency, who nows. They may prefer a chastened Trump who is an oligarch down to the platinum spoon he was born with up his arse.
In 2007 I ran for mayor of SF killafornia against Gruesome Gavin Gruesome Newsom. I lost.
ScKamala put me in jail, solitary isolation, six months, because she is a good demoRat.
They also took away my Grasshopper taxicab business forevermore.
Oh, wow. Bad.
Too many focus solely on the US as the perp in all political, neocon, warmongering, predatory, dastardly deeds. We are indeed the muscle behind our instructors in Great Britain. The US learned from these experts in the fields of colonization and eugenics. The Brits remain a colonial power riding on US coattails forever, and the US is a killer neocolonial power, the newer guy on the imperialist block. By this I mean that the Brits never gave up on colonialism. Never!
Many commentators on history point to the American Revolution and the War of 1812 as the two colonial wars between the US and Great Britain. What they don't get is that the US civil war was a British proxy war using the feudal south to fight the growing, threatening, wealth-building industrial north. You will recall that the Brits bought fluffy cotton (and rice) from the American south. If you visit the fine historical homes in Charleston, SC, you will find what the southern feudal Lords purchased finished goods from the Brits, furniture, finished luxury textiles, glass and silver among other amenities. Does this sound familiar? Cheap farm goods sold, finished products purchased, including finished textiles. So who needed the American plantation/farm goods? The Brits. Who fought to maintain this feudal system based on deadly, corrupt slavery that benefitted the Brits? Poor southerners did, because most of the south was extremely poor, including the white people. Does this strategy sound familiar? It should.
I rant thus because Alex includes the Brits as dastardly deed doers in our current mess. Thank you, Alex, for your accuracy. When someone says that the Americans ordered the arrogant, corrupt Boris Johnson to talk Zelensky into scotching the Istanbul peace talks, my blood boils. No one had to guide Bojo in the eugenics exercise that is Ukraine. Crown Agents has long had an office in Kiev. British elites are involved first hand in destroying Ukraine and probably enjoying every minute of it.
As an aside and somewhat off topic, I wrote a piece at propagandagirl.substack.com about mean girl Ursula von der Leyen in which I note her ancestry. She is the descendant of a very successful slave trader from the aforementioned American south. I have come to the conclusion that people and their offspring really don't change much over time.
Thank you - great stuff, and fully agreed!
The skill and manipulation of players, and the media, is high level: the propaganda is extremely well thought out, planned out, and years in the making. Decades, and perhaps a century or so in its' current orientation. The fact that the UK/The Firm - City of London is rarely mentioned, but the Muscle is, shows the craftiness level. 10/10.
Hubris, arrogance by another name, and reliance on ridiculous models will aid us in maintaining freedom. Everyone has a name and address, even the people who move in the shadows.
100%!!! I too (as a Canadian!) find myself reminding people of the UK/City of London's role in everything. But alas people just see the muscle.
Thankfully you didn’t mention who really destroyed Nordstream, but if America wants to take credit that’s fine by HMG.
Thank you Alex, for this very interesting comparison between the UK and our government. This closer look at our alliance with England--the Monarchy of England, the Bank of London, the UK political system and the Welcome Trust--is one of the benefits of the COVID years. My eyes have been opened and I am grateful to you and many others who have helped me to see what I couldn't or wouldn't see before. Only, what you are laying before me is even more damning than what I've previously learned. So England has never given up on colonizing us and now it appears we are just a chip off the old block of Britannia. Unfortunately THEIR plan is so advanced that they cannot stay hidden now and are moving very quickly to cinch the deal. Yes, I just read a Brownstone article on election fraud and it appears there is NO chance that the 2024 election could be a fair contest. It is far worse than what I had thought--but where does that leave Kennedy? Of course, the MSM will not give us any truth about how he is polling. Of course we are told Kamala is polling better than Trump and Kennedy isn't mentioned. He certainly can will--if the elections were fair. He is the only candidate for a sane electorate, He is the only candidate who claims he will end the corporate capture of all the agencies that were meant to protect us but have sold out decades ago. He has the legal know how, the intelligence and the intention and integrity to make it happen. You can say that he will never make it to the White House, but he will shine a light on values that Americans are remembering are worth having and will help us reclaim a passion for our Constitutional Rights that Biden has betrayed. Most importantly, he is serious about UNITING the American people--Healing the Divide. This is critical for being able to see beyond the hypnotic spell that has us all at each other's throats. There are many other wonderful things about this man but I don't have time to lay it out for you right now. Anyone who really wants to know why Kennedy is the only candidate for these really difficult times should watch WhoisBobbyKennedy.com He is the best candidate I have seen in my 76 years on this planet.
Thank you!
I'll echo that: Robert Kennedy Jr certainly can win, and please don't anyone fall for the false narrative that he can't. Support for him is surging every day, despite the fact that the mainstream media either smears or ignores him, as dictated by their primary advertisers – namely big pharma – which want to protect their corrupt hegemony.
Those corrupt entities know that Kennedy is the only candidate who has the expertise, independence, and determination to clean up the corrupt morass between corporations and government and actually DRAIN THE SWAMP, which he will begin doing on Day One of his presidency.
He will unite the country and heal the existential divide that the two establishment parties foster with their name-calling and vitriol. (That fostering of division, by the way, is a technique to distract and conceal the reality that they're funded by the same Big Everything entities and are thus controlled by them. RFK Jr is not.)
The unbiased Zogby polls, which have far greater accuracy and include who will actually be on the ballots, with RFK Jr listed by name and not just 'other,' all indicate that these types of assertions that he can't win are false. Quite to the contrary – Kennedy wins in every scenario.
I encourage everyone to put Netflix aside for a couple of evenings and listen to what he actually says, not what others say about him, in his many podcasts, interviews, and videos. www.kennedy24.com is a good place to start. You'll be blown away by his character, intellect and heart, and the way he tackles things that matter most. His focus is unity, not division, and people, not politics, and he is what we so desperately need.
US is a Republic In Name Only.
Thank you for this very clear article.
A Most Important Article!
And you have to understand that this "slow dying" was known and has been planned well in advance. The exact same points covered here do also apply to the political system in Spain. We even have a name for the rule of "the party inner clique": it's the "partidocracia" - the direct translation to English ("Partycracy") sounds a little weird, though.
The current system in Spain, dating from 1978, was modelled on the one of the German Federal Republic, and was imposed onto the Spanish population thanks to the usual suspects: CIA & bought politicians, with the help of the German SPD. So you have at the very least 2 countries where this system has been imposed by force, in order to secure its control by external actors. And it is coming back to roost to the USA, like the proverbial chicken.
Thank you Celiberian - I truly appreciate the feedback. I think it's the same model, more or less, wherever they can get away with it.

I just signed it out of my local library 👍🏻🥰
So did I, kept renewing it for about 6 months - it really is that long - they didn't do pictures in history books back in the 1960s,
Thank you. I was wondering were we could find this.
What cannot continue will not continue. The veil is lifting and the lies exposed. One way or another humanity will triumph.
Every day I find out something interesting about our British system, the latest being our so called Sir Kier is not even called Starmer, so who is this mystery man (apart from a giant pain in the ass)?
Has there ever been a "Democratic Empire"?
The Persians may have gotten closest, but it certainly wasn't 'democracy as we know it'.
The naivete in thinking America could be the first... :shakes head:.
