I know this is very long, but I couldn't find away to shorten it.

Can RFK Jr. Defeat the Media?
I wrote him in in 2020 to send a message. This time it's serious.
Kevin Barrett • April 9, 2023

I like Barret. Sometimes he's whackadoodle, but long before anyone else he was spot-on about the USA supporting radical jihadists in Syria. I gotta love him for that.

Quote:

J. Michael Springmann and I opened this week’s False Flag Weekly News by plugging RFK Jr.’s newly-minted presidential campaign. We noted that he is going to have to run against the media, like Donald Trump did in 2016.

Running against the media in politics is like betting against the house in gambling: The odds are against you, to say the least. I know that from personal experience, having run for Congress on a 9/11 truth platform in 2008. But it isn’t just me: There are countless examples of campaigns whose outcomes were determined by the media’s slanted coverage. (To cite an extreme example, big media’s decision to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story likely prevented Donald Trump from being re-elected in 2020.)

An obvious example that everyone knows about but the M$M prefers to bury it.

Quote:

The power of the mainstream media is such that almost no serious politicians—people whose goal is to win, not just to make a statement or call attention to neglected issues, as I did in my 2008 run—ever dare to take any positions or voice any sentiments outside of the media’s Overton Window of acceptability. The major exception to that rule, of course, is Donald Trump, who defeated the media in his 2016 run for president.

Trump’s method was deceptively simple: Keep saying outrageous things that the media won’t be able to resist deriding and deploring and generally calling attention to. Lo and behold, the hoary bromide “any publicity is good publicity” came true. Trump recognized that a yu-uge tranche of voters was angry and alienated and ready to support someone the Establishment obviously hated. And since he had a Twitter account at hand to tweet his side of the story, Trump wasn’t handicapped like pre-social-media politicians, who had depended almost entirely on corporate-owned one-to-many media to communicate with voters. What’s more, turning his rallies into countercultural festivals allowed him to speak directly to throngs of people. Between Twitter and the Trump rallies, it became obvious that the media’s most important way of suppressing outside-the-Overton-Window candidacies—fostering the impression that only a tiny, widely-hated minority of fringe conspiracy theorists would ever say or believe such things—wasn’t going to work.

Trump composed his triumphant 2016 electoral symphony in the key of invective, scapegoating, demonization, and hatred (or “righteous anger” if you prefer, though not all of it was righteous). His needling and insults, which included allusions to the alleged complicity of George W. Bush in 9/11 and Ted Cruz’s father in the JFK assassination, were refreshing to those of us who have discovered the almost unimaginable corruption of the American political establishment. And his harsh treatment of Hillary Clinton, who on October 9th 2016 was forced to debate Trump with three of her husband Bill’s sexual assault victims glaring at her from the audience, and who cannot have been pleased by the tens of thousands of people at Trump rallies chanting “lock her up,” may not have been chivalrous, but it was effective.

Trump did not keep his promises. He didn’t lock her up. And he didn’t drain the swamp—he stocked it. His administration offered no meaningful change, except for completely surrendering to the ultra-extremist Zionist agenda of Bibi Netanyahu. Trump failed to withdraw from Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan. He didn’t terminate NATO, but instead armed Ukraine to the teeth and set the stage for the current war on Russia. His administration nearly started World War III three times: once by bombing Syria, once by murdering Gen.

The far left and far right agree on Donald Trump’s foreign policy legacy. They’re both wrong.

The emerging revisionist history says Trump was an “anti-imperial” president. Don’t believe it.

By Zack Beauchamp Apr 14, 2023

Historically, American warmongering has been very different from what dominated in either the 2000s or the liberal interventionist 1990s. For centuries, American leaders have demonstrated a willingness to inflict violence on foreigners not in pursuit of any universal ideology, but a narrow vision of expanding the country’s territory and advancing the national interest. Such purportedly “realist” thinking is behind many of America’s most infamous atrocities, from Native genocide to the intentional slaughter of civilians during the Vietnam War.

It is also directly echoed by Trump in both word and deed. This is a president who pardoned convicted war criminals, assassinated Iran’s top general, and deployed troops to seize Syria’s oil deposits — openly admitting he wanted to hand them over to ExxonMobil. A second term promises more of the same: He has already asked advisers for “battle plans” to invade Mexico in an effort to combat drug cartels.

No new (Unconstitutional or otherwise) wars for the first (and only) time since GWB was President during Trump's Presidency.

All this is right here is more proof that I am exactly who I say I am, dude. I'm genuine. I'm the real deal. I posted this personal medical information about myself knowing that you'd be reading it, just like you obsessively read everything I post in the Garden while you're jerking off thinking about me.

I don't go around telling everybody I'm perfect like you do, because I know my flaws and I admit my mistakes. Not just to myself, but to other people too.

You're a fucking douchebag, dude. Even after all the bullshit we've flung at each other, I'd tell you I was sorry for you if you were ever man enough to tell anybody that you fucked up pretty big. And I certainly wouldn't be bringing up your medical issues in threads outside of the Garden like you've done in the past with Sigs and her problems and with my dentures when I got them.


But back on the topic of being the genuine and the real deal...

I've known where you live for years. Why haven't you figured out where I live yet?

I'd really like to meet you.

6ix, you can't believe/understand/accept that your troubles/failures/disappointments/diseases are your own fault.

Because you can't understand, 6ix, Trumptards, or the ancient equivalent amongst the goatherds of Israel:

1) invented "Jesus" and "God" to forgive them for their wrong-headed decisions

2) invented "Satan" to explain away their self-caused problems/addictions/diseases/crimes

3) blame "George Soros and the Jews" or "The Powers That Be" or "Democrats" to remove blame from themselves and transfer it to others who are not supernatural like "Satan" and therefore can be attacked in the physical world.

6ix, reality will NEVER bend to the above three nonsensical beliefs you Trumptards hold in your minds and have built your whole lives on. You Trumptards have behaved atrociously, foolishly and, much delayed because you live in America where people like you are partially protected from your own nonsense, reality is now gonna screw you back for what you did wrong, wrong, wrong.

In 2017, Trump became the first US president to order an attack on the Syrian government, bombing an airfield in retaliation for chemical weapons strikes, something Obama famously refused to do. In 2018, he pulled out of the Iran nuclear deal and bombed Syrian government positions again. In 2019, Trump approved airstrikes on Iranian soil, only to call the planes back literally while they were in the air. And in 2020, he had General Qassem Soleimani, the commander of Iran’s elite Quds force, assassinated while the Iranian leader was near the Baghdad airport.

Similarly, Trump dramatically increased US airstrikes on Islamist groups in Somalia over Obama levels, and approved the sale of unguided “dumb” bombs to Saudi Arabia for use in Yemen (something the Obama administration blocked). Though Trump frequently stated his opposition to the war in Afghanistan, and eventually did negotiate a withdrawal agreement, he began his presidency by escalating it — sending 3,000 new troops to fight the Taliban, a more than 25 percent increase from the pre-Trump presence. He also openly bragged about relaxing rules of engagement for bombings in Afghanistan, a policy that nearly doubled civilian casualties per year over the Bush- and Obama-era average.

In 2017, before he became friends with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, Trump nearly started a war with his country — deploying an “armada” (his words) to the region, and threatening the North with “fire and fury like the world has never seen” in the midst of mounting tensions surrounding Pyongyang’s nuclear program.

In 2018, Trump threatened to invade Venezuela to topple leftist dictator Nicolás Maduro. In 2019, he launched a broad-based sanction policy explicitly designed to collapse the Maduro government — an open regime change operation.

"Joe Biden Is A Criminal" Says Ex-Obama Whistleblower Alleging Family "Kickback Scheme"

Friday, Apr 14, 2023 - 06:05 AM

A former staffer who worked in the Obama administration is blowing the whistle on the Bidens - and has accused President Biden of being involved in a "kickback scheme" directly related to his son Hunter's overseas business dealings.

Mike McCormick, a stenographer in the White House for 15 years who worked with Biden from 2011 to 2017, told Fox & Friends First that the FBI has completely ignored him despite his willingness to testify under oath before the grand jury investigating Hunter.



According to the poor computer repair guy who repaired Hunter's laptop, it was the same story with him: he tried to turn it over to the FBI, but their only interest in it was burying it.

Almost Two Thirds Of Democrats Want To See Challengers Run Against Biden; New Poll Finds
A new Rasmussen poll has revealed that among Democratic voters, almost two thirds would like to see challengers run against Joe Biden, with less than 40 percent believing Biden should seek a second term.
The survey reveals that only 39 percent of voters believe Biden should run for reelection as president in 2024, while 48 percent are of the opinion that Biden shouldn’t run again.


I guess 13 pct aren't sure
