Putin, Biden, and the Deep State

February 17, 2024

2024 IS BARELY six weeks old and it’s already proving to be one for the history books.

This week, Alexei Navalny, described as the leader of the political opposition to Vladimir Putin, suddenly died in prison. His death has been widely condemned in the West as another example of Putin’s barbarity, with politicians on the left and right promising to hold the Russian president accountable. But what would Putin gain by turning Navalny into a martyr? It seems awfully coincidental that his death coincided with debate in the U.S. Congress over a $90 billion military aid package, two-thirds of which would go to Ukraine.

Meanwhile, the deep state is making it clear that it doesn’t think Joe Biden can beat Donald Trump in a rematch of the 2020 election. Not only is Biden’s cognitive decline obvious to anyone with eyes to see, the corporate media’s coverage is starting to acknowledge it—a sign that they’re laying the groundwork for another candidate to step in. Whether it’s Harris, Newsom, or Michelle Obama, we don’t know, but we’d be surprised if Biden is the Democratic nominee in November.

Just remember, while politics is important, it’s not as important as the Great Commission. Stay focused on the priorities!

Also: Avian flu continues to spread to mammals. We’re keeping a close eye on the World Health Organization and what it will decide to designate the fulfillment of its “Disease X” prophecy.

It's About Control

May 4, 2024

WHEN THE U.S. government does nearly anything with bipartisan support, you can bet there’s a deep state agenda behind the scenes. We discuss H.R. 6090, the Antisemitism Awareness Act, which passed the House of Representatives by a vote of 320–91. 21 Republicans voted against it, but 133 Democrats crossed the aisle to support the bill which now is in the hands of the Senate. We support Israel and its people. Anyone who’s followed us for any length of time knows that. In fact, by the time you hear this program we will likely be in Israel for the fourth time. But this bill, which purports to enforce a prohibition on “forms of discrimination rooted in antisemitism as vigorously as against all other forms of discrimination” is an unconstitutional infringement of our First Amendment right to speak freely. The House bill adopts a definition of antisemitism according to the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance: Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of antisemitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities. Antisemitism, and all forms of discrimination based on race, color, or creed, is wrong. But that definition is so broad that it can and will be used to clamp down free speech. Examples of antisemitism given by the IHRA are ideas and policies we reject, but the Constitution guarantees the right of Americans to say things that others find repugnant or hateful. It should not be illegal to criticize Israel collectively or any individual Jewish person. If passed, this bill could be used as a legal hammer to punish anyone who does. In short, the bill isn’t about protecting anyone, it’s about control. But in 21st century America, banning “hate speech” trumps protecting free speech. A majority in the House of Representatives have violated their oath of office by voting “aye” on H.R. 6090. The same is true of the so-called TikTok ban that passed Congress in April. It was justified as a way to protect Americans from Chinese surveillance, but what it actually does is give the president power to shut down any website he or she declares to be under foreign influence. As with the antisemitism bill, it’s not about protection—it’s about control. Sharon shares her takeaways from a new book by Annie Jacobsen titled Nuclear War: A Scenario. Jacobsen is a gifted writer who tackles some very important topics, and her latest is a sobering look at a plausible sequence of events triggered by a nuclear missile launch at the United States by North Korea.

Party Like It's 1939

PRO-HAMAS PROTESTS on college campuses around the United States this week began to evoke images of 1930s Germany. Students forming a human chain to force Jewish students off the Columbia University campus was eerily reminiscent of Brownshirts blocking access by Jewish students to the University of Vienna. The so-called “anti-fascists” are, in fact, what they claim to hate. Here’s a link to video of Columbia student Khymani James saying “Zionists don’t deserve to live”: https://http://www.dailymail.co.uk/video/news/video-3176089/video-columbia-encampment-leader-says-zionists-dont-deserve-live.html Who’s paying for the protesters’ matching tents? It appears that the anti-Israel protests are backed by George Soros (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/anti-israel-protests-nationwide-fueled-left-wing-groups-backed-soros-dark-money)—but if you say so, you might be labeled anti-Semitic because Soros is nominally Jewish. On the West Coast, a pro-Hamas encampment at the University of Washington in Seattle was postponed because it was “too white.” Yes, factions of anti-Semitic students are squabbling over who gets credit for demonizing Jews. Also: Problems with the Gaza relief pier; asteroid Apophis; US Congress to vote on stablecoin bill, bringing us a step closer to Central Bank Digital Currency; and the Deep State tires of the Biden Shuffle.

"They Wouldn't Just Eat Any White Men That Fell From the Sky"

April 20, 2024

THOSE IMMORTAL WORDS were spoken by Michael Kabuni, a political science lecturer at the University of Papua New Guinea, responding to a false claim by President Biden that his uncle had been eaten by cannibals after being shot down in WWII. Biden told the story twice Wednesday, in Scranton and then again in Pittsburgh. As it happens, his uncle, Ambrose J. Finnegan, was not a pilot and hadn’t been shot down; the plane on which he was flying lost power in both engines and ditched in the ocean with only the flight engineer surviving the crash. Needless to say, the people of Papua New Guinea are not thrilled about being characterized as cannibals. We also discuss the tense situation in the Middle East. Since last week’s program, Iran hit Israel with a wave of drones and cruise missiles, nearly all of which were intercepted. There was only one reported casualty, a 7-year-old Bedouin girl. In response, Israel on Friday reportedly destroyed the radar unit that protects Iran’s Natanz nuclear plant. Then, Friday night, reports from Iraq indicate that somebody struck a base south of Baghdad used by Iran-backed Shia militias. Israel and the US have denied responsibility, but the Shias in Iraq blame Israel nonetheless. We discuss who may have attacked the Shias there and why.
