Matthew Hoh Interview (Video): An Objective Look at U.S. Foreign Policy

Posted on February 12, 2023 by johnrachel

Most recently and most admirably, Matthew Hoh ran this past election cycle for Senate, representing North Carolina. His bid was unsuccessful for the usual reasons, chiefly among them big money in politics. But I suspect there was another decisive factor. … Continue reading →

Posted on February 8, 2023 by johnrachel

As a former Lt. Colonel in the Air Force, William J. Astore knows the military. He’s seen how the closed loop of the DOD and the commercial defense industries has exponentially grown and now disproportionately determines the priorities and direction of America’s dealings with the rest of the world.

Looking For Change in All the Wrong Places

Posted on June 15, 2021 by John Rachel

According to a recent report, 62% of our fine citizens, judge that the $715 billion official 2022 defense budget proposed by President Biden, is right on target. In fact, 17% of those polled think we need to spend more. I will credit the Deep State and MIC with a true victory here. The massive psyops brainwashing of the American public has been a resounding success! Continue reading →

Book Review: “The Plot To Scapegoat Russia: How the CIA and the Deep State Have Conspired to Vilify Putin”

Posted on September 9, 2019 by johnrachel

It takes enormous courage to write a book like this, which goes completely against the narrative promoted by America’s foreign policy and military establishments. Courage because now any defense of Putin and Russia as actors on the world stage will invite personal vilification, marginalization, attacks on character and integrity, aspersions about disloyalty and lack of patriotic commitment, allegations of treachery and even sedition. Continue reading →

No Negotiating With Terrorists

Posted on March 10, 2017 by johnrachel

U.S. terrorism expresses itself internationally as wars, regime changes, special operations missions, economic manipulation and interference, cyber and propaganda warfare, and is implemented with the forward-basing of troops and often outright military occupation of 140 countries. While we can find fault in the workings of the loose collective of institutions which make up what is now called the Deep State, much direct blame for our terrorism can be assigned to the CIA. We now have little choice. The CIA and all traces of it must be eradicated. “No negotiating with terrorists!” Continue reading →

Line of Succession: Just when you thought it was safe to . . .

Posted on February 2, 2017 by johnrachel

Trump is an easy target. But impeaching him accomplishes nothing. It merely sets up month-after-month, year-after-year of more impeachment hearings. What Trump represents will not go away just because he does. Regime change in Congress is the only option and the only viable place to focus our time, energy and creativity. There are 33 Senate seats and 435 House seats up for grabs in the 2018 election. That’s where our power resides. That’s how we mount a real revolution and turn back the tide of corporate totalitarianism. Continue reading →

Deep-State Doppelgängers

Posted on August 31, 2016 by johnrachel

I now have proof that voting is a complete waste of time. Whoever is elected will immediately be disappeared by the Deep State security agencies and replaced with a robot which you and I will not be able to detect is a fake. Then this deep-state controlled doppelgänger will do and say what it is programmed to. You and I will never be the wiser. Don’t believe it? Ha! I got this from my reliable “Washington insider” contact, a Latvian taxi driver from Youngstown, Ohio who I talk to frequently on citizens band radio. So November 8th, save yourself the trouble. Just stay home and watch the new season of Dancing With The Stars. Continue reading →
