“Make sure those you follow talk about the surveillance, because everyone who is in the game knows. Make them either damage the machine by saying it, or reveal they are part of it by staying silent. Demanding our side talk about the surveillance is really the closest to a Xanatos gambit our side has.”

Government agencies and private security companies in the U.S. have found a cost-effective way to engage in warrantless surveillance of individuals, groups and places: a pay-for-access web tool called Fog Reveal, which buys geolocation data on everyone and then documents their “patterns of life” – where and when people work and live, with whom they associate and what places they visit. They are moving the intelligence apparatus into the private sector to get around limits in government activity. In truth, given the need for banking, and communications, and electricity, and utilities, you see how if intelligence can take them over in the private sector, it can do anything to you.
I remember receiving the safety brief about being situationally aware of the East German secret police, known as the Stasi. They would be shadowing us and ensuring there was no conversational contact with East Germans, beyond purchasing goods. The Stasi was part of a brutal regime that imprisoned its political opposition; many of whom were never to be heard from again. What I witnessed as a young 24-year-old Army officer was something I never wanted my country to experience.
Sadly, what I did see then has now infiltrated our country.
Archival material of Cabal? I’ve told you the Cabal uses the phrase “Be Careful.” During my shock and awe phase, I got it in comments from IPs overseas, and emails, and it was clearly designed to put me in a passive, fearful mode. Of course being me, I immediately sperged out, began sleeping with my clothes on and multiple guns around me thinking somebody was about to come through my door, as I began throwing blows in all directions online and trying to expose everything to destroy this thing and be rid of it. My amygdala does not do careful when it revs up, unfortunately. I saw the phrase again, and it is here somewhere in the archives, when a friend of John Lang was filming a video about his murder outside his home. He spotted a couple of glowies in a blacked out sedan watching him film, approached them, and the one would only say to him, a few times, “Be Careful,” emphasizing each word, before they drove off. I realized I might be looking at a Cabal-wide motto of some sort. So it was with interest I saw this next image, on this RT.com article, which is a montage of pictures of protests of President Kennedy during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Imagine being President Kennedy, having received that warning through numerous means, and pulling up to a stop and seeing this – and you know exactly what it is, but you also know there is no use even acknowledging the woman holding the sign, or looking into who she is, because her cover as a regular citizen would almost certainly be unbreakable. Ask yourself if, in those days of Communist-hate, as the Soviets put missiles off our shore as a provocation, if that is a protest sign which would arise spontaneously in that period. This thing has been around, sitting in plain sight for a long time:
Peter Strzok says to MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace: “9/11 is nothing compared to January 6.” I have said the Secret Society views 9/11 differently from us, because they know their organization either allowed, or more probably, actually did it, and they have no problem with that. For most Americans, destroying the organization behind that would be a good hill to die on. But not for them. They will actually help that organization, and serve it loyally. The only way you can contextualize that is, they do not view the people killed as their own, because they are a part of something different. Here, there is no way Strzok can view 9/11 like a regular American, if he can say that. Moreover, it shows, he cannot imagine how a regular American would think, or the innate revulsion they would feel on hearing him say that. Because he said that, expecting you would not only not be revolted, you would adopt that view of his.

Kash suggests that after we win midterms, Durham could deliver bombshell testimony on Capitol Hill.
Let’s face it, folks, Durham is either not a very good prosecutor–and his reputation has been w-a-a-a-y overhyped–or he is compromised in some way. Covid shutdowns and delays cannot explain all his missteps and failures to go after FBI brass for rank corruption.
It’s ironic that Durham is ripping FBI agents and analysts he’s called to the witness stand for their own investigative failures. It’s clear Durham is just going to scold them & not prosecute them or their 7th Floor bosses for their malfeasance.
Durham has let Comey, McCabe & Strzok all off the hook for epic abuses of power. In effect, his investigation of their corrupt investigation is itself a whitewash. Durham’s covering for the bad guys. Now, who will investigate the investigator of the investigation?
DEVELOPING: Congressional Republicans want to know if the FBI gave known dossier fabricator and drunkard Igor Danchenko access to classified info–or granted him any kind of security clearance–after they made him a paid informant and involved him in dozens of C.I. investigations and used him as a source for US intel reports re Russia & Ukraine. Danchenko is not a US citizen and has lived in the DC area allegedly on a fraudulent visa. In 2009, the FBI had opened a counterespionage investigation targeting Danchenko as a Russian spy. In 2013, moreover, federal authorities arrested him on drunk & disorderly charges in a park in Maryland. He’d also been arrested on an earlier drunk-and-disorderly charge in Virginia, according to additional police records i have obtained
BREAKING: Special Counsel John Durham suggested in court hearings that anti-Trump dossier fabricator Igor Danchenko may have been living in the US illegally on a fraudulent visa and that his FBI handlers knew there were legal problems with his immigration status and yet still made him a paid informant.
As RealClearInvestigations first reported, Danchenko pretended to work for a Vienna, Va., tech contractor while collecting checks from London for his work on the Hillary Clinton campaign in 2016.
RCI also first reported that Danchenko was arrested by the feds in Maryland two years after the FBI had investigated him as a suspected Russian spy, and yet then-US attorney Rod Rosenstein allowed him to travel to Russia before his trial
BREAKING: The FBI has sought intelligence assistance from known fabricator and drunkard Igor Danchenko in its assessment of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, even though Danchenko has no sources inside the Kremlin.
As a paid FBI informant, Danchenko, who was subcontracted to the 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign as an anti-Trump dossier dirt-digger, has contributed to more than two dozen FBI investigations and some 40 US intelligence reports, raising alarms that other investigations are corrupted and other intelligence assessments have been tainted.
Congressional Republicans tell me they plan to probe whether the FBI also relied on serial liar Danchenko for intelligence assessments regarding Hunter Biden and Ukraine in 2020 and regarding Trump and Ukraine in 2019
Paul Sperry:
BREAKING: Jan 6 Committee misled viewers at Thursday’s hearing when it described anti-Trump “whistleblower” witness Anika Collier Navaroli as simply a “former Twitter employee,” when in fact she’s a longtime Democratic activist tied to Obama appointee Van Jones. Navaroli worked for Jones’ radical Color of Change org as a senior manager, as well as Occupy Wall Street.
Color of Change advocates for “building Black power,” “ending money bail,” defunding police, closing prisons & releasing Black criminals from prison.
And Navaroli was far from just a Twitter “employee.” She was a policy official on the team designing Twitter’s “content-moderation rules,” which booted Trump and helped lead to the mass censorship of his supporters and conservatives ahead of the elections

Delusion. Yesterday, on CNN, they had on Ret. Brig. Gen. Steve Anderson who discussed what was going on in Ukraine and all the weapon systems in play and could come into play.
He said that we need “contractors” to go into Ukraine and operate anti-aircraft, anti-missile systems! And then he says, “we need to use these missiles even to drive the Russians from Crimea”!—What?!?!
Yeah, —drive the Russians from Crimea—a Brig. Gen. who fought in Afghanistan!
The guy is delusional. I mean other than Col. McGregor–all these retired generals, the generals that worked under Trump—are delusional maniacs! And we expect them to correct the 2020 Coup? The absolute lunacy of our generals is glaringly incredulous. The generals in the US Military are lunatics. They are mad. America has become an insane asylum!

Going forward we are going to see doctors, judges, generals, senators, presidents, cabinet members, fathers, mothers, etc. going hogwild. The Empire is dying.
For those not following British politics, a comment thread on Philip Greenspun’s blog shed some light on the problems of the Truss government.
The Truss government, and apparently Liz Truss herself, are both really strange by historical British standards, for a large number of reasons. But one big mystery concerns a budget she proposed after Elizabeth II’s funeral, which was not on the normal schedule for budgets. There was a huge backlash, particularly in the financial markets, and Truss wound up firing her finance minister and substituting a budget that than did the opposite. Essentially this makes her in charge of the UK government only on paper, but in cabal-world that applies to all heads of government at least in developed countries, its only more obvious in this case.
Here is the blog post and the relevant comment is by commentator “Federico” four comments down. Most of the post, and comments, is about corporate tax rates and those parts can be skipped:
https://philip.greenspun.com/blog/2022/10/15/who-can-explain-financial-markets-hatred-for-the-new-uk-government/#comments
This is the key point. The budget provided for uncapped energy subsidies to consumers. This was done because the sanctions on Russia, and blowing up their pipelines, would otherwise drive up energy bills to British consumers. This was the only reason to rush a budget out in the first place, and also what drove up British government debt to unsustainable levels. The entire rest of the budget was unremarkable and in line with what British and other western financial policy since the 1980s, as the original post makes clear.
Truss was over the top anti-Russian in her statements about Russia and Ukraine, in her last job as foreign secretary. She held high level positions and finally PM, though she comes across as sort of a bimbo in public, much like Kamala Harris. Then suddenly she got into political trouble. It was a mystery why this developed, and it was evidently because she tried to shield the British public from the effects of the sanctions. She didn’t lift the sanctions, in fact she supported them in an over the top way, but as soon as she tried to shield the British public from their effects, she ran into problems, after an effortless rise.
I am now wondering again about developments in France, since Macron has both been notably less hawkish on Russia in his public comments, and his government has also taken steps to shield French consumers from the effects of the sanctions.
That “huge backlash” to the budget, was mostly generated by the media

Meghan Markle
Markle’s father, Thomas Markle Sr. (born 1944),[7] is an Emmy Award winning television lighting director and director of photography.
It would be interesting to see statistics on how many famous people are not related to anyone you can find on Wikipedia. In the meritocracy we’re supposed to live in, that should be almost everyone.
After her junior year, she secured an internship as a junior press officer at the American embassy in Buenos Aires, with the help of her uncle Michael Markle,[27] and considered a political career.[28][29] However, she did not score high enough in the Foreign Service Officer Test to proceed further with the US State Department,[30] and returned to NU.
Not just one, but two relatives with good connections. Most of us have zero, at least at that level. (And it’s close relatives with good connections that she could actually use; an acquaintance with decent connections might not be that interested in helping you, or might not even be able to, if the connections are in the wrong field for someone with your skill set.)
She was paid $187,000 for her role in Remember Me and $171,429 for her role in the short film The Candidate.[39] In July 2011, she joined the cast of the USA Network show Suits through to late 2017 and the seventh season. Her character, Rachel Zane, began as a paralegal and eventually became an attorney.[40] While working on Suits, she lived for nine months each year in Toronto.[41][42] Fortune magazine estimated that she was paid $50,000 per episode, amounting to an equivalent annual salary of $450,000.[43]
More of the fake economics that AC likes to talk about. There are more than enough talented and attractive actresses who would beg to do the same work for a lot less money.
And beg they do. On their knees.
That picture you posted that says “President Kennedy, Be Careful” was chilling. I agree that it’s very clear “be careful” is some kind of slogan or motto for these intelligence types and to see it that far back aimed at the President…it’s like we all KNOW something has been wrong with this country for a long time but mostly because we see the RESULTS of that wrongness and there is no normal explanation such as incompetence or coincidence. It’s like observing a black hole, you know it’s there because of it’s effect on things around it but you can never actually see that dark space. Seeing that sign was like seeing the black hole in our society.
Yeah, apparently we have others on this site who have gotten the same message as well. It would be interesting to know the origin of the phrase, which obviously has been floating through their ecosystem for a while.
India To Start Producing Upgraded Version Of Iconic Russian Kalashnikov Assault Rifles
https://greatgameindia.com/india-upgraded-kalashnikov/
Thanks for noting that, Farce. I haven’t been keeping up with recent developments.
Like many other countries, India adopted Kalashnikov pattern rifles some years ago. They’re cheap, reliable, easy to make, and accurate enough for the job. India’s military weapons designers updated the original 1947 design, as Valmet in Finland and Kalashnikov itself did over the years, adding a nice forward-cocking system and a three-round burst fire control group adapted from the FAL, which the new INSAS rifle was to replace. There are quite a few minor detail improvements that should have made the INSAS a superior AK variant.
Alas, while the engineering of the INSAS was good, actually making it was a problem. Note that even Ethiopia was able to make their own AKs, yet India failed. The factory was owned and managed by the very generals and politicians who had authorized it, quality control was nonexistent, Indian troops confronting Chinese in their ongoing border disputes died due to its unreliability, and it became a political hot potato. The cronyism and corruption were too deeply entrenched to be eradicated, and about ten years ago they started buying Russian-made AKs that actually worked.
Some surfing shows that the Indians now have a “joint venture” factory in Uttar Pradesh, and the new “Indian” AK-203s are 95% Russian-made components, with Indians assembling them under Russian supervision and quality control. Supposedly they’re supposed to be 100% Indian-made in a few years. Perhaps the new factory won’t go the way the INSAS venture did, but excuse me if I express a smidgen of cynicism there.
I’m getting sick of all this waiting for the storm:
Could not agree more.
when trials are held in your nation’s capitol city …. trials in which any facts that come up don’t matter at all and I mean ANY facts… (real 2017-ish headline: “Judge orders Epstein victim to destroy her evidence”) trials in which idiots and small children can predict the outcome with 100% certainty before the trial begins…. trials in which the regime’s enemies are brought down by the endless swarms of mendacious parasites and its friends are set free with heartfelt apologies from the “judges”…. (and that’s before you factor in the racial aspect and the regime’s “justice” arm and its “Hard-nosed Mad-dog Prosecutor” losing the trial on purpose)….
well then boys, you either live in a banana republic or a police state. maybe both! are our brave hero cops using cattle prods on women and old people yet? but you damn sure don’t live in America any more.
I keep coming back to the trailers for Tom Cruise’s new Mission Impossible movie. “M.I. XXIX – this time it’s personal!”, or some such. Now Tom Cruise is most assuredly a hollywood freakshow bucket of crazy, but over the years I’ve come to admire both a) his professionalism and commitment to excellence because he, almost alone in Hollywood, he seems to think his fans deserve his very best for their moviegoing dollars and b) his respect for his audience – a respect that {seems to} include a determination that is almost alone in Hollywood, that maybe all the moviegoing rubes aren’t complete fuckin idiots. In this latest blockbuster, he’s got his bad guy saying this (which might sound juuuuuust a tad familiar to AC readers): “This is our chance to control the truth. The concepts of Right and Wrong. For everyone! For centuries to come! You’re fighting to save an ideal that doesn’t exist – never did.” I’m seriously beginning to think the only Elite out there not named Trump or Carlson who’s trying to warn us might be Tom Frickin Cruise the movie star. of course it’s much too late – see ‘banana republic or police state justice system’ or “Bannon asks for house arrest, because that’s what we’re reduced to’ but still.
How bout that drunk Mel Gibson?
I watched a clip from an interview with Tom Cruise, he called out vaccine injuries to children (regular not Clot shot)
The female interviewer tried shutting him down and iirc he literally called her retarded and Ignorant,
I don’t think I’ve seen a bad movie by him either.
Im using the extra time like a delay for a test. More prep, more pray.
If you have been waiting for the bus for 2hrs, but could have walked it in 1.5hrs, start walking.

There comes a point that you realise, you must proceed on the basis, there is no spoon / bus.
