The Spies Among Us

As you may have read, casino mogul and Trump supporter Sheldon Adelson apparently helped the USA spy on Julian Assange:

You can find additional discussion about this from Assange's partner here:

Perhaps not surprisingly, an FBI asset recently said that all Mossad spies should be kicked out of the USA:

I have little idea of what's going on here, but I have to wonder why the US government apparently is using such private individuals to conduct its surveillance.

This more or less reminds me of the kind of crap the CIA was involved in which led to the murders of JFK and RFK.

And why would Adelson, of all people, care what Assange was doing? I can think of only one possible thing which would affect his beloved Israel, and you can read about it here. Be sure to read the note, too:

Our Two Worst Failures

Looking back on what we've learned so far from COVID-19, I think these were our two worst failures:

(1) A lack of common sense and discipline. Here is an example of what we DIDN'T do, but should have:

(2) A lack of foresight into what a shutdown would do to our food supply and other supply chains:

It wouldn't have taken any "high tech" to prevent these failures. And I really don't think high tech is going to save us now. Do you?

Some are claiming Trump plans to use the military to force us to be vaccinated. I doubt he'll get the chance, but unless something changes his successor probably will do something like this:

Martial law isn't the answer either - not in this country, anyway.

Visualizing The Global Food Crisis

Here is a graphic showing places around the world where people don't have enough to eat:

Although this is being blamed on the pandemic, note that most (if not all) of these countries are ones the USA has been screwing with for quite some time, especially as part of the so-called war on terror.

Do we want to be known as the country which starves children for military and political purposes? I sure don't.

Just A Reminder

You may have noticed that Joe Biden is now under fire for a number of reasons. Here are two examples:

https://justthenews.com/accountability/russia-and-ukraine-scandals/impeachment-boomerang-contacts-exposed-between-us

and

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/grenell-releases-list-of-officials-who-sought-to-unmask-flynn-biden-comey-obama-intel-chiefs-among-them

It almost doesn't matter whether these revelations come from the left or the right. The chief result will be to torpedo his potential candidacy and put someone like Hillary or Cuomo into play.

The election itself is irrelevant; Trump has already lost. The key event will be the Dem's nomination. Whoever gets the nod will be our next President.

Update 5/15/2020

You may have noticed the whining about Trump "cancelling the election". That's BS.

But we ARE being deprived of our democratic process.

For all intents and purposes, the Democrats actually had no primary election. Bernie capitulated; and party insiders will select their candidate. No voters required.

And as I mentioned before, Speaker of the House Pelosi is crafting in secret lengthy "resolutions" intended to drastically change our way of life WITHOUT committee input or oversight, little if any debate, and only voice votes to approve them:

https://sainthoward.blogspot.com/2020/05/from-democracy-to-technocracy.html

Face it - our constitutional republic is GONE. You can argue about who is most responsible, but one thing is certain - no one in DC, including all those who took the oath to support it, seems to care. We're being set up for technocratic dictatorship, and with the exception of a few feeble militia demonstrations, the rest of the country doesn't seem to care, either.

Thought For The Day - 5/14/2020

Wisdom from The Saker:

... most of the US military is in a terminal state of disrepair.

Let’s look at the various services one by one:
  • The USN‘s entire surface fleet is now compromised due to its carrier-centric structure. The USN also lacks modern cruise missiles. Entire classes of surface ships are now either outdated (frigates) or have major design failures (LCS).
  • The USAF flies mostly Cold War jets, often modernized, but all in all, it is an outdated fleet, especially when compared to Russian or Chinese 4th++ and 5th generation aircraft. In fact, the absolute disaster of the F-35 program means that for the first time in its history the US aircraft will be qualitatively outgunned by its likely adversaries. Even US AWACS and other reconnaissance aircraft are now threatened by Russian and Chinese very long range anti-air missiles (both ground and air launched).
  • As for the US Army and Marine Corps, the embarrassing disasters in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere prove that the US ground forces are basically only able to protect themselves, and even that not very well.
  • Then there are the recently created Space Forces which exist only on paper and the US Coast Guard which is basically irrelevant in a major war.

Let's not forget the fact "our" mostly useless military has been spending our nation into bankruptcy, with little to show for it except mountains of dead bodies of people who posed little or no threat to our nation.

Shut them down, reinvest the money in the future of We the People.

And not a penny for Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, etc. They've already got enough of our money.

Does Lack Of Evidence Matter ???

According to some, there is "no evidence" the COVID-19 virus was made in a Chinese lab:

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/55138.htm

Well, there is no evidence the post-9/11 anthrax spores were made by Dr. Bruce Ivins, but the FBI drove him to suicide anyway.

And there is no evidence Lyme disease leaked from the US government lab at Plum Island, either; even though the lab is right across Long Island Sound from Lyme, CT.

And there was no evidence the US government caused the Skull Valley sheep kill ... until the US Army finally admitted it.

Top secret programs are just that ... TOP SECRET. The details don't just "leak out", unless some bigwig wants them to.

WTFU, people.

9/11 - Who Knew ???

Apparently some in the FBI believed the Saudis knew about 9/11 in advance:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/former-senior-fbi-official-the-saudis-likely-played-a-knowing-role-in-sept-11-attacks-234847820.html

Apparently the Israelis also knew:

https://wikispooks.com/wiki/9-11/Israel_did_it/Dancing_Israelis

So ... you want me to believe no one else in the US government knew? How dumb do you think we are?

And stop the "anti-semitic" conspiracy theory BS. We want to know what the hell happened, and why should we care whom it offends? We're the ones who had to pay for it, not them.
