The Right to Be Let Alone: When the Government Wants to Know All Your Business
John Whitehead
“Experience teaches us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government’s purposes are beneficent.”
Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis
There was a time when the census was just a head count. That is no longer the case.
The American Community Survey (ACS), sent to about 3.5 million homes every year, is the byproduct of a government that believes it has the right to know all of your personal business.
If you haven’t already received an ACS, it’s just a matter of time.

The Pentagon’s B-Movie: Looking Closely at the September 2001 Attacks
Edward Curtin
This new book by Graeme MacQueen (click here for a free e-copy) contains a collection of his articles and essays on the attacks of September 11, 2001, the subsequent anthrax attacks, and analyses of other false flag operations. They are profoundly important and shatter the official versions of those events.
No one reading this book can come away from it not convinced that the U.S. government is a terrorist state. MacQueen’s conclusions are not based on rhetoric but on a deep empirical analyses, facts not propaganda.

WATCH: Decentralized Communication – #SolutionsWatch
As the internet clampdown begins, people are finally beginning to wake up to the need to find alternative communication platforms. But if the masses are just herded from one centralized platform to another, has anything really changed at all?

19 Memes to get you through the Day – Part 31

We’ve got bank collapses, war and political arrests to cover. IT’s all funny stuff. Let’s start with SVB, shall we? The internet went a lil bit meme crazy with that one.

He’s not wrong.

It’s the trust in the authority, stupid!
Iain Davis
The world is apparently descending into chaos. With events such as the recent collapse of SVB bank adding to the problems allegedly caused by the pseudopandemic and the war in Ukraine, it is easy to feel overwhelmed.
Only a few years ago it was widely recognised that, by nearly every measure, global life outcomes were all improving. Suddenly, we’re all haunted by the spectres of conquest, war, famine and death.
From the cost of living, energy and food crisis, to the threat of a widening international conflict, a climate disaster and now global financial collapse, we seem to…...

Covid’s Third Birthday – A Retrospective Weekend
Catte Black
Recently, prominent “anti-vaxxer” Michael Yeadon publicly stated he does not believe there was ever a new disease called “covid”.
This should not be regarded as a controversial position, and the fact that it is seen as such only illustrates the amount of confusion and bewilderment that most people still suffer when it comes to understanding what the “covid” operation really was.
Once you look at the acknowledged facts – and I mean the officially acknowledged facts – clearly and without pre-existing emotional bias, the fact that “covid” never existed as anything but a name becomes…...

There is an awful lot of “I know I’m right” chatter going around on both sides. I am just curious, what makes you so sure you are right? And what makes them so sure they are right? Unless you are Einstein or something, I’m sure you are like the rest of us and need to get most of your information from another source.

The Cell Phone Is a Pair of Red High Heels
Edward curtin
It is comical how easily one can be ignored for pointing out that new technology is dangerous and fetishistic. So-called “smart” cell phones are a prime example. For years I have been pointing out their dangers on many levels. To say most people are devoted to them is an understatement. Maybe it is an exaggeration to say they revere them, but if asked, they will say they couldn’t live without them. It’s sort of like saying I don’t revere my partner but couldn’t live without her or him. Ah love!

It’s a zero-sum situation. The rich are robbing the poor to swell their coffers – and their bellies.
In April 2022, Oxfam reported a terrifying prospect of more than a quarter of a billion people falling into extreme levels of poverty in 2022 alone.
In its January 2021 report ‘The Inequality Virus’, it also stated that the wealth of the world’s billionaires increased by .9tn between 18 March and 31 December 2020. Their total wealth then stood at .95tn, a 50 per cent increase in just…...

Putin & Xi’s Moscow agreements

It was a big week for Russia-China experts, who collectively managed to write 10,000 hot takes about what happened in Moscow without explaining what actually happened in Moscow.
Is there a reason why all Russia-China commentary disintegrates into esoteric abstractions by the second paragraph? Can someone just tell us what Putin and Xi agreed to do together? Like, what did they physically sign, and what was printed on these sheets of paper that they signed?

Why You Should Destroy Your Smart Phone Now

So-called ‘smart phones’ — far more accurately described as ‘dumb phones’ — combine a mobile phone with a watch, with a road map, with a tourist atlas of the world, with a digital camera, with a personal stereo system, with a music collection, with a video recorder, with a diary, with a calculator, with a credit card, with a travelcard, with an office key, with a torch, with a newspaper, with a television, with something to read on the train, and probably a lot more.

Wuhan’s “Mystery Illness” is Covid’s Foundational Lie

Recently, while researching our updated edition of 40 Facts, I came across this article from Time magazine, one that I had apparently missed when it was first published and that had somehow escaped my notice in the following three Covid-centric years.
The article demonstrates how, from the very beginning, the covid narrative was a psy-op construct, that never made any internal sense.
It focuses on the work of Chinese virologist Dr Zhang Yongzhen, and how he and his team (allegedly) isolated the Sars-Cov-2 virus and sequenced its genome. The article frames Zhang as a hero…...
