Biden seems uninterested in what spooks say about the Nord Stream sabotage, the journalist said in an interview aired by RT...

US President Joe Biden doesn't seem interested in complicated analysis from the intelligence community, including information on the Nord Stream sabotage, American investigative journalist Seymour Hersh has said.

Speaking to Afshin Rattansi on Going Underground, which was aired by RT on Monday, Hersh remarked:
"There are people [in US intelligence agencies] that do analysis and write complicated foreign policy studies. It's an intellectual game. Many of them feel isolated, because there is no sign that the White House is terribly interested in long-term national intelligence estimates. And they certainly don't want one on the pipeline."
Hersh reported earlier this year that Nord Stream, which had supplied oil from Russia to Germany, had been sabotaged in a joint US-Norwegian operation ordered by Joe Biden last September. Both nations deny the allegation.

Comment: Biden is also disconnected from intelligence...primarily his own.

Rep. Harriet Hageman calls for Antony Blinken to appear before the Weaponization Committee

Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY) on Saturday called for Secretary of State Antony Blinken to appear before Congress to answer questions about his role in the crafting of a letter by 51 former intelligence officials that discredited the Hunter Biden laptop story weeks before the 2020 presidential election.

In an exclusive interview with Sirius XM's Breitbart News Saturday with host Breitbart News Washington Bureau Chief Matthew Boyle, Hageman, who sits on the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, said:
"He better. He needs to. We have either the Judiciary or the Weaponization Committees. We need to find out what happened here. And we need to find out to what extent he is compromised because, again, as secretary of state his obligation and oath is to the United States and the American citizens."
Ohio Republican Reps. Jim Jordan, chair of the Weaponization Committee, and Mike Turner, chair of the Intelligence Committee, on Thursday revealed that former CIA Deputy Director Mike Morell testified to Congress that in October 2020, Blinken — who was then a senior adviser on the Biden campaign — reached out to him regarding the New York Post's Hunter Biden laptop story, prompting Morell to write a letter signed by 50 other former intelligence officials suggesting the story was Russian disinformation.

Comment: The slow motion train wreck that is the Democratic Leadership is going downhill and picking up speed.

Biden strands thousands of Americans in Sudan with no evacuation plan amid embassy disaster

U.S. forces carried out an evacuation of government personnel from the U.S. Embassy in Sudan on Saturday, as confirmed by President Joe Biden in a statement issued in the evening.

The extraction operation was conducted by the U.S. military at the embassy located in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan. The city has been marred by armed conflict between the army and a paramilitary group, prompting the need for the evacuation of embassy personnel.

Biden reportedly said:
"Today, on my orders, the United States military conducted an operation to extract U.S. Government personnel from Khartoum. I am proud of the extraordinary commitment of our Embassy staff, who performed their duties with courage and professionalism and embodied America's friendship and connection with the people of Sudan.

"I am grateful for the unmatched skill of our service members who successfully brought them to safety. And I thank Djibouti, Ethiopia, and Saudi Arabia, which were critical to the success of our operation."
The White House has announced that it does not currently have any government-coordinated evacuation plans for American citizens who are stranded in Sudan amidst the escalating civil war in Africa's third-largest country. It is estimated that approximately 16,000 private U.S. citizens are registered with the U.S. Embassy in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan.

Presidential candidate RFK Jr. vows to 'unwind US empire'

April 19, 2023 • Boston, Massachusetts
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., nephew of JFK, is set to challenge Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination in 2024...

US presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr has pledged to wind down American military interventionism abroad if he is elected to the White House in 2024.

Kennedy, who is the son of Robert F. Kennedy and the nephew of former President John F. Kennedy, confirmed his candidacy for the Democratic nomination at a campaign rally in Boston last week, placing him in competition with current US leader Joe Biden.

Also known for being a prominent anti-vaccine activist, the 69-year-old environmental lawyer has acknowledged that he is not an "ideal" candidate given his often-controversial brand of discourse, but has argued that he is "not one of those people who said I have to be careful because one day I'm going to be in the White House."

Chief among Kennedy's campaign proposals, as noted in a six-point plan published on his official website, would be drawing a line through US military interventionism abroad and "start[ing] the process of unwinding [an] empire."
"We will bring the troops home. We will stop racking up unpayable debt to fight one war after another. The military will return to its proper role of defending our country. America cannot be an empire abroad and a democracy at home."

After disastrous debates in 2020, Democrats have decided to not hold presidential debates in 2024

Communists don't need debates. Their leaders are chosen.

As noted in the first chapter of The Steal: Volume II - The Impossible Occurs - Joe Biden was lost during the 2020 campaign:
...former Vice President Joe Biden was a disaster. He looked lost at times and was embarrassing during the Democrat debates. Early on, it was clear he wasn't going to be able to take on President Trump. After a short time, it appeared that none of the Democrats running for office could take on President Trump.
The Democrat debates in 2020 were a total disaster because of the communist-leaning policies of the left that no decent American supported and because their candidates were awful. TGP reported on this at the time. In December 2019, the Democrats held a debate and nobody cared. The debate received the smallest audience to date. These debates got worse and worse.

Comment: We shall find out how much leverage Biden has left.

No, Saudi Arabia did NOT do 9/11

911 Aftermath
© Off-Guardian
The bombshell 911 news this past week, is that a freshly-published court filing from Jul 2021, has revealed at least two of the 19 alleged "hijackers" may have been recruited by the CIA.

Now this isn't exactly "news", after all it has long since been established that the CIA, FBI and/or any other US alphabet agencies simply must have been involved. It couldn't have happened without their involvement.

Unfortunately, but not unexpectedly, the new release doesn't go that far. Instead, the testimony from Donald C Canestraro Declaration - former lead investigator for the Office of Military Commissions - discusses the "intelligence failures that led to 9/11", while focusing mainly on the "hijackers" and their backgrounds.

According to a report in Grayzone, the court filing relies on anonymous testimony from "high-ranking CIA and FBI officials":
...the filing is a 21-page declaration by Don Canestraro, a lead investigator for the Office of Military Commissions, the legal body overseeing the cases of 9/11 defendants. It summarizes classified government discovery disclosures, and private interviews he conducted with anonymous high-ranking CIA and FBI officials.
That should be a red flag, right there. Rather like Sy Hersh's recent "revelations" on Nord Stream 2, any use of "anonymous insider sources" should always set off your internal bullshit alarm. It's more likely to be a limited hangout than anything else.

In fact, any discussion of the "hijackers" at all should engage your inner sceptic.

Bidens' corrupt web unraveling before our eyes

biden family corruption influence peddling
© Chris Kleponis / CNP / SplashNews.comInvestigators believe President Biden participated and profited from corrupt influence-peddling schemes when he was vice president.
It is said that history turns on small hinges, with the poem For Want of a Nail the classic example.

Another example is unfolding before our eyes.

The sudden flurry of evidence and allegations about the Biden family's money-making schemes is a direct result of the GOP winning control of the House of Representatives last year.

The margin of midterm victory was very small — just five seats — but the impact is very large because the majority comes with subpoena power.

And aggressive new Republican committee leaders are eager and willing to use that power.

EU 'foreign minister' Borrell calls for European navy patrols in Taiwan Strait


Comment: Quiet, maggots, The Gardener of Europe is speaking:

The European Union's foreign policy chief has called for maritime patrols along the Taiwan Strait in a sharp contrast to France's announcement that it is opposed to the EU being caught up in the escalation of tensions between China and the United States.

In an opinion piece published in French Weekly on Sunday, Josep Borrell wrote that the bloc's battleships should patrol the Taiwan Strait in a show of commitment.

In regard to EU presence in the Taiwan Strait, Borrell insisted that Europeans must be "very present on this issue," noting that developments in regard to the US-China crisis in the region concerned the European continent "economically, commercially and technologically."

Can we trust the World Health Organisation with so much power?

"Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely...", observed the English historian, Lord Acton, writing to a friend in 1857. This widely-quoted aphorism should lead us to reflect on the absolute powers that the World Health Organization is currently seeking for its director-general (DG). The organization has abandoned the broad, interdisciplinary vision of health based on primary care and public engagement that characterized its original mission and was expressed in the Alma-Ata Declaration of 1978. What we now see is a top-down, command-and-control approach, based on a narrow scientific base and the preferences, or prejudices, of a few major donors. This model has palpably failed to deliver in times of crisis. If the response is to strengthen the powers of command, can the organization be trusted to use these wisely, responsibly and effectively?

Earth's Ultimate War: A Battle to Control the Noosphere

Earth from Space
© New Eastern Outlook
You feel it, don't you? There's something deeply wrong with our world. And I don't refer to the planet's geosphere. I mean, there's something deadly wrong with society overall, and the ways in which we interact and react. Something is coming, and many understand what it is.
We are like people under [a] sentence of death, waiting for the date to be set. We sense that something is about to happen. We know that things cannot go on as they are. History has reached an impasse. We are now on a collision course. Something is about to give. - Reverend Billy Graham
A few years ago, I wrote a report on NEO entitled "Vladimir Putin's Third Way: As Seen Through the Nooscope." The piece covered Mr. Putin's "Third Way" of governance, and a stunning invention by his now chief of staff Anton Vaino. The invention, the Nooscope was reportedly a device capable of measuring the noosphere, or the highest stage of biospheric development, that of humankind's rational activities. And through the measurement of humanity's activities, along with the use of advanced artificial intelligence (AI), the Russian leadership seemed to be seeking a new order not simply of which countries have a say so, but a system that could elevate humanity to its next logical level.

At first, the western academic and journalistic communities exhibited acute curiosity mixed with tongue in cheek skepticism such as is always leveled at Russian ideas. Then, of course, a maze of misinterpretations and distractive propaganda campaigns buried Putin's ideas, and the probability that our collective conscious and energy can be measured for good. Sure, Google, Amazon, and a hundred other entities powered by Big and Minute data operate such measurements for profit, day in and day out. But those pesky Russians using advanced thinking and algorithms to fix humanity's woes! This kind of idea had to be branded ridiculous propaganda. But is it?

Let's remember that it was Plato who predicted that Noocracy was humanity's future political system. The philosopher also claimed that Democracy ("the authority of the crowd") and other forms of governance would eventually be replaced by a system such as that Vladimir Putin has suggested. So-called "Russia experts" scoff at the noosphere as a part of Russian Cosmism. However, a Rand Corporation report in 2020 acknowledge the developing noosphere, and made recommendations for the United States to considered adapting U.S. grand strategy to the information age — noopolitik, which favors the use of "soft power" — as a successor to realpolitik, with its emphasis on "hard power." So, the bastardization of Mr. Putin's "Third Way" concepts by the likes of the Brookings Institute and authors Clifford G. Gaddy and Barry W. Ickes (2009),
