Ode to the Republic

05/11/2024

By Randall Richards
Happy Voting Day, Enjoy it While You Can**

The following is a good natured exchange on Farcebook between an old friend from my hometown (New Hampshire, USA) and me. It’s self explanatory but in keeping with an “Ode” theme, I’m also including some lyrics from a song I wrote some 30 years ago, which seems applicable. Happy reading.
My friend posted this meme of Farcebook recently, and here’s my response:

Hi James, others
I implore you to do one thing and that’s to look outside your newsfeed because you’re being lied to in real time. I didn’t want to believe it, who does? The power structure is scared to death of being called out on their decades of corruption and are hoping, and banking on, you won’t pull back the curtain and see the truth. What I say sounds crazy, but our future depends on you and others taking off the blinders and waking up to outright lies and defamation that you’re being fed. I warn you though it will take courage. Some of us have the advantage of long-term assimilation to the facts. You don’t have that advantage and the ride may be rough, but I and others are here for you. Again I implore you to at least consider taking the red pill, because all I’m promising you is the truth and nothing more. Oh and by the way, it has less to do with left and right than you can imagine

Addendum:
A good place to start would be to investigate who funds the media. You can find that on Yahoo Finance.
Do you still trust the banks? Remember the Enron and too big to fail events? Do you think they have changed their behavior since then, especially regarding military industrial machine? Lastly, consider reading or listening Whitney Webb.
Best to you on your journey.
Randall

This was my friend’s response:
Randall, I believe that you are sincerely reaching out to share what you believe to be important truths. It concerns me, however, that your comment was offered as a reaction to a post that decries bigotry in very general terms, and offers a pithy resolution to the “paradox of tolerance….” I would be surprised if your intent were to defend bigotry, but it’s hard to understand what else prompted you to post this comment here and now.
I hope that your reference to “the red pill” is intended to encourage general skepticism toward dominant social narratives, rather than an embrace of the fantasies of QAnon, MAGA, incel culture, and the “Alt Right.” Unfortunately, back here in the ‘States, the “red pill” metaphor is often deployed in the service of those collective delusions.

And today’s response on voting day in the U.S:
Hey James, Others,
Happy voting day there Stateside. Good luck.**
Good to hear back from you and thanks for your reply in the comments. I actually had a draft running, but FB deleted it. So I’ll give it another go. Yeah, I’m trying to reach out, which is an exception, because my knowledge usually falls on deaf ears. So generally, it’s not worth my time anymore. There are some you just can’t reach. But a fellow journalist is quoted as saying, there are many pathways to the truth, and some find their way through one issue or another, and then it hits them – “They’ve been lied to.” Then it’s a matter of prying off the bandage to see how bad it is.

I love your writing style. Top notch my friend. I could take some lessons from you. Here’s my response. I trust you’ll take it in good faith. Hopefully the days of respectful discourse are not of days gone by.

Your wrote, that my comment was “offered as a reaction to a post that decries bigotry in very general terms” is not how I see it. The post suggests that those on the “Right”, one side, hates blacks, brown, Asian, etc. and the other side, “Left” hates bigots.  Firstly, I put the left and right in quotes, because the terms are almost meaningless. I didn’t leave the Democratic Party, it left me. Having said that there is an extremist element that has co-opted the Democratic Party. You’d be mortified to know the truth. That’s why I said it would be a rough journey if you and others start doing the hard research.  The meme was not based on fact. No, I don’t defend bigotry in any form, nor even, “hate” which your post evidently advocates. Love your enemy, remember.  My response, in all due respect, was not meant to be pithy in any manner.  That you find it hard to understand what prompted me to post my comment is just the point that we’re on different planes of understanding.

 A good friend yesterday made the analogy that learning the facts of the backstory is a bit like mathematics. It starts with bath arithmetic, etc., then algebra, and if you can handle that, calculus and then delving into quantum physics. At some point, especially me, I’ll get lost at about the calculus level, (if I’m lucky!) and drop out at that point.  Learning the true history, and facts behind the current situation is similar to my analogy. People can handle the truth up to certain point, then cognitive dissonance sets in. Yeah, “the Military Industrial Complex may not have my interests in mind” or “Yeah, there were some mistakes with the vaccine rollout”, and “Yes, the media might be owned by three corporations but, it can’t be that controlled.” “Partial truth” is good enough for a lot of people. It’s not good enough.
Yes, my comment about the red pill, was not in reference to the republican party. Sorry, I wasn’t clear on that. It’s about challenging the illusion, per the Matrix movie. Author of the “Great Unraveling” Julius Ruechel has brilliantly addressed the issue of mass-formation, which I encourage you read/watch. In summary, it’s as if we’re trying in some way to get y’all, people on both sides, to snap out of it.
Your listing of  Q’Anon,  MAGA, “incel”, and Alt Right is curious and, respectfully, shows you’re a bit uninformed. “Q” is a listing of clues supposedly from someone on the inside of government. Never had time for that, and frankly I think it’s a danger to the republic, (notice I didn’t say democracy). “Anon” is a movement of onliners devoted to deciphering the clues or “drops” from “Q”. Again, a time waster in my opinion. “Alt-right” is a term like “Conspiracy Theory” that’s a powerful label created (the latter, created by the CIA, look it up) to marginalize with the sweep of a hand. And it’s effective.  Yes, you’re spot on, regarding “collective delusions” but what I find interesting is it’s playing out on both sides, more acutely on “The Left”.  Seeing a sea of “Red hatters” is a cautionary vision for me too. Of course Thiel’s backing of JD Vance is not a good sign. Have you heard of the Bilderberg Group, or CFR? He’s on their board of directors, and no, it’s not conspiracy. It’s fact. Please read up. As a side note, I’m not “anti-vax” but RJK Jr’s book shows that Big Pharma, and the agencies they’ve co-opted, don’t have your health in mind, and that’s putting it very mildly. They have a long history of money-making at all costs.

Replying to some of his commenters:
Tom wrote:
As a Trump supporter I was never a bigot. With regards to Obama…we got the first sort of mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.,
I voted for him, but I was fooled. He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I agree though, he is indeed articulate and bright though.
David, wrote:
Please read some actually reporting and scholarship, instead of conspiratorial drivel.
I wouldn’t call RFK Jr’s “The Real Anthony Fauci” or “The Pfizer Papers” by Wolf, conspiratorial drivel, nor, while I’m at it, “The “Creature from Jekyll Island”. If the first book were untrue then RFK Jr. would have been sued for libel by now.

Unclear, please expound.
Ted, wrote:
Ok, so I read this page on Whitney Webb. Are you going to support Trump, the good friend of Jeffrey Epstein?
Ted, Respectfully, your comment is irrelevant and incorrect.  And you say, you ‘read a page’ on Whitney Webb. The problem is, one group has done deep research and the other is fed a narrative and believes it based on a corporate media feed.
Of course Trump is not ideal, and whether he’s been convicted of rape or not, I admittedly don’t know for fact one way or the other, but have read it was a complete set-up. (As a side note, you do know, I assume, that to get a conviction, it used to require a unanimous decision on each count by a jury of your peers. The NY judge allowed each juror to come up with his own decision on individual counts, and that called those convictions. That wasn’t justice.  It makes for great pablum, unless you look into it.  Of course he should not be calling anyone stupid or other insults. I wouldn’t want to spend a weekend with Trump. But…Watch the “Art of the Surge”, The whole documentary series of a behind the scenes reporting during this campaign with an embedded team. It’s a rare opportunity to see history in real time. As difficult as it might be, make the stretch and see the real person vs. the “straw man” the media has painted of him, (and Alex Jones, by the way, which should trigger a few!)
Ted wrote:
It seems like you think: Peter Thiel, Tucker Carson, RFK Jr., DJT, etc. are truth-tellers instead of just self-serving lie-peddlers. I don’t think you’re correct.
Your comments about truth tellers/lie peddlers is not based on fact, and, you “don’t think” I’m correct? It’s matter of knowledge from source materials. Respectfully, do some research, (happy to provide a book list for you), then get back to me.
Martha writes:
I am basing my decision to vote for Harris on information I’ve received directly from people who have dedicated their lives to defending democracy on the world stage (Gen. Kelly) or original documents (Project 2025).
Admittedly, I’ve not delved into Project 2025 yet, although have had a cursory look and understanding of it. I need to look at it. I trust you remember when Obama cleaned house of all the top brass generals and installed new ones. Why do you think he did that?

In conclusion, from my side perspective and experience, I’ve seen the huge amounts of censorship that has kept “the left” from seeing the facts. So I understand the slumber, and the reluctance to look outside the info bubble. I was once accused by that “crazy guy” Ed Brown*, (anyone remember him?) from Sullivan County, NH, USA. They locked him up and threw away the key. Yeah, he was inflammatory, and wasn’t good with people*.
*(All that exists online about Brown is a Wikipedia entry. While I don’t argue with their record of convictions, I’m completely dubious of Wikipedia, and take what they say with a grain of salt.)
But Brown once said to me, “It’s all good that your hobby is researching the deep state and all that, but what are you actually doing to spread the truth and push back against the bullies?” At the time, I was offended at his frankness. Now, I’m a busy guy.

** Since I wrote this piece yesterday, since Trump’s win, I thought I’d better clarify the meaning of “Enjoy it while you can” in the header. Since Harris’s loss, it could be construed that I was gloating, which is not what I meant.
In fact, there’s a fair chance that the globalists and deep state, and 3-letter agencies, CIA, etc., who have it out for Trump, will stage another assassination attempt, and/or a false flag event. Prefacing that no-one is coming to save us, Trump is better than Harris, and talks a good game at least. It’s fairly clear the powers that be are scattering like rats on a ship. They don’t want to held accountable for their crimes. So they’ll do whatever it takes to avoid being brought to justice.
Make no mistake, these are delicate times, and let’s pray, meditate, do Hawaiian affirmations – whatever it takes to hold the peace, be welcoming and open hearted and above all compassionate. There are some wonderful posts by people on both sides saying to stay calm and enjoy the ride. I suggest readers here do the same. Trump is not the monster the mainstream media has made him out to be, nor is he a savior. But after generations of entrenched power structures, he’s one of our best bets (not the only one though) of making this right.
So, in short, what I meant was, buckle up. It could be an interesting ride.

Oh, yes, an Ode to The Republic,

Tucker Carlson Interviews Trudeau’s Brother

13/05/2024

Few people know Justin Trudeau better than his own brother. Here’s what he, Kyle Kemper, says about him.

From the interview transcript:
“Most people in Western countries and the United States and Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, etc., most people who lived in those countries two years ago got the Covid vaccine. That’s just a fact. And maybe because of that fact, very few people want to talk about what that was, not just what the vaccine itself was and what it may do to the human body and the human brain. Those are worthy conversations, important conversation, necessary conversations, ignored conversations. But the bigger conversation is why were governments across the West pulling out all stops to force people to take this compound that they called a vaccine? What was this and what did we learn about the motives and the aims of those governments by their behavior around the vaccine? What did we learn?”

Truth & Lies in Wanaka New Zealand

06/04/2024

By Randall Richards
Yesterday, I attended an “Aspiring Conversations” event called “Truth and Lies*” which is part of Wanaka, “Festival of Colour” held periodically in this small but growing town on New Zealand’s South Island. I, and about twenty-five friends who are concerned about threats to free speech and government overreach, had bought the $25 ticket to hear four people on stage discuss what their webpage describes as follows
“How do we know what is true and how do we deal with the misinformation and disinformation that plagues not just social media, but public life.”

Truth and Lies speakers lineup, clockwise from upper left: Susie Ferguson, Kate Hannah (no show), Byron Clarke and Siouxsie Wiles.

The webpage gave the speakers’ backgrounds: “Susie Ferguson has recently produced a podcast series called Undercurrents. Kate Hannah (no-show) is the director of the Disinformation Project. Byron C Clarke is an expert on the far right and has just written Fear: New Zealand’s Hostile World of ExtremistsSiouxsie Wiles is a science communicator who has been targeted by the alt right.” The event was hosted by Radio New Zealand host Kathryn Ryan

I was dreading going to the event. I was tempted to bring a barf bag in protest but decided at the last minute to nix that idea. I felt as if I were going into the den of lions. The thought of attending this talk brought a mild feeling of nausea. When I found a seat in the audience, I grew a bit anxious, as what looked like a largely retired, but woke population, started to fill the auditorium. As a group, my friends and I agreed we’d be respectful of their guidelines, (besides we discovered when Kathryn Ryan was reading the ground rules, that “Any disruptions from the audience would result in being escorted out by security personnel.” A friend from Arrowtown, NZ, who didn’t get our memo, did speak out loudly once, when Siouxsie Wiles stated on stage that there were minimal adverse effects of the Covid19 “vaccine”. He spoke up loudly, saying, “What about the skyrocketing excess deaths reported?” He was rewarded by a security guard coming to the end of his row and glowering at him with a threatening look of, “Don’t do that again, or you’re out of here.”

A last minute email sent out to ticket-holders the day before the event stated, that if we’d like to submit questions to be considered, they’d have to be emailed in prior. So that evening we, as a group, decided to submit the following questions:

1. What are the panel’s views on Dr. Michael Kelly’s recent article that calculated it would cost New Zealand $500 BILLION to implement the climate change actions being proposed by our Government?

2. Does the panel regard it to be “true” that the Covid vaccine was “safe and effective?”

3. What is the panel’s opinion of NZ’s Bill of Rights which states that: “Everyone has the right to freedom of expression, including the freedom to seek, receive, and impart information and opinions of any kind in any form.”

4. What level of C02 is acceptable to members of this panel when ice samples show that the planet currently has its lowest ever levels of CO2 levels in the last 70 million years?

5. What is the panel’s opinion regarding the refusal of our ministry of Health to release the true data on the vaccination injury statistics and all-cause mortality figures over the last 4 years?

6. Why does the panel think advertisers are withdrawing from mainstream media in their droves, causing their collapse?

7. Can members of the panel please confirm, in public that you do not receive any funding from third parties like the UN, WHO or Governmental or university bodies – either directly or indirectly?

There was no Q&A section of the presentation.
Knowing, this might be the case, we printed out copies of the questions to hand out to the audience as they exited the building with the following additional background printed on the front:

Questions for the Truth & Lies Panel Discussion
Some concerned people in the Otago region are planning to ask these 7 questions at the Truth and Lies discussion event on the 6th of April, which is slated to be part of Wanaka’s Aspiring Conversations, at The Festival of Colour.
We, as individuals, will request these questions be answered during the Q&A portion of the event, if there is such a portion. If not, we will ask the panel if they will answer the questions in the room, immediately after the event.
If the panel will not address the questions after the event, we will present these questions to them with a request to respond via email, and will also hand out copies of this document to the attendees as they exit the event.
We’re hopeful the discussion panel will hear our concerns, and we look forward to hearing their answers
.

We also included their mission of the event:

From the Festival of Colour Website:

“Our vision is to create an extraordinary platform that inspires, entertains, and challenges, fostering community well-being. Through diverse performances, thought-provoking discussions, and interactive events, we aim to engage our community and captivate individuals from all walks of life. Our dynamic programme showcases both established and emerging artists, representing Aotearoa’s artistic and cultural landscape alongside international acts.

We believe in the transformative power of the arts to spark conversations, challenge perceptions, and connect people. Alongside showcasing incredible performances that move our audiences, our festivals stimulate dialogue on critical issues, encouraging reflection and exploration of new ideas, encouraging personal growth, cultural understanding, and social cohesion. (emphasis added by author)

I’m sorry to say the event fell far short of ticking any of the boxes I highlight above. On the contrary, the event encouraged conformative non-critical thinking by oversimplifying major issues of the day such as the use of the internet and the Telegram platform in particular. At one point, Susie Ferguson stated she was “given a tour of Telegrams groups” as if it were some sort of foreign dark web element of our society. It is not.
Byron Clarke stated “Be skeptical and stick to broadcasting standards.” I say, keep an open mind, and follow your nose. Someone recently is quoted as saying, people know the truth when they see it, they can smell it.” Another quote oft attributed to Mark Twain, “A lie gets half way around the world before truth gets a chance to put its pants on.” Maintaining an open, curious mind today is mandatory to stay healthy and at peace.

My twelve year son, who attended the event, picked up on the overall feeling of fear from the panel members, and he was right. Clarke earlier stated, “We’re in worrying times when our landscape of news media is changing with fake news, fake info, on the internet which is considered the truth”. The audience then sighed or gasped. I had the distinct feeling I was in a paddock of sheep.
Clarke added the example of “The protest of the mandates in Wellington are signs of worrying times, when they could have been protesting for a more worthy cause”. He continued, “While reputable newscasts are behind some sort of paywalls, (TV subscriptions, advertising, etc) the internet is free, such as New Zealand’s own Counterspin Media, Reality Check Radio, Voice Media, my own blog and Infowars and TCN the U.S. to name a few. (For the record, the above excluding my own and Counterspin, have paid elements of their services. Voice Media is virtually a full paid subscription service and TCN has much of its content behind a paywall). The mainstream military industrial media globalist complex gets paid to lie and create the mess, we have to volunteer or scrounge for donations to clean up the mess. I, and others in truth* media, can speak from experience that countering the narrative doesn’t pay well. Without corporate sponsors, even the “founding father” of truth media, Alex Jones, has to promote his health line of supplements to stay on air. He doesn’t receive government grants as does RNZ and other “Old Fashioned Media, OFM” here in New Zealand.

The moderator brought up our Bill of Rights in NZ, and the right to free speech. That was a curious exchange, with Souixsie Wiles stating in effect, that free speech is not an absolute, that when someone says something which could end up killing someone with misinformation (regarding the pandemic), this is not a right. This sparked a few comments from the audience. Rightfully so.

Byron incorrectly stated that “people who are online too much are susceptible , That’s why the pandemic blew things up for a certain percentage of the population. My feeling is that what they’re reading online justifies violence, and the material appeals to those that don’t trust authority.” Firstly, violence is never justified, and yes, there surely must be a small percentage of unbalanced individuals who advocate violence on the internet. But to the bigger picture, correct me if I’m wrong, is it not only our right, but our responsibility to have a healthy distrust our government? The founding fathers of the U.S. Declaration of Independence certainly accounted for that when they constructed the constitution.

Going back to what my 12-yr old picked up, that the panelists seemed fearful, and “not in a good way” as he put it. “They weren’t healthy and happy looking like our friends” he stated. “They seemed like they had low energy.” My read on the situation confirms his perceptions.

I had a cathartic experience at the event. I had never seen any of these people in person before. Once I saw them on stage, I felt empathy for them. All I wanted to do was somehow reach out to them, either on or off the record. It was helpful hearing their story to understand where they are coming from. It’s clear they are troubled and don’t have the full picture. As I’ve written in previous articles, and stated on stage, I was brought up in an extended family who had a healthy distrust (but also respect) of the U.S. government and military. My uncle was a 4-star general in the army and worked in the Pentagon as an aide to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He told me about the reality of Washington DC and the power structures. It’s mainly what got me interested in being a United Press International photojournalists in my late teens and early ’20’s. It’s also what got me interested in finding out the back-story of how things work, by making my own investigative phone calls, and receiving answers I didn’t want to hear by our state-owned media and institutions.

Last night, all I could do was feel compassion for these ill-informed panelists who know not what they do. Well, maybe they do. The saying, “they’re either being played or being paid” holds true here. Despite that, all I saw were humans on stage, who were mirroring in statements, (to a much greater degree than my friends and I feel), some of the same issues we felt when being mandated out of public places or fired from our jobs. The people on stage made comments such as, “I feel afraid to speak out for fear of reprisals, for losing my job, for losing friendships.” All I saw was a mirror of myself, in an exaggerated form. As a caveat, I would say, I’m not really fearful, and at this point, I don’t care what people think of my opinions. That’s one of the advantages of getting older.
This cast of characters on stage might even be “in on the take”. So what? It is what it is. It doesn’t mean we don’t stand outside the venue with posters showing photographs of vaccine injured individuals who have suffered greatly, to help open people’s eyes. But it does mean we have compassion for those that haven’t yet seen the whole truth. It’s like being upset at someone for having a cold or illness. How can you? It seems on the surface, they have a choice in the matter, but they don’t have a choice until they break free of the conditioning. It’s not their fault. It’s a condition of the times. An exciting time to be a journalist and a writer. I can tell you that much!

Reactions from a friend about the “Truth and Lies” event in Wanaka, NZ, and others with posters of “vaccine” injured victims who have either died or now have serious side effects.


Friends share posters of the vaccine injured. More info can be found at https://thehealthforumnz.co.nz/

Author’s Note:
*I was tempted to include in this article, that the title should have been called “Lies and More Lies” which I think is funny, but it implies the panel members know that they’re lying, and I can at least tell, with certainty, they’re not seeing the whole picture. Whether it’s intentional or not, at least at this level I’m not sure. Look up “Hegelian Dialectic.”
This just in: Just received this text from a friend who was not able to attend the event:
“Hi Randall, Looks like you all made a bit of an impact with the pants on fire crowd.”
Oh good, I look forward to hearing more!

Update: I’ve been hearing some really good comments from my community here in Wanaka, and encourage you, and those beyond the area, to comment in section below or on my Farcebook page as well to stir the pot.

If Putin Had Hired an Aussie Translator

Excuse the colorful language:

The Forbidden Interview

08/02/2024
An historic interview

Tucker Carlson believes in free speech. He also believes that most Americans have been lied to by its government and the mainstream media, mostly by omission. He took a chance, probably one of the biggest in his life, to do what he felt was right: Travel to Russia and interview its president. Globalist and American powers-that-be, are having a conniption over this interview because it steps outside their controlled narrative. The American people owe it to themselves to at least watch the interview and make up their own minds. After all, they’re adults. They also owe it fellow citizens as well. Our future may depend upon it.

Opinion: Having seen the interview, I ran it past Dr. Peter Canaday, who speaks fluent Russian and whose wife is Ukrainian, and prior to the war, had been going to the Ukraine on a yearly basis. So they know the situation. He says Putin’s version of history is conveniently tilted to the Russian perspective, and is not accurate to what the Ukrainian people as a whole see things. More on this later, as I’ll reach out to Peter to see if we can get an interview with wife and him on this subject.

Further, in honour of being cautious, here’s a good post from the Guardian explaining what Whitney Webb warns us about: Watch what they do, not what they say. Although Tucker is convincing, especially in his live speeches.

Tucker Interviews Putin

07/02/2024

The question you should be asking yourself is, “Will I watch this interview with an open mind?”, not “Is Tucker Carlson a traitor?” The media wants you to think he’s a traitor, but as you might have the feeling in your gut, that something’s note quite right in the country, and the world, that we’re at this turning point, you might want to listen to the interview to hear what the US govt, and it’s media are not telling you. 

“We’re in Moscow to interview Putin”

Here’s the transcript of the video above

“We’re in Moscow tonight. We’re here to interview the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin. We’ll be doing that soon. There are risks to conducting an interview like this, obviously. So we’ve thought about it carefully over many months. Here’s why we’re doing it. First, because it’s our job. We’re in journalism. Our duty is to inform people. Two years into a war that’s reshaping the entire world, most Americans are not informed. They have no real idea what’s happening in this region, here in Russia or 600 miles away in Ukraine. But they should know, they’re paying for much of it in ways they might not fully yet perceive. The war in Ukraine is a human disaster. It’s left hundreds of thousands of people dead. An entire generation of young Ukrainians. And has depopulated the largest country in Europe. But the long-term effects are even more profound. This war has utterly reshaped the global military and trade alliances, and the sanctions that followed have as well. And in total, they have upended the world economy. The post-World War 2 economic order, the system that guaranteed prosperity in the West for more than 80 years, is coming apart very fast, and along with it, the dominance of the US dollar. These are not small changes. They are history altering developments. They will define the lives of our grandchildren. Most of the world understands this perfectly well. They can see it. Ask anyone in Asia or the Middle East what the future looks like. And yet the populations of the English-speaking countries seem mostly unaware. They think that nothing has really changed. And they think that because no one has told them the truth. Their media outlets are corrupt. They lie to their readers and viewers, and they do that mostly by omission. For example, since the day the war in Ukraine began, American media outlets have spoken to scores of people from Ukraine, and they’ve done scores of interviews with Ukrainian President Zelensky. We ourselves have put in a request for an interview with Zelensky. We hope he accepts. But the interviews he’s already done in the United States are not traditional interviews. They are fawning pep sessions, specifically designed to amplify Zelensky’s demand that the U.S. enter more deeply into a war in Eastern Europe and pay for it. That is not journalism. It is government propaganda, propaganda of the ugliest kind, the kind that kills people. At the same time, our politicians and media outlets have been doing this, promoting a foreign leader like he’s a new consumer brand, not a single Western journalist has bothered to interview the president of the other country involved in this conflict, Vladimir Putin. Most Americans have no idea why Putin invaded Ukraine, or what his goals are now. They’ve never heard his voice. That’s wrong. Americans have a right to know all they can about a war they’re implicated in, and we have the right to tell them about it because we are Americans, too. Freedom of speech is our birthright. We were born with the right to say what we believe. That right cannot be taken away no matter who is in the White House. But they’re trying anyway. Almost three years ago, the Biden administration illegally spied on our text messages and then leaked the contents to their servants in the news media. They did this in order to stop a Putin interview that we were planning. Last month, we’re pretty certain they did exactly the same thing once again, but this time we came to Moscow anyway. We are not here because we love Vladimir Putin. We are here because we love the United States. And we want it to remain prosperous and free. We paid for this trip ourselves. We took no money from any government or group, nor are we charging people to see the interview. It is not behind a paywall. Anyone can watch the entire thing shot live to tape and unedited on our website, TuckerCarlson.com. Elon Musk, to his great credit, has promised not to suppress or block this interview once we posted on his platform X, and we’re grateful for that. Western governments, by contrast, will certainly do their best to censor this video on other, less-principled platforms, because that’s what they do. They are afraid of information they can’t control. But you have no reason to be afraid of it. We are not encouraging you to agree with what Putin may say in this interview, but we are urging you to watch it. You should know as much as you can. And then, like a free citizen and not a slave, you can decide for yourself. Thanks.”

This Is Important: Two Sharp Minds Discuss Reality

05/02/2024

By Randall Richards
If you’re still trying to figure out whether you’ve been fooled by the powers that be, or, you don’t want to know, then you owe it to yourself to watch this interview. Put aside your preconceptions of Tucker Carlson, and Russell Brand. Step outside your normal narrative, your normal media box, and consider what these two sharp minds are discussing. You just may come away with a broader perspective, an awakened world view. I’m sorry to say, you’ve been fooled, and lied to. As hard as it is to believe, I ask that you consider the possibility that the government does not have your best interest in mind.

Recently I’ve encountered a few people in my day that have been know-it-alls. They simply can’t understand how anyone could think reality is other than the way they perceive it. In short, anyone who thinks Trump did anything good, is a nut job. While I wouldn’t want to spend a weekend with him, and frankly will be voting for RFK Jr, not Trump, Orange Man is not bad. He’s strange, but it’s almost beside the point what my view of Trump is. I’m probably ideologically a liberal at heart, but that train left the station a long time ago. The left is unrecognizable now to what it once was. RFJ Jr will tell you that.
So I ask again, take off the blinders. I’d rather wear a tinfoil hat, (metaphor) than blinders. Good luck with your journey, and if you have questions, I’ll be here for you.

Info Overload? Yep.

The Alex Jones Interview, with Tucker Carlson

08/12/2023

I had been listening to Alex Jones on shortwave radio, before he was on the internet, maybe before there was internet. Watch this interview, and you will learn something. It even may be your gateway to the truth. Although I’ve written about this before, it’s worth repeating, that caustic characters, (which at times, Jones can be) in retrospect, weren’t caustic enough. People like Edward Brown in NH, the late William Cooper and Jones, were and are simply trying to slap us out of our hypnotized stupor. Ed Brown actually said to my face, before he was locked up and they threw away the key, “It’s all very nice that you’re researching the truth, and treating it as “a hobby” (which I did until a few years ago), “But what are you actually doing about the situation we now find ourselves in?” I took offence to this side-arm toting stalwart’s comment. But in retrospect, he had a point. Now I respectfully say what’s on my mind, because I have just as much right to do so as anyone. I’m also doing more, which I’ll share in another post soon, but for now….

Tucker Carlson’s intro transcript:
“We have a ruling class in the United States defined by its hatreds. Not its loves, not its hopes, but by its hatreds. They hate all kinds of people, large groups of people: the deplorables, the bitter clingers, America’s entire blue-collar population, the unfashionable people. They’re hated by the people who run our country.

But no one is hated more by them than a man called Alex Jones. Alex Jones is the single-most-censored man in all American history. He was the first media figure in our history to be completely erased in one day. De-platformed. Alex Jones was de-platformed before it was a common term. And not just de-platformed — sued, attacked. They attempted to criminally charge him.

It’s worth a watch. It’s important.


What did Alex Jones do wrong? Alex Jones didn’t rape anybody. He didn’t loot Macy’s. He didn’t burn a police station. He didn’t invent a fake cryptocurrency and loot pension funds. He didn’t start a pointless war that made this country poorer and more disorganized. He didn’t open the southern border. No. Alex Jones had opinions that deeply rattled the people who run America. In fact, rattled a lot of us.

And I’ll just confess that I first heard of Alex Jones when he questioned the official story behind 9/11. And I, speaking for myself, was deeply offended by this. I didn’t take any time to find out what he was saying, but I was bothered by the idea that this defining event in American history, which changed the life of everyone who lived here then, might not actually have unfolded as we were told it did. And that possibility was too destabilizing. And I remember feeling resentment toward Alex Jones for saying that.

But several years later, I went up in Austin, Texas, and through a chain of circumstances, wound up meeting Alex Jones. And I learned what everyone who has met him now knows, which is Alex Jones is not a crazy person. Alex Jones has said pretty far out things on TV from time to time. Not that far out. He hasn’t said men can become women or Ukraine is a democracy. But within the bounds of, say, cable news, pretty far out.

But fundamentally, Alex Jones is right about a lot of things. And, in fact, that’s why they don’t like him. Alex Jones has an uncanny, really an amazing ability to predict events before they happen. He has called it and he’s done it on tape again and again, to the point where it’s a meme on the Internet. “Alex Jones prophet,” not conspiracy nut, prophet. But when you dig into Alex Jones’s predictions, they are so spot-on that it’s remarkable.

How does he do this? We’re guessing there’s a kind of spiritual sensitivity to Alex Jones. Maybe that’s his secret. He was displaying this years before the average person in this country even thought about matters like that. Now it’s pretty obvious to most people that the current war going on in this country is taking place in ways you can’t see it most of the time. But ten years ago, people were not thinking that way. Alex Jones was. And so, we thought it’d be interesting to sit down and talk to Alex Jones, the man. He joins us now in our studio.”

Tom Renz & Tucker Carlson Call it Straight

28/11/2023

By Randall Richards
If you don’t listen to anything else but these two people speak this week, and also share, you’re doing a good thing. Listen to the ad-free the audio file below:
Tom Renz is a prominent U.S. attorney, political commentator, educator and businessman. He has gained national attention for his work challenging the pandemic related policies and mandates as well as advocation for individual liberties, medical freedom and informed choice.

Tom Renz on Alex Jones and Tucker Carlson speaking recently. Both are incredibly powerful deliveries which are on audio file below.


Tucker Carlson who was recently fired from Fox News as a news-show host, because his views didn’t fit the narrative, now has a feed on Twitter/X.
Renz was a recent guest on the Alex Jones Show. On that same episode, Jones also played the audio version of Carlson’s recent speech.
These are two audio files you might want to share with anyone awake, to help them with a sense of perspective, to semi-awake people to help them over the fence, and even to those asleep as a Red Pill.
