About Brian Wright

Hello, I'm Brian Wright, the proprietor and chief content provider to this Web opinion and review site. The Coffee Coaster (thecoffeecoaster.com) has been around since late 2006, and in early 2012 I finally decided to give the site a major makeover with this Wordpress implementation. My views are 'wholistic libertarian,' meaning focused on the spiritual--I like to use the word: essentual--evolution we will need, individually, in order to reach the New Paradigm of peace, freedom, and abundance. Let's help one another in the process.

Guest Column: Will The Drone Wars Continue?

“They hate us because we murder their women and children.”
By Daniel McAdams, exec director Ron Paul Institute [original column]

Dear Friends and Benefactors of the Ron Paul Institute:

…

With the inauguration finished and the protests finished (for now), the new Trump Administration has set about the business of governing. There may be a bit of inertia early on, as newly-confirmed Cabinet Secretaries take their positions and the second tiers are filled and so on. But early actions also tend to set the tone for an Administration and sharp breaks are noticeable right away.

That is why it was disheartening to learn that in his second full day in office, President Trump approved two drone strikes on Yemen — a country with which we are not at war but have been bombing since 2002. US military action in Yemen is ostensibly aimed at ridding the country of al-Qaeda, and the weekend’s victims were all said to be “al-Qaeda militants,” but in fact US involvement in Yemen has been designed from at least 2015 to support Saudi Arabia’s attack on and invasion of the country. After the Saudi-backed president, Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi, was ousted by fighters of the Houthi tribe, Yemen’s northern neighbor launched an all-out assault to return Hadi to power.

“Don’t Worry, Be Happy” in a world often seeming Hellbound in a handbasket

Part 1 of 2

No, this isn’t a Norman Vincent Peale rave about the power of positive thinking… or extolling the so-called Secret where wishing makes it so (or at least much more likely). Rather an attempt at some constructive cognition on how we as psych-ologically independent individuals can put our minds to rest, and thereby, in the long run, bring a semblance of sanity to the social environment that has become so overwhelming.

I’m addressing the column to Americans, mainly. ‘We the people’ still have a window of time available—a few months, a year, not much more than that—to put our own Humpty Dumpty back together… before the newly imposed US king and king’s men visit our homeboy “USA! USA! USA!” masses with the same acts of kindness bestowed upon Libya, Syria, Yemen, Ukraine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, and all the other ungrateful countries of the world during the former emperor’s eight-year term… and the elite redneck dictator’s regime before that… and the slick pedophile’s one before that… and…. We need to act fast, though.

I’ll get to the direct political cures in Part 2 of this post. They’re simple, yet require modest courage… on a wide scale. Many hands make light work. Continue reading →

Guest Article: Is Trump a JFK or an LBJ

Prof. Tony Hall and I discuss “Inauguration of the Trump Era”
By Dr. Kevin Barrett [Original column here]

Watch it here, and click HERE for story links.

… by Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor

Paul Craig Roberts, ex-pillar of the Establishment turned furious dissident, thinks newly inaugurated President Trump, like  JFK, poses an “actionable threat” to the powers-that-be: “If (Trump) is assassinated, we need to take up our weapons, burn Langley to the ground and kill every one of them.”

Richard Cohen of the Washington Post agrees that “Trump’s presidency is doomed.” But not by CIA assassination; he thinks Trump will follow in the footsteps of Lyndon B. Johnson, a big, blustering megalomaniacal narcissistic psychopath  whose character flaws confirmed Americans’ impression that he was “illegitimate.”

So who is right? Is Trump a JFK or an LBJ?

First let’s consider the case that Trump is the second coming of JFK. Roberts casts Trump’s inaugural address as:

A declaration of war against the entirety of the American Ruling Establishment.  All of it. Trump made it abundantly clear that Americans’ enemies are right here at home:  globalists, neoconservatives and other unilateralists accustomed to imposing the US on the world and involving us in endless and expensive wars, politicians who serve the Ruling Establishment rather than the American people, indeed, the entire canopy of private interests that have run America into the ground while getting rich in the process.

At the rhetorical level, Trump’s speech did sound like he was declaring a JFK-style war against the special interests. But will Trump follow JFK’s footsteps and: Continue reading →

Washington Post Grasps at Crazy Conspiracy Theory in Support of Hillary Clinton
By Wayne Madsen [full original column at this location.]

Via Paul Craig Roberts site:

The Washington Post, the newspaper upon which the U.S. government relies to castigate «conspiracy theories», has advanced one of its own.

The Post, which has a full-time reporter assigned to disparagingly report on «conspiracy theories» – the paper calls them «ideological movements» – is proffering its own kooky conspiracy theory. The theory is that Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was poisoned in a plot orchestrated by Russian President Vladimir Putin acting in cahoots with Republican Party presidential nominee Donald Trump. The Post’s story follows Mrs. Clinton’s collapse during a September 11 memorial service at the site of the former World Trade Center in New York. The validation by the Post of such a libelous and unsourced story dangerously worsens already-frayed ties between Washington and Moscow.

The Post story also cites previous unfounded charges that President Putin ordered the assassination, by radiation poisoning, of exiled former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko in 2006. After the Post article was published, other pro-Clinton websites added to the conspiracy theory laundry list the alleged poisoning in 2004 of former Ukrainian president Viktor Yushchenko. In a September 29, 2009, interview by this author with RT, it was suggested that the allegations surrounding Yushchenko’s poisoning may have been a fabrication by Kiev in an attempt to blame Russia. The video interview has since been removed from YouTube. Continue reading →

Obama the War Criminal Butcherer of Women and Children
By Paul Craig Roberts [Original column here.]

When you believe in things
That you don’t understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain’t the way — Stevie Wonder

Editor’s Intro:

Unless a CIA-led preemptive coup against Donald Trump is successful and leaves the current one in the saddle a bit longer, the man known by the system as Barack Hussein Obama will be leaving the Oval Office on January 19, next Thursday. Whoever he is or was, the 44th president is the epitome of the made man for the über-globalist syndicate running America and the Western World. What a complete artificial human being, a phantom, a nonentity! Just scour the Web for this organism’s actual reality, much stranger than fiction.

Unfortunately, the mirage person was the focal point for unleashing holy hell on real people planetwide, especially for what he boasted that he really ENJOYED most of all: with his hand on the joy stick (I’m paraphrasing only slightly), “I like killing women and children with drones; I’m good at it.” PCR captures the essence of our bona fide psychopath in chief as he walks out the door, and identifies all those wonderful things we need to remember him for. [Note: the Stevie Wonder lyrics seem apropos: so many people were taken in by the false front… and, as a consequence, untold millions of others paid the ultimate price. 

Hard to believe I voted for O in 2008! To save us from Warhead Bush. We are sooo lied to.

And if Trump inaugurates, I fear it will be deja vous all over again. Tho I didn’t vote for him.

Paul Craig Roberts:

There is no doubt that US President Barak Obama is a war criminal as are his military and intelligence officials and most of the House and Senate. Continue reading →

Brian’s Column: The Truth Tsunami

After being bottled up like an angry volcano, is 2017 when the truth lets loose?

Yes, I think so. Very good odds, I’d say.

As many readers know, I’ve long been a general ‘truther,’ from 9/11 to ‘smart’ meters, from GMOs to toxic aerosol skies, from corporate-government factory schools to debilitating lies about the federal income tax. All these and more represent a series of deception-enabled high-crime assaults by the Men of the Power Sickness (MOPS), which I show how to simply ‘undo’ in my recent novel, The Truman Prophecy, and its derivative spiritual-political philosophy of Trumanism.

Nevertheless the powers that be (PTB), the Imperial Wizards, have many tricks up their sleeves to thwart awareness of their plans, to keep people in the dark like mushrooms with automated, 24/7 systems for dumping TV perceptual-emotional BS fertilizer on them. Yet, with Englanders rejecting the European Union and Americans electing Donald Trump—not saying anything laudatory about the man (it looks like he’s going to turn into just another globalist-mob Swamp Creature), only his significance relative to people not blindly accepting the BS anymore—humanity is showing signs of awakening from decades of a New World Order-induced trance.

The lion’s share of the NWO mind control machinery is used to disguise high crimes of the most monstrous dimension and intent. I wrote a book, The Truth Torpedo, now a bit dated, but focused on several of these Threats. My own latest highest-priority Threats are identified in the Truman Prophecy and Philosophy, as follows: Continue reading →

… Using unverified claims as Democrats cheer it on
By Glenn Greenwald [full column from Intercept located here.]

In January, 1961, Dwight Eisenhower delivered his farewell address after serving two terms as U.S. president; the five-star general chose to warn Americans of this specific threat to democracy: “In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.” That warning was issued prior to the decadelong escalation of the Vietnam War, three more decades of Cold War mania, and the post-9/11 era, all of which radically expanded that unelected faction’s power even further.

This is the faction that is now engaged in open warfare against the duly elected and already widely disliked president-elect, Donald Trump. They are using classic Cold War dirty tactics and the defining ingredients of what has until recently been denounced as “Fake News.”

Their most valuable instrument is the U.S. media, much of which reflexively reveres, serves, believes, and sides with hidden intelligence officials. And Democrats, still reeling from their unexpected and traumatic election loss as well as a systemic collapse of their party, seemingly divorced further and further from reason with each passing day, are willing — eager — to embrace any claim, cheer any tactic, align with any villain, regardless of how unsupported, tawdry and damaging those behaviors might be.
