Exposes Corporate Media For Reporting Syria Misinformation
By Brandon Turbeville [Full original column here]

Ever since having utterly destroyed a smug mainstream journalist at a UN Summit over corporate media’s claims that they had sources inside East Aleppo, hospital bombings, and other “atrocities” committed by the Assad government, Eva Bartlett has been the subject of a corporate media smear campaign.

Corporate media outlets and their NGO talking heads have maligned her as a “Russian agent,” a “Syrian agent,” and, probably the most ridiculous of all, even a racist (meaning white supremacist). This last one, of course, is a hallmark of the more NGO-funded or mentally handicapped SJW contingency, the usual suspects who compulsively make this accusation. The argument is that saying the alleged “revolution” of bearded jihadist freaks was funded and orchestrated by the West is to deny that Arabs have the ability to orchestrate their own subhuman revolution of savagery. (Yawn.)

Still, this is quite a resume for a Canadian woman writing for alternative media outlets who can afford to pay very little for contributors (if at all) and traveling to places like Gaza and Syria on a shoestring budget in often rather unpleasant conditions. With Russia taking over the world and all, it’s surprising they couldn’t at least find better travel arrangements for one of their agents (or at least a .com domain! After all, the Russian hacking ability knows no limits, right?). It’s also odd that a white supremacist would find her life’s calling defending the rights of brown people against Western, largely white, nations. But I digress…

The assertions made against her are so baseless and incredibly imbecilic that they do not warrant refutations, especially since her detractors will simply invent another attack when the current one no longer works. Today, a racist Russian/Syrian agent. Tomorrow an anti-white capitalist pig, perhaps. Only time will tell.

But, despite the smear campaign, none of the corporate NGO attackers ever address a single claim she makes. Instead, they go right to accusations, over-talking, and name-calling. If her statements were so bogus, they would be easy to refute, right? Still, there is no debate, only catcalls. The reason for this approach is simply because each time one of the mainstream media drones or an NGO fanatic engages her in an actual debate, they end up getting their asses handed to them on internationally broadcast programs.

Manufacturing consent in science: the diabolical twist
by Jon Rappoport [Full original column here]

“Science plays a larger and larger role in running the world. But much of it is misleading science, slanted, cooked, biased, stepped on, false, and invented out of thin air.” (The Underground, Jon Rappoport)

In the famous 1988 Noam Chomsky and Edward Herman book, Manufacturing Consent, the authors explore how media distort the news and employ propaganda, in order to bring about consent in the population.

This is nothing less than the creation of reality.

From so many directions, official science is shaping our future—that’s why it’s vital to understand the manipulations involved.

It’s one thing to say media collaborate to sell a false picture of reality, a picture which is then bought by the masses. It’s quite another thing to say media collaborate to PRETEND there is ALREADY a consensus of the best professional minds on a given scientific subject—when there ISN’T. Continue reading →

Why Russia?
by Justin Raimondo, via Ron Paul Liberty Report

I once had an online conversation with a journalist whose name you would instantly recognize that started with a question for me: “Why Russia?” Why, this person wanted to know, are we witnessing a hate campaign aimed at Moscow, decades after the implosion of international communism and the breakup of the USSR?

I tried to give him a coherent and comprehensive answer, but Twitter is not conducive to in-depth discussions of that sort, and so I filed it away as a question to be answered at a later date. And certainly now is the time to answer it: the Democratic party and its media minions are demanding an “investigation” (i.e. a fishing expedition) into the burning question of whether the President of the United States is the Manchurian Candidate: “Putin’s puppet,” as Hillary Clinton infamously averred. Our out-of-control intelligence agencies are furiously pushing the same line.

This echo of the 2016 presidential campaign is surely one major reason why the anti-Russsian hysteria has reached such a fever pitch. As Glenn Greenwald writes in a recent piece in The Intercept:

“[I]t’s used to avoid confronting the fact that Trump is a by-product of the extraordinary and systemic failure of the Democratic Party. As long as the Russia story enables pervasive avoidance of self-critique – one of the things humans least like to do – it will continue to resonate no matter its actual substance and value.” Continue reading →

Join the multitudes[1] recovering their property due to the Hendrickson Discovery
… and share it forward, esp. to key libertarian and alt-media op leaders
Source material: Pete Hendrickson [losthorizons.com]

Editor’s note: The following guest column is a composite of three columns by Mr. Hendrickson on his losthorizons.com site, which I cannot give you an unambiguous forever page reference to—but these columns are currently occupying the front page of the newsletter on the losthorizons home page. In any case, this is VERY IMPORTANT INFOR-MATION he’s conveying, and everyone in the CtC Patriot community must[2] spread the word. [Emphasis on Tweeting and/or emailing to the list of ‘key libertarian and alt-media’ journalists that Pete provides at the bottom.]

The U.S. Income Tax: An Excise On The Profitable Exploitation Of Federal Privilege
The U.S. Ignorance Tax: The Profitable Exploitation of Confusion About The Income Tax

So, The First 2016 Victories Are In!

AS IN EACH of the last 13 years at around this time, I’m very pleased to post the first of the new year’s government admissions of the correctness of CtC. On each of these occasions I recall with ever-greater amusement the smug expressions of skeptics over the years to the effect that, “These ‘victories’ you tout are just mistakes that slipped through the cracks. This won’t go on long…”

Right.

I trust I don’t need to comment at any length on how continued denial– or even just distancing oneself from the truth– is a shameful intellectual dishonesty. Perhaps I DO need to observe one point on this subject though: It is only the “alt-media’s” intellectually-dishonest refusal to acknowledge and help spread the liberating truth about the tax uniquely revealed in CtC that has kept that truth from sweeping across America.

How the mind treats “impossible things that couldn’t be happening”
By Jon Rappoport [Full original post here]

I recently published an article that highlighted the numbers of medically caused deaths in America.

When little fragmentary stories about this fact emerge in the mainstream press, they’re one-offs. There is no serious follow-up and no deep investigation. Therefore, the public isn’t aroused.

On May 3, 2016, the Washington Post ran an article detailing deaths from medical errors. This bomb dropped: doctors’ errors account for “about 9.5 percent of all deaths annually in the United States.”

Let that sink in.

Roughly one out of every 10 deaths in the US is caused by medical errors. (Under “errors,” you can include a wide range of toxic treatment.) Continue reading →

Is it because we murder their women and children?
By Kevin Spicer

I wonder if Trump understands that targeting the innocent family members of even “real” terrorists is, in itself a form of terrorism?

That’s right, the United States thinks the “War on Terrorism” should be fought, at least in part, by committing terrorism!

It’s the same ol’ same ol’. Obama had “Terror Tuesdays” where he selected individuals that needed to be murdered via drone strike. And even though Trump said he wanted to stop invading sovereign nations and removing heads of states, it appears he too is powerless to stop the Military Industrial Complex from going around killing whoever a secret group of powerful politicians thinks needs to be murdered. (Along with their wives and families.)

At least Trump is sacrificing young girls and mothers for REAL “terrorists,” in contrast to the so-called “terrorism” of those who merely fight back against the US military when their countries are invaded. (Hmmm, I wonder if I would be classified as a “terrorist” by some foreign invader to our country if I fought back and tried to kick out the invaders?)

How the Rockefellers coopted modern medicine and used polio to create vaccine mythology for profit
by Bob Livingston, Personal Liberty [original column here]

Excerpt:

As the 19th Century turned over to the 20th, John Davidson Rockefeller’s Standard Oil Trust was coming under increasing public pressure, receiving mounds of bad publicity and was even beginning to feel political pressure even as the company amassed more power.

In 1892 the Ohio Supreme Court had declared the Standard Oil Trust to be an illegal monopoly and ordered its dissolution. The company complied with the court’s order in appearance, but in reality the directors and trustees all held their power and positions and, if anything, the company just amassed more power and wealth as it diversified.

U.S. government action to break up the Trust began in earnest in 1901 with actions to charge the Trust with violation of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act that had been passed in 1890. In addition to oil and gas companies, refineries, transportation companies and banks, Rockefeller owned politicians and the political process.

So Rockefeller, the richest man in the world, was becoming “the most hated man in America” by virtue of the negative press over his monopolistic practices and his bucking of the government’s actions to break it up. Now he sought to own the public relations by bribing public opinion through a pretended interest in their health. [1] Continue reading →
