Twitter has suspended Naomi Wolf, for trying to post this two-minute video, in which he merely reads aloud a press release from Oregon State Sen. Kim Thatcher’s office, concerning SB 872, her bill to ban vaccine passports and mask mandates in that state.
Twitter is itself a menace, wholly (dare I say it?) un-American in its arbitrary and authoritarian censorship. I stopped using Twitter months ago, having been shadow-banned, just as I’ve long been on Erase-book. To hell with both of them, and the state agencies covertly in cahoots with them.
We need urgently to bust them up. They’re now too big, their censorship becoming downright dangerous. Let’s think about how we might use the antitrust laws to disintegrate them both—and Google, too, of course (or Google most of all), as well as Amazon.
That something wicked this way comes, and that it may concern an “alien invasion” putting 9/11 in the shade, is (as I’ve noted) speculation based on the sudden prominence of UFOs and the possibility of (hostile) life on “other worlds,” etc., within the larger context of the PANIC PROPAGANDA drive that started, in a sense, with the “Islamist attack” on the Twin Towers, then continued through the climate terror starring Greta “I Want You to Panic” Thunberg and Xtinction Rebellion (a terror that is far from over), and that has reached a sort of climax with the unprecedented global terror of “the virus.”
I say “sort of climax” to leave room for what may well be coming next, whether it’s a bogus “alien invasion,” bogus Russian/ Chinese “cyber-attack,” engineered food shortage (like the famine in Ukraine gone global), deliberate power outage, or two of them, or three, or all of them at once. When it comes to the designs of the elite, one always must remember Edgar’s wise words in King Lear, “The worst is not/ So long as we can say, ‘This is the worst.'”
Concerning that “invasion” from another world, let’s note the current blast of ads for “War on the Worlds,” Season Two, from Epix (see the attached); and also this piece by the now-irrelevant Caitlin Johnstone, for the now-largely-irrelevant Consortium News, both having decided to go Chomsky on the apocalyptic war now being waged on nature and humanity itself—which is to say that they’re ignoring it, by acting like it’s 2019, and all the usual lefty issues matter just as much as ever, if not more then ever: e.g., “Caitlin Johnstone advises readers to question the latest episode of Cold War propaganda.” That’s the subhead of her latest in Consortium News, “Media Using UFO Report to Stir Arms Race.” https://consortiumnews.com/2021/06/04/media-using-ufo-report-to-stir-arms-race/
Yeah, well, maybe. Maybe not; and if the purpose of what seems to be a whole lot of predictive programming is not to “stir [an] arms race,” but to prime us for an “unprecedented” hit by “terrorists” from Outer Space (I put “unprecedented” in scare quotes, because it will have been “precedented” by Orson Welles’ 1938 radio adaptation of War of the Worlds), then Caitlin’s piece, and Consortium News, will have been part of that propaganda drive, which, at this point, is somewhat more concerning that the Cold War propaganda drive against the Kremlin.
I don’t mean to single those two out (Caitlin and Consortium News), since such perverse blindness to reality is not at all unique to them, but widespread (one might even say “pandemic”) all throughout the left today, which is most certainly on the wrong side of this all-important fight. Some might say that “the left” is the wrong side—a credible position, what with Amy Goodman, Michael Moore, TruthOut, The Progressive and all too many others doing full-time fear-porn for the worldwide COVID-19 “vaccination” drive, their efforts quite impossible to tell apart from the obscene fear porn that permeates the New York Times. Then there are other cases of the same astonishing business-as-usual tunnel vision that’s afflicting Caitlin Johnstone and Consortium News; I’m thinking mainly (and sadly) of the revived CovertAction, which I’m not sure Philip Agee would approve.
In any case, this is just a preface to an email by my friend Matt Witt, occasioned partly by my last email on this subject of the coming fear campaign—which will be less effective, the more of us become aware both of its likelihood (while hoping that we’re wrong) of its likely theme; Matt runs down a number of them here.
Those following some exchange here and/or from Mark Crispin Miller’s feed, News From Underground, may be tracking news item spikes in UFO storylines.
I only noticed these after Mark called them out. I write now about what could be correlated. Anybody here knowing more than average about Basel III, please chime in. Forgive me if I come late to the discussion.
I learned this weekend about the Basel III agreements, a package of phased in financial regulatory reforms from the EU with major implications for financial markets in Europe and the U.S.
June 28th there is scheduled Basel III rule adoptions (CRD 5 and CRR 2) with direct effects on precious metals exchanges for European banks that will exert enormous pressure on the U.S. bullion market. Reddit’s Wall Street Silver and any number of YouTube doomsday preppers have been raising flags on metals markets for quite a while, inspiring the Spartacus-like movement on silver shorts a few months back.
The June 28th deadline might be postponed. But the writing seems on the wall for the derivatives markets in gold and silver.
If the U.S. COMEX were to collapse under these pressures, silver and gold values could sky-rocket as the USD incurs major inflationary pressure.
For that matter, and to MCM’s premonitory warnings: From (reputed) cyber-attacks in New York recently (and those occurring in other states weeks ago), to Klaus Schwab’s prediction of these months back, some disaster-managed scenarios seem quite plausible.
Links below include: 1) June 3 piece in NYT that fits the limited hangout model to a tee; 2) how Basel III will affect precious metals markets; 3) and a fact sheet on the June 28 adoptions (from piece written in 2019).
The NYT piece is pretty startling. The insinuation that Russia and/or China “could/might/maybe/who knows/” possess super-sonic jet capacity like what navy jet pilots have logged as UFOs, means that a major incident of implied/imputed UFO-linked provenance on U.S. soil could trigger pandemonium and martial law here if not also abroad, furnishing the U.S. State Dept. cover for any number of Orwellian initiatives; all of which would hyper-vilify “conspiracy theorizing” about real causes of financial collapse and the WEF agenda for UBI and digital currency adoption, to say nothing of security measures in population management.
To Mark’s points about the vaccine agenda needing a booster shot: these scenarios could actualize Operation Warp Speed in a matter of weeks.
For whatever that’s worth.

“The vocation of the intellectual is to let suffering speak, let victims be visible, and let social misery be put on the agenda of those in power, and second, that moral action is based on a broad, robust propheticism that highlights systemic social analysis of the circumstances under which tragic persons struggle.” ~ Cornel West
“The truth is, Trump conservatives and ACLU-raised liberals like myself, Greenwald, and millions of others do have real common cause, against an epistemic revolution taking hold in America’s political and media elite. The traditional liberal approach to the search for truth, which stresses skepticism and free-flowing debate, is giving way to a reactionary movement that Plato himself would have loved, one that believes knowledge is too dangerous for the rabble and must be tightly regulated by a priesthood of “experts.” It’s anti-democratic, un-American, and naturally unites the residents of even the most extreme opposite ends of our national political spectrum.“
I think this insanity may possibly explain why masking was mandated in the first place, as it puts the “unvaccinated” in the same precarious position as “Gomer Pyle” in Full Metal Jacket—i.e., as the one whose failings burden everybody else, so that everybody else will turn on him, and force him to “improve,” even though “improvement” = death.
Spoiler alert: Just as “Gomer Pyle” ends up blowing his own brains out, so would any worker pressured, by the others, to get “vaccinated” be potentially committing suicide.
Although it came out four months ago, this gem is even timelier today than it was then, now that those hypnotized by this unprecedented COVID psy-op have their eyes wide shut not just to the ongoing democidal impact of the lockdowns, but to the ever-rising numbers of those killed or damaged horribly by the “vaccines” that the hypnotized were keen to have injected into their own arms.
But, while there is no enlightening them, we must keep working to enlighten everybody else, because such effort actually saves lives, which is precisely what the doctors/politicians in ostensible command only pretend to do, even as they work to do the opposite.
On Memorial Day, I stopped at Whole Foods on Broadway in Chicago, one of the food stores I regularly visit, to pick up a few things. The last time I was there I had suggested to an employee that she research the safety of the COVID vaccines before deciding to take one. I referred her to the warnings of scientists such as Sucharit Bhakdi, Mike Yeadon, and Delores Cahill. Another employee overheard me and clearly took offense. “If you’re not vaccinated you’re supposed to wear a mask” he said, “You’re on the honor system.” He lectured me in a very patronizing manner. Since I had recently shopped at many national chain stores sans mask and no one said anything (the mandates having been lifted at major stores a couple of weeks before), I was surprised.
I think talking with people and calmly expressing one’s views is one of the greatest pleasures in life. This accords with my view of free speech and the urgency of making information widely available to people so they can make up their own minds. To that end I have been a publishers’ representative for more than forty years, an independent contractor representing a variety of publishers, and I have sold books written from every imaginable point of view on just about every social and political issue. For example, I have worked for Encounter Books, The American Enterprise Institute, The Feminist Press, and Chelsea Green Publishing.
Throughout the SARS-CoV-2 crisis, it has been my conversations with working people that have kept me going. Many working people view the COVID rules for what they are: arbitrary, baseless, and politically determined. At the Jewel Food Store on Berwyn Avenue, I have freely expressed my views on lockdowns, masks, and vaccinations. I’ve never had any problem with any employee or manager at that store.
I went to the fish counter and there was the man who had lectured me. I bought my fish and turned from the counter and—surprise—there at my elbow stood another store employee, one I didn’t know. “Hi, Bruce” he said.
“You know my name?” I asked.
“Some of the team members have been talking about you. You advised an employee here not to get vaccinated. Have you been vaccinated?”
“You’ve been talking about me? That’s none of your business” I said. “That’s a private matter.”
“No, it isn’t,” he replied. “It’s a matter of public health.”
“If I asked you what diseases you have or what medications you take,” I said, “that would be a violation of your privacy, and this is no different.”
“I have to ask you to wear a mask if you are going to shop here. It’s the law in Chicago. There’s an ordinance that says if you are unvaccinated, you must wear a mask. If you won’t wear a mask, I will call the police.”
“I’ve been to Jewel, Walgreens, Verizon, Trader Joe’s, and no one has asked my vaccination status, or told me to wear a mask.”
“Put on a mask or I will call the police.”
“So,” I said, “please call the police.”
I went on shopping and paid for my groceries. As I was leaving, I saw that the manager who’d ambushed me—Eric Meyerberg—was standing at the customer service counter. I told him again that he was wrong to violate my rights. He followed me out of the store. I took about five minutes and explained the possible dangers inherent in the new, hastily administered vaccines. I told him I have relatives who died at Terezin. I explained to him that the Nazis used the fear of Jews as “disease spreaders” to stigmatize and isolate the Jews. I also told him I would notify activists and everyone I could about what he’d said. I told him that, although I had been shopping at the store since it first opened. I would shop there no longer.
When I got home, I called the Chicago Police Department and asked them if the law required me to wear a mask if I’m unvaccinated. “There is no law in Chicago that requires you to wear a mask,” I was told. “Stores can set their own policies. If you violate those policies and they call the police, the police might escort you out of the store, but that’s it.”
I called Eric Meyerberg and told him he had given me patently false information and that there is no law or “ordinance” that requires me to wear a mask or tell him my vaccination status. He mumbled something about the “store’s legal team” keeping him informed.
I do not appreciate being tracked, monitored, and ambushed anywhere I do my shopping, preferring that the employees respect my privacy and my dignity. Clearly, Whole Foods respects neither.
