As I read the news about the tragic events of January first, I was amazed at the intensity of the online speculation that surrounds them.
The problem is that the information we are given is being managed very carefully – not to share the truth, but to shape the narrative for the speakers’ purposes, whether it’s an online or newspaper story, a White House press secretary, or a law enforcement official.
The website/newspaper wants excited readers so they can make money by selling advertising. If they have a particular bias, their story will push their narrative – “Orange Man bad,” or “Government is evil” to keep readers coming back for more.
The White House, when it can get its story straight, has other narratives; “Biden is brilliant,” “Trump is evil,” “We are doing a great job running (ruining?) the country.”
Law enforcement relies on their crisp uniforms and shiny badges to give an air of authority and competence. Each speaker wants to reassure the public that “we are in charge, everything is under control, and the public is safe.”
But the worst kind of statement is one that seeks to deceive the public and peddle a story that suits their own purposes. Is their goal to prepare us for more similar attacks, or scare us into accepting new legislation that expands the power of the government at the expense of our freedom?
As I was finalizing this article, I came across a fascinating piece by Mike McDaniel, that pointed out media patterns in reporting both January first attacks.
“Throughout the Harris/Biden Administration, several patterns have emerged when what could be terrorist attacks have occurred: (1) the perpetrator acted alone. (2) The perpetrator absolutely, positively wasn’t trans… (3) It absolutely, positively wasn’t terror-related. (4) We’ll never know a motive. (5) Whenever possible, their race, sexual preference, nationality, Islamic names and other affiliations are covered up or only partially and grudgingly admitted…
We certainly don’t know all the government’s secrets, but their desperation to protect violent trans, to deny terrorism and particularly foreign terrorism is happening within our borders, and to deny there are any terrorist cells, domestic or foreign operating in America is obvious.
Why would they go to such lengths to deny reality? Admitting everything they’ve said, done and plan to do about trans, all they’ve done to protect other favored victim groups, illegal immigration and everything related to Islamist terrorism would be profoundly embarrassing and could even provoke investigations for collaboration and outright treason.”
Milt Harris also wrote about the obvious lies surrounding the New Orleans attack. “FBI’s Embarrassing Terrorist Flip Flop Raises Deeper Questions”
Joe Hoft says the Deep State and the RINOs are trying to deny Trump the presidency. He cites…
Recent terror attacks.
Recent actions by the Capitol Police.
Corrupt Judge Merchan’s ruling on Friday in New York.
The GOP didn’t fight for the House and Senate races that flipped to the Democrats after the election.
The Democrats have said for some time that they will not accept President Trump’s election win.
They did it four years ago and will do it again if they can. Under Biden/Obama we saw that all they really want to do is destroy America.
How often do we see public statements that are offered with fierce certainty, only to be completely disproven later? And what is the speaker’s reaction to being exposed as a complete liar? Usually they ignore the truth and simply move on to a bigger lie. Their purpose was to shape opinion and push a narrative, the truth is unimportant because their goal was achieved.
They are peddling false information to frighten the public and split us into warring factions. That’s how 5% of the population can control the other 95%. Keep them angry, confused, afraid and divided, so they can continue their massive corruption.
The good news is once you know they are lying you can read between the lines to discern a good part of the truth.
People from communist countries are used to media that is openly a propaganda arm of the state and when the announcer says “the rumors of a large explosion in Karendistan are not true, nor were 10,000 civilians killed in the blast,” they know exactly what happened. They are astounded by our gullibility.
So how do you separate the wheat from the chaff?
First, when we see a news report, even on a network like Fox News, ask “what aren’t they telling us?” and “what stories are they NOT covering?”
Second, understand who’s doing the talking and what narrative they are trying to push.
I have been very puzzled about the drone scare, and concluded later that passing a privacy-killing “anti-drone bill” might have been one of the goals. I was frustrated at all the wild speculation – are they aliens, Chinese, Iranian, or Al Quaeda? Were they U.S. drones being field-tested?
The speculation continues, often muddied with wild ideas that make no sense. It’s great for the news sites, but only stirs up panic, distrust and confusion.
It’s like we’ve been presented with a jigsaw puzzle with too few pieces, and unknown actors are constantly adding new pieces that weren’t even in the box.
Third, use basic logic and the process of elimination.
For example, saying the drones are a secret operation is ridiculous. If they were secret, they wouldn’t be flying at night with their red, green and white lights flashing like aerial Christmas trees.
Are they spraying poison or disease? Why would anyone use noisy, flashing drones for something that could easily be done by a truck driving through a neighborhood?
Are they searching for something? Again, why the bright lights? I’d search quietly to avoid attention.
Fourth, never assume these people have the best interests of the average citizen in mind. Whatever is going on is not good news, otherwise why would they lie about it? Our government is infested with Deep State actors who will use any tactic, no matter how evil or deadly, to maintain control.
I hate to sound like a “conspiracy theorist,” but how often do we uncover damning evidence only to find the conspiracy is true? Go no further than COVID that came from a Chinese “wet market” that could have the “spread” stopped in two weeks if we stayed home, to the idea of wearing masks and shutting down schools, to trying to force everyone in the country to take an experimental vaccine.
We only found out later that the masks didn’t work, the six-foot “safe distance” was a lie, and the vaccines were more deadly than the disease.
Was COVID a planned operation, or an accidental “crisis” that was used to gut election laws to permit the theft of the 2020 election? Or even more despicable – a plan to start depopulating our crowded planet?
But you don’t have to play along. Once you know what they’re up to you can stop the online negativity and bickering, use your common sense to have positive fact-finding, and unite against those who are trying to destroy your country.
Americans have woken up from the constant lies. We are demanding an end to corruption, a return to free expression, and honest elections.
