Putin prefers dealing with the “devils that he knows” than risking a repeat of Trump’s unpredictability.
Putin confirmed on Thursday during the Eastern Economic Forum’s plenary session that his previously stated support for Biden now extends to Kamala, yet friends like the famous dissident Kim Dotcom and foes like the BBC’s Russia Editor Steve Rosenberg don’t believe him.
The first tweeted that it’s a “Grandmaster Chess” move on the Russian leader’s part while the second speculated that this is being done to discredit the Democrats. The reality though is that Putin is being sincere. It was explained earlier this year that “It’s Reasonable For Putin To Prefer Biden Over Trump” because...
“1) Biden has the support of the ‘deep state’s’ ruling liberal-globalists; 2) this faction is expected to remain in power even if Trump wins; and 3) they could carry out more anti-Russian provocations to discredit him in that case just like last time.” This insight still holds true and accounts for why he now supports Kamala since nothing has changed in the six months since he publicly backed Biden.

Unraveling the Enigma: Israeli Germ Warfare and Morgellons
Morgellons disease remains one of our most controversial and perplexing medical conditions. Characterized by the emergence of fibers or filaments from the skin, accompanied by symptoms such as severe itching, skin lesions, and a sensation of crawling, Morgellons challenges conventional medical understanding. The disease's elusive nature has led some to speculate about its origins, with theories suggesting connections to experimental technologies or even germ warfare.
The Mystery of Phosphorescence and Filaments
A striking feature of Morgellons disease is the reported phosphorescence of the filaments associated with the condition. Patients often describe these fibers as glowing or emitting light, particularly under ultraviolet (UV) light (Miranda et al., 2018). Phosphorescence, a type of photoluminescence where the material absorbs light and re-emits it over time, is rarely observed in biological contexts, especially in human pathology (Torre et al., 2020).

Some Americans might no longer feel comfortable living in the US after the “deep state” de facto criminalized the First Amendment in certain political contexts.
The Justice Department indicted two Russians on Wednesday who they allege secretly ran a US-based content creation company that platformed notable conservatives. Here’s the press release, the full indictment, and a report naming some of the conservatives who were caught up in this operation. One of the unwitting pundits was Tim Pool, who put out a strongly worded statement denying that the investigated company had any editorial control over his work. He also condemned Russia and Putin too.
On the same day, the State Department designated Rossiya Segodnya and five of its subsidiaries – RIA Novosti, RT, TV-Novosti, Ruptly, and Sputnik – as “foreign missions”, which coincided with the Department of the Treasury sanctioning them as well. Scott Ritter, whose home was raided by the FBI last month on the reported pretext of him failing to register as a “foreign agent”, subsequently announced that he’s ending his cooperation with RT and Sputnik in order to avoid possible legal trouble.
He can’t be faulted for that decision since it’s understandable that folks feel intimidated by what just happened, and others will likely follow his lead as well, thus depriving those top Alt-Media platforms of their American guests who’ve shared valuable insight on current affairs. Considering the US’ extraterritorial reach, some Europeans might also fear persecution if they continue cooperating with those two, which could make it even more difficult than it already is for them to find Western guests.

One scenario is that the FBI’s latest raids and the Democrats’ sudden attacks against Stein are meant to lend false credence to another Russiagate conspiracy theory for discrediting Trump’s “too big to rig” lead in the event that he wins.
The Democrats have all of a sudden zeroed in on Green Party leader Jill Stein in the latest sign that they’re getting desperate. Most polls had previously claimed that Kamala was leading Trump, but cynics suspected that this was all part of the party’s coronation of their new candidate after Biden dropped out. The truth is now coming out after even pro-Democrat Newsweek felt compelled to headline a recent article about how “Kamala Harris' Lead Over Trump Being 'Steadily Cut'—Poll” so as to retain some credibility.
Three factors have worked against her faux lead and inevitably exposed it as fraudulent: Americans haven’t forgotten how Trump miraculously survived an assassination attempt this summer; influential former Democrats RFK and Tulsi Gabbard endorsed him; and Kamala’s CNN interview was disastrous. The first even inspired lifelong Democrat Mark Zuckerberg to praise Trump as a “badass”; RFK and Tulsi command a lot of sway among dissident Leftists; and Americans remembered how inept Kamala is.
The confluence of these aforesaid factors is responsible for the Democrats attacking Stein all of a sudden despite having hitherto held off on doing so out of fear that it would give her free publicity. Trump’s real lead (i.e. not the manipulated polling put out by Democrat cut-outs) might already be “too big to rig” or is rapidly approaching that level. Stein might also once again siphon votes from disgruntled Leftists and thus lead to him winning back the presidency, which is the Democrats’ worst nightmare.
They’ve proven themselves unable to effectively counteract the three factors working against Kamala’s faux lead so their backup plan is to attack Stein like AOC and DNC spokesman Matt Corridoni began doing earlier this week. The first claimed that she’s “not serious”, “not authentic”, and “just predatory” in the sense that she could take enough votes from the Democrats to make a difference, while the latter defamed her as “a useful idiot for Russia” whose “spoiler candidacy” can help Trump win.

THE 2024/2025 COMMUNIST PLOT TO OVERTHROW THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC AS A PRELUDE TOWARD ESTABLISHING A ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT AND GLOBAL TOTALITARIAN SUPERSTATE
How the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and Spanish Flu Pandemic of 1918 one-two punch MO is being used as the blueprint for the 2020 COVID-19 Pandemic and 2025 Communist Revolution in the USA.
This warning exposé is one of most important ever posted by this Alt Media platform. For what the American people are facing is truly a life or death moment with the coming 2024 POTUS election and beyond.
Because Election Day is only a couple of months away and time is very short, please take the time to read or view the following essential links in order to be prepared for what now appears to be inevitable.

During a week of action focused on UN potential to end Israel’s genocidal attacks, I was part of a coalition that met with twelve different permanent missions to the United Nations. We urged that if countries that are parties to the Genocide Convention or the Geneva Conventions stop trading with Israel as international law demands, (cf. the July 19th advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice), the genocide will end quickly.
In each encounter at a Permanent Mission to the UN, its staff asked if we, as U.S. citizens, have addressed our government’s unwavering support for the genocide against the earth’s most desperate people.
It was a deeply meaningful moment when the Irish Ambassador to the United Nations showed our delegation a miniature replica of John Behan’s poignant statue depicting the Irish exodus – it showed weary, hungry people disembarking from a boat after a stormy ocean voyage.
“You have to see each one of these as a human being,” he said.
My mother was an Irish indentured servant first in Ireland and then in England. As things go, she was among the more fortunate. She never endured being chained day and night in the Middle Passage of a slave ship carrying captives here, or in a human trafficker’s overcrowded, lethally airless truck container. Nor did she have to cling to the remains of an overcrowded ship to keep from drowning after it capsized in the Mediterranean.
Life in Gaza is a desperate moment-to-moment ordeal of clinging to such wreckage, trying to stay above water, to stay alive, while both major U.S. political parties struggle to push you under.

Geopolitics is an approach to politics that stresses the features imposed on foreign policy by geographical location, environment, and natural resources. Geopolitics as a discipline contributes to the emphasis on continuity in contemporary political realism. The focal idea of geopolitics is that those who control the Eurasian landmass (Heartland) dominate global politics. Regarding this idea, Ukraine has always been a significant part of Heartland. Therefore, many great powers have been fighting to impose their control over the territory of contemporary Ukraine (or part of it) from the Middle Ages up to today (for instance, Poland, Lithuania, Russia, Sweden, Vikings, Ottoman Empire). Nevertheless, Ukraine up to 1923 (the creation of the USSR) was just a geographical notion but not a political-administrative subject.
The pre-2014 Ukraine was a country covering a huge territory of East Europe from the Carpathian Mt. in the west to the Donets River in the east being bounded by the Black Sea in the south. The neighbors were and still are Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Belarus, Russia, Moldova, and Romania. After the dissolution of the USSR after Cold War 1.0, an independent (Greater) Ukraine took necessary measures in order to as possible as reduce its economic dependence on Russia as well as on other ex-Soviet republics. For instance, such measures included an agreement to import the oil from Iran instead of from Russia. However, the exploitation of natural/mineral resources has been neglected while heavy industry, including iron and steel production, machinery, and transport production followed by aircraft, chemicals, and consumer goods, became an industrial priority. In essence, the food and textile industries are very important while grain is of crucial agricultural and export importance in the Ukrainian economy. However, in general, Ukrainian agriculture became very much damaged because of the 1986 nuclear catastrophe at Chernobyl as the large cultivating area became contaminated.

When NATO gathered in Washington D.C. several weeks ago, we held a counter-summit and a rally, did a bunch of interviews, wrote a bunch of articles, etc. All the videos and reports are at nonatoyespeace.org to watch and read at your convenience. I won’t try to read them to you. We had a minimal impact on U.S. and global communications about the NATO summit. We promoted Sevim Dagdelen’s book which is a bestseller in Germany. We promoted my and Medea Benjamin’s book, which is now being published in more nations. I have an absurdly short article on what’s wrong with NATO coming out in Congressional Quarterly.
NATO didn’t do much at its summit other than celebrate and commit to more of the same. It declared Ukrainian NATO membership to be irreversible, which didn’t mean it wouldn’t happen and didn’t mean that it would happen and didn’t mean anything else. The U.S. media interest was almost exclusively in terms of what the events might mean for the years-long presidential election between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Biden called Zelensky Putin and Harris Trump, and generally appeared befuddled. So, a change of face was seriously considered and eventually made, with Kamala Harris now promising the most lethal fighting force in the world and eternal devotion to NATO. But no question was ever raised about Biden’s support for NATO or his pretense that Trump is an enemy of NATO, even though Biden’s big claim was to have increased NATO military spending (something Trump did more of than Biden — Trump who now demands 3% of GDP) and to have added more NATO members (something made possible if not inevitable by a war that could have easily been avoided, and something likely to contribute to the vicious cycle of arms races, wars, and the risk of nuclear apocalypse).

On August 28, I listed some of the electoral procedures Democrats are putting in place in order to steal the November presidential election:
Minneapolis has designated those who entered the US illegally “justice impacted individuals” and put them into a protected class which apparently includes the right to vote.
The DNC has filed a lawsuit against the Georgia Election Board to block the rule that requires counties to ensure the accuracy of the votes prior to certification. If you remember, this was a question in the 2020 election when Georgia and other states’ votes were certified without authentication.
In Wayne County, Michigan, the 19th most populous county in the US (there are 3,244 counties in the US) which includes Detroit, Warren, and Dearborn, 98% of the poll watchers appointed to oversee the 2024 presidential vote are Democrats.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court overturned the ban against ballot drop boxes that allow fraudulent ballots to enter the vote count. Here is the NBC News headline: “Wisconsin Supreme Court overturns ruling that barred most ballot drop boxes”

With everything becoming so expensive and inflated in the United States and western nations, combined with a severe home affordability crisis, and companies shifting their models to reflect subscription, renting and leasing services, more and more people are becoming forever renters “who own nothing;” to the extreme end where some no longer even own basics such as the shirts off their backs, utensils, and other common items that normally would be owned.
The World Economic Forum has prophesized that this would be exactly the case by 2030. In 2015, the WEF published an essay that expressed what life would probably be like in 2030. The result were many people living in smart cities, living in shared, communal buildings that no one owned; and every single item one could think of was rented, shared, and delivered by drone. This since deleted essay partly reads:
Welcome to the year 2030. Welcome to my city – or should I say, “our city”. I don’t own anything. I don’t own a car. I don’t own a house. I don’t own any appliances or any clothes.
It might seem odd to you, but it makes perfect sense for us in this city. Everything you considered a product, has now become a service. We have access to transportation, accommodation, food and all the things we need in our daily lives. One by one all these things became free, so it ended up not making sense for us to own much.
