The Road to Totalitarianism (Revisited)
It feels like it’s finally over, doesn’t it, the whole “apocalyptic pandemic” thing? I mean, really, really over this time. Not like all those other times when you thought it was over, but it wasn’t over, and was like the end of those Alien movies, where it seems like Ripley has finally escaped, but the alien is hiding out in the shuttle, or the escape pod, or Ripley’s intestinal tract.
But this time doesn’t feel like that. This time it feels like it’s really, really over. Go out and take a look around. Hardly anyone is wearing masks anymore (except where masks are mandatory) or being coerced into submitting to “vaccinations” (except where “vaccination” is mandatory), and the hordes of hate-drunk New Normal fanatics who demanded that “the Unvaccinated” be segregated, censored, fired from their jobs, and otherwise demonized and persecuted, have all fallen silent (except for those who haven’t). Everything is back to normal, right?
Wrong. Everything is not back to normal. Everything is absolutely New Normal. What is over is the “shock-and-awe” phase, which was never meant to go on forever. It was always only meant to get us here. Where, you’re probably asking, is “here”? “Here” is a place where the new official ideology has been firmly established as our new “reality,” woven into the fabric of normal everyday life. No, not everywhere, just everywhere that matters. (Do you really think the global-capitalist ruling classes care what people in Lakeland, Florida, Elk River, Idaho, or some village in Sicily believe about “reality”?)
To Hell or Not to Hell?

The Barbarian West — By the fifth century AD the barbarians had moved into Western Europe in significant numbers, bringing about the fall of Old Rome in what is now Italy in 410. Curiously, the barbarianism they brought with them, combined with the systematic brutality of Old Rome by the most brutal of them, the Franks, survives today. Indeed, we can state quite clearly that many in Western Europe have remained barbarians, knowingly or unknowingly supporting the ‘Frankish’ warlord aristocracy/ oligarchy which administrates (but not controls –control is from elsewhere) the Western world till this day. At first the barbarians took over only Western Europe, but then they expanded to its immediate neighbours in Eastern Europe, the Near East and along the African coasts. However, from 1492 on there began the Western European occupation and exploitation of the New Worlds. Barbarianism had literally gone global.
As we have said, the Franks (literally meaning ‘freemen’, that is, not slaves) (1) led the field among the barbarians, even renaming one country, Gaul, after themselves, as ‘France’. The word ‘Frank’ was generalised after Charlemagne who in the late eighth century massacred other less violent barbarians, the Saxons. Charlemagne founded a ‘Holy Roman Empire’ (in reality an Unholy Frankish Empire), whose intellectuals had been trained by Jews in Spain. Thus, tenth-century Muslims used the word ‘Frank’ to mean an ‘aggressive Western European’, as did eleventh-century Orthodox Christians in New Rome. In 1100 Baldwin I was enthroned in Jerusalem as the ‘first King of the Franks’. In the late eleventh century, Welsh chroniclers called the invading Normans ‘Franks’, as did the Irish and the Scots in the twelfth century, as did the Spanish and Portuguese French invaders, and did Poles and Czechs German settlers. In the sixteenth century the Chinese called marauding Portuguese and Spanish ‘Fo-lang-ki’, taken from the Arabic ‘Faranga’, from the selfsame word ‘Frank’.
There has been a Global Coup I + II + III
There has been a global coup. The covid-19 fraud was devised with a purpose; it was part of a plan which started in earnest back in the 1960s when a group of people met and agreed that the world was overcrowded. They decided to cut the size of the population down to a level last seen in the middle of the 17th century.
Some of the people who decided this were very rich. A Mr Rothschild, a Mr Rockefeller and some other bankers. And some of the plotters worked for a big, international, left wing organisation called the United Nations. It seems a strange mixture of capitalist bankers and commie bureaucrats but you have to remember that there is no discernible difference between fascism and communism – so they got on well together.
This strange bunch of evil people decided that they needed something with which they could scare the living daylights out of the world’s population; a threat, a danger that would enable them to persuade billions to accept a totalitarian world government and a smaller global population. It was suggested that a good war would be a good idea. Wars have always been popular with despots. They give a chance to introduce lots of new laws and there’s the added side effect that millions of people can be killed off.
The Wrecking Crew Will Be Overcome
In keeping with the principles of mass formation psychosis, the maliciously insane people in charge of national affairs will expect you to swallow ever-greater absurdities to maintain their control (and protect themselves).
We stumble into the horse latitudes of summer feeling trapped in the stillness. The heat disorders minds — and these are minds already scrambled by official propaganda. We are this close to a general recognition that the Covid vaccines were a deadly scam, even while Rochelle Walensky of the CDC keeps pushing boosters on TV and the entire public health bureaucracy stands by silently behind this murderous fakery. When their trials finally come, will they plead that they just didn’t know? How is that possible? (It’s not.)
The crisis of the vaccinated is coming and there won’t be any hiding it. Anyway, nobody expects actual news reporting out of the legacy media. It will get around through the alt.media for sure, and already is, but the real spread will proceed when all the everyday people see themselves and those around them get sick, and realize they have one thing in common: those vaxxes they submitted to. It’s already happening.
An Eastertime Carol
After wolfing down a heartburn-inducing Popeye’s Shrimp Tacklebox Combo for supper, Manhattan District attorney Alvin Bragg retires to his four-poster Sleep Number bed beset with anxiety about the grand jury he has convened for fulfilling his campaign promise to stuff Donald Trump into a state prison cell. From the wall-mounted flat-screen across from his bed, the specter of a of giant rabbit emerges, gaunt and grizzled, draped in chains and weighty padlocks.
“Who are you, spirit?” Bragg asks.
“I am the ghost of prosecutions past,” it moans. “This night you will be visited by three other spirits: The ghost of what you wish to be, the ghost of what should be, and the ghost of actually what-it-is.”
Oh, Gawd,” Bragg groans, his esophagus on fire with acidified hot-sauce residue.
The DA falls back into a febrile sleep, but wakens minutes later. The bedroom of his condo has transformed itself into a sunny street scene. He is riding an open limousine down Broadway through a blizzard of tickertape, the sidewalks filled with cheering citizens. Beside him sits a nubile person of the birthing persuasion, with supernaturally large infant-feeding glands, not unlike a certain star of adult films at the center of his brilliant case against the former president.
“I am the ghost of what you wish to be,” she says, her breath warm in his ear. “You’re a bigger star now than ever I was in life, and without all the mess.”
“Yeah? What’s that up ahead?” he asks.
“The steps of City Hall where you will receive your Nobel Peace Prize and be handed the nomination for governor, your stepping stone to the White House.”
“We gonna have to change the name of that place,” Bragg grumbles.

Feb. 18, 2023 China Rising Interview - (James Bradley, Jeff Brown and Katherine Watt, 30 min)
James Bradley: Hello, this is James Bradley. I am JB East out in Saigon, in Vietnam, and I’m here with JB West, Jeff Brown out in Normandy […] So, the reason we’re talking to Katherine today is that since early 2020, Katherine has focused her considerable skills on COVID-19 issues, including legal framework investigations. Now, what’s her background? Katherine earned a philosophy and natural sciences degree from Penn State in 1996. She has reporter chops. She was a reporter for a number of different newspapers. In 2003, she earned a paralegal certificate and has provided legal research and writing in constitutional law, civil rights, and environmental law. Katherine has published several independent journalism blogs. She’s worked on local food, water, and energy security campaigns, and she founded Bailiwick News in 2016 […] So, Katherine, can I tell you a story and then ask you two questions?
Katherine: Sure.
James: Okay. I published a book called Flags of Our Fathers, and Newsweek magazine said Bradley writes on the level of a 17-year-old and my family was upset for me. And I said they got it right. It took me five years to write the book. If I wrote on the level of a master’s degree, it would take me about two years. Kurt Vonnegut wrote Slaughterhouse-Five. It took him 18 years. It’s less than 200 pages. So, my point is that to make it simple, I’m not saying a 17-year-old isn’t very bright.
← Iran After That Persian Gulf Summit in Beijing Bankers Plan To Kill The Dollar And You – Really Soon
Janet Yellen, Treasury Secretary and ex-Federal Reserve Chairman, is presiding over the death of the dollar. Others are responsible for the bioweapons that are attacking us and our food supply.
Jamie Dimon at JP Morgan Chase is getting billions in deposits every day from depositors at small and regional banks. He is gladly depositing that money at banks like First Republic that are on a list of banks that must be saved. I heard a talking head say America only needs 4 or 5 banks.
How did we get here? It started with the assassination of President Lincoln whose non-interest bearing Greenbacks were the subject of derisive editorials in London newspapers in the 1860s. A hundred years later President Kennedy issued a few billion dollars in Treasury Notes which also bore no interest. If lone assassins did not despise interest free money, we would live in an entirely different world. Last year the taxpayers paid $706 billion in interest payments on a national debt that need not be. This was a gift from us to Bankers who gave themselves the right to charge us interest on money they created out of nothing.
In 1910 agents of the Rothschilds, the Rockefellers and the Warburgs drafted legislation for the Federal Reserve Bank which gave Bankers the divine right to create money, both printed and checking account, and to charge us interest on their creations. I wrote years ago that Bankers would in the future celebrate that Glorious Day when everything belongs to them and we have nothing. Eventually, interest payments would transfer all of our assets, everything we worked for in our entire lives, to the Bankers. In modern terms The World Economic Forum at Davos told us we would own nothing and be happy. By 2030 we would even be renting our furniture and our clothes from billionaires.
Joint statement of the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation on deepening the comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination in the new era

Joint statement of the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation on deepening the comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination in the new era
At the invitation of Russian President Vladimir Putin, President Xi Jinping of the People's Republic of China paid a state visit to the Russian Federation from March 2023 to 3, 20. The two heads of state held talks in Moscow. President Xi Jinping also met with Prime Minister Mishustin of the Government of the Russian Federation.
The People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as "the Parties"), declare the following:
One — With the unremitting efforts of both sides, the China-Russia comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination for the new era has reached the highest level in history and has continued to develop. The two sides reaffirmed the development of bilateral relations in accordance with the principles and spirit set forth in the Treaty of Good-Neighborliness, Friendship and Cooperation between the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation signed on July 2001, 7, the Joint Statement of the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation on the 16th Anniversary of the Signing of the Sino-Russian Treaty of Good-Neighborliness, Friendship and Cooperation issued on June 2021, 6, and the Joint Statement of the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation on International Relations and Global Sustainable Development in the New Era issued on February 28, 20.
The two sides pointed out that China-Russia relations are not a military-political alliance similar to the Cold War era, but go beyond this model of state-to-state relations and have the nature of non-alignment, non-confrontation and non-targeting of third countries. The relationship between China and Russia is mature, stable, independent and tenacious, withstanding the test of the new corona epidemic and the changing international situation, free from external influences, and showing vitality. The friendship between the two peoples from generation to generation has a solid foundation, and all-round cooperation between the two countries has broad prospects. Russia needs a prosperous and stable China, and China needs a strong and successful Russia.
NATO Engaged in Direct Aggression Against Russia
[June 22, 2022] A wider war is Washington’s goal: As I have many times written, the Kremlin’s Ukraine operation cannot be limited. Washington will not permit it to be limited. Washington has already widened the conflict, and is now widening the conflict further.
The insane Jewish neoconservatives who have control over US foreign policy have prevailed on tiny, helpless Lithuania to violate the agreement with Russia for the provision of Kaliningrad and has received a Russian ultimatum.
The moronic State Department spokesman Ned Price dismissed the ultimatum as “bluster.” The White House idiot says Washington backs Lithuania. In other words, Washington is egging on a wider war.
The conflict in Donbass has gone slowly, because it is a war in the midst of Russian people attached to Ukraine by Soviet leaders. The Russian troops are fighting under restrictions to minimize death and destruction in the Donbass region, from which Ukrainian forces are being driven out and destroyed. A wider war will not be fought among Russian populations. The world has never seen such recklessness as Washington and NATO are demonstrating.
The sordid and utterly corrupt Democrats desperately need a war in order to rally Americans to the government and prevent a Democrat wipeout in the election. In their effort to hold on to power, the Democrats and whore media are widening the war. This is dangerous beyond belief. The Russian government declared some time ago that Russia will never again fight a war on her own territory.
Israel seeking demographic change

Israel leaves no opportunity without exploiting it to bring new settlers to it. The Israeli government has prepared a plan to bring in French Jews in light of the significant decline in the number of Jewish immigrants from around the world in recent years.
In this context, Hebrew media revealed that the Israeli government is allocating a special budget in the general budget for the year 2023, as part of a plan to encourage French Jews to immigrate to Israel.
An expert on Israeli affairs, Ehab Jabarin, says, “The reason for targeting Jews in France in particular is due to the fact that many of them are of African descent, and they had arrived in France not long ago in an attempt to integrate into Western society. This fits perfectly with the extremist tendencies of the current government in Tel Aviv and its fascist settler ideology.”
The 1950 Law of Return enables any Jew from around the world to become an Israeli citizen entitled to numerous government benefits, including financial aid, tax breaks, free Hebrew courses, and a free flight to Israel. In 2015 alone, nearly 8,000 French Jews made what is known as Aliyah—ascent to the Holy Land—the largest number from any Western nation in a single year. Jabarin points out that those ideological components have always been a driver of the Israeli scene before any other consideration.
