Politics & The CIC/Prez

Free episodes:

Did you listen to the video?
Yep
We have a problem with a corrupt media.
Yep
You think what you think about Trump because you've been fed a psyops by the media. I say that because I did a deep dive into all I thought I knew about Trump and discovered the psyops. Do you understand what the CIA's Project Mockingbird was about?
Mockingbird ended in 1963.
It's still happening - recall the 'Twitter Files'?
That's different, but no question that the MSM is "captured" — mainly by big tech and big industry in league with some government agencies.
I'm starting to think no one actually reads the posts here and certainly don't listen to the relevant videos. It makes dialog very cumbersome.
Yep
Main point: do you understand why Trump has been so feared from the moment he came down the escalator? He was universally loved before - and then once he announced his run the demonization began, the psyops against him was on steroids. Why? Why did they fear him?
Actually Trump has never been "universally loved". I and many others have never liked him, because to us, he's glorified the "Snake in a suit" persona in both his business and political ventures. That doesn't mean everything he's done is bad, but the TDS people just hand wave that.
Listen to the video. Pay close attention where it's explained that now the White House news feed is open to anyone, anywhere in the world. You don't have to be a CNN, or any other news outlet that signs up for it. Now we all have access to all of it - we do not have to rely on news media filters to report or interpret what was said - we can hear it for ourselves. This is transparency, this is freedom.
Interesting. I'll have to check that out — Okay there it is — Maybe he'll explain why he failed to keep his word on ending the war in Ukraine before he even took office and not to start any new ones.

Nope — just more propaganda. And of course comments are turned off. So much for free speech ( lol ).

I get that his grandiose ego probably deluded him into believing he could actually stop the war in Ukraine. But what about Iran? What about Gaza? What sort of apologist excuses or pas-the-buck blame games has he "Trumped up" for those?

Now Get the Real Story Directly From Trumped Up TV !

I'm not a Trump apologist, nor am I anyone who thinks anything 'promised' has to be delivered or it's a moral failing if it isn't. Events change. New actors enter the fray. We all know the Ukraine war was ready to be resolved in 2022 but Boris Johnson was sent to halt that. Johnson discouraged President Zelensky from pursuing a 2022 settlement during a Kyiv visit in April 2022. Other sources use stronger language saying Johnson pressured Zelensky. “The British government has become an obstacle to peace in Ukraine,” said the Stop the War Coalition. “The conflict there is developing into a proxy war between Russia and NATO and it is the Ukrainian people who will suffer the consequences.” We also know that there is a faction in the US Congress who have consistently, privately, counseled Zelensky to keep on with the war, sending massive amounts of money and munitions to Ukraine. Trump halted that. He has done what he could, in the moment. He is not omnipotent. He works within the prescribed limits of his office. Left to his own knowledge of the situation its very possible Trump could have worked a peace deal, but he walked into a 'Mafia snarl' that involved a seriously corrupt Ukraine, NATO, the City of London, the EU and members of his own Congress. The forces arrayed against peace have been prodigious.

Iran is a strange one. He resisted that 'military operation' but the usual suspects were pressuring. He went ahead with the operation. His call.

There are forces in the world - we call them the Globalists now (basically the Imperial System of wealth extraction) - that not only want war but need war to maintain the money flow. Trump is working with a very different political/economic paradigm - the American System of Political Economy (Hamilton) - that focusses on national sovereignty and production independence. It's the economic system - also called the American System - that functioned in the US through William McKinley (who was assassinated) and was our last real American System president). The death knell to our sovereign nation status was rung in 1913 with the founding of the Federal Reserve, initiation of the Income Tax and so it went.

My point is the playing field Trump is working on is complex and vast.

Nope — just more propaganda. And of course comments are turned off. So much for free speech ( lol ).

What are you talking about? What is propaganda? The video I posted, or the one you posted about TrumpTV? TrumpTV has naught to do with the White House feed situation I was referencing. TrumpTV may be using the White House feed, but it is not the feed itself. You'll like this from ComputerAssist: "Trump TV is a separate 24/7 streaming channel launched by the White House, distinct from the regular White House feed. It focuses on showcasing President Trump's highlights and major moments, while the standard White House feed typically includes broader coverage of events and speeches."

The live feed doesn't have comments - makes perfect sense because comments cannot have any bearing on a real-time feed. Nothing to do with free speech just common sense.

I get that his grandiose ego probably deluded him into believing he could actually stop the war in Ukraine. But what about Iran? What about Gaza?

No man who aspires to being president can be diffident and unsure of himself. What you call "grandiose ego" is what makes him successful. What helps is he has a pretty good sense of humor and is endlessly trolling his adversaries. He's also a good man but for that one has to do a very deep dive indeed. For his own reasons he presents as the abrasive New Yorker he probably is in some aspects of his public personality. He's a self promoter. A small negative, if one considers it a negative, when set against the scope of his workload and achievements.

I didn't say "promised" either. I said he didn't keep his word — and a man is only as good as his word. So there. Am I wrong?
. . .has to be delivered or it's a moral failing if it isn't. Events change.
I thought you said you weren't an apologist — but you're sure acting like one.

More of the same.

Oh please — It's simple. He just didn't have to go to war with Iran — period. There's no weaseling out of it.
What are you talking about? What is propaganda?
Pretty much the whole thing.

Oh — I get it. I wasn't watching the real Trump and co. I was watching actors on another channel pretending to be them. Just more fake news — right? :p
The live feed doesn't have comments - makes perfect sense because comments cannot have any bearing on a real-time feed. Nothing to do with free speech just common sense.
I've been on live feeds with live comments several times. The last one was during the Allison Inquiry. No excuses.
No man who aspires to being president can be diffident and unsure of himself. What you call "grandiose ego" is what makes him successful. What helps is he has a pretty good sense of humor and is endlessly trolling his adversaries.
Oh his sense of humor ( damn I forget about that ). You must be talking about the laughs he was having with Epstein and the locker room humor he was caught on tape performing. Ya great sense of humor. Apparently he does tip his personal cabbie very well though.
He's also a good man but for that one has to do a very deep dive indeed.
Um he hosted dinner for a genocidal maniac. So ya — really "good" guy.
For his own reasons he presents as the abrasive New Yorker he probably is in some aspects of his public personality. He's a self promoter. A small negative, if one considers it a negative, when set against the scope of his workload and achievements.
That's textbook MO for a snake in a suit chauvinist capitalist who uses position and power to manipulate markets for himself and his buddies — not that I'm suggesting Tump is actually doing that. He's a perfect saint. If only the rest of the world would just make the deals he wants, he wouldn't have to keep dropping bombs on them or extorting them with tariffs. Why is the rest of the world so stupid that they just don't get that? 🤔
 
@Randall There's no way that a decent, productive dialog can take place if this is all you can supply. I took a lot of time to compose my response and all you can give is dismissive comments. Why should I bother?

BTW I mentioned this 'conversation' to a buddy and he reminded me that part of my 'awakening' was the realization that Trump is right most of the time. :) I know you'll love that! But his point was about Iran - and what Trump promised was 'no forever wars' - like Irag and Afganistan - and that Iran would never have a nuclear weapon. He's kept his promise on both counts, at great political cost to himself btw.

I've supplied enough text and enough videos that if genuinely absorbed you should have a fairly good sense of what Trump is actually doing. You can't make reasonable sense of what is happening if the commentators you rely on are clueless about the American system, if they spend most of their time whipping up animus with ad hominem attacks, etc. I'm going to post a pretty massive video that goes into a lot of the history that explains what is actually happening. Its from the Promethean folks, and they are political activists so there's about 20 minutes where they go into the activism part (voting, strategies, midterms, etc) but the rest is a superlative source for understanding the Globalist vs Soveriegntist 'war' taking place now.

If you're so piqued about tariffs why don't you guys up in Canada do away with the tariffs between provinces?

I think the whopping part of the issue Trump is redressing with the world is being the sugar-daddy - via USAID NGOs, fighting wars for everyone, etc. No more money is flowing. At least as best as he can do so with the current Congress. His way would be to cut off all munitions to Ukraine. He's doing his best in difficult circumstances. Bottom line is the US was going under - Trump is resetting the playing field. Turning the ship around.


Two Systems at War: Trump’s American Strategy vs. UN's New World Order
Published [Video Run Time 2:10:52] Promethean Updates

"A live broadcast, with hosts Barbara Boyd, Susan Kokinda and Adam Sturman. Thursday September 24th at 11am Eastern. They take questions from the Youtube live chat and Newsletter Subscribers.

"This week: two speeches at the UN, two systems at war. Lula delivered the globalist gospel. Trump answered with national sovereignty — no human right to illegal immigration, a right to remain a sovereign nation, UNESCO’s mass-migration machine called out, the ICC named a rogue tribunal, and no world government / no global taxes. One system growing and prosperous; the other trying to commit a murder-suicide. The calendar is the strategy.

"On the board: Trump’s UNGA strategy versus Lula’s new world order, the sideline meetings with Xi and other leaders, the strategic map Trump is reshaping, and the media battle raging over all of it."

Trump is a cunt can't wait till the day he dies.
That's too harsh for me. I have no ill will of that scale toward anyone. Sure — criticize him, get him voted out, or hope he has some kind of revelation. I don't even know if any of that would matter. He'd just be replaced by another uniparty stooge. The whole system needs a revamp. But done in some way that doesn't have to intentionally physically harm anyone in the process.

Maybe you are right but he has removed more dreams and brought harm to more people than I can imagine. When he took office I agreed with a lot of what he said. I see him now as a manipulator and Tyrant who is power crazy and wants the world to revolve around him.

That was obvious when he was playing himself on The Apprentice. He uses people as disposable tools — just as a means to an end.
 
CNN has been banned (illegally) from the press pool in following the president around. In leu is the “my pillow guy’s” (former crack head Mike Lindell) news channel dubbed Lindell TV. I am truly embarrassed as an American, and would just like to apologize to all democratic humanity as the United States spirals further down Trumps toilet.

Not true. They simply are not invited into the White House - as is the case for hundreds of other outlets. Access to the White House is by invitation. They can cover the White House, and are in fact doing so, but they are now outside the gates, no longer invited into the president's office..

"The White House press pool is typically composed of a rotating group of journalists selected by the White House press office, which began taking control of the selection process in February 2025. This includes various media outlets, with a mix of print, broadcast, and digital reporters, ensuring a diverse representation in covering presidential activities.

"The selection process for these outlets has evolved, particularly since February 2025. The White House press office now determines which media outlets participate in the press pool. This change was made to streamline coverage and manage the representation of various media organizations. The pool includes a mix of print, broadcast, and digital reporters. This ensures that different types of media are represented, allowing for a broader dissemination of information."

"Previously, the selection of press outlets was managed by the White House Correspondents' Association. However, the shift to White House control has allowed for the inclusion of smaller, often right-leaning organizations, reflecting a change in how press access is granted. This structured approach aims to ensure that the public receives timely and accurate information about presidential activities while managing the logistics of media coverage."

You’re partially correct, as the Trump administration utilized a work around to bypass the 1st amendment in granting the crack head access, as only imagining in your world as the sun raises in the west while sets in the east.
 
You’re partially correct,

How could I be partially correct? I've quoted direct from AI. :) What is 'partial'? Where am I wrong?

the Trump administration utilized a work around to bypass the 1st amendment in granting the crack head access

What is this about? Could you tell the story? A 'work around' to bypass the 1st amendment'? How? Who's the 'crack head'?

CNN is very much free to continue reporting - and they are in fact doing so, showing up in all other venues - except the president's office.
 
This video is an important example as to why there is a serious problem with current mainstream media news coverage. Why the egregious lies of an outlet like CNN needs a handslap. The depth of information conveyed - and the profound historical understanding of what is currently taking place among the major power brokers - evident in Susan Kokinda's report and analysis below, cannot be found any where in main stream media. Instead they have the public fixated on UN walkouts, the autopen joke, and just in general nonsense noise. Listen to this video to see my point. The public is being managed with simplistic narratives imbued with low-grade emotional trigger points.


Trump is Erasing 50 Years of Foreign Policy (They Can't Stop It)
Published September 26, 2026: [Video Run Time 12:55] Promethean Updates


"This episode argues that media outrage over a White House 'autopen' joke and criticism of Trump’s summit with Xi Jinping obscures a deeper shift: Trump is dismantling a 50-year geopolitical framework associated with Henry Kissinger.

"Contrasting Chatham House’s 'China Rising, America in Decline?' panel and its Thucydides Trap framing - linked to Graham Allison - with Xi’s evolution from posing the trap as an open question to asserting it 'can be overcome' after Trump’s UN speech and claimed actions in Iran, Venezuela, the Shield of America, and the Greenland Treaty, alongside a push for re-industrialization.

"The script also highlights a UN Board of Peace session on Gaza focused on reconstruction led by Gazans and a new security structure involving Muslim-country troops, presenting it as ending 'outside forces' control. It notes Rubio’s permanent dual role as Secretary of State and National Security Advisor and frames his stance as reversing Kissinger’s legacy."
