Kirk said:Despite this overwhelming evidence of betrayal,Would some still continue to look up to both of them? Sadly yes. Tucker has melded into their identity, as many cherished images in video clips, as well as being the most addictive source of effective tools to facilitate the microsecond satisfaction of "owning the libs." Matt: That's my answer to that above. A lot of people here will continue to cite Carlson as a source, even though he is a l-ar. Ben's doubling down on Carlson now twice today, once of course to you, and a completely political off topic irrelevant response to Pat Speer in a thread about rabbit holes!. And he's mentioned nothing about Carlson's now being exposed! Giving up Carlson is giving up the prime tool for "Owning the Libs".

Tucker Carlson called a Trump "a demonic force." So now that Carlson's been exposed as a l-ar. MacCarthy rewards him and places 41,000 hours of government film solely in his possession? And Matt Taibbi is still hoarding the cherry picked twitter files. And deliberately didn't get specific about any of Trump's attempted intrusions on Twitter, including Chrissy Tiegen's tweets. @RepDanGoldman · 8h Please explain to me, @SpeakerMcCarthy and @RepStefanik , how giving 40,000 hours of sensitive surveillance footage solely to one tv commentator is consistent with “transparency.” Transparency for thee but not for me.

I don't buy that. That's sort of assuming the average citizen has the same viewpoint as us. The CIA could be defanged or have their power curtailed by Congress, but they don't want to do it and they are under no pressure by their constituents to do it because there's simply no political will in numbers to do it.. Not surprisingly, I don't buy that either 1) There's probably nothing left in those files . Sorry Tucker fans, you should have known better! 2)Prior to Tucker. Anybody whose seen those files, says there's no smoking gun. 3)Biden, like Trump isn't really engaged in the issue and maybe hasn't spent 10 minutes on it. JMO 4) If there's no smoking gun, Why are they blocking the release of the files? Because they can. They have no fear that the content is going to radically change the status quo. And nobody whose been challenged here on that can support that notion with any facts. The Trump, Biden Pence scandals do help because there is now a public awareness of the over classification of files. You have 2 alternatives 1) to support Larry's or other's legal actions. or 2)How many people have cared enough to write their their Congress person? I have. I wrote Anna Eshoo and she's come out for the release of the files. I'm not sure if she came out just before I wrote her that letter. But I'm pleased she did. I don't have the numbers but it's your elected representatives that have the power to effect this equation. Do you think even 10% of formally come out for the release of the files? We hope to get some traction with the Oversight committee, but what a partisan mess that looks like! As far as identifying a government conspiracy of people who are frightened to death about the release of the JFK files. I don't think that group exists.There are undoubtedly, many more files that they are much more concerned about releasing. I don't think there's really any "there" there.. This is way down on their priorities. If you're serious, you have to make a concerted effort and at least do the minimum. If you don't want to do that. At least cheer on the people who are making the effort. Otherwise you're going to get the same results you've gotten for 50 years. JMO

Touche''--Jamie Raskin at Oversite committee hearings is very articulate and lists Trump weaponization of the DOJ.

That's right Doug, It's a white collar recession while in the blue collar economy there are almost 2.0 jobs available for every one person looking for a job! Ben's "Let the market decide what wages to pay" idea of starving the economy of workers to raise wages is self defeating and could never raise wages enough anyway. That's what we're seeing right now naturally, and wage growth is now slowing. What we really need is the first strengthening of Unions since the Reagan stranglehold that was initiated by the Republicans in the 80's.

Yikes! I had no idea this thread was still going on! Wow!, Now it looks like we were all in tacit agreement to bomb Nordstream. And what a great agreement it was! As it says here in this article, that throughout this war and since we bombed the pipeline, "Europe Turned an Energy Crisis into a Green Energy Sprint". Biden whose IRA, ( Inflation reduction act) will be a boon for green energy in the United States, has like some Svengali like powers! He has now succeeded in turning all Europe more Green as well! And now oil and natural gas prices are lower than they were before Putin's invasion as well! Bravo UK and Europe! I must admit, we had our doubts, we thought it would take you at least a few years to recover. But some of your stock markets are at all time highs! Stick with us!

More good news! A solid majority of Brits 53 to 34%! now think it was wrong to leave the European Union! Just a stunning victory for globalism! If their leaders can just listen to the cries of their people, and reunite with Europe. Then things should be a lot more manageable across the pond! Then nothing can stop us! Which is a heady prospect! Full speed ahead! https://www.statista.com/statistics/987347/brexit-opinion-poll/ ***** Chris: What seems abundantly clear to me is that there is a contingent on this forum that desperately wants this thread degraded and deleted. Wow! Chris . Glad I could walk you through your belief system and give you the courage to post! As I may have lost track, but you've got 17 posts on this thread since you made that statement.

Fox News reporter Jacqui Heinrich dares to fact check Trump and says: ‘There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised.'” Carlson tells Hannity about the traitorous Fox news reporter. Carlson told Hannity: “Please get her fired. Seriously… What the xxxx? I’m actually shocked. It needs to stop immediately, like tonight. It’s measurably hurting the company The stock price is down. Not a joke.” We also now see Tucker Carlson called a Trump "a demonic force." I'm sure this will be unpleasant for those at the forum who would give their life as a mammal to just be a fly on the wall when the Don and Tucker were having their Summit talks. .It must be crushing! Despite this overwhelming evidence of betrayal,Would some still continue to look up to both of them? Sadly yes. Tucker has melded into their identity, as many cherished images in video clips, as well as being the most addictive source of effective tools to facilitate the microsecond satisfaction of "owning the libs." https://www.mediaite.com/tv/get-her-fired-text-shows-tucker-carlson-wanted-fox-news-colleague-jacqui-heinrich-canned-over-fact-check-of-trump-election-lie/

Yeah man!, I don't get it Glenn!! Ok, maybe Glenn just wants his clothes ripped off. No big deal! And who did I get this from? Glenn himself, using it to perform his hair on fire ritual to his devoted fans, who never get tired of the spectacle! That's why Ben finds Glenn so "spectacular!" And Ben was one of the thumbs down! Sounds pretty torrid , don't be too surprised, it might be a hidden Valentine!

If I can draw an analogy. It's sort of like the Jim Di's forever haranguing Noam Chomsky. Noam Chomsky was a noted author well on his career path and made what he saw as a prudent career decision that he wasn't going to get sidetracked on the JFKA. You can castigate him for that if you will. But similarly, as Pat says, there's no upside at all for Stone to subject himself to Posner and Litwin on Rogan's show. At this point, under no circumstances is there probably going to be a dramatic upsurge in following for the film. And there could be a lot of downside for the reasons Pat mentioned.

The Fox News commentators took issue with the reporter's rejection of Trump's 2020 election lies. Now with the dominion voting scandal, we know through e mails that Tucker Carlson, Hannity, Ingraham and Pirro and all the Fox News personalities knew they were peddling the Big Election lie, and continued to do it , even as their viewer base suffered. We now know Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity discussed trying to have a Fox reporter fired for a Trump email fact-checking tweet. From one of Ben's most quoted CIA sources! below We know now Rupert Murdoch on 1/5/21 asked his on air personalities to finally come out and say Trump lost the election, but they refused. And Fox News and the Wall Street Journal (Murdoch properties!) are today acting like the Dominion News didn't happen. Still we'll see Fox video clips here.Which forever begs the question: When will Fox viewers admit they' were stupid! This said as we're heading now into the third month after the Tucker Carlson/Roger Stone, JFKA/CIA "Shot heard round the world" revelations!! https://www.businessinsider.com/tucker-carlson-sean-hannity-fox-news-reporter-fact-checking-trump-2023-2 Where is thy Deep State? All you guys whining about a deep state would never be ready for me. I'd have clear lines that would take the gloves off and make it easier for these clowns who violated the public trust to get thrown in jail! .

Now we have an old clip of Nikki Haley on Fox saying she's going to cut Social Security and Medicare. I've been talking about these clips of Republicans doing the same since at least 2019. The Democrats never used it in 2020, though undoubtedly they could have given them bigger majorities in the House and Senate. Though in fairness on a Presidential level, a Trumpist at the time would probably have voted for Trump no matter what policies he'd say in the campaign, and taking away SS and Medicare would have been for the Republicans like taking candy from a baby. But Biden won! But still, if the Democrats weren't silent about this all during the 2022 campaign. There's no way they would have lost the House! Then after the election, Biden now stumbles on it and it's gold! Geesh! Nikki Haley- I don't think that's going anywhere. What white male Trump voter is going to defect to Nikki Haley?

That was quite inflammatory,but sloppy Chris. You've neglected giving your sources again, other than your quote of Putin.. Why did this take 8 posts and is so now long winded? You don't know all about my thinking on this. But I said at the beginning "I don't necessarily believe the story because it comes from Hersch". But I also said if the U.S. unilaterally bombed the pipeline leaving Europe unsuspectingly without fuel. It is a hostile act. So if you had listened, you would have known your repeated projection on me that I would be so astonished if the U.S. was involved had no basis at all. And that's half your post! i made it so easy for you Chris. So you could have answered by simply saying "Yes". The U.S. (and maybe in your mind the U.K.) are unilaterally attacking the Europe's fuel supply, and the leaders of Europe are so cowed, they will accept it and put up and shut up and even risk being found out by their constituents. Which you're confident couldn't happen at all. So complete is the "Full Spectrum Dominance" of the U.S. over Europe.. Was that so hard?

You don't sound amused. Not in the least. You're emotionally charged. You've made a series of allegations and innuendo. You're simply being held accountable, and asked to defend you accusations. I'm not sure what you've chosen to be so upset about, because you're not saying. But since you took a offense at something. I'm sorry. Now But of course, the U.S. is the world major super power. Why would the U.S. do such a thing and take such a chance of being exposed betraying their allies in a time period, of agreed upon mutual need? Because of their relentless quest for "Full Spectrum Dominance"? And they have total certainty they would get away with it, because after all they got away with the JFKA?

I've noticed a pattern Chris. It seems you conveniently take things hyper personally when you run from an answer. Chris" What seems abundantly clear to me is that there is a contingent on this forum that desperately wants this thread degraded and deleted. Oh a contingent? But just last night you elected to get involved and gave me half an answer. First do you believe Alan's narrative from Garland Nixon? And now for the fourth time. But of course, the U.S. is the world major super power. Why would the U.S. do such a thing and take such a chance of being exposed betraying their allies in a time period, of agreed upon mutual need? Because of their relentless quest for "Full Spectrum Dominance"? And they have total certainty they would get away with it, because after all they got away with the JFKA?

Thanks for the reply, Chris. Chris:I personally do not think European leaders are looking into it, unless forced to by the electorate Right they would never dare even look into it on their own! Chris: Of course we now have balloon mania psychosis occupying the minds of the masses. Oh so Europe and it's leaders are so vacuous, that that could be a distraction? That's garbage, and doesn't effect you, most of it will be over in days. They have people, who are specifically charged with looking into these things. Chris: Succinctly, the European leaders are refraining from commenting simply because they know what is good for them. Right, they would betray their masses of people, their constituents,and leave them groveling in the cold because they are so obviously black mailed under U.S. "Full Spectrum Dominance"! I'm starting to get it now! Chris:This Ukraine crisis has continued the upward passing of wealth at the fastest rate in human history. Wow!, in history Chris? Do you have figures to back up what you say? Chris:High energy costs, a vulnerable, desperate public is good for the ruling class. Yes, good brain food for the masses! I think I've heard this theme from you before. Chris. Though Paul Rigby chooses to use video clips in place of his own words. He agrees with you. His clip shows a "Gus Fring" type host, Garland Nixon, (any relation?) who I assume Paul knows has genuine American authenticity, (which is as high as it gets!) breaking down the Hersch story for us, commenting later that Germany will put up with their pipeline destroyed because they are not a legitimate sovereign state but are completely controlled by the U.S.! He then goes on to say all Europe is so cowed they will say nothing about it and make their people put up with the energy shortages throughout the winter, just like you.. According to Paul's American source , the entire European continent is rendered helpless, as our space laser "full spectrum dominance" could hone in and zap Paul as a bug! Paul seems to me, like a bitter old man. Does that reflect the hopeless sense of powerlessness that you and John feel in your life as well, Chris? If so, I think it's pretty obvious we've already inflicted "Full spectrum psychological dominance " on you, without ever firing a shot. But we have many more arrows in our quiver! But you've only answered half the question. Can I assume you're in agreement with the second half? That is the why? But of course, the U.S. is the world major super power. Why would the U.S. do such a thing and take such a chance of being exposed betraying their allies in a time period, of agreed upon mutual need? Because of their relentless quest for "Full Spectrum Dominance"? And they have total certainty they would get away with it, because after all they got away with the JFKA?

Good points, Pat, Lance There's definitely there's an agenda driven narrative here. I would say I'm like the majority of CTers here, but where I probably differ, is that I think only in a plurality of possible suspects for who killed JFK, the CIA is the most likely, but what gave that a boost for me is that it was reinforced in the 70's when it was established the CIA and Mafia, my second suspicion were in cahoots. But over the years, I haven't sought to continually to reinforce that narrative, as the forum does, but to look for evidence against it. I think it was a small group of people, and I certainly don't buy a huge international conspiracy. While there are some really good new researchers, driven by solving puzzles with a sincere effort at getting at the truth. Unfortunately the CIA connection has been a disaster, in that there's a broader group, aided by authors who have also invested a lot of emotions in some cases for a lot of years that it all started 60 years ago, when we lost our democracy to the NSS and Military Industrial complex and they've passed on this control generation to generation to generation through their secret societies, and some "institutional memory" , to have now created a hidden shadow government, where absolutely nothing is as it seems. Just how this was done, no one can ever say. But now on top of that, it's become a parody within itself here, in that we have a new Trump or if not Trump, a social media induced, (using links and video clips as a currency), component of a new "conspiracy woke" who think the "deep state" is completely controlling our lives. They can literally get away with anything, and have, and we'll never ever know about any of it, just like the JFKA. Every conspiracy that they've ever postulated that came to nothing was just further evidence of the inscrutability, and invincibility of the "Deep State." It's completely hopeless, you might as well not even get out of bed in the morning. Thank God for the forum, because of the forum, you don't even need to, and testament to that is the countless hours they spend here. It goes from young into middle age , but it's become similar to the early 70's Who song. Teenage Wasteland.(Barbara O Reilly) but about conspiracies.. They're completely ADHD, unable to sustain a dialog or stay focused on any train of thought. Lots of allegations, never thought out in any detail. Unable to answer any detailed questions about their theories. To use a football analogy they're like a quarterback in the pocket, nervously scrambling because they rightfully fear how easily their position can be undermined. But they're actually given encouragement by some of the elders here, because they think they are nurturing skeptical thought. But there's no crisis of skeptical thought here! It's a JFK assassination conspiracy forum for chrissake!. Your not doing anything productive for their lives but to further make them waste hours of their lives going down to rabbit holes. JMO

W. I'm not sure how you were addressing my question. I assume you're justifying the action, while not addressing that it is a hostile act toward the EU. and what would be there position. Matt, I appreciate the involved and very interesting article saying Hersch's piece is a total scam! But I wasn't asking you either of you guys. My question is directed to the people who most believe in the story. Namely Chris for posting the story and Paul Rigby for running with story and calling it an act of war on Europe and John who firmly believes the story but chose to interact on some point with you,. W. I'll ask the question again of Paul, Chris,, John and whoever else who believes the story.

Yes Paul, I don't believe anything just because Hersch said it, but if the US. unilaterally bombed Nord stream, that would be a hostile act to the EU. How come no European leaders are opening their mouth? Is it because they're so intimidated by the U.S.? Or perhaps still looking into it further? But of course, the U.S. is the world major super power. Why would the U.S. do such a thing and take such a chance of being exposed betraying their allies in a time period, of agreed upon mutual need? Because of their relentless quest for "Full spectrum Dominance"? And they have total certainty they would get away with it, because after all they got away with the JFKA?

There are some pretty capable new Congressional faces on the Government Oversight Committee. One is Daniel Goldman who grills several witnesses pretty effectively in his 5 minutes, like William Barr crony and fellow bloated human butt plug Fox Jonathan Turley, heh heh and this other ex FBI agent Baker who retired in 1999. I might have been a bit more interested if he was at the FBI, and had direct knowledge of government overreach after 911.

Whoa again! The House Republicans have now decided, they need every vote they can get! Now the Republican party is launching a counter movement to re legitimize George Santos!! Think it will work?

Whoa! I haven't time to get upset about this!! But I thought I'd post it before it's posted here from Fox News! What a virtual bonanza for Fox News! They can crow about this to "own the libs"." Then they can turn it around make their viewership lose their minds over the fact that this is the first time both starting quarterbacks will be black! That yo-yo of building up expectations and then making them upset is a literal gold mine!!!

When Matt Taibbi was viewing cherry picked twitter files provided to him by billionaire elon Musk. He mentioned Biden's concern about posting nude photos of Hunter Biden, but it was only mentioned that Trump also contacted twitter but no specific information beyond that. But we know know, he probably contacted them many times. This illustrates again, The obvious hypocrisy of Taibbi being the intermediary for the twitter files is obvious probably to everyone but drooling fanboy Ben. Ben, how come you haven't come out for the release of twitter files to the public? i could see where a lot of Trumpists with no real life experience doing anything would be so critical and not approach any grasp of the enormity of the job involved in moderating twitter content. It's now apparent they bent over backwards to accommodate the right. Some might think this was just liberals bending over backwards for free speech, but it could have just as well have been a consensus among a group of people who were learning a first in history difficult job as they were going along. Do you realize you have to respond to everyone? Trump, Musk, Biden, various interests groups, OMG the government!. My first impression of twitter after Musk took control was a total lack of professionalism. He was in light years over his head and probably has blown billions in sponsorships. Any direction toward my previous proclivities were first directed to Musk, Glenn Greenwald and Matt Taibbi pablum. I've had to build my previous preferences from the ground up all over again. I suspect it will get better, if only to moderate the financial hemorrhaging! Some people simply don't have the social consciousness to moderate twitter. Trump asked Twitter to take down ‘derogatory’ tweet from Chrissy Teigen: whistleblower https://thehill.com/policy/technology/3849819-trump-asked-twitter-to-take-down-derogatory-tweet-from-chrissy-teigen-whistleblower/

As Ron said. Mike Pence has been subpoenaed. Though the Republicans are scrambling and denying. We have Mike Lee on record as wanting to phase out Social Security. Obviously not a big group of people, a true smattering of applause! But undoubtedly a well to do group. -

John we're not "nitpicking your phraseology". We're asking you to define your term, "Full spectrum dominance" which is the substance of what you're saying, since you said nothing else but the term. It's not a "red herring" to define your terms. John. . Well actually you just mentioned it here. Perhaps if you had said "Full spectrum dominance or "superiority" as defined by Wikipedia" and a speech by playright Harold Pinter, and substituted your blurb as you've just done. You understand , we would have understood it better, but you've probably used this term 5 times, including on another thread before ever defining it. That's the issue. I was also outraged as Harold, in 2005 with Bush's War in Iraq and protested against it beforehand. However, I don't think the full spectrum you've laid out is complete or insidious enough. As it's just the conventional warfare aims any major super power says they aspire to have. (air, land, maritime, and space domains and information environment,) I would extend that to include an element of economic and financial blackmail as well.
