Before I get into my piece, I have to report on something very important. I have received exclusive footage of a new spy balloon with China’s President Xi Jinping on board:
I hope I don’t have to tell anyone that’s fake, but I don’t know these days.
The American people are under constantly given a steady diet of lies and distractions. And both the “left” and “right” are targeted.
It seems like the distractions, distractions, distractions are coming at a faster pace these days. The phony Chinese spy balloon scam earlier this year is emblematic of it. Honestly, this distraction still has traction. From Fox News to Business Insider, the mainstream propaganda narrative media is still pushing it half a year later.
Some other distractions this year has been the UFO deception or the Titan sub which the U.S. Navy knew immediately of a “catastrophic implosion” yet the media perpetrated a week-long narrative trying to force the distracted Americans to cry crocodile tears for some stupid billionaires. Meanwhile, real stories go unreported. The Free Thought Project reported on just a few of those stories missed.
I’ll give you another one. How about this alleged cocaine that’s been found in the White House? Here’s a wild idea, it’s a complete lie. I’m not saying that for fact, but think about it for a bit. If they really found cocaine in the White House, that would have to make the Biden regime the most transparent in American history. Do you really think they wouldn’t be able to completely hide that from the public completely? Heck, even cocaine actually was found, do you think they wouldn’t immediately know whose it was with all the cameras at the White House?
Any story coming out of the narrative media should give you pause. As this alleged cocaine incident continues, did you know that the Biden regime sent cluster munitions to Ukraine that have been widely banned by the international community?
Tell me, which story is more important to you and me? The possibility that cocaine was found at the White House, or America inching ever closer to world war?
As all these distractions are thrown at the American people, the real stories are ignored or diminished like the advancement of central bank digital currencies to the fact that the experimental covid gene therapy bioweapon shots continue to wreak havoc on humanity.
The Bipartisan Clown Show
“It is easy to be distracted right now by the bread and circus politics that have dominated the news headlines lately, but don’t be distracted.
Don’t be fooled, not even a little.
We’re being subjected to the oldest con game in the books, the magician’s sleight of hand that keeps you focused on the shell game in front of you while your wallet is being picked clean by ruffians in your midst.
This is how tyranny rises and freedom falls.
What characterizes American government today is not so much dysfunctional politics as it is ruthlessly contrived governance carried out behind the entertaining, distracting and disingenuous curtain of political theater. And what political theater it is, diabolically Shakespearean at times, full of sound and fury, yet in the end, signifying nothing.
We are being ruled by a government of scoundrels, spies, thugs, thieves, gangsters, ruffians, rapists, extortionists, bounty hunters, battle-ready warriors and cold-blooded killers who communicate using a language of force and oppression.
The U.S. government now poses the greatest threat to our freedoms.
More than terrorism, more than domestic extremism, more than gun violence and organized crime, even more than the perceived threat posed by any single politician, the U.S. government remains a greater menace to the life, liberty and property of its citizens than any of the so-called dangers from which the government claims to protect us.
No matter who has occupied the White House in recent years, the Deep State has succeeded in keeping the citizenry divided and at each other’s throats.
After all, as long as we’re busy fighting each other, we’ll never manage to present a unified front against tyranny in any form.
Unfortunately, what we are facing is tyranny in every form.
The facts speak for themselves.”—John Whitehead
The biggest distraction of all has become politics, specifically at the federal level. It’s all professional wrestling, a clown show. You have to tune the clowns out, but you’ve been trained to join a tribe. And as long as you’re in your tribe, you’ll abandon all principles and have no shame when your open hypocrisy is exposed.
I’ve written this before, but the Democrats and Republicans are two crime families fighting over turf. All they care about is the perceived “power” the American people accept they have. Never mind that they’re supposed to be “public servants” and servants don’t have power. And as long as your tribe is in “power,” you push to expand the government’s “power.” When your tribe is out of “power,” you complain when your rival tribe pushes to expand the government’s “power.”
It doesn’t matter which party has the majority. The tyranny keeps expanding its reach.
Caitlin Johnstone wrote that the two-party system is set up for “creating the illusion of having a democratic choice between two opposing parties while ensuring that both parties advance the same overall agendas.”
Nothing exposes how both sides are aligned more than their support for the Military Industrial Complex.
On the so-called “left,” Johnstone wrote:
“In just a few years Democrats flipped from freaking out about Nazis, shrieking that Trump was going to start a nuclear war, and denying US election results to cheering for Nazis, demanding more nuclear brinkmanship, and accusing anyone who denies election results of treason.”
Indeed, there’s no such thing as an anti-war left anymore. These hypocrites literally are supporting Nazis in Ukraine.
“A MintPress investigation has found that a host of Western government officials, intelligence agents and assets have been directly involved in intimate collaboration with Nazi groups and individuals since at least 2014. This has included involvement in creating and operating the Nazi-run kill list in Ukraine, which MintPress revealed recently.
While Western media have belatedly been forced to concede that there are Nazi influences in Ukraine, many journalists have insisted that the visible fascist patches on uniforms are only there to troll Russians and that they are insignificant and a gift to Russian propaganda. Still, other journalists admit to asking Ukrainian service members to cover up their Nazi symbols. Yet, as we shall see, this collaboration goes much further.”
On the so-called “right,” Johnstone wrote:
“Republican politicians have found a way to reconcile the fact that scrutinizing the behavior of the US war machine appeals to their base and wins votes with the fact that the Republican Party is built around facilitating war and militarism at every turn. Their solution? Pour mountains of energy into championing the case that the nation’s military has gotten too ‘woke.’”
We’re not talking about the Lady Lindsey Grahams of the world who are rather consistent in their thirst for foreign blood. Johnstone notes that some of the most “conservative” members of Congress are playing both sides of the coin. On the one hand, the “conservatives” will talk tough about not sending money to Ukraine. On the other hand, the “conservatives” fight to increase the military budget they know is going to be spent on unconstitutional interventions in Ukraine.
Johnstone wrote:
“Both the Republican Party and the Democratic Party are designed to take power away from the people and feed it to the empire. Every attempt to draw you into supporting them is designed to disempower you, even when it flies the flag of ‘populism’ and claims to oppose the same interests you oppose. Anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to turn you into a tool of the powerful.”
Presidential Politics, The Biggest Distraction of All
“All of these ‘candidates,’ are making speeches, going on major platforms, ‘debating’ each other, announcing their candidacy to crowds of revelers, and it is all a show; a fake show that goes unnoticed by nearly every single group, including those who claim to believe in freedom, while at the same time stumping for a new ruler to be their political boss. Almost none are exempt from this magnificent hypocrisy, except those who refuse to participate in this process for fools called elections, and understand the absolute idiocy of voluntarily choosing rulers to lord over your accepted enslavement.
So go out and scream and yell, clap your hands, hold stupid signs, march, sing, worship your political savior of choice, publish articles about the greatness of your pick, vote as many times as you can, and see how much better off you will be after the bell tolls, as your new master, no matter which one is selected, is now your new king.”—Gary Barnett
Within the political circus, the biggest distraction of all is the presidential election. Albert Einstein said of the definition of insanity, it’s “doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.”
Here we are, again, in another presidential election, and both sides act as if this is the most important thing that has ever happened. Keep in mind, the U.S. Constitution under Article II gives extremely little authority to the office of the president. Still, the “left” and “right” want a king. They want a political savior. Honestly, it makes me absolutely sick.
By the way, we used to talk about how presidential elections get longer and longer each election cycle. This 2024 cycle effectively started after the 2020 election. Yet, nobody seems to notice nor care. They think this constant politicking is normal. It’s not. It’s a sign of how weak our nation is.
This election, I intend to cast not one vote for a federal candidate. The federal government is completely corrupt. Tune the freaks in the clown show out.
If there’s any use in voting, it’s at the state and local level. Even there, don’t lay any hope nor look for any saviors. It’s your responsibility to fix the problems in your life. Stop looking for political saviors.
Pastor Matt Trewhella, of Mercy Seat Christian Church in Milwaukee, WI, said:
“Have you noticed that the media and the two political groups have already started with their shiny object campaign in order to keep us from focusing on what really matters? I’m talking about the presidential campaign. They try to keep everyone focused on their shiny object, the presidential election. Like little kittens, Americans follow the shiny object and get played like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football while Lucy is holding it.
Two things here, have you ever noticed that regardless of which political party is in power the country remains on the same trajectory (of) bigger government, more invasive of our lives, more decadence, more evil, more immorality and injustice being dispensed upon us, the people. The second thing to notice is that when you actually take time read the Constitution, you see what little, limited power the president actually possesses.
The media and the two political groups have made the presidential office into this emperorship. It was never intended to be that way. Our founders pillared for us an actual federalism. And in a federalism, you have multiple levels of government, multiple branches at each level, so that if any one branch or branches begins to play the tyrant, impugning the Constitution, dispensing evil and immorality, another branch or branches will check that branch or branches and stop their evil.
They don’t want you to remember any of that. You know how everyone’s always on their phone? This is so you stay focused on the shiny object, that you stay completely immersed on the presidential campaign, not taking action where you can actually make a difference at the county and local levels, and even the state level.
We have to quit looking to men who openly impugn the law of God to save us from evil. We must be faithful and true to Christ. Understand that a tyrant’s superior civil authority always counts on the blithe compliance of the lesser authorities in order to get their evil down into the fabric of the society. Don’t allow the shiny object to grab your attention. Engage at the county and local level, and stop the evil.
Have you noticed that as men have been voting for the lesser of two evils over the last 40 years, the lesser of two evils just keeps getting more evil. We have to quit looking to men who openly impugn the law of God to save us from evil. We must be faithful and true to Christ. Repentance is massively needed by us. We need to repent. We’re going nowhere without repentance.”
I'd not been aware of MintPressNews prior to this article. They have a very pro-Palestinian/anti-Israel bent. Very strange bedfellow - unseemly
