The NRA Has Become an Insane Pro-Trump Organization

The NRA is so utterly disgusting: The NRA went silent in the wake of the mass shooting in Las Vegas that killed 58 and injured hundreds. But now the extremist gun group has roared back to life with an utterly chilling ad calling for retribution against any and all critics of Donald Trump. The ad ends with a call to arms to gun owners, and declares that Trump’s detractors will “perish in the political flames of their own fires.” Fronted by NRA spokesperson and serial liar Dana Loesch, the web video is a bizarre montage of imagery designed to quicken the pulse of NRA supporters who back Trump. It insists that Trump is not to be questioned or challenged, and describes Americans exercising their First Amendment right to call Trump out as “saboteurs” who want to “drive their daggers through the heart of our future.” LOESCH: We are witnesses to the most ruthless attack on a president, and the people who voted for him, and the free system that allowed it to happen in American histo...

David Talbot on JFK File Release by CIA

"One day after the CIA blocked the full release of JFK documents, in defiance of the law, it's more clear than ever who's running the Trump admini stration. Your lawful right as an American citizen to your own history has been "denied in full," to use the bureaucratic language of the spy agency that tells the president of the United States what he can and cannot do. Trump's tweeted explanation for why he caved to CIA pressure said it all: "I have no choice — today — but to accept those redactions rather than allow potentially irreversible harm to our nation’s security.”   Wow...."I HAVE NO CHOICE." Ponder that one for a moment. The president of the United States has no choice when the CIA makes its will known to him.  Trump still insists that after six months -- or maybe another 25 years -- the American people will be granted full "transparency." But Roger Stone, the Trump advisor who's been courageously pushing for f...

"The Other Zapruder Film"

Rich Dellarosa: The Other Zapruder Film - Black Op Radio 2-26-09  Such a fascinating story, and just a reminder that anyone who relies on the famous Zapruder film that is widely available on Youtube, is making a big mistake, because that "official" film is greatly altered.

The Russians Have Been Pushing Disinfo on the US for Many Years

... certainly they were doing it well before the 2016 election. This Dmitri Khazelov guy who pushed the silly WTC basement nuke theory is a perfect example . He was admitted Russian intelligence and pushed ridiculous claims . Along these lines, Russia Today frequently pushed 9/11 conspiracy theories (not that these were all "wrong" but it did have the effect of destabilizing trust in the US govt). The goal of Russia is/was to sow confusion and distrust of the US government by US citizens. It's clever because there is reason to distrust the government, but they can strongly enhance it for their own ends, and push their own confusing but professionally presented theories, to enhance distrust. I think it does make a lot of sense that Putin's Russian government was waging a disinformation campaign against the US, part of asymmetrical warfare against the US, since we are their major geopolitical foe. A lot on this disinformation campaign has come out since the election. So...

Re-Reading "Wagging the Moondoggie"

Image
Still great stuff, and really not really dated at all, all things considered (written between 2009 and 2011 by the now sadly deceased Dave McGowan). Definitely worth another read! Oh, by the way, the old site is gone so the articles have been put up at a new website: http://centerforaninformedamerica.com Or you can listen in podcast form now ! Yes, this is an official photo of the landing module from NASA!

Apollo Hoax 2017

Image
Some good stuff in here, particularly in the second half on the "puppet-string" action and the sounds. One interesting idea here is expressed at the end: they make a "patriotic" case for the Apollo hoax-- that it was a cold war "victory" without firing any shots or violence, and that we should honor the astronauts....
