Epstein Story Killed by ABC in 2015: Was It Done to Protect the Clintons?

The saga of pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who may or may not have committed suicide in his jail cell in August, goes on and on as cover stories and out-and-out lies continue to surface, mostly coming from the alternative media which clearly do not share the reticence of their mainstream competitors. The most recent revelation concerns […]

Deep State on the National Security Council: Colonel Vindman Is an ‘Expert’ With an Agenda

The current frenzy to impeach President Donald Trump sometimes in its haste reveals that which could easily be hidden about the operation of the Deep State inside the federal government.

The White House Plan to Strangle Iran

More Sanctions, More Punishment There is a certain irony in President Donald Trump’s frequently expressed desire to withdraw from the endless wars that have characterized the so-called “global war on terror” initiated by George W.

They rose to power in a similar fashion, based […]

Jeffrey Epstein Again Disappears From View, but What About Mossad?

I have long argued that pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was clearly an intelligence agent and that he was most likely working for the Israeli external service Mossad. My belief was based on the nature of his activity, which suggested that he was able to blackmail important Americans using the sex tapes that he had been able […]

Sanctioning Away Free Speech: Americans Meet With Iranians at Their Peril
