Sheehy is a “CIA Republican,” our name for the RED FLAG level statistically improbable number of “ex” CIA officers, intelligence agency alumni, and military industrial complex -connected folks being installed in the Congress.Sheehy is one of a number of “ex” Navy SEALs (”Order Followers”) run through the unethically manipulative techniques I break down in To See the Cage is to Leave It – 25 Techniques the Few Use to Control the Many. He then went on to make millions as a “government” contractor and is now supporting a war for Israel and was caught trying to silence a Marine that was exposing the truth.The Marine Corp has a history of opposing fascism and speaking truth to power, if you aren’t familiar with the testimony of Maj.

Bob wants to promote what he’s calling a “universal vaccine” that supposedly mimics natural immunity.Let that sink in for a moment. If the point is to mimic natural immunity… why not simply rely on oh, I don’t know…actual natural immunity??In a press concert, Bob proudly announced:“We’re developing a universal vaccine at NIH that addresses the entire phylum of viruses.”Yes, he loves big, technical-sounding words. And sure enough, some people hear those and immediately assume he must be smarter than they are. I’d use a different word than “smart,” but I digress…Remember when he made headlines about canceling $500 million in mRNA vaccine contracts? Many people cheered, thinking the government was finally stepping away from vaccine funding.Wrong. (read my substack about that here.)That $500 million is being taken out of one pocket and stuffed right back into the other—still for vaccine development, but less of the mRNA kind. Why? Because the term “mRNA” is now toxic. It’s a red flag. It’s too obvious. Too many people either experienced harm or know someone who did.So the plan is a rebrand. A bait-and-switch. Instead of mRNA, expect new vaccine methods like oral vaccines, nasal vaccines, transdermal patches, micro-needle tech, plant-based vaccines, electroporation, and other DNA injections. That’s in the pipeline, friends.Keep Reading…Epstein-Rothschild Connection Key to Exposing the Deep Stateby Alex NewmanChild sex trafficker and Deep State operative Jeffrey Epstein was deeply connected to the unfathomably wealthy and powerful Rothschild banking dynasty, perhaps the most important money men for the Insiders, explains The New American magazine’s Alex Newman in this explosive episode of Behind The Deep State. Understanding this connection is critical to unravelling the real story.According to documents released by the Department of Justice, Epstein was paid tens of millions of dollars by Rothschild entities for “the Work.”In fact, Epstein referred to himself as a “representative” of the powerful banking dynasty in emails to Big Tech leaders such as Peter Thiel. In recent testimony, billionaire Les Wexner, an Epstein “co-conspirator” according to the FBI, confirmed it too.The relationship was much closer than “just” business, too. In fact, Ariane de Rothschild, CEO of the Rothschild Group, shares intimate details of her marriage, family squabbles, and more with Epstein. In an email from Epstein, he touts an upcoming visit the two were planning to take in Cuba, hosted by the mass-murdering Castro dynasty enslaving the island.The Rothschild dynasty has been at the center of the plot to create a global political and economic system for centuries. Indeed, they funded much better-known Deep State minions such as George Soros and Cecil Rhodes. Don’t miss this incredible exposure of Epstein and one of the most prominent and influential families making up what Newman describes as the Deep State Behind The Deep State.Continue reading…“Government”, Media and AcademiaCriminality ExposedThese articles also appears in “Government”, Media and Academia Criminality Exposed, A digest of HUNDREDS and HUNDREDS of articles exposing and suggesting inter-generational organized crime’s control of the “Government,” Media and Academia by the Art of Liberty Foundation.

Col. Rachel VanLandingham, who previously served as chief of international law at U.S. Central Command.The United Nations Charter generally restricts the use of force to cases of self-defense or with approval from the U.N. Security Council. The Constitution separately gives Congress the power to authorize offensive war.The War Powers Resolution also requires presidents to notify Congress within 48 hours of introducing U.S. forces into hostilities and limits how long those forces can operate without congressional approval. Secretary of State Marco Rubio briefed members of Congress’s bipartisan “Gang of Eight” in calls Friday night ahead of the strikes, according to administration officials and news reports.Continue reading…Will Trilateral Commission Members Benefit In The Rise Of USD1 And Tether?Etienne Note: I am illustrating this with our White Rose MUCHO GRANDE visualization of the infestation of the Trilateral Commission in every major position of power going back decades through both Republican and Democrat administrations. We would like to update this with the current crop of TC moles. Contact me if you are interested in sponsoring.by Patrick WoodSince Trump, Bessent, Warsh, or other Techbros in Washington, DC don’t directly belong to the Trilateral Commission, I had to follow the money to find out who will profit most, and the list is impressiv: the full Trilateral Commission membership list (April 2025) reveals multiple members positioned to profit from the USD1/RWA tokenization ecosystem and Tether, beyond Larry Summers — and the connections are not incidental.Since Trump, Bessent, Warsh, or other Techbros in Washington, DC don’t directly belong to the Trilateral Commission, I had to follow the money to find out who will profit most, and the list is impressive: the full Trilateral Commission membership list (April 2025) reveals multiple members positioned to profit from the USD1/RWA tokenization ecosystem and Tether, beyond Larry Summers — and the connections are not incidental.What emerges is not a conspiracy but a convergence of institutional positioning: TC members at BlackRock, Goldman, Apollo, KKR, Coinbase, and Ribbit Capital are all independently moving into tokenization infrastructure that USD1 is designed to serve as the settlement layer for. Whether coordinated or not, the Trilateral Commission’s North American membership reads like a who’s who of entities that benefit most from the private programmable dollar architecture USD1 is building — with Larry Summers as the ideological anchor connecting the old dollar system to the new one.Continue reading…Will Trump Succeed in Creating a Dictatorship in the US?by Kevin BarrettCrescent InternationalAuthor’s note: This article was written ten days ago and published yesterday in the March issue of Crescent International. Since it was written before Trump’s disastrous attack on Iran, it understates the likelihood that a genuine national emergency, driven by economic collapse, will provide a pretext for Trump to cancel the 2026 elections. -KBDonald Trump would like to be a dictator, and isn’t shy about saying so. Last month in Davos, Trump said of his critics: “Usually they say, ‘He’s a horrible dictator-type person’… but sometimes you need a dictator.” In August 2025, while discussing the deployment of hostile federal troops to Democrat-majority cities, Trump remarked that “a lot of people are saying maybe we’d like a dictator” because they want to “stop crime.” And back in 2017, Trump spoke enviously of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s authority: “He speaks and his people sit up at attention. I want my people to do the same.”Continue reading…GLP-1s may increase risk of osteoporosis and gout, new research findsby Berkeley Lovelace Jr.GLP-1 drugs — including Ozempic and Wegovy — may be tied to a slightly higher risk of osteoporosis and gout, according to research presented Monday at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons’ annual meeting.Dr. John Horneff, an associate professor of orthopedic surgery at the University of Pennsylvania and the lead author of the study, said he began looking into the issue after some patients appeared to develop serious tendon tears after relatively minor injuries. That led them to examine whether GLP-1s might affect bone and other connective tissue more broadly.“People are taking these medications, and obviously there’s a tremendous amount of upside,” Horneff said. “But with that, they start to decrease their intake of food and nutrients.”Osteoporosis is a disease that weakens the bones and makes them likelier to break or fracture, often from minor falls. It’s a common concern for many older adults and for people who lose a significant amount of weight over a short period of time. Gout, meanwhile, is a painful form of arthritis that can occur when the body has too much uric acid, which can come from a diet high in red meat and alcohol — as well as rapid weight loss.Continue reading…Drone Impacts US Embassy In Riyadh After Rubio Warns Iran ‘Hardest Hits Yet To Come’by Tyler DurdenPresident Trump opened Monday’s Medal of Honor ceremony in the White House East Wing with a carefully prepared, somewhat brief statement on Operation Epic Fury. Speaking deliberatively – but not quite with the level of his typically confident and energetic tone and demeanor – he spoke initially and broadly on the rationale for ordering the attack on Iran, which is now in day three and has taken at least four American troop lives at this point. Trump vowed to “crush” the “Iranian threat posed to the US,” claiming that “we will easily prevail”. He declared that already US forces have knocked out ten ships, and that the plan is to also ensure the Iranians “can’t fund armies beyond borders”. But high on the minds of Congressional leaders and the American public is: what’s next? Trump gave a timeline of a “projected four to five weeks” for war with Iran, “but we can go longer” and this will involve “whatever it takes.” He vowed to continue the mission with “unyielding resolve” – even amid reports that US Gulf allies UAE and Qatar are now lobbying allies to persuade Trump to end the Iran war soon (as the Gulf continues to feel the impact of Iran’s retaliatory strikes). The President just committed the nation to another potentially open-ended war in the Middle East.Continue reading…Simplicius: U.S. Suffers Worst Day of Air Losses in Decades as Iran Conflict Spiralsby SimpliciusThe Iran conflict is escalating, with the Trump administration desperate to keep a straight face on things as American casualties and losses begin mounting.Today’s major shock came when not one, not two, but an unprecedented three American F-15E fighter jets were mysteriously shot down over Kuwait. Note the official US military report admits that Iranian aircraft had been engaging them at a time when “air superiority” was allegedly long established:But not everyone is convinced these were “friendly fire” incidents. Iran announced it had downed the craft, which is at least plausible given that Kuwait is positioned well within reach of long-range S-300s.There are even logical speculations that Iran had received the latest Geran drone tech from Russia which attaches air-to-air missiles onto the Gerans and Shaheds, allowing them to shoot down pursuing craft as Russia has now verifiably demonstrated against a number of Ukrainian aerial assets. It’s impossible to know for sure, but friendly fire on three aircraft in a row strains credulity.Continue reading…Meta Workers Say They’re Seeing Disturbing Things Through Users’ Smart GlassesEtienne Note: Reminder… The last attempt to surveil the population with “smart” glasses was the Google Glass project and it died on the vine when people caught wearing the glasses were called: GLASSHOLES! Let’s find something just as catchy for Facebook/Meta’s Ray-ban versions…By Victor TangermannMeta’s Ray Ban AI glasses have shot up in popularity in recent years, selling over seven million pairs in 2025 in a considerable jump over the two million it sold in 2023 and 2024 combined.While the smart glasses have scored big with consumers, allowing them to record first-person footage through an integrated camera and microphone array, and analyzing the world around them through Meta’s AI model, the hardware has sparked a heated debate. Critics say enabling facial recognition in the glasses’ software could have dangerous implications, especially considering the militarization of law enforcement and Meta’s abysmal track record when it comes to ensuring the privacy of users.And regardless of the wearer’s intention, much of the footage being recorded by the glasses is being sent to offshore contractors for data labeling, a widely-used preprocessing step in training new AI models in which human contractors are asked to review and annotate footage. It’s a laborious and highly resource-intensive process that tech companies often gloss over when discussing the prowess of their latest AI models.Continue reading…Remembering Harry Browne, 20 Years LaterEtienne Note: Fun Fact.. Harry Browne changed my life as well! Inspired by Harry Browne, I ended up being the campaign manager for his running mate in the 1996 presidential election, Jo Jorgensen, who went on to be the Libertarian Party’s 2020 presidential candidate. Unlike the Republicans and the Democrats, the LP’s presidential candidate doesn’t get to pick his running mate. You have to run for and win the Party’s nomination to be vice president. We campaigned in 22+ states, had to report to the FEC, and did dozens of radio talk show and newspaper interviews educating people about freedom and libertarianism. My takeaway from the experience was the election system was 100% rigged against third party candidates. Third parties had their legs broken at the starting line, while incumbents had a 50-yard head start. I went on to work at one of the “Big Four” think tanks in Washington, DC to try an influence socio-economic progress from a different angle as I do today!by Jim BabkaToday, we’re remembering Harry Browne, who passed away on March 1, 2006.Life goes by fast. I’ve noticed this most when an anniversary of the death of a loved one comes around.For those who do not recall or know, Harry Browne was the greatest Libertarian candidate ever. He was sharp. He was prepared. He looked the part.Continue reading…Commercial Dog Food – They are Experimenting on Your DogBy Nick ThompsonYou read the labels. You check the ingredients. You avoid seed oils, limit sugar, and side-eye anything with a barcode longer than a haiku. You subscribe to Substacks that dissect institutional capture. You understand, probably better than most, that “the science” can be quietly purchased by the people it is supposed to regulate.So let me ask you a question that might sting.What did you feed your dog this morning?If the answer is a brown pellet from a bag, you are running the same ultraprocessed food experiment on your dog that you have spent the last few years learning to reject for yourself and your family. And you are doing it for entirely understandable reasons, because the same machinery of institutional capture, industry-funded research, and reassuring pseudo-scientific language that once told you margarine was healthier than butter has been quietly operating in veterinary medicine for decades.Continue reading…Turbo Cancer Makes Cover of Time MagazineBy Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPHI have always thought in some way that the cover of Time Magazine marks prominent inflection points in modern history. No surprise, it caught my eye that post-pandemic turbo cancer was presented as the feature article in the February 13, 2025 issue. Alter AI assisted this piece.The TIME magazine article “The Race to Explain Why More Young Adults Are Getting Cancer” (February 2025) covers an alarming and undeniable trend—soaring rates of cancer among people under 50. It surveys a parade of distressed experts, shell-shocked oncologists, and bewildered families as they grapple with what was once considered a disease of old age suddenly striking the young. The piece catalogs dozens of “mystery” cases and speculates about modern diets, microplastics, artificial light exposure, sedentary lifestyles, and prenatal environmental factors. Yet despite its length and depth, the article avoids the most biologically plausible and urgent factor emerging from post-2020 data: widespread exposure to the SARS-CoV‑2 Spike protein—through both infection and mRNA vaccination. That silence may prove to be medicine’s greatest act of denial in a century.Continue reading…Honest Money in Dishonest HandsBy George F. SmithFor those who would find relief knowing the Bible sanctions a market-derived medium of exchange, Gary North’s Honest Money will come as a godsend (no pun intended). Even for those reprobates who forswear a religious worldview, his book will provide a solid grounding in monetary theory and history.North’s vast understanding of money and banking coupled with his lean, no-jargon writing style takes the labor out of reading. His narrative carries us on a journey from the development of money in its innocent youth, where it was used solely as a means of facilitating trade, to money in its corrupt maturity, where today it also serves to facilitate power and profit for a ruling elite.Very importantly Honest Money also includes numerous bullet points at the end of each chapter covering the main ideas. More good news: The book can be read comfortably in one evening.Crusoe’s ChoicesNorth begins with the familiar star of economic analysis, Robinson Crusoe. But rather than the usual pedestrian account of how Crusoe will budget his time, North dramatizes the situation somewhat, as would be appropriate for someone recently shipwrecked on an unknown island.Continue reading…CIA Moves To Arm Kurdish Forces To Foment Govt Collapse In Iran: Officialsby Tyler DurdenHere are the most critical developments unfolding in the US-Iran conflict:CIA working to arm Kurdish forces to spark uprising in Iran, sources say: CNNState Department securing military aircraft, charter flights to get Americans out of Middle EastIran International is claiming (unverified) Iran’s Assembly of Experts chose Mojtaba Khamenei as new Ayatollah under heavy IRGC pressure to ensure hardline continuity and regime stability after his father’s deathContinue reading…Saudi Analyst Claims US Diverted ALL Anti-Missile Defense Away from OUR Troops & Allies to IsraelVideo link hereSaudi political analyst Suleiman Al-Aqili has warned that Gulf countries hosting US military bases are at risk, as America prioritizes protecting Israel amid the ongoing Iran-US-Israel conflict.“America has abandoned us, and focused its defense systems on protecting Israel, leaving the Gulf states that host its military bases at the mercy of Iranian missiles and drones,” Al-Aqili told Al Jazeera.Jim Crenshaw:Continue reading…US launches military operations in EcuadorBy Aaron Pellish and Eric Bazail-EimilU.S. forces have launched military operations with Ecuador against “designated terrorist organizations” inside the South American country, Southern Command said Tuesday.The military released no details on the operations but suggested in a statement that it was an extension of strikes carried out by the Trump administration against suspected drug trafficking organizations in the region.“We commend the men and women of the Ecuadorian armed forces for their unwavering commitment to this fight, demonstrating courage and resolve through continued actions against narco-terrorists in their country,” said Marine Gen. Francis L. Donovan, commander of U.S. Southern Command.Since President Donald Trump took office, the U.S. has taken aggressive steps to curb the flow of drugs from the Southern hemisphere. The administration has conducted about 45 strikes against suspected smuggling vessels in the Caribbean and Pacific Ocean, killing more than 150 people.Continue reading…Kraken becomes first crypto company to secure Fed master account accessBy Francisco Rodrigues, AI Boost | Edited by Omkar GodboleKraken has secured a Federal Reserve “master account,” giving its banking arm direct access to the Fed’s core payment systems and allowing it to settle payments itself.The approval lets Kraken speed up deposits and withdrawals for large traders and institutional clients, but is limited, with Kraken not earning interest on reserves or accessing the Fed’s emergency lending.The move is part of Kraken’s efforts to expand its operations and move towards a potential initial public offering (IPO), following in the footsteps of other crypto firms like Coinbase and Gemini.Kraken has secured a Federal Reserve “master account,” giving its banking arm direct access to the Fed’s core payment systems and making it the first crypto firm to operate on the same rails as traditional financial institutions.Continue reading…Power Lines, Tablets Linked to Brain Cancer Risk in Childrenby Suzanne Burdick, Ph.D.The DefenderThis article was originally published by The Defender — Children’s Health Defense’s News & Views Website.The electromagnetic radiation from power lines and household wiring increased children’s risk of central nervous system tumors, according to a peer-reviewed study published in Environmental Research.Prolonged tablet use also increased kids’ risk, especially when tablets were connected to the internet.Central nervous system tumors, such as gliomas, are the “second most common childhood cancer,” the authors wrote in their report.Continue reading…DEATH VAULTS Iran shows off underground ‘Missile City’ of suicide drones & rockets wreaking havoc across Middle East in chilling vidby Harvey GehChilling propaganda footage shows a seemingly endless network of tunnels holding rows of devastating bombs and terrifying Shahed drones.It comes amid mounting fears that the Gulf states, who are currently under Iranian fire amid the spiralling Middle East conflict, could run out of anti-drone weaponry.US-backed Gulf countries have burned through their defensive stockpiles at breakneck speed amid waves of Iranian missiles and drones.In the ominous clip, a ticking clock can be heard in the background as drone footage captures the extent of Iran‘s arsenal.Continue reading…Insufficient Sleep Strongly Predicts Reduced Long-Term Well-Beingby Dr. Joseph MercolaSleeping fewer than seven hours per night is strongly linked to reduced long-term well-being, even when factors like diet, exercise, income, and access to health care are taken into accountLarge-scale U.S. data shows sleep loss predicts reduced overall well-being more reliably than many habits people focus on daily, including physical inactivity and poor dietary choicesChronic short sleep keeps your heart, immune system, and brain under constant strain, preventing the nightly repair work your body relies on to stay resilient over timeSleep pressure builds when your cells work harder to produce energy, leading to natural signals that guide your brain toward deeper rest and stronger sleep driveContinue reading…Security Researchers Warn Age Verification Laws Are Building a Global Surveillance Systemby Ken MaconStand against censorship and surveillance: join Reclaim The Net.Three hundred and seventy-one security and privacy academics from 29 countries signed an open letter this week calling on governments to halt age verification rollouts until the privacy and security implications are properly understood.The letter arrives as lawmakers across the world race to ban children from social media, pushing platforms to implement age checks before anyone has settled on what those checks should actually look like.The signatories are unambiguous. Deploying large-scale identity verification systems without a clear grasp of what they do to user security, autonomy, and freedom is, in their words, “dangerous and socially unacceptable.”Continue reading…BREAKING STUDY: Living Near a Cell Tower Linked to White Blood Cell Elevation Comparable to Smokingby Nicolas Hulscher, MPHFor years, concerns about cell towers have been dismissed as speculative. Now we have measurable human markers.A newly published peer-reviewed study examined people living within 60 meters of mobile phone base stations and compared them to residents living more than 300 meters away. Researchers didn’t ask about headaches or sleep disturbances. They drew blood. They measured power density inside participants’ homes. They ran complete blood counts and analyzed immune cell subsets. And what they found was not subtle.Higher exposure to cell tower radiation was linked to higher white blood cell counts at levels similar to what is seen in smokers. Among people living within 60 meters of a tower, 24% had basophil levels above what doctors consider normal, and most of those affected were under 30 years old. That’s nearly one in four residents showing an immune marker outside the healthy range.And it wasn’t only about living near a tower. Heavy daily mobile phone use — particularly 4 to 6 hours per day — was also associated with noticeable immune changes. In that group, more than 50% had lymphocyte levels above normal reference ranges, again largely among younger adults. These are white blood cells involved in immune defense, and when they consistently rise above normal levels, it signals that the body may be responding to ongoing biological stress.Continue reading…MAGA’s new excuse for Iran war: Israel made us do itby Aaron MatéIn justifying the US-Israeli regime change war on Iran, the Trump administration and Congressional allies have tried to settle on a new excuse: Israel made us do it.On Monday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted that the US struck Iran in response to the “imminent threat” that it posed to US forces in the region. Yet that threat, he argued, was solely created by Israel. “We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action, we knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces, and we knew that if we didn’t preemptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties,” Rubio told reporters on Capitol Hill. “…We went proactively in a defensive way to prevent them from inflicting higher damage.”House Speaker Mike Johnson concurred. “Because Israel was determined to act with or without the U.S., our commander in chief and the administration… had a very difficult decision to make,” Johnson said. Iran “would have immediately retaliated against U.S. personnel and assets,” he argued. Therefore, “the consequences of inaction on our part would have been devastating.”“Israel faced an existential risk and they were prepared to strike Iran alone,” Sen. Tom Cotton said on Fox News. “If that happened, Iran was very likely to target our troops. That may address the question of ‘why now.’”Continue reading…Simplicius: US Set to Escalate War into Ground Phase with Kurdish Vanguardby SimpliciusThe next phase of the Israeli-American plan for Iran has been revealed.

I will not partake in a false remembrance ceremony designed by the very system that continues to sacrifice human beings through endless wars.Last night my friend Marianne shared a song with me, a song so haunting and beautiful that it stopped me in my tracks. I wish I could credit the singer or songwriter, but neither of us have their details. What I can say is that this piece of music captures, more truthfully than any official speech or ceremony, the reality of war: the evil behind it, the false patriotism that sustains it, the blood sacrifice it demands, and the dark forces that profit from it, money and greed.Continue reading…libertarian Intentional Community RoundupFree State Project Member Bruce Fenton DESTROYS “Petty Tyrant” on NH Town CouncilThe Free State Project is starting to roll HARD with more and more supehuman-level activists moving to the State and beginning to make an impact.
