I’m excited or the memo tomorrow… the media is showing it’s bias, remember Watergate, Pentagon Papers!
Before I begin a little about me; since I haven’t said much in here so a bit about my background.
The day I graduated from high school I went to work for the government. While working, I got my degree in Foreign Relations with a speciality in Intelligence and Defence. I also have a degree in Public Relations which I got later.
While there I learned a lot of things such as:
- How money moves
- Counterintelligence
- VIP security
- Analyst of raw intelligence
- Creating various documents based on research
- Developing campaign strategies
- Opposition research and so much more.
I then got several promotions and reached the “inner circle” where I saw things I didn’t like. After raising them, I was offered a choice, and I chose to resign.
A few months later I started my own political consulting company and loved the private sector. I got to chose who to work for and what areas I wanted to work in. We specialised; it wasn’t our only area, election campaigns.
After getting an offer for the company, I sold and went on to something else – chef school. That seems like an odd choice but growing up I wanted to be a pro baseball player or a chef. My life went in an entirely different direction.
Just before I was to do my field placement, my father became terminally ill, and I decided to leave school to look after him.
After his death, I realized I had enough money to semi-retire. So today, I spend my time doing what I love, the intelligence and defence behind geopolitics.
While the 2016 campaign was in full swing, I started questioning the bias of the media. For that, I got called names and lost friends.
Since then, I have had more fights and lost more friends just for asking questions. Questions that everyone should be asking.
During the Watergate, the media went looking for the truth and took down a president.
During the Pentagon Papers incident, the media took their lawsuit to the Supreme Court to get the classified documents.
Now the media is complicit in obstructing the truth from coming out. If the memo is a nothing burger, why does the media care if it’s released?
Why are the democrats so anti-transparency? Why haven’t the majority of the Democrats not read the memo, yet they can bash it all day. If one looks closely, they are contradicting themselves.
One of the great things is the memo is the beginning. Over the next several months there is a plan to release 60 to 80 per cent of the 1.2 million pages the memo is based on.
I would take the Democrats seriously if they fought with facts and not propaganda based on nothing but lip service. My advice, stop the name calling and start challenging the points of the memo.
I’m still so disappointed that the black caucus at the SOTU couldn’t even show emotion for the lowest black unemployment in the history of the country.
Or how Democrats couldn’t clap and show respect for the two families who had daughters killed by MS-13.
The champions of the oppressed and minorities; the Democrats, showed just how they honestly feel. They also seem to like to race bating rather than bring people together as real leaders do.
I am not a democrat or replubilca. I have no interst in partisan politics. The republicans and POTS arn’t free from their faults.
And people wonder why I want to move to some small place and spend hours on the beach, hiding in the rainforest taking pictures for hours. I don’t want more nuclear weapons, there is no way there can be such a thing as clean coal, and there should not be drilling in the artic.
Ultimately, the weak minded people who have forgotten or refuse to look past the banter and see what is truly being said are the ones who are at fault for all of this.
You definitely have an interesting background. I truly think we need to find a way to keep the news “factual”. We do have to remember that discrediting the media is one of the first steps taken by dictators and others who want to hide behind illusions.
@dlk082244 We don’t have to remember that discrediting the media is one of the first steps taken by dictators. In many cases, the media is complicit in protecting dictators and pushing forward their agenda.
By making that statement, you are not being factual, but playing a bias on sources of information.
What we need to remember is how to think for ourselves, dissect an argument, and not rely on others to spoon feed us with their opinions.
Take a look at how much money the Intelligence Communities (IC) spends on various forms of media.
Know who to trust, know the real backgrounds and not the story from the 5 o’clock news.
Ask logical questions, understand how all the departments, agencies, committees, and other sectors of the government work as well a constitutional republic. Most importantly learn history. I forget who said it but it is fairly accurate; all history textbooks are false.
What does Top Secret, and other forms of clarification mean? What is the criteria? How are they processed, what’s the procedures for declassification.
What is a Psychological operation? What is non linear warfare?
Is it strange that when one person mishandles classified information they are defended, but when a document comes out through proper channels it’s on the same level as a Snowden leak?
The only way to get to the truth is to stop being mesmerized by fancy words, tech, and people with titles who are “experts” and learn and read and study for oneself.
All agencies in the IC have a psychological operation component; it’s naive to think they are not running operations on their own citizens. After all, once one knows the true history of the IC, why they were created and who runs them; the mask of controlled reality starts to peel away.

What did you think of the JFK release that was done a few months ago?
@peter_24601 It was about time the information was made public.
However, I was really disappointed with what was redacted. The fact there are still people alive and to my knowledge no one is being investigated about their role is even more disappointing. There were also some interesting news stories that came out about that time.
One of the most interesting things was who was against the release of documents.
They didn’t really bring any new information to light, did verify and clarify a few things and helped to debunk a lot of the theories around the assassination. The document dump also feels incomplete, as if there is more to what happened.
