The Assassination of Charlie Kirk

Charlie Kirk was not killed by a kook in the audience .  It was an organized assassination.  The rifleman was on a roof, which indicates planning and forethought. The rifleman was an expert.  One shot did the job.  The rifleman disappeared, which indicates planning. Kirk’s murder has the mark of a professional planned assassination.

Why was Charlie Kirk assassinated?  Because he was a leader beyond the control of the ruling establishment?  The ruling establishment has never tolerated leaders who...

Trump Calls European’s Sanction Bluff

In February 2025 the U.S. started talks with Russia over ending the war in Ukraine. The Europeans were against such talks. They were still dreaming of winning the lost war – of keeping control over Ukraine by providing it with security guarantees.

The Trump administration gave them a lecture in form of a catalog of questions. As I summarized the issue at that time:

The U.S. has recognized that there aren’t enough troops, money or will to achieve a better negotiation position for what’s left of U...

Open Season for False-Flag Provocations as NATO and Kiev Regime Get Desperate

Russia was blamed in a damning outcry, yet the circumstances incriminate NATO’s Ukrainian client.

This week saw two false-flag provocations back-to-back, orchestrated by the NATO-sponsored Kiev regime. Tellingly, before any considered response was given by Russia or independent observers, European politicians were shutting down open discussion, warning about expected Russian lies and disinformation.

In other words, no critical examination of the incidents is permitted. These were “barbaric” and ...

Charlie Kirk and the Sacred Totem of Civil Rights

Defenders of the Civil Rights Act are always at great pains to portray themselves as eminently reasonable, when they argue that the nondiscrimination principle reflects the best of intentions to create a fairer world. Civil rights law indeed seems, on the face of it, to stand for nothing more than giving everyone a fair chance to participate in education or employment. What could be wrong with allowing black students to attend schools that were previously restricted to whites only, or preventing...

Late August 2001 in Pakistan. Mysterious September 11, 2001 Breakfast Meeting on Capitol Hill

Author’s Introduction

While the joint inquiry (under the helm of Bob Graham and Porter Goss) had collected mountains of intelligence material, through careful omission the numerous press and intelligence reports in the public domain (mainstream media, alternative media, etc.), which confirm that key members of the Bush Administration were involved in acts of political camouflage were carefully removed from the joint inquiry’s hearings.

Porter Goss and Bob Graham were in Islamabad in late August ...

Witnesses of a Captive West: Iryna Zarutska and Charlie Kirk

On August 22, 2025, Iryna Zarutska, a 23-year-old Ukrainian, was murdered on a train in Charlotte, North Carolina, after finishing a shift at a local pizzeria. She had fled her homeland in the hope of a brighter future in a supposedly safer country. A chilling surveillance video captures the moment she was stabbed from behind—three savage thrusts to her neck as she quietly scrolled her phone—before she collapsed in shock and bled out on the train floor. No one stepped forward to help until it wa...

Charlie Kirk’s Assassination Could Change Everything

The assassination of Charlie Kirk is likely to be a pivot point, though the direction after the pivot is anything but clear. From the perspective of a decade hence, what is to come will seem logical and explicable, even inevitable. But right now, we are in the middle and nothing is clear.

What is not in dispute is that Charlie Kirk was a generational talent as a political communicator, in terms of energy and ability far ahead of anyone else. And he was—from every account of the many who knew him...

Keeper of the Flame

Suddenly, the man universally beloved by nearly everyone for his sterling integrity, his devotion to God and family, his indominable patriotism and deep devotion to his country, celebrated, honored and admired, championed from coast-to-coast for his legendary quick wit and adroit speaking ability, is dead – the shocking result of a devastating tragedy which left the nation devastated with deep grief and wrenching uncertainty towards the future. Will the great heroic youth movement he created su...

Erasing Encephalitis: Why Vaccine Brain Injuries Became Autism

I have long believed that public relations (propaganda) is one of the most powerful but invisible forces in our society, as again and again, I’ve seen professional PR firms create narratives most of the country believes (regardless of how much it goes against their self interests). Most remarkably—despite the fact the exact same thing is done again and again to the public—most people simply can’t see it, and oftentimes when you try to point out exactly how they are again being bamboozled by a PR...
