The Best Conspiracy Theory Ever (Isn’t One) – by C.A. Matthews – The Revolution Continues – https://therevolutioncontinues.substack.com/p/the-best-conspiracy-theory-ever-isnt – “I’m as sick as a dog (sorry canines) and trying hard to put out a post this week that makes coherent sense. Please forgive me if it gets ranty or if it ends abruptly… Now, where was I? Oh, yes, I was going to point out that all this craziness that Trump, Vance and Musk (The Three Muskrateers?) are putting out there for public consumption is nothing new. Really, it’s been done before by different a-holes with different names utilizing different industries, lobbyists, foreign entities, and government agencies… Remember the subprime mortgage fiasco of 2008? The “too big to fail” banks were bailed out by the US government. They bailed out the billionaires but not the ordinary folks, and many families lost their homes. If your brain has blocked out that unpleasantness, I apologize for bringing it back into your consciousness, but it’s necessary… In other words, most of this DOGE-ing nastiness of Musk’s is predictable in its unpredictability. He’s hitting every government agency and slashing and burning them except for the one that is profiting his corporations the best, i.e., the Pentagon. So, don’t get fooled again or get caught up in the sleight of hand of used car salesman D. Trump and company… Even a person with a 101 degree Fahrenheit temperature (that’s me) can see the forest for the trees and catch those foxes rummaging through the hen-houses… Okay, that’s a terrible mixed metaphor, so let me simplify the point I’m trying to get across. Here goes: Follow the money… When in doubt why things in a capitalist government are going tits up, just slow down at take look at who is making the most money out of why things of going in such an awful way or being modified to work in an awful way. It’s not just random spitefulness by the Three Muskrateers. There is a method in their madness. Just because you can’t see it right away doesn’t mean it isn’t there.
The “Deep State” that so many bloggers love to post long-winded articles about and yak about for hours on podcasts is just another name for the system of super-rich bastards who run our government and profits from them at the expense of the workers—that is, those people who actually make things we need to live and provide needed services.
Always keep in mind that billionaires/CEOs/oligarchs/fat cats or whatever you wish to call them do not actually create or make things or provide services or do anything worthwhile. They simply hoard money and resources and keep them out of others’ control so they alone can profit from these resources… If billionaires listed their job skills, they’d go something like this: “I inherited a shit-ton of money, and I continue to hoard it and use it to put the competition out of business so I can monopolize a particular corner of the market. And I don’t care who suffers from my actions as long as I come out on top.” – “But that’s not fair,” you, the non-billionaire, whine. “We live in a democracy. What about the rest of us? Don’t we deserve a little piece of the pie?” To that the billionaires reply, “Here’s a crumb. Be satisfied with that or else we’ll stomp you flat, you annoying little ant.”… If this fact hasn’t been pointed out to you yet—and I keep running into people my age and older who appear clueless about this fact—then let me break it to you not so gently here: Western so-called “democracies” or “representative democracies” are inherently undemocratic because of… Hold on to your hats… because of capitalism. The economic system of capitalism serves people like Musk, Bezos, Buffet, Gates, Zuckerberg, and Trump. You’re just the equivalent of a pack mule. You sole purpose in life is to serve (wait for it)… the capitalists. Nothing else… (I can hear the boos and feel the rotten tomatoes being tossed my way even through my awful fever and full body shivers.)… A lot of folks have been propagandized for five, six, seven or eight-plus decades into thinking that the US is the world’s “best democracy” and that Israel is “the only democracy in the Middle East.” Recent events such as the US funding and arming Israel’s genocide in Gaza and the invalid arrest of student-activist Mahmoud Khalil have convinced a good number of those same people into believing these statements the US spreads about its “freedom and democracy” are outright lies… Recognizing the lie is a promising start. Folks are learning to question the status quo. They’re learning to think for themselves… Countries that steal land from indigenous peoples and start wars for oil and resource grabs while refusing to take care of their own people’s health and safety (this would be the US) aren’t inherently democratic. They are more likely to be autocratic. Those on top make sure things work well only for a small minority of very wealthy people, the billionaires/oligarchs, but not so much for those at the bottom, the ones who actually do things that really matter, such as picking crops, teaching children, and building affordable homes… So, to summarize what we’ve learned so far: If you’re not a billionaire (or close to becoming one) you’re pretty much screwed under the current economic and political systems in most Western countries. It doesn’t work for you. It never has. It was never meant to work for the likes of you… Tough break. Get over it… That’s a pretty rough explanation, and it’s the fever talking (probably), but it’s the truth. We can’t expect a system set up by extremely wealthy persons to ever serve the needs of the great unwashed masses of humanity. That’s not how wealthy persons operate… Now that we’ve discerned what’s really ailing our society, and indeed the entire world, we need to find a way to cure it… I go along with Occam’s razor. The simplest way is the best way to tackle any problem. We need to get to the root of all our problems—Musk, Trump, eternal wars for oil, zero affordable health care, racism, hunger and poverty. To ax this root we need to rid ourselves of capitalism, capitalists, billionaires/oligarchs, and all economic or governmental systems that perpetuate this immoral method of crushing the spirits, minds, and bodies of the workers… So, that’s my conspiracy theory. There’s no such thing as a Deep State, because there’s no real need for cloak and dagger games when you’ve brainwashed the masses into thinking there are no other viable options. It has always been just capitalism at work, enslaving the workers, killing and warring its way across the planet into greater profits for those who have more money than they could ever hope to spend in a million lifetimes… But how do we go about achieving the goal of ending capitalism? This is where things could become complicated… The BDS movement and the ongoing boycotts/economic blackouts are fantastic, but we need to do much more than that. We need a much greater percentage of the people to join in on the boycotts. Much greater… (Just In: For all shops, businesses and individuals — Don’t Buy Apartheid https://palestinecampaign.org/campaigns/dont-buy-apartheid/) – We need workers to organize and unionize themselves and make demands for better pay and working conditions. We need them to boldly take on the corporations that have hoarded the profits generated by their labors. We need to demand that corporate profits are distributed fairly to all who have worked hard to actually create them and not just placed into the hands of a few extremely wealthy individuals, i.e. CEOs and owners… We also need to envision a government that would guarantee universal human rights, such as health care for all and free education through college, and then we need to take determined steps to create that new government. Whether that can be done successfully from the ashes of the current system remains to be seen, but we won’t know until we try… But we can’t quit dreaming of a world where everyone lives in peace and safety—with no one fears other countries’ huge military machines stealing their land, homes, and resources. We owe it to our children. And we can’t assume any persons involved in the current travesty of government that supports the mega-wealthy is to be trusted to help build a better one. Let’s kick those boot-licking bums to the curb!… The future is in our hands… The vast majority of humans on this planet… The ones who really matter when push comes to shove… The ones who grow vegetables and make shoes and take care of the elderly and cherish our natural resources… We can’t allow a tiny handful of selfish billionaires ruin everything for the rest of us.”
With thanks to Thomas Harris – Newsome at work… California law treats INGs as grantor trusts for income tax: From PwC – https://www.pwc.com/us/en/services/tax/library/california-law-treats-ings-as-grantor-trusts-for-income-tax.html – “From Pete Hendrickson’s Cracking the Code: “All Constitutionally valid federal taxes within the 50 states must be either direct or indirect. Any tax laid on property or people, and thus unavoidable, is a direct tax. Under the Constitution, federal direct taxes which affect citizens of the several states must be apportioned. Apportionment means the division of the total cost of a tax (such as a $10 per house tax X 100 houses = $1000) among the states proportionate to their percentage of the total national population, with the resulting amount being due from the state. The state is free to collect the money however it wishes.” – “Because of this Constitutional requirement, once someone has come into ownership of money or other property, by fulfilling the terms of a contract, through inheritance, by way of a dividend distribution or however it has been done, that property can only be taxed by means of an apportioned tax. Capitations, or taxes on people, must also be apportioned.”
The taxes which, it is intended, should fall indifferently upon every different species of revenue, are capitation taxes,”… “Capitation taxes, if it is attempted to proportion them to the fortune or revenue of each contributor, become altogether arbitrary. The state ofa man’s fortune varies from day to day, and without an inquisition more intolerable than any tax, and renewed at least once every year, can only be guessed at.”…” Capitation taxes, so far as they are levied upon the lower ranks ofpeople, are direct taxes upon the wages of labour, and are attended with all the inconveniences of such taxes.”… “In the capitation which has been levied in France without any interruption since the beginning ofthe present century, the highest orders of people are rated according to their rank by an invariable tariff; the lower orders of people, according to what is supposed to be their fortune, by an assessment which varies from year to year.” – “This is how Adam Smith, the Father of Economics, defines and describes “capitations” in Book V, CH. II, Art. IV of his seminal treatise on economics and taxation, The Wealth of Nations’. This book, published in 1776, instantly rocketed to the heights as the absolute authority on these subjects throughout the Western World. It remains the single most comprehensive resource on the meaning of the Constitutional term “capitation”… Smith deplores capitations as inequitable, inflationary, counterproductive, and destructive of liberty. Importantly, he makes clear that any tax levied upon and/or measured by the exercise of a basic right- such as the right to life, liberty, the ownership of property, working, or engaging in trade– is a capitation. Indeed, capitations are alternately known as (and get their name from) “head taxes”, because they fall directly – upon the head of the citizen. They must be paid by the citizen, and out of his own funds— simply because he is there, maintaining and exercising his natural powers. The framers of the Constitution were avid and serious
students of Smith’s enormously popular work. (During the turmoil of the revolutionary war years alone, Americans bought the equivalent of more than 233,000 copies if proportioned to today’s population. This is a solid testament to the esteem in which this substantial and serious work— 976 pages of denselypacked small type in my copy- was held.) Agreeing wholeheartedly with his recognition of the evils of unchecked capitations, they specifically prohibited such practices in Article 1 of the Constitution.” – “Any tax which is not apportioned must be indirect, which is to say, laid upon a wholly optional activity. Indirect
taxes, which are denominated as imposts, duties, and excises are also generally funded by someone other than the remitter (the liable party who sends in the money). Indirect taxes generally take the form of a return to the state of a portion of the benefit conveyed by a special privilege, such as the revenue from trade across the national borders, or the salary or other revenue from a public office. Indirect taxes can also be attendant upon the purchase of a taxed, optional article, by which transaction the vendor becomes liable for a tax paid with the consumer’s money. All federal tax within the 50 states must be either direct or indirect- therefore they must all be either apportioned or optional.” – Comment: The “Income” tax, as enforced in the U.S., is entirely UnConstitutional. Despite repeated filings for many years, no court in the United States has ever taken a case on the lawfulness of this tax. What Newsome is trying to do with “grantor” trusts, or inheritances, is even more criminal. But, will the courts take a hand?”Trump Is Now at War With Iran – Let’s call this what it is (Agitation for WWIII) – by Ken Klippenstein – w/Thanks to Etienne de la Boetie2 – https://www.kenklippenstein.com/p/trump-is-now-at-war-with-iran – “Without the American press even noticing, Donald Trump has started a war with Iran… On February 28, the U.S. military announced that two B-52 heavy bombers flying from an “undisclosed location” in the Middle East (which I can report is the country of Qatar) dropped bombs on another “undisclosed location” (Iraq). The message wasn’t lost on neighboring Iran, whose state media warned that the B-52s are “nuclear-capable bombers” carrying a message whose recipient “was clear as day; The Islamic Republic of Iran.” – Clear as day in the Middle East, perhaps, but not in the U.S., where the show of force was barely reported at all. The Pentagon, masters of obscuring controversial things they’re doing behind sleep-inducing jargon, insisted that the B-52 exercises were merely “to assure regional partners,” to “support security and stability in the region,” and so on… Then on March 9, a second bomber demonstration was made: U.S. B-52s flew alongside Israeli fighter jets on long-range missions, practicing aerial refueling and joint operations. Again the American press missed the story; though not the Israeli press, which correctly reported the real purpose of the operation — “readying the Israeli military for a potential joint strike with the U.S. on Iran.” – The military preparations culminated this weekend in a set of U.S. airstrikes on Houthi leadership in Yemen. On Sunday, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz bragged to ABC that the operation “took out” top Houthi officials, making it very clear that this is all about Iran… Waltz said in his interview: – “This was an overwhelming response that actually targeted multiple Houthi leaders and took them out. And the difference here is, one, going after the Houthi leadership, and two, holding Iran responsible.” – At that point, I thought the news media would finally get the message. But the coverage instead adhered to the sterile language of the Pentagon, framing the strikes as focused on logistical targets and a mere continuation of the Biden administration’s small-bore strategy of degrading Houthi capabilities… A representative example appears in the New York Times’ Sunday article on the attack, calling the attack “similar” to those of the Biden administration. Per the article: Air and naval strikes ordered by President Trump hit radars, air defenses, and missile and drone systems in an effort to open international shipping lanes in the Red Sea that the Houthis have disrupted for months with their own attacks. The Biden administration conducted several similar strikes against the Houthis but largely failed to restore deterrence in the region… In The New York Times’ telling, there’s nothing to see here; new boss same as the old. But Biden never targeted Houthi leadership elements in his strikes! Trump has entered into uncharted waters. The media, meanwhile, echoes the Pentagon’s framing of the Houthi strikes as intended “to restore freedom of navigation” in the Red Sea, as U.S. Central Command said in its one-sentence long press release on the strike… Today, Trump went out of his way to advertise that the audience for this operation was Iran. Writing on Truth Social, Trump said, “Every shot fired by the Houthis will be looked upon, from this point forward, as being a shot fired from the weapons and leadership of IRAN, and IRAN will be held responsible, and suffer the consequences, and those consequences will be dire!”
Little noticed amid the torrent of headlines about Elon Musk, DOGE, and the budget fight, Trump’s rhetoric is alarmingly combative. Earlier this month, Trump said he had told Iran in a letter, “I hope you’re going to negotiate, because if we have to go in militarily, it’s going to be a terrible thing for them.” – “Do whatever the hell you want,” Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian said in response, seemingly slamming the door shut on any attempts to pull back from the conflict… Go in militarily? That seems like something we should debate publicly, but that hasn’t happened. Google searches for “war with Iran” spiked several times last year but have almost flatlined since Trump won the election… Trump has embraced what he calls a “maximum pressure” policy on Iran but nobody seems much interested in what that means. Now he’s attacking in Yemen, signaling more to come, and preparing for an even larger campaign to fight Iran directly… To end a war you first have to admit you’re fighting one. The media seems wholly unwilling to do this, instead parroting the Pentagon’s assurances that this is all perfectly normal. Go back to bed, America! – Tomorrow I’ll report on the Pentagon’s Iran war plans.”Exposing the Truth: New Zealand Medical Council, Pharmaceutical Industry, and Government Complicity in the COVID-19 narrative – by Kelvyn Alp, New Zealand Loyal party – https://nzloyal.com/exposing-the-truth-new-zealand-medical-council-pharmaceutical-industry-and-government-complicity-in-the-covid-19-narrative/ – “The New Zealand Medical Council’s (NZMC) relentless pursuit of Dr. Samantha Bailey is a stark reminder of the militant tactics employed by those who seek to maintain the crumbling narrative surrounding COVID-19. The NZMC, in tandem with the pharmaceutical industry and the New Zealand government, have peddled and profited from this fraud, leaving a trail of death, destruction, and devastation in their wake… The charges brought against Dr. Bailey, including “Covid-19 (Established)” and “Public safety compromised (Established),” are nothing short of farcical. With no evidence of harm caused by her actions, the NZMC has relied on the tainted opinions of government-aligned experts like Helen Petoussis-Harris and Dr. Michelle Balm. Both “experts” simply asserted that public safety could be compromised without providing a single case… The NZMC’s actions are a clear case of selective enforcement, designed to silence dissenting voices and maintain the illusion of a pandemic. Dr. Bailey’s views on COVID-19 have been portrayed as a risk to public safety, while her books, such as “The Final Pandemic,” which meticulously dismantle the COVID narrative, have been conveniently ignored… The mainstream media’s (MSM) complicity in this charade is equally appalling. Their silence on Dr. Bailey’s wider publications and the NZMC’s actions raise serious questions about their independence and commitment to truth. Why haven’t government experts refuted the Bailey’s work, particularly Dr. Mark Bailey’s treatise “A Farewell to Virology”? The MSM’s failure to report on this matter is a stark reminder of their role in perpetuating the SARS-CoV-2 myth… The imposition of unprecedented costs, exceeding $148,000, on Dr. Bailey, for a show trial she did not participate in, is a blatant example of the NZMC’s corruption and collusion with the pharmaceutical industry. This money has lined the pockets of beneficiaries in the legal system, further highlighting the entrenched interests at play… The New Zealand government’s role in this debacle can not be overstated. Their militant application of the SARS-CoV-2 narrative has led to untold suffering, financial ruin, and loss of life. It is imperative that the government, NZMC, and pharmaceutical industry be held accountable for their actions… The people of New Zealand deserve answers. They deserve to know the truth about the SARS-CoV-2 myth and the motivations behind NZMC’s actions. It is time for transparency, accountability, and justice… Furthermore, it is essential to acknowledge that the Wuhan Lab Leak narrative, [the back up story] is merely another means to perpetuate the already discredited virus myth. This narrative shift aims to maintain the illusion of a deadly virus while deflecting attention from the actual culprits behind the pandemic: those who pushed unnecessary lockdowns, mask mandates, and experimental injections. With the MSM peddling this new narrative, the powers that be seek to salvage their credibility and maintain control over the narrative while continuing to line their pockets with profits from this and future ‘pandemics.”Reiner Fuellmich Update – by James Roguski – https://jamesroguski.substack.com/p/reiner-fuellmich-update – “Reiner Fuellmich has been held in pre-trial detention for far longer than average (17 months in a high-security prison in Rosdorf, Germany). Kept in Ward 0, where newbies initially are held along with the most mentally ill, violent and drug-addicted people. Reiner should not be held there. As a result, Reiner is in daily physical and psychological danger… The prison conditions have placed Reiner under psychological pressure including white torture. White torture, often referred to as white room torture, is a type of psychological torture technique aimed at complete sensory deprivation and isolation. A prisoner is held in a cell, devoid of any color besides white, that is designed to deprive them of all senses and identity… Reiner is a essentially a political prisoner because of his advocacy for health and for freedom of speech in Germany and around the world. Even state security files show that every effort is being made to prevent Reiner from holding political office and disseminating his information and research to the world… Please watch the videos below:
