FAKE NEWS is DYING

 Maybe it was the Russia, Russia, Russia Trump-collusion hoax that began the massive downfall of the fake news industrial complex (FNIC) of America. It could have been the Hunter Biden laptop narrative that fell apart in their faces and proved to be a real story. Possibly the 3.5-year coverup of Dementia Joe’s cognitive decline put the nails in the coffin for mainstream media’s demise in the eyes of the populace.

Most likely, it was all of the above, compounded by truth news exposing the lies, and Donald J. Trump calling them “fake news” repeatedly while whistleblowers across the spectrum of media proved so many of the “conspiracy theories” of the Right were actual prerogatives and insidious actions of the Left. 

Newspapers, television and radio news is nearly all 'fake news', or biased at the very least, mainly when it comes to health, safety, border security, proxy wars, and American rights, but still millions of Democrats are brainwashed by the mudslide avalanche of propaganda daily. ...<<<Read More>>>...

Divide and Conquer: The Government’s Propaganda of Fear and Fake News

 “Nothing is real,” observed John Lennon, and that’s especially true of politics.

Much like the fabricated universe in Peter Weir’s 1998 film The Truman Show, in which a man’s life is the basis for an elaborately staged television show aimed at selling products and procuring ratings, the political scene in the United States has devolved over the years into a carefully calibrated exercise in how to manipulate, polarize, propagandize and control a population.

Take the media circus that is the Donald Trump hush money trial, which panders to the public’s voracious appetite for titillating, soap opera drama, keeping the citizenry distracted, diverted and divided.

This is the magic of the reality TV programming that passes for politics today.

Everything becomes entertainment fodder.

As long as we are distracted, entertained, occasionally outraged, always polarized but largely uninvolved and content to remain in the viewer’s seat, we’ll never manage to present a unified front against tyranny (or government corruption and ineptitude) in any form.

Studies suggest that the more reality TV people watch—and I would posit that it’s all reality TV, entertainment news included—the more difficult it becomes to distinguish between what is real and what is carefully crafted farce.

“We the people” are watching a lot of TV.

On average, Americans spend five hours a day watching television. By the time we reach age 65, we’re watching more than 50 hours of television a week, and that number increases as we get older. And reality TV programming consistently captures the largest percentage of TV watchers every season by an almost 2-1 ratio.

This doesn’t bode well for a citizenry able to sift through masterfully-produced propaganda in order to think critically about the issues of the day.

Yet look behind the spectacles, the reality TV theatrics, the sleight-of-hand distractions and diversions, and the stomach-churning, nail-biting drama that is politics today, and you will find there is a method to the madness.

We have become guinea pigs in a ruthlessly calculated, carefully orchestrated, chillingly cold-blooded experiment in how to control a population and advance a political agenda without much opposition from the citizenry.

This is how you persuade a populace to voluntarily march in lockstep with a police state and police themselves (and each other): by ratcheting up the fear-factor, meted out one carefully calibrated crisis at a time, and teaching them to distrust any who diverge from the norm through elaborate propaganda campaigns.

Unsurprisingly, one of the biggest propagandists today is the U.S. government....<<<Read More>>>...

Fake news curated by the Deep State: Government spin doctors control the news cycle

Let's talk about fake news stories, shall we?

There's the garden variety fake news that is not really "news" so much as it is titillating, tabloid-worthy material peddled by anyone with a Twitter account, a Facebook page and an active imagination. These stories run the gamut from the ridiculous and the obviously click-baity to the satirical and politically manipulative.

Anyone with an ounce of sense and access to the Internet should be able to ferret out the truth and lies in these stories with some basic research. That these stories flourish is largely owing to the general gullibility, laziness and media illiteracy of the general public, which through its learned compliance rarely questions, challenges or confronts.

Then there's the more devious kind of news stories circulated by one of the biggest propagators of fake news: the U.S. government.

In the midst of the government and corporate media's carefully curated apoplexy over fake news, you won't hear much about the government's own role in producing, planting and peddling propaganda-driven fake news — often with the help of the corporate news media — because that's not how the game works.

Why?

Because the powers-that-be don't want us skeptical of the government's message or its corporate accomplices in the mainstream media. They don't want us to be more discerning when it comes to what information we digest online. They just want us to be leery of independent or alternative news sources while trusting them — and their corporate colleagues — to vet the news for us.

Indeed, in recent years, Facebook and Google have conveniently appointed themselves the arbiters of truth on the internet in order to screen out what is blatantly false, spam or click-baity.

Not only does this establish a dangerous precedent for all-out censorship by corporate entities known for colluding with the government but it's also a slick sleight-of-hand maneuver that diverts attention from what we should really be talking about: the fact that the government has grown dangerously out-of-control, all the while the so-called mainstream news media, which is supposed to act as a bulwark against government propaganda, has instead become the mouthpiece of the world's largest corporation — the U.S. government....<<<Read More>>>...

Zelensky Says His Goal is to Turn Ukraine Into a ‘Greater Israel’

 So sayeth the FAKE president who is the comedian who REALLY resides in a multi million mansion in the US and pretends he is in Ukraine.

[David Icke]: President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday announced his goal for Ukraine is to turn it into a “Greater Israel.”

From Mil.in.ua, “Security will become our number one priority. Ukraine will become a ‘Greater Israel’ — Zelensky”:
Ukraine will not become a “liberal” state in the near future, and the issues of security will become our number one priority, said Volodymyr Zelensky, President of Ukraine, per NV reports.

“Ukraine will definitely not be the same as we strived for from the very beginning. It’s impossible. Completely liberal and European — it will not be like that. It will definitely stand from the fortress of every house, every building, every person,” he said during his interview with the Ukrainian journalists.

According to the Head of State, Ukraine will become the “Greater Israel”.

“We will become a ‘Greater Israel’ with our own face. We will not be surprised if there are representatives of the Armed Forces or the National Guard in our cinemas and supermarkets; if those places would have people carrying weapons. I am convinced that the issue of security will be the number one priority for us in the next ten years. I am sure of this,” he said.

Back in February, as Russian forces were amassing on Ukraine’s eastern border, Zelensky was busy getting a law passed to outlaw anti-Semitism and punish those convicted of violating the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s broad definition of anti-Semitism with fines and five to eight-year prison sentences.

Ticketmaster Plans To Require Negative COVID Test Or Proof Of Vaccine When Events Resume

This is apparently FAKE NEWS. Ticketmaster have apparently not made such claims.

[Collective Evolution]: Ticketmaster is looking to have event attendees prove they have a COVID-19 vaccine or proof of a negative COVID test prior to attending any events.

Are we seeing basic freedoms and enjoyable experiences within life become inaccessible for those that don't wish to participate in extreme COVID measures? What is this fear driven approach saying about our general view of life at this time?

We’ve all been confused and unsure of what ‘the new normal’ will look like. Heck, why are we even talking about a new normal in the context of more centralized power and control? What about a new normal in a world where humanity can truly thrive? Is this not worthy of a conversation? Nonetheless, the mainstream plan for ‘new normal’ is becoming clear, and it’s precisely what we’ve been projecting would happen...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Images Don’t Always Tell the Story: How Social Media Dumbs Down Critical Thought

[Wake Up World]: Some years ago, the alternative news media began to be hijacked, and mixed in with political ardency from one side or another. The resulting misinformation belittled alternative news, just as it was starting to gain legitimacy alongside the mainstream.

This was years after Facebook for instance removed the option which allowed you to either scroll through most recent posts, or most popular. The result was that not only were alternative news sources mitigated and articles relegated, but your feed was then and has now been infiltrated by corporations with snazzy pictures and videos, posing as contemporaries, spouting the benefits of some snake oil idea or product.

This has led to more of what social media giants had said they were trying to eliminate. Of course, your whole network is an echo chamber – but more importantly, it has become an echo chamber of utter bullshit stories -in pictures. The pictures include some conspiracy theory speculation and literally dumb down the collective discussion to the point people have to ask really, really stupid questions so as to clear the scene before even investigating it...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

German prosecutors say they have 'concrete evidence, not mere indications' that Madeleine McCann is dead in hammer blow to parents' hopes

REALLY? How can this German dude have murdered MM, when she had been whisked off somewhere else by someone else? Did this German dude have an accomplish, as Kate McCann said 'they've taken her, not HE'S taken her' ... and then there were all the genuine 100% sightings of MM which the MSM tried their best efforts to dismiss, BECAUSE THEY WANTED THE WORLD TO BELIEVE THE PARENTS HAD KILLED MM ...but now 13 years on someone wants everyone to believe this German dude killed her. 

No sorry, this is exactly the cloud making distraction bullshit we've come to associate with this case ...

[Daily Mail]: German prosecutors say they have 'concrete evidence' Madeleine McCann is dead, in a major blow for the hopes of the missing girl's parents.

Authorities in Germany made the stunning revelation in early June that they were investigating a 43-year-old suspect over her disappearance, saying they believe he killed her.

'It is concrete evidence, facts that we have, not mere indications,' Brunswick prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters said, adding that he was unable to disclose exact information....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>...

Scientist who claims coronavirus came from SPACE by meteor says prevailing winds are spreading the disease to the hardest-hit countries

More like the CoVid-19 particles have been released in chemtrails; and in the areas where the real 5G has been rolled out, the virus has been 'activated' by EMF triggering.

[Daily Mail]: A scientist who believes coronavirus came from space by meteor now says prevailing winds are spreading the disease to the hardest-hit countries.

Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe of the Buckingham Centre for Astrobiology has alleged that the meteor that exploded over China in October released viral particles.

Once in the upper stratosphere, the virus either fell to Earth or got caught up in the stratospheric air currents that circle the Earth, he told MailOnline.

From here, the virus has spread along 'a global band of between 40–60° latitude north', with all the 'main strong cases' appearing 'exactly along that range', he said.

'The sudden outbreak of a new coronavirus is very likely to have a space connection,' Professor Wickramasinghe told The Express in February.

The astrobiologist is a proponent of 'panspermia' — the theory that life is seeded across the universe by travelling on meteors, comets and space dust.

A meteor was seen as a blazing, bright fireball flying across the sky in the north-east of the country at around 12:16 am on October 11, 2019.

The space rock — which reportedly shone so brightly that it made the night sky look light day — is thought to have disintegrated in the atmosphere....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

7-year-old children left psychologically terrorized after hearing Greta Thunberg speech… “I don’t want to die!”

[Natural News]: Children have been coming home from school afraid for their future, afraid for their lives. Some kids now believe they have less than ten years to live because of something that has been pounded in their heads — a political dogma called climate change. Children are being told that nothing is being done to address rising temperatures and carbon emissions.

They are told that civilization will soon collapse if we don’t take action now. Climate change sensationalism is terrorizing kids, making them believe that they are going to die before they become adults.

Teaching kids about environmental stewardship is a good objective, but filling their brains with climate sensationalism and predictions about the end of the world can have a traumatic and lasting effect on their thinking and their life...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Liar Adam Schiff now turns his attention to VP Mike Pence, claiming he has “evidence” of Ukraine corruption

[Natural News]: For more than two years, Rep. Adam Schiff claimed that he had overwhelming evidence that President Donald Trump “colluded” with Russia to “steal the election” from Hillary Clinton in 2016.

“I certainly said there’s ample evidence of collusion,” Schiff claimed during an appearance on “The View” when asked about it by co-host Megan McCain in March 2018.

“If you look at the facts that are already in the public domain, they’re pretty damning starting with George Papadopoulos,” he continued.

“We know that Papadopoulos was approached by the Russians and told back in April of the election year (2016) before the Clinton campaign knew that the Russians had stolen … DNC e-mails and we also know they previewed their anonymous dissemination of those e-mails with Papadopoulos back in April,” the California Democrat and chairman of the House Intelligence Committee noted.

“Now it was only weeks later that the Russians made a second approach to the Trump campaign, this time at the highest levels at Trump Tower in a meeting that they previewed by saying that they wanted to offer incriminating information about Hillary,” Schiff said.

None of this is accurate. As for Papadopoulos, we know that he was set up by rogue FBI agents under James Comey and Andrew McCabe who launched “Crossfire Hurricane” — a.k.a. Spygate — to undermine President Trump’s 2016 campaign and then his administration after he won...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Science-illiterate Seattle Times claims carbon MONOXIDE causes plants to produce more pollen, which is why climate change is bad… huh?

Here we have an article fully worthy of the Bullshit Meter maximum reading of 10 (Out of 10) ... sorry, but anyone who believes any of these insane claims about the climate need to wear a strait jacket!

[Natural News]: The deranged climate hysterics who work at The Seattle Times have been caught fear-mongering about the alleged threat of carbon monoxide – not carbon dioxide, or CO2, the usual target – which the paper hilariously claims is causing plants to produce too much planet-destroying pollen.

As part of a continued effort to create as many climate anxiety-inducing headlines and graphics as possible, The Seattle Times published an article recently claiming that plants are “producing more pollen because of increased levels of carbon monoxide in the air, prolonging allergy season.”

The same article goes on to claim that in addition to producing more pollen, increased carbon monoxide “reduces nutrients in the plants we eat,” while greenhouse gases “chew away at the ozone, leading to an increased risk of skin cancer.”

First of all, since when is carbon monoxide the bogeyman when it comes to climate change? Last we checked, carbon dioxide is the substance that leftists claim is melting the polar ice caps, flooding the streets of Miami during high tides, and ruining the childhood and future of Greta Thunberg.

Somehow, it’s now the carbon compounds released by the burning of gasoline and wood that are the real threat to planetary subsistence, not the carbon compounds that plants have fed on since the beginning of time, releasing oxygen for us to breathe as a byproduct.

Suffice it to say that none of what The Seattle Times is claiming about carbon monoxide, pollen, plants, the ozone, and skin cancer, has any basis in reality. In fact, it’s all a bunch of completely made-up pseudoscientific nonsense, though it’s reportedly causing an epidemic of “climate anxiety” among people who actually believe this tripe....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

The News Churn Memory Hole: How The MSM Lies Even When Telling The Truth

[David Icke]: This goofy ass Trump letter is gonna get more outraged coverage than the bombshell report on the entire Afghanistan war being a lie and frankly I don’t know if I can handle that right now,” popular Youtube commentator Kyle Kulinski tweeted today.

The post was just one of the many observations that Kulinski tosses into the Twitterverse every day, presented in his typical casual, offhand way without any self-significance. But if you actually pause and think about what he’s saying here, how true it is and what it says about the mass media institutions which people rely upon to form their worldviews, it’s actually a damning indictment of our entire society.

It is a fact that far more news media energy is going into one trivial aspect of an impeachment agenda that will with absolute certainty fail to remove Trump from office than there is for the known fact that the US government fought to suppress indisputable proof that American officials have been consistently lying about an 18-year military occupation which continues to this day.

This fact should, by itself, be sufficient to completely discredit the mainstream press. This one tiny piece of information, that there’s vastly more buzz about an irrelevant impeachment sideshow than there is over the Afghanistan Papers, should in and of itself cause everyone to regard the entire establishment media complex with the same amount of respect as it gives the Flat Earth Society.

But it doesn’t. People are so hypnotized by the endless drama of the mass media news churn that all context and sense of proportionality is lost to them. They stand transfixed by the latest kayfabe combat between the two puppets in America’s two-headed one-party system like an infant distracted from the cause of its outrage by a set of shiny, dangling keys...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>

New Law Requires You To Listen To Greta Thunberg Lecture Before Purchasing Gasoline

[Babylon Bee]:A series of new bills working their way through state legislatures in New York, California, Oregon, Hawaii, and several other progressive states will require you to listen to a Greta Thunberg lecture before purchasing gasoline.

Motorists will be required to watch a 20-minute lecture by the 16-year-old climate activist before they purchase gallons and gallons of harmful fossil fuels.

"We want to make sure drivers are informed," said California Governor Gavin Newsom, who says he will sign the bill into law. "So we are having them get lectured by a 16-year-old so they will have all the facts before they do something rash like put gasoline in their cars to go to work."

Once the driver has listened to Thunberg's entire lecture, they will be prompted to complete a quick, fifteen-question quiz to show they understand how horrible they are for driving a car. Drivers who get at least 80% will then be allowed to refuel their vehicles. As they refuel, the screen will simply play a clip of Thunberg saying, "How dare you!" over and over again.

The law will not apply to celebrities purchasing jet fuel....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

FBI uncovers real-life “Frankenstein” operation where human body parts are being stolen from deceased family members and used to create freakish monster humans

Fake news, right? What is the primary source of this story? Or, is it 100% spot on? A scary thought if it is.

[Natural News]: The Phoenix, Arizona-based Biological Resource Center (BRC) is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for allegedly operating as an illicit, black market human body parts dealer, all while claiming to be a “biological life sciences” company.

Plaintiffs in a new lawsuit say that BRC has been falsely advertising itself as a company that supposedly collects the remains of people’s dead relatives and salvages them for medical purposes, cremating whatever is leftover and returning the ashes to the families. But in reality, BRC was actually harvesting body parts from corpses and selling them, among other crimes.

While investigating the matter, FBI agents reportedly found “buckets of heads, arms and legs,” as well as “male genitalia” and a torso “with the head removed and replaced with a similar head sewn together in a Frankenstein manner” at the BRC facility, according to a recent testimony given by FBI Assistant Special Agent Mark Cwynar.

In addition to these body parts and “Frankenstein” corpses, law enforcement agents also connected the operation to the black market, as a 2013 court filing shows a pricing schedule for these and other body parts....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Vaccines now being used to harvest biometric identities of everyone; Big Brother merges with Big Pharma

We question the primary source of this potential propaganda scare mongering article. It sound like something straight from the elite fake news factory. Put out into the net lands to see how far it can travel, and see how much fear it can create.

[Natural News]: It’s all happening, just as we predicted. Big Pharma is officially partnering with the tech industry to pair “immunization” with digital biometrics, meaning humans will soon be microchipped, tracked, and ultimately controlled through a global identification matrix.

The ID2020 Alliance, as it’s being called, is a digital identity program that aims to “leverage immunization” as a means of inserting tiny microchips into people’s bodies. In collaboration with the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunizations, also known as GAVI, the government of Bangladesh and various other “partners in government, academia, and humanitarian relief,” the ID2020 Alliance hopes to usher in this mark of the beast as a way to keep tabs on every human being living on Earth.

Similar to how cattle are marked with ear tags, this globalist alliance wants all humans to be “vaccinated” with digital tracking chips that will create a seamless monitoring system for the New World Order to manage the populations of the world with ease....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

SECRET AGENDA: Globalists are using vaccines and pesticide-laden food to kill off humanity

[Natural News]: There’s a mass population reduction scheme underway, but it’s not because the world’s too crowded or there’s “not enough food” to feed the masses.

The Deep State government wants complete control of you and your children, and that’s easier to accomplish if everyone is living in a cloud, sick and confused, malnourished and toxic.

Over-population is a fake problem. It’s fake news, just like global warming.

The Globalists and the Democrats are pushing hard to convince everyone that global warming and overpopulation are real, so we’ll all vote for Big Government to come save us from ourselves, by taxing us heavily and force injecting us with those “safe and effective” vaccines. We must grow genetically modified food to save the starving, over-populated world, or so they claim. Then you drive 30 minutes outside of just about any metropolitan city and it’s nothing but forests, mountains, or farm land.

The news won’t talk about what’s really wrong with our world, like pesticide-laden food and mercury-laced flu shots and nuclear poison leaking from Fukushima into the ocean (600 times higher than “safe” levels). The mass media won’t mention that antibiotics are so overused in the CAFO farm animals and in U.S. hospitals that they’re all about to become obsolete, while superbugs (antibiotic-resistant virus and bacteria) spread out of control at your favorite hospitals and doctor’s offices.

Did you know that vaccines spread diseases more than they prevent them. It’s called virus shedding and it’s real. Check the facts. What’s worse is that those diseases are not just the wild ones, they are genetically modified and contain cells from human abortions and African green monkey kidneys.

It’s a medical horror story not many people know, or they would also realize this is a form of population control, and it’s working quite well. Kids develop autism, central nervous system disorders, and of course, fertility issues. That’s why Big Pharma pushes the HPV vaccine on 9-year-young girls. It’s not about preventing cancer, especially when that type of cancer comes from sharing heroin needles and from having sex with prostitutes...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

The Basics of a Staged Bioterror Attack

[Waking Times]: There are future scenarios which, with enough exposure before they’re staged, can be stopped—or at least analyzed correctly when they occur.

A calculated bioterror event is one of those.

The primary fact is: no matter what kind of germ you’re talking about or where it came from, releasing it intentionally does not guarantee predictable results. Far from it.

For instance, people whose immune systems operate at different levels of strength are going to react differently.

The perpetrators may find that less than 2% of people exposed get sick or die.

But there is another strategy that should be understood:

The use of a germ as a cover story for a chemical.

In other words, there is no germ attack. It’s called a germ attack, but that’s a lie. The perps bring in researchers to the affected area, who go on to claim they have isolated a germ that is the cause of death and illness. It’s a sham. What really happened was:

The spread of a toxic chemical that can’t be detected, unless you’re looking for it.

The chemical has severe, deadly, and predictable effects for a week or two. Then it disperses and loses potency and the “epidemic” is done.

In some town, a fairly isolated community, the word goes out that people are suddenly falling ill and dying. The CDC and the Army are called in to cordon off the area and quarantine all citizens. A peremptory announcement is made, early on, that this is a biowar attack.

Major media are allowed outside the periphery. Network news anchors set up on-location and do their wall to wall broadcasts “from the scene.”

The entire nation, the entire world, is riveted on the event, 24/7...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Remember the dog sled picture the media claimed was proof of melting glaciers? It was another climate hysteria HOAX

Greenland has been featuring heavily on ITV news in the UK recently. They are quoting the ice melting on Greenland as unequivocal proof that climate change has become an emergency. 

It's fake news and is part of the narrative to create terror and utter fear in the human race as part of a brainwashing campaign by the world elite so they can implement mass culling of humans, and push the survivors away from rural, and nature environs; and force them to live as slaves in their smart cities to 'save the planet'. 

WAKE UP WORLD, and see the huge sinister agenda now being played out. One that St Greta is VERY much part of

[Natural News]: One by one, various climate hoaxes continue to be exposed as the fake news they’ve always been.

The photo shown right, which has been heavily circulating recently as “evidence” that global warming is melting the polar ice caps, is a certifiable fraud. 

It was taken in 1984, and it depicts the same area of melted sea water that occurs in this particular region of Greenland every single summer.

There’s nothing at all unusual about this area of Greenland turning from ice to water annually whenever the temperatures naturally warm as a result of seasonal changes. But to climate lunatics everywhere, it somehow “proves” that man-made global warming is real, requiring more climate taxes and laws restricting how much meat people are allowed to eat.

According to the official doctrines of climate change, the changing of the seasons is now considered to be “scientific evidence” that people are driving too many SUVs and unnecessarily allowing their cows to fart – and the world is going to end in 12 years as a result.

It’s complete insanity, and the type of thing that, even just 10 years ago, would have originated on a satire site. But in 2019, climate confusion and global warming derangement have become the norm among gullible leftists who would seem to believe everything they’re told by the mainstream media.

“The mainstream media used to be a source of news, but it has increasingly become a tool of manipulation,” writes Onar Åm for Liberty Nation....read more>>>...
