The Western mainstream media have never been so blatant in their propaganda for the U.S. empire
The Western mainstream media have never been so blatant in their propaganda for the U.S. empire.
The pretensions are threadbare. As the warmongering U.S. government/regime and its Western/NATO imperialist lackeys are becoming more exposed and desperate to maintain credibility, so too are their media tools. The likes of the New York Times, BBC, CNN – and many more – are a contemptible joke on the public. They are an insult to common intelligence.

NATO’s Secretary General, Jens Stoltenberg, during an interview in NATO’s Brussels headquarters, with the Washington Post’s Editorial Board, represented by Lee Hockstader, and published by the WP on May 9th, said that Ukraine definitely will become a NATO member. Here are the key excerpts, and their meaning:
“All NATO allies agree that Ukraine will become a member of the alliance. All allies agree that Ukraine has the right to choose its own path, that it is not for Moscow, but for Kyiv, to decide.”

Anyone familiar with the housing market conditions post-pandemic knows that cash buyers and institutions consistently outbid the average buyer. I know a realtor who has spoken primarily to consultants working on behalf of companies, and they’re willing to purchase properties over-market on a consistent basis. They know they can buy these properties and rent them out for a fraction of what they paid because they have the liquidity to do so. Currently, BlackRock is the largest landlord in America, with over $120 billion in residential real estate.

Actress Charlize Theron issued a warning to opponents of the LGBTQ community Sunday night during the ‘Drag Isn’t Dangerous’ fundraising telethon.
It is true that for thousands of years, men have dressed in women’s clothing, what we call drag, and this can be traced all the way back to Sodom and Gomorrah in the book of Genesis. It is also true that, due to the overarching effeminate nature of drag, that these lost souls have rarely posed a threat, and as such, were not historically considered to be dangerous. But what is highly dangerous is exposing children to drag performers via live shows, story hours at the local library and all the rest of that garbage. The grooming and recruitment of children via drag shows is one reason for the explosive growth of the LGBTQIA+ Movement.

After pulling back slightly in February, Americans went back to borrowing on credit cards in March — despite record-high interest rates. This indicates that consumers continue to struggle to make ends meet in this deteriorating economy. It also reveals that the Fed’s monetary tightening is not cooling spending as promised.
Consumer debt spiked by another $26.5 billion in March, a 6.6% increase year on year, according to the latest data from the Federal Reserve. It was the biggest jump in total consumer debt in four months.

After Tucker Carlson announced Tuesday that his show would soon be returning on Twitter, CNN released a report calling Carlson a ‘right wing extremist.’
The report was from Oliver Darcy, who used to work for the Daily Caller and The Blaze, before joining CNN and becoming a voice for the far left.
Tucker Carlson is many things, but a right wing extremist is not one of them.

Most Americans agree that a person’s legal sex is defined by their biology — not by a private feeling of “gender identity” — according to a Washington Post-KFF poll.
The survey found that most Americans believe that the status of being a man or woman is wholly determined by biology. Fifty-seven percent across the board agree that gender is based on that alone. Just 43 percent believe a person’s sex is determined by a person’s sense of their “gender.”
There is a consensus across all age ranges, including the youngest generation surveyed — those ages 18-34 — where 53 percent agree that sex is based on biology.

The World Health Organization (WHO) is still going ahead with its global digital health certificate even as it claims the COVID-19 scamdemic is finally over. The medical tyranny being pushed on the public is still there and is only going to get worse.
WHO Declares An END To COVID-19 Scamdemic
The implementation of the digital health certificate is among the 307 amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHR) proposed by 94 member nations of the WHO, according to Natural News. The proposed amendments to the IHR are a completely different set of proposals to the “Pandemic Treaty.” Amendments to the IHR were adopted in 2022 without Senate/Parliament confirmation. These amendments could easily be adopted in the same manner.
