Many people have written in and asked how can Trump be charged under the Espionage Act. There is probably no other Act that has been so abused than this statute. It has been responsible for witch hunts and the deliberate execution of people the prosecutors knew were innocent. This Act has silenced people, been used to imprison people for speaking against the government in times of war, and even imprisoned Japanese for simply being Japanese under nothing more than an executive order Public Proclamation No. 4, 7 Fed.Reg. 2601. And on May 19, 1942, eleven days before the time a Japanese petitioner was charged with unlawfully remaining in the area, Civilian Restrictive Order No. 1, 8 Fed.Reg. 982, provided for the detention of those of Japanese ancestry in assembly or relocation centers. One of the top 5 worst decisions of the Supreme Court declaring Blacks were just property in Dred Scott v. Sandford 60 U.S. 393 (1856), but so was the imprisonment of Japanese Americans during World War II solely based on their race – Korematsu v. United States, 323 U.S. 214 (1944)
Justice Robert H. Jackson (1892–1954) dissented writing “Korematsu … has been convicted of an act not commonly thought a crime. It consists merely of being present in the state whereof he is a citizen, near the place where he was born, and where all his life he has lived.” Jackson argued that the nation’s wartime security concerns did not justify stripping Korematsu and the other internees of their constitutionally protected civil rights.
Nobody would listen to reason. Jackson declared that the exclusion order was “the legalization of racism”that violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. He compared the exclusion order to the “abhorrent and despicable treatment of minority groups by the dictatorial tyrannies which this nation is now pledged to destroy.” He concluded that the exclusion order violated the Fourteenth Amendment by “fall[ing] into the ugly abyss of racism.”
Welcome to reality. Whenever the self-interest of those in power is in conflict with the rule of law, the rule of law is ALWAYS ignored. They are doing that with Trump right now and all the RINOs cheering and arresting Trump on his birthday show just how evil these people truly are. With every cheer the RINOs make, they prove Mark Twain was always right.
t has always been IMPOSSIBLE to hand ANY power to the government under the pretense that it is necessary for some good. Any regulation carries some penalty for noncompliance. Then this opens the door to abuse as we see with Trump. When Congress passes a law, prosecutors make a career out of twisting the words to fit whatever they can dream up. On top of that Congress always expands its power and never was there any “intent” behind the Espionage Act to be used in this manner against a former president. In its current incarnation, the section Trump is charged with reads:
18 USC #793(e)
(e) Whoever having unauthorized possession of, access to, or control over any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, or note relating to the national defense, or information relating to the national defense which information the possessor has reason to believe could be used to the injury of the United States or to the advantage of any foreign nation, willfully communicates, delivers, transmits or causes to be communicated, delivered, or transmitted, or attempts to communicate, deliver, transmit or cause to be communicated, delivered, or transmitted the same to any person not entitled to receive it, or willfully retains the same and fails to deliver it to the officer or employee of the United States entitled to receive it; or
The abuse of this law is mindboggling and the real problem here is that prosecutors have discretion so they can openly deny Equal Protection of the Law for they decide if they want to prosecute Trump but not Biden or Pence or Hillary who did have classified documents on her server and did transmit them. I believe that Jack Smith as the prosecutor has violated not just Trump’s civil rights, but he has violated everyone’s civil rights for his selective prosecution with the intent of preventing Trump from running for president.
The Supreme Court held in Armstrong v US, 517 U.S. 456 (1996)that to show selective prosecution, an individual must show that a prosecutorial policy had both a discriminatory purpose and a discriminatory effect. In other words, they must show that prosecutors did not charge similarly situated people and that can clearly be established with both Biden and Hillary Clinton.
There should be a class action lawsuit brought against Jack Smith and the Attorney General for deliberating targeting Trump to interfere in the 2024 election which violates everyone’s civil rights denying us that the 2024 election will be free and fair. It is an acknowledged violation of our Civil Rights for what the entire world now knows they are doing – interfering in the 2024 election.
Of course, all of these RINOs and disgusting people pretending to care about the country or the rule of law, are out in full force driving their knives and stabbing Trump like corrupt senators did to Julius Caesar 23 times. History will remember their names as it remembered Brutus and Cassius. This will be the day that truly lives in infamy. Mike Pence, who I would not vote for even being a local dog catcher, has joined the choir of attacking Trump to save the SWAMP. John Kelly, Trump’s pretend chief of staff who the Neocons put in place since he was previously in the Marine Corps Liaison Office. Remember all their names and NEVER vote for any of them EVER in the future. When you see them in someone’s cabinet, know that the administration can never be trusted. They are against the people, and the constitution, and only support the corruption that is destroying our nation from the inside out – the SWAMP.
The first Espionage Act was passed with the American Revolution. It was passed July 6, 1798, and this is all omitted from the Federal Criminal Code and Rules which are standard today. If Trump would declare he now identifies as a woman, or a lesbian because he enjoys women, then under the Espionage Act of 1798 he could not be guilty. Congress at the time was engaged in writing laws for the PURPOSE (Intent) of protecting the Government, growing out of serious friction with France. Interestingly, it did NOT apply to women. It only applied specifically to natives, citizens, denizens (an inhabitant of a particular place such as a forest), or subjects of a hostile nation of Government, “being males of the age of 14 years and upwards.”
Curiously, it was World War I before they passed a new Espionage Act in 1917, yet they did not repeal nor amend the 1798 Act. It addressed the loophole with women. It merely supplemented the Espionage Act of 1798 statute providing for punishments concerning a woman stating that she may then be interned or punished for violation of any of the espionage laws. The Espionage Act of 1798 gave the president the executive power to restrict certain areas. It even then allows a woman to be executed if she was caught trying to transmit any information which has for one of its purposes visiting an area that is restricted like taking photos of defense ships etc. By 1917, they figured out that some of the very best spies were actually women. That is when Mata Hari, the dancer, was executed by firing squad in France.
On June 15, 1917, some two months after America’s formal entrance into World War I against Germany, the United States Congress passed the Espionage Act. The Espionage Act essentially made it a crime for any person to convey information intended to interfere with the U.S. armed forces during the war effort or to promote the success of the country’s enemies. Anyone found guilty of such acts would be subject to a fine of $10,000 and a prison sentence of 20 years.
The Espionage Act was reinforced by the Sedition Act of the following year, which imposed similarly harsh penalties on anyone found guilty of making false statements that interfered with the prosecution of the war. That included insulting or abusing the U.S. government, the flag, the Constitution, or the military. Freedom of speech was restrained. It further included protesting and agitating against the production of necessary war materials as well as advocating, teaching, or defending any of these acts.
These acts they insisted were intended to target socialists, pacifists, and other anti-war activists during World War I. They were used with a very punishing effect instantly. This became the great Red Scare with people justifying these laws claiming that communists sought to influence and to infiltrate into American society changing the country from within. This was the first Red Scare with the second unfolding during the 1940s and 1950s, associated largely with Senator Joseph McCarthy (1908–1957) who was just manufacturing evidence against people he disliked.
This is when Alexander Mitchell Palmer (1872–1936), assumed the attorney general’s office during the Red Scare, and his right-hand man, J. Edgar Hoover (1895–1972), liberally employed the Espionage and Sedition Acts to persecute left-wing political figures and anyone he just disliked. It would be Hoover who would spy on members of Congress and strike fear in the hearts of everyone on Capital Hill. He had his secret files on everyone even President Kennedy. Abuse of power always follows a grant of power.
One of the most famous activists arrested during this period, labor leader Eugene V. Debs (1855–1926), was sentenced to 10 years in prison for a speech he made in 1918 in Canton, Ohio, criticizing the Espionage Act. Debs had also tried to run for President as the head of the Socialist Party. Debs appealed the decision, and the case eventually reached the U.S. Supreme Court, where the court upheld his conviction. Though Debs’ sentence was commuted in 1921 when the Sedition Act was repealed by Congress, major portions of the Espionage Act remain part of United States law to the present day and are subject to abuse of power as we are witnessing today.
It was April 5th, 1951 when Julius Rosenberg (1918-1953) and his 35-year-old wife Ethel (1915-1953) were sentenced to death using this Espionage Act. Today, everyone concedes that his wife’s crime was simply being married to Julius. The prosecutors charged her thinking it would force him to give up his contacts which he never did most likely because he had none.
A co-defendant of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, Morton Sobell (1917-2018), admitted for the first time that he was a Soviet spy on his deathbed at 91 after serving 30 years in prison but also made it clear that Ethel was innocent. Sobell passed military secrets to the Communists in World War II when the nations were still allies, he told the New York Times. Sobell, who served 18 years for espionage, said Julius did pass secrets but Ethel, executed with her husband in 1953, was guilty of nothing more than being Mrs. Rosenberg.
Under our legal system, the Jury can nullify the conviction using common sense based on their own sense of justice. Our corrupt judges will never instruct the jury that they have that power. The JURY can refuse to follow the corrupt law and acquit a defendant even when the evidence presented seems to point to an incontrovertible verdict of guilty. Personally, I think the Jury should be told that they have the power to nullify a conviction as well as to direct charges and reprimand the prosecutor in such a case for his abuse of power.
Just like Ponus Pilate tried washing his hands after sentencing Christ to death, these prosecutors and judges have so much blood on their hands that it takes a really different kind of person to take pleasure in inflicting pain on others. The injustices of so many people who have been executed under our laws only to be found that they were innocent are appalling and disgusting.
Only an idiot accepts government allegations as fact in any case. The entire problem stems from ABSOLUTE IMMUNITY! The US government cannot be sued, only the agents of the government and judges have bestowed that immunity simply because the king had that who we revolted against. But the courts granted the very same power to the government that sparked the American Revolution. Consequently, those in the Justice Department are not forthcoming about admitting a mistake. I do not believe that a prosecutor should be able to bring charges. There should be a panel set up where every prosecutor presents his case to them and they are the ones who bring an indictment. That would remove personal self-interests.
Edwin Paul Wilson (1928–2012) was a former CIA and U.S. Naval Intelligence officer who was convicted in 1983 of illegally selling weapons to Libya. When one agency caught him, the CIA denied he worked for them since it was their secret operation. Wilson was tried and convicted. His daughter fought to get documents to prove her father worked for the CIA which they denied. What they did to Wilson should give anyone pause why they would work for the government.
You can tell Wilson was innocent because they kept him in solitary confinement – the ultimate torture. That is where most suicides take place. They did that to prevent him from having free communication outside the prison. It was later proven that the United States Department of Justice and the CIA had covered up evidence in the case. Wilson’s convictions were overturned in 2003 and he was freed the following year. Prosecutors KNEW he was innocent, but prosecuted him anyway.
Wilson filed a civil suit against seven former federal prosecutors, two of whom are now federal judges rewarded for wrongful prosecutions, and a past executive director of the CIA. On March 29th, 2007, U.S. District Judge Lee Rosenthal dismissed his case on the grounds that all eight had immunity covering their actions – not that they were innocent or his claims were frivolous. They can kill you, rob you, and even rape your family. NO court will ever take your word over a prosecutor. That is why there is no longer any Justice in America. They read it as “JUST US” to always further their own self-interest.
Harvard law professor, Alan Dershowitz, discusses in “America on Trial” several dozen cases that have indeed shaped the United States, transforming the country and its legal system from the colonial period to the present corrupt system of injustice.
Prosecutors abuse the system to win unjust convictions ALL THE TIME. There is the case of JOSEPH SALVATIwhere the jury awarded $102 million because the prosecutors KNEW they were convicting the wrong person. Anyone working for the government who does this sort of thing should be imprisoned. After all, they violate the civil rights of an individual and remain immune from criminal prosecution.
There is the case of Jack McCullough sentenced to life in prison in 1957 who was finally released in 2016. One Judge, U.S. District Judge Leigh Martin May, ruled that the SEC courts established by Roosevelt are unconstitutional. The government just ignored the ruling.
The Supreme Court committed the worst crime against humanity ever recorded demonstrating its bias. They declared that those who are prosecutors or judges have ABSOLUTEimmunity from being prosecuted for wrongful prosecution even if they know they are abusing their authority or committing a crime because they might be afraid to prosecute someone if they could be prosecuted in return.
The Supreme Court’s most anti-Constitutional decision ever rendered implemented a nationwide policy declaring prosecutors must have absolute immunity for acts committed in their prosecutorial role. This decision has unleashed the most abusive legal system ever on the face of this Earth. The most notorious court in history had been that of Hitler which had a 90% conviction rate. The Supreme Court has stripped every possible human right we have fought for since the dawn of civilization with that decision.
The conviction rate now exceeds 98% in the US federal courts. Lawyers tell you to just plea because you cannot win! Federal Judge Jed Rakof’s review of a book – Why Innocent People Plead Guilty. Judge Rakof wrote in the New York Review of Books, “Over the past few decades, ordinary US citizens have increasingly been denied effective access to their courts.” Nobody pays attention and at least one-third of the people in prison are innocent charged with conspiracy so the government does not have to prove you actually did something, you just intended it somehow. Nobody reforms the judicial system so police just kill people without consequence.
Nobody will hold prosecutors accountable and then most judges are former prosecutors so good luck with pleading your case. There is not a vein of morality in most of these people. Even an honest judge is just overruled by the corrupt courts of appeal. When you stare into the eyes of a prosecutor or most judges, all you see is the coldness of evil stripped of all human emotion. They lose all humanity in order to do the job.
The Supreme Court has unleashed the total destruction of the Constitution upon all of us and there is a growing call to acknowledge and address an epidemic of prosecutorial misconduct in the United States, but nobody will listen. The case wasImbler v. Pachtman and its perverse holding is uncivilized in any democratic state for it is the decision of a totalitarian regime.
Shakespeare’s famous line “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers” referred to the king’s lawyers we call prosecutors today. The question is when will the people stand up and say enough is enough! Thomas Jefferson included in the Declaration of Independence about injustice and how the government protected its agents as they do today: “For protecting them, by a mock Trial from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:”
History repeats because those in power will always act in their self-interest. Nothing has ever changed since Thrasymachus warned Socrates who imposed the death penalty and Plota fled Athens saying he would not allow a second crime against Philosophy.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is set to visit Beijing this weekend. Blinken was originally scheduled to visit China in February, but it was delayed after Chinese spy balloons entered US airspace. Sending Blinken to China is like sending a thief to rob the headquarters of the National Rifle Association. Blinken has repeatedly offended China and gushed over the prospects of war. China does not want war, they repeatedly requested for the US to stay out of its affairs.
The meeting is already off to a bad start here. Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang called Blinken on Tuesday to remind him to “show respect” before he arrives. CNN already reported that Blinken plans to discuss Taiwan and will “advocate strongly” for military communications. These do not align with the main goals of the meeting which is intended to discuss global macroeconomic stability, global security matters, and establishing proper communication channels. China’s military is not going to form an open line of communication with the US military. China does not advocate the war in Ukraine and has repeatedly tried to remain neutral.
“I hope that the U.S. side will take practical actions to implement the important consensus of the meeting between the two heads of state in Bali, move in the same direction as the Chinese side, effectively manage differences, promote exchanges and cooperation, and promote the stabilization of China-US relations,” Qin said, according to the South China Morning Post. This will not happen. If the US wanted to stabilize relations with China, they would send anyone other than Blinken.
The US is fanning the flames of war and is the aggressor in this situation. They continue to antagonize China, hoping that Beijing will make a move either with Russia or Taiwan so that they can jump on the opportunity for war. The neocons are not concerned about our economy, the lives of the people, or maintaining relations with America’s top trading partner. Expect the headlines early next week to read “Relations Between China and the US Further Deteroriate.”
President Joe Biden admitted the truth – the government is claiming your children as their own.
Speaking on his favorite topic, the LGBTQ community, Biden addressed the nation in a disturbing video posted on Twitter that states:
“To the LGBTQI+ Community – the Biden-Harris Administration has your back. These are our kids. These are our neighbors. Not somebody else’s kids; they’re all our kids. And our children are the kite strings that hold our national ambitions aloft. It matters a great deal how we treat everyone in this country. LGBTQ Americans, especially children, you are loved, you are heard, and this administration has your back.”
Hillary Clinton has a famous line that says it takes a village to raise children, and everyone cheered, thinking she meant having a strong community. Now, the Democrats are taking it further than any leader would go other than perhaps Kim Jung-Un. Well, I am not sure that he would even permit childhood castration. The American public schools want to indoctrinate your children from an early age. This is why they are refusing to listen to the parents who are pleading with teachers not to teach their kindergarteners about pronouns and sex. The government under Biden is passing laws permitting children to make life-altering decisions without their parents’ consent. In fact, they are working to punish parents who do not cave to the woke agenda. The government is taking away parental rights entirely.
“They are not your kids,” Gov. Ron DeSantis tweeted in reply. “You are the government. They are NOT your kids,” Elon Musk tweeted in a message that now has over 416K likes. This should concern everyone. Biden’s message was specifically targeting troubled youth. Feel misunderstood by your parents after years of education indoctrination? Turn to the government to be your family.
Sorry, but Biden failed to raise his own kids. STAY AWAY FROM OUR KIDS.

Comrades, dissident voice Tucker Carlson continues broadcasting his rebellious monologues on Twitter. For his latest episode 4, Carlson notes the new American dictatorship. {Direct Rumble Link} – WATCH:
QUESTION: Dear Sir, With regard to your recent blog post – [ https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/politics/word-of-warning-they-cant-put-trump-in-prison-but-they-can-you-for-protesting/ ]… … you included the ECM chart depicting the decline and fall of the United States. You have an encyclopedic understanding of the cyclical rise and fall of empires. Seeing as how the USA presently constitutes a veritable empire in most respects, are you able to comment on the synergy between an empire and its satellite constituents – ie, do the ECMs for the Five Eyes nations synchronize with the United States, or do they diverge? Regards PK
The Five Eyes (FVEY) is an intelligence alliance comprising Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States demonstrates one thing – the rest of the West is not included. Yet 2032 is more than just the culmination of the current 51.6-year wave of the Economic Confidence Model. It is the subsequent set of 309.6 years waves from the peak in the Roman Empire which all historians draw the line in history as the reign of Marcus Aurelius (161-180AD). That was when Marcus sent an ambassador to the Emperor of China.
If you read Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations, you are left with the feeling that there is nothing new. History repeats because human nature itself has never changed and people will always act in their own self-interest no matter what century. All we have ever witnessed through time in the memorial is fake news steeped in opinion rather than fact.
Our model on NYC also showed that it turned decisively down from 2022. NYC will only get worse now going into 2026. The fascinating aspect is that 2022 was a key turning point on so many issues around the world. Trump’s arrest is just throwing the Rule of Law into the garbage bin because the Neocons are scared to death that if he ever regained power, he would strip them of all power.
Even when we look at Russia v Ukraine, that too shifted in 2022. The war is likely to escalate globally by April 2024. The Neocons are desperate and intend to create war involving US troops before the 2024 election. They are counting on the fact that no president has ever lost during time of war. They need their puppet Biden in office and no other.
We see that the last turning point was November 23, 2022. That is when China’s sales of US Treasuries made a new historic low taking out the low of 2010. This will continue to decline as they clearly expect war with the United States going into 2027. By February 2023, the warmonger Neocon Secretary of State Blinken warned China there will be consequences if they aid Russia in the war in Ukraine.
The Neocons have ZERO concern for the US economy or its people. We are secondary to their objectives if we even rank in second place or anywhere in their minds. They could care less about the budget and will print money recklessly to achieve their end goal which is to dominate the world no different than they have claimed China and Russia seek to do. Fools who think inflation will subside make the assumption that we have a normal viable economy. We are living in a midst of a coup that has seized full control of the United States and they have whipped Congress into a war frenzy that is against the people and our own interests.
All their plans and Schwab’s WEF to create this authoritarian world where democracy does not exist on any level as Schwab has always made clear, they want to end our right to even vote. When we elected Trump, democracy suddenly became “populism” which was evil because it was targeted at them and their endless wars with endless corruption.
Populism was then the #1 crisis because they could lose power. They had to stop Trump and now they are actually seeking to imprison him for life where he will no doubt commit suicide like Jeffrey Epstein.
This is the culmination of the Sixth Wave also on the 309.6 Year Cycle. This is the complete collapse of our current form of Republican Government. They know they are losing power. They can kill Trump, but they cannot extinguish human nature. More and more people are awakening. Schwab’s idea of ushering in his version of the Great Reset which I believe he has taken from our 2032 forecast, is his desperate attempt to move to the next stage from Socialism to Authoritarianism. Communism collapsed because it was against human nature. So will this entire scheme to strip us of all our rights and in the end, we will restore our freedom and rid ourselves of these types of people.
If someone like Lindsey Grahm robbed a 711 and took pleasure in killing customers, you would call him a vicious psychopath. What is the difference to take pleasure in killing anyone?

It was bound to happen anytime a significant brand leader loses 25% of its total market share. According to data provided to Fox News, Budweiser Light beer lost its #1 ranking in the U.S. in the month of May as the critical days of summer sales begin.
This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise given the negative brand image now created for the product. Factually, the only thing that can reverse the trend for the product is time and diminished memory. As consumers associate the brand with a lifestyle, the use of the product will continue to drop. Holding a Bud Light beverage right now is akin to identifying yourself as a transfemme, or wearing pink pants.
(Fox News) – Bud Light lost its top spot in the U.S. beer market last month, as the brand’s sales sagged following a conservative uproar over its partnership with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
Constellation Brands’ Modelo led the market as it nabbed 8.4% of beer sales from retail stores in the four weeks that ended June 3, according to NielsenIQ data from consulting firm Bump Williams. Bud Light trailed with a 7.3% share.
Bud Light sales fell 24.6% in the period year over year, while Modelo sales jumped 10.2%, the data shows.
Still, the Anheuser-Busch InBev brand Bud Light leads U.S. beer sales so far this year, according to Bump Williams.
The hit to AB InBev’s business marks one of the few times in recent years that online backlash has led to a notable and sustained slump for a major brand. The company’s shares have dropped nearly 15% since the start of April, when Mulvaney posted a video of a personalized Bud Light can, which sparked anti-LGBTQ+ outrage.
In response to the uproar, the company appeared to neither defend the promotion with Mulvaney — a hesitance that angered some supporters of trans rights — nor appease the conservatives who opposed the marketing.
“We never intended to be part of a discussion that divides people. We are in the business of bringing people together over a beer,” Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth said in a statement in April. (read more)
That last statement is particularly laughable from Anheuser-Busch, as if they were victims of something external that was forced upon them.
Anheuser-Busch made a marketing decision with multiple layers of corporate approval. Apparently, no one was in the room to say it might not be a good idea to position their #1 product with a gender fluid promotional effort. Alas, they went full-throated into the foray and are now paying the price.
The people have spoken with their dollars, and companies are now less likely to go woke. The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) pushes the CEI (Corporate Equality Index), a company’s social woke credit score. The Open Society Foundation, operated by the Soros family, funds the HRC. The ESG promotes a company’s green social credit score, promoted by BlackRock and the World Economic Forum. Companies were 31% less likely to mention these absurd social scores during earnings calls this quarter, marking the steepest annual drop and the fifth consecutive quarter of declines.
Financial research platform AlphaSense polled companies from April 1 to June 5 to see where they stood. “The easiest thing to do is just to stay out of the conversation and emphasize other facets of business that are going to be perceived as less controversial and more core to the traditional metrics of the business,” said Jason Jay, senior lecturer of sustainability at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This is the approach Berkshire Hathaway has taken under the lead of Warren Buffett, who refuses to answer these asinine surveys.
The National Center for Public Policy Research, a conservative thinktank, states that companies are discarding their fiduciary responsibilities to shareholders by taking up social issues. They also claim that these companies are discriminating against those who do not share these far-left beliefs.
I reported that the criteria in the 2023 Corporate Equality Index toolkit required companies to promote really went to the extreme, such as providing employees’ children with gender-affirming care like castration. The CEI makes it impossible for religious or conservative organizations to adhere to their standards.
While companies are less likely to mention these social credit scores, the ESG will be harder to dismiss as there has not been such a dramatic backlash. In comparison, woke companies such as Target experienced their longest losing streak in half a decade and lost $10 billion in a matter of 10 days. Anheuser-Busch was valued at $134.55 billion before its trans scandal. At the time of this writing, the company is now worth $107.44 million, and BudLight is no longer America’s leading beer. The “go woke, go broke” slogan holds weight. If you bring politics or religion into the boardroom, you’re bound to offend at least half of the people and lose half of your customers.
The vilification of Putin has been extremely successful, so much so that no one is listening to his words. The Russian leader recently spoke of conflict resolution. That is not something a warmonger hellbent on conquering nations would discuss. And yet, Putin seems to be the only world leader discussing the potential of resolving the conflict in Ukraine without escalation.
“We sincerely tried to reach an agreement [with Ukraine]. It was difficult to negotiate some kind of patchwork of southeastern Ukraine with the rest of the country, but we tried in good faith,” Putin told military correspondents according to Sputnik news. He also reiterated that their intent regarding Ukraine has not changed. He is not attempting to resurrect the USSR or threaten other nations. Putin only wants the historically Russian territories in Ukraine. Why are we starting a world war over this wish that does not involve other nations?
“What is happening there [in Ukraine] now will certainly never suit us, historically speaking. When the negotiations were held, including in Istanbul, we constantly raised this issue, and they in turn told us: ‘But there is nothing neo-Nazi about us, what do you want from us?’ [Russia wants] at least some relative legislative restrictions. In general, we also agreed on this during the round of negotiations before our troops were withdrawn from Kiev and after they threw all our agreements out of the window,” Putin said. Every attempt at conflict resolution was denied by the neocons. The very agreement that could have prevented Russia from entering Ukraine in the first place was based on a lie.
“We wanted and we still want to have the best relations with all our neighbors after the collapse of the Soviet Union. And we do so, we have come to terms with… Well, that’s what’s happened. We have to live with it,” Putin plainly stated.
It is amazing how the media portrays him as a crazed man intent on destroying the world. I discuss the propaganda techniques used at length in my new book, “The Plot to Seize Russia.” Listen to his words because is intentions are clear. He has no desire to feud with the West. ” If they really want today’s conflict to end through negotiations, they only need to make one decision – to stop the supply of weapons and equipment. That’s it,” Putin declared. The problem is that they do not want to resolve the conflict by any means other than war. Russia clearly does not want war and has been asking the world to listen to their pleas for peace.
Gallup’s annual Values and Beliefs survey indicates that social conservatism has reached a 10-year high. The intense woke narrative that defies all logic has caused the pendulum to swing in the other direction. Around 38% of all respondents said they are “very conservative” on social issues compared to 33% in 2022 and 30% in 2021. Those identifying as very socially liberal have declined in the past two years to 29%, while moderates represent 31%. The woke agenda has permitted the media, politicians, and classrooms over this time, and Americans are not in agreement.
Republicans are leaning more to the right, with 74% now identifying as very socially conservative compared to 60% in 2021. Independents presented a slight increase year-on-year from 24% to 29%. Younger adults are more likely to identify as socially conservative on issues now compared to prior years, with a six percentage point uptick among the 18 to 29-year-old group over the past two years.
Americans are also more likely to favor economically conservative policies, with 44% saying they are conservative or very conservative and 33% saying their views are moderate. Those identifying as conservative economically averaged 40% from 2020 to 2022, but that figure is now 46%, the highest since 2012. Notably, the poll was distributed during the debt ceiling debate.
While Democrats are still less likely to lean fiscally conservative, there is a shift away from far-left ideologies that have become just absurd. Socially conservative a few years ago did not include pronouns, hundreds of genders, trans children, or sex education in elementary schools. It is refreshing that the masses are not blindly caving to this woke agenda of a genderless society where everyone in the wealthiest nation in the world identifies as a victim.
