QUESTION: You said that the US was going to invade Iran after Iraq. Was that classified? I never heard of that. You also said that the Neocons pulled off a coup and seized control of American foreign policy, and the press prints their narrative. I respect your sources, which appear to be remarkable. Lira was the first time you identified any source. Is this the way it operates behind the curtain? What drives you? Or perhaps what changed you?
FK
ANSWER: I cannot reveal sources, or I won’t have any afterward. I do not make money from this blog, and I do not solicit donations or accept advertising. I have ZERO personal stock accounts because I cannot have the slightest conflict of interest because I have to comply with laws worldwide – not just in the ISA. My incentive is to try to leave behind a better future for my grandkids, and if Scotty wants to bean me up, I do not give a shit. When the government tortures you and tries to kill you, something happens. I wrote about that when Trump was shot. You emerge, losing all fear of death. People do not understand. Trump now realizes he is here for a purpose and is going full steam ahead. He now knows the real Deep State as I do.
He is hitting the Cntrl-Alt-Delete and is rebooting the USA, which is exposing the corruption and is setting the stage for the redesign of government in 2032. He is part of this cycle, too, whether he understands that or not. People ask me all the time why I am not bitter about what they did to me. I was endowed with the strength to endure. That was my divine gift, like the gifts from the gods to Perseius. What they did to me opened my eyes for growing up with lawyers always discussing the Constitution, I thought our legal system was fair. When the judge threw my lawyer, Richard Altman, out, his last words to me were: “You should have run.” He added they would have had to put on a real case to get me back had I gone to London.
My case was covering up the first Neocon regime change they tried to get me to fund with $10 billion, and I refused. This was the start of the Neocon Coup of American Foreign Policy. None of my clients filed any complaint against me. This was all started by the bank, which, in the end, pleaded guilty and returned all the money they stole with a deal of no fine and no prison time for the bakers, as usual in NYC. The banks walk of water in NYC. As a lawyer told me why they are never prosecuted, “You don’t shit where you eat!” What I experienced changed me. I saw the beast from the inside out. The legal system is not worth saving.
Judge Lawrence M. McKenna was trying to protect me. So, the DOJ ordered the Chief Judge to switch my case to a pro-government former prosecutor, John F. Kennan. Not even Trump could have his case removed to a different judge in secret. Here is the docket with all of these entries sealed from my view and the world.
They illegally closed the courtroom and threw out the Associated Press, altering the transcripts to hide that. The only evidence I had was their press story. This, I believe, was all to cover up the attempted regime change of Russia blackmailing Yeltsin, which is why Yeltsin turned to Putin and said, “Protect Russia.” The Neocons are relentless. They are determined to conquer Russia. This is why they were all supporting Kamala.
What has been going on with Ukraine is the Neocons have taken over the press, and all they do is spin the story of how Russia is weak and that we can take them in just 3 days. It has been the Neocon Adam Kinzinger, who Pelosi picked to be on the January 6th Committee, was trying to prevent Trump from running again because they knew he would pull the rug out from under them. Biden gave him a pardon along with the other Neocon, Liz Cheney, whose father endorsed Kamala.
I was asked to be part of that administration if I would take the position of Chief Economic adviser in the White House, and I declined. Bush never picked anyone. They put in Cheney, and he launched the war to conquer 7 countries – Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Sudan, Libya, and Somalia. He wanted to dominate every state that had been loyal to Russia.
Trump’s first term, they stuffed his cabinet with Deep State Neocons. That is why Trump picked his cabinet before he got to Washington, and they are qualified people not beholding to the Deep State. Today, everything you have heard about Ukraine is total propaganda by the Neocons to justify war to now conquer Russia. Trump knows what I know. This is the real war for the heart and soul of the United States, and I am not exaggerating. So many fools believe the bullshit they spin about Trump and never as WHY?
When I said 100,000 Ukrainians were killed in the first few months of Zelensky’s war on Russia, I got emails from brainwashed people claiming I was spreading Russian disinformation. That info came directly from Ukraine, and when Ursula gave that number, Zelensky made her take it out and claimed that it was “classified” because he was trying to pretend Ukraine was winning with no casualties. In every government, there are the obedient, brainwashed morons who just repeat what the government and the press tell them without thinking about anything. Sometimes, I have come up with specific information that even central banks would like to share, but they are restricted in their comments. This is the way it goes.
I am not the only one who sees through the corruption and lies. Former General Wesley Clark, who is about five years older than me, was the Supreme Allied Commander Europe of NATO from 1997 to 2000. Listen to his speech on the Neocon Coup that has taken over the United States’ foreign policy since 1999. That is when they charged me, Sepetember 13th, 1999, because I would not play ball. This was the start of the Neocon Coup that was never directed by Congress or even any president.
On January 30th, 1999, NATO Launched Operation Allied Force Against Serbia. This NATO operation marked a significant military intervention in the Kosovo War, marking a significant rise in Neocon power. This was NATO’s first offensive use of force and was NOT sanctioned by the United Nations Security Council. This was in violation of international law and was politically a usurpation of virtual dictatorial power by an unelected organization. They used the false claim that it was for humanitarian concerns, but it was a strategic calculation to expand their powerbase against Russia.
Hence, the Kosovo War presented a political opportunity for NATO to redefine its role in the post-Cold War era since it was created to protect Europe from Khruschev’s threats to conquer Europe and defeat capitalism. With the dissolution of the Soviet Union, NATO’s original purpose of defending Western Europe against Soviet aggression had evaporated. For fear of dissolution, NATO needed to regain its status and power and expand it.

President Donald Trump and French President Macron hold a joint press availability together with their diplomatic counterparts in the oval office.
President Trump and Macron took questions from the U.S. and European media. Interestingly, you can see how important it is for Macron to hear how the USA will be part of a peacekeeping effort. WATCH:

Why does this need to be broadcast? Why is it important to the people who pull the strings on Ukraine, for there to be public visibility on a meeting of G7 leaders discussing Ukraine? Why do they need the optics?
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky personally asked President Trump for continued American support during a cross-ocean G7 meeting held Monday — the third anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Zelensky — flanked by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other world leaders who made their way to Kyiv to mark the occasion — made his case to Trump on why the US should work to protect Ukraine’s interests amid ongoing tension with the president.
President Trump joined the meeting from Washington, where he was flanked by Vice President JD Vance and French President Emmanuel Macron. WATCH:
Vladimir Putin has a weapon the “west” cannot defend against. It’s not part of his physical military armament, it’s far more powerful. Putin has the truth as a weapon.
The western group must pretend they didn’t carry out a color revolution in Ukraine. They must also pretend they didn’t install Volodymyr Zelenskyy and pretend there was no civil war happening inside Ukraine for a decade. Lastly, the western group must pretend they didn’t try to provoke Vladimir Putin with expansions of NATO and an intentional breaking of the Minsk accords. There are other pretenses that must be maintained, but these are the top ones.
Into this grand game of pretenses comes President Donald Trump, not exactly the best pretender (by choice) and Vladimir Putin not only knows this, but he also respects this Trump attribute of honesty in problem solving.
Keep in mind, President Putin watched how President Trump dealt with the “North Korea threat” problem that was left to him by President Obama. Putin watched how Trump negotiated an exit to escalating conflict by honesty confronting China, the true hand on the puppet strings of the DPRK.
Putin saw in that North Korea geopolitical dynamic that President Trump dealt with Kim Jong-un with a brutally honest strategy that encompassed the influence of China. While Putin is more allied currently with China, he knows President Trump cuts through the gordian knot woven by western interventionists. Trump cuts through the gordian knot with honest and pragmatic policy.
As a result of this dynamic, everyone around President Trump, including the National Security Council, his National Security Advisor (Waltz), his CIA Director (Ratcliffe), and his State Dept Secretary (Rubio), all have to maintain the “western” pretenses that were/are cemented by the people and silos they replace.
The larger American government, sans President Trump, have to maintain all the aforementioned pretenses, in part because the Intelligence Community and the USA media support it, and in part because it would weaken the USA on the global stage to ever make honest admissions about our control of Ukraine. And yes, that pretending dynamic includes Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg who President Trump appointed as special envoy for Russia and Ukraine.
Vladimir Putin’s strongest weapon is the truth. Vladimir Putin also knows the auto-setting on President Trump’s psyche of problem solving, ie ‘optimal solutions’, is also centered on truth.
The proverbial $64,000 question: How does truthful President Trump deal with truthful President Putin, while all around the office of the White House are people who only know how to maintain pretenses?
That my friends, is going to be a very interesting dynamic to watch.
One way President Trump could gain back the power of not pretending is to: (1) request an immediate ceasefire; then (2) tell the CIA (Ratcliffe) to immediately withdraw all CIA operatives from Ukraine; then (3) tell Secretary Marco Rubio to pull all USAID operatives out of Ukraine; then (4) tell Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy he must hold a national election within 60 days.
If the U.S and NATO pull all of the control agents out of Ukraine and hold an election, the result will highlight the will of the Ukranian people to retain Volodymyr Zelenskyy. If Zelenskyy wins, then he is in a stronger position. If he loses, then he was never strong to begin with, and he’s the wrong person to be negotiating with.
Calling for an election in Ukraine is a radical approach because I think we all know what the outcome would be. Then again, that’s the problem with pretending, when you stop you have to accept the result.

I want Pam Bondi, Kash Patel and Dan Bongino to be successful. However, if I am to understand the excitement at the Bondi, Patel, Bongino positions, then I must accept their understanding of the corruption within the silos they now lead. I do not understand, nor accept that premise.
The modern FBI is the police agency of a weaponized U.S government, with a direct and purposeful mandate to keep the American people under control through strict surveillance and a violent police state.
Understand and accept this with great seriousness, there are no honorable “rank and file” inside this organization.
Every member of the FBI is a participant in the weaponization of power and government. The members are jackboots recruited from ideological college campuses for exactly the purpose of supporting a Stasi-like police state.
Through the past several years, we have discovered how the FBI worked inside Twitter, Facebook and social media to control information, remove content and manipulate opinion on behalf of the U.S. government – all activity political.
We have also learned the FBI took active measures to suppress information about the Hunter Biden laptop and control any negative consequences for the Biden regime – again, political. These are not disputed realities.
The U.S. Dept of Justice and FBI are now political institutions that have abandoned their originating mission in order to become the domestic equivalent of the Soviet-era FSB. Their joint targeting mechanisms have been redesigned to support the interests of corrupt DC politicians, specifically the interests of Democrats.
It was in June 2022, when Senator Chuck Grassley sent a letter [pdf HERE] to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Chris Wray, notifying them of whistleblower allegations from within the FBI that senior leadership in both Main Justice and FBI are involved in a coordinated effort to cover up criminal activity related to Hunter Biden.
The whistleblower allegations, in combination with the documented history of DOJ and FBI misconduct, culminate in Senator Grassley stating:
“If these allegations are true and accurate, the Justice Department and FBI are – and have been – institutionally corrupted to their very core to the point in which the United States Congress and the American people will have no confidence in the equal application of the law. Attorney General Garland and Director Wray, simply put, based on the allegations that I’ve received from numerous whistleblowers, you have systemic and existential problems within your agencies.” (LINK)
Grassley was admitting what has been visible for years.
Senator Grassley is telling the corrupt DOJ-FBI leadership that people in the organizations are outlining the detailed behavior of their corrupt leadership. However, with zero oversight involved, and with Democrats in charge of all committees that would be responsible for such oversight, and with institutional media in alignment and agreement with the corrupt institutional intents of the DOJ/FBI, the frustrating question becomes, “and“?
I mean, who are we kidding? If Republicans were in charge of the Senate Judiciary, Reform/Oversight, or Intelligence committees, do we really believe that anything would be different? Before responding to that cynicism, remind yourself, they were for four years, January 2015 through January 2019, Republicans in charge of oversight.
It was exactly when Republicans were in charge of Main Justice and FBI oversight that Main Justice and FBI were targeting political candidate Donald Trump.
In July 2021, the DOJ OIG produced an absolutely damning Inspector General investigation of FBI conduct in the rape and sexual assault of U.S. Gymnasts, revealing how FBI agents facilitated Nassar’s sex crimes by taking no action despite numerous witness statements to them.
Worse yet, the FBI never reported the sexual assaults to local law enforcement… and to top it off, the rank and vile FBI agents lied during the investigation of their conduct, and the DOJ under AG Bill Barr, and now under AG Merrick Garland, refused to prosecute the FBI liars.
The entire IG report [Must Read pdf Here] reveals layer-upon-layer of FBI wrongdoing, misconduct and false statements in an effort to cover up their activity when the internal investigation of their conduct began. This report is a total condemnation of the FBI rank and file. It really is quite stunning.
BACKGROUND on FBI – As we discovered in January of 2023, the FBI was fully aware of the terrorist who was planning to shoot the synagogue in Colleyville, Texas, and yet they did nothing.
The FBI knowledge of the shooter, Malik Faisal Akram, who was known as Faisal Akram, was confirmed by The Daily Mail. Akram ranted, prior to his travel to the U.S, that he wished he had died in the 9/11 terror attacks. He was a regular visitor to Pakistan, and reportedly a member of the Tablighi Jamaat group set up to ‘purify’ Islam. To say the U.S. intelligence system knew Faisal Akram would be an understatement.
The FBI was also fully aware of the Boston Marathon bombers, the Tsarnaev brothers, before they executed their plot. The FBI took no action. The Russian police twice warned the FBI that the Tsarnaev brothers were going to carry out a domestic terrorist attack on the USA, the FBI did nothing.
The FBI knew in advance of the Pulse Nightclub shooter (Omar Mateen) and were tipped off by the local sheriff. The FBI knew in advance of the San Bernardino Terrorists (Tashfeen Malik). The FBI knew in advance of the Boston Marathon Bombers (the Tsarnaev brothers) tipped off by Russians. The FBI knew in advance of the Parkland High School shooter (Nikolas Cruz). The FBI knew in advance of the Fort Hood shooter (Nidal Hasan), and the FBI knew in advance of Colorado grocery store shooter Ahmad al-Aliwi Alissa. The FBI took no action.
The case of the first recorded ISIS attack on U.S. soil was in Garland, Texas in 2015.
The FBI not only knew the shooters (Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi) in advance, BUT the FBI ALSO took the shooters to the venue and were standing only a few yards away when Simpson and Soofi opened fire. Yes, you read that correctly – the FBI took the terrorists to the event and then watched it unfold. “An FBI trainer suggested in an interview with “60 Minutes” that, had the attack been bigger, the agency’s numerous ties to the shooter would have led to a congressional investigation.”
Remember, shortly before the 2018 mid-term election, when Ceasar Syoc – a man living in his van – was caught sending “energetic material that can become combustible when subjected to heat or friction”, or what FBI Director Christopher Wray called “not hoax devices”?
Remember how sketchy everything about that was, including the child-like perpetrator telling a judge later that he was trying to walk back his guilty plea, because he was tricked into signing a confession for a crime he did not create.
Or more recently, the goofball plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer that involved 18 suspects, twelve of them actually working for the FBI as the plot was hatched? And we cannot forget the January 6th. DC protest turned insurrection effort, which is clearly looking like an FBI inspired and coordinated effort; and unlike Syoc, despite the numerous CCTV cameras and resources in the area, they cannot find who placed the pipe-bombs?
Have we forgotten the Atlanta “Olympic Park Bombing”, and the FBI intentionally setting up transparently innocent, Richard Jewel?
What about the FBI failing to investigate the assassination of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens in Benghazi. Did we forget when Robert Mueller’s FBI waited 19 days after the Benghazi attack before showing up at the compound?…. Journalists from the USA were walking around the compound after 48 hours, but it took the FBI another two weeks before the first investigator arrived…. All evidence long destroyed.
Then, there’s the entirety of the FBI conduct in “Spygate”, the demonstrably evident FBI operation to conduct political surveillance against Donald Trump using their investigative authorities; and the downstream consequences of a massive institutional effort to cover up one of the biggest justice department scandals in the history of our nation. The original effort against Donald Trump used massive resources from the DOJ and FBI. Heck, the coverup operation using the Mueller/Weissmann special counsel used more than 50 investigative FBI agents alone.
And of course, the FBI still had 13 extra agents available to rush to a NASCAR racetrack to investigate a garage door pull-down rope that might have been perceived as a noose; but the serial rape of hundreds of teenage girls, eh, not-so-much effort – even when they are standing in front of the FBI begging for help.
[At this point, I am increasingly convinced by evidence there are elements within the FBI that are enablers involved in sex trafficking, human smuggling, abduction, counterfeiting and money laundering as part of their operational mission.]
The FBI didn’t make a mistake or drop the proverbial ball in the Olympic gymnast case, they intentionally and specifically maintained the sexual exploitation of teenage girls by doing absolutely nothing with the complaints they received. This is not misconduct, this is purposeful.
Then, as if to apply salt to the open wound of severe FBI politicization, what did the FBI do with the Hunter Biden laptop?
More recently, the FBI executed a search warrant on the home and office of Project Veritas and the founder James O’Keefe. While the raid was taking place, a New York Times reporter called O’Keefe to ask him about his thoughts on getting raided. The same New York Times journalist, a few days later, then begins writing about the confidential attorney-client privileged information illegally retrieved then leaked by the FBI during their raid.
♦My point is this…
What the Federal Security Service (FSB) is to the internal security of the Russian state, so too is the FBI in performing the same function for the U.S. federal government.
The FBI is a U.S. version of the Russian “State Police”; and the FBI is deployed -almost exclusively- to attack domestic enemies of those who control government, while they protect the interests of the U.S. Fourth Branch of Government. That is the clear and accurate domestic prism to contextualize their perceived mission: “domestic violent extremists pose the greatest threat” to their objective.
Put another way, “We The People”, who fight against government abuse and usurpation, are the FBI’s actual and literal enemy.
Let me be very clear with another brutally obvious example. Antifa could not exist as an organization, capable to organize and carry out violent attacks against their targets, without the full support of the FBI. If the FBI wanted to arrest members of Antifa, who are actually conducting violence, they could do it easily – with little effort.
It is the absence of any action, by the FBI toward Antifa, that tells us the FBI is enabling that violent extremist behavior to continue. Once you accept that transparent point of truth, then you realize the FBI definition of domestic violent extremism is something else entirely.
The FBI is not a law enforcement or investigative division of the U.S. Department of Justice. The FBI is a political weapon of a larger institution that is now focused almost entirely toward supporting a radical communist agenda to destroy civil society in the United States.
The FBI set up the operation in Michigan to give the illusion that domestic threats were attempting to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer, everything about the events were an FBI construct. The same thing with the January 6th events in Washington DC and the pipe bombs. These are domestic FBI operations. Think about the precarious nature of what this type of activity indicates.
The current mission of the FBI appears to be preserving and protecting institutional power by protecting the administration of Joe Biden.
Anyone who continues to push this insufferable and fraudulent “honorable FBI rank and file talking point”, is, at this point in history, willfully and purposefully operating to deceive the American people on behalf of government interests who are intent on destroying us.
It is not a difference of opinion any longer. Personally, I have lost the ability to sit comfortably or intellectually with anyone who pushes or accepts the ‘mistakes are made’ nonsense. The FBI is not making mistakes, they are doing well what is important to them.
To me, it comes down to a simple matter of accepting what is continually staring us in the face.
Additionally, as we watched the outcome of the Michael Sussmann trial, we should never lose sight of the fact that 40 FBI agents were involved in the Mueller-Weissmann probe to investigate the fraudulent construct created by Hillary Clinton and crew. 40 agents? And, according to the outcome of the Sussmann trial, the FBI knew it was all a ruse.
This is why and how the Fourth Branch of U.S. Government is now the superseding apparatus above all other branches. {GO DEEP} This is why and how Barack Obama, John Brennan and Eric Holder created it, cemented it, and made it impervious to any effort to remove it.
Remember when Henry Cuellar was critical of the Biden administration open border policies that were hurting his Texas district? Less than a month after going public with his criticisms, the FBI raids on his home and office began. The same FBI that raided the home of James O’Keefe while coordinating their search with the New York Times.
The Fourth Branch of Government is corrupt; heck, the J6 committee was defending the corrupt FBI, participating with the corrupt FBI, selling a joint J6 operation that involved the FBI. The corrupt media have aligned with the corrupt FBI, and the justice institutions in/around this legal framework are self-aware and fully autonomous.
As the Twitter files show, the DOJ and FBI, through the authority of DHS, now have the ability to monitor every single aspect of every life that might seek to challenge or destroy the corrupt system.
In essence, Skynet -the ultimate end game of political surveillance and targeting outlined by Edward Snowden- has been activated. We the People are the enemy of the state.
Jackboots are very real, and they are wearing FBI logos on their shirts.

CBSs Margaret Brennan is shocked, flummoxed, stunned and perplexed at the amount of time President Trump’s personal envoy Steve Witkoff spent in trust building conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
This CBS interview comes on the heels of reporting about Volodymyr Zelenskyy losing his cool and angrily shouting at Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and provides quite a contrast. Envoy Steve Witkoff patiently outlines the framework for his respectful discussions with Vladimir Putin.
CBS is really concerned about the details of these meetings. The possibility of peace negotiations, the looming likelihood of a ceasefire and the status of the sanctions ending are all of great concern. Watch and you will see what I mean. WATCH (prompted):
[Transcript of the Russia Discussion] – MARGARET BRENNAN: I want to also ask you about Russia. You are a very trusted advisor to President Trump, and he sent you to speak face to face with Vladimir Putin. Fox reported you sat with Putin for three and a half hours. You said that you spent a lot of time talking, developing a friendship and a relationship with Putin, and that’s how you helped bring this U.S. Citizen Mark Fogel, home. Can you take us inside that room? Did you have a translator? Did you have a note taker? Were you talking in English? What happened?
STEVE WITKOFF: There was a translator. In fact, there were two translators. And I- to me, the assignment was trust building and speaking behalf- on behalf of my boss, the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. And I had no expectation as to how long the meeting was going to last. I was intent on carrying a message from the President to President Putin. I had been advised that the President- that President Putin had something for me to transmit back to the President. And the meeting ended, I looked at my watch, and it was close to three and a half hours that we were in there and hopefully that that suggests that a lot of good things got accomplished. I think that President Trump believes- and I believe because he believes it, that trust building begins with good, proper communication. And we had really good- we just had a great discussion being President Putin, and now it will be up to President Putin and President Trump to work something out. And I think they’re going to be successful.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Did you have an intelligence officer or anyone else with you? That’s an extraordinary amount of face time with Putin.
STEVE WITKOFF: I had- it was just me.
MARGARET BRENNAN: It was just you. The head of Russia’s sovereign wealth fund- I know you know him- Kirill Dmitriev, told Reuters that afterward they expect a number of American companies to return to Russia this year. Is he right to expect that? Did you discuss lifting U.S. sanctions off of Russia?
STEVE WITKOFF: We did not have that specific discussion at- at the meeting you’re referring to. But, I think that- that obviously there would be an expectation that if we get to a peace deal, that you would be able to have American companies come back and do business there. And I think that everybody would believe that that would be a positive good thing to happen.
MARGARET BRENNAN: After the end to the war and concessions were made by Russia?
STEVE WITKOFF: Well, that’s what everybody wants–
MARGARET BRENNAN: –Okay.
STEVE WITKOFF: What everybody wants- the beg- the beginning of that Margaret is- would be a- would be a temporary ceasefire. But, the long term goal would be an end to this- that we’ve had a- you know, close to a million and a half deaths. And so- you know, President Trump, the- his- his agenda, is to end this carnage. It just didn’t belong to- it didn’t need to happen, and it doesn’t need to continue- not, you know, another day. So we’re on it at his direction. And I think there is- you’re going to see some- some real positive developments in the near term future.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, thank you for joining us. We’ll be back in a moment with a lot more “Face the Nation.” Stay with us.
