Caitlin Johnstone: How Julian Assange Exposed the Fraudulence of Mainstream Media | The Ghion Journal

How Julian Assange Exposed the Fraudulence
of Mainstream Media

By Caitlin Johnstone on August 3, 2018

: Fight Ignorance with Knowledge::

As attempts to evict Julian Assange from the Ecuadorian embassy in London get more and more aggressive, we are seeing a proportionate increase in the establishment smear campaign against him and against WikiLeaks. This is not a coincidence.


The planned campaign to remove Assange from political asylum and the greatly escalated smear campaign to destroy public support for Assange are both occurring at the same time that Assange has been cut off from the world without internet, phone calls or visitors, completely unable to defend himself from the smear campaign. This, also, is not a coincidence.


The ability to control the narrative about what is going on in the world is of unparalleled importance to the plutocrats who use governments as tools to advance their agendas. The agenda to make an example of a leak publisher with a massive platform who has repeatedly exposed the corruption of the establishment upon which western plutocrats have built their empires will require continuous narrative spin, since the precedent set by prosecuting a journalist for publishing authentic documents would arguably constitute a greater leap in the direction of Orwellian dystopia than the Patriot Act.

Among the latest components of this campaign has been a viral dump of Twitter DMs being promoted as a hot news item by outlets like Motherboard, The Hill, Forbes and Think Progress and across #Resistance Twitter. The fact that the juicy bits from those DMs had already been published months ago by The Intercept, and the fact that the smears and spin we’re seeing reruns of today were long ago ripped to shreds in journalist Suzie Dawson’s epic essay “Being Julian Assange” after the Intercept publication, has not dampened the orgiastic frenzy with which this non-story is being bandied about by establishment loyalists and defenders of power as evidence of Assange’s nefariousness.


This is entirely illegitimate. It is not legitimate to make claims about someone who has been deliberately deprived of the ability to defend himself. It is not legitimate to spin a narrative about someone whose ability to participate in that narrative has been deliberately cut off. You don’t get to silence a man and then legitimately take over the public narrative about him. That is not a valid thing to do.


But that of course is the idea. By cutting Assange off from internet access, phone calls and visitors, he has been deprived of the ability to give his side of the story in another interview with Fox News, for example, or in tweets to his millions of followers, thus making his side of the story mainstream knowledge. Every voice has been shoved off the stage but that of the political and media establishment which just so happens to be owned and operated by the same powerful oligarchs who want Assange silenced and prosecuted for challenging their rule. This is not a coincidence.

I have said it before and I will say it again: whoever controls the narrative controls the world. If you can control the stories that the public are telling themselves about what’s going on in the world, you control the public itself. So many of the plutocratic establishment’s most aggressive spin campaigns recently have been about securing narrative control in a new media environment with unprecedented public internet access, from constant warnings about “fake news” and “conspiracy theories”, to fearmongering about “Russian bots” and “Russian propaganda”, to promoting and legitimizing the persecution of Julian Assange and WikiLeaks. The empire hates Assange because he punches holes in their ability to control the narrative, and thus control the public, and they have silenced him to deprive him of the ability to control his own narrative about himself. Click To Tweet


Every claim made about Assange since his silencing in late March of this year can therefore be safely dismissed by the public on general principles. As long as they are rigging the debate in their favor, the debate is invalid. Literally any attack on or criticism of Assange being promoted in public discourse can legitimately be dismissed with “Assange has been deprived of his ability to defend himself from that accusation. As long as he is cut off from the world, that’s an invalid accusation to make.”


Feel free to say this to every blue-checkmarked establishment crony on social media who is bravely kicking Assange while his hands and feet are tied behind his back. Their smear campaign is intrinsically invalid, and they should be told so at every opportunity.

When you choose to cooperate for the benefit of all
there are NO losers!

Saul Audio Blog for Wednesday June 13th

In many parts of the world humanity is presently in a state of turmoil as all the buried or denied issues that people have been avoiding dealing with for eons arise to be dealt with NOW!  All know, deep within themselves, below their level of conscious awareness, that Love is their nature and that they have mostly hidden that divine Truth from themselves as they have played the game of separation from Source, and lived lives that are basically infantile – the me, me, me, syndrome.


Awareness has been growing slowly over the last few hundred years, basically since the Reformation in the 16^th century, that inhuman behavior can never be justified, and in the late 19^th century the Hague and the Geneva Conventions established basic rules for treating people humanely in wartime.  Slavery had been made illegal a few years earlier.  After that, over time, other inhuman behaviors were made unlawful.  However, it has taken a long time – in human terms – for these rules and conventions to become effective, and in many parts of the world they are still being ignored.


Nevertheless, much progress has been made recently in the efforts to establish human rights for all as awareness of the unnecessary suffering occurring worldwide has grown.  As education for all became the norm people were encouraged to work with and develop their innate intelligence so that they could think for themselves instead of relying on authorities whose agendas were mainly self-serving and corrupt.  As a result of this general intellectual arousal compassion has also grown for those who live in unconscionable misery in many places.



This growth in compassion and concern for one another is part of humanity’s awakening process, and it has been accelerating rapidly during the last thirty or forty years.  Major change starts at the lowest levels of society where the greatest suffering occurs and moves upwards.  It never starts at the top, because those at the top tend to look after themselves very well.  However, when pressure is put on them by the many, those powerful and influential ones realize that it is very much in their own best interests to become involved in improving the lot of the many who are far less fortunate than they are.


Compassion is becoming widespread and is helping to lead humanity away from conflict and toward non violent forms of communication and discussion in order to resolve issues that have until very recently inevitably led to conflict.  The ineffectiveness of conflict in resolving disagreements is now recognized by most.


However, many of those in positions of power and authority believe that conflict makes them look strong and is good for their public image.  They think that leaders show that they are true leaders by engaging in conflict instead of seeking harmonious agreement through meaningful discussion.



Now the majority realize that conflict resolution through meaningful discussion is the way forward for humanity, and, as it increasingly becomes the chosen method to deal with issues, it will become apparent that people generally have many more points of agreement than of disagreement . As this happens problems that arise will be seen as opportunities to come together in celebratory meetings for the harmonious exchange of creative ideas that will benefit all of humanity.  In fact large numbers of people are already understanding this, and groups of loving creative ones are already making contact and coming together in harmonious discussion, much as musicians come together to perform (as here for instance 🙂 :


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vO3C4CHh0Nc&index=6&list=RDgKpFhPdyQLM)


All are One, and therefore harmonious interchange is the natural, uplifting, inspiring, and rejuvenating way forward, because the individual energy fields of all involved meld and integrate.  When you cooperate willingly and enthusiastically, sharing your ideas instead of trying to demolish those of others, amazing results emerge from your shared endeavors.  Cooperation is Love in action beautifully demonstrated by the outcomes that arise when egoic needs to be right or to win do not interfere with or derail the ventures in which people engage.  The point is to create something new from the pattern of ideas that arise, and, if people feel safe and unafraid, everyone then partakes in the joy that a successful outcome produces.  No one feels left out or inadequate, because the very inadequacy of some ideas – instead of invalidating the ones who put them forward – have most definitely contributed to the successful end results, by demonstrating clearly what will not function as required.  When you choose to cooperate for the benefit of all there are NO losers!


And that brings me back to the main and constant message that I keep on offering you and of which I keep on reminding, that there is only Love, and that Love changes everything!  And if you will only look you will see that happening in many unexpected places.  Focus on the positive events that are occurring, and not on the negative outpourings of the mainstream media.


With so very much love, Saul.

My comment on a friend's FB post about Transgender people in the Military

My comment on a friend's FB post about Transgender people in the Military:

"OK you asked what do we think, and most of your friends are far right, I am in the middle I have right and left friends, so perhaps I have a unique perspective.

I am saddened to see so many hateful comments from people who claim to love God. God teaches us to love, not hate. Tolerate, not persecute. Find understanding, not condemnation and judgment. Shame on some of you.

I am a straight woman. I have transgender friends and every letter of LGBT friends and clients. Guess what? It's NOT a "lifestyle choice", they are NOT "mentally ill" and believe it or not, THEY ARE PEOPLE TOO, JUST THE SAME AS YOU AND ME! While none of us are without some sort of prejudice, why do people have to be so -hateful-?

Live and let live, people. More importantly, love and forgive, even (and especially) those who "wrong" you. And those who have done nothing to you, but whose existence you loath. Your hatred and intolerance is your problem. Deal with it in a mature fashion.

Humanity is in peril if we don't change our ways quickly. I have faith that we will, but not without effort from each of us. Why hate when you can marvel at the uniqueness of each human being? Kind of proves God has a sense of humor, right? I mean, look at him! Look at her! look at YOU! hahaha.

I find myself in the middle, not far right, nor far left. I have seen mean, hateful judgements coming from both sides, directed at "the opposition" or at public figures and politicians. Yet as soon as there is a natural disaster, everyone finds their common humanity and helps each other. Is that what it takes for us to get along? I sure hope not.

I will post a link to Howard Wills Forgiveness Prayers, for those of you who want good karma and a fresh start. Nothing like gratitude and forgiveness to help us manifest love and abundance, which are the birthright of ALL human beings.

Oh, in answer to your question, (name redacted), I think any LGBT person who wants to serve is not only strong enough to serve, they are strong enough to endure harassment, marginalization, ostracism, etc....therefore they must be VERY strong and capable Patriots, and should be allowed to serve. If it were me, no way would I want to serve even if drafted. But I am not LGBT, I am a straight, mature woman.

However, I do acknowledge it does present a challenge regarding bathrooms, sleeping quarters and showers. But the challenge is not about them, it is about the other people who take exception to it. So there is unfortunately a trust issue. We often fear that which we do not understand, and fear begets hatred.

I once had a Transgender roommate in a house with 4 roommates. (It is common here for single adults to live with roommates due to the lack of affordable studios and 1-bedrooms). I would never have known he was Transgender if he had not told me. I do not care. It did not effect me one bit, except I have to say he was one of the most intelligent and considerate people I ever met. I hope I can say the same about you one day, if we ever meet.

I am not interested in arguing with anybody, but I hope I have reached even one person to make them reconsider their fear and hatred. God forgive you. I do."

A Message to Lightworkers – January 27, 2017 by Caroline Oceana Ryan

A Message to Lightworkers – January 27, 2017

by Caroline Oceana Ryan

The latest guidance from the Galactics, Earth Elementals, Ascended Masters, Faery Elders, and Angelic Beings known as the Collective:


Greetings, dear ones! We are pleased to have this chance to speak with you today.


Our writer has a few questions for us today, and so, we welcome you to our discussion:


COR: What can we do about the fact that so many people are feeling angry and disempowered now? There is also a ton of divisiveness happening in the US. Social media is full of vitriol against one president or another.
What is happening energetically, and how can we help to raise these energies to a higher level?


The Collective:



What is happening energetically, dear one, is nothing less than an earthquake within human consciousness.


Much of this has to do with the shifts being felt astrologically at present. But as well, there are new Light codes, and new informational Light data, coming to Earth from various places in the Universe, via the Great Central Sun.
And Earth Herself has entered a new era, a new reality.


And so you see the old regime striking out as vehemently as they can, using both mind-control technologies and the old fear-inducing measures of speaking of war, plunder, mindless destruction, loss of healthcare for millions—for the sake of chaos itself.


You see the false bravado and the claims of power that are baseless or empty, and they are recognized as such by many around the world.

And within the United States itself, there is great worry, from those who are feeling the effects of both word energies and the technology that broadcasts dense energies, as well as images of power misused.

Not so many there are seeing through the process in a complete way, seeing through the deceptions, let alone attempting to rescue higher meaning from the swirl of emotional reaction.


Now, if you were to step back a bit, and look at things from the perspective that this is old toxicity, coming up to the surface, and realize that it must come up—things must appear to be getting worse, before they can improve—this puts a different face on things.


We do not wish to diminutize the experience of the many millions who fear mass deportations, environmental ruin, further risk of climate change, human rights abuses, misuse of national budget, the normalization of bullying, and many other concerns.


These are significant issues, and it is understandable that those who feel the urgency of the moment would be up in arms just now.


But understand that, as we noted in our last Message, this is not all that is occurring.


And it is possible, regardless of which side of the political fence you sit on (and the time has come to dissolve that fence)—it is possible to establish a place within yourself of peace and calm.


To rise above the noise and confusion, and to decide:


“I will act. I will do all I can outwardly. But I will also use my visualizations and active ability to send Light and higher Love to every corner of this globe.


“I will daily meditate—and this is not a passive act!—to evoke energy patterns that move the masses and the events of the day into Peace and prosperity, into equal rights for all. Into the end of discrimination and misuse of power, war, division between groups, and belief in loss and scarcity.


“We are not alone, and I will carry the presence of so many higher beings, particularly the power of the Divine Feminine, forward with me, and spread that beautiful realization and presence through my own presence—spread it all over this Earth.”

This is what the indigenous elders—and often, an entire tribe—would do, for many thousands of years, to handle problems such as the possibility of war, environmental disaster, illness, extreme weather, or other difficulties that could bring down the vibration of their entire tribe.

They would gather and decide which of the Universal powers they needed to call upon—which gods or goddesses, which energy factors, and which patterns of higher Light, to address a particular problem.


Then they would enact either a known ritual or create a new one.


And this ritual was not merely to raise the spirits and outlook of their own inner selves, or that of the tribe.


These were sacred moments of active co-Creation.


In these moments of chanting, song, dance, or prophecy, vibrations were enacted that shifted the outer reality of the tribe, so that they were actively and consciously moving into another reality—another timeline, or a new manifestation that was so profound, they were in some ways moving to another, higher vibrational timeline.
They would not have dreamt of sitting and complaining, let alone spent hours or days writing out or speaking their frustrations with others, arguing their case against another, as if that sort of back-and-forth clash of ideas solves the problem at hand, for it does not.


They took active co-Creative measures to ensure that they were not abandoning their community, which included children and elderly whose vulnerability needed to be protected, to the crisis they were facing.


They took full responsibility for shifting from one reality into another—one of their own creation.


A reality that they knew the loving forces of this Universe not only supported, but expected them to enact.
That is what is needed here, dear one. Not more posturing, anger, or debate.


The women and their friends who marched last Saturday took up just this active, co-Creative stance, some without realizing fully the power and importance of the ritual they were enacting.


For with every sign, every declaration of what they would or would not live in, they were in their own way declaring to the Universe which reality they would live in. Shifting the frequencies up to a new and higher level.
And so, is this the last word in changing the world?


It cannot be, for though powerful, these gatherings are limited in certain respects. Those in power notice them, but tend to wait until they subside.


And yet—much change was enacted, not merely by the gathering of human selves, but by the outpouring and concentration into a singular cause—human rights, and with it, planetary rights—and this, dear ones—this actively shifted the direction that the human race is headed in.

There is still work to be done, to directly write and steer public policy and laws into a closer resonance with what NESARA brings once fully unfolded.

Yet this one day, in which marches and speeches, songs and chants and declarations, occurred at the same times, and with the same intention, all over the planet, has created a powerful wave of Light and higher Love that is still reverberating through your reality, shifting not only thoughtforms but outer forms as well.


Its influence will be felt for many years to come, as other similar streams of thought pour into that singular stream of Light, and Love for all Life, strengthening it many times over, and establishing with that impetus a new higher vibration in human affairs.


COR: And is this all connected to NESARA?


The Collective:


That is the most beautiful part of the equation, as you would say.


This is the very spirit of NESARA itself, come home to take up its vibrational realness in your very own backyard—not only in the United States, but planet Earth, in general.


COR: And yet, I feel a tendency in myself and many Lightworkers, to treat NESARA as an ephemeral dream.


Even while we’re telling people about it and handing out flyers, and asking people to sign the NESARA petition, we’re trying to protect ourselves against the disappointment of not seeing it enacted yet.


It’s a strange dichotomy. Because I try to spend time feeling the reality of NESARA happening now, being here now, but I feel like I’m trying to avoid feeling disappointment that it’s not fully here yet, at the same time.


The Collective:



And yet we have said many times, dear one, it is being enacted—that is a process, not a single moment.
And days such as were seen on the 21^st of this month of January was one of those moments—an empowering and beautiful sign of human sovereignty, coming to the fore.


Do you imagine that NESARA could be enacted, before human beings demanded to be free? Before they required that all government come up to the level of Divine Government?



That would be equal to wanting to create something in a laboratory, without the chemicals and elements needed to create that particular outcome.


Any good scientist would ask how far you expected to get, without all the ingredients needed to create your intended outcome!

This is why we say, even if it appears that much ground has been lost, consider that some ground is temporarily lost, for the very great outcome of ALL of it being gained.


The current run of events has spurred on the population of this planet to sit up, realize what is happening, and to wake up, thoroughly—some perhaps, for the first time in many years, or the first time in their lives.


Nothing less than the awakening of an entire planet is occurring now, dear ones!


And so, do we weep for you?


No! We cannot, for we see the depths and the heights of your dreams of a fifth dimensional Earth life, and your active declarations and expectations that this is so now—the very stuff of manifestation power.


For this is a moment you have created, to spur on not merely a disturbance in the Force (the stars and planets have brought you that already), but a Great Awakening, spread across your Earth, whom you are protecting with every fiber of your being, every bit of heart-power you possess.


And we would say, the beauty of this is immense, dear Light Bearers. And astounding to behold.
Namaste, friends!


We honor your path! You are never alone.

Many are becoming sick with hypothermia, losing their bodily functions, medical help is not getting through, there was a small fire. The water cannons were pretty intense.

I am appalled and disheartened that people can do this to other human beings.
$$$$$ rules, not heart. Do not wait till the ecological disaster comes. Speak up!

Stop the persecution of Julian Assange!UN panel condemns detention of WikiLeaks founder

Stop the persecution of Julian Assange! UN panel condemns detention of WikiLeaks founder
5 February 2016
http://kielarowski.net/2016/02/05/stop-the-persecution-of-julian-assange/

More than five years after first being detained under a European Arrest Warrant (EAW) issued by Sweden in relation to fabricated allegations of sexual misconduct, and after more than three and a half years holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy in London, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been vindicated by a United Nations human right panel. This body has ruled that his persecution by the Swedish and British governments amounts to “arbitrary detention” and constitutes a violation of international law.

Assange’s sole “crime” is making public secret documents detailing the real and murderous war crimes carried out by the US government in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as the conspiracies hatched by the US State Department and the CIA in countries around the world.

For exposing its criminal operations, Washington is determined to silence and punish Assange, using the lies concocted by Swedish prosecutors and the complicity of the British government to achieve its aims.

The Swedish Foreign Ministry Thursday acknowledged that the UN’s Working Group on Arbitrary Detention (UNWGAD) will today issue its findings that Assange has been “deprived of his liberty in an arbitrary manner for an unacceptable length of time.”

The UN panel could only have reached such a decision based on overwhelming evidence that the charges against Assange constitute a legal frame-up mounted for political purposes.

Even before the findings of the UN working group were made known, Assange issued a statement from the Ecuadorian embassy accepting the decision as the culmination of his final legal appeal. He declared that, were the panel to rule against him, he would leave the embassy on Friday “to accept arrest by British police.” He went on to insist that if it found that the Swedish and British governments were acting in violation of international law, “I expect the immediate return of my passport and the termination of further attempts to arrest me.”

Neither London nor Stockholm, however, have shown any similar inclination to allow international law and the human rights treaties to which both are signatories to guide their actions.

A spokesman for the government of Prime Minister David Cameron issued a cynical statement insisting that Julian Assange “has never been arbitrarily detained by the UK but is, in fact, voluntarily avoiding lawful arrest by choosing to remain in the Ecuadorian embassy.” Only last October did British police end a round-the-clock siege of the embassy, announcing that they were pursuing “covert” methods in seeking Assange’s capture. At one point, the British government indicated that it would ignore international law protecting embassies and send security forces to storm the building.

As for the Swedish government, the foreign ministry in Stockholm issued a brief note asserting that the UN’s ruling “differs from that of the Swedish authorities” and would not alter its legal vendetta against the WikiLeaks founder.

The British and the US governments have regularly invoked the findings of the UN panel on arbitrary detentions when they could be used to lend a “human rights” pretext to imperialist operations against countries like China, Russia, Iran, Syria, Venezuela and Cuba. That the actions taken by London and Washington themselves should be subject to international law, however, is rejected out of hand.

What they find impermissible is the exposure of their crimes, which have killed and wounded millions, while turning many millions more into homeless refugees. This is why they have not only hounded Assange, but placed Private Chelsea (formerly Bradley) Manning in prison for 35 years.

Manning was convicted by a drumhead military tribunal in 2013 on charges of “aiding the enemy” for providing WikiLeaks with hundreds of thousands of classified documents, including the “collateral murder” video showing an Apache helicopter’s gun sight view of the 2007 massacre of 12 Iraqi civilians. Also leaked were the “Afghan war diary” and the “Iraq war logs,” exposing multiple war crimes committed by the US military, and over 250,000 secret US diplomatic cables revealing Washington’s counterrevolutionary intrigues around the globe.

Meanwhile, Edward Snowden, the former National Security Agency contractor who exposed the NSA’s wholesale collection of every form of data on the planet, from US and non-US citizens alike, in open violation of the US Bill of Rights and international law, has been turned into a man without a country, living in forced exile in Moscow.

There are a number of other such cases, including that of ex-CIA officer John Kiriakou, the only person punished in connection with the CIA’s torture of detainees—sent to prison for publicly exposing it. The Obama administration has prosecuted more individuals under the Espionage Act for leaking secret information to the media than all other US presidents combined.

Assange can expect even worse if he falls into the clutches of the British police and the Swedish authorities, who are acting as the agents of the US military and intelligence apparatus. He has been the subject of a secret grand jury investigation for over five years and is undoubtedly charged in a sealed indictment with espionage and other crimes against the state that could bring him life in prison or even the death penalty. Meanwhile, leading political figures in the US have openly called for his assassination.

Assange, Manning, Snowden and others have faced relentless persecution for daring to lift the lid on the secret operations of the US government.

This witch hunt is driven by the deepest needs of the American state, which functions as the instrument of a financial oligarchy. It defends this ruling layer’s vast wealth and monopoly on political power against the masses of working people in the US and around the world, while seeking to offset the economic decline of American capitalism by waging ever-more dangerous wars of aggression. Given the criminal character of these operations, a regime of secrecy and increasingly dictatorial methods is indispensable.

The only genuine constituency for the defense of democratic rights is the working class. Working people must come to the defense of Assange, Snowden, Manning and other victims of state conspiracies and repression.

Any attempt to arrest or extradite Assange must be answered with mass demonstrations and work actions in the UK, the US and all over the world.

This campaign in defense of Assange and the other victims of state repression can go forward only as part of the struggle of the international working class against the capitalist system, whose historic crisis threatens humanity with both world war and police state dictatorship.

Compassion, Refugees, Rape and Magic | Laura Bruno's Blog

Phoenixfirebird:

Thank you for speaking out on this controversial and disturbing
topic. If anyone has any doubt about the horrors of Sharia Law and how
it has inflicted itself on innocents around the world, visit
https://shariaunveiled.wordpress.com which appears to mirror the website
http://www.shariaunveiled.com



Just as anyone speaking out against Netanyahu and the harsh policies of
Israel can be labeled anti-Semitic, any outsider challenging Sharia Law
can also face criticism, or worse.



What people need to understand is that this is about basic human rights, and
specifically about the rights of oppressed women in a culture whose
belief system is imposed on the world much like the Star Trek anomaly,
The BORG. Refusal to assimilate in host countries is a big problem, and
one of the reasons people fear immigrants. The U.S. was meant to be a
melting pot of blended cultures, celebrating diversity, not segregated
cultures of disparate ideologies bumping up against one another.



Thank you for this powerful piece.

refugee crisis. I don’t often do much with Icke, but I really
appreciated him addressing the hypocrisy of David Cameron (and others)
talking about how “the solution to the refugee crisis is to bring peace
to the Middle East.” The words sound nice, and most of us would probably
agree with them; however, Icke highlights the actions behind the words
and how collective outrage over the photo with the little boy is being
propagandized to bring “peace” to the Middle East by forcing Parliament
to allow the UK to join the US and Turkey in bombing Syria.
Into peace. Arming “rebels,” aka ISIS, aka fundamentalist Muslims from
whom the refugees are fleeing. Orwellian doublespeak to the max.





The cognitive dissonance is beyond staggering whenever I mention to “peace lovers”…

The Boys Respond To The Cuckoo’s Nest And More
By The Keenan Team

Our site has been quiet of late, but Neil knows that everyone looks forward to some word about what’s going on.  So amidst this ongoing “lockdown,”  he takes a much-needed, short break from all of the intense work for a bit of amusement as well as to provide a bit of information.

The latest shenanigans by Denise and Jean are “pure bull” as Neil puts it.  He’s not going to let them get away with much, and in fact, he is going to devote an entire Facebook page to them and what they call “pornography.”

Come on girls, this is 2014 not 1924.  Granny pants are out, bikinis are in, and hey, it seems no public personality is without groupies.  Because Denise and Jean are very obviously not happy or young, they feebly attempt to try to condemn those who are.

The good news is that the Global Accounts are soon to be opened.  But war is at hand and the transition to the world we want to see will not be a smooth one.  The members of the cabal walk freely among us every day and they need to be called out on the crimes that they are perpetrating.  Neil declares:  “Grab them all by their necks and drag them in the street.  This will wake their asses up!”

The reality is that we are all being killed off by the hands of the cabal every single day.  We see the chemtrails in our skies every day.  We know the deadly effects of their man-made viruses and lethal vaccines.  We know that the GMO foods are poison to our bodies.  They are trying to eliminate us without them having to dirty their own filthy hands.  This is the fight we must bring to them!

To do this we have to wake up and acknowledge what is going on.  We have to open our eyes and those of our children, our family, our friends and those that would be our friends.  All of our lives are at stake here.

While the Cabal sleeps, we worry about what they are doing to us.  Let’s turn the tables on them and not allow them to sleep.  Let’s make them worry, and let’s get rid of those jokers in the White House.

Rattle some cages in any way you can –  every day counts!  It is time to take back what is ours.  Our destiny is in our hands.

Neil sends his sincere thanks each member of the Keenan Team for their tireless efforts and also to all of our patient supporters.  We hope to be back soon enough with news on the fruits of all of Neil’s work.

The Keenan Team

I just can’t wade through all the news on war, immigration and oppression at the moment. Not goin’ there.



I got the Internet AND the dog fixed on the same day. Life is good!



Here’s a tale that could only be true if it really was.



Folks who have researched the “legal name” and “Freeman” aspect of our hijacked identities will appreciate this.



I’m just proud of myself for remembering to add “without
prejudice” when a cop stopped me recently for not pausing long enough at
a minor, rural intersection so he could “read the rims” as he put it.



I was honoured to be able to act as a prime example for the new
recruit he was training and felt like asking him if he also stops people
for driving 2 miles an hour over the speed limit but he was SO
complimentary to Mica in the back seat…
