HEGSETH HONORS WHITE SUPREMACIST CULT LEADER AT PENTAGON

       During the last week, posting was slow while I was away working on a project. While there, I ran into a friend of a colleague who told me that her brother was the Pastor of a 'MAGA Church.' Because of what I've said and written about cults before, she wanted to let me know that her brother's church was bearing some eerie similarities to many of the online Red-Pill and Supremacist cults I'd spoken of.

     I do appreciate that more and more American Christians are starting to become aware of how our traditions are being hijacked and co-opted by these charlatans. Most of the blogs and websites active in these movements during the 2010s have collapsed; but they've moved more---not less---into the Mainstream. Part of the reason for this is that Big Money has moved the tenets of the Cult into larger activist pools and made them open for public discussion where there should be none. The efforts of people like Peter Thiel and his henchman JD Vance through the Rockbridge Network have elevated these cultists to positions of power which any sane society would keep them as far away from as possible. 

    Pete Hegseth, the head of the Pentagon, is a case in point. At his monthly prayer meeting of his so-called Rapid Response Team on the 17th, and look who showed up to address the assembled Supermen:

         Yes, our old friend Doug Wilson. Wilson is, of course, a notorious kook of whom we've written many times. There practically is no sociopolitical position too reactionary for him to embrace, as Wikipedia summarizes it: "He is a public proponent of Postmillennialism, Christian Nationalism, Covenant Theology, and Biblical Patriarchy...a self-described 'Paleo-Confederate...' To explain all of these rather specific and esoteric terms succinctly, Wilson's theology boils down to a variant of the 'Prosperity Gospel' with a Social Darwinist angle. In the ordinary strain of the Prosperity Gospel, God supposedly wills all believers to be rich and successful, whereas in Wilson's version such worldly benefits accrue through entitlement manifested as strength. Both strains are Utopian and a natural fit for the sort of Scientistic Fascism promoted by the likes of Theil and Vance.

        The idea that the World should fall under the rule of an autocratic aristocracy which fancies itself the Chosen People of God is a notion taken from some of the later strains of Jewish theology and repudiated by the Gospels. Christ taught that "my Kingdom is not of this world" and that "the Kingdom of God is within you." In this way, Christ was restoring the original ideal of the Jewish Faith. The original system traditionally founded by Moses was that of a decentralized state where people were bound together by a common faith; and governed loosely by Judges, or wise men who could settle disputes over questionable points of the law. The last of these Judges, the prophet Samuel denounced the people's insistence on a central authority; and as the prophet Hosea later, speaking on God's behalf, "I gave you a king in my anger and took him away in my wrath." 

      It's also noteworthy---and should be instructive to these Christian Nationalists---that when Christ was tempted by Satan, His Sooty Highness offered Our Lord "all the kingdoms of the world." These Christian Nationalists and their flying monkeys among the so-called Christian Right maybe ought to think twice about which Spirit is actually inspiring them. 

         The Denialists and apologists for the current Government have defended Wilson's appearance by claiming that the pastor said nothing controversial during his speech and that criticism of his appearance is simply Cancel Culture. This probably as good an excuse as any for the Postmodern Christian Right; but it's a flawed argument on two grounds. First, Wilson's appearance alone is an endorsement of his views. He wasn't chosen for his alleged spiritual insights: Wilson was chosen because of he is a symbol of the ideology that he represents. When churchmen have openly expressed political views, their spiritual views are always secondary to their political message when appearing at a political or governmental event.

        Secondly, the apologies are not true. Wilson used his Pentagon sermon time to pray for a 'black swan revival.' A Black Swan Event is defined as "an unforeseen event which has wide-ranging consequences," which seems to have extremely ominous overtones, especially given his audience. I have an uneasy feeling that whatever event Wilson has in mind might be unforeseen by the general public might be not-so-unplanned by the people in league with Wilson. Nor will the consequences be unintended, by the way.

      Both Hegseth and Wilson are menaces to society, and both should be repudiated. But with their cult (and adjacent ones) in such a position of power, it is unlikely. Last July, Wilson even established a branch office inside the District of Columbia (which is also under Martial Law and Hegseth's control), leasing a building owned by the shady NGO, the Conservative Partnership Institute which has extensive ties to the Heritage Foundation and other Deep State fronts. It's up to American Christians, at a true grass-roots level to stand up and oppose what these people are doing and what they stand for. 

     

     

THE EPSTEIN 'SCANDAL' AND CULTURAL ROT

        Anybody who's been following events here in the Prozac Nation probably saw that figurehead US Attorney-General Pam Bondi finally was called to testify before Congress yesterday. What do we suppose that our fearless public servants in Congress and our highly dedicated professional journalists focused upon? Was it to answer for the obvious bungling of another high-profile crime? Or was it to answer for ongoing cover-ups of ICE brutality? Or maybe it was to answer concerns about NSPM-7 and the potential for over-reach involved in classifying Politically Correct thought-crimes as acts of Domestic Terrorism? Maybe it was even to answer questions about seizures of voter rolls and records? 

        Well, no; it was none of those things. Ms. Pamela was called before Congress for the one thing that Americans consider more important than entrusting unaccountable police power into the hands of fools and incompetents. No: the whole proceeding focused upon online controversies surrounding muh Epstein Files. 

         This isn't just an American phenomenon either. Over in Old Blighty, the last Epstein release was enough to trigger an emergency session of Parliament: something that British support for Zionist Genocide or Keir Starmer's aggressive pushes for Digital ID systems and encroachments on Internet freedom couldn't accomplish. Members of the untouchable so-called House of Lords have been forced to resign and there's a furious debate that Prince Andrew sullied the sterling reputation of the British Crown which the descendants of George III have weathered from the perversions of Queen Victoria's Court to the suspicious death of Princess Diana.  

        North of the Border, too, the official cover-up of yet another Rainbow Warrior being involved in a mass-shooting this week has faded into the background because Epstein visited the country in 2014 and Canadian politicians have shown up on the 'list.' 

       I'm certain that Australia and New Zealand aren't far behind the rest of the English-speaking world in these respects just judging from the mass-hysteria that's emerged there over previous allegations of sexual impropriety. 

      The obvious conclusion that we can draw from these events is that the English-speaking world has a radically defective moral compass. The problem, however, goes much deeper than that. The English-speaking Western Nations are deeply repressive sexual cultures. Their fawning idolization of the Rainbow Pride movement doesn't counter that argument: it confirms it. Homosexuality and related perversions become prominent in a cultural milieu where natural sexual affections and interests are repressed. The mass-hysteria over the Epstein Files and its elevation to national crises stages is further proof of this. 

      The degeneration of sexuality didn't occur overnight; it's been part of an ongoing pressure campaign for the last few decades. Natural sexuality effects the individual on the deepest psychological level, and it's in the interests of totalitarian ideologues to undermine it as much as possible. This is one reason why homosexuals have such strong inclinations for supporting authoritarian regimes. 

          Americans, by and large, have bought into the anti-sexual zeitgeist, beginning with the Radical Feminism of the 1970s and reaching a full-on cultural crusade with Hilary Clinton's Gender Wars and the Controlled Opposition's Ritual Abuse panics of the 1990s. It's in the interests of the Ruling Elites to foment as much fear and division between the sexes as possible. This is the Strategy of Tension applied to the most individual and personal levels---and, of course, to the Elites the personal is political. 

       Some may ask: is what you're suggesting is that the current incarnation of the Epstein 'Scandal' is a psyop? That is exactly what I'm suggesting. Let's not forget who started this whole manufactured controversy in the first place:

         Like Epstein, Musk is a firm believer in both Transhumanism and Eugenics. Of course, those elements of Epstein's activities will be swept under the rug and the focus will be on lurid (hetero) sexual details that are alleged to have happened on Epstein Island. Musk and his Incel moles in DOGE---who got sweeping access to governmental records and now control wide swaths of Social Media can frame the controversy at will and, yes: they are doing so to advance their own agendas while distracting attention from issues which we should take seriously.

      

 

        

TRASH CULTURE SHAPES THE NEW MEDIA

          So, this Sunday America's annual celebratory monument to Trash Culture, the Super Bowl, came and went. Of course, the controversies go on: the Corporate Media has to milk these events for ad revenue long afterwards. Like the Academy Awards and similar staged farces, the choreographers and producers of 'Halftime Show' has to come up with something to politicize the whole thing on top of its obvious crass commercialism and general superficiality. The City of Seattle is hosting the obligatory victory parade for their hometown heroes, all of whom probably are already in contact with their agents to negotiate for higher contracts and willing to sell their services to the highest bidder. 

        In a culture where the personal is political, obviously we can't be entertained without making a statement of some sort. The grifters at Turning Point USA---which has had remarkable success with staging these kinds of spectacles---set up an 'Alt-Halftime Show' to balance the Virtue-Signalling from the other side. Today everyone is talking about Bad Bunny and Kid Rock; names which would sound to an impartial observer like a pair of characters from an old Loony Tunes episode.

          In a culture where Status and Celebrity matters, it's considered edgy and admirable whenever one of these corporate properties affects to have an independent thought. The fact that all of these Media creations are paid performers never seems to occur to anybody. Since the advent of motion pictures---actually even before to a lesser extent in the days of theater and novels---clever sharpers and marketing analysts learned that audiences vicariously identify with characters. There has always been this kind of conflict between whether entertainment was a performative art or a commercial enterprise. In the early days of Hollywood, this was a much deeper discussion: often leading to clashes between directors and producers. There is no controversy any more as to which side eventually won out. 

       Following the First World War, some saw the potential of successful wartime propaganda for the wider application of mass psychological manipulation. The Third Reich was really the first government to put the theory into practice. The Regime established an agency, the Reich Ministry of Enlightenment and Propaganda which had control over all entertainment venues. "The Ministry has the task of carrying out an intellectual mobilization in Germany. In the field of the spirit it is thus the same as the Ministry of Defense in the field of security. [...] Spiritual mobilization [is] just as necessary, perhaps even more necessary, than making the people materially able to defend themselves," Herr Goebbels said in a speech to broadcasters in 1934. 

         In the US, we (for now) don't have the infrastructure of a State-Controlled Media, although Corporate control over such outlets makes the distinction between the two rather blurred. What we are currently witnessing is a shift from so-called 'Legacy Media' to so-called 'independent outlets,' which has been ongoing for some time even before the current Administration assumed power and took measures to accelerate the decline of the former and the elevation of the latter. However, as Kit Knightly pointed out:

       "The fact is, legacy media is dying. Which is a good thing. But do you think the establishment doesn't see this? Do you think it hadn't occurred to them to get out in front of it by seizing control of the new media platforms and planting "leaders" in supposedly independent media movements? Like a hermit crab swapping out shells – they will simply slide themselves from their old home to a nice shiny new "indy" one..getting totally accidentally promoted by the algorithm."

       Under the Biden/Harris Administration, the Democrats actively acted upon this principle, using paid influencers to promote their policies and making attempts to define what is disinformation and promoting Speech Codes. True to it's reactionary nature, the New Right merely took up where the Democrats left off, including repressive speech codes beginning with phony campaigns against alleged 'antisemitism' and culminating in NSPM-7; they've even set up their own Disinformation Bureau, and many of these supposedly 'alternative news' outlets---including the aforementioned TPUSA---are heavily funded by organizations with vested interests, including the biggest and loudest of them all: the WEF-connected Social Media platform X. 

      What we really witnessed with the 'Alt-Halftime Show' was just another trend in the movement from a failing Media system to one more concentrated, controlled, and efficient. The collapse of these Legacy Media systems should have been met with de-centralization and effective legislative guardrails against future concentrations of power and abuses of technology. Instead, what we're seeing is the beginning stages of an authoritarian media system, where the worst elements of the old system are both retained and amplified, and the best elements of competition and the Free Market are swept aside.

THE MISSING LINKS

         With Americans distracted with a deeply politicized Super Bowl and ongoing flaps over muh Epstein Files, the White House's Troll Factory threw some further gasoline on the fires by posting a video clip which---well---speaks for itself.

          After defending this clip all day Friday afternoon, the White House removed it, offering a few back-handed excuses. Republican Senator Tim Scott broke ranks, saying that "this is the most racist thing I've seen from this White House;" an interesting choice of words here. "Most racist" implies other such occurrences---which anybody who's paid attention could not have helped but observe. Not surprisingly, Scott himself met with a backlash for this deviation from the Official Party Narrative (with apologies to the readership for the expletive, MAGA women these days can be very crude):

       Actually, the only surprising thing in this whole controversy is the fact that anyone was surprised by it to begin with. The New Right---from its billionaire donor base to its pundits and influencers---is literally stacked with Christian Nationalists, White Supremacists, Zionists, Eugenicists, Neo-Nazis, and Alpha Red-Pill Social Darwinists---what else would we expect? The only thing that defenders of this video actually got correct is that the Democrat's/Controlled Opposition's reaction was fake outrage: but that also isn't surprising.

      So why was this clip released? We have to put this in context of the New Right's greater plan, which we've touched upon in the previous two articles. The Oligarchs want to incite Race Riots again---this time to generate a pretext for paramilitary occupation of American cities. The DOGE purges, NSPM-7, Congressional cave-ins on funding for the Security State, the fake shutdown last year of welfare programs, the ramping up of ICE terror along with its expressed goal of Ethnic Cleansing, the creation of a paramilitary domestic Strike Force, the President's recent statement that Federal authorities would not intervene in riots: all of these provocations are designed to create civil unrest, declare another 'State of Emergency' and impose some type of Martial Law.

      Probably the reason why we haven't seen riots break out yet is because the Oligarchs have restrained the rent-a-mobs they deployed in 2020 because they don't want it spiraling out of control like the George-What's-His-Name 'protests' did. Minneapolis, founding site of the last major urban riots, was an obvious test-run for what they intend to do there and elsewhere. As long as they can contain these outbursts to localities, they can cut down opposition piecemeal rather than try to contain a national movement. 

     The Obama clip is simply yet another step in normalizing the Totalitarian mindset that characterizes the New Right: which in turn is merely a Reactionary re-branding of the Political Correctness and Woke Ideologies of the New Left. Both are variations of Identity Politics and part of the Strategy of Tension which has as its ultimate goal the public begging for a strong central government to restore order from the chaos that the Ruling Class itself created. 

     We can't, of course, depend much on either our servile Media or our corrupt Academic institutions to draw these kinds of conclusions. As always, the real Missing Link is the failure to draw the connections between who actually incites these controversies, and for what reasons.

      

     

      

COLOR REVOLUTIONS IN US CITIES, PART II

        I recall that during the O.J. Simpson Trial---one of our first public-spectacle Kangaroo Courts of the Postmodern Era---somebody made a parody song that concluded with North Korea nuking the White House and the story getting preempted by the networks because of breaking developments in the case. Three decades later, the American Public hasn't grown any wiser or gotten any better.

        Our Pentagon is currently run by a homicidal maniac whose Confirmation was nearly blocked in the Senate---not because of his incompetence, ties to White Supremacist cults and Neo-Nazis, nor because of his public statements of contempt for international rules of civilized warfare. No: the Opposition's main concern with Pete Hegseth was that allegations of sexual impropriety had been brought to their attention. Hegseth currently has been amassing another armada in the Middle East, by some accounts armed with atomic weapons, but Americans are busy finger-pointing over who might have been sleeping with whom on Epstein Island.

       In another story from last Summer that Americans ignored while obsessing over sexual gossip, we might remember that the aforementioned Hegseth was ordered by the White House to create a Domestic Paramilitary Strike Force. That story dissipated during September's hoopla over the Charlie Kirk shooting; but in light of current stories, it begins to take on ominous new dimensions. 

      After the establishment of this American SS, the Kirk shooting spawned NSPM-7, which reclassifies most dissent as Domestic Terrorism. NSPM-7 later was employed to justify the murder and detention of protesters in Minneapolis. The template for the Occupation of Minneapolis was set earlier by the ongoing Occupation of Washington, DC. For those 'Conservatives' out there who want to swoon in absolute delight over the New Order in American cities, consider yesterday's statement by another former Media blowhard in the Administration who now serves as US District Attorney for DC:

       “You bring a gun into the District, you mark my words, you’re going to jail. I don’t care if you have a license in another district, and I don’t care if you’re a law-abiding gun owner somewhere else. You bring a gun into this District, count on going to jail, and hope you get the gun back,” said Jeanine Pirro.

       This is what Martial Law really looks like. Washington is also well on its way to becoming a Smart City too. 

      Beginning with Musk's wholesale purges of the Government down to present events, the New Right has been moving inexorably toward the establishment of a Totalitarian State. The last week or so has been noteworthy in the calls from both the White House and the Punditocracy to suspend or otherwise control US Elections, an idea which originally proposed by the Democrats, but now part of the agenda of the Reactionary Wing of the Uniparty. Our nominal Head-of-State spoke on his former colleague Dan Bongino's podcast floating the idea, while Neo-Nazi Steve Bannon called for stormtroopers to take over election offices.

     

      To underscore their intentions even further, the White House dispatched WEF Young Global Leader Tulsi Gabbard to Atlanta to oversee the seizure of election records in Georgia. Atlanta is also near the site of a proposed Concentration Camp: the purposes of which should be obvious by now. Tulsi Gabbard is a 'former Democrat' though, the aforementioned Bannon, as well as Neo-Nazis Richard Spencer, David Duke, and former Red-Pill blogger Chateau Heartiste endorsed her candidacy. Like Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard is also involved in a Supremacist cult; though the Corporate Media gives all of this a Free Pass. 

       Some may argue that it's absurd anyway to talk about Electoral Integrity when American Elections already are controlled by Corporate Interests. Sadly, there is truth to this objection. However, these latest moves by the Administration do nothing to combat corruption, but more dangerously is a renunciation of the very ideal of self-government. If these measures are allowed to stand, the door to any legitimate reform of American Elections will be closed. 

      Then again, what did we think was going to happen? American 'Conservatives' were content to look the other way at all of the obvious---and often openly admitted---signs that this is exactly where the New Right intended to go. What was a threat in 2020 has become a positive danger today; and all of the distractions and pretending that isn't won't change that threat.

COLOR REVOLUTIONS COMING TO US CITIES?

        Somebody pointed out today in a conversation that the whole Epstein flap really has become the Democrats' version of Q Anon. Both controversies depended wholly on how willing Americans are to believe that the Deep State would allow damaging information on itself---over which it has had complete control for years---to be broadcast publicly across the Internet. Americans have proven their gullibility once again. The Chinese Media, to its credit, has until today given the story all the attention it really deserves (i.e. none). One of their analysts summed it better than American pundits ever do, saying, "The Epstein case has increasingly become a partisan political tool, with critics noting that selective document releases are unlikely to have major real-time political consequences," Lü Xiang, a research fellow at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times on Sunday. "While the Epstein files may reinforce public perceptions of systemic corruption in the US, its practical political impact is expected to be limited, especially given Epstein’s death and the difficulty of verifying key details." 

        While most Americans were spending the weekend pointing fingers at each other over whose hated political figures were 'covering up' and generally seething with disappointment that there weren't as many salacious details as they'd hoped to indulge their fantasies with, more news that actually might impact our future as a Republic passed unnoticed.

        The aforementioned Democrats engineered another Government Shutdown which, of course, like the last one is designed to give themselves political cover for doing nothing while the Executive Branch continues Rule by Decree. One such unnoticed Decree issued this weekend came from the White House and noted that:

        "I have instructed Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, that under no circumstances are we going to participate in various poorly run Democrat Cities with regard to their Protests and/or Riots unless, and until, they ask us for help. We will, however, guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked… I have instructed ICE and/or Border Patrol to be very forceful in this protection of Federal Government Property. 

       "If local governments are unable to handle the Insurrectionists, Agitators, and Anarchists, we will immediately go to the location where such help is requested and take care of the situation very easily and methodically. Federal agencies – and if necessary, our Military– would respond forcefully if federal property is threatened."

         Let's let this sink in for a moment. What the White House essentially has done here is to put all potential domestic rioters and troublemakers on notice that there will be no federal intervention in Democrat-run cities. Which means, in theory, that assorted Brownshirts, Neo-Nazis, and various rent-a-mobs (like the ones hired to stage Color Revolutions abroad) can run riot in Democrat-controlled cities so long as they avoid the Party's institutions. 

       Does this mean we'll start seeing scenes like Maidan and the Arab Spring on American City streets? Anyone inclined to dismiss this idea ought to be aware that this has happened elsewhere and the same people who orchestrated them have members of this Administration doing their bidding. 

       The mayors of these cities can call in Federal help: but as we've seen in Washington D.C., that would mean Martial Law. Any one who still clings to the idea that the New Right wouldn't go that far is deceiving themselves. The Democrats, who think that they'll vote their way out of this, are even more deceived.

      Instead of deceiving ourselves, however, we should ignore the Media and come to grips with the fact that All Roads Lead to Totalitarianism, as the current sociopolitical trends indicate and start planning accordingly. 

       

THE MINNESOTA CHURCH PROTEST: ANOTHER ANGLE

         Yesterday, for a brief period of time, the biggest news-story in the United States was the Department of Justice's announcement that it had ordered a targeted round-up of independent journalists who were on-scene at a protest outside the Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. Among those caught in the DOJ dragnet was former CNN reporter Don Lemon. Mimicking the Democrats' response to the January 6th Protests, the Woke Right is already hunting down the other protesters and magnifying the crimes committed as major offenses against the Government. 

       The story disappeared before people starting noticing these kinds of comparisons, because---as anyone who's seen today's headlines has observed---the DOJ distracted everyone with a massive dump of muh Epstein Files. The first 'news' story upon awakening this morning was the absolutely shocking and earth-shaking revelation that Bill Gates caught a sexually-transmitted disease from a prostitute two or so decades ago. 

        Of course, we can't count on today's media to focus on, say, some of the actual scandals that Gates might be involved in today; and, to be fair, the aforementioned Don Lemon has never exactly been a model of journalistic integrity. However, in this case, whatever he was doing at the Minnesota Church doesn't seem to amount to the levels of Domestic Terrorism, although according to NSPM-7, the New Right has broadened that definition considerably. Consider also that Lemon is now an 'independent journalist;' now that he's no longer (officially) part of the Corporate Media, he and others like him are expendable. 

       Both factions reporting on the protest at the church have also found it expedient---as they typically do---to leave out certain details about the protest. One would get the impression that this was a normal worship service randomly targeted by actual extremists (such as many on the 'Left' have done before). However, it may be that the protesters chose this particular church since its pastor. one David Easterwood, also holds the position of Director of ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations. In other words, the ICE thugs operating in the area are under Easterwood's direct command. 

        In other words, this was very much a politically-motivated protest and not a random attack on a church. The Director is organizationally responsible for the abuses we have seen in the Twin Cities recently. Easterwood is just as culpable for these actions as Bovino and Homan. 

       The politics obviously therefore don't end with the protests. Cities Church's founding pastor, Joe Rigny, now serves as an Associate Pastor at Doug Wilson's White Nationalist Church in Moscow, Idaho. Wilson heads a coalition of Supremacist cults, the CREC; which, in turn, is part of Peter Thiel's and JD Vance's pet project, the Rockbridge Network. 

      With these details in mind, we can see why the Administration is meeting the incident with a heavy-handed approach. The protesters should have been disciplined: possibly charged with violations of local ordinances, while Lemon was sidelined and laughed at. But, instead, we see the New Right behaving as they always do: like Reactionary Democrats. This is the January 6th witch-hunt with a Republican label. 

       Like January 6th, this move is also about suppressing dissent and intimidating opposition to the New Order. It is further evidence that America did not change course after the 2024 Elections, we merely entered into the Accelerationist Phase of the ongoing move towards Totalitarianism.
