I don't think there's anything terribly surprising to be found here. Politico reports on a 'Re-migration' summit back in May 2026 that took place in Portugal. The article simply demonstrates the degree of overlap and how these issues are bringing together the various Right-wing parties within Europe - each with their own nuance and degrees of restraint.
American Family Radio continues to push the Great Replacement theory and one means by doing so is by linking up with Michael Youssef - a millionaire mega-church pastor from Atlanta who has marketed his Egyptian heritage. I've listened to him many times on the radio and not only have I found his teaching to be defective, there is something of the charlatan and fraud about him. There are so many 'experts' that emerged after 9/11 that have cashed on on Middle-Eastern and Islamic backgrounds - and yet so many have been exposed as frauds.

This segment will prove enlightening for those unfamiliar with certain aspects of Epstein's profile and just how he 'fit in' with the Capitalist ruling class or elite. The notion that Jamie Dimon (CEO of JP Morgan) was unaware of Epstein's relationship to the bank is absurd and obviously he's perjured himself. Why would he do this? Why would he do this with seemingly no fear of being held to account?

I recommend this article because even though it's far more pro-Israel than I would be, and far more critical of Anti-Zionism than I think warranted, the author nevertheless is sceptical of Elise Stefanik and her supposedly pro-Jewish credentials.
Watching a PBS Frontline episode on campus violence the other night I fully expected to see some clips of the congressional hearing with university presidents - a dialogue that was largely misrepresented in the mainstream media. It goes without saying this was misrepresented by the Right.
Boeing is too big to fail. As a member of the S&P100, the company constitutes a large and essential component within the stock market as well as the US security apparatus. Boeing builds commercial jets and does billions of dollars in military contracts. In fact it's the second biggest military contractor in the United States (and third in the world).

On the sixty year anniversary of Kennedy's assassination, the
debate goes on and while many in the Establishment think the case is closed –
as Gerald Posner would have it, the truth is most of the public doesn't buy it,
and for good reason. While there are many misunderstandings and unfortunate
sidetracks, as time marches on, more and more evidence and testimony emerges
which casts the Warren Commission into doubt.

The son of former CIA director Richard Helms is alarmed at
the present political climate in the United States and as a result has pulled
out a historical curiosity to make his point. He is in possession of a letter
written by his father in 1945. The future CIA director was part of the OSS and
wrote his infant son a letter on the recently defeated Hitler's stationary
warning him about the evils in the world and his witnessing of them.
During
World War I, the Wilson administration targeted dissenters and critics of
America's war policy and in many cases jailed and deported them. Even
suggesting that someone shouldn't register for the draft was enough to warrant
an investigation and possible arrest. It was also a time of vigilante groups,
and unofficial 'shadow' units within police and sheriff's departments. Groups
like the American Legion also played a part in pursuing and harassing critics
of the war.
And a follow-up:
I've had these links in my backlog for a few months now. The
stories appeared on the same day. The combined reporting could be described as
both lies and attacking liars – covering up and exposing at the same time. It's
enough to make your head spin.

Lindell who is closely connected to Trump and was involved in
the post-election coup plotting (that culminated in the failed January 6 putsch)
has been a rising star in Christian Right circles. At the same time he has
alienated sponsors and been forced out of some media circles. It's been
remarkable (if disconcerting) to watch how the Evangelical community has
rallied around him.
Though this story has already faded away from the news cycle it will return and there are some elements concerning it that deserve reflection.

Historical ignorance and the bubble of modern Western life
have created our present state of affairs regarding Covid denial and resistance
to common sense neighbourly measures of arresting the spread.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/jan/19/ghislaine-maxwell-court-proceeding-qanon
I found this report to be irritating on many fronts. On the
one hand the QAnon people are delusional, misled, and dangerous. On the other
hand there is most definitely a cover-up with regard to the whole Epstein
affair, including the events surrounding his death. His conduct and longtime
impunity indicate he had friends in high places that were either involved in
his business or knew full well what he was really about. This does not however
give credence to 'Pizzagate' style narratives or the absurdity that Trump was
somehow going to save the children from some kind of globalist elite paedophile
ring.

The Christian angle to this story has generated a lot of
discussion. At one time I would have said the 'Evangelical' angle but in recent
years even this is changing. In terms of the socio-political sphere the
Evangelical and Right-wing Catholic lines are increasingly being blurred.
When the reports broke on the morning of 25 December I was at first afraid that it was another Oklahoma City Bombing – another terroristic act perpetrated by a Right-wing activist – or worse, some kind of Trumpite-Christian fanatic. In some respects I'm surprised that more of such things haven't happened but then again, there are still many in those circles that seem to think Trump is somehow going to 'pull this one out' and retain the presidency. (I wrote this before the 6 January incident)
