It's not hopium. It's not goalpost shifting.

Some of us have been saying it for quite a while ...

"In short, the Trial of Donald Trump IS his campaign.

We know it. He knows it. And you can bet your rapidly-declining bottom dollar that the subversive enemy knows it as well.

Which begs the question, why are they going through with all this song and dance anyway? Why put forward the very narratives—the very storylines that will ultimately undo them?

Because, when trapped by a superior player, all the Finite Player can do is play out the moves left to him on the Game Board, and do so with the hope that the Infinite Player will make a catastrophic mistake that could trigger a Crisis Cascade that removes his advantage, and ultimately undoes him.

Good luck to them, on that count."

Today on Badlands Media, Matthew Ehret makes his feature debut with a banger exploring the engineered corruption of the NATO alliance, and a rising bloc in the east that threatens it.

The Sovereign Alliance is very real, and is growing very powerful.

If you're looking for a brief timeline of events regarding the NPR train wreck, observe:

- Long-time veteran journalist makes blanket statement about divisive and untenable state of mainstream media, including his own outlet, NPR

- Said outlet responds to accusations of political bias, censorship and social engineering by suspending their own journalist making such claims, thereby proving his point

- CEO of said outlet goes viral for pointing to the First Amendment as "the number one challenge" in the establishment's fight against disinformation (also known as alternative points of view and free thinking)

- CEO's TED talk goes viral in which she warns about the dangers of adhering to the truth, saying, "Our reverence for the truth might be a distraction that’s getting in the way of finding common ground and getting things done.”

If you think this cascading exposure of the Media Industrial Complex is anything other than a controlled demolition, you haven't been paying attention.

London Bridge is falling down, along with [their] whole corrupt system:

Observe a fascinating Narrative deployment coming out of the IMF this week, which I don't think was targeted at us.

In essence, we've got one of the major criminal enterprises in the world (Central Banks,) sounding the warning that the Biden Administration's reckless spending and money printing are not only wrecking the us dollar, but the Eurodollar it underpins, thereby threatening the stability of all fiat currencies, and in an election year.

ZH points out that this "benchmark report" says the quiet part out loud, but I think it goes even further than that, and represents the establishment attempting to send out warning flares to other heads of the Hegelian Hydra.

This tells us two things:

1) The World Banks are not all on the same page when it comes to 2024 fiscal policy.

2) Theories on the economic accelerationism inherent in financial readings of Operation Warp speed hold water.

Tonight on the Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold, Just Human and I discuss the Face-Saving Kayfabe of the Israel-Iran crisis, the US border narrative, disastrous polling for the establishment and Trump Trials.

I know because I've been to the future.

Making my way through the latest Spotlight interview with X22 Report and Devin Nunes. It's a good one.

Couple of things that jump out to me:

Nunes' references to the channels/groups that have been fighting an uphill battle in the censorship age, only allowed to find traction on Rumble so far, but that dam will eventually break.

Additionally, as I was saying a couple of weeks ago, the "shorting" of DWAC and now DJT stock is being done in coordination between institutional investors and the Media Industrial Complex. The only thing holding that tide back are retail investors, so it should be seen less as an investment and more as an asymmetric battlefield.

Shorting is a finite strategy that will ultimately bleed Deep State hedge funds dry, as they can't compete with the sheer volume of retail, not because we're looking for profit, but because we're investing in an ideology, and those who represent it on the national and world stage.

It's an Infinite Game.

Cultural Heretics turns double digits today!

Our 10th episode kicks off at 2pm ET, when Julians Rum and I will continue to take a blow torch to Clown World.

Check it out, if you haven't.

I call it a War of Stories more often than an Information War for a reason.

Layering the War of Stories refrain over 5GW lends one a better understanding of some of the more asymmetric--and therefore, effective--narrative deployments by the good guys.

To wit, whatever you think of Mike Johnson (and I would guess it's nothing good right now,) his recent appearance alongside Donald Trump and his references to being a "wartime Speaker" are seismic developments for those of us looking for hints as to the next chapter in the story.

Under this framing, it's possible to look at both Johnson and his America First opposition in Congress (MTG, Gaetz, Boebert,) as helping to push the MAGA agenda forward, even while making mass psychological sacrifices along the way.

Everyone is playing a role. We don't have to determine who's on what side. We only need to observe the net effects of their deployments.

Johnson has damaged the Uniparty this week, wittingly or unwittingly.

And I feel fine.

When you reframe all of these headlines that are catastrophic for Biden as being table-setters for the return of Donald Trump, you begin to recognize them for what they are: SPOILERS.

Biden is becoming known as a chaos agent either wittingly or unwittingly inflating away the energy of the US economy, emboldening US enemies while driving former allies away and endangering the very sovereignty of the nation by refusing to acknowledge its own borders.

Trump is known for one thing above all else: deal-making.

Trump planted the narrative seeds during his first term, Biden is watering them during his second. All we're waiting on is the harvest.

We've been told we're going to like how this movie ends, but that doesn't stop many from dooming out and black-pilling the whole way through the second act, which is always the one fraught with the most peril, danger and despair.

You can't have the high without experiencing the low.

"When you know the way broadly, you can see it in all things."

The twin stories dominating the news cycle at present are the Trump Witch Hunt and the Israel-Iran crisis cascade, which has me trying to zoom out and take in the big picture that ties both of them together.

It's Narrative Warfare.

This might sound obvious to Anons and Truthers, who tend to think of things in terms of narrative deployments and 5th-gen warfare--concepts that are almost entirely alien to the normie layers of the Collective Mind. But I think the War of Stories has begun to reach a series of inflection points that are rendering such complex subjects clear to more than ever.

In the Trump Trial, normies know the establishment doesn't care whether or not Trump is guilty of serious crimes; all they care about is whether or not they can stop him from appearing on the ballot.

Similarly, the same normies are being told Israel vs. Iran is all about saving face, not about achieving ends.

Their own Narrative Deployments are being used to expose them.

It's all about the story.

"They want controlled opposition. They don't want uncontrolled opposition. When you have uncontrolled opposition, you get a natural sifting process wherein the best ideas tend to win out."

The establishment fears decentralization because it leads to truth, and Donald Trump is its champion in the War of Stories.

Chris Paul and I discuss:

"Does the Biden Admin actually have any control over Ukraine and what Ukraine attacks? Because if they don't, what is Ukraine going to do between now and November?"

Just Human and I discuss the Prussian Proxy Paradox the Biden Admin and Globalists are caught in right now.

From the Q Op to Trump, Tesla to Bitcoin, asymmetric power projection is the key to combatting entrenched power structures.

To wit ... you're probably going to be seeing a LOT of news about the Bitcoin halving over the next week and change.

For anyone in the Truth Community who's new to the concept, or who hasn't yet done their own deep dive, I attempted to bridge the gap between these First Principles worlds.

Truth is much stranger than fiction. And more encouraging.

In honor of the Bitcoin Halving, Patriots in Progress just had a new feature published today connecting decentralization to both Jesus & the Bible as well as the American Revolution.

And it actually makes sense.

Check it out.

The reason we divide almost all deployments in the Info War into Actual & Narrative components is because both tend to be threaded throughout the news cycle.

While Narrative Deployments dominate the War of Stories, provoke and manipulate public mandate (for better and worse,) and alternatively attempt to free and control the Collective Mind, the Actuals are often disguised by said Narratives.

One of the most difficult and yet, necessary adjustments to make to one's cognitive cypher when it comes to analyzing and observing the Info War, however, is in recognizing that the most damaging Narratives tend to be afflicting the Deep State Regime, which means applying Bicameral readings to the Actuals avails us well when attempting to reconcile patriot control on an Actual basis to the obvious Narrative damage afflicting the enemy.

Patriots are going to drive beneficial Narratives no matter the underlying Actuals. Take a look under the surface, and the truth is often even more encouraging.

Contrary to other reports, memes, lulz, and Iran State Media... Israel's strike into Iran days ago was successful. They hit their targets: the Air Defense systems around the nuclear facilities .

I suspect they will hit the nuclear facilities soon.

And I believe they must. It must be Israel who destroys the nuclear facilities because it was Israel who gave Iran what it needed to create their nuclear program to begin with.

Dr Frankenstein must kill his monster.

You're watching the systematic destruction of the Old Guard, and it's largely being implemented by their own hand, by hook, by crook ... or by both.

Maher is Hollywood establishment.

If you dive down any of the rabbit holes he just recently began massaging into the smooth-brained ideologues who consooom the newspeak masquerading as cultural commentary him and his ilk have at the very least turned a blind eye to in recent years, you'll come away with a small inkling of why Anons and Truthers reserve such disdain for this class of protectors desperately attempting to rebrand themselves as exposers.

All that said ... Maher's public about-face has been both carefully crafted, timed, and planned. The question is, who has it been planned by?

Is this the case of rats fleeing a sinking ship ahead of the most consequential election cycle in American history (since the last one,) or proxy puppets dancing to the tune of different composers?

Very slowly ... and then all at once.

"The worst possible crimes have been committed, at scale, intentionally by the most powerful people in our country, and I'll be damned if I'm just going to back off and forgive and forget on this."

Chris Paul and I discussed restoring the true Rule of Law to the United States.

Deep State pedophiles most affected.

"Trump doesn't talk about treaties. He talks about Sovereignty and First Principles approaches ... multi-polarity."

Despite western gaslighting that it's an extreme position taken by China, Russia and MAGA, polling data out of the EU demonstrates that sovereignty and nationalism is on the rise worldwide.
