National Bolshevism, Neoreaction, and Nuclear War

“In short, then, what Dugin proposes is that National Bolshevism takes from the ‘metaphysics’ of Marxism a secret, initiatory Gnosticism and mysticism which seeks to accomplish a spiritual alchemy to transform society – National Bolshevism thus becomes a secret society bent on a theurgic, magic transformation of reality.”

James D. Heiser

In the first instance, to establish Europe from Lisbon to Vladivostok under Moscow, either America must be destroyed or it must abandon Europe. To accomplish this you would need an economic strategy; second, an information warfare strategy; and third, you would want a war strategy.

The economic strategy is simple. You destroy the dollar as the world’s trading currency. Information warfare is the most difficult and complicated part of your strategy. But information warfare will not work if you do not have a military strategy. And the key military strategy you need is a nuclear one. What nearly all observers miss is the importance of nuclear warfare in any attempt to displace the United States as the world’s leading power. Nuclear weapons are also important if you want to convince the United States to step aside and allow Russia to dominate Europe. Most people in the West are indoctrinated to believe nuclear weapons signify the “end of all life.” This is a myth. As former CIA analyst Peter Pry noted in 1990, “a case can be made that large-scale counterforce nuclear attacks can be executed while limiting fatalities to the low millions, or even hundreds of thousands.”[i]

According to Joseph D. Douglass. Jr., theater nuclear war is integral to Moscow’s war preparations. That is why Russian troop quality is unimportant to Kremlin strategists. It makes no sense to invest too much in training and equipping troops subjected to nuclear strikes. Douglass wrote as follows:

“Warfighting is accorded first priority in the Soviet approach to theater nuclear weapons. The … [Russians] view nuclear weapons as powerful and effective means of tactical combat. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union has adopted and promulgated a strong, offensive, nuclear-oriented, warfighting doctrine. The Soviet military strategy is clearly offensive, with nuclear weapons playing the lead role. And, the forces are directed to design, equip, and plan to fight a nuclear war.”[ii]

The American side, noted Douglass, sees nuclear deployments as “theoretical.” Nuclear missiles are not seriously intended for use. Nukes are all about deterrence. Of course, the Russians have never agreed with this idea. Moscow places great emphasis on surprise attack. Throughout Russian military literature “the importance of surprise and the need for secrecy are major continuing themes. In fact, surprise that catches the enemy unaware, including the use of nuclear weapons, is as important as the total attack strength.”[iii]

Moscow’s concept of warfighting can be described as “an in-depth, massive, surprise nuclear strike, in conjunction with an immediate, high-speed air and ground exploitation….” According to Douglass,

“[Moscow intends] to strike first with a massive, in-depth, nuclear strike. This strike is designed to (1) destroy NATO means of nuclear attack, (2) destroy the main groupings of combat forces and their command/control, (3) isolate the battlefield, and (4) breach the main defense and define the main attack corridors.”[iv]

If this is how the next war is to be fought, what kind of information warfare would you engage in? Would you try to convince the Americans that nuclear weapons are useless? Would you try to convince everyone that nuclear weapons are environmentally too destructive for use? Obviously you would, and that is exactly what America’s enemies have done.

Yet, the most important thing in war is to know who your enemy is. The most important thing in an information war might be to sow confusion regarding friends and enemies. Through the creation of many confusing narratives, the traditional defenders of America could be divided. For example, the American right has typically been more committed to national defense than the left. It follows, therefore, that information warfare in advance of a world war would tend to target the right.

Today the American right no longer sees a clear connection between overseas threats and internal threats. While the left was once the primary conduit for enemy infiltration and subversion, today we have reason to worry about the right. Whereas, the left tended to sympathize with our communist enemies in Vietnam during the 1960s, the right tends to sympathize with Russia today. We see this in the broadcasts of Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones.

Russia’s Information Strategy: On the Varieties of Right Wing Bolshevism

Moscow’s contamination of the right, through infiltration and psychological warfare, did not begin yesterday. If we examine various ideological anomalies in rightwing movements of the past, we find persistent attempts by supposed rightwing movements to align with the left (consciously or unconsciously). National Socialism (i.e., the Nazi movement) is usually considered rightwing, yet this movement was “socialist” and had a leftwing side to it. We see the support Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones now give to Russia, and the ever-increasing support given to Russia by Trump’s MAGA following. Dare we make an obnoxious comparison that the theorists of the Dark Enlightenment have themselves anticipated by saying that National Socialism came to power in Germany, in January 1933, because Stalin ordered the KPD (Communist Party Germany), to allow it. Did Trump come to power because the American equivalent of the KPD, on Putin’s orders, allowed it? Many were surprised, in 1939, when Hitler made a pact with Stalin – when Bolshevism and National Socialism joined forces to smash Poland. Is anyone surprised, now, as Putin and Trump form a kind of non-aggression pact? Joseph Stalin’s nickname for Hitler was “the icebreaker” of the Revolution. Russian historian, Yuri Felshtinsky, has suggested that Donald Trump is Vladimir Putin’s “icebreaker.” In terms of Stalin-Hitler and Putin-Trump, Felshtinsky made an apt strategy analogy. It is considered out-of-bounds, however, by the neo-reactionaries who will say Felshtinsky has committed a reductio ad Hitlerum.  

It was Nick Land, analyzing the texts of Curtis Yarvin, who suggested that Hitler was a universal negative symbol against which the liberal faithful must always rally, since hatred of Hitler is mandatory for “all men of sound faith as the exact complement of the incarnate God (the revealed anti-Messiah, or Adversary), and this identification has the force of ‘self-evident truth.’”[v] What fool, however, can miss the obvious parallel between Stalin-Hitler and Trump-Putin?  James B. Edwards, who wrote a book titled Hitler: Stalin’s Stooge, explained, “Once the intellectuals had made up their minds about the essential corruption of the Western system and the essential goodness of the Soviet system, details were no longer important.”[vi] We might well rewrite Edwards’s sentence, “Once the MAGA pundits had made up their minds about the essential corruption of the Western system and the essential goodness of the Russian system under Putin, details were no longer important.” The parallel between then and now is almost exact. One might pen a book titled Trump: Putin’s Stooge. Just as Hitler imagined an alliance with Moscow against Poland, Trump may be imagining an alliance with Moscow against China – or even against Europe! An incredibly stupid idea, deserving scorn. Yet again, this is the pattern of Hitler’s principal blunder outlined by Ernst Topitsch in a remarkable little book titled Stalin’s War: “When things reached a critical juncture Hitler brought ruin on himself by not steering clear; instead he made himself dependent on Moscow, with dire consequences.”[vii]

We are not writing about the Holocaust here. We are not comparing Hitler, the mass murderer, to Trump the reality TV personality. We are comparing Hitler the strategist who trusted Moscow to Trump the strategist who trusts Moscow today. There are patterns of behavior in nations, in foreign policy, and we should be allowed to notice them. Putin is not ashamed to admire Stalin, or to imitate Stalin. I submit that Trump is too ignorant to know he is imitating Hitler in his choice of friends. That Russia’s disinformation agents have themselves noticed a resemblance between Trump and Hitler as strategists in mockingly reflected in a little volume titled Esoteric Trumpism which, in essence, mimics the dark blasphemies of Miguel Serrano’s Esoteric Hitlerism.[viii] The admission of a relationship between the two volumes is frankly made on this pro-Russian Duginist website, where Trump is described as “a mythic, archeofuturist figure navigating the West’s existential battle for revival, bridging esoteric symbolism and modern populism in an apocalyptic quest for renewal.”[ix]

Archeofuturist? To understand this and other pro-Russian terms, one needs to have read the pro-Russian writers of the post-Cold War era. Believe in or not, a French rightwing author named Guillaume Faye wrote a book titled Archeofuturism: European Visions of the Post Catastrophic Age, published in Europe during the 1990s and translated into English. The book proposed the creation of a new Eurasian empire in which the countries of Europe are demoted to mere provinces, and the new nationality will be that of white Europeans. As Faye told a gathering of Russians from the People’s National Party in 2005, “I believe that Russia must be the center of a great white confederation. It’s the same goal as your organization.”

Like Nick Land and Curtis Yarvin’s work, Faye’s book opposes the “ethnic masochism” of the ruling liberal ideology, which he says is exacerbated by hedonistic individualism. Faye blames individualism for “triggering a boom in anti-natural practices: divorces made automatic … rejection of the housewife model … the glorification of homosexuality [and a] … demographic fall caused by anti-natalism….” Faye predicts calamity, though he doesn’t say exactly what the calamity will be. Of course, it is true: left liberalism has become a mass suicide cult. But Faye does not distinguish between forms of liberalism, neither does he remark on the way in which conservatism and liberalism grew out of the same English political party. Faye akes questionable and dogmatic pronouncements on the subject. We are headed for suicide, says Faye, because liberal modernity is “based on a dream-like view of human nature and fallacious anthropology.” Yet Faye has his own fallacious progressive anthropology. An apparent believer in global warming and various environmental scares, Faye frets about the incompatibility between Afro-Asian Muslims and Europeans in a National Socialist sense (though Faye”s declared nation is Eurosiberia, with its capital in Moscow). He believes that a social explosion is coming, along with hard economic times. Liberalism is dead, says Faye, and the rationalism of the Enlightenment has no future whatsoever. “[T]he post-catastrophic world will have to reorganize social fabrics according to archaic principles — which is to say, human ones.”

Specifically, what will this reorganization entail? There will be a return of authority, of course, and a return of family power along with “the subordination of rights to duties.” He vaguely mentions the possibility of communitarian structures, “the power of hierarchy” and “the principle of punishment over prevention” along with “the rehabilitation of the aristocratic principle.” The European soul, he says, longs for the future, and also longs for a Plan. This Plan entails the overthrow of the liberal order. Why? “Because the egalitarian and humanitarian mindset of modern man … does not allow him to manage the explosive possibilities behind genetic engineering” which Faye would embrace. We are approaching the day when science will be able to make super-humans and sub-humans; and we must embrace these new creatures, Faye suggests, eradicating the “pseudo-ethical obstacles raised in opposition to genetic engineering, the creation of ‘modified’ human beings, and positive eugenics.”

Faye is a drooling moral idiot. Genetic engineering of this kind would signal the end of humanity. The idea is born of hubris, of course, and reminds us of Greek tragedy; except that Faye is a joker whose silhouette fits better with low comedy. He thinks he can, willy-nilly, create meaning on his own – breaking free from the liberal cage. He throws all babies out with their bath water; and he uses leftover diaper pins against the blinking eyeballs of his readership after the fashion of King Lear’s villain, Lord Cornwall, who gouged out Lord Gloucester’s eyes shouting, “Out vile jelly!” To be a moral idiot, and to transmit moral idiocy, suggests a blindness that wishes to inflict blindness on everyone. There are none so blind as those who want to poke everyone’s eyes out.

“The great weakness of the system is that it believes people are stupid,” writes Faye, “and it seeks to narcotize them or get around them by clumsy means – something which ends up tiring people and proving ineffective. The strategy chosen to contain ‘dangerous ideas’ has been to defuse all ideas, whatever they may be….” It’s so funny, really, that Faye should fault “the system” for believing people are stupid while he advocates the mass breeding of subhumans! Faye wants a race of stupid creatures as slaves!

Faye plays with ideas as a child might play with matches. He is an incendiary, setting fire to God’s creation to make way for the abominations of man. Having no real sense of history, he nonetheless recognizes that modernity is an unsustainable chaos, and a retreat into old forms (with new technology) is inevitable. Having no sense of right or wrong, a society governed by men like Faye must become totalitarian. It must become a society led by moral idiots like himself. Nevertheless, he recognizes that old forms of moral authority must be re-established. “Archeofuturism,” he writes, “is a concept of order, a concept that upsets modern minds, which are shaped by the fallacious individualist ethics of emancipation and the rejection of discipline that has led to the swindle of ‘contemporary art,’ and wreaked havoc in the educational and socio-economic systems.” Faye is a revolutionary. He would favor Marx insofar as Marx was anti-bourgeois, but he realizes that Marxism is presently unworkable. Some other brand of anti-bourgeois ideology must therefore be cobbled together. And so, a new form of critical theory emerges. Faye opposes –

“the weak spirit of humanitarianism, a sham ethic which raises ‘human dignity’ to the rank of ridiculous dogma. This, not to mention the hypocrisy of the many well-meaning souls who yesterday forgot to denounce Communist crimes and today have nothing to say about the embargo on Iraq [1998] and Cuba by the American superpower … [and] the oppression of the Palestinians.”

What can we say about this moralist with a broken moral compass? About religion, he says that modernity has overseen a process of de-spiritualization and the destruction of transcendental values. True enough. But is he a master of transcendental values in his own right? Faye wrote, “The failed attempt at establishing secular religions, the empty disenchantment created by a civilization that bases its ultimate legitimacy on the value of exchange and the cult of money, and the self-destruction of Christianity have engendered a situation that cannot endure.” If we are not careful, he warns, Islam may become the religion of the future. This is dangerous because a triumphant Islam would destroy “the creativity and inventiveness of the European soul….”

Does Faye wear a cross? Does he advocate a return to the Catholic Church in France? It is trendy to attack the market, to side with the socialists against the bourgeoisie, but people need to buy and sell. Why is prosperity a bad thing? On the one hand he favors creativity, which the market supports; on the other hand he attacks the market and the economic freedom that, historically, made Europe so creative and inventive. And then, with a bow toward Moscow, Faye laments the Machiavellian plans of certain American strategists which he blames for Europe’s Muslim problem.

How curious, indeed, that America is blamed for an essentially Marxist project; namely, the project of undermining Western society by downgrading motherhood. This ill treatment of motherhood, more than anything, brought Islam into Europe. Is there any doubt that feminism caused the birthrate to fall in Europe? Is there any doubt that feminism was hijacked and used by Marxism? As the birthrate fell Europe had to import Muslim laborers. Today half the school children in certain European cities have the name Mohammed. London became Londonistan, and Europe became Eurabia. And this is the fault of America? What about the communists? But then, Curtis Yarvin would tell us that America is THE ORIGINAL COMMUNIST COUNTRY. Right? Never mind that man behind the Iron Curtain!

And what does Faye, as Kremlin stooge, propose as a religious alternative to Islam? “The archeofuturist answer might be as follows,” Faye explains: “a neo-medieval, quasi-polytheistic, superstitious and ritualized Christianity for the masses and a pagan agnosticism – a ‘religion of philosophers’ – for the elite.” As for the secular religion of “political correctness,” he finds it to be ethnically insincere, based on “intellectual snobbishness and social cowardice.” He calls it chic, soft, and a bourgeois form of Stalinism. To talk of a threat to Europe from Islam is to be barred from trendy restaurants and loses its appeal in the eyes of beautiful girls. “Being politically correct is a matter not of ideology,” says Faye, “but of social acceptance.”

Faye believes today’s opposition to political correctness is also politically correct. Rebellion is neutralized, he says, “through sham rebellion.” Here the politically correct merely hide behind the mask of political incorrectness. So much for conservatives. As for freedom of speech, instead of outright censorship what we have is a media that relies on diversion, focusing on side issues and entertainment. The media careerist craves safety and knows how to win an audience through trivia. “What we are dealing with here,” wrote Faye, “is not simply the usual brutalization of the population via the increasingly sophisticated mass-media apparatus of … the spectacle — a veritable ‘audiovisual prozac’ — but rather a concealment of essential political problems….”

Faye refers to consultation and negotiation as the “scourges of modern democracy.” He says that “Constantinople is under siege and we’re debating the gender of angels.” Though his meaning is given indirectly, he appears to suggest that the racism and bigotry of old was not entirely bad; that the class system was not entirely oppressive; that male dominance is a biological imperative. The old ways and institutions are coming back, he says, whether we want them or not. He is undoubtedly right in seeing patriarchy on the rebound. Naturally, hard men will be back in style. It is inevitable. But more than this, Faye believes that a racial civil war is coming to Europe. Like Nick Land and Curtis Yarvin, Faye has nudged various white supremacist and separatists toward this future vision. While he was not overtly anti-Semitic in his book, Faye favored Russian authoritarianism – or should we call it totalitarianism? Faye appeals to the native European stock, warning that one day they will violently react against liberalism and egalitarianism and Islam. These, after all, are the forces destroying European civilization. And who benefits? Moscow, of course. And who is ultimately to blame? Faye said the blame must be put upon liberal economics and hedonistic individualism and America. It is the permissiveness engendered by market systems, he explained, which have undermined the authoritative structures of civilization. Did Marxism have anything to do with this? Faye will not say so.

As for “conservative” politicians and right-wing governments, Faye says they “have always been soft. They fear confrontation and do not dare to implement the ideas and programs by which they came to power…. A Right-wing government would rather avoid displeasing those who voted against it rather than please its own electorate. Winning the favor of the Left is the delight of the Right.” True enough! But there is more poison here than meets the eye. Democracy, he says, is therefore headed for failure, and the emergence of a new aristocracy is necessary (i.e., an aristocracy coming out of Moscow). Everything is thoroughly rotten and Russia has the cure. Multiculturalism, he says, merely signifies multi-racism. Only now everyone is going to truly hate everyone else. Only the Americans still have imagination and epic vision. “Culturally, as well as politically and geopolitically, Americans are strong because we [Europeans] are weak, absent, stiff, and we lack dynamism and will. Let us stop moaning: America is only quite naturally occupying the space we have abandoned.”

This takes us to Faye’s conclusion, which makes the Kremlin so happy. He points westward to what he calls “the Imperial American Republic.” He says that America’s decline “has already been ‘virally’ programmed for the first quarter of the twenty-first century….” Then he points to the east, to the emergence of what he calls “Eurosiberia.” According to Faye, France should no longer be called France. This is not its true name, after all. France should resume the name it had under the Roman Empire and henceforth become the Eurosiberian province of Gaul. To build an empire of our own, says Faye, will require the emergence of predators who are “on guard for a historical disaster to happen and make their prey emerge from the undergrowth in panic.” The predator, in this case, is Russia. The prey would be the petty bourgeois states of Europe.

“In human history,” says Faye, “the establishment of a Eurosiberian complex would represent a revolution greater than that of the short-lived Soviet Union or even the United States of America.” The reasons given to justify this empire, he admits, are of little importance. In his view a Greater Europe absolutely must emerge. He calls the nations of Europe a “disorderly grouping,” which is somewhat shocking insofar as nationalism is the authentic European heritage while the Roman Empire died from its decline into oriental despotism. Faye’s solution, then, is that same rotten oriental despotism now centered in Moscow. The example of imperial Rome’s progressive ossification, the strangulation of the economy by state decree, is clearly in evidence from Diocletian to its ultimate culmination in Theodosius; but this is utterly forgotten by Faye (if he ever knew it). And yet, Faye would celebrate his new imperial project, with Russia at its core, as “Leviathan and Behemoth rolled into one.” According to Faye, “From the harbor of Brest to Port Arthur, from our frozen islands in the Arctic to the victorious sun of Crete, from the fields of the steppe and from the fjords to the maquis, a hundred nations free and united, regrouped to form an empire….” And he credits Soviet dictator Mikhail Gorbachev with this idea!

Faye’s book was published in 2010 by Arktos Media Ltd., where Arktos is the Greek word for bear; that is, the same bear that symbolizes the ruling party in Russia, and is connected with the name of a Russian publishing house named ARKTOGEYA, and the Website arcto.ru, where Bolshevik and nationalist terminology are knitted together by the Russian geopolitical “philosopher” Alexander Dugin, who is almost certainly linked to Faye’s project (insofar as Dugin is also preaching the establishment of a Eurasian empire). The discerning investigator cannot help but see a connection between the various projects of Arktos Media and ARKTOGEYA, between Faye’s publisher and Dugin’s, between Nick Land and Curtis Yarvin – between Esoteric Trumpism and Esoteric Hitlerism. Why should we not discover, in due time, a common source of funding for these curiosities (as well as a common strategic direction)? 

There is a peculiar tendency of alliance between the Red and the Brown, between the communist and the National Socialist – between Russia and MAGA. Should we be worried? Or should we dismiss such concerns as stemming from a reductio ad Hitlerum, as Nick Land has suggested? Let us remember that policies of suicide do not only come from the left. Such policies can also come from the right. Societal suicide is in the air when the right and the left begin to cooperate toward a common authoritarian end. My argument would be that Nazi Germany’s policy was a policy of national suicide. Hitler committed suicide by aligning himself with Moscow in 1939, triggering a world war. The pro-Russian rhetoric of Faye and Dugin, Land and Yarvin, rings the same bell. It is the bell of national suicide.

In May 2005 Faye said the following to members of the People’s National Party in Russia:

“I am often asked if I’m racist. If I am a Nazi. No. My concept is, I am against war. I don’t want to conquer Algeria. But if they attack us, they have to be destroyed…. So I completely agree with the teachings of Russia-ism. I believe that Russia must be the center of a great white confederation. It’s the same goal as your organization [the People’s National Party]. ” Commenting on this rhetoric, a Ukrainian researcher told me, “This is theater. They want to create a Nazi atmosphere without the Nazi stigma. They are exploiting the emotional idea that Hitler came close to liberating Russia from Bolshevism. This is why a lot of anti-Soviets have this unconscious sympathy toward Hitler. The stupid will be led by such emotions.”

The quote within the quote contains as rather surprising admission. It is an admission that should be lost on no one. It must be understood that methods now exist, in terms of psychological warfare, for leading the Right and the Left toward the same end. What we find today is two varieties of rhetoric, each tending to the same outcome, each connected to the same secretive system. Readers should check out the images and symbolism of the People’s National Party at nnpr.su. According to Wikipedia, the People’s National Party was allegedly founded by Aleksandr Ivanov-Sukharevksy with help from two veterans of the Black Hundreds. Ivanov-Sukharevsky allied himself with Semyon Tokmakov, the leader of a skinhead group. Oddly, the two great heroes of the People’s National Party are Tsar Nicholas II and Adolf Hitler.

It might be said that a bizarre mixing-up of diverse personalities and causes is an outgrowth of an experimental approach to political adaptation, perhaps overseen by a particular country’s special services (GRU, SVR). However intriguing or brilliant the ideological formulations presented by writers like Faye, the character behind these formulations nonetheless cannot help revealing an unabashed lack of moral sensibility. This lack of moral sensibility is also found in American ideologists like Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones.

Was it so outrageous, then, that some years ago Yuri Felshtinsky wrote, “We might thus find out that the Donald Trump of 2017-2021 was a ‘young’ version of Hitler, and the ‘older’ version is yet to come.”[x] Certainly this statement rubbed me the wrong way at the time. Many of us were hoping against hope that Trump would oppose the socialist agenda, saving our nation from leftist insanity. How could we have known that Trump represents a different kind of insanity? The form which Trump’s approach has taken is fundamental, having to do with immigration, and was labeled “racist” by the left. Most of us ignored the left’s warnings about Trump because we were sick of being called racists. But Trump’s ideological direction of march now appears destined to break with the Constitution, in the sense of the imagined rightwing dictator described in Origins of the Fourth World War. This dictator, depicted as morally questionable, was imagined as appearing after World War III. I had not imagined him emerging before. This dictator was imagined as a military figure. I had not imagined him as a businessman. He was, indeed, a hater of the Chinese even as he was ambivalent to Russia (as he appears in the text of Origins). The “Archgeneral” would be “dictator from Pole to Pole,” in a world divided between the warring states of Russia, China, and America. He would be an amoralistic Caesar, killer, a Machiavellian summoned by the “hurricane politics” of mass destruction warfare. It never occurred to me that this amoral type could emerge prior to a war of mass destruction; that the internal disorientation of America would be sufficient to allow for such a character to emerge.

The strategist-philosophers of the Kremlin’s global brain trust deserve some credit. The destruction unleashed in the next world war owes a great deal to their ingenuity. How can we understand these people? They are not even ideologues. They have recognized what I first put to paper in 1987: “The right is a fiction. Everyone is on the left.”[xi]

Here is the dirty secret that fuels the neo-reactionary game. Moscow’s agents of influence know that the right was never serious and lacked confidence. More than that, the right is oblivious. How could the right have understood communism when they did not understand themselves? The great Russian dissident, Vladimir Bukovsky, tried to tell his conservative friends that “Communism is complicated.” But our neocons and libertarians and paleocons wanted a fast-food answer, along with their cheeseburger and fries. When you try to explain communism to them, Bukovsky told me, their eyes glaze over. After all, communism is full of traps and misunderstandings, especially for shallow people. These shallow people, these American conservatives, could not have won the Cold War. It is ridiculous to think they won it. They were too superficial to understand what they were up against. They did not dwell long enough, or think carefully enough, about the Hitler-Stalin pact and its meaning.

What, then, is communism? A philosophy, a political party, a police state, an economic system, a revolution, the withering away of the state? All the above? None of the above? It has been, from the start, a mass of contradictions that fed on contradiction. And then there is the criminal psychology of it, and the organized crime that manifests through it.[xii] Communist parties rely on capitalism, socialism, even democracy when it suits them. But the ever-present element is the lying, the stealing, and the murdering. We have seen it play out with Stalin, Mao, Putin, and Xi. The lying is more spectacular than ever, which suggests the final death toll will be even more spectacular. The complexity of communism (a.k.a., socialism), in all its aspects, leaves us in a situation where nobody quite explained how the thing works. Hannah Arendt used the term “totalitarianism” into which she mixed National Socialism. Eric Voegelin wrote of “Gnosticism.” Igor Shafarevich and Gustave Le Bon preferred the term “socialism,” while Carl Jung wrote of an Antichrist movement in history. They all saw that the thing was evil. Each used different terminology. All of them were describing the same phenomenon.

Marx told his closest friends that he was not a Marxist, that there was no Marxist dogma – a notion underscored by Lenin. Here was a notion that Stalin ran with. Today, Putin freely flies across the heavens, like a nuclear rocket, with this same understanding. Every statue of Lenin, in every Russian town, remains in place. Famously Mao Zedong said Marxism-Leninism is more powerful “than a machine gun.” It was, he also said, “more powerful than the atomic bomb.” You see, Marxism was not an ideology. Marxism was a weapon. Leninism was a weapon. Ideology itself is a weapon. Narratives, as we now can see, are weapons! And so, Lenin remains in his mausoleum. Stalin’s statues are going up all over Russia. The old idols return and are honored. Why? Because they were wickedly imaginative and strategically successful. What is always called for, again and again, is imagination. We always hope that good men have more imagination than bad men. But here the bad outplayed the good. And now that nearly everyone is an idiot, we are careening toward the final act.

More than a hundred years ago Lenin wrote that communism could only succeed if the communist becomes “a practical leader of the masses in the revolution.” He explained that the revolutionary leader must link devotion to communism with

“the ability to effect all the necessary practical compromises, tacks, conciliatory manoeuvres, zigzags, retreats and so on, in order to speed up the achievement and then loss of political power by [the pro-capitalist politicians] … to accelerate their inevitable bankruptcy in practice … to accelerate the inevitable frictions, quarrels, conflicts and complete disintegration among [the pro-capitalist politicians] … to select the proper moment when the discord among these ‘pillars of sacrosanct private property’ is at its height, so that, through a decisive offensive, the proletariat will defeat them all and capture political power.” [Left-Wing Communism: An Infantile Disorder]

Lenin said that doctrinairism should be refuted in such matters because there is “a wonderful variety of changing forms … that there is every reason to hope for a rapid and complete recovery of the international communist movement from the infantile disorder of ‘Left-wing’ communism.”

What we have on the right today is a problem that Lenin faced in Russia. Communists were not mentally equipped to govern a real country in 1917. Their thinking was too narrow. They treated political theory like a religion in which belief was what mattered most. Today the same problem afflicts the American right. Nearly everyone adheres to bad theory, to ideological thinking. Too many hold to rigid dogmas without knowing their ABCs. The right (in the American conservative context) is by definition the defender of existing structures. It is not supposed to be revolutionary or neoreactionary. It is supposed to be careful, steady, and gradualist. Everyone has forgotten Edmund Burke. The theories being propounded are now dangerous. The policies that stem from today’s prevailing theories are also dangerous. Moscow’s strategists are rubbing their hands with delight.

The term ‘Esoteric Trumpism,’ derived from ‘Esoteric Hitlerism’ by figures like Miguel Serrano, Savitri Devi, and Hakun Zynkyoku, is often used as a catch-all for certain occult memes and theories popular within segments of the U.S. right wing.” Kumpmann adds that Hoffmeister “addresses how Trump would complete ‘German Idealism; in a rather straightforward manner, suggesting that Trump’s populism and patriotism highlight the American volksgeist (national spirit) is part of the ‘World Spirit’ while reconciling individual-based liberal values with the Hegelian State as an actor in both the national and world spirit. The author seems to view Trump as a Hegelian ‘world-historical individual,’ embodying the spirit of the age and driving history forward.” See https://arktos.com/2024/11/05/trump-as-the-last-warrior-of-the-west/ .

    We are now all orphans. Europe’s already looking its not-so-distant annihilation in the eye, as America has been turned, by Trump, into a National-Bolshevist outpost of Moscow. Frighteningly, Trump is the worst-possible version of the “Archgeneral” in Origins one could have ever imagined. And he might well finish the work of destruction (with regard to Europe) that Hitler once began …

    1. Sadly, there is a deep sense to the appearance of such a figure. Trump is our bankruptcy personified.

        Trump is indeed like a walking capital punishment, for America and the West (as well as a merciless mirror showing us what has become of ourselves). And although he and his entourage are one thing, the fact that near-everyone in the so-called conservative camp is willing to follow “him”, like lemmings, is the really horrifying and depressing part of it. Conservatives should be up in arms, every single one of them, and yet they’ve all succumbed to the “Trumpists” (while the Democrats are either silently watching or mobilising their hit squads for another, even greater, round of street terror).

        And that’s where indeed the Hitlerian experience comes in, remote as it may seem. As also there, all those formerly good and decent Germans (not exactly all, but still most of them), whether Protestants or Catholics, got sucked into Hitler’s “movement”, or at least stood back and did nothing. Even the conservatives who on January 30, 1933 formed a coalition government with the National Socialists, thought they had Hitler “framed” and firmly under control. Well, a month later, the Nazis secretly had the Reichstag set on fire, and on March 24, 1933, the famous Enabling Act sealed Germany’s fate altogether.

        It’s quite absurd: The American Left had Obama as their “knight in shining armour”, and now the Right has found their messiah in Trump. What a choice it has been, and all sent, one way or another, from Moscow, “with love” …

        2. Moscow is merciless, as the Ukrainians can attest.

  2. And now we see Trump flagrantly defying the supreme court in the Abrego Garcia case. All we see is post hoc BS defaming him, with triumphant declarations that they will not comply in returning him. I told a MAGA guy: Look, I support deportations of illegal aliens. I did NOT sign up for abducting random people who are legally present (Garcia had a work permit and won his court hearing barring him from deportation) and sending them to life in prison in a death camp somewhere. And not even with any due process.

    The response I got was “go cry, he is never coming back.”

    I can’t put it more beautifully than that federal district court judge: “The government asserts that Abrego Garcia is a terrorist and a member of MS-13. Perhaps, but perhaps not… Regardless, he is still entitled to due process. If the government is confident of its position, it should be assured that position will prevail in proceedings to terminate the withholding of removal order.”

    We’re also hearing all these bizarre stories of ICE agents (1) bashing in people’s windows and the dude isn’t even the right guy they’re looking for, (2) kidnapping a US citizen and holding him under a ICE hold in jail for no reason, (3) mentally torturing permanent residents, with one guy being put into a room and shouted at for hours, with the ICE agent–who was wearing an Avengers t-shirt?–demanding he give up his green card, (4) hundreds of people being shipped to El Salvador because, for example, the ICE guy thought the tattoo of a rainbow meant he was an MS-13 member, (4) tourists from Europe being denied because agents forcefully went through their phones and found anti-Trump social media posts, (5) a legal resident on his way back to the US denied entry and randomly accused of being a drug dealer and gangster with no evidence, (6) … and so many other bizarre injustices.

    Then there’s ELON.

    I previously posted that Elon’s incompetence is indistinguishable from sabotage. Well, NPR is reporting that Elon’s goons barged their way into the NLRB. Demanded top level access to their systems (coding level). Deleted all traces of their activity. Downloaded a hoard of data they have no reason to download unless they plan to exploit people’s private information. And Russians were trying to login using DOGE usernames and passwords within 10 minutes of their creation.

    And we only know all this because of a whistleblower. The same thing is probably happening at the IRS, SEC, FCC, DOJ, etc.

    So Elon’s incompetence could be at play here too…. but definitely also extreme criminal activity.

    1. I forgot to add that the whistleblower received a taped threat to his office door that also contained photographs of him walking his dog. He was asking too many questions about DOGE’s activities at the NLRB and the fact they were violating all safety and security protocols.

    2. We see it.

      My issue is kind of related and kind of personal. I am in USA now with my 13yo son, entered under a humanitarian parole. Applied for Temporary protection Status. My work permit is running out in July. I can’t get a new work permit, because even though I applied, everything is on hold for Ukrainians. Which means that soon I will not be legally allowed to work. Maybe that is a way to push people out of the country? I am put in a position where I will be breaking law just by staying alive. Do you think Canada would have been a better country to go to? My niece by the way went to Canada and was going to come and visit me in June. Her plans are cancelled now because of all the horrors at the border.

        1. About to be out of pocket for awhile

      1. Definitely start looking for an alternative plan and hopefully Grey Knight can help you. Trump and Elon are definitely targeting Ukrainians and I have no doubt that you will most likely not be given a work permit. Unless something changes and this administration takes a major blow that forces them to back off, you should assume the worst and prepare for it. Start working to obtain status in Canada or Europe starting today if you aren’t already.

        1. I can help

      2. So sorry to hear that closing the border to illegal aliens is more about mistreating legal aliens. Very disappointing and unfair.

    Hey, i have 2 question. Why is your book called origins of the fourth world war and not the third ? And what’s your opinion on former dissident Andrei Sakharov ?

    1. The Third World War is the origin of the fourth, as in counting. To get to four you must have 3. Sakharov’s book on convergence and his role as father of the Soviet fusion bomb raises certain questions. Was he a communist? Was his dissent controlled?

    Mr. Nyquist, thank you for another excellent article. I feel almost a total disenfranchisement these days apart from a few voices such as yourself, Jimmy from Brooklyn, Trevor Loudon and many of those who comment on this blog. The radical left and MAGA-mania have taken over and no other voices are being heard. From the small sampling of ‘conservative’ media and talk radio that I have examined they all seem in messaging that Trump & Co. are doing a great job.

    The subversion of the Democrat party was obvious and took a few decades to accomplish. But I never expected such a rapid and near complete subversion of the Republicans. It is breathtaking to see how quickly they fell to MAGA, beginning with the descent from the heavens on an escalator of a carnival barker in 2015.

    My conservative and Christian friends have been subverted by the propaganda of the MAGA movement — such as: Putin is a nationalist and Christian, Ukraine is Nazi, the assassinations of JFK, RFK, and 9/11 terror attacks were all ‘inside jobs’. The list of crazy they have swallowed hook,line, and sinker, goes on and on. They believe February 28, 2025 was a great day in American history whereas I found it one of the worst in our diplomatic history.

    When I try to reason with these friends and express concerns about Trump & Co. they look at me as if I have two heads and have lost my mind. It is very discouraging.

    Meanwhile, the left scissor blade is also doing their part. If you haven’t explored the 50-50-1 movement, I recommend you take a look at their website and those of the ‘partner groups’ that have formed the movement. https://www.fiftyfifty.one/ Clearly these are Communist backed groups and could potentially grow bigger than Occupy Wall Street or AntiFa ever were. They just held demonstrations in cities all over the US today (April 19). I am very concerned that this crazy left-crazy right combination is going to spark severe unrest within the US in the next few months. I pray my fears are unfounded.

    1. I seem to be in the same situation, Inspector.

      A man at my church, probably about ten or twelve years older than I, after that February 28th Betrayal (betrayal of Zelenskyy, Ukraine, the Free World, honor, decency, truth, of the plight of Ukrainian P.O.W.s, etc, etc.) told me about some video circulating online, in which Zelenskyy’s face was superimposed over some character on a movie, who was being tossed out of a building by two guys with Trump’s and Vance’s faces superimposed on them.

      He said, “It’s the greatest thing going on the internet right now.” He then went on to show he had bought into the lie that Zelenskyy had started the war, saying, “War is just like building a house or anything else. If you don’t have the money to see it through, then don’t start it.”

      This is a good man. A man I respect and with whom I have regularly conversed. And -to his credit- he listened as I told him more accurately what was going on, and also described some things Golitsyn had revealed about the false collapse of Communism, and the fake Sino-Soviet split.

      I later gave him and another guy at my church each a copy of New Lies for Old. I also have shared some of Nyquist’s and Contemplative Observer’s essays with them.

      Now, the first guy doesn’t speak to me as much as before. It seems he avoids me some. I have given out several copies of New Lies for Old, but I know of only one person who has actually read it so far.

      I recently had some discussions with one of my customers, who’s house I was remodeling the past few weeks, about how the things Trump is doing are exactly the things Russia/China want him to do (I dont say *would* want, because it’s what they *do* want). I even docked an hour off my time one day, because he listened to me for 45 minutes describe things I have learned from Golitsyn, Jeff, Contemplative Observer, and other things I have read these past few years. After he listened to me for that length of time, I asked him if he would read New Lies for Old if I gave him a copy. (I tell people they will have to buy Perestroika Deception for themselves as I will not loan out my copy, and it is prohibitively expensive to buy multiple copies.)

      His reply???

      “How many pages is it?”, in a pretty uninterested tone of voice.

      When I was wrapping the job up, the guy told me, “I think you’re probably right about most of what you’ve said, but I’m still a Trump man. At the end of the day, I’m going to vote for whoever puts the most money in my pocket, and I’m tired of my tax dollars going to other countries.”

      And the JFK assassination? I hardly broach the topic. No one even remotely suspects the hand of Russia and Cuba, though I did have success several weeks ago in getting an acquaintance so interested in Pacepa’s Programmed to Kill, that he ordered it and has read it. I need to see what he thinks on the subject now, next time I see him and have time to speak for a little while.

      I’m seeing more and more that 99 percent of people are just not going to look into any of this. They just cannot be bothered. It’s easier to just trust that Trump is looking out for America’s best interests, and everything is going to be okay with him supposedly at the helm.

      1. I had a customer do the same. He started talking about the war, assuming that I also thought Russia was there to save the world. I disputed the lies, and he got angry. He claimed the Ukrainians were blowing up their own power plants to make the Russians look bad. He also said the Ukrainians were out of men and were conducting the war with foreign mercenaries. This was almost two years ago. I told him the Russians were the ones deploying non-Russian troops. I let him borrow New Lies for Old and it sat unread on a table by the door until he gave it back. This guy is fairly literate too, but had zero interest. These people took in a huge amount of new age/conspiracy/maga stuff all day long.

        I think one of the faults of people on the right is that they want to be able to work and enjoy a high standard of living, pursue their hobbies and families, etc. They will endure discomfort as far as being willing to work and sacrifice for those things I mentioned, but that’s it. As far as politics, it’s something that you watch on Fox or Newsmax, or scroll through on social media, and watch the good guys beat the bad guys. They don’t realize that the left never rests.

        For example, we see red states turn blue, or purple, when do we see blue states turn red? Leftists are willing to move to run down areas of old cities and deal with the difficulties and gentrify and rebuild them. They’re also willing to move to nice rural red counties, get politically involved, and flip them to blue. They flipped the whole state of California, one of the largest economies in the world. What do we have to combat this?

        1. Many good points. People have such a lack of curiosity when it comes to the truth. The titillating stuff draws them in, and they want to affirm conspiracies that somehow make them feel clued in. The idea that everything is more complicated than a round of confirmation bias eludes them. They never see deeply into events, but think they do.

        2. You’re right. It’s the same here. Politics is something apart from the Average Joe. It’s like a spectator sport. They pick a team, cheer for it, show up on “game day” to vote for it to win.

          They don’t care if maybe the coach is paying the players, or if the star athlete is doing or selling drugs, or some of the players might have some prostitutes at the hotel at an away game. As long as their team wins and they don’t have to make any real sacrifices to ensure integrity.

          They don’t want to even seriously entertain the thought that we have a deadly enemy that has been patiently, methodically, strategically infiltrating and subjugation our institutions -Left and Right- for many years now.

          They won’t even read enough of Soviet propaganda from years back to be able to recognize the same drivel coming through rightwing media outlets now.

          We, as a society, are too well-fed, too fat, too distracted, too comfortable, too entertained.

          Our heads are buried in the sand, and the Devil take whoever tries to get us to pull them out and look around.

            So well said GreyKnight and Davin! We are a non-serious culture led by non-serious people. Deep thinking in our culture now consists of knowing all the ‘cheat codes’ for a video game, knowing how to win betting on fantasy sports teams, or following the intricate life details of social media ‘influencer’ celebrities.. Unfortunately I can’t argue that the West does not deserve what is coming to it. I still pray everyday that people will wake up before it is too late (if it isn’t already).

          2. I pray for Russia’s and China’s plans to be foiled, for Trump to either wake up or stopped, for Ukraine to have victory and peace.

            I’ve often heard people say, “While there’s life, there’s hope.”

            I also know there is a point of no return. But that us in God’s hands. Our job is to work and pray, pray and work.

          5. Me neither my friend.

            But I think about the story of the little boy throwing starfish that had washed up onto the beach back out into the water.

            There were thousands of them. A guy scornful asked him, “what do you think you are doing?? You can’t save all those starfish!”

            The boy looked at the one he was holding in his hand, looked back up at the guy, and said, “It makes a difference to this one”, as he threw it back into the water.

            If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been aware of the Communist threat. And I know that at least a few people I’ve shared with have also realized the truth of what you’ve been saying.

            So, thank you, Sir!

        3. As long as we’re telling the truth, it will stay lodged somewhere in their brains. Who knows if and when it might take root one day. Keep up the good work.

          I like to think I’m at least making them second guess all the nonsense for a moment or two.

          Put another rock in there to rattle around in those heads. Maybe they’ll eventually detect that all the other ones ring hollow compares to the solid truth.

          1. CONCERNED Avatar

            And if they are communist agents posing as the “right wing” ? Then the truth means nothing to them and they will either ignore what you say or make you look like some sort of “visionary” in the worst possible sense of the word.

            BUT if they are branded as enemies of the truth and saboteurs of justice, that is a completely different matter – and there is no escaping that charge, much less justice, because if they don’t find anything wrong with supporting communist criminal states (Russia, China etc.) and this with money and recognition of these illegitimate governments and so on, then they sabotage and subvert justice and must not be allowed to control any political power at all….

            BUT this commmunist controlled opposition is everywhere and it seems that, under orders from the Center that is, they may have invented that slogan MAGA themselves because it resonates with people and in the essence, if ONLY justice and truth and charity are strictly followed it remain a virtious task, but since they mix with it their support of evil communist regimes and sabotage, under the pretense of national intrests, of the just defense of another country that has been attacked by the communists (like the Russian attack on Ukraine), then it shows that they have no interest to change their perverted notion of justice nor will they follow the constraints of the truth either.

            And since they have taken over the state apparatus more or less and sabotage justice, as it is plainly seen, they are no doubt the controlled opposiion of the communists and thus under the Kremlin’s orders….

            It is truly hard to imagine how this is all possible and that it is spread so deep and vast, but the communist Mafia is everywhere and they don’t leave one aspect of what may be useful to their worldwide takeover and victory of communism, then since they are near anything they are involved, no matter what contrary signs there may be, the communist beneficiaries are always visible….

            So – if they support China and Russia with economic contracts and deal-making and so on, then they are corrupt and evil and are helpers of the communist cause…and it means absolutely nothing when they call themselves “conservative”.

            If they had a sincere desire for true justice, the long-term KGB asset Biden, Obama, Clinton (both of them), Soros and so on, would by now be charged with treason, electoral fraud, communist subversion, sedition, RICO and anything else that would be permitted to charged them with, and their whole administrations with them. But Trump is protecting them so far, by doing nothing so far, hoping it will go away….

          2. I was talking about just everyday people, who have no idea what they are doing. They are just blindly following Trump and the Russian propaganda-dominated Rightwing media outlets.

            I also am now convinced that MAGA has been a Russian disinformation operation all along. If not at the outset, then definitely hijacked by them early on. But, I’m thinking from the outset.

            I think we’ve been seeing an elaborate exercise of Communist dialectics ever since Obama. They cut from the Left with Obama and Biden, and now from the Right with Trump. True Conservatives are being/have been marginalized. And now, maybe this 50 50 1 movement brings the blades even closer from the Left?

            It’s crazy. Someone told me a little while back that it looks as if we’ve entered a point where Russia and China can do *whatever they want* to America. And I think they were exactly right.

    2. A false move in one direction can fuel a false movement in another. This is undoubtedly serious. Steady leadership is needed, but we have unsteady.

    3. Yes, it is frightening to see what has happened to the conservative movement. What took decades with the left, the Russian strategists accomplished in one election cycle with the right.

      You can add Diana West to the ranks of conservatives who see Trump as a savior figure. She’s now retweeting Laura Loomer and totally getting behind the insane tariffs. She sees this as anti-communism on the offensive. Trump is the great leveler, the radical simplifier cutting through the economic complexity created by the evil globalists to confuse people. She’s turning into a more scholarly version of Alex Jones.

      West recently read Antony Sutton’s Wall Street trilogy about the elite capitalist conspiracy behind communism and she’s very enthusiastic about it. As she sees it, the Wall Street elites wanted a controlled economy so naturally they financed the Russian Revolution. Then in the 1930’s they tried again by massively bankrolling Hitler’s Germany. Yes, West actually says that American elites created the Nazi war machine. At no point does she mention Stalin. Nazism, communism, these are essentially the same thing inasmuch as they both essentially advocate for a controlled economy. The Bush dynasty and George Bush Sr.’s attempt to create a “New World Order” was a continuation of this massive conspiracy that traces back to American elites’ involvement in Nazi Germany. The implication seems to be that until the re-election of Trump America was basically controlled by these crypto-communist/crypto-Nazi elites. Does West realize that, in making America responsible for the rise of Hitler, she’s repeating a longstanding Soviet lie designed to delegitimize America’s very existence by painting it as Nazi? The way she talks now, she would have to rewrite “American Betrayal” to say that Alger Hiss, etc. were agents of the American capitalist/communist/Nazi elite and that Stalin was just a bit player.

      It occurs to me that this theory of the conspiracy behind communism is to 20th century history as Dugin’s esoteric one-world religion is to traditional religion. It’s an attempt to hollow out and collapse the complex history of communism and the Cold War into one simple explanation that’s supposedly the key to understanding everything. The “simple explanation” being that American capitalist elites were everything, and that everything people think they know is just “court history”, to borrow West’s favorite put-down.

      Jimmy from Brooklyn should stop promoting her as someone who understands communism, since she clearly doesn’t. Anyone recommending her books should add a disclaimer that Diana’s current political views are confused at best, and in the worst case play into the hands of America’s enemies. She maintains that the 9/11 attack was an inside job and that the CIA was behind the Kennedy assassination. Her viewpoint is closer to Alex Jones’ than Jeff Nyquist’s, and anyone following her now who’s not aware of Jeff’s writings would be led right into the trap of Russian-controlled fake “anti-communism”.

        “Confused at best …” – what a devastating, but 100% true indictment! One seriously wonders how this, call it: mass psychosis has come about. Have people forgotten all their 20th-century and especially National Socialist history and how Hitler, Goebbels and their ilk were so skilfully leading Germany literally by the nose? And Trump has even said it openly himself that his movement was about “love”. Which is reminiscent of Goebbels’ infamous expression made in his speech at the NSDAP’s party convention (“Reichsparteitag”) at Nuremberg in September 1934:

        “It may be good to hold power based on guns. Better and more exhilarating, however, it is to win over the heart of a people, and to also keep it.” (No Sufi master, as an aside, could have said it better! It’s about the HEART!)

        Trump is maybe even a better pied piper than was Obama. True, also the Left had their love affair with Barack, but Trump is taking much more directly a page out of Hitler’s playbook.

        The NSDAP’s Reichsparteitag of 1934 was also the one at which Leni Riefenstahl filmed the material for her monumental propaganda film, “Triumph des Willens” (Triumph of the Will), which title was of course a paraphrase of Nietzsche’s concept of the “will to power”.

        Trump is following that exact same line. Diana West should be ashamed of herself, and as a Jewess, she definitely should know better. And yes, Jimmy from Brooklyn should stop praising her as a force for good, which – so sadly – she no longer is! (Just as Trevor Loudon should wake up to the fact that it’s NOT JUST the people around Trump, but that it’s very much Trump himself.)

        https://archive.org/details/TriumphOfTheWillgermanTriumphDesWillens

        1. Speaking of capturing the heart, this immediately came to mind:

          Pro 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

          And just think of all the people -so-called Conservatives- over the years who, under Obama and such like, made statements and wrote articles along the lines that America was in a similar situation as when Hitler took power in Germany before the war.

          What are those people doing now??

          Eagerly getting in line behind their savior Trump.

          It’s like the comment Jeff once made that has stuck with me. I’m paraphrasing. The self proclaimed anticommunists during the false collapse of Communism merely put forth an image of anticommunism. And so, they were defeated by an image -the image of the Berlin Wall coming down.

          Now, we see that another batch, this time of self proclaimed Conservatives were also merely an image. And have been conned by an image of Trump, the Conservative, Patriotic Savior.

        2. At the end of the day, it turned out “Conservatives” were herd animals, not people. All it took was one charismatic head of the tribe to drive them mad. Though, actually I suppose he didn’t do it alone. The entire “alternative media” run by grifters like Tim Pool, Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, and a legion more on youtube and running podcasts and fake news blogs reporting Russian propaganda straight from the source. I think one or two of you who read this website are familiar with Free Republic. I took a look over there and it’s worse than ever. Foaming at the mouth hatred, non-stop, towards Ukraine, towards Ukrainians. Just disgusting insanity.

          Cheap, primitive propaganda totally rotted the brain of conservatives. So I say again: Herd animals! Not people!

          1. Conservatives with nothing left to conserve…. This is how they ultimately turned out.

            What is even worse in their cases, they don’t seem to like to define what the term “conservatism” means, so then only anti-truth of their ambiguity remains, which seems to be the objective in the first place which BTW opens the door for all kinds of deceptive means and lies to be introduced, at the cost of the truth thus being suppressed by them….

          3. And to think I stupidly mourned when Trump lost against Biden. I didn’t believe the critics when they tied him to Russia. Didn’t think about the frauds and scams he’s committed in his life. Guy was just too fun!

            Well, the older I get, the more I appreciate just how ignorant I am and susceptible to sheep like behavior. But I know at least one thing: these are dark, dark times.

          4. You’re not the only one. I was in the same boat.

        Yes, I am very sad about Diana West. I enjoyed her books and blog for several years, but she has definitely taken a wrong turn for some reason. Another writer/blogger who I can no longer recommend is Constance Cumbey. She had written some things in the past that I found beneficial but she has converted to anti-Trump (well before his new term and direction began), while she sees through the dangers that Trump presents, she does not at all perceive the danger of the Left scissor blade and thinks Biden/Harris and their policies were fine alternatives.

          More than ten years ago, I was once for a brief period in an e-mail exchange with Mrs. Cumbey. I was trying to introduce her to Golitsyn and did my best to explain to her that it’s not all about the Theosophists and New Agers. But I never succeeded. When I tried to contact her again fairly recently, after all those years, she didn’t even respond.

            She’s old and battling the problems with age. The Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow is still worth reading and she had given many talks that can be seen on youtube.

Sadly, people who have not read history or philosophy, or who lack a talent for interpreting complex events, tend to the conspiracy theory of history — which invariably blames financial elites or Jews for everything without understanding the nature of such elites. It is impossible to get them out of this false framework by which they interpret everything.

    I sometimes think it might be helpfull that “The West” falls and people realize the rule of the communists on their own skin. Maybe the best way to fight this parasit who “relies on capitalism, socialism, even democracy when it suits them” is to let the host he relies on die. After the host dies “the ever-present element […] the lying, the stealing, and the murdering” will come to light and people will realize the truth! And the truth will set them either free (from the lies they believed in) or will give them the kingdom they deserve. The parasit will die in the end anyway after he had consumed everything. Therefore the tree itself may be destroyed, the seed of it will survive as it did after the fall of the roman empire e.g. and will grow again. But maybe there is a better way. Unfortunately I don´t see it at the moment.

    There is certain emptyness in the words of human comfort, which comfort is in its fundation humanistic, and all too lacking the supernatural strength of what God can and will give to the human soul, provided of course those souls are not His enemies.

    But it is not enough to believe in God, which is the prevalent heresy of these our evil times, and that leads by itself to the self-indulgence of various opinions on the subject of the fundamental priciples of the human life itself, and this to realize, i.e. what these principles are, is impossible without the help of God.

    So then the Russian atheistic communists came to conclusion that when the time is ripe, they will use the Gramscian strategy to “take possession of the minds of the people” to the higher degree, by propaganda, deception, indoctrination and so on.

    They installed various agents of influence and communist agents into the places of influence, to subvert such places and then to use them to facilitate that communist poison to brainwash the western already divided populus into more and more unbelief and more and more materialistic and thus atheistic philosophy of life, without them being able to notice that it is gradually leading them astray from these fundamental principles, among which the most important one is to be able to save one’s soul for all eternity – and when this fundamental belief is perverted by false and heretical opinions, among which the atheistic heresy is the most imposing and more and more accepted in this godless world, then there is no turning back and no recovery, in substantial way, possible…and God will not help his enemies who hate Him and hate His Church, to obtain His mercy and conversion.

    Communism will be used as the worldwide scourge by God to teach the whole world not to trust in its own accomplishments and in its own pride, and to be humble and grateful to God for all we possess and obtain from His bounty – but these words sound to many as a thing of the past and, frankly, they are, such perverted people of this world, no longer interested in hearing them – and the more they sink into the mire of sin and perversion, channeled onto them for decades by communist propaganda and purposely orchaestrated strategy of devastation of previously sound manners and morality and so on, the atheistic communist criminals are now rejoicing in the results, because such divided and disunited enemy, the hated capitalist, is ripe for the communist revolution and will not put up that kind of stern resistance which would have been put up to communism by God fearing God loving folk, those who, as in the times past, fought the communists and won, as for example in the then truly Catholic Spain or (for certain time)
    the Christeros’ Mexico.

    And unless people truly realize that the times are evil and that they must follow the example of the humble NInivites after the preaching of Jonas, and do mea culpa and much more vigorously and the right way in front of God, this wordl will learn the price of unbelief from God in that punishment that is to aproach it – worldwide reign of the atheistic communist slavery. And then it will be known by the given and or not given Divine help of God, who has the truth and who lacks the understanding or possession thereof…. (And the Ground and Pilar of the Truth is no longer in the Novus Ordo apostate and thus non-Catholic Sect occupied Vatican, that for decades now….)

    So no matter what the Russian criminals write, and their stooges in the West echoe, this is the truth about them, and they will regret the day they were born when God visits them with their due punishment.

    Our task is to minimize the losses, but so far it is a very difficult one indeed.

    Mr. Trump made one very curious statement lately and that about the “secret weapon” but no details about how that will improve the US defensive ability has been offered…and so it begs the following question whether this could be a one of the KGB Kremlin deceptive moves to supply the ever-trusting US and so on population with some false sense of security, which means the classic Sun Tzu move….and through the asset which, as it seems more and more, is now almost undeniably theirs…

    It also resonates with the statement of the late Dr. Pry on the subject of grossly deficient US nuclear deterrent against the overwhelming Russian (and Chinese) nuclear superioty…so one could ask how is it that after such statements Dr. Pry died rather suddenly…and he was not that old…it may sound as a conspiracy theory and one which is not worth pursuing, but when it comes to the KGB methods and their bloody history of using them, and not just occasionally, that kind of question is more important to ask than ever before….and since Mr. Trump has made these vague statements about this US “secret weapon”, any expert that knows about the whole truth how the US military hardware is past due of modernization, and how neglected this area has been for 35 plus years, then even if there was anything to it, about this “secret weapon”, it sounds rather odd that it would be presented to the public in this kind of way…without any more specifics that is.

        They have cancer and heart attack inducing methods and for a long time they’ve been using them….this is not to say that something like that has happened to Dr. Pry himself, but only that Mr. Trump is way too “confident” with such revelations of “secret weapons” the US now possesses, as he says.

        ANOTHER source:
        https://www.encyclopedia.com/social-sciences-and-law/law/crime-and-law-enforcement/biochemical-assassination-weapons
        Apart from the poison pellet umbrella, the KGB is known to have designed several other imaginative devises to deliver biochemical poisons. One was a pen-sized assassination weapon that could deliver gas or liquid poisons. Another was a cigarette case, surrendered by KGB assassin Nikolai Khokhlov upon his defection to West Germany in 1954. The device could fire poison filled hollow-point bullets through the false cigarettes at the opening of the case. Khokhlov, who had been sent to assassinate anti-Soviet émigré Georgi Sergeyevich Okolovich, defected rather than carry out his mission.

        In the 1950s and 1960s, a talented chemist and poisons expert worked for the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). He was Sidney Gottlieb (1918–) and also operated under the name Joseph Scheider. In the 1960s, Gottlieb was involved in various chemical and biochemical projects, none of which was apparently successful. Gottlieb created devises that could deliver poisons by which the CIA could carry out assassinations of political leaders who were assumed to be a threat to U.S. national security. One of these leaders was Fidel Castro, whose liking for Havana cigars was considered to be a possible means of administering poison pellets. Gottlieb is thought to have inserted poison into Havana cigars that were sent to Castro, but which were somehow intercepted and never arrived. Gottlieb then tried to create a poisoned wetsuit, which Castro never wore. Another assassination attempt involving Gottlieb was planned by the CIA on General Abdul Karim Kassem of Iraq by planting a poisoned handkerchief in his suit pocket, but this plan also failed. Gottlieb adopted a slightly different tactic in the planned assassination of African leader Patrice Lumumba, the leftwing prime minster of the Congo (now Zaire). In September 1960, he constructed an assassination package that included a biological agent able to induce tularemia (rabbit fever), brucelloisis (undulant fever), anthrax, smallpox, tuberculosis and Venezuelan equine encephalitis (sleeping sickness). This agent was mixed with toothpaste and placed in a tube that could be slipped into Lumumba’s traveling kit. Gottlieb delivered this package to Lawrence Devlin, the CIA station chief, instructing him to kill Lumumba. However, the operation also did not achieve its aim, as Lumumba’s enemies in the Congo murdered him first in January, 1961.

        Some sources say that the political assasination method which induces cancer has been used also….by the KGB etc.

        1. Wow. Yes, all it would take to induce cancer in an unsuspecting victim is to expose them to long bursts of X-ray radiation, which could easily be done through a wall, without a person’s knowledge, using portable X-ray machines. (This is why radiologists wear badges to detect how much radiation they’re being exposed to. You cannot feel it, even slightly, even over long periods of time.)

          As I’m sure many are aware, heart attack can be induced with a hard enough blow to the chest. Or by ingesting too much of a number of stimulants. However, both methods would probably be detectable by autopsy, so perhaps they’ve devised another way entirely.

          What dreadful people. The KGB is a scourge on the earth.

            All they have to do is put that poison into something the target uses daily, like a toothpaste or something else, or spray it over a piece of paper, and the rest is taken care of – they are truly evil and the only thing that works against them is the supernatural protection from God….

            The case of Litvinenko shouldn’t be set aside as only a matter of history, but we have to consider that since they used this polonium “nuclear” kind of poison, whether they did it intentionally to divert the analysis about their usual methods, which BTW are not that vastly mentioned lately on the web.

            But they use the old ways very often, including coffee and pils in it, or powder dropped from a carefully disguised pouch (which looks like the sugar pouch etc.) into any kind of drink, or bodily contact with the target, using special golves that are poisoned (perhaps only one finger, or rubber bandage that has the poison on it and with it the target is touched), and of course cancer inducing pils and powder and you name it…they are in it.

            Then of course the victim develops true cancer and dies of it, or at least is incapacitated for a while with it, depending of what kind of cancer or special kind of elevated degree of cancer the victim gets….and in the field of biochemistry the Soviet Bloc were always ahead, in matters of military bio/chem warfare.

            Dr. Douglass wrote the book Betrayed, that has some very serious details in it, it is too bad the book is not on Archive.org, perhaps for a reason.

            A source replied that the source knew somebody who was attacked by a poison that was given in a coffee cup, the person’s hands were twisted by that posion to such a degree that it seemed impossile to recover, pain and of course difficulty to see etc., and only as if by a miracle that person survived and recovered.

            The source says that ever since there were also other attempts, among which one was a snipper attack while the target was traveling in one of the big US cities at night, from the overpass, the bullet bounced from the windshield but it made a round hole which a piece of rock would have never made and there was no cars the source says, from which the rock (from a wheel etc.) would have come, and the hole or dent in the windshield was exactly where the target’s forehead was….

            The source says that there may have been other attempts but in the end the person is still alive and the commies are still looking for that person…and so it had to be God’s intervention because otherwise there is no chance to survive any of this.

      Trump has proposed a “golden dome” which is a truly frightening weapon. Essentially the earth would be ringed with satellites that could hit any missile (or other target) at any time anywhere on earth. Ostensibly to prevent attack on the USA. However if you think through this carefully you realize that satellites are not easy to restock with missiles. Shooting down incoming with missiles of our own launched from satellites is not the likely technology they will be using. Millimeter wave however could run from a satellite, penetrate underground even and strike any target, not only missiles. Now imagine that we use this golden dome as leverage just like we have the US dollar as one example. Anyone or any place who disagrees with us could be liquidated rapidly and without any way to defend. Musk has the ability to launch these satellites and has hinted at developing weapons capabilities as well. Who ever controls this golden dome would quite literally rule the world unopposed.

      1. Very true!

      2. Believe it or not, Elon is an incompetent even in the space realm. Common Sense Sceptic and the very sarcastic ThunderF00t on YouTube, the latter being an actual scientist (albeit a PhD not in rocket science) have done a very good job in breaking down the fraudulent nature of SpaceX, particularly with Starship, the vehicle Musk has been promising will go to the Moon or Mars for years, much like Elon keeps promising Full Self Driving will actually self-drive “this year” every year.

        Unlike the Falcon, Starship is the Cybertruck of SpaceX–by this I mean Elon played a heavy role in decision making and design, even though he is not a rocket scientist (the civil suit between him and the original founders of Tesla even allege that Elon is lying about what degrees he DOES have, and that he only has a degree in business). Reports are that his engineers had to deal with Elon coming around and forcing them to make major redesigns just for aesthetic purposes.

        He obtained his moon mission contract from NASA under circumstances that scream corruption: Elon was conveniently the only party told exactly what to bid. As usual, Elon also over promised it, claiming Starship would be able to carry up to 150 or 200 tons into space. The entire plan is also… convoluted and overly complex, requiring 10-20 Starship launches, complicated refueling operations in Earth orbit, and complex maneuvers to make it to the Moon. After Elon won the bid, the individual who approved it… quit NASA and joined SpaceX.

        Today, Starship is years behind their own self-imposed schedule and they have not actually fulfilled much (if any) of their milestones with NASA. These include successfully going to orbit with cargo, doing fuel transfers in orbit, and actually showing it can reach the moon. Right now, the new tonnage limit is apparently only 50 tons, down from the 200 promised, and it’s very likely the actual limit is ZERO because every attempt to do so has resulted in the rocket exploding before it reaches orbit. So far Starship can’t even deliver a banana without turning into a death trap.

        This also doesn’t consider all the other issues, chief of which is: because Elon keeps making Starship lighter so it doesn’t blow up (it is clear to me it is too heavy as it is), the internals of Starship would basically fry any man or woman who had the misfortune of being a passenger. I read an article (though I wish I had it so I could link it) which stated that for that reason alone, Starship is not viable.

        Note that as soon as Trump became President, Elon started squealing that going to the Moon is a waste of time. We should be going straight to Mars instead! Why? Because, as men much smarter than I have concluded, Starship is a complete failure and a scam.

        There are also issues with Starlink that also makes it non-viable on the long run. Number one, in my opinion, is the fact that he needs up to 40,000 of them (that’s how many he wants, anyway) in orbit, which strikes me as a disaster waiting to happen. And two, because they only last 3-5 years ANYWAY. Elon’s business model requires non-stop launching of his cheap Sats into low orbit because they do not stay in low orbit. Because of the costs involved, it also requires constant and exponential subscription growth. Inevitably, Elon is going to hit a hard growth limit, if he hasn’t already, and will demand to be subsidized by the government moreso than he already is.

        (Amusingly, I believe Elon’s thirst for government money to prop up Starlink is the only reason why he gave Ukraine access in the first place–although he gouged them heavily, with government subscriptions as high as $3k or more (if memory serves). I believe Elon’s main goal was to blackmail the Biden administration into approving his 900 million grant for providing internet to rural areas. As soon as that was denied, Elon started talking about cutting off Ukraine, and that was when he first started meddling with major offensives, such as the push to retake Kherson. Ukrainians claimed soldiers lost their lives because their terminals randomly shut off the moment they entered “Russian” territory. Elon was also accused of messing with Ukraine’s strikes in the black sea.)

        Bottom line: Elon is not capable of making any space weapons. He is a con man, first and foremost. We’ve seen the limit of what SpaceX will do with the Falcon series, and even that was just reinventing things that already exist. He’s chased out all the old engineers through sociopathic abuse. Insiders point out that he even baby rages at random underlings, apparently for sport. The only people Elon keeps in his orbit and in positions of power are the yes-men who give him whatever he wants.

        1. Very interesting.

        2. Ricardo, if Musk’s intellect and abilities are a sham, do you believe it was purely investment from China that got him to where he is today? In other words, do you think Musk’s companies are a Chinese Trojan horse for America’s defense industry?

          1. Good question. I was wondering the same thing. My own sources seem to indicate that Elon has made money on U.S. Government contracts. This is his bread and butter. But maybe someone with more detailed knowledge can correct me.

          The practical problems involved in a manned mission to Mars are huge. Just one is the radiation problem. Ross suggests its much cheaper to send machines only. A manned mission would require a ship miles long to counter the gravity problem. Moreover Ross argues there’s tons of fossils from early life on Earth that could be decisive in determining which model of life’s origin is more likely, creation or evolution. Here’s the article on effects of radiation on a manned mission to Mars.

        What is very odd or perhaps irresponsible from Trump, is that he doesn’t say, in general terms that is (military secret must be kept as such, that’s understood), in what way that secret weapon is so powerful.

        But this is not the problem at all – the worst problem is that if these are the communist controlled opposition, they will never used any such like weapons against the Russian (and Chinese) aggressor as they will be ordered to leave the command and leave the country defenseless – and without the authorized response to a nuclear etc. attack, there is no defense at all…except perhaps when it comes to the ground conventional warfare…after the radiation etc. subsides.

        It is a matter whether Trump, with all that double crossing history (Ukraine) and his contacts with the KGB assets and visit to the Kremlin in 1987 etc., whether he can be trusted and whether he can be given that trust – and the contrary seems more and more conclusive.

            In regards to Trump’s judgment, he is not giving orders how things are done, Moscow is giving orders and the controlled opposition must follow them or else some may be “retired” early from it…including Trump. They already scared him enough into more precise cooperation anyway. And of course he is an able talker, he knows how to maneuver himself outside of any situation that may become, shall we say, unfavorable – beware, his narcissism could get injured as well…!

            They couldn’t ask for a better tool than him, it all makes much more sense now than before.

    To establish some kind of “spiritual power” by human means is imposible, and so when the quote says theurgic (in the sense of supernatural), and then it speaks about transformation of reality, what more proof is there needed that these are truly committed communist fanatics and there are their code words, which they mean, by magic transfromation of reality, nothing less then their evil communist revolution, and by human revolutionary and terrorist means.

How could genetic modification be made after the collapse of the insanely sophisticated technological-scientifical-economic system that made it discoverable and possible in the first place? But here of course we are talking about “potentiality” in the cognitive sense, something clearly above his capacity. This guy couldn’t run a gas station, he really sounds like a child playing lego with concepts. Only more morbid. If it’s true what his compatriot Comte de Buffon said: “Le style c’est l’homme même”, what can we know about this “if they attack us, they have to be destroyed”? A devilish and pathetic child, no doubt.
    When I feel the hatred distilled in his words, all that comes to mind is that the only way out of our situation is the Christian commandment: “love your enemies”. Love here, of course, is not to indulge depravity, quite the opposite, to condemn it for the sake of friendship (Cicero’s amicitia). What is the fuel of imbeciles like Dugin and Faye if not the hatred that people less morally deformed feel for the aberrations of the woke agenda? Here the wisdom of Christ becomes evident perhaps as never before in the history of humanity. If reason is on our side we cannot just allow ourselves positive, metaphysical hatred. The hatred of the virtuous man will always be partial. No one will hate the woke agenda more than I do, but I cannot lie and deny the manifest fact that in the face of the “new right”, people convinced of the woke ideology suddenly acquire an air of innocence. After all, being seduced by a sin is less than hating with all your heart and all your understanding.
    Isn’t it curious, Mr. Nyquist, that in the face of all the Duginian criticism of the decline of morals and religion, no one is becoming aware of the fact that, by the criteria of any spiritual tradition in the world, Dugins and Fayes are absolutely despicable people?
    This blindness solves an old doubt for me: in his courses here in Brazil, Professor Olavo used to say that of the three plans for world domination, the one he believed would most likely win was the Islamic one. This is because Muslims are the only ones who are really dealing with spiritual values ​​and really convincing people of the truly elite (intellectuals), which in the long run is a sure victory.
    Here in Brazil we are seeing a real and not insignificant Catholic renaissance (this is largely Professor Olavo’s legacy), and in other places as well. It will be interesting to see Christianity and Islam pick up the material pieces of civilization after the Russian-Chinese destruction.

      Of course the hate is a capital sin, alongside the sin of pride, but it is the means these evil men use that is so worrisome – they spread unbelief, they are truly atheistic fanatics, people with no love of the truth and they target those who have no problem to compromise on the truth, and that’s where the poison is spread so much, by the compromise allowing mind, and when the idea is hatched, is spreads as a cancer….which is the objective in the first place.

      Communism is the tool and their terrorist methods is the delivery of it. They force their false and evil ideas on people by force, they order people what to think and how to live their lives, and these communist fanatics cannot be stopped otherwise but by active resistance, and by the true warfare against them.

      That’s why they send such perverted minds as Dugin etc. to demoralize the enemy camp with such horrible ideas and opinions, to cause dissolution of the set ways and of the existing order set by God, which the communists hate and strive to destroy….

    The apostate Novus Ordo sectarian, excommunicated enemy of the truth and layman impostor to the Papacy with communist connections Bergoglio has died and is now finding out the hard way how important it is to love the truth and what happens to those who do NOT serve God and spread the lies of the devil instead….i.e. he is in a very HOT place now, in Hell, as this sect cannot validly absolve themselves from anything they have done to the Catholic Church and the Catholic Faith.

    They will of course (invalidly that is) elect one of his followers to continue the evils they have been committing for several decades now.

    The true Catholic Church is for many years now back in the catacombs and this horrible Sect is pretending to be the Church, which lie seems to have deceived just about the whole world…

    No need to post any links, as the news is spread already….and such information sources will only spread the lie and their denial of the truth of the valid Catholic Church Law and the Divine Law as well, that no excommunicated infidel, heretic and or apostate can be validly elected to the Papacy – and this Sect cannot validly assemble in true Conclave either, they don’t have valid Cardinals to elect the Pope.

    It is truly sad to have to watch so many people deceived by these servants of the devil and poisoned by his lies.

    Jorge Bergoglio, the brutal communist who has been posing as “Pope” for the last 12 years, is dead. He died, according to the Vatican’s official announcement, today, Easter Monday, April 21, 2025 at 7:35 Central European Daylight Time, at the Vatican.

    Further below is the astrological moment of his passing. He died as he had lived: A terrible, terrible rebel and revolutionary: Both planets of revolution of overthrow, Uranus and Pluto, are most prominently placed on the main axes: Pluto in culmination (along with the Moon, and part of a grand cross with the Sun, Mars, and the Moon’s apogee a.k.a. the “black moon”), and so in the Uranian sign of Aquarius, and Uranus rising right along one of the deadliest fixed stars on the firmament: Algol.

    Also, the date of April 21 – which was the birthday of the late Queen Elizabeth II – sits right between the birth days of Hitler, April 20, and Lenin, April 22.

    What or who will come next? Unless a miracle happens, more of the same.

        Already beginning with rolly-polly “good Pope” John XXIII, who succeeded Pius XII in 1958, all criticism by the Roman-Catholic Church of communism went out the window. Paul VI was even a personal friend of the head of the Italian communists, Palmiro Togliatti. Then came, apart from the 33-day Pope Luciani, the first “supposedly conservative” Pope, ironically from behind the Iron Curtain, who was famously politicking in tandem with Gorbachev and was fulfilling Golitsyn’s prediction of a seamless transition in Poland towards a kind of power-sharing of Solidarność with the Roman Catholic Church and the same old rotten communists! Well, in fact Solidarność was controlled by the communists too, in the first place. Then came the very progressive sophist from Germany, Ratzinger, who made everybody believe he was still half-way conservative or traditional. He wasn’t. Here is a quote from (ever-wooden) Ratzinger’s book of 1982, Principles of Catholic Theology: Building Stones for a Fundamental Theology:

        “If it is desirable to offer a diagnosis of the text [the Vatican II Constitution Gaudium et Spes] as a whole, we might say that (in conjunction with the texts on religious liberty and world religions) it is a revision of the Syllabus of Pius IX, a kind of countersyllabus. Harnack, as we know, interpreted the Syllabus of Pius IX as nothing less than a declaration of war against his generation. This is correct insofar as the Syllabus established a line of demarcation against the determining forces of the nineteenth century: against the scientific and political world view of liberalism. In the struggle against modernism this twofold delimitation was ratified and strengthened. Since then many things have changed. The new ecclesiastical policy of Pius XI produced a certain openness toward the liberal understanding of the state. In a quiet but persistent struggle, exegesis and Church history adopted more and more the postulates of liberal science, and liberalism, too, was obliged to undergo many significant changes in the great political upheavals of the twentieth century. As a result, the one-sidedness of the position adopted by the Church under Pius IX and Pius X in response to the situation created by the new phase of history inaugurated by the French Revolution was to a large extent corrected via facti, especially in Central Europe, but there was still no statement of the relationship that would exist between the Church and the world that had come into existence after 1789. In fact, an attitude that was largely prerevolutionary continued to exist in countries with strong Catholic majorities. Hardly anyone today will deny that the Spanish and Italian Concordats strove to preserve too much of a view that no longer corresponded with the facts. Hardly anyone today will deny that, in the field of education and with respect to the historico-critical method in modern science, anachronisms existed that corresponded closely to this adherence to an obsolete Church-state relationship. Only a careful investigation of the different ways in which acceptance of the new era was accomplished in various parts of the Church could unravel the complicated network of causes that formed the background of the “Pastoral Constitution”, and only thus can the dramatic history of its influence be brought to light. – Let us be content to say that the text serves as a countersyllabus and, as such, represents, on the part of the Church, an attempt at an official reconciliation with the new era inaugurated in 1789.”

        After him, or rather in parallel to him as Ratzinger “stepped down” in 2013, came this Comrade from liberation-theology-infested Latin America. Bergoglio always denied he was following Liberation Theology — BUT HE WAS! Every decision, every gesture, every word out of his mouth, over all these 12 years, was a revolutionary act! He and his ilk were and are working to create a completely de-spiritualised, egalitarian and miserable church, a poor church and a church for the poor; in other words: a communistic workers’ church.

          And watch this bizarre circus now of politicians the world over praising this thankfully deceased communist anti-Pope (that’s what he was) as: A humble man. A good man. A caring man. A socially so very concerned man. A champion of peace and justice (read: “social justice”, read: “equity”, read: communism). An advocate for the rights of the men and women (and everything in between) of the rainbow.

          “Orwellian” doesn’t begin to describe the devilish gas-lighting that’s now going on. Only the Ozzie PM, himself a radical communist, noted, in down-under frankness, that Bergoglio was a “modernist”. One Comrade appreciating the “progressivism” of another …

          That book from Ratzinger is a horrible heretical garbage of the worst order, and under the Canon Law forbiden to be read or kept without the due permission of the Church, because it is truly full of scandalous false heretical doctrines, among which, the citation of Hagel or Luther are the usual, but the worst what Fr. Ratzinger wrote is the horrible heresy QUOTE – The truth changes with times – UNQUOTE.

          As God is the truth, He doesn’t change and so, when Ratzinger wrote this, he was writting about the matters of theological doctrine, which of course can never change as they are bound in Heaven and came by the will of God and HIs Divine assistance to His Catholic Church, from which this apostate Novus Ordo Sect, including Ratzinger and now Bergoglio, and so on, were and are all excommunicated.

        Bergoglio, when he was still in Buenos Aires during the military junta in 1970s, as the commies tried to take over the country as they did with Allende in Chile, he was hidding that prominent communist woman so the military wouldn’t be able to arrest her and bring her to justice.

        Then in regards to the liberation theology – Pacepa described it very well that it was the KGB project from the beginning and the present time KGB agent posing as the “Patriarch of Moscow” Kirill Mikhailov (or some such code name), he was instrumental to implement this communist poison also.

        This following is about the Novus Ordo sectarian that was the seeming author or rather to say facilitator of this KGB strategy in South America: (don’t wish to post the link to this garbage as it comes from the website run by heretics):

        QUOTE:

        Gustavo Gutiérrez was called back to God on October 22, 2024. Aged 96, the Peruvian Dominican was at the origin of a theological movement contested within the Church for its ideological leanings. In 2018, (Bergoglio) had rehabilitated the religious and, through him, a current of thought that is one of the sources of inspiration for the current pontificate.

        In 1968, Gutiérrez, then a chaplain to Peruvian students, published the work A Theology of Liberation, a movement of thought that claims to manifest Christ’s message to the poorest in terms of liberation from the various social evils that afflict them.

        “The creation of a just and fraternal society is the salvation of human beings, if by salvation we mean the passage from the less human to the more human. One cannot be a Christian today without a commitment to liberation,” Gustavo Gutiérrez writes. But he defined his thinking as follows: “What we mean by liberation theology is participation in the revolutionary political process.”

        He explains this participation. “Only in overcoming a society divided into classes, […] and in abolishing the private ownership of wealth created by human labor, will we be in a position to lay the foundations for a more just society. This is why efforts to establish a more just society in Latin America are increasingly oriented toward socialism.”

        (Bergoglio) himself paid tribute in June 2018 to the founder of liberation theology, “for his contribution to the Church and his preferential love for the poor,” as the Vatican News reported at the time. However, the Argentine IMPOSTOR is not an unconditional enthusiast of Fr. Gutiérrez’s movement.

        ————-
        On John XXIII – he was elected validly to the Papacy in 1958, as he was very careful not to publish anything heretical priot to the Conclave after Pius XII died that year, and so if he did professed publicly a heretical doctrine, they wouldn’t allow him into the Conclave, but there is a footage of him being present, and most likely the KGB through the Iralian Communist Party had already enough agents inside the Curia to elect Roncalli, and then it all began to be implemented and entire generations were brought up in this apostate non-Catholic new religion – and the worst part is that they are content with it and are not willing to change, but it is not Catholic at all.

        https://youtu.be/VPAR7VOLp6c?t=33 – Roncalli is in the center and visible, so if he was a manifest heretic they wouldn’t allow him inside to vote nor would they have elected him…he was a true Pope, but with evil and communist friendly intentions, which he attempted to implement and excommunicated himself for such evils, but he started all these evils substantially. They even tried to blame some of them on Pius XII, which is of course a complete fabrication, by these communist agents, they hated him because he excommunicated all who were so much as friendly to the communist cause (in 1949 Decree of the Holy Office) – it was probably Roncalli himself who suppressed this Decree so that the path was paved for the communisy subversion….

        Bergoglio was the contnuation of this KGB run attack against the Catholic Church. He is now wondering in Hell for all eternity why he was so stupid and subscribed to that diabolical evil…

      3. And it is one of its most valuable assets. I am watching the reaction to the Pope’s death among “serious” catholics. None of them will say he was a bad Pope. This has a lot to do with the Ultramontanist problem the great people from onepeterfive.com have been studying in the past few years. I am sincerely admiring by the philosophical/theological precision with which the communists exploited this frailty in catholic mentality. I mean, we are just now beginning to understand what happened, and they were conscious of this from the start, just as you have put: “We always hope that good men have more imagination than bad men. But here the bad outplayed the good. And now that nearly everyone is an idiot, we are careening toward the final act.”

    Yuriy Felshtinskiy in his last interviews several times repeated that Trump wants to have war in Europe, because it is the only way for him to make America great again (maybe similar to how it worked with the WW2). Yuriy doesn’t give any proof of that, I guess this is the way for him to interpret Trump’s actions. My question is, how realistic can that be? I know that we can’t get into Trump’s head, but had anyone noticed anything to support this claim? Or to disprove it?

    1. If Trump abandons NATO there will be war in Europe. It will be a big and destructive war. Russia is not free to attack Europe otherwise.

        1. Your posting about occult influences might explain a lot of what is happening. There are a very irrational decisions coming out of Moscow and Beijing, and there was an irrational push from people around Trump; but on the American side the irrationality is being checked, and the news is mixed. I am hopeful things are turning toward a better path. We have not abandoned Europe yet, and Russia is in deeper trouble than ever. So is China. Of course, the world is in bad shape overall. The situation is volatile and world war is being contemplated. All is on a razor’s edge.

            It is very important to understand that Russian communists etc. are serving the devil and since they are atheists they don’t believe that he exists, but that he is the one who forces them and uses them for his evils, and so no wonder the devil came up with these occult supernatural characteristics so to say, and schemes, but the comforting part is that the devil can ONLY do what God permits him to do, and so the limit is set by the Divine power of God and not by the devil, because if the devil would be permitted to do whatever he wishes, the human race would be exterminated completely.

            So no wonder the Russians are involved in such horrible things, and again, it is the devil who possesses their souls who conducts them into it and directs their ways and orders their actions and strategy and so on.

            The ONLY defense is to resist these forces of evil by being on the side of God, there is no other way possible nor one that would work against these diabolical stratagems and against this communist evil.

            God does all in accordance to His will, and so He permits certain evils to happen in hope that it will correct those who have gone astray, but those who God protects, be they so very few, He will protect no matter how many evil souls and the devil’s armies surround them (to destroy them)…the works of evil will never be able to succeed against the Divine Institution (the true) Roman Catholic Church, no matter what the devil through his communist henchmen try to accomplish against it. That is the true and Divine promise that the gates of Hell shall not prevail against Her (it) – in Latin the contra Eam, against Her, which means the Church.

            From this follows that the main safety is within the bosom of the true Catholic Church, as God protects Her and Her children from these evils, according to His good pleasure and HIs will.

            It is also recorded in the Book of the Apocalypse….the Divine protection is the only safeguard against this communist scourge, nothing else will work substantially against it.

          3. None are so protected that they escape the suffering of this world. Further: To say everything is God’s will might also make you a Calvinist. These are deep waters I prefer to avoid. Politics is difficult enough.

            Catholic Faith teaches something else than what Calvin disseminated, and his were heretical falsehoods. St. Augustine, Doctor of the Church, teaches that nothing in this world happens without God Who either allows it to happen or does it Himself. If Calvin believed this, so be it, but this is the truth, which BTW is confimed by the Holy Scripture, where Our Lord says – without Me you can do nothing.

    Dear Jeff and Friends, some, cautiously, good news from Poland in relation to the presence of American troops on Polish soil. After weeks of wild speculations, fueled by Trump’s incoherent ramblings, it is now official that there are no plans to withdraw the American troops neither Poland nor from the Baltic states. In fact, the Americans are now expanding their numbers, in Poland in particular and they are now building a big military base in the Northern Poland close to the city of Drawsko Pomorskie and in the vicinity of a gigantic military training ground and also upgrading other military installations, situated mostly in Western Poland.
    This development gives us some degree of assurance that Russia will rather not dare to attack the Eastern Europe, at least, in the near future.
    There also pretty sketchy information coming from Belarus that the Belorussian despot Lukashenka is desperately trying to avoid his country being forced to participate in the presumed invasion of Poland and Baltics and, equally, allowing the Russians to use Belarus as a launching pad for such an invasion.
    Lukashenka’s desperation and even a panic is understandable. An overwhelming majority of Belarusians is furiously opposing their country’s involvement in any such military actions, understanding only too well how much they themselves would suffer in a result of the war with NATO.
    Currently, there are app. ten thousand American troops stationing in Poland and app. similar number of troops from other NATO countries. Considering the superiority of the Western weaponry over the Russian ones that number poses a significant fire power. Also, Poland is now expanding the manpower of her military and is now only months away from reaching the target of three hundred thousand men and women in uniform.
    The current Polish Minister of Defense, Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz, a mediocrity of a politician, however a bit less corrupt than his cohort from the present regime, signaled that Poland is in the process of raising her defense spending to five percent of the Polish GDP and that would be, along Lithuania, the highest ratio of military spending per GDP in the entire NATO. In that aspect, both Poland and Lithuania fully comply with Trump’s, otherwise irrational demand that all the European NATO members should commit to five percent of their respective GDP to the defense. In such light, Trump should fulfil his promise and commit America to the defense of both countries. The latest development would suggest that he willing to adhere to it.
    At least, in that aspect of the Polish politics there is a nearly full agreement across the entire political board.
    From my personal point of view, it is also a very positive development as I have already my two months trip to Poland fully organized and flight there paid. I have also anticipated that, in the case of the war breaking up, I’d have to organize an alternative route back to Australia, via, perhaps Argentine, or even I wouldn’t be able to return at all. In that, still prospective, situation, my scheduled flight back home seems to be a bit more secure.
    Regards – Bogdan

    1. This is good news from Poland and may explain surprising intelligence I have that Russia now realizes it cannot invade Poland or the Baltics. I was not sure what to make of it, but with an American force present, which means American air power, and the currently expanded Polish army it is more difficult to attack successfully without losing a lot of troops on a gamble that might not pay off. Russia needs guaranteed air control to pull off an attack. It is all very difficult to analyze, since Trump has shifted unpredictably.

      1. Who in the Trump admin do you think is responsible for this decision to leave troops in Poland? Have you heard whether they’re being left in Germany, too (and not moved to Hungary)?

        Or could this be some sort of retribution from Trump because Putin won’t come to the table with Zelenskyy for a peace deal?

        1. Moving troops to Hungary sounded crazy and, so far, it seems to be empty talk. I think there is a growing disconnect between what Trump says and what actually happens. Why? Perhaps a handful of sane people are pointing out the impracticality of Trump’s talking points. And then, there is the cost of doing impractical things. Money is a factor.

          1. True. Or maybe Trump was saying whatever he believed Putin might want to hear, in an attempt to bring him to the bargaining table. And now that it’s become clear that Putin has no intention of making peace, Trump is going through with the Ukraine mineral deal, etc.

            I’m surprised Putin isn’t eager to sign a peace deal so he can regroup and attack at a weaker point.

          2. That is the point. Why is Putin so confident that he thinks only of military victory? One answer is world war. We have no idea how far advanced these plans are. Putin’s attitude provides a clue. China is the driver here, and we have a confusing intelligence picture from China. There is no sure way of understanding this picture given the way disinformation is mixed with information. Add the clinical insanity of the communist leaders, their use of “parapsychology,” the false bottom underlying the whole, and the only thing we can say for certain is that the coming event sequence ends catastrophically within ten years.

          3. So you believe possibly China may be about to do something that will divert our entire attention away from Ukraine and Europe? And then Putin will take the opportunity to encircle Ukraine (and worse)?

          4. I don’t think widening an existing war is a “diversion” in the ordinary sense. If there is war in Europe and the Far East at the same time which war is the diversionary war? Neither. It is world war. But Trump must make the mistake of attacking Iran first; gut this alone provides an adequate justification for a widening of the war in both fronts.

          5. Do you also think it would be a mistake for Netanyahu to conduct a limited attack on Iran— against Trump’s wishes?

          6. Israel 🇮🇱 is in a different position than the United States. If Israel attacks Iran it does not justify Russia or China attacking countries wanting to develop nuclear weapons. At least, it is not strong enough a reason to risk a public backlash from the Russian and Chinese people. Let’s see if they can leverage it. But I am doubtful.

    This is a shortened transcript of a video about Kremlin occult practices. It is interesting, because it shows how Russian people in power make their decisions. The video came out in 2021.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cP5KN3ydSI4&t=3496s

    Solovey: Interest towards occult practices in Kremlin started in 2000. There was a person, who had ability to foretell future. And the fact that Russia’s president Putin was very lucky, was connected to this person. Putin was lucky while that man was alive. After he died, everything changed.
    Chekisty are searching for the ring of all power since 1920.
    At first Kremlins turned to Orthodox Christianity, with old men saints having ability to see into the future. But soon these men realized that Christianity can’t give them what they need.
    In the beginning of 2010-s, they started looking elsewhere, searching far and wide. They came into contact with pupils of that fortune teller, who died. It all looks like science fiction. Russian writer Pelevin was a confidant of this person and describes it well in his books.
    But all this transcendental stuff about spirit and such was not enough for them.
    At first their priority was to see into the future. They thought it was crucial. But since about 2014 they start attempting to influence future and to change it. Because events took place not in the way they wanted them to happen.
    They use all kinds of things on this path. Ordinances are done for a small group of people. I have never been interested in a technical side. I was more interested in how it is connected to politics and how it influences it. AND I CAN SAY WITH FULL CONVICTION THAT IT PLAYS A HUGE ROLE IN DECISION MAKING.
    Anton Vaino is a Chief of Staff of the Presidential Executive Office and inventor of nooscope. Nooscope is a quazy-rational attempt at explaining magic principles and ability to look into the future. It is a crystal ball, which helps to see future. (More about Vaino, his writing and nooscope invention is here: https: //www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-37109169)
    Feigin: why do they do it? Is it tradition or is it fashionable?
    Solovey: The first analogy that comes to mind is a tzar court, 1916-17. And the second analogy is Nazi occult interests. But what is taking place now is incomparable, especially looking at the scale of what is taking place. Beginning of 20-th century is an example of rationality in comparison with what is taking place now.
    I have a personal explanation for this. When you think of how these people got their power. Before that you held a very low or middle level position in USSR KGB. You experience horror at what happened to you after you got your top position. You try to find sense in all of it. And you come across people, who tell you every day that you are genius that you are chosen by higher powers, and you begin to believe that. Then you try to find contact with these higher powers through mediums, to find direction in making decisions. 99% of the mediums are fake. But there are very few people with true skills. Like Rasputin who could really stop bleeding in tzar family members with hemophilia.
    If we take Nazi analogy, Hitler was a sceptic. He was laughing at Himmler and his exorcists. But because Himmler was faithful to Hitler, he let him overlook this. You know what happened to (unintelligible) archives, they were taken to Moscow. They were all dumped in a heap, nobody read them. Aleksander Dugin was using them. But because they were not systematized, they were unintelligible. Right now, it is stored in a special archive, where workers have to be selected on strange criteria.
    So the instability of the modern world and especially in Russia and especially the fact that people do not believe that they have the right to hold their positions, gives them many mental problems. Psychologists working with their children told me that these people live in a very insecure unstable environment. They all describe identical situation. It is extremely unhealthy.
    We might think that these people have power and resources, but these are people, who lost all orientation.
    They are still looking for the ring of power. They use extrasensors, parapsychologists. Americans took it from them. They were trying to solve the problem of controlling time. They were doing everything Para scientific, occult, esoteric. They never believed in the strength of their power. They wanted to use anything, blood rituals, anything, to preserve their power.
    If you have chaos in your head, you will seek to find help from the rulers of chaos.
    Feigin: Andrey, what is the market for these people. How these meaty, materialistic people are applying for these services or find them.
    Andrey: it all depends on level of culture and education. It is very low for modern power people. The flight to Sirius and Nibiru is a must for them. Somebody who they respect tells them about their practices and that they should do it as well. Of course you have to pay big money.
    Now they use these “flights” to Nibiru and Sirius. What is the difference. Flight to Nibiru is based on intercontinental myths. They are included in this horrible mix myths of Mesopotamia and myths of Central America and India and China. The main hero here is reptiloid.
    Flights to Sirius is something different. It is a mono concept of Carter, based on changed mythology of Dogons. The main heroes here are lionheads.
    The methodology for both trips is the same. You have a guide. He is experienced, he made many flights, he knows everything and is very able. The second important concept is alkaloids. Our travelers are very patriotic, because they use only locally grown alkaloids. This is atropine propane group and psilocybin and mushrooms.
    The difference is such that to fly to Nibiru you need a circle and to fly to Sirius you need a triangle. They enter circle or triangle, take the substance and start their flight. The flight is a very individual experience. It depends on the level of culture of a person. Because first of all you need to create in you mind a thought form. And then people meet them and communicate and have a wonderful experience. Hallucinations are very bright, colorful and very realistic. This is all to it.
    According to serotonin theory, a person who takes alkaloids, raises up the level of serotonin in his brain. And this leads through disruption of normal processes to schizophrenia. And schizophrenia takes many different forms.
    Also, if people did everything right but did not experience flight and have not met anyone, they would never tell the truth. They would lie that they met somebody, received all answers to their questions and now they know exactly what to do.
    Solovey: Andrey is right. Also, alkaloids create dependency. I saw many examples. If you start making 3-4 and then 5-6 trips per year, you develop dependency. You think that you became enlightened, but your personality is degrading. You live in a changed reality.
    And then these people make decisions. Financial, leadership decision. It far surpasses what happened in tzar Russia. Those people would maximum take some cocaine.
    Feigin: They are not even hiding it. They show it on TV on their channels, about reptiloids, to normalize this in society and not to appear weird. I have a question to Valeriy Solovey about rituals with these practices, sacrifices. They might use cemeteries or even churches. What role does it play. Because it is even visible from the outside.
    Solovey: Unfortunately, this is the most horrible even sinister part of rituals, it starts to play bigger and bigger role, disproportionately big.
    You will notice that lately in Europe the most active buyers of grimoires in auctions are Russians. They want originals, not copies, because they have greater power. If you open these books and look inside, they are very scary. It is an operational magic. They need operators, who can do it. It is a huge business. There are witches, who do rituals at the cemeteries. And there are more expensive operators for high-ranking officials. To have an idea of this, you can watch a film when they show black mass. They do not use babies, but black goats or roosters. They want to influence the future. They are afraid of the future. They want to be invincible against the future. They also have a feeling (and this is about people who are deeply involved in this, it is a small group of people) that they participate in occult wars.
    They think they have entered a conflict between 2 or 3 very powerful occult orders. People in Europe, who are like us analyzing this situation from rational viewpoint, they see it like we do. But these people in Russia are influencing deep state and politics. Something unimaginable is taking place.
    In situations like these you start to use stronger and stronger means. Some rituals are very secretive. How do we know about it? Operators may advertise themselves. Or bodyguards or drivers can tell as well.
    Moscow financial and political elites have different interests. There are people who keep their distance from this. But they communicate with those, who participate in the occult. And it is growing worse and worse, becoming darker and scarier and gloomier.
    They make rituals before making decisions. They are in a special state of mind. You become mentally affected. Even as a group, if you do not participate in it, your corporate group pulls you into it. For us it is weird and irrational, but for them it is very logical.
    Feigin: We know that businesses practice this. But what about political elites? How does business people influence politicians?
    Andrey: the down to earth ritual is theatrical. The more blood and horror you have, the more successful are rituals. In Moscow they have the most popular two practices, 1st is voodoo. The 2nd is Santa Muerte.
    (He gives a very detailed description of rituals when you want to harm someone. Too horrible to write it here.)
    Solovey: Russian orthodox church sometimes disapproves, sometimes participates. They believe it is a real path to power. Ten years ago, elites were seeking power in Christianity. But now they move further and further away.

    1. Everything here is consistent with what I have learned in my investigations. This is a complicated subject indeed.

    I found Felshtinskiy’s analysis of whether Trump is Russian agent very interesting. I saw some new arguments and slightly new angles from which to look at this. This is a summary of his arguments:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOVzU7GDihs&t=2342s

    Only lazy people have not touched on the subject of Trump being a Russian agent. But the problem is far more complex than that.
    Over the many years Trump has never said a single bad word about Putin. And will never say it. This is evidence of a behavior of a dependent agent.
    When did it happen, why, right now it doesn’t matter. Because since then the idea of a compromising evidence has diminished. There is no compromising evidence on current American president, that can make any difference in public’s opinion.
    This question was interesting in 2016 when Russian influence in elections was looked at. Ex-KGB member Kalugin said that he knows, that KGB was looking at Trump. But there can never be any evidence of his recruitment.
    But Trumps behavior is very suspicious. There are litmus questions, like: Who killed Litvinenko? Everybody knows who killed him. Trump answers he doesn’t know. Who poisoned Skripal family? He says he doesn’t know. Which country is Crimea part of? Trump would say of Russia. Who started Ukraine-Russia war? Trump would say: Ukraine. All these answers seem to be evidence of being an agent, depended on his recruiter.
    In 2024 Dmitry Medvedev wrote a media post, referencing Trump as Kernel Daniil Fedorovich Trump, like he was an agent. Why would Medvedev disclose a secret we do not know.
    All the words and plans, which Trump mentions, are exactly words and demand of Russia, word for word. For example, Witkoff after speaking to Russians came to Ukraine and started talking about giving gas pipeline to Americans. Trump would never have thought of that. It was all created in Moscow. When you talk to Trump, you should always remember that you talk to Putin.
    Trump does not have a task to stop war in Ukraine. Trump’s goal is to force Ukraine to capitulate. He doesn’t know how to achieve this. He stopped weapon supply to Ukraine. Ukraine did not give up. He refused to sell patriots to Ukraine. No results so far.
    When we think that these actions are from American president, we are perplexed. But when you think that you talk to Putin in the White house it all makes sense. Otherwise, we would think we are crazy.
    When Trump could have been be recruited? His first meetings with Russian ambassador in USA was in 1986.
    His first trip, paid for by Russia was in 1987. It is all documented and it is not a proof of him being an agent.
    Trump said he wants to be a POTUS, in 2000. When Putin came to power. Russian services thought it was a good idea. Maybe this idea even came from Russians.
    We do know that in 2007 Trump started to get tens and hundreds of millions of dollars of Russian money. So financial dependence of Trump on Russia is very evident. His dependence of money is big.
    His 1st and the last wives came from modelling agencies. You can talk to any KGB agent; they will tell you that modelling agencies are places to recruit agents as well. Melania came from the agency, Epstein had connections with. But still, you can’t prove anything.
    Young man, Donald, who likes women and money, whose wives and girlfriends were either from modelling agencies or porno-actresses, would have been a very inviting person to look into recruiting.

        In regards to Trump – the main point about him is that he is involved in all kinds of pro-communist maneuvers and keeps trying to cover it up as some kind of “charitable humanitarian venture”…

        And his KGB contacts, including among others the US $ 150 million loan from Soros for the Trump Tower in Chicago, and the KGB billionaire NYC cabbie and his financial help to Trump, and so on, and regarding his contacts and the NYC meeting with those 3 comrades from Czechoslovakia, from that KGB farm project….which, BTW, what would they want to do with Trump who is a developer and not some agriculture farmer and grain etc. grower and so on (you know), what would they want to do with him ? UNLESS the late summer 1989 NYC meeting was about something else, and so it follows from this that we can ask questions as for example – what mesages were conveyed and from whom, to Trump, and why it is that Ivana didn’t persuade Trump not to have anything with the Kremlin KGB Mafia, and that the circumstantial evidence and supporting facts about her point to the conclusion that she was deeply involved in his resuitment and that it was most likely from the beginning based on ideolgical alignment of his with the communist cause…and not just some kind of blackmail (which is still possible and most likely the case, as a KGB safeguard).

        By their fruits ye shall know them – says Our Lord, and so you will never get a concrete evidence that Trump is a KGB agent (there would be a thousand people executed in the KGB for that kind of operational breach), but we don’t need any of this anyway, it is what he DOES, including the WH Zelensky fiasco and what followed, and what he does now, and how he’s not willing to go after traitors as Biden, Clintons, Mayorkas, and the rest of them….and Soros of course etc.

        In the sense of the communist worldwide domination strategy, Trump is no longer a mystery, he is helping them to achieve it and will continue in it, no doubt, as the orders all come from Moscow and Trump must obey them or else !

        1. Trump is an adventurist who is often erratic and scattered. He is not a reliable person, even to the Russians. Most of Russia’s friends are by nature unreliable. It’s why they have not won yet.

            But he doesn’t make the decisions, they do, he has to follow them or he and his entire family are finished – Moscow may have had even supplied him with the film footage, while he was in Kremlin in 1987, how they dealt with Penkovkiy and how they cremated him alive – there is no better persuasion then to show the subject of recruitment how serious these communist monsters are about their victory and that an individual counts for nothing in the strategy and operations, it is the whole apparatus and the Party that is the most important and derisive element of it and all is and must remain subject to the leadership….or the Penkivskiy “treatment” is the result. Trump has no choice and his mental capabilities or deficiencies mean nothing to the Kremlin KGB Mafia – he has to obey, or else he will be retired (and his family etc.) – and he knows that very well.

          2. I think you are mistaken. Trump is President. Whatever his relationship with Russia, he has his own nuclear button. This is something his Russian friends are painfully aware of. Moscow’s “friends” in the White House have let them down before. Trump is an open question. You cannot blackmail someone who can nuke you, even if those nukes are of questionable status. Trump has not pulled out of NATO so far. I think he might, but he would wreck himself by doing it and I think this fact has dawned on him. Is Trump willing to commit suicide for Putin? Tell me how this works? Why would he?

            He believes in the communist cause, that;s why, he is one of them. If he wasn’t, why would he have so many contacts with them and why would he go to the Kremlin to deal with them while the openly communist era was still on ? He uses the communist salute, the clenched fist, quite often, no matter how they try to camouflage it with that ridiculous term “power salute (or some such thing)”, he is one of them because otherwise he would have some kind of limit on his conscience and would have realized that he has to come clean and begin to resist them in full, and he is not doing that – if he was honest, Biden and Obama and Soros and the Clintons and the whole CPUSA Democrat Party would be under the criminal charge of communist subversion and electoral fraud, and he would make them pay – and he’s not even able to take care of some communist judges that BIden and Obama put there as they sabotage Trump’s agenda…it is all working together, pre-conceived and ready to deliver the results, the final result.

          4. I think Trump is not a believer in political movements. He works very hard to believe in himself. He doesn’t have the bandwidth to believe in communism. Seeing inside someone’s head is a psychic trick. We can only look at the outward person, and interpret his nature from that. Trump doesn’t know what communism is about. He does not care. Many KGB agents are recruited by money or ego or sex, etc. Trump was fed these things. He is a person of appetite, not philosophy.

    Trump Administration’s top science official claimed that the United States now possesses technology that can “manipulate time and space” and “leave distance annihilated.”

    Michael Kratsios, Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, made the striking statements on April 14 during his keynote address at the Endless Frontiers Retreat in Austin.Michael Kratsios, Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, made the striking statements on April 14 during his keynote address at the Endless Frontiers Retreat in Austin.

        It may be part of the scheme to supply the concurring crowd with the additonal confirmation of what Trump attempted to say. It doesn’t mean that they had not come up with something important but that they may such a difficulty saying publicly what it is, at least in general terms – that is not the most forthcoming administration they were promising to be….we will see, when the time comes.

      I don’t know if it is a coincidence, but Valeriy Solovey in a recent video mentioned that there were some successful experiments by Soviet KGB with controlling time. Their theory was that time is not linear and is a cultural concept. You can be in the past present and future at the same time. During their experiments they could not go into the future, but could go back in time. All notes were destroyed. He said that USA took after them in these experiments. I do not insist that this is true, just interesting.

      1. Eric Voegelin developed his theory of history around the idea that history cannot be understood as a sequence of development, in time. Culture is outside time. He said something very similar about time and meaning that these experiments may suggest (if they are real).
