Surprise surprise, our government is a puppet for the rich Obama staffer Jeff Zeints

Also exposing direct crimes and corruption.

I’m all out of black pills and just can’t care. We all knew it was happening, we just now have a name or two.

Good job as always by O’Keefe. Glad X is giving him platform.

Quote:BREAKING: O’Keefe Media Uncovers who is really running the White House. Undercover cameras catch Special Advisor  @SBAgov  call former  @facebook  Board Member  @WHCOS   @ZientsJeff27574  “the second most powerful person in Washington” where “whatever this guy says, it’s what the President says.” Asked by OMG’s American Swiper Citizen Journalist “is Jeff [Zeints] more powerful than Kamala,” Robinson confirms “Yeah.”  @VP   @KamalaHarris . Robinson also states that  @BarackObama  and  @HillaryClinton  are still involved behind the scenes at the White House.  

Tyler Robinson, Special Advisor to the Chief of Staff of Administrator  @SBAIsabel  Guzman, details how  @WhiteHouse  directs  @SBAIsabel  Guzman to campaign for  @POTUS  so constantly that “[Guzman] is the most traveled member of the cabinet. Like pretty much every week.” Under the guise of talking to small business owners, Guzman travels across the country to help elect Democrats – especially swing state Democrats like  @SenatorTester : “The White House was like, yes, go. Invite Senator Tester. Don’t invite the other Senator because he’s a Republican. And don’t invite the two members of Congress because they’re Republicans.” Such actions may be considered potential violations of the Hatch Act, which restricts federal employees from taking an active part in partisan political management and forbids them from campaigning for or against candidates.  

Robinson says Guzman acts “as a spokesperson for Biden” as “...we try to visit with a member of Congress if they’re a Democrat…Just because then we can help them get re-elected as well.”  @US_OSC   @JudicialWatch

Here come the sons; McCartney and Lennon. They look so much like their dads. I thought this was an interesting tidbit of news.

I'm lovng the light blue icons, with my vision problems, I can see them muc clearer than the white. Thank you, accessibility is often overlooked, so if it was intentional thats awsome, but if it wasnt, thats even better.

Stuff like this is akin to the recent comet... once a century type thing.  I'm hopeful that one night, some DI folks will actually see this... maybe even snap a photo.

Am I missing something?

When I get to the bottom of a multi page thread I have to scroll all the way back to the top just to read the next page.  ATS used to just have an arrow or something at the bottom of each page that would immediately load the next page.

Scrolling back to the top to get to the next page is very irritating.

Like many I slowly stopped using ATS in the last few years.
Was wondering if there was any good alternative, and someone on Reddit pointed me here.
Glad to see some old ATS usernames I recognize, I changed mine as I have changed a lot and wanting to open a new fresh chapter.
Hope to see interesting content and to participate in whatever way I can.
Cheers to all!

In the world of "appearances" we have to give credit to the media, which in modern times seems to mean simply developing and promulgating a narrative on behalf of someone else.  I offer these bona fide contributions as examples...

Attention Please:  This thread is about propaganda, NOT the subject of specific propaganda; please contain your comments about politics, international crisis, or personalities.  I wish to focus on something that has become a common trend in major media reporting.

From Fox News: Iran humiliated, Hezbollah and Houthis 'completely stunned' by Israel attack failure, says Gen. Keane
Subtitled: Keane called the failure of Iran's missiles a 'humiliation' and 'huge opportunity' for the US

Point made... A US general is stoked about one nation's assault on another failing.

In the meantime... CNN runs with this article: Iran’s attack seemed planned to minimize casualties while maximizing spectacle

Point made... Wasn't that nice of Iran, ... to "hold back?"

These messages have 'intent' within them... Or am I the only one thinking that the "engineered" appeal of these two articles is for two entirely different audiences?

Help me out here...

Restful sleep seems everyone's aim.  There's no denying that at times when you wake up you sometimes feel "especially" rested.  Your mood may not change, your aches and pains will reassert themselves, but somehow... you feel better.  This article might speak to why.

I don’t think so.

But this is making the rounds. 

I’ve been ignoring it on UFOTwitter but people are posting more and more insane theories.

This looks like conventional equipment intersecting missiles and drones.

At the end there are three in a triangle then they too are expended.

To me this is conventional munitions shooting down drones/missles.

Others insist it’s triangle shooting down drones.

I couldn't resist adding this article to our collection of discussion topics...

From MIT Technology Review: A brief, weird history of brainwashing

The article begins by introducing the name of one former operative of the cold-war era anticommunist variety, one Edward Hunter.
 

I don’t know how many transferees from the old place are here with respect to the Paranormal but here I go. One female OP who since either "retired" from ATS or changed to another screen name gave me a parting comment in that "many think you’re crazy" but she wrote that she "believed everything I wrote". Well girl, I hope you are not playing me as I have no need for attention, stars or embellishment.  All I have ever written is true and yes, if you have never experienced it I would not be surprised if you felt that I was full of sheep or into the secret sauce. 

I simply write to help others and I also help myself getting tiny bits and pieces of clues from others to pursue as SLED735 helped me discover as to what Sleep Paralysis was in 2018 as I had SP since age 7, yet it took my entire life to figure out what it’s called. She did that! I have had nearly 1000 lifetime episodes. That Thread still remains on ATS in Paranormal as written by SLED735. RIP SLED!  

Back in the day when I was seven I shared a bedroom with my 3 year old brother. We had separate beds that faced our clothes closet.   That’s when I first had Sleep Paralysis and I sensed an Evil Presence in the bedroom closet. It wasn’t visible but I sensed evil. Back then the house was a new build on virgin farm land in Western New York outside of Buffalo. My dad, uncles and my Grandfather built it as my Grandfather was a General Contractor. I am not going to rewrite all that’s written on ATS so I will fast forward to Easter Sunday 2024 as this is all new material. 

Last August 2023 I was finally able to control my drinking since 2009 and to date it remains under control. I had a major stroke in 2009. Sports concussion related. I still drink but maintain the FEDS daily intake for a guy. It was aka being a "Functional Alcoholic" I didn’t crush, kill or destroy anything other than brain cells but my lights are on and always were. During that same time I prayed to my father for help on another issue. Dad passed in 2020 just as Covid-19 began. For the record my Sleep Paralysis basically stopped in 2018-2019. To date I have only had a handful and they involve human women who I do not know. My SP is NO longer an issue. So what happened in 2018-2019? I prayed.  So dad began to appear in my dreams in August 2023 and he spoke to me on my "issue". He spoke and I reacted and my life is better. I had related this to my brother as I spoke to him this past Easter Sunday and thats when he asked me if I am still seeing dad in my dreams. I said no, I am not. Somehow we got to talking about my SP and he mentioned for the first time in my life that he also felt an Evil Presence in the same bedroom in the same closet and so did our other brother. So Jamie is a University Department Chair, holds two PHD's, over a dozen patents and is in MENSA. So that makes two of us and he said that our other brother also felt the evil presence in the same closet in the same room. All of us said it was invisible. 

So I called brother #3. He said that he felt the Evil Presence in both bedroom closets and that’s why he slept with a light on every night, in the bedroom for his entire childhood life until he left for college. 

As I wrote before I never saw anything in my first bedroom with my other brother. However, when I was old enough my parents switched me and my youngest brother’s bedrooms. That’s when the "Hoodie" began to appear in Sleep Paralysis, both in the closet and near the door. Its aka "The Guardian of the Threshold" [see Rudolf Steiner] My youngest brother never saw the Hoodie. My other brother did in SP but only for a short time. Me, it’s been with me my entire life up to 2018-2019. It hasn’t returned since. 

My story less the Easter Sunday 2024 reveal has been documented by videotape with York University London, UK by Sheila Pryce Brooks, 2024 PHD candidate and with Dr. David Hufford Department Chair retired Pennsylvania State University. Both are Sleep Paralysis experiencers and with Father Robert Morey, Catholic Diocese of Charleston, South Carolina.

Plus a 3rd book titled "Manual for Spiritual Warfare", by Dr. Paul Thigpen. A book that Father Morey told me to buy, read, learn it and practice.

Thoughts on all three of us sensing the evil whatever in that home in both bedroom closets? Our family has NO history of sexual abuse, violence or bizarre secrets that we are aware of but we are now on a crusade to dig and see if we can figure it out.

UPDATE:

For the 1st time since Christmas week of 2018  was awakened by a demon at 6:10am EST on 03Aug2024. It was along the left side of my bed and tall without a face and had things attached to it that I cannot recall what they were. It only appeared for a millisecond as I may or may not have been in Sleep Paralysis. It was disheveled and may have been a combination of several entities into one as I have never seen this one before. 

So just WTF brought this thing back? Yesterday, the day before I went to noon mass at church and prayed with a rosary at home. I woke up at 2:15am the following morning and could not fall back asleep so I went upstairs to a guest bedroom. I was so terrified I left the room. I wrote about the above to Dr. Brooks at York University in London and she wrote back that many across the globe are experiencing heightened paranormal activity at this time along with ET. I will write that up as a specific thread. NO major stressors in my life. Was it the delux supreme pizza we ate from Walmart on Friday night with the wonder meats aka sausage and pepperoni?  The demon scared the shit out of me and I left the room immediately. I sensed was that it was evil. 

Still no progress in contacting Dr. Diana Walsh Palsuka of UNC - Wilmington. I will keep trying

As an old student of history, I’ve got  a copy, of course, of Henry Kissinger’s White House memoirs. All three volumes. I’ve learned a lot of things from the great master of modern diplomacy. One of them is the value of being a mediator between two powers in a region. If you can broker an agreement between them, they are both accepting your authority, up to a point, and you have become in effect the diplomatic boss of the area.

That’s what he was achieving for the United States in the Middle East in the years following the Yom Kippur war. In theory, disengagement was being negotiated “under the joint auspices of the United States and the Soviet Union” at a conference in Geneva. In practice, Kissinger was doing his best to keep the Soviets out of it, as Sadat shrewdly noticed (I was hoping to quote that conversation, but I can’t track it down quickly enough). The strategy of his “shuttle diplomacy” was to make the Arab nations aware that he alone could “deliver” concessions from the Israelis. If the Arabs wanted any kind of settlement, they worked through him or not at all. That is how Kissinger succeeded in making America the diplomatic “boss” of the Middle East for several decades. That policy has now broken down, certainly in the present century.

A few months back I noticed a news story to the effect that China had brokered an agreement between the long-term rivals Iran and Saudi Arabia. This should have set off alarm bells in the conspiracy theory community, but apparently it didn’t. The story has been buried in other news. I bet Henry Kissinger noticed.

I don’t often make predictions, but let me do a little predicting now. Let us suppose that, out of the blue, China comes forward with a peace initiative in the Middle East, promising that they will be able to hold back Iran and Hamas “and sitchlike” from their attacks on Israel and the West providing that Israel consents to certain restrictions. If Israel is obliged, in the end, to consent to a Peace Settlement on Chinese terms, that would be the first Chinese diplomatic coup.

If China went on to do the same thing, arranging a compromise agreement in the war between Russia and the Ukraine, that would be their second diplomatic coup. Such an agreement might call off the Russian attack dogs, while denying the Ukrainians access to the Crimea (to which, to be fair, they have no historic claim. Crimea was always the land of the Tatars).

Future historians might recognise the Peking Peace Settlements of 2024 as the moment when China became the diplomatic boss of the world.

Anyone well-read in history will recognise the significance of the year 1936. Besides being the year when Hitler sent troops into the Rhineland (which was supposed to be free of them), it also saw the opening of the Spanish Civil War. The Spanish Civil war turned into a proxy battle between Fascism and Communism, in which Hitler and Stalin could try out their battle methods. It wasn't World War Two, but an important step in that direction.

Now we have two proxy wars going on, in the Ukraine and in Iran-Israel. (Future historians may see both Russia and Iran as proxies of China). Hitler had been able to practice the new techniques of air-warfare. Now everybody is learning about the effectiveness of drones. Both sides of the question, in fact. The Ukraine has taught us how damaging they can be. Israel has just taught us how they may be stopped.

Students of war will also recognise the name Dreadnaught. The original Dreadnaught was a state-of-the-art British battleship built at the end of the nineteenth century, which almost instantly made all the other battleships of the world obsolete. Including the rest of the British navy, which meant that a new and more expensive arms-race was starting from scratch. It seems to me that the deployment of drones has set off a new Dreadnaught era.

Hi. Just Me here. Not sure why I’m not seeing the letters/words I’m typing… Anyhoo, I’m here from that other place. Thanks for being here. I look forward to some good content.

(I typed all this without being able to see it… On an iPhone… Anyone know what’s up?)

Ooh, that preview option is nice.

What do you think? Is he for real?

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.

Both are rich.  Both are young-ish.  Both are successful. 
Both seem to be in love with each other.

She is smart and seems mature and capable.
He's a stink'n mess.  Drinking.  Carousing.  Carrying on like a teenager.

So ... will it last?   Is it true love or is she slumming and needs to move on?

SO does this count as 'gossip' and I have to go to confession now?  ha ha

In February 2023 a Norfolk Southern-operated train derailed near East Palestine, Ohio... that derailment developed into a more than a million-gallon toxic chemical spill.  America's largest, if I am not mistaken.

The derailment was met with stereotypical corporate and political malaise, subjected to stereotypical below-par media coverage, and generally the subject of much foot-dragging insofar as 'what to do to fix it.'  There are at least 20 class-action lawsuits which seek remedy for the handling of this material and the subsequent damages (both measured and yet to manifest itself.)

Reuters: Norfolk Southern agrees to pay $600 million to settle Ohio derailment lawsuit

The Reuters reporting title sems to be indicating that this is a "done deal" but it is not.  The court hasn't approved the offer... so there's that.  Also, the settlement would indemnify Northern-Southern from the other class-action suits brought against it while simultaneously establishing for posterity that...
 

Thanks for putting this site together. It means a lot to an old soul. Will be retiring here in the near future, and it is nice to know there is going to be a place where one can kick their feet up and relax.

Hello All,

Long time ATSer here (sometimes lurking /sometimes a member)  I saw a reference to this place on ATS recently and decided to check it out. I'd like to extend a big thank you to all the people who put in the hard work and effort to make this site happen. You have my full appreciation. 

A little about me: I'm an artist mainly working in the entertainment industry.  I'm originally from the tri-state area of WVa/Oh/Penn but I've been living out in sunny Los Angeles for quite some time now.  I love all things that go bump in the night.  I'm especially interested in the UFO topic.  Having witnessed a cigar shaped craft pretty close up many years ago, it's a subject near and dear to my heart.  I'm also a pretty avid lucid dreamer.  I recently started working my way through the Monroe Institute's Gateway Program "tapes" in an effort to improve my AP and OBE skills. I'm happy to talk about any of those subjects and more.  

See you in the threads!
