On Saturday, former US First Lady Hillary Clinton called for increased federal regulation of the internet and repealing Section 230. “If the platforms… don’t moderate and monitor the content, we lose total control,” she said, raising the question of who “we” represents in that statement.

The recent purge of YouTube accounts, including those from Mark Sleboda, Rachel Blevins, Glenn Diesen, DD Geopolitics, Fiorella Isabel, Larry Johnson, and Eva K. Bartlett, it is clear that the Western leaders are scared of their populations finding out the truth about their policies and actions.

It has been a year of erasing a people, systematically, ruthlessly and unrelentingly. A massacre here and another there. 500 killed yesterday and ‘only’ 140 today.

It has been a year of obliterating a culture, an identity and a collective memory. A year of levelling universities, libraries and museums. A year of burning archives, photographs and centuries-old manuscripts. A year of bombing mosques and churches.

It has been a year of rendering the land uninhabitable, inch by inch. An olive orchard bulldozed here and a water treatment plant bombed there.

Emmanuel Macron had worked as an investment banker at Rothschild & Cie Banque between 2008 and 2012. Recruited at the end of 2008, Macron was promoted to a partner with the bank in 2010. Macron earned about €2.9 million while working for the Rothschilds, according to Financial Times.

French President Emmanuel Macron, who has been nicknamed a "president of the rich," has given a nod to tax increases on wealthy individuals and big companies. The New York Times says the president "has vociferously opposed tax increases," but French PM Michel Barnier said there is no other choice for solving France’s widening budget deficit problem.

How Did Macron Earn His Nickname and How is He Linked to Rothschild Banking Family?

A few days after the Hamas breakout from Gaza last October 7, I raised the question of how far Israel might be permitted to advance along the road to moral turpitude. After almost a year now, there is no doubt that the answer is: a very long way indeed. 

Diplomacy and people-to-people exchanges can play a big role in securing global stability amid geopolitical and trade tensions, said former Irish prime minister Bertie Ahern.

Responding to a question about the European Commission's additional tariffs on made-in-China electric vehicles, the former Irish prime minister, who was in office from 1997 to 2008, said: "I know that at times it is a bit difficult, but I think it's important that people keep talking, keep diplomacy, keep working, keep explaining each other's positions, and hopefully that (China-Europe relations) can be enhanced and can grow."

AS THE MOST UNIMPORTANT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION SINCE HENRY THE VIII IS BEING FOUGHT BETWEEN TWO CHEEKS OF AN AMERICAN BUTT — AN ELECTION THE RESULT OF WHICH MAY NOT CHANGE THE AMERICAN DEEP STATE GOAL TO DESTROY ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT COMPLY TO ITS AIM OF OWNING THE PLANET, THE PRICE OF OIL IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN HUMAN LIVES…

October 7 did not occur in a vacuum. It was the result of decades long Israeli occupation, never ending violence and oppression of Palestinians. The pressure cooker exploded!

A slightly updated post from December 19, 2023

Supporters of Zionism highlight the horrors of October 7 , ‘never again’ to divert attention from the continuing genocide  in Gaza inflicted by Israel. Our politicians and media cooperate in this diversionary  tactic. We are encouraged to turn away from the unspeakable Israeli inflicted atrocities and war crimes.

The European Union was founded not by Europeans, but by the United States and the United Kingdom to better control them. The European Commission (formerly called the High Authority) is the unelected administration responsible for imposing their will on the Member States. In recent years, it has managed to expand the Commission’s powers to the detriment of the sovereignty of the Member States without changing anything in the treaties. Following this same line, Michel Barnier is bringing the American Democrats and the fascist faction of Israel into the French government.

Control over and the effective use of the online space has proven crucial over the past two US election cycles, with a groundswell of pro-Trump memes helping propel the candidate to victory in 2016, and unprecedented censorship of a damaging story about Hunter Biden by tech companies aiding Joe Biden in his quest for the White House in 2020.

Former first lady, secretary of state and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has called on social media companies to ramp up the moderation and monitoring of content on their platforms if the powers that be want to maintain control of the information space.

Love me some Pepe. Pepe Escobar and first met last December, during my first trip to Moscow. We were instant friends. When I arrived in Moscow in the midst of a record-breaking snowstorm, I was standing in line waiting to check in to the hotel and noticed that the man in front of me looked remarkably like Pepe Escobar. The man turned, looked at me, and then said, “Oh my God! You’re Larry Johnson.” And I said, “You look like Pepe Escobar.” He laughed with his iconic good cheer and we immediately agreed to meet for drinks and a snack. This was the birth of a dear friendship.

Australia has always been aligned with military empires: first the British Empire and now that of the USA. In the current era this alignment is misguided. It comes with enormous social and economic costs and does not protect us from current threats – indeed it makes us more of a target. There are alternatives, and we can work together towards them.

Americans  grow up in a political culture in which many of them continue to believe into adulthood certain assumptions about America’s place in the world.

Chief among these is that U.S. motives abroad are to spread and defend democracy rather than to impose its economic and geostrategic interests, often through extreme violence. 

Consortium News is dedicated to challenging these widely-believed myths about America with factual reporting. 

Minds can be so poisoned, though, that a publication that does this is unlikely to be seen as genuinely trying to get at the truth, but rather as being an agent of an American enemy.
