  1. Taibbi has always been a Russian asset dating back to the years he lived in Moscow. He has devoted the last few years swaying the left with disinformation that Russian election interference was a hoax culminating in his collaboration with Elon Musk

  2. Good grief, journalism has gone to hell because it's corporate owned. They hire suck-ups and fire ethical journalists. That's what has happened to journalism in this counry; it's not the fault of individual journalists.

  3. I'm sorry I just can't take that lying down! National Socialist German Workers' Party, are left wing all day long. Do some research! The Taliban is right wing the Nazis are left wing.

  4. All of these same government agencies, politicians and news organizations have been working together since 2016 trying to destroy Trump. They spent the entire 4 years while he was in office along with billions of taxpayers dollars launching fruitless investigations trying to overturn the election results. Now him and many of his supporters are being charged with insurrection and domestic terrorism for even questioning the 2020 election results. They're doing anything they can to keep him from running in 2024, because they know he will win. And many on the left are celebrating this because they were told "Orange Man Bad". You really should be asking "Why are all these powerful elites so afraid of one man"?

  5. The American Stasi employs hundreds of thousands and it's existence is little know. Character assassination and harassment are their stock in trade. They possess all the resources America has to offer. To the AS the rule of law means nothing. City police, the local sheriff and your state patrol are under the thumb of the American Stasi. They are essentially a criminal organization. To take the AS oath means you immediately lose your credibility and integrity to accomplish the goals of the AS. You become a Construct of the American Stasi and you live their rules. Your dreams and desires are denied. Those that take orders are discouraged from thinking.

  6. Good people are fighting back against demonic lies by evil people. The world hates liars. Liars are Satanic creatures on earth. Liars want their right to lie on order to destroy. Hunters laptop and nothing ever found. Just accusations and conspiracies by Satan's children.

  7. I think it seems more likely that someone powerful with connections in those agencies, e.g. a vindictive powerful person calls a powerful elite within the agency and then the targeting begins at the upper echelon. I have a hard time believing that agents at the ground level would target without being directed from the top.

  8. The FBi was always a control apparatus for those in power and the FBI itself. J.E. Hoover took over the FBI after two former directors were incarcerated. While Hoover worked for the US Attorney's Office he partook in the prosecution and extradition of Emma Goldman, a peaceful anarchist commentator on societal issues of her time. During the 1960's – 70's the FBI engaged In various COINTELPRO operations targeting activists which included breaking and other illegal activities. After 911 the FBI questioned and or investigated those who criticized Bush Jr., failed to investigate evidence that 911 was an inside job,, and were active participants in the USA's torture program. FBI corruption has been innstitutionl for many decades. Their corruption It is not a recent development, and for the .out part the FBI have always worked hand in hand with the DOJ & the courts towards the identical ends.

  9. Hedges and Taibbi hate working people, they have NO class consciousness, because they are not from the working class and are Millionaires. Capitalism IS the crisis!!!!

  10. Try reporting someone related to a politically elite family for stalking, harassment and privacy torts and see how “free” you are

  11. Pure faux Progressivism played out on a donor owned media channel by one of the biggest political rift profiteer this nation has ever known.

  12. Maximum respect to a journalist like Matt Taibbi to admit his mistakes. If Mehdi Hasan had any integrity he would own up to his far graver error (if it really was unintended) and correct the record. Anyone who thinks winning every argument is the goal rather than arriving at the truth, is more of a shyster than a journalist.

  13. It’s not rocket science debatable. Once tech companies figured out they can control the internet. Governments jump onboard for profitable and domineering concept.
    Hot life tip: Americans need more secret agency meddling and creating jobs

  14. When Chris says that Democrats and certain Republicans have come together to suppress speech and protect established institutions he means the “Deep State”!

  15. It is hard to know really far as I am concerned what US interests are. When Taibbi mentions that it feels like Soviet Union the Soviet Union would switch. One day the peasants were told to love the Germans and the next the Germans were evil angels. What was the truth? What had they ever been? Why exactly had Stalin been giving so much of the product of Soviet Man's labor to the Germans and waiting for the day of invasion to change their tune, would be rational questions to lay at Stalin's feet. The truth was what Stalin said it was, not what it was. For us today that is the case. The truth is now for Americans what Biden or Trump says it is. This is what the reputable journalists are fighting to make clear: The Truth is the Truth.

  16. They need peoples informed consent that is why they are constantly trying to manufacture people consent in all areas of their life.
    For example in American they manufacture womens consent into signing consent forms to allow them to harvest defenceless baby boys foreskins for profits and it also has a Yahwistic christian-zionized slave aspect to it,ie:branding.

  17. Joseph Kennedy takes the Presidency underground in 1963.

    Various billionaires had been trying to create a shadow government for many decades, with only varying degrees of success. Only Joseph Kennedy was successful. He had already installed his first son Joe as titular head of this shadow government behind Truman, but in the late 40's and 50's the Kennedys were still warring with other powerful families for control of this shadow government. Alliances were made that I won't go into in this paper, allowing the Kennedys to solidify control from 1945 to 1960, when JFK and RFK were installed in top visible positions. At that time Joseph, Sr. felt secure enough in his
    position and alliances to accelerate the takeover of the Mob. Within a decade all the Mob business had been absorbed by the allied billionaire families. This led to the further enrichment of those families,the accompanying fattening and expansion of the banks, and the similar expansion of CIA, for the same reasons. In the 1970's, these families used this expansion to utterly overwhelm Congress, putting it into permanent emeritus status. The courts were swamped in the same way, and by 1980 these allied families had completed their takeover not only of all lucrative business, but all government. All decisions were made by shadow governors, some of which were Kennedys, some of which were not.
    In this way the Kennedys were able to advance with even more stealth than the Rockefellers. A few know that the Rockefeller family is far more rich and powerful than it claims, but almost no one knows the Kennedys are even richer and more powerful.
