The Lion King Goes to Notre Dame: Deposing the global villians and restoring a king

I was very excited to see President Trump represent America at the re-opening of the Notre Dame cathedral in Paris.  I have a personal relationship with that cathedral, and I wasn’t sure if I’d ever get to see it again.  When it was burnt down by what we now know were radical Islamic terrorists, not an electrical short as we had been told, I was furious because I had just gone on a trip there with my family to visit the historical site, and we witnessed up close and personal just how radicalized Paris had become as we walked the distance from the train station speed train from London through all the neighborhoods to the historic site.  We saw the radicalism up close, so it was no surprise that a year after we visited, Notre Dame, like several other catholic churches, was burnt to the ground over a holy war provoked by some of the world’s worst characters barely concealed behind polite society.  I had been following the restoration of the cathedral closely, and when Trump won the election and it was reported that he would be attending the re-opening, it was more than satisfying considering all that had happened.  But as I watched him arrive and take his seat, with all eyes upon him, spying a gaze upon the world’s most powerful person, I couldn’t help but think of a couple of popular Disney movies for the context of what we were seeing.  Usually, when he is thought about, Trump is considered a lion more than an elephant of the Republican party.  So Simba from The Lion King came to mind as the only proper reference.  Then, of course, there are the various Hunchback of Notre Dame movies that are so much a part of our entertainment culture.  But the way the world looked at Trump at that event was like a king returned very much following the plot of The Lion King, and suddenly Trump was there, as was a restored representation of Western civilization.  And it was very satisfying.

I had been very vocal when the cathedral was burnt down. I made my opinion public with written articles and told anybody who wanted to listen or interview me, what I thought.  My family visited in 2017, and we bonded with the place historically. I felt the attack was a personal affront to me and Western civilization as a whole.  And I got into a lot of trouble professionally over the Notre Dame incident.  Several people went for my jugular because they thought the world was going to become a progressive monstrosity and that they were going to cancel culture me out of existence for insisting that radical Islamic terrorists were responsible for the violence in Paris.  After all, we had seen it firsthand.  As a family, we walked over 15 miles all over Paris, so we weren’t reporting helicopter opinions about the place.  But those were the early stages of woke cancel culture, and it was stunning that I was made a target over saying the obvious, and that didn’t go over well.  My anger was further entrenched.  Of course, I survived it all, and the people who did all they did to me are no longer around, and I can only say they did it to themselves.  I tried to warn them, but they didn’t listen.  When you play hardball, the ball hurts when you get hit with it, and I threw it back with some juice.  However, like the Lion King movie and famous stage play, which I have seen many times, Trump was a character very similar to Simba and would soon be cast out as an exile.

Before we visited Notre Dame, back in London, there were protests against Trump outside of Parliament by Big Ben, and the world was seeking to overthrow President Trump’s American influence over globalism.  We would, of course, watch over the next few years as the American-lettered agencies working with scandalous characters on the world stage plotted the demise of President Trump and threw him out of office with the same kind of flair that Scar killed the father Mufasa in The Lion King to the now famous soundtrack of Hans Zimmer, to theatrical effect.  With one of the great symbols of Western civilization destroyed and an American president overthrown through massive election fraud, things were not looking good in the world.  And we all know the story of The Lion King, as Scar took over the tribe, represented here by Joe Biden and his band of globalist insurgents and Chinese connections, things went downhill quickly.  The world started drowning in inflation and terrifying woke policies.  And all look hopeless for a long time.  But like The Lion King, the castaway exile, Simba learned to be a king, and eventually, he would return and depose Scar and get revenge for what had happened to his tribe. And the return would be triumphant and celebrated, just as it was when Trump returned to the fully restored Notre Dame cathedral.  The cathedral and the American presidency had been targeted for attack and destruction as the enemies of the world plotting the doom of Western civilization itself with diabolical plots of evil and mayhem.  And like Scar, they thought they had won the throne forever.  But those dreams shattered once the king returned.

There were periods over the last few years when I thought we’d never see anything good again.  After the burning down of Notre Dame and the way many progressive elements, already significantly entrenched in the United States, were behaving towards a progressive plot over the demise of all Western civilization, I figured it was all coming to an end.  I remember thinking at a checkpoint during Covid, where I was fully ready for a shootout with authorities over an unconstitutional search and seizure event, that this was how it all ended.  Luckily, when I told the authorities that they were smoking crack if they thought what they were doing was legal, they didn’t push it because they knew they were in the wrong during the Covid lockdowns.  And nobody had to draw guns and fire at each other.  But it got close.  I was the only one on the roads for about three weeks in March of 2021, and I had decided I wouldn’t put up with Scar running the world I was living in.  Like Rafiki in The Lion King, I cheered on the king’s return as the best solution, and that is precisely what happened.  And Trump made a triumphant return to Notre Dame as the world who plotted the demise of him and all of us looked on with sudden admiration.  Trump was the celebrity the world wanted, even the bad guys, and it took all this for them to realize it.  And suddenly, the King returned from exile, and the great cathedral was restored. Then, the world looked a whole lot better.  Happy endings are real, and that Notre Dame event was proof of it. As scary as it was, we’ve seen it before in our fantasies, like the story of The Lion King.  We have all lived through it, being taken over by our version of Scar, the villain.  And the world suffered terribly while Simba was in exile.  But after a triumphant return, the world watched with happiness and gazed upon the king as he returned to lead Western civilization forward in ways nobody previously thought possible.  And the world was suddenly a much better place.

Why D.O.G.E. Will Be Successful Where Others Have Failed: Vivek Ramaswamy and I share close personal friends, and everyone gets it–this time

Vivek Ramaswamy and I share close personal friends.  I happened to have had dinner with a few of them the other day, and we had an excellent talk about D.O.G.E., this new Department of Government Efficiency, and what it was that would make it successful as opposed to every other attempt in history to reign in government overreach and waste at the expense of taxpayer budgets.  We also talked about their appearance in Time Magazine, a special commemorative to President Trump.  From my own experience, I have been pointing out government waste for a few decades now.  To take on a job like this, you have to have independent wealth to a certain extent.  Suppose you are making money off the system. In that case, it is nearly impossible to reform the system, and most of the political figures that have come and gone through the Washington D.C. culture may have had a lot of money, but they aren’t independently wealthy.  To manage something or to reform it, you can’t be a desperate fool trying to rub two dimes together that you found in a couch to make a penny.  You need to be able to insulate yourself to have objective thought.  That is what makes Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk unique at this point in history; they are independently wealthy.  Trump is independently wealthy.  Most people joining Trump at the White House are independently wealthy, and Democrats have taken notice.  They have an unnatural hatred of wealth which is part of the problem.  At the heart of all government waste are these anti-capitalist, money-hating unions that have a side story of collapsing the entire economic system of the United States, and that is certainly the philosophy behind the labor movement, which is at the heart of the problem.  So I was talking about this issue at a nice, intimate dinner, and I can just tell everybody, this D.O.G.E. thing won’t be like anything else ever done or attempted before.  And, it could only happen because of the independent wealth of the leadership.  Because to do the job correctly, you have to have the objectivity to avoid the face up against the glass perspective that most in government always have.  And solve the problem for good.   I know from personal experience that Vivek Ramaswamy is one of the few who are qualified and able to perform the task.

Of course, I’ve been involved in the background many times to try something like this D.O.G.E., such as SB5 back in 2012, where there was an effort to make public sector unions illegal in Ohio.  This has been a problem for a long time; unions are attached to government labor because you can’t have any meaningful discussions about budget reform with radical left-winged unions running the budgets.  It doesn’t matter if it’s a public school or the FBI.  Too many government agencies are locked in place, and too many labor unions pay people too much to work too little.  So, taking that problem on involves many people who make money off the chaos, including many politicians who built that system.  Many became very rich from insider trading, so once everyone drinks from that cup of corruption, there is no going back, and things get out of control.  The SB5 effort failed for many reasons, but it came down to independent wealth.  Too many people involved in the reform were in their key income-making years and could not be objective about the necessity of government operations.  They feared not making their own money out of that process, so they were too weak to perform the task when the rubber hit the road.

The Tea Party effort tried to work with the system for many years, but the SWAMP was deep, and the alligators and pythons wanted to eat you every time you tried to pull the plug, so they were very vicious.  That means you can’t be a swamp creature and still drain that swamp so that we can make something much better.  I remember when I first met Vivek Ramaswamy through the friends mentioned and others, and we talked about where he was in life.  I understood, and he asked me if I wanted a picture with him while we were talking.  I felt strange about it; I’m not the kind who does that very much.  But looking back on it, it was one of those pinnacle moments.  A year later, I had him sign a copy of his book Woke Inc. because I felt he was on to something unique and special.  He wrote in front of my book, “Speak Freely,” because at that time, he didn’t know what he was going to do.  Maybe he would be a senator or the President, but he would use his independent wealth to try and give something back and fix this government waste problem.  He understood that the way to do that was not to attack the problem where it was most potent, but in other ways, such as through free speech, so he wrote what he did in my book.  Vivek Ramaswamy had earned the ability to criticize the system through his private wealth because he wasn’t dependent on it for his livelihood. 

Ironically, that is precisely where Elon Musk is in his life.  What good is being the wealthiest person in the world if the world is declining in value?  It’s not the stuff you can buy, but it’s what the stuff is worth that matters.  And how D.O.G.E. will work was outlined in Vivek’s books.  I saw this early on and have been very excited about that approach.   I knew it would work and that Vivek was on to something that could have only come from his unique perspective.  And that D.O.G.E. will be very effective, not in the way that the government unions are ready for.  They are not prepared to fight on this front but believe me, we have tried to give them all a fair shake, and they spit in our faces.  Don’t try to befriend people who spit in your face.  If they want to destroy themselves, then let them.  And that, ultimately, is what will happen with D.O.G.E. and why it will succeed while all other attempts have failed.  When we’ve had government shutdowns in the past, it was always what labor took away to extort resolution through pain and suffering, the typical radical labor union perspective.  People are tired of that type of management method and are ready for a barrage of free speech on the matter, which only people who are independently wealthy can afford to utter.  In that way, government reform won’t be done through the front door of legislative control, which Congress can hide behind by saying that the rules of government labor tie their hands.  But that the foundation that all the rules were built to protect the very lazy and corrupt from the merits of judgment reside that will be dealt with, for really, the first time in the history of the world.  And I am thrilled to see it and that Vivek Ramaswamy is at the heart of the reform.  I know it will be successful because he and many others are also involved in very healthy ways in front and behind the scenes.  And it’s about time!

All Trump’s Picks Should Easily Get Confirmed: Democrats don’t have the political capital to take a stand

You must understand that this pushback against Trump’s cabinet picks is purely the swamp defending itself from change. Primarily driven by the same media that tried to insert Kamala Harris as a president.  The final results are that all of Trump’s picks will be approved, and the drama will die quickly in the coming weeks.  But we have to understand what kind of game is being played here; it’s the same high school game of popularity that Democrats and global communists try to apply to every social effort.  If you challenge their static order, you might be called a name.  Or they may not like you, and everyone likes to be liked.  So they use that trend against the incoming President Trump, in this case, to let him know that the Senate is in charge, which, in essence, is the desired belief of the media companies who are run by those financial globalists who want to think they are in charge of everything.  And that public sentiment can rule over their enemies with an iron fist.  This belief is that the Senate will be essentially 50/50 down the middle and that if only a few Republicans peel away as RINOs and stop Trump’s picks from being confirmed, such as Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel, that they will be able to preserve their corrupt Beltway culture.  That notion is a fantasy because many other factors will go into the Senate confirmations, and it should be expected that all of Trump’s picks will quickly get confirmed without much controversy.  Because behind the defense mechanisms of the SWAMP itself is a grim reality: we are a Republic, not a flea-bitten democracy of social butterflies controlled by the popular kids in school.  Quickly, the tough-talking senators who desire to work against Trump will find that the real pressure on their votes will come from public disclosure, not a protection of the Beltway by those who have most corrupted it. 

For instance, let’s review the confirmation of the very corrupt and controversial Merrick Garland for Attorney General.  He won his confirmation easily with a 70-30 vote, meaning a lot of Republicans, many of the same names being mentioned now peeling away from Trump, voted with the Biden administration to give Democrats a fair shake of opinion under the “advise and consent” decree of Constitutional necessity.  And that is generally how it goes in all confirmations.  There aren’t many more controversial than that one, but there were around 20 senators who were willing to give Biden a fair shake, even if they disagreed with the President politically.  They wanted to show the incoming administration and other senators that they were willing to work with the other side to get things done for the American people.  At least by appearance.  They were the minority party essentially and did not feel they could dig in and take a stand against the presidential picks of a political change state.  So Merrick Garland sailed through without much of a hitch.  Most of these senators believe that it is their job to ask questions in public and provide an extra level of scrutiny that might otherwise go unnoticed.  However, they do not feel validated enough to stop a presidential administration from the start, but they feel it’s in their best interest to give the appearance to the public and the president of a willingness to work with everyone for the good of the Republic.  Most of them like being senators, and they don’t want to be thrown out at the next election because, ultimately, they must represent the general opinion of the public, not their personal desires. 

So the media is telling us that not one Democrat is going to vote for any of Trump’s picks and that a few RINO Republicans can completely derail President Trump’s incoming administration.  But the truth is, there are likely a lot of Democrats who will want to vote for Trump’s picks for all the same reasons that Republicans have done so in the past.  And by the time all the smoke clears, it won’t even be close.  And here’s why it is essential to understand this: because what’s been going on is a kind of Saul Alinsky control over the election process for far too long, and it has prevented us in the past from doing what needed to be done because we thought the media and other influencers had a lot more power than they actually had.  But they don’t have much power, really, in the end.  And once you buckle for one of these picks, like the blood in the water was with Matt Gaetz for Attorney General, then the bad guys will think they can character assassinate all the Trump picks and get away with it, such as with Robert Kennedy, who will be very controversial for Senators to consider.  But ultimately, they won’t have a choice.  Most of them have taken a lot of money from Big Pharma, and voting for Kennedy will be hard for them.  However, Republicans and Democrats know that there needs to be significant system reform and that only Kennedy can do it.  Otherwise, they will get wrapped up in all the bad COVID news that’s coming soon, including who knew what and when. And how much damage everyone up front knew the bioweapon of Covid was going to be as it was unleashed from China along a very purposeful trajectory.  Plenty of senators understood the situation and didn’t want to be on the wrong side of history, so they will vote for Kennedy so they wouldn’t be associated with stonewalling a criminal investigation that isn’t going away.  Especially after Brad Wenstrup’s Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Report that is coming out now.  (Don’t say I didn’t tell you all this years ago.  It’s all coming out and a lot of people are in a lot of trouble, as they should be) 

Trump was very popularly elected, and many Democrat Senators are trying to hold seats in states that Trump won.  So, while media leaks might try to show resistance to Trump popularity within their party politics when it comes time to put a vote on paper for the record, things tighten up considerably.  And none of the Trump picks are crazy like many of the Biden picks were, where cross-dressing freakshows were presented with more than a tongue in cheek, and the expectation to vote for them was hard pressed. Otherwise, those senators would be accused of standing in the way.  Many Republicans didn’t want that guilt by association, so they voted to confirm.  And there will be a lot of Democrats in the same boat, especially now that they are in the minority.  They don’t have the numbers to run an insurrection. Otherwise, their minority status will only increase in the negative direction.  The discussion we are having ahead of the confirmation hearings is just a hopeful fantasy of the Beltway SWAMP creatures hoping to stave off reform for as long as possible.  However, the Trump picks are all top of their field types and have a lot of media experience, so they won’t give any senators an easy way to vote no. However, the temptation to vote for confirmation will be pressure from the public to hold a seat on the record against a very popular president.  And nobody wants that.  Who thinks that John Fetterman won’t vote to confirm Trump’s picks?  He’s not the only Democrat Senator looking to survive the Trump presidency.  So, in the end, the few RINO Republicans who are left in the Senate are not going to be able to control the agenda.  It’s all too big for them, and that realization will hit everyone soon.  People are going to realize that we have been a Republic all along.  And being a representative is what matters most, not personal radicalism and ideology.

Kash Patel is the Only Way to Save the FBI: Power hungry, corrupt, and pretentious, government employees need checks on their authority

The FBI was a wasted effort for me a long time ago.  When it was announced that Kash Patel would be Trump’s nominee to direct it, I thought only he could do anything to save the institution from destruction.  After what they did to Trump and many of us over the last decade, there is no forgiving them for their government activism, and really, a terrible job done.  And it’s a problem that goes far beyond the FBI.  I know people who have been in the FBI, and their mentality is very similar to the kind of nonsense we saw with Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe when he was grilled in front of Congress recently over the terrible coverage of Trump during an assassination attempt.  To avoid criticism, he went on the attack and cited his coverage of 9/11 and tried to play the “Hammer Time” card, “can’t touch this” because I’m a patriot angle.  It was embarrassing, but it revealed the same kind of arrogance we saw from former FBI directors, such as James Comey.  When Trump fired Comey for many good reasons, I was part of a panel that CNN called to talk about it, and I remember the attitude of the time.  Here was Jim Comey, who had just let Hillary Clinton off criminal conviction for her abuse of a public office with her email scandal and destruction of evidence, who was spying on Trump’s campaign and going on a personal crusade to destroy General Flynn, because Trump’s people were new and didn’t know all the rules of conduct.  Comey inspired the FBI to go on a witch hunt against Trump that would go on for eight more years and personally attempt to destroy Trump in every way possible.  Comey led a coup against an American-picked president by a civilian government, and his attitude was just like Ronald Rowe’s.  I’m important.  I work for the government.  Don’t ever question me, or I will yell at you. 

Trump fired Comey for his actions against him and Flynn, and he put in a swamp creature to appease his critics, Christopher Wray, and the FBI only got worse.  Trump tried to play the game fairly, and the FBI, from top to bottom, had no intention of being fair back.  They had government power, and they were hell-bent to use it.  And if you questioned them, you might be next for harassment.  And that’s what the CNN producers told me after we shot a spot for Anderson Cooper in the parking lot after I said what I said on the air about Comey after the first year of Trump’s first term.  It was apparent to me what was going on.  This was an out-of-control FBI, and Trump had just fired Comey, and the question at the time was whether Trump could have, or should have done so, based on the evidence at that time.  I used my usual velvet hammer response to talk about essentially a problematic subject matter when they asked me on the air if Comey had lied about his activism against Trump.  I also said that Comey was more like the fiction writer Ian Flemming, the creator of James Bond.  There was more about Comey that was fiction than was factual.  And for that, the CNN people told me the FBI would target me for talking against them on national television.  Of course, I told them I didn’t care; there wasn’t much they could do to me that they hadn’t tried to do up to that point.  I didn’t arrive at my conclusions about Trump recently, but I had a lot of experience with the FBI leading up to that point, and I thought I was being very nice about it.  All things considered.

But since then, the FBI has led the efforts to destroy Trump and his members of the former White House, especially Rudy Giuliani, Steve Bannon, and Peter Navarro.  All of them were good men, and as I told everyone several years ago, Trump would put them back into his second term in the White House.  Fewer good people pursue justice than Rudy Giuliani, who was personally ruined by the Joe Biden White House.  Rudy had the now-famous laptop from Hell that had all the dirt on the Biden crime family, and the FBI tried to cover up that evidence with personal destruction against the guy who had the evidence.  I have watched the FBI many times over the years destroy evidence to drive a political narrative, and I have next to no trust in any of them at this point.  I always think of the Christmas shooting in San Bernadino by a radical Islamic couple as one of the worst examples in American history of an FBI coverup.  Right after the killings, and the couple who performed the acts of terrorism had just been killed, the FBI let the media into the couple’s apartment under cover of “full disclosure” and protecting the 1st Amendment.  But in reality, it was the purposeful destruction of a crime scene by letting the press ultimately contaminate the scene so nobody would learn anything about the terrorists.  I would say most of what the FBI does wrong is purposeful, such as not asking the following next layer questions when the terrorists of 9/11 wanted to learn how to fly planes from a Florida instructor, not to land them.  When you try to pin them down with criticism, they get all emotional and try to play a patriot card, just like that loser Ronald Rowe did.  They try to intimidate away criticism so nobody dares to question their lofty power in Washington, D.C. 

Kash Patel, who had the highest security clearance in government and was a great guy under Trump’s first administration, wrote the excellent book Government Gangsters and was all over the movie Police State.  I think the FBI, in its current form, is more dangerous than open terrorist organizations.  We would be better off without the CIA and FBI most of the time because they have become so corrupt and power-hungry.  Just reviewing the FISA warrant process that they abused against Trump shows the playbook they’d use against any of us to harass us over political disagreements.  Then, when they raided Mar-a-Lago in an attempt to knock off President Trump before he ever had a chance to return to the White House under a legitimate election, give me a break.  The FBI should be dismantled.   The only way to save it, and I mean the only way, is to put someone like Kash Patel in charge of it.  And the people who caused all this trouble don’t get a vote.  We aren’t going to be pushed around by losers like the Secret Service Director or James Comey, who was far more interested in wine tasting than rule of law ethics.  Comey showed himself to be a protector of Democrat Beltway politics at the expense of justice.  And those who came before and after him were no better.  So there isn’t anything to preserve.  Anybody who wants to try to make the FBI work properly would do well to get behind Kash Patel and support him without radicalism.  And be happy that he’s not as evil as most government employees are, self-centered, and corrupt beyond recognition.  I was always right about them, even when CNN pressed me in front of many people.  And I said it as politely as possible, but it doesn’t change the fact that we have never been able to trust the FBI with the kind of power they have had.  And it’s time for them to pay for the abuse of that power so the country can survive.

Why DEI Was Always a Dumb Idea: What we learned from the Swordsman Scene in ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’

I really loved the book about Howard Kazanjian called A Producer’s Life.  I’ve referenced it many times over the last several weeks because it was an enjoyable book.  It’s the most fun I’ve had reading a book in a while, and it is one that I promised myself I’d read if Trump was re-elected into the White House.  I wouldn’t let myself think about these kinds of things as what is in Howard’s book prior, even if I do love the topic.  For a large part of my life, I wanted to be a filmmaker, and Hollywood producers like Howard Kazanjian were the kind of people who inspired me.  He produced most of my favorite movies from a key period, when he was on top of the Hollywood pile with Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and many others, with films from 1975 until 1982.   Howard was always good, but if you are trending good movies and who made them over the entire history of Hollywood, this specific period set the stage for what the industry would become, and mean to the world as a whole regarding entertainment.  So, I find it very interesting to study what went right and wrong during this period.  Ironically, learning these things is precisely why understanding DEI policies and why they failed is important.  Because currently, after the Trump election and his spectacular victory, the world is giving up on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs, and rightfully so.  We’re not talking about a Republican versus Democrat position here; Howard Kazanjian, I would say, probably leans toward Hollywood liberalism and likely wanted Kamala Harris to win the election.  But with Trump back in office, the world is a lot better, and I have more tolerance for people who are not so bright on political matters.  Which is why I couldn’t let myself read a book like this before the election. 

In that book, I read a good illustrative example of why DEI failed and why companies needed to get rid of it for the sake of everyone.  Picking employees based on their skin color or assuming they are equal to other people and that they should be included in something just because they exist was always ridiculous.  Some people are better than others, and if you want something to be good, you have to find the best people and put them in place; that’s good management.  And in the movie business, good people are few and far between.  But Howard Kazanjian, during that period I mentioned, found a way to be around the best people in the business, and specifically, a conversation I had never heard about regarding the famous swordsman scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark, being filmed in 1980 for a 1981 release.  Everyone, no matter who they are, knows the scene.  Indiana Jones is looking for his lost girlfriend, Marian, who the Nazis have captured on the streets of Cairo.  And he has to stop them with a glorious shootout with lots of explosions and good stuff.  Along the way, Indiana Jones is stopped by an Arab swordsman who wants to fight.  But the hero doesn’t have time for it.  What does he do?   People remember with great recollection that Indy pulls out his gun, shoots the villain on the spot with no fanfare, and gets back to looking for his girlfriend.  In all the documentaries of how that movie was made, we learned that Harrison Ford was sick that day and just did the scene as a joke because there was supposed to be a fight with bullwhips that was very elaborate, and the whole crew was sick of filming take after take.  When Spielberg saw what Harrison Ford did, he wanted to keep it as a new version and print it for the film.  But there was more to the story I heard in this book on Howard Kazanjian for the first time.

George Lucas still wanted his bullwhip fight scene.  One of the reasons he was making Raiders of the Lost Ark as the executive producer was to create a modern version of the kind of movies he liked as a kid, and he wanted a classic bullwhip fight like might have been in Don Q Son of Zorro, or Zorro’s Fighting Legion.  And he wasn’t convinced that just having Indiana Jones shoot the bad guy and get on with his business was the right thing to do.  So, here were the most talented filmmakers in movie-making history who disagreed with this famous scene.  So what were they going to do?  George Lucas decided to run two film versions by a test audience, one Spielberg’s way, the other with the bullwhip fight.  They were going to let market desire determine the film’s final version.  So they played George’s version first to a test audience.  People came out of the movie liking it, and Paramount Pictures felt they had a hit.  It was a good movie.  But when Spielberg’s version was seen, people applauded when Indiana Jones shot the swordsman.  And it became everyone’s favorite moment in the movie, even after all these years.  They made 5 Indiana Jones films over the next 40 years, but none would ever have a better moment than that one to mass audiences. 

Ultimately, even with all the talent of all these people involved, it was the marketplace that picked the scene. The filmmakers came up with ideas, but to determine the success of the enterprise, they tested the waters with market analysis. The audience clearly picked one version over the other, and the rest is filmmaking history.  Presently, they are test-screening the new Captain America movie for Disney, and it is going through all kinds of trouble because nothing is working.  The film is filled with a bunch of woke politics, and people don’t like it.  It’s going to bomb when it hits theaters in February.  Ultimately, that is why DEI programs destroyed market share and value for all companies, from cookie makers to high-tech offerings.  DEI was an imposed value put on the marketplace that would have been similar to George Lucas keeping his whip fight in the movie because he wanted it, to force the audience to like it because he did.  Instead of listening to them, which is what happened.  When companies try to impose themselves on the public and force values on them that they don’t have, failure is almost assured.  However, when products appeal to the audience’s sentiment, great success is possible.  It is rare because good ideas are complex, and companies often hang on to them even if the market pressure rejects them.  Only to plot an enterprise to its doom.  But when we say that getting rid of DEI suits all businesses everywhere, this is what we mean and why.  In capitalism, value serves the marketplace.  In authoritarian governments, values are imposed, and a monopoly status is sought that limits the viability of options.  And the world is far worse off because of it.  The best example of why some ideas work over other ideas can sometimes come from interesting places, which is undoubtedly the case with a movie most people agree has some value to them over time, and that is how Indiana Jones was created in that old classic movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark.

The Rejection of Freakshow Politics: Democrats had Joe Rogan, and they lost him because they had terrible messaging

There is a lot of talk by Democrats about what could have been in their messaging that could have caused them to win during this last election cycle.  And with Hunter Biden getting his pardon, one that everyone saw coming, there is a belief that he, or some other Democrat, could run a podcast to compete with Joe Rogan and that if only they had someone as popular on the left, they could sell their message.  Well, here’s the deal: Democrats lost because they made themselves the “Freakshow Party,” the political party of broken toys from Misfit Island, and their messaging was terrible.  When Biden was given power by a rigged election provoked by a manufactured Covid virus released from a lab in China to cause a coup in the United States, the first thing he did was put a gay guy like Major Pete on his cabinet and Ralph Levine for Assistant Secretary for Health and Head of the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps as well as Health and Human Services, as a crossdresser right out of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.  Biden’s people were caught having gay sex and filming it in public buildings, and they fully expected to shut down anybody’s negative opinions on the matter, forcing many to count down the days until these losers were voted out of office.  And a lot of people couldn’t wait to vote against the Biden administration because of the Freakshow they put on and expected everyone to accept.  No amount of any podcast could justify the audaciousness of how Democrats positioned themselves for the 2024 election.  They can’t sell something to people that they don’t want to buy, and that is apparently new news to them.  But they should have listened because I have been telling them that for a long time. 

As to Joe Rogan, they had him.  I’ve said about Joe Rogan that he was too liberal for me.  He voted for Biden and Obama and has only now been a Trump supporter.  The same with Elon Musk and many other Democrats who converted to the Republican Party in the wake of the assassination attempt against Trump in July of 2024.  I didn’t listen to the Joe Rogan podcast because he was a devoted Democrat, and I don’t have time in my life for people like that.  I only paid attention to him because he was moving toward Trump in the closing days of the 2024 election. After all, the Democrats were so embarrassing.  So, if the Republican Party was going to go into a big tent party, I was happy to hold open the flap to that tent to fill it with as many people as possible.  But this notion that if only Democrats had their version of Joe Rogan is ridiculous.  Because they had him.  As well as owning most of the media culture that there is.  People turned away from Democrats because they became the party of the Freakshow; they abused their relationship with everyday people to such an extent that they pushed people away.  And that is something they didn’t think would happen.  When people like AOC in Congress seem normal and rational, the Democrats have a big problem, and people are going to turn away from them just by association.  Democrats thought they could abuse their relationship with people, just as most corporations these days also believe because they feel like communists who can live in a bubble without competitive ideas to challenge them and come to the conclusions within their little world that they are all there is. 

They should have seen the writing on the wall when they mistreated their people, like Musk and Joe Rogan, for being critical of the Democrat party when they should have been listening.   With Rogan, the political left tried to cancel culture him for doing a podcast where anti-vaxers were on to talk about COVID-19, and the left tried to damage Rogan’s deal with Spotify.  I can tell everyone here that I went through all kinds of problems, especially with Spotify and YouTube, so I can understand Rogan’s situation because he had real money at stake in the protests.  But it was essentially an anti-free speech message that Democrats had, their modern version of the Berlin Wall.  Communists cannot afford competition with capitalist markets, and ultimately, when you have the wealthiest guy in the world on your side, but you are attacking the kind of world that made him rich in the first place, you are setting yourself up for a significant loss.  Elon Musk pays more taxes than any person on planet Earth, and Democrats just kept asking for more.  It’s like a husband who continues to keep cheating on his wife, and she stays with him for as long as she can take it, then decides one day, no more.  And she finally leaves.  And she should go if he’s not respecting her.  That’s what the Democrats did to their people, like Joe Rogan, Elon Musk, Robert Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard, and many others.  There were a lot of Democrats, especially union members, who voted for Trump in this last election because the message was better from Republicans.  Democrats took it for granted that their platform was so powerful that they could shame people into voting for a Freakshow, a bunch of sexual deviants, and crack addicts with an addiction to all kinds of problems.  And presenting those kinds of people to the world was a winning strategy.

Ultimately, this problem is one I have been pointing out for a long time.  I write on this site because I know who reads it and why.  I do not write here for the ordinary, everyday person but for the influencers on the frontier of independent journalism, which is where all the action will be in the future.  Traditional media is dying.  Modern media platforms like Truth Social, Gettr, and Elon Musk’s “X” are the future, and the kind of competitive content out there will destroy a weak message.  So, I see my efforts as being very important to that process and an investment on my part to a better world.  For all those who aren’t sure what they can or can’t talk about, I provide a new way of thinking about it in a media culture increasingly driven by artificial intelligence.  And the Democrats showed a complete lack of respect for other people’s opinions over these last eight years, essentially since Trump entered office the first time.  In their desperation, they ran wildly in the other direction toward “freakshow” politics, such as the bearded lady at a carnival or the man with two heads.  And they scared off any fringy supporters they did have who were straddling the fine line between left-of-center politics and the right.  So they lost support because of their strategy, and giving Hunter Biden his own podcast would only accelerate their problems.  And that’s the thing: it is a free world; Hunter Biden could start his podcast tomorrow, just as anybody could.  But would anybody listen or pay attention?  I do it because people do pay attention and listen.  And I see the impact.  But who wants to listen to Hunter Biden?  Who cares about one thing that he says or does?  And how could a person like that move a political party toward success?  The answer is that they can’t, and that’s why Democrats lost.  They embraced the wrong strategy, which probably cost them their party.  As I always say, Democrats can’t win if they don’t cheat.  And that was certainly the case in 2024.  Where it was too big to rig, Democrats couldn’t win because they couldn’t cheat.  And they had no other strategy for winning because their messaging never respected voter opinions.  Only the guilt they could generate from their freakshow politics, which would always fail.

Starting Wars to Control People: It was always the global strategy by secret societies like the Skull and Bones

It’s been a dirty little secret for a long time, but it has been going on since the dawn of human civilization, and we are seeing it come to an end here in 2024.  And that is the strategy of starting wars to control mass society.  Most recently, the example of the secret society, the Skull and Bones at Yale University, is to produce political figures who would keep that trend going to maintain an aristocracy of globalism for which people like John Kerry and the Bushes would support as they moved into political positions.  This is why those forces are in a rush to start more war ahead of President Trump’s next term, because after he’s back in office, there won’t be any tolerance for it.  It’s also why the Deep State fought so hard to get rid of Trump the first time, spending eight years doing everything they could do to pound him out of existence and to ensure that civilian control over the American government would never happen again.  Yet it did, and now the panic is viperous.  Few know it because it is a secret society, but in the lobby of the Skull and Bones building is the word “War” written on the wall as their foundational concept, and it’s how they always planned to rule.  These people never had a desire for world peace.  War was what they used to grab power as a Deep State and to use that power to stay in control.  When we say Deep State, as in the case of the Skull and Bones, it’s the desire to run a government that is beyond the civilian elected government.  Any notation of control that the Skull and Bones have about their role in government is unconstitutional. 

Just as the Bohemian Grove people believe on the West Coast, the idea of a secret society to mold the next generation through hazing rituals to rule in the background was only going to be possible if they gained the ability to start a war in one region, then to push for peace in another.  For instance, consider the protests of the Vietnam War that have had so much documentary evidence to review.  On the one hand, the Deep Staters would push for the expansion of communism into South East China by using war first against Japan to soften up the Chinese to communist attack from the north flowing out of Russia.  Then the sad bell boy, Ho Chi Minh from the Treaty of Versailles monstrosity, poised and angry at the French occupation of their homeland in Vietnam, adopted communism as their calling cry to freedom.  Americans were called into the war by the same globalists who started the war to provoke war protests then and usher in the hippie movement that had communist foundations to open the door in the West for such thinking on America’s college campuses.  None would have happened without the pressure of war to drive social change.  The war wasn’t about freedom in Vietnam; it was about bringing down the West in the same way that communism brought down China.  And China was being built to become the first state of globalism, meant to do the same to the rest of the world, which we see happening today.  China, the creation of the globalist one-world order threatening the world financially and structurally, pushed everyone into communism so that centralized governments could control everything in the background.  Trump was the first Republican to call the bluff card on this mess during his first term when he started putting an end to all these phony wars, especially regarding North Korea.

North Korea was built to be a sympathetic target to draw attention away from China.  As pretty much a useless threat to the world, they would launch their empty missiles out and over the Sea of Japan routinely, as the media would report the antics frantically to the world, hoping to provoke public reaction toward animosity toward the ruler, Kim Jong Un.  And who could forgive what the North Koreans did to the young man from Cincinnati, Otto Warmbier, who was tortured ruthlessly?  Fortunately, Trump saw through all these strategies and ignored the warnings of how dangerous Kim Jong Un was, and reached across the border to shake the young man’s hand and develop a friendship.  Left to their own devices, most people will do terrible things to each other, such as what happened to Otto Warmbier.  And that is actually how the Deep State recruits their people out of organizations like the Skull and Bones, with embarrassing sexual confessions meant to bond members for life, to use the deceitful nature of other human beings to mask their true intentions of a global aristocracy.  Those same rules apply to global politics, and nobody was ever supposed to give a member of the Axis of Evil, as George W. Bush always said of North Korea, a chance to be redeeming.  But what Trump exposed was the phony threat North Korea was to the war, provoking the Deep State to come after him even more vigorously and to attempt to inspire assassination attempts on Trump’s life, just as they did with President Kennedy.  All this mess started with these secret society members, such as Yale’s Skull and Bones, entering politics and bringing with them the philosophy of war to instigate trouble around the world so that they could be the firefighters to put out the fire they started themselves, which was certainly the case over oil in the Middle East.  All while ignoring the massive amounts of oil that were always in the United States and could have killed the enemy with competition and capitalism if they wanted to, and saved many lives and the dismemberment of innocent people.

This brings us to the ending of the Ukraine war, which was phony from day one.  When that war started, provoked by the Biden crime family for many reasons that only helped the Deep State maintain political control over the world, anybody who was flying a Ukrainian flag in the United States was seen as a fool.  People were catching on to this silly game and wanted an end to it.  The Deep State plan was to push Vladimir Putin into a war where he would lose and become the next China, just as Japan had forced China into a weakened position.  With Russia, the attack was to destroy it as a sovereign country.  And the same Deep Staters were trying to convince people that Putin had put Trump in office and that all of them needed to be removed to have a good world.  But the Deep State, run by these secret society losers, went too far, and this process of Trump exposing it shattered the illusion of self-government.  In a somewhat honest election, Trump was re-elected to the White House, and all the wars around the world that had been brewing are suddenly going to have cold water thrown on them all.  And that’s how the Deep State gets destroyed because the only real power they had was just as the Skull and Bones people had, through secrecy and mutual dirty laundry on each other to bond them to villainy.  And start wars to drive the political narrative, allowing them to gain control.  It was a game that suddenly ended in 2024 for the first time in human history.  Secret societies were dedicated to these war-like causes long before the Skull and Bones people came along.  However, this trend extends back to all known times, and it only ended when Trump went back to the White House, backed by a government of people who had expressed control over their government for the first time.

What To Learn From Howard Kazanjian’s ‘A Producers Life’: Hollywood was never going to be able to help a bad product like Kamala Harris

This will be fun; I could do it every day for years.  I’m not sure how useful that would be, but I’d enjoy it.  And that is explaining to Democrats why they lost the 2024 election.  The first answer is that election fraud was harder for them.  They still cheat in many places, have been caught, and will get into trouble over it.  In these areas of the country that have still been counting ballots weeks after the election in November of 2024, there is only one reason: introducing false ballots to change the outcome.  And in those places, voter ID is a problem, and so are the mathematical trends.  You don’t win in all these national elections, and, in strange places, trend the other way.  That might happen in random spots, but not like this.  Many of these House and Senate seats were stolen for Democrats to keep those two government bodies from sliding even further to Republicans.  It will be easy to prove, and the Trump Justice Department will be able to prosecute those cases efficiently.   But the point remains: if Democrats can’t cheat, they can’t win.  That also makes this perspective that has been going on with Democrats about Hollywood even funnier.  They believed that Hollywood support from celebrities and the visual effects ads they had access to with people like Steven Spielberg would turn people toward their side.  Yeah, that was never going to happen, and I’ve known that for a long time from very personal experience with Hollywood.  They don’t have that kind of power, and they never did.  They only illusioned themselves by talking about these things within their inward culture. 

I just finished reading a great book I promised myself I’d read if Trump won the election.  And boy, is it a real treasure; it’s the autobiography of the film producer Howard Kazanjian, ‘A Producer’s Life,’ and it was a wonderful experience.  I rarely get to read something that good, and it’s not a book intended for mass audiences.  Maybe only 100,000 people worldwide would be interested in it, and most of them would likely be film students.  The book came out in 2021, but I was too busy these last couple of years, even with all my reading, to sit down and enjoy a book like that.  Howard is one of my favorite film producers of all time, and he’s been close to some of my favorite movies, from the Star Wars and Indiana Jones films to Cool Hand Luke and The Wild Bunch.  He worked with Hitchcock and many big-name Hollywood directors through the latest golden age of cinema, from the late 70s to the early 80s.  He told many stories about things that have gone on behind the scenes in many movies that I found fascinating, and I wouldn’t let myself think like that because of all the other stuff politically going on.  There wasn’t time to enjoy anything like that, so the first thing I did once Trump was elected was give myself a bit of a vacation and read a few books like this that I had been thinking about for a long time.  In it, Howard essentially confirms everything I have been saying about Hollywood.  Much of the appeal of that industry is fake, in front of the camera and especially behind it. Hollywood is about creating illusions, not truth, and in this climate of free media and free speech, anything phony is going to be rooted out and rejected.  Someone should have told the Democrats that, but they were so obsessed with their ability to make images that suckers buy in a darkened theater that they missed the trend.  And they have lost miserably because of it.  And they aren’t making any corrections to change anything, which is fine with me.

All this has provoked in me remembrances of my exposure to Hollywood culture, and I quickly learned how phony it was.  I was always just as interested in what happened behind the camera as I was in front of it, and quickly, you see what kind of mentality goes on in these Hollywood productions.  Most people in the industry do not think like Howard; he’s one of the great ones, but most think people are so stupid that they can manipulate the thoughts of mass society with the Hollywood image.  They miss the whole point, and the entire industry misses the truth.  Because they purposely live in a kind of entertainment bubble, they don’t get to talk to real people much, except when they do press junkets and comic cons and lose touch with reality.  I tasted that when I worked on projects, and a producer gave me my trailer to reside between takes. The line producers pamper you with union-standard assumptions.  I thought it was all interesting and for me, a dream come true career wise, but not very practical or sustainable.  I have the opposite way of viewing things as they do; I expect the people being photographed to be good people, turn on the camera, and capture a little bit of their natural essence, and that what is sold is worth investing your time and energy into. 

Ultimately, that’s why the Hollywood machine could never overtake Trump: He isn’t just an image; he’s a lot more in real life than what a camera can capture.  And Kamala Harris’ people thought that if they raised over a billion dollars, they could purchase an image and that voters would be dumb enough to buy it like they would the next Hollywood blockbuster.  That if the movie preview was good but the movie sucked, that people would still buy it.  And, of course, they didn’t.  Reading that book about Howard Kazanjian reminded me of how out of touch many in the movie industry are, even when they are the best in their field.  Ultimately, Hollywood is too slow and clunky to be relevant in the modern world, which is one reason their industry is dying.  The unions will not allow them to keep pace with YouTube content creators, and that’s where entertainment is headed.  People aren’t going to wait for three years for movie content anymore, teased well in advance.  And they aren’t going to buy the Hollywood product of making an image of a president of the United States without the substance of doing anything meaningful as a leader.  It all comes down to public opinion, and just because Hollywood can make an image, they can’t make people buy into it.  That is precisely the trouble the woke new Captain America movie is struggling with regarding test audiences.  The producers won’t be able to cut together enough coverage to fix the film because its merit is terrible, just like Kamala Harris.  More fancy camerawork won’t change the fact that people don’t like the characters in bad situations.  What would you expect if it’s a woke storyline coming from Disney these days? People aren’t going to buy it.  And they rejected Kamala for the same reasons.  Hollywood couldn’t make her.  Hollywood was, and will always be, a reflection of what people want to buy.  Not the creators of what people do buy.  That is a lesson Hollywood has never learned, which is why they are now perplexed.  And also why I do not work in that industry.  I can’t do the phony thing, for me, it has to be real.

Brazilian Communists Attack Jair Bolsonaro and 36 Others: The common strategy of leftists throwing their political rivals in jail and using election fraud to gain and keep power

While we have been celebrating the election of Trump, there is still a lot going on in the world that has significant problems, and it indicates that this fight is very much global and far from over.  We may have taken a stand against the tide of international communism, but it’s still very much a problem, as we saw the evidence of in Brazil with the phony indictments of Jair Bolsonaro and 36 others accused by the newly put in place communist government there of inciting a coup de tat against the official government, as indicated by the Federal Police in a 884-page report—(that’s why we can never allow police states to have too much power).  Bolsonaro is known worldwide as the Brazilian version of Trump, and the playbook they are using against him is essentially the same as the lawfare that was applied to Trump in the United States.  Now Trump, because we essentially have a Constitution that limits the power of government, was able to essentially beat the charges in America one essential element, and by a very narrow margin, by limiting election fraud in 2024.  And only that because Trump’s lead was too big to rig.  However, as we saw in many House and Senate races in the weeks after the election, the slow trickle of ballot counting of illegal voters continued to keep the margin of victory in those two houses of Congress to a minimum.  The seat gains could have been and should have been, much greater.  But globalism is still a problem everywhere, especially in states that don’t have control of the voting machines and have loose election laws that allow for cheating with a lack of voter ID.  In places like Brazil, the global communist mob is essentially the ones who are counting the ballots, so they removed Bolsonaro after the last election after they tried to stab him to death in public.  And now, because the polling shows that at the next election in Brazil, Bolsonaro will win easily, they are accusing him of all the same kinds of things they did to Trump, hoping to control the elements of the next election by essentially putting their political rival in jail. 

Don’t forget that to throw Bolsonaro out of office; they brought Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva out of jail to run as the communist representative.  All this action against Bolsonaro occurred right after a visit from Xi Jinping with Lula, where they discussed the future of Brazil and the need for them to suppress the populist movement rocking the world.  Next door in Argentina, they recently elected Javier Gerardo Milei, who has become another kind of wild man Trump, and he is reforming the country quickly with their version of MAGA, and it has global markets in a tailspin.  So there is an urgency for these global communists, who are led by centralized banking and the influence of the World Economic Forum, using the United Nations as their mask, to stop the bleeding.  The world doesn’t want communism, and it’s being rejected everywhere.  And their typical strategy is now evident for all to see.  If Trump didn’t have the American due process system of rights in the Constitution and enough free speech to dramatically force election fraud underground, he would be facing right now hundreds of years in prison for the made-up January 6th insurrection of 2021.  It was made up because it was heavily inspired by internal insurgents to provoke a mob of already angry protestors who were upset to see Trump go from his first term.  Trump wisely played by the rules and didn’t try to hold on to power through force, even though it was apparent what was happening.  Because he played the game the right way, and the people jailed for January 6th were so dramatically abused, people showed up and voted overwhelmingly, making it too big for the communists to rig, and they lost the general election.  But they did steal away several Senate seats and seats in the House, giving Republicans a very slim majority. 

That same game of election fraud goes on worldwide, and it’s how many of these South American countries have gained and held power.  From what we have learned now, we should never have voting machines connected to the internet in any fashion.  If we aren’t counting paper ballots from one day of voting by a person with a photo ID, we aren’t trying to secure our elections from fraudulent activity.  And for America, a very narrow window has opened to allow us to take back our country from this silent menace of global communism, and China is the face of that movement.  But don’t get lost in all the fancy utensils; the World Economic Forum is behind most of these global insurrections as they prop up the effort through finance.  That is the glue that holds global communism together, and it’s the real fight we are all involved in, whether or not we like it.  What is happening to Bolsonaro and the innocent people of Brazil, in general, is part of the communist playbook of unrestricted warfare.  They don’t care how it gets done so long as it does.  They mean to capture the means of self-expression to advance communism in every way possible, from free speech to elections.  And they don’t care if people’s feelings are hurt.  They have been performing a global insurrection to overthrow all forms of privately held capitalism and to replace it with centralized control of the United Nations as socialists like Antonio Guterres oversee it.  All roads to this behavior lead back to the work of Karl Marx.  Everything on the political left is rooted in Marxism.

Bolsonaro is supposed to attend Trump’s inauguration, and the pressure Trump is about to apply to the world may destroy the fingers of the Deep State that operates everywhere in the background again, controlled by international finance that wants communism as a stable means of protecting their investments from the human sentiment of personal fulfillment.  But because of these indictments, he’ll unlikely be able to attend.  I think the action in Brazil will be similar to what it was in the United States; people will show up overwhelmingly in the next election to elect Bolsonaro.  They picked him the last time, but it was only in certain areas where Lula pulled ahead in the aftermath to win the election, just as was done to Trump in 2020.  But because Trump won, the globalists are desperate, and they know the populist movement is coming for them, and people have a right to it.  The rights of individuals worldwide have not yet been established as they have been in the United States.  And because of that assumption, people did fight back peacefully with an election.  And if the election didn’t work, it was poised to get bloody.  And the globalists have lost their ground in America, even if they are still a big problem.  They will continue to be for quite some time.  But at least it has been established that they don’t have a right to our national sovereignty.  Just as they don’t in Brazil.  So, electing Trump is only part of the puzzle.  There is a lot more work to do.   We can’t let Bolsonaro be put in jail so that the communist forces there can stay in power.  They have to be destroyed, just as China must be destroyed as a communist power and asset to the World Economic Forum’s shadow government of manipulators from the mountains of Davos, pulling the strings of international finance.  Brazil will have its day to inspire a MAGA movement globally, but first, we have to see things as they are and support Bolsonaro in Brazil for the crimes that are being committed against him, to keep communism in power, against the wishes of people who had an election stolen from them the first time.

The Archaeology of Space: A lot of minds need to be shattered

With the same kind of vivacious denials, the narrative of human civilization is as edited and denied as the election fraud of 2020, and for all the same reasons.  The truth, which is being uncovered quickly through decentralized media and studies in these matters that exceeds traditional scholarship, is that for many tens of thousands of years, a global race of very tall people worshipped the stars and had very advanced understandings of planetary movement.  They were hinted at in the Bible as that wonderful collection of documents gives us a hint into a past that very little evidence survived due to the  amount of time that we are talking about.  We have all over the earth, which can be seen on Netflix now with Graham Hancock’s Apocalypse series some of the emerging evidence, the obvious hints at a very ancient past.  But, the narrative, largely for continued control over earth’s populations has been to deny all this aggressively.  Which is why the election of 2024 was so important, and why the current established order has to collapse and be destroyed, essentially.  Because the fight has been to hide a lot of things from the past and once we get out into space as human beings, routinely, and we open up archaeological study that extends to other planets, we are going to find out a lot more soul-shattering details about our place in the universe than what that Netflix show, Ancient Apocalypse has shown.  But it’s a reality we have to face and its going to happen very quickly over the next couple of years.

As Graham Hancock talked about his Ancient Apocalypse Netflix series, which has a lot of faces melting, on the Joe Rogan Experience he mentioned that during the filming he was banned from the Cahokia Mounds Park just outside of St. Louis, for the same reasons that he was banned from Serpent Mound during the previous season.  What Graham was proposing was that the Cahokia complex was much more like ancient Mesopotamia, and the Aztecs and Mayans than some hunter and gatherer Indians who were peaceful and built a few mounds to worship the sun.  I actually have some very direct experience with this phenomena that I was involved in a long time before Graham Hancock became famous for his journalism into these matters.  Way back in 1997 after the Titanic was doing great movie business my brother lived in Los Angeles and a bunch of investors wanted to make a movie of their own and get in on the Hollywood fun.  So I wrote a script on an idea I had called The Lost Cannibals of Cahokia, which was an outrageous adventure story that was a crossover between the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Indiana Jones adventures.  And when I turned it in to the agents and the Wilshire Blvd producers and money people, their faces melted by how violent and outrageous it was.  And at some point about a decade of shopping the script around, several really big names in entertainment were wanting to partner up to get the movie made. But the real heart of the problem with the script was that at the core of it I had explored the cause of the demise of the Cahokian culture, and all cultures for that matter, which is a theme I explore in everything I do.  And it didn’t make people very happy, to say the least.  My script went on to win several awards at various film festivals and was seen by a lot of people who really liked it.  But they couldn’t get their minds around the central premise which attacked directly assumptions about humanity that were sacred cows.  I was told that if I wanted to make the movie that we could do all the horror and adventure elements, but that we’d have to rework the central premise.  And I was offered a lot of money for it, in the millions of dollars.  But I shelved it for a later day because my favorite parts of the story were the things they wanted to throw out.  And I decided to put my attention more into political matters because the world wasn’t quite ready for the things I was interested in.

So I understood why so many people were upset over Graham Hancock’s proposals about Cahokia, and many sites along the ancient Mississippi River, where its obvious there was a very established culture during the Archaic period and that they were trading with South America, establishing the settlement at Easter Island, and all through the Polynesian Islands.  And that many of these cultures were considered advanced during the last Ice Age.  There is a vast conspiracy that is obsessed with keeping human beings from learning too much about their past beyond what the Bible discusses.  But the hints are everywhere and being talked about much more now, especially with Trump returning to office and dismantaling a lot of the out-of-date organizations that have been suppressing this information for thousands of years.  It’s not hard to see how and why, considering that Stonehenge is not that old and in a few thousand more years, there won’t be much left of it through the natural erosion process.  That is the same issue with the many pyramids around the world that date back just 3000 to 5000 BC.  The evidence at Gobekli Tepe for instance was buried purposely in Turkey and uncovered only to find that it is over 11,000 years old.  So by being buried, it preserved the site from erosive elements leaving us all to wonder just how much evidence from the past has been eroded away. 

Well, we’re going to find out, and with SpaceX’s Starship producing every 8 hours a new ship to go into space, we will quickly moved to a space economy during Trump’s next term.  And this is not just current politics, but something we have been moving toward since the days of Biblical reporting, even the central heart of the destruction of the Library at Qumran and the standoff with the Romans at Masada.  Governments have been hiding this issue from the public to maintain control over populations until essentially this century.  And now the lid is being blown off that long held secret.  And we’re going to get to the moon and Mars, and to the moons around Jupiter and Saturn and we’re going to find out that our history goes back much further than just colonies on Earth.  And many of our mythologies and assumptions are going to be shattered, and they need to be.  I have watched that process myself just over some of the sites on earth, and among people who were very smart and very rich and their faces melted over any suggestion of something happening beyond the accepted norms.  But we have to get ourselves ready because space archaeology will become an important field, and much of what has been suppressed as evidence on earth will no longer be able to be suppressed.  And we are going to learn a lot about ourselves, at a pace of change that will be astonishing.  I saw many years ago that this had to happen.  I was surprised by it when I saw how violent it made people just based on my script which many were involved with for the money it could have made.  But for me, it was much more personal, and important.  And ultimately, a sign of things to come.
