Really good shit. Your audio programs are great, too, by the way. Always looking forward to “hearing” your perspective. So damn much to read and research these days, so I leave your contributions for last, like James Corbett. I love James. But I knew you were special, too; legitimate-human-brilliant and wonderfully-talented. Seriously, I hope to hell you keep it up and evolve, indefinitely. People need you, especially those who don’t know your work yet.

I’m always surprised how slow & cautious the process of the pros like Napolitano is to report what they must know by now is the truth; the judge’s judgment when suggesting/asking if it was a “controlled leak,” like COVID. He’s been around long enough to know, with absolute certainty, the soldier’s security clearance was well planned in advance, as well as the leaked info was “micro-managed,” not just controlled. As the Judge suggested, but didn’t speculate all the way, the truth about “who and why” is the much bigger story buried by this nonsense describing this soldier as a radical. Fuck sake, man, the FBI and the people-public they scull-fuck are to predictably stupid, but Napolitano doesn't need to be as his age and status. I’m always hoping he’ll finally let go of caution. He understands as a seasoned Judges, Ignorance or the management of intelligence can always be improved, though not always guaranteed. But like the comedian Ron White once said, “you can’t improve upon “stupid;” knowing better—but fucking it up in spite of knowledge.

lubina,

Thank you for the compliments. I accept them with humility. I have so many areas in which my work can be improved which I already know about, and then there's the "unknown unknowns" (to borrow a phrase from an intelligent warmonger).

As for "slow and cautious", its not a bad strategy early on into a newly emerging topic. As for the "US Intel Leaks" I declared my caution based on the adage that its wiser to assume incompetence before assuming a complex conspiracy. But, I think we're far enough down that rabbit hole now to declare Teixeira as a patsy. As I maintained all along, its about who/how the cross-posting began, which we still know nothing about. What we do know is that he has been framed, as evidenced by the idiots at the FBI exposed by Johnson. Its the same old story, the best lies have a bit of truth in them, and JT did "leak" to his acolytes but only an idiot would think that was the entire scope of the operation. The second flag, of course, is good ol' Bellingcat lighting the fuse.

Thanks for the compliment on the podcast. I've decided to stick with the Week in Review format for a while. I like it. I get to run down the newsletter articles and throw in all the other stuff which I found of interest. Thus, it becomes a product of its own rather than just being a reading of an article or a summary of them. I was pleased to see that for Ep. 2/Week 18 there was a high engagement with the references I provided. I consider the references important and this sealed the deal for me on continuing with WiR. So, you can look forward to more of it, hopefully with a 15 to 25 min episode length. I might even record some more guitar for intro/outro to spice that up a bit.

Ciao!
