Onward Through The Fog
Weaving reality before our very eyes
UPDATE 5 AUGUST 2024: It’s almost like we can see this stuff coming…crashing economy is the new shock headline in the ongoing effort to keep you from seeing the wires and trap doors. Tech sector and Bitcoin crashing, “recession” being tossed around…quick look over here!
UPDATE 7 AUGUST 2024: in the onslaught of outrages, I completely forgot to mention the CrowdStrike fiasco on 19 July…another major distraction, possibly a test run, and caused by the same folks who brought us the Russian Collusion Hoax. (RIP Seth Rich)
Folks with memories longer than a gnat’s eyelash will recall that on June 27, 2024, Joe Biden went head-to-head with Donald Trump in a “debate” with no audience, televised from CNN’s studios in Atlanta. As I write this sentence, that was 35 days ago.
In that time, Biden was vanished, Trump was shot, KaMAla Harris was canonized, the Ukraine all but collapsed, Israel started bombing Lebanon and Iran, there was some highly offensive event in Paris, Russia traded a convicted Mockingbird agent for a highly skilled convicted assassin, Bitcoin became a mainstream financial asset, and essentially the entire planet turned inside out. If we expand the window by a couple of weeks, we can include Hurricane Beryl slamming East Texas, killing a couple dozen people.
Any one of these stories would have filled a month’s worth of news cycles just a decade ago. The attempted assassinations of Gerald Ford and Ronald Reagan each topped the headlines for months. A story as big as Harris being anointed without receiving a single vote should have caused an uproar in the month leading up to the Democrat convention. Two wars that have dominated news cycles for years faded to the “oh yeah and…” file. When Hurricane Alicia slammed Houston in 1984, it topped news cycles for a month, but Beryl blipped and died.
I have worked professionally in media and entertainment since the age of 12, I’ve been a stringer for many of the world’s largest networks, I’ve won awards for my writing, video and film work — and I have NEVER seen anything like this.
I really don’t know where to start unravelling this ball of yarn, so let’s start at the beginning…June 27, 2024, at around 8pm EDT.
The Trump-Biden “debate” was clearly a set-up. The rules and setting were unlike any other “debate” between presidential front-runners. Trump was uncharacteristically subdued, which leads me to believe he had some inkling of what was happening, and he didn’t want to muddy the headlines with anything he said or did. In an interview days later with George Snuffalluffigus, Biden said he was distracted by Trump’s histrionics, which never happened. Biden was apparently reciting lines from a prepared narradigm set before the “debate”. I suspect the Trump angle was supposed to distract the masses while Biden was quietly sidelined in the background.
For the next two weeks or so, while the GeezerMedia fabricated consensus, Biden was the lead word in hourly headlines, with the attendant wailing and gnashing of teeth, because they had planned a completely different narradigm and had nothing else to run with. Then, just as suddenly, Biden vanished literally and figuratively. I suspect he is dead, but that’s another column. He was instantly (less than 24 hours or one news cycle later) replaced by KaMAla Harris in a clear coup d’etat, and one of the most distasteful and disliked political figures in America simply stepped into the Front-Runner Slot, without a single vote being cast, nor a legitimate nomination process.
Part 2 of the coup was to take out the Republican leader and replace him in a similar manner. In what is unmistakably an operation run by the FBI and Secret Service, a kid with a rifle was allowed to perch in clear view of the audience, media were positioned for high-resolution close-ups of heads exploding, and Trump ungraciously turned his head a fraction of an inch at the last moment, and spoiled the entire narradigm. The images were iconic, but not quite what the coup planners wanted.
A Made-It-Happen-On-Purpose (MIHOP) operation is the only scenario that fits all the available facts.
Despite having their narradigm shot to hell (pardon the pun), the GeezerMedia Machine has been forced to run with the script in hand, only now they don’t have two Constitutionally ineligible women heading up both campaigns, truly complicating things.
As an aside, it is very curious — to me at least — that KaMAla Harris, Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy, and JD Vance’s wife are all of Indian descent. I don’t know what this means, but it’s beyond coincidence.
Harris’ PR machine, headed by David Plouffe, leapt into action, scrubbing all unsavory items from her past and painting her black instead of Southern India brown. Magically, a book ostensibly written by Harris appeared on the market, trying to make cohesive sense out of the verbal chunks that routinely spew from her gob. All video of her is being flooded with a folksy street-talking chick in casual clothes, “spontaneously” taking calls from the Obama clan on speaker phone surrounded by cameras while using a lavaliere microphone. Ya sure you betcha.
I can’t believe it’s not butter.
It wasn’t enough to get folks off the topic of bungled assassinations. So, cue the Moulin Rouge and every physically, morally and spiritually repulsive meme, theme and dream they could come up with. Everything from Corpulent Christ, to drag racers, to torch singers…throw it ALL in there. Make sure we offend just about every human on the planet. Heck, even Muslim clerics were complaining about the wholesale degradation of Christian religious icons. That’ll get the rubes off the scent.
Whoops! Didn’t work.
Cue Nuttyahoo’s trip to Washington DeeSee, where he received the intel, money and weaponry…and naturally the blessing of St. Harris…to target and take out a Palestinian living in the capital of a non-combatant nation. Surely apocalyptic visions of mushroom clouds (pale rider, anyone?) will change the subject. That’ll distract the rubes!
Oops, new video released of running snipers on dangerous rooftop slopes in Butler Park, recorded by one of the folks shot in the failed assassination attempt, where 155 law forcers where apparently distracted by Krispy Kreme. Seriously, this Crooks guy was a master of disguise and stealth, and might have had a brilliant career as a security consultant.
Cue the shiny Bitcoins and financial freedom baubles. Damn, bad jobs report. Cue the dire situation in the Ukraine. Ugh! No one cares anymore. Cue China’s pending invasion of Taiwan. Uh oh, no one’s buying a collapsing economy going to war over an island.
Obviously, the Deepsters are doing everything possible to blow dust in our eyes. They screwed up and their machinations aren’t working. They needed the shock-and-awe of Trump’s death to make it all happen, and they missed. Even worse, the wires and trap doors are visible, and the illusion is destroyed. Once the magic is exposed, it can’t be recovered. It has become so painfully obvious that I am literally shocked that the US military hasn’t begun arresting bureaucrats and politicians in DeeSee. Perhaps they are following the advice of Napoleon Bonaparte, and not interfering with an enemy in the process of committing suicide. Let’s hope that is the case on both sides.
Rather than being comforting, though, this is a most dangerous moment. The Beast is cornered.
The only way out for the Magicians at this point is something so big, so horrendous, so mind-blowing, so devastating, that the past 35 days will disappear in a puff of smoke. I have no doubt that right now, somewhere deep in the bowels of DeeSee, a withered bony finger is poised over the Ultimate Distraction Button.
All propaganda requires a substantial amount of bait to get the rubes to swallow the hook. It is incumbent on the aware reader to dismiss everything coming out of all media. Once we accept any part of the bait, the hook will be set. Once we think, “Oh, well that’s true, so everything else must be true too,” we will end up grilled on the Deepster dinner table.
Every news outlet, social media platform, television, radio, computer screen, and “smart” phone has been or is being weaponized at every scale. Nothing you see, hear or read can be trusted. Chatbots, algorithms, filters, geo-fencing, and targeted feeds are being deployed to ensure you see and hear only what is intended for your consumption. And yes, we’re getting the same thing here in Asia.
This may sound alarmist, but I have worked for the Magicians. I know how the tricks are done, and I’m watching them happen in real time. What I’ve never seen is this type of full-court press, with all stops pulled and timelines accelerated. We saw this with the Damnpanic, but the narradigm was built over several years. The current narradigm was supposed to run up to November 5th, and they’ve had to squeeze it all into a month.
We are supposed to be shocked every few weeks, so each shock has time to worm its way into our minds, but they are coming daily now and the masses are getting numb. They don’t have time to process and recover before the next one comes, and so folks tune out. This is a war mentality, where the mind begins defending itself by rejecting the senses.
The only thought I can leave the dear reader with is, be prepared. Keep reminding yourself that it is a script and we are watching a show. Be vigilant and be very selective about what information you take in. If you have a hobby, now is the time to go whole hog on it — garden, build ships in bottles, read those classic books you’ve been meaning to get to for 30 years — do literally anything BUT listen to the siren-song narradigm.
This is an extremely dangerous moment in history. I can’t think of an analogy with the same scope and scale of what we are witnessing, and I haven’t even touched on events in Europe and Asia. At the same time, it is highly alluring to watch it happen, knowing that generations to come will be analyzing this moment for a long time.
Like Perseus, we can only gaze upon these Medusan events in a reflective surface, lest we fall victim to the hideousness of it all.
Which brings us nicely to our movie suggestion of the day: 7 Faces of Dr. Lao (1964), one of my all-time favorites, and an amazing acting tour de force by Tony Randall. Hopefully, it will lighten the mood a bit.

Brilliant ...overview, diagnosis, and presentation. This is why we need the wisdom and experience of "old timers" who have lived history, recall with clarity, and have the words and means to share. Take care, stay safe. Greetings from Texas ... Go Texit!
While you are correct that we are "watching a show" ,it is less clear yet very true that millions, Billions of lives are being disrupted or ended by those forces of evil in DC and elsewhere. Unless good people stand up and fight by refusing to allow this charade to continue we are doomed. I don't mean voting. I mean utterly refusing to participate in the 'show', to become stoic in our rejection of all politics, stop supporting, instead withholding all financial and other support for what is now an illegitimate regime in DC in it'$ entirety. If Americans will not defend themselves from those who are looting , enslaving and dehumanizing them the battle is already lost. The choice is clear. Freedom from government of any stripe. By whatever means necessary. Working eithin their system has failed for 200 years. Stop legitimizing these criminal war mongers.
