War Predicted, And Here It Is

For decades, the U.S. government has warned that Iran is on the brink of re-igniting its nuclear weapons program.

We’ve heard this before — in the early 2000s, during the Obama years, under the first Trump administration, and again under President Biden. The language changes slightly. The urgency is always “imminent.” The proof is always “new.” And yet the story somehow never quite resolves.

Now, Washington says it has fresh intelligence that Iran is once again moving toward a nuclear capability.

Clayton and Natali Morris on Redacted News dig into the latest U.S. military skirmish in Iran, joined by Deep Focus commentator John Kiriakou (formerly with the CIA) and The National Conversation commentator Douglas MacGregor (formerly a colonel in the U.S. Army).

(EDITOR’S NOTE: Iran has closed the Straight of Hormuz, so oil shipments through the straight will close for now. About one-fifth of the global oil supply travels through the straight. Analysts are now estimating we’ll see a 5 or 10 cent per cent hike in oil prices…

Patrick De Haan at Gas Buddy Guy predicts we’ll see a new national average above $3 a gallon, perhaps as high as $3.10-$3.15. The level of the increase could get steeper if the war continues much longer.)

JFK Data: ‘There’s A Bombshell’

The long awaited John F. Kennedy Files, or at least the remaining unredacted files, have finally been released on the orders of President Donald Trump. Many of the pages are still being digitized, but fascinating details are indeed emerging.

Kennedy’s assassin Lee Harvey Oswald was apparently ‘recruited’ by a CIA agent, and was closely surveilled by the KGB when he lived in the USSR. Other revelations pertain to the Cold War and President Kennedy signing off on covert operations to destabilize Fidel Castro’s Cuba.

The entirety of the material is still being combed through, but for a deep dive into what we know, Piers Morgan has brought together former CIA covert operations officer Mike Baker, author and JFK expert Jefferson Morley, former CIA officer & whistleblower John Kiriakou and Michael Franzese, a former American mobster, for their expert opinions. here’s more from Piers Morgan’s show Uncensored.

With the release of the new JFK files a lot of people were expecting: “here is the smoking gun document!”

But there is so much in here that the media won’t mention or put together because it requires knowledge of the event, the people involved, organizations, different countries, and being able to read through hand written notes. After meticulously going through many documents and posts (without the help of Ai) we have put together a comprehensive list on who was behind the JFK murder and why it happened along with a $100K bounty.

Learn how Lee Harvey Oswald purchased the gun he used in the assassination from Interarmco, a CIA gun-running front. Also, none of the U.S. Secret Service records have been included. Have they all been destroyed? Join Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts from Edge of Wonder.

Should We Abolish The CIA?

One of the CIA’s most ardent critics and watchdogs — former CIA agent John Kiriakou — warns against hastily abolishing the CIA. That might seem like the fastest way to resolve the agency’s many abuses, but Kiriakou says such a move wouldn’t change anything.

He should know. He’s the whistleblower and author who made headlines for exposing the CIA’s use of torture during the War on Terror. With more than 15 years in the CIA specializing in counterterrorism, Kiriakou led high-profile operations, including the capture of senior al-Qaeda operative Abu Zubaydah. He subsequently blew the whistle on human rights abuses, which led to his imprisonment under the Espionage Act.

Now, he is a prominent advocate for transparency and whistleblower protections, and hosts the program CIA Declassified on Unifyd TV. In his show, he uses declassified documents to uncover untold stories of U.S. intelligence and its impact on global events. Here, he discusses the agency with Kim Iversen.

The Only Thing Stopping Them

What’s going to stop the impeachment drive? CNN says the President Donald Trump has an army of unflappable followers — deplorables we guess — who will stand by him through thick and thin. And that means backing him against jaded journalists like Oliver Darcy, who always looks like he’s been ingesting meth just ahead of his broadcasts. What kind of people waste their time watching such a wretched, lying polecat? You got it: Dumb-o Liberals! More from Mark Dice.

It doesn’t matter who’s committing corruption — when it’s wrong, it’s wrong. We need to call it out to save our republic. President Trump asked the Ukraine president for the DNC server there. It’s the same server that James Comey and the Justice Department have been looking for as part of the Russia investigation. If it was so important then, why is it so bad that Trump is requesting it now? WHAT’S ON THE SERVER? More from Glenn Beck.

Russia didn’t work, Ukraine was a bust, so now the Democrats want to impeach Trump over colluding with Australia? That’s not even a nice try. It’s pathetic. The Russia collusion hoax is the biggest political scandal in U.S. history, and the Trump administration is right to ask our allies to assist with the investigation into its origins. Then, BlazeTV host Lauren Chen joins Jon Miller to discuss the disgusting Antifa members who blocked an old woman attempting to attend an event hosted by Dave Rubin. More from the White House Brief.

Discussing the whistleblower at the center of the Trump impeachment inquiry and comparing the government and mainstream media’s treatment of this individual with other whistleblowers and how past administrations treated whistleblowers. We dive deep into these subjects with interviews with Thomas Drake and John Kiriakou. More from Ben Swann.
