Send us a textIf you've ever felt blindsided by a sudden argument, a wave of self-doubt, or a two-hour scroll that leaves you craving quick fixes, this conversation puts language to the sabotage and gives you tools to rise above it. I unpack four common channels dark forces use to infiltrate our lives: relationships, thoughts, distraction traps, and mass hypnosis - and show you how to keep your field clear without living in fear.We get deep into relationship hijacking: why high-conscious partnerships attract interference, how entities amplify unresolved wounds, and the practical steps to cut cords and restore calm. I share how trauma neutralization changed my nervous system, why neutrality is not denial, and what it revealed about past abuse and the attachments driving it. You'll also hear how social media contagions mimic desire, the difference between true self-choice and urgency, and a simple re-entry ritual to reset your mind after scrolling. Then we zoom out to mass hypnosis: news as programming, policies that compress freedom, and how to practice awake consent without burning out. The path forward is leadership by example: asking calm questions, honoring soul lessons, and resisting the urge to control loved ones, even when you disagree. It's practical spirituality for a noisy world, grounded in compassion, boundaries, and steady action.Book a Dark Force Scan here.

A Long-Running Chinese Plot To Infiltrate The U.S. Infrastructure - "The Chinese Conspiracy" by John Mariotti "Not since The Manchurian Candidate have I read such a compelling thriller about global conspiracy.

Currently, Tren De Aragua has been identified as operating within 22 states in America. President Trump and the U.S. government have classified Tren de Aragua, MS-13 (Mara Salvatrucha), and cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations which now changes the strategies to disrupt, dismantle, and deplete these enemy organizations. DEA Agent Wes Tabor has served an entire career working large scale cases against cartels and transnational gangs. His work in Guatemala led to the creation of a gang intelligence system used to track MS-13 members. He has hit the Chicago stash houses of "Choppo" Guzman, worked cases involving the direct connections between a Columbian cartel and Hezbollah, and spent years in Venezuela. His investigations while stationed in Caracas exposed narco-states in Venezuela with the Cartel De Los Soles and Tren De Aragua.His recent book, INFILTRATE AMERICA, uncovers the rise of Tren De Aragua and other transnational gangs, their connections to terrorist organizations, and their ability to operate in America.
Send us a textConnect with me on https://www.bookclues.comHave you ever wondered about the real-life inspiration behind shows like "The Americans"? Shaun Walker pulls back the curtain on one of history's most audacious espionage operations in this riveting conversation about his meticulously researched book, "The Illegals: Russia's Most Audacious Spies and Their Century-Long Mission to Infiltrate the West."Walker reveals the extraordinary world of Russian "illegals" – spies who spend years, sometimes decades, living under completely fabricated foreign identities with absolutely no official connection to Moscow. Unlike traditional diplomatic spies, these deep-cover agents immerse themselves so thoroughly in their adopted countries that even their spouses and children may have no idea of their true identities. The training process alone is mind-boggling – five years of intensive preparation where recruits study everything from a country's school textbooks to its cultural nuances.The origins of this program stretch back to the Bolshevik revolutionary movement itself, when Lenin's underground party used false documents and code names to evade Tsarist authorities. After the 1917 revolution, these same techniques were repurposed for intelligence gathering, creating a tradition that continues to this day under Vladimir Putin – himself a former KGB officer who once worked in illegals recruitment.Most surprising is the program's continued relevance in our digital age. Despite biometric passports and advanced verification systems, Russia continues deploying illegals alongside newer tactics like social media manipulation. Walker's nine years of research, including access to the remarkable Mitrokhin Archive of smuggled KGB documents, provides unprecedented insight into this shadowy world where truth is stranger – and often more fascinating – than fiction.

In 2010, the world was stunned when the United States exposed a covert Russian spy network operating on its soil. Seemingly all-American families living in white-picket-fenced suburbia were in fact deep undercover Russian agents. Many had been living under assumed identities for decades, lying even to their own children. In this episode, journalist Shaun Walker speaks to Danny Bird about Moscow's longlasting ‘illegals' programme – perhaps the most audacious chapter in the history of espionage. He reveals how the roots of the operation reached back more than a century to before the Bolshevik Revolution; how the Soviet Union deployed it against supposedly ‘friendly' states; and how today's Russia reveres these spies as patriotic heroes.

North Korea has built a vast underground IT labor force that has secretly infiltrated U.S. and global companies through fraudulent job applications. Experts say nearly every Fortune 500 company has unknowingly hired a North Korean IT worker, despite efforts to prevent it. These operatives use stolen identities, fake documents, and accomplices in China and the U.S. to secure remote jobs, and the problem is only getting worse.We also discuss the growing concerns around America's water crisis.Featured Guests: Jeff Becker, general partner, Antler | Tom Ferguson, founder and managing partner, Burnt Island Ventures

Kelly Cates is joined by The i Paper's chief football writer Daniel Storey, Sports economist Victor A. Matheson & football finance expert Kieran Maguire, as they delve into the rising number of American owners across British football. It's 20 years since the Glazer family's highly-controversial and highly-leveraged takeover of Manchester United. Throughout those two decades, the Glazers have been the prime target of fan protests with “Glazers out” still ringing around Old Trafford. So over the course of this episode you'll hear why US investors are obsessed with British football, and how real are the concerns that US owners could collude to “Americanise” the traditions of English football from the removal of promotion and relegation to moving matches overseas and relocating clubs to other cities.

Shaun Walker, The Illegals (Knopf, 2025) is the definitive history of Russia's most secret spy program, from the earliest days of the Soviet Union to Putin's invasion of Ukraine, and a revelatory examination of how that hidden history shaped both Russia and the West.More than a century ago, the new Bolshevik government began sending Soviet citizens abroad as deep-cover spies, training them to pose as foreign aristocrats, merchants, and students. Over time, this grew into the most ambitious espionage program in history. Many intelligence agencies use undercover operatives, but the KGB was the only one to go to such lengths, spending years training its spies in language and etiquette, and sending them abroad on missions that could last for decades. These spies were known as “illegals.” During the Second World War, illegals were dispatched behind enemy lines to assassinate high-ranking Nazis. Later, in the Cold War, they were sent to assimilate and lie low as sleepers in the West. The greatest among them performed remarkable feats, while many others failed in their missions or cracked under the strain of living a double life.Drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews, as well as archival research in more than a dozen countries, Shaun Walker brings this history to life in a page-turning tour de force that takes us into the heart of the KGB's most secretive program. A riveting spy drama peopled with richly drawn characters, The Illegals also uncovers a hidden thread in the story of Russia itself. As Putin extols Soviet achievements and the KGB's espionage prowess, and Moscow continues to infiltrate illegals across the globe, this timely narrative shines new light on the long arc of the Soviet experiment, its messy aftermath, and its influence on our world at large.

In The Illegals: Russia's Most Audacious Spies and Their Century-Long Mission to Infiltrate the West, journalist Shaun Walker shares how agents were trained to blend into a target country and posed as citizens.

On today's episode: the untold history of Russia's deep cover spy programme. Shaun Walker is an international correspondent for The Guardian. He reported from Moscow for more than a decade, and his coverage of Russia's war in Ukraine was shortlisted for the Foreign Reporter of the Year category at the British 2023 Press Awards. In his new book, The Illegals: Russia's Most Audacious Spies and the Plot to Infiltrate the West, Walker explores the untold history of Russia's deep cover spy programme, following its evolution from the talented “great Illegals” of the 1920s and '30s up to the 21st century, when agents maintained their fake identities and loyalties even after the fall of the Soviet Union. These deep-cover missions - some remarkable feats of espionage, others high-profile failures - could last for decades. Walker shines new light on the long arc of the Soviet experiment and its messy aftermath - and how that hidden history shaped Russia and the West. Joining him to discuss the book is Carl Miller, the journalist, co-founder of the Centre for the Analysis of Social Media at Demos, and host of crime podcast Kill List.

In 2010, two decades after the Cold War had ended, ten Russian spies were arrested in America, having hidden their true identities from their friends, neighbours and even their children. They were part of a spy programme that had begun nearly a century earlier, when the revolutionary Bolshevik government began sending Soviet citizens abroad to pose as foreign aristocrats, merchants and students. These deep-cover missions - some remarkable feats of espionage, others high-profile failures - could last for decades. Drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews, as well as newly discovered archival material, Shaun Walker brings this history to life in The Illegals: Russia's Most Audacious Spies and the Plot to Infiltrate the West, a page-turning tour de force that goes to the heart of what became the most ambitious espionage programme in history.
