The release of the JFK files is massive. Don’t believe the legacy media when they say there’s nothing there. There are 80,000+ pages to get through — but, one in particular, has caught Trish Regan’s eye. Meanwhile, have you heard of the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948? It was 'modernized' by Obama in 2012 and it's a major part of why you see so many media organizations floating a similar--highly simplistic--narrative. Declassifying these files goes a long way towards reestablishing the credibility of our institutions. It comes at an important time.

Our show opens with a short lesson about the father of Public Relations and a person who transformed marketing via propaganda. We talk a bit about Edward Bernays and how it leads to the Smith-Mundt Act and then Barack Obama and color revolution initiatives being waged on Americans. We use this as a backdrop to remind us how so much information out there has been tainted and is not truth, but propaganda. We get good news with another win for President Trump when RFK, Jr. was confirmed to become the new HHS Secretary. We learned that the man responsible for so much of the lawfare against Trump prior to his win, is still being orchestrated by Marc Elias. A big shout-out to Insurrection Barbie for her help with that. Also, Sen. Chuck Grassley (D-IA) confirms prosecutor Jack Smith withheld evidence from Donald Trump's lawyers. EPA Secretary Lee Zeldin said they found the “gold bars” that had been “thrown off the Titanic” and his team is working with the IG and the Justice Department to prosecute those involved. The DOGE subcommittee found over $2.7 trillion dollars in lost payments since 2003. We wonder why none of this has been reported and that when we notice Reuters writing negative pieces about DOGE. A quick look and we discover the DoD paid them for deception! Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) shows us what a blithering idiot she is when she says Musk and his team are “hacking” into the Treasury. It's a shame I have to explain basic concepts to people who pretend to be educated. At the same time, the CEO of LexisNexus says adding a robust ID system, getting rid of self-certification and monitoring back-end programs would save the country $1 trillion dollars annually. Former rep from Wisconsin, Dean Phillips wonders why Democrats don't get on board the DOGE movement? CNN Senior Legal Correspondent Paula Reid confirmed yesterday that Trump does have the authority to let Federal employees voluntarily resign for a severance package. That's a massive blow to the Federal union bosses. RFK, Jr.'s daughter-in-law, Amaryllis Fox Kennedy, a former CIA officer is going to join Trump's intelligence advisory board. AG Pam Bondi is suing Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY), AG Letitia James, and NY DMV Commissioner Mark Shroeder for defying federal law in protecting illegals. And, finally, Mad Maxine Waters is worried about what Musk and his team “have on them?” Please take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

On today's podcast, Tara and Stephanie discuss the history of the Smith Mundt Act and how it has been used to legally allow the U.S. government to censor social media, classify information they don't want the American public to know about, and turn our country into a surveillance state. Will Trump be able to truly bring back free speech? And will there ever be any accountability for the massive disinformation / misinformation propaganda from the Biden-Harris admin that's created chaos in our country for the past 4 years?

Today's show opens with yet another new addition to the Trump team! This time we welcome another former Democrat, Tulsi Gabbard to aid in the policies and initiatives of the Donald Trump campaign. At the same time Gabbard was discussing having just left Arlington National Cemetery on the anniversary of losing 13 Americans in the Biden-Harris surrender and retreat from Afghanistan, CNN's Jim Acosta called it a political stunt and repeated the debunked “suckers and losers” hoax. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. tells Tucker Carlson about how he was treated when trying to reach out to the Harris campaign. In the end, he said he was told it's not about her, but about the apparatus. Well, whether you call it the Deep State, the Apparatus or the unelected bureaucratic class, it's not democratic and is not anything close to a Constitutional Republic. Out of nowhere, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of META, decided to write Congress and admitted Facebook censored Americans at the behest of the White House and the Biden-Harris administration. We spend some time wondering about why now? I may have more thoughts on that in the coming days. But, remember, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas testified under oath that no one pressured anyone to censor speech. Remember, since 2015, Kamala Harris mocked the idea of a wall at our southern border? She often called it a Trump “vanity” project. It's amazing how she is stealing yet another Trump initiative and trying to make it her own. Even Axios had to call her out on that. For now, a judge has put a halt on a Biden-Harris plan to instantly give amnesty to over a million illegals. It's still working through the court system, but there is a block on yet another unconstitutional plan from this administration. How did the former Director of the US Secret Service and its current Acting Director find a way to lie under oath without technically lying? You put a policy in place where you say no requests for more resources will be approved. So, when asked, were any specific requests denied, they can say “none” given everyone knew those requests would fall on deaf ears. Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) once again finds himself lying and over-embellishing his history. In one instance, he acts as if he was selected by Harvard University to teach in China. That's untrue. And, he made it look like the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce awarded him, when they clearly never did. This all points to some infighting reaching a boiling point behind closed doors for Harris and Walz. They cannot figure out how to trust her in public and because she has changed her positions based on each new day's rewrites to the movie she's in, they can't trust Walz to know what to say, either. Finally, we close on an alarming study of mental health self assessments that have been collected on 8th, 10th and 12th grade students going back as far at 1991. Something happens around 2013-2014 that causes a sharp rise in feelings of depression and unworthiness in our youth. Could it be tied to when Obama canceled parts of the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948?

Today's episode is a replay of me filling-in on the nationally syndicated Erick Erickson Show. I opened with a complicit Legacy/mainstream media, using the approved talking-points and wording for both Tim Walz as well as JD Vance. It's amazing to see the repetition of the same words across all of media. I then cover several other subjects, stopping every now and then to chat with callers from around the country. We discuss the radical elements of Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), how many Democrats prefer policy over personality, and many are starting to see through the propaganda. To close out the show, I spend time weaving together the man responsible for convincing Americans to eat bacon and eggs for breakfast; how his techniques were used by Joseph Goebbels in Nazi Germany in developing principles for propaganda; how that led to the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948, making it illegal for Psychological Operations to be conducted by our government on American citizens; and, how in late 2012, President Obama repealed that restriction in the updated Defense Authorization Act that went into effect in 2013. We need to understand we are being psychologically manipulated throughout all of traditional as well as social media. When you learn how to see it, it becomes ineffective on you.

In this episode of the Back to the People Podcast, host Nicole Shanahan sits down with Weston Sager, a preeminent legal scholar on U.S. state media. The discussion opens with a history lesson on the Smith-Mundt Act, explaining how it was originally designed to prevent U.S. government-funded media content, intended for foreign audiences, from being distributed within the United States to avoid domestic propaganda. The conversation then focuses on the key changes brought by the 2013 Smith-Mundt Modernization Act, signed by President Obama, which lifted the ban on domestic dissemination. Back to the People Podcast with Nicole Shanahan
The year is 1948 and the world has just witnessed the worst of what governments will do to people when left unchecked with its power. America is the leader in the world, mostly due to the fact that Europe was a smoldering pile of rubble and all of its treasure was traded for bombs and tanks. The Americans, however, were very busy back at home plotting how they could control the continent from across an entire ocean. From the creation of the Smith-Mundt Act to the formation of the World Health Organization and NHS, the world kept spinning after the war and some of the control structures that remain to this day were installed during 1948. Israel & North Korea were formed on disputed land, and South Africa decided that its land dispute would be handled in a very particular way.

Biblical Citizen Let’s Roll with Kathleen and Brian Melonakos
Has government and media propaganda been increasing in America or are we just more sensitive to it? Propaganda HAS increased. We review how leaders used propaganda to prod Americans into World War I and the backlash against it spurred the passage of the Smith-Mundt Act in 1948. In 2012, during the Obama administration, many of the protections of this act were repealed, justified by the War on Terror. There have been proponents of propaganda in our own government for quite some time. How do we recognize it and become less vulnerable to it?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today's show opens with Tara Bull's Top 10 News items the Legacy/mainstream media likely didn't bother to tell you this week. I then add an honorable mention with the arrest of journalist Steve Baker by the FBI for his reporting of the events on January 6. In fact, I go through the four charges and then let you all in on a secret I had promised to keep until now. Steve already pulled all the footage of himself a the Capitol to be used in his defense to show he was not damaging, destroying, picketing, protesting or parading around the grounds. The reason we have so much confusion and derision in our country can be traced back to December 29, 2012, when Barack Obama signed HR 4310, The 2013 National Defense Authorization Act. Deep within the pages, in section 1078 is a provision the authorizes the use of propaganda inside the US, which had been previously banned since 1948 when the Smith-Mundt Act was passed. Hunter Biden just did a wonderful job in undoing all of the work his Father and his allies have been doing for the past 3+ years. The transcript of his deposition was released late yesterday and he wasted no time in confirming several details that had been denied by Joe Biden and the Legacy/mainstream media. I take you through several of the more entertaining passages and then close with a comment from Miranda Devine. We know Joe Biden was at the border. Today, I play a couple of comments from Border Patrol Union head Brandon Judd, demonstrating how they know the open border policies of this regime is exactly what they want. And, for emphasis, I play the sound bite again from DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas indicting they rescinded so many of the Trump policies it would take forever to list them all. Apparently we are meant to believe they have all the power in the world to undo the previous president's policies, but no power to implement any of their own. If you were on the fence about Nikki Haley, this should be the nail in the coffin. She just joined the same bandwagon that thinks the 6th Amendment, the right to a speedy trial, exists for the public and not the accused. What a filthy, disgusting display of anti-Constitutionalism. This is the very opposite of “rule of law” and an understanding of freedom and liberty. And, in closing, I have said before that Canada should be thought of as the canary in the coal mine, because as goes Canada, so goes the United States in terms of marching toward a woke, Authoritarian rule of government. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre just revealed a scandal involving the Trudeau government and members of Beijing's People's Liberation Army. The parallels to how the little Communist wanna-be in Canada and our own President cannot be denied. Take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

The group discusses various topics, and their agenda for 2023 sheds light on their vision for global governance. Here are the key aspects of their agenda: Centralized One World Governance: The Bilderberg Group aims to advocate for policies that promote centralized governance on a global scale. This involves consolidating power and decision-making, which may limit individual freedoms and local autonomy. Technological AI Beast System Control: The group recognizes the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and surveillance technologies. They aim to collaborate with powerful entities to develop an extensive AI-powered monitoring system, often referred to as the "beast system." This system would track and control individuals, potentially eroding personal privacy and autonomy. Economic Control: The involvement of influential business leaders within the Bilderberg Group contributes to the implementation of global economic policies. This includes the potential adoption of centralized digital currencies as a means of monitoring and controlling financial transactions, which will limit individual economic freedom. Manipulation of Media and Education: Media outlets associated with the Bilderberg Group may exploit their influence to shape public opinion, control narratives, and manipulate the masses. The reversal of the Smith-Mundt Act, allowing domestic dissemination of government-produced propaganda, can facilitate these efforts. Carbon Dioxide Control: The group supports the implementation of strategies to control carbon dioxide emissions. This may involve the use of smart devices and technologies to monitor and reduce individuals' carbon footprints. Military Arm: The Bilderberg Group acknowledges the importance of military power and control. They discuss strategies related to military operations and leadership within NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization), as well as coordinating strategic policies related to national security. What else are they talking about like the rise of AI robots? Technological Transhumanism / DNA Manipulation: The convergence of nanotechnology and AI is seen as an opportunity for certain entities associated with the Bilderberg Group to explore "bio economy" and DNA manipulation. This raises ethical concerns about personal autonomy and privacy. It is important to note that the Bilderberg Group operates as an off-the-record forum, and the specific details and outcomes of their discussions remain undisclosed. The agenda items mentioned here are based on available information and should be interpreted with caution. Regarding AI, the Bilderberg Group recognizes the potential of AI technology and its impact on various aspects of society. They engage with influential figures in the AI field, such as CEOs of companies like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google. The focus is on advancing AI for monitoring, control, and potentially integrating it into the envisioned centralized governance system. However, the specific details of their plans for AI implementation are not explicitly disclosed.

In this episode of the Christopher Scott Show, Christopher discusses section 501 of the Smith-Mundt Act, which allows the United States government to disseminate propaganda to foreign audiences. He also highlights the 2013 amendment to the act, which permits the spread of propaganda within the United States. Christopher argues that these tactics are reminiscent of those used by fascist regimes and calls for the repeal of this law.

The transcript and voiceover is from Whitney Webb's Speech to the First Annual Children's Health Defense Conference, October, 2022 Introduction and BackgroundFor years, the censorship of factual information that is inconvenient to certain powerful actors, including the US Federal Government and Big Pharma, has been steadily increasing as “information warfare” has become an ever present force in our lives.In a world where what were once obvious truths are under attack, even the very definitions of “journalist” and “journalism” have themselves become controversial and contested. Too often in this “information war”, the first casualty is the truth itself. Facts are rarely treated as sacred by the world's largest and most influential media outlets, but instead are treated as something to be twisted and manipulated for the benefit of their paying sponsors. In this environment, too many media personalities have become mercenaries for hire and, as a consequence, public trust in the media is cratering. Meanwhile, those who do aim to champion truth in their work are targeted, smeared and censored by tech companies and platforms aligned with “mercenary media”, unaccountable intelligence services, and out of control oligarchs.The following essay focuses on the ongoing insidious effort to normalize the censorship of factual information, the historical context of this war on dissenting voices, and how “journalism” today has increasingly become about protecting the powerful rather than holding them to account. Potential solutions to this existential crisis in journalism are also discussed.Journalism in Crisis: The War on DissentWith each passing day, it seems that Journalism is becoming less of a profession and more of a war zone. Indeed the difference between journalism and “information warfare” is becoming increasingly difficult to pinpoint.Whereas journalism continues to be defined as “writing characterized by a direct presentation of facts or description of events without an attempt at interpretation” – in practice, it has become a battlefield where the most powerful media outlets - that is, those closest to the centers of power – deliberately manipulate or omit facts to craft narratives that expressly benefit the powerful while also colluding to censor their more truthful competition. These media outlets act as mercenaries, with little or no regard for how their actions negatively impact our society and distort reality. Their allegiances lie not with the public, but with those with the deepest pockets.In doing so, in many cases these media mercenaries actively work to suppress the facts and malign those in journalism who do strive to champion the truth above all else. Instead of holding the powerful to account, many so-called journalists today act more as accessories to the crimes committed by the powerful against the public.Objective presentation of the facts, as far as the bulk of mainstream media is concerned, is dead and has been dead for some time. As a consequence, public trust in these media outlets has completely cratered. Yet, even the ostensible challenge to mainstream media, so-called independent or alternative media, is often troubled by similar issues, as the quest for clicks and fame can often supersede objective, factual reporting even outside the bounds of mainstream media. As a result, navigating the world of journalism has never been more difficult or more precarious than it is right now.But if some get their way, navigating the media landscape in search of truth will soon become impossible. There are major efforts, years in the making, to censor dissenting opinions under the guise of censoring “misinformation.” As many readers are undoubtedly aware, what was last year's “misinformation” with respect to COVID-19 injections has only recently undergone a dramatic change into “breaking news.” Yet, many of us who were right all along and were censored when factual information that is now recognized as true was erroneously labeled “misinformation,” have received no apologies or compensation from our lost income. In many cases, our old platforms have not been returned to us. The censorship hammer has not been wielded with incompetence, instead it has been and is being intentionally used to squeeze out those of us who would dare to speak the truth, no matter how inconvenient it may be at the time.As the online censorship onslaught continues, it is becoming increasingly normalized. Growing restrictions, deplatforming and its other manifestations have become so pervasive that many have simply come to accept it as a “new normal.” This “new normal” for free speech is as insidious as it has been gradual, as we are being trained to accept unconstitutional limitations on what we can express on the websites that dominate online socialization.The argument that is often deployed to dismiss concerns regarding online censorship is the claim that the dominant social media companies are private, not public, entities. However, in reality, the Big Tech firms that dominate our online lives, particularly Google and Facebook, were either created with some involvement of the U.S. national security state or have become major U.S. government and/or military contractors over the past two decades. When it comes to censoring and deplatforming individuals for claims that run counter to U.S. government narratives, it should be clear that Google-owned YouTube, and other tech platforms owned by contractors to the U.S. military and intelligence communities, have a major conflict of interest in their stifling of speech.The line between “private” Silicon Valley and the public sector has become increasingly blurred, and it is now a matter of record that these companies have illegally passed information onto intelligence services such as the NSA, for use in what are blatantly unconstitutional surveillance programs aimed at American civilians. All indications point to the military-industrial complex having now expanded into the military-technology-industrial complex.These days, one need only look at important government commissions — such as the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence, which was headed by former Google/Alphabet CEO Eric Schmidt — to see how this de facto public-private partnership between Silicon Valley and the national security state functions, and its outsized role in setting important tech-related policies for both the private and public sectors. For example, that commission, largely comprised of representatives of the military, intelligence community and Big Tech, has helped set policy on “countering disinformation” online. More specifically, it has recommended weaponizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) for the express purpose of identifying online accounts to deplatform and speech to censor, framing this recommendation as essential to U.S. national security as it relates to “information warfare.”There are already several companies competing to market an AI-powered censorship engine to the national security state as well as the private sector, for use against journalists and non-journalists alike. One of these companies is Primer AI, a “machine intelligence” company that “builds software machines that read and write in English, Russian, and Chinese to automatically unearth trends and patterns across large volumes of data.” The company publicly states that their work “supports the mission of the intelligence community and broader DOD by automating reading and research tasks to enhance the speed and quality of decision-making.” Their current roster of clients includes not just the U.S. military and the U.S. intelligence community, but major American companies like Walmart and private “philanthropic” organizations like the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.Primer's founder, Sean Gourley, who previously created AI programs for the military to track insurgents in post-invasion Iraq, asserted in an April 2020 blog post that “computational warfare and disinformation campaigns will become a more serious threat than physical war, and we will have to rethink the weapons we deploy to fight them.” In that same post, Gourley argued for the creation of a “Manhattan Project for truth” that would create a publicly available Wikipedia-style database built off of “knowledge bases [that] already exist inside many countries' intelligence agencies for national security purposes.” Gourley wrote that “this effort would be ultimately about building and enhancing our collective intelligence and establishing a baseline for what's true or not.” In other words, Gourley says we should let the CIA tell us what is true and what is false. He concludes his blog post by stating that “in 2020, we will begin to weaponize truth.” And, two years later, it seems that Gourley was right. That is what they have done.Since that year, Primer has been under contract with the U.S. military to “develop the first-ever machine learning platform to automatically identify and assess suspected disinformation.” That the term “suspected disinformation” was used is no accident, as many instances of online censorship have involved merely assertions, as opposed to confirmations, that censored speech, including censored journalism, is part of a nation state-connected or “bad actor”-connected disinformation campaign. While those campaigns do exist, legitimate and constitutionally protected speech that deviates from the “official” or government-sanctioned narrative are frequently censored under these metrics, often with little to no ability to meaningfully appeal the censor's decision. In other cases, posts “suspected” of being disinformation or that which are flagged as such (sometimes erroneously) by social media algorithms, are removed or hidden from public view without the poster's knowledge.In addition, “suspected disinformation” can be used to justify the censorship of speech that is inconvenient for particular governments, corporations and groups, as there is no need to have evidence or present a coherent case that said content is disinformation — one must only cast suspicion upon it in order to have it censored. Further complicating this issue is the fact that some claims initially labeled “disinformation” later become accepted fact or recognized as legitimate speech. This has happened on more than one occasion during the COVID-19 crisis, where journalists had their accounts deleted or their content censored merely for broaching issues like the lab-leak hypothesis as well as questions over mask and vaccine efficacy, among many other issues. A year or two later, much of this supposed “disinformation” has since become acknowledged as legitimate avenues of journalistic inquiry. The initial bout of blanket censorship on these topics was done at the behest of public and private actors alike due to their inconvenience to what had once been the prevailing narrative.In what appears to be the apparent fulfillment of Primer AI's pleas, the Biden administration has recently announced a push to “increase digital literacy” among the American public, while censoring also “harmful content” disseminated by so-called “domestic terrorists” as well as by “hostile foreign powers seeking to undermine American democracy.” The latter is a clear reference to the claim that critical reporting of U.S. government policy, particularly its military and intelligence activities abroad, is synonymous with “Russian disinformation,” a now-discredited claim that has been used to heavily censor independent media.Regarding “increasing digital literacy,” the policy documents from the Biden administration make it clear that this refers to a new “digital literacy” education curriculum that is currently being developed by the Department of Homeland Security, the U.S.' domestically-focused intelligence agency, for a domestic audience. This “digital literacy” initiative would have previously violated U.S. law, until the Obama administration worked with Congress to repeal the Smith-Mundt Act, which lifted the World War II-era ban on the U.S. government directing propaganda at domestic audiences.The Biden administration's war on domestic terror policy also makes it clear that the censorship, as described above, is part of a “broader priority” of the administration, which it defines as follows:“[…] enhancing faith in government and addressing the extreme polarization, fueled by a crisis of disinformation and misinformation often channeled through social media platforms, which can tear Americans apart and lead some to violence.”In other words, fostering trust in government while simultaneously censoring “polarizing” voices who distrust or criticize the government is a key policy goal behind the Biden administration's domestic-terror strategy. In addition, this statement implies that Americans not agreeing with each other is problematic and frames that disagreement as a driver of violence, as opposed to a normal occurrence in a supposed democracy that has constitutional protections for freedom of speech. From this framing, it is implied that such violence can only be stopped if all Americans trust the government and agree with its narratives and “truths.” Framing deviations from these narratives as national security threats, as is done in this policy document, invites the labeling of non-conforming speech as “violence” or as “inciting violence” through the fomentation of disagreement. As a result, those who post non-conforming speech online may soon find themselves being labeled as “terrorists” by the state if this policy is not reversed.So what does this mean for journalists? Must all journalists conform to government-approved talking points lest they be accused of “inciting violence” and “terrorism”? If a journalist reports truthful information that makes the public angry at certain government institutions, are they to be deemed a national security threat in such a framework? While such a scenario may seem fantastical to some, one need look no further than the case of Julian Assange, who is currently being treated as a terrorist for publishing factual information that was inconvenient to powerful factions that manage the American empire.Information warfare, when waged by the powers that be in this country, is a war on the truth. It is a war to replace the truth with a narrative that supports their needs, not ours. It is a war to distort reality and to manipulate the public to support policies that are against their best interests. While they may frame such measures as necessary to “protect” democracy, the elimination and imminent criminalization of legitimate speech and legitimate journalism is the true threat to democracy, one that should deeply disturb all Americans. If the national security state controls and enforces the only permissible narratives and the only permitted version of the “truth,” whether for journalists or everyday Americans, they will then also control human perception, and — as a consequence — human behavior. One could argue that this is the ultimate goal of so much of what we are facing today – total control over human behavior.Thankfully, for those that seek to “weaponize” the truth and stamp out dissent, the truth is not as easily manipulated and distorted as they may think. At a visceral level, people gravitate towards the truth. They may succeed in hiding the truth from many or even most of us for a time, but – once it comes out – it spreads like wildfire. Governments around the world, the biggest media outlets in the world and even groups like the World Economic Forum are desperate to “rebuild trust” with the public. Despite these efforts, polls indicate that the public trusts them less than ever before. They may deplatform the truth, they may censor the truth and they may imprison those who tell the truth or label them terrorists – but their lies and their distortions can never, ever replace it.Whitney WebbWhitney Webb has been a professional writer, researcher and journalist since 2016.

Let's be honest: propaganda is a bit of a dirty word nowadays. When you hear it mentioned in the media, it's almost always framed as a sinister tool of the bad guys -- but make no mistake: every country on the planet deploys propaganda on a regular basis. And the problem is escalating. In today's episode, Ben and Matt explore a stunning, often-ignored aspect of propaganda in the United States. About ten years ago, Uncle Sam quietly made it absolutely legal to lie to the American public.

Andrew For America discusses the recent nullification of the Smith-Mundt Act, which prevented the State Department from using propaganda in the U. S. to effect public opinion. He also summarizes the recent explosive interview between Joe Rogan and Dr. Peter A. McCullough which discusses the origins and available treatments of Covid-19. Andrew also talks about the idea that some quantum physicists believe that reality may be a computer simulation. Then Andrew talks about a new book called, "AI Superpowers: China, Silicon Valley, and the New World Order" by Kai-Fu Lee, Elon Musk's Neuralink, and the Metaverse.

During this episode, Matt Armstong, who was formerly a Governor on the Broadcasting Board of Governors (since renamed the U.S. Agency for Global Media), discusses the Smith-Mundt Act and public diplomacy. Matt is also the author of the upcoming book: The Right to Know: the War of Words and the Origins and Evolution of the Smith-Mundt Act. Also known as the U.S. Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948, Smith-Mundt was developed to regulate broadcasting of programs for foreign audiences produced under guidance by the State Department, and it prohibited domestic dissemination of materials produced by such programs. The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012 allowed for materials produced by the State Department and the U.S. Agency for Global Media to be disseminated within the United States. Matt makes the case that, ironically, there is a significant amount of disinformation related to the Smith-Mundt Act itself and asserts that there's a gross misunderstanding of the role of information in our foreign policy. Coupled with general risk aversion and a lack of vision for what tomorrow should look like, the United States appears to be lacking a sense of urgency. As just one example, the Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs position--essentially the chief international information operations officer of the State Department--has been vacant 40% of the time since 1999.

Its a big room tonight with contributions from INFIDEL PHARAOH, SMOKESTACK, RUCKUS, ODD MAN OUT, KIMI & CHOPPER!The entire Establishment (yes, Fox included) wants to gaslight the public into thinking that the mass reporting of voter fraud is a lie. We aim to give voice to the millions of Americans who currently believe otherwise after seeing the information that has become available. Please listen to this broadcast and share it around, the vast majority of Americans only wants a fair, honest, count of the LEGALLY submitted ballots.November 5th, 2020 LIVE broadcast
On this brand spankin' new High-Dere, Ian and Joe talk about what has been going on in their lives since they were last seen in 2017...it's a lot.From music videos in Tokyo to smuggler runs on Batuu; producing television, slingin' packages for Bezos and welcoming a niece and a furry friend to the world. We've had a busy 3 years.And we've seen it be a difficult time for a lot of people, especially in Hollywood. We examine an article from the Hollywood Reporter about Depression in the industry and what major studios and companies are doing to help their biggest assets...their workforce.How do Ian and Joe handle the pressure and depressive tendencies of the wild west that is Hollywoodland? Come find out.THEN we get into the muck of the circus that is The Impeachment of President Donald J. Trump. Boy! What a show. The guys get into the charges brought against him and ultimately whether or not they agree with a super-eager Democratic Party in the House of Representatives. Lol.And did you know that the government can now legally propagandize US Citizens through media networks and companies? Look it up. Smith-Mundt Act (both 1948 and 2012)...scary stuff.Wrap out this sesh by hearing what Ian and Joe's goals for 2020 are and who we would invite on the show if given the chance.

Halbe Wahrheiten und ganze Lügen. Sie gehören zur Propaganda wie der Wille, die öffentliche Meinung in eine ganz bestimmte Richtung zu lenken – egal, ob sich diese Mission offiziell nun Public Diplomacy, Public Relations, Public Affairs oder Nation Branding nennt. Die Verschwörungstheoretiker sind jedenfalls überzeugt, dass der Staat die Propaganda nicht nur im Ausland verbreitet, sondern sie auch im Inland an die eigenen Bürgern verfüttert. Und ganz unbegründet ist diese Befürchtung nicht, seit 2011 der Smith–Mundt Act «modernisiert» worden ist. Aus dem Morgomat vom 22. November 2014.
It's that time of year again...the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) was re-uped for another year. What devious items were snuck in this year? In the last two years, indefinite military detention of United States citizens (NDAA 2012) and overturning the 63 year old Smith-Mundt Act which prohibited domestic dissemination of government propaganda (NDAA 2013) were just two of the highlights. This year, the war rhetoric is amped up to get the Department of Defense ready for the coming (or currently raging) cyber war by not only creating another government database for storing digital information, but laying out the rules for selling and exchanging that information with other governments and individuals all over the world.

In part three of our Corporate Media series we take a look at the known influence of the CIA's Operation Mockingbird on the media. The New York Times, Time/Life, CBS, NBC, Newsweek, the AP, UPI, Reuters and even all the way down the publishing hierarchy to The Louisville Courier-Journal were actively working with the CIA. And just when you thought it was safe to say that all of this CIA influence of the corporate media was in the past, we have the National Defense Authorization Act of 2013 (NDAA) which allows the use of government produced propaganda on the US public (previously made illegal-at least on paper-by the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948).

Justin and Jason talk about how Jason's mail was stolen, some of the limitations with Phone Gap, the engineering salaries of Silicon Valley startups, the ridiculous cost of housing, Jason's idea for gamifying personal finance, incentivizing kids with cash, how NASA's Advanced Propulsion Physics Lab is working on the possibility of a warp drive, the new matter created by the Large Hadron Collider, how an advanced alien race (if they exist) might not be all that interested in communicating with us, Jason's Freakonomics and Singularity Summit binge, the future of 3D printing, the meaning of life without money, Micho Kaku's vision of the world in 2030 and what he envisioned a phone would do and look like, why Jason still hasn't purchased a backup system, how Brendan Dunn is making five figures a month off a bootstrapped product, whether or not to do interviews, a new approach to recruiting AnyFu experts, how to explain functions to kids and the possibility of using a combination of both a challenge system and personal projects in Catalyst, Jason's idea of how to explain advanced mathematical algorithms without using mathematical notation, Jason's bizarre knee problem and finally how a provision in the House-passed NDAA bill would overturn the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948 prohibiting the U.S. government from using propaganda against it's own citizens.
