Who was America's great power prophet during the Cold War? Perhaps not Henry Kissinger. In Zbig, Financial Times' U.S. editor, Edward Luce, makes the case that the Polish-American strategist Zbigniew Brzezinski was at least equal to Kissinger in his prophetic grasp of America's role in the Cold War world. Luce explores Brzezinski's role as Jimmy Carter's National Security Advisor, his combination of hard and soft power strategies against the Soviet Union, and his uncannily prescient predictions about Soviet collapse and the emergence of an "alliance of the aggrieved" against the United States. five key takeaways * Brzezinski was remarkably prescient - He accurately predicted Soviet collapse decades in advance, identifying the USSR's "Achilles heel" as its suppressed internal nations and calling it a "gerontocracy" destined to fail through "reverse natural selection."* The dinner that saved Europe - Brzezinski's coordination with Pope John Paul II in 1980 helped prevent Soviet invasion of Poland by persuading Solidarity to moderate their rhetoric while warning Moscow that Poland would be "indigestible."* Post-Cold War prophet of doom - Unlike triumphalist Americans in the 1990s, Brzezinski warned that U.S. hubris would create an "alliance of the aggrieved" (China, Russia, Iran, North Korea) - a prediction that proved remarkably accurate.* Meritocracy believer with aristocratic standards - Despite his Polish noble background, Brzezinski championed American meritocracy but maintained old-world intellectual rigor, famously giving only one A per class regardless of size.* Study your adversaries - His key lesson for today: America must continue studying and understanding other nations' languages, cultures, and motivations rather than assuming everyone should simply follow the American model.Edward Luce is the US national editor and columnist at the Financial Times. Luce's biography of Zbigniew Brzezinski Zbig, The life of Zbig Brzezinski: America's great power prophet, came out this month. He is the author of three highly acclaimed books, The Retreat of Western Liberalism (2017), Time to Start Thinking: America in the Age of Descent (2012), and In Spite of the Gods: The Strange Rise of Modern India (2007).

Polish émigré Zbigniew Brzezinski – known as ‘Zbig' – rose to prominence in America during the Cold War as a key intellectual architect of US foreign policy. He was National Security Advisor to President Carter and was a trusted advisor to many US presidents from John F Kennedy onwards. Yet, despite helping to shape American foreign policy during critical moments, he is not as well-known or celebrated as his lifelong rival Henry Kissinger.   The Financial Times' chief US columnist Edward Luce joins Freddy Gray on this episode of Americano to talk about his new book Zbig: The Life of Zbigniew Brzezinski, America's Cold War Prophet. The book aims to bridge the gap in the historiography of the Cold War and looks at Zbig's legacy – from preventing a Soviet invasion of Poland, to strengthening relations with China, to shaping America's response to 9/11. Was Zbig a Cold War prophet? Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

With Eliot traveling abroad, Eric hosts Financial Times Washington commentator Edward Luce, author of Zbig: The Life of Zbigniew Brzezinski, America's Great Power Prophet (New York, Avid Reader Press, 2025). They discuss Zbig's historical significance, why there have been more biographies of Henry Kissinger than Brzezinski and whether or not he was, in the long pull of history, more consequential than Kissinger. They also consider whether Brzezinski was a better National Security Adviser than Carter was a President. They talk about the very complicated Zbig-Henry relationship and the different styles they brought not only to their interpersonal exchanges but also their concern for reputation management in Washington. They touch on Zbig's contributions to the reorientation of nuclear strategy, nuclear command and control, undermining the Soviet Union with covert action and an emphasis on nationalities, the catastrophic collapse of the Shah's regime in Iran and the subsequent hostage crisis which sank the Carter Presidency, as well as arguably Zbig's finest moment after the 1980 election when the Carter Administration fended off a possible Soviet invasion of Poland. Zbig: The Life of Zbigniew Brzezinski, America's Great Power Prophet: https://a.co/d/1BeHvGu Shield of the Republic is a Bulwark podcast co-sponsored by the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with analyst Trita Parsi of the Quincy Institute about Iran and the U.S. Their conversation spans from exploring decision-making authority and processes in Iran to the impact that U.S. sanctions have on ordinary people in Iran, where poverty has risen dramatically. They speak in depth about the regional and economic dynamics that may have primed Iran for a deal with the United States, including a growing recognition about both the potential and limits on what Russia and China can provide, and the possibility that President Trump will break with DC orthodoxy to make a deal. Trita Parsi is the executive vice president of the Quincy Institute. He is an award-winning author and the 2010 recipient of the Grawemeyer Award for Ideas Improving World Order. He is an expert on US-Iranian relations, Iranian foreign policy, and the geopolitics of the Middle East. He has authored four books on US foreign policy in the Middle East, with a particular focus on Iran and Israel. His first book, Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Iran, Israel and the United States (Yale University Press, 2007), won the silver medal winner of the 2008 Arthur Ross Book Award from the Council on Foreign Relations. His second book, A Single Roll of the Dice – Obama's Diplomacy with Iran (Yale University Press, 2012) and was selected by Foreign Affairs as the Best Book of 2012 on the Middle East. Parsi's latest book – Losing an Enemy: Obama, Iran and the Triumph of Diplomacy (Yale University Press, 2017) – reveals the behind the scenes story to the nuclear deal with Iran. Parsi was born in Iran but moved with his family at the age of four to Sweden in order to escape political repression in Iran. His father was an outspoken academic who was jailed by the Shah and then by the Ayatollah. He moved to the United States as an adult and studied foreign policy at Johns Hopkins' School for Advanced International Studies where he received his PhD under Francis Fukuyama and Zbigniew Brzezinski. Ahmed Moor is a Palestinian-American writer born in Gaza and a 2025 Fellow at FMEP. He is an advisory board member of the US Campaign for Palestinian rights, co-editor of After Zionism (Saqi Books) and is currently writing a book about Palestine. He also currently serves on the board of the Independence Media Foundation. His work has been published in The Guardian, The London Review of Books, The Nation, and elsewhere. He earned a BA at the University of Pennsylvania and an MPP at Harvard University. Original music by Jalal Yaquoub.

Farbrevolutionen sind keine wilden Fantasien, sondern ganz reale, prüfbare Ereignisse. Sie als Export westlicher Macht- und Herrschaftspolitik zu betrachten, trifft jedoch nicht ganz den Kern ihres Wesens. Erst recht nicht in einer Zeit, in der die Konzentration von Kapital sowie informeller und politischer Macht ein Maß erreicht hat, bei dem die Protagonisten globale Führungsansprüche umzusetzen suchen. Deshalb werden Farbrevolutionen vor keinem Staat halt machen — auch nicht vor den USA.Ein Standpunkt von Peter Frey.Die Welt der GlobalistenGlobale Agenden gehen auf Ereignisse zurück, die in einer Zeit stattfanden, in welcher mächtige Akteure im Tiefen Staat des westlichen Machtsystems Konzepte entwickelten, um den Krisenprozessen, die eben dieses System hervorrief und es gleichermaßen gefährdeten, zu begegnen.In jener Zeit, Anfang der 1970ger-Jahre, wurde unter der Schirmherrschaft der Rockefeller Foundation der Club of Rome ins Leben gerufen und die Trilaterale Kommission gegründet (1). Die Golddeckung des US-Dollars wurde nun auch offiziell fallen gelassen. Und die Karriere von Leuten wie George Soros und Zbigniew Brzezinski ging auf große Fahrt. Es war die Zeit, welche die Epoche des Neoliberalismus einläutete. In welcher Staatsvermögen begonnen wurde zu privatisieren, Kredite als Produkte zu handeln und alles zu finanzialisieren, was denk- und undenkbar erschien. So erhielt das System der Geldvermehrung neue Impulse, während gleichzeitig Macht und Einfluss privater Akteure auf die Geschicke von Nationalstaaten immer weiter zunahmen.Aber all das genügte nicht. Im Schatten des Neoliberalismus entwickelte sich Größeres, Wahnhafteres. Der Globalismus als Ideologie, mitsamt dessen Infiltrierung internationaler Organisationen, breitete seine Tentakeln aus. Man entwickelte Ideen, die Ankurbelung der Akkumulation von Kapital durch eine neue Art von Kriegen zu realisieren. Die Vernichtung realer Werte ist in Kriegen am Umfassendsten. Der Sinn von Kriegen (eigentlich ja Unsinn) manifestiert sich darin, dass das, was vernichtet wird, so schnell wie möglich neu produziert werden muss. Das System des Kapitalismus beruht darauf, dass die Realwirtschaft auf diese Art und Weise dazu verdammt wird, ein verzerrtes surreales System anzutreiben: dass der Finanzwirtschaft.Grundsätzlich ist alles, was in unserem System produziert wird, aus finanzieller Sicht kreditbasiert. Kredite ihrerseits sind in ihrer Gesamtheit konsequent anwachsende Schulden und andererseits anwachsendes Kapital. Dieses Kapital hat den Hang zur Konzentration in den Händen weniger und spiegelt eine menschliche Eigenschaft wieder: die der Gier, der Gier nach immer mehr. In einem System, in dem Geld als das Maß der Dinge betrachtet wird, geht die Konzentration von Kapital mit einer Machtkonzentration einher. Macht und Gier finden hier zusammen und werden angetrieben — freilich nicht nur bei „denen da oben“.Die Menschen lassen sich allzu leicht täuschen über das wahre Wesen, die tatsächlichen Ziele, welche mit Kriegen verfolgt werden. Ziele, die sie nicht zu erkennen vermögen, die sie aber trotzdem implizit akzeptieren, ja aktiv mittragen sollen. Womit sie zu Mittätern und gleichzeitig Opfern werden. Und so schnupfen sie immer wieder die vorgeschobenen Narrative auf, die freilich mit Hilfe großangelegter psychologischer Operationen in ihre Köpfe geprügelt werden. Für das Geschäftsmodell des „Immer mehr“ musste man jedoch kreativ werden. Zumal das System inzwischen neue Dimensionen von Kriegen verlangt.https://apolut.net/versuch-einer-farbrevolution-in-den-usa-von-peter-frey/ Hosted on Acast.

The distinction lies not in the science itself, but in the hands that wield it. When harnessed for the betterment of society, progress is indeed assured. However, when it falls prey to the insidious interests of the powerful, the masses are left to suffer the consequences.Before you continue, please consider giving this article a like to help other people find it. Thank you! The unholy trinity of electrical engineering, banking, and social engineering has given rise to a new era of technocratic tyranny. The fact that the same principles that govern the flow of electricity can be applied to the flow of capital and the manipulation of human behavior is a chilling testament to the boundless ingenuity of those who seek to control us. The Elite have long recognized the potential of Science to further their interests, and have spared no effort in exploiting its power to maintain their grip on society.The foundation of Technocracy is rooted in the dogmatic ideology of Scientism, a philosophy that seeks to supplant traditional values and spiritual beliefs with a narrow, reductionist worldview. By elevating Science to the status of absolute truth, Scientism attempts to monopolize the narrative, dismissing any opposing perspectives as inferior or irrelevant. This rigid adherence to a singular ideology is a hallmark of totalitarian thinking, where dissent is not tolerated and critical inquiry is discouraged.The assertion that Scientism upholds Atheism, defined as the absence of belief in any god, is a gross oversimplification that betrays a profound ignorance of the complexities of human spirituality. The notion that one's understanding of the divine must be confined to the narrow parameters of biblical dogma is a laughable attempt to stifle the diversity of human experience. What of those who reverence the natural world as the ultimate reality, or who find solace in the mystical traditions of Eastern spirituality? Are they to be dismissed as atheists simply because their conception of the divine transcends the petty squabbles of biblical literalism?The practice of labeling and categorization is a pernicious aspect of Scientism, serving only to stifle nuanced discussion and reduce complex ideas to simplistic, binary oppositions. The term “conspiracy theorist” has become a pejorative, used to discredit and marginalize those who dare to question the official narrative. This kind of intellectual McCarthyism is a hallmark of totalitarian regimes, where dissent is pathologized and critical thinking is discouraged.Those who peddle this brand of Scientism are complicit in the destruction they have wrought upon the world. By elevating their own narrow ideology to the status of absolute truth, they justify the ravaging of the environment, the exploitation of the poor, and the erosion of civil liberties. Theirs is a worldview that is fundamentally at odds with the values of empathy, compassion, and intellectual curiosity that have always defined humanity at its best.The insidious game of cat and mouse, where the Dark Masters employ their favorite tactics of compartmentalization and redefinition to obfuscate their true intentions. By carefully calibrating their language, they seek to manipulate the narrative, sowing confusion and doubt among the unsuspecting masses. It is a clever ruse, designed to conceal the sinister agenda that lurks beneath the surface.It is important for us to confront the reality that the true struggle is not between good and evil, but between competing factions vying for control of the planet. The choice, it seems, is not between light and darkness, but between the geopoliticians and the progressive technicians. Who would you prefer to hold the reins of power? The answer, much like the truth, remains shrouded in uncertainty.A Lily Bit is a reader-supported publication.

Internationalistic in viewpoint, the C.F.R., along with the Atlantic Union Movement, and the Atlantic Council of the U.S., believes national boundaries should be obliterated and one-world rule established … What the Trilaterals truly intend is the creation of a worldwide economic power superior to the political government of the nation-states involved. As managers and creators of the system they will rule the world … In my view, the Trilateral Commission represents a skillful, coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of power: political, monetary, intellectual, and ecclesiastical.” — (With No Apologies, [1979], the auto-biography by Senator Barry Goldwater, pp. 128, 284).The New International Economic OrderThe goal of “transforming government” is a euphemism for a far more sinister agenda. It becomes clear that the ambitions of those behind this new order extend far beyond the realm of politics, and that the very fabric of our society is being transformed before our eyes.The plans for a New International Economic Order are part of a much larger scheme to create a one-world government, with the technocrats firmly in control. This raises important questions about the future of our world and the role that we will play in it.The Bank for International Settlements is just one of the many threads that are woven together to create a tapestry of deceit and corruption. The true nature of this new order is slowly coming to light, and it is clear that it is not in the best interests of the general population.The New International Economic Order is a far-reaching and complex plan to transform our society. At its core, it seeks to reshape the world in the image of its creators, with a focus on control, manipulation, and exploitation.The primary targets of this transformation are:* Economics: The creation of a new economic order, with a focus on sustainable development and the Green Economy.* Government: The transformation of government, with a focus on technocratic control and the erosion of national sovereignty.* Religion: The undermining of traditional religious values and the promotion of a new, secular spirituality.* Law: The creation of a new, global legal framework, with a focus on international law and the erosion of national laws.* Energy: The control of energy resources, with a focus on sustainable energy and the reduction of individual freedom.* Humanity: The transformation of humanity, with a focus on human enhancement and the merger of man and machine.But who is behind this transformation? The answer is clear:* The Trilateral Commission: A powerful, secretive organization that seeks to promote a new world order.* The United Nations: A global organization that seeks to promote a new world order, with a focus on international law and the erosion of national sovereignty.* Non-Government Organizations (NGOs): A network of organizations that seek to promote a new world order, with a focus on sustainable development and the Green Economy.It is clear that neither the American People nor the Congress of the United States of America are party to this transformation. Instead, it is being driven by a small group of powerful, secretive organizations that seek to promote their own interests and agendas.As we examine the tools and tactics being used to promote this transformation, we see a number of key initiatives:* Agenda 21: A United Nations program that seeks to promote sustainable development and the Green Economy.* Sustainable development: A concept that seeks to balance economic growth with environmental protection and social justice.* Smart meters: A technology that seeks to control and manipulate energy usage, with a focus on reducing individual freedom.* Climate change: A concept that seeks to promote a new, global agenda, with a focus on reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainable energy.* Cap and trade: A system that seeks to control and manipulate carbon emissions, with a focus on promoting sustainable energy.* The Green Economy: A concept that seeks to promote sustainable development and the reduction of individual freedom.* Human enhancement (Trans-Humanism): A movement that seeks to merge man and machine, with a focus on promoting a new, technocratic society.The Dark Heart of TechnocracyScientism is the foundation upon which Technocracy is built. This ideology seeks to regulate every aspect of human life, from the mundane to the profound, under the guise of scientific authority.The Seven Pillars of Scientism* The Application of Scientific Methods to Social and Political Modeling: Scientism seeks to apply the scientific method to the study of human behavior and society, reducing complex social issues to simplistic, quantifiable problems.* Science as the Absolute Truth: Scientism posits that science is the only reliable source of truth, dismissing other forms of knowledge and understanding as inferior.* Atheism: Scientism upholds atheism, rejecting the existence of a higher power or divine authority.* Predictive Power: Scientism claims to be able to predict the future, using scientific models and data to forecast human behavior and societal trends.* Rejection of Opposing Inquiry: Scientism rejects any opposing viewpoints or criticisms, dismissing them as unscientific or uninformed.* Demand for Acceptance: Scientism demands acceptance by non-scientists, expecting the general public to blindly accept scientific authority without question.“Scientism is belief in the universal applicability of the scientific method and approach, and the view that empirical science constitutes the most authoritative worldview or most valuable part of human learning to the exclusion of other viewpoints."—WikipediaAs we explore the implications of Scientism, we see a disturbing trend towards the erosion of individual freedom and the centralization of power. From the regulation of shower times to the elimination of private property, Scientism seeks to control every aspect of human life under the guise of scientific authority.A Lily Bit is a reader-supported publication.

His book, "The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology", published in 2005, explores the idea of a future where humans and machines become indistinguishable.Kurzweil's work at Google is closely tied to the company's chairman, Eric Emerson Schmidt, who is a member of the Trilateral Commission. Schmidt's involvement with the Trilateral Commission is well-documented. He has been a member of the organization since 2001, and has played a key role in shaping its agenda.As a member of the Trilateral Commission, Schmidt has been involved in promoting the interests of the organization, which include the advancement of technocracy and the erosion of national sovereignty. Google's ties to the Trilateral Commission are extensive, and Schmidt's membership in the organization has given the company a significant amount of influence and access to the global elite. This has allowed Google to shape the agenda of the Trilateral Commission, which includes the promotion of technocracy and the advancement of “artificial intelligence.”Schmidt's views on government surveillance and data collection are also noteworthy. In 2013, he stated that government surveillance in the United States was the “nature of our society” and that he was not going to “pass judgment on that”. However, when it was revealed that the NSA had been secretly spying on Google's data centers worldwide, he called the practice “outrageous” and criticized the NSA's collection of Americans' phone records.Schmidt's relationship with the Obama administration is also worth noting. He was a campaign advisor and major donor to Barack Obama, and served on Google's government relations team. Obama considered him for Commerce Secretary, and Schmidt was mentioned as a possible candidate for the Chief Technology Officer position, which Obama created in his administration.The Definition of TechnocracyTechnocracy was termed in 1932 at Columbia University by M. King Hubbert and Howard Scott. After being booted from Columbia in 1934, they continued to develop their ideas through the Technocracy Study Course.Characteristics of Technocracy* Produces volumes of inviolable regulations: Technocracy is based on “science” and produces a large number of regulations that are considered absolute.* Creates totalitarian control: Technocracy seeks to create a totalitarian system of control, but it is not socialism or communism.* Seeks to replace price-based economic system with energy-based system: Technocracy aims to replace the traditional price-based economic system with an energy-based system, where energy credits are used instead of money.Communism, Marxism, Socialism, and Fascism are all based on a price-based economic system. Technocracy shifts away from that, so it is neither.Requirements for Technocracy* Register energy conversion and consumption* Create a balanced load* Provide a continuous inventory of production and consumption* Provide specific registration of goods and services* Provide specific registration of individual consumptionThe Technology to Implement TechnocracyToday, we have the technology to implement these requirements, including:* Obamacare* NSA spying on all Americans* Common Core* Data collection and miningThe Transformation of AmericaThe insidious tentacles of the Trilateral Commission have been quietly strangling the life out of our democratic institutions for decades. The brainchild of David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski, this cabal of 289 handpicked members, comprising the crème de la crème of bankers, industrialists, academics, politicians, media moguls, law firms, and NGOs, has been pulling the strings of power from behind the scenes since its inception in 1973.Their grand design, masquerading as a benevolent force for global cooperation, is nothing short of a thinly veiled attempt to consolidate economic power and impose a New International Economic Order. The Trilateral Commission's mantra of “interdependence” and “free trade” is merely a euphemism for the dismantling of tariffs and trade barriers, paving the way for the unfettered exploitation of resources and labor by the global elite. It was an economic takeover, but they needed the political machinery to pull it off. Technocracy is not a political system — it is an economic system.The Commission's influence on U.S. politics illustrates their Machiavellian tactics. In 1976, they hijacked the White House, with Brzezinski handpicking Jimmy Carter for the presidency and subsequently appointing nearly a third of the American Trilateral membership to key Cabinet and Administration posts. This brazen power grab was a masterclass in the art of manipulation, with the American people blissfully unaware of the economic coup unfolding before their very eyes.The Trilateral Commission's fingerprints are all over the subsequent decades of U.S. policy, from the Earth Summit's Agenda 21 to Clinton's “National Partnership For Reinventing Government” and the creation of the President's Council on Sustainable Development. The appointment of John Negroponte, a Trilateralist, as the first Director of the National Intelligence Agency in 2005, serves as a stark reminder of the Commission's enduring influence.But the roots of this technocratic behemoth run even deeper. Brzezinski's 1970 book, "Between Two Ages: America's Role In The Technetronic Era," is the ideological blueprint for the Trilateral movement, a clarion call for the imposition of a technocratic order on a global scale. As we delve deeper into the labyrinthine world of the Trilateral Commission, it becomes increasingly clear that their ultimate goal is nothing short of a complete overhaul of our economic and political systems, with the global elite firmly ensconced at the helm.“The technetronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values…Today we are again witnessing the emergence of transnational elites…[whose] ties cut across national boundaries… It is likely that before long the social elites of most of the more advanced countries will be highly internationalist or globalist in spirit and outlook. Within a few years the rebels in the more advanced countries who today have the most visibility will be joined by a new generation making its claim to power in government and business… accepting as routine managerial processes current innovations such as planning-programming-budgeting systems (PPBS) … A national information grid that will integrate existing electronic data banks is already being developed…. The projected world information grid, for which Japan, Western Europe, and the United States are most suited, could create the basis for a common educational program, for the adoption of common academic standards.The nation-state is gradually yielding its sovereignty. … In the economic-technological field, some international cooperation has already been achieved, but further progress will require greater American sacrifices. More intensive efforts to shape a new world monetary structure will have to be undertaken, with some consequent risk to the present relatively favorable American position.”—Brzezinski, “Between Two Ages: America's Role In The Technetronic Era”Brzezinski's 1970 magnum opus, “Between Two Ages: America's Role In The Technetronic Era” was no mere academic exercise, but a blueprint for the incremental implementation of a controlled society, where the boundaries between politics, economics, and technology are deliberately blurred.It's no coincidence that Brzezinski, a professor at Columbia University, the very institution where Technocracy was born in 1932, was handpicked by David Rockefeller to co-found the Trilateral Commission in 1973. Rockefeller, ever the astute observer of questionable talent, recognized in Brzezinski a kindred spirit, a fellow traveler in the quest for a technocratic utopia.The term “technetronic,” coined by Brzezinski, is more than just a clever neologism; it's a call for the fusion of technology and politics, a harbinger of the all-encompassing control grid that the technocratic elite have been constructing for decades. “Technetronic” and “technocracy” are virtually interchangeable, two sides of the same coin.Brzezinski's vision, as outlined in his book, is one of gradual, incremental control over a “Technetronic Era” in which the boundaries between individual freedom and collective servitude are systematically eroded. It's a prospect that should send shivers down the spine of anyone who values liberty and autonomy.And now, let us take a moment to hear from the horse's mouth, as it were. Brzezinski himself will explain, in his own words, the contours of his technocratic vision. Prepare to be enlightened, or perhaps, more accurately, prepare to be chilled to the bone.The “war on terror,” that nebulous and ever-shifting construct, has been a boon for those who seek to regulate and control the patterns of traditional American behavior. It's a Trojan horse for the imposition of a surveillance state, where the boundaries between public and private are deliberately blurred. The “internationalist” elite, with their technocratic vision of a totally surveilled societal structure, have been the primary beneficiaries of this perpetual war.But the tentacles of the Trilateral Commission reach far deeper into the inner workings of our government than most of us could have ever imagined. The fact that six out of the eight heads of the World Bank have been Trilateralists is a staggering statistic. And it's not just the World Bank; the Trilateral Commission's influence permeates every level of our government, from the President and Vice President to the U.S. Trade Representatives and National Security Advisers.The sheer scope of the Trilateral Commission's infiltration is breathtaking. Every President and Vice President since Carter has had ties to the Commission, as have a disproportionate number of U.S. Trade Representatives and National Security Advisers. It's a veritable Who's Who of Trilateralists, a rogues gallery of technocrats who have insinuated themselves into the highest echelons of power.And what's the common thread that binds these individuals together? Their allegiance to the military-industrial complex, that behemoth of war and destruction. The Trilateral Commission's ties to the machinery of war are well-documented, and it's no coincidence that their influence has coincided with the perpetual war footing that has become the hallmark of our foreign policy. The war on terror, it seems, is just a convenient pretext for the imposition of a technocratic order, one that serves the interests of the elite at the expense of the American people.A Blueprint for Technocratic TyrannyThe New International Economic Order is nothing short of a dystopian nightmare, where the Elite rule with an iron fist. This “Technetronic Era” is characterized by:* A controlled society where the primary actors and planners of economic life are global banks and multi-national corporations.* A continuous surveillance of every citizen, with files containing all information about every citizen instantly available to authorities.But that's not all. The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) has been pushing a “Green Economy Initiative” that is, in reality, a Trojan horse for Technocracy. The UNEP's own words are chilling: “These initiatives, both public and private, provide the mechanism for reconfiguration of businesses, infrastructure and institutions, and for the adoption of sustainable consumption and production processes.”In other words, the Green Economy is a euphemism for a complete overhaul of our society, our way of life, and our institutions. It's a recipe for disaster, and one that has been championed by none other than Bill Clinton, who promised to “reinvent government.” We now know what he meant by that.But the Green Economy is not just a secular phenomenon. The World Council of Churches has proudly declared that the “World's faiths will declare themselves, irrevocably, as Green Faiths.” The very fabric of many people's spiritual lives is being co-opted by the technocratic elite.And if that's not enough, let me introduce you to the concept of “Reflexive Law” as a “Legal Paradigm For Sustainable Development”. This is the final nail in the coffin of our freedoms, a legal framework that will enshrine the principles of Technocracy and ensure that the Elite remain in control.The doublespeak of the technocratic elite is on full display in this document. On the surface, it appears to be a call for new approaches to achieving sustainable development, but scratch beneath the surface and you'll find a sinister plot to undermine our existing systems of governance and replace them with a new paradigm of “reflexive law”.The language is deliberately obtuse, but the intent is clear: to create a new framework for decision-making that is “integrated” and “normative”, where social systems and subsystems are forced to interact and communicate in a way that is predetermined by the technocratic elite. The goal is to create a seamless web of control, where every aspect of society is aligned with the objectives of sustainable development, as defined by the Elite.The reference to “Type 2” non-regulatory private or public-private partnership initiatives is particularly telling. This is code for the outsourcing of governance to unelected, unaccountable entities that are beholden only to the interests of the Elite. The “shifting emphasis” away from traditional regulation and government programs is a euphemism for the dismantling of our democratic institutions and the transfer of power to the technocratic elite.And what of “reflexive law” itself? This sociological construct is presented as a solution to the “conceptual dilemmas” of sustainable development, but it's really just a fancy name for a system of control that is designed to “specify procedures” for regulated entities to follow. In other words, it's a recipe for a totalitarian regime, where every aspect of society is micromanaged by the technocratic elite.The use of words like “normative” and “integrated” is particularly insidious, as it implies a sense of moral authority and inevitability. But make no mistake, this is a power grab, plain and simple. The technocratic elite are using the rhetoric of sustainable development to justify a radical transformation of our society, one that will leave us all subject to their whims and fancies.The emergence of a new worldwide web of energy, a global energy network, is a reminds us of the technocratic agenda's far-reaching implications. This network, like the internet, will revolutionize the way we live, work, and interact with one another. But, as we've seen, it's not just about energy distribution; it's about control, manipulation, and the transformation of humanity itself.The dispersal of trillions of “stimulus dollars” globally, parades the vast resources at the disposal of the globalists. The “Black Budget” is just one of the many tools in their arsenal, designed to further their agenda of control and domination.As we navigate our dark ages of deceit and manipulation, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. But we must remain vigilant and committed to our mission of preserving freedom. I urge everyone to take action, to educate themselves and others, and to advocate for freedom at the local level. Acting locally while thinking globally is the key to preserving our liberties.Let us take a stand against the forces of tyranny and oppression. Let us support and educate our local Sheriffs, who are the last line of defense against federal overreach. Let us name and shame those who practice un-American thinking and activity. And let us serve Misprision of Treason wherever appropriate.Together, we can make a difference. Together, we can preserve freedom and protect our way of life.I wrote all of this was for free!

Step into the complex world of geopolitics as we engage in a provocative dialogue with Donald Parkinson from the Marxist Unity Group and Cosmonaut Magazine. Ever wondered how Aleksandr Dugin's perspectives on Vladimir Putin shift when viewed from Russia's internal lens? Discover the nuances of his book "Putin vs. Putin: Vladimir Putin Viewed from the Right," and how it provides clarity on Dugin's ideological leanings compared to his more globally recognized "Fourth Political Theory." We unpack the influences of far-right esoteric thinkers like Julius Evola on Dugin, his critical take on Putin and Medvedev, and the convoluted relationship he has with Nazi ideology, all while maintaining his Russian patriotism.We then scrutinize Dugin's admiration for Putin's centralizing strategies as outlined in "The 12 Labors of Putin." Find out how Putin's efforts to stave off Russia's disintegration, particularly in the Caucasus, and his suppression of ethnic separatism align with Dugin's vision. Our conversation spans from the federal structure of the Russian Federation to Putin's methods of curbing regional autonomy and disciplining oligarchs. We also delve into the intricate dance between Eurasianism and Islamism, and how Dugin selectively aligns with certain Islamist factions. This discussion paints a comprehensive picture of the ideological and geopolitical strategies at play within Russia.Finally, we tackle broader geopolitical ideologies, juxtaposing right and left strands of Eurasianism with insights from thinkers like Zbigniew Brzezinski and John Mearsheimer. We navigate the complexities of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, the contentious "land back" movement, and the evolving nature of counter-systemic politics, including the rise of MAGA communism. Reflect with us on the future of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), and the critical need for a cohesive programmatic vision. This episode offers a treasure trove of insights into Dugin's political theories and their far-reaching implications on global geopolitics. Don't miss this thought-provoking conversation!

Former US national security advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski's warning in 2002 that Israel was losing its global standing as Israeli-Palestinian violence escalated during the second Intifada or uprising against Israeli occupation seemed overstated at the time. However, looking back, Mr. Brzezinski's warning rings prophetic.

While this is an interesting thought, they're both the same entity. Shadow governments rule the land and the CIA and China are working TOGETHER to bring upon a technocratic order. An order to enslave all of humanity to "convenience" in a Great Reset. Klaus Schwab has said himself that China is the role model for the Great Reset. This is not shocking when you consider China's "Zero Covid Policies" vs the "15 Minute Cities" being built throughout the UK, Europe and North America. Then there is social credit which was pushed forward in China ten years ago and is now alongside carbon credits and digital IDs being pushed in places like Canada and through financial institutions across the board. China was propped up by the United States in the first place. From Kissinger meeting with Mao to save China from starvation in the 1970s and creating a trade monopoly in their favor to the Trilateral Commission's attempt to prop up China as a guinea pig state for global technocracy in the late 1970s thanks to the Rockefeller family and Zbigniew Brzezinski. The agenda cannot be more clear. The dollar will fall, Saudi Arabia has joined BRICS. The economic shift takes place simultaneously with the scripted World War 3 false flags. The food supply, grid and economy collapse, only to be replaced by a NEW food supply, grid and economy based on CBDCs with social and carbon credits forcing people into rations in 15 Minute Cities. So no, the CIA and China are not in an "infinite race." They're working together to enslave humanity to the "New World Order" that they've worked decades creating. Either prepare for it or don't.

He also served as editor of the No. 1 Shimbun, the official publication of the Foreign Correspondents Club of Japan. After winning the battle to free World Chess Champion Bobby Fischer from a Japanese jail in 2005 and defeating the effort of the George W. Bush Administration to extradite Fischer to the United States, Bosnitch agreed to serve as management consultant to the Serbian Unity Congress in Washington D.C. and also acted as a spokesman of Americans and Canadians of Serbian descent against the unlawful NATO amputation of the Serbian heartland of Kosovo from Serbia. While studying economics and political science in university, Bosnitch was the longest serving elected student union president in North American university history, and placed 7th in the world debating and oratorical championships. In 1981, while studying surveying engineering, he won the top international prize for cartography. *Podcast intro music is from the song "The Queens Jig" by "Musicke & Mirth" from their album "Music for Two Lyra Viols": http://musicke-mirth.de/en/recordings.html (available on iTunes or Amazon)

Okay, yes, I promised to take a hiatus after episode 500. Yet here it is a week later, and I'm releasing episode 501. Here's my excuse. I read and liked Dmitri Alperovitch's book, "World on the Brink: How America Can Beat China in the Race for the 21st Century."  I told him I wanted to do an interview about it. Then the interview got pushed into late April because that's when the book is actually coming out. So sue me. I'm back on hiatus. The conversation  in the episode begins with Dmitri's background in cybersecurity and geopolitics, beginning with his emigration from the Soviet Union as a child through the founding of Crowdstrike and becoming a founder of Silverado Policy Accelerator and an advisor to the Defense Department. Dmitri shares his journey, including his early start in cryptography and his role in investigating the 2010 Chinese hack of Google and other companies, which he named Operation Aurora. Dmitri opens his book with a chillingly realistic scenario of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan. He explains that this is not merely a hypothetical exercise, but a well-researched depiction based on his extensive discussions with Taiwanese leadership, military experts, and his own analysis of the terrain. Then, we dive into the main themes of his book -- which is how to prevent his scenario from coming true. Dmitri stresses the similarities and differences between the US-Soviet Cold War and what he sees as Cold War II between the U.S. and China. He argues that, like Cold War I, Cold War II will require a comprehensive strategy, leveraging military, economic, diplomatic, and technological deterrence. Dmitri also highlights the structural economic problems facing China, such as the middle-income trap and a looming population collapse. Despite these challenges, he stresses that the U.S. will face tough decisions as it seeks to deter conflict with China while maintaining its other global obligations. We talk about diversifying critical supply chains away from China and slowing China's technological progress in areas like semiconductors. This will require continuing collaboration with allies like Japan and the Netherlands to restrict China's access to advanced chip-making equipment. Finally, I note the remarkable role played in Cold War I by Henry Kissinger and Zbigniew Brzezinski, two influential national security advisers who were also first-generation immigrants.  I ask whether it's too late to nominate Dmitri to play the same role in Cold War II. You heard it here first!

Sutton's Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development, 1917­1930 (Stanford, Calif., 1968), which argues that "Soviet economic development for 1917­1930 was essentially dependent on Western technological aid" (p. 283), and that "at least 95 per cent of the industrial structure received this assistance" (p. 348). - Zbigniew Brzezinski, Between Two Ages, p. 56 BitChute

The Grand Chessboard By Zbigniew Brezenzinski: Chapter 7: Part 1 - John Lothe https://johnlothe.wordpress.com/ www.youtube.com/user/JohnLothe The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives (1997) is one of the major works of Zbigniew Brzezinski. Brzezinski graduated with a PhD from Harvard University in 1953 and became Professor of American Foreign Policy at Johns Hopkins University. He was later the United States National Security Advisor from 1977 to 1981, under the administration of President Jimmy Carter. Regarding the landmass of Eurasia as the center of global power, Brzezinski sets out to formulate a Eurasian geostrategy for the United States. In particular, he writes that no Eurasian challenger should emerge that can dominate Eurasia and thus also challenge U.S. global pre-eminence. Much of Brzezinski's analysis is concerned with geostrategy in Central Asia, focusing on the exercise of power on the Eurasian landmass in a post-Soviet environment. In his chapter dedicated to what he refers to as the "Eurasian Balkans", he uses Halford J. Mackinder's Heartland Theory. The book was critically reviewed by The New York Times,[1] Kirkus Reviews,[2] Foreign Affairs,[3] and other publications. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Grand_Chessboard Audio taken from: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLu5tKfQq0iybAoqpQcrA2QDUGAGnigaCM Read Here: https://www.cia.gov/library/abbottabad-compound/BD/BD4CE651B07CCB8CB069F9999F0EADEE_Zbigniew_Brzezinski_-_The_Grand_ChessBoard.pdf

In this episode, I'm chatting with author David Pepper about his new novel A Simple Choice, independent bookshops, his non-fiction book Laboratories Of Autocracy: A Wake-Up Call From Behind The Lines, and the importance of strengthening democracy at the state level.David Pepper is a lawyer, writer, political activist, former elected official, and adjunct professor, and served as the Chairman of the Ohio Democratic Party between 2015 and 2021.In that role, he was engaged in numerous fights and extensive litigation over voter suppression and election laws in the Buckeye State. Stemming from that work, David appeared in "All In"—the documentary highlighting Stacey Abrams' nation-wide fight for voting rights.Pepper has written four novels that bridge real-world politics and fiction—including A Simple Choice (released in August 2022)). His first novel, The People's House, earned praise for having "predicted the Russia scandal." The Wall Street Journal named Pepper "one of the best political-thriller writers on the scene." Born and raised in Cincinnati, David is a fifth-generation Cincinnatian. David earned his B.A. magna cum laude from Yale University, where he was Phi Beta Kappa, and later earned his J.D. from Yale Law School.David finished first out of 26 candidates in his first run for political office, and served on Cincinnati City Council from 2001-2005. In 2006, he flipped Hamilton County blue for the first time in 40 years when he ousted the incumbent commissioner; he then served on the Commission from 2007-2010, including as its president in 2009-2010. David was the Democratic candidate for Ohio Auditor in 2010 and Ohio Attorney General in 2014. He was elected chair of the Ohio Democratic Party in December 2014.In 1999, David clerked for the Honorable Nathaniel Jones of the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. After 2000, David also worked in the Cincinnati offices of major law firms Squire Sanders and Blank Rome, focusing his practice on commercial and business litigation, and appellate litigation. David also teaches election and voting rights law as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Cincinnati College of Law.Between his undergraduate and law school years, David spent three years doing international work in St. Petersburg, Russia. Based out of the Center for Strategic and International Studies—a Washington D.C. think tank—he served as a research intern for Zbigniew Brzezinski for part of 1993, followed by several years as the assistant director of a project providing technical assistance to the City of St. Petersburg as it underwent economic reform. In that role, David interacted with international figures such as Henry Kissinger, Paul Bremer, ambassadors, members of Congress, business leaders, and Vladimir Putin, who was then Vice Mayor of St. Petersburg. David Pepper A Simple Choice, David Pepper Laboratories of Autocracy: A Wake-Up Call from Behind the Lines, David Pepper The Voter File, David Pepper The Wingman, David PepperThe People's House, David PepperLies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong, James W.
