What an EXTRA-Ordinary compilation!!! I will definitely read , listen and share as many links as possible would take a life time to see AND Absorb it all. My CONCERN(s) is that the most RECEVT “Vax “ might well be affecting prefrontal / frontal lobe function along with the hippocampus- thus Questioning, Critical thinking and memory for new information will all be severely impaired or obliterated-Therefore :-this new information “ cant land” . Also there are clear and adaptive emotionsl reasons for not wanting to know the consequences of what you were both brainwashed and mandated into taking .

These may be the psycho nuero logical reasons people look at us BLANKLY and ie with Hostility -when we even gently try to APPROACH talking about this subject. ( so so so sad fir nature and the human race )

"Chorus of diatribes." Good phrase!

I might have expanded it to a "coordinated chorus of diatribes." Not sure which is better.

I also like that line about RFK Jr. embodying our grief over what American has become, and our hopes for its redemption.

I agree with everything in this article, very well-written summary of RFK Jr. and his uncle and dad as well. I'm old enough to remember JFK's presidency and that he wanted to end Vietnam war, not escalate it. He loved America and was trying to rescue America from deep state clutches. Now, RFK Jr. is finishing the work, along with Donald Trump who I've watched for 45 yrs - he has always been warning us about events in America that were deep state. The night of 9/11 he told us towers weren't taken down by airplanes but by explosives and indeed there were signs of thermite later found.

RFK, Jr. has done exemplary work on the jabs and the environment. He's also been giving out all kinds of truths about deep state this past year and is always worth listening to. I've learned a lot about him. He also showed us how dupicitous Dem party has become, which is why he is now an independent. Glad he & Trump have joined together, they will make a great team IMHO.

Excellent! Thank you for so clearly stating what RFKJr's journey has been and why it is so important to follow and support what he has accomplished. And especially what happens going forward. Mr. Trump has his faults, but here's hoping his stated respect for Kennedy holds steady. His legacy can only be enhanced by standing up for more health and fewer wars.

Wow! That sums it up nicely. My only worry is that Trump has never backed down from his support for the covid vaccine, operation warp speed, Moderna, DARPA, and all that. Can RFK Jr really convince him otherwise?

Expand full comment

I've watched Trump for 45 yrs, he's a white hat and operates on 5D levels - it's often difficult to understand what he's doing until it's done. At this point, we've been at war with deep state for 8 yrs and in war you NEVER give your hand away. There is a reason why Trump has not come out against the jab. He did create a healthy "jab" which has healthy agents in it such as ivermectin, HCQ and nutrients which will heal and keep us healthy. That's the one he's backing not the deep state jabs with nano particles. It's important to understand this distinction.

Moderna is NOT a healthy jab. There is no such thing. It's just as bad or worse than the Pfizer jab.

There are many here in Australia who, like me love and admire RFK Jr. I have listened to him a lot and he is a rare and true statesman of our time. The joining with Donald Trump is such a good development and gives real hope that the course of the world will change towards honest and fair government. I don't like putting faith in leaders but somehow RFK Jr is so brilliantly worthy of our trust. I can't wait to see the renaissance of USA and again become a beckon of hope and light in the world.

This is very well written Bill and thank you.

I believe it is important at this moment for people to at least acknowledge Trump and RFK Jr are both willing to put their lives on the line to save us from ourselves. These two men are heroes.

Excellent essay explaining what I deeply hope is the rumbling of a shifting tide following decades of progressive collapse of Democracy which the USA introduced to our planet. The extent of DNC lawfare inflicted on RFK Jr. has been undeniable, even to apolitical citizens. (Merely one example: Mr. Kennedy's time (1 week) and money ($10,000,000) to defend his right to be on the ballot of his domicile, the only state in which he has ever voted, the state of his law license, auto registration, etc.) Up until he was denied ballot access last month in Albany, NY his campaign had prevailed in challenging DNC interference in all other lawfare suits. Following several days of "discernment", Mr. Kennedy announced in a heartfelt August 23 address his decision to "suspend" his campaign in order to remove his name from the ballots of ten swing states in honoring his campaign promise not to be a spoiler in any state, and to accept Mr. Trump's invitation to advise him on shared priority issues -- the crises of epidemic childhood illness, forever wars, our open Border, corporate capture. Mr. Kennedy is uniquely qualified to address these issues. I am thrilled that he will change history either as our 47th President or in the Cabinet of a Unity party. My involvement as one of his volunteers over the past year has been a highlight of my life. I shall find a way to continue financially supporting him even when, someday, his Donation link disappears. I believe that Mr. Kennedy's brilliance, dedication, authenticity, depth, and love for our country and its citizens has engaged not only his 100,000 volunteers but also millions of people who are weary from their own and their children's health issues, from inability to trust their government any longer, and from fighting each other. I yearn to experience the extinction of DNC lawfare and the resurrection of Democracy in the USA.

Thank you for this excellent and important essay. The effort to cancel and denigrate RFK, Jr. exposes lessons that apply to far more than one man. A couple of months ago, I wrote a piece where I simply observed that Mr. Kennedy has produced important and brave work in numerous fields of endeavor (health, science, the environment, defending civil liberties and fighting censorship, pointing out the capture of the giant oligarch companies, etc). He's been a best-selling author of supremely important books, a litigator, started an important non-profit and even a journalism organization that covers taboo topics.

His campaign to "make America healthy again" is inspired and this message seems to be resonating with many more people. RFK, Jr's alliance with President Trump has to scare the daylights out of the world's real rulers - which means everyone who genuinely cares about our nation's future should support this formidable team.

What’s your best way to wake-up those who don’t want to open their eyes?

Please share your most effective wake-up strategies.

The more the awakened, the sooner this nightmare will be over!

The most effective strategy is asking about the person’s opinion on some of these topics:

Would you be interested in the story of how a father got 20 million dollars from the Government?

Or, show the video of the baby seizures:

https://scientificprogress.substack.com/p/autism-day-shall-we-celebrate-the

That usually works, especially with young couples having children.

If the person doesn’t want to discuss injections, then food is a good start:

Why is food poisoning legal?

How Rumsfeld forced the approval of Aspartame.

Artificial sweeteners, MSG, PFAS, Glyphosate ... go organic!

https://scientificprogress.substack.com/p/why-is-food-poisoning-legal

Then I’d follow with "Are you opened to see if the actual data matches your opinion?"

Then I start showing some of the shortcomings of the Pharma industry:

https://scientificprogress.substack.com/p/system-failure-ai-exposes-zero-government

Then, show that every single person on the planet should be suing Pfizer and Moderna for deliberately hiding human DNA in their vaccines, and Pfizer, for injecting an undisclosed carcinogenic monkey virus (SV40) sequence into the cell nucleus of the clueless biohacked, as officially recognized by Health Canada !!!

If your unhaxxed children marry haxxed ones, they will probably not have children ... just as planned: the only choice deliberately left for them will be infertile DNA-designed transhumanized babies, for an ever dependency on immoral IVF (for every IVF-born, 25 are lost or murdered), with a prohibitive cost (planned increasing prices of carbon credit).

- Apart from sin-empowered demons, what is their main source of power? NOT a coincidence that the USA left dollar convertibility to gold in 1971, precisely triggering the exponential government deficit coupled with the trade deficit and inflation.

This is the Achilles’ heel of all nations: the SSS (Satanic Secret Societies such as masonry) counterfeit paper money and launder trillions with which they buy Banks, seats in the Federal Reserve (the only private-run Central Bank in the world), political careers and parties, puppeticians, judges, listed corporations, media, healthcare corporations and organizations, universities, foundations, etc.

Taking down central banking doesn't solve the problem. Their source of money is counterfeiting, fractional reserve banking and financial unbacked instruments (e.g. derivatives, debt over debt, compound interest above real growth, etc.).

They can act as long as the majority keeps daydreaming. Their worst nightmare is that people wake up, find out all the crimes, and seek justice/revenge. They are only 8000: 1 against a million. They are very scared and know they are walking a tight rope until CBDC full digi-tatorship.

We've got a very small window of opportunity to fight or ... die (they want to murder 95% of us).

Thank you. We need optimism. Even I am guilty of sometimes thinking, "These people and organizations can't be stopped" - but they actually CAN be exposed, stopped, purged and/or brought to justice. It actually wouldn't be that hard and could happen a lot faster than most people probably think.

The exposure of the "Biden has dementia" story - and massive years-long cover-up of this - might have opened a lot of eyes to some hard truths.

There's a way out, but ain't pretty =)

We won’t be able to find real solutions unless we identify “the powers that SHOULDN’T be” and their goals:

https://scientificprogress.substack.com/p/the-plan-revealed

Is there any proof that they really want to murder all of us?

https://scientificprogress.substack.com/p/criminal-intent

How to get out of this political genocidal mess?

SIMPLE SOLUTION in 3 steps:

1. Pray MAGA: Make America God’s again. Pray “Thy Kingdom come”. Make the world His Kingdom of love. “God is love”.

John Dickinson, Chairman of the Committee for the Declaration of Independence (1776): “Our liberties do not come from charters; for these are only the declaration of pre-existing rights. They do not depend on parchments or seals; but come from the King of Kings and the Lord of all the earth”

The US national motto is “in God we trust”1, the Oath of Allegiance sums up in “so help me God”2, and the Pledge of Allegiance is “I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

“Under God”, not only means under God’s protection/providence, but also under God's will/authority and Commandments.

America fist should mean God first as in the first Commandment!

Separation of church and State doesn’t mean banning God from civil life, but "freedom of conscience", i.e. that a Government should not impose any particular religion. It doesn't mean that public officials can't show and live their faith in public, and it means that the State must always put all actions "under God", definitely not “under Satan” or over God ’s Will. Lincoln: “the nation shall, under God, have a new birth of freedom.” 3

Freemasonry is one of the “churches” of Satan: in their documents worship Lucifer as their “Great Architect”. “Separation of church and State” requires eliminating the demono-cracy over Government.

Theocracy comes from “theo”, God, “cratos”, power, but this has nothing to do with God, but Satan and his demons, so it’s a demono-cracy by the SSS (Satanic Secret Societies).

Get the murderers out of government: force masons to self-identify by law under severe penalty (their oath doesn't forbid self-identification, also, evil oaths are void).

1st Amendment: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of (the masonic) religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof (of other religions, like they did with lockdowns); or abridging the freedom of speech (like the massive masonic censorship of the conspiracy evidence, especially since 2020), or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble (lockdowns), and to petition the government for a redress of grievances” (like the wrongful COVID response and compensation to the victims, especially those fired for refusing getting poison in their veins and those disabled by them).

----------------

2. MAGA (Make Assets Great Again): money should be 100% backed with gold and real assets. This makes masonic counterfeiting harder. They are buying everything with trillions of fake money: listed corporations, media, medical system, political parties, prosti-ticians, universities… !

Satanic secret societies like the masons are increasing the financial supply through:

- Forging dollars using the Federal Reserve they fully control

- Money creation through bank loans without reserves

- Financial “wealth” creation out of thin air through financial instruments such as derivatives

- Government debt

It's what I call finflation: inflation of financial instruments

The way out of this financial nightmare:

1. Create an easy system for “real money”: private currencies/warrants/tokens based on real assets, goods, services, etc. (gold, corn, flour, oil, distance/volume/weight transportation, labor human hour/minute, etc.)

2. Ban:

a) Legal tender (free markets decide which “real money” they prefer to trade with)

b) Paper-backed debt, including:

- Currencies (even foreign)

- Government debt: allowing a government to get indebted is like giving credit to a drug-addict.

- Fractional reserve loaning: all financial loans should be 100% backed by deposits (so banks don't create money based on air), and therefore, there's no need for a Central Bank, because there would be no risk of bank-runs since all their loans are fully backed. Kill Central Banks.

3. Make usury illegal again! It’s a sin in the Bible!

Force all social networks and media to kill algorithmic moderation (shadow banning, etc.) and reinstate all closed accounts. Only messages selling things can be blocked IF it comes from outside one's network. Let people decide who's in their social network and that's it.

Replace the internet with a new peer to peer protocol, not government controlled, not centralized.

Get out of the UN organizations (including WHO), get out of the IMF, WorldBank, OAS, IADB, etc. All have been weaponized. Create alternative cooperative organizations, never legally binding.

Government spends 2x per student in public schools with respect to private ones and 3x at university level, with worse outcomes in all levels of education.

Time for a 100% voucher system, where parents can choose schools or earn the voucher money themselves if they homeschool (and their kids pass the exams), or through grand/parent/teacher coops.

How to save the life from the COVID vaxxed in 10 easy fast steps?

Appeal to authority (that’s the only thing they listen to):

1. Show that, while it is still given in the USA, all countries in Northern Europe banned Moderna due to the severe after-effects (let’s not call them side effects, but deliberate effects).

2. Show them Florida’s declaration not recommending COVID vaccines to most of the population.

3. Show Texas and 4 other states suing Pfizer for lying about vaccine efficacy (couldn’t sue the rest because of special DoD protection).

4. Show Health Canada’ statement about finding DNA plasmids in mRNA shots, proving they hacked the cell nucleus. Show the Swedish study proving that the cell nucleus is hacked by mRNA vaccines. Show that 30% of the proteins produced by the hacked cells have nothing to do with COVID.

5. Show that Health Canada also says that Pfizer inserted a sequence of the SV40 monkey virus. Show the studies proving that SV40 is carcinogenic.

6. Show that the Republican Party declared COVID “vaccines” a “biological and technical biopeapon” and instructed the authorities to seize vials and run a forensic analysis.

Appeal to science:

7. Show the studies proving that the injected are still producing spike protein and other unknown ones.

8. Show the studies proving that the spike protein was engineered to kill in Wuhan by adding HIV sequence and a Moderna cancer-related patent.

9. Convince them to labtest the amount of spike protein in their blood, which is still produced by their hacked cells. If they can’t afford it:

10. Convince them to lower the spike protein in blood by trying any of the spike detox protocols based mostly on cheap medicines. They have nothing to lose, by trying it for a week, if their health improves, then they know that the bio-weapon caused their health problems:

Thanks for this essay, D. Marks. I'm with you, as I wrote in this: https://marypoindextermclaughlin.substack.com/p/why-rfk-jr-makes-me-cry

An excerpt that dovetails with your comment:

"Celia Farber says: "Cynical Smart Set wants you to worship them because they see how dark everybody who seems like a good guy really is. And they peddle the Trust Nobody grift, their collections of dots.”

I’m just not interested in joining the Cynical Smart Set. (Not that they’d have me.) I don’t function well from a place of complete cynicism, and I don’t think society as a whole does, either. Cynicism has its place — it’s a good idea to question motives and narratives, especially of those in power — but if it’s not tempered with hope, life is bleak and pretty much not worth living, IMHO.

By the way, when I use the term hope, I’m using it in the way Vaclav Havel defined it: “an orientation of the spirit.” I think of it as an attitude of pure possibility, a state of positive curiosity, an opening to ALL potentialities. For more about the essential nature of hope defeating tyranny, read my earlier essay, Redefining Hope and Acceptance.

That’s the kind of hope that Bobby’s father and uncle were able to inspire in the hearts of Americans from all walks of life."

People can call me brainless and naive, that's fine. Everything we ALL believe is supposition. We're all guessing at what's going on, even though we may present it as fact.

And one last thing... it may be that our entire government system is as inherently corrupt and unsalvageable as some say it is. If it needs to crumble, it will. Having hope, as Havel defined it, won't prevent that from happening; it just maintains the field of ALL possibilities, including, perhaps, that the goodness of a few can prevail.

I think your article / essay "The Deep Secret of the Deep State" is informative & thoughtfully written so allow then to reply in a rather spontaneous un-rehearsed response here this morning ? I volunteered in the Kennedy24 campaign to collect signatures to get his name on the ballot here in New Mexico, it was difficult work & it took weeks of dedicated service for dozens of people to pull it off but we actually did succeed with over 11,500 signatures collected, over three times the required number for New Mexico !

I also contributed $1,000 in total to the campaign either in cash or purchase of campaign materials for myself & family & friends & through expenses incurred in work as a volunteer. I have a difficult time on this issue which I'm now confronted with & I'm quite certain that I'm not the only RFKJr. supporter who is feeling the same way, with each his or her own personal reasons ... for me it is the topic your article / essay does address in part & that IS "the environment" ... I cannot follow RFK Jr. into Trumpland when we saw what Trump did after becoming president the first time with regards to regulations which it had literally taken decades to enact into Federal laws ... things which team Trump then GUTTED overnight.

Now I'm supposed to believe & "trust" that Donald Trump will allow Bobby Kennedy Jr. to lead a cause which is so closely related to clean up America's health ? This requires a leap of imagination beyond all credulity for me & I should mention that I'm an artist professionally, someone who uses IMAGINATION every single day as a functional tool in my skillset - ha ha right ? What I'm telling my fellow Kennedy24 volunteers & contributors IS as of the beginning of September 24' that I'm going to reserve judgement at least until I actually hear something of substance from the now "endorsed" Trump campaign, I won't allow myself to support them on faith alone, that RFK Jr. can talk sense into the likes of Donald Trump !

For example, on the topic of renewable energy, my believe IS that we have enough need for all kinds of energy in this country & the world right now that we don't need to be "eliminating" solar & wind as the Trump platform (especially now w JD Vance) has openly advocated, for one things IT'S A BUSINESS & damn good one which yes of course it has it's own set of environmental issues, however it cannot get built without using the same conventional methods of construction & transport which support existing industry like you guessed it "Big Oil" so then why advocate for the elimination of new energy when the jobs alone which it can create are worth having - in a society that is terminating more jobs every day ?

What I want to actually HEAR from BOTH RFKJr. & Trump sooner rather than later is to have issues as just mentioned fully addressed ... & THAT is my own "Report From Planet Earth" today so thank you ?

Lindsay, solar panels cook birds and take up valuable farmland; wind turbines on land kill birds (what do you have against birds?) on the water they mess with whales . Electric car & other batteries use lithium which is environmentally destructive to mine and dangerous to the miners, and they cause hellacious fires when they break.

It has recently been discovered that petroleum products are produced by poorly understood geologic processes and don’t just (or even primarily) come from fossils. Meaning that we are unlikely to run out of them, they are self renewing and are available round the clock and all year round whether the wind is blowing or not. ‘Big boogeyman Big Oil profits less than the government does from taxes every time petroleum products are sold, so stuff your Marxism lite where the sun doesn’t shine.

The production of the infrastructure and equipment and the replacement costs and externalities (how to safely recycle lithium batteries) etc and the fact that they can’t exist without subsidies and back up make them a deal breaker as far as I am concerned. Nuclear is a better bet. We know the dangers, we have decades of experience dealing with accidents & containing them. Few deaths attributable to it , unlike lithium mining.

Solar & wind is a business that only exists & competes because of government subsidies, meaning taxes from you and me & politicians grifting around the laws that design those subsidies.

I would like to know how much environmental degradation is expected to happen from Trump’s deregulation, and if there might be more effective & efficient ways to accomplish the same ends. Or if technological innovation has made the regulations superfluous (you are never going to get a bureaucrat to volunteer that the regulations that she enforces are no longer needed.

Prehistoric data from ice cores proves that temperature rise precedes carbon release in the atmosphere, not the other way around.

2. There's proof of deliberate geoengineering to increase global temperatures and droughts and decrease albedo by dissolving clouds with satellite Electro-Magnetic Frequencies.

3. Life involves a carbon cycle. A war on carbon is a war on life, causing food scarcity, increase in food prices and famines. Decarbonization is part of the plan to exterminate 95% of us.

I think that you are wrong about the assertion that no one denies that there is man made climate change.

I do. I am unconvinced. I know the corruption in & of the medical literature, and I also know that similar temptations & examples (Michael Mann ring a bell?) exist in global warming, I mean climate change literature & the MSM is covering for both.

Roger that Roger MD ... allow me to reply sir ? Ok ... your comments & observations strike me as reading a list of well known pre-recorded cliches ... had mankind never ventured off into using petrochemicals we would not have the civilization we have so I "get that" Roger however at the same time it is / was that very same spirit of adventure which renewables offer us now ... you are getting personal calling me a Marxist, it may surprise you to learn that first of all I was born & raised in West Texas & I live in New Mexico both states which derive high revenue from Big Oil & not that I said nothing disparaging about it as industry in fact I even noted the FACT alternative forms of energy cannot be built out without it so

stuff your own obvious presumptions about me where your own mind apparently is bro ?

Your inane insights remind me of the time I flew over the Deep Horizon oil spill way back around the spring & all through the summer of 2010 ... quite a huge descale as far as the eye could see for thousands of square miles, so tell me again what you have against the critters in the Gulf of Mexico ? ALL forms of energy just as I wrote have their problems it cannot ever be otherwise, mankind creates problems every time he / she solves one etc.

DID I NOT SAY ... that I'm going to reserve judgement until I heart something substantive thus tell me what that means other than exactly what it says & btw, I've done well with my investments in Lithium miners so IF you're the least bit curious about that - contact me at lindsayholt "at" mac.com & maybe we can have a more productive conversation big guy.

We considered solar panels for our house, but we are too far north for them to be cost effective when we looked at it several years ago.

Is the oil from the Deep Horizon still there? Or has it dissipated. The poor creatures in the Gulf of Mexico, but it was not an ongoing cost of doing business like the damage of solar panels and wind turbans.

I might take you up on the question of lithium investment.

Lindsay, I apologize for my presumption and errors.

Petroleum is most likely produced daily deep in the earth by adiabatic processes. As it has been for the past several million years. Fossils have nothing to do with petroleum.

Thanks, I have learned a new word, adiabatic. I have looked it up and read a little but it is still a black box to me. The bottom line to me is that it has been going on for a while and will keep on going on, and I guess we have no way of knowing whether we are using petrochemicals up at a faster rate than they are being formed, but it doesn’t seem likely.

Your concerns are understandable. However, RFK Jr is a very smart man. His environmental work as well as his work exposing vaccines and Big Pharma is outstanding. It is my understanding that he has known Trump for many years and probably understands Trump reasonably well. I want to believe that RFK Jr will not be easily fooled or pushed aside. And I think Trump recognizes the value that RFK Jr brings. Although I was skeptical for different reasons, I think this unusual combination will help America.

Lindsay, Thanks for your thoughtful and heartfelt comment. Robert's endorsement of Trump is in accord with his desire to "heal the divide." Whatever Trump has done or said, his willingness to even consider the Kennedy platform is refreshing compared to the resentful dismissal by the Democrats. I believe that directly stems from the degradation described in this article. Although Trump has "changed course" in the past (he also was once a Democrat!) and may be part of the "UniParty," we can expect that Robert will do everything he can to hold him to the highest ethical values. That Trump supporters are listening and moved by RFK Jr. is certainly foundation for hope.
