VOLUNTEERS are needed by Friends of North County Recreation (NCRD) to help with making bouquets which Friends sells to support programs and projects at NCRD. The dates are listed below Friends supports scholarships for Youth, Aquatics, and Fitness Centers. This is one of Friends’ bigger fundraisers and the money is well spent to make our communities shine. The dahlias and other flowers are coming on and we need to find homes for them. The project starts daily at 9 AM in Manzanita. Friends will have water and vases, and flowers, but if you have flowers to contribute, please bring them with you. You’ll want to bring clippers if you have them-we always have extra sets, and many people want to wear gloves. Come on over and help! You do not need any florist skills; the flowers will arrange themselves. Call me, Patty, 503-801-3534 (message phone) and let me know if you can help anytime in July or August. I’ve listed the days we need filled in July. August is completely open so have at it!

Available dates in July would be:
Mondays, 15th, 22nd, and 29th.

The United States has joined 12 other nations in signing a World Economic Forum (WEF) agreement that seeks to engineer global famine by destroying the agriculture industry.
AND THE USA IS ONE OF THEM!
www.globalresearch.ca/13-nations-sign-agreement-engineer-global-famine/5860390
read the article here:

According to the agreement, which was drawn up by the WEF and the United Nations (UN), food production is causing “global warming” and must be eliminated.
To “save the planet” from “climate change,” globalists insist, farms must be shut down across the world.

In other words – to save the planet we have to die of starvation- which is happening in many parts of the world now. The hype of bird flu is just one of the weapons used to accomplish this.
So why would people want to save the planet if most of us will die of starvation? Just who are we saving the planet for?
Cut the water – get rid of the farmer – watch for this in your Oregon legislature – already being tried in Idaho and elsewhere.

Given the posts about Club Manzanita, I was curious about the guidelines for joining. This is what I discovered:
• You have to care about Manzanita and our area.
• You must be willing to be thoughtful about the issues affecting the city.
• When a decision is made, be willing to move forward.
• You have to consider the city ours, not mine, and not yours.
• You have to be willing to focus on the future and not the past.
• Change will happen and when you don’t like it, that’s fine, but talk respectfully to others.
• Feel free to run for office, and if you don’t win, be gracious, not resentful.
• Respect the many hundreds of volunteers at the city and area’s organizations. In fact, celebrate them for their problem-solving skills, patience, grace in communication, and diligence. Wow, they do a lot of work.
• Enjoy the fantastic place we live in and work to make it a better, kinder, more inclusive place.

Where’s Club Manzanita and Who’s a Member?

Posting on behalf of Kim Rosenberg loretta.kim.rosenberg@gmail.com

Since we moved here I’ve heard different stories about this “Club Manzanita”.

I worry more about the exclusionary language and the hateful rhetoric this creates than I worry about our water bill or city hall.

Some people call for civility but only extend that civility to the people who agree with them, not to the people who work here or volunteer for Council or are city staff or play golf or once worked at Nike or own a vacation home or live here full time and have a different opinion. There are so many ways to be excluded.

Civility doesn’t mean being quiet about the things we don’t agree on. Civility means remembering that the people with whom you disagree are…people and deserve the same respect we all want. Exclusionary rhetoric that splits communities into US and THEM doesn’t belong here. It doesn’t belong anywhere and it’s a tool used by angry people who didn’t get what they wanted but can’t let it go. That’s where we are in Manzanita and where we are in the United States.

When a public figure—a politician, a community leader—uses the rhetoric of US and THEM to divide a community they aren’t acting in the interest of the community. They’re acting to divide. They’re acting to sow fear, hate and division and it’s a tool used by people with grudges who are angry about the past. And when someone in a position of power or public trust abuses that trust and breaks the rules, I believe that the public has a right and an obligation to know the facts.

We don’t live in the past. The past is over. The address of life is the present moment, and we create our future in the now. Every time we gossip about things we don’t know are true, we create our future. Every time we lie, we create our future.

You can be civil and stand up for what you believe in—think the late greats John Lewis and Ruth Bader Ginzburg.

If Manzanita is a club, who are the members?

If you pick up trash on the beach and around town, are you a member?

If you deliver Meals on Wheels in the community, are you a member?

Are you a member if you make sandwiches for kids in the community during the summer break?

Are you a member if you sit on a board or volunteer at the Pine Grove, the Hoffman or EVCNB?

Clubs are exclusive and you have to be a member. Teams are inclusive and anyone can join. I say we create a TEAM Manzanita and a new future together.

When the City reduced our base water allotment last year from 4,000 gallons to 2,000 gallons per month we were told that this was necessary to bring into alignment water production costs with revenue and to encourage conservation. In order to accomplish these goals, households that exceeded their monthly base allotment would pay a surcharge each and every month because you were now considered a “heavy user”.
City staff claimed that they analyzed residential household water usage to get winter and summer averages. They took out those homes that were Short Term Rentals because of the high water usage associated with visitors using those homes and came up with the remaining residential usage averages for the “general homeowner” of 3,900 gallons of water per month in the summer and 1,600 gallons in the winter months.
Almost as an aside, City staff in explaining who these remaining “general homeowners” were and how they arrived at these averages stated ” I will clarify that it is people that live here full time and second homeowners, I don’t have a way in our water system to distinguish between the two”.
There are approximately three second homeowners for every one full time household in Manzanita. If you take the water usage of a full time resident household and combine it with the household water usage of three part time homeowners whose homes are largely empty for weeks or months at a time during the year, you will undoubtedly get the skewed residential averages that the City has presented. The result is large numbers of full time resident households now paying monthly surcharges for exceeding 2,000 gallons per month.
Numerous public organizations track community domestic water usage including the US Environmental Protection Agency and estimate full time household usage at 60 -100 gallons per person per day. In order to avoid paying a water surcharge every month, each member of a two person household in Manzanita would have to use less than 35 gallons of water each day or about half of the low end of the EPA estimate. Instead of considering this readily available information to establish a realistic base allotment, the City conducts a flawed analysis that includes the admission that it lacks the ability to evaluate the actual water usage of full time Manzanita water customers.
If water revenue needs to be increased to cover production costs especially in the summer when visitors create the need for more water production, have those visitors pay for their usage. We are constantly reminded of the benefits of turning our community into a visitor destination and that residents should be grateful for the financial largesse that comes from this transformation. The City claims that visitors, through their Transient Lodging Tax (TLT) contributions fund the majority of City services including infrastructure funding. Our water system is our most important community infrastructure yet the City has never allowed a single dollar of visitor generated TLT revenue to be transferred from the General Fund to the Water Operating Fund to assist in the operation and maintenance of the system. An additional benefit of visitors contributing to the operation of our water system is that we would receive a reasonable base allotment of water and a stream of revenue that would keep downward pressure on future water rate increases for full time homeowners.
Be prepared to hear that the Water Utility Fund as an Enterprise Fund, should establish rates from its users to cover all of its costs of operation and maintenance. Manzanita has a large class of water users in the form of visitors who are creating these service demands. The City has the ability to use revenue collected from these visitors for the water demand that they create but it chooses not to and once again visitors are at the root of a community livability issue. In light of this fact, creation of an equitable allotment of water and rates for full time residents requires a more creative policy solution by our Council.
There is nothing prohibiting the Council from transferring a portion of the estimated $1.3 million in Transient Lodging Tax in their FY 24-25 Budget back to the Water Utility Fund as recognition of the increasing water demand of these visitors and paying their share of that increased production cost. After many years of Council neglect to keep water rates at adequate levels and failing to keep System Development Charges updated so developers paid for their share of water infrastructure improvements for their new developments, the Council seems to have found a way for full time residents to now bear the cost burden of this past neglect.
Fortunately for residents, a consequence of the November referendum is that the City has the opportunity to answer questions raised in its initial study and adopt new funding policies that require visitors to contribute to the operation and maintenance of our water system.
The Council is currently developing new water rates including appropriate base allotments and tier surcharges per quarter should citizens vote to retain quarterly billing at the November election. They have asked citizens to contact them with questions and concerns at citycouncil@ci.manzanita.or.us
Consider sharing what you would have them do as a full time resident.
1. Restore a reasonable residential household base water allotment of 12,000 gallons per quarter consistent with recognized national studies.
2. Do not increase the base residential water charge to more than $142.68 per quarter.
3. Require visitors to pay their share of any additional needed Water Utility Fund revenue for costs for the operation and production of our water through transfers of TLT revenue to the Water Utility Fund.
How the Council responds in this matter will go a long way to confirm just whose interests they are prioritizing.

One more post,

I didn’t watch the debate last night, but woke up to these headlines on Drudge:

“OPERATION REPLACE BIDEN”

and

“DEMS HAVE 130 DAYS”

I had been telling folks that the debate wouldn’t happen cuz Joe is too far gone. I figured they had some sort of plan to avert the debate, then replace him. Then I realized that throwing Joe to the dogs was exactly how the Clinton/Obama war-with-Russia psychopaths were going to get rid of Sleepy Joe – who can’t beat Trump – let Joe crash and burn on the world stage! And I was right.

What a bunch of nice folks the Dems are!

So kind and compassionate. The sad event you witnessed on the world stage was the Michelle Obama crowd “taking the high road”. I’m not sure how she knows so much about roads anyway, as there aren’t many roads near her 18-million dollar mansion on the tiny Massachusetts island Martha’s Vineyard.

That said, I actually don’t feel bad at all for Joe Biden, or his son Hunter, and I am happy to see the racist sociopath war-whore getting ever closer to the hell he deserves.

The question we all have is, who will the Psychopath War-Pig Vax-Pig No-Border Dem-Whores currently running our country pick next?

I’m thinking Michelle Obama can convince millions of Democrats to inject ‘bird flu’ mRNA-tech into their bodies, accept CBDCs, and get into a hot war with Russia.

But before the worst administration in American history is over, and Trump takes office, can we please, PLEASE!!!!! Have Kamala Harris use her pronouns while addressing the nation from the Oval Office? It would pair well with Slick Willy and Monica’s misadventures in that oddly-shaped room.

“Hello America and the world. My name is Kamala Harris, I am a woman sitting at the table, my pronouns are she/her, I am wearing a purple blouse, and I am the President of the United States.”

PLEASE DEMOCRATS LET THIS HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WE AMERICANS WHO HAVE BEEN SO PATIENT WITH DEMOCRATS IN THE FACE OF THEIR CHILDLIKE INSANITY FOR FOUR YEARS DESERVE A GOOD LAUGH!!!!!

“…cuz my money is spent, on that god-damned rent, neither party is mine, not the jackass or the elephant.” – Public Enemy, ‘When I get to Arizona”, (circa 1991)

BBQers of the last 15-20 years may remember “Source To Sea: The Columbia River Swim”, a documentary film I made dealing with salmon, natives, and the once clean water of Che’Wanna, aka The Columbia River. The film won several awards on the environmental film festival circuit that year.

In that film I interviewed Yakama elder Russel Jim, a round-faced full-blooded Yakama scientist who dealt with the Hanford Nuclear Reservation for the tribe (he has died). His significant physical stature was that of Jeff Trenary, also genetically native, and familiar to many who use this forum. Russel used words like “pyrophoric” and he had a hatchet hanging on his office wall that I’m sure he would have loved to bury into the forehead of the CEO of Bechtel. My producing partner, Ralph, told Russel as much, and Russel just smiled.

Russell also fished Celilo Falls as a child before The Dalles dam was built. That dam produces very little electricity, and in my opinion, should be removed so We the People of Oregon can have our sacred, Niagara Falls-rivaling Celilo Falls back. Those falls, sacred fishing grounds for several area tribes since time immemorial, should never have been flooded by The Greedy Ones.

And part of that flooding provides great insight into ‘conspiracy theory’, a term non-thinkers like to use so they don’t have to pay attention to and/or look at ugly stuff, such as threats to their health and livelihoods, our open southern border, their complicity in war, etc.

Today – and you may have seen it – there is a railroad bridge connecting Oregon and Washington, just west of the now buried Celilo Falls, east of The Dalles. That bridge was built, according to Russel who lived there and fished the falls as a kid (mega-huge salmon caught on hand-made scaffolds via hand-held hoop net. Um…hell yeah! I want in!), and, check this out, but it isn’t fun – that bridge was built – with a DECK THAT CAN LIFT TO ACCOMMODATE CONTAINER SHIPS – and check it out – IT WAS BUILT 20 YEARS (TWENTY YEARS) BEFORE there was ANY TALK OF DEEP-WATER CONTAINER SHIP TRAFFIC ON THE COLUMBIA RIVER!!!

“They”, the conspirators in this case, built a bridge-lift on a bridge that could accommodate container ships, 20-years BEFORE there was any talk of container ships on The Columbia (!), (they certainly didn’t tell the Indians) because they were confident that 20-years in the future, ‘they’ were going to successfully flood-out the Celilo People and destroy their lives and culture so their buddies (co-conspirators) could make money via container ship and barge traffic pressing into the grain-growing country of The Palouse.

That’s what happened.

The events described above constitute a conspiracy in my view, and I have just outlined a ‘conspiracy theory’.

That wasn’t so bad now, was it?

Anyway, can you imagine being part of building a bridge and looking upstream and seeing this entire Native Village of Salmon People fishing and living and laughing and loving-their-lives and their children, as they had been doing since time immemorial – and knowing that you are complicit in destroying their town and homes and lives and THIER CHILDREN’S HOPE so a bunch of greedy grain growers in the Palouse – who cut your measly paycheck – can make an extra buck? There were/are roads and railroad tracks. Celilo did not need to be flooded. The People Of Oregon’s destruction of The Celilo People is, inarguably, so, so sad.

The Greedy Ones, The Conspirators, “The Sparrow Sisters”, as they have been remembered in Celilo lore, exist in myriad form.

Like the flooding of Celilo, the mass deaths from ‘the vax’, the mRNA tech, from The Greedy Ones, was known well in advance:

www.sott.net/article/492574-Japanese-leader-apologizes-to-the-unvaccinated-You-were-right-vaccines-are-killing-millions-of-our-loved-ones

When The Greedy Ones are clearly planning World War Three:

www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/ar-BB1oJkqR

…and in advance of that, are using lawfare (warfare with words) to anticipate a legal justification for murdering our daughters, that is CONSPIRACY to commit future murder:

www.securitywomen.org/post/u-s-congress-moves-closer-to-making-women-register-for-the-draft

The Greedy Ones are planning World War Three, and they have started building a damn across the Columbia River, and for some sick/strange reason, they are hell-bent on using our daughters as cement.

Is there a border CONSPIRACY? Looks like it, but this is example doesn’t speak to that, but to common sense.

This guy from Iran is more worried about America than any Democrat I have EVER HEARD FROM, and that is so incredibly shameful. Look how logical and smart this Iranian is. Then think about how stupid every open-border democrat is:

Who knew that water bills would be so controversial? The complaints were just complaints in the beginning. Now that a referendum is going forward, it will cost us time and money. And really, for what purpose?

The City of Manzanita approved a new rate structure in July to catch up on nine years of inflation. The plan also rewarded water conservation, and we went to monthly billing.

Complaints about this needed adjustment seem oddly centered on monthly vs. quarterly billing without focusing on the required catch-up from nine years of no increases. And very little has been mentioned about water conservation.

The city, with the help of numerous experts and the active participation of the community, meticulously crafted a new rate structure. This was not a hasty decision. It was a well-researched and considered change. However, due to the referendum, the water rate study now has to be redone, incurring a cost of $8500, not to mention the additional time and more attorney fees. The city has already spent $4500 on attorney fees.

Should the November ballot referendum pass, it will not restore what we had before. If it passes and we go to quarterly billing, rates have to cover the higher costs and account for the difference in averaging, and thus the base will very likely be higher. If it doesn’t pass, we go back to monthly billing, reverting to the current rate.

All of this confusion—for what? We needed a rate that covers the costs and a rate structure that encourages water conservation. This is what the city did.

Ultimately, the genuine cost is wasted time and dissension. We have a limited city staff and an unpaid city council. Their time is finite – and significant projects like the comprehensive plan are waiting.

Under the Apple Tree with Miz Honey Crisp

Sunday afternoon at NCRD Rick Estrin and the Nightcats took us to church. Virtuoso of the mouth organ, tin sandwich, or harmonica, Estrin took the stage in a lavender suit with more moves than the Solid Gold Dancers. From the opening number, Estrin and the wildly talented Nightcats brought the house to their feet playing a wide ranging mix of musical styles from old school Blues and R&B to Surf Rock.

Drummer, Derrick ‘D Mar’ Martin played drums for 15 years with Little Richard and has the chops to prove it. He worked the room with an amazing extended solo that had the audience begging for more.

Keyboardist Lorenzo Farrell has played with musicians like Elvin Bishop, Wee Willie Walker and others. A highly sought after instrumentalist, Farrell has been with the Nightcats since 2003.

Norway born guitarist, Kid Anderson, played with legend Charlie Musselwhite from 2004 until joining the Nightcats. His work as an engineer and producer at Greaseland Studio won him the 2017 Keeping the Blues Alive award.

These cats are the real deal and it was clear through the sets at NCRD that these musicians enjoy each other and what they do.

The show produced by our local good eggs—the North Coast Music Project was a fundraiser for the new health center and pharmacy in Wheeler. Once again NCMP brought great live music from world class performers to our corner of the world.

Miz Honey had an engagement with local gal pal Nina Kahnie and missed what she heard was a smoking after party at The Lighthouse with more great live music by Johnny Wheels and the Swamp Donkeys who performed with a special appearance on drums by Tony TC Coleman. Estrin and the Nightcats played a final set to close out evening.

Miz Honey heard that the dance floor was packed with sweaty bodies, and the wine and Bacardi’s flowed like the mighty Nehalem River.

Until next time, stay sweet and juicy!

Microsoft News Network (Bill Gates’ rag that is presently mostly run by the intel agencies), reports that WW3 is imminent. That network is mostly run by the intel agencies these days, at the very least they are very often a primary source for info.

And the American intel agencies should know that World War Three is imminent as they are the ones feverishly trying to start a BIG WAR for the military-industrial-complex and big tech and big banks and the war-pig Americans who support the corrupt Biden regime.

And the Democrats are ready to KILL YOUR DAUGHTERS after the BIG WAR they are starting GETS REALLY BIG:

And why the hell isn’t the trans crowd freaking out THAT THEY ARE NOT INCLUDED IN A MILITARY DRAFT???? WHY ARE TYPICALLY LOUD TRANS FOLKS SO QUIET ON THIS ONE? HEY DEMS, DON’T FORGET TO DRAFT THE TRANS CROWD!!!!!!!!!!! EQUITY EQUITY EQUITY!!!!!!!!! THEY GET TO DIE AND/OR BE MAIMED TOO!!!!!!!!

And this is the headline (below) we get after four years of the war criminals from the Obama and Clinton Admins that are presently and illegally running our federal government.

FOUR MORE YEARS OF BIDEN (the Clintons and Obama) and most of this world is gonna go down in nuclear flames. You think I’m joking? I ain’t going for clicks. DEMOCRATS, PLEASE LOOK WHAT YOU HAVE DONE. This headline won’t happen after four more years of Biden because we will be living in a Democrat-nuked hell-scape.

Your headline Democrats, after four years of your party’s sick, anti-American, anti-life rule:

But if you really want to understand World War Three, we are already in it, and this part of the war isn’t about tanks and bombs.

This interview with the world’s TOP BIO-WEAPONS EXPERT, who just testified in front of the EU, and other govt’s across the world, is one of the most important interviews in the history of humanity.

Articles for the impeachment of Senator Jeff Merkley can be found at 41:00.

Hey Trump supporters! Treason charges against President Trump can be found at 01:00:00 and 01:25:00

This is easily the most important interview I have ever heard, and that speaks to the guest Dr. Martin, not Alex.

Tillamook County Housing Commission
·
Is an ADU right for you?
People are talking about ADUs as a potential solution to our housing crisis. What are ADUs and how can they help? ADU stands for “accessory dwelling unit,” which is a smaller, independent residence or rental located on the same lot as a single-family home. ADUs are sometimes referred to as apartments, secondary dwellings and granny flats. These can be a converted space or addition in an existing home (a garage or bonus room, for example). They can also be a separate structure like a converted detached garage, shed or tiny home somewhere on the property.
The Tillamook County Housing Commission is recommending ADUs as a housing production solution. Tillamook County does not have a lot of buildable land, so adding ADUs on lots that already have a home on them can reduce the time and expense of adding new housing.
ADUs can be a great solution for older adults seeking to downsize and for anyone trying to find affordable rentals. Homeowners can also create additional income streams by renting out an ADU. ADUs must meet certain requirements and it is important to note that, where these are being allowed, they must be for long-term and not as vacation rentals.

SCIENCE
In response to those who have been following our excellent community discussion, ‘science is real’, I will preface my remarks buy relating to a recent, fairly long term dialog via email with a member of our community.

I was invited to join an in person discussion group to “bring the blues and the reds together”, that followed a proscribed protocol to participate. Everyone got equal time to speak and to be civil. Being more inclined to share in writing the individual agreed and what followed over a few months were numerous emails presenting our views on everything from gardening and music to history and pressing world events. The per tenant point in relating this exchange is that in my very first introduction expressing who I was, I pointed out that the over riding influence in our communications, besides of course any personal history, would be our sources for information that guide our judgement and beliefs.

Throughout our exchanges, we shared mutual love of musicians, authors, family, food, the good things, but regarding more serious issues, I leaned heavily into the arc of history that brought us to the present, hoping to show a coherent pattern to support my perspectives but from the very beginning to the last email, my versions of events were discounted out of hand 90% of the time, because the publication or medium was considered an unacceptable source. Examples would be podcasts, blogs, you tube interviews, alternative news sites. This pen pal was much more inclined to look forward, find common ground and move toward the common good. Fair enough, that’s what most of us want but we all know what’s said about not studying history and eventually there were too many disagreements about where we are, so choosing directions for positive forward movement became agreeing to disagree. It all came down to who and what we each believed to be true, faith in our sources. If my referrals were not published, in print, in the NYT, POST, WALL STREET JOURNAL, SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN, TIME and the like, they were suspect. I would point out that considering most of said outlets are owned by a few individuals very heavily invested in shaping narratives to protect their heavy investments, thinking they carry weight because they once wore the robes of truth and respect, made them suspect. The idea that history can and is often revised as it happens, depending on who gets to write or report it, can be difficult to understand let alone accept but it is true. This is the theme I would not set aside while trying to describe our common ground. It’s not unusual for two people to experience the same thing and tell very different stories, but directing policy without consensus can be disastrous on a large scale.

Pivotal events involving our nation, both internally and internationally have increased exponentially over the past 150 years, driven by industry and electricity, until now, well, how to describe; it’s horrendous? ( note the list of wars and coups above). One thing is certain, it takes way more time and energy than most folks have to keep up with and filter events for truth and that’s across the boards; science, policies, creative advances, nations working and not working together, understanding climate, keeping up with AI and surveillance, on and on, and the whole parade of personalities that present their part of the show.

Sources are important. None of us are so qualified that we don’t rely on others for their expertise. Below is a raft of sources which the curious student of science, politics, history etc, can explore and decide for themselves if they are credible, and believe me, I know someone else might comprise a list to refute each and every one of the offerings below. Go for it. Such is the nature of the tools and depth of information we have in our hands, but I think dispensing with the term “conspiracy” and just saying theory would encourage education. And, as mentioned before, the impact of the speed and momentum carrying the whole world forward presently should be part of any conversation: ubiquitous devices, overwhelming messaging.

Regarding ones love of country and how they express it I would remind folks that vehemently disagreeing with policies is a right and obligation, especially if you feel the leaders you did, or did not choose, go off the rails. Maybe we should slow down so we can hear the message the guy on the side of the road waving red flags is trying to say, even if we don’t like the distraction, because he’s trying to warn us the bridge around the curve has collapsed.

COVID- THE EVENT

Unlike the news shorts we were inundated with from the start, these links take some time. (My apologies for my poor PC skills if you have to copy and paste each link).

Within weeks of covid appearing on the world scene, Dr. Francis Boyle determined it was lab altered.
This link is just his resume, which should lend weight to his conclusion. It will be almost impossible to find anyone in the whole world who has worked as tirelessly for human rights and justice.

He’s one of the many medical doctors who the whole world listened to and quoted before COVID, and being the first to raise red flags about the mRNA treatment in writing, was one of the first to be censored and slandered. No one is any more qualified than he is to educate us on this landslide of poor choices.

FORIEGN POLICY-

History is important and there is a lot of it that the citizens of this nation are either ignorant of or in denial of, and it is especially impactful since the beginning of the twentieth century. After WWII, the combination of complacency and accelerating event cycles leave us finding it hard to believe that our trusted leaders lie to us on a scale we now know to be true. In that vein, here’s two books that will help clarify:
The Devils Chess Board, by David Talbot, and expanding upon and updating is, One Nation Under Blackmail; Volume 1 and 2, by Whitney Webb. Our nations past is not the history we were taught in school.

The CIA and our military have been busy in our name and as the business of war has grown, so has its bonds with our congress.

geopoliticaleconomy.com/2022/09/13/us-251-military-interventions-1991/
I love the USofA as the idea it is intended to be. I am learning how elevated the framers of our republic were, how complete their vision was and how when the documents were completed and signed, we the people were admonished to be vigilant and participate, to not become lax. I think those framers would now agree with me that we allowed or nation to become a bloody empire.

www.sott.net/article/479090-Spreading-Democracy-the-American-Way
It’s not that our nation hasn’t done nobel things or hasn’t shared it’s advancments with other nations but if we peel back the Norman Rockwell, Father Knows Best veneers and ‘how we won the world war’ narrative, there’s alot to atone for, and there is a lag time for repercussions from brutal past aggressions. It takes generations for injustices done to other nations to boomerang back on the agressor. Think about imigrants from failed states.

Pepe Escobar has become what Naom Chomsky used to be, a world repected geo-political analyst. US and it’s Western European vasals keep trying to duct tape the empire together while shooting themselves in their feet, their legs and it looks like the’re going for the head now. Stupidity or intentional destruction I don’t know but we are perilously close to finding out.
