WASHINGTON   — U.S. intelligence officials on Tuesday accused a conservative financial news website with a significant American readership of amplifying Kremlin propaganda and alleged five media outlets targeting Ukrainians have taken direction from Russian spies. The officials said Zero Hedge, which has 1.2 million Twitter followers, published articles created by Moscow-controlled media that were then shared by outlets and people unaware of their nexus to Russian intelligence. The officials did not say whether they thought Zero Hedge knew of any links to spy agencies and did not allege direct links between the website and Russia.CORRECTIONS*

Comments:

And so it begins. Everything - EVERYTHING - that goes against the tyrants is connected to Russia. Note the absence of China being mentioned for their propaganda that is readily spread by the legacy media. Who will speak when they come for me.

How can we tell the difference between Zero Hedge's alleged propaganda and "U.S. intelligence officials" propaganda?

ZeroHedge is working for Russia? ZeroHedge has some of the fairest and most balanced reporting and analysis on the subject. These intelligence agencies have got to be disbanded now or this country will never be safe. They are malicious and totally out of control?

Here is ZeroHedge’s rebuttal. Now We've Done It: We P***ed Off The CIA Because the site forbids the P word, which is also in the url for ZeroHedge’s article, you’ll have to go there and find it. Here is part of what they wrote after they explained that they publish material from many sources: The bottom line, as we told the AP, is that SCF is merely "one of our hundreds of contributors — unlike Mainstream Media, we try to publish a wide spectrum of views that cover both sides of a given story." And no matter how much we disagree with any given guest post, we will give it the same billing as all our other articles, unlike the NYT which spontaneously imploded in an echo-chamber scandal of its own creation after it published that infamous Tom Cotton op-ed back in 2020. And speaking of contributors, maybe the AP could have rounded out its story by providing some perspective on both sides instead of just tracking the narrative it was spoon fed by the CIA. If it did, it would have encountered views such as these: (tweets) What is remarkable is that in its bizarre hit piece attempt to silence us, the "deep state" has pulled out the same trite and discredited Russiagate conspiracy theory whose popularity crashed and burned long ago, yet which paradoxically still makes an appearance now and then in hopes of appeasing its few remaining "lowest-common denominator" readers, which still fall for the real hoaxes... such as weapons of mass destruction, or that Putin is invading Ukraine tomorrow, or that Democrats did not spy on Trump.

Given the "reliability" (actually the lack of it) of our "intelligence services" these days, I tend to doubt almost anything that "the intel boys" put out. Between the lies and the incompetence, how often are they actually right? It is getting rarer and rarer. Merit is such an old fashioned reason to hire or promote someone.

The school board election was central in Saturday’s discussion on critical race theory hosted by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and Blount County United. One school of thought primarily manifested in the race relations symposium, and speakers encouraged the audience to be active in the community. Katy Chiles, an author and professor at UT, presented the symposium’s section on understanding critical race theory. Chiles started with a definition, a contrast and a call for action. Critical race theory is, she said, a framework to analyze origins of racial inequities in America. It is not, she contrasted, a label for white oppression or guilt.

Hollywood’s love affair with China has been well documented. But Hollywood actors’ love affair with China has not. In recent years, American actors like Michael Douglas, Michael Pitt, Frank Grillo (who played a starring role in “Wolf Warrior 2,” the highest-grossing Chinese film in history), Bruce Willis, and Adrien Brody have all contributed to the pro-China narrative.Thankfully, there is one actor who’s not interested in apologizing to the CCP. That man is Keanu Reeves.

As one of three liberal justices on the Supreme Court, his vacancy, reported by several outlets Wednesday, will pave the way for President Joe Biden to nominate a new judge to the highest court.

Twice in the final months of the Trump administration, the country’s top military officer was so fearful that the president’s actions might spark a war with China that he moved urgently to avert armed conflict. In a pair of secret phone calls, Gen. Mark A. Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, assured his Chinese counterpart, Gen. Li Zuocheng of the People’s Liberation Army, that the United States would not strike, according to a new book by Washington Post associate editor Bob Woodward and national political reporter Robert Costa.

Social Security and Medicare trust funds are in dire financial condition due to rising benefit costs, but the biggest problem facing the two largest federal entitlement programs is how they are funded, according to a non-profit that advocates greater government transparency and accountability. “Our bottom line is the trust funds are all a shell game, there is no money in the trust funds. As [former U.S. Comptroller-General] David Walker says, trust funds have no funds and should be distrusted,” Truth in Accounting (TIA) President Sheila Weinberg told The Epoch Times Thursday.

The statement said the U.S. intelligence community had evidence that several researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology laboratory were sick with Covid-like symptoms in autumn 2019—implying the Chinese government had hidden crucial information about the outbreak for months—and that the WIV lab, despite “presenting itself as a civilian institution,” was conducting secret research projects with the Chinese military. The State Department alleged a Chinese government cover-up and asserted that “Beijing continues today to withhold vital information that scientists need to protect

Canada’s medical assistance in dying (MAiD) law is already the most permissive euthanasia and assisted-suicide legislation in the world. Understandably controversial in itself, there are many horror stories surrounding its implementation. For example, as lifesitenews.com recently reported, A 71-year-old widower was admitted to a Southwestern Ontario hospital after a fall. His family says during his admission he contracted an infectious diarrheal illness. He was humiliated by staff for the smell of his room, his family said. He developed a new shortness of breath that was not comprehensively assessed. In this context, a hospital team member suggested he would qualify for MAiD.

Greenwood Police Chief Jim Ison said the suspected shooter was killed by a "good Samaritan with a handgun." While the armed bystander reportedly had a legal gun permit, the mall's property policy does not permit weapons on the premises.

Former Democratic Labor Secretary Robert Reich believes it may be time for Democrats to kick Sen.

Reich, who served as secretary of Labor under President Clinton and was a member of President Obama’s economic transition advisory board, wrote on Substack that kicking Manchin out of the party would at least allow Democrats to admit they didn’t truly have control when Americans head off to vote in the looming midterm elections.
