"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free... it expects what never was and never will be." - Thomas Jefferson
"Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost." - Thomas Jefferson
"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable." - John F. KennedyThe state of the press in America, and the West in general, is so rotten and corrupted that comedians, hackers, former wrestlers, and regular citizens have to report crimes, uncover government deception, and expose the excessive abuses of power, which in a functioning democracy is a job that would be performed by journalists and reporters who make up the Fourth Estate.
"A nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people." - John F. Kennedy
Instead of educating citizens about the issues of the day, the media is spreading government disinformation, brainwashing the public about fake threats like "domestic terrorists", creating false rumors, misdirecting and/or subduing public discontent, demonizing thoughtful political dissidents, and covering up the crimes and lies of the dishonorable Establishment in Washington D.C.
It is no wonder that people hate the press. It doesn't consist of impartial and gracious minds but prejudiced idiots with hidden motives, discovering truth not among them. The corrupted, government-whipped press doesn't function as a tool to reveal the truth and make fools out of liars, but is used as a psychological and political weapon to get people to support criminal wars, and to discredit individuals who express unpopular political views. Reporters jump at the opportunity to sit across Tiger Woods in a press conference, but they're nowhere to be found when there is a Bilderberg Group meeting in session.
Next to corrupt politicians, banking thieves, criminal corporations, and police state thugs on the line of betrayers of the public interest are clueless reporters and government-whipped journalists who call truth-tellers conspiracy theorists, and ignorantly declare that FEMA camps don't exist. Whether they know it or not, these professional betrayers are destroying the values of freedom, truth, and justice, and turning America into a giant, chaotic wasteland ruled by scum.
Leave it to Alex Jones, a radio talk show host and documentarian, and Jesse Ventura, a former wrestler, Navy Seals, TV host, and Governor of Minnesota, to shed light on the 9/11 false-flag attacks, the manufactured wars in the Middle East, Wall Street's criminal banking clique, the fraudulent war on terror, and America's FEMA camps that are managed by the Department of Homeland Security as an integral part of the police state.
In the latest episode of Ventura's truTV series "Conspiracy Theory" the former Governor tracked down FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) camps, and similar facilities across America, and then confronted the U.S. congressmen who sponsored the House bill, H.R.645 -- National Emergency Centers Establishment Act, which was introduced on January 22, 2009 by Florida Congressman Alcee Hastings, and explicitly calls for the construction of military camps for use during a period of national crisis.
The H.R.645 bill is another step in America's slide into despotism. And the fact that Hastings is behind the bill, who was impeached by Congress and convicted by the Senate in 1989 for bribery and perjury after serving ten years as a judge in Florida's federal court, is just one of the reasons why FEMA camps should be immediately destroyed. Only human scum stamp such anti-freedom bills into law.
The stated purpose of the bill is most likely a public cover, as it is certainly not for the security of the American people. It is generally assumed that such prison-like facilities will be necessary for the government to maintain order during a state of national emergency, or when there is some kind of existential crisis, but America is already in a state of national emergency, which is why public ignorance about FEMA camps is so dangerous as they can be deemed operational by the government at any minute.
The American people have a right to know about the existence of FEMA camps, and the press has an obligation to inform them. But, as we know, the press is not on the American people's side, so citizens must look elsewhere to gain knowledge about FEMA camps, and the government threat against civil liberties that such camps represent.
There was hardly any coverage in the press about President Obama re-declaring on September 10, 2010 the following statement that was made by former President Bush after the 9/11 attacks: "The terrorist threat that led to the declaration on September 14, 2001, of a national emergency continues. For this reason, I have determined that it is necessary to continue in effect after September 14, 2010, the national emergency with respect to the terrorist threat."
The "terrorist threat" that is used in the statement above is so ambiguous that it is applicable to any threat against the Washington Establishment. The list includes anti-war activists, political dissidents, environmental activists, right-wing groups, etc. Basically, anyone who does not like the criminal Establishment is deemed a "terrorist threat."
The real threat against the American people stems not from radical Muslims or radical Americans, but from the radical state terrorists who seized control of Washington through a silent, and unreported coup d'état. These rascals oversee a completely criminal government, and consistently lie to the American people, along with members of the U.S. military who are fighting and dying in fraudulent wars in the name of democracy and freedom.
In "Bombshell: FEMA Camps Confirmed" Aaron Dykes writes that Ventura was ducked, and mocked by several Congressmen as he approached them to discuss the H.R.645 bill:
Despite hundreds of government documents identifying emergency and contingency plans, including plans to deal with mass fatalities, insurrection, internment and quarantines, Ventura and his team repeatedly encounter outrageous denial and avoidance by officials at every level. The mainstream media have avoided and downplayed these on-the-record plans for FEMA Camps and Homeland Security Emergency Facilities for years. Clearly, it is not meant to be a public relations talking point, and it is no surprise that members of Congress, including those who wrote the bill to create FEMA camps in America, are reluctant to discuss the matter.Congressmen Hastings, Jim Gerlach, Steven Cohen, and others who supported the H.R.645 bill may avoid Ventura, and refuse to answers his questions about FEMA camps for now, but they won't be able to hide forever. Once the American people come face to face with the evil police state, they won't have to ask cowardly Congressmen questions about what FEMA camps are for. They'll know that these camps were constructed all along as part of a larger control grid to keep them enslaved, and poor. And they won't be happy.
"A great revolution," the German poet Goethe said, "is always the fault of the government, never of the people. Revolutions are an absolute impossibility when governments are continually just and alert, so that they come to meet the people with the reforms which the times require, and do not resist so long that the inevitable is seized by force from below," (Eckermann's Conversations With Goethe, pg. 26-27).
A revolution in America is not far away. Whether it will be peaceful or violent depends on how the rotten Establishment in Washington responds to the American people's calls for new political and economic reforms. So far, they are not responding like intelligent statesmen, but like criminal tricksters. They know that the existing order can only be maintained by brutal violence and repression, as deception has run its course.
The current talk in Washington about deficit reform directly targets Social Security and Medicare but deliberately ignores the reality that Wall Street looted the country and must be punished, and that the trillion dollars wars in the Middle East should never have been waged. Such talk proves that there are no visionary leaders in Washington, with the exception of Dr. Ron Paul, who are courageous and intelligent enough to lead the country out of the dark abyss into which it has fallen, and avert an incoming political cataclysm.
The press has the opportunity to change America peacefully, and bring the criminal traitors in Washington to justice by directing public light at the deep-state's monumental corruption, deception, and crimes. Hopefully Ventura's odyssey into the dark heart of Washington will encourage and inspire others in the press to enlighten the American people about how their government was taken over by a cabal of evil criminals and traitors.
