The News
Sun 3.10.24
I get my news, such as it is, from these sources:
Zero Hedge;
https://www.zerohedge.com/
I post on it as The French Bitch. ZH is conservative, with a focus on, Wall St., the Fed, money, stocks, but they cover it all, who’s up, who’s down, world politics If it’s worthy of note, they will address it. Some very smart, well-educated people post on it as well as macho boys. ZH tries to be unbiased and they get all the good writers, Greenwald, Alex Kraimer, Taibbi, Kunstler, Pepe Escobar, Hersh.
The Voltaire Network,
https://www.voltairenet.org/?lang=en
This site is translated in a number of languages; the url above brings up the English version. This is Editor Thierry Meyssan’s blog. I would say Thierry is similar to Seymour Hersh, but on the world level; he knows everybody. After 9/11 he was the first to write a book on the uncovering on what really happened. His country, France ejected him for it. He went to live in Arab countries and has connections with all the right people there. His writing is well researched and I absolutely trust his work.
NEWSMAX

Further down the scale I get little bites of ongoing latest news from NewsMax delivered to my inbox on a regular basis, the nitty gritty stuff.
The Gateway Pundit,
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/
They are biased and so the writing suffers for it. The Israelis are held up as much maligned good folks. But other than that they are good news hounds and are often first at uncovering information. And to their honor, they are the only ones who commit to cover the imprisoned people who were arrested on January 6. A quick breeze through its site, 5-10 minutes.
X
https://twitter.com/home?lang=en
Lately I have joined X, formerly Twitter, Lorraine Saint Pierre @luhrenloup, and acquired my little blue check. I’ll see how that turns out. A lot of it is violent. We’ve had all the horrible photos of half-mad little Palestinian children terrified of the unfolding catastrophe. This is a very bad time throughout the world and it is reflected in the violent postings one sees on X of beatings, shootings, but there is also some very creative work being done.
My latest political thinking on who is worth paying attention to runs along this line:
I'm sure that if elected, Donald Trump, once the grifters have settled down, will bring some stability to our country, the markets will become more stable. And America's cities will revive. were talking years to get out of the financial mess we’re in. But at what price? A few days ago, Donald spoke up for Israel, offered his support, he will not condone antisemitism
-- Revulsion against genocide is not antisemitism.
Mister Trump is letting us know he's aware of the genocide occurring in Palestine and the People's protests about this. He's not going to condone it. This is the price we pay for some stability in our country.
But it’s a death blow for the United States. That it has become partners in the destruction of the Palestinian Peoples is a crime against all of humanity. This will not go unpunished, especially by those who've been disrespected by our country. It would have been better if Trump had acknowledged the genocide and offered to put an end to the country’s part in this.
I will vote for Donald, but aware of the price and consequences. There is no one else strong enough to counter the true rulers of the United states. The CIA would delight in snuffing out Robert Junior adding another twist to the Kennedy Curse.
But I also know, we have a problem with the Zionists. They call the shots in our country. No one gets elected that does not meet with their approval.
