Riddle me this my friends: The White House has officially admitted to creating misinformation, disinformation and malinformation as part of their strategic campaign against Russia in Ukraine. NBC news gleefully embraces the strategy {SEE HERE}. However, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has an official agency mission {SEE HERE} to “help the American people understand the scope and scale of Mal, Dis, and Misinformation activities,” and Google/Big Tech have officially aligned with both U.S. government interests, promising to target, remove and penalize any entity engaged in Mal, Dis and Misinformation activities.
Please think about the inherent questions. On one hand the White House and Intelligence Community is admitting they are purposefully and intentionally creating misinformation, and on the other hand the White House and Intelligence Community are promising to target the origin of misinformation. In the middle, Big Tech speech police are saying they will be the arbiters of what constitutes misinformation. See the problem?
Before ‘circling back’ to the previously emphasized CTH position, first take a look at how “senior administration officials” are admitting to NBC the creation and promotion of misinformation under the auspices of weaponized false intelligence reports:
(Via NBC) – […] three U.S. officials told NBC News this week there is no evidence Russia has brought any chemical weapons near Ukraine. They said the U.S. released the [mis]information to deter Russia from using the banned munitions.
[…] Coordinated by the White House National Security Council, the unprecedented intelligence releases have been so frequent and voluminous, officials said, that intelligence agencies had to devote more staff members to work on the declassification process, scrubbing the [mis]information so it wouldn’t betray sources and methods.
[…] The idea is to pre-empt and disrupt the Kremlin’s tactics, complicate its military campaign, “undermine Moscow’s propaganda and prevent Russia from defining how the war is perceived in the world,” said a Western government official familiar with the strategy.
Multiple U.S. officials acknowledged that the U.S. has used [mis]information as a weapon even when confidence in the accuracy of the information wasn’t high. Sometimes it has used low-confidence intelligence for deterrent effect, as with chemical agents, and other times, as an official put it, the U.S. is just “trying to get inside Putin’s head.” (read more)
Despite the aligned ideological spin NBC puts on the context, the bottom line is that senior officials in the U.S. government are lying in an effort to create and support a propaganda campaign against Vladimir Putin and Russia vis-a-vis the Ukraine conflict.
The justification for the manipulation of information, the creation of dis/mal/and misinformation, and the propaganda campaign writ large, is based on a position that the U.S. is on the virtuous side of the conflict. Where virtue is determined by the officials creating the lies. Yes, lying for the public good, is essentially now the admitted narrative.
Putting aside the creation of lies to advance a strategic geopolitical objective, the bigger admission in the U.S. government statements is that much of the information coming to the American public -from them- is manufactured, false, fabricated and wrong.
Simultaneous to this admission of manufactured lies, the platforms of big tech and social media are saying they will target, remove and block any content that contradicts the official government position. In the case of Google, the dominating search engine for information over the internet, they state it is an infraction against their policy to espouse a claim “that contradicts official government records.” Yet, the U.S. government is officially admitting the information they are creating for the government records, is self-admittedly false.
Not wanting to overinflate the CTH position, but this now admitted reality is exactly why we have taken the following position.
…”There is no such thing as “disinformation” or “misinformation”. There is only information you accept and information you do not accept. You were not born with a requirement to believe everything you are told; rather, you were born with a brain that allows you to process the information you receive and make independent decisions.”…
There are only two elements within the public discussion of information, truth and not truth.
In an era filled with “fact-checkers” and institutional guardians at the gates of Big Tech, let me explain exactly why it is important not to accept the speech rules of the guards.
When you accept the terms “disinformation”, “misinformation” or the newest lingo, “malinformation,” you are beginning to categorize truth and lies in various shades. You are merging black and white, right and wrong, into various shades of grey.
When your mind works in the grey zone, you are, by direct and factual consequence, saying there is a problem. You are correct, however, this is where people may make a mistake. That problem is supposed to be there.
It is not a solution to the problem to try and remove the grey simply because it takes too much work to separate the white pixels from the black ones. You were born with a gift, the greatest gift a loving God could provide. You were born with a brain and set of natural instincts that are tools to do this pixel separation, use them.
If you define the grey work as a problem you cannot solve on your own, you open the door for others to solve that problem for you. You begin to abdicate the work, and that’s when trouble can enter. The sliding scale of Pinocchios is one of the most familiar yet goofy outcomes.
Put more clearly, when you accept the terminology “disinformation”, you accept a problem. The problem is then the tool by which authorities will step in to make judgements. Speech, in its most consequential form, is then qualified by others to whom you have sub-contracted your thinking.
When you willingly sub-contract information filters to others, you have lost connection with the raw information. CTH was founded upon the belief that truth has no agenda, nor does it care about you, your feelings, or your opinion of it. It just sits there, empirically existing as evidence of information in its most pure form.
The search for truth, in all things, is the mission objective of this assembly. Often, we don’t like the truth; often, the truth is bitter, cold, challenging and even painful to accept. However, the truth doesn’t care. Information in its most raw form is ambivalent to your opinion. If you struggle to accept these things, that’s when you need grey. The New York Times is not called the “grey lady” accidentally.
Personally, I am an absorber of information – perhaps on a scale that is unusual. But I do not discount information from any form until I can put context to it and see if the information makes sense given all the variables present. When something doesn’t feel right, it’s almost always because it isn’t right.
Often, I find myself struggling in the grey and complex. It is not unusual to spend days researching, digging, clarifying a situation, only to discover the path to finding the truth is in another direction entirely. Erasing everything and starting over is frustrating, but it is genuinely the only approach that works; and often finding truth is supposed to be difficult, that’s why it is rewarding.
In the digital information age, we are bombarded with information. It is easy to be overwhelmed and need to find something or someone who has better skills at separating the black grains from the white ones. All opinions in this quest should be considered; thus, it is important to allow the free flow of information.
I am not necessarily a speech absolutist. There is some language that needs to be constrained if we are to participate in a respectful society, with grandma’s rules and knowing the audience. The CTH has guidelines for comments for this exact reason. However, those constraints need to be based on a set of inherent values. When it comes to information it is important to draw a distinction from speech.
There needs to be an open venue for all information. Unfortunately, when we begin to apply labels or categorization to information, there’s an opportunity for information to be manipulated – even weaponized. Saul Alinsky spent decades pondering the best techniques to weaponize information and speech. Alinsky’s intentions in the endeavor to change society by changing how language and information was used were not good. He devoted his completed rulebook book to Lucifer.
Be careful about anyone saying we need to label or categorize information in order to control or remove speech from the discussion.
You were not born with a requirement to believe everything you are told; rather, you were born with a God-given brain that allows you to process the information you receive and make independent decisions.
Unfortunately, the collectively aligned group of U.S. Govt, the Intelligence Community and now Big Tech, are saying they will put every roadblock they can muster in your way as you attempt to navigate through the misinformation they control.
With that in mind, I would finish with this. Be kind to those who cannot see through the misinformation, and do not invest too much time trying to convince them. Convincing is an endless quest, because it transfers the responsibility of discernment from them to you. They will become dependent on you and that my friends can be a heavy weight upon you.
Remember, “Whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.” ~ Max Ehrmann
“Some people are just fucking nuts”…
They are inadvertently making it very easy to “fact-check”; simply post it on faceplant or twitter; if it gets censored, “it must be true” lol.
If the “fact checkers” say it is false,…it must be true.
If no one in the msm is writing or talking about it, it must be true.
If THEY are saying it, it must be a lie. So simple, for us ‘simple minded rubes’.
When truth s told, fact checkers become redundant.
This proves the obvious. Everything they say is a lie.
Saying it so openly is crossing the Rubicon. But Fauci started it, lying about masks, no masks, quarantine, treatments, and, of course, the origin of Covid. He said about some of it that it “was for our own good.” Walinski? Collins? All liars along with hundreds of state and local health officials and scientists. Thank God for the few that tell the truth like Dr. Malone.
What is new is not the lying, which now has become 80% (maybe) but the increasingly short cycle of the lie. It can be refuted within days, forcing them to censor and deplatform.
I did not believe the Ukraine/Zelensky story from the beginning. Look who came out in support of Ukraine – the usual list of DS Cabal subjects including Hollywood. That right there is a giant red flag. Also, the disgusting videos of the Actor, Zelensky, shows the guy is scum.

Truth has no agenda, thank you Sundance, looking for truth you will find it here sometimes the truth hurts sometimes.
Disinformation?
That’s the global corporate media.

If the truth be known, probably all global corporate media is but one medium operating as the Hydra.

Unintentionally did this in communication log! It’s what triggered my realization of the functional idiot diplomas being issued in 80’s & 90’s.

“Often, I find myself struggling in the grey and complex. It is not unusual to spend days researching, digging, clarifying a situation, only to discover the path to finding the truth is in another direction entirely.” I spent over forty years becoming highly educated about how our health system works, starting with the legal and regulatory framework, then gaining anecdotally steadily growing insights into all the different people and organizations, their financial incentives, their rights and obligations, their contracts, their other motives and distinct cultural or tribal outlooks and prejudices. This included the processes by which new innovations worked their way into the standard of care. I thought I pretty much understood that part as well as any non-medically trained individual.
Until I read RFK, Jr.’s book, “The Real Anthony Fauci.” The corruption described there and orchestrated by Fauci, his partners in Pharma and Bill Gates, the academic medical centers, with acquiescence and shared corruption by Congress, WHO, regulators, is so much more vast and thorough than I had ever imagined.
It has opened a new path, for sure, but I hardly know how to approach it. Various task forces spring to mind – prosecutors with specially trained investigators, courts that will issue subpoenas, search warrants, covert surveillance. Perhaps a core team of trained forensic statisticians not financially obligated to the clinical trial industry who could pore over the clinical trial data and its analyses identifying what I now suspect are a vast number of times the data were “tweaked” in order to maximize profits, avoid disclosure of past despicable behavior, steer sick patients to the treatments most profitable for those with the most clout in the corruption process. Perhaps a core team of academic scientific investigators similarly not corrupted motivated to blow the whistle on their “distinguished colleagues” who have built their reputations for research as measured by research grant dollars by delivering what corrupting moneyed interests want to hear, rather than the scientific truth. A core team of investigators to look through how lobbyists corrupt our elected and appointed officials. Another, perhaps led by Lara Logan, to look through how our journalists have been corrupted.
Thank you, Sundance, for your site and its many insights from you, your team, and your many reader/posters.
Publish or perish.
Speaking of getting in someone’s head, there is one gentleman, our rightful President, who is better at it than anyone I’ve ever known. So good at it that even the crazies and bad government actors (most all of them) are constantly wondering what all his supporters are up to! That’s us, and it’s one reason they are making mistakes, overreacting, moving up their nefarious timetable. We’ll know when the time is ripe for action, and I doubt it will come from the ballot box.
I do believe you are quite correct!
US officials admit that their misinformation, disinformation, which is another way of saying, their lies. Is to get into Putin’s head. It appears that Putin is the one getting into our incompetent officials heads, instead.
Everything is disinfo.
Safe and effective. The employment rate. The GDP. Inflation rate. Reason for high gas prices. cause of food shortages.
The public is bombarded with absolute lies from all levels of our govt. Nothing is real.
Not one damn thing.
Agreed, sadly. With the exception of God Almighty and His Word.
The determination of “disinformation” and “misinformation” is 100% subjective according to US officials.
It isn’t too difficult to get into the heads of our officials. Most were educated by Bill Ayers 40 years ago.
I really am ready for CW2. This govt sucks and is broke corrupt and not working for the people. Ready to be led.
The people in charge now are dead-center in apostle Paul’s description of those who would really stand out in these days:
Romans 1:26-32 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
P.S. There is a very definite difference between “death” and destruction of the soul. Hopefully these creeps Paul describes will learn a thing or two during the Millennium and avoid the Final Destruction of Evil: The Lake of Fire. God our Father is not willing that anyone should perish. He gives us all more chances than we deserve to get with the program. In the final analysis, them that don’t never wanted to anyway. They love evil.
Since when is it OK for the “government” treat its citizens & organizations the very same as our mortal enemies by lying, creating FAKE news, rigging elections, abusing the IRS powers, etc. Both parties now talk as if we are complete stupid idiots because THEY are knowingly keeping political prisoners in Washington DC, violating all spirits and intents of our INJustice System. The worst of this abuse can be tied directly back to the fraudulent, high privilege of Obama and his flaunting violations of our laws and customs. They may think it is so clever to “cancel” Putin or we voters because their “story is better” has a real surprise in store. The days of Washington DC are counting down to a stunning collapse!
I would say it goes back to ALL the bankers, and to Satan. A lot of Satanic activity now from what I’ve heard.
You sound like you’re very aware that we are now where millions of others have suddenly found themselves: in a strange, & evil, new world.
It comes down, now, to them or us.
It’s been evil since Adam and Eve fell but certainly accelerating. “As in the days of Noah….” Not to mention a veil seems to be lifting from many peoples eyes to see behind the rosy glasses. Sadly there are so many whose rosy glasses are still on and they may never take them off to see the truth😢
It became legal to propagandize the citizenry with the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012.
To gubmint slugs… if they made it legal then it’s okay to do it.
The government creates the lie, and when you contradict the lie Bi Tech cancels you.
Simple.
Painful cycle

Thats why I read him.

‘You seriously believe the same media that lied to you about covid is now telling you the truth about Ukraine’
https://stateofthenation.co/?p=111780
The truest statement! The litmus test: if the Obama, Clinton’s, Pelosi and troop support something/someone, run away! Go the opposite direction! Hollywood included!!!!!! They are playing on the heartstrings of decent people who believe their propaganda and will drop their $$ in the pit to support Ukrain but are unaware they are being played😢
I keep telling my wife “somethings really fishy with this reporting on Ukraine. A lot of things (narratives) aren’t making sense.
we are in for hell.
looks Like a defence for the Carter Page thing might be disinfo to defeat Russia.
I view everything that the gubmint says thru the lens of “The Shooter.”
That’s when the depths of what they do, say & act upon became excruciatingly clear . I’ve never been able to unsee it.
i think that after a President is elected all heads of every federal entity resign, just like US attorneys do.
would have ended the FBI Comey coup
I woulder if all heads must be offed?
Government labor unions must be outlawed. All federal workers should be subject to termination with or without cause. Just replacing the top does not fix the problem. Those under them just continue to do what they want to do and don’t do what they personally disagree with without consequence.
All NATO actions going forward require a NAZI foundation for implementation…
… ALL of them…
Try to find a path forward for NATO that does not require NAZI implementation in order to succeed.
Apparently Zelenski addressed the Parliament of Greece recently. And he brought two Azov Nazis with him to address the assembly. When they were brought out, many members of Parliament were furious and walked out. But others stayed and even rose to cheer the Nazis at the end – a bit shocking for a country that was occupied by the Nazis for three years in WWII.
Did any mainstream newspapers or shows cover this? Not in Greece, or England, or the rest of Europe, apparently. And as far as I can tell, not in US either. Pretty disturbing.
It is discussed by The Duran here:
It’s an hour-long video, but the discussion of the speech in Greece in the beginning.
So basically the coup against the rights of individuals, i.e. freedom without government control, continues.
And that goes for ALL of the lying cheating talking heads in the press.
Most people at CTH have known not to take anything our IC or the WH has offered on the conflict at face value. It’s just been too convenient too scripted. The same players with same words and the same idiots telling us we are bad if we don’t buy what they’re saying.. Everything has felt “off” about this.
Love this ! I’ve been trying to explain my views on current events , the media , and propaganda with a friend at work . This touches so many points I’ve been discussing with him . Especially what I believe to be true . He asked me how do you know , I replied , I have a good BS detector . Thanks Sundance !
They know why we don’t believe a word they say, so they don’t let us say so.
Glad you brought this up Sundance, Thank you!
I’ve been looking at these terms closely for quite a while, ever since the terminology (misinformation, disinformation, malinformation, etc.) started to surface.
All those terms are in fact designed to twist the meaning of information. It only serves one purpose: to accuse and censor.
There is ONLY information – period. And Information comes in four, and only four forms. It is not in the form of any the ones above.
Information can only be True or False, and can be further modified by “probable or possible” (those are not of much help by the way – speculative). THAT’S IT.
False is a lot easier to prove than True. Scientifically this is the way to prove things. theories cam be proven true by falsification. That’s counterintuitive but it is how it works. See here:
https://psichologyanswers.com/library/lecture/read/122247-what-is-karl-poppers-falsification-theory#1
Like you wrote so well, all the current terms are gray and therefore quite meaningless in the pursuit of truthfulness or falseness. They have only one design – to accuse and censor conversations. Those terms though are unacceptable in any kind of formal logical arguments.
Thanks again for opening this for discussion.
Oh, the arrogance of the US! The US has no business in being involved in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
We also have no business funding bio labs in Ukraine or elsewhere.
“Our story sucks.”

Excellent article, Sundance! I was blessed to have been raised by a very smart man who taught me to question everything and I do exactly that.
It is not so easy to see manipulation of “truth” but this Ukrainian mess is not too difficult. There have been many pieces of information popping up in various places – enough that the narrative engineers are not doing such a good job. Enough said.
Thank you for the work you do.
“Be kind to those who cannot see through the misinformation, and do not invest too much time trying to convince them.”
At somepoint, unfortunately, this becomes an untenable and impossible advice, because it could very well be the people such as you describe who WILL become either a direct or indirect threat to one’s FREEDOM, safety, security and prosperity as guided the foundational bedrock of the U.S.A.
It is almost inevitable.

Excellent outline of how the Ukraine war started.

Just curious what the strategic purpose is of revealing this information. Is it just to brag about how clever they are?
I have mulled that thought for a while now. I can’t figure the strategic part of why they say it. But on the other hand their arrogance convinces me that they brag like this cause they think we’re all stupid!
Now with that said, imagine the shocked look on their faces when we take them down and they realize that we’re not as dumb as they thought. Stupid people don’t know they’re stupid.
The longer the socialist Nazis in DC are allowed to play this shell game with us, the less the chance we’ll ever be rid of the scumbags.
They have opened the eyes of some of us to Putin as being concerned with Russia & its national welfare.
And, opened more eyes to themselves, the lying bastards in DC, who will subject all of us to a Third World War to get control of the world.
Too stupid to open their own eyes & see they won’t survive that move, either.
I don’t believe anything the government tells me.

Thank you Sundance and the rest of you mostly stable geniuses here at the Treehouse for the weapons grade Enlightenment. With only 5 years off the booze(near terminal alcoholic) I have not yet developed the coping skills to digest so many Painful Truths all at once. I will end up on the wrong end of a case of Tanqueray Ten if I don’t disconnect. Please forgive me for my constant abuses of Grandma’s Rules. God Bless.
God bless you CR
CR. Have 27 years of understanding that I have a GOD and it’s not me. I also have to disengage from the frustration and disgust of what is going on in our country today. Remember, a drink will not change a thing and remember what is really important in your life. Go to a meeting,share and if you need to talk , let me know and will give u my pn or gmail address.

What idiots! If they are going to target anyone who uses disinformation, they would have to start with themselves.

I’ll one up you folks. Everything they SAID for the last 60+ years is a lie. Everything they will say until they are completely dismantled will be a lie. This includes Sean Hannity
Note the date…Propaganda law repealed.
JULY 14, 2013, 7:06 PM
“For decades, a so-called anti-propaganda law prevented the U.S. government’s mammoth broadcasting arm from delivering programming to American audiences. But on July 2, that came silently to an end with the implementation of a new reform passed in January. The result: an unleashing of thousands of hours per week of government-funded radio and TV programs for domestic U.S. consumption in a reform initially criticized as a green light for U.S. domestic propaganda efforts.”

Hope this is relevant to this discussion because of this speaker addresses (among other things) the propaganda campaign, but from a Russia perspective. I found him through a commenter on the Saker website. He is Andrei Martyanov, former USSR naval officer and expert on Russian military and naval issues. He speaks excellent English, but for me he is difficult to understand (Bad hearing).

As for the Russian chemical weapons, I knew a guy who’s wife was wrongfully certain he was cheating although he was not. After 8 months of non stop hell over things he was not doing he decided that since he was getting punished for it he may as well do what he was paying for. He did, another 6 months later he divorced then married the new girl. Years later now he has 3 children and is as happy as I have ever known him to be.
“CTH was founded upon the belief that truth has no agenda, nor does it care about you, your feelings, or your opinion of it.”
And the truth has no temperature either…
RIDDLE ME THIS….the West media now cares about whites (Ukies) being killed or maimed. Oh and it gets better not just white but Slavs 5k miles away. But where it really gets exciting is to understand the media is actually rooting for actual Nazi groups.
ROFLMAO …….for Ukraine sympathizers I give you this. This is what you must understand. Our media is actively shilling for White Nazis. Tells you all you need to know. Please stop listening to any of them (left or right). Talk radio is dead except for perhaps Beck. Run away from all of it and follow sites like this for the truth.
So the good news is that we can rely on Google/Twitter et al and our benevolent governmental overlords to protect us from evil lies.
Of course in practice lying in service of a ‘greater good’ is generally considered acceptable and, as we know, what is good for the PTB is good for the whole world! /s
