The multinationals and corporate media conglomerates all have a vested stake in the outcome of the 2024 election. The parent corporations are all aligned with the Wall Street globalist agenda. As a result, all of the broadcast and cable outlets have a singularity of focus to support the elimination of President Trump.
Yes, when you drill corporatism down to its least common denominator, it’s the money motive – every single time.
Fox News is hosting the GOP first-loser debate, and Fox News is worried about their scripted theatrics being destroyed by the new media apparatus that now dominates the discussion. The old guard are trying to flex, trying to maintain control, but the insurgent rebellion is much stronger. The corporate media are squeezing Jello tightly in a closed fist…
.
I’ve got two words for the Fox News Corporation, and they ain’t Merry Christmas!
Rebellion members need to double down hard and destroy these clowns.
Former Fox News pundit and current podcaster Dan Bongino has a suggestion for the team around Donald Trump that is rather remarkable.
According to media reports and seemingly affirmed the Truth Social account of President Trump, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis is demanding a $200,000 bond for President Trump due to his being a flight risk. Bongino is suggesting President Trump call their bluff tomorrow and not post the bond. Here’s his reasoning. WATCH:

Bongino is suggesting that President Trump position himself as a genuine political prisoner and then let the Secret Service run the jail.
Obviously, we take all reports from Russian media through the prism of Suspicious Cat. Complicating matters, we take any/all reports from Western Media through the folded and mirrored prism of multiple Suspicious Cats. So don’t look for CTH to provide definitive analysis on this multi-geopolitical storyline; instead, look for me to share a series of possibilities that might not be discussed elsewhere.
As long-time readers know, I have a strong and reliable network in Peter (that’s the abbreviated name used in familiar Russian discussion with those who live in the Saint Petersburg region of Russia). I have previously discussed my opinion of the western media reporting on Yevgeny Prigozhin {Go Deep}, I will not repeat.
Dubya, Putin and Yevgeny Prigozhin the caterer.
Today, Russian media are stating that Prigozhin was killed in a plane crash after a series of meetings in Moscow, upon a return flight to Peter. Perhaps, or perhaps not. Given the nature of a very specific background in/around the issue(s) of Wagner and Prigozhin, and with both the Russian and USA geopolitical overlays as context, here are some possible considerations:
♦ Prigozhin completed his meetings in Moscow and was heading home to Peter when an unfortunate accident led to his plane crashing.
♦ Prigozhin completed his meetings in Moscow and was heading home to Peter when the Russian military leaders decided to kill him.
♦ Prigozhin completed his meetings in Moscow and was detained by Putin allies, then the return flight destroyed to disappear him.
♦ Prigozhin completed his meetings in Moscow and was returning to Peter when a successful retaliatory CIA operation killed him.
♦ Prigozhin completed his meetings in Moscow and organizing a defensive Wagner operation against NATO under the auspices of his death.
♦ Prigozhin completed his meetings in Moscow and is now very much alive and retired with no one looking for him.
♦ Prigozhin was never in Moscow and is very much alive and retired with no one looking for him. √
By now we are all too familiar with the schemes and plots of the corporate media as they participate in the political illusion of choice game. However, for Rupert Murdoch and Fox News debate moderator Martha MacCallum, this catch shreds the remaining little credibility they carried.
Fox News is hosting the GOP debate in Wisconsin. During this build up segment, Martha MacCallum introduces the “random Republican voters” in Wisconsin who will watch the debate. Except, well… there’s a little problem. MacCallum introduces Chris Lawrence as a “Wisconsin GOP voter” who seemingly supports Ron DeSantis. However, MacCallum fails to mention that Chris Lawrence actually works for the Koch Network, who have recently pledged to spend $70 million to defeat President Trump.
Not only has Chris Lawrence worked for the Koch Network for the past 9 years, he is also the Senior Field Director for the Koch group Americans for Prosperity. In essence, Lawrence is a political operative planted in the group by Fox News to support Ron DeSantis and make it appear like he is an innocuous voter. Fox News and Martha MacCallum should be embarrassed, but they won’t be. WATCH (prompted):
.
Don’t forget, Ron DeSantis supporters Eric Erickson and Guy Benson sit on the Koch Network AfP Advisory Board (see here).
It’s all one big game of illusion, and Fox News is once again a big part of the Republican fraud. Proving yet again, that everything in the Ron DeSantis orbit is astroturf, phony, manufactured and made up.
Constitutional lawyer Dr. John Eastman Esq is one of the nineteen co-defendants in the malicious lawsuit brought by Fulton County prosecutor Fani Willis. Eastman appeared in Atlanta, Ga, today to turn himself in and assert his innocence.
Dr. Eastman gave direct, deliberate and non-pretending remarks to the assembled press pool at the courthouse, and when asked if he still believes the 2020 election was stolen, Dr. Eastman replied, “absolutely, no question, no question in my mind.” Dr. Eastman is looking forward to presenting evidence that will exonerate all the defendants in the case. WATCH:
How two of these candidates were able to qualify just boggles the mind. Then again, we have to reset that old brain muscle memory and remind ourselves this is all grand theatre created to give the illusion of something entirely different.
I mean, how do Doug Burgum and Asa Hutchinson have enough support to appear on a GOP debate stage, unless the script writers are working the backroom angles to get them a podium spot?
With President Trump refusing to walk into the trap, according to the RNC statement, the eight people who qualify for the Fox News first loser debate are: (1) Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, (2) businessperson Vivek Ramaswamy, (3) former Vice President Mike Pence, (4) former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley, (5) Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.), (6) former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, (7) North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and (8) former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson.
I’m not sure how many people are planning to tune into the irrelevant debate; let me know if you want an open thread with livestream in the comment section.
Meanwhile, in a national poll released today, President Trump continues to extend his insurmountable lead as the support of the American electorate keeps growing.
Inside the FiveThirtyEight (Premise Poll) of registered voters: President Trump leads with 60% of the vote, the next closest candidate is Ron DeSantis with 16%, followed by Ramaswamy at 6%, Pence at 4%, Tim Scott at 3%, Nikki Haley at 3% and Chris Christie at 1%.
Tucker Carlson sits down for a sobering discussion with Col Douglas Macgregor about the war in Ukraine and the current status of the conflict. {Direct Rumble Link}
As Carlson outlines the looming possibility that NATO is going to have to enter the war because the Ukraine military is slowing being degraded, Macgregor outlines the technical and strategic issues the U.S/NATO forces would have with a war in eastern Europe.
After outlining the strategic flaws and problems the U.S. would face in a direct confrontation with Russia, the discussion then shifts to ask the obvious question: What comes now? What are the goals and objectives for Russia, now? WATCH:
The Florida Governor is in a pickle and this poll was taken before Ron DeSantis called the Trump supporters “listless vessels.” According to the latest GOP polling from New Hampshire [Data Here] the insufferable DeSantis has dropped to fourth place behind President Trump, Chris Christie, and Vivek Ramaswamy.
Fox News and the RNC are furious that President Trump will not attend the first-loser debate in Wisconsin tomorrow.
On behalf of Rupert Murdoch and the Sea Island crew, Brett Baier must hold deep angst that he will not be able to support the Special Counsel Jack Smith effort by peppering Trump with legal questions about the ongoing cases. Baier was almost certainly going to use the opportunity with Mike Pence on the stage to grill Trump about J6 and documents at Mar-a-Lago. Now the DOJ will have to look for another approach.
I’m not always right. Sometimes events change and intersections take place on the path toward the predicted outcome. However, when ancillary events -mostly driven by human intervention in an effort to avoid what’s coming- do not cross the directional path, we arrive at the predicted destination.
At the end of May CTH shared the motive behind a series of events we should see unfold on the Twitter platform. By the time we arrived in June, there was enough actual data to solidify a timeline {GO DEEP}. Shortly after, the New York Times published leaked revenue side documents allowing us to calculate an accurate burn rate {Go Deep} for the situation around Elon Musk. Through this accurate financial prism, everything that Elon Musk has done lines up in sequence {Go Deep}.
Cliff Notes Version: Musk has a deficit burn rate of around $250 to $300 million per month. Musk runs out of working capital in Sept/Oct, depending on how quickly Yaccarino was/is able to enhance revenue.
Regardless of revenue, and because she just can’t generate it fast enough, approximately, seven weeks from now Musk has to secure another roughly $5 billion, to give himself enough breathing room to continue operations.
Musk has lost the $30 billion he put in. The current estimates are that Twitter is now worth between $12 to $15 billion. There is debt of $12.5 billion from the initial purchase structure still in place. The asset is worth its debt, not much more.
With a current debt service of $100+ million per month, adding another $50 million/month ($5 billion loan) is tenuous at best. And that’s IF he can secure that investment loan. Musk has admitted he is personally limited in leverage using Tesla. He is approaching an inflexion point. 1 million subscribers paying $8/month is pittance ($8 million).
Recently X-Corp: (1) Linda Yaccarino introduced the novel concept of speech that was “lawful but awful” and must be suppressed. (2) Their desire to remove the block function. (3) Restrictions on visibility, “freedom of speech, not freedom of reach.” (4) and hired back a platform censorship team. All of these measures are designed to make “safe spaces” for advertisers to return. In essence, they are all revenue decisions.
People inside tech, and even people inside the X-Corp organization, who initially did not think my analysis was accurate, are now starting to admit it is the most likely scenario.
This arc of directional travel is not going to change, especially with Musk needing to go back into the capital markets for more working cash. Everything we are seeing is a result of this financial dynamic and the desperation is starting to show.
Feeling empowered after his boost from Georgia Republican Governor Brian Kemp, a man of notoriously intemperate disposition, presidential candidate Ron DeSantis begins the process to align himself with the neocon establishment and labeling Donald Trump supporters as “listless vessels” devoid of principle, who simply “follow whatever comes down the pike from Truth Social every morning.”
Appearing with a young millennial wearing a beaver tail on his head, namely Will Witt from the Florida Standard, Ron DeSantis outlines his opinion that the MAGA movement is only driven by the support of President Donald Trump, a person who has exhausted his usefulness in awakening the electorate. As a result, the high-minded superior intellects of the Republican Party now need to step in, reestablish the core values of the conservative movement, and put the squirming MAGA children in their play pens.
You can watch the entire interview below; I’m just prompting it to the part that best highlights the sanctimonious arrogance of a dim-witted candidate who really doesn’t carry his own policies, only those of the managers and branding consultants that create his talking points. WATCH:
What the insufferable DeSantis and his branding/image consultants pretend not to know, is that President Trump’s America First policies are the driving force behind the MAGA movement. Those policies consist of three main attributes that are non-existent in any other candidate:
Immigration. The construct of a southern border wall, denial of illegal entry and a return to immigration border controls that block illegal aliens.
Economics. The implementation of MAGAnomics that puts incentives behind Made In America. Baseline tariffs on all imports. The removal of the 70-year-old one-way Marshal plan for tariffs on USA products into the EU. Reciprocal tariffs against all nations who participate in bilateral Free Trade Agreements, and a return to America first manufacturing independence.
Foreign Policy. The withdrawal of USA interventionist foreign policy. The respect of national borders and national policies that are the outcome of the independent will of people within sovereign nations. The primary responsibility of NATO funding, support and activity, to the member states of the European Union. The use of USA economic strength as a national security weapon.
Those three pillars form the baseline of the America First policy that President Trump represents. No other candidate comes even close to the policies therein. President Trump represents the vessel we are using to force the professional political class to accept these policy priorities. MAGA is a set of policies uniquely attributed to President Trump, because only Trump willingly represents those policies.
The GOPe know this; so too does Ron DeSantis and his handlers. Every candidate in the Republican field understands this set of policies, and they have been paid by the multinational donors to pretend they do not know. Their collective GOPe mission is to destroy the policy platform; therefore, they must attack the core of the Trump supporters by pretending not to know.
