Are You Getting Your News from the CIA? - Fact Checked Meme

Dozens of "Ex" CIA, intelligence agency employees, and federal law enforcement make up the couple of hundred people that get to talk "politics" and current events on the "news"

In the book: “Government” - The Biggest Scam in History… Exposed! I make the case that inter-generational organized crime runs the “government”, media and academia and the strongest weapon in the US arsenal is “control-of-perception” I.E. the ability to essentially program human beings like a computer, to an extent, by controlling the information they receive about the world. This control of information starts with the mandatory “government” school (or “accredited” private school) where students are indoctrinated with the pseudo-religion of Statism - the belief in the legitimacy, necessity and desirability of having a “government” in the first place even though there is no iron-clad law of the universe that says that anyone needs “government” (Slavery). The “Government” indoctrinates this belief system in a hidden curriculum in the mandatory schools, affiliated scouting programs, explorer programs, and jROTC using unethically manipulative techniques.

Control of Mass Media = Control-of-Perception

After the mandatory school, control of the media including search, video distribution, social media, comments on websites, meet-up visibility, reviews, and other algorithmically controllable methods of steering mass consciousness is the key to controlling perception. The main identifiable vehicles for creating/managing/controlling the content of MainStreamMedia are Bilderberg Group, Trilateral Commission and Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) control of the Media¹ and the CIA’s control of key journalists that was made public during the Church Committee hearings in 1975 where it was disclosed that the CIA had hundreds of journalists on the payroll. A quote from the commission:

"The CIA currently maintains a network of several hundred foreign individuals around the world who provide intelligence for the CIA and at times attempt to influence opinion through the use of covert propaganda. These individuals provide the CIA with direct access to a large number of newspapers and periodicals, scores of press services and news agencies, radio and television stations, commercial book publishers, and other foreign media outlets.”

The CIA program to control the media came to be known popularly as Operation Mockingbird and by the 1950s “some 3000 salaried and contract CIA employees were eventually engaged in propaganda efforts.”²

Fast Forward to Today

By my estimate and excluding the political puppets, there are less than 200 people that get to talk about politics and current events on the major news networks. A significant percentage of them are “ex” employees of the CIA, other intelligence agencies, or federal law enforcement in what appears to be a revolving door where certain former “public servants” are given multi-million dollar salaries in what looks to be the “for-profit” side of the same business. In this new fact-checked meme from the upcoming 5th Edition of “Government” - The Biggest Scam in History… Exposed! we break down the intelligence agency and federal law enforcement backgrounds of almost 2 dozens members of the “media” in what appears like a large-scale control-of-perception campaign that includes controlling who gets to talk on the dominant monopoly “news” platforms.

It Gets Worse… The CIA Appears to Be Installing Political Puppets as Well… Just Like They do in Foreign Countries…

A statistically significant and anomalous percentage of Democrat candidates in 2018 and 2020 elections have had backgrounds in the CIA, intelligence agencies, federal law enforcement or the military in addition to the “imperial conditioning” of mandatory “government” schools, cub scouts, boy scouts, JROTC, and military obedience training.

The World Socialist Web Site (WSWS) did an extensive investigation into a statistically significant and anomalous percentage of candidates for US House of representatives and the Senate having backgrounds from the CIA, other intelligence agencies, federal law enforcement, and the US military. The article entitled: CIA Democrats in the 2020 Election summarizes the issue thusly:

“In the course of the 2018 elections, a large group of former military-intelligence operatives entered capitalist politics as candidates seeking the Democratic Party nomination in 50 congressional seats—nearly half the seats where the Democrats were targeting Republican incumbents or open seats created by Republican retirements.

Some 30 of these candidates won primary contests and became the Democratic candidates in the November 2018 election, and 11 of them won the general election, more than one-quarter of the 40 previously Republican-held seats captured by the Democrats as they took control of the House of Representatives.

In 2020, the intervention of the CIA Democrats continues on what is arguably an equally significant scale: besides the reelection campaigns of the 11 representatives who won seats in the House in 2018, half a dozen of those who lost 2018 races are running again in 2020. Some of these are running for House seats again, while others have been promoted by the Democratic Party leadership and are running for the US Senate. And an entire new crop of military-intelligence operatives is being brought forward, some running for Republican seats targeted by the Democratic leadership as possible takeovers, others in seats not currently considered competitive.

…the 11 CIA Democrats must be considered overwhelming favorites to retain their seats. They have raised a combined total of $42 million. Their 11 Republican opponents have raised a combined total of $10 million…”³

But Wait There is More… The CIA is controlling the flow of information algorithmically on the DARPA Internet as well with CIA Google and CIA Facebook

So while the meme makes the case that the CIA is controlling perception by controlling who gets to talk about and comment on “politics” and “current events” there is evidence that the CIA is controlling information algorithmically on the Internet as well. In our 32GB Flash drive of freedom: The Liberator - We feature a number of articles making the case that much of “Big Tech” are front companies for the military industrial complex that funded much of Silicon Valley’s development to begin with. We believe there may be as many as 3-4 dozen+ intelligence and Dod “front companies” funded with the unlimited “government” and bankster fractional reserve money to dominate and monopolize their individual niche of the information food chain.

Here are some articles and evidence from: The Liberator

How the CIA Made Google by Nafeez Ahmed - Details the specific CIA-DoD programs (The Highland Forum, CIA-backed venture capital firm In-Q-Tel, others) that provided early funding to Google.

Research Proves Google Manipulates Millions to Favor Clinton - distinguished research psychologist Robert Epstein explains his 2016 study and reviews evidence that Google's search suggestions were biased in favor of Hillary Clinton. He estimated that biased search suggestions might have shifted as many as 3 million votes during that election.

Audit suggests Google favors a small number of major outlet By Nicholas Diakopoulos - 2019 study showing that Google News promotes a small cartel of other “news” organizations. Just 20 news sources account for more than half of article impressions. The top 20 percent of sources (136 of 678) accounted for 86 percent of article impressions. And the top three accounted for 23 percent: CNN, The New York Times, and The Washington Post.

How Google Interferes With Its Search Algorithms and Changes Your Results - The Wall Street Journal – Nov 18th 2019 by Kirsten Grind, Sam Schechner, Robert McMillan and John West -

Some findings:

• Google made algorithmic changes to its search results that favor big businesses over smaller ones, and in at least one case made changes on behalf of a major advertiser, eBay Inc., contrary to its public position that it never takes that type of action. The company also boosts some major websites, such as Amazon.com Inc. and Facebook Inc., according to people familiar with the matter.

• Google engineers regularly make behind-the-scenes adjustments to other information the company is increasingly layering on top of its basic search results. These features include auto-complete suggestions, boxes called “knowledge panels” and “featured snippets,” and news results, which aren’t subject to the same company policies limiting what engineers can remove or change.

• Despite publicly denying doing so, Google keeps blacklists to remove certain sites or prevent others from surfacing in certain types of results. These moves are separate from those that block sites as required by U.S. or foreign law, such as those featuring child abuse or with copyright infringement, and from changes designed to demote spam sites, which attempt to game the system to appear higher in results.

• In auto-complete, the feature that predicts search terms as the user types a query, Google’s engineers have created algorithms and blacklists to weed out more-incendiary suggestions for controversial subjects, such as abortion or immigration, in effect filtering out inflammatory results on high-profile topics.
