Geopolitics & Empire

Daniel McAdams returns to discuss the Ukraine crisis. Media coverage of the situation is absolutely abysmal and cartoonish, taking the role of stenographers for the intelligence community. The current crisis was precipitated by U.S. interventionism in the form of the 2014 Orange color revolution. Russia has a right to be concerned about existential issues and having Ukraine in NATO would objectively raise a serious concern for Moscow, especially in light of an openly hostile West. Blinken did his best Colin Powell presentation at the UN (e.g. Iraq WMDs) and there is a huge danger a false flag could lead to hostilities. This could be the beginning of the end for NATO. We're seeing the tail end of the U.S. Empire. *Support Geopolitics & Empire: Donate https://geopoliticsandempire.com/donations Consult https://geopoliticsandempire.com/consultation Become a Member https://geopoliticsandempire.com/become-member Become a Sponsor https://geopoliticsandempire.com/sponsors **Visit Our Sponsors Nomos Time Bank https://www.nomos.net Borderless Health Insurance http://www.borderlesshealthinsurance.com Websites Ron Paul Institute http://ronpaulinstitute.org Ron Paul Liberty Report https://www.youtube.com/RonPaulLibertyReport Ron Paul Liberty Report Odysee https://odysee.com/@RonPaul:d Ron Paul Institute Twitter https://twitter.com/RonPaulInstitut Ron Paul Twitter https://twitter.com/RonPaul Ron Paul Facebook https://www.facebook.com/ronpaul About Daniel McAdams Daniel served as the foreign affairs, civil liberties, and defense policy advisor to U.S. Congressman Ron Paul, MD (R-Texas) from 2001 until Dr. Paul’s retirement at the end of 2012.

Michael Rectenwald returns to discuss the ESG Index or "woke capitalism" as a selection mechanism or demarcation device to delineate which businesses are onboard with The Great Reset and punish those who are not compliant. It is effectively a Social Credit System for companies, feeding investments toward the compliant while starving dissident firms, competition, and industries. This sets up the possibility for doing to companies what is being done to individuals in Canada right now, de-banking them and freezing their assets, and is totalitarian in nature. This global government combines the worst of both systems (capitalism and communism). We discuss the WEF Young Global Leaders program, the threat posed by the people who don't see COVID1984 for what it is, resistance, and parallel structures. *Support Geopolitics & Empire: Donate https://geopoliticsandempire.com/donations Consult https://geopoliticsandempire.com/consultation Become a Member https://geopoliticsandempire.com/become-member Become a Sponsor https://geopoliticsandempire.com/sponsors **Visit Our Sponsors Nomos Time Bank https://www.nomos.net Borderless Health Insurance http://www.borderlesshealthinsurance.com Show Notes Woke Capitalism Is a Monopoly Game https://mises.org/wire/woke-capitalism-monopoly-game Websites Michael Rectenwald https://www.michaelrectenwald.com Books https://www.michaelrectenwald.com/books Twitter https://www.twitter.com/TheAntiPCProf About Michael Rectenwald Dr. Michael Rectenwald is the author of eleven books, including Thought Criminal (2020); Beyond Woke (May 2020); Google Archipelago: The Digital Gulag and the Simulation of Freedom (2019); Springtime for Snowflakes: “Social Justice” and Its Postmodern Parentage (an academic’s memoir, 2018); Nineteenth-Century British Secularism: Science, Religion and Literature (2016); Academic Writing, Real World Topics (2015, Concise Edition 2016); Global Secularisms in a Post-Secular Age (2015); Breach (Collected Poems, 2013); The Thief and Other Stories (2013); and The Eros of the Baby-Boom Eras (1991).

Tessa Lena discusses her foray into writing about The Great Reset via her popular Substack which is also featured on prominent websites such as Mercola.com. She never imagined the dystopian future would come so soon. In an attempt to explain what's going on today, she examines the Great Resets of the past, from Russian serfdom, to the Russian Revolution (Lenin's "Great Reset"), and growing up during the collapse of the Soviet Union. She talks about "disease blackmail" and how she's skeptical on putting much weight on "isms", but the ideology of Davos communism is what the Bolsheviks were using. She talks about rock stars going "Covid Central," what the Algorithm Ghetto might look like, and how we all have an inner technocrat. Tessa doesn't think Davos will get what it wants because it's just too crazy. *Support Geopolitics & Empire: Donate https://geopoliticsandempire.com/donations Consult https://geopoliticsandempire.com/consultation Become a Member https://geopoliticsandempire.com/become-member Become a Sponsor https://geopoliticsandempire.com/sponsors **Visit Our Sponsors Nomos Time Bank https://www.nomos.net Borderless Health Insurance http://www.borderlesshealthinsurance.com Show Notes We have to Talk about Nazism.

She is a classically trained pianist and singer, born and raised in Moscow. As a teenager, Tessa had the honor of performing her own composition at the Moscow Conservatory, and wanted to be a geneticist. As her interests expanded to Tibetan music and language, she headed to Lhasa with a backpack to do a field study in linguistics and enthomusicology. After being attacked by a sex trafficker in Southern China and successfully fighting him off, Tessa settled in Chicago. In Chicago, she started a band working with her hero Ian McDonald of King Crimson and Foreigner, and drummer Alan Lake, who has played and recorded with Madonna, Brian Ferry, Julian Lennon, Ministry, Brian Wilson and Sam Moore from Sam And Dave. After a few years in Chicago, Tessa moved to New York and started a new band, Tessa Makes Love, along with occasional collaborations by Ian McDonald. In 2013, her music video “Spente Le Stelle” received over a million very useful views on YouTube although the jury is still out on how many people realized that the video was a satire. Alas, the world keeps spinning, and it is still imperfect! In 2016, Tessa started Coalition for Artistic Dignity and organized a conference in Brooklyn dedicated to artistic dignity, social power and corporate responsibility. In early 2017, she released an album titled ‘Tessa Fights Robots,’ you can listen and buy it here. Since the English language only has so many words, this blog is also called ‘Tessa Fights Robots.’ Both the album and the blog are about being human in the world of technology, big data, and machine-like people.​ *Podcast intro music is from the song "The Queens Jig" by "Musicke & Mirth" from their album "Music for Two Lyra Viols": http://musicke-mirth.de/en/recordings.html (available on iTunes or Amazon)

James Corbett discusses where his head is at after all these years of doing what he's been doing and what's most pressing on his mind at the moment. He agrees that the COVID1984 biosecurity state is one of the central problems facing humanity today. The Digital ID system is being implemented in the very near-term and will then be forwarded through social credit scores and CBDCs. James warns against hopium and that although we've won some battles, we are not winning the war. He discusses how he views the elite global power structure and their visions of the future such as eugenics, transhumanism, and technocracy. He gives his thoughts on the prospects of future war, how to think about deep politics, as well as solutions. *Support Geopolitics & Empire: Donate https://geopoliticsandempire.com/donations Consult https://geopoliticsandempire.com/consultation Become a Member https://geopoliticsandempire.com/become-member Become a Sponsor https://geopoliticsandempire.com/sponsors **Visit Our Sponsors Nomos Time Bank https://www.nomos.net Borderless Health Insurance http://www.borderlesshealthinsurance.com Websites Corbett Report https://www.corbettreport.com About James Corbett The Corbett Report is edited, webmastered, written, produced and hosted by James Corbett.

Ron Unz provides his analysis on the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic. He discusses the possibility of it being deliberate biowarfare by the United States against China and Iran, given it appeared at the peak of America's global confrontation with China. As a moderately lethal but highly contagious pathogen, it was designed to be an "anti-economy" bioweapon, and the national security state apparatus which carried out the attack likely believed there would be minimal blowback. *Support Geopolitics & Empire: Donate https://geopoliticsandempire.com/donations Consult https://geopoliticsandempire.com/consultation Become a Member https://geopoliticsandempire.com/become-member Become a Sponsor https://geopoliticsandempire.com/sponsors Show Notes Major Covid/Biowarfare Articles https://www.unz.com/page/covid-biowarfare-articles American Pravda: Anne Frank, Sirhan Sirhan, and AIDS https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-anne-frank-sirhan-sirhan-and-aids Covid Deaths and Vaxxing Deaths https://www.unz.com/runz/covid-deaths-and-vaxxing-deaths Covid-19 False Flag? w/Ron Unz, Kevin Barrett, Barry Kissin, Meryl Nass, Thomas Willcuts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mFFcKo-gLY Websites The Unz Review https://www.unz.com Twitter https://twitter.com/UnzReview About Ron Unz A theoretical physicist by training, Mr. Unz serves as founder and chairman of UNZ.org, a content-archiving website providing free access to many hundreds of thousands of articles from prominent periodicals of the last hundred and fifty years. He also served as publisher of The American Conservative, a small opinion magazine, from 2006 to 2013 and had previously served as chairman of Wall Street Analytics, Inc., a financial services software company which he founded in New York City in 1987. He holds undergraduate and graduate degrees from Harvard University, Cambridge University, and Stanford University, and is a past first-place winner in the Intel/Westinghouse Science Talent Search. He was born in Los Angeles in 1961. He has long been deeply interested in public policy issues, and his writings on issues of immigration, race, ethnicity, and social policy have appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Commentary, The Nation, and numerous other publications. In 1994, he launched a surprise Republican primary challenge to incumbent Gov. Pete Wilson of California, running on a conservative, pro-immigrant platform against the prevailing political sentiment, and received 34% of the vote. Later that year, he campaigned as a leading opponent of Prop. 187, the anti-immigration initiative, and was a top featured speaker at a 70,000 person pro-immigrant march in Los Angeles, the largest political rally in California history to that date. In 1997, Mr. Unz began his “English for the Children” initiative campaign to dismantle bilingual education in California. He drafted Prop. 227 and led the campaign to qualify and pass the measure, culminating in a landslide 61% victory in June 1998, effectively eliminating over one-third of America’s bilingual programs. Within less than three years of the new English immersion curriculum, the mean percentile test scores of over a million immigrant students in California rose by an average of 70%. He later organized and led similar initiative campaigns in other states, winning with 63% in the 2000 Arizona vote and a remarkable 68% in the 2002 Massachusetts vote without spending a single dollar on advertising. After spending most of the 2000s focused on software projects, he has recently become much more active in his public policy writings, most of which have appeared in his own magazine. *Podcast intro music is from the song "The Queens Jig" by "Musicke & Mirth" from their album "Music for Two Lyra Viols": http://musicke-mirth.de/en/recordings.html (available on iTunes or Amazon)

Jeff Nyquist discusses the work of KGB defectors such as Anatoly Golitsyn and Yuri Bezmenov who warned that the Communists in the East (e.g. Russia and China) were playing a strategic long-game against the West, where they would feign collapse, and ultimately come back to destroy Europe and the United States. The 1920s Soviet counter-intelligence Operation Trust was an early example of this. The Sino-Soviet split had been faked. The Soviets had infiltrated the major opposing intelligence services and fed them false information. 94% of Golitsyn's predictions came true, including his forecast that China and Russia would emerge stronger than the West and change the military balance. He views the pandemic as a biological attack on the West, which is destroying the economy. Golitsyn ultimately believed that there would be convergence between the East and West into one global and universal Marxist-type system. In this new world, China would take control of the United States, which includes extermination of the native population. He believes the Russian takeover of Ukraine has been long planned and that what happened in Kazakhstan was Russia securing their rear in advance of their advance West. The U.S. and NATO don't have the capacity to defend Ukraine, the West is weak and must avoid war. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Websites J.R.

Professor Kees van der Pijl discusses his new book which explains how the virus crisis is a fraud and cover for political seizure of power. The medical emergency is just a pretext for digital identity passport systems. He discusses the players behind this ruling oligarchy whose concentration is unprecedented in history. Elites are using a strategy of tension to subjugate an otherwise unruly global populace which has been on the verge of 1848-style revolution. The medical phase of the coup can turn toward war (e.g. Russia) as another means of consolidating rule. The ruling class believes they have a small window of time to cement their power on the heels of the historic AI revolution. He explains the mechanisms by which the oligarchy is able to impose worldwide regulatory processes on entire continents and how China is cooperating in this 'ultra-imperialism' with the West. He's optimistic that the political project that is Covid can't go on for much longer, will fall apart, and that they do not yet possess the technology required to roll out a total digital control system. A core group of society is also increasingly rejecting their insane vision of the future. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Websites States of Emergency (BOOK) https://www.claritypress.com/product/states-of-emergency-keeping-the-global-population-in-check Flight MH17, Ukraine and the New Cold War (BOOK) https://manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526131096 Twitter https://twitter.com/KeesvdPijl1 About Kees Van Der Pijl Kees van der Pijl (1947) taught at the University of Amsterdam and was professor at the University of Sussex, UK, from 2000.

Dr. Paul Craig Roberts discusses US-Russia tensions and corona tyranny. He doesn't see how events in Kazakhstan could've been anything else but an attempted color revolution. While prior U.S. administrations in the 20th century worked to defuse tensions with Russia, Washington today is removing safeguards, not taking security talks seriously, and is expanding NATO and military installations. Russians feel they are threatened and are taking actions to ensure their security. These developments are extremely discouraging. At the start of the pandemic, he had no reason to question the CDC and NIH. However, over time he began to see holes in the narrative. He fears many people will be injured as a result of mass experimental vaccination and we may see social collapse. He believes there must be some sort of conspiracy and can't fathom the level of global coordination going on. The lockdowns have created inflation which has created serious problems for the U.S. dollar. We don't know what else they may release. There's a tremendous amount of evil at play. If things don't clear up this year, it may very well be the end of the world. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin https://guadalajarageopolitics.com/donate Websites http://www.paulcraigroberts.org About Paul Craig Roberts Paul Craig Roberts has had careers in scholarship and academia, journalism, public service, and business.

Professor Luca Anceschi discusses recent events in Kazakhstan. We will never know if it was a revolution because the violence that ensued stopped the natural organic evolution of the protest movement into something that could have changed the political system. It's been a good week for Putin and a watershed moment for Kazakh-Russia relations. We're going to see a structural change where multi-vectorism will become a thing of the past, as Nursultan moves closer to Moscow and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), which Putin views as an instrument of geopolitical domination. He believes what occurred was a result of a domestic coup or elite rivalry situation, as in the past it was discovered President Tokayev's phone was being surveilled using Pegasus spyware. We discuss Nazarbayev's cult of personality, what consequences there might be for the region, and the road ahead. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes Kazakhstan: Secrets, Lies, and Foreign Troops https://carnegieeurope.eu/strategiceurope/86172 Why Kazakhstan will not be returning to Russia’s fold https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/01/13/why-kazakhstan-will-not-be-returning-russias-fold Websites University of Glasgow https://www.gla.ac.uk/schools/socialpolitical/staff/lucaanceschi/#biography Twitter https://twitter.com/anceschistan About Luca Anceschi Luca Anceschi is professor of Eurasian Studies at the University of Glasgow, where he is also the editor of the journal Europe-Asia Studies. *Podcast intro music is from the song "The Queens Jig" by "Musicke & Mirth" from their album "Music for Two Lyra Viols": http://musicke-mirth.de/en/recordings.html (available on iTunes or Amazon)

Journalist and researcher Paolo Sorbello gives his take on events in Kazakhstan. He says that what is going on has a lot to do with inequality and lack of representation, with inflation and fuel prices being the prime mover. He comments on the effects of the pandemic which have led to millions of unemployed. The scale of the peaceful protests was unprecedented and he believes it is not yet possible to determine the source of the violent protests. He points out the conflicting narratives of the government itself, that of an internal coup and foreign intervention. His response to accusations of "Color Revolution" is "which color is it"? He argues that protestors did not handle the weapons well and that the government put down the violence quickly, which suggests that there wasn't an organized domestic or external group, although it was strange that authorities allowed violent protestors to move into areas that should have been cordoned off. He thinks Nazarbayev and Tokayev are too wise to provoke such urban violence and believes the status quo will continue. Concerning the future of Kazakhstan, he fears freedoms will be targeted. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes Kazakhstan’s New Cabinet Features Many of the Same Ministers https://thediplomat.com/2022/01/kazakhstans-new-cabinet-features-many-of-the-same-ministers Kazakhstan’s Leadership Shows Internal Cracks in Attempts to Restore Public Safety https://thediplomat.com/2022/01/kazakhstans-leadership-shows-internal-cracks-in-attempts-to-restore-public-safety Websites Twitter https://twitter.com/PaoloBottleneck LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/paolosorbello ResearchGate https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Paolo-Sorbello Global Voices https://globalvoices.org/author/paolo-sorbello About Paolo Sorbello Paolo Sorbello is a journalist and researcher living in Kazakhstan.

Scientist Denis Rancourt returns to discuss his new paper which demonstrates that a pandemic did not occur. Whereas in some countries there was little to no excess mortality, in others like the USA, the 1 million excess deaths can be attributed directly to the government health measures and pandemic-response policies. He sees no evidence for a virulent respiratory disease. The U.S. is decoupling from China with whom it is in an economic war. As a result, there's going to be huge inflation which will wipe out the savings of ordinary people. He sees "COVID19" as being war measures applied to completely control domestic populations in the shadow of the U.S.-China geopolitical and geoeconomic conflict that will last at least a decade and even risk hot war. A totalitarian system is being put into place to get rid of democracy, and it has the potential to last a really long time. All countries must apply these measures in the context of this global war to ensure stability against unrest among their own populations. He thinks Western elites want an e-currency that will take over the world and gobble up any completing digital currencies, and which also cannot be circumvented. We also discuss resistance and non-compliance. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes Nature of the COVID-era public health disaster in the USA, from all-cause mortality and socio-geo-economic and climatic data https://denisrancourt.ca/entries.php?id=107&name=2021_10_25_nature_of_the_covid_era_public_health_disaster_in_the_usa_from_all_cause_mortality_and_socio_geo_economic_and_climatic_data Denis Rancourt: "Pandemic" Being Used to Accelerate US-led Globalization vs Sovereign Eurasia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNm7_9SRB08 GEO-ECONOMICS & GEO-POLITICS DRIVE SUCCESSIVE ERAS OF PREDATORY GLOBALIZATION https://www.researchgate.net/publication/332182416_GEO-ECONOMICS_AND_GEO-POLITICS_DRIVE_SUCCESSIVE_ERAS_OF_PREDATORY_GLOBALIZATION_AND_SOCIAL_ENGINEERING_Historical_emergence_of_climate_change_gender_equity_and_anti-racism_as_State_doctrines Websites Denis Rancourt https://denisrancourt.ca Twitter https://www.twitter.com/denisrancourt Ontario Civil Liberties Assocation https://ocla.ca/about/executive-members Denis Rancourt @ ResearchGate https://www.researchgate.net/profile/D_Rancourt Activist Teacher https://activistteacher.blogspot.com Telegram https://t.me/drdenies About Denis Rancourt Denis G.

In 2017, under the auspices of Sharon Tennison’s “Center for Citizen Initiatives” and together with 30 other American “citizen diplomats,” he visited Russia for three weeks and met with academics, businessmen, citizens and politicians including former president Mikhail Gorbachev to discuss US-Russia relations with the hope of bringing the Russian people’s desire for peace to the attention of U.S. citizens and policy makers in Washington. From 2010-2017 he had worked as a Secondary Humanities teacher and adjunct professor of International Relations at the Tecnológico de Monterrey in México. From 2008-2009 he obtained a Master of International Relations from the Geneva School of Diplomacy in Switzerland, where he also worked as a staff assistant with the Mission of the Czech Republic to the United Nations. From 2006-2007 he served as a volunteer with Peace Corps in Mongolia, albeit with voluntary early termination due to him being a bit of a listless wistful youth. He obtained his Bachelor of Arts in History and Secondary Education from Northeastern Illinois University in the United States. Born in the U.S.A., bred between the two worlds of America and Yugoslavia/Croatia, and naturalized a Mexican, he is a proud citizen of all three nations! *Podcast intro music is from the song "The Queens Jig" by "Musicke & Mirth" from their album "Music for Two Lyra Viols": http://musicke-mirth.de/en/recordings.html (available on iTunes or Amazon)

Russian military expert Andrei Martyanov discusses the dangers of American exceptionalism, globalism, and how our societies have become totalitarian. He explains how American military might was lost years ago and how Russia has not only become a peer competitor, but is decades ahead of the U.S. with a missile gap that has become a "technological abyss," possessing hypersonic weapons against which there is no defense (and which the U.S. does not have), air defense complexes (e.g. S-500s), and so on. True strength lies in possessing both an advanced physical economy together with first-rate military power. Russia has moved to a completely different tactical and operational paradigm. Conventionally, NATO and the U.S. can do nothing, Russia doesn't sweat them at all. The only war possible would be escalation to the nuclear threshold, but he believes there are enough smart people in Washington to prevent that. He comments on the disintegration of America culturally, and economically, which includes possibilities of hyperinflation and civil war. He believes the pandemic is a leverage points for the changeover of the old guard. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Website Clarity Press https://www.claritypress.com/book-author/andrei-martyanov Blog https://smoothiex12.blogspot.com YouTube https://www.youtube.com/user/smoothieX12 About Andrei Martyanov ANDREI MARTYANOV is an expert on Russian military and naval issues.

Patrick Wood gives us an update on how he thinks the technocratic Great Reset is faring, which earnestly began in 2020 with the pandemic declaration. Elites felt they had achieved a tipping point worth of objectives allowing them to proceed. Until capitalism and free-market economics are destroyed, Davos cannot Build Back Better. Patrick fears we are on the cusp of economic collapse led by either a black swan or the disintegration of the global supply chain, which was built as part of a move toward globalization in the 1970s by groups like the Trilateral Commission. If the supply chain fails, the global economy fails. The scientific dictatorship of total control envisioned by the elites is sold via innocuous slogans such as Agenda 21/2030 and Sustainable Development. He most fears the global collapse of the internet (cyber pandemic) which could lead to a cashless society and the tokenization of all wealth and assets by the central banks. He agrees that Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are a globalist Trojan horse. This system is not communism or socialism. He comments on the Digital ID/Passport/Social Credit system now being developed in all countries and thinks free speech is our absolute last line of defense. We also ponder whether we are living in the Book of Revelation. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes The Global Elite & the Coronavirus Coup d'état (w/ Spiro) https://www.bitchute.com/video/Hp1nrC5CAswn Technocracy (w/ Mercola) https://www.bitchute.com/video/KYvNNTKAWWwG Patrick Wood: China, Dystopian Technocracy, & Global Governance (w/ Geopolitics & Empire) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jziDChiicQ Technocracy Rising (w/ Richard Grove) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNkDiBOO4H0 Website Technocracy News https://www.technocracy.news Citizens for Free Speech https://www.citizensforfreespeech.org About Patrick Wood Patrick Wood is a leading and critical expert on Sustainable Development, Green Economy, Agenda 21, 2030 Agenda and historic Technocracy. He is the author of Technocracy Rising: The Trojan Horse of Global Transformation (2015) and co-author of Trilaterals Over Washington, Volumes I and II (1978-1980) with the late Antony C. Sutton. Wood remains a leading expert on the elitist Trilateral Commission, their policies and achievements in creating their self-proclaimed “New International Economic Order” which is the essence of Sustainable Development on a global scale. An economist by education, a financial analyst and writer by profession and an American Constitutionalist by choice, Wood maintains a Biblical world view and has deep historical insights into the modern attacks on sovereignty, property rights and personal freedom. Such attacks are epitomized by the implementation of U.N. policies such as Agenda 21, Sustainable Development, Smart Growth and in education, the widespread adoption of Common Core State Standards. Wood is a frequent speaker and guest on radio shows around the nation. His current research builds on Trilateral Commission hegemony, focusing on Technocracy, Transhumanism and Scientism, and how these are transforming global economics, politics and religion. *Podcast intro music is from the song "The Queens Jig" by "Musicke & Mirth" from their album "Music for Two Lyra Viols": http://musicke-mirth.de/en/recordings.html (available on iTunes or Amazon)

Jim Jatras returns to discuss how things are changing at an accelerating pace and his expectation that there will be an event or series of events of world historic proportions further on up the road. The Great Reset is something elites have been wanting to do for decades (e.g. turn the majority of the world into serfs). He doesn't see the dam breaking anytime soon (e.g. protests are irrelevant) as governments continue escalating their draconian policies. He doesn't see any political solution because, even if Republicans win, they'll just carry water for their real constituents, the corporations. We discuss civil war, Rainbow Fascism, crowd psychology, and the move from soft to hard totalitarianism. He touches on NATO-Russia tensions, how Moscow's ultimatum sounds like a pretext for war and how D.C. pushing Ukraine to act would lead to a definitive break in Russian relations with the West, leaving the EU under American control. We ponder whether we could be living through what John the Revelator on Patmos once wrote about. He's worried the American republic may in fact go gentle into the woke quiet night. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes It’s Later than You Think (TEXT) https://www.lewrockwell.com/2021/09/no_author/its-later-than-you-think It's Later Than You Think (VIDEO) https://youtu.be/QkJX2ffZaI0 Website Twitter https://twitter.com/JimJatras About Jim Jatras Jim Jatras is a Washington, DC-based attorney, political analyst, and media & government affairs specialist.

Former UN Independent Expert and Rapporteur Dr. Alfred de Zayas discusses his new book "Building a Just World Order" which outlines 25 principles of international order. We look at the undue influence of the CFR, WEF, Bilderberg, and Trilateral Commission in attempting to promote world government outside the UN context. He examines American exceptionalism, the Summit for Democracy, and what true democracy means. He believes only 20% of UN rapporteurs are truly independent while the rest are careerists who tout the status quo. He applauds the work of rapporteur Nilz Melser, discusses the growing trend of authoritarian techno-Orwellianism, and what the Assange case means for us all. He believes the U.S. doesn't really want to try Assange and rather wants him dead like Epstein. He also describes the corruption in the Humans Rights industry which will be the subject of his forthcoming book. We cover AMLO's push to create a Latin American EU, undue influences in the WHO, and the false accusations of Chinese genocide against the Uyghurs in Xinjiang. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes BOOK >>> Building a Just World Order (Clarity Press) https://www.claritypress.com/book-author/alfred-de-zayas Websites Website https://dezayasalfred.wordpress.com Website http://alfreddezayas.com Twitter https://twitter.com/alfreddezayas OHCHR Bio http://www.ohchr.org/EN/Issues/IntOrder/Pages/AlfredDeZayas.aspx About Alfred de Zayas Alfred-Maurice de Zayas studied history and law at Harvard, where he obtained his J.D.

Jay Dyer discusses the dystopia we find ourselves in and what he calls the "business phase" of the Great Reset. The elite's overall plan of the last century is being rolled out through managed and staged crises. The initial phases of the global government technocracy arose out of the UN's plans for managing nukes. Elites such as Jacques Attali call it a "planetary empire" of computer dominance. He sees it possible that all nations are on board with the long-term Great Reset agenda, yet that there can exist near-term regional conflicts and wars that can break out. What we can expect next are more of the Cyber Polygon type scenarios. He examines some of the Enlightenment occult and revolutionary philosophies that underpin America and how it eventually became the global implementer of the New World Order. We also discuss whether Bitcoin is a globalist Trojan Horse or a genuine cypherpunk creation. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes Rockefeller Lockstep 2010 https://www.nommeraadio.ee/meedia/pdf/RRS/Rockefeller%20Foundation.pdf Human Augmentation – Dawn of a New Paradigm https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/human-augmentation-the-dawn-of-a-new-paradigm Why the Future Doesn't Need Us https://www.wired.com/2000/04/joy-2 Lord Birkenhead's Cosmopolitan forecast https://www.scribd.com/document/36111515/Save-This-for-Your-Children-s-Children-Cosmopolitan-Magazine-Feb-1929 Websites Jay's Analysis https://jaysanalysis.com Rokfin https://rokfin.com/jaydyer Twitter https://twitter.com/Jay_D007 Telegram https://t.me/jaydyer About Jay Dyer Jay Dyer is an author, comedian and TV presenter known for his deep analysis of Hollywood, geopolitics, and culture.

Singer songwriter Brad Skistimas of Five Times August discusses his unanticipated turn toward anti-establishment rebel rock in the age of Covid. Many of his songs have gone viral and his most recent tune targeting Dr. Fauci had been censored and banned by YouTube. He talks about the pandemic power grab and how people continue to double down on their emotional investment in the official narrative even though none of this is making sense anymore. He touches on why all our old guitar heroes have gone woke and become part of the establishment. He addresses the challenge and danger of speaking your mind at the cost of family, friends, and fans.

Steve St. Angelo of the SRSrocco Report returns to continue our conversation on how the world is going off the Energy Cliff and how we are never going back to normal. We are seeing the peak and decline of this global hi-tech complex economy. He believes the elite are powerless to stop the falling Energy Return On Investment (EROI) and that a lot of their wealth is going to be wiped out, just as in past history (e.g. late Bronze Age). He sees us hitting the energy peak at 2025 and the likelihood of military conflicts as a consequence. Russia is looking to the Arctic and China is in serious trouble. We don't have enough energy to make the transition to the Green Economy and therefore things like the metaverse, cryptocurrencies, and EVs won't be possible at scale due to the lack of energy and an electric grid already at capacity. This would make maintaining a global digital technocracy difficult. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes A Forest Journey: The Role of Wood in the Development of Civilization https://www.amazon.com/Forest-Journey-Role-Development-Civilization/dp/0393026671 Website SRSrocco Report https://srsroccoreport.com YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/SRSroccoReport Twitter https://www.twitter.com/SRSroccoReport About Steve St. Angelo Independent researcher Steve St. Angelo (SRSrocco) started to invest in precious metals in 2002.

Moscow-based Riley Waggaman gives us his take on why Russia is going full COVID1984. He considers the COVID19 phenomenon to basically be: a positive PCR Test, huge data manipulation, and medical malpractice. The general mood toward coronavirus restrictions in Russia is that the people are so "over" it, but the government continues to aggressively shove these soul-raping measures down everyone's throat. The federal government wants to institute a national digital health pass for all aspects of life. A lot of the elements of the Russian government are totally on board with the WEF, 4IR, and transhumanism. He points out the example of Veronika Skvortsova who plays a key role in Russia's pandemic response and is on a Gates committee. All of the conflicts between the West and Russia are fights over oil pipelines and whose oligarch gets to pump oil and where. Is an allegedly sovereign Russia-China multipolar world a system that will support freedom of movement or basic human rights? No. Russians have been able to weaponize social media and force the Duma to delay QR Code and vaccine mandate legislation, but Riley thinks the legislation will eventually soon be passed. Covid is just one of many tricks in the bag and things have the potential to get really bad, he doesn't think it's going to work out well for a lot of us. He thinks the "Cyber Pandemic" is totally coming. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes Moscow 2030 https://2030.mos.ru/en Cops hunt down Russians who politely asked Putin to stop nationwide QR-tagging https://edwardslavsquat.substack.com/p/russian-cops-begin-hunting-down-feral In 2019, Russia studied how to create "a new type of society" using genome editing https://edwardslavsquat.substack.com/p/in-2019-russia-studied-how-to-create A Bill Gates disciple in the Russian government? https://edwardslavsquat.substack.com/p/a-bill-gates-disciple-in-the-russian What awaits Russia? https://edwardslavsquat.substack.com/p/what-awaits-russia Duma deputy: "Protect yourself and Russia from a coup d'état!" https://edwardslavsquat.substack.com/p/duma-deputy-protect-yourself-and Websites Edward Slavsquat Substack https://edwardslavsquat.substack.com Twitter https://twitter.com/RileyWaggaman Anti-Empire https://anti-empire.com About Riley Waggaman Edward Slavsquat is a moniker sometimes used by Riley Waggaman, an American writer and journalist based in Moscow.

Harley Schlanger discusses the importance of JFK on the 58th anniversary of his assassination, how he had been moving against 'empire policy', and how far downhill the U.S. has gone since. The U.S. is committed to a global "rules-based order" with rules made by bankers and some of the same cartels, networks, and trusts who put Hitler into power. The Great Reset is something that has been underway for a while, which would give central bankers the power to determine spending. The Green New Deal is connected to The Great Reset because they don't want to invest new credit into new physical economy, they want to shut down production. This is the purpose of the concocted environmental crisis. These Malthusians would rather not reduce the population through war because military conflict can get out of hand, they prefer disease and IMF conditionalities. The Treasury and Fed are setting up special detective units to check which countries and banks are investing in corporations that have a carbon footprint, with the idea of denying them credit. Given that they have suffered a huge loss at COP26, we discuss the escalation toward a US-Russia-China war, how we are one false flag away from conflict, and how Belt and Road threatens the international oligarchy. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Show Notes Conference: All Moral Resources of Humanity Have To Be Called Up https://schillerinstitute.com/blog/2021/11/11/conference-all-moral-resources-of-humanity-have-to-be-called-up-mankind-must-be-the-immortal-species Websites Harley's Updates https://laroucheorganization.nationbuilder.com/harley_daily_update Schiller Institute https://schillerinstitute.com Twitter https://twitter.com/HarleySchlanger About Harley Schlanger Harley Schlanger is the Vice President of the Schiller Institute USA, National Spokesman for Lyndon LaRouche.

John Klyczek discusses the roots of the modern-day technocratic system of education. Beginning with its Prussian origins in Johann Gottlieb Fichte, Wilhelm Wundt's laboratory for psychological research, the Order of Skull and Bones, John Dewey, and John B. Watson, these systems are geared toward a collectivist model of workforce training and stimulus response psychology. Later on, UNESCO through Julian Huxley seeks to integrate the idea of eugenics into the education system. Through the decades buzzwords like "life-long learning" appear, which in reality refers to continual institutional re-training to keep up with the evolution of the global economy. He believes we are already under world government. He discusses how the purpose of the vaccine mandate in education is to really create the pretext for a blockchain Digital ID which then expands to a Social Credit System. He explains how the shocking real purpose of the politically correct "woke" movement is to categorize everybody to make it easier for the AI machine learning to data mine us.
