Many thanks, David. Much obliged.

The mistake the Founding Fathers made was not putting term limits in the Constitution. They never imagined a permanent political class. They expected congressmen and senators to go home and tend to their businesses and farms and law practices after they had served their country. If two terms were the norm there would be much less opportunity for graft.

I just finished reading a number of books on this subject....about our founding fathers. One was E Pluribus Unum by Forrest McDonald. It wrote about all the difficulties getting the 13 colonies to agree in order to establish the American government. Every colony had its own specific interests. It was a miracle they finally finished the writing of the Constitution in 1787...but not everybody was satisfied until the Bill of Rights with the first ten Amendments to the Constitution was ratified December. 15, 1791.

Yes, a big mistake.

Probably the main reason our “elected folks” never create freeing solutions to anything, as they gotta keep the ball in the air to make themselves relevant…..

America has gone downhill scholastically, mentally, physically and spiritually in the last 75 years. I became aware of the damage that our government has helped create, with its total focus on money to the detriment of every American. The industries it has promoted have aided in the destruction of the mental and physical health of the population; along with the total environment. The industries being promoted have also affected the minds of those who are in positions of leadership. Our leaders have lost their ability to analyze and think clearly. They as well as everyone else eat the same nutrient-poor garbage, take the same drugs and vaccines, drink alcohol and smoke...and have destroyed their brain's. I started studying the various glands in the brain, because of information coming from different doctors, such as , Dr. Peter Breggins, on the Internet and being into nutrition for 65 years I realized the function of the bloodstream is to carry nutrients from specific natural food to the organs and glands....not toxic matter from drugs or vaccines. The matter which most people put into their bodies without thinking is destroying the glands in their brains, which is leading to the degeneration of the human species. There is a most important gland in the brain called the Pineal Gland...It is thought to be our seat of consciousness, which aids in determining right from wrong. The drugs and vaccines particularly have wiped it out. I am old enough to see the radical difference between the character of many people of today and the people who lived 75 years ago.

I'm old enough to see it too. How sad, and how odd, that human beings now have to be quite old to see straight...

I started waking up 65 years ago...but the information was so bad that i went downhill for a number of years. Our government is the fount of misinformation! The first thing I learned was how bad sugar and flour were in 1961....so I got unhooked from those two items. However, it took finding information coming from Dr. Norman Walker who was the author of 10 books on health, before I was really impacted in 1976. His information helped me get rid of rapidly growing tumor. Life is all about learning.

Thanks for sharing your info. You are way ahead of the curve. Your last sentence that life is all about learning is what I constantly tell people.

I got the line from someone else— “The day I stop learning is the day I die.” I always strive to learn something new every day.

Barbara Charis's avatar

I took a break from the Internet for 6 months to catch up on my reading. i had a stack of books that were waiting to be read. One should never never stop learning....there are so many interesting things in this world.

Rik's avatar

Thanks for that info, Barbara. All the best!

"A pathological liar is unable to control their lying due to the underlying mental health disorder." That is what you are observing! They believe their own lies! Some NA clinics write that PLiars become medically insane after a few months of believing their own lies. I know this to be a scientific fact of reality, as a retired prof of Ethology, the science of studying behavior where the subject does not know they are being watched by a professional, as opposed to clinical psychiatry where the subject knows they are being watched, so behave differently on purpose. Dr. Breggins is one of the few psychiatrists in the world that does his field correctly in my book! https://www.newportinstitute.com/resources/co-occurring-disorders/pathological-liar-signs/

Barbara Charis's avatar

Dr. Breggins wrote about the importance of the Pineal gland, which drugs and vaccines destroy. It is thought to be the Seat of Consciousness in the human body from whence our guidance occurs; relating to right and wrong. I know as a child I used to get many gut feelings about things. I knew the difference, between right and wrong. Many today have no conscience. I attribute it to the toxins they have ingested or have had injected into their bloodstreams. The Medical Industry has really done a number on its victims.

Rik's avatar

The lack of conscience is such a prominent feature in many aspects of society today - politics especially, of course, but also practically any other field where what now passes for 'the authorities' just try to bully everybody into submission.

People today don't like to talk about things like 'conscience' seriously, because it is a spiritual matter, and that's just not fashionable. But actual real-world events are calmly pushing thinking people more and more into thoughtful views of the world, and if anything can save us, I think it will be that.

I have forwarded your offer for the book interview to two men in media I have met previously, John Leake. I hope they contact you. They are on our side it seems, and well liked. I find them to be honest and discreet. Wide distribution of your book would be an asset in the recovery of the West.

John, I love your work, but I find that cover image disturbing. Perhaps it is meant to be.

John Leake's avatar

it's a very disturbing book!

James's avatar

Having followed your Substack for a while now, I’m definitely putting this book on my list. 👍

I do not have a personal contact, so am not emailing it. But, a person who you might not think of but who may be interested:

curtjaimungal@substack.com

Curt is primarily a substack and youtube writer re breaking science concepts. He's an excellent interviewer and has interviewed the biggest names in science on his podcast Theory of Everything. He is more eclectic than one might expect. Mind Viruses may tweak his interest.

Thanks so much for showcasing your forthcoming book here on Substack! Great chapter titles made me think this is going to be a combination of disturbing and uplifting - and made me promptly pre-order the book on Audible!!

Deborah's avatar

Since 2001? Are you kidding me? It started with JFK assassination, although all warfare in the 1900s is highly suspect with an endgame in mind that is all playing out now.

John Leake's avatar

The book focuses on the last 25 years, but makes frequent forays into all of history.

Who are the people within the ruling class - and is the ruling class an organized entity? Or, is the ruling class a collection of competing entities and wealthy families. As per, the military industrial complex, the financial industrial complex, the technical industrial complex, the medical industrial complex and the Rockefeller and Rothschilds families. Additionally, are Zionists entrenched within the global 'ruling class'?

Hopefully, John will be able to shine some light on the above, as it's an arduous task defeating an indiscernible enemy.

Christopher Quick's avatar

The indiscernible enemy is the ancient Enemy, Satan. It works through all of the above and others, i.e. Freemasonry, WHO, Deep State. It is the final chapter in Mind Viruses. It is a spiritual Enemy and can only be defeated spiritually, through faith in Jesus Christ.

Thank you for your reply. I am a firm believer in God and prayer. And I believe God has spoken to me many times, providing me with the solution on how we can negate the only real weapon the evil ones have. That weapon of course, is money and the manner in which it's deployed to bribe, blackmail and capture those we elect.

If our elected 'rule-makers' and their departments are captured, so too are entities like MSM, science, medicine, education etc. because governments establish the rules from which they operate. The majority of those entities accept private money. If private money was completely eliminated from every aspect of public governance, their weapon is negated and the nexus between our governments and the evil ones is broken. Private money can easily be replaced through taxation of the mega rich.

In recent times, I believe the level of evil has reached a point whereby the work of God is becoming increasingly visible. More and more citizens are becoming aware of who the evil ones are and their objectives - to satisfy their lust for money and power, via covert control of the people who determine the quality of our lives.

I believe our prayers should be that citizens unite and gather together in great numbers, demanding of our governments, changes to Constitutions that result in the removal of private money from all public governance.

Christopher Quick's avatar

So true. There is a book called The War Against Humanity by Anonymous Patriot that was written for servants of God like yourself. God has clearly spoken to this author.

david fookes's avatar

Thank you for the tip on the book. Take care.

Natalie Kahn's avatar

With apologies, I wish to comment on the cover of the book for I want to buy it. The extremely disturbing art depicting bloody, fiery rage begs me to conceal the cover, so uninviting if I were to recommend the book to others. i would appreciate if another printing of your fine work will reveal a tasteful book cover.

John Leake's avatar

Thanks for the critical feedback, I appreciate it. My mother agrees with you. The cover is an allusion to an allegorical painting about madness and how it devours everything, as well as a recent traumatic event that I witnessed in a video recording. I wrote the book to illustrate how much danger humanity now finds itself as a result of its own capacity for collective irrationality.

OldSysEng's avatar

I like to read a book whenever I dine by myself. Often someone asks what I am reading and I show them my book - I too would like a simple cover that does not imply fear-porn.

Natalie Kahn's avatar

It's called fearmongering exposing the author's unintentional (hopefully) tactic he also claims as being unjustly exploited by governing leaders let alone others fiercely claiming solutions for world civilization degradation.

What a fantastically intriguing subtitle! Well done, John!! I guess I should read the article now. 😜

The Republic died the day JFK was murdered.

Taming the Wolf Institute's avatar

That day there was a palpable sense of cosmic doom. I recall experiencing it as a teen and thinking to myself:"This is real evil. This is the curtain of darkness coming down on our lives." A distinct and tangible memory.

John Leake throws sunlight on our current situation. Best paragraph of the week.

"It’s the ruling class in the United States that has imperiled our Constitutional Republic with its unbridled avarice, ambition, revenge, and lust. In plain language, we are governed by monstrously selfish degenerates."
