You quoted Bonhoeffer "There are people who are intellectually agile who are stupid, while intellectually inept people may be anything but stupid. We discover this to our surprise in certain situations." So true. What a brilliant and good man. One's reaction to the COVID scamdemic was the best IQ test I've seen in my lifetime. Which is why I can't take seriously anything a person who got the jab says. Malone and Aseem Malhotra come to mind. There are plenty of others on our side who fell for the obvious BS. Remember how easily fooled they were.
Exactly. Convid scamdemic finally opened my eyes to how the Amish and Mennonites are able to see the endless war nonsense for exactly what it is. Evil men determined to cause intentional harm in direct opposition to God's commandments and the teachings of his son Jesus Christ.
Thank you, you are correct. For some reason I always confuse him with John Campbell. I asked AI and in spite of being supportive of the jabs initially, there is no clear evidence whether Campbell got the jab or not. I'll edit my post. Malhotra is a good substitution. Thanks!
While I actually DID get the first two jabs I agree with most all you say. Some of us, though foolishly accepted the Kool Aid, woke up finally, and now, refuse to comply. . . while regretting.
As far as being fooled, I can say I was, partially, but mostly I just did not see anything coming of the media narrative.
Foolish as it sounds, I just did not want to . . . wait for it. . . wear a mask at the local lumber store!
Thank you John Leake for being a great critical and independent-minded thinker who knows his history and how the "banality of evil" works! You might have also quoted Edmund Burke, "Nothing so effectively robs the mind of its ability to think as fear." Or Hitler Assistant Goring's tips on how to manipulate "otherwise good Germans" by telling them they were being attacked. Since WWII, social psychologists Asch, Milgram and Zimbardo, among others, repeatedly and sadly proved the human group vulnerability to being manipulated by fear, hate, greed, false pride and blind loyalty by those in or deemed to be in authority.
I had the great fortune of meeting Fred Korematsu in his 90's just a year or two before he passed away. Too bad we can't post photos here! But he and Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson, who became the Nuremberg Prosecutor and was also one of the three who dissented in favor of Korematsu, are some of my heroes. And you too standing up with Bonhoeffer to the Dummheit Club!
So the CIA hasn't changed. And if Trump's DOJ arrests him, I will change to Independent. They will be weaponizing the government just like the Demoncrats do...just because Tucker dares to question all this Zionist support. Laura Loomer has been calling for his arrest and several others.
Yes, go independent. Why let a political party do the thinking for you? Both parties are vile and demonic in their own right. If you're a Christian, remember Jesus word: my kingdom is not part of this world." Satan even offered Jesus political power, but he refused.
Turning independent is a good thing in any event. Especially if you are able to think for yourself and care about specific issues as opposed to the groupy-identity. For starters, the base of each of the two parties, is just taken for granted when it comes to all important issues.
Is it fear when an enemy that’s told Christian’s, Jews and everyone who isn’t Muslim that they have 440 kilos of enriched “ weapons grade”, uranium, during “peace” negotiations and they have always publicly said that they wanted to use them? Should we be threatened by a country who has killed over a million people residing in said country over the last 47 years? Should we be concerned when their proxies are responsible for millions dead in Africa because they don’t have the desire to be Muslims? Should we be concerned about millions of the same people, who are in the US, and want to impose sharia law in the US, which killing infidel’s is their duty? The same laws that it’s OK to throw acid on a woman’s face or “mercy killing “ of women for multiple reasons including if they are raped? To prove that we don’t have the “mind virus “, should we allow/ encourage the same people to do as they are doing in Europe and every other country that they have “migrated “ to? Is the mind virus worse than committing your own genocide? Food for thought.
Has it occurred to you that your government and its media lackeys are not telling you a full and impartial account of Iran and what has been going on with Iran since the CIA overthrew its democratically elected government in 1953? Do you think the government and its media lackeys told you the truth about C-19 and the vaccine?
Don't care what the govt has said. Iran has been active (among others) in inducing a change in American daily life for decades. Go figure the reasons; maybe they originate in the USA. Regardless, IRGC is a venomous entity, and American life is less free because if it. Decapitating the snake is warranted, who cares who gave birth to it.
A present day Bonhoeffer might ponder the question of why the American people — despite their education, culture, and intellectual achievements — had fallen so far from reason and morality.
Tucker v. CIA is a non starter, as CIA won't police domestic anything, and FARA is reserved for agents, which Tucker is not, unless he has been shown to have taken payment from a foriegn source in return for a domestic PR deliverable. Even so, that would not be CIA.
Easy to fall into the Internment scold in 2026. You weren't there in the 1940's, so best to take a pass on laying into value judgments. You can say it did not pass strict scrutiny in accord with the written law, but you cannot say it was unjust in time of active peril. That there was found to be no lurking Japanese war machine off the coast does not absolve of real fears from pattern recognition training: Pearl Harbor caused loss of loved ones; subsequent artillery fire from an actual combatant inducing a native reaction is wholly justified. You can shame and ridicule fear all you like, but when real events do occur, they become confirmations that cement reality to fear; it's justified.
Also regarding the Internment, kinship is/can be more powerful than national identity. So, in time of war, it is rational to suspect alliances of kinship despite membership as a citizen. You can say it's not "fair"; you cannot dismiss it as a stupid human behavior. Makes the point that a common cultural heritage allows constitutional frameworks to remain viable and robust.
Somehow this relates to Iran and Trump's attack on it. You fail to realize that the entirety of YOUR life has been undeniably altered due to terrorism exclusively. Middle East exported terrorism has induced an American siege mentality that has brought about DHS--there is no American Homeland--and Patriot Act, TSA, FISA, and the works...even covid tied in to the centralization of policing and coercive powers. ALL due to M.E. terrorism. You can source the reasons for M.E. terrorism, but it all comes back to an American inability to live out a secure existence devoid of paranoia.
Many who welcome Trump's disarming of Iran are NOT afraid of Iran visiting harm at their doorstep. Hardly. Rather, many view it opportunistically: Trump decided, he acted, IRGC gets defanged, and bravo! Now, let's let the world get back to more normal behaviors and relations so that American life can begin to return to normal without a paranoid obsession with terror around every corner.
Totally agree with your thesis on fear. It is the primary driver of conflict and violence. No doubt.
I did not understand your reference to Tucker. Did you assume he was ignorantly reacting to fear of being targeted by the Intel Community and the DOJ? Were you not aware that Laura Loomer subsequently took credit for causing alarm within the Intel Community and bringing a request for DOJ prosecution of Tucker. He was not wandering off in a haze of unfounded fear. Those who targeted him took responsibility.
Related to this topic, I highly recommend reading Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet. This moving historical novel is appropriate and engaging for both adults and teens. A story of enduring first love across the decades despite WW II, including Japanese-American internment.
“When you are put on trial in synagogues or in front of rulers and authorities, don’t worry about how you will defend yourselves or what you will say. 12 At that time the Holy Spirit will teach you what you must say.”
I was arrested 5 times and jailed 55 graceful day with no priors for Covid. I also was 1 of the last video interviews of my attorny friend, Reiner Feullmich. We discussed faith before he was arrested and got his ~3 years. The verse is to encourage and the time served is not to cause fear, much the contrary. Do everything the Lord tells you to do and you will thrive. You are not to be a holy martyr, rather blessed. If you serve time, my guess is it'll be better conditions than Reiner and ai got. I bless it'll lead to glorious outcomes like all the Bible protagonists (Joseph next becoming 2nd to the King, Daniel, Paul + Silas and others not named John the Baptist) May contemporary, historical legacies mark your path for peace, liketh once Atty Mahatma Gandhi & Nelson Mandela who served time. Be brave, be bold, be blesed.
Well done, John. Well explicated. I wonder at people like Trump who think that a Golden Age can arise from war. The individual must already be living the "the Golden Age" for the Golden Age to appear. War doesn't create peace. Very few people seem to understand this notion. War creates war. Bloodshed creates bloodshed. Etc.
do some research. I already have. Do your own then you'll be satisfied. He's already admitted in interviews he applied...... yet I've explored beyond that.
People have trouble grappling with the fact that the CIA funds the Dali Lama (what has the Dalai Lama ever really done for Tibet....other than lip service), funded Gloria Steinem (she helped convince women to destroy the family unit ), funded Julia Child (she gathered intel while living in Paris with her husband) and the list goes on. Look up Operation Mocking Bird to understand how the media is controlled. Things are not as they appear.
Where did you do your research? Google? People change over their lifetime. But it’s more convenient for people to judge others on who they were decades ago. Personally, I choose to research who people are now, in the present, not who they once were.

While the Amish do not believe in getting a vaccines they still have a long way to go when it comes to treating their buggy horses humanely.
I believe Vernon did not take the jab.

The false framing of the covid response as a “war” ensured the same pattern of fear, oppression, and collective stupidity.

No, not Tucker's fear. It is others over-sensitized and hypervigilant at this time, who fear Tucker. This is what I heard.

Very important point for today and always!! Thank you!!!!!
There are a lot of bots and psy-ops being run on we the people. John's new book will be most welcome when the release date finally gets here.
Tucker Carlson is CIA.
Prove it please. Just because his father was, does not mean that Tucker is also.
