Quote:THOSE IRANIAN CRYPTO-CURRENCY ACCOUNTS & CENTRAL BANK…

June 23, 2025 / Joseph P. Farrell

If you're like me you've been closely glued to the developing events in Iran ever since the Trump administration took the decision to use bunker busting bombs against Iran's underground nuclear facilities.  Since the event, the commentary, kuddos, and condemnations have been freely flowing. However, I'm not here to advance any particular policy nor view of the events currently being debated, but rather, to point out a couple of very odd factoids and to do my usual Wile E. Coyote nosedive off of the twig of high octane speculation into the canyon below as to what it all might mean.

The first little factoid needs little to no explanation, because if you've been paying attention, it falls very quickly and easily into the "I told you so" box. According to this story shared by W.G. (with our gratitude), the usual "unspecified hackers" have apparently "drained" crypto-currency accounts in (you guessed it) Iran:

Hackers with Likely Ties to Israel Wipe Out $90M from Iran Crypto Exchange Used by Terrorists

Now,  you'll have noted from the headline itself that these "unspecified hackers" are in fact from Israel, and that the crypto-accounts targets were allegedly those "used by terrorists".  So let us note the following things about this in relationship to the ever-evolving narrative about the security of crypto-currency. We started out the crypto-craze, you'll recall, with confident assertions of the fad's complete unhackability, utter privacy and security, and how it was all going to end central bank monopolies on money-issuance and control.  Then, gradually, the stories started to appear that this or that root system had been hacked, stories that were carefully reported (to draw an analogy to how the media likes to bury stories while pretending to report them) on page 4 at the bottom right hand in a story that ran two whole column inches, in the women's squash team sub-section of the sports pages, and right next to the daily jumble puzzle.

So much for all the claims about crypto-currencies. But I want to draw attention to another aspect of this story, one that illustrates what my principal concern all along has been, and it is a concern shared by Catherine Austin Fitts, and many other crypto-critics. The system itself is designed to be for the explicit purpose of a social credit and surveillance system. If you don't behave and like and support the things we, Mr. Globaloney, tell you to like and support, then we'll devalue, or even completely shut down, your money supply until you do. In this case, the nasty Iranian regime had accounts hacked by the Israeli regime. Just imagine what you could do with a whole network of computers being run by comprised systems all over the world (think PROMIS here) that are in charge of national "sovereign 'wealth'" funds that include family sponsored cryo-'currency' "assets".

And we can confidently predict the result of this Israeli hacktivity: For All Your Covert Operations Needs, Use Cash. If the Iranian regime was stupid enough to fund its terrorism activities via crypto-currency accounts then rest assured it is already reassessing that platform.

But there's an even larger picture looming behind the events in Iran. Already we've seen the Iranian crown prince recording videos asking the Iranian people to rise up and overthrow the regime. One senses a bit of deja vu in all of this: we're back in the 1950s, with the election of Mossadegh, and Iran's nationalization of the various British petroleum interests in that country. We all know the story: the Clowns in American in concert with Britain's MI-6 staged a coup, overthrew Mossadegh, and installed the Shah, Reza Pahlavi, back on the Peacock Throne, whose SAVAK secret police quickly established itself as a rival to the current Iranian regime for its inventive and creative brutality against its own people, leading, of course, to the conditions that created his overthrow.

There is, however, yet another thing that is not even being mentioned by the media in all of this - both pro- and anti- Israel/Iran, and it is something that should be front and center in the discussion.

Remember Moammar Qaddafi? The leader of Libya once reviled (rightly) as a sponsor of "state terrorism", who "turned the cheek" and decided to dismantle his country's support for terrorism and, incidentally, its own nuclear aspirations? He, too, was running an "Islamic state" based on the lack of usury and a central bank along the western model. Indeed, he was taking steps to establish a currency for Africa based on (here it comes), gold. And by the way, while we're at it, have you noticed all the neural linguistic programming going on lately with the root word "gold"? "Golden age", "golden era", "pure gold", "gold-backed crypto-currencies" etc, etc? [Golden Dome]

So in addition to all the deja vu over the current events in Iran and their similarities to events of merely a few decades ago, whatever the motivations of the deep "geopolifinance" of those events might be, you can add yet another: namely, that Iran "needs" a central bank that Mr. Globaloney controls so that it can "enter" the "community of nations" and live "peaceably" with its neighbours...

... while being plundered. The word from American history for this whole operation and technique is "reconstruction"(see my two books, The Rialto in Richmond, and The Rialto in Richmond Reconstructed). It's been updated a bit, and now includes the phrases "nation-building" and "regime change", but it's still reconstruction, and is still being done at the point of bayonets and bombs.

See you on the flip side...

I'd like to take this opportunity to 'de-construct' the theme of some statements I've made lately.  ...

I have been severely critical of the USN and USAF for their ability to respond to smaller threats, and only responding by building bigger and more expensive naval and air assets.  I stand firmly by these statements.

Now, that said, what we have just seen happen in Iran are examples of exactly the opposite.  They are examples of heavy, and expensive, firepower.  I readily acknowledge this.  As we move forward, we are likely to see more of the same, up to and including carrier task forces moving up near, if not into, the Persian Gulf.  Let's examine this. ...

The heaviest boat the Iranian "Navy" has is FAR smaller than the smallest fleet capable USN asset.  What this means is, in order to defend these massive USN assets, you have to put other massive (and expensive) US assets out there to run interference (i.e. billion dollar destroyers, frigates, etc).  At best, the Iranian "navy" is patrol boats, BUT...they have LOTS of them, AND, they're expendable.  Not so with a US Naval asset, even the smallest ones.

Now, if the 'Rules of Engagement' weren't filled with all sorts of "touchy-feely feel good conditions" this might be a different post.  Then, the mantra might be to give notice, and then...."If it moves, even a little bit, then blow it to the F'king MOON from 50 miles away (i.e. over the horizon)!"  But those aren't the rules of engagement, and instead there are all these rules (which our enemies LOVE BTW (and hide behind), about preventing collateral civilian damage).  So, now we have billion dollar assets trying to defend themselves against fishing launches and small gunboats.  Where the odds should be decidedly lopsided, now they are even, or even in the enemy's favor (because our hands are tied 16 ways from Sunday).

Some small boats would fix this problem.  Engage, and if they resist, mark them, and then...BOOM!  Buh-bye!  

So, just to be clear; I was never pooping on heavy military assets (nor do I think I have ever suggested such).  I was only 'pooping' on our failure to size threat responses appropriately.

Thank you.

That is all.

The president said in a post on Truth Social that the special prosecutor should probe evidence of alleged fraud.

President Donald Trump on Friday called for a special counsel to investigate the 2020 election results and once more alleged fraud, after the FBI director disclosed this week that the Chinese regime may have conspired to influence the race.
While touting what he said were zero border crossings for the past month, Trump called for the Department of Justice to appoint a special prosecutor and investigate the 2020 election.
“The evidence is MASSIVE and OVERWHELMING. A Special Prosecutor must be appointed. This cannot be allowed to happen again in the United States of America!” he wrote on social media platform Truth Social.
Trump’s post comes after FBI Director Kash Patel said that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) allegedly conspired to mass-produce fabricated driver’s licenses as part of a ballot scheme during the 2020 contest.
“The FBI has located documents which detail alarming allegations related to the 2020 U.S. election, including allegations of interference by the CCP,” Patel said in a June 16 post on social media platform X. “I have immediately declassified the material and turned the documents over to [Chairman] Grassley for further review.” Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) is chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Patel did not provide further details about the allegations surrounding the 2020 presidential election or about the CCP’s alleged interference. Grassley’s office told The Epoch Times in an emailed statement this week that he “is in receipt of an FBI document responsive to a request he made based on legally protected whistleblower disclosures.”

FBI Renews Scrutiny Over Handling of 2020 Election Interference Allegation Against China

“The document alleges serious national security concerns that need to be fully investigated by the FBI,” said the statement, which also noted that Grassley is seeking further information from the FBI to verify the document’s production.
The intelligence information report originated from the agency’s Albany Field Office and dates back to September 2020, according to his office. Grassley also sent a letter on Tuesday that asked Patel for more information about how the September 2020 intelligence report was handled by the FBI at the time.
Patel also told Just the News earlier this week that the documents and report he provided to Grassley and his committee included “allegations of plans from the CCP to manufacture fake driver’s licenses and ship them into the United States for the purpose of facilitating fraudulent mail-in ballots.”
He suggested that he considers the allegations to be “unsubstantiated” but noted that those claims “were abruptly recalled and never disclosed to the public.”
Democrat Joe Biden was declared the victor of the 2020 presidential election. Trump challenged the results in some states, alleging voter fraud, and has often said on social media and elsewhere that he was the rightful winner of the race against Biden.
About a month after that election, the Supreme Court in December 2020 rejected a Trump-backed bid filed by the state of Texas that sought to invalidate results in Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. Biden was certified as the winner of those states’ electoral votes. The high court ruled that Texas didn’t have legal standing to file the challenge against the other states.
In 2023, Trump was indicted by a former special counsel, Jack Smith, and by the district attorney’s office in Fulton County, Georgia, over allegations that he improperly sought to overturn the 2020 election results. Trump pleaded not guilty to the charges, and both cases were ultimately dropped.
Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, who is currently Trump’s CIA director, said in a 2021 letter to Congress that the CCP attempted to interfere in the 2020 election.

According to researchers the strange radio pulses were discovered using sensitive listening equipment attached to a balloon above the South Poll in the hunt for neutrinos , the signals they picked up would have had to travel through thousands of miles of rock to reach the surface , researchers believe the signals are not representative of neutrinos so what we have is a bit of a mystery.

Quote:"It's an interesting problem because we still don't actually have an explanation for what those anomalies are," Stephanie Wissel, a particle physicist and co-author of the study, said in a statement.

The project was designed to capture data about neutrinos — subatomic particles that are especially difficult to study because they lack electric charge and have minimal mass. These elusive characteristics have earned them the nickname "ghost particles".

But the confusing radio signals are "most likely not representing neutrinos," Wissel said. Existing models, she explained, predict that pulses caused by neutrinos would originate from angles very far from 30 degrees under the surface. The new study provides further evidence that neutrinos are probably not involved.
Using complex mathematical models and simulations, the research team also ruled out noise and known particle interactions as sources of the signals. They even examined data from other experiments to see if they observed any interaction that could cause the pulses, to no avail.
Since these observations can't be explained by the Standard Model, the theory that describes subatomic particles, the phenomenon responsible for these pulses could be key to unlocking new scientific understanding.

Rogue states Russia and Iran attempting to destroy MAGA movement with disinformation bot army

Origin source:  6/18/25 – False Flags and Fake MAGA: How Foreign and Inauthentic Networks use Fake Speech to Destabilize the Right from Within

Quote:Russia and Iran are targeting the Make America Great Again movement and trying to “destabilize the right from within,” according to a new report.

Both rogue states are using tens of thousands of social media bots to amplify untrue voices and opinions “masquerading as MAGA loyalists,” to cause chaos and confusion and question US leadership, The Post has learned.

The bots are automated software applications that mimic human activity on social media.
They are used to amplify real-life influencers who post untrue “false flag” narratives designed to discredit President Donald Trump and his conservative stalwarts, according to a bombshell new report from the Network Contagion Research Institute, a politically neutral nonprofit who study extremism on the web

Quote:“If you talk to Republicans right now, more than 80 percent of them support the war against Iran. But if you go on Twitter you get the sense that there is a civil war raging.

“This is exactly the purpose of the psychological operation — to destabilize people’s perceptions of institutions that are supposed to protect us,” said an NCRI analyst.

The bots make it look like extreme posters have tons more support than they actually have, which helps to persuade other real life viewers that what they are posting is legitimate.

The bots use innocuous, average names and have profiles which make them appear as average Americans.

NCRI says after domestic attacks, including the Uvalde school shooting, Matthew Crooks assassination attempt on Donald Trump and the murder of two Israeli embassy staffers in Washington DC in May it has noticed an alarming trend of a “false flag reflex”.

“Within minutes of initial reports [the events are recast] as evidence of hidden conspiratorial plots, obscuring the true motives and perpetrators.

“In the days following these crises, Kremlin-affiliated propagandists and Iranian state-linked media are able to rapidly inject narratives that are taken up by MAGA-impostor influencers, who then inject them into MAGA-branded spaces,” the report notes.

Quote:Despite being staunch atheists, Chinese Communist leaders and their officials have long believed in supernatural powers and often consulted psychics. Local officials in Northeast China once discovered a man from a rural area who has the ability to see both the past and the future. They called him Half-Immortal Wang and frequently sought him out for fortune-telling. Eventually, Wang was brought to Beijing, where he advised some of the most powerful men in China. Yet despite his uncanny ability to foresee events, Wang couldn’t escape a tragic fate himself. His most important prophecy? The end of the Chinese Communist Party—and according to Wang, it’s just around the corner.

Quote:2025 Roster: Bilderberg Meets In Europe, June 12-14

Bilderberg is where David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski received the blessing to start the Trilateral Commission in 1972. It is the consummate networking group in the world. This year's invitation-only group includes AI and technocrats, journalists, military, pharma, politicians, and global institutions. Peter Thiel and Alex Karp are on the Steering Committee that picks the participants.

I watched it and felt the excitement as most of the world did about the moon landing....but...?

Just sayin'!  Don't know who came up with these candy names, but "Fun Sized" is anything but fun...even for a little kid.  Probably should call it "Joke Sized".  Oh, and "Snack Sized" isn't any sort of a 'snack' I know.

Before the World became morbidly obese, "Fun Sized" was about 2 lbs., and "Snack Sized" you could share with (4) in your tree fort.  Full sized Dad had to carry home in the back of his pickup, and you had to live along a rail siding or shipping port to take delivery of a "Family Sized".  (Okay, maybe I exaggerated just a little bit, but you get the idea).

I just picked up a bag of "Snack" sized Hershey bars, and I have to say I've smuggled shanks into the joint at Joiliet which were bigger than these little things!

Damn glad my brother is outta' that dump!
