#HappeningNow: #FBI Director Wray joins @TheJusticeDept in announcing a national security action involving China. justice.gov/live.
Director Wray: As evidenced by this investigation, the threats we face have never been more pervasive or more potentially damaging to our national security. No country poses a broader, more severe, & long-term threat to our nation’s economy & cyber infrastructure than China.
Director Wray: China’s goal, simply put, is to replace the U.S. as the world’s leading superpower – and they’re using illegal methods to get there.

JFK Jr Told the Whole World Who Murdered His Father, But No One Was Listening ... by Jane Grey #QAnon
“Some thought he was afraid to go into politics because of the “Kennedy (wakeupkiwi.com/secret-societi…) Curse.” However, nothing could be further from the truth. What he did proved to be more dangerous than any political arena, and he knew that from the start. “ #QAnon

While U.S. CIA involvement in experiments with mind¬altering drugs in the 1950s & 1960s was made public in Rockefeller Commission hearings 1975, emphasis upon abuses by U. S. intelligence agencies, eliminated the crucial role of Britain’s Tavistock Institute.

#MKultra
Tavistock played a crucial role during the Second World War in Anglo-Soviet intelligence operations called the British Occult Bureau. This included occultists Aleister Crowley, Dennis Wheatley, contact with Heinrich Himmler’s astrologer, & occultists in Hitler’s immediate circle
Tavistock ran a number of psychological profiles not only of political leaders and would-be leaders, but of entire populations. It was also involved in intensive studies of brainwashing. A leader in this field was the psychiatrist R. D. Laing, who worked out of Tavistock.

He recalled placing fifth.

A few months later, Presley received his first guitar for his birthday; he had hoped for something else—by different accounts, either a bicycle or a rifle.
Over the following year, he received basic guitar lessons from two of his uncles and the new pastor at the family's church. Presley recalled, "I took the guitar, and I watched people, and I learned to play a little bit. But I would never sing in public. I was very shy about it."
In September 1946, Presley entered a new school, Milam, for sixth grade. The following year, he began bringing his guitar to school on a daily basis.

He played and sang during lunchtime, and was often teased as a "trashy" kid who played hillbilly music.

1. Speculative MEGA thread on the SC:

This thread is meant as an analysis of what we have come to learn through observing reports, digging into court docs, and analyzing timelines. It is meant as a deeper look into how events, people, and things mesh together.
2. Everything that follows this, is if nothing else, a firm reminder that the media DOES NOT tell us the whole story, and often times, DO NOT HAVE the full story. Am I 100% positive what follows is what is actually happening?
3. No. But I will make a strong, sourced, well researched case for you. It may leave you tossing and turning, and may spur you to add your own work and look at things a little differently. I have spent the past year (with several others) going over this investigation--

today would've been the 69th birthday of fred hampton, a black american activist i greatly admire. he was murdered 48 years ago by the FBI.
what made the 21 year old hampton so threatening to the FBI that they would wage a war against him was his belief in racial solidarity.
fred hampton believed that only by bringing together marginalized people of ALL races could we defeat oppression.
