Many weight loss, get rich, cancer cures, and even Trump multi level pitches are all the same con run on the same demos by the same people. Welcome anti-vaxxers to the multi level marketing fleece. This guy also sold home cancer cures. h/t @WendySiegelmanapnews.com/article/anti-v…
"The 31-Day Home Cancer Cure. This simple, at-home protocol is helping stage 4 cancer patients recover in as little as 31 days. My name is Ty Bollinger. I knew hardly anything about cancer until it killed seven members of my family," amazon.com/31-Day-Home-Ca…
There is a fascinating correlation between the Trumpundits and odd products. infowarsstore.com
There are also real products. Gold is a popular. Rudy pimps cigars. Jim Bakker has food buckets. I mean somebody must have money on real estate in the late 2000's right?... No? “Requesting we raise our credit limits... seemed a little transparent.” americanprogress.org/issues/educati…
Multi Level Marketing promises quick wealth and easy success but here is also a vibe of desperation. A search for a magic cure or solution to something that normally requires skill, hard work and time. Something that some politicians get instantly. slate.com/business/2015/…
These days political campaigning and promises are mostly via media, online and via direct response. Like politicians some people bought in to the sales hype and were deeply disappointed. They felt they were lied to and didn't get what they expected. boredpanda.com/funny-online-s…
This doc is on multi level marketing and the cult like vibe they set off. You might notice a lot of similarities.
Trump was no stranger to MLM and the manipulative economics of selling false hope to desperate people. But he desperate for money huckster only made a ten's of million over ten years. There was a much bigger con. Called politics, with hundreds of millions. forbes.com/sites/lisettev…
JForget the foreign money Trump, his family and minions have pocketed or even the old school Dark Pattern marketing tricks. Just one scheme alone has grossed half a billion. The Stolen Election Scam. Right out in front of everyone. nbcnews.com/politics/meet-…
Just politics you say. No. Buying into the Stolen Election Scam is a miracle scientific discovery that will change your life like a diet pill, real estate course or MLM. It requires people to spread the word and sells products proven unsafe and dangerous. washingtonpost.com/investigations…
So if you have any doubt that the Stolen Election Scam isn't just the latest way to line the Drumpf's pockets. Caveat Emptor: reuters.com/article/us-usa…
Punchline: "In early November, they co-authored a post about "voter fraud and election meddling" for the website of political operative Roger Stone, who has taken credit for coining the phrase "Stop the Steal" to help then-candidate Donald Trump in 2016." cnn.com/2021/02/04/pol…

Anyone getting Afghan deja vu? Dostum is the Afghan leader who defeated the taliban. Not Masood. The Panjshiris waited until the surrender to advance. nytimes.com/2021/05/14/wor…
I set up AfPax, a ground network of 1200 people because......there was no reliable source of ground information in Afghanistan and the tribal areas. The interesting thing was that the US agenda built the corrupt centralized system that the taliban are destroying.
It's like we have no institutional memory of how things get done and when to leave.
I guess Melissa Carone, Anna Khait and Tarah Price all wanted to be famous . "Explore Talent" should be renamed. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9…
Melissa starred in a popular video.
Tarah wrote a cool story "Do you think it is strange that a Chinese sex spy reportedly infiltrating American politics isn't front-page news? muckrack.com/tarah-price/ar…
The Prince of Fuckery is known for two things. Pitching Dr Evil PowerPoints to assholes and 2) fucking them up so badly you swear it was a script for comedy caper flick . And I suppose 3) ending up on the front page of the New York Times nytimes.com/2021/05/13/us/…
Now I say "caper film" because even the secret spy at mommy's ranch in Wyoming said Veritas was too stupid to train, or funnier, British kinda of insult words to that effect. splinternews.com/project-verita…
Goldman and Mazzetti kinda forgot that McMaster, Mattis and others were blocking Erik's mercenary/robber baron dream of killing/looting Afghans with his version of the Flying Tigers, East India Company, Rambo, Marshall Plan and Army in a Box toys. reuters.com/article/us-war…
“Here's the net worth each generation says you need to be considered wealthy in 2021:
Millennials (ages 24 to 39): $1.4 million
Gen X (ages 44 to 55): $1.9 million
Baby boomers (ages 56 to 74): $2.5 million” apple.news/Acs0df7F9SHiqt…
a dollar in 2001 is now $1.5 today. And we are about to feel the Krazy Kovid Krash. So maybe double those dream numbers? kiplinger.com/economic-forec…
What the rich worry about. War and the impact of wealth inequality ain't at top of their list. Download: elliman.com/resources/site…
Social media must have doubled in size over the last week. Mostly with those nicely designed factoids and Joe Q Public posts repeating hashtags and identical talking points. No mention about Israel creating Hamas tho. theintercept.com/2018/02/19/ham…
Israel does a good job of flooding all avenues of media to block out competitive or non-structured content. That has nothing to do with the actual conflict its just an expertise on working the media to define the narrative early. A good study in PR. huffpost.com/entry/how-isra…
Regardless of the content the narrative continues.
But wait...there's more. ASOG's Texas Nexus is part of the old Lincoln Group posse (the Iraq Disinformation crowd) that includes Mrs Joe Burkett and former and current Flynn and Rudy fuckery folks. Faux Antifa in the house. thedailybeast.com/lara-logan-the…
