We don’t know, what we don’t know… That’s how it is…

I know that’s obvious and redundant, be patient as I attempt to explain that statement.

How do you know that you don’t know something?

Isn’t that the idea of hiding information?

If it’s hidden well, no one knows it; and our government is in the business of hiding things from us, and they do it very, very, very well. In fact, they have a PhD in cover-up – that’s Piled High and Deep…

Are you suspicious, curious because it doesn’t make sense? Do you have the feeling that there’s more to this story, or do you just accept it and move along?

That’s not how it was supposed to be.

The Constitution intended the process to be transparent, but since it’s in the self-serving interests of the elites to control everything, they found ways to circumvent and corrupt it from the very beginning. The ‘built-in’ controls provided enough latitude to allow for adjustments, but the elites found ways to manipulate it. You see, the framers of this brilliant document expected everyone, particularly and specifically, the elected representative, to act honorably for the republic, not for themselves.

… but as the French say… “Se-lä-vē…” That’s life!

If you knew that you didn’t know – then you would know that you don’t know… You would discern that they don’t want you to know something.

That’s my point… You should comprehend that you REALLY don’t know.

I’m not the only person telling you this. There are hundreds of others attempting to open your minds to this disinformation, misinformation, and malinformation – which is conveniently and intentionally veiled, using every distraction available, through the Corporate Media Complex (CMC), because clarity is not in the best interest of the CMC or the government; either currently in power or the one to come. They thrive on secrecy…

Confused?

Here’s the essence of my hypothesis.

Almost everything I’ve seen, heard, and read from the CMC over the past thirty years confirms that we are the uninformed owners of this republic. We mistakenly trust them to provide information necessary for us to be well-informed owners so we can make good decisions. But it’s like renting a house to someone that makes meth (methamphetamine). You rent them the property in good faith, trusting that they will occupy your property responsibly, but they take advantage of your agreement and confidence. I do not infer that the American government is in the drug business (wink, wink) but it would be really, really nice to know what the “EF” is going on in our republic… right?

Oh yea…there’s the caveat of national security. This is a rabbit-hole I may go down in the future, but for now, I’ll stay near the entrance.

How stupid do I look? Don’t answer…

Don’t you think that our enemies already know what our government is hiding?

Seriously…

Our enemies know the information before our government classifies it.

That’s What SPY’S DO!!!!!

I don’t advocate approaching the world with an open kimono – yet. But there are things that we citizens should know about. Maybe if the NASP and other elements of this republic were working in our interests instead of their own, it wouldn’t be necessary to hide so much from the citizenry.

Gee… now there’s an idea… serving the republic instead of themselves…

We’ve been in the dark since we entered WWII. By the end of that conflict, America was on a roll. Not only had we won a world war against insidious and tenacious enemies on two fronts, and on opposite sides of the planet, the government invented new and better ways of hiding information from us. “NATIONAL SECURITY!”

We’d grown accustomed to their clandestine processes, projects, and policies.

No One In America Cared!

Our government’s rationale for secrecy was that most of this information was a matter of national security. Who could argue… We wanted to win this war, so we accepted their reasoning in support of that goal.

We traded liberty for temporary safety and security.

– Note: Once this trade is consummated, the traded liberty is NEVER returned; it was traded, not lent.

We developed the ultimate weapon of that time. And in the midst of all that concealment, there were elements within the Manhattan Project selling top-secret information to our enemies. So much for trust…

We had slogans like… “Loose Lips Sink Ships!” – a warning that our enemies are listening…

Warner Brothers and other animation studios created clever cartoons promoting our need for caution. During WWII, Hollywood preceded all the theatrical movies with an animated short with a patriotic message. These are a great historic review of that period in American history and are available for viewing on the interweb… My favorite is Private Snafu…

There are many others.

We didn’t know much about the war efforts, except what they wanted us to know, and this became the government’s main dodge going forward. It’s the perfect place to hide information they don’t want us to know… So much for trust…

Having been in the military, I appreciate these steps to safeguard information – However… While I was stationed in South Korea in the late 70s, I would frequent street-food vendors who used government-printed personnel transfer orders and troop movement directives to wrap the food… I found a couple orders that referenced me…

Yes, I brought this to the attention of base security, yet I continued to see confidential printed information and directives used as food wrappers.

I have no idea where it went from there…

Probably the most damaging and damning communication sidestep was “Operation Overcast.” The popularized name is “Operation Paperclip.” It was a secret United States Intelligence Program (Intelligence?) in which more than 1,600 German scientists, engineers, and technicians were taken from former Nazi Germany, and brought to America for government employment after the end of World War II in Europe, between 1945–59. Some were former members and leaders of the Nazi Party. Wernher von Braun was a high-ranking Nazi and Allgermeine SS Party member, who became the head and chief architect of the American Space program. (Intelligence?)

Joint Chiefs of Staff officially established Operation Overcast on July 20, 1945, with the dual aim of leveraging German expertise to assist in the ongoing war effort against Japan, and to bolster America’s postwar military research. The operation was conducted by the Joint Intelligence Objectives Agency (JIOA), which was largely carried out by special agents of the U.S. Army’s Counterintelligence Corps (CIC). Scientists taken were often involved in the Nazi rocket program, aviation, chemical and biological warfare.

– Intelligence: They keep using that word… “I do not think it means what you think it means…’ Inconceivable!”

I can’t imagine that US citizens, especially veterans of that war, would appreciate this arrangement after having just faced the Nazis in battle. But then, look what we did to American citizens of Japanese descent… we put them in concentration – sorry – internment camps. Now we’re importing the Nazi scientific brain-trust to America – Are you kidding me?

What could possibly go wrong???

The German scientists and engineers assumed places in our top developmental and manufacturing companies initially. Later, they assumed teaching and professorial positions with top universities where they were allowed to spread seditious Naziism, Totalitarian, and Socialist propaganda to inquisitive impressionable students.

This asinine seeding of American academia with Socialist ideology promoted the disastrous adulteration and dilution of American Patriotism in our colleges and universities that we see today – like promoting genocide to fight genocide… or the laughable idea of replacing our Constitutional Republic with a failed ideology like socialism; yet that appears to be their course.

The socialists taught our children who would in turn, teach others, and from there, it grows exponentially.

Is it any wonder that our republic is leaning to the Left?

How does Socialism or Gender Ideology fit into a math, physics, biology or engineering class?

These are technical subject unassociated with ideology, yet these anti-American doctrines are slipped into the classes regularly, in State-run colleges and universities, especially into the Ivy League Schools – where are future leaders are trained.

Group-think is a very powerful motivator especially amid the demands to conform – peer pressure messaging – and NASP reinforcements from the professorial demigods and other academic demands – like grades, not to mention those from the CMC…

Notice, there are no filters to remove the ‘Bad or Hurtful or Anti-American’ rhetoric from the equation. Education – the act of imparting general knowledge, presupposes that the teacher or professor has the moral and ethical awareness to avoid advancing potentially confusing or harmful doctrines not pertinent to the lessons’ subject matter. In fact, now that these indoctrinators are in place, there is nothing stopping them, or their seditious propaganda.

There are no safeguards. Socialist dogma outsmarts conservative ethics and morals, in favor of Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity (DIE) – Meritocracy, has no place in this new DIE order.

We rarely consider the impact of our decisions.

These ‘indoctrinated’ students enter the work-force, and later assume leadership or teaching positions, where they coach the next generation of Socialist Extremists. We train students to memorize facts, not to understand their importance or how they impact situations.

“Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think.” – Albert Einstein

Our government didn’t see this coming because their focus was on their immediate goal ‘their presumed power’, by beating the Russians in the race to space.

No one considered the long-term ramifications – consequences – of Operation Overcast. They just wanted to win at any cost – and they almost did. Russia still beat America in the race to space… BUT… we were first to the moon… I wonder why no one ever disclosed what kind of cheese it was…

The cost of all these hidden intentions? …the soul of America, and our future.

But then… “The Ends Justify the Means!”

Following this theory through to today.

Were the assumed social and technological gains worth the ideological damage done to our republic?

“One Nation under God, with liberty and justice for all…”

Our government realized that hiding the truth from their constituency provides short-term gains; and since the public is programmed to focus on today, rather than tomorrow, there’s little consequence in these lies. The news-cycle is so short and the refresh time so frequent that cycle is measured in a few hours. No one remembers what happened two days ago, much less two years ago, and god forbid in history.

A key component in this misdirection are their willing accomplices… the Corporate Media Complex (CMC).

This little foray into the fantastic, WWII and the Korean Conflict, caused President Eisenhower to devise the moniker ‘Military Industrial Complex (MIC),’ describing the relationship between the Government, the military, and the businesses that make things for the military. For example, businesses can give money to politicians in elections. Then, politicians give more money to the military. Then, the military buys things from the businesses.

Each group gains something, so they perpetuate the process.

No one in the republic is the wiser…

This is what’s called a symbiotic or interdependent arrangement; often called “One hand washing the other.” The proper name is collusion – a secret understanding between two or more people to gain something illegally. It’s illegal because it often circumvents bidding, and is frequently aided by a congressional member with ‘insider information.’

In modern business it is referred to as a “Win – Win – Win” scenario for the players. Everyone gains, and the cost is passed along to the consumer, in this case the taxpayer; we always get the bill.

It’s easy to lie once you trade your integrity for power.

Remember Benjamin Franklin’s quote:

“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

My latest conspiracy theory…

The Trump assassination attempt was part of the NASP’s plot to maintain their stranglehold of America. There are simply too many inconsistencies and errors for the Secret Service (SS) to foul up this completely. In military parlance – it was FUBAR – Fouled Up Beyond All Recognition. There were too many avoidable errors for this to be anything but scripted, by that I mean done intentionally.

Trump’s head was the target. AR style rifles are not accurate enough to target an ear. They are designed for maximum firepower in a light-weight semi-automatic weapon based on the original Colt AR-15 with the selective fire option removed. .

Decisions were made at the highest levels to provide the illusion of security, but allow NASPs “Patriot” some latitude and potential for success.

Remember Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby from the JFK ordeal? They were CIA plants, and according to the MIC at the time – True American Patriots in its cause to preserve democracy and control of the republic.

That was hidden for 60 years by the Warren Commission’s Report because of the damage that knowledge would do to our Democracy (actually the MIC).

Here we are sixty-years later, oblivious to this attempted coup, riding the wave of other more insidious plots to overthrow our Constitutional Republic, and reform us in the images of Karl Marx… with the elite in control, of course.

The original goal of this republic was Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness… It seems that goal was somehow modified to stratify the republic into classes: the minority – those who have, on the backs of the majority – those who make that possible – the have-nots… We come full circle in the republic. We’re right back where we began 250 years ago.

This is the goal and it’s in plain sight. If you can’t see this, either you’ve been asleep, or this is what you believe is best for the republic. You are entitled to your opinion, but so are the rest of us… and this is one of the times when the First Amendment is critically important. We must be free to express and share our thoughts without fear of reprisal before we transform into Venezuela, or Zimbabwe… But our ability and access to our elected representatives is even more important. They are OUR representation to the government, not agents of self-promotion.

They work for us, not the other way around.

They do as we direct, not as their partisan overlords require.

We have a President ‘in absentia’ – physically and mentally. What is the NASP hiding from the republic? All China Joes appearances make the world attentive, our enemies eager, his staffers terrorized, and his communications team ‘on alert’ with their correction-pens to reinterpret his latest gaffs, anxiously scribbling to make sense of his mumbles.

He’s either cognitively absent, or a raging eccentric with his finger poised on the Armageddon button – if he can find it… We all pray that it’s nowhere near the “attendant call-button…”

The most powerful person in the world can’t even find his way home.

America governing is done is secret, between a few elected officials and too may political appointees who decide the fate of our republic. Their primary concern is re-election and self-preservation in a world hidden from view. They’ve fully closed the curtain so the owners can’t see. Trust is a worn-out ancient concept like honor and integrity.

These ideas were all part of the barter for safety and security, all mutable ideals in the empty political promises in their sales-pitch. Like a pie crust… easily made, and easily broken.

I just can’t understand how anyone can see the centuries of chaos caused by foolish choices and think it will be different this time. It’s the definition of insanity… “Doing the same things, the same way, expecting different results.”

We’re constantly assured that things will change, or that they have changed.

Maybe we just never knew the truth.

Maybe America never changed at all.

Maybe they hid that tidbit of wisdom, too.

I’m just an ordinary citizen and I found it…

~ The Author ~
Charles R. Dickens was born in 1951, is a veteran of the Vietnam war, for which he volunteered, and the great-great grandson of the noted author, whose name he shares.

He is a fiercely proud American, who still believes this is the greatest country on the planet, with which we’ve lost control and certainly our direction. He grew up in moderate financial surrounding; we’re not rich by any stretch, but didn’t go hungry – his incredibly hard working father saw to that. As most from that era, he learned about life from his father, whose story would take too long to tell, other than to say that, he is also a fiercely proud American; a WWII and Korean war, veteran Marine.

Charlie was educated in the parochial system which, demanded that you actually learn something, and have capability to retain it before you advance. He attended several universities in pursuit of a bachelor’s degree, and chased the goose further to a master’s, and has retained some very definite ideas about education in this country.

In addition, Charlie is a retired blues guitar and vocalist – a musician. This was his therapy career. Nothing brings him as much joy as playing music, and he wishes that he could make a living at it… but alas… life goes on!
