CODE PINK: CALL OFF WORLD WAR III
Tell the Biden administration to call off #NATO-backed strikes inside Russia, stop arming #Ukraine and support a ceasefire before a WORLD WAR breaks out between nuclear powers.
We understand the United States and United Kingdom are ready to announce that they will be lifting restrictions on Ukraine's use of NATO weapons, allowing them to be used to strike deep inside Russia, according to the Guardian and Politico. This news follows former State Department official VictoriaNuland’s admission the US torpedoed a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia a month after Russia invaded Ukraine.
We demand the Biden administration reverse course: call off NATO-backed strikes inside Russia, stop arming Ukraine and support a ceasefire before another world war breaks out.
The Guardian reports, “British government sources indicated that a decision had already been made to allow Ukraine to use Storm Shadow cruise missiles on targets inside Russia.” The missiles will be launched from Ukraine but targeted and guided by NATO technicians. In response, Putin says long-rangearms for Ukraine will mean “NATO countries are at war with Russia.”
We demand the Biden administration pursue a diplomatic resolution to the war in Ukraine, call off NATO-supplied missiles striking inside Russia and avert World War III between nuclear powers.
We want Vice President Kamala Harris to know that we do not support her bellicose pledges to continue the war in Ukraine, nor her warmongering words at the DNC when she promised to ensure America always has the “strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world.” The world has suffered enough at the hands of US lies and violence.
In the words of Anatoly Antonov, the Russian Ambassador to the US, Washington "continues to test the limits of our tolerance for hostile steps" and is "paving the way to World War III.”
STOP. Seek a diplomatic resolution now–before it’s too late.
Sincerely,

POST ELECTION TRUTHS
'Post-Election Truths: The Things That Won’t Change (No Matter Who Wins)
By John W. Whitehead | Nov 5, 2024
“If voting could ever really change anything, it’d be illegal.” — Thorne, Land of the Blind (2006)
After months of handwringing and mud-slinging and fear-mongering, the votes have finally been cast and the outcome has been decided: the Deep State has won.
Despite the billions spent to create the illusion of choice culminating in the reassurance ritual of voting for Donald Trump or Kamala Harris, when it comes to most of the big issues that keep us in bondage to authoritarian overlords, not much will change.
Despite all of the work that has been done to persuade us to buy into the fantasy that things will change if we just elect the “right” political savior, the day after a new president is sworn in, it will be business as usual for the unelected bureaucracy that actually runs the government.
War will continue. Drone killings will continue. Surveillance will continue. Censorship of anyone who criticizes the government will continue. The government’s efforts to label dissidents as extremists and terrorists will continue. Police shootings will continue. SWAT team raids will continue. Highway robbery meted out by government officials will continue. Corrupt government will continue. Profit-driven prisons will continue. And the militarization of the police will continue.
These problems have persisted — and in many cases flourished — under both Republican and Democratic administrations in recent years.
The outcome of this year’s election changes none of that.
Indeed, take a look at the programs and policies that will not be affected by the 2024 presidential election, and you’ll get a clearer sense of the government’s priorities, which have little to do with representing the taxpayers and everything to do with amassing money, power and control.
The undermining of the Constitution will continue unabated. America’s so-called war on terror, which it has relentlessly pursued since 9/11, has chipped away at our freedoms, unraveled our Constitution and transformed our nation into a battlefield, thanks in large part to such subversive legislation as the USA Patriot Act and National Defense Authorization Act. These laws — which completely circumvent the rule of law and the constitutional rights of American citizens, re-orienting our legal landscape in such a way as to ensure that martial law, rather than the rule of law, our U.S. Constitution, becomes the map by which we navigate life in the United States — will continue to be enforced.
The government’s war on the American people will continue unabated. “We the people” are no longer shielded by the rule of law. While the First Amendment — which gives us a voice — is being muzzled, the Fourth Amendment — which protects us from being bullied, badgered, beaten, broken and spied on by government agents — is being disemboweled. Consequently, you no longer have to be poor, black or guilty to be treated like a criminal in America. All that is required is that you belong to the suspect class — that is, the citizenry — of the American police state. As a de facto member of this so-called criminal class, every U.S. citizen is now guilty until proven innocent. The oppression and injustice — be it in the form of shootings, surveillance, fines, asset forfeiture, prison terms, roadside searches, and so on — will come to all of us eventually unless we do something to stop it now.
The shadow government — a.k.a. the Deep State, a.k.a. the police state, a.k.a. the military industrial complex, a.k.a. the surveillance state complex — will continue unabated. The corporatized, militarized, entrenched bureaucracy that is fully operational and staffed by unelected officials will continue to call the shots in Washington DC, no matter who sits in the White House or controls Congress. By “government,” I’m not referring to the highly partisan, two-party bureaucracy of the Republicans and Democrats. Rather, I’m referring to “government” with a capital “G,” the entrenched Deep State that is unaffected by elections, unaltered by populist movements, and has set itself beyond the reach of the law.
The government’s manipulation of national crises in order to expand its powers will continue unabated. “We the people” have been subjected to an “emergency state” that justifies all manner of government tyranny and power grabs in the so-called name of national security. Whatever the so-called threat to the nation, the government has a tendency to capitalize on the nation’s heightened emotions, confusion and fear as a means of extending the reach of the police state. Indeed, the government’s answer to every problem continues to be more government — at taxpayer expense — and less individual liberty.
Endless wars that enrich the military industrial complex will continue unabated. America’s expanding military empire is bleeding the country dry at a rate of more than $93 million an hour (that adds up to $920 billion annually). Incredibly, although the U.S. constitutes only 5% of the world’s population, America boasts almost 40% of the world’s total military expenditure, spending more on the military than the next 9 biggest spending nations combined.
Government corruption will continue unabated. The government is not our friend. Nor does it work for “we the people.” Americans instinctively understand this. When asked to name the greatest problem facing the nation, Americans of all political stripes ranked the government as the number one concern. In fact, almost three-quarters of Americans surveyed believe the government is corrupt. Our so-called government representatives do not actually represent us, the citizenry. We are now ruled by an oligarchic elite of governmental and corporate interests whose main interest is in perpetuating power and control.
Government tyranny under the reign of an Imperial President will continue unabated. The Constitution invests the President with very specific, limited powers. In recent years, however, American presidents have anointed themselves with the power to wage war, unilaterally kill Americans, torture prisoners, strip citizens of their rights, arrest and detain citizens indefinitely, carry out warrantless spying on Americans, and erect their own secretive, shadow government. The powers amassed by each past president and inherited by each successive president — powers which add up to a toolbox of terror for an imperial ruler — empower whoever occupies the Oval Office to act as a dictator, above the law and beyond any real accountability.
The grim reality we must come to terms with is the fact that the U.S. government has become a greater menace to the life, liberty and property of its citizens than any of the so-called dangers from which the government claims to protect us.
As I make clear in my book Battlefield America: The War on the American People and in its fictional counterpart The Erik Blair Diaries, this state of affairs has become the status quo, no matter which party is in power.

Deep State Provoking War Worldwide
As I have said repeatedly, there is only one party in Washington, D.C., and it’s the War Party. Some people call it the Uniparty. There are two issues that most D.C. Democrats and Republicans will always agree on: War and Israel, but then I repeat myself.
It was the United States, not Russia, that started the war in Ukraine back in 2014. It’s not the intent of this column to go into the details of this issue, but notable freedomists such as Judge Andrew Napolitano, Col. Douglas Macgregor, Clayton Morris, Professor Jeffrey Sachs, former British diplomat Alastair Crooke, former Marine Corps Intelligence Officer (Major) and former Chief U.N. Weapons Inspector Scott Ritter, former CIA Analyst Larry Johnson and several others have detailed Washington’s nefarious and deliberate provocations of Russia in Ukraine over the last ten years.
Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky is nothing more than a U.S. puppet. He doesn’t give a hoot in Hades about the Ukrainian people. They are being slaughtered en masse, but Zelensky keeps using his people as cannon fodder anyway. Ukraine is doomed. If Putin wanted to, he could conquer Ukraine before the November elections. The death toll among the Ukrainian population is staggering. Zelensky has already sent young people and prisoners to the battlefield, and now he wants to send old men. And Zelensky is not even president anymore. His term of office expired, and he refused to hold an election. Only a U.S. puppet president could get away with that.
The United States is giving him billions of dollars in CASH to keep its proxy war against Russia going. We also send billions in CASH to Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu. But D.C. is pushing hard to remove cash from the American people. Think about that.
Biden and Harris and the War Party in Congress will fight their proxy war to the last Ukrainian.
It is the Deep State in Washington, D.C., that is doing everything it can to provoke Russia into war with the West. And if they succeed, a nuclear war with Russia would be a war with the country that has the most nuclear warheads of any country in the world.
Then there is the world’s most notable warmonger, Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu, who is committing ethnic cleansing and genocide in Gaza. Netanyahu is a top-tier Deep State asset. In addition to Gaza, Netanyahu is attacking the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria and Iran.
Along with Russia, the Deep State is doing everything it can to provoke Iran into a war with the West. But Iran’s leaders are not stupid; neither are they impulsive. They know that time is on their side—not Israel’s.
As I wrote last week in this column, if Israel continues its warmongering ways, its collapse might not be far away. Israel’s economy is in tatters. Hundreds of thousands of Israelis marched in the streets last weekend demanding a ceasefire agreement. The largest labor union in Israel called for a national strike—which is almost unprecedented. Tourism (one of Israel's largest industries) is non-existent. Airlines refuse to fly into Israel. The flow of goods into Israel is only a shadow of what it was (except for the delivery of U.S. bombs and missiles every week). Israelis are fleeing the country by the hundreds of thousands—maybe millions.
Netanyahu believes that his only chance for his personal survival is to provoke Iran into all-out war and force the United States to come to Israel’s defense. And he is the Deep State’s main man in the Middle East, so it is doing all it can to help Netanyahu succeed.
Think about this, folks: If Netanyahu succeeds in provoking Iran into an all-out war, Israel would positively be destroyed, and if the United States came full force to Israel’s defense, it would become a global war with both Russia and China. And that would mean a full-scale nuclear war, which would doubtless annihilate all of the countries involved—including America. It would also mean the almost total shutdown of the distribution of oil coming out of the Middle East. Think about what that would mean for the West.
All of this for the sake of an antichrist, apartheid state about the size of New Jersey.
But most evangelicals are actually salivating over the possibility of a global nuclear war over Israel, as they believe that will signal the “Rapture,” and they will be taken to Heaven. Therefore, in truth, evangelicals are NOT supporting Israel; they are using Israel to take them to the “Rapture.” Of course, there is no “Rapture,” and these deluded evangelicals will endure the consequences of this global incineration along with everyone else.
But I digress.
So, we have the Deep State provoking potential nuclear war with Russia in Europe, provoking potential nuclear war with the world’s major powers, including the U.S., Russia and China, in the Middle East, and now D.C. decides to provoke Venezuela into open hostilities.
While Joe Biden was sunbathing on the beach over the Labor Day weekend, D.C. seized Venezuela’s equivalent of its Air Force One jetliner.
Jared Yanis posted a short video with the report of the U.S. seizing Venezuela’s presidential jet. Venezuela’s president Nicolas Maduro was not on the plane when it was seized.
Now, I have zero empathy for the thuggish dictator Maduro, but here goes D.C. again trying to provoke another country into a conflagration.
Do you think it is a coincidence that we are hearing reports of violent Venezuelan gangs operating in the United States at the same time that D.C. decides to seize the Venezuelan version of Air Force One?
Biden’s criminal policy to not just allow but also finance and facilitate tens of millions of illegals into the United States (using primarily an Israeli NGO called Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society that receives hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars—in CASH) includes thousands of gang members from Venezuela. Many of these gang members were released from prison by Maduro and sent to Biden’s open arms in America. These are ruthless, violent men who are now roaming the streets and bringing their violent criminal behavior to U.S. cities.
I’m sure most people reading this column are already aware of the criminal activities of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua in Denver, Colorado, and surrounding cities, such as Aurora.
Here is a FOX News report out of Aurora:
Mayor Mike Coffman announced on Friday that the city is starting the process of clearing the apartment buildings where transnational armed gang Tren de Aragua has taken over.
In a statement posted to Facebook, Coffman shared "the Aurora City Attorney's Office is preparing court documents to request an emergency court order to clear the apartment buildings where Venezuelan gang activity has been occurring by declaring the properties a ‘Criminal Nuisance.’"
"This will require a municipal judge to issue the order with the goal of getting these properties back under the control of the property owners. In the meantime, the law enforcement task force set up to disrupt and arrest Venezuelan gang members in these buildings will continue its operation. I strongly believe that the best course of action is to shut these building[s] down and make sure that this never happens again," concluded Coffman.
One has already been picked up. In an email to Fox News Digital, Aurora Police Department confirmed that Tren de Aragua leader "Cookie Monster" is currently in custody in relation to a shooting on July 28.
Fox 31 reports that the men seen in the video that has gone viral are armed members of the Tren de Aragua gang, according to Department of Homeland Security sources.
It took a courageous city councilwoman by the name of Danielle Jurinsky to blow the lid off by publicly reporting the criminal activity of the Venezuelan gang taking place in her city. The pro-illegal invasion governor of Colorado, Jared Polis, said the gang violence was "largely a feature of Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination."
As you know, Denver is a sanctuary city.
And here is a brief video regarding the safety precautions that churches in the Denver area need to take to protect themselves from potential violence from this Venezuelan gang.
Former Border Patrol Agent in Charge J. J. Carrell has meticulously described the Venezuelan gang activity in Chicago, Illinois. We have also heard numerous reports of Venezuelan gang activity in New York City.
So, now that the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua has thousands of gang members living and operating in U.S. cities, the Deep State decides to seize the Venezuelan president’s jet. Just a coincidence, right?
U.S. government officials said that seizing Venezuela’s Air Force One was sending a signal that “no one is above the law.”
What a crock! Washington, D.C., is loaded with lawbreakers, and I don’t mean the ones walking the streets. I’m talking about the ones sitting in Congress and the White House. That's where the real criminal activity is taking place.
What the Deep State did was wave a bull fighter’s red muleta in front of a bull. It is provoking the Venezuelan gang members in the U.S. into violence against the American people—as if they needed any provocation.
Once again, the Deep State is doing what it does best: provoking war all over the world and even within our own country.
And there is one more thing the Deep State does well, and that’s selecting the president and most members of Congress.
You still don’t know who they are?
