The financial world you know (JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, your local credit union) has a hidden counterpart. It’s a $65 trillion network called shadow banking, larger than traditional banking and critical to the global economy. In 2008, when this system faltered, it nearly brought down everything. Most people still don’t know it exists, yet […]
Projection is a term rooted in psychology that describes the act of attributing one’s own undesirable traits, motives, or actions to others. While it often occurs subconsciously in personal relationships, projection can also be wielded strategically, particularly in politics and propaganda, as a way to deflect attention and control narratives. When those in power use this […]
When someone insists, “There’s no way the government could keep something like that a secret,” regardless of what “that” might be, they are making a claim that simply collapses under even the slightest scrutiny. To believe such nonsense is to ignore both distant and recent history… and logic. Government secrecy is not only a very […]
As promised in my article on Active Measures, I am writing you an article about Reflexive Control. This is a very important topic that revolves around security and cognitive behavior manipulation. This combination makes it exceptionally difficult to get great information because the overlap is sometimes hard to navigate. Hence, this is why I think […]
Throughout history, nations have employed various strategies to manipulate perceptions, sow discord, and shape the ideological landscape of adversaries. The United States is not immune. This is evidenced by the immense division we have experienced in recent years. Of course, the word “psyop” has been of particular interest to Americans, with the volume of monthly […]
In 2009, I published An American Warning, a poorly written book (I wasn’t the best writer back then—or now) that outlined a forecast of emerging global threats and the dangers they pose to Americans. This was followed up with another book in 2014, Reloaded: An American Warning, which was a stronger warning about how rapidly […]
A reader recently emailed me with an insightful question: “Why does the Right always seem to be on the defensive? Also, why are conservatives, libertarians, and other ideological dissenters constantly forced to justify themselves against accusations rather than setting the terms of debate?” That’s a sharp observation, and while the answer isn’t simple, it definitely […]
Throughout history, society has faced the persistent threat of corruption, oppression, and tyranny. Many assume these dangers stem from malevolent individuals acting with intent. In fact, you were probably taught this much in school. However, what you likely weren’t taught in school is how stupidity, either individually or of the masses, may be one of the […]
A recent conversation with a friend compelled me to write this article. I want to share with you what I told him about corruption and oversight. Look, the “machine” wants you to believe that the real issue with recent government audits and investigations isn’t about corruption or incompetence—it’s procedural overreach. The argument goes like this: […]
I received a great email from a reader who asked a series of rather profound questions. I thought it might make a great article. The email read, “Dr. Dave! I read your article on the collusion of power. Great article! But I’ve done some research on the matter, and unfortunately, I continually find conflicting information. […]
