Journalistic Deceit: An Example Of Why You Can't Trust The News Media.

I was looking at the website for channel 45 news, a local ABC affiliate in Winston Salem NC, when I saw a story in the "Trending" column headlined "Iranian news outlet reports over 36,000 killed in protests, marking historic bloodshed". I've been following reports on the protests since they began, and the number of deaths from the protests has generally been counted in the low thousands, not tens of thousands. So I read further in the story to learn what ABC 45 knew that others didn't. 

The story said "Iranian news site, Iran International, reported on Sunday that over 36,000 people have been killed during the height of the protests that took place earlier this month". There was no explanation of who Iran International is, but at first I assumed it's a news agency within Iran. But if so, why were they reporting ten times more deaths than the Iranian government? I did some digging and found that Iran International is owned by Volant Media, a company based in the United Kingdom. Volant Media doesn't reveal their ownership. But according to Wikipedia, it is "reportedly linked to Saudi Arabia, [and] it (Iran International) is aimed at Iranians and people interested in Iranian news, culture, politics, society and sports. Iran International has been heavily criticized by the Iranian government for actively encouraging Iranians into anti-government protests and riots by spreading fake news and propaganda and has been described as a tool of Mossad by Barak Ravid. During the Mahsa Amini protests on 9 November 2022, the Iranian Minister of Intelligence Ismail Khatib announced that Iran International had been declared a terrorist organization by the Islamic Republic of Iran, accused of inciting riots protesting the government."

"According to Middle East Eye, Iran International is a media platform for the Iranian opposition. The channel is known for raising the profile of Reza Pahlavi, the last heir apparent to the former Iranian throne, by constant coverage and repeatedly interviewing him."

Reza Pahlavi is the eldest son of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last shah of Iran who eventually became a bribed puppet of the CIA.

It seems apparent that Iran International is essentially a propaganda agency posing as a legitimate news source. And I suspect if its true ownership could be discovered, we'd see funding from America's CIA, the United Kingdom's MI6, and Israel's Mossad.

We should question why ABC 45, owned by Sinclair Broadcasting, would use a source as obviously biased as Iran International. But they aren't alone. Zionist slop-site 'Breitbart' is also quoting them.

Yes, the same number of victims is repeated by Breitbart, and the source of that number is Iran International. Initially, Breitbart also reported that Khamenei had fled to a fortified bunker, but they've since removed that part of the story. But another news site still makes the claim: The Times of Israel.

They write: "Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has gone into hiding in a Tehran bunker, according to the opposition-affiliated Iran International news site". The news site 'India Today' also made the claim, and also gave credit to Iran International as their source. So in one day we have at least four news sites (and probably hundreds more if you count all the stations owned by Sinclair) that published unverified information portraying the leaders of Iran as horrible murderers.

The point of my post isn't to take sides either for or against Iran. The point is that what at first appears to be a legitimate news article on a local television station's website is in reality a biased story from a sketchy source that seems to have an agenda. And this same source is also being used by other news sites around the world.

The average reader doesn't have the time to find out where their news is coming from. Most find sites they like and then trust they're being told the truth.

But as I've revealed here, when you scratch beneath the surface you often find that what you thought was journalism is actually manipulation.

My Favorite Social Media Posts To Start 2026.

Notes From Clown World: December 26, 2025.

It's been a while since I posted the last "Notes From Clown World". So much has happened in 2025 that I couldn't keep up with it all. And much of it was so toxic I chose to pivot away from my blog for a while rather than examine the ugliness that seems to be everywhere now. But with Christmas behind me I had a quiet night to scroll through the news and a few hundred posts on Telegram, and here's some of the madness that I found:

The Jeffrey Epstein scandal continues to dominate the news. I find it all very interesting but at the same time I don't expect the crime syndicate controlling our federal government to actually open up the files and disclose the truth. President Trump and his lap-girl Pam Bondi are still dancing around the subject, claiming they have the files, then saying there are no files, and finishing with "it's a scam from the Democrats". Although some files have now been released to the public, what we've been given are photos with no context and documents that are almost completely blacked out.

Epstein was obviously a bad character, most likely working for Mossad and the CIA, and his operation trapped hundreds of politicians, corporate leaders, and celebrities in a web of pedophilia, sex trafficking, sick rituals, and the lust for power, and the web was enforced by blackmail and extortion. We don't know the names of every person involved, but some have speculated that the operation was so large and included so many famous people that the truth could bring down governments and institutions. 

Was Trump involved in the crimes, or is he merely protecting the system that allowed it all to happen? Obviously I can't say yet, but Trump's behavior, especially his hateful comments toward Thomas Massie, does nothing to support his case. The more he talks, the guiltier he looks. 

What makes it all worse is the delusional behavior on social media, with the MAGA cult siding with Trump no matter what evidence is produced, and the radical left refusing to believe that any Democrat could possibly be a part of the scandal. 

Clown world indeed.

Gangsta's be rollin'.

In addition to the Epstein scandal, it's not looking good for Trump with reference to his numerous pardons. Geopolitics Prime recently reported on how several of his pardons were for people connected to what some call the "Jewish Mafia":

From Geopolitics Prime:

"Connecting the dots: Trump keeps pardoning healthcare fraudsters linked to this one pro-Israel sect.

The president has made a mockery of his MAHA agenda by handing out clemency to healthcare execs responsible for costly and sometimes deadly criminal schemes.

See if you can spot a pattern:

🔴 Philip Esformes: Nursing home mogul behind what the DoJ says was the “largest health care fraud scheme” ever prosecuted, convicted in 2019 on a $1.3B fraud, bribery and money laundering scheme, including the drugging of patients with oxycontin and fentanyl to extend their stay at his facilities.

Got 20 years, but pardoned by Trump in late 2020 on the recommendation of Jared Kushner and the Chabad-Lubavitch movement-linked Aleph Institute. Rearrested for domestic violence in late 2024. Case dropped a month later.

🔴 Sholam Weiss: Racketeer, money launderer and wire fraudster who siphoned $450M from the National Heritage Life Insurance Company in the 90s. Slapped with an 845-year prison sentence, which he tried to evade by fleeing to Europe.

Pardoned by Trump in 2021. Also linked to Chabad.

🔴 Salomon Melgen: Got 17 years in prison in 2017 over a $42M fraud scheme involving unnecessary eye surgeries using Medicare. Sentence commuted by Trump in 2021, even though Melgen was a Democrat megadonor.

Pardon lobbied for by the Aleph Institute.

🔴 Daniela Gozes-Wagner: convicted on a $50M fraud scheme in 2017, sentenced to 10 years. Trump commuted her sentence in 2020.

Why? You guessed it, Aleph Institute lobbying.

🔴 Eliyahu Weinstein: Convicted to 24 years for real estate fraud targeting his own Orthodox Jewish community in Lakewood, NJ. Sentence commuted by Trump in 2021. Weinstein immediately returned to fraud, this time involving medical supplies. Handed a new 37-year sentence in November 2025.

Will he be freed again? Watch this space.

WaPo (Washington Post) says 27 of the 238 people granted clemency by Trump 1.0 were linked to the Aleph Institute, its Tzedek Association sister agency, and other lobbyists working with them.

At least Biden had the autopen. What’s Trump’s excuse?"

"We've basically been desensitized to the fact that our rulers are evil deviants. At this point, they tell us what they're doing to rub it in our faces because they know we'll do nothing." -- Nick Hudson

Finally for this installment of Clown World, I found this article about chemtrails published in Rolling Stone magazine. Rolling Stone used to be focused on the music industry, but these days it's more of a leftist-flavored propaganda site owned by the ruling elite. The article is behind a paywall, and I'm not willing to pay for garbage, but the cover image gives you a pretty good idea of what they're trying to convince us of. 

Obviously your first question should be, "why is a music magazine talking about chemtrails?". 

Chemtrails, also called "geoengineering", have gone from being a fringe conspiracy theory to accepted fact, with extensive research proving that something other than contrails are being sprayed out of aircraft on an almost daily basis. It's actually funny, in a tragic sort of way, that anyone could look up and see all the narrow white streaks crisscrossing the sky that expand into wide bands and later become a blanket of gray clouds as far as one can see, and think, "that's totally normal". 

I don't claim to know what the purpose of the chemtrail program is. It could be a mad attempt to block the sun and cool the planet, or it could be the poisoning of humanity to create disease and cull the population. Or maybe it's something else entirely. But whatever it is, Rolling Stone doesn't want you to think about it too much. Just accept what they say and go back to sleep.

As we close out 2025 I implore all of you to stay vigilant, informed, and energized. 2026 is predicted to be even more chaotic as the ruling elites try to hide their crimes and tighten their grip on humanity.

We're rapidly becoming inhabitants of a global slave colony and no one is coming to save us. It's up to us to stop the mad men in their tracks, bring them to justice, and restore our God-given freedom.

Don't Trust The Beast System.

Don't trust the beast system.

Whatever you do, stay away from their shots, digital ID, and AI agenda.

The Truth Must Be Spoken.

Israel claimed the world is antisemitic. 

Then it killed 680,000 Semitic people.

(and American politicians cheered)

Wanted For Committing Crimes Against Humanity.

Arrest Benjamin Netanyahu (real name: Mileikowsky) for numerous crimes against humanity, including terrorism, illegal military attacks and wars, medical experimentation on his own citizens, lying to the world community, assassinations, and the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

On November 21, 2024 the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued a warrant for Netanyahu's arrest. He has been formally charged with war crimes and crimes against humanity, being "allegedly responsible for the war crimes of starvation as a method of warfare and of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts from at least 8 October 2023 until at least 20 May 2024."

He remains at large, protected from arrest by President Donald Trump of the United States, who has threatened any nation which pursues justice against Netanyahu. This makes Trump an accomplice to Netanyahu's crimes, and he should be charged and arrested as such.

Justice only works when it's evenly applied to everyone.
