January 28, 2021 MORN Update: The Guardian reports that Enrique Tarrio, “Proud Boys” leader peripherally involved in January 6 DC “insurrection,” is also an FBI ‘informant.’ Surprise!

January 27, 2021 MORN Update: Take a look at H.R. 1, reputedly the first legislation the DEMS will introduce in the US Congress. Read the bill closely.

January 25, 2021 EVE Update: UK’s Rebel Wisdom brings on three ‘experts’ on “Conspirituality” to explore the Q-ANON phenomenon, using “Chewbacca Jake the Horned Viking Shaman” as a jumping off point. Fascinating deep dive.

January 23, 2021 MORN update: Thanks to NYC New York University Media/Propaganda Professor Dr. Mark Crispin Miller for sending over this eye-opening January 20 meditation “I Watched Biden’s Inauguration First-Hand – Haunted and numb in a horribly sanitized city.” And our Canadian colleagues over the border at Strategic Culture penned this new satire “Confessions of a Deprogrammed Trump Supporter.” Enjoy? Happy Vermont Independence Month!

January 22, 2021 EVE Update: Progressive commentator Jimmy Dore and his team of critical media literacy comedians discuss a new viral video indicating ordinary Americans across the political spectrum are REALLY fed up. Meanwhile, the APB White House just “scrubbed” every previous video on the official WHITE HOUSE YouTube page and disabled comments for many of the seven remaining videos capturing the very beginnings of the APB regime. Finally, veteran war correspondent Luke Mogelson filed this feature New Yorker essay with 12:30 minutes of video highlighting moments from the “insurrection” after “spending the previous ten months reporting on the radical fringe of Trump supporters, from anti-lockdown militias to the Proud Boys,” many of whom believe 2020 election results “had been rigged and Trump’s victory stolen.”

January 18, 2021 EVE Update: TLAV brings critical media literacy skills to bear in analyzing these evolving news stories from The National Pulse, The Washington Post and the New York Times, further ‘complexifying’ the MSM narrative of “rampaging rioters” staging an “insurrection / coup” inside the US Capitol on January 6, 2021. Fascinating.

January 16, 2021 EVE Update: Former Pulitzer Prize winning New York Times journalist Chris Hedges in conversation with self-identified “LA jag off night club comedian” and Progressive political commentator Jimmy Dore about what happened to US liberalism, using the January 6th DC “insurrection” as a springboard. Good history lesson, and some straight talk about what a Biden/Harris regime may mean for US.

January 13, 2021 EVE Update: Thanks to New York University professor of news/ propaganda studies Dr. Mark Crispin Miller for sharing two documents tonight: 1) this eyewitness account of the January 6th DC events from J. Michael Waller, Senior Analyst for Strategy at the Center for Security Policy, who states that “the deadly riot at the US Capitol bore the markings of an organized operation planned well in advance of the January 6 joint session of Congress,” and 2) Gray Zone journalist Max Blumenthal’s deep dive into banned BLM protester John Sullivan’s role in instigating the “riot,” and pro-Trumpsters’ attempt to make him the “fall guy.” Complex situation, and both articles are worth a close read.

January 13, 2021 MORN Update: Thanks to Vermont researcher J. Brook for sending over this JTN story this morning. As we state below, Vermont is caught between a Trumpster Rock and a Biden/Deep State Hard Place. For the 22% of Vermonters who now support the peaceable and constitutional creation of a 2nd Vermont Republic, we are, by definition, both decentralists AND Constitutionalists, carefully watching this unfolding US Constitutional Crisis / “Color Revolution.”

The JTN story raised three important emerging questions re: the alleged “POTUS incited riot/insurrection” inside the US Capitol:

  1. How could the POTUS “incite an insurrection” that had already been pre-planned and was in motion before his speech ended?
  2. What did House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the other leaders in Congress (Democrat AND Republican) know — and when did they know it — about the possibility for violence and the Pentagon’s pre-attack offer to send National Guardsmen to reinforce the Capitol Police?
  3. Were there facilitators inside the Capitol and outside it who instigated or enabled the attack to be carried out? (See the phase-by-phase breakdown of on-site video in TLAV’s extended analysis, video below.)

-SNIP-ORIGINAL STORY, BELOW.

Publisher’s Note: According to several eyewitnesses, approximately ONE MILLION US citizens – young and old, black and white, left and right – peacefully assembled in Washington, DC on January 6th, 2021.

Why did ONE MILLION US citizens peacefully descend on the US capital in Washington, DC?

Unclear, as the US MSM failed to ASK them.

Instead, the US “news” channels treated citizens to the 2021 Launch of an unprecedented “Color Revolution,” presaging a coming MSM-trumpeted crackdown on “domestic terrorism,” (legislation for which has been prepared for months now – surprise!) catalyzed by a staged “made for TeeVee” event involving a small number of agent provocateurs – alleged “Trump supporters” who “rioted” in DC, “stormed” the US Capitol building, “incited by” the sitting US POTUS.

For our readers unfamiliar with the concept of a “Color Revolution,” we suggest beginning with TLAV breaking down the ODDness of this alleged “insurrection” (focused on the “storming” of the US Capitol building) and indy journalist Whitney Webb in conversation with TLAV on the coming “domestic terrorism,” and then ending with a short film (below) on Gene Sharp, ideological godfather of the “Color Revolution” concept, with this short 2009 essay for context “Explaining the Color Revolutions.”

Here’s the Deal: The US appears to be in the midst of an unfolding “color revolution” defined by 5 elements: 1) a “lame duck” POTUS DJT/regime (i.e. – if one rejects the mounds of evidence here for 2020 electile dysfunction – Constitutional Crisis 2 decades in the making – see Gore (2000), Kerry (2004), Sanders (2016 and 2020) ); 2) foreign support for anti-DJT/regime forces (i.e. China, the Vatican, and Open Society); 3) Big Tech and mass/social media support for anti-DJT/regime forces (i.e. Facebook and Twitter just de-platformed the sitting US president); 4) ideological rationales to destabilize the DJT/regime in the name of freedom, democracy, and economic and political improvement (i.e. regime is racist, sexist, corrupt, NON Woke); 5) The DJT/regime’s alleged failure to deal with a national public health crisis (i.e. the manufactured 2020 COVIDtastrophe).

‘RIOTERS’ POSING FOR PHOTO OPP IN THE US CAPITOL – ABOVE.

The US is caught between a Trumpster Rock and a Big Tech/Big Pharma/Deep State Hard Place, and as a tiny frontier outpost at US Empire’s edge, Vermont is not an Island.

TWITTER BANS DJT’S ‘OFFENSIVE’ TWEETS – ABOVE. FACEBOOK HEAD ZUCKERBERG ON “SHOCKING EVENTS” (?) AS A RATIONALE FOR “DEPLATFORMING” THE SITTING US POTUS.

‘WOKENESS’ AS THE NEW RELIGION OF THE US LEFT – ABOVE.

Anyone familiar with Color Revolutions will immediately recognize the familiar playbook: 1) fund and equip anti-regime forces (Proud Boys, Antifa, BLM, agent provocateurs etc – classic COINTELPRO playbook stuff), deploy them into a brewing national event such as a planned and constitutionally legitimate peaceful January 6th protest; 3) stage the obligatory PHOTO OPP – i.e. ‘Chewbacca’ and ‘Duck Dynasty’ taking over the Capitol building; and 4) publicize the hell out of it 24/7 ad nauseuman incessant drumbeat on all channels to remove a sitting and so-called ‘lame duck’ president from power.

One has to ask – for any US citizens who believe in the integrity of the 2020 election – that the Actor Playing Biden (APB) was legitimately elected the next POTUS – why all the fuss? Trump and his “minions” will whine and complain for two more weeks and then Go Away.

Clearly, all this “Sturm und Drang” indicates a deep level of Uncertainty in the November results – and for good reason.

HOW A STAGED PHOTO OPP PLAYED OUT ON THE BIG TECH/BIG PHARMA FUNDED US MSM ABOVE.

Two weeks left until Inauguration Day.

The outcome of this Color Revolution is still to be determined.

Stay tuned, and remember “the Gods of the Empire are not the Gods of Vermont!”

And here’s Gene Sharp on “Color Revolutions” as a strategy for regime change…

Plan B: Bernie, Meet the 2VR – The Power of A Meme

Back in early March, in the midst of the U.S. Super Tuesday 2016 presidential brouhaha, I published a playful little meme on my Facebook page. “PLAN B,” declares the meme, against a “Welcome to Vermont - Green Mountain State” sign, green with yellow borders. “WE ALL MOVE TO DECLARE INDEPENDENCE FROM THE USA AND VOTE FOR BERNIE TO BE OUR PRESIDENT.”
