🚨 EX-INSIDER BOMBSHELL: WE CREATED THIS EUROPE ON PURPOSE - CIA BOUGHT STOLTENBERG, RUTTE AND ENTIRE GOVERNMENTS

I have never heard the truth stated so directly. Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, retired U.S. Army officer and former Chief of Staff to the Secretary of State, just dropped a confession that should shock any European citizen who is still capable of thinking for themselves. He says America did not merely influence the continent. It deliberately built the Europe we see today. And the receipts are brutal.

THE CONFESSION
➡️ “We created the Europe that exists right now on purpose.”
➡️ Wilkerson states it plainly: the CIA, with help from SIS, MI6 and later Mossad, painstakingly crafted the political landscape of Europe in the exact image Washington wanted.
➡️ This was not organic alliance-building. It was a long-term operation.

THE BUYING SPREE
➡️ They bought newspaper editors.
➡️ They bought labor-union heads.
➡️ They bought parliamentarians.
➡️ They bought two NATO Secretaries General: Jens Stoltenberg and Mark Rutte.
➡️ They bought whole countries in terms of their political apparatus.

HOW THE MACHINE WORKED
➡️ Starting in 2002, billions of dollars flowed through the CIA and USAID.
➡️ Liberal democracy itself was weaponized.
➡️ An Asia scholar once said America taught the dogs to bark. Wilkerson agrees the trainers were American intelligence services.
➡️ Europe barked against Russia, against diplomacy, against its own interests because that is what it had been trained and paid to do.

THE STOLTENBERG OPERATION
➡️ Wilkerson was “up close to cheek and jowl” in elevating Jens Stoltenberg.
➡️ Washington watched how malleable he was inside his own government and used him as the center pole from which influence spread to other capitals.
➡️ Stoltenberg calculated correctly: loyalty to the American line would make him the next NATO chief.

THE RUTTE PATH
➡️ Dutch media later exposed that Mark Rutte, while prime minister, excused almost anything Israel did, stayed extra-hawkish on Russia, and backed the bombing of Yemen.
➡️ The purpose was clear: look good on the job application for NATO Secretary General.
➡️ Washington had already signaled exactly what qualities it would reward.

THE HOLOCAUST LEVERAGE
➡️ With Mossad’s help, the lingering weight of the Holocaust over European politics was deliberately exploited.
➡️ Germany’s strict anti-semitism laws and regulations were shaped with American assistance so the instrument would remain available.

THE BOTTOM LINE
America spent decades and billions of dollars buying the political class of Europe, installing compliant NATO leaders, and training entire governments to bark on command. Now the same Europe is weaker, more submissive, and still following orders that no longer serve its survival. The creators are finally admitting what they did.

This was never an alliance of equals. It was a product.

Sony wants to abandon fans? Let's give them a small taste of their own medicine!

Together with other creators we call for a 1 week #PSBlackout in August. No logins, no play sessions, no purchases on any of Sony's platforms.

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

I was just scammed for $500K by Polymarket.

Here's what happened:

[Ihtesham Ali @ihteshamali]

Stop keeping your phone on your desk.

I know you think you're fine. I know you think you have self-control. That's not what the research is measuring.

Researchers at UT Austin ran a study where participants kept their phones nearby but completely silent, face down, with zero notifications.

Then they took cognitive tests measuring working memory and fluid intelligence — your ability to hold information in mind and reason through new problems.

The group with phones on the desk performed significantly worse than the group whose phones were in another room.

Not because they checked. Not because they were distracted. Because the brain was quietly, invisibly allocating cognitive resources to managing the presence of the device — without the person being aware it was happening at all.

"Brain Drain: The Mere Presence of One's Own Smartphone Reduces Available Cognitive Capacity"
Ward, Duke, Gneezy, Bos. 2017. DOI: 10.1086/691462

Every study session you do with your phone on the desk is a study session running on a reduced cognitive budget.

Every meeting you attend with your phone on the table is a meeting where your reasoning is impaired.

Every deep work block with your phone within eyeshot is a deep work block you're doing slightly less smart than you could be.

You're not failing at willpower.

You're failing at architecture.

The phone doesn't need to demand attention. It just needs to be present.

And the people paying the highest price are not the ones who check constantly.

They're the ones who care most about their phones and feel smugly in control because they're not checking.

The control is an illusion.

The drain is real.

A $50 Million Crime Is Happening on Polymarket Right Now

I don't usually speak up about prediction market bets, even though I'm in the top 1% on Polymarket, but this case is different.

It's a textbook example of how crystal-clear rules, written in plain English, can suddenly get "reinterpreted" when $50 million is on the line.

What happened:

An Iran x Israel/US ceasefire market required 14 full calendar days without qualifying strikes.

That means 336 continuous hours of silence.

But on April 7:

About 20 of 24 hours still had active hostilities, and missiles were launched after the ceasefire announcement.

Israel confirmed strikes continued afterward.

Yet that day was still counted as day one of peace.

This means that these rules were not followed.

Now traders are pointing to:

- disputed resolutions sent to the UMA voting
- 50 new wallets opening large "Yes" positions before the announcement
- one wallet turning ~$72k into ~$200k within hours

A $50M market deserves fairness.

[plutos @plutos_eth]

$50M SCAM on Polymarket happening right now!

A vote just ruled on the US-Iran ceasefire market for 14 calendar days - but there were only 13 days and 20 hours of active hostilities counted on day 14. Despite this, after a highly disputed resolution, they ruled that day 14 counts.

Right now the dispute is exploding. Users are furious, talking lawsuits, and there are also allegations of manipulative voting from fresh wallets.

This needs attention. This needs exposure.

He said doesn’t really know much about Fallout since he only narrated a few lines for each game and was surprised they kept coming back to have him record more lines.
