Imagine helping destroy an entire country based on a lie… and then barely anyone talks about it when the truth comes out.
That’s what happened with Syria.
The OPCW has just this month, thanks to a lawsuit, finally admitted evidence was covered up in the Douma investigation. The cover-up allowed the US-backed false flag to continue.
The implications are enormous.

🚨 The First US War Overseas Was A Genocide—It Was Erased From History 🚨
During the Spanish-American War, which was largely created by US propaganda, the US went after Spanish colonial territories — one of those being the Philippines. In the Battle of Manila Bay in 1898, the US won a decisive victory, destroying the Spanish Pacific fleet. Afterward, one might think the Americans would turn around and sail home, singing sea shanties with grog in hand. …But no.
President McKinley decided it made more sense to try to take over the entire Philippines even though few Americans knew what it was or where it was. About this decision, McKinley stated:
“One night late, it came to me this way. There was nothing left for us to do but to take them all, and to educate the Filipinos and uplift them and Christianize them, and by God’s grace do the very best we could for them, as our fellow men for who Christ also died.” (Quotes are from the book "Overthrow".)
It’s unclear if the hundreds of thousands of Filipinos who would die in McKinley’s pursuit felt uplifted by the experience. Also interesting is the fact that McKinley believed there was “nothing” else he could do but subjugate, oppress, convert, and control the Filipino people. Apparently no one made him aware of the idea of leaving them alone. (I bet when he heard about that years later, it was a real head-smack moment.)
Prior to the arrival of the Americans, there were already Filipino guerrilla forces fighting against the Spanish colonizers. After the Battle of Manila Bay, the head of those forces, Emilio Aguinaldo, met with Commodore George Dewey, the head of the US naval force. The two of them differed on what happened at that meeting. Aguinaldo believed they had agreed to defeat Spain together, at which point the Filipino people would have their independence. Dewey later claimed that’s not at all what happened. But then again the two of them didn’t speak each other’s language, and there was no interpreter. Also, the United States has broken every promise it has ever made to indigenous people — so this was just par for the course.

A few months later the US and Spain signed the Treaty of Paris on December 10, 1898, which brought the Spanish-American War to a close. In the agreement, the US paid Spain $20 million for the entire Philippine archipelago, which consisted of 7,000 islands and was home to 7 million people who had no idea they’d just been sold from one colonizer to another. (That means the US paid $2.85 per Filipino.)
The Filipino people proceeded with implementing their newfound independence. They approved a constitution, created a republic, and proclaimed Aguinaldo president.
“Twelve days later, this new nation declared war against the United States forces on the islands. McKinley took no notice. To him the Filipinos were what the historian Richard Welch called ‘a disorganized and helpless people.’”
Oddly, at this time in American history, some percentage of Congress believed the US should not be a dastardly and repulsive imperial hegemon. (I know. I’m as shocked as you are.) Therefore, the Senate (for a bit) refused to ratify the Treaty of Paris.
“Senator George Frisbie Hoar of Massachusetts warned that it would turn the United States into a ‘a vulgar, commonplace empire founded upon physical force, controlling subject races and vassal states, in which one class must forever rule and the other classes must forever obey.’”
Ha! Can you imagine that? The US would never do something so grotesque! …except for the next 125 years and counting. (Also, my man George gets extra credit for having the middle name Frisbie.)
Hmmm, so how can America’s ruling psychopaths get Congress to play along with the subjugation of 7 million Filipinos? I bet those pesky politicians would change their tune if the US forces in the Philippines were attacked by the barbarians who lived there. Oh, what do you know?! That’s exactly what happened next!
During the Senate’s debate, the Filipino rebels attacked the American forces in Manila. This helped push the Senate to finally ratify the treaty. …But it was later revealed that the American troops actually fired the first shots. So we can see the US tradition of false flags used to drag us into bloody wars goes back quite a way. (Apparently, the long arc of history bends towards repeating itself.)
In the battles that followed, the Filipinos—up against superior US weaponry—used every guerrilla tactic they could think of in order to defend their land, families, villages, and lives. The Americans responded with genocide. In just one example:
“General Wheaton ordered every town and village within twelve miles to be destroyed and their inhabitants killed.”
The US military worked to stop any reporting of the ethnic cleansing from getting back to the home audience. Eventually, in 1901, some of the extent of the horror made its way into US newspapers. Average Americans found out the troops were using torture, rape, and ethnic cleansing to subdue the local population. They rarely differentiated between combatants and noncombatants.
“‘We have actually come to do the thing we went to war to banish,’ the Baltimore American lamented. The Indianapolis News concluded that the United States had adopted ‘the methods of barbarism,’ and the New York Post declared that American troops ‘have been pursuing a policy of wholesale and deliberate murder.’”
Of course, plenty of US newspapers fell all over themselves to defend the genocidal colonizers. Can you guess which rag led the way?
“The New York Times argued that ‘brave and loyal officers’ had reacted understandably to the ‘cruel, treacherous, murderous’ Filipinos.”
In early 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt had succeeded the recently assassinated McKinley. In yet another moment of foreshadowing, Roosevelt — pretending to care — pushed for hearings in the Senate to address the charges of misconduct by American forces. Teddy then got his allies to steadfastly limit the scope of the hearings. The committee never even issued a final report. As with the Warren Commission on the assassination of JFK and the 9/11 Commission, the mere appearance of an effort to “figure it out” was enough to distract the American public. The commissions never got to the truth, nor were they meant to.
By July of 1902, Teddy Roosevelt announced that the Philippines had been pacified. Most of the rebel leaders had been killed, and the indigenous population had given up its resistance.
“In three and a half torturous years of war, 4,374 American soldiers were killed… About 16,000 guerrillas and at least 20,000 civilians were also killed. Filipinos remember those years as some of the bloodiest in their history. Americans quickly forgot that the war ever happened.”
Britannica puts the death toll higher:
"An estimated 20,000 Filipino combatants were killed, and more than 200,000 civilians perished as a result of combat, hunger, or disease."
The first time US troops ever fought overseas they committed genocide. It does not seem that much has changed over 125 years.

🚨 The Real Reasons The US Has Now Targeted Mexico 🚨
Despite all of their reporting dripping with imperial propaganda, the New York Times can be useful at times. For example, if they start reporting that something needs to be done about [fill in country here], then it generally alerts us all that the US oligarchy/CIA/lizard billionaires have been working towards coup’ing [country] for months already.
So who/what is the Times now telling us we need to do something about?
Mexico.
We - the murderous, blood-thirty United States - must do something to “help” Mexico. Should we send our helpful bombs or our helpful CIA agents or our helpful mercenaries or perhaps our helpful economic wars?
It makes perfect sense that if a country is having some kind of trouble, the only people who can possibly help them are the ones responsible for killing 6 million innocent people in the past few years. It would be like if you had a small fire in your basement and you urgently declared that only Stephen Paddock can help deal with it.
[SIDE NOTE: I'm very suppressed on here. If you like this column, subscribe (at no cost) to "RealLeeCamp" on subs tack. Thanks!]
Anyway, the New York Times article along with the other anti-Mexico propaganda in recent months acts as a blinking red alert that the US is working towards a color revolution there (or some other brand of coup attempt). One confirmation of this is recent leaked audio recordings known as “Hondurasgate.”
“[The tapes] allegedly reveal coordination between [Honduran President Juan Orlando] Hernandez, allies of US President Donald Trump, Argentine President Javier Milei and figures linked to Israel to establish a digital media platform aimed at spreading disinformation against the governments of Mexico, Brazil and Colombia.”
This begs the question of why the US ruling psychopaths would want to coup Mexico. Well, the biggest reason is that according to the Donroe Doctrine, we own Mexico (and pretty much everything in the Western hemisphere). We want to steal / pillage / pilfer the resources of Latin America and use them as a baseball bat against the cranium of China in the great power conflict. So there’s that.
But beyond that, there are other reasons the US ruling parasites really despise Mexico and President Claudia Sheinbaum right now. Here are the greatest hits:
Sheinbaum is de-privatizing major oil and energy companies, thereby allowing the profits to go back to the citizens rather than filling the pockets of billionaire psychopaths. The Mexican government also voted to give preferential treatment to the state power company.
Sheinbaum has introduced a universal scholarship program to make sure all children in Mexico can afford an education. (Fun Fact: In the US, there are 43 million people with a total of almost $2 trillion in student loan debt.)
Mexico’s welfare policies during President Lopez Obrador’s six years raised 13.4 million people out of poverty. Sheinbaum is continuing that legacy.
Another Lopez Obrador goal that Sheinbaum carries on — In just six years he tripled the minimum wage from $4.75 per day to $15 a day. Sheinbaum has said she hopes to double it again. (Fun Fact: the US minimum wage has been the same for 17 years.)
Sheinbaum wants to build a million homes and has launched a program to create 0% interest mortgages.
She granted labor rights for app delivery and ride share workers. This means they’re entitled to medical care, paid leave, compensation for an accident, a pension, a year-end bonus and profit-sharing. (Fun Fact: In the US Uber drivers get none of these things but are lobbying for two KFC Family Bucket™ coupons as a Christmas bonus.)
She put forward, and got Congress to approve, cutting the workweek from 48 hours to 40 hours. Meanwhile, in the US Amazon is working people until they die — and then telling the other employees to just step around the bodies.
As with Lopez Obrador, Sheinbaum’s government is operating under the idea of “For the good of everyone, the poor come first.” The Trump administration is operating under the slogan — “For the good of the rich, the poor can go F’ themselves.”
As you can imagine, this list horrifies the American ruling psychopaths. They do not like to see the threat of a good example right across the border. What if Americans actually realize that any of these things Sheinbaum has done are also possible in the United States?? As Donald Trump said recently:
“It’s not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things. They can do it on a state basis. You can’t do it on a federal. We have to take care of one thing: military protection.”
So while many in Mexico get a free education, a 0% interest mortgage, labor rights, a higher minimum wage, and fewer hours at work, in the US we just get a $1.5 trillion per year military fraud to enrich the biggest bloodthirsty war profiteers on the planet. Sounds fun!
Point is — I agree. We need to coup Mexico.

🚨 How To Perpetrate And Sell A Top-Notch Genocide! 🚨
One might think that completing and marketing a genocide to the fun-loving folks of America, the UK, etc. is nearly impossible. But in fact, you too can perpetrate your very own genocide without much fuss if you just follow these simple steps.
- Allow / facilitate an initial attack that you can pretend is the beginning of all history. Even the NY Times has reported on the Israeli government’s awareness that the Oct 7, 2023 attack was going to happen (including every last detail) for over a year in advance.
- Murder a bunch of your own people because it will help sell the casus belli. Regular people’s lives don’t matter even if they’re your own citizens.
- Commence your genocide via every means possible — bombing, shooting, starving, disease, whatever ya got. Don’t worry about whether it “looks” too much like a genocide. You can deal with that later.
- Ban all reporters from the area because you don’t want anyone to see what’s actually happening.
- For reporters who refuse to stop reporting, go ahead and murder them.
- When you first murder a journalist, claim it was a tragic accident.
- When you next murder a journalist, claim it was because they were standing next to a terrorist.
- When you next murder a journalist, claim the journalist was also a terrorist.
- When you next murder a journalist, don’t even bother to give a reason. No one cares anymore.
- Turning the horrific and unbearable into the normal and commonplace is the key to completing a great genocide.
- Blow up hospitals and medical facilities in the region because they might help people survive, and we don’t want that.
- When you first bomb a hospital, claim it wasn’t your fault. The bad guys did it to themselves.
[SIDE NOTE: Nearly every sentence in this column has links with sources. To get those (at no cost), simply go to "RealLeeCamp" on subs tack. Subscribe to my work there. Thanks!]
- When you next bomb a hospital, claim it was because the bad guys were underneath the hospital.
- When you next bomb a hospital, claim it was because the bad guys were seen going into the hospital.
- When you next bomb a hospital… ummmm… You know what, after you’ve bombed 5 or 10 hospitals, most of the world will stop asking why you did it because they’ll be bored and instead want to read stories about their favorite actor’s favorite chef’s favorite dish.
- Bomb schools, universities, community centers, places of worship, even cemeteries — anything that allows for community and ties the people to the land. Remember: You’re going to want to ethnically cleanse the survivors after your killing is done, so you don’t want them to have anything left that keeps them there.
- Cut off the food, water, and medicine in the area. Claim you did it because the bad guys were hiding in the food, water, and medicine. Logic doesn’t really matter. Westerners just want something they can repeat around the water cooler at work to explain why genocide is “totally fine.”
- Bomb or attack any aid groups operating in the region. You want to get rid of aid groups because A) they might help some of the population survive, and we can’t have that. And B) they will often report back what they saw in the genocided region, and we can’t have that either.
- When asked why you’re murdering aid workers, just rinse and repeat the same old excuses as with the bombed hospitals.
- At some point international pressure to stop your genocide might get to be too much. If that happens, move on to Phase 2: Pretending It’s A Ceasefire.
- Agree to some bullshit ceasefire plan with the genocided people. It doesn’t really matter what the agreement says because you’re not planning on abiding by any of it anyway.
- If it says you can’t steal anymore land, ignore that.
- If it says you can’t bomb anymore, ignore that.
- If it says you must allow food and medicine in, ignore that.
- If it says you must allow international aid groups in, ignore that.
- If it says you must allow the victims to leave and/or return from the area, ignore that.
- Okay, now that you have your super awesome ceasefire, you can tell the world you’re relieved the “conflict” is over while internally making it clear that nothing is over. (Oh yeah, always call it a “conflict” because people act all weird and touchy when you call it genocide.)
- Slowly steal more and more of the region until the genocide survivors are all condensed onto a completely uninhabitable tiny spit of land without food, water, medicine, or refuge.
- Luckily most of the international news media will have moved on by now as will the people donating money to help the victims. It’s been a couple years and the media rarely cares about anything for more than a few months. The only time they’ll view your genocide as worthy of coverage is when something strange or new happens — but since you’re basically just killing innocent people in the same manner you have been for over two years, there won’t be any good “news hook” there. Booooooring.
- After another year or two, make a very generous offer that the people in the “conflict zone” can “voluntarily” leave if they would like. Most will take you up on your offer because the alternative is to die.
Congratulations! You have yourself a successful genocide!
Of course don’t forget to be proactive on the propaganda front as well. Claim that anyone criticizing your genocide is antisemitic. Pay social media influencers to gush about how awesome and moral you are. Pay PR companies to “reframe” your massacres as really cool and hip. Accuse the people you’re ethnically cleansing of doing all the things you’re actually guilty of. You get the idea.
Follow these simple steps and you too can commit a nice, easy genocide without all the fuss!

🚨 Fake stories about "rope" on Oct 7th were amplified around the world for years. But true reporting about Israel using rope as a weapon against Palestinians is largely ignored by Western media.
A propaganda system doesn’t work by inventing every lie from scratch.
It works by deciding:
• whose suffering gets amplified
• whose suffering gets ignored
• and which “experts” get treated as credible no matter how many holes appear in the stories
The media spent years repeating unverified October 7 narratives as unquestionable fact.
But when reports emerge about abuse and sxual violence against Palestinians, suddenly the corporate press becomes cautious, quiet and evasive.
The double standard is the story.
🚨 The US Gov't Is Only Winning One of The Wars It's Fighting🚨
Losing a war can be depressing, and the US is definitely losing the war against Iran.
- We’re no closer to defending our beloved petrodollar.
- China is as powerful as ever.
- We’ve caused prices of necessities like gas and groceries to shoot up at home.
- American farmers are being relocated to museums with exhibits about how life used to be.
- And Iran somehow seems more powerful than ever.
Sheesh. It’s those kinds of results that might make us give up on the whole enterprise of attacking countries and blowing up schoolhouses full of children in order to strengthen our empire.
But I’m here with some news to cheer you up. We are winning at least one of our wars. We’re winning our war against the American people. …Although I guess the word “we” is a bit confusing there. I should’ve said: The ruling elite are winning their war against the American people.
Thanks to the brain parasite that is toxic nationalism, most Americans believe adorable, antiquated aphorisms like, “We’re all in this together” or “A rising tide lifts all boats.” These cutesy sayings are definitely not true and possibly even offensive.
We are not all in this together.
In fact, the ruling elite are at war with the rest of us. (So I hope you’ve been stretching every morning and kept your battle uniform wrinkle-free.) Here’s just a little taster flight of ways in which the oligarchy have shown they’re actually at war with the American people over the past couple of years.
- The Trump Admin. has cut roughly $1 trillion from Medicaid expenditures, meaning many Americans who were struggling to afford healthcare will have little to no help making that possible. (But don’t worry, those cuts came with a $1 trillion tax break for the rich so that an investment banker can get his grundle waxed by a true professional.)
[SIDE NOTE: I'm very suppressed here. If you want to support my work for free, subscribe to "RealLeeCamp" on subs tack. Thanks!]
- The oligarchy has cut $187 billion from the nation’s food assistance program so that poor people will go hungry. This wasn’t an accident. In fact, Trump Administration officials have been bragging about knocking 4.3 million people off food assistance. (This is an important step to take because undernourished poor people are slower and therefore easier to run from.)
- The government ended Obamacare subsidies that made healthcare almost affordable for millions of people living in the only country that destroys lives with healthcare. Cutting the subsidies caused one in 10 people using Obamacare to drop out entirely and instead risk having zero health insurance in a nation where one injury or illness can bankrupt you.
- The costs of Trump’s tariff war have largely been passed on to the American consumer. In fact, the high tariffs are responsible for pushing between 650,000 and 875,000 Americans into poverty. This was a particularly brilliant move by Trump — he raised tariffs on China, for example, and almost no one noticed it was a direct attack on the American poor.
- Trump publicly stated that it was not possible for the US government to pay for things like daycare, Medicare, and Medicaid. He said the government is focused on spending money on wars (i.e., killing loads of people). I somewhat sympathize with Trump on this point. If you’re trying to murder someone, it can be rather distracting to have a second person asking you for help getting a sandwich.
Of course these are just a scarce few examples of the war being waged against Americans. The battlefronts of this war also include things like massive giveaways to corporations, environmental destruction, the gutting of the few regulations that tried to protect our air, water, or land, the gutting of restrictions on employer behavior, the intentional ignoring of wage theft or other forms of exploitation, etc. The war is massive and fought throughout the country, in every household, school, and office.
As a patriotic American, I obviously support our government no matter what. So I’m proud to say we’re winning this war. …against the American people. We’re totally fuckin’ them up.

🚨 I have never had a more suppressed story than this on @Facebook. The Justice Dept is subpoenaing those who brought food to starving Cubans including the co-founder of Code Pink, Medea Benjamin & Hasan Piker.

🚨 Justice Dept Subpoenas Those Who Brought Food To Cubans — Including Code Pink Founder 🚨
If the US empire were truly evil and nefarious, you might assume they would avoid attacking and imprisoning those who help starving people or house the homeless or give medical care to the needy. They would do their most despicably evil deeds behind closed doors, in the shadows, while publicly claiming to help the needy, the hungry, the less fortunate.
You would be wrong.
Our US imperial rulers are not smart enough to cover their true intentions. At no point has Trump said the hungry should be fed or the homeless housed. Meanwhile, his government blows up schools full of children, prosecutes those who protest genocide, and now attempts to imprison those who bring food and medical supplies to the persecuted.
Reports from Fox News and other outlets say the Justice Department has subpoenaed, or will soon subpoena, the co-founder of Code Pink Medea Benjamin and popular YouTuber Hasan Piker. The Justice Dept. claims it wants information about Benjamin and Piker’s trip to Cuba, but the Trump Administration’s real hope is to imprison anti-war, anti-genocide activists.
Medea Benjamin has stated clearly that she and the others did nothing wrong during their trip to Cuba:
"We traveled to Cuba under the U.S. government-authorized category of providing humanitarian aid to the Cuban people. We brought desperately needed medicines and medical supplies at a time when Cuba is suffering catastrophic shortages caused by the crippling U.S. blockade. We stayed in hotels explicitly permitted under U.S. regulations."
The Trump Administration knows they’re fighting a war for the minds of Americans. And the truth is the milquetoast Trump critiques on CNN or in the pages of the New York Times are no great threat because all mainstream outlets still support US militarism, Israeli genocide, and imperial hegemony. The true threat is those who think outside of the Overton window — those who say “end the wars,” “stop the genocides,” “feed the starving,” “care for the oppressed.” Those thoughts and beliefs truly expose the moral rot at the heart of the US government.
As Caitlin Johnstone wrote:
“The empire is waging a relentless war on intellectual clarity and on moral clarity, because truth and morality are its enemies.”
Back when Obama was still in office, I went on a trip to Cuba with Medea Benjamin and a few others. Thanks to Medea and Code Pink’s organizing and planning, we saw amazing sights, tasted wonderful food, and met vibrant people who, despite 125 years of US oppression, maintain their dignity and culture.
Medea has devoted her life to ending US wars, rescuing the oppressed, and promoting peace, love, and ethical humanitarian treatment for all. For daring to do those things, she now has a target on her back. The US oligarchy wants to lock her up. They want to send a message to all Americans that you better get in line behind the morally bankrupt behavior of the US empire or you’ll be designated a criminal.
I am not shocked that the US government would try to arrest people for bringing food and medicine to the victims of the US empire. But if the rest of us let it happen — if we act like it’s okay or normal or acceptable — then we have all lost our humanity.
Perhaps that’s what the soulless US empire wants.

🚨BREAKING: There is NO water in The Rio Grande?!
I’m standing here in New Mexico and the river is completely DRY.
Nearby AI data centers are consuming massive amounts of water to keep their systems cool.
Meta’s Los Lunas facility alone has reportedly been tied to roughly 75 million gallons of water usage per year connected to Rio Grande resources and it’s only ONE of many projects expanding across the state.
People can argue over the exact numbers, but one thing is undeniable… these facilities require enormous amounts of water and there are more data centers across the country being built as we speak.
This is starting to look like an environmental disaster in plain sight.
We need to put pressure on local representatives and the President to examine this environmental crisis before it’s too late.
