Lest you wonder, not only did I not vote for Mr. Trump (or Hillary), but I relished heaping opprobrium on him during the election campaign. Just so you know, I’m not advocating for him, but I’m alarmed that the Deep State (the White House + the Intel Agency gang) now appears to be trying to hack the electoral college vote against him.
The headline deployed everywhere last week, “Russia Hacks Election,” was designed by the Deep State players to deviously lead the broadly dim public to think that Russia somehow interfered with the balloting process, which was not possible since voting machines are not hooked up to the internet. And then it was repeated endlessly by the cable news networks and the newspapers, under the number one rule of propaganda: that if you repeat something often enough, the public will swallow it.
This dishonest meme was also designed to distract the public from the substance of the emails disclosed by WikiLeaks — namely, the scamming and trickery of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), and the influence-peddling of Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation, which had her flirting with indictment last summer, and only reinforced her already-established public image as an unscrupulous person.
The New York Times especially worked the “Russia Hacks Election” story to a fare-the-well, saying in its Sunday edition:
The Central Intelligence Agency has concluded that Moscow put its thumb on the scale for Mr. Trump through the release of hacked Democratic emails, which provided fodder for many of the most pernicious false attacks on Mrs. Clinton on social media.
False attacks? What, that Hillary’s cronies put the DNC’s “thumb on the scale” against Bernie Sanders? That Donna Brazille gave Hillary debate questions beforehand? That as Secretary of State Hillary gave more face-time to foreign supplicants based on their contributions to the Clinton Foundation, and expedited arms deals for especially big givers? That she collected millions in speaking fees for sucking up to Too-Big-To-Fail bankers? That The Times and The WashPo and CNN reporters were taking direction from Hillary’s PR operatives?
Consider, too, how the Deep State “Russia Hacks Election” meme was ramped up to top volume coincidentally the week before the electoral college vote, as a last-ditch effort was launched by the old-line media, the diehard Hillary partisans, and a bunch of Hollywood celebrities, to persuade electoral college delegates to switch their votes to deprive Trump of his election victory.
President Obama did his bit to amplify the message by coloring Russian President Vladimir Putin as being behind the so-called hacking because “not much happens in Russia without, you know, Vladimir Putin,” just like not much happened in old Puritan New England without the involvement of Old Scratch. So now we have an up-to-date Devil figure to stir the paranoid imaginations of an already divided and perturbed public.
Hillary and her supporters have vehemently asserted that “seventeen intelligence agencies” agree with the assessment that Russia hacked the election. It might be greater news to the American people to hear that there actually are seventeen such agencies out there. Perhaps Mrs. Clinton or Mr. Obama might explain exactly what they are beyond the CIA, the FBI, the DIA, the NSA, and DHS. Personally, I feel less secure knowing that there are so many additional surveillance services sifting through everybody’s digital debris trail.
There’s been some chagrin among more prudent observers that neither the various Intel gang chiefs, including James Clapper, overall Director of National Intelligence, nor the White House have provided a shred of evidence that WikiLeaks got the Hillary emails from the Russians. One might even suppose that we discovered the hack by hacking the Russians, perhaps even Mr. Putin’s personal iPhone — but, wait a minute… we don’t intrude on other nations’ business. We don’t use the internet to spy (!) on anybody.
It will be interesting to see how Mr. Trump gets along with the Intel gang when (and if) he actually makes it into the oval office. It’s nice to think that he will fire a bunch of them, and then fire a bunch more, and maybe take a good hard look at these seventeen security and surveillance agencies and maybe shut a few of them down. In the meantime, their activity begins to look like the attempted coup d’état I warned about a few months ago.
Forgive me for changing the subject so briskly, but there was another front page piece in The New York Times on Sunday that kind of said it all about where that Old Gray Lady’s collective head is at these days. Behold this quote from the story What Women Really Think of Men:
As the country prepares to revert to white male rule, our common condition for all but eight of the last 240 years, we should think harder about why we assume so little of men, including ones we may be married to. Too many men don’t prove those expectations wrong, and are rewarded anyway with prizes like the presidency.
64 Comments on "Kunstler: The Deep State Blues"

For Kunstler, who probably has a follower-ship that is on average Democrates leaning, common sense prevails. The Putin-hacked-election meme is ridiculous. Good to see that Kunstler embraces the “deep state” meme, indicating that there is a power-behind-the-screens, that decides what happens in the US and now has been sidelined by an outsider.
onlooker on Mon, 19th Dec 2016 1:27 pm
The “Outsider” is surrounding himself with billionaire/Wall st. types, military and corporate people, so I am not sure how much of an outsider he really is. I will say the “Establishment” really really wanted Killary. The desperate attempts at present is another sign of that.
Anonymous on Mon, 19th Dec 2016 1:50 pm
Still not entirely clear what has the deep state so incensed. The ‘trump regime’ is already being stacked with pentagon and wall st. insiders. The pentagon, is even better represented than usual, and the rest are catchall of climate deniers and neo-liberals of all stripes.
What is even less clear, or being made less clear, is the real agenda of those still trying to push killary into the WH. If her mentor barack-I have-a-drone-obomber is anything to go by, I have no idea what it is they hollyjewood and the rest of the ‘liberal intelligentsia’ think shillary is meant to accomplish. Barak, despite his well-kept and dignified outward appearance and mild, easy-going demeanor, managed to deliver everything that the military, wall st, and the neo-liberal elites wanted. This is what endeared barack so much to them. That they could do whatever they wished, and get obomber to say and do whatever they wanted him to.
Under brand ‘obama’, the deep state, found they could literally get away with murder. They absolutely love him. They were looking forward to 8 more years of this with shillary taking up residence in the ceremonial palace. But coming back to my earlier point, brand obama didn’t deliver ONE thing, besides a pleasing baritone and media-friendly optics, to so-called ‘liberals’, or their causes.
Like:
Universal Health Care? Dead on Arrival
Reduce uS aggression? LOL, read the news.
Punishment for wall streets crimes? Not a chance.
Action on climate change or pollution? Mostly hot air.
Trump of course, will also be a disaster for the empire. Just a different kind of disaster than shillary. The generals, oil cartel execs, and other low IQ morons hes surrounding himself with, will prove to be just as toxic as the ones killary would have green-lit. All said though, Kunstler is right to call out the intel-neo-liberal crowds desperate attempted putsch against the ‘donald’. The alt-media are the only ones saying this whole Russia-did-it story is completely bogus. Here in Canada, the CBC and other corporate media also repeat the same claims endlessly, and w/o a hint of scepticism. Im sure the same is true in the rest of the free-world order as well. Whether you live in the UK, or Germany, or lichtenstein, it is a safe bet, everyone is hearing the same tall-tale over and over.
Putin did it (personally), we are now being told, as if the CIA and Mossad had on-camera poof of him over-seeing the whole thing from his secret disinformation bunker under the kremlin.

Kunstler is exactly right. Again.
I didn’t know the US had 17 intelligence agencies either. And supposedly they all agree with Hillary but they won’t make a public statement and won’t release any evidence?
There’s something suspicious about that. The FBI had no problem making public statements about Hillary’s emials before the election. Why no public statements now?
Cheers!

Regions Near North Pole to Hit Above Freezing Three Days Before Christmas
“Back then, the polar zone in the north appeared to be mostly solid. And if ice moved or melted — it was a slow grind or a rare event. No more. Now, Arctic sea ice extent values have plummeted and the thinner ice that remains is often melting, cracking, and mobile. Now, increasingly, during late fall and early winter temperatures have been rising to near or above freezing.”
“This level of warmth during December for the Arctic is excessive and the expected readings are in the range of 25 to 31 degrees Celsius above average ( 45 to 55 Fahrenheit warmer than normal). These are near all-time record highs. But it is not just the extreme departures predicted for Wednesday that should be cause for concern, it’s the fact that such a high level of warmth for this region of the Arctic is occurring with a greater and greater frequency. For human-forced climate change — primarily driven by the burning of fossil fuels — is now in the process of radically changing the Arctic environment. ”

JHK is spot on with this one. IF Trump makes it to the Imperial Palace, and survives to run again, it will be a miracle. I remember the death of JFK. It was a shock to most and the coverup was not done well. At least they could kill the one they blamed to shut him up. And then kill the killer.
If the last few months has not opened some American eyes to the 3rd world, banana republic they live in, I doubt anything will. There is no freedom in America. Only slavery to the corporations and banks as represented by their owned government.
All I can say is: We allowed it to happen and now we will reap the consequences. They will be brutal and deadly. 2017 is going to be a very rough year for Westerners.

Very telling are the 689 comments, most of which have been entfernt (Removed). There is now a truly unique situation in world history that the Western media have quite literally been beleaguered and surrounded by angry civilians, who are taking revenge at the media, who for decades have been peddling One World propaganda. The revenge is for the moment verbal, via the comment section, but could soon turn uglier. The West, a monster created by the US deep state in 1945 is unravelling quickly.

BTW: Why are we still in Afghanistan? Why to profit from the poppy crop…
“Afghanistan is the main supplier of opioids and heroin to the US, according to UN sources, Afghanistan produces approximately 90 percent of the World’s supply of opium destined to the illegal heroin and opioid markets.
It’s a multibillion dollar industry. A large share of the opium is exported in military planes out of Afghanistan.
Following an opium eradication program implemented by the Afghan (Taliban) government in 2000 with the support of the United Nations, the production of opium had collapsed by more than 90% (less than 200 tons).
It regained its historical levels following the entry of US and allied forces in October 2001. The production of opium has increased almost thirty fold since the invasion and occupation of Afghanistan by US-NATO forces in October 2001.
The illegal opium trade out of Afghanistan is “protected’. The deaths from synthetic opioids and heroin documented in this article are directly related to the surge in opium production in Afghanistan in the course of the last fifteen years.”
Now the BIG news: “US Deaths from Synthetic Opioids Surge by 72 Percent”.
“The number of overdose deaths in the US from synthetic opioids surged 72 percent from 2014 to 2015, according to new data released Friday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The dramatic one-year rise follows a tripling of overdose deaths from opioids from 1999 to 2014, as tracked by the CDC.
The news follows CDC research released earlier this month showing that heroin overdose deaths in the US have reached epidemic proportions, with opioid overdose deaths rising 5,000 since 2014, surpassing 30,000 for the first time in recent history.”
The war on the American people is proceeding according to plan. THIRD WORLD in all but name.

Dark Money review: Nazi oil, the Koch brothers and a rightwing revolution
New Yorker writer Jane Mayer examines the origins, rise and dominance of a billionaire class to whom money is no object when it comes to buying power
“Lots of American industrialists have skeletons in the family closet. Charles and David Koch, however, are in a league of their own.
The father of these famous rightwing billionaires was Fred Koch, who started his fortune with $500,000 received from Stalin for his assistance constructing 15 oil refineries in the Soviet Union in the 1930s. A couple of years later, his company, Winkler-Koch, helped the Nazis complete their third-largest oil refinery. The facility produced hundreds of thousands of gallons of high-octane fuel for the Luftwaffe, until it was destroyed by Allied bombs in 1944. ”

Its typical of western thought to imagine that these tragedies have anything at all to do with Trump or Clinton. It wouldnt matter to them if Minnie Mouse was POTUS they would still be killing in large numbers. The reason? Islamic Extremist Sunni Wahabbis, aka the REAL Islamic state, the oilistan called Saudi Arabia, has been poisoning muslim brains for decades and global jihad is the result. The left and right are in total denial about the scale and organisation or the problem even more than GW. Dont think for a second that America has any say in this anymore, and apportioning blame for these events is as a result of the demonstrated failure of the so called war on terror. This Cult is the ultimate grassroots populist alt right movement, a neofacist state of supposed race free vegans who say that a star man will save them and their family. All they have to do is kow tow to Arabs and a Caliph and they blow themselves up on command and god will love them.
What chance does the west have against this stupidity? Who knows, but this status quo cant remain, and Merkel made things a whole lot worse. It was the most naive act since Eve gave Adam the apple to eat and the results may cast us all back out of this eden we call civilisation.

Hund, he is the same and at the same time different. I feel the guy is smart. If you are going to take the deep state down a notch or two you need insiders. This is a soft coup. Not that if matters to many here because what they are looking for is something you are not going to find in the US hence the Trump criticism.
Trump is going to chart a new course and the course is unpredictable. The current establishment is loath for an outsider to take control. Trump is part of the corrupt system but taking it in a new direction. That direction appear to be nationalist and politically incorrect per the establishment. When I say establishment I mean domestic and international. This is a global establishment anxiety not just American
America will never be great again nor will any nation. We are all swirling down the vortex of decline. It is more a matter of placement. This is likely going to be an amazing process that happens over a time frame most are caught off guard by. I think civilization still has a lot of rope to hang itself with.
This collapse process could drag on for years if we have a Russian detente. I say that becuase any type of biggish hot global war is game over for globalism. I am not sure how this budding Chinese Cold War will play out. I think we all should now be looking in that direction. This could be very dangerous to global economics. Somehow I feel China and the US will not take this new Cold War too far becuase of economics. We are not out of the woods yet with a Russian/US conflict but there is optimism. This is a new direction for different insiders under the banner of a wild card we call Trump.

Is Foggie from Ukraine?

@Hubert – Friday is for 25% Ukrainian.
The rest (75%) is mystery meat still, which he doesn’t want to reveal. And since we are living on a planet where 1+1=2 there must be a good reason for his secrecy. Next he claimed his ancestors to be “Canadian”, which only makes sense if they were Ice Age gate crashers, meaning Asians. But he rejects that. So it is probably 25% Korean, 25% Jewish and 25% Bantu.
Now I would never make a point of somebody’s ancestry (this site is about the somewhat stale topic of peak oil, not genealogy), unless he himself makes a point of somebody else his ancestry, invariably in a demeaning way and attacking western (European) civilization wherever he can, acting as an invisble coward sniper. And only then it becomes interesting what his own background is, just to reign him in a little, not to humiliate all these fine diverse ethnicity’s humanity consists of.
Back on topic, I agree with Davy’s assessment. It is way to early to judge Trump. He is not (yet) a Putin who can do as he pleases. The only capital he has is the passionate support from European America (and potentially their guns). For the moment he is a civic nationalist and still kisses black babies and praises his Mexican workforce, but nevertheless at least wants to halt the demographic decline of the Euro’s, as his lily-white electorate expects him to do.
Most people are opportunists and Kunstler is no exception. Before the election he lamented “where is the deep state when you need it?”, a very nasty remark, hinting at a desired execution. Now that Trump won, Kunstler changed course and will refrain from these kind of remarks in the future.
Trump, who can count to ten, knows that China is the coming #1 power and that the US global empire is a pipe dream. So the logical next step is to make an inventory of potential allies. Enter Putin, Europe already is an ally (vassal really). Trump is even embarrassed by this vassal behavior of Europe and would like them to do more for their own defense (read: wants these lasy a**holes to escape from the comfy vassal status).
What Trump does is like what Britain did, that reigned supreme in the 19th century, like America did in the 20th century, but by 1891 had concluded that Germany was the rising power that began to eclipse Britain on global markets and that they needed to do something about it, namely buddy up with the adversary #1 of 1000 years (France) as well as Russia. The British exaggerated this sensible precaution by aiming to use this coalition, to not only balance but also destroy Germany, ruining Europe future as well as their own for at least a century.
Trump has no ambition to destroy China, but he does resent the free pass the globalist Washington establishment gave to China over the past decades by transfering most of the US industry to China in the anticipation of a global codependency and division of labor where China would do the cheap basic manifacturing and exceptionalist Washington the governing, completely ignoring the interests of their voters. And now the chickens have come home to roost. Trump intends to return a lot of that industry to America to employ the US unemployed. Trump wants to concentrate resources on polishing up America and its infrastructure and is less interested in destroying foreign dragons. The very rise of China of 1350 million will dictate the rise of “Europsphere”, a counter-alliance of European-America, Europe and Russia. The US establishment will attempt to sabotage that program as they will remain programmed to bring the entire world into the hands of the Self-Chosen. Not going to happen. The best they can achieve is recapturing America and have to compete in a multi-polar world. Exactly the vision of Geroge Orwell…

It has been attributed to Winston Churchill to have concluded that we Americans will do the right thing once we have exhausted every other alternative. Well ladies and gentlemen we may very well be at the end of the Ponzi scheme and we picked Trump. For the first time since the Great Depression, Congress may find itself being herded by the President. Get ready for a paradigm shift.
