Hey peeps! 

I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday. Besides wishing you all a Merry Christmas I wish I could send everyone a holiday gift. Some in our community have shared tasty family holiday receipes and some have made suggestions to donate to wonderful causes. I of course share my Christmas action-movie binge which is not a gift but an intense distraction while prepping for joyous holiday activities. Hans Grubber falls so many times in the kitchen every Christmas I cannot even begin to count. Yet there's something I'd like give you this holiday season and that's Time. 

As you set goals for 2025 I suggest you take on the goal of eliminating sensationalism from your news diet. Whether your New Year's resolutions are small, large, or great, this goal is relatively tiny.

Identifying sensationalism in the news cycles will help grow Time. Time you can use for more important activities like saying "Hi!" more often to friends and family, or banking more Time to accomplish larger goals. It is a rare thing that can truly compensate you for your Time.

I will not assume that you cannot identify sensationalism. I'm sure all of you can point to recent examples of sensationlism in the media. Though I do have questiions for you:  How do you deal with sensationlism? Do you simply ignore it? Are you a headline reader who immediately identifies sensationalism? What do you consider sensationalism? How do you categorize it? How do you see past sensationalism read between the lines without actually engaging? How do you eliminate subconscious motivations to engage? 

I know. That's a half-dozen questions that will suck your Time to answer. In truth, I don't want you to answer those questions. I don't want you to answer because there's another half-dozen questions I could ask. Yet, think of what you can do with a bit more Time.

In order to bank your Time in 2025, I wish you to consider what media stories are actually worth your Time. You're above-average so I ask you to identify them. Identify and eliminate. Yes. My gift of Time is a piece of advice. You can accept this tiny gift and you can even re-gift it, but alas you cannot return it. Time is something no one can give back. 

PS. If you choose to reply, I'd be interested in seeing what current media stories you consider sensationalism and a waste of Time. Thanks and all the best, M.

Those that follow Ron Gibson's podcasting archive featuring the Alex Jones Show know Mike Rivero. The RBN and former GCN talk radio host is retiring from radio this week. Friday is Mr. Rivero's last day [affectionally on-air I've called him Mr. Rivero for years].

Mike Rivero is known in Hollywood too. After a stint at NASA (Viking and Voyager) Rivero went to work in Visual F/X, most notably STAR TREK: The Motion Picture (1979), STARGATE (1994) with Kurt Russell, THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW (2004) with Dennis Quaid, and a classic family favorite CONEHEADS (1993) with Dan Ackroyd and Jane Curtain.

While in Hollywood, Rivero called out the fraud surrounding the death of Clinton attorney Vincent Foster in 1993. His outspoken views on the facts of Foster's death caused career issues for him in SoCal's liberal cesspool. Ever forward, Mr. Rivero endured and created the website WHAT REALLY HAPPENED. 

Then almost two decades ago, GCN's Alex Jones recognized Mike Rivero's CLINTON BODY-COUNT. Soon after, Rivero became a regular Alex Jones Show guest and guest host. Then GCN offered Rivero his own radio show completing GCN's powerful Truther lineup.

Weekly Monday through Friday, this lineup featured Dave von Kleist and Joyce Riley's morning POWER HOUR, the ALEX JONES SHOW mid-morning/midday, and the KATHERINE ALBRECHT SHOW (co-author of SPY CHIPS and founding VP of Startpage.com) midday, followed by Mike Rivero's WHAT REALLY HAPPENED and FREE TALK LIVE with Mark and Ian (Free State Project and early BTC promoters) throughout the afternoons and evenings, capping off nights with Jeff Rense (RENSE.COM). In the wake of 9/11, NWO minions were exposed daily like never before. 

After many years on radio and working when possible in visual effects Mike Rivero produced the 45-minute docu-commentary ALL WARS ARE BANKERS' WARS in 2016. Its current IMDb rating is a surprising 9.2/10. Rivero's well-cited video indictment is frequently reposted across all video platforms and social media sites by dozens of free-minded truthseekers (including now below). 

As far as RBN? No doubt Rivero was their greatest draw. After the passing of owner/host John Stadtmiller in 2021 no other RBN personality had the gravitas or alternative media chops as strong as Rivero. Rivero is loved by his regular listeners, many that often call in daily. His wife, "The Lovely Lady Claire" made frequent radio appearances and in many instances, confronted political issues with greater tenacity than Michael. Many listeners wanted to talk to Lady Claire more so than him! Both are wonderful patriotic Americans. RBN is a publicly-funded media organization headquartered in Round Rock, Texas. How the organization will fare after Mike Rivero's retirement only time will tell. 

Mike Rivero announced his retirement from the Republic Broadcasting Network this week. Today, he stated he'll now focus his time on the What Really Happened website, family, and occasional gigs. His kind radio voice and daily empirical analysis of current events will be greatly missed across independent alternative media. 

See you in cyberspace Mr. Rivero. "Because WWIII is a really bad idea"

The Ruse

What is going on is what many notable Ufologists and Conspiracy Analysts have been saying for decades: The day will come when all will be revealed. However, this revelation is not what you think.

A little over a week from now crucial questions will be asked after the Disclosure Project's National Press Club Event on June 12th. Strangely, we'll begin hearing business-oriented questions seeking to uncover the truth about white-collar crimes so vast and unimaginable that UFOs, UAPs, and ETs, will be replaced with accounting and government acronyms like GL and NSA. Apparently, Elliot grew up, but Elliot's handlers got caught stealing Reese's Pieces. 

The United States Government and FVEY government partners have engaged in an elaborate ruse for over a half-century. This deception has led to financial scams totaling trillions of dollars. On June 12th, Dr. Steven Greer and  The Disclosure Project team will allege that FVEY government partners, plus top corporations throughout multiple business sectors, have been hiding exotechnology at the expense of taxpayers. Just last month, the Disclosure Project noted it "will be presenting definitive evidence of illegal unacknowledged black budget projects related to UFO/UAP operations" (Disclosure Project). Then using this exotechnology to grab market share. Schemes of trickle-down economics as in trickle-down technology and patents are being handed out to select corporations. Taxpayers flip the bill for this Black Project R&D and are not reaping the rewards. Others like Stephen Bassett of the Paradigm Research Group (PRG) will support Greer's allegations, and whistleblowers will attest to this unethical practice. 

And That's Not All

Additionally, there's been overcharging skimming billions from government coffers. And the exotechnology is so advanced that it could, in all possibility, solve a myriad of socioeconomic issues besieging humanity. Government officials, corporate executives, and select career politicians have known about these advancements for decades but kept the technology secret in order to reap the riches off ill-gotten gains.

UFOs and alien life. The answer based on the latest information indicates YES. As unbelievable as it may sound, the answer is YES. However, the disclosure of possible exopolitical relationships is somewhat secondary to the Black Project R&D scam. Absolutely, if ties to alien entities are in fact a reality we'll see the greatest headlines of all time. The Weekly World News returns and so does the Page 5 Honey. BUT MEDIA WILL BE USED TO COVER UP THE FRAUD. Of course, at this time the public does not know if extraterrestrial relationships exist OR if alien exotechnology was found on Earth—a type of accidental Weyland-Yutani Corp. or Indiana Jones archeological discovery. However, an article published in World Affairs: The Journal of International Issues points to ongoing exopolitical relations with extraterrestrials. What? Yup.

World Affairs prefaces Michael Salla's 2008 summer article with the following: 

Yes, it's difficult to believe. So couldn't this so-called admission be disinformation?

US Government Public Disinformation Campaigns

Michael Salla is a noted scholar in international politics and foreign policy. Salla has a Ph D. in Government from the University of Queensland, Australia. He is no lightweight academic. His background includes significant peacemaking initiatives.

In the same World Affairs article, Salla provides curious information pertaining to US government public disinformation campaigns that began in the 1950s (maybe even earlier). One national security concern back then was extraterrestrials:

The 1953 CIA-sponsored Robertson Panel delivered a report, the Durant Report, that recommended ridiculing the flying saucer phenomenon and the possibility of extraterrestrial life, for national security reasons. The Report stated:

The "debunking" aim would result in reduction in public interest in "flying saucers" which today evokes a strong psychological reaction. This education could be accomplished by mass media such as television, motion pictures, and popular articles... Such a program should tend to reduce the current gullibility of the public and consequently their susceptibility to clever hostile propaganda (Robertson Panel 1953). 

I never thought the cost of Reese's Pieces could be so much more than a movie theater. I guess I was wrong. Good thing some candies have an incredible shelf life. But ET propaganda has a shelf life of its own.

Propaganda Now!

As I type this up I discover new Paramount Plus+ drops on YouTube. Are you aware that the first season of STAR TREK: Strange New Worlds is now free to YouTube premium members? How nice. I'm not a Trekkie but I enjoy Sci-Fi and good film production. Nothing like clever hostile propaganda to keep you on your toes and your mind somewhere else. 

Hollywood's bread and circus entertainment keeps us from discovering the truth. The Sting with Redford and Newman is a classic. We jump to the Butch and Sundance characters in our minds but The Sting. Wow. What a movie. The plots are similar. Underdog ruffians using their wits to overcome a challenge. But then again the plots are different. The Sting is a revenge plot—using deception to get even. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is a survival plot—the characters created their own Kobayashi Maru. Yet I'm getting a little off track. So I'll bring it home.

Phone Home

In short, taxpayers are being scammed. Disclosure Project 2.0 is exposing a Black Project con job. Alien ETs or not, decades of misappropriation. Passing out government funds to business elites ... like ... dare I say it ... Reese's Pieces.  And all the while a propaganda campaign was employed until "the likelihood of the extraterrestrial hypothesis would be put off to some future date when evidence would be sufficiently overwhelming to remove all possible doubt" (Salla 118). Okay, maybe some UFO disinformation campaigns were done for national security and to protect the public. But in reality, this propaganda strategy provided cover for scams that lasted decades while corporations and certain individuals cashed in. It's what President Eisenhower warned America about—the world about. A military-industrial complex working in hand with a "scientific-technological elite". We've been suckered for decades!

And what's worse... Based on witness testimony it's highly likely that people were murdered to hide the truth. Whatever that truth may truly be ... Once again, Aliens ETs or not we've been ripped off! It's the Sting of All Stings.

As Ike said in his farewell about America's gifted place in history:

Understandably proud of this pre-eminence, we yet realize that America's leadership and prestige depend, not merely upon our unmatched material progress, riches and military strength, but on how we use our power in the interests of world peace and human betterment.

Sounds great Ike. I hear Odessa is nice this time of year.
