Behind the Headlines with Paul Dragu

I was working as a delivery driver for an auto parts store when planes hit the World Trade Center towers. I didn’t keep up with current events at the time, but like many Americans, I was glued to the news that entire day.

Also like many Americans, I knew things would never be the same again.

September 11 triggered a 20-year military escapade into the Middle East that piled onto our national debt and stirred more hatred among Arabs toward America. It also conveniently served as an excuse for the government to pass legislation that allows our spy agencies to legally snoop on law-abiding Americans willy nilly, which continues to this day.

Moreover, 24 years later, accusations that circumstances surrounding that awful day are not what we’ve been told continue surfacing. The most explosive and worrisome is the very credible charge that U.S. military intel knew of terrorists’ 9/11 plans ONE YEAR prior, and yet the government did nothing to prevent it.

Recently, one of the most credible sources of these damming charges comes from a former high-ranking congressman who claims to have documentation and testimony corroborating this point as well as others, including one alleging the CIA knew Osama bin Laden wasn’t in Afghanistan at the same time U.S. troops were sent there to look for him.

The truth about 9/11 is probably too terrible for most Americans to accept. But it’s not necessary that all Americans wake up from their stupor of naivete and stubborn denseness. History is shaped by the few who engage while the rest of the world follows along the paths cut by the trailblazers.

Woke ideology is a lethal mind disease. In the case of the Nashville school shooter, it led to the death of seven people, including the shooter.

The FBI recently released the killer’s journals—it’s more than 1,000 pages long—and its contents verified what conservative media suspected all along: the Nashville school shooter was obsessed with gender ideology, the same poison they’ve been pouring into the minds of Western Civ for years.

But the killer not only hated her sex—she hated her own race and her country.

The Nashville school shooter was a product of woke ideology.

That poison turned her into a homicidal lunatic.

Eggs are selling for an average of $5 a dozen. In response, the U.S. government is telling people to get their own chickens.

Well, kind of.

On Feb. 26, the USDA announced a plan to reduce egg prices. USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins laid out a five-pronged attack that includes making it easier for people to keep their own egg-producing chickens.

Rollins’ plan doesn’t elaborate how the USDA will “minimize burdens” so consumers can more easily harvest homegrown eggs, but the fact that the government is telling people to do something that fosters self-sufficiency is a good sign that we actually have someone in government who cares about our well-being.

Speaking of self-sufficiency, we should all be more independent.

Donald Trump is the president again. And the Left is accusing him of being an authoritarian—again.

But let’s step outside our tribal echo chambers, look at the man’s actions, and try to understand as best as we can both sides of the argument.

It isn’t compassionate to fuel a war half a world way with money we don’t have to continue the slaughter of thousands of people unlikely to prevail while the possibility of a ceasefire dangles before us all.

It is also not in the best interests of the citizens of the United States, who would benefit far more from a ceasefire.

Ukraine is thoroughly corrupt, not unlike Russia. Former Zelensky officials are penning anonymous articles describing the nation’s further descent into tyranny. Videos of Ukrainian men being snatched off the streets by Zelensky’s goons are spreading on the internet like wildfire.

Also, even if a ceasefire is temporary, it provides much-needed time for the Europeans to learn how defend themselves again so they can defend their own continent.

Our main threat comes from a network of internationalists who have asserted overwhelming control over finance, corporatism, media, government, education, and academia. These people are trying to force the entire world into one superseding global government that overrules the sovereignty of every nation. They have used their significant influence over the media to keep the public from knowing this. But now no one believes them anymore.

What happens next?

I must admit, this one wasn’t on my radar. But given the level of criminality the people in charge have been capable of, it’s worth asking: Is our gold still at Fort Knox?

Since the end of the Cold War, U.S. politicians have convinced the American people that perpetual war is the price for spreading “democracy” and making us safe at home.

Among the biggest supporters for endless wars has been Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell. Well, now he’s retiring, and based on is farewell speech, frustration with the GOP’s growing anti-war positions may be part of his reason.

But how much “democracy” have we spread abroad?

How much hatred has U.S. occupation inflamed?

And how has this made America safer and more prosperous?

The world is in a fight over truth. VP JD Vance told Europe’s effeminate soft tyrants to stop censoring speech and violating the basic liberties of their citizens. When Secretary of State Marco Rubio defended Vance’s speech, a CBS anchor then said that too much free speech led to the genocide of Jews. In this episode, we break down how the Nazis operated like the U.S. Deep State and European Censorship Complex.

Over the last 10 years, Americans have been waking up to the fact that all is not as they’ve been told.

Among the most shocking of wake-up calls is the sad truth that elements within their government have been behind some of the most sophisticated and aggressive propaganda campaigns. This is especially true regarding all things Covid.

The Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) recently revealed that news outlets claiming to be wholly independent have raked in millions through a slew of government agencies.

The obvious question is: What does the government get in exchange?

While all this is coming to light, in this video I go back 100 years, highlighting various propaganda campaigns launched by the U.S. government.

Notes

In 1967, the CIA sent out classified document number 1035-960 with instructions to agents on how to propagandize Americans into believing that JFK was killed by a lone, crazed gunman. In the memo, agents are instructed to use their friendly contacts in elite media to get this narrative out. Check it out HERE

On October 30, 1993, The Washington Post published an op-ed by then-senior editor Richard Harwood titled “Ruling Class Journalists.” Harwood revealed that many of the most widely read newspapers and magazines in America were in the propaganda business. Read it HERE
