Self-talk. Visualizations. Bodily awareness. Unconscious thought processes. In our day-to-day course of existence our minds assimilate, respond and react to any number of stimuli from within - and without. But how often do we stop to consider just how we do this and what faculties of apprehension are actually put to use? And do we even have a framework, vocabulary and level of awareness from which to do it? Inner speech (inner monologue), inner vision, sensory awareness, emotions and...

Israel continues its slow-motion genocide of Palestinians, this week brazenly placing an injured Palestinian on the bonnet of a military jeep as a human shield, targeting more humanitarian aid workers, bombing more refugee camps, and bombing more UN buildings. Will Israel soon also invade Lebanon to do to Hezbollah what it has done to most of Gaza: wipe Lebanon off the map? Also on this NewsReal, Joe and Niall look ahead to what promise to be 'furiously' interesting French and British...

Chaotic scenes in Parisian politics last week as French president Emmanuel Macron, the moment EU parliament election results were announced, called a snap election 'to defeat the far-right'. But given the trouncing his party received in the former, how can he expect to fare better in the latter? Our hot take: Macron will remain in the Élysée, refusing to take the hint that the people want him gone. Meanwhile, the stand-off between the West and Russia over Ukraine remains as tense as ever....

The leading candidate to win the next US presidential election is now a 'white-collar criminal and a felon', we're told, on the basis of a farcical 'trial' that saw Donald Trump 'convicted on 34 counts' of paying his lawyer to make some woman he had a dalliance with go away. In 2016, 8 years ago... This trial and its outcome is so obviously politically motivated and 'democratically-concocted' that even Never-Trumpers are reluctant to hammer Trump too hard with it, fearing that it will...

It's sure shaping up that way in Russia's Caucasus neighbor, where the government in Tbilisi is facing a veritable battering ram of Western NGO-activated protests in response to its move to rein in thousands of... those same foreign-funded NGOs. So, Kiev's Maidan movement redux? The country's PM fears this to be the case, telling media that NATO seeks to open a 'second front' against Russia. Meanwhile, multiple 'hits' and plots against various countries' leaders suggest intense interest on...

So you've been 'red pilled'. You're well versed in false flags, deep states, secret governments, and state-sponsored assassinations. You've watched documentaries about stolen elections, the New World Order, child trafficking, and mind control. And then when you were through with those, you read extensively on the criminal acts of intelligence agencies, psychopathy among the elite, exotic weapons, and more. And now you simply know, in your bones, that the reality presented to you on CNN (and...

Nah, not really. Although, that's what they'd all LIKE you to believe. Trust us, you'll know Armageddon is here when it actually happens, and you won't need the media to tell you so. Following Israel's barbaric attack on the Iranian embassy in Damascus two weeks ago, Israel and its Western stooges have practically goaded Iran into 'taking revenge' (while warning its government to 'keep it proportionate'). This finally happened last night, and both sides are claiming 'victory' from it. In...

...but it won't change the outcome of the war. 133 dead civilians mowed down at a concert in Moscow by 4 Tajik gunmen-for-hire. Who paid them? Western media is sure they were 'ISIS', yet they were caught trying to escape to Ukraine. And that this occurred amidst increasing strikes and counter-strikes between Ukraine and Russia, the true motive for this atrocity is clear: to unsettle Russia and provoke Putin into escalating and/or deviating from 'the SMO plan' to demilitarize Ukraine. Also in...

Neo-gnosticism without Gnosis. Gnosis without neo-gnosticism. These are just a couple of the frameworks, dichotomies, and strains of gnosticism making their way into the religious, social, and political consciousness and conversation of today's world through literature, film, and other media. In this follow-up discussion with author and scholar Arthur Versluis, we continue our discussion on his Oxford University Press-published book 'American Gnosis: Political Religion And Transcendence.' We...

Biden's aggressive, hopped-up 'State of the Union' speech inadvertently revealed the state of the American union: fatally fractured. With 10 million migrants pouring into the US during his term, in service of stuffing the ballot boxes and packing the military, this desperate 'Late Rome' attempt to maintain the political status quo in perpetuity is destined to fail. The unanimous self-delusion two years ago that Ukraine was going to 'defeat' Russia has given way to bitter acknowledgment that...
