We have now reached the point of concern: the things being released by Trump and his Cabinet not only threaten BILLIONS of dollars and the policy directives going back decades in some circumstances that need those billions, but even worse these revelations threaten reputations, careers, and the social standing of various deep state players.
People have been assassinated for FAR LESS in America, and here we have Trump and some very accessible and unpopular associates literally making scores of enemies where it is all on the line every moment of every day.
I don't know who it is that is more likely going to be the first target and victim, but short of a secret and unbelievably effective political campaign, I expect the likes of Elon or Patel or RFK to have attempts on their lives made and I expect them soon.
The rest of us should look up to them and emulate! A civil war would beat living in a communist country a 1000 times over! Might as well go on to Heaven if we allow our God-given freedom taken! The government is NOT whom we owe freedom to.
Pardon my boldness but as they say "fools rush in..."
I agree with the post below saying that this article, as it stands, is near-unreadable. The errors are not errors of logic but of style and idiom. However, those can be extremely damaging and are in this case.
I am an accredited (luckily, not by Harvard) translator and interpreter.
Here is my offer: I will do a sample translation of the next article scheduled for posting, if Mr Dugin or a proxy asks me to.
I would like a rough inter-translation, like the one offered here, though full of errors, to save some time and the original.
I think we have an explanation for why Trump has been so attacked in recent years and why they wanted to imprison or assassinate him ! Now it has become clear how many actors are involved (at least we believe so) and are active participants in this disgusting organization, we can see how many senators are spluttering nervously, hysterically speaking, because their involvement is now obvious ! Let's not forget that a cornered rat is the most dangerous, now, as the Chinese saying goes, "we are going to live in interesting times" !
I see an interesting parallel between the Year of the Five Emperors (193 AD) and the political turbulence in America today. The chaos of that Roman period was driven by power struggles, corruption, and shifting allegiances within the military and ruling elite, and civil war—something that resonates with modern concerns about political corruption, justice, and elite influence.
In 193 AD, after the assassination of Commodus, Rome saw a rapid succession of rulers, each trying to consolidate power in a volatile environment where the Praetorian Guard played a decisive and corrupt role. Pertinax attempted reform but was killed for resisting their demands. Didius Julianus effectively “bought” the throne but was swiftly overthrown. Septimius Severus ultimately emerged as the dominant force after defeating his rivals in battle.
If we compare this to the current political situation in the U.S., the concerns about entrenched corruption, institutional resistance to reform, and elite factions maneuvering for control do bear resemblance. The backlash against efforts to expose corruption and restore justice—whether perceived or real—mirrors the kind of elite pushback seen in Rome when power structures were threatened. The Praetorian Guard, in some ways, parallels the deep state, intelligence agencies, or entrenched bureaucracies that can exert control behind the scenes

The Year of the Five—Let It Not Be Now
A Kipling-style poem
193 AD
When emperors fell like the leaves in a gale,
And gold bought a throne for a fortnight’s regale,
The legions stood idle, the tribunes betrayed,
And Rome was a prize for the highest bid paid.
The sword was for hire, the scepter for sale,
While honor was drowned in a flagon of ale.
The Praetors, those watchers, who swore to defend,
Would slay kings in darkness, calling justice their friend.
Yet once there was order, and once there was law,
When Rome had a Senate that men held in awe.
A city of marble, a nation of pride—
Till greed made her hollow, and rot grew inside.
2025 AD
And what of the West, where the eagle still flies?
I am an American who's not celebrating yet. In fact, I'm praying, training and preparing more than ever in anticipation of the collapse that is already happening here. The US dollar is weaker than it's ever been. I don't see how Trump can fix it. Additionally, Zionism is just another form of globalization and that doesn't seem to be leaving the USA yet. However, Americans under age 45 were not brainwashed so much in school and through media to fear being called "antisemitic ". Zionism will die in America as Boomer Americans die. The heresy of Zionism has already peaked.
God, I just learned something MASSIVE today, with this article and a couple of others. Bellingcat Group and Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) are almost identical organizations, same mission, same globalist language that tells the reader nothing about them, both funded by USAID, both started by "citizen journalists" (cough, cough, can anyone say CIA), and both located in AMSTERDAM. What are the FRIGGING odds?????
I am afraid you are correct. I am bilingual (Russian and English) and I kept wanting to correct the errors. The substance is there but too many errors, which the English reader can only guess at, breaking the 'flow' and thus, for many, obscuring the thesis.
I volunteer to proofread and correct the translations on this site as I feel introducing Dugin to the West is essential, if only because the idiots of the CIA-run media have called him silly things such as "Putin's Brain." He is certainly not that as Putin has one of his own, of which the entire West should be jealous.
Here is the offer: I am an accredited (luckily not by Harvard) translator and interpreter and will do a sample translation if Mr Dugin or a proxy will ask me to do it.
I would like a rough inter-translation, like the one offered here, though full of errors, to save some time and the original.
I invite the commenters to go to the website at the end of my comment. It's a company that received over 6 billion from USAID. It's a nothing burger website. CLEARLY, this company is a front for the CIA or similar. How frigging cow, what has the deep state done to us????? https://chemonics.com
After two assassination attempts your point is not new. T is on a roll because the clock is ticking but it already was. He is a disruptor and he will not bend. It is remarkable to see his courage. Even if few people can stand him personally, and if his imperialist ideas are grotesque and provocative, and frankly awful, we have to admit he is no ordinary man. This may inspire many young people just like MLK did in his lifetime (and he wasn’t a saint either). Courage in action. We must believe in that again.
I hope Musk and the rest who are involved with DOGE efforts are well protected. Many patriots have been killed for exposing a fraction of what DOGE will expose. The alphabet soup intel agencies dont take kindly to exposing their criminal activities.
I am a columnist for a free press newspaper in Maine and would like to write exclusively on the findings of the DOGE regarding corruption and eugenics policies. Please advise me on where I can get information. II will also help editors doing the same. I have edited “died suddenly” obituaries and it would be interesting to have a column devoted to the death toll of these dark entities.
Let me first say thank you for Meryl for her absolutely amazing gift for all she does in her quest to get humanity on the right track, and for this forum to connect well meaning souls. Meryl's spirit, enthusiasm, intelligence, curiosity, integrity and open-mindedness are fresh air in these times. The fact that she leaves this comment area open for alternative and contrasting perspectives is probably the best thing she can do in these polarized times. While I agree with a lot in here, I speak up only when I feel the need to counter incomplete, dogmatic or unecessarily polarizing views.
I studied USAID for decades, particularly its operations in Sri Lanka. While it is not all evil, it is, by definition, to "help" countries, often in truly benevolent ways, so they stay or become economically and politically aligned with us - i.e., for US capitalism and dominance. And, unfortunately, that means being in line with the US led world corporate superstructure that dominates almost every country and certainly both our political parties. But here's the thing, as you hear from Senator Chris Murphy below (sorry I could not figure out how to send a link instead), ending USAID would undermine Trump's, the uni-party's, and our corporate deep state goals - that every one of us is now part and parcel of. I am all for it, but that means a weakened state that will translate into all kinds of repercussions, right down to higher prices and lower standard of living.
Everything is two sided. Thinking repubs or demos have the right course is fallacy - only when they find a way to work together will we move forward. When we vote for either of the parties, we are voting for business as usual. Trump and Musk want a different version of this game, but in their image. They are not smart enough to change all the rules and neither of them are guided by integrity. Like Trump, Musk can be made to look good on paper, but everything - from relationships to skylinks - is clearly megalomania and charade. Anyway, here is Murphy on USAID for a more full perspective. (Murphy certainly not perfect but would have been 10 times more effective than Harris, Biden or Trump).
U.S. Senator Chris Murphy:
Over the last week, a shocking corruption has occurred right before our eyes. The richest man in the world, unelected and deeply compromised by his reliance on U.S. government contracts and complicated foreign supply chains, has almost single-handedly dismantled the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the agency responsible for fighting Chinese, Russian, and non-state extremist group influence around the world; protecting America from rapidly spreading foreign viruses; and protecting global stability by responding to famines and natural disasters. Musk’s reasoning is so unhinged — most recently laughably calling USAID a “criminal organization” — as to clumsily mask his likely real motivation: to protect and advance his own personal financial interests.
The dismantling of USAID has been breathtaking in its speed and ferocity. All USAID workers around the world will be placed on administrative leave at the end of this week. The website has been scraped from the internet, removing droves of public data about USAID’s programs all over the world. Finance systems to pay millions of aid workers have been shut down. American staff are stranded in dangerous places like Ukraine, Somalia, and Haiti, cut off from their security portals. The doors of the headquarters are locked, even to members of Congress. The entire enterprise is illegal and unconstitutional. A President — never mind his unelected billionaire backer — cannot shutter a statutorily authorized agency by executive action.
The work of USAID is not charity — it is strategic. Over the past 64 years, the agency has made the United States safer and stronger. As adversaries like Russia and China and non-state terrorist groups use their financial and informational might to curry favor and win allies in the Middle East, Indo Pacific, Africa, and Latin America, USAID is our counterweight. For the past week, Russia has been publicly cheering Musk’s murder of USAID. Why? They know if USAID isn’t helping Ukraine win the war, or stops tracking and answering Kremlin propaganda on Russia’s periphery, Russian influence will grow and American influence will retreat. In the Middle East, USAID’s work to counter Hezbollah is being shut down by Musk, allowing Hezbollah and other terrorist groups to grow their operating space and recruitment.
But the adversary with the most to gain is undoubtedly China. Few countries understand the value of soft power and investing in diplomacy, economic development, and humanitarian assistance better than China does. Between 2013 and 2022, Beijing invested $679 billion in infrastructure projects across 150 countries through its Belt and Road Initiative. It has financed 226 power plants in 64 countries and spent $26 billion on developing telecommunications networks. China is the world’s largest debt collector, holding close to $1.5 trillion in debt over the heads of low- and middle-income countries. The influence gained by these investments means China gets the inside track on contracts for critical minerals and ports and transportation hubs. China wants to completely control the piping of the global economy within the next quarter century, and the erasure of USAID could help make that nightmare a reality. Make no mistake, China is absolutely elated that their primary soft power competitor is choosing to sit this one out. They cannot wait to run laps around us in the Global South and buy up allies in ways the Soviet Union could only dream of.
Why is this happening? It is certainly not because there are major savings to be gained in destroying USAID. It represents less than one percent of the federal budget. The 2017 tax cuts spent more money on handouts for just four companies — AT&T, Facebook, Verizon and Walmart — than the entire USAID budget. No, USAID is being shuttered to benefit Elon Musk personally. Tesla makes half its cars in China, and right now Musk is in a fierce competition with Chinese-government subsidized industries in batteries, solar, and space launches that he is losing. Musk needs favorable treatment from China in order to remain the world’s richest man. It would stand to reason that Musk, who once pledged that his companies would “follow core socialist values” in order to win business in China, is offering up the dismantling of USAID — a constant thorn in Beijing’s side — as a peace offering to get the deals and treatment he needs.
Musk also wants to focus all national security cuts on USAID because he makes most of his money from Department of Defense contracts. In the last 16 years, Musk has made $20 billion from defense contracts. He denigrates any investments in non-military tools so that he can protect his subsidies in the military budget, which shockingly is never the target of Musk’s name-calling.
If USAID disappears, terrorist groups will get stronger, Russia will grow in influence, pandemic disease will spread faster, and China will gobble up key parts of the global economic infrastructure. That’s an unmitigated disaster for the United States. The only interest that will benefit from this catastrophe is Elon Musk’s bank account. The closure of the agency presents not just a constitutional crisis, but a fundamental corruption.
We have now reached the point of concern: the things being released by Trump and his Cabinet not only threaten BILLIONS of dollars and the policy directives going back decades in some circumstances that need those billions, but even worse these revelations threaten reputations, careers, and the social standing of various deep state players.
People have been assassinated for FAR LESS in America, and here we have Trump and some very accessible and unpopular associates literally making scores of enemies where it is all on the line every moment of every day.
I don't know who it is that is more likely going to be the first target and victim, but short of a secret and unbelievably effective political campaign, I expect the likes of Elon or Patel or RFK to have attempts on their lives made and I expect them soon.
I hope all the rats abandoned ship and drown!
The rest of us should look up to them and emulate! A civil war would beat living in a communist country a 1000 times over! Might as well go on to Heaven if we allow our God-given freedom taken! The government is NOT whom we owe freedom to.
The cat is out of the bag now, It would still be pursued, plus it would be too obvious who did it...
I hope that you are wrong.

And what of the West, where the eagle still flies?
Shall we be as Rome, trading truth for our lies?
Shall coin buy the crown, shall law bow to might,
Shall virtue be silenced in shadows of night?
Oh, sons of the fathers who swore to be free,
Remember your oaths and your high pedigree!
No throne must be bartered, no justice be sold,
No people be shackled in hunger for gold.
Lest ruin should claim us, as ruin claimed them,
And liberty perish for folly of men.
The past is a lesson—heed it, and vow:
That was then—let’s not make it now.

Execution is too good for these responsible for the slaughter of over 1 million Slavic lives…
You can't escape the long arm of the law. The GOV'T will catch you if you have done something illegal.
