    You're referring to Mr. Steele. It's one of those things that sounds great, but can it really be implemented?

    There was an author, Mary Graham, I heard on the radio yesterday. She just wrote a book called Presidents' Secrets about the history of transparency and US presidents. It's quite interesting. I listened to the interview, haven't read the book yet.

    Just making sure, this is what you are referencing Dreamtimer?

    Create the non-profit educational Trump Channel backed up by an Open Source Agency. Clear the existing press area in the White House, turn that into Trump Studios, and offer a daily fireside chat as well as short daily briefs by your principals in turn on each threat, each policy, each budget – bypass the fake news media, educate the public...

    If so that doesn't sound like you... Agreeing with Steele that the media be set aside at the White House, and replaced with a "Trump Studios" to properly educate the public in Roosevelt type fashion?

    It's one of those ideas that sounds like it has good intentions and also sounds like a perfect delivery vehicle for propaganda. I don't know how you can verify or maintain and prove actual transparency. I would love to have it. I know people who think it's inevitable due to technology advances. I don't know.

    No, I'm not in favor of official propaganda, but I'm pretty sure I know some people who are. I'm pretty sure we're the victims of mostly propaganda anyway. Between ads, video news releases, and reality TV, there's not much 'real' left.

    I don't want our media to be set aside. I'd like the sensible rules we used to have limiting ownership in major markets reinstated. Is Trump making any moves to do that?

    I also think the White House treating the press like crap makes us look bad. Some people really like it. I find it embarrassing.

    Ah, thanks for the clarification!

    No doubt we're inundated with propaganda, and from every conceivable angle as you point out. I guess it's just the idea of making it official that gets me, as presently at least, one has to have earned a certain degree of awareness to begin to see it.

    There sure are a lot of ex spooks running around out there telling us what's really going on out there, and what to think about it. Some of whom even tout their vast credentials in psychological warfare, which I'm finding *particularly* fascinating. That's really neither here nor there at this point, just an observation.

    Are we moving from milabs and SSP soldiers to spooks? Maybe this deep state conflict (if it really exists) is being reflected in these new characters.

    http://nnn.is/the_new_media | Paris Swade for Liberty Writers reports, Got News has the scoop and on this Sunday they have reported that the main source of the leaks is allegedly from #NeverTrumper named Kate Walsh. She is the primary person of interest in leaking highly confidential information to the Failing New York Times and other fake news websites, apparently.

    I like ole Nigel, but I also think he needs a Valium script amidst all the current excitement/turmoil. It's understandable the far Left is having a conniption as the far Right finds itself with all the marbles and the bully stick, but can't these guys just accept winning with grace, go about their business, and let their detractors have their say?

    The opposite was happening here in the States 8 years ago, and I don't recall guys like Alex Jones and Nigel Farage having any problem with it what so ever.

    It's a lose, lose. If they accepted with grace, they'd be called wusses, and wimps. Just like the thing with Cenk Uyger and Alex Jones. When Cenk gets mad and yells at Alex he's a crybaby. But if he'd stayed seated and acted with grace, he'd have been called ball-less and criticized for not 'manning up.'

    Right... And so what? Real men (and women too!) don't concern themselves about petty stuff like that. Actions speak for themselves over time, and the wise ones have patience in the market place of ideas. I see a dearth of wise ones in this current geo political equation, on both sides.

    Well in my world anyway, they both could use a Mulligan on that sorry ass episode. Being the gentleman or the statesman should never be out of style, no matter the disagreements.

    The Trumpet is acting well as good actors do. His style is different than previous ones but I have not seen anyone of the past liars arrested. The spraying has not stopped. The fake moon landings have not been called out with arrests. The secret space program has not been revealed. He has not exposed the real identity of past Presidents etc. Hasn't initiated taxes on organized crime, I mean religion.

    He hasn't busted anyone yet. Just saying...
