When The Psyops Breaks

Posted on by Sarah A. Hoyt

I read somewhere that Obama had authorized our three letter agencies to run psy-ops on American soil.

If true — I’m not sure how one does that precisely, or why no one made a big stink about it at the time — that is not an admission they’ve got more powerful, but that they’ve got weak enough to need to use the apparatus of state for their gaslighting.

Because the gaslighting was going on before. Just more efficiently. Things like, oh, remember when they convinced the world that Ford, an athlete, was too clumsy to live? or that Nixon was the greatest crook ever to occupy the presidency and had done something so horrendous no one else had even thought about it? how about that FDR was an honest man who had only the nation’s best interests at heart?

And that’s without counting the great deceptions of my life time. There is a reason most Americans think every show should have a gay character, or that races should be represented 50/50. That is the previous gaslighting telling them that.

And sure, there are still people convinced that all illegals are coming in to work, and that they are all a kind of saint because of the gaslighting that still works.

But most of it doesn’t.

It started falling apart during Obama’s administration. Yesterday Dan was watching some movie, and there was an hagiographic comment on Obama and I realized I haven’t heard any of those. Not even that many in his second term, much less after he left office. With Clinton, the glowing comments continued for decades.

I remember they tried to make Obama into FDR, but it didn’t stick. None of it has stuck. With TV, radio, movies, everything trying to prepare for the ascension of Hillary — no? Most of those movies with Madame president? What do you think that was about — and it didn’t work. It still isn’t working. They were willing to keep Biden in place, and they tired the narrative of “he really won the debate” but it didn’t work.

So, when you hear about how popular Kamala is, or how great her polls? Remember that.

It’s all a psyops.

The psyops is in the service of making you believe there was no fraud. You must, in self preservation point out over and over and loudly that fraud is the only way they’ll win. You need to shame the “respectable right” in their attempts to hide the fraud, because, well, gentlemen (and ladies) wouldn’t believe something so uncouth. And they certainly wouldn’t protest.

Be uncouth my friends. The psyops is breaking, and our salvation lies in telling one and all that the king is naked. And he’s an ugly sight. Gigantic, indeterminate gender sibling is ugly and its parent, the state, dresses it funny.

This week they’re going to try really hard to blast the DNC at us from every angle, but already they’re treading Babylon Bee territory, with their free abortions and vasectomies. They have no clue how WEIRD they sound to normal people. Which makes the psyops hard to stick.

Be uncouth. And don’t let them get us mad at each other. They only have one thing they can do now, to try to save themselves, and that’s to get us fighting. Don’t let them.

Be not afraid. They might still fraud their way in. That’s a battle they might yet win. I have a feeling it will just be a more complicated way of losing the war, though.

We in this blog are fairly resistant to psyops, anyway. Just make sure we inoculate others.

  1. I’m not sure how one does that precisely

    Executive orders can be classified, such that they are not public. If one looks at a list of Presidential Executive Orders they are numbered, and the numbers skip a lot. The in-betweens are not skips, they are the ones not public.

    1. Of all the things that need severe limits imposed on them, EOs are high on the list (in my view, either tied with or immediately after term limits for congresscritters)…

Which is, in theory, part of the executive branch of government and operates on authority delegated by their boss, the President, who should be able to rescind or modify that authority as necessary. If not, the various government departments run amok, trampling The People’s rights and destroying the nation.

        1. Well the most basic change needs to be getting the Civil Service Act declared unconstitutional, at least as far as giving the Executive back it’s hire-or-fire rights.

          Under the current system the Executive is not actually in change of the Executive Branch, and the deep state grows and metastasizes under the “you can’t touch this” civil service system. The spoils system certainly had issues, but at least it was accountable to someone who was elected. Not so now.

          Do that, and require an actual budget, with no giant omnibus appropriation bills, every year from Congress (you have one job…), and much would be improvable. Under Civil Serviice and Continuing Resolutions, nothing can control the agencies.

        2. Problem is, the agencies are ALREADY amok, have been for decades (I know, I work for one! Though at my end of stuff we are understaffed and underpaid for the work they expect from us–my solution is purge all the really stupid regs) and in the meantime, the EO has become essentially imperial fiat–a way for the pres to do an end run around Congress passing actual laws and/or a way to stick it to his rival/predecessor (Looking at you, Brandon–but then, if Trump hadn’t done the border stuff via EO, it would have been a lot harder for Brandon to UNdo it via EO.) As said in the other reply, get rid of the Civil Service Act, etc. I’d also say that proposed laws need to have some kind of page limit or other way of getting rid of all the damn unconstitutional pork they like to sneak in. (Or just outlaw the pork). Finding a way to ensure that congressmen actually READ the crap they’re voting on would be nice–but that might be expecting too much of some of their intelligence levels…

            1. That would go a long ways. And no, it doesn’t ‘grant dictatorial powers to the President’. First, it’s a negative power — the President can only veto what the Congresscritters submit, not create laws out of thin air. Second, they can override any veto with a 2/3 majority of both houses.

              Of course, they’d have to put their names down as specifically supporting the item in question. And a lot of those items are highly questionable. No more “I only supported it for the good parts!”

              It would also eliminate the benefit of bundling a huge amount of unrelated pork on an all-or-nothing basis into bills that otherwise serve some useful purpose.

    2. For example the Memorandum that Truman issued establishing the NSA was classified and I’m not sure it has been fully declassified to this day. Thus the NSA itself was black (i.e. didn’t exist) officially until sometime in the early 1980’s. I think the CIA charter similarly has large classified sections. Theoretically the NSA and CIA are forbidden from operating in the US with counter espionage (and later counter terrorism) being FBI jurisdiction (although this may have been due to J. Edgar Hoover having dirt on various politicians and wanting the turf), There is a gray area surrounding tracking of US citizens interactions in foreign countries or with foreign persons who are being watched. I believe the Church committee exposed cases where Jane Fonda and John Kerry were being surveilled in foreign lands dealing with North Vietnamese Government personnel. This to me does seem valid but there were other more egregious misbehaviors. The NSA/CIA/FBI/ETC have been at this for a LONG while. And oh the press was VERY buddy buddy in the 60’s and 70’s to the CIA providing cover for agents. So no surprise there are still high level connections there.

      I will note that some of the EO number skips may be due to rescinded EO or expired short term EO being removed from the list. but yeah I suspect most missing ones are classified secret or above.

  5. They aren’t weird. Not in the ways that they should be weird.

    They’re damaged. In ways that are very difficult to explain to the mundane out there. Because they’ve never encountered this kind of mental illness, or at least not on this scale. They’re very good at hiding it, masking it, pretending that their issues are just quirky.

    The problem is the same as we’re seeing in Hollywood. We can accept their quirkiness…if our face isn’t rubbed in it. When entertainers got access to social media and didn’t have someone managing their image…just how wrong they were got out very, very quickly. Many of these politicians would be happy to live on a college campus forever, as long as somebody else was managing the outside world they pretend to understand. But they aren’t-and we’re seeing the results every day since the Clinton Administration, since the Obama Administration, since we were stuck with the Crow Flu…

    When these things fall apart, they’re going to fall apart bad and hard.

              1. It’s because Biden had so publicly deteriorated so badly that claiming he won after Democrats pulled their standard fraud shenanigans would be to unbelievable to too many people. The entire point of the media coverage of Harris is to make the fraudulent results plausible.

                The entire reason Democrats keep saying that Harris will give specific policy positions after the election is they know she can’t win an honest election if people knew those positions beforehand; again, they need to keep a stolen election’s results plausible, to avoid mass upheaval.

                Anyone who pays attention knows their plan is to go full commie. Harris, idiot that she is, is a true believer, and her price control plan is the one her father got implemented in Jamaica with disastrous results in the 1970s. Walz is as as much a Marxist as Harris.

                Exactly. They gave up on him. So the fix isn’t as “in” as our worst fears. They need a more plausible candidate. In which case they failed, hugely.

                I can’t counteract any cheating plans they have. I’m in Oregon. While there are rumors of a toss up in Oregon (please!). After OR 114 I can’t believe Oregon will go GOP. OTOH maybe those in the election offices ignore their “betters” and let the mail-in-ballots prevail and don’t lean on the scale. Enough people appear to be angry at the swap and no-votes Kamala (primary votes for Biden are NOT primary votes for her, he could have changed VP’s at the convention), despite the warm hugs at the DNC this week, that it is possible they won’t follow orders. Between that and the voter rolls cleanup elsewhere, maybe the fix isn’t as in as they hope.

You’d think that if they’re looking for a First Minority to Do The Thing and be a shining example to everyone who maybe thought people like them had no chance, they might want that person to be an example of someone who is *good at the job* while being the first. Instead, it’s like they purposefully select against competence.

      Well, not purposefully, but systematically, that is exactly what they’re doing. They only accept Good Leftists into their unofficial minority advancement program, so the entire process selects for people who are good at looking pure and playing mean-girl games. And here we are…

      All you need to do to understand what the …heck the international relations apparatus is doing now vs. Russia is realize that the same junior swamp denizens back in the Cold War are now senior swamp denizens, and, then as now, they and all their underlings’ continuing careers depend on Russia Not Losing. All else, including the National Interests of the United States of America, are subordinate.

      Look at everything they do under that light and suddenly much makes perfect sense.

    5. We won the economic war, but we hardcore lost the information war. Were never really even in it.

      It may actually be a miracle that Reagan was able to finish off the Soviet Union, considering that all the Right-Thinking People were absolutely sure communism would win. But…maybe that’s why he was able to do what he did; pretty much nobody, and that goes double for the self-anointed aristoi, thought the Soviets were as weak as they were. They were sure he’d fail and the communist system would prevail, so if they couldn’t keep him from wasting his time trying, well… (and then, *surprise*!)

      1. Eh, the Soviet Union was doomed to collapse without the support of their greatest enemy, the US. All Reagan had to do was…stop sending shipments of food and money. The cracks were already there–and widening (thank you, Xerox)–it was just a matter of time. Communism and all its forms never has, and never will, work. China is beginning to fall apart, but they still have Western media slobbering all over them to help prop up their regime (also China is weird and always has been, so they do things a bit differently–but it’s still only a matter of time before it collapses there, too)

        I swear, the Cold War couldn’t have happened without the US happily supporting the commies with one hand while “fighting” them with the other…

  12. At this point the psyops are so bad the Norks are taking notes on what not to do. This woman is not a role model. She makes all women look bad when used as an example. Her crude and childish speeches are the kind of thing I would have seen in junior high papers that were turned in at the last minute with the ink still wet.

    Folks, I’ve seen better psyops in grade school softball matches. Her debate performance was beaten like a rented mule by the ones that got beaten like a piñata of the girl’s ex by the Don. She only beats Basement Dweller McPoopypants by virtue of being not senile. She’s otherwise just as dumb.

    She evidently forgets what she’s trying to say, just like he does. She hasn’t got a clue about anything of import, just like he does. She follows her handler’s playbook (the talking points), but tries to put her own stupid spin on it, just like he does.

    She’s… look, I don’t want to insult the ignorant and the mentally challenged, but she’s making them look bad. Ignorance is curable and the mentally challenged can be adorable people, but this dumb b!tch is willfully ignorant and bullheadedly, stupidly mean. She fights like a dumb girl that got called out on her own idiocy and her staff from before the makeover bloody well hated her, and you know that takes some doing.

    I know that political makeovers are a thing and we’ve had frogs dressed in tutus and glitter makeup for damned decades now, but this is gotten beyond the event horizon of dumb and is well into uncharted territory. I’m convinced that some people follow her just to see what foolish idiotic thing she’ll get up to next.

    May Himself grant us grace, for I am dead certain we shall need it. Hold strength in your hearts brothers and sisters and grab an airsick barf sack if you feel the need. I’m of the feeling that the waters our little skiff of State are sailing into are about to get a mite bit choppy directly.

  13. My specialty in the Army was — guess what? — Psychological Operations. Did four tours in Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantánamo, and back to Iraq. We covered all the different areas of influencing a not-necessarily-friendly population, and I personally took part in more than a few of those. So I am, you could say, familiar with the concept.

    One of the first things we were taught: psyops could NEVER be run on the American public, or any American population for that matter. And the thing immediately after that? if any such thing WAS being done, it was called a different name. Because running psyops on Americans is illegal.

    So, no, this isn’t a big psyops campaign. That’s against the law. They may be doing ALL THE SAME THINGS, but it’ll be called something else.

    “Fact checking”, for instance. “Combating misinformation”. “Mainstream reporting”. “Legitimate journalism”.

  14. A few rough thoughts:

    It has been said DC is Hollywood for ugly people. Ponder, then, a Hollywood where actors decide they don’t need scriptwriters or directors, because they are really really smart as well as being photogenic, and can just do it all themselves. Possibly some are Orson Wells and can, but the bell curve rules all, so vastly most are not. Yet they are really really smart, and nobody can tell them what to do. They are too smart to allow that to happen, and they now have the power through money, provided by some people who recognized how really really smart they are and told them so.

    Would we, the vast unwashed masses outside of the Hollywood unreality field, not get worse and worse disasters presented to us with the demand we applaud and cheer and go along with the idiotic whims? The posturing talentless fools’ productions delivering more and more dreck, destroying existing content and leaving only chaos? And any criticism countered with epithets, “hoarders and wreckers”, “basket of deplorables”, “toxic fans”, “right wing extremists”, “food price gaugers”?

    This inmates taking over the asylum effect is what a growing portion of DC looks like to me, with the power brokers and deep state professionals and men behind the curtains losing control of their assets, watching them go rogue and do increasingly dumb stuff while madly leaking the gaslighting to the old media outlets to try and cushion the impact.

    And they keep having to up the level of the gaslighting, even though it just makes it more and more obvious, because the rogue assets keep doing increasingly stupid stuff. But it’s working less and less well.

    And when it falls apart, there will be troublesome times indeed.

    1. It’s rather like the German war propaganda in 1914. As Chesterton put it:

      But the Prussian rhetorician had two incompatible sentiments in his mind; and he insisted on saying them both at once. He wanted to think of an English Army as a small thing; but he also wanted to think of an English defeat as a big thing. He wanted to exult, at the same moment, in the utter weakness of the British in their attack; and the supreme skill and valour of the Germans in repelling such an attack. Somehow it must be made a common and obvious collapse for England; and yet a daring and unexpected triumph for Germany. In trying to express these contradictory conceptions simultaneously, he got rather mixed. Therefore he bade Germania fill all her vales and mountains with the dying agonies of this almost invisible earwig; and let the impure blood of this cockroach redden the Rhine down to the sea.

    The Democratic platform was released last night for the Convention. And in their infinite wisdom, no one thought to reread the platform at the last minute and look for any issues that might have been missed in earlier passes, or popped up in the meantime.

    As an example, let’s say that your party changed its presidential candidate between the time when the Platform document was written, and when it was released. And your Platform document has multiple named references to the party’s presidential candidate. Yes, the Dem Platform makes multiple references to what will happen during Biden’s second term in the White House, and apparently none to the future Harris administration.

Maybe then we can get actual election reform passed and, at least for national elections, made mandatory nationwide – paper ballots, hand count with multiple observers, no mail-in except for military and dips stationed overseas, scrap all voter rolls and re-registration before every national election (yes, every 2 years), and voter ID, both to register and to vote. That should go a long way toward securing actual honest elections for decades, if not longer.

While the breach occurred at the end of 2023, the data started appearing for sale online in April 2024. 

            Editor’s Note[Neely]

            National Public Data is downplaying the breach. The data posted by USDoD for sale was analyzed by Troy Hunt (maintainer of HaveIBeenPwned) found the data contains 134 million unique email addresses, as well as criminal record data for 70 million of those addresses. Access Data Privacy analyzed the data and found as many of 272 million unique SSNs, many of which are no longer living. While there is precedent for changing the amount of data exfiltrated as the investigation proceeds, it’s important to get this straight rapidly, particularly when others are analyzing the data and find a discrepancy with your reporting. While this gets sorted, double down on ID protection/restoration services and don’t forget to freeze your credit.[Frost]

            The current read on this is that the company is “unsure” of how many records have been stolen. They claim that only 1.3 million (instead of 2.9 billion) records were taken. According to reports from Troy Hunt, 134 million email addresses are in the dump. This doesn’t mean that all the data is from the same place, so there is still speculation about this entire breach. One to watch. Is this the fourth or fifth time our social security number data has been breached? I lose count.[Dukes]

            Well that was a bit of a rounding error by National Public Data. Still, its 1.34M people affected that had little say in how their information was collected and used. Perhaps it’s time to regulate data brokers and ‘for Pete’s sake,’ let’s pass a national data protection law.

            Well that was a bit of a rounding error by National Public Data. Still, its 1.34M people affected that had little say in how their information was collected and used. Perhaps it’s time to regulate data brokers and ‘for Pete’s sake,’ let’s pass a national data protection law.

          3. WP ate two replies, so let’s try a variation – here’s the latest NPD news:

            In a filing with Maine’s attorney general, background check company National Public Data confirmed a December 2023 data breach, but says that the compromised personally identifiable information (PII) affects just 1.34 million people, not the nearly 3 billion initially reported. While the breach occurred at the end of 2023, the data started appearing for sale online in April 2024.

            1. And an expert analyzing:

              National Public Data is downplaying the breach. The data posted by USDoD for sale was analyzed by Troy Hunt (maintainer of HaveIBeenPwned) found the data contains 134 million unique email addresses, as well as criminal record data for 70 million of those addresses. Access Data Privacy analyzed the data and found as many of 272 million unique SSNs, many of which are no longer living. While there is precedent for changing the amount of data exfiltrated as the investigation proceeds, it’s important to get this straight rapidly, particularly when others are analyzing the data and find a discrepancy with your reporting. While this gets sorted, double down on ID protection/restoration services and don’t forget to freeze your credit.

        1. Mine was a hack of the Home Depot card readers. Got credit monitoring for a few years, no bad actors bothered. After that, we locked down for the reporing agencies, and so far, have not needed to unlock for checks. (I might possibly have forgotten to record the password for one of them, but nobody’s complained about not getting answers.)

          OTOH, our credit history is now booooring. One active credit card account, and I don’t think I ever closed out one that’s been sitting dormant for 25(?) years.

          Local vendors use word-of-mouth for big ticket customers. Siding company talks to the plumbing company who talks to the roofing company and so on. Not necessarily huge purchases, but when it’s in the multiple thousands (or low tens of thousands), such validation helps in a small county.

          1. We are down to 4 cards. One is specialty card, only have for the 5% auto deduction for ebooks (also has 1% reduction for anything else, but why?). Another because the only way to pay for one service with credit without giving direct access to banking account (plus 4% kickback on groceries and fuel, which can used to pay down said service bill). The 3th, rarely used, is tied to banking account (used so little that too often when do use it is out of date, new cards are not sent automatically, have to remember to go get them). The 4th is the one we use for everything else.

            None of the other cards we’ve had (GMC Visa – 5% kickback upto $??? for purchase of GMC/Chevy brand, yes used the kickback a couple of times, but not buying Chevy’s, anymore, so why? USB REI – REI kickback, yes kickback bought equipment we might not have bought, but have all the equipment needed, so why? Beaver card – pre-we got the kickback, but Oregon State did, and besides I was paying for UofO books, tuition, and fees, with it, so Win! and others pre-kickback days, as well as specialty cards, Penny’s which we seem to get “new” every two years or so.) have ever been cancelled by us. All cancelled by the issuers because hadn’t been used in X (varies) years. Always get warned that “if not used will be cancelled”. Cards still in force but not used, arrive. never get activated, and go into safe storage. Eventually I do a storage clean out and shred any out of date not-activated cards. Let us just say our credit report is superb and thick (unlike son’s whose is superb but thin).

            Other than buying vehicles, or switching phone careers, neither of which we are doing anytime soon, credit reports can be locked down. House stuff, like roof is temp lien against house. House paint would have been except painter was golfer with hubby, we paid for the paint. Counter tops went right to the main credit card (while the supplier/installers did not get paid right away, the middle man, CC “sponsor” held their money, and our kickback, until everything signed off on. Anyone right now that wants to offer credit but won’t because credit locked down, we don’t want it (also proof that locking down works). I at least have our passwords, both locked in a safe location as well as entered in KeePass password protected. Although we too are locked out of one of our accounts for reasons (tying monitoring to account oops on “whose primary” on one an account question. What? We’ve been married for 45 years. I don’t remember who was primary on a closed account.) Someone has to call directly to unlock it. Not bothering unless absolutely needed.

  24. Here’s more psyops for you. Polling. Kamala’s ahead or tied with Trump. But you also have this – Trump is polling better with individual groups than he ever has. So which is it? Who actually knows. Best to ignore all polling, stay focused, and work hard to elect.

    Trump’s 2024 YouGov polling numbers are blowing his YouGov 2020 numbers out of the water:
    Hispanic: 32% in 2020 -> now 41% in 2024
    Black: 9% -> 17% (almost double!)
    Men: 44% -> 54%
    Women: 37% -> 44%
    Seniors: 45% -> 57%

    2. “Ignore the bird. Follow the road.” :-D

      Polls are a shiny illusion made up from bullshit. If not, why won’t they show their analysis techniques and selection criteria? Like all those ‘scientific studies’ that don’t disclose the data, the assumptions, or the methodology.

      1. And remember the “experts”. “Studies show…” and “Experts say…” are equally reliable; zero continues to equal zero.

        As you say, show me the damned data, assumptions and methodology, and the funding source. Cui bono?

  25. Dear Liberals;

    Kill Trump and he becomes a martyr, Immortal, an inspiration to young men and women every where. Kids will start wearing Trump shirts instead of Che shirts. When that happens you will realize that it is you who are the Empire, The Dark Side, Evil, when you wake up to that, some of you will be horrified to make that conclusion and will turn away, or try to. The Devil does not like to be ignored and lets go very reluctantly. Others like that insipid character Vader will embrace the evil, drunk on its false power they will become the evil they supposedly fought against, embracing their own insanity and delusions. No matter you are losing control and starting to panic dancing on a powder keg with sparks of lies and distrust. Lies and distrust is always evils playbook, the Biden Coup has also added to that distrust, growing it, magnifying it. Don’t you see, they can no longer trust each other, for who is next? Such is always the end when you make deals with the devil. To all you who have never know the phrase here it is for you. ‘The first rule of making deals with the Devil is DON’T”. Now back to our regularly scheduled pablum for weak minded, the rest of us are preparing for what is next. While playing PsyOps bingo with their programs, reminds me gotta order more Tequila and limes along with some gun oil. Keep your powder dry.
