Trump Leak Now Points To Bezos’ Hidden $600M Deal With Obama CIA To Feed Washington Post
Conservative Daily Post ^ | Feb 24, 2017 | Donna Kay

When writing the 1st Amendment to the Constitution, one area of speech the Founders were specifically interested in protecting was that of a free press. They saw the press as a sort of fourth branch of government, one that would keep the “checks and balances” of the other three branches honest.

However, over time the same press that was given protection has eroded into a propaganda machine driven by money and political agendas of those who own the media outlets. They have crawled into bed with the very entities they are to keep in “check” and bust out if corrupted.

As such is the Mainstream Media today and one the American people no longer trust, and rightfully so given what is being exposed in recent years.

The majority of people do not know Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos purchased the Washington Post and is now the sole owner with no editorial board or ethical review committees to oversee the actions of Bezos as a publisher, much less the courage to stand against the new “boss.”

It begs to question: How is Bezos connected to questionable intelligence leaks in recent months?

What does he have to do with the sudden disruption of web services that kept millions from accessing whistle blowing website, WikiLeaks, during its explosive releases of state department cables?

What is really scary, is that Justice Ginsberg says that every day she reads the NYT and the Washington Post.

If she does then that is really scary. If she doesn’t, it’s because she knows they are propaganda and wants people to trust them. That’s scary too.

Remember back when the invisible hand used that horrific SC church shooting to try to erase anything having to do with the Confederacy? It was a blatant maneuver to erase an important part of US history and culture, with the help of useful idiots such as Nicki Haley. My point? Amazon was immediately on board, refusing to sell the Confederate Flag. hmmmm.......

Keep praying everyone that God will find favor and expose all of these leaks. . .the leakers and leakees. He knows all. . .nothing is hidden from Him. What don’t people understand. He is only a prayer away, in Jesus Name. Glory be to God.

Any contract with Bezos needs to be terminated. NOW! Some suggest it is for cloud services. That is astonishing. The government should be building its own contained and secure services like that. If true, what a security risk! Stunning. Scary. If the Washington Compost knows anything, the rest of the world does too.

How about just disbanding the CIA and starting over. They seem ineffective and duplicative anyhow. Great opportunity for Trump to cut back on the bureaucracy, draining the swamp of vile inhabitants.

Too much inbreeding going on in DC between the media and the intelligence agencies.

They've created genetic mutations of their proper roles.

Note to Trump - end the CIA contract with Amazon, and have the change implemented and monitored by a DOJ-DOD team, which audits before the change what U.S. federal data is on Amazon’s “cloud” and then audits every server on that “cloud” as the data is being removed and purged from its servers.

The First Amendment does NOT confer any special status to a subset of citizens designated as "the press". "Freedom of the press" is just the printing-press version of "Freedom of Speech" and applies equally to all citizens. We all have the same right to publish and speak.

Thank you. I quit reading after the first sentence of this article when that false claim was made.

Just disappointed that it took 34 posts for a FReeper to point out this simple fact.

A CIA contract for $600 million to do what?

Related to this for one thing:

Thanks for posting this. I knew Amazon was doing CIA contract work; didn't realize the time frame for its initiation coincided with Bezos' Washington Post bailout. Not surprising, though--the Post was one of the CIA's key assets for Operation Mockingbird.

PING!!!

Bezos rushed in to scoop up the failing Washington Post for about $150 million. Now we learn he was given in the same time frame a CIA contract worth $600 million.

Article and comments, esp #25, #28, #29. #34, #52, #53

Thanks, Hostage

One thing we can do — actually a couple of things.

1. Cancel your prime subscription to Amazon, and order books at another site. Also merchandise. Try Costco.

2. Secondly, cancel you subscription to the Washington Post, period!!!!!!

A couple of notes.

First, your reaction is a good one. And there are other reactions that are quite ambitious as well.

A boycott of Amazon and WAPO can be felt but not fatal. Tha Amazon experience has many comfortable in their camp. But many will be awake and do like you suggested.

So ‘felt but not fatal’.

Second, understand that the NY Fed, the CIA, Wall St. insiders, the ultra-wealthy liberal progressives are all in cahoots. Sounds like a conspiracy theory but it’s not one.

Here’s evidence:

Amazon’s profit margins are low. They first turned a small percentage-wise profit in 2004. They have not been consistent since. Hence, it would seem to follow that AMZN Bezos would look for large contracts to help stabilize the company.

There’s no doubt that Bezos is a very gifted sales and operations person. But it was not the force of his personality as much as it was his backing.

Note that Bezos is worth around $46 billion. He did not earn that through sales. He is worth that because of Wall St.’s wealth concentrating infrastructure. In other words, he is a Wall St. creation, as is Zuckerberg, as are so many others. There is nothing vital to civilization that these progressives did to earn the fortunes they are rated at.

So a solid observation is that there is a ‘selection process’ to take fairly talented persons and make them obscenely wealthy, much more than is commensurate to their skill set.

That’s not conspiracy, that is observable fact.

Now going back to your suggestion, it can be felt but it is not fatal. To make it fatal would be as tall an order as suggesting that some conservative wildcats infiltrate Wall St. and grab control of the wealth concentrating infrastructure. Such wildcatters would have to be both ‘in the culture’ of Wall St. as well as determined patriots where money, wealth and fame is secondary to the greater mission. That’s asking a lot but such people do indeed exist.

The mission would be to infiltrate and seize control of the wealth system and use it to maintain the comforts that consumers have grown used to while at the same time acting politically in the opposite way as the ultra-wealthy liberal hustlers. About 60 years ago that was how it was. There were Donald Trump types heading up the largest enterprises. They were for the most part conservative, patriotuc, not afraid to say Merry Christmas, and pro-life. Since then the tables have turned. Now it is the time to turn them back.

Some background data leading to an example:

* Kmart has teamed up with Sears; both are doing very poorly
* Walmart is now offering free shipping as a reaction to Amazon Prime’s free shipping. But Walmart does not have the online presence of Amazon.
* JC Penny’s is closing 14% of its stores; doing poorly.

Example: After seizing control of the Wall St. wealth machine, buy up struggling retailers, inject massive amounts of cash in revamping them, turn them into ‘fulfillment centers’ similar to Amazon’s centers and start improving logistics to a goal of outcompeting the ultra-wealthy progressives, then plain and simple they have competition.

Think in terms of a broad outline of a strategy that outcompetes these people. If the goal is to control a civilization, a vast region or space, it is necessary to control high-level banking, a wealth creation machine like Wall St. backed by a central bank, the largest media outlets, the elite educational institutions for recruiting new human prototypes that fit into a conservative matrix, political institutions, courts, independence creating mechanisms, etc.

Liberal progressives control a large part of the above. They are losing some of it now but they will regroup at some point and wait for their moment to retake that which they lost and to expand upon what they control.

Conservatives have plenty of hard-driving smart competitors. I call them wildcatters. They are not necessarily coiffed and trim, or trained at elite universities. They are needed to take on those parts of the wealth creating infrastructure that liberal progressives have been in control of. But where are these wildcatters?

Conservatives are now winning in the political space, the media space, the battle for the minds and hearts of young adults, the philosophical space. But to make the fatal blow to the Left, it requires dislodging them from the wealth creation machine,

Conservatives, smart ones, should ask themselves, is Bezos, Schmidt, Page, Brin, Cook, Gates, Cuban, Buffett, Zuckerberg, Prince Charles, etc. etc. are any of these persons and those like them, are they better than you? Do they possess intelligence that is orders of magnitude above your own?

No, they are not better, more capable people. They are insiders. It really isn’t much more than that.

So where are the conservative movers and shakers? One of them is President. But he’s only one man. Where are hundreds of others? Where are the true patriots? And why are they not at the top?

So yeah, let’s boycott them and make them hurt, but let’s also back our own wildcatters in creating things in parallel competition to those things which they have occupied and laid claim to as their own.

Newspapers were started as political mouthpieces. But now we have the internet to help level the playing field.

And that is exactly why the FERAL Government works to achieve total and complete control of its regulation
