Bright Army!
It’s been a few weeks since I’ve managed to get anything out on this publication, and for that, I apologize.
Of course, if you’re ever feeling like diving into some Burning Bright content, the Bright Archives are always overflowing. In fact, lately, I’ve found myself going through older pieces on this publication, searching for threads I dropped, and even picking up a few I didn’t even recognize at the time I began spinning them.
While I can’t promise you this Brief is going to be completely Brief in terms of word count, I am committed to trying to carve out an identity for the Bright Brief that stands separate from the features, which, if you haven’t noticed, has been a bit of an issue of mine.
Take a gander at the last few months of writing, and you’ll see that there’s nothing particularly Brief about the Briefs, nor long about the features. Each becomes what it becomes, because that’s the way I write.
That said, one limitation I think I have in this particular publication is an inability to clone myself … which is really just another way of saying, I have no time. Rather, I haven’t been able to MAKE enough time to write five special features a week, and so, when I do burn the midnight oil and put something together for you folks—really, to give the building, rattling, thrumming thoughts that never seem to quit my waking mind room to run—I end up following ONE big, albeit multi-layered idea through to its endpoint, which leaves so many fragments still left unclaimed.
This is what it’s like being inside my head. Threads, fragments and speed. Ever-turning, everlasting. If the ideas don’t come out in some form, whether it’s written or spoken, they build, and change, and merge, and multiply.
That’s not a bad thing for those who like my musings, no matter the form you like to see them in, but it can be a bad thing for my own psyche.
And so, while the special features will absolutely continue, I hope this NEW format for the Bright Brief affords me the opportunity to get some “smaller” thoughts out on these digital pages that I otherwise might not devote or find the time to put into feature form, and in so doing, I hope to hit more theaters in the Info War than I usually would.
If you enjoy this more quick-hitting, free-flow format, your Paid Subscriptions are always immensely appreciated, even though everything in this publication is free and will remain so as long as I have the life in me and the muse flitting about me.
So far, the folks at Substack have rebuffed all attempts at cancellation, and remain committed to independent creators like me.
And if a subscription is too much, consider Buying Me a Coffee for the trouble.
Now … onto the Brief.
Like Butter … Scraped Over Too Much Bread
That’s what the Info War feels like to me, at present, hence the Bicameral and cheeky title for this particular Brief.
While there is more ratcheting tension than ever in the Collective Mind that is the ultimate battlefield and end goal of the Info War, there’s a LOT of, well … sameness about it all, wouldn’t you say?
We’ve got another election to end all elections coming up, another fake candidate to endure, and fake news that can’t quite decide which side of fake it wants to reside on, presumably until the trials for treason begin.
It can be alternatively gratifying for Info Warriors, Anons and Truthers like us to recognize the reruns as they’re occurring, and to separate the falsity from the realm of the real, and yet, it can still be frustrating, and even boring, waiting on the edge of the drop, when I suppose it feels exhilarating, or perhaps existentially terrifying to the sleepers.
Still, I’ve come away with these recent patterns feeling more encouraged than ever that, no matter what happens on November 5—rather, no matter what we’re TOLD happens—we’re going to come out on the other side as victors … even if it takes us some time in getting there.
And if you doubt that, Donald Trump is ever and always our signal in the noise, even if the signal he often chooses to put out is as maddeningly Bicameral as I’m wont to be.
“Remember this. We’re gonna win. I think we’re gonna win, maybe bigger than anyone understands.”
Exhibit #1,000 of the Trump bicameral.
This statement can be taken in any number of ways, and none of them feel particularly good if you're a member of the Deep State communist machine.
For starters, the surface level appeal to normieville is that we're going to win the election. With some caveats, Trump said this in 2020, and was wrong, but only in a manner of speaking.
He's also seeded the narrative that the establishment will, once more, try to steal this one, just like they (were allowed) to steal the last one. If you understand the point of the Great Awakening and the Devolution Operation, then you understand the capital WHY of allowing the steal.
Finally, taken in the context of Trump's double-posted Cease & Desist letter he put out in September, "maybe bigger than anyone understands" takes on added significance.
Some of my peers believe the steal will be temporarily successful.
Others believe it will be thwarted early on.
Either way, transparency is the only way forward. And I think we’ll get it.
Even if we have to wait a while.
Pardon Me, Hunter?
Mileage varies on just how deep the Biden Op goes.
There are some who believe Hunter has stumbled his way ass backwards into one of the biggest Deep State crime family disclosures of all time ... and there are others who believe it's impossible that everything from the infamous laptop to Ukrainian Quid Pro Quo found its way into the public zeitgeist with such serendipitous timing.
For me, it's relatively clear that the #OurBoyBlue moniker I bestowed upon Joe Biden is far from a joke, as these Scranton boys have been the best foils Donald Trump could have asked for during this accelerated era of awakening.
(For more on the “point” of the Biden Admin, check out the Layer Cake series on Burning Bright …)
For over a year, I've suggested that a pardon of Hunter Biden was in the offing by Donald Trump, and I haven't been alone.
Doing so would not only provide fresh tinder for the "Hunter flipped" crowd, but also act as Narrative Shielding to the masses for Trump 2.0.
As I've said many times, to unify the nation, Trump needs to be seen as a builder, not a conqueror.
War of Stories.
Will the Real Satanic Pedophiles Please Stand Up?
Well ... would you look at that.
The "proofs" are coming so fast and furious these days, it's difficult to keep up with them.
We're in the middle of a period of mass convergence, and yet, only Anons can currently see the whole picture coming together, because we were given many of the key pieces almost a decade ago.
This suggests a few (obvious) things to me:
The revelations regarding Diddy are being planted (by us) into the Collective Mind in order to seed the ubiquity of trafficking and blackmail operations into the music and entertainment industries ... something the Epstein-Maxwell deployment already seeded re: politicians.
The fact that those most directly implicated are loudly and proudly endorsing Kamala has the feeling of a controlled exposure and demolition, germinating the planted seeds with paint-by-numbers simplicity.
The original revelations of the Info War (Pizzagate, Haiti & Crimes Against Children,) are being prepped for Harvest/mass awakening.
Prepare.
October Surprises?
Are we being prepped for the mother of all October surprises involving Kamala Harris and her Biden Admin cohorts?
Observe the following Narrative Timeline, and consider the "Iranchurian Candidate" scenario ...
Iran hacks the Trump campaign, obtains opposition research on behalf of "unknown entities."
Trump team holds onto this knowledge until strategically pertinent to deploy.
Kamala campaign claims it was hacked, too, while MSM panics about having been offered access to politically radioactive material.
Someone tries to kill Donald Trump in Butler, PA ... and recent reports tie said attempts to "Iran."
Hillary Clinton warns of October Surprise involving Kamala, tells Americans not to believe it.
Iran obtains "leaked" Israeli MIL INT about strategic operations planning, which Israel claims could only have come from someone near the US Chain of Command.
Trump has been seeding "traitor" comms about Kamala Harris and her ilk (going back to Obama and Clinton) for years, while referring to her Marxist origins routinely.
Quid Pro Quo is already cemented in the American Mind via Trump-Biden-Ukraine. The Trump Quid Pro Quo was fake. The Biden Quid Pro Quo was about money.
Considering the above timeline, was the Kamala Quid Pro Quo about something much, much worse ... ?
Why is Trump so comfy?
Why is Kamala so twitchy?
How do you show the people the true depths of the enemy's corruption?
The reason you're seeing Kamala and company panic in the current cycle isn't because they're worried about whether or not they can win a fake election; they're worried they're being pushed out to sea on a raft without a paddle as the US Deep State's connections to Iranian terror cells are unveiled ...
When do the trials for treason begin?
Death to Taxes?
"There is a way."
This was Donald Trump's response to a question about whether or not it's possible for the US to abolish ALL Federal Taxes, "once the country is back on its feet."
What I believe we're seeing out of Trump's financial narrative deployments of late is the seeding of the ultimate Reverse Hegelian Dialectic, which was summed up in his epic sit-down with the fiat vampire protectorate class represented by Bloomberg and WSJ in which he said, "you people have been wrong about [currency] your whole lives."
When Trump announced his "No Tax on Tips" plan, and followed it up with "No Tax on Loans," only to follow THAT up with "No Tax on Police, Fire and MIL," while taking jabs at taxation as a concept, he's engaging in mass psychological game theory.
If and when Trump starts to roll back these ancillary taxes, those who have NOT received the breaks will demand them.
And Trump will oblige.
He's forcing the old system to justify its existence.
It's failing. And it's afraid.
A Deposit in the Switch Theory Account …
The Switch theory that runs in parallel with the Devolution Operation posits that, amidst the noisy narratives that have dominated the American zeitgeist for the last four years, there are Actuals bubbling beneath the surface that suggest an American energy and manufacturing boom is right around the corner.
Just like Trump has predicted/promised.
This week, we received the latest marker that the future of US energy and production is brighter than most could imagine in the form of a miraculously large lithium deposit found in Arkansas that has the potential to eclipse the original worldwide supply estimates through 2030 by a factor of 9.
What's particularly Trumpian about this news, however, is the fact that this mass deposit was reportedly discovered due to specific modeling mandates budgeted into the Energy Act of 2020, a DOE directive meant to kickstart the new energy era.
How serendipitous, that such a deposit is found just before Trump publicly resumes the office he never lost ...
(BTW, you should totally read The Switch Theory …)
Elon Declares … Or Discloses War?
"This is war."
Elon Musk isn't declaring war. He's disclosing it.
While this statement reads like a declaration to most, I think it's Bicameral, in that it simultaneously acknowledges the "Info War" isn't a reductive label Anons throw around, but rather an accurate representation of the Fifth-Generation War we're already fighting against the machine.
Remember, as
often points out, Donald Trump told you the US Deep State and its media apparatus (which he branded "the enemy of the people") are effectively enemy combatants."Don't forget, this persecution is being done by the same weaponized agencies that for seven years have been running illegal psychological warfare campaigns against the American people, much as if they were trying to destabilize a foreign country." - DJT circa June 2023.
He even named the Ops:
The 'Russia Russia Russia!' Hoax
The Mueller "No Collusion" Witch Hunt
Impeachment Hoax #1
Impeachment Hoax #2
The 51 Lying Intelligence Officers
To name a few.
These intelligence ops masquerading as political scandals represent acts of war in a very literal sense, and that's not even touching the fact that the 2020 election was stolen by the same collusive foreign agencies and domestic insurgencies.
The thing is ... Info Wars go both ways, which is why you're seeing every pillar of the System of Systems begin to rot out in the light of discovery at the same time.
But then, you didn’t miss that Trump joined the Info War Party, did you?
Convergence.
It's one of the concepts I write about most in the Info War, and it's now happening all over the mass psychological game board.
From the Financial to the Political, the Cultural to the Clandestine, the core Pillars of the Deep State's System of Systems have been exposed one by one, and now, the threads binding them together Anons have been tracing for years are being revealed in a paint-by-numbers approach to the normie layers of the Collective Mind, bringing the whole corrupt tapestry into view.
In this particular example, we have Elon Musk seeding "this is war" as it relates to out-dated reporting suggesting foreign interference and British Collusion in US speech platforms, and by extension, US elections ... only for Trump Team to follow up with a narrative boost masquerading as a lawfare deployment.
Everything they accused Trump of is being reversed on a narrative level for public consumption.
Seeding. Germination (*In Progress.) Harvest.
Coordination = Control.
We're bringing the whole diseased, corrupt temple down on their heads.
So, again … when do the trials for treason begin?
Building Peace … Brick by BRICS
To those who've been paying attention, there's nothing new here.
And yet, it's absolutely dripping with signal, and represents rapid narrative progression en route to Trump the Peacemaker.
Putin, Xi & Trump are THE main market-movers in the realm of the real and in the mass psychological theater that is the Info War, where the movement of minds is akin to that of energy.
And they’re moving the world toward peace.
By putting these signal flares out, calling the western world a "hegemony," and poking at the "New World Order" framing of the Media Industrial Complex, the "New Axis" represented by Putin and Xi, Russia and China allow Info Warriors to have their cake and eat it, too: Alpha Chads of the Sovereign Alliance or necessary villains for the current arc.
As I said way back at the beginning of my journey in this space, Donald Trump will ultimately come to be known as the peacemaker. He won't sue for peace. He'll demand it.
Two legs of the tripod are in place. They're just waiting for the third.
Which way, Western Man?
BIG DIG: On Donald Trump, "ancient enemies," and the Eisenhower Model ...
Premise: Donald Trump is returning us to the Eisenhower-Kennedy Timeline the Deep State (aka. the "enemy within") stole from us, and much of it has already been done.
Originally, my mind started tracing these paths because of the Nuclear Renaissance Trump's executive orders and economic actions have kickstarted, and that the Biden Admin (also known as the Devolution Admin) have only accelerated.
In short, this theory posits that the Nuclear nightmare that dominated the 1940s was being transformed into Nuclear optimism in the age of Eisenhower and Kennedy in the 1950s and early 60s, with both leaders envisioning an American unbound by energy constraints and overflowing with limitless potential.
There's a reason classic Americana nostalgia is strongest as it recalls the 1950s, and that's because it was the logical, manifest destiny technological and energy future we believed we were heading toward before decades of Military Industrial Complex war (not to mention a presidential assassination that effectively kicked it all off) ripped us sharply away from that brief era of optimism and sent us careening down a dark path that only a few bright spots (Reagan, Trump,) have managed to pull us out of in pockets.
That said, this dig isn't inspired by the Nuclear Renaissance I believe (that I KNOW) is right around the corner during Trump 2.0, but rather by curious and frequent commentary Trump Admin officials are deploying based around the Commander-in-Chief and the US Chain of Command, concepts and structures that are essential to any plan to not just burn out the Deep State, but to make sure it never gets its hooks into the reforged American Republic again.
To wit, Kash Patel's recent comments on Donald Trump reinstituting "civilian control" over the US MIL and Department of Defense got my mind racing along the post-Eisenhower-Kennedy Timeline I've been thinking about for months.
In short, I believe Donald Trump, his admin, his priorities, his relationship/backing with US MIL, and the Devolution operation most exhaustively documented by
represent an attempt to return the US to a constitutional, civilian-controlled sovereign state in keeping with the Eisenhower-Kennedy timeline, and that has been under siege (and losing,) since November 1963.The energy stuff I discuss in the Weapons of the Future series plays into this, but that's more far-reaching.
What we saw with the implementation of the Devolution Operation, and what has continued since, is a rapid shift AWAY from the very Military Industrial Complex Eisenhower first coined and disclosed to the American people (and that very likely played a role in killing his presidential heir, John F. Kennedy,) and back toward a civilian-controlled command structure, as first baked into the founders' vision for this nation.
As pointed out by Patri0tContr0l, Kash recently said,
“When he [Trump] took away [Milley, Kelly, Esper’s] nest egg in the Defense Industrial Complex and he said ‘no, I, the Commander in Chief, run the Department of Defense under civilian authority as vested in me in the Constitution’, they got really ticked off.
And then he started looking into the corruption and saying ‘What’s all these million, billion dollar contracts- all your friends in DoD, and why does this revolving door keep opening and shutting? What happened to not having a politicized national command authority?’
HE EXPOSED IT ALL.”
Now, let's take a trip down memory lane to April 3, 1958, when the aforementioned General-President Dwight D. Eisenhower (who probably knows a BIT about the Chain of Command,) sent an open letter to US Congress entitled, "Special Message to the Congress on Reorganization of the Defense Establishment."
Now, isn't that interesting?
60+ years ago, Eisenhower was attempting to compel congress to act on the need Trump himself cited upon first taking office?
But here are some of the juicy bits from the letter:
After laying out the slow, steady corruption of the US Chain of Command, the over-complexity and compartmentalization of the increasingly-militarized executive branch and the lack of civilian oversight on the whole complex he named, Eisenhower says,
"These various steps toward more effective coordination of our armed forces under one civilian head have been necessary, sound, and in the direction pointed by the lessons of modern warfare. Each such step, however, has prompted opponents to predict dire results.
There have been allegations that our free institutions would be threatened by the influence of a military leader serving as the principal military adviser to the Defense Secretary and the Commander-in-Chief. There have been forecasts that one or more of the services would be abolished. As a result, the Secretary of Defense has never been freed of excessive statutory restraints.
As a result of well meaning attempts to protect traditional concepts and prerogatives, we have impaired civilian authority and denied ourselves a fully effective defense. We must cling no longer to statutory barriers that weaken executive action and civilian authority. We must free ourselves of emotional attachments to service systems of an era that is no more.
I therefore propose, for America's safety, that we now modernize our defense establishment and make it efficient enough and flexible enough to enable it to meet the fateful challenge of continuing revolutionary change."
And how about this ...
"We must clear command channels so that orders will proceed directly to unified commands from the Commander-in-Chief and Secretary of Defense.
The number of headquarters between the Commander-in-Chief and the commander of each unified command must be kept at the very minimum. Every additional level courts delay, confusion of authority, and diffusion of responsibility. When military responsibility is unclear, civilian control is uncertain."
He's talking ALL about the Chain of Command, the lack of civilian oversight, and the slow, steady erosion of constitutional checks and balances over the kinetic power projection arm of what had quickly emerged as the most powerful empire in the world in the aftermath of WW2 and the devastation of Europe and Russia.
Remember, he saw this firsthand, and developed a perspective that is, to this day wholly unique in terms of being a General in a World War who then ascended into the highest CIVILIAN office in the land.
Now, let's fast forward to John F. Kennedy, who, among MANY of the greatest and most signal-focused speeches ever delivered to the American people, continued to bang Eisenhower's drum in terms of civilian oversight, while apparently recognizing that the machine had already grown too robust and complex to take head-on.
His solution?
A focus on Special Operations and irregular/unconventional warfare.
To wit, as documented in Herold's Devolution Series, and as signal boosted by Ezra Cohen-Watnick, Kash Patel, Christopher C. Miller and others in Trump's COG orbit, Kennedy foresaw,
"... another type of war, new in its intensity, ANCIENT IN ITS ORIGIN, that would require a whole new kind of strategy, a wholly different kind of force, forces which are too unconventional to be called conventional forces, which are growing in number and importance and significance."
In Cohen-Watnick's words,
"Kennedy gave these remarks at the opening of the nuclear age ... when the Pentagon was primarily organized to plan and direct large conventional operations against superpowers, not special operations short of overt declared conflict."
(Note: there's that "nuclear age" term, again. And yet ... after Kennedy's assassination, America rapidly abandoned said nuclear age ... and retreated into generations of fossil fuel stagnation.)
This is a section Herold highlights in his research, drawing a direct line between Ezra's invocation of Kennedy to the exact sort of "enemy" that might provoke a sitting president to implement, in the words of Christopher C. Miller, "some of the most complex military operations ever conducted."
Remember, Miller, the very brief, acting Secretary of Defense in the waning days of the Trump Administration, made these remarks after having spent mere weeks, not years working in said position, and overseeing what Mike Pompeo quite memetically referred to as, "A smooth transition [of power] ... into a second Trump Administration.]
Back to Ezra ...
"The global demand for Special Operations Forces, then and now, has confirmed President Kennedy's foresight."
And for the kicker:
"And now, under the leadership of President Trump, we are fully realizing President Kennedy's prescient view of Special Operations Forces."
Back to today ... Kash is telling you those forces are under civilian control and authority, JUST as Eisenhower wanted them to be.
This might put Trump's frequent references to the "Eisenhower Model" of mass deportation and, more importantly, counter-insurgency in different lighting for you.
MUCH more encouraging lighting, I hope ... as long as you're not a Deep State cabalist.
It also might expand your horizons on why the System of Systems, from the Military and Clandestine to the Narrative/Media and Political are quaking in their boots over the prospect of a Trump Admin with the full, express CIVILIAN mandate of the American people ... something Trump has been signal boosting lately with his calls for a "Mandate Election" this time around.
So, in my view, we've got a bit of a Presidential Hegelian Dialectic going here, with the Eisenhower-Kennedy-Trump trinity.
Eisenhower called out the problem ...
Kennedy reacted to it, and started drafting a solution ...
Trump, backed by the MIL, enters the stage in the endgame to implement said solution.
We've been told that we're in a war that's been waged in the shadows for decades, generations ... perhaps centuries or longer.
In the scheme of things, 1958 isn't too far away.
Donald Trump isn't simply a throwback to the legacies of Dwight D. Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy.
He's a continuation of their work.
And we'll help him see it done.
(Read the Weapons of the Future series on Burning Bright, but especially 'Amerigeddon’ for some added flavor to that particular dig.)
Diegetic Sound … or, How Donald Trump is Pretty Much Deadpool …
On the latest episode of DEFECTED, I ended up bursting into a spontaneous bout of weaponized linguistic retardation on Trump’s Narrative Fighting Style, and how it’s actually reminiscent of an infamous comic book and pop culture character … the Merc with the Mouth, Deadpool.
And people actually seemed to enjoy it.
Maybe you will, to …
Bright Retrospective of the Week
“I used to say that someday, I’d maybe like to lose everything for a period of time to see who’s loyal and who’s not loyal. And you can’t guess it. You can’t predict it. You’d think certain people would be loyal no matter what, and it turns out that they’re not.
I think I would have treated people differently. I would have wiped the floor with the guys that were not loyal to me—which I will now do—because I love getting even … If given the opportunity, I will get even with the people who were disloyal to me.” — Donald J. Trump several decades ago ...
As you witness the strange, discordant and yet, entirely predictable panic pattern that seems to be enveloping all of the wolves in sheep's clothing represented by the Con Inc. protectorate class as they "retire, resign, step away and reevaluate" for no reason on the doorstep of the 2024 election, when they should be more "all in" on MAGA than ever before ... remember that some of us have been telling you exactly who these people are for years.
See it?
If not, it might be worth checking out the years-ago logic many Anons were employing that led them to stop listening to the Con Inc. Doom Brigade, and to mark them as enemies of the state and of the MAGA movement when they turned on Trump and went all in on the RON! Op circa November 2022.
When someone shows you who they are. Believe them.
Even if they're very good at "owning the Libz" on college campuses and being a leading producer of trans and anti-racist content that mollifies rather than progresses.
Oh ... and read The Master series, which kicked off two years ago specifically in response to these now-panicking jackals and crows.
