The Signal Setter
Architect of the American Awakening
(Author’s Note: I apologize for the lack of long-form writing in recent weeks, but hope you enjoy the following attempt at distilling the current nature of the battlespace. If you do, please consider the appeal at the bottom of this piece to support the work I do here, which always has and always will be free. Support in the form of Paid Subscriptions to this anti-newsletter goes far with my growing family and I as we attempt to carve out a path separate from that which the System originally had in mind for us.)
When it comes to a man some of us refer to quite literally as ‘The Master’ given his uncanny ability to control the battlespace—whether you’re talking about business, politics or even time itself, which we’ll get to—a simple question has been rattling around in the soft matter of my brain as I’ve started and stopped putting mental pen to digital paper over the course of the last month while searching for the best angle of Macro attack:
When will they learn?
When I first wrote that question down—rhetorical as it was—I had a pretty clear image in mind as to the subject.
The Deep State. The Globalists. The bracketed and targeted [they] that is as ubiquitous and recognizable a mode or comm to this audience as it is strange and foreign to most other layers of the Collective Mind.
And yet, as I marinated on what this piece would become—much like you, dear reader, I still don’t know, but I’m excited to find out—the definition of the term shifted, not so much narrowing as expanding.
‘When will they learn?’ then, doesn’t have to refer to the once-shadowed and increasingly revealed System of Systems I have spent the last three years documenting and cognitively, perhaps spiritually hunting alone, but can also be expanded to include most of the aforementioned layers of the Collective Mind that IS the multi-levelled and many-fronted battlespace both sides on the game theory game board are vying to alternatively control or free in this great Shadow War that doubles as an Info War, a Mind War and, as is my primary focus around these parts, a War of Stories.
Some of those layers, disappointingly or not, sit quite close to this one—the one we might consider ourselves a part of, and which we might refer to as some mix of anons, Info Warriors or awakened, awakening nodes in the new matrix that hopes to build the new world, much like the old one they took from us, albeit with new window dressing.
Why the aside on Trump’s rhetoric and its net effects to kick off this piece, then?
Because, whether you’re talking about the heirs of the Deep State’s System of Systems or the carrion crows in the collapsing media protectorate that once lifted them and defended them but is now abandoning them in droves, or whether you’re talking about Con Inc. charlatans my peers and I have been attempting to carve not from the darkness, but from the light ever since they showed you who they really were in November 2022 … or, even if you’re discussing the earnest, well-meaning and yet, hopelessly arrogant ‘analyst’ class in the new MAGA-adjacent sphere of self-described financial, cultural and political gurus I am unfortunately lumped in with at times … what I truly believe separates those who see the game from those who are only following its leavings is the foundational belief—no, the observational certainty—that Donald Trump actually knows what he’s doing.
And there’s nothing naive about that, even if faith brought a lot of people reading this publication most of the way to believing that fact when they were first introduced to the modern incarnation of Trump before that belief was codified, calcified and made bedrock real through thousands of hours of observation of the man and the movement, the war and the games within it.
And so, to set the tone for the coming pieces on Signals and Signal Setters in the current persuasion of the Info War, I think it’s worth the reminder that considering Donald Trump one of them—a Cypher unto himself, both redirecting and emitting Signal in a sea of engineered and obfuscating noise—has not just been the most rewarding position to adopt from a psychological and even emotional standpoint … but it just so happens to make you right a hell of a lot more often than wrong.
So, when I look out at the current battlespace, which has been split along Geopolitical, Cultural, Financial, Economic and even Historical rails, I see a lot of doom mongering attempting to pass as cold, hard analysis on the one side, and a lot of faith-based bloviating—dare I say, well-intentioned, but no less toxic because of it, cheerleading—on the other, and yet, I see few attempting to collapse the various Micros big enough to be called Macros in any other paradigm into the big picture of the emergent new reality … the new world we were told about, that we were promised, and that decodes and slogans are as likely to get you a glimpse of as the latest chyrons ticking across red or blue news desks that still haven’t given up the ghost on acting as would-be translators of the real to the unsuspecting minds plugged into their translation of it.
But then, maybe all of this was a long, typical way for me to say, when Donald Trump made the following statement on April 14, 2025, in the midst of a maelstrom and an informational storm he not only called, but delivered, I was struck by a signal stroke of lightning for its simplicity, its honesty, its wisdom and its implications, if you’ve been attempting to pierce the veil that separates the story from the truth, the simulacra and simulation from the foundational frequencies of the real.
A little louder, for those in the back:
“THE BEST DEFINITION OF INTELLIGENCE IS THE ABILITY TO PREDICT THE FUTURE!!!” — Donald J. Trump
One of the sayings I have deployed more than almost any other in my personal life is the following:
‘The truth doesn’t become the truth. It always was.’
To wit, when it comes to the Info War, the War of Stories and every other name we give to this clash of realities and the various translations of them, one of the prime anchor points I tether myself to is the believe—the knowing—that the truth is not created, but discovered, and that the ability to guess the direction of the story is as near a thing to guessing the nature of the real it seeks to alternatively translate or obscure—depending on who’s doing the writing—and is therefore as close to a marker of true, genuine observation as we are ever likely to approach in the great game we continue to play, and that we have been alternatively trapped in and freed by.
Guessing the future is not just intelligent, in the words of Donald Trump, but stands as a core testament to the ability of a given mind to see the truth before it announces itself, and before others take in its likeness and weigh it against all of the wrong that led them astray before they came to know it.
This baseline observation—that to know the future is, well, good and true—or, to borrow a phrase from my good friend
, to recognize that, “being right is ALWAYS smarter than being wrong,” appears to put one in rarified air these days, even in the midst of the greatest awakening we’ve happened upon since … whenever the last one was.To wit, such an obvious knowing, such a baseline, foundational and inarguable truth appears lost on the would-be expert class that sprung up in the wake of Trump’s victory in November 2024—a new, faux-MAGA charter of cognitive custodians rushing to fill the void left by the scattered and leaderless collectivist filth that were summarily chased from the field, and are now either routed with some degree of permanence, or who are in the midst of rebranding campaigns as they attempt to convince the more forgiving (and forgetting) within the awakening core that their evil was only in service of themselves … all the better to remember it should the System they served slink or sweep back in on the back of Trump’s wrathful and bountiful cycle of memetic and magnificent discord.
And yet, perhaps such a blind spot also exists—rather, once existed—in our true enemies, the Deep State we have long followed and documented, analyzed and harried alongside the patriots we’ve attempted to track and buoy, support and augment in what could be our last chance in the current cycle of the world to do so.
Perhaps they really did underestimate Trump and the movement he represents, along with the one that has clearly been backing him since long before he came down that golden escalator in the most obvious war declaration this conflict with as many names as fronts ever saw.
Of course, that bracketed [they] should not have been surprised someone might use such a technique against them. Such a … dialectic, which I wrote about at length in one of my most-read features to date, and which I implore you to revisit.
After all, in order for the Hegelian Dialectic to function, and in order to guide the unknowing and unthinking plebs of modern society—that’s us, in case you hadn’t noticed—along the rails to our own enslavement and annihilation, it pays not only to know the future, but better still, to engineer it.
All the better to bring it about.
And why can’t that process be turned around on them?
Why can’t the solution to a Hegelian problem be an anti-Hegelian solution, one not wrapped in lies in order to obscure the truth, but one whose core is made of such radiant real that to deny it once it comes into itself fully will be to deny the warmth of the sun and the light it gives off at the advent of an awakening dawn?
THAT is the signal at the heart of Donald Trump’s narrative deployments that are always layered both over and under the Actuals they’re meant to simultaneously translate while cultivating mandate for.
There is a timeline war in the offing, my friends, and the reason Trump seems to alternatively speak in riddles to some while stating signal clearly and almost comically to others is wrapped up in whether or not you’ve managed to discern that.
When Donald Trump wages war on Xi Jinping and China, he’s waging war on the System that has drained the life energy from one side and the dignity from the other.
When Donald Trump wages war on the Federal Reserve and its current proxy chairman, he’s waging war on the progenitors of the false reality incarnate.
When Donald Trump implores the Prussian Proxy Prince of the fake nation of Ukraine to ‘make a deal’ that I have been arguing for three years is already done against the backdrop of a tectonic shift in the war between the light and the darkness—and in favor of the former—all under the guise of a Pope’s last rites, he’s giving you a peak behind the story that acts as a mass translation layer it has and remains your choice to discern, and into the real war’s foundations.
And, ironically, firstly and finally, when Donald Trump calls the news fake and the story real, he’s giving away the game a full decade before the final hand was laid out almost while the Collective Mind was sleeping, as the population is now mostly freed from the grips of the matrix, even if they haven’t quite begun to walk the path to awakening laid out before them in a conscious way, like you have.
How often does Trump say a thing and that thing comes to pass?
How often does he lay out a problem and a solution, both of which get lost in the engineered, reactionary maelstrom—the barrier that should be a bridge—in the interim?
Put most simply, how often is Donald Trump wrong, and how often are those who say he is proven right?
Was the news fake?
Was the war real?
Are the deals done?
The choice to know the answers to each and every one of those macros and the micros that spin out from them has been yours, and will continue to be, even if the story and all its convergences become more difficult to lose the signal within than it was at the start.
As I observe the emergent informational, psychological, political and yes, even spiritual battlespace at the advent of the new American Golden Age, then, I don’t see the moniker as a name belonging to the current time, but a statement of one still to come. Of one that we can see on the near horizon, and that we can bring forward should we cultivate the mindset to see it done.
That is the charge laid out before us by the prime Signal Setter at work in the War of Stories, and yes, the prime architect of the American Awakening, one whose work will linger long after he’s passed from the realm of the real, but whose impact on the true war will never be able to be overstated.
To see the future, to know that it already exists, and to seize it by first carving its likeness from doubt, collapsing it into bedrock belief, and then reverse engineering the mechanistic path required to make it so.
In the Golden Age, where Hegelian Nightmares are being distilled and transformed through awakening alchemy into American Dreams once more, your charge is not to pine for the new world that recalls the one they stole from you.
Your charge is to make it so.
Why the narratives, then? Why the cognitive cyphers?
Why the signal setters?
Because mandate is key to a lasting paradigm shift, which is to say, a reality shift.
And because you hold it.
So, start acting like it.
And until next time, stay Positive, stay Based and most importantly … stay Bright.
Bright Retrospective …
Okay, so this piece turned into a more esoteric one, ironically setting the signal and the stage for my next, which is in progress.
Before you wait on your laurels for that one, however, consider revisiting the feature it’s meant to follow up.
Reality Wars seeks to shed some light on the incredible Game Theory pincer I believe Donald Trump and his compatriots have the System of Systems caught in.
What’s the solution to a system designed specifically to subvert and pervert the real, then?
Twofold: alternatively exposing the falsity inherent in it while encouraging hope in that which it was erected to supplant in the first place.
From the Federal Reserve to the Fiat Ponzi Scheme that has powered the Globalist Deep State for generations, patriots told us they were going to show us a new world.
It's time we start believing them.
Reality Wars
Recent features at Burning Bright have largely tracked what I see as an emergent and accelerating capitulation pattern playing out on a Macro scale when it comes to the Deep State’s System of Systems, even if said pattern is being translated to us by the Media Industrial Complex—one such subsystem of the collective—as something quite different.
A Note From the Author, and a Humble Request
In case you haven’t sussed it out from my occasional allusions and bouts of self deprication whenever my writing is delayed, I can be a bit hard on myself for someone who runs a free publication. That’s why you’ve seen me waffle back and forth between pumping out more frequent Briefs and more gradual long-forms, depending on the month.
Honestly, I’m prone to what I call ‘red-lining’ my mind, which isn’t the healthiest thing in the world, and is something I’m trying to be more cognizant of as I adjust to fatherhood while trying to put my family in the best position possible as I try to continue what I truly feel is important work here, even if the financial rewards for it are often volatile, if they come at all.
I’m never going to be able to promise specific timelines or frequency when it comes to my writings. Sometimes I’ll do more frequent briefs and other times, just a couple of long-forms in a month, but I spend a LOT of time on these, and a lot of mental energy. I am extremely grateful to those of you who spend the time and effort to read them, share them and comment on them, and the comments from those of you who tell me to rest up at times and not feel so much pressure to get the next piece of writing out.
Additionally, I always feel weird asking for support, and as I always say, everything I do here is going to remain free, just as my shows on Rumble will remain free, as I believe in what we’re all trying to uncover together.
That said, while I do maintain a career in order to weather the instability inherent in being … whatever it is I am around these parts, the added support from the growing Bright Army isn’t just appreciated, but as my wife and I attempt to navigate the joys and stresses of new parenthood, it’s becoming even more meaningful—and important—to us.
Anyway, all of that is to say that, if you are able to support the work I’ll continue to try to do in the form of Paid Subscriptions (cancel at any time) to this publication or Coffee Donations, know that it does not go unnoticed.
Burning Bright’s goal is to provide a valuable resource for Truth, Discernment and Logic-Based Positivity, and all of my content is free. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a Free or Paid Subscriber.
Want to submit a one-time donation? You can do so by buying me a coffee!
ALL members of the growing Bright Army are appreciated.
The Master appeared, for all intent and purposes, as the Ringmaster last week. It’s a little over-the-top being involved in wrestling and the NFL draft, and at the Vatican, while spit polishing the curb appeal of the White House and keeping tabs on the unholy judges while the Easter eggs roll.. But this is how we do it. Looking forward to where Elon pops up “post-DOGE”...
This post is exactly why I made you my first subscription in the alternative media. Originally, it was the Righteous
Russia series that resonated with me, especially when the fake news attacked Putin in the exact manner they did once Trump told ‘them’ his real intentions. Then followed by more and more glimpses into the brilliant assessments of your mind, it solidified your unique methodology. Stories ARE the uniqueness of man and are the single way we capture our journey.
Truth is truth and your acknowledgment of this makes you one of a handful of people I read to glean more information about the status of this war. The Art of War was enlightening, too, and clearly explained the ‘why’ of the many moves taken on this chessboard.
You (the first) and a handful of other researchers together have provided the clearest picture and evidence. Reminders periodically surely help keep our discernment on the right track! Thank you, Fearless Tiger (and your wife), for continuing your work! You are much appreciated!
