Corruption exposed: US meddled in Ecuador’s election, using Julian Assange as bargaining chip

A former minister of Ecuador testified that the US government conspired with a right-wing political party to run a disinformation campaign against the leftist Correísta movement, backing a millionaire banker for president in exchange for giving up journalist Julian Assange, who had asylum in the Ecuadorian embassy.    by Ben Norton   Part 4 - Corrupt Ecuadorian official conspired with Miami-based oligarchs who stole millions from their people   Yet the scandal goes even deeper. Monge was not the only right-wing opposition figures whom Capaya was conspiring with. As a fugitive from justice living in Miami in late 2016 and early 2017, Capaya also met with right-wing multimillionaire bankers from Ecuador’s notorious Isaías family. The Isaías Brothers, William and Roberto, are ferociously anti-Correa oligarchs who fled their country of birth and moved to the United States, with millions of dollars of stolen money, during Ecuador’s economic crash of 1998 and 1999. This massive crisis, known

Liberal hypocrites now oppose lockdowns in China

The Jimmy Dore Show   Remember when truckers protesting COVID restrictions in Canada were labeled fascists, white supremacists and terrorists? Well would it surprise you to learn that many of the same people who lodged these accusations at the truckers are now actively supporting the lockdown protesters in China? How can they do that, you ask? Simple. Because they’re hypocrites.  

Massive anti-Russian ‘bot army’ exposed by Australian researcers

An Australian university has unearthed millions of Tweets by fake ‘bot’ accounts pushing disinformation on the Ukraine war.    by Peter Cronau   Part 4 - Critical tool in information warfare   This new research paper confirms mounting fears that social media has covertly become what the researchers call ‘ a critical tool in information warfare playing a large role in the Russian invasion of Ukraine ’. The Adelaide University researchers tried their best to be noncommittal in describing the activities of the fake Twitter accounts, although they had found the vast majority – over 90 percent – were anti-Russian messages. They stated: ‘ Both sides in the Ukrainian conflict use the online information environment to influence geopolitical dynamics and sway public opinion. ’ They found the two main participating sides in the propaganda war have their own particular goals and style. ‘ Russian social media pushes narratives around their motivation, and Ukrainian social media aims to foster and

Declassified Australia exposes and analyses a massive secret propaganda operation being run out of the US, that has been buried by Western media. by Peter Cronau   Part 8 - The Middle East cluster   The Middle East cluster used its covert assets to focus on issues primarily related to Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen. This group ‘ chiefly promoted narratives seeking to undermine Iran’s influence in the region ’. It did this through a spread of inflammatory allegations and stories designed to influence audiences. Several fake Twitter accounts ‘ posed as Iraqi activists in order to accuse Iran of threatening Iraq’s water security, and flooding the country with crystal meth ’. ‘ Other assets highlighted Houthi-planted landmines killing civilians, and promoted allegations that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine will lead to global food crisis. ’ Multiple assets posted similar content, similarly timed, that was clearly being shared and coordinated.

Day 1325: Julian Assange still in prison and under slow-motion execution by the Anglo-American imperialist criminals

failed evolution   On 11 April 2019, the Ecuadorian government of traitor Lenin Moreno, invited the Metropolitan Police into the Ecuadorian embassy in London, and they arrested Julian Assange . Since then, Assange is kept in Belmarsh high security prison in London, without actual charges.   The real reason world's number one political prisoner is still kept in this high security prison, is because he exposed horrendous war crimes carried out by the US imperialists and their allies.   The ruthless Western imperialist regime wants to punish the No1 real journalist in the world and make him an example for any Whistleblower or real journalist who will attempt to expose its big crimes in the future.   And the Anglo-American axis has now become officially a fascist coalition , framed by the rest of its Western pets.

Capaya became a household name in Ecuador back in 2016, when he was serving as minister of hydrocarbons. In April of that year, international media outlets published the Panama Papers, a massive leak of information about offshore bank accounts. Pareja Yannuzzelli’s name appeared in the Panama Papers, setting off a scandal in Ecuador. Corre

Massive anti-Russian ‘bot army’ exposed by Australian researcers

An Australian university has unearthed millions of Tweets by fake ‘bot’ accounts pushing disinformation on the Ukraine war.    by Peter Cronau   Part 3 - Unfiltered and independent research   The landmark Adelaide University research differs from these earlier revelations in another most unique and spectacular way. While the Stanford-Graphika and Meta research was produced by researchers who have long-term deep ties to the US national security state, the Adelaide University researchers are remarkably independent. The academic team is from the university’s School of Mathematical Science. Using mathematical calculations, they set out to predict and model people’s psychological traits based on their digital footprint. Unlike the datasets selected and provided for the Stanford/Graphika and the Meta research, the data the Adelaide University team accessed didn’t come from accounts after they’ve been detected for breaching guidelines and shut down by Meta or Twitter.  Joshua Watt is one of t

How an obscure intelligence-linked party fixed a second Brexit referendum and torpedoed Corbyn

The pro-EU Renew party emerged from out of nowhere at the height of “Corbynmania,” pushing for a second Brexit referendum that led to the Labour leader’s demise. The intelligence backgrounds of Renew’s founders were kept under wraps – until now.   by Kit Klarenberg  Part 6 - Mission accomplished, Renew folds into wider Remainer push Undeterred by their woeful 2018 election showing and Coghlan’s departure from the party, Renew’s remaining adherents continued their nationwide political crusade for several months. Come February 2019 though, when disaffected Conservative and Labour MPs founded the pro-EU Change UK party in February 2019, Renew stood down its candidates in the impending European election. In response, Change UK hailed Renew’s “ worthwhile and meaningful endeavours ” as an inspiration for its own pro-Brussels agenda. Despite Renew’s effort to level the pro-Remain playing field, in the event Change UK secured just 3.3% of the vote and splintered not long after, with six of it

CENSORED in the West! Uyghur genocide narrative DESTROYED

numuves   Most us realize that we're being lied to and propagandized to on a MASSIVE scale each and every day. This flood of disinformation works particularly well because the system forces us to work so hard that we're too exhausted to even question the BS. So it's an absolute godsend that we still have real journalists around to check the facts.

Top billionaire oligarch Elon Musk chooses camp in the capitalist civil war

globinfo freexchange     As we continue to monitor the developments in the capitalist civil war (which is particularly evident in the US/UK, the motherlands of neoliberalism), we covered the recent pro-Brexit capitalists' stressful attempt to find a suitable Thatcherite zombie that would help them stabilize their political power. It seems that they found a not so reliable solution in the face of Rishi Sunak, for now.   On the other side of the Atlantic, it seems that the top billionaire oligarch, Elon Musk, decided to join the alt-right, pro-Trump capitalist faction, for good.   The first signs of Musk's connection with the pro-Trump capitalist faction came out for the first time, probably during the US-backed coup against Evo Morales in Bolivia, back in 2019. In 2020, Musk responded to an accusation on Twitter (that the US government organized a coup against President Evo Morales so that Musk could obtain Bolivia's lithium), with the shockingly straightforward admiss

Massive anti-Russian ‘bot army’ exposed by Australian researcers

An Australian university has unearthed millions of Tweets by fake ‘bot’ accounts pushing disinformation on the Ukraine war.    by Peter Cronau   Part 2 - The disinformation blitz krieg   The Adelaide University researchers unearthed a massive organised pro-Ukraine influence operation underway from the early stages of the conflict. Overall the study found automated ‘bot’ accounts to be the source of between 60 to 80 percent of all tweets in the dataset. The published data shows that in the first week of the Ukraine-Russia war there was a huge mass of pro-Ukrainian hashtag bot activity. Approximately 3.5 million tweets using the hashtag #IStandWithUkraine were sent by bots in that first week. In fact, it was like someone had flicked a switch, when at the start of the war on 24 February, pro-Ukraine bot activity suddenly burst into life. In that first day of the war the #IStandWithUkraine hashtag was used in as many as 38,000 tweets each hour, rising to 50,000 tweets an hour by day three
