Tessa, thanks for posting your conversation with Jeff Childers, and for providing the informative background article. (Btw, please consider employing a speech to text tool for your videos, for those of us in your audience who prefer reading to listening.)

Gazillion fortified with umptillion upvotes for the btw part! 💖 Audio is all but gone as attention wanders—while the graceful text avails effortless re-focusing.

Plus one for transcripts from me too. There's literally zero opportunity for me to listen to audio, given that I can read many more articles in the same timeframe. I don't subscribe yet, but would consider doing so if this is implemented.

I almost unsubscribed from Glenn Greenwald's substack/locals/rumble because it was all video (and an annoying time zone for me in London) but the transcripts are fantastic and I resubscribed.

I'll join in with a fervent plea for text renderings of videos. For medical reasons, I'm presently unable to use audio and it is so incredibly frustrating to be locked out of access to interviews such as this. I also want to tell you, while I'm here and commenting, how much I appreciate your writings, your mind, and your spirit. Thank you for all you're doing in the world!

It all starts local and God works thru courageous and moral people. This spiritual war will be won by people like Jeff and Tessa having the courage to speak out and to act with courage.

Perhaps the divisions caused by this crisis highlights our differences and shows us who has courage to resist and who does not. Protecting freedom is a hill I will die on if necessary, hopefully it will never get to that. Keep resisting Tessa and Jeff.

Now this is one interview I can't wait to watch! [ Now watched - I particularly like Jeff' suggestion/local game plan at the end ]

I too have been pondering the pandemic, politicians, and the theme of accountability. /Here is my contribution... https://garysharpe.substack.com/p/why-i-wont-take-health-advice-from

Tessa, thank you for your wisdom, your tenacious truth seeking, your compassion, the people and ideas you bring together, your courage...thank you for all of it. You carry Manjushri’s sword. I am constantly returning to your conversation with Steven Newcomb as a fundamental way of understanding this madness and how to begin to imagine a way out. With gratitude.

Really enjoyed this conversation. I'm in full agreement - we are going to discover most of what we thought we knew - was an illusion.

Thank you - it's hopeful to me, listening to you both.

Jeff is a riot! He writes so well, and that's in addition to winning 'freedom" cases!

In his farewell address—today but a dwindling speck in rearview mirror—Ike Eisenhower famously focused on the grave dangers posed by the monstrous beast aka military-industrial complex. Now we have (easily!) half a dozen such behemoths of similar bulk & intricacy; no facet of our lives has been spared 😟🤬😶

💬 It’s time for us to wake up to our love and our dignity and disallow them from scaring us or turning us into slaves.[...T]here’s work to do 🤩

💬 the difference between “democracy” and “totalitarianism” is in the size of the cage 🔥💯

Now it *does* bear repeating! Tweaked up ever so slightly 😊

Tessa this is one of your best! so glad you got Jeff on because you reach an audience that he might not - yet

love how you made the connection between western imperialism and the great reset - arendt talks a lot about how south african apartheid was the blueprint for the nazis (in addition to the british-american eugenics movement that jeff mentions).

2020 really made visible what wasn't visible before!

Thank you!! I am also very glad I had a conversation with Jeff. He has not done a whole lot of interviews, and I feel very honored to have talked to him.

Oh and Jeff is so much more "famous" than me. :) And amazingly, I got the impression that both of us care much more about truth and dignity than we do about popularity. That is one of the reasons I feel such camaraderie and respect!

Our 1918 "color revolution" included a full-scale invasion and occupation of Russia. We started from the East and didn't reach Moscow, but Army Signal Corps did control communications. It's not clear to me what we were trying to accomplish. My best guess is that we recognized Lenin and Stalin would turn Russia into an industrial power that could threaten our monopoly, so we worked for the weaker and more corruptible Mensheviks.

How was the War of Intervention covered in your Russian education?

Expand full comment

If Sutton is correct, the main organizers of the 1917 coup received major financing and military assistance.

When I was a very young kid, it was covered in a very pro-Bolshevik way/. After the Soviet Union fell apart, it was covered in the opposite way.

Thanks! That makes sense.
