Millions in DHS Terrorism Prevention Grants go to Promote Media Literacy, Combat Disinformation
DHS CC
The agency created after 9/11 to protect the nation from another terrorist attack is giving nonprofits, local governments, and academic institutions millions of dollars to promote media literacy and combat what the Biden administration considers to be “disinformation.” Among the recipients of the grants awarded by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is a center founded by former President Jimmy Carter to implement a “media literacy curriculum” designed to mitigate the harms presented by disinformation. In all, DHS will dole out around $7 million for its new media literacy campaign, which is part of a broader and handsomely funded initiative called Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention Program (TVTP) launched in 2020 to “prevent targeted violence and terrorism.”
This year DHS is doling out $20 million in grants to dozens of recipients to meet TVTP’s mission of preventing incidents of domestic violent extremism, as well as to bolster efforts to counter online radicalization and mobilization to violence. In the press release announcing the $20 million investment, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the agency is equipping local communities and organizations, including those “historically underserved,” with needed resources to become more effective partners to strengthen security and help Americans feel safe and secure. In the announcement DHS reveals that it encouraged applicants from diverse groups and conducted extensive outreach to a variety of public and nonprofit sectors. In fact, the agency writes that among this year’s priorities is “advancing equity in awards and engaging underserved communities in prevention.”
A chunk of the TVTP money—$7 million—will be dedicated to the media literacy campaign, which will focus largely on combatting “misinformation and disinformation.” The Carter Center, which was founded by the former Democratic president, is getting $99,372 to implement its media literacy curriculum. The goal is to address the gap in media literacy education in the United States within a targeted violence and terrorism prevention context to demonstrate the effectiveness in mitigating the harms presented by disinformation, according to DHS. “This partnership would allow The Carter Center to deploy its curriculum modules over a two-year period in multiple classroom settings targeting a wide population aged 18 to 60 years old,” DHS writes in its recent announcement. “Media literacy trainings build capacities in evaluating media sources, assessing media intent, interpreting media messages, understanding how the brain processes information, understanding how online media shapes perception, recognizing false and misleading information, investigating suspicious claims, and practicing good media hygiene.”
The University of Rhode Island will receive $701,612 to combat disinformation, conspiracy theories and propaganda that have become large-scale social problems shaping the ways citizens view facts, define truth, and make decisions, according to DHS. The university will use the taxpayer dollars to create initiatives that help people critically analyze information, digital media, and popular culture to benefit all members of society by “diminishing the appeal of us-vs-them thinking that activates strong emotions and oversimplifies ideas and information.” The Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars will get $750,000 to create an “educational digital game” designed to help students understand different strategies used to spread disinformation and combat it at the institutional level. The Uran Rural Action, a group that strives for a “more inclusive democracy” across ideological and racial differences, will receive $769,190 to create a “Local Prevention Framework.”
Above is just a sample of the groups that will fill their coffers with public funds for this fictitious crisis created by the Biden administration to control information. Many more are getting six figures from the government for this nonsense. “Disinformation, conspiracy theories, and propaganda have become large-scale social problems, shaping the way citizens view facts, define truth, and make decisions,” according to the DHS grant document.

In "The First Global Revolution,"[1991] published by The Council of the Club of Rome, an international elitist organization, the authors note that:
"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine, and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention ...The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and power, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places.
Ephesians: 6:12

The Biden admin has used weather warfare to assault the State of Florida, whose Governor, Ron DeSantis, has pissed off the Democrats by embarrassing them with the brilliant stunt of sending 50 migrants to Martha's Vineyard, exposing their hypocrisy and shifting attention back to migration, which is a colossal problem for any state that wants to maintain its sovereignty. And the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines--which also appears to have been a Biden stunt (after both he and Victoria Nuland had declared prior to the event that, if Putin were to invade Ukraine, then Nord Stream would "cease" one way or another--and have now made it happen, where earth scientists are demanding the culprits be brought to justice for "war crimes" and crimes against humanity. Meanwhile, Secretary of State Blinken claims the bombing of the pipeline is a "tremendous opportunity" to wean Europe off inexpensive and easily accessible) Russian gas for LNG from the US, which is complicated to process and transfer and runs about four times as expensive. With Biden's staff contradicting his public statements with increasing frequency, some are asking, "Who is our real president?", which is a very good question. The UN is going after "conspiracy theories", which is almost always vague and general, because when you get into specific cases--such as "Did Lee Oswald (alone) kill JFK?", "Were 19 Islamic hijackers really responsible for 9/11?", or "Did we really land a man on the moon?", the evidence makes it clear that the government's "official narratives" are not only shoddy and full of holes but that they are provably false, as the other stories we discuss themselves vividly exemplify.

The Vortex — 'Survey Says'

TRANSCRIPT
When companies are doing internal reviews and want to know what their customers think of them, their products and their services, it's typical that they conduct market surveys.
The surveys come in all kinds, shapes and forms — from focus groups to incentive emails to online surveys, and so forth.
Recently, a company sent out a survey and asked the following questions of its patrons:
Where do you live?
What have been your experiences doing business with us?
What are your hopes for our company in the future?
What are three to five words you would use to describe what you like most about the company?
What are three to five words you would use to describe the difficulties you have had with the company?
Which of the following (sense of community, feeling of acceptance, being listened to and valued, among other things) do you consider the strengths of the company and the reasons you patronize us?
As companies "dig down" into their customers' likes and dislikes (and then, broader opinions and thoughts), they often ask these types of questions. And then, whatever they are able to implement from these surveys, they do.
After all, you've got to keep the customer happy, because a happy customer is a repeat customer. Now, a little confession: The "company" that sent out the survey was a diocese asking Catholics those questions and a few others.
Go ask your local chancery if Church Militant's voice can be valued.

This is precisely why Catholic, Inc. is failing. It sees itself in corporate terms, not spiritual. Nowhere on the survey was there even the slightest attempt to try and see if the "customers" understand what the Church is or, more exactly, who the Church is.
Every single question on that survey (and the possible choices) is reflective of a bishop and his staff who have zero comprehension of the Church as She is constituted in Herself. Consider that for more than half a century, the hierarchy has failed to teach that most salient point, the nature of the Church ("ecclesiology" is its proper name).
Then 50-plus years later, after having corrupted the minds of its customers by depriving them of the truth, a bishop shoots out a marketing survey asking them their thoughts about the Church — meaning, their feelings about it.
Do they like everyone's voice being valued? Do they like listening to one another? Do they like joint discernment and decision-making, dialoguing with society? What in hades do any of those terms even mean? They are completely stupid — just like the survey itself, the people who wrote it and the person who approved it.
This has nothing to do with eternal salvation. It's a customer survey designed to discover the likes and dislikes of the customer base and then make appropriate changes to the product according to the survey results.
In fact, given the inane questions — the wording, the choice of phrases, the vocabulary — the whole thing can be likened to Henry Ford's famous quip when marketing his Model T: "You can have it in any color you like, as long as it's black."
The survey is designed to elicit responses that have zero relationship to the truth. Who cares if someone doesn't feel everyone's voice is valued? Some voices should not be valued at all.
In fact, far from being valued, some voices should be expelled from the Church — Fr. James Martin; Cdls. Cupich, McElroy and Tobin; virtually the entire German Bishops' Conference; need we continue?
For all the bluster about "all voices being valued," go ask your local chancery if Church Militant's voice can be valued at the next diocesan men's conference.
This is all part of the smokescreen of remaking the Church — pretending to be listening to the people of God when all that's being heard is just an echo chamber of faithless prelates hearing back their theological insanity from the past half-century.
Since when did fellowship take priority over the sacraments? Since when did my voice gain greater importance than the Cross? This garbage is off the rails.
These surveys are being conducted in dioceses all over the world, with the results collated and then forwarded to Rome for inclusion in next year's agenda for the Synod on Synods — even the name is stupid.
Since when did fellowship take priority over the sacraments?

Synods don't replace Church teaching, even if they have a billion questionnaires that prove nothing other than the gross failures of their bishops.
That will, however, be the one redeeming factor of the great big universal synod: It will produce living proof of just how much the hierarchy itself has rejected the Faith. It won't be the first time in Church history, and if mankind lives long enough, it likely will not be the last.
But we weren't alive during the Arian heresy. We also will not be alive during whatever future heresy swamps the bishops decades or centuries from now. We are alive in this one. That demands a response from us, here and now.
This is fool's gold. It's Protestant, building a religion around the emotional whims of the "people of God," collated from a series of worldwide surveys and decades of being malformed in the Faith. The Church as She is constituted in Herself is under divine protection. Individual members of the hierarchy, as well as the collective people of God the way they mean it, however, are not.
When Our Blessed Lord's visible body went into the tomb, His followers mourned, were near despair and had given up hope. Only His Mother believed — she hoped, and not just hoped but hoped supernaturally.
She alone kept the candle of faith alive. You could say, in a certain sense, that for those three days the entire Church was subsumed into her.
Our Lord's visible presence here on earth once again appears to be going into the tomb. This will call for a deep faith, a supernatural faith — a "man of steel" approach to His promise that He will not leave us orphans.
In this month of the Holy Rosary, emulate the Mother of Christ, who did not despair but sat keeping vigil, waiting to see her Divine Son again on Easter morning.
Mary Magdalene was the first public witness to the Resurrection, but it is held by innumerable Fathers and Doctors of the Church, along with multitudes of saints, that the first to behold His resurrected, glorified body was His Blessed Mother — a uniting of Himself to her in a singular way. Yes, in exchange for her deep sorrow, but also as a reward for her abiding faith and hope, motivated by her love for Him.
What son, having witnessed the agony of his own mother at his sufferings and death, would not appear to her first, to bring her agony and sadness to an end?
G.K. Chesterton made the comment once that the Church has died many times in its millennia-long existence, only to be resurrected by God again and again. Hold on to that thought, that realization, that hope, as we descend into the tomb yet again.
We will not be there forever. As Psalm 16:10 says, "you will not leave my soul among the dead, nor suffer your beloved to know decay."

I am very proud of Governor deSantis' great leadership in this crisis. People are so tired of mainstream media shills. They need careful planning and government policies in place and that's what Florida had. I am from a island town and Dan Rather cut his teeth on reporting in the middle of a hurricane there while the wind and rain were hitting him.. That is how he moved on to "success" in MSM.

Are People Basically Good or Basically Evil?
by Dr. Richard H. Bulzacchelli | Aug 27, 2018
https://catholicstudiesacademy.com/w...17-801x675.jpg
When asked what differentiates a Catholic perspective from a Protestant perspective on the world, many people today are inclined to say that it lies in the way we see human beings. Protestants, they’ll generalize, see human beings as basically evil, while Catholics see human beings as generally good. But this characterization, wide-spread as it is, especially among Catholics today, is a gross distortion. It’s also an ancient heresy called Pelagianism, after an Irish monk who taught that human beings could do the good they ought and live lives pleasing to God without the intervention of the grace that Christ alone provides.
In fact, both Catholics and Protestants would hold to the thesis that human beings are basically good, in a certain sense, but we’d also both hold to the view that, in another sense, we’re basically bad. We should note, too, that here, we’re talking about classical Protestants like Calvinists and Lutherans of the old variety.
So, we all agree that, as creatures, we’re God’s idea, and God’s idea is always a good idea. God doesn’t create evil. He creates good. So, in that respect, we’re good. And because God made humanity for union with himself, he made humanity for a good end. At least at the level of our nature, understood in this way, we’re a good thing.
On the other hand, it’s also true that both Catholics and Protestants would hold that human beings are basically bad. When Protestants speak of a “sin nature,” Catholics often hear them saying that we sin by virtue of God’s design. If we have a “sin nature” then we sin because we’re human; to be human is to be a sinner. This is what gives people the impression that Protestants just think people are bad.
But that’s not really what they’re saying. They’re saying that by virtue of our natural birth, which comes to us in the context of fallenness—what we would call, “original sin”—we don’t grow up straight or “just”. We grow crooked and twisted. We’re all born with a diseased soul just as we’re born with a diseased body: both will eventually die but for the miraculous intervention of God, and so, we’re already, in this sense, as good as dead at birth.
Catholics believe the same thing as far as this point goes, but, in the twentieth century, certain ideas entered theological discourse that led many people down an errant path.
Jesuit theologian, Karl Rahner advocated for a hypothetical “anonymous Christian,” whom he described as a person who, though he hasn’t been effectively evangelized, values the Gospel, at least implicitly. This is a fine concept and even a theologically necessary one if one wishes to account for the implicit longing on the part of the Old Testament saints for the fulfillment of an expectation that would arrive in a form they hadn’t anticipated. They longed for a world freed from the dominion of sin and death, and the believed that God would bring that world about. As St. Paul describes Judaism before the Incarnation event, they “put their hopes in Christ before he came” (cf. Ephesians 1:12).
The idea of the “anonymous Christian,” though, goes a little further than this. What about those people, if they exist, who would believe in Christ if only the gospel were presented to them in terms they were able to hear and understand? Even in the most demonic religions, there’s some glimmer of truth, which, if identified, could be placed within its true context and be exploited for the gospel. When we ask about the “anonymous Christian,” we’re asking about the guy who would embrace the Faith if it were presented that way—who, at the time he’s approached by the missionary, is already longing for something, he knows not what, to be true so that the world would be a place of hope and love rather than despair and discord.
Whether the idea of the “anonymous Christian” is a good or a bad hypothesis isn’t the point here. But I mention it because it’s led to distortions about what the Church teaches about the human person. As the “anonymous Christian” hypothesis took hold, it led to a quieting of the sense of urgency previously felt over the question of missionization and evangelization. If people could be saved already, even before they gain any explicit awareness of the gospel, much less before being received into the Church, why is missionary activity important? Real missionary activity, perhaps, is about bringing food and medicine to the less fortunate, a task well-meaning atheists are more than welcome to do alongside us.
As we said before, at root here is Pelagianism, erroneous though it is, and contrary to the constant teaching and tradition of the Church—the view that human beings are already, by nature, as good as they need to be, and able to live lives pleasing to God, even without the intervention of the grace that comes from Christ. Unfortunately, when people say that Catholics see people as basically good, that’s what they really mean.
But, in fact, the Catholic view about the human person is quite balanced. Once again, human beings are, indeed, good by nature, as creations of God. We’re made for a good purpose and our original design was fitting to it. But through the initial introduction of sin, our nature was wounded and perverted so we enter the world with disordered inclinations. We’re not born knowing and loving God as we ought, and we’re disproportionately concerned with our own power, pleasure, and wealth. Moreover, we find it much easier to sin than to do good, and while we have no virtues at all at the time of our birth, we’re born already with innate vices that’ll shape our moral profile for as long as we live. What I’ve described here, in laymen’s terms, is, in this order: 1) original sin, 2) disordered concupiscence, 3) the fomes, and 4) the capital sins.
In other words, while in one sense, human beings are basically good, it’s also just as true, but in a different sense, that human beings are basically and profoundly bad. It’s foolish to pretend this isn’t so. Naïve philanthropy is a notorious precursor to avoidable victimization. It’s also wise for us to remain aware of our own faults and to guard against them. And it’s dangerous to the souls of those we think we’re loving by leaving them as they are—without the gospel and the freedom it brings, to do the good we ought and to live and to love in conformity to Jesus Christ

Who missed the 4th Nordstream Pipeline?
Jeffrey Sachs tells another outrageous truth
Meryl Nass
1 hr ago
It’s one week later. The natural gas has all bubbled to the surface. Yet the pipeline owners have not been allowed to inspect the damage.
MOSCOW, Oct 4 (Reuters) - The operators of two Baltic Sea gas pipelines that linked Russia and Germany until they both sprang major leaks last week said they were unable to inspect the damaged sections because of restrictions imposed by Danish and Swedish authorities.
and it seems the sabotage missed one of the 4 pipes in the Nordstream network. This could be the biggest clue of who did it: two of the munitions hit the same pipe, and missed the 4th one. (Add a joke about how the Poles and the Yanks can’t do anything right.)
Kremlin-controlled Gazprom (GAZP.MM) has said flows could resume at the last remaining intact pipeline in the Nord Stream 2 network, a suggestion likely to be rebuffed given Europe blocked Nord Stream 2 days before Moscow sent its troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24.
From the Guardian quoting Der Spiegel is confirmation that each of the 4 blasts resulted from the equivalent of 500 kg TNT, which could have been placed there directly or been shot from a military aircraft.
Intelligence sources quoted in the news magazine Spiegel believe the pipelines were hit in four places by explosions using 500kg of TNT, the equivalent to the explosive power of a heavy aircraft bomb.
This is a really interesting post from MonkeyWerxUS.com about the sabotage events: details on the planes and a theory that the P8 Navy plane could have dropped the munitions.
I had to laugh out loud at how so many MSM blame Russia directly or with sideways smears for blowing up its own pipeline.
And the corollary is that then Russia gets blamed for for the presumed serious climate impact, too. You can’t make this stuff up. From the same Guardian article:
The methane clouds are being monitored closely. The ICOS, which is analysing the air quality, has shown footage of a huge gas cloud hovering above the Baltic Sea and moving across Europe.
Methane measuring stations in Sweden, Norway and Finland had indicated sharp rises in methane in recent days. Observation satellites are believed to have failed to record the emissions due to cloudy weather, the ICOS said.
It said the emissions were equivalent to an entire year’s methane output for a city “the size of Paris or a country like Denmark”.
“This is really bad, most likely the largest emission event ever detected,” Manfredi Caltagirone, acting head of UNEP’s International Methane Emissions Observator told Reuters.
While I heard hypotheses that the pipelines were destroyed forever by salt water, Scientific American says that is not at all correct, and later in the article describes some methods of repair.
Last week, three different sites along the underwater Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines ruptured and began leaking gas. The circumstances at Nord Stream may be unusual, but subsea pipeline damage is almost an everyday occurrence. Corrosion from salt water can cause leaks, and again and again, accidents occur as a result of commercial shipping. Nord Stream’s pipes also lie under some of the world’s busiest shipping routes. That’s why pipelines have sophisticated protection measures and repair techniques; plans for dealing with leaks and accidents are formulated as soon as the pipelines are built. Engineers will follow a set playbook to begin repairing the damaged sections of Nord Stream as soon as possible.
I warned you that Jeffrey Sachs was burnishing his reputation as a so-called whistleblower (telling us what everyone with a brain already knew, but doing so on network TV) when he said, very deliberately, that SARS-CoV-2 was developed with US-derived technology. He did not say the US created the virus. He did not say it was deliberately spread. He basically said nothing, but because Jeffrey Sachs had said it, people swooned.
So now he has repeated the trick with the pipeline explosions.
Jeffrey Sachs, a world-renowned American professor of economics, believes the opposite. Yesterday, during a TV appearance on Bloomberg, the professor raised the possibility that the Nord Stream pipeline, which brings Russian gas to Europe, was sabotaged by the US, leading television hosts to take him off air.
“There is considerable circumstantial evidence that the destruction of Nord Stream is a US operation, perhaps with other NATO countries,” Sachs, a Columbia University professor, where he also leads Center for Sustainable Development, tells TRT World.
“While nothing is certain, the evidence at this stage points towards the US as the most likely cause of the events,” he adds. Sachs’ comments came when he said that the Western narrative of ‘an unprovoked attack’ by Moscow on Kiev is a flawed argument. “The US attempt to push NATO into Ukraine and Georgia was a key reason for this war,” Sachs says.
Again, he has told us what everyone already knew, but because it was Sachs and it was network TV, there was shock and awe.
Watch for his next trick—OOPS, I already saw it. The Lancet COVID Commission. In which Sachs asks us to turn over $60 Billion/year to WHO to assist in its world takeover. That is why he is gilding his lily. He has a big sales job up ahead.
