Blatant Psyops With Factual Characteristics
Truth can be dirty when she is wearing promiscuous context
Here is a link to a YouTube video. You can watch it first if you want, but it’s +25 minutes long, and it is full of a ton of Noise with a very occluded Signal. I am going to break it down on a technical/conceptual level, then give my (subjective, biased, questionable) thoughts and analysis.
This is a recent (February 2024) press conference given by one Sheriff Richard K. Jones of Butler County, OH. In it, he goes over information he was purportedly given by the FBI at some sort of law enforcement/sheriff’s conference held in Washington DC. He states that the FBI director personally shared alarming information about “more red flags” than the lead up to 9/11, and that we1 need to prepare for some kind of impending and mysterious catastrophe that will almost definitely involve “drones.”
The Sheriff starts out with his “serious” face on, and immediately preps the audience, both in the room and the predictably massive amount of people who will watch the recording later, to receive “the straight dope” by laying out the bona fides of his sources. He then launches into priming the “fear response” by hitting the hot button topics of “the border,” “the Israel,” “the terrorism,” and the fading but still somewhat potent memory of missed opportunity to act in the run up to “the 9/11.” This is then flavored with the MSG of press conferences: “I can’t tell you all the super secret info I was trusted with, but I can give you a taste…”2 He then proceeds to verbally fall all over himself trying to get this spicy info out, repeating words and phrases in the curious manner of a person using newly acquired terminology. He finally gets to a Q&A that feels more scripted than a telenovela, then wraps up saying there will be a “real” Q&A, which I have to assume is a Freudian Slip.
My original intention was to systematically go through the claims made by the Sheriff, discuss the technical particulars, and assess the veracity of the threat claims. Halfway through my first viewing, I started doing that Boomer-esque thing of passionately yelling at the screen. It’s just so transparent, and it makes me angry that this happens, that it works, and that I guarantee this presser will be ingested, masticated, and regurgitated without thought by actual good guys. So instead I will go over the facets of the psyop itself, the indicators & elements that I think stand out, and maybe someday I will do a second essay that attempts to elaborate on the technical claims. I want to say this though, and I am burying this lede down here because it’s a bit radioactive: a false flag is incoming. I don’t think it will be one big event, rather concurrent waves of smaller events, ranging from assassinations and ambushes to mass shootings and infrastructure attacks.3
I do not know Sheriff Jones, and I only have physiognomy and socio-linguistic cues to go off of. He appears to be a stand up guy, or maybe he was and now works very hard to maintain the image. He’s losing his accent from spending too much time with big city bureaucrats, and he may or may not be in fighting trim physically, but past these inferences I have no idea about him as a person. Butler County has a population of +300,000. According to the Census Bureau4 they are ~80% White5, ~55% older than 18 and under 65 years of age, ~91% high school graduated and ~32% college graduated, ~11% at or below poverty level, and the density is ~836 humans per square mile. You can look over the numbers yourself via the link, I am neither statistician nor demographer, but I am a Noticer that has travelled extensively in my country. Butler is an overwhelmingly “good” place to live. These are people who work, participate, and contribute both economically and culturally6. Butler County is probably an excellent proxy for Suburban America as a subset of Americans, and this was likely a significant factor in targeting the Sheriff with the payload; viruses and diseases favor lung tissue for both manufacturing and propagation reasons.
Throughout this press conference there are oodles of red flags and indicators that suggest tactical “received information” to me.7 At one point he invokes “Maslow’s Hierarchy of Need” in the perplexing way a person uses a recently discovered term or phrase, like he is tasting it, exploring how it might or could work. I do this too when I discover a word that I deem useful or tasteful; I inject it constantly, trying to mentally map the proper parameters for use, and of course abuse. Toddlers and children do this as well, oftentimes with epithets at inconvenient and hilarious moments. While the Hierarchy Of Need is not a high level concept, and far be it from me to insinuate that Sheriffs as a group wouldn’t be familiar with it, something about his delivery screams: “ah yes, this term with which I am familiar, quite familiar, and you are also familiar with it as well because we are serious people talking seriously about serious things.”
The Sheriff tries his hand at Neocon Talking points with the strong implication that Russia and/or China and/or Iran are secretly building Higgins Boats, LSTs, giant balloons, and globe crossing jets with the intention of invading Our Fair Nation. Anyone that believes this is happening, or even possible, is lying or stupid8. The only time Iran “attacks” the US is by proxy or outpost as they lack the capacity to get anywhere near the US by conventional means. China cannot even invade Taiwan, but somehow they are going to sail to the Pacific Northwest and deliver the fentanyl by hand? And I guess Russia is going to march over the melted north pole, rape a few polar bears, then hop/skip/jump across Canada? Pull the other one, it’s got bells on it. Russia did not manipulate any elections in the US. China is terrible at fighting wars outside of China, and Iran is teetering on the brink of polyglot balkanization as they have been since before the Shah was playing pattycake with the OSS. The assertion that any of this Axis Of Unbelievable are planning to invade should mark the claimant as a buffoon.
The relentless references to “drones” is an interesting case of the truth being used to lie. Yes, drones9 are a truly disruptive factor in both war and peace. As I write this, three hellishly expensive American M1A1 Abrams tanks have been recently defeated by hilariously cheap drones that were probably made in China. That should be a terrifying thought, but like the Zulu10 our retarded managerial overlords worship staring at the shining brass of Gatling gun barrels and laughing, it appears the military intelligence institutions of the West remain confident that we can trade away billions for thousands in a war of attrition and still come out on top. While the Powers That Be may be behind the eight ball on this one, the “bad guys” are not. Indeed, it appears that the Lesser Powers, like Iran and Turkey, are exceedingly aware of the potential of drones in politics by other means, and Hamas, Hezbollah, the Cartels, and boatloads of other bandits are taking note. The key question with drones is production costs and scale. A one-off drone terrorist attack would be, well, terrifying, but it’s a vastly different thing than an endless armada of suicide drones wiping out battalions of men & vehicles. It is something to be aware of, to plan for and think about, but going into Chicken Little Mode is probably not the answer.
Part of that Chicken Little tendency is illuminated by his statements about how the sheriff’s department + local government are running a training course for “concerned citizens” but, golly gee, wouldn’t you know it, there are too few seats and too many people trying to attend! Fire Sale! Don’t be the guy who missed out! Run, don’t walk, to John Q. Preparedness’ Official and State Sanctioned Survival Course!!! He talks a lot about the training course, so much so that he lets slip that it is based on a curriculum they were handed by the feds, and of course paid for by the feds. I would be very interested if anybody could get a copy of whatever handout/text they put out for this class, but I don't have to see it to know that it would basically boil down to "hide in your house, don't do anything rash or unofficially sanctioned, and trust the government representatives that show up… also guns & drones are scary and should only be controlled by the Good Guys With Badges."
The real red flag the invocation of “drones” represents is the fact that the Federal Government has far more to be concerned about than the People. Indeed, the true message hidden in plain view is that this fearmongering has only one real goal: give up autonomy & capacity and invite the federal bureaucrats in “for safety.” Here are the Sheriff’s 3 stated intiatives:
1) Border security task force
2) Cyber task force 24/7
3) Ability to charge anyone pulled over with a federal felony
Each of the above is code for inviting the feds in to set up a " fusion center" which will be ostensibly for external threats and inevitably pointed at anyone who is considered a domestic threat. This is the real message, the actual payload. One of the more clever aspects of this, and I will admit that it wrongfooted me at first, is his appearance to be willing to say the quiet part out loud when it comes to the border and migrants. If he is showing an official fed message, how can he also be saying a MAGA message? As with everything else this guy does, he belabors the point excessively. Eventually he slips up and indicates what the real message is: don't trust your neighbors. So the bait is dangerous migrants and the switch is dangerous citizens. With every data point he invokes and then repeats, you can basically see the PowerPoint made by the bureaucrat in the Hoover building that was shown to him. This information is completely doctored, it was prepared specifically for guys like the Sheriff to see, react to, and convey in a manner that will separate the “sheep” from the “goats.”
The last segment of this farce is the canned “Q&A” portion. When he starts the Q&A, you can tell from his body language that he is picking someone pre-selected, just look at the way he gestures and where his eyes go. Hilariously, the opening line of the "journalist" is "it's an honor to be in your presence today." He then gives a softball about Biden, which the sheriff uses to reinforce his MAGA bona fides, and hilariously at the end of the answer, he taps his nose in the classic "we have a shared secret" signal directly at the camera, which is of course in the exact same direction as the planted question11. The same "reporter" that set up the first T-ball question then chimes back in without any motivation to drop the DHS tagline (see something, say something) and sets up the second t-ball with, of course because it is old fashioned boomer feds, a hotline.
The Sheriff constantly repeats, "I'm not trying to alarm you, I am trying to arm you," and it is reasonable to assume he was fed that line at the conference, though I wonder if it was on the Power Point, in the remarks, or fed to him via conversation. As well, he cannot help but reiterate how "fresh and credible" the information is. As I indicated in footnote 02, most thinking men have a very hard time not being attracted by the idea of insider or secret info. Everything about this delivery suggests, to me at least, that this was coached and instigated; it is highly unlikely that this sheriff ran home from DC and shot from the hip. Of course, he is absolutely convinced that is what he is doing, but I am comfortable asserting that he was groomed and pointed. Put another way, I don't think there were frantic and panicked phone calls going back and forth in the Hoover building over this "big reveal." I will put myself even further into the realm of possible "egg on face/ foot in mouth" and say that the FBI itself might have had the same treatment they gave the Sheriff, probably from some Curiously Idiotic Assholes. But if that were the case, the Foolish Bungling Idiots would be over-responding to the Sheriff leaking this critically sensitive info. Is that what we see happening? Is this Sheriff being hounded by DOJ lawyers, smacked with gag orders, or pursued and arrested by officers from a neighboring police force?12 Or is he being megaphoned across social media?
I know a lot of this may seem like an attack on the Sheriff, normiecons, boomers, and other folks, and I guess it is in a way, but I want to be clear that psyops like this target generally good people. It is their inherent legitimacy at the cultural level that facilitates successful payload delivery. If the information was conveyed by some sodomite with bureaucratic characteristics, the target audience would not listen, dismiss the info out of hand, or assume the opposite. So the psyop-ers have to get the payload from their possession through a “valid” conduit and into the hearts & minds of the people they are trying to manipulate. They get the Sheriff and his clade sequestered in a place where they are intimidated or overawed and therefore blindly receptive to all the information conveyed. They package it in a way that the Sheepdog Archetype has no choice but to run with it out of the honest impulse to react, to “do something,” to be proactive with a potential threat to the people they love and protect. Once this impulse is engaged, the sky is the limit for the amount of disinformation, agitation propaganda, and outright lies they seek to promulgate.
Amerikaners have a tendency to trust badges. We want law & order, and it is terribly hard for us to discern malicious payloads when they are packaged with the trappings and artifacts of what we perceive to be the elements of it. The Summer of Floyd is the gift that keeps on giving for the Cathedral. There were definitely missteps, and obviously not all of us have been snowed under, but it is no simple task getting good people to recognize that police are a good thing but The Police are not on our side. I strongly feel that we have come to the point where we must completely disengage with anything that is connected to “federal sources,” and this is almost without exception13. If you must engage with messages and messengers coming from or using this tainted well, you must do so with the assumption that everything said is a lie, and if it’s true they aren’t being honest about it.
Something is Coming. We are on a collision course with Fate, Destiny, and History. But I remain convinced that neither bureaucrats in DC nor their badge carrying enforcers are going to do anything about it in a way that ends positively for us.
Americans, presumably…
Everybody eats this up, and anyone who pretends they are unmoved by access to secret info is lying or stupid. This is an inevitable consequence of living in a system that is Doused In Deceit: lies are the expectation, so the entire IQ bell curve just assumes there is a story behind the story in all cases.
I don’t want to fall down this rabbit hole any further, but I feel compelled to point out that there should be no expectation of clarity or obviousness regarding any of the previously stated happenings; they will always be portrayed as normal, very normal, not untoward in any way, ZOMG why would you think there was anything suspicious ha ha wow dude kinda schizo ha ha. For the duration of Clown World, we will never be able to categorically state What Has Happened.

…or 77% if Hispanic/Latino isn’t counted as “White”… this is a funny game DOJ, FBI, Census, and every other Cathedral Apparatus likes to play when cooking the statistics. They include mestizos when they want it to look like whites commit crime anywhere near the ballpark of “others,” but when they are handing out welfare, sinecures, and gibbs, suddenly it is a distinct category. lmao, I guess.
~90% of “households” have broadband internet
We all deal with “received information,” and far too many of us deal in it: someone we respect, or fear, delivers a crafted concept, phrase, or term, and we then convey it outward, sometimes explicitly, like with Global Warming buzzwords and sometimes implicitly when we subconsciously portray females as Victims and males as Aggressors via linguistic choices.
If I am wrong and we are headed for a reenactment of the Red Alert II storyline, you can tell me I was wrong as many times you like while we fight to reclaim New York and California after they have been, uh, “cleaned up” a bit.
I know this is a lost cause in terms of lexicon, but a “drone” is an autonomous device that is uncontrolled. The proper term is RPV, or Remotely Piloted Vehicle. Drones are a thing, undeniably, but we are neither technologically nor logistically at the place where they are relevant yet, and we should thank Nature’s God for that fact.
This bears no relevance to the essay, but it is always fun to recall and draw attention to how West African militias would put on life preserver vests before battle because they bore a passing resemblance to the flack jackets the saw the UN do-nothing soldiers wearing. Isn’t that funny, kind of like wearing a surgical mask to keep the almighty Corona Virus from getting inside you and turning you into a Republican?
At a certain point, the Sheriff brings up how the impeachment of Myorkas is bad, very bad, a foolish waste of resources; I challenge anyone who may think I am off base or incorrect to explain why some very out of touch Sheriff suddenly has an opinion on Myorkas, and how he can have all of these ostensibly MAGA opinions yet somehow falls in line with the beltway bandits on the guy destroying America with his border policies.
The linked case is interesting, and not at all black & white. I leave it to the reader to utilize reason, physiognomy, and wisdom to suss out who is what in particular, because my larger point is orthogonal to the details: there is no limit to the tools available to silence LEOs that step out of line with the Feds.
When is the last time a “leak” was actually a leak?
