ARE DEMOCRATS TRYING TO LOSE???
2026/10/01
New economic numbers are out and despite trying a novel new formula, they still suck. Last month was the sole bright spot of the past 2 years and revisions have wiped it out. The Democratic Minority leader has one job: Win the Senate. In a cycle where the Republicans are historically unpopular, Democrats have not taken full advantage. Bernie Sanders is working circles around all of them. Title IX has been under attack since day 1 of this regime, along with the Department of Education. Nothing could be more precient given the news that is coming out of Cornell, LSU and college campuses everywhere. RIP to Kristi and Bryan Noem’s marriage. Thoughts and Prayers.

PROSECUTOR CAUGHT IN LIES!!!
2026/10/01
The United States officially withdrew from Iraq, leaving behind another legacy of death and destruction. Years later, we have the same people telling the same lies keeping the entire region in turmoil. Speaking of blasts from the past, this week has been full of false flags and talks of “sleeper cells”. Its truly infuriating to be lied to again with such lazy rebrands of the same bullsh!t. In a devastating Drop Site News Exclusive, survivors of Minaub School Bombing tell their stories and the stories of the children alive and martyred. We go over a few of the stories. The DA has been caught lying in the Cornell Frat R@pe saga. Attempts to discredit Jane Doe have been obliterated. Cornell’s shady history of sex scandal cover ups has ties to Epstein Files Doctor Dr. Pachud. LSU football player also faced no reprecussions for his rape (admitted) of his fellow freshman.

ITS A COMPLETE FAILURE!!
2026/09/29
War in West Asia and Northern Africa is spreading and melding into one giant conflict. As Iran and the US continue to trade blows, war is happening on both sides of the Red Sea now as major conflict breaks out in Ethiopia and is blending with the war in Sudan. And the ties binding it all together are Israel and the UAE. ICE has gone silent, but not away—arrests increase as headlines decrease. Stay safe out there and don’t let your loved ones get kidnapped! Ai continues to break laws, and now there is a fresh lawsuit against the megalomaniacs. If existing laws were enforced entirely, these companies would be broken up and their founders investigated and likely arrested. Facebook’s “Muse”exists about 20 minutes before it puts a person’s life in jeopardy. Instead of worrying about future, hypothetical harm, lets concentrate on the crimes committed every day. The Racist system of Policing needs to go and the latest proof of that is in Oklahoma where major law enforcement officials and local electeds are caught on tape pining for the racist, violent days of yore. The Cornell Seven is too good a name for what these monsters are. The failure of systems to protect this woman are shocking. The fact that 50 men received that message and still she endured what she endured for almost 7 hours is brutal. The VMAs are rigged and Taylor Swift has always been terrible. Welcoming all newcomers to the Taylor Hate Club. The Lesbian Bar controversy continues to rage online. While some are engaged in hateful rhetoric, there are many conversation this has sparked that are worth having as well.

ARREST THESE PEOPLE!!!
2026/09/28
The Gang Audits the Pentagon Part 2! Susan Collins, one of many Republicans in a tight race for Senate who has taken money from Epstein Billionaires to vote against the release has blessed us with a new scandal that allows us to look at the corruption pipeline from the Pentagon to Congresspeople and how they get their cut. And a horrifying revelation about how depraved these Defense Contractors really are—arrest them. China is the excuse for Ai push and yet these Billionaires are at a gala with Xi Jinpeng. Meanwhile, UPS drops stealth tech on China’s doorstep. These Ai CEO’, are breaking the law. They are doing it very publicly and no new laws need to be passed to put an end to this just arrest them. The latest in the Nolan Wells case should have everyone extremely pissed tf off. There is NO excuse for their not be an indictment. These boys need arrested and questioned and justice needs served. New arrests in the Tasia Fortune hanging prove what we all know—Black folks don’t hang themselves. The layers of failure in the Cornell 7 Sex Assault Scandal are multitudinous. Why are we not talking about widespread arrests? The professors and the other men in the group chat have responsibility, too.

INCLUSIONMAXXING
2026/09/24
Clavicular, a right wing influencer know for misogyny, bigotry and racism is finally charged with some of his crimes. These charges are particularly heinous and of a variety that plagues conservatism. Transportation is an easy early first warning sign for major economic crises and right now its all flashing red. Price of diesel can only make things worse at this point, so what is in store for us? Likely fewer options and higher prices. LGBTQIA kids face bullying every day and just like any vulnerable kid it is up to underpaid and overworked teachers to come to their aid. Some states have been making that harder and harder for the past two years based on this trend of LGBTQIA hate. Pete Beuttegeig would be the first gay president, or would he? His stances (or lack of a stance) on issues important to the base seem pretty pre-disqualifying. Bar closing raise questions about the importance of Inclusion and how far it needs to extend. The obvious answer seems like to every person but the reality does not reflect that just yet. Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe
LOCK THEM UP!!
2026/09/24
Trump rolling out the Red Carpet for Xi Jinping (literally). This comes after an already shameful day at the UN where Iran laid out US War Crimes for the world to see. In Palestine, Lebanon and Syria the Blue and White 51st State is demolishing neighborhoods at breakneck speed. The daily violence continues despite US claims of Ceasefire. ICE causes fatal car accident. Another instance of their unmarked rentals running people off the road—it was only a matter of time before this happened and it wont be the last if they continue on this way. Nolan Wells’ Family speaks out after the Grand Jury fails to give his mysterious death and the circumstances around it even a single day in the sunlight of Justice. Police, ICE and the entire system need torn to the studs—if there is even anything salvageable there in the racist foundations. While Republicans like Susan Collins continue to be comic book villains, Democrat Senator is preaching compromise and helping Trump “Save Face” and Hakeem Jeffries is caught holding another clandestine meeting with Big Tech, Tobacco and Oil. Friends like this—amirite, Dude? Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe
PURE, UNCUT PROPAGANDA
2026/09/22
FINALLY! Trump launches Trump TV a 24/7 Streaming YouTube Channel dedicated to mainlining MAGA stories and avoiding tough questions and indeed reality. Dem AGs cave on Paramount Merger Lawsuit putting it one step closer to happening. Moms of Liberty, the MAGA moms group once on the rise, is still out there flailing even as it draws its dying breatths. Even after crushing electoral losses nationwide, they still spew hate with classic Republican hypocrisy. Speaking of Republican hypocrisy, Lauren Boebert is caught using taxpayer dollars to hush her sexual misconduct with staffers. The poster child for Republican culture (a teen mother who married young)proves that those things make you neither happy nor virtuous. Ed Sheeran manages to make himself even less likable after his non-apology apology goes viral. Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe
LAST CHANCE WARNING!!!
2026/09/22
Saudi Arabia does a war crime against the Yemeni joining the long list commited by US and its allies and with US weapons. West Bank Annexation has a particularly busy weekend as Israeli elections approach. Shocking new warning on climate change warns that we are approaching the point of no return very quickly. The recent acceleration of harmful policies have really brought us to the brink. ICE of course lied about EVERYTHING in the recent shooting of a Venezuelan man here legally and he is currently being held away from his family and council. When will enough be enough? Another hanging ruled a suicide immediately, another Black Father shot in the back—the police are a net negative on society and one community in Trinidad, TX proved it. Ai Billionaires are trying to capture the regulatory space. The own not only the companies, but the propaganda and the “third parties” as well.

LIFE OR DEATH SOLIDARITY!!!
2026/09/21
War updates, we sit in the eye of the storm, waitin on the next phase. Rhetoric and propaganda abound and it can be difficult to sort fact from fiction. Eventually, the truth always surfaces. How close is a ground invasion, really? ICE shoots a man in Austin for the crime of being brown. A Black man found in MD hanging. Mainstream Media is wasting time trying to demonize Hasan Piker? There used to be a real media that brought down Nixon, now despite their ass-kissing News Outlets are banned from the White House. One of the biggest failures has been reporting on Ai. There are clear and PRESENT dangers that the Tech Oligarchs are presenting. Ai is a PRODUCT, SOFTWARE—not a god or skynet. The real danger is those who weild it and no I don’t mean China. Independent Truckers are gathering a strike. Some would want to punish them for their overwhelming support of Trump. Brad explains why that would be a mistake. We are facing down techno-facism, we can only win if we use every tool at our disposal and a strike would be a critical one. Violence against LGBTQIA community is also growing. One of the places people seem to want to draw a line with solidarity is within this community. No part of any community can be left behind. Finally we explore some Threads that show how the economy is affecting real people in unseen ways and remember why we need each other.

ITS NOT HELPING!!!
2026/09/17
The Fed hikes rates hoping to slow inflation by stifling demand. They dont really have a choice and it wont really help but at least they aren’t listening to Trump. His response to this is a level of economic illiteracy that is truly shocking. Best of luck everyone, shit can only get worse. Turkey begins a crackdown of LGBTQIA people all across the country. Its not technically national policy, but localities are placing people in prison for who they are. Of Course Elon Musk loves this and is feeding to a hungry MAGA base. Literally, hungry since he cut food stamps. Gotta talk about Ed Sheeran, too —what a f*ckin LOSER, now hes tied to yet another Epstein All-Star Robert Kraft.

ITS ALL COLLAPSING!!!
2026/09/17
Iran and Yemen have all but ended US influence in the Gulf. We are stuck spending Billions of dollars on the losing effort. This is big setback for Billionaires trying to turn Gaza into a resort. If little old Ansarallah can cause this much disruption, tourism is tough sell. Israel gets what they need from the Regime. Meanwhile they are already escalating violence in Palesting, Lebanon and Syria. Congress puts in a day of work but manages to escape without doing anything too meaningful. The AI warning you need to know is about who is in charge of it. These CEOs are setting us up, not just to cash in but also to avoid responsibility for its destructive tech.

IMPEACH HIM NOW!!! CONGRESS EXPOSED!!!
2026/09/15
Keira is a veteran who, motivated by the clear illegality of DOGE and ICE early in the administration, decided to take the case for impeachment from the people to Congress. She helped to found Citizen’s Impeachment a grassroots organization that refuses to stop demanding accountability and action. She was met with cold indifference and open hostility by members of both parties and their staffers. Despite this, the organization continues to grow with thousands of people taking daily action to encourage politicians to ACTUALLY hold this entire administration— accountable including the President. Early on, it became clear that enmeshed members on both sides had no interest in upholding their Oath of Duty to the Constitution so a pivot was made. Citizen’s Impeachment hit the campaign trail with their pledge for candidates to introduce articles of impeachment upon election to Congress. 25 of those Candidates have advanced to the primaries. Major Jason Watson, the Air Force Veteran arrested on the steps of the Capitol in full uniform calling for Trump’s impeachment is a part of this movement. Keira talks about the day, the arrest, his current solitary detention and finally an upcoming visit with him after a long fight. Full of colorful stories from the fight to get Congress to do their job, don’t miss this vibrant discussion of all the highs and lows of fighting to finally, really hold the powerful to account.

AI BUBBLE IS GOING TO BURST!!
2026/09/14
There is a lot of stuff floating around out there about what is happening in Yemen. We sort through what is true and false about the Houthis, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Yemen and the region. Turns out, the Genocide in Palestine and Lebanon is extremely important to the people of the region even if their leaders are willing to work with the perpetrators. Israel ramps up violence again this weekend with impunity and there is a rising star in Israeli politics and its not better than Bibi. Ai companies are suddenly begging for regulation and to say the timing is suspicious is a wild understatement. We look for the truth from two Ai Experts who really put in the work and research to sort through the b******t and figure out the difference between LLMs and earth shaking technology. Flock cameras are watching our every move but it turns out they hate to be watched. Is there even a constitution if we continue to surrender right after right? There is no application of the law equally. Sydney Sweeney strikes again, but its not so much the ad as what it represents and hyporcisy of the right. Not to mention the real, material dangers of betting apps grooming kids, especially young men. Patriotism or nah? All three friends share three seperate perspectives of patriotism and its effects and if there is anything worth salvaging about this place? (Yes) Get full access to DEREALiZATIONNATiON Media Network at jwardle13.substack.com/subscribe
USING YOUR MONEY FOR BRIBES, KEEPING LGBTQIA FOLKS SAFE
2026/09/10
Trump’s SEC has made it legal to bribe politicians. In fact, its practically mandatory. Another big win for the cancer that is private equity. Sentencing and Justice finally comes for a Black Trans man lured to a home and stabbed to death. Teenager faces stalking charges for threatening a gay classmate and other LGBTQIA news. Plus, “normal” gays and Terfs—are they making life worse for the rest of the community? What do they hope to gain by it?

MAMDANI DOES 9/11 NETANYAHU KNEW!!!
2026/09/10
If you think Hasan Piker is controversial and Black Pepper is spicy, just skip this episode. First, the war in Iran escalates in ways that are changing the world order. The Balance of Power is shifting and its too soon to say where it will land. One thing is certain the US is no longer the main character. Squishy Liberals found out today that Benjamin Netanyahu knew about 10/7 in advance. It has been known by the left for literally years now but a report in an Israeli Newspaper has added new details and put the pro-Israel “progressives” in a tight spot. We talk about that and all the other horrifying details they still haven’t acknowledged. Speaking of unacknowledged, horrifying details we take a look back at the lies of 25 years of 9/11. Jon Stewart and Zoharan Mamdani did some of the most meaningful work, revealing the depth of the coverup of the environmental impact, while the Right spends entire news cycles blaming the whole thing on him, Hasan, Abdul el-Sayed and any other Muslim of note they can find.
