Russiagate fairytales; officials who made them up; journalists who won Pulitzers brainwashing; the hack that wasn’t. Corporate media got a twofer – Trump Derangement Syndrome & stoked-up hatred for Russia. A LIMINAL MOMENT. MSM & Deep State will fight back youtube.com/watch?v=bc6m2p…
Today at 3 pm ET I'll be on Connnect the Dots w/Wilmer Leon. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has thrown down the gauntlet. Now she runs another gauntlet of spooks & media full of, er, awardees of faux Pulitzers Link for both LIVE and replay youtube.com/live/zglM5b2C7…
I was called a “one-act pony” for pursuing the truth on Russia-gate for all those years. But I did manage to persuade best-selling author James Bradley (Flags of Our Fathers) not to continue writing Prostitutes, Pee, & Putin. Bradley, in turn, wrote this. covertactionmagazine.com/2021/11/05/ray….
FBI’s James Comey wrote in Higher Loyalty (2018): “I was making decisions in an environment where Hillary Clinton was sure to be the next president.” So Comey/Brennan/Clapper played fast & loose w/the law, convinced they would be both immune and rewarded. raymcgovern.com/2018/10/20/pol…
Three months before the 2014 Maidan coup, a senior Ukrainian deputy stood in Parliament and called the whole damn thing out,Washington was orchestrating a civil war right on Ukrainian soil. He didn’t sugarcoat it: US-backed NGOs like USAID, operating straight out of the American…
A daunting challenge: what will Trump say on Ukraine. tonight. Ryabkov says it all: “Trump’s inconsistent actions & statements are not making our work easier!” Trump at a fork in the road; my guess is he will give priority to thaw in relations with Russia. youtube.com/watch?v=qJ0hnj…
Rubio says Lavrov offered Thursday a “new, different approach” to talks on Ukraine which he will “take back to president Trump.” apnews.com/article/us-rus… Larry & Judge see no flexibility in Russia’s public terms. Misses the point, in my view. See last 5 min youtube.com/watch?v=uANO_n…
Elizabeth Murray & I in Berlin today till Jul 12 when we speak at Schiller Institute Conference. schillerinstitute.com/man-is-not-a-w…. My panel at 4 am ET; EM’s at 8:30. Hans-Christof von Sponeck & Russia's Prof. Dmitri Trenin are on my panel. Streaming in English at youtube.com/@SchillerInsti…
Judge Napolitano asks me about the tour Elizabeth Murray are starting with our first large speaking engagement this evening. I wore 22 yr-old T-shirt (from Iraq days) quoting Sofie Scholl student founder of die Weisse Rose: “Wir Schweigen Nicht!” youtube.com/watch?v=rb CP5LqFUQo
VIPS proved Russiagate a fraud back in December 2016: (See: consortiumnews.com/2016/12/12/us-…). CIA just put out a hilarious defense of tradecraft on R-gate. VIPS’s NSA alumni have built and tested methodology to thwart crime AND remain in compliance with the law. consortiumnews.com/2025/07/05/dat…
Supreme Leader Khamenei has final say on whether Iran builds nuclear weapon. He said NO in 2003; is now pressured to say YES. With IAEA out, Iran can now build nukes secretly and quickly. Nima describes FATWA at min 1:02:15. John Helmer & I duel at 49:35. youtube.com/live/mhpK2A_I7…
Many of my stories were there for the telling, thanks to Katie Halper. It was a hard act to follow the eloquent Dr. Assal Rad, but Katie gave me space for vignettes – all of them true. Special thanks to the 17k of you "followers" who watched the livestream youtube.com/live/gNmHR6PtS…
I will be on Katie Halper show, which begins at 7:00 ET this evening. I’ll be second speaker (starting around 7:45), but Katie tells me that no one should miss Dr. Assal Rad, the first speaker at 7:00. Will be streamed: youtube.com/live/gNmHR6PtS… x.com/kthalps/status…
Tune in Tuesday July 1 at 7pm ET to see Middle East expert & media analyst @AssalRad & ex-CIA analyst @raymcgovern talk about Iran, Gaza, Ukraine, NATO and more! youtube.com/live/gNmHR6PtS…
Ukraine’s “irreversible path” to NATO officially reversed. 5% of GDP is a chimera. Zelensky says he won’t evacuate Sumy because the civilians there prevent Russia from fully striking the city with missiles! Germany has replaced US as Russia’s “Main Enemy”. youtube.com/watch?v=eaDTi_…
What luck! A week before Elizabeth Murray & I start Germany speak/tour, Berliner Zeitung runs interview of me alerting Germans & braindead European SLEEPWALKERS they nearing abyss, having learned nothing from history. Daddy Trump is leaving them home alone raymcgovern.com/2025/06/29/fea…
2 “YANKS ARE COMING OVER THERE”. Fmr CIA analyst/VIPS mbr Elizabeth Murray & I are speaking in Germany after July 4. Sponsor: Tell the Word (See BIO on raymcgovern.com.) Pls help us find best venues. We did the same in 2015: "War Starts With a Lie” youtube.com/watch?v=W7Lia8…
Ted Postol, MIT physicist emeritus and erstwhile senior aide to Chief of Naval Operations, briefed me on the Iranian uranium that “nevertheless persisted” before Friday’s Roundtable; told me “Now you know much more than Hegseth.” Damning with faint praise! youtube.com/watch?v=rzIaCN…
DIA guilty of speaking truth on Iran. DIA’s 2nd major offense. In 2015: “The Kremlin is convinced the US is preparing for regime change in Russia, a conviction further reinforced by events in Ukraine.” Will DNI Gabbard stand up for DIA? Do not hold breath dia.mil/Portals/110/Im…
John Helmer and I with Nima on Israel-Iran-US-Russia-NATO-Ukraine. The official NATO summit communique today, unlike last year, says nothing about Ukraine’s “irreversible path” to NATO membership. My guess is that today may mark the very last NATO summit youtube.com/watch?v=TVYAX8…
Iran-Israel and Russia-NATO-Ukraine: Discussed in some detail with Glen Diesen yesterday. youtube.com/watch?v=8MTfUB…
