The Torch Report

You are exceptional. That is both an accurate statement and an honest assessment. You are exceptionally curious, you are exceptionally open-minded, you are exceptionally rational, you are exceptionally critical of narratives, exceptionally skeptical of governments, exceptionally interested in truth, and exceptionally well-informed. How do I know this? I know this, because if you were not exception...

Let's set the record straight. Any serious debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump would be an absolute blowout. There is no way, not a snowball’s chance in hell, that the Sock Puppet would stand a chance squaring off with The Don. Regardless, suggesting that this debate would in any way be detrimental to Donald Trump is political theater at its finest. Which brings us to the headlines at Drudge...

Top down control. The entire globalist agenda is about implementing top-down control. This is, for policy wonks, known as “vertical integration”—and there is a science to it. To get a glimpse of how it works, consider this excerpt from the UN’s Department of Economic and Social Affairs Policy Brief #115: Horizontal and vertical integration are more necessary than ever for COVID-19 recovery and SDG...

It’s strange… It appears that no matter where we look, the world has gone awry. Put differently, there appears to be a significant increase in the percentage of the population who are now casually accepting completely batshit crazy behavior, as if being crazy has somehow become normal. Whereas normal people used to mock, scoff, and call out socially unacceptable behavior, ridiculing and rejecting...

Well, well, well… What have we here? I’ll be damned if it’s not our favorite “nation no one has heard of,” Burkina Faso. At the outset, and for the record, that makes this the FOURTH summer in a row that Burkina Faso has cropped up in the headlines, in the month of June. Strange coincidence, isn’t it? Just to quickly recap, from TR 135 - The Importance of Believing Impossible Things , and remember...

Here we go again. As we launch into another week of relentless propaganda, fearmongering, judicial witchcraft, and government gaslighting, there are a few things everyone should keep in mind: * Nothing is as it appears. Everything is simultaneously not nearly as bad as the media would have you believe, and at least twice as bad as you might think, depending on the subject. * The cabal keeps marchi...

***Friendly Friday reminder: the podcasts are better than the reports… it’s not just some AI reading the text, it’s me putting my heart and soul into it. Also, my editor took the day off, so this one is coming raw, hot off the press. Enjoy! It’s a fast moving train. Yesterday, Donald Trump was found guilty on 34 felony charges in the sham “hush money” show trial—without the judge ever specifying w...

I have to admit… I’ve been feeling a little cynical lately, almost jaded, like my give-a-damn’s damn near busted. Coming back to the news after the long weekend was underwhelming to say the least, and it never ceases to amaze me at just how low the bar for “news” has become. It drives me nuts! Nevertheless, this is what the masses are getting fed: It seems wildly inexplicable to me that after all...

This will be fun. I’m going to keep this fast and furious Friday foray as light-hearted as possible. With all the talk about governments using weaponized AI for mind control yesterday , and the news about the Chinese Communist Party unleashing robot dogs with mounted machine guns today, I can’t help but smile and be grateful for the little things in life. For those in the know, these robotic dogs...

It’s odd. For whatever reason, whenever I write about weaponized AI and intelligent machines being used to enslave and control the whole of humanity, far fewer people seem interested than when I write about something like Trump’s legal drama, radical environmentalists, the invasion of illegal aliens, or Russia! Russia! Russia! and the never-ending threat of nuclear war. Nevertheless, I persist in...

It was an honor. I recently had the opportunity to speak on strategies for grassroots engagement and political impact to a Libertarian group out in Virginia Beach. Interestingly enough, about a year ago the group had split up due to a disagreement over whether or not to let “outsiders” come in and speak to their group. On the one side were the pragmatic Libertarian activists who realized that if t...

Here we go. It’s just another day, and Americans are being treated to another series of lies coming out of the White House, another wild brawl in the streets, another “coordinated” arson attack , another sham day in the kangaroo courts of injustice, another report of skyrocketing retail theft , another ominous warning about World War 3 , another threat about a cyberattack taking down the grid, ano...

What a week! It’s Friday, and before we wade into the foray, I’d like to drop a quick personal note and apologize for the abrupt departure from routine. I didn’t get reports put together on Wednesday and Thursday because, well, I simply didn’t have the time to do it justice. I figured it’s better to skip a day, than to offer up a subpar report! That said, I’d like to pick up where we left off on T...

Deception is in the air. I’d like to point out two opposing headlines to start today’s discussion: * The Tide Turns: Research On COVID Vaccine Harms, Once A Taboo Subject, Now Appearing In Some Medical Journals * Flood of Fake Science Forces Multiple Journal Closures The juxtaposition strikes me as ironic. Of all the things that could be out in the news today, in the midst of all the noise, we get...

Perhaps it’s not what it seems. Sorry not sorry friends, I’ve just got to do this! I grew up in Alaska. Prior to joining the Army at the ripe age of 18, the farthest I’d ever traveled from the Kenai Peninsula was a six-hour bus trip to play hockey in the Matanuska Valley. Needless to say, I watched the Northern Lights— aka the aurora borealis—numerous times during my formative years. Never were th...

This one’s for you… You know who you are. In a recent conversation at a local event, a fellow veteran ribbed me a little for not talking more about the invasion of military age males—many of them known terrorists and agent provocateurs streaming in from hostile nations—that are currently streaming across our southern border. Allow me to rectify the situation. The reason I haven’t held the immigran...

**My editor is taking a horse blanket to the dry cleaners and I’m running on fumes, so you’re getting this one raw… thanks for the grace! Let’s recap. Thus far this week, we’ve covered a macro level synopsis of what we’re up against, linked the campus protests to the Marxist Cultural Revolution—calling out Bill Ayers in the process—and then took a philosophical detour into the counter-intuitive ye...

It may sound strange—coming from a guy who’s been dubbed a “political activist”—for me to advocate aloofness. After all, I’ve been preaching the need for much greater civic engagement for years, as I believe that is the most tactical solution to restoring our Constitutional Republic. So what the hell am I talking about, what’s this interesting power of being aloof? Let’s start with a simple defini...

As promised, today we will depart from the lofty macro-level analysis and dive directly into the distracting, depressing, and utterly despicable headlines. This will be fun. Where shall we start? How about with these idiots: No doubt you’ve been keeping up with all the latest on the campus “protesters” raising all hell across the country. Classes have been suspended, graduation ceremonies have bee...

Time flies when the world is going to hell in a handbasket. Before diving into the news analysis today, I’d like to apologize for the absence last week. Thank you to those who reached out to check on me, and thanks to those who chided me with some friendly jabs—you know I’ve not been slacking! Last week was a flurry of interviews and meetings at the local level, that very much connect to the overa...
