Revealed: Lindsay Kantha Souvannarath, 23, from Geneva, Illinois, who planned "Valentine's" mass murder in Halifax, Canada and was arrested last Friday "at the last minute", is not just a "misfit", but a committed Neo-Nazi - UPDATES!

Everybody hates Illinois Nazis, but this young woman had a very different view, as she was an active member of the Neo-Nazi scene: Lindsay Kantha Souvannarath, 23, who was arrested last Friday. However, her ideological background has not been reported yet, and the official line is that the planned attack had no "terrorist" or "cultural" background.

By Patrick

This post is about an incident which was reported only yesterday. On Friday, police foiled an attempt to commit mass murder "at the last minute":


Two suspects were arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit murder. One other suspect already committed suicide.

One of the two young people who were arrested on Friday is a woman called Lindsay Kantha Souvannarath, 23, who lives in Geneva, Illinois. She apparently already made a confession, according to information from the Canadian police:

Canadian police identified Lindsay Kantha Souvannarath, 23, of Geneva, Illinois, Saturday as one of three suspects who allegedly planned to open fire on Valentine's Day shoppers at a Halifax, Nova Scotia, shopping mall and then commit suicide. Souvannarath reportedly confessed to the plot after authorities arrested her at the Halifax airport.

Authorities said Souvannarath, along with co-conspirator Randall Steven Shepherd, 20, of Nova Scotia and an unnamed 19-year-old, was fixated on death and collected images of mass murders. Geneva, Illinois, police searched and removed evidence from Souvannarath’s home Friday, but did not describe what they discovered.

“This appeared to be a group of murderous misfits that were … prepared to wreak havoc and mayhem on our community. The attack does not appear to have been culturally motivated, therefore not linked to terrorism,” said Canadian Justice Minister Peter MacKay, according to the Associated Press.

Canadian Police moved on the suspects after receiving a tip on a Crime Stoppers phone line. Souvannarath was apprehended about 2 a.m., local time, Friday, CNN reported. Shepherd was arrested when he traveled to the airport to meet with the third suspect. Both Souvannarath and Shepherd were charged with conspiracy to commit murder and are to appear in court Tuesday. The third suspect died before police, who surrounded his home, were able to arrest him.

Note this passage in the quoted report:

"This appeared to be a group of murderous misfits. (...) The attack does not appear to have been culturally motivated, therefore not linked to terrorism", said Canadian Justice Minister Peter MacKay.

However, we can reveal that this statement is in fact false. We can present hard proof that Lindsay Kantha Souvannarath is in fact a committed Neo-Nazi, and has been an active member of the Neo-Nazi scene for several years. Therefore, it can be safely concluded that the planned mass murder in Canada had in fact a political right-wing terrorist background, which might be an inconvenient revelation.

This post is written on the basis of inside-information from Illinois, as well as ongoing research on internet forums. 

The media does not appear to have a lot of information about Lindsay Kantha Souvannarath yet. However, she left a long trail of very revealing information on the internet, and there is hard proof that she was a Neo-Nazi.

A lot of information about Lindsay's political views has already been uncovered on a forum where several people knew Lindsay quite well (this is currently work in progress, new information is being added constantly). Over the years, Lindsay used different identities and usernames on the internet.

We can confirm that Lindsay has a an active facebook profile under a different name: "Lindsay Shub-Niggurath":




It is not just our "assumption" that this is her facebook profile, but this fact is fully confirmed.

From a source in Illinois we received the tip that a photo from 2012 exists online, a group photo with Lindsay, which was taken at Coe College in Cedar Rapaids, Iowa, where Lindsay studied "creative writing and English" (see page 77).

In this photo from 2012, Lindsey is the girl standing at the upper right corner, positively identified through our source:




There is no doubt that this is the girl from the facebook account, who posted a lot of selfies there, for example this one:



Even without knowing about this group photo from 2012, the members of the "Kiwi Farms" forum independently confirmed her username, and also recognized the drawings from this facebook account:






Having identified this facebook account, we can take a look at the content. A lot of images are posted there, and quite a number of them have direct references to Nazism.


Particularly striking is the following one - simply posting "me taking notes in class", Lindsay posted the following drawing which she, according to her own description, drew herself "in class": 












"88" is in Neo-Nazi circles a code for "Heil Hitler", named after the position of "HH" in the alphabet.

There is more on this facebook account, but this should be enough for the moment.

However, this is by far not the end of the material.

The folks at the "Kiwi Farm" reported that Lindsay was an active member of the fascist online community "Iron March":

Information

The Iron March became an interest when someone posted it as one of Lindsay Kantha Souvannarath's grazing grounds. The Iron March is a community which Fascism is apparently still hip with the young people and because Nazism is cool, the website is full of edgelord nazis.

The Website

IronMarch.org is a 700-strong forum which is used to discuss Fascism which is a broad spectrum for extreme right-wing beliefs such as authoritarianism, totalitarianism, dictatorship, despotism, autocracy, absolute rule, Nazism, rightism, militarism. The forum itself is falling apart, which can be identified via a Forum Coup post, which shows that some members are upset with the administrators choices. However this was 'quelled', so don't expect deep thoughtful posts by its members and more bitching from edgy teenagers.

Many of these users are interestingly very young, as there is no age requirement to join the forum.

http://ironmarch.org/ - Website

fascists.zxq.net - Facist Archive Website

https://www.mixcloud.com/IronSkype/ - IronSkype which is their podcast.

Alexander Slavros - Administrator

Alexander Slavros (Powerword: Alisher Mukhitdinov, Tverskaya,) is the Administrator for the Iron March forum. Slavros was basically a National Bolshevik, he has a fascist interpretation of Stalinism. He admired Stalin, and actively denied both the Holocaust and the Holodomor. Slavos is often known to upset his administrators and community members, rocking the boat which caused this community to crumble.

Slavros is apparently still living with his parents who host his website who he fights a lot with, my recommendation is to archive anything on the IronMarch.Org website in case the website goes down.

But the members on the"Kiwi Farm" forum found even more. Among the many names Lindsay used on the internet was for example the name "HackerOnHacker."


This leads for example to Lindsay's own blog "Basement Trooper":



If we go to the blogger profile, we find the following info:



Under "favourite music", Lindsay lists exclusively Nazi-material:

Favorite Music

Nekrokrist SS Warhead Wewelsburg Taake Sturmkaiser M8L8TH PS SS Totenkopf Nokturnal Mortum Nachtkult Kriegsmaschine Infernal War Immortal Capricornus Arghoslent Endstille

Lindsay also posted this picture in an online forum - easy to recognize as well, if one has seen her facebook pictures:



Compare it with this picture from her facebook:



There is much more. I would like to refer you to the Kiwi Farm forum, where the members are particularly motivated to reveal the full facts, as they discovered to their horror that Lindsay was at some point also a part of their community. However, this rather shocking discovery also has the advantage that some people over there had dealings with Lindsay, which apparently helps enormously to uncover her digital tracks. I myself had never heard about this forum before, and I don't really know what is usually going on there, but I also think that this is not relevant for this particular investigation.

One member of the forum wrote there yesterday:

This is somewhat embrasssing to admit, but I used to know her. I used to be a member of website known as IronMarch.org. It's a forum for fascists and Nazis. Her name on the website was "With Hate As My Sword" or something very similiar. Basically, Iron March is not a white nationalist website. It's Fascist, so people like her could stick around without getting banned. The man who runs the website is multiethnic - Russian and Uzbek.

Basically, she was involved romantically with the admin/owner of the website. He is known as Alexander Slavros. His real name is Alisher Mukhitdinov, but she was deeply in love with him. Slavros never really cared about her, and was pulling her around for a :ruse:, basically. One of the site users told her that Slavros was going to break up with her during a Skype group call, and she went absolutely ballistic. She wanted to kill herself and die. Because of her psychotic behavior, they were able to stick together for a little longer. They broke up, and she was a shell of her former stuff. She was deeply depressed and mentally ill after the incident. (...)

She was also legit necrophile. She got off on dead people and wrote stories about it, which explains her obession with that creepy skeleton shit. The only mystery regarding her sexuality was whether she wanted to be eaten or if she wanted to be the eater.

Screenshot:


Lindsay's "Iron March" account can be accessed here:



Screenshots from some her postings on the "Iron March" forum (click to enlarge):






Her username at the "Iron March" forum is "Hate As My Sword". I think it is extremely likely, judging from the username and the content, that this twitter account is hers as well, although this can probably not been regarded as fully confirmed at this point. But the posted pictures there are also extremely similar to the above facebook account, maybe even identical, I haven't looked through all the pictures yet. Reviewing it again, I have no doubts that this is her twitter account:



Finally:

A leading contributor at the "Kiwi Farm" forum has alleged that this is Lindsay's tumblr (screenshot):


Also, they wannabe mass murderers apparently posted this picture on 11th February as an "announcement" of their planned "Valentine's day" mass murder spree in Canada:


Even there, with the words "Der Untergang", the German title of the movie "The Downfall", about Hitler's last day in the bunker in Berlin, and the username "Cockswastika", the obvious right-wing background is only barely hidden. One would have to be totally blind to ignore it.

More material:

Here is the facebook of co-conspirator James Gamble, who killed himself when the police tried to arrest him.

From the material which has already been found online it is apparent that Lindsay is a Neo-Nazi, and it is proven that she is a very active member of at least one fascist online community. The statement by Canadian Justice Minister Peter MacKay that the planned mass murder is "not linked to terrorism" is therefore obviously false, and needs to be corrected. 

Lindsay Kantha Souvannarath is not only obsessed with violence (see for example her postings here under the username "snoopyfemme"), but she clearly is a Neo-Nazi, as her "online contributions" prove beyond any doubt. It is therefore extremely likely, if not certain, that Lindsay's Neo-Nazi beliefs played a major role in planning the mass murder spree.

+++

UPDATE:

There are several items I would like to add to the post.

First of all, the fact that Lindsay had Nazi-views has now also been confirmed by ABC News:


In light of all the evidence, it is very disappointing to see that a report which was published by CNN today does not mention these Neo-Nazi views at all, and only repeats the quote by the Canadian Justice Minister, who called the young people "misfits", and claimed that the planned mass murder had no cultural or political background.

Second: This story, which has only received little attention in the US media so far, really reaches into the "heart" of "US white suburbia", and that is one of the most disturbing aspects here. While the Canadian Justice Minister quickly declared these youngsters to be "misfits", it should be noted that Lindsay for example was brought up in a middle-class, affluent and also very "white" part of the USA. She lived in the far west side of Geneva, Illinois, a middle-class, white area, and went to High School there.

Screenshots from the yearbook from Geneva High School which we obtained give an impression about the environment in which Lindsay grew up (yearbooks 2008/2009 and 2009/2010).

A "blue arrow" points to Lindsay - the "RPG-club" is the "Role-Gaming-Play" club. In the following picture on the right, you see one of Lindsay's drawings, and this looks already very, very familiar to us:



Lindsay took also part in a school play, and boy, this had a REALLY dark theme (see the explanation below). They might want to re-think their choice of plays, just saying! There are so many beautiful plays to choose from...





Lindsay's well-off, "proper" upbringing continued when she attended College. She studied at the rather posh Coe College in Cedar Rapids, Iowa for four years, where she obtained a degree in "Creative writing and English." Here she is in a group photo with her course from 2012 (I already mentioned this above as well):



Just as a reminder:

Lindsay apparently was already obsessed with violence back in 2007, as shown by her comments under the username "snoopyfemme" at the deviant art forum - screenshot from one of her comments:



Quote:
"Also, they use sex in commercials all the time to sell products. Why don't they ever use violence? Wouldn't you love to see a bunch of guys tearing each other apart with machine guns to get a bowl of Cheerios? Sure, it might traumatize our children, but in my opinion, children aren't being traumatized enough. The only reason for Americans to breed is to create more soldiers to fight for freedom. We need to weed out the weaklings early on. Survival of the fittest, man.

Also, I genuinely have a problem with action heroines wearing tight leather. Not only is it mixing sex with the violence, it's incredibly stupid. Tight leather is not good for fighting in. It makes you sweat, makes loud squeaky noises whenever you move, and completely eliminates all flexibility.

So, basically, I just want my violence. It's a simple desire. I just want my guns, bombs, rocket-propelled chainsaws, tanks, swords, axes, and curbstomping boots. I don't want sex interfering with any of it. Okay? Okay."

Did nobody realize that this young woman was a ticking time-bomb? In 2007, she was still a freshman! Did anyone really care? Or is it just considered to be "normal" to be obsessed with violence these days, or to be extreme right-wing?

And to be "in love" with guns as well, of course:



Third: Lindsay's youtube account has been discovered, which she opened in July 2012:



There, she posted for example a very sick "self-made" video about a girl from her school. Our source from Illinois confirmed that this girl also attended Geneva High School, but her name is unknown. It is apparent that Lindsay developed a special kind of hate of this girl, and the girl is obviously Jewish (as referenced in the video). This video, which also uses some images which Lindsay uploaded to her facebook account, provides a very disturbing insight into Lindsay's sick mind.

The video was posted in December 2013, and it was simply called "death." The depicted girl will surely be relieved that Lindsay is now behind bars.

Caution - not for the faint hearted:




UPDATE REGARDING THE GIRL IN THIS VIDEO:

The posters at the "Kiwi Farm" forum found the solution of the puzzle: This girl is apparently not a woman living in the USA, but, as Lindsay explains herself on another forum, the "new girlfriend" of her "ex", who is living in Russia. He is apparently the guy who runs the fascist "Iron March" forum, which we mentioned above.

Here are links where which Lindsay posted this information:

LINK 1

LINK 2

Screenshots:




Lindsay also clarifies that she considers herself to be a neo-fascist:



+++

Finally: Dear media, do us a favor and report the facts! To call this young, very sick woman a "misfit" simply misses the point. Lindsay is a product of middle-class, wealthy, white America. It is worth exploring the reasons why it came to this. Please try to make an effort, media, for the sake of your children!

+++

UPDATE 2:

The very, very sick "tumblr" blog of James Gamble, who killed himself when the police tried to arrest him, has been discovered, and it is just as horrific as Lindsay's stuff - and again, it is full of Nazi-imagery, as well as Nazi-music! (CAUTION!)

He has the username "Shallow Existences", also mentioned in the gruesome "Der Untergang" poster above.

How does the Canadian Justice Minister explain this?

Sir, we show you the "cultural background" of these people. You just have to open your eyes.

Screenshots:









He posted several "selfies" on his very sick tumblr - examples:



+++

UPDATE 3:

On Lindsay's very extensive "cockswastika" tumblr blog, titled "school shooter chic", Kathleen made a really interesting discovery.

On this blog, which main page is graced by a swastika...



...there is also "more of the same", for example a few more "selfies"...


...lots of images and short clips with Columbine killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold...


...many more Nazis...


...even pictures with former US Nazi party leader George Lincoln Rockwell...


...and then there is this: An explanation by Lindsay whether she considers herself to be a Nazi, and how violence is connected with her beliefs.


Quote:
Anonymous asked: So are you a Nazi? And if so could you explain why you are? I don't mean this to be rude, I am just curious.

For the sake of simplicity, I’ll say yes, I am. It is how I will be perceived regardless of how I choose to label myself, and I accept it. “Why” is such a broad question that I’m not sure where to start or what you’d need to know, but to make a long story short, it comes from a desire to refine the human race through violence. Humans are not born equal, and it is imperative that only the best specimens survive.

This is the final proof that for Lindsay, according to her own words, her Nazi-beliefs and the issue of violence cannot be separated.

Also, Lindsay made this comment on her blog on January 31, 2015, when she was in the middle of plotting the "Valentine's massacre." It was not just a random comment which was posted by her a long time ago.

Contrary to what the Canadian government tries to tell you, Lindsay regards violence as a necessity, because it is an integral part of her Nazi-ideology, and she is not shy to admit this.

This in my view is the final proof that Lindsay planned the "Valentine's massacre" in Halifax because she was a Neo-Nazi.

It can also hardly be seen as a coincidence in my opinion that this statement by Lindsay is immediately followed on her tumblr by this picture:



+++

UPDATE 4:

There is even more very disturbing, sick stuff.

The folks at the Kiwi Farm forum found more material which was created Lindsay.

In 2014, some people were discussing Lindsay's "artwork" on a picture discussion forum. They discussed the pictures she created while using the username "snoopyfemme."

(Note: You have to click on the pictures at this picture forum in order to enlarge them)

The people on this picture forum say that the following comic strip was created by Lindsay/Snoopyfemme. It provides another highly disturbing insight into Lindsay's mind. This time, it is about her hate for the gays and lesbians, and she explains in the comic strip in a very detailed way why they have to be destroyed, so to speak, and why hate is superior to love. At the end, Lindsay's female character kills the lesbian girl with a swastika.

Click here to see the (very unfunny) "comic strip"...!

Lindsay actually understands very well was Nazism was all about: It was about the elimination of all the "undesirables." It is the most violent, evil political ideology imaginable.

We do not know the exact details of the planned mass murder in Halifax yet. All we know is that the target was a shopping mall. This seems quite "random", however, we do not know at this point whether there were more "specific" targets as well. However, we already know a lot of what went on "within the heads" of some of the plotters.

Sarah Palin hates Brian Williams, Sarah Palin hates the media, because they supposedly tell lies about her - But the liar, as always, is Sarah Palin herself!


By Patrick

Sarah Palin is virtually begging us to write a new post about her, so I guess we have no real choice. Sarah, the eternal victim, struck again in her latest facebook post. She asks her readers to "read it through", and yes, why not. Her post isn't exactly Shakespeare, but she obviously has something very important to tell us.

The summary of her facebook post: According to Sarah Palin, NBC-reporter Brian Williams is a liar, the media constantly lies, they all first and foremost love to spead lies about Sarah Palin, and Sarah Palin assures her readers that she definitely is"my son's mother." 

So what exactly does she say?

She says that Brian Williams falsely claimed that Palin tried to ban books from the Wasilla public library, and writes:

My parents just reminded me that right after my acceptance speech at the RNC in 2008, Brian Williams repeated on national television a completely false story that I banned books while I served in office. He did so by reading on air a completely false op-ed by another unethical character who's never clarified nor apologized for including that outrageous censorship lie, among many others. (Thanks, Joe Klein, hope you're keeping it classy.) Those lies – proclaimed on air as if Williams was merely reporting "the news" – were heard by many that night. Lies like that were like a gut punch to my parents that knocked down the foundation of trust they've lived their good lives upon, for they realized, defenselessly, the power of a corrupt press. The media lies rung a bell that can never be “un-rung.” In the minds of millions of Americans, I was tainted as an anti-First Amendment book banning wacko. Brian Williams lied about me in order to affect the way I would be perceived by Americans during the 2008 election. He lies. There is no other way around it. But what’s especially disgusting is the way his corrupt colleagues covered for him. I have never and will never let the shroud of victimization cover me – God's given me way too many undeserved blessings to dishonor His goodness by wasting time crying "victim" – but I'm happy to recall the hundreds of Palin-centric false reports if it helps America understand you must never trust JournoList-types. (Well, not exactly "happy" to do it, but willing – all the whilst throwing up a little bit in my mouth, believing the reason the harshness perpetuates may be for others' edification.)

So, first question: Did Brian Williams in fact say anything about the "book banning story" back in 2008? I couldn't find any confirmation for this on the internet. However, what I did find was that Brian Williams actually gave Sarah Palin the opportunity to make a comment about the "book banning allegations," in an interview he conducted with her on October 24, 2008. So Brian Williams actually gave her the chance to set the record straight, and Sarah herself immediately jumped on this opportunity and created the meme of the "media victim", her favorite role up until this day.

This particular part of this interview was for example back in 2008 included in a news broadcast (from about 2:00):



Fortunately, the full interview with Brian Williams from October 24, 2008 with Sarah Palin has been preserved, and it is well worth watching the full clip:




The mainstream media did actually look in these allegations about the book banning, and for example ABC News back in 2008 published an excellent, balanced and factual report on this issue:




Even this very balanced report by ABC News still did not look good for Sarah Palin at all, and given her long track record of vindictive behavior, it is hardly surprising that she hates the media with a passion. If there is one thing that Sarah Palin has always hated, it is to be investigated.

But there is another, even more important thing about the above mentioned interview by Brian Williams with Sarah Palin from October 24, 2008. First the first and only time in public during the 2008 campaign, a reporter actually pressed Sarah Palin for her medical records. In doing so, Brian Williams committed the cardinal sin. If there is one thing that Sarah Palin did not want anyone to see in 2008 or after, it was her medical records.

In the interview with him, she promised Brian Williams to hand the records over, but nothing happened, up until the day before the election, when Sarah Palin's campaign suddenly released a rather strange medical letter. This letter dealt more with Sarah Palin being Trig's mother, than with anything else concerning her medical history.

It may have come as a surprise for some political observers in 2008 that Sarah Palin was not really in the mood to show her medical records, but at home in Alaska, nobody should have really been surprised. As veteran Alaska journalist Michael Carey already confirmed in a TV-interview in September 2, 2008 during the Republican National Convention, it was an open secret at home in Alaska that Sarah Palin actually did not give birth to her "son" Trig:




Note: Back in 2008, this remarkable interview with Michael Carey was quickly buried in an obscure internet archive, and was not really seen by anyone. We only "rescued" it from there later in 2009, and made it available to a broad audience.

So what else is Sarah Palin concerned about? Oh yes, the lies of the media about her, as she explains again for the 1000x time in her latest facebook post:

Let’s consider the herd mentality these journalists use to empower and cover for each other. It’s precisely the way a corrupt organization works, like a crime syndicate. Remember the “JournoList” scandal where hundreds of prominent members of the media were finally exposed for operating a secret internet chat group to strategize on how they would cover (read: spin) the news of the day to fit their leftwing agenda, regardless of truth? I haven't forgotten. They would stop at nothing. I was aware of their collective unethical character not only because my college degree was earned using the complete opposite journalism tactics of JournoList's, but also because I lived it first hand as they began their relentless BS about my family, my hometown, and my record when I was asked to come on the national scene in 2008.

(...)

There is a serious problem with the liberal media’s herd mentality. It's too late for their mea culpa because they've already lost America’s trust, and that is a dangerous thing. But while they're still on our airwaves, they need to clean up their act as the rest of us turn to new media that will be held accountable. A free press is a cornerstone of our democracy. They have the tools to be our watchdogs, not liars and lapdogs for the powers that be.

The "JournoList"...? I had written about the these emails in details for example here, and the emails show how at the beginning of September 2008, journalists try to come to terms with the discovery that Sarah Palin might not be Trig's biological mother. At the end, however, the journalists decide that this subject should be buried, due to the fear of negative political repercussions.

Yes, Sarah Palin, a free press indeed is the "cornerstone" of any democracy. Oh well, I found something that we and Sarah Palin can agree on! Miracles do sometimes happen.

The only problem with the free press is that they, much to Sarah's displeasure, have the habit to ask pesky questions. One day they want to see Sarah Palin's medical records, the other day they wonder whether Sarah Palin actually is the biological mother of Trig, and the next day they might ask which university degree Sarah Palin has obtained.

Sarah Palin's strange journey through four universities and colleges (not counting the University of Hawaii) in five years in three different states has been well documented and researched, for example by the blog Palingates in 2010. However, nobody could so far conclusively answer the following question: Ẁhich degree did Sarah Palin actually obtain in the end?

This question is very relevant indeed, as Sarah Palin over the years based her constant criticism of the media also on the fact that she herself has profound knowledge on this subject, due to a rather unspecified degree in "journalism" that she claimed to have obtained from the University of Idaho. She does this again in the latest facebook post, and says:


"I was aware of their collective unethical character not only because my college degree was earned using the complete opposite journalism tactics of JournoList's..."


OK, let's see. While nobody has seen a copy of Sarah Palin's college or university degree, there is some other fact that many people are not aware of, and which was revealed by author Geoffrey Dunn in his excellent, very well sourced and researched book "The Lies of Sarah Palin", published in 2011. Dunn's book is required reading for anyone who wants to get to know the "real" Sarah Palin.




Geoffrey Dunn revealed in his book for the first time that a document exists in which Sarah Palin actually explained herself which degree (or degrees...) she supposedly holds - and this is a "notarized" document.

Geoffrey Dunn writes (pages 56 and 57):

Just a few weeks ealier, Palin had submitted an application to the city of Palmer for the position of police dispatcher. It is a fascinating document. Attached to it was a one-page resume, which included some classic Palin schmaltz and self-promotion. Under her "strengths", she declared: "Lifelong resident of Alaska. An innate ability to 'be in the right place at the right time.'"

Palin signed that everything in the document "is true or complete to the best of my knowledge" and that "any intentional misrepresentation or omission" would disqualify her from employment and "may be considered for immediate discharge from employment." The document was notarized on March 12, 1996.

Rather than list her home address, Palin listed a post office box in Wasilla. She also noted that she was "unemployed" at the time of the application and curiously checked the "yes" box when asked: "If you are under 18 years of age, can you provide required proof of your eligibility to work?" She was thirty-two at the time. She checked every box in terms of her availibility - full time, part time, shift work, and temporary.

Under the listing of "Education", she declared that had graduated from Wasilla High in 1982 with a "college prep" course of study. In respect to her "Undergraduate College", she listed solely the University of Idaho, where she indicated that she had completed five years, with a course of study in "Political Science/Journalism" - in that order. On her resume accompanying the application, she says that she completed a minor in "political science" and also added "political science studies" to her list of "specialized training."

And then comes a more curious representation. Under "Graduate Professional" education, she declared "Post-Grad General Studies" for one year. Just where this graduate school education took place she did not indicate, nor has there ever been a record of such postgraduate work made public by Palin, in her memoir or elsewhere.

In a sworn deposition, taken in 1998 for a case related to her performance as mayor of Wasilla, she was asked, "And did you have any further degrees or seek any further education (following your graduation from the University of Idaho)?"

PALIN: Yes, seeking a - hopefully - will be able to some day work further for a master's degree.

So there you have it. Not only did Sarah Palin lie in this notarized document from 1996 about her "postgraduate" studies and distorted her checkered college history. In addition, she also mentioned a "minor" in Political Science which has been absent from all the following "descriptions" about her college history. Furthermore, she did not specify which degree she actually obtained. Finally, as we will show below, Sarah Palin never studied "Journalism."

As a reminder, this Sarah Palin's actual "college history", excluding her "aborted" attempt to attend the University of Hawaii:

Fall 82: Hawaii Pacific University

Spring 83: North Idaho Community College

Fall 83: North Idaho Community College

Spring 84: Out of school.

Fall 84: University of Idaho

Spring 85: University of Idaho

Fall 85: Mat-Su Community College (reportedly part-time)

Spring 86: University of Idaho

Fall 86: University of Idaho

Spring 87: University of Idaho

Therefore the liar is Sarah Palin, and has always been. It is apparent that she had "delusions of grandeur" from an early point onward, and that her own self-perception is at odds with reality.

Sarah Palin entertains the notion that she holds some sort of "important" degree in journalism, and even Wikipedia states:

"Palin returned to the University of Idaho in January 1986, and received her bachelor's degree in communications with an emphasis in journalism in May 1987."

It appears highly doubtful whether this is true. What exactly Sarah Palin received from the University of Idaho has never been seen by anyone, and it is certainly no coincidence that Sarah Palin never showed the original copy of her "degree" from the University of Idaho to anyone, although she talks about her "degree" at every given opportunity.

One thing is obvious, however: Sarah Palin did not receive a degree in "Journalism", nor did she study "Journalism." 

This is already proven beyond doubt through the original yearbook excerpts from the University of Idaho from 1987. In this yearbook, she is listed there under "Communications", and not "Journalism" (click to enlarge)



 The students who actually studied Journalism were listed under "Journalism", and not "Communications":

In a Bloomberg article from September 2008, it is even mentioned that Sarah Palin supposedly received a "Bachelor of Science degree in Journalism." But this assertion definitely seems to be false. In fact, there seems to be great confusion virtually everywhere what exactly Sarah Palin received from the University of Idaho.

In her "autobiography "Going Rogue", Sarah Palin is particularly clever.

There she says, on page 45 (italics by me):

"I planned on a political science minor because I loved studying U.S. history and government and knew poli sci would mesh well with a journalism major."

But she actually never studied journalism, and there is no evidence of a completed "political science minor" as well.

Then, in typical Palin-fashion, her autobiography contains no more information about Palin's degree! Nothing!

It APPEARS to the reader that she got this degree that she "planned", but Palin actually never confirms this.

Some people think Sarah Palin is dumb, but she actually is a master in deception.

 +++

But let's move on. Sarah Palin ends her latest facebook post on a very curious note. In the post, she mentions the "JournoList" emails from September 2008, in which the participants discuss Trig's strange birth story, and which were published by the Daily Caller only in 2010.

The last sentence of her post then reads like this:

Thanks for hearing me out. And, *sigh*, for the umpteenth time – for the benefit of the most unprofessional among the herd who will never clarify nor apologize – yes, I am my son's mother.

- Sarah Palin

Well, many thanks to you, Sarah Palin, for bringing this subject up again. Sarah, you may be your son's "mother" in the sense that you in your head somehow you formally regard him as your "son", or you might very well have adopted him, but you definitely did not give birth to him, as half of Alaska knows, and as virtually every journalist knows by now as well.

The fact that Sarah Palin is still raving mad about the fact that the media had the audacity to question her "pregnancy" with Trig (with very good reasons), and that she brings this subject up at every given opportunity, just as her "degree" in journalism, is reason enough for me to believe that this is actually the issue that stopped her from running for president in 2012. Although I have no "hard proof" for this conclusion, I am convinced that this is the truth, and I am sure that somebody from her inner circle will spill the beans sooner or later, after the SarahPAC-money has finally run out.

In 2010 and 2011, Sarah Palin had almost everything prepared for her run for president: She had published a (ghostwritten) "serious" book about policy called "America by Heart", her "supporters" even created a massive propaganda film called "The Undefeated", which was just one big campaign commercial, and her minions had even started to create a volunteer organization on the ground called "Organize 4 Palin". She continued to grace the covers of various major magazines, for example "Newsweek" with the headline "I Can Win" in July 2011:




Sarah Palin's run for president seemed inevitable.

But then, there was suddenly trouble in paradise.

In April 2011, Professor Brad Scharlott from Northern Kentucky University published a research paper about Sarah Palin's pregnancy with Trig, concluding that Sarah Palin faked her pregnancy with Trig. Even after the publication of this paper, Professor Scharlott remained outspoken and started for example to give interviews.

Through the combined effort of the "Trig Truthers", the issue of Sarah Palin's pregnancy finally got noticed by the mainstream again. While most of the media outlets still flatly denied that there could have been anything wrong with Sarah Palin's pregnancy, and even published phony "debunkers", there were exceptions. The most important exception came from an unexpected source: Henry Blodget, publisher of the mainstream media outlet "Business Insider."

Today, it has almost been forgotten how visibly the issue of Sarah Palin's pregnancy was in the headlines in 2011. The headlines from "Business Insider" from 2011 proved that the subject could not have been ignored any longer, and we are very grateful to Henry Blodget for being brave enough to pursue this subject.

Here are just some of the headlines about the Sarah Palin's pregnancy from "Business Insider":

Henry Blodget was no fool - and Sarah Palin had no answer. She could not produce a birth certificate for Trig. 

Then, on October 5, 2011, the seemingly unthinkable happened, which shocked Sarah Palin's supporters to the core:


Sarah Palin hit a brick-wall, as her lies caught up with her.

UPDATE: One of our readers sent us the copy of the comments at "Conservatives4Palin", from the day when the news broke that Palin won't run for president in 2012. These comments by the mostly deeply shocked Palin-fans have now apparently been removed by the website. They make for fascinating reading, and they are basically a "historical" document.

Now, we continue to witness the decline of a woman who is slowly going insane due to the fact that her secrets and lies brought her down, but who on the other hand has to uphold the impression that she has been the victim of the evil media, in order to save face.

It is not a pretty sight.

Bill Maher had a field day with Sarah Palin during his most recent segment about her, talking about the fall-out from her disastrous Iowa-speech:



If Sarah does not stop giving speeches, there will be more where this is coming from.

But as we already know, she will never stop. In her head she still has this idea that she is great, that she can beat anybody, and that one day, she will win. And if she does not achieve what she is looking for, then there can be only one possible explanation: That she is the biggest media victim that has ever lived. At least this is full time job: Sarah Palin, the eternal victim.

BONUS:

Out friend James Rustad, who writes and performs political songs, today published another particularly sweet song, and I am under the impression that he got some inspiration from our post, which is great! :-)

Therefore we proudly present: James Rustad sings "Palin Don't Preach."

Good news: Matt Lewis finally feels liberated and admits that Sarah Palin is an idiot - Bad news: Matt Lewis now promotes other right-wing idiots, and the Koch Brothers are in charge


By Patrick

Good news on Sunday: After writing his "mea culpa" article at the Daily Caller, the conservative journalist Matt Lewis also admitted on MSNBC that he finally feels free to say in public that Sarah Palin is an idiot, that he is not shackled any more, as Sarah Palin would say it:




"Mea culpa", another latin word, and it means: Man, the Republican party has really been taken for a ride.

So, we have good news on a Sunday, and now we can all hope that the world will be a better place again.

It took Matt Lewis 6 1/2 years to realize what most people realized immediately when they first encountered Sarah Palin, but better late than never.




The above interview is very interesting indeed. Matt Lewis admits that a conservative who criticized Sarah Palin in the past was "in trouble", was in danger to get "beaten up". I also find it sweet that he uses the phrase "Palin fatigue", a phrase which is only too familiar to all of us.

In his article and his interview on MSNBC, Matt Lewis pulls no punches. The love affair is over, and from his remarks, it is more than obvious that Matt has been "disenchanted" for a very long time, probably for years. He also mentions Palin's famous bus tour from 2011, when the media was "chasing her bus caravan around the country", and Matt concludes that Palin now is just interested in "attention" and "fame".

But what is the alternative to Sarah Palin? That's where the harsh reality kicks in. The Republican party is now being ruled by nutjobs, and the Koch Brothers are the paymasters in the background. They seem to be in full control of the GOP these days.




Matt Lewis, naturally, has connections to the Koch groups as well - from an article from 2010, in which he defended the Koch Brothers:

"Disclosure: Matt Lewis has previously spoken for Americans for Prosperity, 
an organization founded by David Koch."

Also, taking into account that the Koch Brothers are notorious for their secrecy, we can probably assume that the above "disclosure" is only scratching the surface, as far as the connections of Matt Lewis to the "Koch empire" is concerned...but please correct us if we are wrong, Matt.

Just today, Matt Lewis published a new article in defense of the Koch Brothers, in the UK Telegraph - and don't even search for a disclaimer:


So, who are the other contenders? Matt Lewis names them (from 1:45 in the clip): Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, Joni Ernst. At the end of the clip, from 4:00, he also mentions that people should "now focus on Scott Walker and Marco Rubio."

One really does not know whether to feel sorry, or whether to be angry. The new line-up of the Republican Party, these "fresh faces", as Matt Lewis calls them, is a joke. If any of these people that he mentioned became President, the happy days would be over.

People like Ted Cruz and Joni Ernst are simply dangerous extremists, who surely would in Europe be members of some right-wing fringe party, far removed from the "mainstream". But even worse: All of the people that Matt Lewis mentions in this interviews are just "puppets" of the Koch Brothers, they are all "Koch Suckers", short and simple.

This is not a  secret. As the San Francisco Chronicle wrote two days ago:



Now, any outside group — with unlimited donations from corporations, labor or wealthy individuals — can make a direct pitch to voters right up until election day. The only caveat with these “independent” expenditures is they cannot work in collaboration with a candidate’s campaign.

But make no mistake: The campaigns are well aware of the potency of this outside help. The Koch brothers’ annual winter retreat at Palm Springs attracted aspiring Republican presidential candidates Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin and Sens. Marco Rubio of Florida, Rand Paul of Kentucky and Ted Cruz of Texas.

So who are these Koch brothers, who stir so much fear and ire among Democrats, and what is their agenda?

Charles, 78, and David, 74, own the Wichita, Kan.-based Koch Industries, the nation’s second-largest privately held company. They are worth an estimated $41 billion each.

Their overriding philosophy is promotion of deregulation, tax cuts and smaller government. Among their specific targets are opposition to climate change — they are heavily invested in energy — and repeal of the Affordable Care Act.

The Los Angeles Daily News wrote also on January 30 regards the power of the Koch Brothers as a threat for both political parties:



The notion that two individuals with no qualification or popular mandate beyond a fat checkbook now are free to make an entire party apparatus essentially irrelevant ought to trouble both Republicans and Democrats. Since the widespread adoption of direct primaries for state and national offices, the parties have become much more democratic institutions, subject to major course corrections at the ballot box. If ultra-rich industrialists and financiers, like the Koch brothers, are now free to buy a pass that circumvents the modern parties, we’re back to the days of Mark Hanna and his ilk, when both parties essentially were run by secretive back-room arbiters subject to the influence of self-seeking special interests.

In short: We can stop worrying about an imbecile like Sarah Palin, although her legacy as the "folksy demagogue" of the Republicans will last for much longer.

But we really have to worry about the Koch Brothers and their band of puppets, aka "Republican presidential candidates."

The intentions of the Koch Brothers have been known for years. They want to buy themselves a president, and they are deadly serious about it.

Already in 2011, secret recordings from the super-secret Koch meetings were published, which revealed that the Koch's form a coalition of ultra-rich donors, in order to buy themselves a president. In 2012, they failed, but in 2016, their funds seem to have no limits.

Watch:



If the Koch Brothers achieve their goal, to buy themselves a president, then you can say good-bye for example to environmental regulations and effective health insurance. The progress of several decades will be reversed.

The Koch Brothers might be billionaires, but their greed seems to have no limits.

Just a few days ago, I watched on German TV an excellent documentary about the early US industrialists, the "Men who built America." I only found out just now that this documentary by the History Channel won two Emmys, well deserved in my opinion. You should all definitely watch it!

The documentary also tells the story about how the industrialist bought their own presidential candidate in 1896, who finally managed to win the election, through excessive donations and bribes to the media: William McKinley.

Luckily, this excerpt from the documentary is available as a free clip on the website of the History Channel:



Then of course it struck me immediately: The Koch Brothers try to replicate the success from 1896. This is more than obvious, and this should worry us all, A LOT.

It is a shame that intelligent people like Matt Lewis are caught in their conservative bubble and cannot see this danger. It took him 6 1/2 years to finally speak out openly against Sarah Palin. Taking his pace into account, it will probably take decades until he finally admits that the Koch Brothers posed a huge threat to Democracy, and to the welfare and well-being of the "common people" in the USA.

It's a tragedy, and we can only all hope that the Democrats learn from 2014 and get their act together in 2016.

Hopefully the "sub-standard" line-up of the GOP will help the Democrats (h/t ScoutandAbout):



Have a nice Sunday, everybody!

UPDATE:

Excellent new article by Politico, very detailed, worth reading (h/t again ScoutandAbout):


The poll is by no means a definitive assessment of the feelings of the hundreds of wealthy business leaders who comprise the vaunted network created by billionaire industrialist brothers Charles and David Koch. But it does provide an early glimpse into the leanings of a pool of megadonors who are being hotly courted by the field of would-be candidates, and whose checkbooks could go a long way toward determining who emerges with the GOP nomination — regardless of whether the Koch network decides to formally back a candidate.

The network has thus far steered clear of endorsing specific candidates in primaries, but it is coming under internal and external pressures to do so. It hopes to raise $889 million from wealthy backers like those who gathered in Rancho Mirage to push its agenda in 2015 and 2016, more than double what it spent in the 2012 election cycle.

In addition to Cruz, Paul and Rubio, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker paid a visit to the Ritz meeting, though he was not present for the forum. The three-day conference was organized by Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce, a nonprofit outfit that oversees the vast political and policy network created by the Koch brothers.

Particularly interesting is this excerpt:

The meeting — part of an ongoing series of twice-a-year “seminars” as they’re called in the Kochs’ orbit — featured a mix of presentations on policy, politics and business. This winter’s session included a discussion moderated by conservative journalist Stephen F. Hayes on principled corporate citizenship and a luncheon discussion featuring MSNBC hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, according to an attendee.

Yes, the famous hosts on the supposedly "left" cable-channel MSNBC now turned into Koch-Suckers as well.

To their credit, Joe and Mika talked openly about this appearance on their show, and they clearly are impressed and actually seem to believe that the Koch Brothers are good people, believe it or not:



You really don't know what is more terrifying: Industrialists who try to buy a Democracy, or a mediocre line-up of candidates, or incredibly naive journalists who apparently lack any political education. In any case: The Koch Brothers need to be defeated, or Americans will be in real trouble.

UPDATE 2:

There are two more clips which I would like to add to this post.

First: In a new segment with Howard Kurtz on Fox News, he and his three female guests now conclude that Sarah Palin was never relevant again after 2008!

The conservatives now basically try to "erase" the memory of the GOP politician Sarah Palin, who was highly regarded within the GOP as long as she was a useful idiot for relentlessly attacking President Obama.

Watch:




Second, Howard Stern did a brilliant new segment about the GOP, who in his opinion has been "hijacked by idiots like Sarah Palin":
