A wide variety of perspectives on America’s domestic upheavals dominated this last week’s leading features, with the top spot captured by former CIA Officer Philip Giraldi’s presentation of the widespread “conspiracy theories” circulating on our national predicament, notably those involving billionaire George Soros being the hidden hand behind our domestic “color revolution” against Donald Trump.

Coming next was the Saker’s discussion of whether the current presidential election actually matters at all, given the ideological convergence between the two parties on so many crucial matters and the obvious incompetence of President Trump.

Close behind was Mike Whitney’s critique of the current Democrat Party, whose deep involvement in the current Black Lives Matter riots and protests suggests it operates more like a CIA-backed Fifth Column involved in a Color Revolution than a legitmate, democratic political force.  Taken together, these three closely-related pieces provoked nearly 800 comments, totaling over 80,000 words.

Holding fourth place was Paul Craig Roberts’s focus on some of the most misleading aspects of the media narrative surrounding George Floyd’s death, notably the lack of evidence that any supposed second autopsy pointing to police culpability ever actually occurred.  Meanwhile, the extremely high levels of illegal drugs found in Floyd’s system strongly suggest that his death was due to a drug overdose and may have little to do with the police actions shown on the video.

Our fifth most popular featured piece was C.J. Hopkins’s presentation of the totalitarian aspects of the Covid-19 lockdowns inflicted upon much of the world, which drew nearly 300 comments totaling over 30,000 words.

Finally, rounding out our most popular pieces was Linh Dinh’s comparison of the widespread tributes and memorials to Genghis Khan throughout Mongolia in sharp contrast to the current American attacks against our own Thomas Jefferson and demands that his honors be removed given his record as a slaveowner.
