Journalist Max Blumenthal, editor of The Grayzone, offered a detailed analysis of Iran's current crisis in a recent interview on the Scott Horton Show (@scotthortonshow). He challenged the mainstream narrative of the protests, stating they have been "militarised" and directed by foreign intelligence services as part of a "regime change operation." Blumenthal cited a Mossad social media post in Farsi and similar language from former CIA Director Mike Pompeo as evidence of this covert campaign. He described scenes of severe violence—including attacks on security forces, mosques, and infrastructure—framing the events as organised "riots" rather than peaceful demonstrations.

The Jimmy Dore Show (On Rumble) discusses what it describes as a new US system for controlling Venezuela’s oil revenues. Citing commentary by Shanaka Anslem Perera, the programme outlines a sequence of events in which, following military action, the US announced it would run Venezuela’s oil sector and issued an executive order shielding oil revenues from all creditor claims.

The discussion states that the US government directly marketed and completed a $500m sale of Venezuelan oil. It says the proceeds were deposited in an account in Qatar, a neutral third-country jurisdiction, rather than in US or Venezuelan banks. According to the ...

A commentary video published by voidzilla (@coffeezillaextras) highlights an extraordinary public statement attributed to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, who says the Justice Department has served the Federal Reserve with grand jury subpoenas and that he faces a potential criminal indictment threat linked to his Senate Banking Committee testimony.

In the video, Powell frames the threat as a test of ...

A commentary video by YouTuber Cyrus Janssen (“Why Trump’s Venezuela War is a Gift to China”) argues that tougher US actions in Venezuela could unintentionally strengthen China—not by giving Beijing more Venezuelan oil, but by reshaping global perceptions and incentives. Janssen cites remarks he attributes to former US ambassador Michael McFaul, suggesting that if Washington is seen as acting outside international norms, more countries may lean toward China as a comparatively “rules-abiding” power (source: YouTube – Cyrus Janssen, “Why Trump’s Venezuela War is a Gift to China”).

The video also references a warning attributed to Senator Chris Murphy following a ...

In a video commentary titled “US Media Admits CIA Attacking Russia During ‘Peace’ Talks,” journalist Brian Berletic argues that US policy toward the Russia–Ukraine war combines public diplomacy with covert escalation. He says US intelligence, including the CIA and the US military, has enabled or shaped Ukrainian drone operations that target Russian oil refineries and energy shipments, and he presents this as consistent with what he describes as admissions in US media reporting.

Berletic frames the alleged targeting of Russian energy infrastructure as strategic rather than purely battlefield-driven. In his telling, degrading Russian energy output is meant to weaken Russia’s ...
