An American organization is helping China build a totalitarian surveillance state. Google and ibm executives lead the OpenPower Foundation, which is working with the Chinese company Semptian to build a microprocessor that allows the Chinese government to monitor the Internet activity of millions of people. After receiving tips about the company’s role in mass surveillance, an investigative reporter contacted Semptian posing as a potential customer. In response, a Semptian employee revealed that the company had developed a surveillance system named Aegis. The program allows spies to collect people’s e-mail records, phone calls, text messages, cellphone locations and web-browsing histories.
China is using this technology to target critics of President Xi Jinping’s Communist regime, and U.S. companies are helping. “It’s disturbing to see that China has successfully recruited Western companies and researchers to assist them in their information control efforts,” Sen. Mark Warner of the Senate Intelligence Committee told Intercept.
Aegis equipment has been embedded in China’s phone and Internet networks, and sold to authoritarian governments in the Middle East and North Africa. And some of the same technology is being used to track the e-mail records, phone calls, text messages, cellphone locations and web-browsing histories of American citizens.
Authoritarian regimes in East Asia, North Africa and the Middle East are so eager for the latest Google technology because Google was established with research grants from the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency.
“Some of the research that led to Google’s ambitious creation was funded and coordinated by a research group established by the intelligence community to find ways to track individuals and groups online,” reported Quartz Magazine. “The intelligence community hoped that the nation’s leading computer scientists could take nonclassified information and user data, combine it with what would become known as the Internet, and begin to create for-profit, commercial enterprises to suit the needs of both the intelligence community and the public.”
The search algorithms that resulted from this cia–Silicon Valley alliance allow companies like Google to track people’s interests, hobbies and political affiliations as part of a grand targeted advertising campaign. These same algorithms are now being sold to authoritarian regimes around the world, allowing dictators to clamp down on “dissidents” who are reading online material that their governments have deemed subversive. Google executives are even using these same algorithms to influence election results in democratic nations, like the United States.

New Russian Military Doctrine: Prepare for Large-scale War
France Rejects America—and Empowers Germany!
State of the Union (29 minutes)
On the first half of today’s show, I go through some of the highlights from President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address last night. It was well received with CBS News reporting a 76 percent approval rating and 72 percent supporting the president’s ideas for immigration. In the speech, Mr. Trump took a strong stance against socialism in America and brought out horrors of the new abortion laws. He also reminded America about the stirring history of the D-Day invasion.

“The search does not appear to be directly related to Mr. Mueller’s investigation,” the New York Times wrote, “but most likely resulted from information that he had uncovered and gave to prosecutors in New York” (emphasis added throughout).
Remember: Robert Mueller’s investigation was supposed to find out whether or not candidate Donald Trump colluded with Russians in order to win the 2016 presidential election. Mueller’s team, by all accounts, has not uncovered one shred of evidence to substantiate that allegation.
But that has not discouraged special counsel Mueller from aggressively targeting the Trump administration on all fronts!
“Search warrants are a fairly standard, though aggressive, law enforcement tool,” the Associated Press wrote, “and are often sought in cases where authorities are concerned someone may hide or withhold evidence” (April 10).
Mueller’s team of 17 prosecutors (including numerous left-wing activists) is colluding with the U.S. Attorney’s Office in New York. And now they have President Trump’s privileged communications with his long-time attorney.
Where does this end? And how will it impact the United States of America?
Those unfamiliar with the ongoing Trump-Russia collusion saga may shrug their shoulders and treat this like it’s just another scandal. But it’s much more than that, as the president himself acknowledged yesterday. “It’s an attack on our country,” he told reporters. “It’s an attack on what we all stand for.”
America is UNDER ATTACK!
Trump has been quite bold in the face of these allegations. He certainly is not without flaws, but the attacks against him—and his remarkable resilience to them so far—are exposing layer after layer of corruption inside the federal government, much of which has carried over from the Obama administration.
