Bannon explains USAID's water projects are cover for funding CIA operations against foreign leaders like Orban, then connects this to how mainstream media flipped from anti-institutional Watergate-era reporters to institutional defenders, ignoring the Trump assassination attempt.

In this bit8 moments
  • USAID has essentially always been a CIA front, with surface-level water projects in India and subsaharan Africa masking its real operations funding media against Orban in Hungary and NGOs on the southern border.
  • Tim asks why the media took very little interest in the person who almost assassinated the president.
  • Comparing All the President's Men era: the 1960s and 70s media were anti-institutional, investigating the FBI and CIA relentlessly.
  • The Democratic party and mainstream media completely flipped and became defenders of the institutions they once attacked.
  • David Ignatius on Morning Joe represents the Washington Post as the CIA's daily talking points—what Tim calls the Langley Bugle.
  • Mainstream liberal media push perpetual war with the Steve Sailor formula: invade the world, invite the world.
  • Middle class and working class kids from an eviscerated economic base are manning patrols in the Hindu Kush, posted to Romania on the Ukraine border, and stationed in Red Sea carrier battle groups.
  • The institutions call this democracy while labeling dissent as fascism, with Steve Bannon cast as the villain for describing the actual system.
