Reader’s Links for Jan. 6, 2026

Posted on by

Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.

This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.

So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.

This is the new Samizdat. We must use it while we can.

For those interested, please check out https://vladtepesblog.substack.com/ as an another avenue of expression. The Substack is a different project in a sense. It is older videos that in the light of subsequent events, look different or of increased importance, Check it out now and again if you like.

  2. For those who think the AI Asian internet phenom Guy has been repeating what they say, they are correct. Technically, this is what he is programmed to do, no? Scour the webscape? What makes you so special that you should you be ignored?

    Tangentially it reminds me of those reports of people’s computers listening to them while they are unaware. You know, a man is talking to his wife in the kitchen about dog food, then when he goes to his computer a bunch of dog food ads come up?

    Wouldn’t it be fun if humans set a little trap for AI just to see. Say, some little-known blog tucked away in a lost corner of the internet teams up with another small blog. The two coordinate with their readers to repeat some ridiculous thing–such as a JP Morgan leaked memo says silver is going to $256.56 because it has pre-ordained gold to go to $6414 which is a silver to gold ratio of 1:25, and this is the result of a secret memo leaked by Bessent?

    All the readers and even lurkers on these sites simply write that silver is going to $256.56 to join this experiment to see if Asian AI Guy absorbs and repeats this fictitious number.

    Then it’s, like, a scene from a sci-fi movie where the humans figure out that the invading aliens are allergic to, say, Rodney Danger field jokes and so they start repeating the jokes to the aliens and all their stupid heads explode. Or something. But humanity is saved at the last second after all seemed lost! Only this time the alien is defeated by the very same thing he was attacking the humans with, which is BULLSHIT!

    BTW according to Rafi Maduro is Jewish.

    • On of the first thing Chavez’ did when he took power, was oppress the Jews and screw over and close Synagogues.

      • If you’re talking to me 99pct it is because the Orthodox Jewish guy in the video, Rafi Farber, is the one who delivers this fun fact. It’s trivia. Nothing more.

    • from a comment:
      A ZIONIST AND ?? ???? ZIONIST WALKED INTO A BAR. THE BARTENDER SAID, “WE DON’T SERVE JEWS.”

  5. Iran’s Supreme Leader Prepared To Flee to Moscow if Regime Loses Control

    Iran’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei has prepared an escape plan to flee Tehran and seek refuge in Moscow if unrest inside the country spirals beyond the regime’s control, according to an intelligence report shared with the Times of London.

    The report says Khamenei, 86, would depart Iran with a small circle of aides and family members—including his son and presumed successor, Mojtaba—if security forces tasked with suppressing protests begin to defect or disobey orders. An intelligence source said the fallback destination would be Russia, where Khamenei is believed to enjoy protection from President Vladimir Putin.

    The contingency plan mirrors the flight of former Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, who escaped to Moscow as his regime collapsed in late 2024. The report says Khamenei’s inner circle has quietly gathered cash and overseas assets to facilitate a rapid exit if necessary.

    The revelations come as nationwide protests—driven by economic hardship and soaring inflation—have spread to major Iranian cities, with demonstrators accusing regime forces, including the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, of using live fire and mass arrests to crush dissent. Intelligence assessments cited by the Times describe Khamenei as increasingly isolated, physically weakened, and “obsessed with survival,” noting his absence from public view amid the unrest.

    • Too bad son-of-shah is such a namby-pamby weakling. Only supported by some in the exile community, in Iran he’s written off as a narcissistic playboy who’s enjoyed a dandy life in exile.

  8. Very interesting interview with Pepe Escobar (Brazilian Independent Journalist) …
    * no one knows exactly what occurred and who was bought
    * No one know who issued the Venezuelan military
    * US Gov/Media PYSYOP attempting to portray Rodriguez as being bought. Won’t work as she is a Chavista
    * All Maduro’s Cuban body guards were killed. No one knows by whom. President of Cuba calls it murder
    * Head of Maduro security was bought. Was executed immediately.
    * Not all Venezuelan military stood down. The US attempted a beach head but had to retreat as a result of Venezuela military defense
    * US demands to the new Rodriguez gov by Trump or there will be a 2nd strike ..
    beginning at 38:03min in the video
    1) Crack down on all drug flow .. problem is most come via Columbia and Mexico not Venezuela. In fact most fentanyl comes via Mexico with Canada in second place and virtually none out of Venezuela.
    2) expel Iranian, Cuban (eg doctors etc.), and “other operatives” hostile to Washington.
    3) halt oil sales to US adversaries … basically anyone who falls out of favour with the US

  11. There is consistent discussion in the independent media regarding Trump’s health. In one of Judging Freedom posts there was a short series of clips from the 2024 election campaign and the most recent Trump statements about Venezuela. It is apparent to anyone who has witnessed Parkinsons or dementia that there is a problem. Trump had to stumble through the presentation using a teleprompter to remain on-script.

    He has done a complete 180 from what he promised since being elected , possibly as the result of two assassination attempts, health issue , or threats to his family. Whatever the reason the “Deep State” is firmly in control and Trump is merely the front man.
