When it comes to President John F. Kennedy, his interest in UFOs has been a subject of many conspiracy theories, especially given the timing of his inquiries into the matter just before his assassination. Kennedy’s Known Interest in UFOs John F. Kennedy’s interest in UFOs is documented through several sources, most notably through a series of letters he sent in November 1963. One of these letters, addressed to the CIA Director, requested access to UFO files. The previously classified documents were released under the Freedom of Information Act to teacher William Lester as part of a research for his book about JFK. Lester said that JFK’s interest in UFOs could have been fuelled by concerns about relations with the former Soviet Union. One of his concerns was that a lot of these UFOs were being seen over the Soviet Union and he was very concerned that the Soviets might misinterpret these UFOs as U.S. aggression, believing that it was some of our technology,” the Daily Mail quoted Lester as telling AOL News. “I think this is one of the reasons why he wanted to get his hands on this information and get it away from the jurisdiction of NASA so he could say to the Soviets, “Look, that’s not us, we’re not doing it, we’re not being provocative,” he added. However, alien researchers say the latest documents, released to Lester by the CIA, add weight to the suggestion that the president could have been shot to stop him discovering the truth about UFOs. Conspiracy theorists said the documents add interest to a disputed file, nicknamed the ‘burned memo’, which a UFO investigator claims he received in the 90s. The undated memo contains a reference to ‘Lancer’, which was JFK’s Secret Service code name. On the first page, the director of CIA wrote: “As you must know, Lancer has made some inquiries regarding our activities, which we cannot allow.”(ANI) Kennedy’s interest, therefore, was not only scientific but also strategic, aiming to clarify these phenomena to prevent international misunderstandings. In the never-before-seen, top secret memo supposedly written on Nov. 12, 1963, the president ordered the CIA director to organize the agency’s intelligence files relating to UFOs, and to debrief him on all “unknowns” by the following February. Ten days later, Kennedy was assassinated. This document, called the “burned memo,” was passed to the fringe media in 1999 by an anonymous source claiming to be a former CIA operative. The alleged leaker said he worked for the CIA between 1960 and 1974 and pulled the memo — which experts have never verified as authentic — from a fire when the agency was burning some of its most sensitive files. The memo to the CIA, suggests that Kennedy was probing deeper into what the CIA knew about UFOs, possibly aiming to bring this information into the public domain or at least to understand its implications for national security. The timing of this request, just ten days before his assassination, has led many to speculate on the motives behind his death, with some theorists suggesting that his inquiries into UFOs might have been a factor. Public and Official Perception Publicly, Kennedy’s administration, like those before and after, maintained a stance of skepticism towards UFOs. However, internally, there was an acknowledgment of the phenomenon, if only to manage public perception and national security concerns. Kennedy’s interest might have been influenced by his broader vision for space exploration, where understanding unidentified phenomena could play a role in space policy. Despite his inquiries, there’s no conclusive evidence that Kennedy was privy to any definitive proof of extraterrestrial life or advanced technology beyond what was publicly known or speculated at the time. The government’s handling of UFO information has always been opaque, with layers of secrecy that might not have been fully accessible even to the President. Government projects like Project Blue Book, which officially concluded that UFOs were not a threat to national security, might have been just the tip of the iceberg. Kennedy, despite his position, might have encountered the same bureaucratic hurdles and compartmentalization that often keep even high officials out of the loop on certain matters. Kennedy’s knowledge might have been limited to what was considered significant for national security or diplomatic relations. The full scope of UFO sightings, investigations, and potential cover-ups could have been beyond his reach or interest, especially if these were deemed unrelated to his immediate concerns or if they were deeply classified. Conspiracy theorists argue that his death was orchestrated to prevent him from revealing the truth about UFOs. What he knew about UFOs might have been limited to strategic concerns rather than the full spectrum of what might be occurring in the skies. Kennedy’s inquiries, while significant, were likely just one part of his administration’s broader approach to understanding and managing the unknown, both in space and on Earth. The post What John F.

This week, Mike Benz, executive director of the Foundation for Freedom Online, took advantage of a new meme to make an old point that is gaining new importance: “You can’t make us China if we China ourselves first.” The idea, which goes back at least to New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman’s infamous 2010 China-for-a-day daydream, is simple enough: The Chinese seem to have figured out how to harmonize technology with unity, resulting in massive growth for the people and massive privilege for elites; can’t we take a cue from Beijing and do that too? The solution there is to overthrow America with a new, digital-age America, one that borgs up the country and its people just as much as China and the Chinese, but in our own unique way. The joke is that, of course, Friedman didn’t really want to become China; he wanted to have his American cake and eat it too, and so does just about everyone else who looks over the sea with envy at China’s apparent mastery of political reorganization on digital-age terms. Because the quickest way to become China is to let China remake us in its image, and well ... The wishcast takes on a different tenor: If only our elites could “pull a China” here, all on their own! But here, the obstacles morph too. It’s sinking in that we’re not very good at becoming China, and for this, our elites are happy to blame the American people, who are proving harder to pacify than expected, and time is running out. There’s another obstacle: China is trying to unseat the U.S. as the dominant, definitive global power. This suggests the things our elites envy about China can only be achieved by overthrowing America’s global dominance, which, in turn, threatens American elites. For us in the West, there’s really only one path to that kind of collectivist unity. Many insist that’s communism, but communism — at least as we’ve known it — is just a halfway step. Communism, as we’ve known it, gained power and adherents by positioning itself against not just Christianity but all religions. That proved to be reasonably effective for a time — for about as long as radio and television dominated our technologically mediated environment. That environment made human imagination the most powerful force in the world — a world where, of course, the soft atheist communist song “Imagine” became the most popular, echoing John Lennon’s earlier contention that “Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue about that; I'm right and I'll be proved right. We're more popular than Jesus now. I don't know which will go first — rock 'n' roll or Christianity. Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary." America’s imagineering elite built digital technology to consummate post-religious America’s capitalist-powered communism around the world. Yet alarmingly, that project failed, and China’s post-religious capitalist-powered communist project started to really take off. This is because digital collectivism vibes very well with the religious frameworks established at the origin of the Chinese civilization-state. After the end of the Cold War, Chinese elites began putting effort into demonstrating to themselves and their people that, basically, Western communism suffered from certain internal problems that China didn’t have to deal with because of its deep civilizational anthropology and cosmology. America certainly does not share this deep origin, to say the least. The spiritual origins of American civilization are Protestant, and since the beginning, the anarchistic tendencies of the Southern colonists and the theocratic tendencies of the Northern colonists have created a complex and conflicted identity that only leaves one absolute path toward authentic “native” collectivism at the national scale: that of the established church. Of course, that’s squarely at odds with our Constitution. So the real challenge faced by American elites trying to beat China at its own game of usurping American global dominance in the digital age is to answer the riddle, “When is a church not a church?” It is deeply sensed, if rarely ever articulated, that the answer to this question will unlock the ultimate cheat code — imposing a theocracy on Americans that will allow the elite to digitally collectivize quickly and powerfully enough to replace the old America’s global dominance with that of the new, boxing out China before it can win the world. And for the elite, this approach had better work, because no other alternative seems to exist. It’s an all-or-nothing gamble. And so, in the struggle among different elite factions for control over deciding which theocracy is established through the church that is not a church, two candidates for institutionalized worship, drawn from the deep religious substrate of the West, have swiftly risen to the top of the pack. The first is Justice, the god of the woke, a queered version of Zeus who’s all about bringing infinitely prideful yet interoperable identities under one perfect arbiter to rule them all. The second is Enlightenment, the god of tech, which increasingly worships the convergence of all interoperable things into a single, infinitely illuminating intellect. You can see that interoperability and infinity dominate both these creeds, and as we all see, most techies are willing to worship the god of Justice so long as the god of Enlightenment (and its priests) has pride of place, and most wokies are willing to worship the god of Enlightenment so long as the god of Justice (and its priests) has pride of place. After all, true absolute justice on Earth requires a superhuman intelligence capable of constantly computing, adjudicating, and ruling on all micro-injustices. Only the merger of the human and the machine into a cyborg collective allows this. The outlines of a church unlike any other begin to emerge. Woke and tech harmoniously combine into one big cyborg theocracy ... one big enough even to ingest China itself. That’s the plan! And that’s why, without being able to turn to a church that is a church yet does not establish a theocracy, Americans trying to rescue their country and their humanity will find themselves falling back darkly on only what weapons they manage to cling to.

'NOTHING Is Free': Greg Gutfeld Takes a Hammer (and Sickle) to Kamala Harris' Economic Insanity

Macy’s CEO Tony Spring announced the imminent closure of a third of their stores by 2027 to invest in the remainder and set up new Bluemercury and Bloomingdale stores across the United States. According to Tony, the shutdown is not much of a loss as the affected locations account for less than 10% of sales. Like Sears, Lord & Taylor, and JCPenney, Macy’s has also left several malls in the last decade, as new projects like restaurants, amusement parks, and entertainment facilities take over the spaces left behind. Naveen Jaggi, the president of retail advisory services at JLL, noted that most retailers are not keen on large spaces, hence why they would hardly replace mall Macy’s. What to expect after this impending Macy’s mass closure Wikimedia Commons According to senior director Chris Wimmer of Fitch Ratings, Macy’s foreclosure will lead other low-quality malls to follow suit and give healthier ones a chance to be established in neighborhoods. He added that demographically beneficial real estate such as medical buildings and retirement communities will replace needless retail stores. RELATED: Macy’s Is Closing 150 Stores By 2026, Already Fired 2,000 Employees Anand Kumar, who is an associate director of research for Coresight, agrees with Chris as he expects more retailers to take a cue from Macy’s. He explained that the US does not need more physical stores because customers shop more online. He urged malls to take in more co-working spaces, nail salons, and restaurants instead to maintain their visit rates. Wikimedia Commons Diverse activities for mallgoers Rather than the same old kind of stores filling malls, visitors can expect a better range of offerings in the coming years, such as rock climbing areas, dining spaces, offices, skating rinks, warehouses, and other more unique spaces. This is already happening, as Stonestown Galleria’s Macy’s is now a Whole Foods, sporting goods store, and healthcare facility. Wikimedia Commons The one at Tysons Galleria in Washington, D.C. now contains a bowling alley, a movie theater, a showroom for Lucid Motors’ electric vehicles, and home furnishing stores like Crate & Barrel. Adam Tritt of Brookfield Properties agrees that mall visits will become more frequent as residents have new entertainment to look forward to.
