ANALYSIS – Is Trump regretting his VP pick? Will Trump tell Vance he is “fired”? When former President Donald Trump selected J.D. Vance as his vice presidential candidate soon after surviving an assassination attempt, some called the choice bold and a doubling down on Trumpism.
I said he could help Trump make his case in 2024 and be the GOP standard bearer in 2028. Still, I also said I would have preferred Trump had picked a woman, and that I had some reservations about Vance as VP, including his youth and inexperience.
ANALYSIS – Could this be true? While Fox News host Jesse Watters admitted he “obviously has no evidence that pop superstar Taylor Swift is part of a government psychological warfare operation, or “psyop,” he ran with the story.
I generally like Watters, but seriously? Can we get wilder, baseless theories from Fox News? Or is there some kernel of truth to this story?
Using an excerpt from a video presentation by a young female civilian defense contractor to a NATO group back in 2019, Watters tries to push a bizarre new conspiracy – singer and entertainer Taylor Swift is potentially a Pentagon and NATO influence asset.
And she was developed to become a huge success to further their nefarious agenda – to combat online “disinformation.” We all know what this administration means by combatting “disinformation.”
“I like her music,” Watters said on “Jesse Watters Primetime” on Tuesday. “She's all right, but I mean, have you ever wondered why or how she blew up like this?”
And she has blown up like nothing else ever, recently becoming a billionaire.
That video was an excerpt from the 2019 International Conference on Cyber Conflict, which was held in Estonia and organized by the NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence (CCD COE). The speaker in the clip is Alicia Marie Bargar, a research engineer at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, who appears to simply mention Swift as an example of the power of influencers with large followings.
So, Swift was really just referred to in passing, as an example, rather than part of a serious pitch. This means that the video evidence that the Pentagon or NATO in any way turned Swift into an asset is really kind of silly.
But beyond the Pentagon-NATO angle, Watters argues, Swift may have been cultivated by Team Biden to promote a Democrat agenda among her tens of millions of U.S. fans.
Globally, Swift has over 600 million online followers to her social media accounts.
I spoke to @vmagazine about why I'll be voting for Joe Biden for president. So apt that it's come out on the night of the VP debate. Gonna be watching and supporting @KamalaHarris by yelling at the tv a lot. And I also have custom cookies 🍪💪😘
Referring to the Biden-Harris ticket back then, Swift said: “Under their leadership, I believe America has a chance to start the healing process it so desperately needs.”
Watters is on firmer ground when he brings in former FBI agent Stuart Kaplan to discuss how Team Biden could use someone like Swift to sway elections.
Kaplan starts by reminding viewers that it is still illegal for any agency of the U.S. government to use psychological operations inside the United States, but he then describes how it could still be done indirectly, and “legally.”
By targeting someone like Swift, political operatives in Biden's “perception optics management team” could encourage someone like Swift, wittingly or unwittingly, to perform a kind of “public service announcement” (PSA) that would indirectly promote the Biden agenda or leftist politics in general.
This would be one way a political machine, like Biden's, could harness the power of a major influencer to win an election.
As Kaplan notes, this type of operation involving a global phenomenon like Swift could “potentially single-handedly swing voters” with the massive number of followers she has.
