This article by Miles Mathis argues that the 14th Amendment’s Clause 4, which states “The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned,” is being misinterpreted to justify raising the debt ceiling. Mathis contends that this clause only validates debt authorized by law (made by Congress) and does not grant the President authority to unilaterally raise the debt ceiling. He suggests this misinterpretation serves the interests of bankers who profit from accumulating debt and interest.
The article then critiques recent polls, specifically the Harris poll released on May 18, as being fabricated by government fronts and front companies, such as HarrisX (founded by Mark Penn through Stagwell Group, which acquired Nielsen) and Burson Cohn and Wolfe (formerly Burson-Marsteller). Mathis links these entities to powerful individuals and organizations like Microsoft, Facebook, AT&T, Ford, McDonald’s, Citibank, Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, Bill Gates, Hillary Clinton, Nancy Jacobsen, No Labels, Michael Bloomberg, and Andrew Tisch. He also points to Charles Black and claims HarrisX is the American counterpart to YouGov in the UK.
Mathis disputes the poll’s findings on biden’s approval rating (stated as 42%), arguing it’s statistically impossible given the breakdown of Democrats, Republicans, and Independent voters, and contrasts it with other polls showing a much lower approval rating, suggesting his own estimate is below 10%. He also finds the reported approval rating for Congress (36%) and favorable ratings for institutions like NATO, FBI, Facebook, CDC, US Military, and Google (75%) to be counterintuitive and indicative of manipulation. He specifically criticizes Google’s search functionality and its alleged connection to Burson.
Finally, Mathis discusses the movie Fight Club, calling it an “obvious CIA movie” and questioning the credibility of writer Chuck Palahniuk’s background and purported connections, suggesting he may be a pseudonym for a wealthy Jewish individual with fabricated familial ties, potentially connected to Walter Polanski ( Jack Palance ). He criticizes the fight scenes as unrealistic and indicative of the creators’ lack of experience with actual combat, suggesting the film appeals to “women and sissy boys.” He also mentions Palahniuk’s alleged membership in the Cacophony Society, an organizer of Burning Man, which Mathis also identifies as a CIA front.
