"You are the father of the revolutions on this continent, you are our father."

"Since
Hugo Chavez was leading his country, boldly, in a manner that
distinguished his leadership from the lockstep, pro-American arse
licking that typifies most of the world’s statesmen at this
juncture in time, one might ask if the power elite specifically
bogarded the cure from Hugo Chavez."
– Janet Phelan, excerpt from Hugo Chavez, World Leaders and Cancer Deaths—Indications that the Cure Exists (For a Chosen Few)
Journalist Janet Phelan has passed away. I'm not sure exactly when this happened, I only read that it was sometime in January of this year.
I had conducted a search for her name, simply because I noticed that my reports exposing her as a leftist agitator, a supporter of communist despots and adversary of Barbara Hartwell (a hard-line Law-and-Order conservative) were getting many more views than usual. It occurred to me that she might have died, and that turned out to be correct.
I was saddened to hear of Janet's death, even considering that she was a political adversary who spent her entire career as a journalist and activist advocating for a collectivist New World Order agenda (including supporting the evil United Nations, and attending their meetings), and who did considerable unwarranted damage to my name and reputation, personally and professionally. But, ill-advised as it may have been, I once considered her a friend. I pray for her soul to rest in peace, that is all I can do.
But in service to the truth, and in the pursuit of justice, it is always important to me to set the record straight, providing the facts and evidence for the public record. Because, there are those supporters of Janet Phelan who will now be promoting her as a
heroic figure (which she was not) and denigrating her adversaries (including Barbara Hartwell) in order to promulgate their own agenda, the establishment of “progressive” (read Marxist) values, where the rights of the individual are negated in service to the collective.
Just to name two of her most vocal supporters, devil-worshiper Howard Nemaizer and former NSA Karen Stewart, in collusion with Janet Phelan, have both promoted outrageous defamatory lies against Barbara Hartwell, including accusing me of being CIA.
[FACT: I left CIA operations in 1994, never to return. But false accusers abound. Having no legitimate claims against me, these characters are all the same: they revert to the old standby: She's CIA! Once CIA, always CIA!]
Due to the public stand I have taken, uncompromising in defense of the God-given unalienable rights of the individual, as protected under the Constitution, I have many enemies, some of whom are former friends and/or professional associates. And all of whom I ended my association with, on principle, because I could not, in good conscience, support, promote or endorse their actions, their publicly stated political views and/or their unwarranted interference in my personal/professional business.
In most cases, it was also because they showed no respect whatsoever for my privacy or personal boundaries, even after I made it clear that I had zero tolerance for their meddling and gossip. Nosy, pushy, and aggressive as hell, they revealed themselves to be busybodies and collectivists, whose beliefs and attitudes were absolutely antithetical to all that I hold dear, all that I hold sacred, all that I stand for, all that I have shed blood, sweat and tears defending: God-given unalienable Rights and Individual Liberty.
Anyone who takes the time to do a search on my professional track record, based on my writings on the Internet, my radio broadcasts (terrestrial and otherwise) would be able to establish that I have been entirely consistent over a period of more than 30 years, as a hard-line, Law-and-Order conservative, a defender of Liberty and Individual God-given Rights, as well as a devout Christian, a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. That is where I stand, as I always have done, and always will.
I should make it clear up front that never did I hold malice in my heart against Janet Phelan. But I did have righteous outrage against her anti-Liberty politics and her unjust defamation against my good name, which began in 2012, when I broke off my association with her, for cause.
Janet had first contacted me in 2005, after reading my reports exposing a government-sponsored stooge, a stalker named Timothy Patrick White aka Tim White. The late Tim White was a career criminal, a predicate felon who became a fed snitch in exchange for a reduction of time in his prison sentence. This is very typical for corrupt feds, to issue a get-out-of-jail-free card so they can exploit criminals for their own ends. White was tasked with harassing and threatening targets, persons the government wanted neutralized.
White, a lackey of the FBI (specifically the JTTF, Denver, of agents Mark Hostlaw and “retired” FBI Chief Ted Gunderson) was sicced on me in 2001. After conducting my own investigation (which included traveling to Denver in 2002 to interview witnesses), I exposed him in a series of reports. I produced documented evidence, including police reports, testimony of those he had targeted for harassment, restraining orders, and rap sheets.
Tim White harassed, stalked, threatened, and promoted outrageous defamatory lies against Barbara Hartwell for nearly 2 decades, until his death in March, 2019.
I'm not sure why White targeted Janet Phelan. Most targets of these corrupt feds were former intelligence, military, law enforcement, whistleblowers, American patriots and conservative journalists –those exposing and standing up against government corruption and tyranny.
To make it very clear, Janet Phelan was not any kind of whistleblower, she was not a patriot, not a defender of the Constitution (quite the contrary, though she was a hypocrite and opportunist on that score). Her entire career had been her advocacy for a “progressive”, secular humanist agenda and her support for the worst of the worst leftist politicians and socialist dictators, such as Hugo Chavez (barf bag alert!).
But she was very active on the Internet, and especially as a radio broadcaster and guest on various programs, some of which were in “conservative” and “patriot” circles.
I do know that the first contact between Tim White and Janet Phelan was not adversarial. From what I observed, she lacked discernment and would associate with just about anyone who would give her publicity.
It was after Janet cut off contact with White that she contacted me, having read my reports exposing White as a fed snitch.
I subsequently developed a friendship with Janet, based on what I thought were common interests. I was wrong. I later realized that despite the fact that she was vocal in standing up against Jew-haters (she was Jewish), she was basically a dyed-in-the-wool left-wing agitator. Her political views were so opposed to mine, in every way, that never the twain shall meet. Irreconcilable differences to continue any professional association, or friendship.
But as is true with every leftist I have ever known, they are all busybodies who just cannot respect the personal boundaries of others. They are gate-crashers with zero respect for the rights of the individual.
If it is one thing I have learned, over a decades-long career, both in CIA operations (1969-1994), as an advocacy journalist, and as a combatant in the Cold War, it is this: The Left (Socialism, Communism, National Socialism of Nazis -yes, that is Leftist too) destroys everything it touches. These systems are all totalitarian, anti-Christian, anti-Liberty.
All that the totalitarian Left promotes, supports and endorses is evil, oppressive, ugly as sin. Just take a look at Soviet era buildings, modern “artwork” (which is anything BUT art). The Left is anti-Christ, anti-Liberty, anti-American. I stand against these evil totalitarians, and will fight to the death against them.
And this, all this...this was what Janet Phelan spent her entire career promoting. And like most of her fellow travelers, she was a True Believer, actually thinking she was “making the world a better place”.
RAMOLA DHARMARAJ PROMOTES JANET PHELAN
Here, one of her supporters, another leftist, Ramola Dharmaraj (who also accuses Barbara Hartwell of being CIA), promotes Janet Phelan.
Janet Phelan wrote:
"It is one of my core beliefs that we are put on this earth to try to make it a better place, a place where life and art and love and beauty and faith can flourish. I am facing challenges now in simply staying alive and it is with some reluctance that I find I must now try to bring more attention to myself. I frankly abhor doing so. But given the challenges that are now facing my continued existence, I am asking those reading this to be please be aware that yet another journalist is under significant attack and those who have pledged to protect human rights in the Americas won’t do a damn thing about it."
No, Janet Phelan. You've got it all wrong. Human rights are INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS. NOT collective rights, issued by some godless entity like the United Nations.
Human Rights are God-given, thus unalienable.
If you truly want to “make the world a better place”, as you claim, then it has to start, first and foremost, with RESPECTING the personal boundaries and God-given rights of others.
A PERSONAL MEMOIR IN DEFENSE OF INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS
EXCERPT (2014):
I'm aware that this next section may shock some of my regular readers. Janet Phelan and I had a longstanding professional association and personal friendship (2005-2012), so it pains me to write this, but as I have reflected on developing events over the past few years, I find it necessary to address this issue openly and definitively, primarily because she was for such a long time a “known associate” of Barbara Hartwell.
As always, in all things, it is important to me to set the public record straight, once and for all. And unfortunately, I have good reason to believe that misunderstandings have arisen among some of those who are mutual acquaintance of mine and Janet Phelan's, especially those in the media. I realize I may lose friends over this, but the way I see it, those who are true friends will remain friends; others will fall by the wayside, which is to be expected –I long ago became accustomed to the loss of friendships for standing up for my principles.
I believe it is relevant to say that Janet Phelan, at least during the time I've known her, has been a far more prolific contributor of writings on the Internet than I, and no doubt a more “popular” one. Her work has been more widely published and distributed via various venues such as discussion groups, social media, and as a regular columnist on a number of high-traffic, commercial publications, and also very active on the Internet radio circuit. As I've heard her remark in one of her recent broadcasts [with Howard Nema aka Nemaizer], she has gathered a large “following”.
My work, on the other hand, given that I don't seek publicity, don't engage in self-promotion, don't join groups, has been mainly limited to my own website, and a few highly selective others. I also believe that my writings appeal to a much smaller audience, given my “straight and narrow”, brutally blunt (considered offensive by many, I've been told), hard-line focus.
And then, there is the fact that as a government whistleblower, I have been targeted for a massive, organized, long-running libel/slander campaign, with the objective of discrediting my work, while assassinating my character and defaming my good name. (If you don't believe this, just put my name into any search engine and see what comes up. Or, see PART ONE of this report for just a small sample of the defamatory material.)
Most importantly, I have reached the point where, being a hard-core, uncompromising defender of God-given, unalienable INDIVIDUAL rights and liberties, a position I have steadfastly held for decades, I cannot afford to be silent about the hypocrisy of those persons who claim to be "protectors” or “defenders” of human rights; who complain bitterly about the loss of their own "constitutional rights", while doing nothing at all to defend those rights. Who claim to be adhering to "moral absolutes", while actually practicing moral relativism, social engineering and situational ethics. Who are operating on a double standard for self-serving, opportunistic goals, especially involving 'agenda politics', and specifically advocating left-wing agendas which are designed to destroy national sovereignty and "regulate" God-given unalienable rights (which can't be done!), through such godless communist institutions as the United Nations.
Where, pray tell, in the U.S. Constitution, does it say that any State of the Union, or any citizen of the several States, must submit to the authority or jurisdiction of the U.N.? Nowhere! The U.N. has NO jurisdiction, NO authority in these united States. Furthermore, no U.N. “treaties” have any lawful authority if they are countermanded, or their terms prohibited, by what is written in the Constitution.
This Cursed Beast, this Spawn of Satan, the U.N., didn't even exist in 1787, and these usurpers have no business whatsoever encroaching as much as a micro-millimeter into this Constitutional Republic, meddling in the affairs of this sovereign nation.
This Republic was founded as a "government of the people, by the people and for the people", strictly by the “consent of the governed." NOT to be ruled by global elitists, secret societies, international banking cartels, multi-national corporations, or by invasion of foreign busybodies into the body politic, with their diabolical scheme of locking down their New World Order, where all power is centralized in a One World government.
All genuine patriots who defend the Constitution, and the God-given unalienable rights protected therein, have been shouting at the top of their lungs for well over half a century, to get the U.S. the hell OUT of this bastion of vile communism, New Age secular humanism, and globalist totalitarianism aka the New World Order. (And I give the John Birch Society credit where it is due, for leading the charge, these many years.)
For those who are unaware of the truly sinister nature of the United Nations, its alliances with Luciferian/New Age cults (such as Lucis Trust, formerly “Lucifer” Trust), its flagrant anti-Christian doctrines and practices, its total disrespect for INDIVIDUAL rights and PRIVATE property (I could go on...and on....), I can only say BEWARE.
While many will continue to buy into the pervasive propaganda that the U.N. is benign and promotes peace, cooperation and justice, those who want the truth about the U.N. may easily find it by taking the time to do your own research. (There is no substitute!) And for those uninterested in the truth, you will, for declining to take personal responsibility in seeking truth, and failure to stand in defense of truth, get exactly what you asked for: slavery under globalist totalitarianism.
What here, is the relevance of the U.N.? Janet Phelan regularly has truck with the U.N., including attending and participating in their conventions, and supporting and advocating their policies and "treaties". She writes articles promoting the U.N., in which she attempts, using obviously deceptive left-wing rhetoric, to persuade the readers into agreement with their UN-American agenda. (Pun intended.)
But at the same time, she can be heard loudly complaining of the U.S. government's violations of “constitutional rights” and “unconstitutional” policies. Like many others of this ilk, she seems to think she can have it both ways. She can't have it both ways. She can't cherry pick the Constitution to support her leftist agenda, but seems hell-bent on doing exactly that. More on this later in this report...
In 2012 I broke off my association with Janet Phelan (to be clear, the decision was mutual), due to "irreconcilable differences". Speaking strictly for myself, this decision on my part followed a pattern of behavior by Janet Phelan, which by my observations and experience, had become increasingly presumptuous, manipulative, pushy and intrusive; and which displayed a profound disrespect of my privacy and personal boundaries; and which ultimately pushed me to the limits of what I was able and willing to tolerate from a person who called herself my friend.
But more than that, she insulted my honor, by accusing me of "misreporting" events (I did no such thing); of trying to "rationalize" in connection with events (I did no such thing); of "attacking" her in a public venue (I did no such thing), and most of all, by calling me a "faithless friend". That is a matter of subjective personal judgment, one with which I vehemently disagree.
I must say, I will not allow these untruths to stand, but will speak up, for the public record, in defense of my honor, and of all that I stand for, all that I have worked for, fought for and sacrificed for, these many years. After all I have lost (between 2010 and 2013, in an unprecedented series of disasters, nearly all the personal property I owned, including my house), after all the massive damages inflicted on me by the government and their minions, in my battles for Liberty and Justice --the one thing I have left intact is my honor. And I will not stand by silently when someone (anyone) attempts to sully my honor with gratuitous and unwarranted allegations and insults which comprise a gross misrepresentation of my character –especially if that person's name has had a longstanding connection to mine in media, as a “known associate”.
As any person of spiritual/intellectual discernment should be able to perceive (whatever you may make of it), this is not solely a "personal" issue – far from it – but rather a matter of principle, and an issue of widely divergent and seriously conflicting beliefs and standards, and of what it has become clear are diametrically opposed political ideologies and moral imperatives.
Of which those of Barbara Hartwell stand uncompromisingly for God-given unalienable INDIVIDUAL rights and liberties, as protected under the Constitution.
And of which those of Janet Phelan would subvert those individual rights and liberties, and further, dismiss the most fundamental principles of Liberty on which this nation was founded, in service to the New World Order/U.N. agenda of collectivism, a consensus-based 'herd' mentality, and the so-called "common good" (Nanny State) of globalist totalitarianism.
To sum it up, my level of "irreconcilable differences" with Janet Phelan's political ideology? Agitators for this left-wing agenda will conquer this nation, and trample MY rights, over my dead body. And as long as I have breath in my body, I will fight for those rights, against any and all who would attempt to mitigate or compromise them. Liberty or Death. Don't Tread on Me.
In short, Janet Phelan, I have come to believe after much reflection on events, circumstances, and the interactions I have participated in and/or observed over a period of years, is an agitator for globalist government. That is my considered professional opinion, for the public record.
LEFTIST PROPAGANDA & THE COMPROMISES OF COWARDS
This is taken from my archives. It uses Janet Phelan and her friend, Howard Nemaizer, as examples of the foolishness and hypocrisy of embracing the false “protection” of rights by Leftism.
NOTE: This brief commentary is a segment from an old report, but I find that it is a perfect example of the reason this country has fallen to the evils of Progressivism and “wokeism” (read Marxism):
Too many people are wimpy, spineless hypocrites and compromisers. They claim to be defenders of Liberty and human rights, but their actions tell another story.
The two individuals exposed here are Janet Phelan and Howard Nemaizer, and the readers may decide for themselves whether they have any credibility, and are deserving of any support, or if they have earned the contempt of those Liberty-loving patriots, hard-liners who will actually fight to the death for what we believe, in service to the truth, and to leave a legacy of freedom to our grandchildren.
Here is an irrefutable FACT:
No person who endorses, defends, supports, advocates for, or promotes the United Nations, in any way, shape, or form, can ever be considered as a patriot, a defender of Liberty, the US Constitution, or human rights.
This applies especially to anyone who would appeal to the UN to intercede for any reason, when in fact the UN has no jurisdiction over these united States, and cannot lawfully countermand the US Constitution.
Anyone who does not know this, or who makes excuses (for any reason) is either woefully ignorant of the law, or hopes to bypass the law for an unscrupulous agenda.
In any case, they lack the moral courage to act on the convictions to which they lay claim, and are the enemies of those who will fight to the death for Liberty, with no compromises. They serve only the cause of slavery and totalitarianism, rather than being advocates of God-given, unalienable human rights, as protected under the Constitution.
They are certainly my enemies, and as always, I will fight everything they stand for, and will continue to expose them for their unscrupulous, self-serving, hypocritical behavior.
Shame on them for their cowardice and hypocrisy, and may God's swift and terrible justice be visited upon them.

EXCERPT FROM REPORT (2017)
Globalism by Deception & Hypocrisy: Left Wing Agitators Destroy America
http://barbarahartwellvscia.blogspot.com/2017/10/globalism-by-deception-hypocrisy-left.html
It's time to wrap up this segment. Just one quick anecdote regarding a discussion I had with Howard Nemaizer (2013), regarding the nature of the political ideology espoused by Janet Phelan. As previously stated, I did not bring up Janet Phelan's name to Howard after I had broken off my association with her. I had said what I considered necessary, and had no reason to revisit the issue.
But one day I was having a discussion with Howard in which I outlined my strict dedication to the principles of Liberty and God-given unalienable individual rights. Howard's idea was that “everyone sees things in a different way”. True, but if the way they “see” things means that they will violate the unalienable rights of others, fail to respect the privacy, the personal boundaries of others, or try to force their viewpoints on others, then no true defender of Liberty will tolerate such behavior. They may “see” it as they will, but that right to “see” morphs into wrongdoing when they fail to respect the rights of others, or take action to trample the rights of others.
Howard brought up Janet Phelan, in an apparent attempt to persuade me of the value of what she had to offer in terms of defending human rights and related issues. My answer was as follows: You cannot claim to be a “defender” or “protector” of “rights” if you fail to acknowledge the ultimate supremacy of the God-given unalienable rights of the INDIVIDUAL.
Janet Phelan, by her own admission, and by her many statements advocating for the U.N. and “left-wing politics” (her own words) is in favor of compromising, modifying, adulterating the rights of the individual in service to the dictates of a collective.
And finally, in terms of a clear overview, I explained my position by asking Howard to consider this scenario:
One person (for example, in this case, Janet Phelan) decides that she will dedicate much time and effort in attempts to influence people (via her writings, radio appearances, etc.) to believe that left-wing ideology is not only acceptable, but preferable; that it has merit in that it contains solutions to various problems; will result in improving the lives of the citizens of a country, will “affirm our basic humanity”, and so on and so forth...
As a result of her efforts, some of the audience she is addressing (those who lack discernment and don't think for themselves) are actually influenced to join in and support what she is promoting. And remember, according to Janet, she already has a “large following”. (This statement was in fact made on Howard Nema's show.) Her work is posted on numerous large commercial sites on the Internet, spanning an entire spectrum from those who profess “conservatism” to those who are openly leftist, New Age, secular humanist.
(And remember, Janet Phelan is only one person. How many others are there, embracing and promoting the same ideology?)
Over time, more and more people jump on the Leftist Bandwagon, and soon they themselves are spouting the same ideology, and become agitators, not only by their words, but now by their actions. (For example, they get sucked in by the rhetoric, and join the 'Occupy' movement.)
Soon, as the mob of leftists gains momentum, U.N. Treaties gain signatories. Legislation that defies the Constitution is passed. A person's right to keep and bear arms is “signed away” by meddlers from the U.N. Now, the unconstitutional legislation becomes “law”.
What's next? The U.N. decides that they have the right to invade our sovereign republic with impunity, for the “common good”, to “protect human rights”, to “keep the peace”. (After all, the welcome mat has been rolled out, is ready and waiting for such an invasion.)
Meanwhile, the criminals run rampant, because criminals don't respect the law, nor anyone's unalienable rights (never have, never will) and they still have guns and ammo, which they will use in assaults against the citizenry. Robbery, rape, murder, mayhem, all at the point of THEIR guns.
But where are YOUR guns and ammo? Nowhere to be found, they've been confiscated by lawless men (or women) with badges and guns (operating under the color of law), who are “just following orders”, orders given by tyrants who themselves are “following orders”, the directives of even bigger tyrants at the top of the global food chain.
This is how totalitarianism is achieved, by recruiting one individual at a time, then groups of individuals, using propaganda (especially manipulation by engendering guilt: It's for the children, for the disenfranchised; for the elderly; for the disabled, etc. etc.), pressure tactics, and finally, threats.
At long last, a paramilitary team is standing on your doorstep, brandishing their weaponry, pointing guns in your face, in your wife's/husband's face, while your children or grandchildren huddle in fear in the background.
You will do what we say, or we will lock you up, or kill you.
How then, can you possibly stop them?
Hitler did it, Stalin did it, Chairman Mao did it...and on and on it goes....
The objectives of each of these tyrants (and many others throughout the course of history) were the same: TO STRIP YOU OF YOUR GOD-GIVEN, UNALIENABLE RIGHTS & LIBERTIES, TO CONTROL EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR LIFE & DESTINY. And they gained this power because the people, AS INDIVIDUALS, failed to stand up and stop them.
Totalitarianism, courtesy of the New World Order.
Don't be fooled: The promotion and support of even one leftist opens the door, throws out the welcome mat, for more leftists, and their godforsaken globalist totalitarianism. And who is to be held accountable for all this?
Every single person who is a part of it, every person who encouraged it, who aided and abetted the mob of leftists (or just one) in any way, shape or form.
When I finished my little stump speech, Howard told me, “I never thought of it that way.”
And apparently, he's decided to continue NOT to think of it that way. That is his prerogative, but at least I know that I did what I could in service to the truth. I can only offer the truth to anyone willing to listen, but I won't try to force it on anyone.
And with this, I conclude this report.
I implore all Liberty-loving Patriots, Defenders of Unalienable Rights, of the Sovereignty of this Constitutional Republic, to take a closer look, a hard look, at those claiming to be what they so clearly are not. Only a few are mentioned here, but they are legion.
You will find their propaganda on numerous high-traffic commercial websites. You will hear their deceptive rhetoric booming out on the airwaves.
But what of their actions? Whom and what do they actually support?
Whom do they attack with their libelous/slanderous falsehoods?
They are deceivers and hypocrites, merchants of false hope, masquerading as patriots, freedom fighters, opponents of the New World Order.
They are the enemies of Liberty, while claiming to champion it.
END
Howard Nemaizer & Janet Phelan
Is there a moral to this story?
I think there is. For those who understand, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not, no explanation is possible.
