Behind the Admiral's Mask: TechGods & PEUs


TV Insider reported:

An interview that aired on Fox News on Tuesday (May 19) has baffled viewers as it appeared that a guest was wearing a realistic rubber mask of their own face. 

Retired United States Navy SEAL Robert Harward appeared on America’s Newsroom with Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino on Tuesday, where he discussed President Trump’s ongoing war with Iran. While Harward explained his thoughts on the conflict, viewers became distracted by his neck, which many believed looked like the seam of a mask.

It was nice of Fox News to make it so clear that the parade of retired generals and admirals have something to hide.  It is rare for any news outlet in the U.S. to declare their guests actual line of work or their conflicts of interest.  

Admiral James Stavridis is a regular on CNN and they rarely share his full time job, Vice Chair of The Carlyle Group, a politically connected private equity underwriter (PEU).

Harward has numerous positions, some with PEU attachments.  Primarily he works for a TechGod, ShieldAI.  Bob is also on the Board of Directors of Metatek, Mistril Technologies and CoTec.  He serves on Academy Securities Advisory Board.  He also serves on The Iran Policy Project for the Jewish Institute for National Security of America.


Chances are this is a cheesy makeup mask (not full face) or some poorly preforming image background.  But it is fortuitous that the flapping neck fold was picked up by so many.

It is a symbol of false front shared by so many "experts" on the news.  Behind the curtain one finds politicians Red & Blue love PEU and their new TechGod/CryptoBro brethren.  Increasingly, more are one.
