Fulford’s Report:
Pentagon close to mutiny against US reality TV government
The US has just lost an entire navy convoy, including the aircraft carrier USS George Washington, according to Iranian sources. They sent us this video of what looks like an aircraft carrier sinking.
This comes as the reality TV show pretending to be government in the US ignored warnings from top brass that the US had run out of military options against Iran. They sent the aircraft carrier to certain doom in what the Iranians describe as “a sacrifice of 5200 men to Satan.”
At the same time, the US Treasury Secretary and Rockefeller slave Scott Bessent announced “the biggest economic action of Donald Trump’s presidency.” He had promised an economic D-Day. He named no country. He named no deadline. He did not designate a single major Chinese bank. China buys 80% of Iran’s oil exports.
https://www.narativ.org/p/0825-dminus
US Senator Chris Murphy has criticized the announcement, describing Bessent’s so-called “Economic D-Day” rhetoric as “desperate window dressing” to mask US military failures. Basically, when Bessent said “you are either with us or against us,” the whole world turned against him.
Bessent is also using the old tactic of trying to cause inflation in Iran by flooding the country with fake dollar bills. The Iranians are not being fooled.

They are demanding $300 billion in real dollars as compensation for the damage the US has done to their country. The US does not have the money to pay, because all they have left are fake dollars that are being quarantined from the international financial system.
The latest sign of this was a renewed trade war with Canada. This came after Canada refused to hand over more money to keep the US from going bankrupt. “Trump” handler Howard Lutnick tried to impose more tariffs on Canada last week, but these hurt the US more than Canada. Aluminum is a good example. The U.S. depends on Canada for 75 per cent of its imported primary aluminum, covering 60 per cent of its yearly usage. With 50 per cent tariffs in place, he says American industries, not Canadian smelters, will bear the brunt of the financial pain, as U.S. manufacturers face soaring production costs.
Canada is standing by to help their American friends as soon as they shake off their criminal government.
In a sign of this, the government-owned Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) sent a memo to its reporters and editors instructing them not to refer to the September 11, 2001, attack on America as a “terrorist attack.” Let us see if they finally report the truth as the 25th anniversary of this false-flag attack comes up next week.
Meanwhile, facing disaster after disaster, the criminal acting troupe that seized power in the West is desperately trying to hide the truth with arguably the biggest censorship campaign in US history. Any government that fears the truth is doomed because it means reality is not on their side.
This was illustrated by “Trump” posting an AI video of Iran’s Kharg Island being destroyed. . The Pentagon was forced to issue a denial.
The incompetent Satan-worshipping criminals running the US government are trying to prevent members of the US armed forces from getting the truth. They fired the management of the US military newspaper Stars and Stripes for reporting a mutiny aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln.
Three fired Stars and Stripes journalists sued Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and two other top Pentagon officials in federal court Thursday, claiming the Trump administration is attempting to fire them illegally as part of its “extraordinary censorship efforts” against the military news outlet.
The satanic regime has also ordered urgent audits of more than 30 universities in the United States, including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, to examine academic and financial ties with China, Russia, and other countries.
For those of you who still do not get the extraordinary truth about satanists seizing power in the US, listen below to “Lady Gaga” admit she was forced to wear a dress made from the skins of murdered child stars.
Why is this not the biggest news item on CNN, the New York Times etc.?
This rot runs to the very top of the system. In June, the FBI quietly lowered the standards it uses when it conducts background checks. Now they accept applicants who admit to hiring sex workers or stealing from an employer or engaging in acts of bestiality. Never mind that these acts are illegal in most of the country.
The move comes as the FBI has lost scores of employees through firings, retirements, and resignations since the start of the Trump administration.

The US is now a slave society with criminals enforcing so-called justice.
In a sign the US is an unhappy slave society:
Average American energy starts fading at 2:48 p.m., with 21% saying it drops before noon.
Eighty-two percent say they run their lives on “autopilot,” and 71% skip or delay meals because they are too busy, an average of 3.4 times a week.
https://studyfinds.com/americans-live-on-autopilot/
Meanwhile, the reality TV actor playing “US President Donald Trump” is being given increasingly erratic scripts to read, in what looks like a deliberate campaign to groom Vice President JD Vance as a possible “saviour.”
Unfortunately, US military sources inform us that Vance is probably the son of
self-described satanist and former psychological warfare specialist for the US army Michael Aquino. Aquino founded the Church of Set.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_A._Aquino
As one source explains, “if you look up on X try to find a picture of him with no beard next to Michael Aquino; it looks like his son to me.”
Even if Vance replaces Trump, he will be unable to save the current US regime and government from collapse. This is due to both military and economic defeat.
On the military side, as MSN reports:
The heads of the Army, Navy and Air Force and the four-star commanders overseeing U.S. operations throughout Europe, Asia and Latin America advised Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that prolonging large-scale operations against Iran is unsustainable and risks weakening their ability to confront threats elsewhere, including the U.S. homeland… Adm. Daryl Caudle, the chief of Naval Operations, conveyed to Hegseth that barely one-fourth of the Navy’s destroyer fleet is ready to deploy, a sharp decline from prewar levels, said those familiar with the assessment.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/ar-AA2bcXDK
British intelligence confirms that the US Navy is close to mutiny as sailors are not getting paid and not getting properly fed. This comes as they wage a war against Iran that has nothing to do with defending the United States.
In one example, the destroyer USS Benfold went four days without power, leaving the crew without hot meals, air conditioning, and other basic amenities.
https://vtforeignpolicy.com/2026/08/us-navy-facing-serious-logistical-problems/
The Benfold is supposed to be a state-of-the-art destroyer whose job was to protect the USS Washington until the power outage took it out of the picture. The Russians and Chinese have the ability to shut down the electronics of US warships. This was first demonstrated with the USS Donald Cook, which was turned into a useless hulk when it was shut down in the Black Sea in 2014. What this means is the Benfold may well have been taken out of commission in order to leave the USS George Washington unprotected. If the preliminary reports of its sinking are true, then only 3 out of the US Navy’s 11 aircraft carriers are now in service.
Here is what Iranian sources reported about the attack: “a US Navy convoy was devastated as it approached the Strait of Hormuz in the most devastating blow to the US Navy since World War II. Iranian naval forces have been using a combination of supersonic anti-ship missiles (Khalij Fars), attack drones, and fast boats to saturate the defenses of US warships—a tactic they have perfected with the help of Russia and China.”
Since the current US regime is allergic to the truth, we have asked British Intelligence to confirm these preliminary Iranian reports. They already told us “the US appears to be losing badly.”
It is not just the navy that is suffering. Iranian Major General Mostafa Izadi says that the downing of over 200 enemy aircraft had stirred serious public scrutiny in the United States and fueled internal instability within the Israeli regime.
Iran has changed its policy from “defense” to “offense,” Iranian sources say. Tehran is demanding that the US fully implement the interim agreement signed on June 17th and expired on August 17th. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DcJmYZ3Mbjt/
Iran is also now insisting on Israel’s nuclear disarmament as a condition for ending the war.
According to Pakistani sources, Iran, Egypt, and Bangladesh have been invited to join the Mecca agreement, a military alliance between Turkey, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. According to an Iranian diplomat, this will be a precursor for a collective force to attack Israel. At this point, the long-awaited arrest of war criminals and child torturers hiding in Israel will begin.
Meanwhile, “Secretary of War” Pete Hegseth doubled down on his war criminal record when he ignored warnings from commanders and dismantled the civilian protection program. This decision preceded operations in Yemen and Iran that killed hundreds of non-combatants, sparking international outrage and mounting congressional pressure to partially revive the program.
So, unable to kill actual soldiers, the US military under Hegseth is deliberately attacking civilians.
They are also getting increasingly delusional. “Trump” signed an executive order launching the U.S. Space Academy on Friday during a ceremony at NASA’s Johnson Space Center, where he awarded the Congressional Space Medal of Honor to four astronauts who crewed the Artemis II mission.
The MOH is for heroism in combat, “space Medal of Honor” is hilarious, and the Artemis “mission” wasn’t even real.
Now you know why I cut off contact with my “US Space Force” sources. They fed me real news but also tried to turn me into a space cowboy with tons of UFO and woo woo information in order to ruin my credibility. Never once did they provide any proof of real space exploration or advanced technology. Nor did they take up my offers to visit the US Space Force to see for myself. My conclusion after decades of reporting is that most of the US space opera originated from Lawrence Rockefeller aka John Podesta. Expect more space opera as the US continues to disintegrate.
We are also getting multiple reports that the US government is planning some sort of nuclear false-flag event to try to save themselves from inevitable Nuremberg 2.0 war crimes tribunals.
Russian Foreign Ministry special envoy Andrey Belousov says “US military strategists are seriously considering the possibility of using nuclear weapons in Europe, to divert international attention from what he describes as the threat posed by US nuclear weapons stationed in Europe.”
https://tass.com/politics/2179385
So, the official Russian state news agency is saying that the US is planning a nuclear false-flag event in Europe to blame on Russia. This comes as Friedrich Merz is also pushing his own false flag to blame on Russia. Germany is staging a drone incident at Leipzig Airport to try to blame on Russia. The plan is to use this incident to try to discredit the patriotic German AfD Party and prevent them from winning in upcoming elections. The idea is to paint them as pro-Russian, according to Russian Foreign Intelligence Service sources.
However, false-flag operations are no longer fooling very many people, and this plotting is a sign of desperation.
In an even greater sign of desperation, CIA Director John Ratcliffe flew to Russia last week. Ratcliffe proposed turning the Donbass Region of Ukraine into a tax-free zone controlled by the US, according to US military sources. In other words, the arms, drugs, and human trafficking part of the CIA is looking for a place to hide and continue business as their Ukrainian criminal enterprise collapses. Of course, the Russians said nyet.
Also, why did Ratcliffe bring a C-17 with a refrigerator unit onboard if not to bring back dead bodies? As opposed to the Gulfstream with secure comms the Director has available?
In any case, there can be no doubt Ukraine is sinking deeper into a political crisis, which could reach its peak as early as this fall. A new investigation by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAPO) has once again involved people close to Vladimir Zelensky. At the same time, former Defense Minister Mikhail Fedorov has returned to the public spotlight, calling for elections to be held even under martial law.
https://tass.com/pressreview/2175467
Various agencies and departments in the United States are conducting at least 49 probes into US weapons supplies to Ukraine, data from Ukrainian law enforcement agencies shows.
In yet another sign of rats abandoning a sinking ship, a Ukrainian consular attaché working at the Ukrainian Embassy in Poland was detained at the border. He attempted to smuggle $140,000, €68,000, 12 kg of gold, and 13.8 kg of jewelry, according to Polish intelligence.
The regime is so moribund, it was forced to stage a “Parade of the Dead” in Kiev instead of a regular parade featuring real soldiers to celebrate “independence.” It featured military robots and photos of fallen soldiers instead of living personnel. “The nation has lost its soul, with only machines and dead imagery present at the ceremony,” a Polish intelligence source comments.
Meanwhile, the satanic puppet regimes in Germany, France and the UK are now not even bothering to hide their fascist nature.
French journalist Thierry Meyssan reports “Ukraine’s unelected president, Volodymyr Zelensky, awarded his French host, President Emmanuel Macron, the Ukrainian Order of Freedom.” This event took place just before the July 14th Bastille Day celebrations that are supposed to honour the French Revolution.
Instead of French troops, fascist Ukrainian troops associated with Nazi SS war crimes marched. “Not since the Nazi occupation have fascists been permitted to march on the Champs-Élysées,” Meyssan writes.
https://www.voltairenet.org/article224838.html
Now we find out that Raphaël Glucksmann, a Member of the European Parliament and a candidate in France’s 2027 presidential election, is directly involved in the creation and coordination of a network of torture prisons in Georgia and Ukraine. The prisons operate according to methods modeled on those used by the CIA. The Foundation to Battle Injustice analyzed previously unpublished materials and testimonies from former intelligence officers in both countries.
In the UK, meanwhile, blackmailed pedophile Prime Minister Keir Starmer has been replaced by blackmailed in-the-closet homosexual Andy Burnham. Burnham is providing state-of-the-art UK military technology to the fascists in Ukraine, according to British Intelligence.
In a sign of just how far down the tubes the UK has sunk, the Birmingham City Council is banning people from flying the flags of England and the UK while allowing flags from other countries such as Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and Palestine.

Stillness General Comment on Fulford Reports
I decided to add this general comment to all Fulford reports since I frequently receive the same questions about them.
Commentary:
In response to many questions and comments I receive from people wondering why I share these reports, I offer the following.
Speaking as someone who has been following Fulford’s reports since 2011, reading them should probably be done with a large grain of salt. That is to say, he seems to share information directly from alleged sources within the Pentagon, CIA, White Dragon Society, and so on. Often the data presented is contradictory on the surface.
The predictions and statements Fulford makes sometimes are highly accurate, whereas, in other instances, they are completely unfounded. Instead of looking to Fulford as one who is “tapped into” some greater truth, it would probably be more productive to consider his data as one possible perspective on what is happening on Earth at this time.
This of course extends to all sources of information. Fulford, like all of us, is only human and can make mistakes. But that doesn’t detract from the work he has done to spread awareness and move things forward to a brighter future for humanity.
Discernment is the process of understanding what something is, which in Fulford’s case, means entertaining his reports without believing them blindly, and then doing the follow-up research/fact-checking to determine what actually happened. In this way, it is a real-time discernment exercise.
The fact that so many people continue to read his reports despite their sensational and wildly inaccurate nature at times—while also being accurate and poignant—means the people he receives information from are probably using him as a mouthpiece to speak to you—the reader who is on their awakening path. As such, blind belief or callous rejection are not our allies but critical thinking and open-mindedness are.
As I have said before, if he is serving as a mouthpiece for various groups working to change the status quo or agents within the Cabal, we can decipher the data as if it is a form of awakening propaganda—information that certain players want to expose the masses to. What effect this has on your personal process is largely up to you. But I would suggest taking an active role in discernment and not falling into the trap of total acceptance or rejection.
