The sad fact is some people take these things WAY too seriously.

Russell Eugene Weston Jr., the paranoid schizophrenic who shot and killed two Capitol policemen in 1998, apparently wanted " to prevent the United States from being annihilated by disease and legions of cannibals" and demanded access to the "ruby satellite" which he insisted was kept in a safe in the Senate building.

Why time machines? Because they're a robust, proven technology, that's why! Loved the article, especially this part:

The primitive conditions that they encountered on Mars might explain the high level of danger involved. Mr. Basiago and Mr. Stillings agree that Major Dames stated during their training class at The College of the Siskiyous in 1980: “Of the 97,000 individuals that we have thus far sent to Mars, only 7,000 have survived there after five years.”

In light of these risks, prior to going to Mars, Mr. Basiago received additional training from Mr. Hunt. Hunt, a career CIA officer, showed Mr. Basiago how to operate the respiration device that he would wear only during his first jump to Mars in July 1981, provided him with a weapon to protect himself on Mars, and took him to the Lockheed facility in Burbank, California for training in avoiding predators on the Martian surface.

When they then first teleported to Mars in Summer 1981, the young Mars visitors confronted the situation that Major Dames had covered at length during the class the previous summer – that one of their principal concerns on Mars would be to avoid being devoured by one of the predator species on the Martian surface, some of which they would be able to evade, and some of which were impossible to evade if encountered.

If we can send a man to the moon, why can't we protect our brave teenage college students sent to Mars? Can't we get some ray guns from those aliens we let put their secret underground bases in New Mexico?

Capitol Shooter's Mind-Set Detailed
By Bill Miller
Friday, April 23, 1999

Russell Eugene Weston Jr. told a court-appointed psychiatrist that he stormed the U.S. Capitol last summer, killing two police officers, to prevent the United States from being annihilated by disease and legions of cannibals.

"He described his belief that time was running out and that if he did not come to Washington, D.C., he would become infected with Black Heva," wrote Sally C. Johnson, the psychiatrist who examined Weston last fall. Weston called this imaginary ailment the "most deadliest disease known to mankind" and said it was spread by the rotting corpses of cannibals' victims, Johnson wrote.

Weston told Johnson he went to the Capitol to gain access to what he called "the ruby satellite," a device he said was kept in a Senate safe. That satellite, he insisted, was the key to putting a stop to cannibalism.

The former mental patient told another doctor that he fatally shot officers Jacob J. Chestnut and John M. Gibson on July 24 because they were cannibals who were keeping him from the satellite.

These accounts of the shootings, never before made public, were included in a volume of materials unsealed by a judge in U.S. District Court yesterday. The items included the findings of Johnson and five other mental health specialists, two videotapes of interviews conducted in recent months by a defense psychiatrist and a videotape made in July 1996 when Weston showed up, unannounced, at the Central Intelligence Agency. In that tape, Weston tells a note-taking CIA employee that President Clinton "is a Russian clone, brought to the United States for the purposes of communist insurgency." Weston began his discussion with the CIA by saying that he, too, was a clone.

Judge Emmet G. Sullivan released the materials after finding that Weston is not mentally competent to stand trial for the rampage that killed Chestnut and Gibson and wounded Officer Douglas B. McMillan. Sullivan ordered that Weston, 42, spend the next four months in a federal correctional facility, getting psychiatric treatment in hopes of making him better. He set a follow-up hearing for Sept. 9 to determine whether there is any chance that Weston's condition will improve in the foreseeable future.

The four hours of tapes bring Weston's thoughts vividly to life. On them, he maintains an easygoing, sometimes cheerful disposition as he talks about his beliefs, sprinkling his comments with "of course" and "obviously." He links nearly everyone to a grand conspiracy, with the exception of his lawyers, who he maintains have been representing him for millions of years.

The tapes and documents depict a man obsessed with the idea that he alone could save the country from imagined enemies, including Clinton, who he said was put in the White House by the communists in a secret coup.

Weston, who has a lengthy history of paranoid schizophrenia, including a 53-day involuntary commitment to a Montana hospital, maintains that he has valiantly battled enemies thousands, if not millions, of times.

On the tapes, he describes the ruby satellite system as a means of reversing time. Because of the satellite's ability to manipulate time, Weston told one doctor, Chestnut and Gibson are "not permanently deceased."

The doctors said Weston believes he is perfectly healthy.

The materials provide the most comprehensive look to date at Weston's mind-set. Mental health specialists have said that Weston's illness may be so severe that he never will be deemed competent to stand trial in the killings. Even if the case does go forward, defense attorneys A.J. Kramer and L. Barrett Boss are all but certain to raise an insanity defense. Doctors said Weston now opposes such a plan and views the trial as his best chance to defeat the cannibals. He also views his trial as one of the most significant events in history.

In a conversation with defense psychiatrist Phillip J. Resnick, of University Hospitals in Cleveland, Weston was able to accurately recite the charges against him: two counts of murder, one of attempted murder and three of unlawful use of a weapon. Weston said he has faced this same trial many times in the past. If he does not prevail, he warned, the human race could be wiped out. Weston said it is in the government's best interest to drop the charges against him, and he declared that he has the "upper hand."

"We are just going to let the federal court system know that we know what's going on, and we make sure that they are awake and make sure that they know what's going on, and we give them a chance to turn it over," Weston told Resnick in the interview, conducted in a District jail facility. "You know, I guess you might call that, in the style of the French Revolution, which it is, a coup d'etat of the government with as little bloodshed as possible."

During the interview, Weston appeared calm and confident, espousing his views as if he were a university professor. Indeed, he said he was a professor in one of his many previous incarnations, just before he became the dean of both the medical and law schools of Harvard University. He also said he once was a lawyer who successfully tried thousands of cases.

Details about Weston's psychiatric problems surfaced soon after last summer's shootings. Weston's parents opened their home in Valmeyer, Ill., to the news media and told how he struggled with mental illness for at least two decades. They said "Rusty" believed the federal government was out to kill him and thought that his enemies had planted mines and booby traps and that Clinton had even dispatched an assassin from the Navy Seals to silence him for good. Sometimes he got treatment, they said, but mostly he denied he was sick.

The meeting at the CIA came at a time when Weston's problems repeatedly were drawing the attention of authorities, the psychiatric reports showed. Despite numerous warning signs, however, officials failed to ensure that Weston got the treatment he needed to overcome his illness.

During the spring of 1996, Weston told a sheriff's deputy that government officials were following him, and he warned that he would kill Clinton if Clinton ever tried to kill him. The Secret Service then interviewed Weston, who denied making any such threats. In May, Weston showed up at a hospital emergency room and complained that federal agents were poisoning him with soap. Authorities determined that he did not meet the criteria for civil commitment to a mental hospital and released him even though he declined medication.

At the CIA, Weston linked Clinton to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy and warned that Clinton would detonate an atomic bomb to stay in the White House. The CIA alerted the Secret Service, but it was not until October 1996 that Weston was involuntarily committed to a Montana mental hospital. That action came after Weston went to a hospital to complain he had been brainwashed. After his commitment, Weston moved in with his parents in Illinois. He was staying at the house when he suddenly left for Washington after talking to his sister about Black Heva, cannibals and other delusions.

Weston told psychiatrist Resnick that Judge Sullivan "was involved with black market racketeering. Murder and cannibalism also." He expressed fear that Sullivan would attempt to influence the makeup of his jury to include some cannibals.

For months, prosecutors suggested that Weston could control his delusions and still stand trial. They accused Weston of refusing to cooperate for strategic reasons with a doctor they had selected. But Weston told Resnick he would not talk to the prosecution's psychiatrist because she was a cannibal.

At one point, Weston expressed surprise that none of the doctors who had interviewed him performed the appropriate competency test. "You put your tongue out and hold your tongue out for longer than a minute," Weston said. If the tongue turns purple, he said, that suggests brain problems.

Weston asked Resnick: "Since I told you about this test, did you do any studies on it and hunt for it?

Resnick replied, "I did, and I didn't run into anyone who is familiar with it." Weston appeared disappointed but then moved on to another familiar subject: "the statutes and codes on cannibalism."

If there are cannibals coming, you just know the Senate has something to do with it.

He has been identified as a "planetary-level whistle blower" predicted by the Web Bot, which analyzes the content of the World Wide Web to discern future trends.. . .


Soon, he will publish a tell-all book that will describe his awe-inspiring and terrifying experiences in Project Pegasus and the true story of the emergence of time travel in the US defense community 40 years ago.

Andy was born on September 18, 1961 in Morristown, New Jersey, the youngest of five children, and grew up in Northern New Jersey and Southern California.

A past member of Mensa, the high IQ society, he holds five degrees, including a BA in History from the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) and a Master of Philosophy from the University of Cambridge.

While an undergraduate at UCLA, Andy became a journalist and protégé of writer Norman Cousins, who compared him to Robert M. Hutchins and nominated him to be the editor of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.


A lawyer in private practice, he works with writers and filmmakers in the development of books, TV shows, and feature films with planetary and interplanetary themes.

His crusade to prove his Mars findings and bring them to public light has been called “heroic.”

. . on a crusade as a lawyer and activist to have the US government disclose its time travel secrets. . .

childhood as one of America’s first “chrononauts.”

Andy has enthralled listeners with his accounts of his time travel experiences on numerous radio and podcast interviews. . . .His appearances on talk radio's Coast-to-Coast AM with George Noory . . .

On top of Mr. Basiago being an attorney, a profession I am somewhat embarassed to share with him after reading his bio (http://www.projectmars.net/andrew_d_basiago), he is also a planetary-level whistleblower, past (note this word) mensa member, a writer, editor, film collaboarator, a "hero", child chrononaut, talk radio star . . . and I'm sure a lovely ballroom dancer.



I don't know what more proof you need that this is true. This seems pretty conclusive to me. Obama either is an alien or he consorts with aliens. Either way, it's a bit creepy.

I just read a book about the assassination of James Garfield, and the guy who killed the Capitol Policemen sounds awful familiar, he has a few of the same delusions as Charles J. Guiteau.

Yep, he was not only insane, he was a bad poet - a hallmark of many new-age conspiracy theorists (we've had their bad poetry featured here more than a couple of times).

While being led to his execution, Guiteau was said to have continued to smile and wave at spectators and reporters, happy to be at the center of attention to the very end. He notoriously danced his way to the gallows and on the scaffold as a last request, he recited a poem he had written during his incarceration which he called "I am Going to the Lordy." He had originally requested an orchestra to play as he sang his poem, but this request was denied.

The Prisoner's Last Words
(June 30, 1882)
I am now going to read some verses which are intended to
indicate my feelings at the moment of leaving this world. If set to music they may be rendered very effective. The idea is that of a child babbling to his mamma and his papa. I wrote it this morning about ten o'clock:

I am going to the Lordy, I am so glad,
I am going to the Lordy, I am so glad,
I am going to the Lordy,
Glory hallelujah! Glory hallelujah!
I am going to the Lordy.
I love the Lordy with all my soul,
Glory hallelujah!
And that is the reason I am going to the Lord,
Glory hallelujah! Glory hallelujah!
I am going to the Lord.
I saved my party and my land,
Glory hallelujah!
But they have murdered me for it,
And that is the reason I am going to the Lordy,
Glory hallelujah! Glory hallelujah!
I am going to the Lordy!
I wonder what I will do when I get to the Lordy,
I guess that I will weep no more
When I get to the Lordy!
Glory hallelujah!
I wonder what I will see when I get to the Lordy,
I expect to see most glorious things,
Beyond all earthly conception
When I am with the Lordy!
Glory hallelujah! Glory hallelujah!
I am with the Lord.

That is a pretty odd song- There is a decent tune about Big Bill Mckinley getting shot, but I can't
recall any other assassination songs - Strange as they are important historic events-

I have a small collection jug band songs from old 78s, including White House Blues - which I believe is the song you're referencing. I believe Bill Monroe did it, and people still perform it today (e.g. The Indigo Girls). My favorite line:

Roosevelt in the White House, he's doin' his best
McKinley in the graveyard, he's takin' his rest
He's gone a long old time

An old folk song called "He was a friend of mine" was modified Rodger McGuinn of The Byrds to reference the JFK assassination. Of course there was also "Abraham Martin & John" which made the top 10 in late '68 or early '69.

Has anybody here, seen my old friend John
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people, but it seems the good, they die young
But I just looked around and he's gone.

[LaVidaRoja]

There was also Phil Ochs "Crucifixion" which was definately about Kennedy.

Or Golden Earring did "Ces Soir", but it was about assassinating a rock star.

White House Denies CIA Teleported Obama to Mars
Wired Magazine Online
By Spencer Ackerman Email Author January 3, 2012
Categories: Tinfoil Tuesday

Forget Kenya. Never mind the secret madrassas. The sinister, shocking truth about Barack Obama’s past lies not in east Africa, but in outer space. As a young man in the early 1980s, Obama was part of a secret CIA project to explore Mars. The future president teleported there, along with the future head of Darpa.

That’s the assertion, at least, of a pair of self-proclaimed time-traveling, universe-exploring government agents. Andrew D. Basiago and William Stillings insist that they once served as “chrononauts” at Darpa’s behest, traversing the boundaries of time and space. They swear: A youthful Barack Obama was one of them.

Perhaps this all sounds fantastical, absurd, and more than a little nuts. We couldn’t agree more. That’s one of the reasons we love conspiracy theories — the more awesomely insane, the better. Each week during 2012, when the Mayans tell us to expect the apocalypse, Danger Room will peel back a new layer of crazy to expose those oh-so-cleverly hidden machinations powering this doomed plane of existence. Welcome — back — to Tinfoil Tuesday.

According to Basiago and Stillings, Obama isn’t just lying about his identity. He’s lying about his military service record, too. While his political opponents in 2008 attacked him for never serving, in truth, he was concealing his participation in a hidden CIA intergalactic program hosted at a California community college in 1980.

Officially, the White House says Obama never went to Mars. “Only if you count watching Marvin the Martian,” Tommy Vietor, the spokesman for the National Security Council, tells Danger Room. But that’s exactly what a secret chrononaut wants you to believe.

Obama wasn’t the only one making the otherworldly voyage. As “Barry Soetero,” the 19-year-old Obama was one of 10 youths selected to secretly teleport to and from Mars, forming a band of interplanetary Teen Titans. Regina Dugan, the director of Darpa, was another member.

Between 1981 and 1983, Obama is supposed to have visited Mars twice, by way of a teleportation chamber called a “jump room.” Basiago, a fellow chrononaut, told the website Exopolitics that he saw Obama “walk back to the jump room from across the Martian terrain.” To acknowledge his comrade, Obama is said to have told Basiago, “We’re here” — apparently, “with some sense of fatalism.”

It is not known what exactly Obama did on Mars. (Socializing Martian health care, perhaps? Building a birth-certificate printing press?) His mission was a perilous one, according to Basiago and Stillings. The CIA wished to “establish a defense regime protecting the Earth from threats from space” as well as a legal claim to “territorial sovereignty,” making Obama something of a Martian conquistador. Presumably, Obama’s CIA handlers needed him to “acclimate Martian humanoids and animals to their presence” in order to secure the U.S.-Martian alliance. (We’ll bet you weren’t even aware of Martian animals.)

“Simply put, your task is to be seen and not eaten,” an elder chrononaut, retired Army Maj. Ed Dames, is alleged to have told a young Obama.

You can scoff at the idea of Obama on Mars. But it explains a lot. Obviously the birth-certificate controversy is a side effect of Obama forgetting to sufficiently establish his fake identity as he learned to manipulate time and space. (Dugan has a demonstrated record of supporting space travel; the “jump room” must be broken.) And who else but a man accustomed to keeping the country’s most explosive secret would be comfortable waging so many undeclared wars? Ignore Basiago and Stillings at your own peril. If Obama’s reelected, the U.S. is finally colonizing Mars.

[Pottapaug1938]

Mars? How low-level. Any Illuminatum worth his or her retinue of young, scantily-clad servants knows that the REAL place to go, for interplanetary travel, is to the secret base deep within Neptune.

[The Observer]

I am just surprised that the White House felt it had to spend time denying this nonsense.

In fact, such an action raises the "methinks he doth protest too much" argument...
