Re-posted with thanks to CIA Whistleblower Barbara Hartwell for her friendship, support and candor in speaking out.
I posted her article in a brief thread on Twitter yesterday (link below) with some thoughts & much gratitude. To clarify, as Barbara notes, I was pleasantly surprised and appreciative but did not ask Barbara to write in my support. It is a pure testament to Barbara Hartwell’s integrity and sense of rightmindedness and justice that she would write in support of a friend and sister journalist working for Truth and Justice as she is, and there really is no-one else in the world like her, uncompromising in her integrity and clear-seeing of Dark and Light, rock-solid reliable in her alignment with Light. I am honored therefore and grateful beyond words for her freely-given friendship and her incisive, history-making writing.

IN DEFENSE OF RAMOLA D: TARGET OF VILE SMEAR CAMPAIGN
“Good name in man and woman, dear my lord,
Is the immediate jewel of their souls:
Who steals my purse steals trash;
’tis something, nothing;
’twas mine, ’tis his, and has been slave to thousands;
But he that filches from me my good name
Robs me of that which not enriches him,
And makes me poor indeed.”
― William Shakespeare, Othello
Katherine Horton has been running a massive smear campaign against a former colleague, Ramola D, for at least the past 18 months. I do not know Katherine Horton, but I have witnessed the damages to Ramola’s reputation, as a journalist, and as a person, as her character has been vilely assassinated and her professional work trashed.
To add insult to injury, Katherine Horton has enlisted many others among her gaggle of sycophants (her followers on social media, supporters of her website and audience of her You Tube channel) to engage in mob tactics against Ramola, to attack her, to defame her good name, to publish outrageous lies against her and her family.
Additionally, Horton has targeted others for her lies and calumny, including Barbara Hartwell.
EXCERPT from previous report:
Horton then began a smear campaign against Barbara Hartwell, promoting outrageous falsehoods for which she had no evidence whatsoever. Horton has claimed from the beginning that I am a CIA agent. Having no facts at her disposal, she simply parroted the mantra of long-running counterintelligence ops against me: Barbara Hartwell is a CIA disinfo agent.
I wrote several reports in which I refuted her false claims, and further exposed her as a malicious liar and promoter of violence and murder, using HER OWN PUBLISHED WORDS as evidence.
*******
In my considered professional opinion, as an intelligence analyst and former profiler for the US government, based on my observations of her words and actions, from March 2018 until the present time, Katherine Horton is a despicable fraud whose prolific criminal conduct makes her a danger to anyone associated with her.
What is of great concern to me is that so few people will stand up and tell the unvarnished truth about Katherine Horton, though the writing is on the wall, clear as crystal for those with eyes to see.
Nor will they stand up publicly in defense of Ramola. What I have witnessed (aside from those rabid Horton supporters openly participating in the witch hunt) are the fence-sitters, the compromisers, who refuse to take a firm stand, to name names of those engaged in unscrupulous actions, some of which are criminal in nature.
No, apparently they would rather sit silently on the sidelines, waiting to see which way the wind blows, rather than stand up and be counted in defense of Ramola against her enemies, those who clearly wish to destroy her.
For the record, I stand with Ramola, not just because she is my friend; not just because she has supported me and my work (for which I know she has taken tremendous heat). I stand with her because I see her value as one of very few people I have known who DOES stand up against evil, against oppression, against tyranny, without compromising her principles, without concern for the approval of others, whatever the consequences to herself.
Ramola did not ask me to write this, though I dare say she may not be surprised that I did. As her friend and colleague, I know the terrible price she has paid for telling the truth and for standing up for what she knows to be right, even if she has to stand alone. That is the stuff of which heroes are made and I cannot be silent in the face of these vile attacks on her name, her character and her work on behalf of those many decent, law-abiding persons, worldwide, being targeted for harassment, torture, terror, wrongful incarceration and life-destroying crimes.
