Welcome to TheEmpireLies.com, your resource for exposing the mechanisms of U.S. imperialism and its far-reaching influence across the globe. Our platform focuses on critically analyzing the United States’ power structures, with a particular emphasis on territorial control, military dominance, and media propaganda. Through research, fact-checking, and investigative reporting, we aim to challenge mainstream narratives and shine a light on the realities often obscured by official accounts.
Our Core Focus Areas
- Territorial Control and Vassal States
The United States exerts influence far beyond its formal borders through territories, vassal states, and economic dependencies. From unincorporated territories like Guam and Puerto Rico to global alliances that function as de facto extensions of U.S. power, we explore how territorial control is maintained through political, legal, and economic means. - Military Dominance
With over 800 military bases in foreign countries and a defense budget exceeding $900 billion in 2023, the U.S. Armed Forces are unparalleled in their global reach. We delve into the role of the military-industrial complex, overseas deployments, and the use of force to project power and secure strategic interests worldwide. - Media Propaganda
The media is a critical tool for shaping public perception and legitimizing U.S. actions abroad. By examining narratives pushed by major outlets, we expose how propaganda is used to justify wars, interventions, and policies that serve imperial objectives while silencing dissenting voices.
