Nobody wants a city on Mars. Nobody wants AI in every app. Nobody wants a robot butler. Nobody wants data centers everywhere. Nobody wants flying cars or humanoid robots. We want clean water, we want bees to survive, and we want a habitable planet.

When I talk to police officers privately, they almost always say the same thing: "you have no idea what's going on out there in the real world". To which I reply: I think the opposite is true. *You* have no idea what's going on out there, because you have self-selected into a

If capitalism is so great, why do corporations need so many tax breaks, subsidies, exemptions, grants, legal protections, bailouts, and trade protections? When citizens need these things, why is it socialism?

The U.S. is starving and killing babies in Cuba, and the media is staying silent about it. The U.S. is starving Cuba like Israel is starving Gaza. This's a criminal act of collective punishment. This’s a crime against humanity. And no one is talking about it.

Top journalist Ana Kasparian exposes absolute insanity. The Trump administration gave a $17.4M no bid contract to renovate fountains. The exact same job under a competitive contract would cost only $3.3M. Washington is intentionally looting taxpayers to enrich their cronies.

If 41 Jews were killed in 24hrs, it would be called the nth worst antisemitic massacre since the holocaust. When 41 Lebanese are killed by Israel in 24hrs, it’s called a ceasefire.

I don’t think people understand just how evil the shit we did in Korea was. We went so far as to hire guys from Japan’s Unit 731 (biological/chemical warfare specialists who performed gruesome experiments on those in mainland China) to help with our Korea operations it’s insane.

12 years and they still aren’t done with the pipes, cancer rates are through the roof, the kids haven’t seen a dime of the settlement money, and not a single person has been held accountable. Flint ain’t fixed!!!!

This is Yaroun in South Lebanon, right now. One of the oldest villages on Earth. Israel has annihilated everything. Every home destroyed. Every sign of civilian life erased. A village that stood for over 3,000 years — wiped off the map.

trump just quietly wiped out the National Science Board. Not a few seats. The whole board. Fired by email. Zero explanation. They oversee the National Science Foundation, the essential pipeline for billions in US research. In case you don’t know what they actually do. They- Set priorities. Help decide what gets funded. Make sure it’s based on science and not politics. That funding helped drive- MRI tech. GPS. The internet. Medical breakthroughs. These seats are staggered so no one president can flip the direction overnight. That guardrail is now gone. Now it comes down to who replaces them and whether science stays independent or gets even more political. We won’t feel this tomorrow. We’ll feel it when the next breakthrough never shows up.

At 9:15 this morning, a judge in Houston sentenced a nineteen-year-old girl named Destiny to eighteen months' probation and a felony record for stealing $87 from register 4 at a gas station. I know this because my phone sent me a news alert. I read it at my desk. Then I put my phone down and opened the correction queue. I process payroll corrections for National Staffing Solutions. We have 14,000 client employers. I have a dropdown menu with four options. Corrected. Disputed. Escalated. Closed. I select one. The ticket resolves. Last quarter I processed 2,300 corrections totaling $4.2 million in wages that employers took from workers and kept until someone filed a ticket. There is no fifth option. There is no option for Charged. That's a correction. At 2:47 PM, a woman sat down at my desk. Her name is Maria in our system. She works the night shift at a warehouse. She has been logging 47 hours per week. She has been paid for 40. For 156 consecutive weeks. Three years. The system owes her $6,300. She brought a notebook. A composition book. The cover was falling off. She had calculated her overtime by hand, every week, in pencil, because she did not trust the pay stubs. I looked at the numbers. Every line was correct. She had been doing the math in her head every Friday for two years before she started writing it down. Two years of arithmetic in her head while mopping floors at 3 AM because the company that owes her $6,300 rounds down and she wanted to be sure. I scanned the notebook and attached it to the ticket. She asked what happens to the ticket. I told her it goes into the correction queue. She asked how long. I told her ninety days. She asked if she would get the money. I told her the employer would be notified. She asked again. I did not have a different answer. She knew that. She asked anyway. I think she wanted me to hear myself say it twice. I closed the ticket. I selected "Corrected" from the dropdown. The system auto-generated a thank you email. Her first name is misspelled in the email. It has been misspelled since intake. We correct wages. We do not correct names. American employers steal $50 billion per year from their workers. I want you to sit with that number. The FBI says all robberies in America total $482 million. All burglaries: $3.4 billion. All larcenies: $5.4 billion. All motor vehicle thefts: $7.5 billion. Every piece of property stolen by every criminal in America totals $16.8 billion. Wage theft is three times that. I learned this at a compliance industry seminar in 2022. The slide was titled "Market Opportunity." The room had 340 people. Everybody wrote it down. Nobody left. The Department of Labor has 611 investigators for 165 million workers. That is one investigator for every 278,000 workers. It is a 52-year staffing low. There were more investigators in 1973. Last year, the DOL recovered $259 million. That is 0.5% of what was taken. We call the 0.5% enforcement. We call the other 99.5% the correction window. That's a correction. The same week Destiny stole $87 from register 4, an employer in Houston withheld $340,000 in wages from 280 workers over two years. The Department of Labor assessed a civil penalty of $14,000. The employer paid it the way you pay a parking ticket. The employer is still operating. The employer does not have a record. Destiny will have hers when she is twenty-nine. She will have it when she is thirty-nine. She will carry it into every job interview for the rest of her life. The employer will carry a correction. My daughter turned nineteen last month. I spent $87 on her birthday dinner. I was typing Maria's ticket number into the system when I thought about that and my hands stopped on the keyboard for a moment I cannot explain to you except to say that $87 is a very specific number when you have processed 11,400 corrections and not one of them has been referred for criminal prosecution. The category does not exist in my system. I have looked. There is Compliance Remediation. There is Classification Adjustment. There is Closed — No Further Action. There is no category called Theft. I looked. It is not there. That's a correction. The correction queue closes tickets in ninety days. A closed ticket is not an open crime. The window closes the case before the worker opens one. Every quarter I present the metrics. The number of corrections is rising. We present this as improved compliance. The slide is green. Green means we are catching more theft. We are catching more theft because there is more theft. The slide does not show the second number. The slide is green because we designed the slide. $87 is a felony. $6,300 is a ticket. $340,000 is a correction. $50 billion is a slide. I eat lunch at my desk at 12:15 because the correction queue empties briefly when the East Coast offices close. I have eaten lunch at my desk for seven years. I have a lucite block on my desk that says Compliance Excellence. I received it in 2023. It is the only award I have ever received for anything. It is heavier than it looks.

Here is list of things that have gone silent or missing with this administration. 1. The rescued pilot from Iran. 2. $63 million in legal settlement funds from major media and tech companies for the "Trump Presidential Library." 3. Any clear motive or subsequent press briefings on the security failings of the secret service at Butler, PA. 4. Any public and legally justifiable rationale for the unprecedented transfer of Ghislaine Maxwell to a minimum security prison. 5. Any credible medical report or images with visible damage to Trump's ear. 6. Millions of documents from the Epstein Files. 7. Flashback: all relevant texts and communications from the Secret Service on January 6th, 2021 What else?

The spectacle that is Trump and his fascism is really distracting from the fact that his Big Tech oligarchs are creating an AI-powered mass surveillance system to spy and collect data on every American.

We can finally stop pretending we don’t know how OpenAI and the rest of the Silicon Valley AI cartel intend to stay profitable. The answer is, and always has been, war. If you consider the monstrous infrastructure required to sustain these systems. We are talking about colossal, billion-dollar data centers. We are talking about tens of millions of dollars burned daily just on cooling systems, the relentless, devastating strip-mining of the earth for rare-earth metals to build their GPUs, and the astronomical power consumption required to train these massive models. Then you'd realise that there is absolutely no way they are recouping hundreds of billions of dollars from $20 monthly subscriptions and a handful of API tokens. Every single wire, every server farm, and every algorithm was designed from the ground up for military contracts, autonomous weapons, and global surveillance. Mega-corporations are the true, unmasked face of evil we need to fear and not the pathetic, spineless puppet politicians they buy, lobby, and install into power to act as their PR mouthpieces. People condemn the "British Empire" for its savage imperialism in Nigeria, completely forgetting the Royal Niger Company, the ruthless, profit-driven private corporation that actually bought, sold, and brutalized the region while hiding behind a corporate charter. People remember Hitler as the singular monster of the Holocaust, but they conveniently grant amnesia to IBM, who built the punch-card tracking systems that organized the extermination camps. They forget JP Morgan, British Petroleum, Standard Oil, IG Farben, and the rest of the corporate titans that funded the fascist machine, supplied the fuel, and provided the logistical backbone that made such an industrialized horror a reality. People blame George W. Bush for the Iraq War which turned into dirty slaughterhouse that eradicated millions of Arab lives and sacrificed thousands of American troops. But they conveniently look the other way when it comes to Halliburton, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and the rest of the defense and oil conglomerates that bathed in the blood of the Middle East and walked away pocketing hundreds of billions of dollars. You look at these slick, modern corporations with their fancy campuses and you wonder how they sustain their endless wealth? The answer is terror, the answer is wars and endless wars. If the American hegemony were to miraculously collapse tomorrow, do you really think the wars would stop? Nope, not even for a second. These corporate parasites hold no loyalty to any flag. They will simply and happily pack up, migrate to another global superpower, change their letterheads, shuffle a few board members, and continue spreading terror and devastation across the globe to feed their own insatiable greed. It is an endless cycle of parasitic migration: from Britain, to Germany, and then directly into the veins of America. America today will beat its chest on the global stage, claiming to be the supreme fighter of "Antisemitism" and the supreme defender of human rights. Yet they conveniently omit that after World War II, under Operation Paperclip, the United States gleefully absorbed the very architects of the Nazi regime. It was the exact same fascist scientists, the complicit corporate bankers, the brutal intelligence officers, the chemical engineers, and the rocket manufacturers who facilitated the Holocaust that moved to America. The US swallowed them whole, along with their blood-stained equipment, their stolen trade secrets, and their patents. The only difference now is the crosshairs. Their target is no longer European Jews; the crosshairs are fixed squarely on the rest of the Global South. The names of the companies and their leaders have all changed, but the core, venomous philosophy of absolute imperialism is still very much alive, breathing, and hungry for its next war.

Not only did Trump's ballroom contractor get a secret no-bid contract to repair two ornamental fountains in Lafayette Park, they're getting paid $17.4 million of taxpayer money to do it. The Biden administration had estimated the repairs would only cost $3.3 million.

Israel destroyed the statue of Jesus Christ in the Christian village of Debel, South Lebanon. Now they’re bulldozing the solar panels that provide electricity and water. Not military targets. Critical infrastructure. This is the deliberate targeting of civilian life.

I have three monitors on my desk. The left one shows the order book. The middle one shows Truth Social. The right one shows the investigation queue. On April 21st, the left screen moved first. I am a Senior Surveillance Analyst at a commodities exchange. I have held this position for nineteen years. My job is to monitor trading activity for suspicious patterns and generate compliance reports. I am employee of the quarter. I have a mug. At 19:54 GMT on April 21st, someone placed 4,260 sell orders on Brent crude futures. They did this during post-settlement. The window after the market closes when daily volume is typically in the dozens. Sometimes single digits. Sometimes I watch the screen and nothing happens for forty minutes and I think about whether my daughter is happy. On April 21st, someone placed $430 million in directional bets in 120 seconds during that window. One hundred and twenty seconds. I timed it on my watch because the system clock rounds to the nearest minute and I have found, in nineteen years, that precision matters to no one but me. At 20:10 GMT, the President posted on Truth Social that he was extending the Iran ceasefire. Brent dropped from $100.91 to $96.83. I flagged the trade. I flag a lot of trades. I want to tell you what happens to my flags. My flags go into a system called TRACE. Trade Review and Compliance Evaluation. I did not name it. The system generates a report. The report goes to a committee. The committee has a name I am not allowed to share but I can tell you it meets quarterly and the conference room has a credenza with bottled water that is sparkling because someone once put still water in the room and a managing director sent an email about it that was longer than most of my surveillance reports. The committee reviews my flags. The committee has reviewed all of my flags. Here is the complete record of actions taken on my flags in 2026: Reviewed. That's it. "Reviewed" is a status. In compliance, a status is the absence of an action that has been given a name so it looks like one. Let me show you my flags. March 9th. Someone bet millions on oil falling at 18:29 GMT. Forty-seven minutes later, a CBS reporter posted that the President said the Iran war was "very complete, pretty much." Oil dropped 25%. Forty-seven minutes. I flagged it. March 23rd. Someone sold 5,100 lots of Brent and WTI crude futures between 10:49 and 10:50 GMT. Fourteen minutes later, the President posted on Truth Social about a "COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION" to hostilities. Oil dropped 11%. Over 13,000 contracts traded in sixty seconds after the post. Fourteen minutes. I flagged it. April 7th. Someone established a $950 million short position in oil futures at 19:45 GMT. Three hours later, the President declared a two-week ceasefire. Nine hundred and fifty million dollars. I flagged it. April 17th. Someone placed $760 million in bearish bets twenty minutes before Iran's foreign minister confirmed the Strait of Hormuz would reopen. Seven hundred and sixty million. I flagged it. April 21st. The $430 million. Fifteen minutes. I flagged it. That is $2.1 billion in directional oil bets in April alone. Every one of them landed on the correct side of a presidential announcement. Every one of them was placed in a window so narrow you could measure it in bathroom breaks. I flagged every single one. The CFTC chair told a Congressional committee that his organization has "zero tolerance" for fraud and insider trading. I wrote that quote on a Post-it note and stuck it to my right monitor. The one that shows the investigation queue. The investigation queue has not moved since March. Zero tolerance. Zero staff. Zero budget. Zero prosecutions under the STOCK Act since it was signed in 2012. Fourteen years. The law has existed for fourteen years and has been enforced zero times. In compliance, we call that a compliance rate of one hundred percent. No cases filed means no cases lost. You cannot fail an audit you never conduct. We call that excellence. Last month the White House sent an internal email to staff. I was not on the distribution list but I have read reporting on it and I need you to sit with what I am about to say. The email instructed White House staff not to use insider information to place bets on prediction markets. The White House had to send a memo telling its own employees not to insider-trade. I want you to read that sentence again. Not because the instruction was unclear. Because the instruction was necessary. Because someone in the building looked at the same pattern I have been flagging for months on my three monitors and decided the appropriate response was an email. The President's son sits on the advisory board of Kalshi. He is an investor in Polymarket. Both are prediction markets. Both saw accounts created days before U.S. military action. One account. I cannot stop thinking about this account. It was called "Burdensome-Mix." It was created in December. On January 2nd, it placed $32,500 on Venezuela's president being removed from power. On January 3rd, Maduro was seized by U.S. special forces. Burdensome-Mix collected $436,000. Then it changed its username. Then it disappeared. One account is a coincidence. But there were six. Six accounts were created on Polymarket in February. All bet on U.S. strikes on Iran by the 28th. When the President confirmed the strikes, the six accounts collected $1.2 million between them. Five of the six never placed another bet. The sixth went on to correctly predict the ceasefire date and made another $163,000. My surveillance system logged all of this. My system logs everything. My system does not have opinions and neither do I. I generate reports. The reports go to committees. The committees meet quarterly. Between meetings, the windows get shorter and the bets get larger. March 9th: 47 minutes. March 23rd: 14 minutes. April 17th: 20 minutes. April 21st: 15 minutes. The window is compressing. In March, you had time to make coffee between the trade and the announcement. By April, you had time to send a text. By summer, at this rate, the trade and the announcement will be the same event. The spokesman said any implication that administration officials are engaged in insider trading is "baseless and irresponsible reporting." Then the White House sent the email again. I have been in compliance for nineteen years. I have seen insider trading run out of strip mall offices by men who could not spell "derivative." I have seen pump-and-dump schemes coordinated over WhatsApp by people who used their real names. I have seen a man try to manipulate soybean futures from a Panera Bread. I have never seen $2.1 billion in perfectly timed trades across five presidential announcements in a single month go uninvestigated. But I have also never seen a compliance system work this beautifully. Every trade flagged. Every report filed. Every committee briefed. Every quarterly meeting attended. Bottled water: sparkling. Minutes: distributed. Zero prosecutions. As long as the flags go up and the cases don't, my performance review says I am meeting expectations. I am meeting expectations. The system is meeting expectations. The $2.1 billion is meeting expectations. The fourteen-year-old law with zero prosecutions is meeting expectations. The left screen moves. The middle screen moves. The right screen stays perfectly, immaculately still. In my field, we call this price discovery.

Everyone should read what the Israeli military did to journalist Amal Khalil today in this minute-by-minute account as the international community watched in horror. First the text messages threatening her then trapping her and a photographer in a house then bombing them then firing on international rescue crews, all with the world watching in real time. There are no words left for the horrors that U.S. political leaders are enabling.

The israelis have opened the sewage water dam into the Wadi Gaza stream, polluting the coast, and in turn the entire Mediterranean Sea

“We just told Zelensky the guarantees won't kick in until he does what russia wants.” This is the Secretary of State of the United States telling the victim of aggression that it must do what the aggressor wants. Never forget. Vote them all out.
