This is your wakeup call.

Anthropic just took down Fable 5. It's over.

Here's the thing tho: no company or government will EVER be able to take away your local models.

There are Opus level models you can run right now on your home GPUs, and nobody can ever stop you from using them

This is only the beginning of events like this. Day 1. More government overreach will happen. This will only keep happening more and more as models get closer to AGI

Become sovereign. Buy your own compute. Before even that becomes illegal

@AnthropicAI A few days ago I had Claude Fable 5 pick out a donut for me. Today it became clear: the US government knows this kind of power cannot fall into the hands of foreign nationals. God help us all.

Trump has just destroyed the US beef industry. No country in their right mind is going to import US beef.

After Trump cut funding for Screwworm monitoring programs, the dangerous flesh-eating parasite has been found in US cattle for the first time since 1966.

Donald Trump's grandfather, Friedrich Trump, was banished from Germany in 1905 because he emigrated to the United States in 1885 without completing his mandatory military service and without notifying the authorities of his departure.
The Trumps ALWAYS dodge military service.

Absolute bombshell. Glenn Greenwald reveals that in 36 US states you cannot get a government contract unless you sign a pledge promising never to boycott Israel. You can boycott American states or any other country but criticizing Israel is strictly forbidden.

72,000 killed in the genocide in Gaza.

🚨 BREAKING: The White House has blocked intelligence agencies from warning law enforcement about terror threats to the US homeland linked to the Iran war.

Read that again.

They started an illegal war. Iran struck Azerbaijan, the Gulf states, Tel Aviv, and Dubai. Sleeper cells were activated. And now the White House is preventing intelligence agencies from telling American law enforcement about threats coming home.

The domestic response force deploys in April.
357 members of Congress voted to hide their own sexual misconduct records.

The Pentagon labeled Anthropic a supply chain risk for refusing to build surveillance tools.

And now they’re blocking terror warnings to local police.

They are not protecting you from the war they started.

They are controlling what you’re allowed to know about it.

In 1937 Winston Churchill said about Palestinians:

"I don’t agree that a dog in a manger has final rights to the manger, even if he was there long before. I don’t admit that a wrong was done to American red Indians or Black people of Australia.

Because a higher-grade race has come in & took their place".

Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir called them grasshoppers who could be crushed.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents shot and killed ANOTHER U.S. citizen… and didn’t disclose the shooting for nearly a year.

The shooting happened March 15, 2025, around 12:40 a.m. on South Padre Island.

According to ICE’s own internal report, Homeland Security Investigations agents were “assisting” local police with traffic control after a crash.

That’s the first red flag.

HSI is a federal investigative arm, they’re not local traffic cops. They were operating under a Border Enforcement Security Task Force umbrella, at night, in a chaotic accident scene… and somehow, that turns into a federal agent firing multiple rounds through a driver’s side window.

Their version?

A blue Ford approaches the controlled area. The driver, 23-year-old Ruben Ray Martinez, “fails to follow instructions.” That leads to agents surround the vehicle, ordering him out, and he accelerates. An agent ends up on the hood, and a supervisor fires multiple shots into the vehicle.

And just like that… another U.S. citizen is dead.

But, let’s break that down…

Agents surrounded the vehicle.

Why?

If this was traffic control, why escalate to ordering him out of his vehicle? Why was deadly force even on the table over a traffic redirection?

Second red flag… the language.

“Failed to follow instructions.”
“Attempted to continue.”
“Accelerated forward.”

We’ve heard this script before with every other DHS shooting.

“Didn’t comply.”
“Boxed in.”
“Officer felt threatened.”
“Vehicle moved.”

Over and over again, DHS frames fleeing, or non-compliant movement, as justification for lethal force.

And here’s the part that should set off all the red flags…

The agent who was allegedly struck?

Was treated for a knee injury, and released.

The U.S. citizen?

Shot multiple times through the window, and died.

So, we’re expected to believe that a vehicle impact, severe enough to justify lethal force, resulted in a minor knee injury… but required unloading rounds into a driver at point-blank range?

Then we have even more red flags…

The FBI isn’t investigating the incident, the local police say they didn’t fire, and the Texas Rangers are “reviewing” it…

And DHS sat on the fact that a federal agent killed a U.S. citizen for nearly a year.

And BOTH men in the vehicle were U.S. citizens.

So, this wasn’t a cartel shootout or a cross-border gun battle, it wasn’t an armed fugitive situation.

It was traffic control at the scene of an accident on South Padre Island.

And if you’ve been paying attention to DHS shootings over the past year, the pattern is impossible to ignore.

Agents escalate first. They SURROUND vehicles, boxing them in, and then issue rapid commands in high-stress situations. The driver then moves, sometimes trying to leave, sometimes confused, sometimes panicked.

Then comes the justification: “He failed to comply.” “We were threatened.” “We were struck.” “We feared for our lives.”

We heard the same language in Renee Good’s case. We heard it in Chicago, in LA…

We keep hearing it whenever ICE or Border Patrol are involved in a shooting.

Movement becomes intent. Noncompliance becomes a deadly threat. Fleeing becomes grounds for lethal force.

Deadly force is supposed to be a last resort, reserved for imminent threats of serious bodily harm. So, why was firing multiple rounds into a driver, the solution during traffic control? Why was the vehicle surrounded in the first place? Why escalate redirection into a confrontation that left someone dead?

And why did it take nearly a year for the public to even know a federal agent killed a U.S. citizen?

If agents can escalate routine encounters into fatal shootings, and rely on the same recycled justifications every time, nothing changes. And if nothing changes, more U.S. citizens will die the same way… surrounded, labeled “noncompliant,” and killed.

Until there are real consequences, there is no reason to believe this will stop.

🚨HOLY FU*KING HELL: A physician’s sworn affidavit just destroyed the official narrative.

He says he ran to the scene, identified himself as a doctor, and BEGGED to help Alex Pretti.

ICE agents blocked him, demanded a physician’s license, and still weren’t performing CPR.

When he finally got through, he found Pretti on his side with multiple gunshot wounds in his back and started CPR himself.

That’s the story: they shot him… then wouldn’t let a doctor treat him.

Hard as it is to accept it, we in Europe must come to terms with the fact that this is precisely the kind of country a significant percentage of the US population wants to have.

Europe cannot be the ally or the partner of this.
