You either want @jaredkushner arrested for treason.
Or you support a foreign spy actively compromising the White House and selling that access to foreign nations and doing lord knows what else.
There’s no more in between on that one.
The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. https://t.co/8AyV60gg1X
Whitney Webb is explaining how Palantir was built. It is the same story Danny Casolaro died chasing, and Israel and Robert Maxwell are in the middle of it.
Casolaro was found dead in a Martinsburg hotel bathtub on August 10, 1991. Wrists slashed a dozen times. Ruled a suicide. He had told his brother that if he turned up dead, it would not be an accident. The files for the book he called The Octopus were gone.
What he was tracking was not one scandal. It was a network. The Inslaw/PROMIS theft. Iran-Contra. BCCI. The October Surprise allegations. Arms and intel cutouts like Cabazon-Wackenhut. A bankruptcy judge had already found the Justice Department obtained Inslaw's enhanced PROMIS by "trickery, fraud and deceit." That ruling was later tossed on jurisdiction, not on the facts. The allegation that stuck was that the software was backdoored and sold or given to foreign governments so intelligence services could read the databases it sat on. Israel was at the front of that list.
Webb's Palantir history is that pattern, a decade later, with some of the same people.
John Poindexter was the highest-ranking Reagan official indicted over Iran-Contra. After 9/11 he was put in charge of DARPA's Total Information Awareness, a dragnet built to fuse commercial and government data and predict crime and terror before they happened. Congress defunded it in 2003 after the backlash. The same year Peter Thiel incorporated Palantir. Richard Perle introduced Thiel and Alex Karp to Poindexter. Perle had already been caught in the 1970s passing classified material to the Israeli embassy, and he later had deep ties to Netanyahu's first government. Karp has said the CIA was the intended client from the start. In-Q-Tel, the CIA's venture arm, was an early backer. Palantir engineers were at Langley every other week in the early years.
PROMIS was the 1980s case-management system allegedly turned into a spy tool. The claim Casolaro was chasing, and that Webb has documented, is that Robert Maxwell helped move the bugged version. A trapdoor was planted so Israeli intelligence could read any database the software touched, and Maxwell was the salesman who carried it to governments and institutions abroad. Palantir Gotham is the 2000s version of the same job. Stitch the databases. Surface the hidden links. Sell pre-crime as predictive policing. Same function. Private letterhead. So the constitutional fight Congress already won does not have to be refought.
The part most people miss is at the end of the clip. Webb says CIA CIO Alan Wade, who helped shape the early Palantir product and had been inside the TIA world, teamed with Christine Maxwell on a homeland-security program called Chiliad. Christine is Robert Maxwell's daughter. The Maxwell family did not stop at Ghislaine. Robert Maxwell was tied to the PROMIS distribution story. His daughter shows up later on pre-crime software with a CIA official out of the same surveillance program Palantir was built to replace.
So the chain runs like this. Stolen DOJ software in the 1980s. Robert Maxwell and Israeli intelligence on the backdoored version. Iran-Contra figures. Then the same Iran-Contra figure running TIA. Then a Maxwell daughter and a TIA-linked CIA official on pre-crime software. Then Palantir as the scaled private version, introduced by a man already tied to Israeli intelligence channels.
Casolaro was trying to map the first half. He never got to the second half. Palantir did not exist yet. His files disappeared. The architecture did not.
The Octopus was a thesis about a standing network that builds surveillance software, routes it through private cutouts, and uses Iran-Contra-era operators and Israeli intelligence partners to keep it off the books. PROMIS was tentacle one. Robert Maxwell was the courier. TIA was the failed government version. Palantir is tentacle two.
The software Casolaro died investigating, after it learned to survive a congressional ban by becoming a company.
My book on the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, published in 2022, ended with the point that intelligence assets engaged in blackmail, like Epstein, are no longer needed (and thus became expendable) because the surveillance state can retrieve blackmail directly from your devices or plant incriminating material on them.
Four years later, they are just saying it out in the open.
In light of the revelations about the multiple advance notices Netanyahu received about Hamas planning a major attack on Israel shortly before Oct. 7, it's worth re-visiting the question Charlie Kirk asked, one to which no answer has ever been provided:
So to recap:
- Israel knew about Oct 7
- Israel lets it happen
- Israel Apache helicopters maximize destruction & death
- Israel lies about war crimes and mass rape to manufacture consent for a genocide
- Israel buries all evidence
- Israel launches an ethnic cleansing war
- Israel cuts off water, food and supplies
- Israel blocks all foreign media & international oversight
- Israel targets media and medical staff and infrastructure
- Israel launches worldwide silencing propaganda campaign
- Israel expands land grab and illegal invasion into West Bank and Lebanon
- Israel pulls U.S. into illegal invasion of Iran
- Israel confirms plans for Gaza final solution
There you have it. Anthropic's CEO said it: The murder of more than 100 schoolgirls in Minab targeted by Anthropic's CLAUDE "is a use case that doesn't even violate our red lines." Time to rise up against these technofeudal war criminals.
So Tulsi just said that the US intel community doesn’t even know where its own biolabs are or what they’re doing…
That’s the state of the US government
Spencer Pratt got 0 out of 24,000 votes in a late night LA ballot drop.
0/24,000
A guy getting around 30% support got 0 out of 24,000.
Astronomically small probability of happening.
Impossible.
California no longer even hides it.
Doors need to be kicked in.
Israel planted explosives in a school for disabled children at dawn today in South Lebanon and blew it up.
Not a military target.
A school for disabled children — perhaps the only one in the country.
In what universe is this considered “self-defense”?
Let me get this straight
Peter Thiel was an early Silicon Valley donor to Trump, who currently sits as President of the United States
He hand picked JD Vance, who goes on to become VP and is still in that position
His friend and former cofounder, Elon Musk, is the richest man on the planet and is about to do the biggest IPO ever in history
His fund was one of the earliest backers of Space X, amongst many other successful investments
Literally everything he wished for has happened. Everyone he wanted in power is currently in power.
But, he is now leaving the country to move to Argentina. What am I missing here?
Not all of us can cook the books at a software company during the 90s dot-com bubble, sell it for $4b based on fraud, wipeout $2b in shareholder value in one day while selling our own stock at peak, get fired within six months and see our company resold for just $27M a year later
This is so insane. A evil genocidal country went and illegally kidnapped peaceful protesters on international waters and now they are parading them around like cattle and NOT A SINGLE major news network is covering it.
Reminder that Jesse Hughes, the lead singer of the Eagles of Death Metal, was basically unpersoned for saying that something was up with the security at the Bataclan on the night of the massacre.
This is indefensible: Spraying glyphosate over wild lands is ecocide, and toxic to humans, of course. But there is one upside: It allows us to see the full corruption of our system, which pretends to be preoccupied with our health, even as it poisons the world behind our backs.
AOC will not team up with MTG to sanction Israel because of identity politics
But she teamed up with Ted Cruz and Tom Cotton to call for more sanctions on China
🚨 HOLY CRAP. A FOREIGN PRIME MINISTER just told American media YOUR war isn't over, and casually floated sending YOUR sons into Iran to grab uranium.
NETANYAHU: "It's not over."
"You go in and you take it out."
REPORTER: With what? Special forces from Israel? From the United States?
"I'm not going to talk about military means, but what President Trump has said to me, I want to go in there."
"I think it can be done physically."
REPORTER: How long?
"I'm not going to give a timetable."
So a foreign leader sets the mission, dodges the means, refuses a timeline, and YOUR kids fight it. YOUR taxes fund it. YOUR dollar inflates for it.
This is Israel dictating YOUR foreign policy. Reject it. 🟧🦍
