[L. David Fairchild @David_Fairchild]

This is very personal for me to share.

My biological mother was a stripper working at a club in downtown Seattle. My biological father was one of her clients. She became pregnant with me while struggling with addiction and used drugs throughout her pregnancy. When I was born, I was immediately taken to the ICU to detox and was eventually placed for adoption.

By God’s grace, I was adopted by two wonderful parents who loved me deeply. I was four months old when they picked me up from the orphanage, and they are the only parents I’ve ever known. I never grew up feeling like something was missing. I never felt some deep longing to find my biological parents. I had a mom and dad who loved me, cared for me, sacrificed for me, and gave me a wonderful home.

Years later, after I got married and we had our first child, my wife encouraged me to learn more about my biological history. If for no other reason, she thought it might be good for the sake of our daughter to know whether there was anything medically or genetically significant in my family history.

So I eventually submitted my DNA to Ancestry. Through that, I discovered a half brother, aunts, cousins, and eventually was put in contact with my biological mother.

We were able to meet.

And when I met her, I got to tell her something I’d wanted to tell her for as long as I could remember: thank you.

Thank you for giving me life.

I got to tell her about the wonderful parents who adopted me. I got to tell her that I’d had a good life. I got to tell her about my wife and my children. I wanted her to know that the baby she carried in the middle of all that chaos became a man with a family, a calling, people he loves, people who love him, and a life for which he is profoundly grateful.

I’ve never been angry with her. Never. Not once.

For years I told my wife and children that if my biological mother ever found me, I knew exactly what I would say. I wouldn’t condemn her. I wouldn’t demand explanations. I’d simply thank her for allowing me to live.

Because without that decision, I wouldn’t have the extraordinary wife I have today. I wouldn’t know the indescribable joy of my children. I wouldn’t have experienced the friendships, ministry, laughter, sorrow, beauty, failures, victories, and ordinary moments that have made up my life. There are people I love who wouldn’t know me, children who wouldn’t exist, and a story that never would’ve been written.

She gave me the chance to live it.

We still stay in contact. We speak every few months, and I genuinely enjoy hearing her stories and learning about her life. Since the day I met her, I’ve prayed that the Lord would bring her to Himself. I still pray that.

I share all of this because lately I’ve been thinking a great deal about the choices parents make. About life and death. About how much hangs in the balance of decisions made in moments of fear, desperation, darkness, or confusion.

And yes, I’ve been thinking about those three little children whose lives were taken by the very person entrusted with protecting them. It’s difficult for me not to think about my own story alongside theirs. Their lives mattered. Their futures mattered. Everything they might’ve become, everyone they might’ve loved, every ordinary Tuesday morning and Christmas morning and wedding and child and friendship that might’ve filled the decades ahead of them mattered.

And it makes me profoundly grateful that my mother chose differently.

So if there’s a mother or father reading this who’s in a dark place and wondering whether your presence matters, whether your decisions matter, or whether the people who depend on you would somehow be better off without you, please hear me: your choices matter more than you can see from where you’re standing.

Choose life.

Don’t make an irreversible decision in the middle of a season that will pass. Don’t allow a moment of darkness to make a permanent decision about a future you can’t yet see.

Trust the Lord. Ask for help.

[Melissa Dougherty @Meldougherty77]

I think a lot of what we're seeing in the Lindsay Clancy case (and MANY others...) comes down to a particular worldview about human nature:

People are inherently good.

The reasoning seems to go something like this: Lindsay is fundamentally good on the inside. So how do we explain the evil that she did? Cuz it can't ultimately be explained by something morally wrong within her. The blame has to be pushed outward. Mental illness. Social pressures. Inadequate systems. A society that didn’t give her what she needed. A demon. Anything but *her.* This helps explain why we see the coddling of horrendous evil.

But there's a major problem with this reasoning. Because if human beings are inherently good, then who created all of these supposedly corrupt, oppressive, and dysfunctional systems?

That would be humans.

The biggest hindrance to repentance and salvation is understanding our need for a savior because we're *not* good. Jesus saved his harshest words for the Pharisees, not because they were religious. But because they were self-righteous hypocrites. They thought they were "good people".

But the one who is justified before God is the one who won't even show their face to Him, and instead begs God for mercy because they are a sinner.

This is horrifying and every American needs to hear this

California resident exposes what’s really going on with Flock Cameras in America

“I want to be clear what these cameras actually are, and I say that with somebody with 20 years of experience in IT. I've served as the chief network architect for Fortune 500 companies, I've designed data centers, and today I work on cloud infrastructure for one of the largest loan origination companies in the country. I'm not speculating on how this technology works. I've read their patents and I know how it works.

Flock advertises these cameras as simple license plate readers. But their own patents tell a different story.

They're AI-powered surveillance machines that capture every passing vehicle and person and transmit that data to a private corporate cloud, making it queryable by a multitude of state and federal agencies. The city of Corona does not control that database, and Corona residents have no public record rights against a private company's servers. Our daily movements are being harvested by a $7.5 billion corporation, that only answers to venture capital investors, not to us. Flock did not reach that valuation on their per-camera subscription fees. That math doesn't add up

The city council should also understand who they're doing business with. Flock CEO was asked whether the company had any federal contracts. He said no. That was a lie.

Public records revealed that Flock had been secretly running a pilot program giving the US Border Patrol access to local police camera data without the knowledge of the cities that paid for the cameras.

Now consider who's behind the company and where your data flows. Flock integrates directly with Palantir, a data fusion platform, with a $30 million contract with ICE. Peter Thiel, the founder of Palantir, is also one of Flock's primary investors. These are not separate companies with separate agendas. They are connected actors that are building a connected infrastructure.

Palantir's own CEO stated publicly just this month that his technology is being used as a political instrument, designed to reduce the political power of certain voters. And that's the ecosystem that our Corona cameras are feeding into.

We're not anti-police at all. We're against mass surveillance of innocent residents by a company with a documented record of deception, built by investors with a stated political agenda. We're asking the City Council to start auditing the queries made against Flock's database, to disclose any data sharing agreements, and to take a vote to cancel the Flock safety contract”

I looked more into this and he is 100% right

Patents describe broader object detection, including tracking people and pedestrians, patents like US11416545B1. The system uses a centralized cloud database for nationwide queries

Data goes to Flock’s private cloud, AWS-based, encrypted. Nationwide lookup is common, 75%+ of customers are enrolled enabling cross-jurisdictional searches. Residents have no direct public records access to the corporate servers.

This creates a mass surveillance network feeding a private company’s infrastructure

If you ask me this is laying the infrastructure for a mass surveillance network in America. We are being lied to. Cancel all contracts nationwide

🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting after a Virginia mother of FIVE has been CONVICTED of a crime, sentenced to 6 months in jail, and placed on the CHILD ABUSE REGISTRY for 7 years...

...because she let her 5-year-old son walk half a mile to the pond in their GATED community to collect goose feathers.

Yes, you read that right...

Her name is Karyann Parkinson and she is probably the furthest thing from an "unfit mother" you will ever meet.

She has a degree in family science. She was a family life educator. She spent three years as a live-in behavioral specialist caring for 35 troubled girls. Her husband is a family therapist.

They moved to Virginia so she could go to William & Mary LAW SCHOOL.

This past June, eight months pregnant and studying for the bar, she took her boy Sam on their usual bike ride to the pond.

When they got home, he asked to walk back for more feathers.

Just a half-mile walk home on a sidewalk with ten feet of grass between him and the road.

Two crosswalks he'd used hundreds of times, inside a gated neighborhood with 24-hour security and a 25 mph speed limit.

She said yes, and she made lunch.

A stranger saw a kid walking and called security.

The guard marched Sam home and told this 5-year-old that his mommy did something wrong

His mother says it "scared the crap out of him."

Then the guard called the cops. Then the cop called backup.

Within minutes: THREE police cars. Three officers. A security vehicle. Two CPS workers. All at one mother's front door.

For a kid walking home on a sidewalk

CPS told her husband, "a 5-year-old child can never be unsupervised."

Never. Not for one minute. Not in a gated community. Not on a sidewalk.

That is the government's position on YOUR children.

They put her on the child abuse and neglect registry.

Seven years.

They charged her with "contributing to the delinquency of a minor."

A charge meant for parents who let their kids do drugs and skip school.

Last week, a judge convicted her and she got six months in jail, suspended and a permanent criminal record.

She can likely never volunteer at her kids' school again.

She may never be allowed to practice law.

What are we doing here????

Kids used to walk to school ALL THE TIME.

I used to ride bikes with my friends until till the streetlights came on... no one ever knew where I was and it didn't matter because this WAS AMERICA.

Now a five-year-old can't walk to a pond without three squad cars and a criminal conviction for his mother???

We've criminalized childhood...

Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley says Americans can’t outright ban Flock cameras because they are ‘for our safety’

“I value my privacy, my family values their privacy, my employees value their privacy, but what we're talking about is safety as well”

“So I think when people talk about just one of these, privacy or safety, they're prioritizing the wrong thing. And what we have to prioritize as a country is compromise — when I think about legislation that calls for an outright ban, that's like banning vehicles”

Actually no, it’s nothing like banning vehicles. This is banning a mass surveillance network that extends far beyond license plate readers. Flock is putting up people tracking AI powered cameras in parks, playgrounds, trails and many other places

Flock is mass surveillance without a warrant

[Jason Bassler @JasonBassler1]

Stop saying stupid stuff like:

"If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear."

And start saying instead:

"A free country doesn't track innocent citizens."

You could be anything.

Quit being a simp for the surveillance state.

Can we give Lindsay Clancy's money to Emma Schols?

Emma Schols, a Swedish mother, was 31 and alone with her six children when she woke to smoke and cries. The living room was ablaze. Barely clothed, she ran repeatedly into the flames to rescue every single child.

All six emerged unharmed. Emma suffered burns over 93 percent of her body.

Doctors doubted her survival; she spent months in hospital, including weeks in a coma and on a respirator, plus dozens of surgeries.

When she awoke, her first question was whether her children lived.

[Dr. Abby Johnson @AbbyJohnson]

“Women just don’t kill their children like that.”

I keep hearing women say this while discussing the Lindsay Clancy case.

But the rallying of support around a woman who strangled her children should not surprise us.

For more than 50 years, our culture has insisted that women should have the right to end the lives of their own children…deliberately, legally, and with the full-throated defense of much of the public.

So perhaps the shocking part isn’t that people can find a way to defend a mother who killed her children.

Perhaps the shocking part is that we still pretend we haven’t spent decades teaching women that, under the right circumstances, killing your own child can be justified.

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

The Supreme Court may take down Flock Cameras and the entire surveillance state being built because it violates the 4th Amendment

The Supreme Court just issued a major ruling that strengthens the Fourth Amendment protections that Flock has been exploiting

“On the heels of the recent Supreme Court ruling on geofencing and how that violates the Fourth Amendment, a US district judge has now ruled that tower dump warrants also violates the Fourth Amendment. As a reminder, the Supreme Court ruled that your location data is protected by the Fourth Amendment.

That means the police cannot just pull your phone information via GPS without a warrant because it's considered a search, citing Carpenter v. United States

This Mississippi judge is essentially calling out police for using a loophole to still grab similar data from people and is trying to close it by saying that these tower dump warrants are too general because it still grabs your location data, which is therefore subject to probable cause and more specific warrants because it's considered a search which is protected by the Fourth Amendment.

The Supreme Court's ruling could potentially be setting Flock up for violating the same thing because Flock had previously leaned on Carpenter v. United States to claim that they are constitutionally protected and allowed to surveil and store people's data the way that they do.

But that was before the Supreme Court's recent ruling.”

“As much as there seems to be an uptick in surveillance systems and the digital panopticon being built around us, it also seems like there is a growing opposition towards all of this, and it seems to be quite effective”

Flock even on their own website sites Carpenter v. United States as justification to why they are constitutionally allowed to operate and collected their digital data

But now the Supreme Court is expanding digital data protection rights

Ban Flock Cameras from America

[The Realistic Nurse @TheRealisticRN]

🚨 BREAKING: This week the American Academy of Pediatrics — the group that shapes the childhood vaccine schedule — told the country it's "neutral."

Their words: "we go by science, not politics."

So I pulled their tax records. Here's who actually pays them..

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) runs on ~$138 MILLION a year.

Its corporate "partners" — $50,000+ donors — include the vaccine makers themselves:
Pfizer, Merck, Moderna, Sanofi.

Source: their own IRS Form 990

On one AAP COVID-19 vaccine policy, the science outlet Undark found 9 of 16 committee members had taken money from vaccine manufacturers.

The published guideline said: "no potential conflicts."

9 of 16. They wrote "none."

And this isn't unique to the AAP — it's the pattern.

Peer-reviewed, JAMA Internal Medicine (2018): 57% of authors of clinical guidelines for high-revenue drugs had financial ties to the makers — and 1 in 4
payments were undisclosed.

The science documents the conflict of interest.

The AAP doesn't just take the money — it lobbies.

It keeps a full-time, four-person federal lobbying team and reported ~$789,000 in lobbying in a single quarter of 2026.

Ask why a "neutral" group of children's doctors needs its own lobby shop.

Same playbook, different drug.

AAP's 2023 childhood obesity guidelines urged doctors to consider weight-loss drugs for kids. 10 of the authors had taken money from those drug companies.

Disclosed in the guideline? No.

In 2011 the Gates Foundation paid the AAP $1,419,200 — in the Foundation's own words — "to organize and facilitate immunization education and advocacy
efforts among pediatricians."

Paid to advocate.

Why it matters: in 1986, Congress shielded vaccine makers from most lawsuits.

Since then a federal program has paid ~$5.5 BILLION for vaccine injuries (HRSA).

The makers are protected. The group promoting the schedule takes their money.

The question every parent deserves answered: is the group that calls itself "neutral" being paid by the companies that profit from the schedule?

The documents say yes.

If you want the documents mainstream accounts won't show you, follow
@therealisticrn.

I'm a nurse. I bring receipts, not fear.
