We are currently living in the surveillance state that Americans were jokingly saying that Chinese citizens would be living under.

America has moved so far right that “your taxes should pay for your healthcare” is considered radical, but “your taxes should pay for another country’s bombs” is considered moderate

big alcohol lobbying to ban THC edibles while still selling their THC drinks is like if restaurants paid to make groceries illegal

Hard to even process -- a president selling market-moving information to banks and wealthy investors in advance of everyone else, and personally pocketing hundreds of millions of dollars from it. This alone is more worthy of impeachment than 100 Watergate cover-ups.

Mamdani is showing Americans how much they’ve been propagandized by our government.

They tell you Flock cameras are there to fight crime.

So I pulled the actual police logs from my new favorite website (haveibeenflocked . com). 233 million searches that they have been able to get via FOIA requests and here's what "fighting crime" actually looks like:

> 84% had no case number at all
> The most common reason a cop typed in the box? Blank, nothing
> Only about 9% were even tagged as a real crime.
> "Test" and "training" show up as reasons, run on real people's cars
> The FBI and Homeland Security were wired into local camera networks your town never signed off on.

So what is Flock?

FLOCK: 100,000+ plate cameras bolted to poles across America. They read your plate everywhere you drive and never forget.

NOVA: Flock's AI that turns your plate into you. Your name, address, family, everyone you know, in seconds, no warrant.

SIGNALTRACE: a competitor's tool that tracks the Bluetooth off your phone, your AirPods, your watch. Doesn't even need your plate.

Then I followed the money and the lead investor behind Flock also funds an Israeli company that can hack cameras and change the footage. Another lead investor backs a 911 app that flips on your phone's camera and mic. Trace it all the way back and you hit a former Israeli prime minister and Jeffrey Epstein's money.

Full article with photos and receipts is on my Substack now (link in bio). Enjoy!

Texas just made weed a felony after over 70% of voters voted to legalize it. Is this what we call a democracy when the representatives of a state will openly defy the will of voters because incarceration rates went down so much and prisons lost money? Texas is a fucking republican-ran hellhole.

@_fat_ugly_rat_ He’s not a mid candidate, he is doing the correct thing, there is an organization doing coordinated work that is failing him and TX Dems as a whole right now

Last month I moved to send an airport Flock contract back to committee, which council voted AGAINST 4-10, claiming that Flock cameras help *solve* crimes. New analysis by @atlanta_press shows otherwise!

My only revision to this statement is that clearly the Hundred Years War was predicated on no defense and only attacking because its 3-4 now

[Billy Poer @ThePoerDemocrat]

If they restarted the Hundred Years War, France might just give it all up they way they’re giving up points right now

Hinojosa's top donors: https://t.co/yemoQZSPSh

At first glance, Hinojosa had to have raked it in on small dollar donations in order to hit $6.1 million raised with this topline list. And given that her report is >28k pages long, she probably did.
