Two new videos out of Traverse City and Cassopolis, Michigan show helicopters running airborne electromagnetic surveys. They’re mapping aquifers to gauge how much groundwater they can claim.

It's pre-ritual for an inbound data center.

Elon Musk:”You get taxed on what you earn, you get taxed on what you buy, and you get taxed on what you own. And what does it get spent on? A bunch of stuff you don’t even agree with.

That’s why we need to reduce the size of government, spend less money and let the people keep a lot more of their hard-earned money.”

[ErikDPrince @realErikDPrince]

Yes. I travel globally and every flight carrying Indians is absolutely clogged with wheelchairs at offload. They either have a diet that makes them weak and feeble or they're just scamming the system. Probably both.

Kimbal Musk explains United States Government wants to pay $1 billion dollars per rocket launch

SpaceX came along and said no, the price is way lower at only $50 million

US Government pushed back and wanted the cost $1 billion dollars per launch

“Government would say, "But we'll pay you $1 billion. We just want you to do it our way." No, but that's the wrong way. You have to do it this way. It's $50 million. We were very happy with that price. The government was like, "No, we don't want that." And we actually couldn't believe it. We're like, "But you must want it for a lower price." Actually, they didn't care that much about price.”

Basically it works like this

Old defense contractors can spend as much as they want and the government will pay that amount plus 10%. That means they have an incentive to make the launches as expensive as possible

SpaceX said here’s a fixed price of $50 million and if we can do it cheaper then we can keep the extra money

This is a much better incentive system because it saves taxpayers a huge amount of money and SpaceX gets rewarded for making launches cheaper

Elon Musk: "In the next 6 to 12 months, we’ll be doing our first implants for vision, where even if somebody is completely blind, we can write directly to the visual cortex."

"Long term, you would have very high resolution and be able to see multispectral wavelengths... you could see in infrared, ultraviolet, radar. It's like a superpower situation."

[The Independent with Scott Atlas @ScottAtlas_IT]

“Lockdowns were not caused by the virus. It was a human decision to impose lockdowns, mandatory testing, irrational, pseudoscientific masks, campus closures, isolation of students…

We know the data. We knew it then. The lockdowns were instituted. They failed to stop the dying. They failed to stop the spread. And they caused massive harm and death. That's the data.”

They told you Obamacare would discipline the insurance giants. Force them to compete. Drive down premiums through the magic of an online marketplace with a clean government website.

Then you watched the website crash in October 2013, and you watched UnitedHealth, Aetna, and Anthem post record profits while your deductible climbed past $6,000.

Here is what the exchanges actually built. The law forced you to buy a product under penalty of the individual mandate, then handed the insurers a fountain of taxpayer cash to make the product look affordable. Premium tax credits flowed straight to the carriers, not to you. In 2017 the federal government paid roughly $42 billion in subsidies, and that money landed in corporate accounts. The cost-sharing reduction payments did the same thing. The risk corridor program promised to backstop insurer losses outright, which is to say it socialized the downside while the executives kept the upside. Guaranteed customers. Guaranteed revenue. A captive market created by statute. Any cartel in history would have killed for terms like that.

Free market economists have a plain name for this arrangement: rent-seeking. When a firm earns its money by extracting subsidies through political channels instead of by serving customers who choose freely, it stops being a business and becomes a tax farmer. The insurers lobbied for the mandate because they understood the arithmetic better than the voters did. America's Health Insurance Plans spent millions backing the bill, then acted shocked when premiums on the individual market more than doubled between 2013 and 2017 in many states. They were not the victims of the law. They wrote the parts that mattered.

Strip away the subsidy and the whole structure collapses, because the prices were never real prices. A real price emerges when a buyer who can walk away meets a seller who can lose the sale. The exchange killed both conditions. You could not walk away without a penalty, and the seller could not lose because Washington covered the gap. This is not a market. The people who keep calling it one are counting on you not noticing who cashes the check.

We’ve been wondering what’s happening, what doesn’t add up?
I think we all know don’t we!
Government intrusion. They are not being your friend, rather they are using a crisis to conform you!
DO NOT COMPLY with rfid tags! It’s overreach and it will be the final blow to freedom!
Without cattle as a free independent individual property you lose your Freedom!!
Tread Extremely Carefully here my friends! They are trying to box us in!🪓

15% of Musk's wealth is $150 billion. The US Federal government spends more than 100% of Musk's wealth every single year on food, housing, and medical care for the poor, and we're only 4% of global population and 0.1% of global poverty. You ain't curing shit with his money

[Wall Street Mav @WallStreetMav]

There are 193 countries in the world. 177 of them receive US taxpayer money from Congress.

177 of 193

Elon is not the problem.
Congress is wasting our money.

We have $39 trillion in debt and a $2 trillion annual budget deficit.

Our foreign aid budget should be $0.00

The conspiracy theorists were right

A new FDA data mining report shows they knew the Covid vaccine had 25 major side effects and they all conspired to hide it from the public

Senator Ron Johnson’s Senate PSI Majority Staff Interim Report has been released on FDA data mining and the March 2021 analysis by Dr. Ana Szarfman

There was a “masking” in the standard FDA system, where signals from Pfizer and Moderna reportedly cancelled each other out

Meaning they lied and hid the side effects from the public and told you it was 100% safe and effective

I have compared the whole list for you:

Neurological & Dysautonomia

• Bell’s palsy (Suppressed Signal)
• Paraesthesia ear (Suppressed Signal)
• Bradykinesia (Suppressed Signal)
• Basal ganglia stroke (Suppressed Signal)
• Cerebral artery occlusion (Suppressed Signal)
• Thalamic infarction
• Sinus rhythm abnormality
• Agonal rhythm
• Diaphragmatic spasm
• Dementia (Pfizer)

Cardiac

• Sudden cardiac death (Suppressed Signal)
• Acute left ventricular failure (Suppressed Signal)
• Diastolic dysfunction (Suppressed Signal)
• Ejection fraction abnormal (Suppressed Signal)
• Hypertensive emergency (Suppressed Signal)
• Blood pressure systolic changes (Suppressed Signal)
• Aortic stenosis (Suppressed Signal)
• Cardiac failure chronic
• Acute myocardial infarction (Pfizer, Moderna)
• Cardiac telemetry abnormal (Pfizer) (Suppressed Signal)

Vascular & Pulmonary

• Pulmonary infarction (Suppressed Signal)
• Embolic stroke
• Ischaemic stroke
• Aortic aneurysm rupture
• May-Thurner syndrome
• Hypomagnesaemia (Suppressed Signal)

Other

• Cholecystitis acute (Suppressed Signal)
• AST/ALT ratio abnormal
• Mastoid disorder
• Cardiac assistance device user
• Brain natriuretic peptide increased
• Asymptomatic COVID-19 (Pfizer) (Suppressed Signal)

The FDA’s standard analytical method allegedly masked “obscured” statistical safety signals in the data

Aka they lied

No, it’s not “Pride Month.” Not for me, and not for millions of others.

You’re welcome to be proud of whatever you want, in any month you like—because this is America. But what started in 1969 as a rebellion against persecution, morphed into a license for public depravity, and then morphed again into a weapon aimed at families and innocent children. Along the way it went from a day, to a week, and then a month and became official, and thereby effectively mandatory for all.

Enough!

If you’re gay and wondering why you are facing resistance now, the answer is that, with few exceptions, most of you didn’t stand up against the expansion and weaponization of “pride,” and the coercion that went with it. In that failure to resist, the gay community compromised any expectation that the rest of us should support “pride” at all, but especially the obscene display of hostility toward civilization and the families of which it is built, and for whom it exists.

If your hackles are raised by the idea that civilization is about families, realize that families are how civilizations persist through time. Not everyone needs to form one, but we all must respect and protect them—It is the foundation of what it means to be civilized.

For the small fraction of gays and lesbians who DID courageously stand up and resist expansion, coercion and the weaponization of “Pride,” I stand with you, and I have all along. But I won’t be celebrating, and I won’t be silent.

It’s not too late to join the voices of reason and to confront the insanity of what “pride” has become.

[Clint Russell @LibertyLockPod]

If you're angry about Elon Musk becoming the first trillionaire after a lifetime of innovation just wait until you hear about how the federal government steals over five trillion dollars from the American tax payer per year.

It took Elon 36 years of work.
In that time the federal government stole 105 trillion dollars in taxes. Not to mention the 40 trillion they took out in debt.

Did they solve world hunger? Did they give you free healthcare? Did they give everyone a house?

No. They blew up a couple million people living near Israel.

But, yeah. Elon is the real problem.

Hello Senator....

This November it will be 50 years since you were first elected to Congress, so we want to be the first to say .

"Happy 50th Anniversary of drawing a taxpayer funded salary."

That is quite an achievement.

In fact - you are 2nd longest-still serving member in Congress.

It has been a long time since you held a private sector job.

AND yes 50 years ago - in 1976 (it was America's Bicentennial that year) - people still punched clocks back then. The world has changed a lot.

During your 50 years in Congress - you watched as the creators and inventors and producers changed the world, creating trillions in new wealth, millions of new jobs and dramatically raising living standards for everyone rich and poor alike.

And for 50 years you have voted to raise taxes and regulate and oversee every move of the private sector.

You have never created or invented or produced. Just taxed and regulated and outraged.

But thank you for using the platform the "TRILLIONAIRE class" has provided to the entire world for free to tell us all how disgusted you are.

We would never know otherwise.

Listen to my take on Ohio’s Voter ID Resolution and accompanied Bill 👇

I SUPPORT and will VOTE YES as a voter to pass the Voter ID Amendment on the ballot in the Nov election

I DONT SUPPORT the fake photo ID bill (SB 472) that prioritizes convenience over verification w/several broad exemptions. We need a DO OVER in ‘27

A helpless little dog died. Someone knows who did this.💔

On May 17, 2026, a group of 4 to 5 children were reportedly seen at the Main Street Boat Ramp in Middleburg, Florida with a young chihuahua-mix dog. The children were throwing the dog around in the water, holding it underwater, and physically abusing it.

A family was able to rescue the dog at the time, but sadly, the dog died a few days later from injuries related to the incident. The children ran off, and the only description available is that they appeared to be between 9 and 13 years old.

Parents, if your children were in the area that day or may know someone who was there, please speak with them. Any information could help identify those responsible.

The case number is 2026-011933.

Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Detective Gary Winterstein at 904-264-6512 or email [email protected].

Anonymous tips can also be submitted through the SaferWatch app or First Coast Crime Stoppers at 888-845-TIPS (8477).

One only has to look at the sheer scale of the planet to see the flaws in the climate agenda.

Combined, every town and city on Earth occupies a mere 3% of the world's landmass. The true driving forces for regional climates rest in the oceans and major landforms - the planet's genuine engine rooms. Oceans cover 72% of the globe to an average depth of 2.3 miles. They contain roughly 86% of the global carbon reservoir and 91% of all retained heat energy; by comparison, our thin atmosphere holds a meager 1 to 2% of each.

Ancient ocean currents give balance to the world's weather, carrying tropical warmth to northern regions in cycles that drive migration, cloud formation and global storms. Landforms guide ocean currents across deep geological time, as tectonic changes to continental land masses reshape the entire world.

The legacy of ignoring this planetary scale of the environment can be seen today in our defaced countryside and industrialised coastal retreats. Sweeping vistas are being vandalised by massive arrays of wind and solar structures, causing immeasurable localised environmental carnage.

It has created a perpetual, asset-swapping loop of renewal and replacement at a staggering, endless cost to national economies, while hollowing out traditional industries and aggressively mining the earth for rare metals like copper and silver.

The back-end of this 'clean' energy loop is an impending hazardous waste crisis. With global solar capacity now officially surpassing 2 Terawatts (TW)—representing between 7 and 8 billion solar panel equivalents—the world is utterly unprepared for the onslaught of disposal.

The International Renewable Energy Agency projects up to 78 million metric tons of solar e-waste by 2050. Because there is little financial incentive for complex recycling, up to 90% of decommissioned panels currently go straight into the ground. When left to fracture in landfills, heavy metals like lead and cadmium can leach into surrounding soil and groundwater.

This will remain the most visible legacy from the Twenty-First Century.

BREAKING: Undercover footage shows the nightmarish warehouse cells where NYC carriage horses are trapped in deplorable conditions when not in dangerous NYC traffic.

These poor animals have a HORRIFIC LIFE of walking the busy streets , in and out of congested traffic in hot and cold temperatures. These horses NEVER touch grass, never graze in pastures and no socialization with other horses .

They have NO pasture for grazing and interacting with other horses as herd animals NEED to be healthy and they are denied proper veterinary care.

THIS HAS TO STOP. TAKE ACTION BELOW TO END THIS ABUSE.

Everyone can call NYC Council Health Committee Chair Lynn Schulman at 718.544.8800 and press 0 to leave a message to ask her to cosponsor and fast- track #RydersLaw Intro 967 to end this criminal horse abuse!

NEW YORKERS: please make a quick call or send an email to your own New York City COUNCIL MEMBER urging them to POST sponsor and pass intro 967,
#RydersLaw.
