BREAKING: Trump drained the reflecting pool and it DID reveal damage... tire marks.

[Anne P. Mitchell Esq @annepmitchell]

WOW!! I HAVE THE *FULL* INVESTIGATION INTO WHAT HAPPENED IN THE PRISON LEADING UP TO AND INCLUDING EPSTEIN'S DEATH

by @annepmitchell - zero hyperbole and 100% facts in plain English about what's going on with this administration and the law

Yesterday I shared with you the 1953 Trust which Epstein executed, along with his will, just a couple of days before he died. And I told you about the phone call that he made just hours before he died, and I told you that call was not only *not* to his mother as he had claimed to the prison personnel (in fact she had been dead for years), but it was to the primary beneficiary of the 1953 Trust, his girlfriend Karyna Shuliak. AND I told you how in the Trust, Shuliak was given, among other things, the diamond ring and 48 loose diamonds that we had discussed finding last week! AND that it turned out he was planning to marry her!

Finally, in terms of refreshing your memory, I told you that the DOJ had "invited" Shuliak to tell them what was said in that phone call, and that she "declined", but that her lawyer told the DOJ that while his client did not want to talk to them (imagine that) that the lawyer could share that they talked about "books, music, and hygiene while incarcerated", and how the press surrounding Epstein had "gotten crazy".

Well, as a result of all of my digging and investigating, yesterday I came across the full, unredacted report that the DOJ Office of Inspector General (OIG) produced based on their investigation.

Some of you may have seen some of it before, but *now* we know so much more, so that it brings some of the content and conclusions into context. (And yes, I'm including the full 128-page report for Notes from the Front members.)

I want to focus on two things in the report, although of course all of it is ..interesting, to tie it in to our previous discussions: Shuliak, and the "flash of orange" on the security camera video.

For some reason they don't use Shuliak's name at all, anywhere in the report, but rather refer to her as "Individual 1".

And yet, in the executive summary at the top, they say "Although Epstein said he was calling his mother, in actuality he called someone with whom he allegedly had a personal relationship."

Clearly in the executive summary they are identifying Shuliak, even if not by name, while in the full report they sanitize it to "Individual 1".

It's almost as if one person wrote the executive summary, and another wrote the detailed report, and .. .could it be?.. that one hand at the DOJ didn't know what the other was doing?

Anyways, in the full report, under the heading "Epstein is Allowed to Make an Unmonitored Telephone Call on August 9", the details about the phone call take up three full pages, and then the section detailing their *investigation* into the phone call, headed "MCC New York Staff Allowed Epstein to Place an Unmonitored Telephone Call on August 9", take up the better part of two more pages, and that is where we are going to focus our attention.

That section starts out saying "The OIG’s investigation and review revealed that on the night before his death, Epstein placed an unrecorded, unmonitored telephone call using a non-Inmate Telephone System line from p.m. to p.m. Other than an MCC New York call log, no other BOP records exist regarding this unmonitored call, including the identity of the person Epstein called or a summary of the conversation."

Then there is some language about the rules and procedures around this call that were *supposed* to be followed, but weren't, and then the investigation goes on to say "The Unit Manager told the OIG that he escorted Epstein from his attorney visit to the shower area of the SHU, where he connected a telephone into an unrecorded legal line and dialed the phone number provided by Epstein. The Unit Manager said that when a male answered the call, he handed the telephone to Epstein, and then left MCC New York for the day because his shift had ended."

Wait a darned minute. A *male* answered the phone? That means that there was a man with Shuliak, and he answered the phone and then handed it to her. This may mean nothing - or it may mean that, for example, the man who answered was one of Epstein's attorneys (making his using the 'legal line' seem legit) BUT clearly the man was *not* Epstein's mother (which is to whom the Unit Manager was led to believe Epstein was making the call). We need to know who that man is, and what he knows! Because I’m guessing that this was a prearranged call, and he knows something.

The more you dig into this stuff, even if it clears up one mystery, it leads to three more mysteries.

Which is my cue to turn to the "flash of orange".

I'm sure you all know that the security cameras (air quotes) malfunctioned (/air quotes) the night that Epstein died. But one camera caught something, which has been reported as, and our transcript of Tova Noel's testimony (I sent you that two days ago) confirms, "A flash of orange can be seen going up the stairs of L tier. Inmates are currently on lockdown, it is possible someone is carrying inmate linen or bedding up the stairs."

But what you may not have heard is that Epstein hung himself, or was hung, by a strip of *orange cloth*.

(In fact the right-hand image in the screenshot attached to this post, which are two of the photos contained in the report, is of the cloth that was around his neck.)

Remember when I said that the more you dig into this stuff the more it leads to more, not fewer, mysteries?

I'm thinking that it's possible that the "flash of orange" was someone bringing the orange cloth to Epstein's cell, either to hang him or so he could hang himself.

(WARNING: The report includes a description of the position of the body when they found it, which I found fascinating and think points to his having... help... in doing it, but that's just me.)

As I've said elsewhere, when you add *everything* up on the timeline, including his executing the will and the trust, and then his calling Shuliak, who was the prime beneficiary of that trust, the next day and right before he died - it's pretty clear that Epstein *knew* he was going to die in the very near future, one way or another. In fact I think that it's likely that he knew when he spoke with Shuliak that it was going to happen before the next morning. As I keep saying - he was an asset (that much is clear from that 3-hour secret recording of him, Ehud Barak, and Larry Summers), and when you are an asset who gets captured you either take yourself out or someone will do it for you, because you know too much. Those "asset bites a cyanide capsule" scenes in the movies are based on reality.

There is of course a lot more in this report, and I look forward to what you Notes from the Front citizen sleuths find! If you're not a Notes from the Front citizen sleuth, I hope that you'll join us in this one!

If a company wanted to track you across every site tomorrow, they wouldn't need cookies. They'd need one thing you can't delete.

It is called browser fingerprinting. And once you understand it, you cannot unsee it.

Here is how it works.

Every time you open a website, your browser quietly hands over dozens of tiny details about your machine. Your screen size. Your timezone. Your installed fonts. Your graphics card. The exact way your device renders a hidden image. None of it identifies you on its own.

Stacked together, it does. The combination is so specific it points to one person with over 90% accuracy. You.

No cookie required. No login. No click. The tracking starts the instant the page loads.

This is the part that should bother you:

→ It survives incognito mode
→ It survives clearing your cookies
→ It survives clearing your cache
→ It can survive a full browser reinstall

You did everything you were told to protect your privacy. None of it touched the thing actually following you.

Cookies were easy to kill. That is exactly why advertisers and data brokers moved on. As privacy laws made cookies unreliable, fingerprinting got more common, not less, because there is no off switch the average person can find.

Here is how you fight back.

→ Firefox blocks known fingerprinting scripts by default. Turn it on.
→ uBlock Origin kills the tracking scripts before they run. Free.
→ Canvas Blocker feeds them randomized fake data instead of your real signature.
→ The Tor Browser makes every user look identical, so you blend into the crowd.

One warning. Do not pile on twenty obscure extensions thinking more is better. A weird, rare setup makes your fingerprint MORE unique, not less. Stick to widely used tools so you look like everyone else.

Want to see your own fingerprint right now? EFF built a free site called Cover Your Tracks. It shows you exactly how identifiable you are in about ten seconds.

Most people will read this and do nothing.

The ones who act stop being the easiest person in the room to follow.

The reflecting pool is now green, the color of all the money wasted on it. Painting the bottom has apparently heated the water and accelerated algae growth. Pure Genius.

So let me get this straight…

We’re now being told JD Vance used the Situation Room to lead “war room” meetings about the Epstein fallout.

Allegations of Trump sexually abusing minors?

I thought the Situation Room was for actual wars.

Trump keeps telling everyone to move on while the Epstein story keeps getting bigger and closer to home.

Then BOOM.

We’re in a war with Iran.

A war nobody voted for, nobody wanted, and few can clearly explain.

Straits of Hormuz closed.
Gas prices skyrocket.
The entire news cycle changed overnight.

Funny how quickly Epstein disappeared from the headlines.

You can outrun a news cycle.

The print and legacy news media is a joke.

You can’t outrun Epstein forever.

WE are watching.
WE are not stupid.
WE are united in the Tired of the Bullshit party.

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

In the 1990s, Canadian ecologist Suzanne Simard made a groundbreaking discovery that challenged everything we thought we knew about how forests work. While studying managed forests in British Columbia, she noticed something puzzling: when birch trees were removed to promote the growth of valuable Douglas firs, the firs did not flourish as expected, they actually struggled and grew more slowly.

Determined to understand why, Simard traced the movement of nutrients using radioactive carbon isotopes. What she found was astonishing. Trees were actively sharing resources through vast underground fungal networks known as mycorrhizae. These delicate, thread-like fungi connect the roots of different trees across the forest floor, forming a complex web that allows the exchange of carbon, water, nutrients, and even chemical signals, sometimes between entirely different species.

She discovered that older, larger trees often serve as central "hubs" or "mother trees," supporting younger saplings by redistributing vital resources and helping the entire ecosystem remain resilient. When these key trees are removed, the underground network weakens, and the health of the remaining forest declines.

Simard’s research overturned the traditional Darwinian view of forests as battlegrounds of ruthless competition. Instead, she revealed a far more sophisticated reality: forests operate as highly cooperative systems where trees communicate, support one another, and even warn neighboring trees about threats like drought, disease, or insect attacks.

What appears to the human eye as a silent, still forest is, in truth, a vibrant, interconnected living network, built not on isolation and rivalry, but on deep connection and mutual aid.

My toddler was falling asleep last night as his dad texted me “Do we need anything from the store?”

So I asked my son. “Do you need anything from the store?” He’s 2.

He replied “I need a widdle tiny lawn mower.” I relayed the message to his dad.

“He needs a widdle tiny lawn mower.”

45 min later, Dad walked into our bedroom and set down a kid’s lawn mower next to the bed.

While everyone argues about data centers and water, California almonds quietly use up to 80x more, AND the whole industry only survives because of trucked-in "livestock"...

Every February, beekeepers transport nearly every commercial honeybee colony in the United States (around 2.8 million hives) to California to pollinate almonds.

It's the largest "managed-pollination" event on the planet. Almonds cover 1.4 million acres and need bees to pollinate so they set nuts.

So why do we need to truck them in? Well, almonds are grown in huge monoculture orchards, meaning the native bee species are all but eradicated...there's nothing for them to eat most of the year.

To fix the problem WE created, we ship in bees from across the country. I interviewed the creator of the 2019 documentary The Pollinators, which followed this migration and brought a lot of this story into public view.

First off, honeybees aren't native to North America. They were brought from Europe in the 1600s. The "bee crisis" you read about, with national colony losses around 55% last year and some commercial keepers losing 60 to 70% in a single season, is happening to a managed, introduced species.

It's a livestock collapse driven by long-haul transport, pesticide exposure at bloom, hives packed together spreading mites and viruses, and a monoculture diet.

Meanwhile, North America has roughly 4,000 native bee species. Most are solitary, don't make honey, don't sting, and quietly pollinate everything from squash to blueberries.

Research out of UC Davis and UC Berkeley has been direct about this: when blue orchard bees, bumble bees, and other natives forage alongside honeybees in almond orchards, fruit set goes UP, not down.

The presence of wild bees changes how honeybees move through the trees and makes the honeybees themselves more effective pollinators.

So the fix isn't more honeybee hives. It's hedgerows, wildflower strips, bare ground for ground-nesting bees, and uncut field edges, aka habitat for the natives who were doing this work long before we started trucking in livestock.

Honeybees are livestock. Native bees are the wildlife, and we should be planting to include them in our agriculture.

I hosted @cspanwj this morning and had a three-time Donald Trump voter who called in to share this:

"It's hard for me to say this, but I think, if i can open up about it in public that it might help others, I wanted to believe Trump was the real deal for a long time, even though I had doubts because I knew enough about his business history to think otherwise. But now I regret my support for him and I should've known better."

"He's the worst president we've ever had and he's the most corrupt president we've ever had. I know it's hard, it took me a while to be able to say that. Very difficult when you commit yourself to believing in somebody."

Fun fact: Bonobo monkeys, who we share 98.7% of our dna with, are matriarchal and very peaceful. There has only been one record of them killing one of their own and it was a group of females beating the brakes off a male monkey for touching an infant. In light of the Epstein files, I do believe it is time we start taking notes ladies.

Coastal cities are replacing concrete seawalls with oyster reefs. The oysters are better at the job.

Seawalls begin to degrade the minute they're installed. Waves chew them up, storms crack them, and they have to be repaired, replaced, and rebuilt forever.

An oyster reef doesn't break down, it actually grows. The oysters stack, reproduce, and fuse into living rock that gets stronger every year.

A mature reef can cut incoming wave height by up to 83%. It traps sediment, rebuilds the shoreline behind it, and shelters fish, crabs, and shrimp in the process.

A hectare of oyster reef provides up to $85,000 a year in shoreline protection. Concrete costs over a million dollars a hectare to build and only gets weaker.

Oysters were the answer the whole time.

Netanyahu sent his son to campaign for Orbán. Netanyahu sent a personal video to Orbán's rally. Orbán just lost by 14 points, the biggest landslide in Hungarian democratic history.

Why did Netanyahu care so much?

Because Orbán was the only EU leader who vetoed sanctions on Israel. Every single time. That veto is gone. The ICC withdrawal is reversed.
The EU firewall is dead.

Israel's own Ynet News headline, two days ago: "If Orbán falls, Israel could lose its EU firewall." He didn't just fall.
He was buried.
