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.
this makes sense when you consider, for example, that israel is one of the rare countries where the same person moves straight from leading its department of education to leading its military (naftali bennett). such a transition would be unheard of in most other countries. imbuing israeli youth with this ideology is a long-term likud play that has been extremely successful.
Wait, so you’re telling me an American citizen was walking down an American street, exercising her freedom of speech, and got surrounded and harassed by a mob waving foreign flags and chanting allegiance to a foreign country because they were offended by her T-shirt?
That is objectively un-American.
the amount of propaganda and culture war psyops where one side is overtly justifying child murder is insane to me. from zionists justifying the murder of palestinian babies to the clancy trial.
even more insane is how it is clearly showing how certain demographics are willing to support child murder for certain ethnic groups or under certain conditions.
child murder is always wrong and unjustifiable. amazing that saying as much is now considered a controversial take among some circles in both the left and right at present.
Netanyahu walked into the United Nations expecting a global audience—and instead got rows of empty seats.
As he took the podium, diplomats from more than 50 countries walked out. An Israeli tally later counted 77 delegations left the chamber when he entered to speak.
Nothing says “greatest ally” quite like delivering a speech to a half-empty room.
Whatever Netanyahu came to say, a significant number of governments had already decided they had no interest in hearing it.
I love that for him.
Gavin Newsom supported Larry Ellison's Paramount/WB merger because he wants to run for President in 2028.
We know what the most powerful lobby in America is. No one has ever won the presidency without support from this lobby.
And Ellison is this lobby's biggest supporter.
The State AGs were on pace to kill the Paramount/Warner Bros by litigation and delay until Gavin Newsom stepped in and turned the tide. Now the Trump loyalist Ellisons will control CNN and HBO. Don't ever, ever forget that Newsom stabbed us all in the back

Donald Trump has now married multiple immigrants.
His wife barely speaks English.
JD Vance literally has Indian children with Indian names with a Hindu wife.
I don't see how their own supporters don't see the blatant hypocrisy in their open bigotry.
Remembering Donna Summer on this day, who was likely a casualty of 9/11.
Donna lived by the towers and reported breathing in toxic dust clouds. She later developed lung cancer and attributed it to the air quality on 9/11 and the days that followed.
Donna died on May 17, 2012, at the age of 63.
