A nobody, pale blue dot inhabitant. My one claim to fame is being blocked by #washeduphasbeen James Woods😂

[Lauri Funk🇺🇸🦅🇺🇦 @laurifunk]

#washeduphasbeen RealJamesWoods blocked me for calling him out on his kneejerk retweets without investigation/fact-checking. loving how this just confirms his status as a #washeduphasbeen since he has reacted to a nobody like me😂🤣

since becoming president again, Trump has promised:
-$5000 stimulus checks via "DOGE dividend"
-$2000 stimulus checks via "tariff dividend"
-$1000+ checks via "savings" from expiring ACA subsidies
-$5000 "dividend" if Rs win midterms
no checks have been issued

BREAKING🚨 Texas just MOVED its first maternal death report since Roe fell from September 1 to December 1, so voters won't see how many women DIED under the abortion ban before they vote.

[James Tate @JamesTate121]

The Constitution grantees us a postal service. It does not mention or state that it must make a profit. SERVICE is part of the name and republicans want to sabotage it so they can privatize and control it come voting time.

I figured out what they are doing with the dollar. They are swapping it. Push the old one out, pull a new one in, and the new one hurts Americans and pays the elite every time it moves.

Here is how it works:

Step 1: Weaken the physical dollar abroad through Tariffs, Trade wars. Create so much friction that countries stop using the dollar in trade. They move to local currencies, gold, other systems. The dollar index drops 12.6 percent in one year. Steepest decline in thirty years. BRICS accelerates away from dollar reserves.

That part looks like incompetence but if there is one thing Scott Bessent is not, it's incompetent.

Step 2: Ban the government from making a digital dollar. Trump issued an Executive order in January 2025. No federal agency is allowed to build one, so the public option...the competition to a private one, is dead.

Step 3: Pass the GENIUS Act. The law that creates a legal framework for private companies to issue digital dollars instead. And here is the key, the law requires every stablecoin issuer to hold reserves in short-term US Treasury bills. Lutnick and Bo Hines wrote the GENIUS Act to benefit Tether.

Fun fact: Howard Lutnick's Canto Fitzgerald owns 5% of Tether and Bo Hines left shortly after the GENIUS Act was signed to be CEO of 21st Century, Canto Fitzgerald's crypto arm that Tether now owns.

That means every digital dollar that gets minted automatically creates one dollar of mandatory demand for government debt. Unlike normal investors, stablecoin issuers are price-inelastic, they buy Treasuries regardless of yield because the law says they have to. Brookings projects $2.3 trillion in captive Treasury demand by 2030.

So you push the physical dollar out and countries stop buying Treasuries. Then you pull it back in through private digital dollars that are legally required to buy Treasuries instead.

Different dollar with the same control. Except now it is not a public system, it is a private one, and the private company at the center of it takes a cut on every dollar that moves. The private company is also incorporated in the BVI's so no regulator has jurisdiction.

That company is Tether. $183 billion in dollars running through it, $13 billion in profit last year. It has never passed an audit. Co-founded by Jeffrey Epstein's crypto advisor. Reserves custodied by the Lutnick's family firm. Protected by a law that was championed from inside the White House by a man who quit one month after it passed and became the company's CEO.

Scott Bessent said that stablecoin firms could buy up to $1 trillion in government debt. The European Central Bank warned this "effectively outsources parts of the national debt to the crypto sector."

So in turn, our dollar gets weaker, our groceries cost more, our 401k buys less, and every time that happens, demand for the private digital dollar goes up. They get richer and we absorb the cost.

That is the trade, and the people who set it up are the ones collecting on both sides.

Gilded age 2.0 these pieces of shit want to destroy public education so you work everyday from cradle to grave. Thats why theyre pushing religion so much so that you dont question why your life is getting shittier and just assume it's God's will. To shield themselves from you. To keep you in line.

[FFRF @FFRF]

The vice president of the United States being “okay” with his actions helping bring about the end of the world is precisely why government policy should be based on reason and reality, not religious prophecy.

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

Conservative Inc influencers after the group chat sends out the new talking points:

[Just Jack @7Veritas4]

Americans, on average, work longer hours and take fewer vacations than most.

However, due to a colossal lapse in judgment, Americans put this silver-spooned imbecilic criminal twat in charge.

Said twat promptly proceeded to line his own pockets while giving unscrupulous billionaires and foreign actors free rein to pillage our resources.

Now said twat wants us to work more to compensate for all the things he’s done to wreck our economy.

You’re all caught up.

[Boston Smalls @smalls2672]

Still think its about immigration?

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

Wage growth in immigrant-heavy sectors has not increased with immigration enforcement.

States with more ICE arrests have instead seen slower wage growth in construction and hospitality.

[Acyn @Acyn]

McGowan: I think we have a whole lot of socialism in this country, and it goes to corporations. We give a ton of money to oil and gas companies. We give a ton of money to the airlines, to airlines, big banks when they’re having trouble. But the rest of us are supposed to be rugged individualists who pull ourselves up by our bootstraps…

[Maj. (Ret.) Richard Ojeda @Ojeda4America]

At least ten Afghan people in America have been sent to a gulag in the middle of Africa. They were in America for helping us when we were fighting the Taliban.

Is this how America treats those who helped us in combat??? Why would anyone ever help our troops when they see how we treat those who helped us afterwards.

Marco Rubio deserves to be prosecuted for this cruelty. What a disgrace.

I'm not entirely sure how to process that a glacier collapsed in Nepal, killing over 950 people, 4000 people are still missing, because the planet is rapidly warming. but instead of fixing the problem, billionaires and politicians are building more fossil fuels, data centres and beef farms. it is completely insane and psychotic.

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

Thomas Massie just read the names of the Epstein co-conspirators tonight on the House floor:

“We want perpetrators of these crimes to be investigated and prosecuted, men like Jes Staley, Leon Black, Les Wexner, David Copperfield, Lapo Elkann, Tom Pritzker, Glenn Dubin, Frederic Fekkai, Eduardo Teodorani, Jean-Luc Brunel, conveniently dead by suicide in prison, Daniel Siad, recently discovered dead in Paris, Ramsey Elkholy, and Princes Andrew, who committed sex crimes in the United States, too, and women like Leslie Groff, not a victim, who conspired with Epstein to traffic other women.

Perhaps hearing these names will shame the Department of Justice into delivering justice. I yield back.”

[Orwell Day @OrwellDay]

The Constitutional requirement for a search warrant exists to ensure policing is targeted, justified, and limited in scope. There is nothing targeted, justified, or limited in scope about 20 billion Flock scans a month.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

So basically this website is crawling with actual feds masquerading as independent MAGA influencers, sowing discord and pushing regime propaganda on the government payroll while pretending to be anti-establishment.
