Friday Reflections:
What part of your past do you wish you could change the most?
What do you replay over and over in your mind?
Write it down. Say it out loud.
Then say this: “God, I release this to You.”
What does one step forward look like for you today?
Maybe it’s forgiveness.
Maybe it’s rest. Maybe it’s choosing to stop rehearsing the pain.
Whatever it is—name it.
Then take that step.
You’re not going back.
But you are moving forward.
And forward is holy ground.
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
🚨 UPDATE: Sen. Mike Lee just FIRED BACK at Leader John Thune saying "we don't have the votes" to surge through the SAVE America Act
LEE: "John Thune is mistaken. We *do* have the votes to pass the SAVE America Act, because we have a simple majority."
"All we lack is the will to enforce the talking filibuster, and to stay in session continuously until it passes. IT'D PASS." 🔥
We should've been holding the floor hostage for SAVE since FEBRUARY, at least!
It would've been effective.
START NOW!
🚨 https://t.co/5ajzizjI8F STRIKES AGAIN: TRUMPBLOGS, FORMERLY KNOWN AS NOBLOGS 🚨
🏴 THE ANARCHIST INTERNATIONAL ON NOBLOGS, MAPPED — EVERY BLOG, EVERY CELL, EVERY CITY. 🌍
The militant far-left has spent years hiding in plain sight on https://t.co/HFD4sxphTk — the anonymous blog network that quietly powers antifa, anarchist, squat, and "solidarity" cells around the world. So on my own time, for free, I scraped the whole thing. Because I kick commie *** for fun and need no government funding or sanction for it.
Introducing an interactive map of 7000+ blogs across many countries and languages — antifascist, anarchist, ecological, prisoner-solidarity, migrant-border, revolutionary. Every one classified, geolocated, and searchable down to the verbatim quote.
* 🔥 Verified quotes. Every claim is a receipt — their words, not mine.
* 🌐 4000-plus blogs pinned to a live world map — zoom into your own city.
* ⚔️ Many blogs classified "operational."
* 🕸️ Click any blog, author, or cell and walk the network one tie at a time.
No grant funded this. No client asked for it. I do this for free, on my own time, because someone should.
🖥️ Data-heavy! Best viewed on desktop.
📖 A preview of what's coming: DataRepublican v2.0 — full site redesign — launches soon, ahead of my and @JoshuaLisec book UNELECTED (Passage Press, Oct 13).
And yes — if I can map the anarchist international in my spare time, I can map anything.
👇 Try it now (link in next post):
The man who died next to Jesus had nothing.
No baptism.
No communion.
No confirmation.
No speaking in tongues.
No mission trip.
No volunteering.
No financial gifts.
No church clothes.
He couldn't even bend his knees to pray.
Nails through his wrists meant no folded hands.
No sinner's prayer crossed his lips.
No altar call for a dying criminal.
He was naked.
Bleeding.
Worthy of death under the law.
Jesus didn't remove his pain.
Didn't heal his broken body.
Didn't silence the crowd mocking them both.
Didn't bring him down from that cross.
The thief had no testimony to share.
No before-and-after transformation story.
No time to prove his faith was real.
No chance to clean up his life.
Just a dying breath used to say:
"Lord, remember me."
And Jesus blood running down His face
Turned to this worthless criminal and promised:
"Today shalt thou be with me in paradise."
No theologian's spin needed.
No brilliant sermon required.
No worship team or mood lighting.
No haze machines or hip pastor.
No coffee bar in the lobby.
No small group sign-ups.
Just a naked man dying on wood.
Unable to move.
Unable to serve.
Unable to give.
Unable to perform.
Unable to impress.
Unable to earn.
All he could do was believe.
Believe that the bloodied man next to him
Was who He claimed to be.
That was it.
That was everything.
He entered paradise the same hour as Christ.
Not because of what he did.
Because of who Jesus is.
This criminal understood in his final moments
What religious men spend lifetimes missing:
Salvation isn't in your performance.
It's in His promise.
"For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish,
but have everlasting life."
A thief.
A cross.
A Savior.
A promise.
THAT IS ENOUGH.

WOW 🚨 The nonprofit who owns the billing codes used by our medical system and gets paid $300 million per year in royalties ALSO SETS THE PRICE OF MEDICAL SERVICES for those codes
American surgeon “It feels ridiculous because we as healthcare providers have to use those codes according to state and federal government, and the AMA created them, copyrighted them, and charges us, the people that they're representing, to use them.
So let's go one step further.
The CPT code system is meant to be this five-digit code that is a universal language for documenting and reporting for all the things that we do in healthcare back to insurance companies, right and ultimately, that affects reimbursement.
But here's a wrinkle that you might not have known.
The AMA also actually makes a recommendation to the government about a value that's assigned to the CPT codes that they own. That's right. They own the system. They're making money off of that, and then they're also recommending back to CMS and ultimately to insurance companies how much doctors and providers are paid for those codes.
That is quite a lot of power for one organization to hold over the money that's exchanged in this healthcare system.
So they're making that three hundred million dollars a year licensing it, but then they're also influencing what I get paid for everything that I do. Interesting…..”
- US government made using these codes mandatory
- A nonprofit who donates millions to politicians on both sides was able to keep the copyright
- That group collects hundreds of millions a year from the people required to use it
- The same group runs the committee that recommends the dollar values attached to those codes
The people who could change this, our politicians, are being paid off not to change it
This is a racket
A firsthand look at Los Angeles’ million dollar public bathroom
Democrats are laundering your tax money
@HarrisonBaum “It's got 2 stalls at $480,000 each — Even though it was pre-built and just dropped in, it still took 20 months to open, longer than the Empire State Building”
“Some might call it a homeless duplex”
No one can look at this bathroom and think it really cost $1 million dollars… especially pre-built
I actually looked into this and found the actual breakdown:
Prefab restroom unit itself only cost $283,796
The rest of the money was all complete overpriced nonsense
- Site prep, ADA path of travel, and utilities: $528,650
- Permits + contingency: $134,570
Somehow a $283,796 turned into just under a million dollars…. You can’t make this make sense
What Sparkle Beach Ken Doll won't tell you is that he's talking only about VC money, going entirely to AI companies...which all happen to be in CA because that's where tech took root 30 years before Gavin Newsom was even born. Thousands of businesses, including behemoths like Tesla, SpaceX, Chevron, Oracle, even IN N OUT...the most iconic California brand, are all fleeing his disastrous reign.
If there's any investment in CA today it's because Gavin's term is mercifully expiring in 4 months and there's only so much damage he can do anymore.
A police chief in Oshkosh, Wisconsin caught Flock lying to his city council, and killed the $8 billion surveillance company's contract less than a day after the council had approved it.
Here's how it happened.
The night before, Oshkosh's council was set to renew its deal with Flock Safety, the license plate camera company backed by a16z and Tiger Global.
One council member asked the Flock rep a plain yes-or-no question. Does this system build a heat map of everywhere a specific car travels over time?
Flock's rep said no.
The council believed him and voted 5 to 2 to renew. By the next morning, Chief Dean Smith's own officers had told him that answer was false.
So he pulled up the system himself. He watched it generate the exact heat map Flock had just sworn it couldn't make.
Then he walked into an emergency meeting and said it out loud: "Because of this misrepresentation, I can no longer recommend Flock."
Understand what a heat map is, because it's the whole trick.
Flock sells cities a tidy little story. A car drives by, we snap a photo, we read the plate, that's all it is.
But the same system can quietly average out where your car goes day after day and paint your routine onto a map.
Not one snapshot at one corner. Your pattern. Where you sleep, where you work, where you keep going back and how often.
A Flock employee later admitted on the record that the software does exactly that.
So the pitch and the product are two different things. The company wins the contract selling a plate reader, then sits on a moving map of your life.
The only reason Oshkosh caught it was one skeptical question and a police chief who bothered to check the answer.
The vote to rescind was 7 to 0. Unanimous.
Flock called the whole thing "one small misconception" from a long meeting and said it was disappointed nobody let it explain.
A surveillance company worth eight billion dollars got caught lying about whether it maps where you drive. Its defense was that the lie was small.
Oshkosh got one honest answer by accident. Congress can make it the rule.

Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley says Americans can’t outright ban Flock cameras because they are ‘for our safety’
“I value my privacy, my family values their privacy, my employees value their privacy, but what we're talking about is safety as well”
“So I think when people talk about just one of these, privacy or safety, they're prioritizing the wrong thing. And what we have to prioritize as a country is compromise — when I think about legislation that calls for an outright ban, that's like banning vehicles”
Actually no, it’s nothing like banning vehicles. This is banning a mass surveillance network that extends far beyond license plate readers. Flock is putting up people tracking AI powered cameras in parks, playgrounds, trails and many other places
Flock is mass surveillance without a warrant
@WatchChad Chad, there are 2 versions listed on Amazon with slightly different covers, book names. One has 320 pages, published 8/20. The other has 190, published 8/23. Why?
DEMON: Sir, we’ve got a problem.
DEVIL: What now?
DEMON: The Left versus Right thing isn’t working like it used to. People are starting to realize both sides are being manipulated.
DEVIL: Fine. Did you try Black versus White?
DEMON: Of course. We pushed it hard. But they’re catching on. Some of them are actually talking to each other.
DEVIL: Disgusting.
DEMON: I know, sir. We even tried rich versus poor, rural versus urban, vaccinated versus unvaccinated…
DEVIL: And?
DEMON: They’re exhausted. They’re starting to suspect that maybe constantly hating their neighbors isn’t making their lives better.
DEVIL: Hmm…
DEMON: What do we do?
DEVIL: Bust out the classic.
DEMON: Religion?
DEVIL: Older.
DEMON: Class warfare?
DEVIL: Older.
DEMON: Oh no…
DEVIL: Man versus woman.
DEMON: Sir, we’ve used that one forever.
DEVIL: Exactly. And they fall for it every damn time.
DEMON: What’s the angle?
DEVIL: Easy. Take something complicated, tragic, or emotional, then convince everyone the real issue isn’t right versus wrong.
DEMON: Then what is it?
DEVIL: Tell women, “Men could never understand.”
DEMON: And tell men?
DEVIL: “Women are irrational.”
DEMON: Brilliant. So nobody actually discusses the issue.
DEVIL: Now you’re learning. Never let them debate principles when you can make them resent each other personally.
DEMON: And if they start finding common ground?
DEVIL: Remind them that the other side is the enemy.
DEMON: What if they realize we’re doing it?
DEVIL: Then we’re screwed.
DEMON: Why?
DEVIL: Because the day men and women stop fighting each other long enough to ask who’s benefiting from the fight…
DEMON: Yeah?
DEVIL: …they might finally look in our direction.
