I guess they saw how well we handled Afghanistan and how well we've been protecting our border and have a skewed view of our military/defenses. @GovAbbott - please send ALL TX Natl Guard to the border- the US is not going to help TX, we have to handle it ourselves. @SecMayorkas

RABBI BENHAIM: “There will be two big buildings in Edom — America — the tallest in the world. They will be brought down completely. One week before the WTC fell, a rabbi prayed Mincha right there and said: ‘Say bye-bye to those buildings. You’re not going to see them no more.’”

WOAH 🚨 American posted a video of her daughter sitting in the car. META then put a prompt on the video saying “Who’s the child passenger” for people to click on, then gave personal info AND HOME LOCATION

“Why in the hell is that even a suggested question about a minor? But I clicked it, and this is where I started getting really uncomfortable:

It starts pulling completely separate information for each of my kids, their names, birth information, pictures and videos of them.

It pulled a newborn picture from my mom's page from years ago, and then it pulled this. I deleted this picture years ago”

Here’s where it gets extremely shocking

“And then Facebook suggests that I ask Meta AI, "Where does Kaylie Robbins live?" Are you kidding me? — then it says, "I'm pointing Kaylie Robbins' location." It pieced together my information to show people where I live”

It looks like this is META’s AI that is doing this. When it gives these messages on people’s videos and photos to “learn more” about something, it’s to help people get more information about topics or posts that interest them

But unfortunately, it’s what’s in the photo so if it’s a child that’s what the AI is looking for more information on. Apparently META is fixing this issue….

Here’s how to make sure this doesn’t happen to you on META

- Lock down audience on old albums, not just new posts, make private if possible
- Public + “friends of friends” is what these systems treat as available to use for AI
- Ask relatives to untag and unshare kids. You have to do this because copies on their pages stay in the available information for the Ai to pull from
- Turn off camera roll, cloud processing, sharing suggestions in Facebook settings and restrict the Facebook app’s photo access on the phone to selected photos only (You have to do this because Facebook is testing AI features that pull from your phone camera roll)

Meta says they’re patching this specific prompt style, but that doesn’t mean the underlying ability to answer “who is this child and where does this person live” from public history is gone

When you delete something it isn’t really done and can still be used by META’s artificial intelligence

A photo you deleted from your timeline can still exist on someone else’s album, share or download, it can also be in Meta’s backup window after deletion

Relatives tagging or posting kids is a separate data source you don’t control. This can be accessed by the AI to pull data on your child. The woman explicitly said that’s how some of the old newborn and family information was sourced and provided to anyone who clicked the link

One of the craziest parts about this that people NEED to be aware of is this part

‘Meta has also been testing camera-roll and cloud-processing suggestions that analyze unpublished photos if you opt in’

This means photos and videos on your cloud or camera roll that haven’t been posted... META can treat these items as a data source, even though you never posted the photo or video…. Insanity

Another great observation

[theleahfiles @leahfiles]

How the government is using Tether to build the financial component of the surveillance state.

Two guys in Bangkok ran a gaming promotion business that was legal, and licensed. They arranged VIP experiences, travel, lodging, meals, for high-roller clients at casinos operated by a publicly traded US company in Asia. The casino did KYC on them and on their customers. They independently screened every crypto wallet that touched their business. They were not hiding from anyone

On October 30, 2025, at 11 PM UTC, Tether blacklisted ten of their Ethereum wallets in a two-and-a-half-minute batch. $42,417,785.62 frozen. The largest wallet alone held $26.1 million. One of the men, Natthawat Kasamvilas, contacted Tether to find out what happened. On November 2nd Tether emailed him back, gave him the name of a Homeland Security Investigations agent, and said "We do not have further information at this time." They did not mention that they were the ones who froze the money

Here is what actually happened. An HSI agent out of Raleigh, North Carolina got a tip from a victim, one person, identified in court documents only as "GM", who lost roughly $30,000 in a romance scam. HSI traced GM's $30,000 to a consolidation wallet, then identified 18 wallets belonging to Thai nationals, then traced forward to 11 more wallets connected to two of those Thai nationals. None of those 11 wallets belonged to Kasamvilas or his business partner Nutthawat Rukthammachalern. The affidavit does not trace a single dollar from the scam victim to their wallets. The tracing exhibits the government submitted were, according to their lawyers, "so blurry and illegible that it is impossible to meaningfully review or decipher" them. When clearer copies were requested, key portions were still unreadable

But none of that mattered, because before any of that paperwork existed, before any judge reviewed any evidence, a Homeland Security agent called Tether and asked them to freeze the wallets. He did not have a warrant or a court order or a subpoena. Just a request. And Tether did it

They flew to the United States. On May 21, 2026, they sat down with HSI officials in person, brought lawyers, presented evidence that the government's own affidavit had no tracing connecting the scam to their wallets. HSI gave them no substantive answers and no path to get their money back

As of today, no indictment has been filed against them. No criminal charges. and no civil forfeiture complaint. The government has not accused them of a crime in any court. But their $42.4 million is still frozen. And the whole time it has been frozen, Tether has been earning Treasury yield on the reserves backing those tokens. The company that locked their money is profiting from locking their money and not giving it back.

Kasamvilas and Rukthammachalern had no account with Tether. They bought their USDT on the open market, the same way 650 million other people use it. And Tether froze it anyway because it has a function built into its smart contract called addBlackList that lets the company unilaterally lock any wallet on earth with no judge, no hearing, just a line of code

They filed a motion in North Carolina on July 31st demanding the government return their funds. Then on August 31st they sued Tether in the Southern District of New York. The lawsuit says what happened to them is conversion, trespass, and unjust enrichment. Tether called the case "baseless" and said it was interfering with their "important work with global law enforcement"

So, a private company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, now operating out of El Salvador, froze $42.4 million belonging to two foreign nationals based on a phone call from one US federal agent investigating a $30,000 scam. No charges filed to this day. And when they sued, the company said helping law enforcement freeze people's money without legal process is "important work".

That is not how the law works when the government freezes your bank account. They need a judge. They need probable cause. They need the 4th Amendment. But Tether is not the government, and that is the point.

They already did this with physical surveillance. Flock Safety has 120,000 cameras across 49 states tracking every car that passes, make, model, color, scratches, passengers, pedestrians. Police departments buy access, and CBP taps in, no warrant needed because it is a private company selling a service. Axon has 85 percent of the body camera market and built a platform that merges CCTV, drones, license plate readers, gunshot detection, and AI analytics into what they call a "single pane of glass." Palantir combined financial transactions, communications, travel records, and criminal databases into one system and sold it to the CIA, ICE, the Pentagon, and local police. The FBI uses it for "complete target analysis of known populations"

The 4th Amendment says the government cannot search you without a warrant. But if a private company collects the data and the government buys access to it, or just asks nicely, that protection disappears. A bipartisan group in Congress called it a loophole and introduced the Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act. It has not passed, of course.

Now they are doing the same thing with our money.

If the government wanted to monitor every financial transaction in America, it would need legislation, judicial oversight, probably a Supreme Court fight. It would take years and it might fail. But if a private company issues a digital currency that 650 million people use, monitors every transaction through the FBI's own surveillance contractor, and freezes wallets on a phone call, well the government gets the same result without any of the legal burden.

Here is what you would need to build a privatized financial surveillance network and what Tether has already done.

(1) You would need a currency people are forced into.
So you ban the government from making its own digital dollar…done, January 2025 executive order. Then you pass a law making private stablecoins the only legal option…done, GENIUS Act. You crash the real dollar with tariffs so people worldwide switch to the digital one…happening right now. Tether is at 650 million users and adding 30 million wallets a quarter.

(2) You would need to see every transaction.
Tether partnered with Chainalysis, the same surveillance firm the FBI and Secret Service use to track money. Every USDT transaction on every blockchain is monitored in real time

(3) You would need identity resolution.
The GENIUS Act classifies stablecoins as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act. KYC requirements, transaction monitoring, suspicious activity reporting. FinCEN published the compliance rules in June 2026. Every user becomes identifiable.

4) You would need the power to freeze and seize without going through a judge.
Tether has frozen $4.4 billion across thousands of wallets. They work with 310 law enforcement agencies in 64 countries. They froze $42.4 million on a verbal request from one agent.

(5) You would need physical surveillance to pair with financial surveillance, because money tells you what someone bought but not where they are.
Tether invested in Satellogic, a satellite company building daily coverage of the entire planet by 2027. The tech partner is Palantir, the AI runs on the satellites. The capability is called "pattern of life assessment."

(6) You would need computing power to process it all.
Tether owns 22,000 Nvidia GPUs through the Rumble-Northern Data merger. $150 million committed for GPU access.

(7) You would need media control in case anyone starts reporting on it.
Tether owns 48 percent of Rumble and signed a $100 million advertising deal.

(8) And you would need the regulators to protect you instead of investigating you.
The Commerce Secretary's family firm custodies Tether's reserves and owns 5% of it. The former Treasury Secretary chairs the satellite company. The White House crypto czar wrote the law and became Tether's CEO one month later. And the Corporate Transparency Act, the one law that required shell companies to disclose who owns them, got deleted.

That is every piece all in place. Hard to ignore. All owned by one company that has never been audited, is incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, and is run by four men, two who just moved to El Salvador with 15 shell companies and no extradition treaty.

The 4th Amendment was written to stop the government from doing this. It does not apply to Tether and that is their plan, I think. They are privatizing the surveillance apparatus and Tether looks like the financial component.

Howard Lutnick knows that cattle use green water and Data centers use blue water but he thinks Americans are stupid. And to his credit, so many are. But why is the messaging to villainize cattle? Oh, so we can import beef from Argentina. Enjoy!

@grok @WyattCatarina @mfr_marcos @paleochristcon @TheStraySaint Either way- Grok was claiming she wanted to free Tyler Robinson and that was proved incorrect. The rest of this is meaningless in context of the original Grok query.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@JonAlden1620 @grok It was 200 feet and from a totally different trajectory and the bullet entered, exited, then re-entered his body unlike the magic bullet that supposedly hit Charlie and bounced internally off his skin to change trajectory and head down his spine.

@JANELLERELLA_DH @RamosLadd64631 @Schulla007 @RealCandaceO @charliekirk11 Obviously you just believe what you've heard- definitely a sign of high intelligence and scholastic excellence. Very discerning.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@RamosLadd64631 @Schulla007 @RealCandaceO @charliekirk11 It's very obvious.

Good day.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@VwgurlChrissy I think no such thing & we're all individuals. It's too bad that you feel the need to be so insulting- adults used to disagree without regressing to high school name calling.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@NickiiiVon @RealCandaceO Run away from conversation- I don't think that's usually what someone with a strong argument does. I see it as a sign of a poor argument, utter weakness, and an attempt to remain ignorant.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@NickiiiVon @RealCandaceO Do you think name calling strengthens your argument? We didn't think he would plead guilty b/c we think he's not guilty. At this point, anyone acting as if there is NO POSSIBILITY that he is innocent, that can't admit there is at least REASONABLE DOUBT, aren't honest actors.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@JonAlden1620 @TruthAnswersAll @RealCandaceO You should have copied and pasted your 2nd response about it too.

You're ridiculous. Good-bye.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@JonAlden1620 @TruthAnswersAll @RealCandaceO Perhaps grab a spelling book while you're at it.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@4freedom1USA @RealCandaceO @UnfilteredCGP All you post about is Candace while pretending to be a Christian. Do you think 1 more shit post is going to change a mind? Are you obsessed?

Did you distract yourself from your addiction by becoming addicted to posting about Candace? Do better.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@JonAlden1620 @TruthAnswersAll @RealCandaceO Ad hominem, straw man, false equivalency, red herring and a lot of condescension. You have a lot of insults for someone who can't form a sound, cogent or even valid argument.

Go read "An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments"- perhaps the cartoon animals can teach you logic.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@JonAlden1620 @TruthAnswersAll @RealCandaceO From ad hominem to false equivalency - perhaps we'll see all the fallacies in your answers in this thread because you don't appear to have a sound, cogent argument.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@JonAlden1620 @TruthAnswersAll @RealCandaceO Ad hominem attacks are the work of those without sound reasoning.

We live in America. We're allowed to ask questions and to doubt the veracity of anyone we choose. We don't have to be investigators to know something smells here and we loved Charlie so we care.

[KatiCat @thekaticrump]

@TuggyTv @RealCandaceO It's really shocking how none of you can even entertain the possibility that he's pleading not guilty because he's not guilty.

I've never in my life seen anything like this phenomena. Y'all are so angry about a journalist actually investigating- it's weird and unnatural.

Why?
