U.S. President Donald J. Trump has signed an Executive Order drastically shrinking the Grand Staircase-Escalante and Bears Ears National Monuments in Utah, reimposing an order he made in 2017 during his first presidency that was later rescinded by President Joe Biden. The signing of the order was attended by Governor Spencer Cox and Utah’s federal delegation, made up of Sen. Mike Lee, Sen. John Curtis, Rep. Celeste Maloy, Rep. Blake Moore, Rep. Mike Kennedy, and Rep. Burgess Owens.

If you thought Flock license plate readers were bad, this is next-level surveillance state territory.

A defense contractor called Leonardo is rolling out a system called SignalTrace. It bolts sensors onto the license plate readers already mounted across America, the same Flock-style cameras on poles, overpasses, and police cars.

It doesn’t just read your plate. It vacuums up the Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and wireless signals from every smart device in your car. Your phone, your AirPods, your smartwatch, your fitness tracker, your tire pressure sensors, your key fobs. All of it.

Those unique device IDs get tied straight to your license plate. Once they’ve made the link, they can track you without ever scanning your plate again. It even flags who’s riding with you. A friend hops in once and their devices get logged to your file.

This is being sold to law enforcement, military, and intelligence agencies. It turns roadside cameras into people-tracking nodes that build a persistent “electronic fingerprint” of every driver and passenger who rolls past.

There’s no federal law covering it. No opt-out. No warrant required.

The surveillance state isn’t coming. It’s already bolted to the street.

Government regulations account for 26% of the cost of a home, while immigration account for 30%.

The reason young people can't afford homes is because immigration and the government literally doubled the price.

In May 2001, foreign "art students" using fake credentials and cell phones traced to a diplomat who had left the US were caught photographing federal buildings & military bases. When Carl Cameron reported on the spy network, powerful lobbying groups smeared him to kill the story.

BREAKING: Iran says the US has agreed to pay $300 billion in reconstruction funds directly to Iran as part of the deal Pakistan announced, alongside the release of $24 billion in frozen funds with $12 billion released before negotiations even start, per Mehr News.

This directly contradicts Trump's & Vance's claim that no funds will be transferred to Iran at all.

If Trump denies this is true, there never was a deal. If Trump confirms, the US has fully capitulated to Iran's demands.
