If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Jeffrey Epstein was a Mossad asset with deep ties to former Israeli Prime minister Ehud Barack.

The files reveal Israeli spying on, entrapping and blackmailing U.S. officials & financiers.

THAT is why they will never be released in full form.

The Trump administration openly says that it will use its domestic spying capabilities to target people who oppose ICE’s actions. And ICE has been bulking up on the latest surveillance technology.

New members of Congress understand tech in ways their predecessors often don't, and now they’re driving new bills on online safety, privacy, AI, and more. But without a centralized tech committee, needed regulations can through the cracks. bit.ly/3K76Pjr

I can’t count on the ADL to defend me or my family from the White Christian nationalists who control the federal government.

I can count on the ADL to attack my political allies (especially people of color!) fighting for freedom and justice for all.

They should disband.

Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

What matters most is balance: a nourished, well-rested, vaccinated body not one overdosed on vitamins. Also you do not need a Z-pak to treat your common cold but that is a myth we will tackle another day :). FIN

Amazon sells a lot of garbage. One of the types of refuse peddled there are books about “herbal remedies”.

Some new work has shown that 82% of these books may have been written by AI.

Many quote Barbara O’Neill, an Aussie naturopath who has been banned from practicing medicine for life.

Do we say a man is sane when he calls in the military to fight a war when there is no war? If such a man is not sane, do we have a solution to stop the madness if he’s in the White House?

Blue cities should tear up the roads in front of ICE facilities and then start decades of community engagement and input sessions to rebuild them. Let's harness our core competencies.
