Executive Disorder: SPLC Indictment, Denaturalization, Iran

An IDF soldier has been photographed destroying a statue of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ in Lebanon, showing it with a splitting more the reporting called it a sledge hammer. That's not what a sledgehammer looks like. I know, I get really picky about this, but like, maybe if you haven't worked with your hands, you should write things that can be read by someone who has scan and not

be completely ridiculous. The IDF has launched an investigation and so far subjected two soldiers to thirty days in military detention, which is more than they would get if they had killed actual Christian children in Palestine, says a Lot. I think that this image is like, we spoke about this in our group chat, but this is the it's one image at Comic Book Evil. There are many reasons why this is the thing that's blowing up for them. Ken

Paxton is investigating Act Blue. Act Blue is a major donation website for Democratic candidates, is claiming that they have continued to accept gift card donations, which could hide donations from foreign individuals or corporations or even states. I suppose the United States government's plans to send Afghans who are stuck in Limbo and Kata to the democractic Republic of

Congo being reported on by the New York Times. Just for some context here, I saw people sharing this and thinking that they that this referred to Afghan SIV recipients who are resident in the United States. That is not what it's referring to. It's referring to people who the Biden administration removed from Afghanistan or wherever they worked in Pakistan right and then took them to katter As like a temporary stopping off point where they would continue to

do their vetting and background checks. This is normal for refugee admissions as opposed to asylum admissions. And then the twenty twenty four election happened, Democrats lost, and that's people have been in limbo ever since, and it appears to Trump administration has been trying to get them various states in Africa to accept them, and it's now proposing the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country which already has a significant refugee crisis.

in red states like Texas. At the behest of Trump, but now with Virginia, Dems are actually up one seat nationally. Ronda Santis has called for Florida lawmakers to meet next week to consider redistricting in their state. Trump has called the Virginia election quote unquote rigged, saying that Republicans were winning until a quote massive mail in ballot drop un quote, which is just how elections work. That's just how voting works.

go to a vote while legal challenges continue. This is the second most important election this week, the most important one obviously being the Webbys, in which I think can announce we have won in the unrigged election matters, the only fair election that this country is seen possibly in like over twenty five years.

can tell about what's going on. Obviously in the immediate wake of Operation Epic Fury, and is recently as last Tuesday, President Trump said quote, we've taken out their navy, We've taken out their air force, We've taken out their leaders. On April eighth, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called Operation Epic Fury a historic and overwhelming victory on the battlefield. By any measure, Epic Fury decimated Iron's military and rendered it

combat and effective for years to come. Now that last sentence, the first part is technically accurate, but not in the way that Hegseth means.

and Iranian air power. While it's been degraded, is still significantly more functional than actually I had assumed. About two thirds of the Iranian Air force is still believed to be operational despite the massive US and Israeli air strikes largely targeting air production and storage facilities. The fact that you're looking at two thirds of Iran's navy and air force still functional and at least about half their ballistic

missile stockpile and their launch system stockpile intact. That's a significant difference from what the administration has claimed and evidence that where we to continue to press with the open fighting part of this conflict, it would be years probably before you're talking about like a complete degradation of Iranian fighting capability if that was ever achieved, Like when you factor in the United States would continue to suffer casualties,

and we've already been losing more of you know, particularly our interceptor missile capability and a number of advanced systems like a wax then we can avoid to replace James.

of ships have lrads. But they could have also used a radio that if they can talk to them on the radio of they're receiving communications with the radio. They then ordered it to evacuate its engine room. They then shut out its engine with the five inch gun.

towards that region. Right, We specifically said that this is one of the capacities that it had they boarded the ship, so they transferred to by helicopter and then boarded the ship. The US has since inspected other ships, including outside of the Saint Comeo. So the US perceives its blockade to be global right of Iranian assets, of Iranian vessels and the quote unquote shadow fleet, which we've already explained on D so I'm not going to go into depth on

what that means. The IOGC also fired at several vessels in the street. There is some reporting that one of them, an Indian tanker, had paid a fee in cryptocurrency to what turned out to be a scammer. I am certain that these scams exist because there have been multiple warnings of them. I haven't seen any evidence that is satisfactory enough for me to be confident that that particular ship had been scammed. But perhaps the most compelling piece of

evidence a ship is called the San mar Herald. Is this audio that we're going to play right here, if my.

think that's important in the context of the ceasefire. I want to explain very briefly, there's been a lot of contradictory reporting on when, where, and how negotiations are going to happen. The ceasefire was set to expire the day

we're recording Wednesday. On Tuesday, we saw Donald Trump laterally extend the ceasefire by truthing quote based on the fact that the government of Iran it's seriously fractured, not unexpectedly so, and upon the request of Field Marshal Simonia and Prime Minister Shabbad Sharif of Pakistan, we have been asked to hold our attack on the country of Iran until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with

a unified proposal. I have therefore directed our military to continue the blockade and in all other respects remained ready and able, and will therefore extend the cease fire until such time as their proposalists submitted and discussions are concluded one way or the other. President Donald J. Trump, the consensus seems to me that this is not like an infinite extension. This is like maybe less than a week for Iran to either comply with US terms or submit proposals.

In the US consider it's acceptable. A lot of that reporting does seem to come from Baraque Revied, who's not really good at journalism, so take it with the pinch of salt. Trump, though, is correct that the state of Iran is on a unified entity, and I covered this in the piece I did last week on an update on the Iron War, Right, Like, I think there's a tendency from people in the global North to look at

a state and see it as like a pyramid. Right, you have the head of state, and then you have government, and then you have legislature, and then you have the people they commanded, right, military and all the civil bureaucracy. That's not quite how Iran works, and I went into more detail in that episode that I made, so I'm not going to go into it here. But there are a series of overlapping but not entirely aligned power centers within Iran and within its military capacity, both within its

military and traditional sense and within the IIGC. Why this is relevant to the negotiations is it's not possible for politicians to negotiate if they do not believe that they can agree to terms and that their military will then comply with those terms. Right. If the Iranian Foreign ministry agrees with the US to do something, the IGC doesn't do it, that then immediately undermines any further negotiations.

Israel never talked me into the war with Iran. The results of October seventh added to my lifelong opinion that Iran can never have a nuclear weapon. Did Yeah, I don't know what's going on with that sentence.

into this conflict. Right, He's clearly sensitive. The last thing that I want to add is that strikes on Kurdish groups have continued despite the ceasefire, right despite the renewed cease fire the PAK. Just two hours after Trump announced the extension of the ceasefire, Tehran sent four drones to attack a PAK base. There have been more injuries in Kurdistan.

It doesn't seem that Iran considers any ceasefire to apply to its ongoing attack against Detroit Gilati groups who are currently in southern Kurdistan inside the borders of Iraq.

conspiracy to commit to concealment money laundering. The indictment argues that the SPLC defrauded their donors by using donation money to pay confidential informants within white premacist or neo Nazi organizations. Here is a short clip of the press conference of a reporter asking Todd Blanche a question.

you know, basically, to informants too, for information, for access, to just pay them for for certain to do certain things. And and so yes, that's exactly what the indictment charges.

hate groups and far right extremists. This indictment claims that the SPLC is utilized informants to gained information on far right activity since the eighties, but between twenty fourteen and twenty twenty three, the SPLC secretly paid over three million dollars to individuals associated with various violent extruist groups quote unquote in a clandestine manner.

extremist groups. That money was then used for the benefit of the individuals as well as the violent extremist groups.

of America, American Nazi Party, and American Front. One informant, according to the indictment, was quote a member of the online leadership chat group that planned the twenty seventeen Unite the Right event in Charlottesville, Virginia, and attended the event at the direction of the SPLC. This informant made racist postings under the supervision of the SPLC and helped coordinate

transportation to the event for several attendees. Between twenty fifteen and twenty twenty three, the SPLC secretly paid this informant more than two hundred and seventy thousand dollars. From twenty fourteen to twenty twenty three, more than one million dollars was allegedly paid to someone affiliated with the National Alliance who served as an informant for over twenty years while

fundraising for this Nazi group. The Imperial Wizard of the Rebooted Imperial Clans of America was a paid informant, according to the indictment. This is likely a guy named Bradley Jenkins, an officer in the National Socialist Movement and the Aryan Nations affiliated Sadistic Soul's Motorcycle Club, secretly received more than three hundred thousand dollars Between twenty fourteen and twenty twenty.

The former chairman of the National Alliance was secretly paid more than one hundred and four twenty thousand dollars, while the SPLC website featured an extremist profile page for this individual, likely Eric Glebe. The SPLC also paid the leader of the National Socialist Party of America seventy thousand dollars between twenty fourteen to twenty sixteen. This individual was a former director of an Aryan Nations faction and a former member

of the KKK. This is likely a guy named Paul Mullett, who the SBLC hosts an extremist file web page on their website. A few other unidentified informants are listed in the indictment, as well as a claim that the SPLC funneled more than one hundred and sixty thousand dollars from a fictitious entity to an informant quote, who then sent funds to various violent extremist group leaders, including the former Grand Wizard of the Knights of the klu Klux Klan unquote.

That's a lot of money now. To obscure the nature of these payments, the SBLC opened a series of bank accounts at multiple banks for various fictitious businesses. These weren't actually incorporated, but they claimed to be businesses with names like the Center Investigative Agency or the CIA. Why Yeah, Fox Photography, Northwest Technologies, Tech Writers Group, Rare Books, Warehouse Imagery, Inc. JNJ Electronics, Kelly's Marine and Turner Personnel.

forfeiture of financial gains from the alleged illegal activities. The right has reacted to this news by calling the Unite the Right rally and kind of the alt right movement as it existed from this time period a syop or a false flag. Senator Mike Lee, right wing political influencer Nick Sorter, and Elon Musk have boosted these claims, getting tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of likes on x the Everything app. This seems to be a new narrative.

It's not really new, I guess, but an enhanced narrative that is emerging among the online right as a way to dissuade some of the uglier parts of that era while still carrying along a lot of the same politics.

Especially on the Great Replacement, which is more of a mainstream idea among the conservative movement at this point in time, so they're able to walk away from the uglier kind of imagery and explicitly not see elements of this like the KKK, which is very boomer very very Boomer coded the KKKA, so they're able to call stuff like that and the Unite the Right Rally a syop or a false flag while still reaping the benefits that the alt

right movement achieved by kind of trailblazing certain rhetoric into the conservative mainstream. Right wing commentators have also used this news to reassert one of their favorite claims that Patriot Front is a psyop or a false flag operation, that whenever a group of young Nazis show up in a U haul all wearing matching outfits and masks, that this is a staged event by either the deep State, the FEDS, or a group like the SBLC. Patriot Front is not

actually named in this indictment. There's no evidence that the SPLC was paying anyone at Patriot Front to inform on the operations of that group, and obviously paying an individual to inform on the details of an upcoming event like Unite the Right. Does not mean that the Unite the Right event in Charlottesville was planned or staged by the SPLC. Dozens of people were involved in the planning of this event,

and hundreds participated of their own volition. One person in a planning group chat sending info to the SPLC does not mean that this action was staged or fake.

I don't know if I feel like that, like the specific things they have to prove in order to date a conviction are accurate, because fundamentally, anyone who donated to the SPLC knew that they were like getting shipped from informants, you know, like I don't think that was like the amount of money though, is shocking.

You know, obviously the FBI also uses information, sure, right, the FBI does this same thing. Famously, the FBI paid the OH nine A affiliated Joshua Caleb Sutter over one hundred and forty thousand dollars. From twenty three to twenty twenty one.

our nation's most radical and violent extremist groups unquote. The indictment does not characterize many of these informants as quote unquote infiltrators, but rather individuals who were already members of these groups and were paid by the SBLC to share information and gossip on fellow members. The SBLC statement also said that they quote frequently shared what we learned from informants with local and federal law enforcement, including the FBI.

We did not, however, share our use of informants broadly with anyone to protect the identity and safety of the informants and their families unquote. Like a lot of the people in this field, the FBI knew the SBLC was doing this.

behind behind deciding to do this right now. The FBI already knew that this was happening to a certain extent, but now they are going after the SBOC as a part of a targeted political prosecution, and this indictment could be seen as part of the anti Antifa nonprofit crackdown. Last March, CBS News reported that the FBI and the IRS formed a new initiative to investigate fraad at nonprofit organizations with suspected links to domestic terrorism, following federal directives

to pursue Antifa aligned groups. A spokesperson from the IRS told CBS News quote, IRS Criminal Investigation is collaborating with federal law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, to investigate individuals and entities that may be funding domestic terrorism or political violence.

focused in combating the far right. But in terms of this showing any reason to be like scared that they're going to disappear people Like, No, the SPOC did something crazy, and I don't think that the charges specifically are valid, but like they open themselves up to get fucked with by doing something so not like give one of these people a million dollars a million dollars.

what you know, I would say ours should be. And I think this is something that this administration is going to continue to sort of in some ways use as a rift point, like the fact that these groups are doing all of this unhinged shit, right, this is this is the political consequence of the structure that these NGOs use in the way that they've operated, and now there's sort of chickens are coming home to roost.

Department of Homeland Security. Right. The idea has been keep enforcement and processing separate so that people don't have very reasonable reasons to fear doing the legal process. Right, So people continue to show up to their interviews, to submit their documents, etc. And generally they are funded in a large part by immigration fees and perceived as the friendly

and more welcoming side of the process. Their job isn't historically has not been to kind of root out bad migration as so much as to help people, or at least to process people to do the bureaucratic part of migration. Under the second Trump administration, however, this has changed. There have been detentions at interviews, there have been cancelations of

citizenships ceremonies. The USCAS has begun hiring for a new position, and this new position is eligible for remote work, for more remote work than existing hires, and it's called the Homeland Defender. So like we probably many people have seen

these Homeland Defender advertisements on x dot com the everything website. Right, Homeland Defenders been offered up to fifty thousand dollars in signing bonuses, and at the same time as offering remote work benefits for the Homeland Defenders, the agency has been forcing other people to return to offices that could no longer fit the number of staff it had and the

years of work from home. The agency grew and changed right like almost every organization did, and there were reports that you literally had like lawyers sitting in corridors working on their laptops or like trying to perch on a radiator or window sill because their offices could fit people right. And at the same time, the branding around Homeland Defender is not the way that USCIS staff traditionally saw themselves.

In Minnesota, USCAS has begun reinvestigating people admitted with the incredibly highly vetted refugee status, so we already spoke about it once today. Right, the refugees are vetted before they even enter the United States. Across the country, executive orders were followed with memos pausing or entirely stopping the process of legal and veted immigration for people from an increasing

number of countries. The legally mandated green cards for adult children and siblings or current citistants, as well as spouses and minor children of existing permanent residents has gone unfulfilled. This is quote unquote family based migration. They used to call it chain migration. Right. That used to be the language on the right. It's something that Trump administration has hated since its first term. Right, this has been a thing that they spoke about and that has been spoken

about on the right for some time. These green cards could be reused for employment based claims, which is going to have a much larger number of people who are already in the country. It's not bringing new people in or they might go unused. Refugees are being detained without

any clear legal authority and requizzed about their applications. According to reporting in The New Yorker, this means that people are being taken in detained at an ice facility right and then quiz about stuff that they'd already been asked about before they came to the United States. When they were doing that vetting, people who are married to United States citizens are being arrested at interviews, even though generally there was an amnesty of people who, for instance, had

overstate a visa and then got married before. USCIS has also committed significant resources of the agency that may well have been taken away from processing claims and devoted them entirely to investigating naturalizations with the goal of denaturalizing naturalized United States citizens. This is very differ got process right. The Afreem case is the Supreme Court case which governs this right. It where refers to someone who was a

Jewish communist or had been in Israel. What it says is the government cannot de citizenize someone because it doesn't agree with their politics, even in the time of anti communism. Right. Once somebody becomes a citizen, their files are removed from USCIS and they go to the National Record Center, and so calling the presumably tens of thousands of files of naturalized United States citizens and hundreds of thousands over time

millions right would require some kind of filter. The most likely way this is being filtered is through their nationality right. One can imagine, for instance, that the seventy five countries Trump has paused green card processes for might be a start, or their specific focus on Somali people might even prove

a more focused way of doing it right. They have had some success this week, a Belizean woman was found guilty of naturalization fraud for submitting a fake divorce degree she married an American citizen without being divorced from a previous spouse. Belize they found that she had falsified those documents right. They are also pursuing a case against a Nigerian man who's already been convicted of fraud and has already been put in prison for that, but they are

now pursuing a denaturalization case as well. Virtually every interaction with USCIS now seems to require interviews in person and biometric connection. This means that applicants now have to come into an office where they know that people have been detained, and this leads to people being afraid to do that right.

Petitions are slowing down as they're moved around to a dwindling workforce which is still focused on processing those as opposed to the growing amount of the USCIS workforce which is looking for quote unquote fraud in applications or attempting to denaturalize people. As we just covered, among the people waiting without visas are some people who are waiting for special visas, which are given to people who are survivors of human trafficking, gender based violence, or other crimes. This

includes children. There's especially immigrant Juvenile visa, which every single person I've heard of coming on an SIJA visa has had things happen to them which I didn't struggle to think about. That we keep you up at night, and the thought that those people are waiting in limbo because they're trying to denaturalize people is particularly upsetting. I'm sure it's also upsetting to some people who've worked at USCIS their whole life, and I know that morale among those

people is pretty low. While the agency sort of has changed beyond all recognition in the last couple of years. Talking of changing beyond all recognition, we're going to now pivot from journalism to probably some adverts for online Yeah, it would be shocking and jarring.

basically the temporary Federal Reserve Chair after his term expired. Now, the reason this is happening is because Trump's attempt to get someone confirmed to replace Powell has not been going well, and if no one is confirmed by May fifteenth, then the office is just empty. And Powell has said that he wants to stay on and become the temporary chair.

This is sort of unprecedented, but then again, we've also not ever had the president's open an investigation into the sitting chair of the Federal Reserve, causing him to give a reverse hostage video. So where things are right now is that we are getting hearings on Trump's preferred nominee, a man named Kevin Walsh. However, there is a real problem with worsh as as a candidate that's not doesn't have anything to do with who he is. We'll get

to that in a second. The biggest issue that Trump is facing here is that Tom Tillis, who's an outgoing Republican Senator, is refusing to let any Trump appointee pass through the Finance Committee unless Trump ends the investigation into Jerome Powell. So this has had everything at a complete standstill.

It was sort of unclear though a lot of different Republican senators had threatened to do something like this, But because Tillis is just leaving, he's just he's retiring at the end of this, at the end of the session. He's the one who's you know, up there doing it. And this has ground the nomination to a halt. We're still getting hearings, but there's no way for him to actually get a vote to get get this process out

of committee. So into this morass steps Kevin Walsh, who he's not the most unhinged guy Trump could have picked high bar.

has not asked him to cut interest rates. And Elizabeth Warren, who has been sort of leading the Democratic charge against this, has pointed out a number of things, one of which is in workerboard. He gets some more of the weird shit with him in a second. But one of the major things here is that the President has said that he's asked Worsh to do just rate cuts. So somebody's lying here. Worsh isn't giving non answers about that. I'm also just going to read this quote from the Associated

Press quote. Warren also noted that Worsh has not disclosed all of his financial holdings, which include investments in startups and private companies, or the size of those financial stakes. For example, Worsh has said he has holdings in SpaceX and polymarkets, but has not said how large those investments are.

the investigation is dropped. Tillis and some other members of the committee have been Republican members of the committee have been talking about this scheme to get the investigation transferred from the Department of Justice to the Senate Committee. I think at which point they could basically just kill it or just have it be a thing into budget overruns. That's not like an attempt to depose their own Powell. That's it's not clear what's going to happen with that,

and it hasn't started yet. This is the point that we're at right now. This conflict is going to keep heating up as the May fifteenth deadline for getting a new nominee in before the board vacancy happens and Jerome Powell basically stays in power longer than his terminally last happens.

So we're going to keep following this story. And there's one other story that we are going to keep following, which is there was an exclusive by the Wall Street Journal, which is a report This is from unioned US officials, but it claims that the uas Central Bank governor is reportedly trying to get what's called a currency swap with

the US. So what a currency swap is basically is, it's like it's a way to try to fix an exchange rate and get a country a certain amount of US dollars by just like just at the fixed exchange rate, just like swapping X amount of dollars for x amounts of another country's currency. This report was immediately denied, very very quickly denied by a series of posts on x the everything app by the UAE's embassy to the US where they gave a thing. Trump also had like started

talking about this too. I'm just gonna read a little bit of this quote. We very much appreciate President Trump's recognition of the UAE is one of America's most important economic and trade partners. That recognition reflects a depth the mutual trust based on mutual investment, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Any suggestion that the UAE requires external financial

backing misreads the facts. The UAE is one of the most financially resilient economies, underpinned by more than two trillion dollars in the sovereign assets, more than three hundred billion dollars in foreign currency reserves held by the UAE Central Bank and banking sectors with approximately one point five trillion in deposits. So when they start listening out the deposits, that's when things are not going great.

the war and Iran in sight. And if the strade out from Moves remains closed, this is an existential crisis for the UAE because not only are all of their exports stopped, you know, like the UE itself is just physically under threat, is infrastructure is under threat, and it's

very difficult for them to get more investments. And this could in the future start a dollar crisis of the kind that we've talked about on this show before Go if you want to, Yeah, I've talked about basically dollar crises and how you can have balance of payments crises

for running out of US dollars. What's interesting about this reports and the reason that we're sort of talking about it right now, is that one of the things that the UAE reportedly was mentioning was that they might be forced to turn the Chinese currency.

long term prospects, going we're completely screwed. They're going, oh, well, don't If you don't just hand us a bunch of money, we're going to have to start looking at the underpinnings of you know, American imperial power. So we're going to continue to see where this goes. As this war continues in asces stray continues to be blocked, countries around the

world are going to become more and more desperate. As the economic consequences of this ripples out across the world, We're probably going to start seeing more things like this. And at some point, if it becomes clear that the war is not going to end. In Trump's early week announcement that the ceasefires are going to keep going, stops being able to keep the stock markets from being up. We're going to start seeing an even wider spread impact of this. But this is a bleak sign from staunch us ally.

percent match to surveillance video of the bomber. Oh god. This lawsuit claims five counts of defamation and one count of defamation by implication, and Kerkhoff is requesting a jury trial. The documents claim that the Blaze report targeted her because of her actions on January sixth as a police officer and testimony she gave against insurrectionists in court, and part of the intention of targeting her was to build on this larger idea that the defendants had that January sixth

was a quote unquote inside job. As these reports were getting published by The Blaze, Glenn Beck said on his show, quote, this is one of the biggest stories. I think it is the biggest scandal of my lifetime, maybe in the last one hundred years. Monstrous, bigger than Watergate. Pullit surprise winning stuff.

in the future difficult or impossible to pass. One of the journalists was fired by the Blaze on April first, just earlier this month, and the other resigned two days later. They have since raised over twenty thousand dollars since leaving the Blaze to continue their claims on a new independent website that they're launching.

read from the document quote. The agents claimed that they were primarily looking for shoes agents edited their vehicles with their guns drawn in full tactical gear. An agent called mister Dickert, who is the plaintiff's boyfrien, and commanded him to quote, come out of the house unarmed with your dogs. Mister Dickard and missus Kirkhoff complied and stepped outside. Agents swept through the house, then re entered with bomb sniffing dogs.

They opened cabinets, rifled through drawers, and scattered Missus Kirkhoff's and mister Dickard's belongings, all without obtaining Miss Kirkhoff's or mister Dickard's consent. It suddenly occurred to Miss Kirkhoff that they were not simply looking for a pair of shoes.

office would take longer than the interview itself. This was not true. The interview lasted almost three hours. Agents repeatedly accused the plaintiff of placing the bombs and continually asserted her guilt. Part Way through the interview, the interrogator changed out the tubes on the polygraph because they quote did not like how they were reading unquote.

the bomber. A day later, the Blaze published a report explicitly naming her as the bombing suspect, something they already alluded to in previous reporting, which sparked the online chatter, which caused the FBI to search her home and interrogate her. This was all intentional on the part of the Blaze.

According to this court document, the defendants, these quote unquote journalists purposely forwarded a tip to the Office of the Director National Intelligence in an attempt to get quote unquote coroboration of their reporting from sources inside the government by getting the plaintiff placed under investigation prior to their publishing of the articles identifying her as the bomber that this was This was basically all.

suspect unquote. This was another article on The Blaze saying that Gate analysis showed that Brian Cole Junior, the actual suspect who has been arrested, does not match the Gate does does not does not have a positive Gate analysis match to the surveillance footage from that night.

evidence that they were right all along. The plaintiff continues to deal with doxing and death threads as a result from the subpoena and the quote unuote journalists continued reporting spreading claims that she is in fact the real bomber. So Kirkoff is requesting a jury trial with these six counts of defamation, and I hope she gets a lot of money from everyone involved in this.

media networks. Visiting and posting on x the Everything app and Facebook have seen like a nearly fifty percent drops, a significant decline among like the youngest and the oldest users on social media, particularly like people over sixty five and people from eighteen to twenty four have seen like the biggest decline and like the time that they've actually

spent on site. I'm going to be doing something more detailed about this in the future, but a lot of what you're seeing from these big social media companies and these like big pit It's right, are moves in desperation. This is not working as well as it used to. The economics that wants underpin this system are falling apart.

None of these companies are as profitable as they used to be, and people are pulling away from social media, particularly from like a lot of the text based social media sites which were never as profitable as like short form video was. So I don't know, that's something that made me less bummed.

some time. Albeit the Hunter has successfully launched munitions into Thailand several times now, and they are really like if you want to look at the frontline of people's autonomy against autocracy, against dictatorship, against tyranny, like, they are at it, and they need money to sustain their efforts, to feed themselves,

to equip themselves, to buy medical equipment. And I think they're also trying to buy a replacement helmets and body armor because they're getting hit by drones right and people have survival injuries, but their armor is destroyed.
