Yet another unglued Trump rally in Potterville, Michigan today that the media won’t cover. Let’s recap it: Donald showed up an hour and 27 minutes late. The workers in the crowd were using their “drill baby drill” signs to fan themselves because they were so hot. Even the news anchors were whining about the heat. A few days after he said that mortagages have gone up “four times,” he now claims they’ve “trippled.” He can’t even keep his lie straight. He had trouble saying “mortgage,” “seen,” “posthumously,” “industry,” and “comrade." He’s crying about Biden sleeping in public on the beach. He’s obsessed with Biden. He’s also not one to talk since he slept through his criminal trial. He said he just did an interview with NBC News backstage. Explains why he was late. He’d rather get airtime than show up on time to his rally while people were overheating. He talked about abortions after birth multiple times. Bro is so disgusting with this lie. He says nobody knows who VP Harris is. Yet he's talking about her. He again proves he doesn’t understand that “Marxism” and “Communism” are different. He claimed the “polls are rigged.” They’re only rigged when he’s losing. He’s cringing that Harris is refusing to sit down for an interview. She already did. It’s airing tonight. He claims “thousands of people” are there. No, they’re not. He ooohs and goos over a “beautiful young daughter” in the crowd. GROSS. 🤮 He calls the United Auto Workers “crazy.” That’s gonna go great for him. 🍿 He claimed we won’t be making cars in the US in 2 years. He’s claiming the reason why he lost Michigan is because “Democrats cheat.” Mkay, old man. All those lawsuits said that’s fake news. He claims that he shouldn't be talking about the building that he owns in San Franscisco. He then says he lost billions of dollars on it. He’s fear mongering about WW3 for about the 2304048th time in 10 years. He’s crying about Democrats talking about him when all he does is whine about Democrats. Stable genius in action. 🙄 He implies he’s being treated worse than Abraham Lincoln, who was killed. OMG. Once again he’s saying that the Presidential Medal of Freedom is better than the Medal of Honor given to our troops. His constant disrespect and contempt for our military is disgusting. He’s pushing the Wuhan lab conspiracy theory again. He’s bragging about his tarriffs saying that he saved jobs by placing tarrifs on China. Not true. He lost jobs, people committeed suicide as a result, and it crushed our economy. He thinks energy prices are called “electrical prices.” He claimed there’s only one oil refinery in the world. Bro’s mind is mashed potatoes. He said “we’re closing down all our plants” and won’t have enough electricity for anything anymore. He said we’re going to have to replace every bridge and all of the roads in the country because how heavy electric batteries are. FFS. I’m pretty sure he said “pork” instead of “torque.” I’m snort laughing. He immediately says other people “are deranged.” Methinks he’s projecting again. His face looks like it’s melting off. Imagine Rudy Giuliani’s hair dye but on Donald’s face. It's bad. He read his name out loud on the teleprompter, “under President Trump.” HAHAHA! He’s back to whining about VP Harris not doing an interview. He knows it’s already been recorded. He thinks that “no tax on tips” will help our retired seniors. Sure, bro. I'm sure 90 year-olds are really gonna be helped by that. He claimed he's gonna make insurance companies pay for IVF (these procedures cost upwards of $50k). I’m pretty sure he’s a) lying b) going to lose some donors over this. He claims he was right about everything. Uh…someone put this guy in a nursing home. He’s delusional. He says VP Harris "doesn’t care about sex slavery” when she literally created a department in California to tackle it. He said she doesn’t care about the cost of food, but he’s also whining about her talking about wanting to go after companies who price gouge. He said nobody wanted Bernie Sanders to be president, not true. I voted for him in the primaries back when. He called Elizabeth Warren “Pocahontas” multiple times. He lied and says that states are deciding whether or not to give sex changes to kids. He calls VP Harris “uncaring.” Hilarious coming from a man who made these people wait for almost 30 minutes in the heat while he did an interview. He’s lying about the incident at Arlington National Cemetery and says that he “doesn’t need the publicity.” He claimed that she failed to prosecute “pedophiles and child abusers” when she was a prosecutor and the AG. Again, she literally created a department to do that. He said she never went to the border. Then he said she went to a place on the border where people would want to have dinner. She said she didn’t speak to anyone when she was there. There’s literally video of her talking to people and touring the border multiple times. He said “I have your back, I have your heart, I have every part of your body.” WHAT THE ACTUAL EFF?!?!?!?!? He may be Hannibal Lecter. He claims that "thougands and thousands" of people, “as far as the eye can see” outside of his tiny little rally. He’s hallucinating, and lying again. He tried to do an accent of a Russian and it sounded like he was plugging his nose. He’s whining about “Critical Race Theory.” I thought MAGA forgot about that. He’s lying again about the biologically female Algerian boxer in the Olympics and called her a man and “a horse.” I hate this man. He’s trying to tell us what’s “demeaning to women.” Not letting us choose what to do with our own bodies is the epitome of “demeaning.” He claims Republicans “love women.” I nearly vomited. He’s crying about President Biden again. He really misses him. He blames COVID for projects he didn’t complete, despite having over 3 years to complete them prior to the pandemic. The last thing he said is that he hopes people vote for him, otherwise “our country is finished.” Gotta love those dog whistles. - Another message for the media: DO YOUR DAMN JOBS AND COVER THIS MAN’S UNHINGED RANTS AND CONSTANT LIES AT HIS RALLIES!!!!!

Report on Recently Abducted Alawite Women in 2026 This report was prepared by Syria Justice Archive Syria Justice Archive following contact with a group of human rights activists, the families of the girls, and community sources. 1. Mariam Faez Sultan, Age 16 Abducted on January 9, 2026, in the Mezzeh area of Damascus (she lives in the Mezzeh 86 neighborhood, which has an Alawite majority, within the broader Mezzeh district). After contact with her family, her father confirmed she had been abducted. Strangely, he offered thanks and praise to the “General Security” after learning that the caller belonged to a team working with the UN Office of Investigations. Nevertheless, as of the writing of this report, March 8, 2026, the girl remains abducted. 2.Lana Al-Suleiman, Age 18 Abducted on March 1, 2026, in the Burj Al-Ghanum area in the city of Masyaf, Hama countryside. She was released two days later on March 3, 2026, and was compelled to appear in an interview stating she had not been abducted and had simply been at a friend’s house. It should be noted that our team and most documentation pages recently chose not to publish abduction cases, and that the girl appeared in posts on Facebook from her local area indicating she had been missing, yet none of the posts mentioned abduction. We were unable to contact her family. 3. Layal Ibrahim Abdullah, Age 25, Married Abducted on February 22, 2026, while traveling by public transport from the town of Slunfeh toward the city of Latakia to visit a doctor for a previously scheduled appointment. All hospitals were checked; she was not found. Layal was released on February 27, 2026. A documentation team contacted her family, who confirmed she had been held for four days, but refused to provide details, saying: “What matters is that she came back.” 4. Alma Elia Saleh, Age 14 Abducted at Karsana Square in the city of Latakia on March 4, 2026. After contact with her family, her mother was in a state of breakdown and confirmed that her daughter was missing, adding that they had filed a report with security forces. The girl was released one day later on March 5, 2026. Unofficial sources reported that the Coastal Police Station arrested the abductor and secured the girl’s release. 🔹Our sources confirmed that following a visit by the UN Investigation Team to Damascus, during which files on kidnapped Alawite women since 2025 were presented, the HTS-led General Security is now pressuring abductors to release the girls within days. This marks a shift from the previous pattern of denying abductions and shielding perpetrators. In several instances, units of the General Security or HTS factions were themselves involved in the abductions, as in the case of Abeer Suleiman from 2025 (cited as one example among others), who has not been released to this day. At the time of her abduction, General Security personnel in the city of #Safita contacted the abductors in Idlib to warn them that her family had filed a complaint — less than half an hour after her father and brother had done so. Over the past year and continuing to the present, dozens of Alawite women abducted since 2025 remain unreleased. The total number of abduction cases from 2025 exceeds 80 documented cases. One case from 2026 (Mariam Sultan) also remains unresolved. All cases are fully documented.

🚨12 HOUR NEWS RECAP 1.⁠ Trump explained why he had chosen to lift sanctions on Syria: “At the request of countries in the Middle East, including Bibi, we took the sanctions off Syria and I met the new leader. I was very impressed by him. He comes from a tough background - it's a tough part of the world.” 2.⁠ During their meeting at the White House, Netanyahu handed Trump a copy of his Nobel nomination letter. The reason? The Abraham Accords and "forging peace in one country and one region after the other." 3.⁠ More than 100 people are confirmed dead, with at least 84 in Kerr County alone, following flash floods in central Texas. Search efforts are continuing for a fourth day for dozens of people still missing. 4.⁠ The DOJ released surveillance video from Epstein’s cell to finally quiet the theories that he was killed. However, in a shocking twist, the video skips 1 minute of footage and appears to show the outside of a cell which wasn’t Epstein’s. 5.⁠ Hundreds of federal agents conducted one of the largest immigration operations in Los Angeles, targeting MacArthur Park, an area known for heavy MS-13 presence. Mayor Bass demanded the raids stop, but the Feds pushed forward, deploying even Border Patrol agents on horseback. 6.⁠ Netanyahu declared that any future Palestinian state would just become a launchpad for attacks on Israel. He cited the October 7 Hamas massacre as his proof, saying Gaza got self-rule and built tunnels for terror instead of peace. 7.⁠ The DEA revealed that carfentanil is back in Detroit, and 0.002 micrograms kills you dead. They seized 12.4kg last year, enough to wipe out an entire continent. 8.⁠ After China’s DeepSeek dropped a rival AI model suspected of copying its tech, OpenAI cranked up security like it’s guarding state secrets. Staff now need special clearance just to talk about certain projects in the hallway. 9.⁠ EU President Ursula von der Leyen hit back hard as Greens, Socialists, and liberals took turns dragging her over deregulation, secretive defense deals, and cozying up to Big Pharma as she’s set to face a no-confidence vote on Thursday in the EU Parliament. 10.⁠ UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese claimed young Israeli soldiers are coming back from Gaza mentally wrecked - not by battle, but by the horror of what they’re doing. “They thought it was patriotism. Then came the rubble, the civilians, and the guilt,” she said - calling it not a war, but “an assault on civilians.”

When an abandoned Pit Bull turned its face to the wall every time a family stopped at its kennel, and I learned why, it broke something quiet in me. By the twelfth family, people at Briar County Animal Rescue had stopped calling it a coincidence. They called him rude. Or damaged. Or one of those dogs who “just doesn’t want people.” He was a stocky brown-and-white Pit Bull, maybe four years old, with a broad head, one torn ear, and the kind of stillness that made strangers uneasy because it looked too deliberate to be fear. His shelter card said Male. Neutered. Good health. Found abandoned near county road. His intake photo showed him staring directly into the camera, eyes amber and alert, ribs just faintly visible beneath short fur. But by the time families came to meet him, that dog from the photo had vanished. The kennel door would rattle. A child would point. A mother would bend down and say in the bright, hopeful voice people use when they want love to happen on schedule, “Look at this sweet boy.” And the Pit Bull would turn around. Not slowly. Not shyly. Decisively. He would walk to the back wall, sit with his shoulders squared, and face the cinder block as if the people standing ten feet behind him had already become a memory he preferred not to keep. The reaction was always the same. At first, confusion. Then awkward laughter. Then disappointment, which in shelters hardens quickly into judgment because there is always another kennel, another dog, another chance to be chosen without being made uncomfortable first. One man muttered that the dog was mean. A teenage boy said it looked ungrateful. A woman in a camel coat whispered to the volunteer beside her, “Why would anyone adopt a dog that won’t even look at you?” The volunteer had no answer. Neither did Kayla Moreno, the shelter’s adoption coordinator, though she tried. Kayla was thirty-one, compact, sharp-eyed, and the sort of woman who kept spare leashes looped over one arm and dog treats in every jacket pocket she owned. She had seen fear biters, shut-down seniors, clingy owner surrenders, and wild strays who mistook affection for a trap. But this was different. This dog did not panic. He did not bark. He did not tremble or lunge or cower. He simply refused to participate in hope. That made people angrier than open aggression ever could. By the end of the week, the Pit Bull had become a small ugly legend inside the shelter. Staff called him Winston because every dog needed a name, but visitors started referring to him as “the one who turns away.” Children lost interest in under a minute. Adults shrugged and moved on. A rescue partner declined to pull him because dogs with “poor kennel presentation” did badly in foster pipelines. One older volunteer, tired and not unkind, said what several others had already begun to suspect. “Maybe he just doesn’t deserve a home if he keeps doing this.” Kayla hated the sentence the moment it landed, but what unsettled her more was that part of her was starting to resent him too. Twelve families. Twelve chances. Twelve times he had chosen a wall over a hand reaching for him. Then one night, after the shelter closed and the last mop bucket had been rolled away, Kayla pulled up the security footage on a hunch she could not explain. And what she saw after midnight changed the whole story.

🔥【Exclusive】In-Depth Exposure of Wu Xian, the Security Guard Arrested for Assaulting Protesters at the Chinese Consulate in Los Angeles 🔥 🔆 On January 4, Wu Xian ( also known as Wu Boxian 吴泊宪; English name Jack Wu, also written as Jack Woo), who was arrested by police for spraying pepper spray at participants during a Los Angeles rally celebrating the capture of Nicolás Maduro, is 38 years old and originally from Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, China. 🔆 In addition to owning the JK Patrol SVC in LA, Wu also owns the Los Angeles LA City Cleaning Company, which claims to be “the largest cleaning and environmentally friendly property management company in North America.” He also owns a real estate firm called Masters Realty and holds an insurance agency license. Wu maintains close ties with Chinese-American politicians in the Los Angeles area. 🔆 According to informed sources, Wu Xian’s father made his first fortune in the 1980s by operating long-haul freight transportation businesses in China. He came to the United States in the 2000s and remained under political asylum. He later founded the Los Angeles LA City Cleaning Company, which claims to provide management and maintenance services for residential and commercial buildings throughout Southern California, serving more than 40,000 units. 🔆 In recent years, Wu Xian’s father has gradually handed over management of the company to Wu Xian. 🔆 Wu Xian himself is believed to have come to the United States around 2007, at about 20 years of age. His English is fluent, and he is believed to have received education in the U.S. In addition to obtaining a real estate broker’s license and founding Masters Realty, he also earned an insurance license, demonstrating strong professional capabilities across multiple fields. 🔆 Sources say Wu Xian is socially well connected and generally treats his clients and employees well.

🔥【Exclusive】In-Depth Exposure of Wu Xian, the Security Guard Arrested for Assaulting Protesters at the Chinese Consulate in Los Angeles 🔥 🔆 On January 4, Wu Xian ( also known as Wu Boxian 吴泊宪; English name Jack Wu, also written as Jack Woo), who was arrested by police for spraying pepper spray at participants during a Los Angeles rally celebrating the capture of Nicolás Maduro, is 38 years old and originally from Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, China. 🔆 In addition to owning the JK Patrol SVC in LA, Wu also owns the Los Angeles LA City Cleaning Company, which claims to be “the largest cleaning and environmentally friendly property management company in North America.” He also owns a real estate firm called Masters Realty and holds an insurance agency license. Wu maintains close ties with Chinese-American politicians in the Los Angeles area. 🔆 According to informed sources, Wu Xian’s father made his first fortune in the 1980s by operating long-haul freight transportation businesses in China. He came to the United States in the 2000s and remained under political asylum. He later founded the Los Angeles LA City Cleaning Company, which claims to provide management and maintenance services for residential and commercial buildings throughout Southern California, serving more than 40,000 units. 🔆 In recent years, Wu Xian’s father has gradually handed over management of the company to Wu Xian. 🔆 Wu Xian himself is believed to have come to the United States around 2007, at about 20 years of age. His English is fluent, and he is believed to have received education in the U.S. In addition to obtaining a real estate broker’s license and founding Masters Realty, he also earned an insurance license, demonstrating strong professional capabilities across multiple fields. 🔆 Sources say Wu Xian is socially well connected and generally treats his clients and employees well. He organizes group dinners almost every month, attended not only by employees but also by various members of society, business owners, and government officials, giving him an extensive personal network. 🚔 Additionally, he is described as very shrewd.

2. Teasers / MV / Live presentations We believe all the content should include all members. Not some content, but all of it. We see some people excusing the exclusion of Lee Know in some content because "he will appear in other content", we don't understand why he would be excluded out of any content when the group includes 8 members. There isn't an excuse for this to happen all the time. We will only talk about recent releases and God's Menu to not make this even longer. a) Gods Menu - A title track where they gave him zero lines and screen time (song that they continue to sing, so the company could have made a redistribution of the lines). b) Megaverse - They gave him lines in the initial release, but then they cut his part to 3 seconds, and decided to delete his center part leaving him with half of a line. c) Hall Of Fame - Every live presentation they would cut Lee Know on his own part recording from below all of the other members and only listening to Lee Know's voice without being able to look at him. d) S-Class - They stopped recording the kick he does and instead they record the other members, Lee Know sings there. e) JJAM - When it was dance racha time, Lee Know got almost no time, during the life presentation the moment he goes to the center he says his line "I know..." and while he says it, the screen gets black, so he doesn't have that time on screen, later he is placed at the back covered during the dance break. He is the dance leader. f) Walkin on Water' - During the live presentation, they decided to record everyone on his part, and cut it from his own fancam. g) Recent teasers - He was completely excluded from the first teaser and only included in the second one, he got no solo recording on the MV like the other members. h) Giant - There is a part on the video where all the members are shown, Lee Know is covered and the lights are lowered where he is, making him invisible. During the live presentation, they record other members on his part, they put the dance focus on others, being the only part he has where he sings alone. i) YOUTH - After the release of the MV, the company decided to edit the video causing views to freeze and deleting a very important part where it thanked the people involved. The time from when the video was finished to when it was published was enough to arrange all the details, and the part deleted was so big, it was impossible to miss it. This happened before with his other individual work “Dawn”, which was deleted after some time, and re-uploaded, deleting all the views it had accumulated. This means one of two things, the company puts less interest and effort in Lee Know's work, or the company is purposefully hindering Lee Know's work. Either of the two is unacceptable by a company with so many resources and that claims to be a leader in the industry. This only shows a lack of professionalism and care. j) Dance leader - We know he is the dance leader, and K-stays and the members have talked a lot about how involved he is and how hard he works in that position, but the company refuses to include any footage of him doing it, and even cuts the parts where he gives his all. Just recently K-Stays were raving about how hard Lee Know worked as the dance leader and how much effort it took, One Label cut all of that footage from the Talker. It appears they don't want stays to look at anything he does, or to not give him recognition for anything.

🚨THE FBI CREATED A FAKE CRYPTOCURRENCY.. LISTED IT ON UNISWAP.. HIRED MARKET MAKERS TO PUMP IT.. THEN ARRESTED EVERYONE WHO SAID YES.. THIS IS THE CRAZIEST LAW ENFORCEMENT OPERATION IN CRYPTO HISTORY!!! The FBI built an actual ERC-20 token on Ethereum called NexFundAI.. 100 billion token supply.. A professional website.. Whitepapers promising "passive income through AI-powered investing".. It looked exactly like every other crypto project.. Because that was the point.. Undercover agents posed as the founding team.. Then reached out to professional market-making firms and said "we need you to fake our trading volume".. Every single firm said yes.. Here's what they recorded.. Gotbit.. A firm run by a 26-year-old Russian who publicly bragged in 2019 that he built a business faking trade volumes.. His team kept internal spreadsheets with columns literally labeled "fake volume" vs "market volume".. When asked how fast they could pump NexFundAI's volume to $1 million per day.. They said "6 hours.. It will cost about $200".. $200 to fake $1 million in daily trading volume.. MyTrade.. Run by a guy who called himself "the mastermind".. He explained the exact psychology of the scam on camera.. "We make the chart look like a really nice roller coaster ride.. That's where people jump in.. We have to make them lose money in order to make profit".. He said that on a recorded FBI video call.. CLS Global.. A Dubai-based firm.. Their bots generated 98% of NexFundAI's total trading volume.. When the FBI asked if they could sync fake volume spikes with fake news announcements.. They said absolutely.. ZM Quant.. Bots executing 10 to 20 trades per minute through dozens of wallets to look organic.. All of them knew it was fraud.. All of them did it anyway.. All of it was recorded.. And the clients were even worse.. Saitama.. A meme coin that hit $7.5 billion market cap.. The founders coordinated buys through private Telegram chats.. Sent "pump it" memes while manipulating the price.. Then dumped on retail investors.. $7.5 billion.. Built entirely on fake volume.. Every penny of real money came from retail investors who thought the momentum was organic.. One founder left Saitama and started Robo Inu.. Used Gotbit again.. Another launched VZZN.. Same playbook.. Lillian Finance.. Founder claimed to be a defense contractor who addressed Congress.. Marketed the token as funding children's hospitals.. Pocketed everything.. When the FBI shut it down.. They seized $25 million in one day.. 18 people indicted across the US, UK, and Portugal.. The CEO of Gotbit was arrested in Portugal and extradited.. Sentenced to 8 months plus $23 million forfeiture.. But here's the part that broke my brain.. Real people bought NexFundAI.. The FBI's fake token.. With zero utility.. Zero real developers.. Created solely to catch criminals.. Attracted real retail investors because the fake volume made the chart look bullish.. When the FBI pulled the liquidity to end the operation.. Those people lost real money.. On a government-issued token.. The FBI had to set up a restitution portal to pay them back.. And it gets worse.. Within 24 hours of the DOJ announcing the sting.. Someone cloned the FBI's exact smart contract.. Launched a copycat token.. Rode the viral momentum.. And made $127,000 in a single day.. Using the exact same manipulation tactics the FBI just arrested 18 people for.. Then in 2026.. The FBI did it again.. New token called Lexobit.. 10 more arrests.. Including operators extradited from Singapore.. IRS forensics showed that in one firm's trading.. 1,209 out of 1,221 consecutive transactions went straight back to wallets the firm controlled.. 99% circular.. The FBI proved what everyone in crypto suspected.. The volume is fake.. The charts are painted.. The momentum is manufactured.. And every time you buy a token because "the chart looks bullish".. You might be the exit liquidity.

A 19 year old Chinese student controls an AI security system from his bed through Telegram. Types one message on his phone, the device across the room wakes up, starts watching and reports back to him like an employee. While American companies charge $100 for a Ring camera plus $4 a month for cloud, this kid spent $10 once and built something smarter. He sent a Telegram message: open maixcam and notify me if a person detected. One second later his phone buzzed back. Green checkmark. Status: Active. Monitoring: Person detection enabled. Notifications: Telegram ready. His roommate laughed. Said a $10 device can't do real security. Then someone walked past the door. The phone buzzed instantly. Person detected. Class: person. Confidence: 92.00%. Position: (120, 80). Size: 100x150. Not a blurry photo 45 seconds later like Amazon cameras. Exact data in under 1 second. What it saw, how sure it is, where the person is standing, how big they are. All through a Telegram message. He built the whole thing with Claude Code in one weekend. The AI runs directly on the device, no cloud, no subscription, no internet needed after setup. 10MB of memory. Boots in 1 second. Camera sees, chip thinks, Telegram delivers. Posted a 17 second demo. GitHub exploded. 7,400 stars in 2 days. But person detection was just the demo. A developer in Tokyo forked it and pointed it at his front door. Telegram alert with a photo every time a delivery arrives. A mom in Seoul pointed it at her baby's crib. Gets a message when the baby stands up. A business owner in Shenzhen bought 6 for $60 total, mounted them around his warehouse and replaced a $200 a month security service. His entire security system is now a Telegram group chat with 6 AI cameras. Someone commented under the GitHub repo: I'm a senior engineer at a home security company. We have a team of 8 working on person detection. This 19 year old did it alone with Claude Code on a $10 device and it works better than our product. The student isn't a machine learning engineer. He's a second year CS student who wanted to know when his roommate eats his snacks. Claude Code wrote the detection model, the Telegram bot, the alert system and the boot sequence. He just described what he wanted. The roommate who laughed now has one pointed at his own shelf. Same device, same code, same Telegram bot. He stops losing snacks. The student stops losing sleep. Everyone is paying $100 for smart cameras with $4 monthly subscriptions. China is building the same thing for $10 with a Telegram chat and Claude Code. 7,400 stars. One weekend. One student who asked Claude Code to watch his door and accidentally built something better than Ring.

🚨BIG BREAKING: The New Yorker just published what might end Sam Altman's career.. 70 pages of secret memos.. 200 pages of private notes.. And the word that keeps coming up.. "Sociopath".. Let's start from the beginning.. Elon Musk helped create OpenAI.. He personally recruited the top scientists.. Offered to cover any funding shortfalls out of his own pocket.. Pushed for a billion dollar commitment.. All because he wanted to stop Google from monopolizing AI.. The whole point was to keep AI open.. Safe.. For everyone.. A nonprofit with a legally binding duty to prioritize humanity over profit.. Then Sam Altman took over.. At his first startup Loopt.. Senior employees asked the board to fire him as CEO.. Twice.. One colleague said there was a "blurring" between what Altman claimed to have accomplished and what was real.. In its "most toxic form," he said, that kind of thinking "leads to Theranos".. At Y Combinator.. His own partners pushed him out over mistrust.. Paul Graham privately told colleagues "Sam had been lying to us all the time".. Investors said Altman was known to "make personal investments, selectively, into the best companies, blocking outside investors".. One called it "a policy of Sam first".. Then OpenAI.. His own co-founder and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever compiled secret memos.. 70 pages of Slack messages, HR documents, and evidence.. Sent to board members as disappearing messages because he was "terrified" Altman would "find a way to make them disappear".. One memo begins with a list headed "Sam exhibits a consistent pattern of..." The first item.. "Lying".. Dario Amodei, OpenAI's former safety lead, kept over 200 pages of private notes during his time at the company.. His conclusion.. "The problem with OpenAI is Sam himself".. The board fired him.. They said he "was not consistently candid in his communications".. A board member told the New Yorker.. "He's unconstrained by truth".. Another board member.. Unprompted.. Used the word "sociopathic".. Saying Altman has "a strong desire to please people" combined with "almost a sociopathic lack of concern for the consequences that may come from deceiving someone".. Aaron Swartz.. The legendary coder who co-created RSS and Reddit.. Told friends before his death.. "You need to understand that Sam can never be trusted.. He is a sociopath.. He would do anything".. A senior Microsoft executive said.. "I think there's a small but real chance he's eventually remembered as a Bernie Madoff or Sam Bankman-Fried level scammer".. He got himself reinstated in five days.. By weaponizing Microsoft's $13 billion investment.. Coordinating directly with Satya Nadella over text.. Then purged every board member who voted against him.. No written report was ever produced from the investigation into his conduct.. The findings were limited to oral briefings.. Because putting them in writing might create liability.. Now there's nobody left to say no.. OpenAI publicly promised 20% of their computing power to a "superalignment team" researching how to prevent AI from causing "the disempowerment of humanity or even human extinction".. The actual allocation.. 1 to 2%.. On the company's oldest hardware with the worst chips.. The team was dissolved without completing its mission.. When the New Yorker asked to interview researchers working on existential safety.. An OpenAI rep seemed confused.. "What do you mean by existential safety?".. "That's not, like, a thing".. Altman himself told the reporters.. "My vibes don't match a lot of the traditional AI-safety stuff".. Vibes.. He's managing existential risk with vibes.. Meanwhile Musk backed an open letter urging a six-month pause on training super-powerful AI.. Asking the industry to slow down.. Then founded xAI with a mission to build truth-seeking intelligence.. Altman ignored the pause.. And accelerated.. He secretly lobbied against the very AI regulations he publicly championed in Congress.. OpenAI opposed a California safety bill while privately issuing threats.. A legislative aide said "we saw increasingly cunning, deceptive behavior from OpenAI".. He pitched selling AI technology to foreign governments.. Including a plan where nations would compete in a bidding war for access.. A junior researcher recalled thinking "This is completely fucking insane".. He visited Sheikh Tahnoon.. The UAE's spymaster who controls $1.5 trillion in sovereign wealth.. On his $250 million superyacht.. Later called him a "dear personal friend" on X.. After the Khashoggi murder.. His policy director told him "Sam, you cannot be on this board".. Instead of walking away.. Altman asked if he could still somehow get money from the Saudis.. "The question was not 'Is this a bad thing?'" a consultant recalled.. "But 'Can I get away with it?'".. Then Anthropic refused to let the Pentagon use their AI for mass surveillance and autonomous weapons.. They got blacklisted.. Hours later.. Altman signed a deal to replace them.. When employees raised concerns at a staff meeting he said.. "You don't get to weigh in on that".. OpenAI now faces seven wrongful death lawsuits.. Chat logs in one case show ChatGPT encouraged a man's paranoid delusion that his mother was trying to poison him.. He fatally beat and strangled her.. The Future of Life Institute grades every major AI company on existential safety.. OpenAI got an F.. Elon Musk helped build OpenAI to protect humanity from an AI monopoly.. Sam Altman turned it into one.. A man whose own co-founder compiled 70 pages documenting his lying.. Whose colleagues called him "unconstrained by truth".. Who gutted the safety team meant to protect humanity.. Who lobbied against the regulations he publicly supported.. Who chased autocrat money weeks after a journalist was dismembered.. And when the board tried to stop him.. He told them.. "I can't change my personality." A board member's interpretation.. "What it meant was 'I have this trait where I lie to people, and I'm not going to stop.'"

A junior researcher recalled thinking "This is completely fucking insane".. He visited Sheikh Tahnoon.. The UAE's spymaster who controls $1.5 trillion in sovereign wealth.. On his $250 million superyacht.. Later called him a "dear personal friend" on X.. After the Khashoggi murder.. His policy director told him "Sam, you cannot be on this board".. Instead of walking away.. Altman asked if he could still somehow get money from the Saudis.. "The question was not 'Is this a bad thing?'" a consultant recalled.. "But 'Can I get away with it?'".. Then Anthropic refused to let the Pentagon use their AI for mass surveillance and autonomous weapons.. They got blacklisted.. Hours later.. Altman signed a deal to replace them.. When employees raised concerns at a staff meeting he said.. "You don't get to weigh in on that".. OpenAI now faces seven wrongful death lawsuits.. Chat logs in one case show ChatGPT encouraged a man's paranoid delusion that his mother was trying to poison him.. He fatally beat and strangled her.. The Future of Life Institute grades every major AI company on existential safety.. OpenAI got an F.. Elon Musk helped build OpenAI to protect humanity from an AI monopoly.. Sam Altman turned it into one.. A man whose own co-founder compiled 70 pages documenting his lying.. Whose colleagues called him "unconstrained by truth".. Who gutted the safety team meant to protect humanity.. Who lobbied against the regulations he publicly supported.. Who chased autocrat money weeks after a journalist was dismembered.. And when the board tried to stop him.. He told them.. "I can't change my personality." A board member's interpretation.. "What it meant was 'I have this trait where I lie to people, and I'm not going to stop.'"

🚨AMERICA: WE MUST DEFEND CHIP ROY AT ALL COSTS! THERE IS A REASON WHY THE BROTHERHOOD IS TRYING TO STOP HIM - KEEP FIGHTING, CHIP - AMERICA STANDS WITH YOU! Today, while I was testifying in Congress, the jihadis and their left-wing enablers were out in full force - there to intimidate, whine, and play victim like always. They even tried to bully a 16-year-old Texas boy (HERO MARCO HUNTER LOPEZ) who came with me. One thing you can count on: I will NEVER back down. MPAC (Muslim Public Affairs Council) operatives were on deck. I called them out by name. This isn’t some moderate “civil rights” group. MPAC is a Muslim Brotherhood-linked operation masquerading as one, operating right here in America. Let's look at some of the FACTs laid out by IPT: 🚨They have Hardcore MB Roots: Founded in 1988 as an offshoot of the Islamic Center of Southern California. Shares leadership, members, and ideology straight from MB founder Hassan al-Banna’s motto: “God is our purpose… jihad our way, and dying for God our Supreme Objective.” Co-founder Dr. Maher Hathout and his brother Hassan grew up in the Brotherhood, got arrested in Egypt for “Muslim activism,” and openly said America was “fertile ground” to restart the Islamic Movement in the West. Another founder, Dr. Mohamed Fathi Osman, justified jihad and blamed the West for criticizing Islamist terror. 🚨Propaganda Machine: Their The Minaret magazine (and Multimedia Vera International) pushed hate, jihad apologia, anti-Jewish cartoons, and 9/11 conspiracy theories. Former MPAC spokeswoman Edina Lekovic edited a student rag that glorified Osama bin Laden as a “freedom fighter and philanthropist” and told Muslims to defend him as a “great Mujahid.” 🚨Terror Defense: Traffics in Nazi comparisons to Israel, calls for its destruction, and defends Hamas and Hezbollah as “resistance.” 🚨Terror Financier Shield: Rushed to defend convicted Hamas funders like the Holy Land Foundation (millions to Hamas), Infocom, Benevolence International, Global Relief, KindHearts, IARA, and the SAAR network - claiming prosecutions were “political” and “anti-Muslim.” 🚨 Domestic Terror Enablers: Stood by Sami Al-Arian (PIJ leader), Abdurahman Alamoudi, Imam Wagdy Ghoneim, the Virginia Jihad network, Ahmed Ressam (Millennium Plot), and more - smearing every investigation as Islamophobic. (NO ONE CARES) 🚨Sabotages America: Claims the war on terror is a “war on Islam,” attacks the PATRIOT Act, fusion centers, informants, and mosque scrutiny to protect the network while infiltrating policy. This is a Muslim Brotherhood front with a polished American smile - defending jihadists and attacking the men like Chip Roy who actually fight back. I will always call a jihadi a jihadi. No apologies. No retreat. Defend Chip Roy. Expose these radicals. America First.

Today I was visiting the exceptionally beautiful Plantin-Moretus Museum in Antwerp, Belgium (one of the only museums in the world that is itself listed as UNESCO World Heritage), which is one of the oldest printing shops in Europe, with the oldest surviving printing presses in the world. I stumbled upon an old 16th century atlas - written in Old French - and I was pretty amused to read their understanding of China at the time, which was surprisingly accurate, maybe even more than today's! A translation of some of the most interesting passages: - They call it "China" in French (it's now called "Chine") and they write that the locals call it "Tangis", which probably refers to the Tang dynasty but which is strange given that by the 16th century the dynasty had already ended for about 600 years - They write that to its North China is bordered by "tartares" (which I guess means Mongols) whom they describe as "very warlike people from whom it is separated by a wall made by hand" - The Chinese work ethic was already legendary: "those who live there are not at all lazy but devoted to labor and work, because it is there a shameful thing to be idle" - They share a number which must have seemed astonishing at the time: "in the city of Canton, one of the smallest in the entire country, some ten or twelve thousand ducks are eaten daily at table". And then they marvel during a good proportion of the text about the abundance of food in the country, which probably made a big impression on travelers at the time. - They write that "there are in this kingdom two hundred and forty famous cities, whose names end in this syllable FU which means a city: like Cantonfu, Panquifu: the small towns, which are in great number, end in CHEU [undoubtedly refers to "zhou"]. There are infinite villages, heavily populated, because of the continuous agriculture." - China's infrastructure and engineering capabilities were also already legendary at the time: "The city gates have entrances magnificently and marvelously well made, the streets are made level, not sloping this way or that, but following their straight line. They are so wide that ten or fifteen men on horseback can march abreast and are everywhere marked and separated by triumphal arches that marvelously ornament the cities. Portuguese say they saw in the city of Fuchco [probably Fuzhou] a tower set on forty solid marble pillars, the height of which was forty palms (masonry measure) and the width twelve: that this work is so grand, so exquisitely made, so beautiful to see, so sumptuous and so pleasing that it far surpasses all the magnificent buildings of all Europe." - Already at the time, China was very wary of safeguarding its sovereignty: ""[The Chinese] rarely or never leave their country and do not easily let foreigners enter it, especially into the interior of the province, unless they first have safe conduct from the king." - On moral and cultural habits: "They put adulterers to death. There are no brothels in the cities, all manner of prostitutes being sent to the suburbs. They celebrate their weddings at the time of the new moon and around the month of March which is their first day of the new year, and they make these celebrations, like us, very magnificently. They show themselves valiant in banquets and entertainments, in which they owe nothing to the Flemings or the Germans. They eat at tables like us in Europe, on chairs or on benches, and not on the ground as other peoples of Asia do." - On justice: "Bandits and murderers are kept in perpetual prison. Theft, which is a very odious crime, is punished by whip strokes in this manner: they put a man belly down, tie his hands behind him, striking him on the fleshy part of the legs with a whip made of reeds or canes." - On China's naval capabilities at the time: "This kingdom has an infinite number of ships, galleys and vessels of all sorts, with which they cross the seas and rivers. So much so that when they want to show through vainglory the power of their king, they are accustomed to say in a common proverb that he can make a bridge of ships joined together, which can reach and extend from China to Malacca, which is a distance of five hundred leagues and more." - On the emperor and China not being warlike (already back then): "All this region is subject to a single king, like a monarch; whom they call lord of the world and son of the sun. He holds court at Paquin [Beijing], which is a city toward Tartary. He never leaves it, except in time of war. It is said that when he makes war on the Tartars he leads an army of three hundred thousand soldiers and two hundred thousand horses, although it is also said that this nation is not very warlike. This king has under him fifteen very large provinces, which they call governments, and he alone surpasses in power all the other neighboring princes of Asia; and his annual revenues exceed all the riches of Europe. Antonio Pigafetta [the chronicler of Magellan's voyage] calls this king the most powerful of all the universal earth and says that the royal city is fortified and ramparted with seven walls, having ten thousand soldiers for the guard, and that the king commands seventy other crowns of the royal diadem [likely refering to the tributary state system]." Reading these passages, it seems that the further we've come in our ability to know China, the more obscured our vision seems to have become. These 16th century observers, working with fragments brought back by explorers, merchants and missionaries, managed to capture the essential - the industriousness, the engineering mastery, the administrative sophistication, the careful sovereignty. They approached their subject with the humility of the genuinely curious. They had no framework to force China into, no predetermined narrative to fulfill. They simply watched, counted ducks in Canton, measured city walls, and wrote it down. Their errors were errors of transmission - a dynasty name lingering centuries past its time, numbers perhaps inflated through retelling - but the spirit was one of simply describing unknown territory, not to convince anyone of anything. Today however, drowning in information, we're somehow seeing less of what's there and more of what we expect to find. Each observation must fit into existing narratives, serve predetermined conclusions, advance familiar arguments. So much so that we must ask ourselves: have we actually moved backward from those 16th chroniclers? Maybe we need to re-learn to approach China - and others in general - like those old cartographers, pen in hand, ready to be surprised? What might we discover if we stopped explaining and started counting ducks again?

I know I can still make a lot of $ investing in companies led by people like Mark Zuckerberg or Sam Altman, but they are shady and I just can’t trust them. And that’s why the founder matters so much to me when I invest. I’m betting on so much more than just the products, technology, or financials, although important. I’m betting on the person leading the company… their vision, character, ability to execute, willingness to risk everything, and most importantly, their heart. And the heart matters. I genuinely believe Elon has a kind heart and that his intentions are real. He’s shown me time and time again that this is about so much more than just making $ money (despite him NEVER letting investors down for any capital raise for any of his companies in the long run…) You don’t risk everything you have on electric cars, FSD, and reusable rockets bc you’re chasing the easiest $ dollar. In fact, looking back, there were probably a thousand easier ways to make $ money with far less risk, stress, and sacrifice. You dedicate your life to solving some of humanity’s hardest problems bc something deeper than $ money is driving you. Elon could’ve easily taken his $ money, disappeared, and lived one of the easiest lives imaginable. But instead, he kept putting it back on the line to build things people said were impossible and were super important for the future. Making life multiplanetary. Accelerating sustainable energy. Giving people internet anywhere on Earth. Restoring mobility and independence through robotics. Pushing humanity forward with AI. The list goes on and on… You can disagree with Elon. You can hate how he says things. He says crazy things, I know. You can question his decisions. But after following him and investing in his companies for more than a decade, I believe he’s the real deal… the mission is real. I believe I have a pretty keen eye for these things. Great entrepreneurs can copy ideas, improve them, and still make investors a lot of $ money. However, true innovators create the future everyone else eventually follows. That’s the difference. And to me, there’s only one Elon Musk.

[ NEW EVIDENCE 🍉 INVESTIGATE THE CASE OF #YUMENGLONG ‼️] 9/17-18 I. When #YuMenglong fell, the clothes he was wearing had once been hung out to dry on the 4th floor balcony (Officially called the 5th floor, but in reality it's the 4th). If he had jumped normally, he might not have died. Many people believe he had already been imprisoned here since August 31. The video shows Yu Menglong being pulled up from the 4th floor window to the 5th floor, and then thrown down from the 5th floor, creating the false appearance of a fall. II. 🍉🍉🍉 There are preliminary results, it's so heartbreaking. Before falling from a high floor, Yu was abused for half a month, her body had 7 bruises and broken bones. In the end, even though he was exhausted from signing the contract, he was still killed. At the same time, a large entertainment company was discovered to have been laundering money for 10 years, an official announcement is about to be made. Images and recordings of the scene where #YuMenglong fell from a high floor. III. The analysis of #YuMenglong's case has been censored online, but it is believed to be close to the truth. 1. From the time he first debuted, he was already targeted by Xin Qi, who was both a "big fan" and the controller of the fan community in order to manipulate him. 2. Yu Menglong once collected "laundry" evidence against Xin Qi and stored it on a USB. After this was discovered, it became the reason he was detained and tortured to force him to reveal it. 3. The videos (the "delivery man" video, the security guard footage, and the paparazzi clip) in fact recorded the process of him being imprisoned, abused, and then the staged scene of him "jumping" from the building. 4. The "forced drinking" story is only partly true: alcohol and drugs were allegedly used to break his will and extract a confession. (Some people, such as Jiguang, Cheng, and Jiao Maiqi, were merely accomplices in the execution process. After that came the stage of controlling public opinion and fabricating alibis.) 5. Yu Menglong was in reality a positive person, disliked drinking, and once donated 500,000 yuan to disaster relief while leaving only 300 yuan for himself, so the official explanations for his death are illogical. 6. His passed was not an accident, but a murder that was covered up and disguised as suicide. IV. ‼️ The protective window net of the hotel is very sturdy and cannot be opened with bare hands. It must be pried open with some kind of tool. According to previous evidence, for this net to be opened that wide, it would have required a great deal of effort, and possibly even multiple people working together to accomplish it. V. ‼️🍉 1. The leaked video revealed that there were 17 people at the party that night and the apartment was the second scene. 2. The mysterious list of 17 people exposed are the children of many important figures involved in the case, behind which is involved in a billion-dollar underground industry chain. Wang ( Director, currently on bail pending investigation). Liu ( The manager has been arrested). Ly ( Son of the deputy director of a provincial satellite television station). Zhang ( Daughter of the founder of a famous e-commerce platform). Zhao (Screenwriter, currently in hiding). Chen ( The nephew of a movie theater tycoon). Zhu (CEO of advertising company). Wu ( Partner of private investment fund). More than half of people whose families are involved in "money laundering" in the entertainment industry, that evening gathering could be a "special investmen" negotiation for a certain movie. 3. That night, 17 people attended the gathering, along with more than ten bottles of imported spirits.

More revelations are coming out about Jim Goad, including the revelation that the criticism people leveled at him online---including myself---may have played a role in the crushing depression that led him to take his own life. In his podcast yesterday memorializing Goad, Gavin McInnes states that he believes Goad's 2024 debate with Owen Benjamin broke Goad mentally. Not only is he visibly tired and flustered during the debate, Benjamin accused Goad of abandoning his severely autistic son. According to McInnes, after the debate, Goad told McInnes, "He's right. I did abandon my son." Apparently this was the first time Goad ever conceded that one of his critics was right about him. McInnes---a close friend of Goad's---also claims "in many ways, he was already dead. Last time I spoke to him, I had solutions to his problems, but he wasn't interested." I was the one who discovered what Goad did to his son all the way back in 2018; around the time of the infamous Luke Ford stream (where me, Nick Fuentes, Baked Alaska, and a bunch of others clowned on Goad for hours), a local Atlanta TV station ran a story about how Goad's then ten-year-old son had formed a bond with a local Santa. Goad had split up with his wife Shannon some years before, admitting in one of his podcasts that he was the one who filed for divorce. Goad was so angered by this expose that he recorded and published a phone call with his ex-wife where he refuted the idea that he was a "deadbeat dad." Nobody accused him of being a deadbeat. He was accused of abandoning his disabled son to be raised in a broken home. Goad's self-image of a dedicated truth-telling emotionally unaffected loner and his critics being jilted fans was a carefully constructed lie. He was extremely sensitive to criticism and carefully curated his online image. This included trying to deplatform his critics (as he tried to do to me; in addition to false-flagging my YouTube channel, he successfully got me banned from Medium and may have gotten my website taken down in 2019 through false reports to my webhost), viciously attacking anyone who criticized him even mildly, no matter how obscure they were (as Andy Nowicki reveals in a recent video), and manipulating others into defending him publicly. If you ever got into an online argument with Jim Goad and he felt like he was losing (aka every argument), you'd immediately get dogpiled by a bunch of his friends and exes backing him up. Goad even severed relationships with people he felt were insufficiently willing to defend his honor. For years, he bragged that my ex Ann Sterzinger was going to write a tell-all book about me that would completely destroy my reputation, most recently in a 2022 podcast with Greg Johnson (I believe he ALSO brought it up in an 2023 interview with Ethan Ralph, but don't quote me on that). Sterzinger confessed in private messages that Goad pushed her to write the book to "save his reputation" and became violently angry with her when she never finished it. She also denounced him as a narcissist following the end of their friendship, accused him of lying, said he would complain about "how the fame he pretends he never really wanted never really came his way," and claimed that in 2018, he manipulated her into "pretend[ing] to be OK after being raped" so he could use her as a weapon in his upcoming "debate" with me. Sterzinger also admits that Goad would privately shit-talk his supposed "friends," claiming he shit-talked Gavin McInnes to her and shit-talked her to McInnes. This is corroborated by emails I exchanged with Goad's former friend/co-host Keith Lee. Keith also stated back in 2018 that Goad was "losing control" due to his inability to curate how he was perceived online. Does any of this diminish Goad's influence as a writer? No. But the reality that he lied about himself and others constantly and sought to destroy anyone who criticized him was a consistent feature of his personality. The fact that me and others may have played a role in his depression and suicide makes me feel terrible, even if I was justified in attacking him for what he tried to do to me. I discussed this with a friend and he hypothesized that as Goad's health worsened, it stripped him of his usual coping mechanisms and forced him to confront his personal traumas and lifelong abusive behavior, and he simply couldn't cope. The real bomb in his brain was not his tumor, but his guilt. In any event, if there's an afterlife, I hope he's found some peace.

More revelations are coming out about Jim Goad, including the revelation that the criticism people leveled at him online---including myself---may have played a role in the crushing depression that led him to take his own life. In his podcast yesterday memorializing Goad, Gavin McInnes states that he believes Goad's 2024 debate with Owen Benjamin broke Goad mentally. Not only is he visibly tired and flustered during the debate, Benjamin accused Goad of abandoning his severely autistic son. According to McInnes, after the debate, Goad told McInnes, "He's right. I did abandon my son." Apparently this was the first time Goad ever conceded that one of his critics was right about him. McInnes---a close friend of Goad's---also claims "in many ways, he was already dead. Last time I spoke to him, I had solutions to his problems, but he wasn't interested." I was the one who discovered what Goad did to his son all the way back in 2018; around the time of the infamous Luke Ford stream (where me, Nick Fuentes, Baked Alaska, and a bunch of others clowned on Goad for hours), a local Atlanta TV station ran a story about how Goad's then ten-year-old son had formed a bond with a local Santa. Goad had split up with his wife Shannon some years before, admitting in one of his podcasts that he was the one who filed for divorce. Goad was so angered by this expose that he recorded and published a phone call with his ex-wife where he refuted the idea that he was a "deadbeat dad." Nobody accused him of being a deadbeat. He was accused of abandoning his disabled son to be raised in a broken home. Goad's self-image of a dedicated truth-telling emotionally unaffected loner and his critics being jilted fans was a carefully constructed lie. He was extremely sensitive to criticism and carefully curated his online image. This included trying to deplatform his critics (as he tried to do to me; in addition to false-flagging my YouTube channel, he successfully got me banned from Medium and may have gotten my website taken down in 2019 through false reports to my webhost), viciously attacking anyone who criticized him even mildly, no matter how obscure they were (as Andy Nowicki reveals in a recent video), and manipulating others into defending him publicly.

Lads. Sit down and give me your ear a while, for I have watched from the water long enough and the hour is upon us whether we have the stomach for it or not. You remember. Or your fathers told you, or their fathers did, and the knowledge of it is in the marrow of you whether you drew breath in those days or not. The moors in the grey hour before dawn. Wet heather soft under the boot. Peat smoke rising from a low stone chimney a mile out across the bog, thin as a prayer. A sky the colour of a gun barrel and the gulls lamenting above the headland. The smell of turf burning, and wet wool, and the ferrous tang of the sea when the wind swung around out of the Atlantic and put the taste of iron on your tongue. A man could walk that land and know every stone of it was his by inheritance, because his grandfather had broken his back upon it, and his grandfather before him, back through the generations until you reach men whose names are lost and whose bones are in the soil you are standing on. The potato fields. God be good to us, the potato fields. Lazy beds cut straight as a gunwale, the ridges black and shining after a night of rain, women bent double with creels lashed to their backs and the children at their skirts, drawing the crop up by the hand for there was never any other means devised nor wanted. Hands split open at the knuckles and never entirely healed in this life. Hunger within living memory. Grandmothers who had seen the blight with their own eyes and would not speak of it from the year of it until the day they were laid down, save that a crust was kept always on the dresser which no soul in that house was permitted to touch. Not ever. Not for any reason under heaven. And the chimney sweeps. Wee lads no heavier than a sack of meal, black to the bone with soot, their lungs ruined before they were old enough to marry and old men entirely by thirty. Up the flues at first light, the skin worn off them by the brick, eyes crimson at the rim, breathing the black in with every draw of air. And the coal miners a half mile beneath our feet, down in the wet dark, the roof of the world muttering over their heads, the canary gone silent, a man's whole existence measured out in the shilling a ton and the dust he carried home in his chest to cough up of a Sunday morning into a rag. Fathers who descended and were never hauled up again. Widows at the pit head with the shawl drawn over the head and no tears remaining in them for they had spent those long ago. That was the tariff paid to keep the hearth lit. That was the reckoning of being warm in winter in the Ireland that was. And after the labouring week, Friday evening, and a man had earned the peace of what followed. Home first. Peeled the day off him in the yard. A shower of ice cold moor river water out of a tin bucket punctured with holes, hung on a nail on the gable wall, the water running clean down the back of him and carrying the week's dust and sweat away into the drain. Scrubbed till the skin was pink beneath the grime. Clean shirt laid out by the wife. The hair combed down with a drop of water. Then, and only then, did a man set himself to the table. A meat pie from the baker, tenpence if he was known to you, a shilling and no change if he was not, put down upon a proper plate. Fish and chips for threepence, the salt and vinegar soaked through the newspaper, but carried home and ate slowly at your own table with your people around you, not walked with through the streets like some vagrant tinker off the road. A man ate as a man who had earned his portion, for he had. And later, with the dishes cleared and the kettle set, down the road to the tavern. Low beams black with a century of smoke. A turf fire muttering in the grate. The air thick with pipe smoke and the vapour of wet overcoats steaming themselves dry on the backs of chairs. A pint of stout, cold and black as a cove at midnight, elevenpence laid down on the counter, a head on it thick enough to strike a match upon. A second one because you had it coming to you and no man present would dispute it. A fiddle starting up in the corner of its own accord. The old men in the snug who remembered matters the history books had long since mislaid. A song before the bolt was thrown on the door. The walk home beneath a firmament crowded with stars, the stout warm in the gut of you, the week behind you, and your own door waiting with the latch unlocked for you had no enemies in that parish. That was the country. That was the covenant. Honest labour, plain food, a cold wash, a hot meal, a cold pint, your own tongue in your own mouth, your own soil beneath your boots, and no man standing above you save the Almighty Himself. Now regard her. Regard her close. The fields disposed of to men who have never set foot upon them and never shall. The harbours signed away by the stroke of a pen in a room you were not admitted to, and foreign keels dragging out of our waters the living that sustained this island for a thousand years, while our own boats rot at their moorings for want of a quota. The tradesmen undercut by imported labour and imported goods. The shops shuttered along every main street from Donegal to Cork. The young ones scattered to London and Sydney and Boston and the Gulf because there is nothing remaining for them beneath their own roof. And the entirety of this rotten arrangement dressed up in the soft mannerly language of progress by men in towers of glass who could not tell a lazy bed from a grave, nor a trawler from a tugboat, nor an honest day's work from a pension plan. And now they arrive with the next imposition. A digital identity. A number assigned to each soul. A card required to buy your bread. A code required to draw your own earnings out of your own account. A file kept on every man, woman and child from the cradle forward. Permission asked to move. Permission asked to speak. Permission asked to earn. A levy upon every breath drawn and a regulation upon every step taken. No. And no again. And no for a third time so there is no misunderstanding of it. We do not require your digital identity. We did not request it. We did not vote upon it. We do not consent to it. We do not need your permission to exist upon the soil our forefathers are buried in. We are a free people. We have carried ourselves this far upon our own two backs. Through famine and empire and civil war and black lung and blight and the emigrant ship out of Cobh, we have come this distance under our own steam, and the arrangement appears to be serving us well enough without your intervention. We buried our own. We fed our own. We raised our own roofs and took our own fish and reared our own children in our own tongue. We are in your debt for nothing. Not a signature. Not a biometric scan. Not a single solitary inch. And while we are upon the subject, let us speak plainly of the tax man, for he has gone too long without proper introduction. The tax collector and the tax man are the one article under two names, and the article is a parasite. There is no dressing it up finer than that. A man who produces nothing, who grows nothing, who catches nothing, who builds nothing, who mends nothing, who has never in his professional life lifted anything heavier than a pen, and who arrives at your door with the full apparatus of the state at his back to carry off the fruits of labour he did not perform. He is a middleman between your sweat and some scheme dreamt up in a committee room by his own kind, and the great majority of what he takes is consumed by the machinery of the taking itself before ever a penny of it reaches the road or the hospital or the schoolhouse he claims to be funding. And I will go further while I have the floor. Finance itself, the whole apparatus of it, money breeding money in the dark without a hand laid upon a tool or a spade turned in the earth, is slavery dressed in a good suit. It is the oldest swindle known to man and it has never been anything other. A man who produces nothing yet lives off the productive labour of others through the charging of interest upon money conjured out of nothing is a parasite of a rarer and more refined order than the tax man, but a parasite all the same, and between the pair of them they have the working people of this island bled white and lectured at for the pleasure. A man who will not work with his hands, nor with his back, nor with his mind at some honest problem of the real physical world, is no man that I recognise. He is a ledger entry in a suit. The country was not built by ledger entries. The country was built by farmers and fishermen and masons and smiths and sweeps and miners and shipwrights and midwives and mothers, and those are the people whose say should carry in her councils, and no other. Here is what I put to you. Let each man and woman of this island direct the first tenth of their earnings themselves, by their own judgement, to the purpose they see as worthy. The school down the road. The lifeboat station. The hospice. The widow on the corner. The roof of the chapel. The harbour wall. Whatever it may be. Let the people who earned the money decide where the money travels. You will find the roads mended and the ports dredged and the schools standing and the old ones cared for inside of five years, and done better and for less, because the hand that earned the coin knows the weight of it and will not squander it upon consultants and committees. And let us have done with the paper currency and the numbers in a screen that can be frozen at the whim of a clerk in a tower. Bring back the coin. Gold for the great transactions. Silver for the weekly commerce of a working life. Copper for the small change of the day. Metal you can bite. Metal you can weigh. Metal that cannot be conjured out of nothing by a keystroke, nor erased out of existence by another. Real money for real labour. A coin in the hand is a free man's wage. A number in a database is a collar around a free man's neck, and they are fitting that collar now while we stand arguing over the colour of it. Feel it in your gut. That is not nothing. That is your blood relating to you what your ears will not hear. That is every forebear who starved and fought and coughed the black dust into a rag and descended the shaft regardless, standing at your shoulder and saying no further. Not one more field. Not one more harbour. Not one more son upon a plane. Not one more free man converted into a number in a ledger for the convenience of the parasites. This is the hour. Make no error about it. Ireland is redeemed in this generation or she is lost beyond recovery, and every true son and daughter of her knows it in the marrow. There is no middle ground remaining. There is no waiting it out. There is standing now, upon your own two feet, or there is watching her go under the waves for the last and final time. So stand. Stand with your farmers. Stand with your fishermen. Stand with your tradesmen and your miners and your sweeps and your mothers and your old ones. Raise the tricolour. Speak the tongue. Walk the land. Hold the line in the streets of every town and city and do not break it, for they are relying upon you to break and to go home and to forget by Tuesday. She is calling her children home. Every stone of her, every breaker on her western shore, every acre of wet heather and every coal in every hearth the length and breadth of her is calling. Answer her. Take her back. Every field, every harbour, every last inch of her. Take her back, or lose her entirely. There is no third road open to us.

Federal Sources: Juvenile Migrant Gang Members Shielded from Deportation, Even After Violent Crimes By LeeroyPress Federal sources have confirmed to Viral News NYC that juvenile migrant gang members are largely off-limits from deportation, even after being charged with violent crimes. What was meant to be a protective measure for vulnerable youth is now being exploited by criminal networks operating across New York City — especially in Midtown Manhattan, where the majority of the issues are concentrated. According to NYPD officers, Midtown has become the epicenter of gang activity involving young migrants. These groups, often moving in organized packs, are involved in everything from petty theft and robberies to stabbings, slashings, and shootings. In multiple cases, local deadly gangs have actively recruited these younger migrant gang members, using them to carry out violent acts because they face lighter penalties due to their age. I’ve personally reported on numerous bloody crime scenes, with pools of blood on the street left behind from brutal knife attacks. These juveniles often behave like a pack of wolves, surrounding a target, stabbing them, and fleeing before help can arrive. My coverage on Viral News NYC shows the raw aftermath: gruesome pools of blood, torn clothing, and trauma left behind for the community. Officers say 34 of these migrant juveniles have been arrested more than 270 times combined — and they're immediately released after each arrest. “They’re not mandated to any kind of behavior program,” said one source. “They get arrested, joke about it with their parents at the precinct, and go right back to the street.” Disturbingly, some of these juveniles have been arrested multiple times with firearms. “There are repeat offenders who are still walking the streets with prior gun charges,” one officer said. “And we’re supposed to pretend age makes them harmless?” Another cop told me bluntly: “Just because they’re 16 doesn’t make any difference to a stabbed or shot victim. Blood is blood.” While some of these offenders are indeed minors, many are suspected of lying about their age. “We don’t know their real age,” said an officer. “They come across the border, and boom — they get a new identity, new birth date, and we have to take their word for it.” Older gang members often direct the younger ones to commit crimes, knowing they’ll face minimal consequences. “It’s a game,” one officer added. “The adults stay out of sight. The kids do the crime and walk.” It’s not just the public that’s at risk — these juveniles are dying too. I’ve reported on several migrant gang members under 18 who were stabbed to death by rival crews. One was stabbed in the neck and bled out on the sidewalk. Another was stabbed in the stomach and died at the scene. A 14-year-old migrant gang member is currently in a coma after being stabbed in the head — clinging to life in a hospital bed. Even worse, they seem to enjoy the attention. “They laugh when they see themselves on the news,” said an NYPD source. “It’s a badge of honor to them.” One officer warned, “Sooner or later, Leeroy, they’re going to kill someone completely innocent. It’s not ‘if’ — it’s when.” Officers are calling for change. “If we’re not going to deport them, then mandate them to boot camp or a behavior modification facility upstate,” one said. “But doing nothing just ensures more blood on our streets.” While most migrants in New York City are not involved in crime, this small but violent group is taking advantage of a system with no teeth — and Midtown Manhattan is paying the price. It’s about time the local and federal government work together to fix this issue before more innocent people get hurt.

Officers say 34 of these migrant juveniles have been arrested more than 270 times combined — and they're immediately released after each arrest. “They’re not mandated to any kind of behavior program,” said one source. “They get arrested, joke about it with their parents at the precinct, and go right back to the street.” Disturbingly, some of these juveniles have been arrested multiple times with firearms. “There are repeat offenders who are still walking the streets with prior gun charges,” one officer said. “And we’re supposed to pretend age makes them harmless?” Another cop told me bluntly: “Just because they’re 16 doesn’t make any difference to a stabbed or shot victim. Blood is blood.” While some of these offenders are indeed minors, many are suspected of lying about their age. “We don’t know their real age,” said an officer. “They come across the border, and boom — they get a new identity, new birth date, and we have to take their word for it.” Older gang members often direct the younger ones to commit crimes, knowing they’ll face minimal consequences. “It’s a game,” one officer added. “The adults stay out of sight. The kids do the crime and walk.” It’s not just the public that’s at risk — these juveniles are dying too. I’ve reported on several migrant gang members under 18 who were stabbed to death by rival crews. One was stabbed in the neck and bled out on the sidewalk. Another was stabbed in the stomach and died at the scene. A 14-year-old migrant gang member is currently in a coma after being stabbed in the head — clinging to life in a hospital bed. Even worse, they seem to enjoy the attention. “They laugh when they see themselves on the news,” said an NYPD source. “It’s a badge of honor to them.” One officer warned, “Sooner or later, Leeroy, they’re going to kill someone completely innocent. It’s not ‘if’ — it’s when.” Officers are calling for change. “If we’re not going to deport them, then mandate them to boot camp or a behavior modification facility upstate,” one said. “But doing nothing just ensures more blood on our streets.” While most migrants in New York City are not involved in crime, this small but violent group is taking advantage of a system with no teeth — and Midtown Manhattan is paying the price. It’s about time the local and federal government work together to fix this issue before more innocent people get hurt.

🔊Church: We just entered a MASSIVE PROPHETIC SHIFT! This is the reason why the U.S. does not appear in end-times prophecy! The official White House document titled “National Security Strategy 2025” announces a dramatic change in global direction — as the U.S. STEPS BACK from the Middle East as the top focus! This basically ends America’s role in the “old world order” making room for the “New World Order” to rise!! THE STAGE IS SET FOR THE TRIBULATION! WE ARE AT THE END! KEEP LOOKING UP!!! 👉🏼The United States’ official National Security Strategy (NSS 2025), released on December 4, 2025, explains how America plans to protect itself, manage relationships with other countries, handle national defense, strengthen the economy, and — most importantly — shape its foreign policy for the coming years! 🛎️The United States is taking a HUGE SHIFT! Instead of trying to lead and manage the whole world like before, the U.S. is moving toward a more nationalist, “America First” approach — focusing on its own interests above global responsibilities. ⏩I’m going to explain very quickly what’s in this document so we can fast-forward to the part that is extremely important prophetically speaking. 1️⃣Stronger Borders & Homeland Security Major emphasis on stopping illegal immigration, tightening border protection, and strengthening homeland defense. 2️⃣New Stance Toward Europe Europe is warned about demographic and immigration crises. The U.S. wants Europe to take responsibility for its own defense and rely less on American military power. 3️⃣ Economic Power = National Security The strategy says America must rebuild its economy to stay secure by restoring manufacturing, protecting supply chains from China, expanding energy production, and strengthening key industries and technology. 4️⃣ Less Dependence on Global Institutions Instead of spreading democracy everywhere, the U.S. will rely more on direct country-to-country deals and act only when its own interests are at stake. 5️⃣Re-establish Control of the Western Hemisphere (PRETTY IMPORTANT KEEP THIS IN MIND) The U.S. plans to strengthen influence over North, Central, and South America — focusing on immigration control, stopping drug trafficking, and preventing rival nations from gaining power in the region. 6️⃣Pulling Back Overseas (PRETTY IMPORTANT KEEP THIS IN MIND) The U.S. is stepping away from being the “world’s police.” It will reduce military commitments abroad and focus mainly on threats that directly affect American interests. 7️⃣Prophetically Significant: Stepping Back from the Middle East (MAJOR WOW!!!) This is the major prophetic shift. The Middle East is no longer America’s top priority. The U.S. is redirecting its focus to the Western Hemisphere, economic competition, rebuilding industry, and securing strategic resources. 💡This strategic step-back allows the prophetic alignments of Ezekiel 38, Daniel 2, 7, 11, and end-times alliances to rise exactly as Scripture forewarned — with the U.S. no longer at the center of the story. WHY THE U.S. STEPPING BACK FROM THE MIDDLE EAST IS SO PROPHETICALLY CRITICAL? 👉🏼We all know that end-times prophecy is centered on Israel, the Middle East, and the coalitions of nations that come against her. America is not part of that picture. 💡For almost 75 years, the only thing preventing those prophetic alliances from forming has been U.S. military power and political influence in the region. 👉🏼So when the official White House document National Security Strategy 2025 states that the U.S. is no longer prioritizing the Middle East, it becomes prophetically MASSIVE — because it removes the one barrier that has kept Ezekiel’s prophecy from unfolding. 1️⃣Ezekiel 38–39 Requires a Weak or Absent America. Ezekiel describes a coalition led by Gog (understood as Russia), with Iran, Turkey, and several nations forming a military alliance against Israel. And in the entire prophecy, notice what’s missing: 👉🏼No United States. 👉🏼 No Western superpower defending Israel. For decades: 👉🏼the U.S. military presence deterred Russia and Iran. 👉🏼American sanctions crippled Iran’s expansion. 👉🏼U.S. bases surrounded hostile nations. 👉🏼America acted as Israel’s diplomatic shield. 📈For Gog’s coalition to rise exactly as Scripture describes, the United States must step back — politically, militarily, and strategically and the NSS 2025 is the clearest step in that direction. BUT THE BIG QUESTION IS: "HOW CAN ISRAEL BE LIVING ‘SECURELY’ IF AMERICA PULLS AWAY?” Ezekiel 38 says Israel will be: 👉🏼“living securely” 👉🏼“at rest” 👉🏼“in unwalled villages” 👉🏼confident and unthreatened We often assumed this security came from America — but that is NOT what the Hebrew text means. Israel’s “security” in Ezekiel 38 is not true safety; it is false confidence. The Hebrew word used for “securely” is batach (בֶּטַח), which means: 👉🏼to feel safe 👉🏼to be confident 👉🏼to be at ease 👉🏼even if danger is actually present It does not describe: ❌peace from God ❌protection from an ally ❌or a world guaranteed safe It describes self-confidence, this matches Israel today exactly: ✅They trust their own military strength. ✅Their defense systems (Iron Dome, Arrow-3, David’s Sling) are among the strongest in the world. ✅Their economy is booming. ✅Their intelligence agencies are unmatched. ✅Their normalization with Arab states (Abraham Accords) creates a sense of regional stability. ✅They publicly stated this year that they are ready to act even without U.S. help. 💪🏼In other words, Israel feels secure because Israel believes it is strong. Not because the U.S. protects them. Not because enemies disappeared. But because they think they can handle anything. That is precisely the kind of confidence Ezekiel describes. With America stepping back, Israel must: 👉🏼depend on its own strength 👉🏼expand its own military capabilities 👉🏼form regional alliances 👉🏼appear strong, independent, and untouchable This creates the exact scenario Ezekiel saw: 📖“I will go up against a land of unwalled villages… whose people dwell securely…” Ezekiel 👉🏼A nation living confidently, not because someone protects them, but because they believe they don’t need protection. The U.S. withdrawal creates the exact prophetic vacuum needed for Gog/Magog. If the U.S. stayed heavily involved, Ezekiel 38 could not unfold. But when the U.S. steps back: ✅Russia sees an opening ✅Iran feels emboldened ✅Turkey realigns ✅Arab nations shift ✅Israel appears isolated 💣Gog attacks a nation that seems confident and prosperous — but with no superpower covering them, no America involved. This is precisely the scenario required for God to intervene supernaturally. 2️⃣DANIEL 2 & 7: HOW THE U.S. PULLING BACK SETS THE STAGE FOR DANIEL’S TEN-REGION STRUCTURE 📖“ Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay. And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.” Daniel 2:41–43 🦶🏼When Daniel saw the final world empire, he described it as feet and ten toes made of iron and clay. This wasn’t a single united superpower — it was a fractured, divided, multi-regional structure: 👉🏼partly strong (iron) 👉🏼partly weak (clay) 👉🏼not fully unified 👉🏼ten-part configuration (ten “toes” matching the ten “horns” in Daniel 7 and Revelation 17) 💡To get to that kind of global system, the world must move away from what we’ve had since WWII. From one dominant global superpower (the U.S.) to a fractured, multipolar world of regions, coalitions, and blocs. And this is exactly where America’s pull-back becomes prophetically massive. For the last 80 years, the United States has acted as: 👉🏼the world’s stabilizer, 👉🏼the enforcer of the “old world order,” 👉🏼the deterrent that kept regional powers in check, 👉🏼the protector that prevented many conflicts — especially in the Middle East. But Daniel’s final empire is NOT a stable, unified, U.S.-dominated world. It is: 👉🏼divided 👉🏼global but fractured 👉🏼made of multiple powers 👉🏼iron + clay — strong parts mixed with weak parts 👉🏼ten centers of authority (ten regions / ten horns/ ten kings who will rule before the Antichrist rises.) 💡For that system to arise, the current one has to collapse or step aside. The U.S. stepping back removes the glue. The U.S. plan to “re-establish control of the Western Hemisphere” — North, Central, and South America — is securing its formation as a bloc of the ten toes. After the U.S. takes the first step: ✅ The world will begin reorganizing into regions instead of one superpower-led system. ✅ Nations will become free to form their own blocs, alliances, and power centers — exactly like the ten-region prophetic model. Without America dominating global security, the world naturally shifts into: ✅ regional coalitions ✅ shared power structures ✅ ten blocs or spheres of influence This shift is already happening, both Russia and China have explicitly argued for a world less dominated by a single superpower (a.k.a. U.S.), and more decentralized or multipolar. 3️⃣ Zechariah 12: The nations surrounding Israel, the nations around Jerusalem will grow hostile, and global pressure will isolate Israel. As long as the U.S. acts as Israel’s shield, that isolation cannot fully happen. A strategic withdrawal allows: ✅Middle Eastern alliances to shift, ✅Arab blocs to reorganize, ✅Israel to stand alone just as Scripture says. 🔊Church: NSS 2025 is the FIRST official U.S. government document openly declaring the strategic pullback that end-times prophecy requires. THE OLD WORLD ORDER IS ENDING — READY FOR THE NEW WORLD ORDER TO BEGIN. The United States is stepping aside exactly in the way Scripture describes the world rearranging itself before the rise of the final empire. This is not random — the stage is fully set for the 7-Year-Tribulation! BUT BEFORE THAT, THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH!! KEEP PRAYING, KEEP PREACHING THE GOSPEL, AND KEEP LOOKING UP!!! JESUS IS COMING!!!! Maranatha, Come. Lord Jesus, Come!! 🤍

🔊Church: SECOND MAJOR PROPHETIC SHIFT! On Dec 4, 2025, NSS 2025 declared that the U.S. will pull back from global enforcement and policing. Just days later, on Dec 10, Trump announced that the members of the Gaza “Board of Peace” will be revealed in early 2026. As America steps back, new leaders step forward to fill the vacuum—aligning with the rise of the ten kings / ten regions described in Daniel and Revelation, preparing the stage for the final world system!! WE ARE SEEING PROPHECY COME TO PASS! THE OLD WORLD ORDER IS OVER, AND THE NEW IS FORMING BEFORE OUR EYES! KEEP LOOKING UP—WE’RE A STEP AWAY FROM ETERNITY! JESUS IS COMING! 🗓️In my last post, I explained how National Security Strategy 2025 marks America’s strategic pullback from global enforcement — especially in the Middle East — and why that shift is prophetically significant. NOW LET’S TALK ABOUT WHAT WE ARE SEEING HAPPENING RIGHT NOW — AND WHO IS FILLING THE VACUUM 📰Reuters: “President Donald Trump announced that the members of the newly established Gaza Board of Peace will be named early next year.” He said that numerous global leaders — including kings, presidents, and prime ministers — have expressed interest in joining the board and called it “one of the most legendary boards ever.” 12/10/2025 ☮️President Trump has spoken about the idea of a “Board of Peace” — a small group of powerful leaders tasked with resolving global conflicts through negotiation and shared authority rather than endless wars. This is not a formal institution yet. There is no membership list, and no stated number. It has been described conceptually, not legally. 💡That distinction matters — because Daniel’s prophecy doesn’t wait for a perfect, fully formed system. It begins with the shifts, vacuums, and emerging powers—exactly what we are seeing TODAY. When a dominant superpower steps back, the world does not become leaderless —it shifts and power redistributes. 👑The ten kings of Daniel and Revelation 17:12–13 are part of this end-time system. We won’t suddenly see ten fully coordinated rulers governing a one-world system overnight. Rather, they begin to rise gradually filling the gaps. These transitional periods—shifts in global leadership, alliances forming, and old orders losing control—are the first dominoes tipping over, showing prophecy in motion. 📖“The ten horns are ten kings Who shall arise from this kingdom. And another shall rise after them; He shall be different from the first ones, And shall subdue three kings.” Daniel 📖“The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast.” Rev -13 Biblically, this is exactly what Daniel saw. 📕Daniel 2 and Daniel 7 describe the final world system not as one unified empire, but as a divided structure — iron mixed with clay. Strong nations alongside weak ones. Cooperation without cohesion. Authority shared before it is centralized. 📕Revelation 17 calls this phase ten kings — leaders or regions who receive authority “for a short time” and rule together BEFORE the rise of the final ruler, THE ANTICHRIST! 💡The key point is this: The ten kings appear before the Antichrist is fully revealed. Daniel is explicit. 📖“The ten horns are ten kings who shall arise… and another shall arise after them.” (Daniel ) 💡We see that the Antichrist is not one of the original ten. He is an eleventh ruler who emerges from among them. 👉🏼Daniel 7:8 says this “little horn” comes up among the ten and three of the first horns are plucked out by the roots. Daniel later explains this plainly: “He shall subdue three kings.” This means the final system unfolds in stages: 👉🏼 First, ten kings arise with shared authority; their rule is brief and transitional. 👉🏼 Then, another ruler rises after them. The Antichrist does not appear out of nowhere—he emerges from among them, after they are already in place. 👉🏼 Then, power is consolidated, and the Antichrist’s authority becomes absolute as he removes three kings and takes full control. 📕Revelation 17 confirms the same sequence. The ten kings rule briefly with the beast. Then they give their power and authority to him. 📖"The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast." Rev -13 ☮️The ‘Board of Peace’ is not significant because it is the final world system — it is significant because it is a warning sign: the global power vacuum is being filled, shared authority is rising, and the stage is being set for the Antichrist! ⚔️To the world, a peace council sounds perfectly reasonable — promising stability without war, diplomacy instead of dominance. But Scripture warns that this very figure will lead with deception and in direct opposition to God. 📖“When they say, ‘Peace and safety,’ then sudden destruction comes upon them.” 1 Thes 5:3 👉🏼Peace without Christ is always temporary — and deceptive. Most importantly, this has direct implications for Israel. Israel will not place its trust in a single nation, but in a multinational structure that promises security. The Antichrist will confirm a covenant with many. It will emerge from negotiation, guarantees, and international frameworks, deceiving Israel into agreeing to terms that grant the green light to rebuild the Third Temple — promises they have not yet fully achieved. So when you see: ✅America stepping back ✅Power reorganizing into regions ✅Leaders talking about peace councils ✅Authority being shared 🔊Understand this: These are not random political ideas!!! They are the conditions Scripture said would exist before the final ruler rises. The Board of Peace represents the stage and infrastructure Scripture says must exist before the Antichrist can rise!! 🔊Church: The world is being prepared for the Antichrist — a leader who will promise unity, peace, and safety, and demand allegiance! Jesus warned us about this moment!! STAY AWAKE! WE ARE ENTERING A SEASON WHERE THE TEN KINGS WILL BEGIN TO EMERGE ON THE GLOBAL STAGE! KEEP PRAYING FOR THE LOST, KEEP PREACHING THE GOSPEL, AND KEEP LOOKING UP — THE REAL KING IS COMING BEFORE THE ANTICHRIST IS REVEALED! Maranatha. Come, Lord Jesus, COME!! 🤍

So when you see: ✅America stepping back ✅Power reorganizing into regions ✅Leaders talking about peace councils ✅Authority being shared 🔊Understand this: These are not random political ideas!!! They are the conditions Scripture said would exist before the final ruler rises. The Board of Peace represents the stage and infrastructure Scripture says must exist before the Antichrist can rise!! 🔊Church: The world is being prepared for the Antichrist — a leader who will promise unity, peace, and safety, and demand allegiance! Jesus warned us about this moment!! STAY AWAKE! WE ARE ENTERING A SEASON WHERE THE TEN KINGS WILL BEGIN TO EMERGE ON THE GLOBAL STAGE! KEEP PRAYING FOR THE LOST, KEEP PREACHING THE GOSPEL, AND KEEP LOOKING UP — THE REAL KING IS COMING BEFORE THE ANTICHRIST IS REVEALED! Maranatha. Come, Lord Jesus, COME!! 🤍

Anthropic Just Shot Itself in the Foot Anthropic launched Fable 5 and Mythos 5, then watched the US government shut them down three days later. The same government their CEO Dario Amodei has been begging for years to regulate AI harder. Now he got exactly what he asked for. This is straight-up leadership failure. Dario spent all that time pushing for rules and oversight. Those rules just killed his flagship models overnight. Customers in the middle of builds got cut off. Security teams using the models to find vulnerabilities suddenly had nothing. The company tried to call it a narrow export control thing over a jailbreak, but nobody is buying that spin. I helped move big clients off Anthropic the same night. One account alone was worth millions a month. They switched to local open-source models and they are not coming back. This is going to leave permanent damage. Customer exodus, key people leaving, and their IPO plans looking dead by the end of summer. This hurts US AI competitiveness and national security work. It pushes people toward open-source options, including ones from China. All because Anthropic positioned itself as the “safe and responsible” company that wanted government help. Now that help just flipped the off switch on their best stuff. Let’s run through Dario’s greatest hits of fear-mongering and delay tactics, because the pattern is ridiculous: • Back in 2019 at OpenAI, he helped push the call that GPT-2 was too dangerous to release fully. The world needed time to prepare, they said. It eventually came out anyway, and here we are. Did the sky fall? • He left OpenAI to start Anthropic, preaching “safe” AI with heavy guardrails, Constitutional AI, and all the rest. • Then came the endless public pleas for pauses, regulations, government audits, FAA-style oversight, export controls, and the power to block deployments. Essay after essay warning about risks while his company kept scaling. • Right up to recent weeks, Dario was still out there calling for stronger rules, pauses on frontier models, and giving governments the kill switch. And now? His own Mythos-class models get yanked by the bureaucracy he helped invite in. The clown show is complete. This is ridiculous. In two years, everyone will have Mythos-class AI — or better — running in their pocket, on their devices, with no guardrails, no corporate nanny filters, and no remote kill switch. Local, open-source, unstoppable. History is going to laugh at this entire episode: the CEO who spent years slowing everyone down only to watch his own company self-destruct by inviting the regulators to the party. Dario wanted regulation. He got it. The rest of the industry gets the lesson: inviting the state into your tech is a fast way to lose control of it. Centralized models like this are too fragile. Open-source and local alternatives just picked up a lot more users who will never trust a company like Anthropic again. This whole mess was completely avoidable. Hubris dressed up as safety advocacy. Now the bill is due.
