🔥BOOM... Jack Posobiec tells us essentially THE HANDMAID'S TALE WAS BASED ON AFGHANISTAN AND HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH TRUMP ORIGINALLY..TELL YOUR LIBERAL FRIENDS. " WE HAVE THE CONSTITUTION BUT WE DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO IMPLEMENT SHARIA LAW" - Nick Sortor OF COURSE IT WAS WHITE LIBERAL WOMEN AT THE COUNCIL MEETINGS according to Nick Sortor. Nick makes a great point that they perceive Republicans as their enemies meanwhile supporting islamacists those who ACTUALLY wanna take their rights. Jack Posobiec has Nick Sortor join him to discuss his on the ground reporting from DEARBORN, MICHIGAN regarding MASS IMMIGRATION & the fact that they have mostly zero desire to assimilate and the broader impact on elections in the future. Nick says we have been hearing whispers of an ISLAMIC TAKEOVER and he states "IT APPEARS IT IS MORE THAN JUST RUMORS..65% ARE MUSLIM."He discusses the protests becoming heated and how Cam Higby was pepper sprayed WHO WAS NOT ARRESTED. Jack Posobiec asks him if we was surprised by the sheer numbers & also notes that when they arrive here "THEY REFER TO THEIR NATION OF BIRTH AS THEIR HOME COUNTRY AND NOT AMERICA." Jack makes a great point about how the advance of technology makes that easier not to have to assimilate since they can call back home with ease.

Ok, serious hat on. ZOG is dredging up a years old attempt of Milo Yiannopoulos to smear Nick Fuentes and the groypers. I did an 11 hour stream and interviewed the only person who ever leveled claims against Ali Alexander, where we discussed how Milo had arranged this entire narrative for the sole purpose of smearing Nick and Ali, who he had beef with. Because of this, I feel like I should address it again even though this is transparently another bad faith attack leveraging an actual abuse that has literally nothing to do with Nick in a clumsy attack against Nick. This Ali thing is repeated a lot by insane retards like Jaden who has been doing a hate show stalking Nick every day to 50 people since they stopped being friends 4 years ago. So it's something most groypers just ignore because it is known from the streams I and others did at the time to just be bullshit. It's an intricate drama, so I'll keep it concise. 1: Smiley chats with Ali in 2017 at age 15, trying to get a job for Milo/meet Milo. He sends him nudes at request to make this happen. He attempts to goad Smiley into meeting up with him at Milo's events, but smiley refuses, eventually ending the "relationship." This is before he is a groyper or groypers are even a thing. 2. Ali Alexander organized the 2021 stop the steal campaign and allowed Nick at his events, which at the time was extremely rare and useful to the groypers, leading to a working relationship, this relationship is massively overstated and Ali really was still very much an outsider who worked with AF, as he had his own organization and network. 3. 5 years after the fact, in 2022, Smiley for the first time tells Milo, his childhood idol, about what happened as Milo had a falling out with Ali Alexander and had made an open call for anyone with dirt. By this point, Smiley was a groyper, and Milo also had a working relationship with AF as he was close to politicians. Smiley has never claimed any further contact with Ali and was around 20 years old by this point. 4. Milo sits on this information and refuses to release it. After 6 months, he instead sends Nick vague texts saying Ali is "bad news" and hysterically requesting Nick cut all contact with Ali and disavow him. Nick requests evidence, and Milo refuses. 5. Nick and Milo have a falling out in 2023 following Nick's discovery that Milo was apparently still living with his gay black ex-husband and believing the rebirth as a straight Christian was just a desperate attempt for relevancy. 6. Immediately after this falling out, Milo responds after a year of nothing and collects a statement from Smiley about Ali Alexander. He then publishes it as well as the private intimate photos Smiley had sent Milo as evidence of the abuse all without Smiley's consent or knowledge. Milo uses this as a direct attack against Nick. 7. Nick is blindsided by this and immediately reaches out to Smiley and gets the story from him directly. After hearing it from Smiley, Nick disavows Ali's actions publicly on his show and cuts contact with him. And begins attempting to fight against the smear campaign brought forward by bad faith actors. 8. Milo launches "The Ali Files," claiming to have dozens more abuse victims of Ali, that there is an ongoing investigation he is organizing with the police and FBI. He uses it to continually attack Nick and tie him to this scandal. As of now, I am unaware of any arrests that have been made, any further victims to come forward, or any more actual verified information. There has been really nothing other than attacks on Nick since 2023. Now, I did an 11 hour stream examining the evidence, I invited on Smiley to tell his story, and I took heat at the time from groypers for being so fair and taking it seriously without being bias. Because it is serious. Smiley has never blamed Nick. The only people blaming Nick already want him dead and are hoping to trick you too. Please listen to the following recording of that interview from 2023:

🤦‍♂️ Justice Minister’s car-crash interview with Nick Ferrari exposes the emptiness of Labour’s “smash the gangs” slogan Labour love a good slogan. “Smash the gangs” sounds tough. But when Nick Ferrari actually asked for the numbers, Justice Minister Jake had nothing. Nick went straight in on small boat crossings: how many smuggling gangs have been dismantled, and how many arrests have been made? Jake started talking about “smashing the gangs”. Nick immediately cut in: “How many gangs have you smashed?” Jake panicked and deflected: “Well… We’ve stopped tens of thousands of attempted crossings…” Nick: “But how many gangs have you smashed?” Jake, already stuttering: “Arrests of members of these gangs have gone up?” Nick: “Well how many have been arrested then, Minister? Let’s do that.” Jake could barely get the words out at this point: “Well Nick, let’s… let’s deal with the end result of the problem.” Nick, clearly frustrated: “Minister, you just said you are smashing the gangs. How many people have been arrested?” Jake tried another deflection: “Nick, there’s been a number of arrests, but the proof is in the pudding.” Nick wasn’t having it: “What’s the number? 10? 20? 1,000?” Jake, visibly flustered: “I don’t have that number for you, but I have another number…” Nick cuts him off again: “Well you’re not smashing the gangs at all! They’re still trading!” Jake tries switching to safer ground: “This July is the lowest number of boat crossings for six years. We’ve seen around a 40% reduction compared to last year.” Nick’s gives him a reality check: “Over 2,000 people have arrived since Mr Burnham moved into Number 10!” Jake: “We’ve got a lot more to do but we are heading in the right direction.” Nick drops another reality check: “170 people nearly burnt to death on the Channel! How’s that headline in the right direction?” Jake: “Because fewer people are attempting to cross.” Nick: “But we don’t know how many traffickers have been arrested?” Jake: “I don’t have that figure for you.” Nick: “Why not? You’re the one who said you’re smashing the gangs, not me!” 😬 Painful to listen to. Fair play to Nick Ferrari for sticking with it and exposing just how empty the slogan really is when it’s put to the test.

🤦‍♂️ Justice Minister’s car-crash interview with Nick Ferrari exposes the emptiness of Labour’s “smash the gangs” slogan Labour love a good slogan. “Smash the gangs” sounds tough. But when Nick Ferrari actually asked for the numbers, Justice Minister Jake had nothing. Nick went straight in on small boat crossings: how many smuggling gangs have been dismantled, and how many arrests have been made? Jake started talking about “smashing the gangs”. Nick immediately cut in: “How many gangs have you smashed?” Jake panicked and deflected: “Well… We’ve stopped tens of thousands of attempted crossings…” Nick: “But how many gangs have you smashed?” Jake, already stuttering: “Arrests of members of these gangs have gone up?” Nick: “Well how many have been arrested then, Minister? Let’s do that.” Jake could barely get the words out at this point: “Well Nick, let’s… let’s deal with the end result of the problem.” Nick, clearly frustrated: “Minister, you just said you are smashing the gangs. How many people have been arrested?” Jake tried another deflection: “Nick, there’s been a number of arrests, but the proof is in the pudding.” Nick wasn’t having it: “What’s the number? 10? 20? 1,000?” Jake, visibly flustered: “I don’t have that number for you, but I have another number…” Nick cuts him off again: “Well you’re not smashing the gangs at all!

Nick Wright says sports debates ‘suck’ right now after the negative comments on Bam scoring 83: “This guy scored 83 points and the immediate conversation was ‘was that actually good or not?’ THE GUY SCORED 83 F*CKING POINTS! The first topic was ‘should he have tried? Should Bam have subbed himself out at 80 and said a prayer for Kobe as he walked off.’ WHAT ARE WE DOING? If someone wants to say ‘I was more impressed by Kobe 81 than Bam’s 83’, totally legitimate opinion. But that wasn’t the conversation I saw. The takes were ‘actually this is not good. He shouldn’t have tried to do it’ SHUT UP” (Via What’s Wright? with Nick Wright)

What is 1inch Protocol famous for? - Deepest liquidity in DeFi? - DEX aggregation? - Features like 1inch Fusion? - Bringing traditional finance to Web3? Or maybe for its aggressive Unicorn? We love Unicorns — they're adorable, especially with Unicorn Power! A brand is more than just a good product; it's a vision that unites people and brings a community together. 1inch connects over 250 DEXes, allowing almost any token swap at the best available rates. You can also get involved with DeFi by joining the 1inchDAO and there's nothing to keep you from using Unicorn Power!🦄✨ Let’s talk a bit about Governance in the 1inch DAO. First, the 1inch DAO is still evolving. Essential steps like establishing a Constitution and clear rules are underway. However, it's already operational: 1inch tokens and the DAO launched, and Phase 3 of full decentralization began in early 2023. Now is a great time to join and be part of the 1inch Network! By owning and staking $1inch tokens, you gain Unicorn Power, allowing you to participate in governance, vote on proposals, and earn rewards. The longer you stake (up to 2 years), the more Unicorn Power you accumulate. You can also delegate your voting power to recognized delegates, approved by Snapshot voting and listed on the forum. Delegating can be beneficial as it allows experienced delegates to make informed decisions on your behalf, ensuring that your voting power is effectively utilized even if you are not able to participate actively. 1inch DAO's delegation program is open to anyone. Apply as a delegate by filling out a form on the forum with your contributions, goals, and action plan. It can even be a paid position if you maintain at least 10,000 voting power. Then, proceed through the proposal process. The proposal process typically involves: - Forum post - Gathering comments - Temperature check through a poll on the forum - If all is good, implementing the proposal on Snapshot and voting. While most proposals succeed on Snapshot.eth due to temperature checks on the forum, unexpected events can occur. For example, a proposal to reduce 1inch Governance Quorum from 12M to 7M Unicorn Power on Snapshot: The community didn’t agree on that this time, as such a significant change required deeper analysis. This shows that governance is effective! Right now, 1inch DAO has a Security grant proposal. If you have voting power, don't forget to vote! Get curious and download our app at to vote smoothly on your mobile. P.S. We're excited that a physical card for digital assets is coming soon. The 1inchWallet with this beautiful card is a great addition to your crypto style, Goverlanders! We'd love your likes, retweets, and follows! Don’t be shy to share your vibes ✨ #1inchwallet #DeFi #UnicornPower #DAO #Governance #DEX #CryptoGovernance #Goverland #Goverlander

‼️EXPOSED: Nick Shirley Caught LYING About Being In New York On The DAY Charlie Was Assassinated — Which BLOWS UP Andrew Kolvet's Alibi 😱 Nick Shirley was not in New York City on September 10th. He was in Utah. A video he posted from the Orem train station that same day captures the ticket agent announcing the location over the PA system in the background, placing him near the scene of the assassination. The next day, September 11th, he filmed himself at Salt Lake City International Airport. The scenery outside the window matches exact public photos of that airport terminal. Both clips destroy his repeated claim that he had already returned to New York and that the segment he did with Andrew Kolvet on The Charlie Kirk Show that morning was live. If Nick was still in Utah on both the 10th and the 11th, the interview could not have been live. That removes the only real-time alibi Andrew Kolvet has offered for his movements that day. It also raises more questions about Nick’s own story. He claimed Charlie texted him the night of the 9th inviting him onto the show on Thursday the 11th, and that he had originally planned to livestream the UVU event in person before last-minute obligations forced him to New York. Charlie himself was scheduled to appear at Charis Bible College in Colorado on the 11th. So why would Charlie be trying to get Nick to come on his show and do an interview with him on a day Charlie himself had a prior obligation? The partial text screenshot Nick released leaves out the full conversation. Also in the September 10th train station video, Nick was already pushing the fedslop narrative that radical left and Antifa were responsible for Charlie's death — even before a single fact about the shooter or motive was public. I can now confidently state that i believe that Nick was inserted into the CK timeline to sell the official fedslop story to Gen Z that “crazy leftists” killed Charlie, long before any evidence supported it as well as to help create an fake alibi for Andrew Kolvet. That is not organic journalism. That is a jacketed asset doing exactly what he was put there to do. The official story is collapsing under the weight of the evidence. Receipts matter. Locations matter. Timelines matter. Do your own research, trust your instinct and believe what your own eyes are telling you. Do not blindly follow whatever your favorite podcaster is tells you. Shoutout to my amazing researcher KK for helping me research and put together this story. This gal is the best and you guys definitely want to be following her. CC: Nick shirley Candace Owens

Aidan Gomez (Aidan Gomez) is a computer scientist, co-author of the seminal paper ‘Attention Is All You Need,’ and the CEO of Cohere. In this episode, we discussed his upbringing in the cabin his grandfather built in Codrington, a small town North of Brighton, and the values that were instilled in him through his family. We explored his path from Codrington to his undergraduate studies at the University of Toronto, emailing Geoffrey Hinton, and joining Google Brain where he co-wrote the paper on transformers. We discussed how he met his co-founders Ivan Zhang and Nick Frosst, and his insights on what it means to build a meaningful, successful company in Canada. Aidan shares his conviction about what is at stake — for Canada and for the world at large. This is a conversation about family, values, and what it means to live with conviction. The Other Stuff is hosted by internetVin — filmmaker, entrepreneur, and possibly the most curious man on Earth. Produced by New.

We explored his path from Codrington to his undergraduate studies at the University of Toronto, emailing Geoffrey Hinton, and joining Google Brain where he co-wrote the paper on transformers. We discussed how he met his co-founders Ivan Zhang and Nick Frosst, and his insights on what it means to build a meaningful, successful company in Canada. Aidan shares his conviction about what is at stake — for Canada and for the world at large. This is a conversation about family, values, and what it means to live with conviction. The Other Stuff is hosted by internetVin — filmmaker, entrepreneur, and possibly the most curious man on Earth. Produced by New.
