Jim Jordan, Silence, and the Ritual of Control Wrestling rooms. Masonic slips. AIPAC strings. Jim Jordan wasn’t chosen to fight the system. He was processed to protect it. They paint him as a warrior. A patriot. A populist pit bull. But behind the rolled-up sleeves and scripted outrage is a man who passed his test the way all useful actors do: With silence. Because in the Beast System, the path to power always begins with ritual. And Jim Jordan passed his. The Abuse He Watched From 1987 to 1995, Jim Jordan served as assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State University. During that time, Dr. Richard Strauss sexually abused at least 177 young men—most while Jordan was on staff. And everyone knew. “It was common knowledge,” former wrestlers told NBC. “Strauss showered with us. He groped us during exams. Everyone knew—including Jordan.” One athlete described: “I had a thumb injury… went into Strauss’ office… and he started pulling down my wrestling shorts.” Jordan didn’t speak up. He didn’t intervene. He didn’t protect them. What he did do, years later, was call one of the whistleblowers—crying, groveling, and begging him to lie: “He’s throwing us all under the bus. He’s a coward.” —Adam DiSabato, public testimony But cowardice isn’t the right word. Obedience is. In every ritualized power structure—Freemasonry, cartels, Hollywood, politics—the initiation is the same: Will you stay silent while innocence is destroyed in front of you? Silence isn’t a failure—it’s a future. It proves loyalty. It makes you useful. And once proven, the doors open. [I recommend reading article on my Substack for full experience, link below] The Masonic Nod In 2013, Jordan stood before Congress to honor the late Judge John F. Kuffner. After listing his military service, Jordan dropped this: “He received Mason of the Year honors in 2008 and was a 50-year member of Mercer Lodge No. 121…” —Congressional Record, Vol. 159, Pt. 11, p. 16554 Pause. Why would a Congressman spotlight Masonic credentials in a federal tribute? Why cite the exact lodge? Why honor a “Mason of the Year” award like it’s a military medal? Because it’s a tribute to those who understand the hierarchy. Masonic honors aren’t filler—but milestones. And they’re recognized by those who value the chain of oaths behind them. Jordan didn’t mention that by accident. He mentioned it because he’s one of them. Zion Before Nation Now look at his donors: • AIPAC • Koch Industries • The NRA Jordan is not grassroots. He’s network-approved. He’s never criticized: • Israeli spyware exports • Gov ties to Epstein’s network • Thiel’s Palantir role in predictive policing • Biometric surveillance Because he can’t. You don’t bite the hand that feeds you, especially when it’s also the one watching. The Big Tech Deception Jordan has publicly positioned himself as a staunch opponent of Big Tech censorship, launching investigations and issuing subpoenas to major tech companies like Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft, alleging collusion with the Biden administration to suppress conservatives. However, this public stance contrasts with his actions behind the scenes. Jordan has accepted campaign contributions from tech giants, including Google, and has opposed antitrust measures aimed at breaking up these companies. Supporting Big Tech monopoly while chanting freedom. Shit like this bothers me much more than liberal retardation—but that’s a story for another time. Moreover, his close relationship with Elon Musk, a major tech figure, raises questions about his true intentions. Jordan has praised Musk’s efforts to combat censorship and has collaborated with him on various initiatives, including legislative changes that could benefit Musk’s business interests and military contracts. This duality suggests that Jordan’s public crusade against Big Tech may serve as a smokescreen, shielding deeper alliances and agendas. More below 👇🏻

There’s an old clip that still makes people stop and watch all the way through: Mickey Thomas and Starship’s current female singer standing onstage, performing “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now” with total commitment and not a hint of embarrassment. The red-haired woman in a graphic tee, shorts, and thigh-high boots sings and dances at the same time; the man in sunglasses and a patterned shirt waves his arms, leans into the mic, and carries himself as if it were still 1987. Even though commenters immediately spotted that they’re lip-syncing to the original recording, they perform as if they’re single-handedly saving the song. This is Starship’s 1987 hit, the theme song for Mannequin-the story of an unemployed artist who falls in love with a mannequin that comes to life. Diane Warren and Albert Hammond wrote it; Grace Slick and Mickey Thomas sang the duet. It went to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, earned an Oscar nomination, and the official video intercut scenes from the film with Grace Slick herself playing the living mannequin opposite Mickey Thomas. At the time it was dismissed as mere movie promotion. It became one of the most memorable videos of the decade instead. This concert clip is not that original video. Grace Slick retired long ago. The woman standing next to Mickey Thomas now belongs to a later generation of the band. Yet they still throw themselves into it completely: singing, dancing, interacting, never once looking like they’re just going through the motions. It’s the same energy Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, and Danny DeVito once brought when they put on matching white suits, pretended to play saxophone, and danced without a shred of self-consciousness in Billy Ocean’s video. Back then there was MTV. A single video played on a loop and the whole country watched it. Movie soundtracks were hit-making machines. Studios simply told the actors to jump into the video for fun, and they did—no branding meetings, no asking a stylist whether the outfit would diminish their star power. What about now? Everyone has their own playlists and algorithms; the first seven seconds have to hook the viewer or they swipe away. Stars (and even legacy bands) guard their images as tightly as pension-fund managers. Performing an old hit live while using a backing track to preserve the original vocal quality gets immediately called out. The kind of collective joy that comes from “everyone acting adorably silly together” is becoming rare. Everything is either too cool, too introspective, or too calculated. To be fair, we are remembering the best version of the past. The ’80s had plenty of bad songs and videos so strange you want to cover your eyes now. But that particular combination-a massive hit tied to a movie, famous people willing to goof off completely, and the atmosphere of an office year-end party that somehow became an international success-belonged to a system that no longer exists. It isn’t that no one wants to do it anymore. The conditions that once allowed it to happen naturally have disappeared. The next time you see Mickey Thomas and the red-haired singer performing “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now” onstage, go ahead and watch it again. Not because the old music is better than the new, but because sometimes we need a reminder that there was a time when a band and Hollywood’s biggest stars were willing to stand up, sing, dance, pretend to play instruments, and no one thought it was weird at all. That’s the part worth remembering.

I’d break the Zlatan issue for many people including yourself. Narratives have traveled and I’ve come to conclude that many of you don’t even know what happened with Zlatan at Barcelona. Zlatan’s major issue was with Pep, he had no single issue with Messi, none. Till date, he maintains that beef with Pep. On Piers Morgan, Zlatan said the mistake he did when he got to Barcelona was trying to fit in. He got off a wrong start with Pep because he drove a Ferrari to training. In his words, he said Pep told him that, in this place, players don’t drive a Ferrari. Zlatan said he didn’t drive his car for 7-8 months just to please Pep and try to fit in, which was his biggest regret. Zlatan said he wasn’t performing and went to see Pep in his office. Firstly he went to meet the higher people up there in the hierarchy, but they told him that they can’t interfere and he should speak to Pep himself. He went to meet Pep and told him that the new formation does not favor him. By the way, this is absolutely normal. I have attacked a video to Salah talking with Slot. In fact, you could hear Salah towards the end of that video say he was going to speak to Slot so they could change formations. This is normal in professional football. Players speak to their coaches, especially the big players. Zlatan said the formation does not give him more freedom and it won’t get the best out of him. It’s best he does not play because he’s not performing, Pep is also egoistic, he benched Zlatan for 4 games in a row after that meeting. Zlatan said he created fire afterwards, he started bringing his Ferrari to training and parking it in front of Pep’s office 😭. He said when he went to Manchester United, Pep was at City and Pep will never look him in the eye. I have been able to establish that Zlatan’s problem at Barcelona was Pep, he said it himself and this is the link. I don’t do GOAL, I do facts. ( How does Messi come into this? Zlatan, in his book, said Messi spoke to Pep about switching formations, this formation switch is what affected him. He was playing better in the previous formation, and scoring. This new formation meant he had no freedom and that’s what he said on Piers Morgan, he went to see Pep. This thing Zlatan said is what you guys have been running with. You & I are not privy to the conversation Messi had with Pep. Both parties have never addressed this before to give their side of the story, if they have, you can share me a link of them saying it just like I shared you that link (not screenshots from GOAL please, be serious for once). If any of their mates have addressed this before, please share too. Again, Zlatan’s issue at Barcelona was with Pep right from day 1 of driving a Ferrari, this has nothing to do with Messi. Let’s assume Messi spoke to Pep on changing formation, and Pep agreed, it’s on Pep and he’s the manager. Messi speaking to his manager is normal, just like Zlatan going to speak with Pep. If you listen to the video I attached of Salah, he clearly mentions he spoke to Slot on not defending, and he will still speak to Slot for them to adapt their formation because oppositions are finding out. Players are in constant communication with their managers. Whatever they spoke about, Pep is the manager not Messi. Easy with your bragging too, telling me you don’t just write and no one should dare you to bring evidences. After spending hours in your research, you even slept overnight, and the source you could reference is “Goal”😭 Listen to Zlatan talk about why he loves Messi so much, this was few days ago by the way Another Stop creating issues where there’s none.

I've really debated speaking out about TLC cooper because I have this intense anxiety about being marked as a girl that "causes drama", but I want to share my piece on why I don't think this is an isolated incident for him nor will it be the last time that he behaves this way due to the lack of discipline from FlyQuest. I've been competing in esports since 2017. I've been denied trials because of my gender, hit with every sexist remark, made fun of for my voice, and still despite it all, I compete. A few months ago, TLC delenaa posted a (now deleted) tier list ranking a bunch of different Marvel Rivals players from S to D tier. I forget what I was ranked to be honest, and didn't really pay it much mind until I received a DM from someone showing me that TLC cooper had said something along the lines of (since it's now deleted) "you have me below aramori?? are we serious right now??" At this point I didn't really keep stock of anyone in the scene, I'm particularly bad with names, and I usually don't pay any attention to who I'm playing versus unless they're old teammates of mine (I’ve said this in an interview with Shroud). I did NOT know who he was, only that he was a fellow peer in the competitive scene. my heart dropped when i saw his reply Why was he comparing himself to me when all of my teammates and every other strategist in the scene was also on the list? Why was he not mad that he was below Harvey or Karova, but instead, mad that he was lower than me? The answer left a bad taste in my mouth. Despite not really knowing me, never having played on a team with me, or even talked to me- he had a preconceived notion that I was "bad" or "less than" all of our peers. I responded (screenshot below) "what u say fuck me for" trying to make light of an extremely awkward situation. He responded (screenshot) "woah why are we assuming ily 💖 #MeToo" Me too? The movement where victims of sexual assault gathered an immense amount of courage to come forward and speak about their abusers? I’ve never posted about my own SA stories but why would he feel that its EVER okay to make a dig at someone for something as sinister as sexual assault. And why ME of all people? Because I'm a girl? LOL Me continued to spam #MeToo to me whenever we were in a scrim lobby together and i just never responded. What do you say to someone who makes light of SA? When I saw Ashlyn TTV's video, it didn't surprise me. I was so angry at the hate she received for her voice and him calling her "a fake one too". He had been extremely weird to me in the past but this solidified my feelings, that he was going to continue to behave inappropriately towards women in the scene, treating us as an "other" and insinuating that we are worse or less than because of our gender. All I want for the Marvel Rivals esports scene is for it to be inclusive. I want to be competing side by side with other women. This will NOT happen if we let incidents like this fester with no consequences. I know he is young and I want him to learn from his mistakes, but he needs to understand just how serious this is and how much it affects ALL the women in the scene, not just me and Ashlyn TTV. I'm not getting kicked, by the way.

🇨🇦 Mark Carney’s speech is a blueprint for managed subordination. Carney correctly identifies the collapse of the so-called “rules-based order”—a system that was always the dominion of the Anglo-American financial oligarchy—but deliberately misrepresents the solution. By framing it as a “rupture” to be navigated by middle powers, Carney substitutes true sovereignty with a managed multipolarity designed to preserve the monetarist architecture. His doctrines of “values-based realism” and “strategic autonomy” are not departures from the system, but lateral shifts within it, redistributing dependence among financial masters while leaving the underlying oligarchical control intact. The rhetoric of coalition-building and “variable geometry” masks a controlled hedge, not genuine nation-building. Carney’s call to “act consistently, applying the same standards to allies and rivals” is starkly contradicted by Canada’s Arctic policy. While Russia develops the Northern Sea Route with nuclear icebreakers, ports, and rising living standards for northern populations, Canada’s Arctic remains chronically underdeveloped. Indigenous communities were historically relocated as “human flagpoles” to assert sovereignty claims, and today the region offers its residents legalized marijuana and state-sanctioned euthanasia (MAID) instead of industrial and infrastructural opportunity. Under a sovereign approach, Canada could emulate Russia: building deep-sea ports, ice-capable shipbuilding, permanent settlements, and economic corridors to create livelihoods and a future for its northern population. Instead, the financial oligarchy’s dictates prevent such development, demonstrating the speech’s hypocrisy in practice. The repeated invocation of Václav Havel’s “living within a lie” crystallizes the deception. Carney presents himself as removing the old sign from the window of the previous order, while quietly installing a new sign for managed multipolarity. The “truth” he urges middle powers to recognize is selective: power is treated as geopolitical, not financial, leaving the true source of domination—the City of London/Wall Street monetarist system—entirely unacknowledged. The cage is never named, only redecorated. What is systematically excluded is the only alternative: a break from geopolitics through a coalition of sovereign nations focused on scientific and industrial development. This paradigm, exemplified by a US–Russia–China partnership, would render Carney’s multipolar theater obsolete. Its tangible potential is visible in the Canadian Arctic—a region currently stifled by oligarchical dictate. A sovereign development corridor could transform the north: a western gateway at Herschel Island for Asia trade; a central hub in the Coronation Gulf for mining and communities; an eastern gateway on Baffin Island for Atlantic access. Built with deep-water ports, all-season roads, modular nuclear power, and permanent settlements, it would offer a future of industry and purpose, not managed decline. This is the win-win, scientific development the oligarchy fears—a future built outside its financial cage. Contrast this suppressed vision with its living reality in the Russian North. The official music video «Первые на Севере!» ("The First in the North!") from Arkhangelsk Oblast, produced by blogger Demyan and promoted by Governor Alexander Tsybulsky, documents the material outcome of sovereign development policy: modern shipyards, bustling ports, scientific hubs, and civic pride in a region that is built up, not phased out. «Первые на Севере!» – A Portrait of Arctic Development This is the answer to the question Carney’s speech begs: What does a nation look like when it decides to build its own future? In sum, Carney’s speech is a sophisticated fraud. It uses compelling dissident language to sell continuity within the oligarchical system, portraying lateral realignment as sovereignty. Canada is not offered a path to true independence; it is being orchestrated into a pre-designed holding pattern, a multipolar client state in which the underlying monetarist disease persists. The Arctic blueprint for Canada is the living proof of what the oligarchy fears—and the Russian song, the soundtrack of what it prevents: a sovereign nation building its own future, scientifically and industrially, outside the financial cage.

ANNOUNCEMENT TOLEDO MUSEUM OF ART ACQUIRES ABYSSINIAN QUEEN NFT BY YATREDA ያጥሬዳ The museum has purchased the work using cryptocurrency on the Ethereum blockchain, the first time a major institution has made an acquisition of this kind. The Toledo Museum of Art (TMA) announces the acquisition of Abyssinian Queen by Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, the first work purchased by the museum in cryptocurrency. The work was purchased using a USD-stable coin called USDC, and the transfer will be made on the Ethereum blockchain. This acquisition marks the first time a major cultural institution has utilized cryptocurrency to purchase work for its collection. Abyssinian Queen is a unique, 1-of-1 NFT created from a single-channel video. The work is part of a series of four NFTs also titled “Abyssinian Queen,” recently on view in the House of Yatreda immersive installation within TMA’s Ethiopia at the Crossroads exhibition. The exhibition closed on November 10. Another work from the series, The Queen’s Guard, 2024, will be sold by Christie’s as part of the fall Christie’s 3.0 digital art sale, taking place online from December 4 through 17, 2024. This acquisition will diversify TMA’s growing digital art collection as it is the museum's first purchase of a work by Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, the digital artist collective based between Ethiopia, Kenya, and the United States, and TMA Labs’ 2024 Digital Artist in Residence. TMA also plans to acquire a digital artwork by Toledo-based Jordan Buschur, TMA Lab’s 2024 Community Digital Artist in Residence. Buschur and Yatreda ያጥሬዳ worked alongside one another throughout the residency, and their works will join TMA’s collection of works by 2023 Digital Artists in Residence Osinachi and Yusuf Lateef. “Abyssinian Queen is a welcome addition to our growing digital art collection,” said Adam Levine, Edward Drummond and Florence Scott Libbey President, Director and CEO of the Toledo Museum of Art. “The work connects with our historic holdings in meaningful ways while also contributing to our ongoing efforts to support the evolving digital arts ecosystem. When we buy a new artwork from a French gallery, we pay in euros; when we buy from an English auction house, we pay in pounds. In this case, we are purchasing from the web3 artist collective Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, so it only made sense to try to transact in their preferred currency.” Abyssinian Queen pays homage to the legendary queens of ancient Ethiopia, vividly bringing to life the rich history and folklore passed down through generations as cultural memory, now preserved in perpetuity on the blockchain. In Yatreda’s signature slow-motion, black-and-white format, the artwork showcases the queen journeying across ancient Ethiopia, carried and escorted by her devoted attendants. Vigilant guards stand watch, protecting the queen and her entourage within the lush, ancient forest. Adorned in traditional jewelry that reflects her exalted status and impressive lineage, the queen sits aloft on a throne strewn with grass—a symbol of fertility and renewal. As she moves between lands and kingdoms, she enacts the careful diplomacy for which she is known, a measured display of leadership and grace. The “Abyssinian Queen” series marks a new direction in Yatreda’s artistic practice. It moves away from recorded Ethiopian history and draws instead from Ethiopian cultural memory and the childhood imaginings of Kiya Tadele, founder and creative director of Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, and her sister, Roman Tadele. For Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, this turn towards the fantastical serves as a therapeutic counterbalance to the challenge of modernization, and blockchain ensures the lasting celebration and preservation of their Ethiopian heritage. "We are deeply honored by the Toledo Museum of Art’s decision to welcome a Yatreda ያጥሬዳ artwork into their permanent collection—an artwork that remains pure to the collective memory of my family and my country,” said Tadele. “What makes this moment truly remarkable is the museum’s recognition that Ethiopian art is not simply a collection of ancient artifacts but a living narrative. By embracing the blockchain as a modern canvas for this evolving story, the TMA team is pioneering a bold direction for institutions worldwide. We are deeply grateful to walk together down this path with TMA."

Are you confused⁉️ Want to know what happened⁉️ I gat you‼️ LaSheena Weekly, the mother of Chicago drill rapper FBG Duck (Carlton Weekly), has been highly public about her son’s 2020 murder by alleged O’Block affiliates and her pursuit of accountability‼️. There is no widely documented evidence that she specifically claimed Drake’s “Laugh Now Cry Later” (feat. Lil Durk) music video mocked her son’s death but she did say she felt a kind of way seeing Durk reaching such success when her kid was dead‼️ The murder of FBG Duck On August 4, 2020, 26-year-old Carlton Weekly (FBG Duck), affiliated with the Tookaville/STL/EBT faction of the Gangster Disciples, was shot multiple times (reports cite around 16–21 times) in broad daylight outside the Dolce & Gabbana store on Oak Street in Chicago’s upscale Gold Coast neighborhood‼️. He was shopping for clothes/gifts for his young son’s birthday‼️. His girlfriend and another man were wounded‼️. Prosecutors described it as a targeted hit in a long-running South Side gang conflict between Weekly’s group and the O’Block set of the Black Disciples (linked to Parkway Gardens)‼️. Surveillance and evidence showed an O’Block associate spotted him, alerted others, and a group arrived in vehicles and opened fire‼️. An informant claimed a bounty (initially $50,000, later raised to $100,000) had been placed on Duck; court filings and testimony tied aspects of this to King Von (Dayvon Bennett, a prominent O’Block-linked rapper who was himself killed in Atlanta in November 2020)‼️. In 2021–2023, six alleged O’Block members/associates were charged: Charles “C Murda” Liggins, Kenneth Roberson (or Robinson), Christopher “C Thang” Thomas, Marcus “Muwop” Smart, Tacarlos “Los” Offerd, and Ralph “Teezy”/“Tall” Turpin‼️. In January 2024, a federal jury convicted all six of murder in aid of racketeering and conspiracy to commit murder (some also on firearms counts related to the shooting)‼️. Life sentences without parole were mandated for the murder-in-aid-of-racketeering convictions; sentencings followed‼️. The case involved evidence of the gang rivalry, diss tracks (including Duck’s “Dead Bitches” aimed at rivals shortly before his death, and tracks from the other side), cell data, surveillance, and witness testimony about the enterprise and the hit‼️. Mama Duck’s role and public stance LaSheena Weekly lost multiple children (reports and her own statements reference several sons and a daughter to violence or other tragedies, including earlier losses). She has been outspoken since Duck’s death: calling for peace and no retaliation in Chicago, reviewing case materials, advocating via groups like Mothers of Peace, doing interviews (including with VladTV and No Jumper), and posting frequently online. She celebrated the 2024 convictions and later pursued a civil wrongful-death lawsuit (filed around October 2024) naming Lil Durk (Derrick Banks), King Von’s estate, their labels/OTF, the convicted individuals, the city, the store, and security firms‼️. The suit alleges involvement in or monetization of the violence and rivalry that led to the killing (Durk and Von were described as high-ranking figures in the broader Black Disciples-linked scene; OTF was portrayed as tied to the enterprise)‼️. A judge later allowed aspects of the case against Durk and labels to proceed‼️. She has repeatedly criticized Lil Durk for posthumous references/disses to Duck (notably lines in tracks like the previewed/released material around “Should’ve Ducked” or related songs, where she felt he was capitalizing on or disrespecting her son’s death while she was grieving)‼️. She has accused figures on that side of involvement or of profiting from the cycle of violence‼️. At times she has also engaged on broader peace efforts and reacted to tributes or other mentions‼️. She has described strong emotional reactions to footage and music tied to the actual killing and the rivalry‼️.
