Q post #144 What co’s rec large cash injections by Clowns In America?
Now the “answers” posted for post 144 refer only to amazon, but q said “co’s” as in companies not “co” like a single company and q says “details matter” as demonstrated with words and letters dropped, spaces in posts, tweet timestamps etc.
So to answer q’s question:
What co’s rec large cash injections by Clowns In America?
I searched google for “investments from CIA” or “investment from CIA”
You will find several stories about In-q-tel which they call them “The investment arm of the CIA”
(I’ve posted the links to those stories to you previously from Fortune, Business Insider, The Wall Street Journal and others)
You Will Also find a book Titled “In-Q-Tel: A New Partnership
Between the CIA and the Private Sector”
https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/intelligence-history/in-q-tel - The origins of the concept that has become In-Q-Tel are traceable to Dr. Ruth David, a former CIA Deputy Director for Science and Technology. She and her Deputy, Joanne Isham, were the first senior Agency officials to understand that the information revolution required the CIA to forge new partnerships with the private sector and design a proposal for radical change. The timing of the proposal was fortuitous. The Director of Central Intelligence (DCI), George Tenet, had just launched his Strategic Direction initiative that included technology as one of its areas for review. The study made a direct link between the Agency’s future technology investments and improving its information gathering and analysis capabilities.
By the summer of 1998, the Agency had assembled a few senior Agency staff employees with an entrepreneurial bent and empowered them to take Dr. David’s original concept and flesh it out. Aided by a consulting group and a law firm, they devoted the next four months to making the rounds in Silicon Valley and elsewhere, putting the concept through the wringer. Much of the time was spent listening. Many they met with were often critical of one aspect or another of the concept. But, whether they were venture capitalists, Chief Executive Officers (CEO), Chief Technical Officers (CTO) or congressmen and staffers, they all eagerly immersed themselves in spirited debates that enriched the Agency team and drove the concept in new directions.
You will also find the In-Q-Tel website and their portfolio https://www.iqt.org/portfolio/ of over 200 companies focused on Biology, Chemical Detection, Collaboration, Communications, Cyber & Mobile Security, Data Analytics, Data Management, Detection & Analysis, Digital Imagery, Materials & Power, Mission Tools And Optical Technology, Sensor Technology And Video Imaging
I found this particularity interesting.
https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2803266-Iqtdoc.html - It’s the Guest speakers list at this In-Q-Tel CEO summit from 2016 on page 10:
Robert Work - Deputy Secretary of Defense
Robert Cardillo - Director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency
And Wait for It!
James B Comey - Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation
Very interesting find...
The left (especially the AntiFirstAmendment) but a huge swath of the University / barista crowd, loathe the CIA with a purple passion.
All the right would have to do, would be to demonstrate effectively, that Google and other Silicon Valley companies...are in the thrall of the CIA.
Good times ensue as blue-on-blue fireworks light up the night sky.
Dude. That’s a GOLD MINE of information. You have found the motherlode. The nexus of CIA taking over social media, much like they took over journalism in previous years. Wow!
NICE piece of work there! Great info and all tied up in a neat little package too...
This helps to explain why I hear the Silicon Valley referred to as a CIA operation.
Early on in Q research, I came across the acronym FANG and it stands for Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, and Google. It was asserted that these are information hubs all collecting information on citizens. Recall Maxine Waters bragging that Obama was creating a database unlike any the world had ever seen and it had information on everyone and everything.
And now the social media has clamped down hard on conservatives and those who question the narrative re the school shooting. Twitter and Facebook are banning users who contradict the CIA narrative. Youtube channels are being deleted as follows: Youtube searches back through a few years of videos, flags one or two and then flags a current video and three strikes means the channel is deleted. This ensures that the deleted channel/person cannot respond to negative input re videos in time to avoid deletion (that’s WHY Youtube goes back and retroactively flags videos years old).
Note that Limbaugh called out Obama’s ridiculous requirement that no one report on what he said at that sports conference he recently attended. In it, Obama says that there’s a problem in social media in that people are developing their own “facts” and said we have to think about that (breaking from the narrative).
And John Podesta says Jared K. should start wearing Kevlar for information John claims he’s “leaking”.
The deep state it hauling back on the reins of freedom of information to try to stop the sharing of information.
Thou shall not speak!
I think you’ve convinced me.
