This website has been under a lens ever since Lewinsky/Clinton in the 90s. The Clinton DOJ first started watching this website during his scandals.

Waves of membership in 2001, 2003, 2008, up to 2019. Foreign sock-puppets signing on.

There are many foreign intelligence agencies that watch this site for the ‘pulse’. They are members and anonymous donors.

Maybe this site will die? Once we’re no longer useful.
