“Can’t we just be Mexico or Paraguay and have peace and quiet while things mostly go to hell?” — Matt Taibbi A pro-Peltola political action committee (49th State PAC) paid $87,000 to an Ohio consulting company run by one Jerid Kurtz (operating under the name “Zane”) to compile a list of all the Dan Sullivans in Alaska and recruit one to run for Dan S. Sullivan’s Senate seat. They succeeded, finding Dan J., age 69, a retired US Forest Service employee and schoolteacher, in Petersburg, AK, who had never run for anything before. In late May 2026, he filed as...

FeelGoodThoughts@feelgoodtale On April 6, 1967, 20-year-old Douglas Hegdahl, a farm kid from South Dakota, was knocked overboard from the USS Canberra in the South China Sea. By dawn, he was a prisoner of war in North Vietnam. Unlike the captured pilots who arrived in Hanoi, Doug had little military training or intelligence experience. His captors saw a confused, inexperienced young sailor and assumed he was too simple to be dangerous. Doug made a decision that would change his life and the lives of hundreds of others: he let them believe it. He acted clumsy, confused, and almost comically incompetent. His...

How medical freedom was eroded, and what it will take to restore it. If you raise cows and a feed mill sells you a contaminated batch, you can take the mill to court. The same holds for the dealer who sold you a mower with a faulty blade guard, the maker of a trailer hitch that shears on the highway, or the manufacturer of any other defective product. Product liability law is straightforward. Most people who farm understand it without a lawyer. Now take your daughter to the pediatrician for a routine childhood shot. If that shot injures her, federal...

“We are also starting to consult federal workers on how to do some blocking inside the govt agencies during emergency situations — but please do not put that on the form.” —Eric Manton, of the DRG They put it on the form, though, cuz somebody screwed up. Oopsie. . . . Get this: the reason that a color revolution is underway at all in America is not really political anymore — if it ever even was. It’s because a whole lot of people have committed crimes against this country. And with each wave of attempted sedition, they have compounded their...

JoeLange@JoeLange·18hThere’s a reason why Zelensky doesn’t want another election.And it’s the same reason that he doesn’t want to end the war in Ukraine.He’s a really unpopular dictator in Ukraine and would lose an honest election in a landslide and then face justice for his war crimes against his own people.But canceling elections, wasn’t the only thing Zelensky did.He then “suspended” all political parties and then banned them. Otherwise, you would have seen huge uprisings in Ukraine against Zelensky.After that, he consolidated the large TV networks into one that he controlled and also banned the independent networks. He’s been throwing independent...

“Everybody's restless and they got no place to go / Someone's always trying to tell them something they already know / So their anger and resentment flow.” —Warren Zevon, Mohammed’s Radio In the stark October light, events and personalities skulk in the shadows like scavengers in an orchard of poison fruit. The dread builds as the dooryards get populated with the motorized effigies of blood-beasts, werewolves, phantoms, and ghouls. Halloween and Election Day have become the conflated celebration of a national death trip. How has it come down to our country, in a crucial election, seriously entertaining the antics of...

A wide variety of alien species zoomed around planet Earth in different types of UFOs — including beings that looked like Greek gods, 7-foot tall reptiles and small grays — and have killed US service members, UFO whistleblower David Grusch claimed on a jaw-dropping Joe Rogan podcast. Grusch, a retired Air Force officer and former intelligence officer at the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency and the National Reconnaissance Office, claimed to have become aware of these belief-stretching details through his work for the UAP Task Force in 2020. “Even for me, ex-deep state intel officer, I’m like, I cannot believe I’m...

Sayer Ji@sayerjigmi1/ 86% of Americans told the Washington Post they want every Epstein file released.Nearly 3.5 million pages already are. But the problem is that almost no one has read or thoroughly evaluated them.I’ve spent nine months reading them, with my team. Here is what’s in the public record, with the documents:Sep 27, 2026 Sayer Ji@sayerjigmi·Sep 272/ The files are not mainly a story about one man’s crimes, though those are documented and monstrous.They show finance, philanthropy, science, and state power operating as one, with a convicted predator at the switchboard for a decade after his 2008 conviction.My primary conclusion...

In the final months of his life, former CIA agent Joseph Spencer gathered his family and told them he had many secrets he needed to share with the world in the form of a deathbed confession. In the final months of his life, former CIA agent Joseph Spencer gathered his family and told them he had many secrets he needed to share with the world in the form of a deathbed confession. But in 2023 his deathbed confession is gaining attention because everything he predicted is happening as we speak, like clockwork – one chilling prediction after another. The former...

And now, Trump has just made sure 300 million Americans see it, too.The speech everyone’s talking about: Kennedy’s address to the American Newspaper Publishers Association, April 27, 1961.

ransomnote: I'm concerned about potential abuse of Apple's ear bud technology, carefully designed with extensive built-in electrodes to obtain 'Mind Tapping' information from consumers. With voter ID gaining popularity, might Apple's 2023 patent point to the next gen 'alternative' to stealing elections?In a 2023 patent, Apple identified technology for a "Biosignal Sensing Device Using Dynamic Selection of Electrodes (Your earbudes can acquire information from your brain in a 'non-ivasive' manner.) Below I pulled together some information (Apple's patent, Grok, related articles) to try to determine if this patent was just the sensing portion of what actually became 'sensing-responding' technology (e.g.,...

The content intrigued me so I found the whole video (1 hr 11 min), posted the video page description of it and had GROK summarize the transcript (below).TLDR: The midterm elections are framed as decisive. They will determine whether the United States continues shifting toward sovereignty or remains controlled, trapped, and fighting endless proxy wars.
