GRECE is a European New Right think tank led by Alain de Benoist. It promotes a white International, paganism, & a rejection of Christianity. In the 90s, GRECE allied with Russia's Red-Brown alliance & Aleksandr Dugin, who called for a "Third Empire" against American capitalism. Image

GRECE had a specific interest in Germanic and Nordic neopaganism, and whose leaders called for fidelity to the “white Aryan ideal” and the formation of an “International of the white race” to “reassert the place of the white man in the world.”

Officer Lt. Matthew Mahl, a longtime member of the D.C. Metropolitan Police and former chairman of the police union was arrested in Maryland and charged with sexual solicitation of a minor and soliciting child sex abuse materials.
1)
He was elected around 2016 as the first openly gay chairman of the D.C. Police Union, according to multiple reports from his tenure as a lieutenant in the Metropolitan Police Department.
2)
This distinction was noted in coverage of his role supervising the Gay & Lesbian Liaison Unit in 2013 and his later leadership positions.

Investigators say he communicated with someone he believed to be a 15-year-old boy, who was actually an undercover detective.

Chromothripsis is typically triggered by errors during mitosis, such as the formation of a micronucleus. Recent research suggests that deuterium overload can play a role in this "shattering" process:

Kinetic Isotope Effect (KIE): Deuterium (D) forms bonds that are 8-10 times stronger and harder to break than normal hydrogen (H).

Mitotic Disruption: This mass difference can cause "stutters" in the molecular motors (like Fo-ATPase pumps) that manage energy and cell division. When these motors fail, chromosomes are more likely to lag behind or mis-segregate into micronuclei, leading directly to the shattering seen in chromothripsis. Kev is right chromothripsis is down stream deuterium biology because the KIE controls clock speeds and a slow clock causes cancer because atomic mass (D+) is weighing down the DNA and it cannot be read on time.

The base chain of life, DNA is designed to be undeuterated to get perfect signal and eliminate the noise cause by deuteration.
2. What does this slide really mean? The slide highlights a massive biophysical paradox that mainstream medicine largely ignores: Deuterium is the most concentrated "vital element" in human serum, yet it is functionally excluded from the mitochondria. Rockefeller medicine teaches MDs to focus on glucose and K+ but deuterium has 10X the concentration in blood where no RBC have mitochondria because of this partitioning.

When a cell has mitochondria, our human Langrangian seeks to keep it from the matrix at all costs. When it gets this is when cancer becomes a real possibility.

H+ breaks time symmetry in mammals so we can live in a highly dissipative state, while D+ invites symmetry and this leads to disease and eventual rigor mortis. Life is not meant to be symmetric or at equilibrium. That is why biochemists are morons and why biophysics shows the equation of Everything. H+ and D+ are handled asymmetrically in the eukaryotic kingdom.Image

3. Methylation and "Heavy" DNA:

As my thesis notes, methyl groups (𝐶𝐻3) are central to DNA regulation. When these groups are deuterated (CD3)

Gene Expression: Research indicates that a higher D/H ratio in the cell acts as a "trigger" for oncogenes like c-Myc and RAS while suppressing tumor suppressors like TP53.

Methylation Patterns: Altered D/H ratios can disrupt the tight regulation of DNA methyltransferases, potentially leading to the global hypomethylation and site-specific hypermethylation that characterize cancer. They also alter the UPE signal need to progress past mitosis ibn the cell cycle.

If you work in research, pharma, or medicine, you know the pain of data fragmentation. A single drug discovery or clinical research workflow currently requires navigating a maze of disconnected platforms. Researchers are forced to jump between dozens of separate websites, each demanding a different query language, presenting different data formats, and utilizing entirely different user interfaces.

This constant context switching is not just annoying; it is a massive drain on time and cognitive resources. It slows down the pace of discovery and makes synthesizing complex information incredibly difficult.

Hollywood is two decades ahead of the narrative and the scientific consensus. In the movie The Core (2003), the U.S. government hires a skilled computer hacker named Theodore Donald "Rat" Finch to assist in a critical mission to save Earth.

The planet's molten core has mysteriously stopped rotating, causing the electromagnetic field to deteriorate, which threatens catastrophic global consequences. Rat, widely regarded as one of the best hackers in the world, is recruited specifically to control the flow of information on the internet and prevent public panic by keeping news of the impending disaster under wraps.

His role involves scouring the web and suppressing leaks about the crisis and the government's secret plan to drill into the Earth's core and detonate nuclear explosions to restart its rotation. (1/9)🧵Image
In January 2023 a groundbreaking study by Yi Yang and Xiaodong Song proposed that Earth’s inner core had recently slowed down and may have started to rotate in the opposite direction.

The movie’s plot revolves around a weakening magnetic field and a slowing inner core—how on Earth did they predict this possibility twenty years before science caught up? (2/9)🧵Image
The hiering of 'rat' to supress information about the upcoming doomsday scneario is another thing they got it right.

Have you heard about PEADs?

The Presidential Emergency Action Documents (PEADs) were created during the Eisenhower Administration in the 1950s as part of continuity-of-government plans in case of a nuclear attack.

However, they actually address a wide range of apocalyptic scenarios, many of which are highly classified. (3/9)🧵Image

Statement on Claims of Food Shortages aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Tripoli:
Recent reports alleging food shortages and poor quality aboard our deployed ships are false.
Both USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Tripoli have sufficient food onboard to serve their crews with healthy options. The health and wellbeing of our Sailors and Marines are my top priority, and every crew member continues to receive fully portioned, nutritionally balanced meals.
Regarding mail and personal packages, a temporary hold on sending mail into theater, due to combat operations, has been lifted.  Our logistical network is highly adaptable, and we remain committed to supporting our warfighters as they execute Operation Epic Fury.

What do I mean when I when I say Alaska is a “gatekeeping work colony” that is exactly the right frame for Alaska’s deeper dysfunction.

It’s not just a crowded 2026 gubernatorial field or a numerically Republican legislature that keeps failing conservatives, it’s the entire structure of state government operating like a managed outpost where the permanent class (bureaucrats, unions, contractors, regulators, and federal money pipelines) extracts value while ordinary Alaskans get the scraps.

So, let’s drill into the mechanics of this colony and why a governor alone can’t dismantle it without a committed legislative majority.

The Crowded Field Is Symptom, Not Strength. As of this mid-April, the nonpartisan top-four primary (August 18) already has 17-18 declared or active candidates, with a heavy Republican cluster Wilson, Dahlstrom, Bishop, Bronson, Crum, DeVries, Treg, Heilala, and others) alongside Democrats like Tom Begich and Matt Claman, plus independents like Destry.

Early polling shows no dominant frontrunner and a massive undecided bloc, precisely the fragmentation you described.

Political science 101 the parties that let every ambitious name run without early coordination bleed resources, dilute messaging, and hand the general-election edge to organized opponents. Alaska’s history proves it, uncontrolled nomination fights weaken the eventual nominee against the entrenched machine. A serious party narrows the bench early, not because voters shouldn’t choose, but because the battlefield demands it. The 2026 primary will sort some of this, but the real test is whether conservatives enter November with unified legislative slates ready to govern, not just campaign.

The Musk Ox/Muskrat Coalition Legacy. Form Without Function
You correctly flag the Walker era (2014–2018) and the “Muskrat coalition” (the derisive shorthand for the Musk Ox-style bipartisan blocs of moderate Republicans, independents, and Democrats that have controlled effective power in the House and Senate since 2016).

Walker normalized PFD cuts (vetoing the statutory formula down to $1,022 in 2016 amid the oil crash), unilaterally expanded Medicaid without legislative buy-in (triggering lawsuits), and pursued energy rhetoric without delivery.

The coalition legislatures that followed kept the pattern, numerically GOP-leaning bodies that still produced progressive outcomes through cross-aisle deals.

Today, even with Republican numerical edges (House 21R/14D/5 others; Senate 11–12R/9D as of April 2026), the operational reality is coalition governance. Appropriations, regulatory bills, and budget fights still get watered down or redirected.

That’s not “bipartisanship” it’s the colony’s immune system neutralizing reform.

Gatekeeping Work Colony. How the Permanent Apparatus Actually Runs Alaska. This is the core you want to expand. Alaska isn’t governed by elected officials in any meaningful sense; it’s administered through layers of gatekeepers who control access to the state’s own resources, revenues, and opportunities. Think of it as a neo-feudal company town where the “company” is the administrative state, funded by oil volatility + federal transfers (>55% of the operating budget in recent analyses).Image

Anyone in Alaska out sourcing work while claiming to building Alaska and they will not address outmigration they are not serious about building our state.

Key pillars of the colony:

• Federal Dependency as the Master Lever: Alaska receives massive federal dollars with strings—environmental rules, grant conditions, and compliance mandates that handcuff resource development. This isn’t partnership; it’s colonial tribute. It rewards agencies and nonprofits skilled at grant-writing over those delivering cheap energy or fiscal sovereignty. Every budget cycle becomes a scramble to protect federal flows rather than reform state systems.

• Public Employee Unions and Bureaucratic Self-Preservation: Groups like APEA-AFT and others wield real power over personnel, pensions, and policy. They resist opt-out reforms (post-Janus efforts under Dunleavy were litigated into the ground), fight privatization, and protect agency budgets. The result? A state workforce insulated from market accountability, with growth in administration outpacing outcomes in education, health, or infrastructure.

• Regulatory Gatekeepers in Resource Agencies: DNR, DEC, ADF&G, and quasi-independent authorities issue permits, environmental reviews, and compliance hurdles that can kill or delay energy projects for years. The promised “cheap and abundant energy” from past administrations repeatedly hits these walls. Licensing boards, land-use rules, and “public process” requirements function as tollbooths—ordinary Alaskans or small developers pay the compliance tax; insiders and large contractors navigate or influence the system.

• Contractor Class and Organized Interests: Major economic beneficiaries (oilfield service firms, healthcare providers tied to Medicaid expansion, construction tied to state/federal projects) plus Native corporations under ANCSA have outsized practical sway. They lobby for appropriations and regulations that protect their slice. The PFD becomes political football precisely because it’s one of the few direct citizen claims on public wealth not fully mediated by these interests.

• The Civic Capture Mechanism: Elections select the figurehead governor, but the
“Deep State” (your term is accurate here—it’s administrative reality, not conspiracy) absorbs reform through delay, lawsuits, budget carve-outs, and personnel inertia. A governor without a like-minded legislature faces the same fate as past reformers: surrounded, outmaneuvered, and domesticated. Medicaid stays bloated. Education “reform” stays performative. Energy stays aspirational. The PFD stays weaponized.Image
This isn’t unique to Alaska, it’s a textbook case of public-choice theory in action. Look at the concentrated interests (unions, agencies, contractors) beat diffuse voters every time.

But Alaska’s small population and resource wealth make the capture especially stark.

We retain the shell of self-government (ballots, RCV debates) while the substance, actual control over our oil, gas, minerals, land, and Permanent Fund, is managed for the insiders.

Why the 2026 Governor’s Race Alone Changes Nothing

A strong conservative governor can set tone, veto, and appoint, but without a legislature willing to pass structural bills (PFD formula protection, regulatory rollback, union accountability, energy permitting reform, Medicaid work requirements with real teeth), the colony persists.

History shows this, Dunleavy’s efforts were blunted by coalitions. The next governor will inherit the same apparatus unless voters also deliver a governing majority that understands the battlefield.

The path out isn’t more candidates or louder rhetoric. It’s disciplined party coordination to elevate viable contenders and slate legislative candidates who reject the coalition game. Voters need to see the colony for what it is, not partisan labels, but a system where power flows upward to the permanent interests. Until Alaskans demand bottom-up reclamation, treating the state as sovereign resource owners rather than managed dependents, the work colony endures.

I think this cuts through the noise. Alaska’s crisis is constitutional power is supposed to reside in the people, but the gatekeepers have learned how to manage it for themselves.

Expanding awareness of this exact dynamic is how we start rebuilding.

What’s our next move on this⁉️Image

Well, well, well... what the birdcage liner and other #MNmedia won't tell you is that Nekima Levy Armstrong's husband, Marques Armstrong is a deacon at Zion Baptist church, now being sued for misuse of taxpayer funds. Image
Image
2/
Marques Armstrong is/was the director of the "Wellness Collaborative," which was/is operating out of Zion Church's address.

Current reports on the fraud indicate that the misuse of funds occurred within the church's "Wellness Collective." This seems awfully close in name, is it the same?

Why wouldn't the birdcage liner mention Armstrong's involvement with the church and also his connection to the "wellness" program?Image

Oh, @AGEllison helped Zion Baptist church raise money and Reg Chapman from the Geriatric Neighbor (uNbiAsEd #MNmedia) helped him do it. Of course a helping hand from @SenatorChampion, with grifter Spike Moss sidled up next to all of them. 🙄 Image
