An 8-step, dead-simple algorithmic trading framework billion hedge fund managers follow: 
1/ The idea
Look for market anomalies that repeat.
Your strategy should be based on some economic rationale. In other words, “using machine learning” is not a trading strategy.

The LinkedIn job hunting demo is the most relatable one.
The agent goes through a real LinkedIn application flow:
* Finds a role
* Opens the form
* Uses the resume
* Fills the required fields
* Stops before Submit
That last part matters.
The agent does the boring work.
The final decision stays with the user.

The Governor's property tax proposal was released roughly 24 hours ago.
The Legislature is expected to vote on it early next week.
For a proposal that could fundamentally restructure local government finance in Florida, that's warp speed.
As I see it, lawmakers have three options. Realistically, only two are viable. 🧵

2. Option #1: Gavel in. Gavel out.
I call this the responsible choice.
Tell the Governor this proposal is too important, too complicated, and too unfinished to rush onto the ballot and get members comfortable over the weekend.
Property taxes are not some obscure revenue source. They are the financial foundation of cities, counties, schools, fire districts, and local infrastructure.

3. You can support tax relief and still demand a serious plan.
These aren't contradictory positions. Florida has spent decades building local government around property taxes.
You don't remove a load-bearing wall and call it renovation.
Hope is not a strategy!

GPS—I know exactly who Spielberg has been meeting with since 2017, think Five Eyes (FVEY), after a New York Times article on the Pentagon’s UFO program (“Glowing Auras and ‘Black Money’”). Including trips to Germany, Brussels, Italy, the UK, and France.
The story was written by Spielberg, and the screenplay was written by longtime collaborator David Koepp.
🎬 The Spielberg Psyop: Deconstructing Disclosure Day
Let’s cut through the marketing fog. Disclosure Day, releasing June 12, 2026, isn’t some innocent return to Close Encounters nostalgia. This is a $115 million narrative weapon, and the target is far more specific than “entertainment.”

🔭 The Setup: What We’re Actually Watching
The plot skeleton is straightforward enough: Emily Blunt plays a Kansas City meteorologist whose live broadcast is hijacked—she becomes an involuntary conduit, speaking in tongues on air, relaying messages from something non-human. Josh O’Connor plays a whistleblower named Daniel Kellner who’s stolen classified data proving extraterrestrial contact. Colin Firth is the corporate/government antagonist trying to suppress disclosure. The central conflict: does the truth get released to all eight billion people simultaneously, or does it stay controlled by institutions?
Spielberg himself said it at CinemaCon: this film is “more truth than fiction.” Not speculation. He told audiences to bring a seatbelt. The screenwriter, David Koepp, went through 42 drafts—the most of his entire career, including Jurassic Park and War of the Worlds. You don’t do 42 drafts for a popcorn flick.

🎯 The Psychological Operation: Soft Disclosure and Ontological Conditioning
This is the core of what’s happening. The film functions on multiple levels simultaneously.
Level 1: Predictive Programming
Hollywood has always been the CIA’s preferred delivery mechanism for acclimating the public to paradigm shifts. Before the public accepts a new reality, they need to have already imagined it through fiction. This is basic psychological operations doctrine—reduce the shock of revelation by pre-exposing the population to the concept in a controlled, emotionally-managed format.
The timing is not subtle. The film arrives after:
- Congressional UAP hearings with whistleblowers testifying about “non-human biologics”
- Pentagon officials using the word “disclosure” in official briefings
- The documentary Age of Disclosure (directed by Dan Farah, who worked with Spielberg on Ready Player One) breaking streaming records on Amazon Prime within 48 hours
As X user @MarioNawfal noted: “Is this entertainment, or the first step in preparing the public for ontological shock?” It’s both. That’s the point.
Level 2: The Agnosticism Trap
Koepp explicitly laid out the theological agenda in his MovieMaker interview. He compared belief in aliens directly to belief in God, then declared: “the only reasonable position is agnostic.”
This isn’t casual musing. This is the philosophical payload. The film positions uncertainty as virtue and conviction as arrogance. By equating extraterrestrial intelligence with divine intelligence, the movie creates a framework where:
- Belief in God becomes equivalent to belief in aliens—both are “unseen entities”
- Religious faith is reframed as one possible interpretation among many
- The “reasonable” position is to admit you don’t know anything for certain
This is epistemological sabotage dressed as open-mindedness.

Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control is abbreviated as OFAC, but when folks get administrative subpoenas from them, they often mispronounce the acronym.
According to CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin, the email from OFAC was sent to the other co-founder, Jodie Evans's, spam folder.
OFAC is seeking a lot of information from Codepink regarding their visit to Cuba.

A tiny American destroyer charged first into the path of the Yamato, the largest battleship ever built.
Her five inch shells could not seriously hurt battleship armor.
She charged anyway, leading the way into an entire enemy fleet.
What her crew did saved thousands of American lives.
This is the story of the USS Johnston..🧵1/6

This is the story of the USS Johnston..🧵1/6
🧵 2/6
The USS Johnston was a Fletcher class destroyer. She was commissioned in Seattle on October 27 1943. She weighed about 2,100 tons and carried five inch guns and torpedoes. She was built to screen larger ships and hunt submarines, not to fight battleships.
Her captain was Lieutenant Commander Ernest E. Evans. He had been born in Pawnee, Oklahoma in 1908, a son of the Creek and Cherokee nations, raised about as far from the open ocean as anyone in America. He had wanted to be a Marine officer. A knee injury ended that hope, so he joined the Navy instead. He graduated from the Naval Academy in 1931. He became one of the few Native American officers to command a United States Navy destroyer.
On the day the Johnston was commissioned, Evans stood on the deck and spoke to his new crew. He said words they would all remember.
"This is going to be a fighting ship. I intend to go in harm's way, and anyone who doesn't want to go along had better get off right now."
One year later he would keep that promise.

On the morning of October 25 1944, the Johnston was one of a small group of American ships called Taffy 3. The group had six small escort carriers, three destroyers, and four destroyer escorts. Their job was to protect the troops General Douglas MacArthur was landing in the Philippines. They expected an easy day.
Then the most powerful surface fleet the Japanese had left appeared on the horizon.
Four battleships. Six heavy cruisers. Two light cruisers. Eleven destroyers. At the center was the Yamato, the largest battleship ever built, carrying 18 inch guns that could throw a shell the weight of a small car over 25 miles.
Taffy 3 had nothing that could penetrate their armor. The escort carriers could not outrun them. There was nothing between this fleet and thousands of American soldiers and sailors in Leyte Gulf except a handful of lightly armed ships.
Commander Evans did not wait for orders. He turned the Johnston toward the Japanese fleet and ordered flank speed. For those first terrible minutes the Johnston was the ship leading the charge into the most powerful warships in the Pacific.
The Johnston laid a smokescreen to hide the carriers. Then she charged.

Prince Andrew is the colonel-in-chief of the Fusiliers, a regiment that traces its roots to 1749 when Gen. Edward Cornwallis, the Governor of Nova Scotia. Edward Cornwallis scalped my Mi’kmaw and Acadian family. Cornwallis opened the first Freemason Lodge 54 in Digby NS. Members included Winslow, Lord Moncton, Wolfe and Jeffrey Amherst who did the deportation from Acadia to Standing Rock. He brought the black box with him. They used the seven deadly sins as a war strategy spreading small pox and raping and using satanic elements to psychologically, spiritually and physically destroy people. Cannibalism part of that. As an Acadian we endured all of it.

@APTNNews To this very day the scalping laws of Edward Cornwallis are not recinded. aptnnews.ca/national-news/…
The cannibalism goes back a long way. They used wolf pelts on the head and sat around fire pits to burn people they ate. It was done outside forts in Acadia to intimidate the French. The English were the anti francophone people and allied with Mohawk in New England. The rituals gave rise to the stories of Loup-garou which means werewolf. They used psychological warfare a lot. It was the reason for war paint and head dress. I am Indigenous so I know these issues from both sides being Métis. It was intimidation not unlike Vlad the Impaler.
