A Warning from Scripture and Personal Experience 🧵
Friends, as a Christian who once deeply supported the “Great Awakening” and Q-adjacent ideas, I need to share a sober warning from Scripture and personal experience.

2/ Over ten years ago, in prayer, I believed the Lord showed me Donald Trump would win and expose evil. I poured countless hours into promoting him — often neglecting my family — convinced this was God’s plan.
3/ I saw Q drops mixed with Bible verses as confirmation. The “hidden knowledge,” the “plan,” the awakened versus the sleeping… it felt like spiritual warfare unfolding in real time.
1/ When trans activists aren't harassing lesbians, one of their preferred tactics is to silence gay men
One such gay man, Associate Professor Dr. Foran of Keble College, Oxford has just had to cancel a lecture series because some people go to university to shout and not to learn

2/ Associate Professor Foran is one of our foremost legal minds on the subject of sex and gender as it relates to equality law. He has a nationally significant mind and his work has been referenced in the UK Supreme Court by the Law Lords.
3/ He does genuine public good by contributing to legal debates on sex/gender, moreover, you might take the view that him offering free public lectures on the subject in addition to the hours he puts in to public debates on this is an overall good thing
Since 2024, I’ve spent $200k learning how business, marketing & sales work.
In 2 years, I scaled my media agency to $2 million in revenue, worked with billionaire founders & launched my 3rd company 2 weeks ago.

1/ Invest more in operations than in sales
You can learn sales with experience. But operations require systems & playbooks which are veins of a business.
Cashflow is a business’s blood but without veins, it will bleed out.
You’ll realise this when it’s too late.
Act now.

2/ It's better to hire for character than experience
It sounds absurd but most experienced people don’t have the best character.
The success blinds them & they’ll leave you in a flick of a second.
To have loyalty, train a newbie. They’ll forever be grateful.

If you visit someone’s home and notice dust on their chandelier, don’t ever go back. Not because their house is dirty, but because your heart is.
They open their door to you. They call for you. They welcomed you with smiles. And you’re inspecting their furniture.
Please don’t be the guest who walks into someone’s home looking for what’s wrong instead of what’s beautiful. We’re in a generation that notices the one dirty dish but ignores the home-cooked meal, that sees the unmade bed but misses the open heart.

Landmark genetic study published in the journal Cell analyzed ancient DNA to map the genomic history of the Southern Levant. Findings offer powerful scientific evidence of Jewish indigeneity. cell.com/action/showPdf…
The study, "The Genomic History of the Bronze Age Southern Levant," analyzed genome-wide DNA from 73 ancient individuals across 5 archaeological sites, spanning the Bronze and Iron Ages (ca. 2500–1000 BCE). These people shared what we call "Canaanite" material culture.
Ancient DNA reveals 1. Core Ancestry: Ancient Canaanites were a genetic mix of local Stone Age (Neolithic) populations and migrants from the northeast (Zagros Mountains/Caucasus). 2. Genetic Homogeneity: "Canaanites" across different sites were highly genetically similar.
1/1 The idea of using Iran’s restricted funds in Qatar, Oman, and Iraq for internet access to Iranians sounds appealing. But there’s a fundamental legal problem most people miss: those funds aren’t really under U.S. control to begin with.
@USTreasury blocking means assets in the U.S. or held by U.S. persons are frozen. The accounts in Qatar and Iraq are restricted, not formally blocked. The U.S. can’t just redirect them. Its leverage is secondary sanctions, not possession and that’s a huge difference.

2/2 So what would actually have to happen to redirect those funds?
Step one: the U.S. would need to recognize an Iranian exile government as the legitimate Government of Iran, stripping the Islamic Republic of its legal claim to those assets. That’ll take a presidential determination.
Step two: @USTreasury and @StateDept would need to redefine “Government of Iran” and adapt a similar approach to the Syria case after Assad fell. This is not that straightforward.

3/3 Step three: secondary sanctions would need to be muted or waived, maybe with a definition of the Government of Iran (recognizing the exile government would potentially do that). Gulf banks won’t touch these transfers without protection. Iran’s secondary sanctions regime is far more expansive than Syria’s Caesar Act.
Step four, and this is the one people always forget: Qatar, Oman, Iraq, and the banks holding these accounts would have to voluntarily cooperate. They have their own relationships with the regime in Iran. No U.S. law compels them to transfer sovereign funds to an exile body with no territory. Remember post JCPOA, Obama admin had to throw cash on pallets because no bank would move Iranian funds even if asked by the US government.

Why do people make easily testable claims of fact with such confidence when you can easily find out that they're WRONG?
Younger Maine Dems voted for Platner.
Older Maine Dems preferred Mills.
[Links below]
Maine also has had demographic drift which folks don't acknowledge. A considerable factor in Platner's success is that people who moved to the state only recently lean Democratic.
In 2024, 1 in 40 Mainers was a person who moved to the state that year alone. From 1/1/2020 to 8/1/2025, about 126,400 people moved to Maine according to the Portland Press Herald. Let's round up to 140,000 by 5/1/2026. That's out of 1.4 million.
So 1 in 10 Mainers is somebody who only moved to the State in the last 6 years. 39% were from other New England States - especially Massachusetts (19%) and New Hampshire (12%). Other blue states like California (5%) and New York (6%) were sources too.
Young professionals, remote workers, and families in their 30s and 40s are the primary demographics driving the recent wave of migration to Maine
Folks who move to Maine tend to do so because it costs less and moved to the urban areas in the south of the state. They're younger and bluer and Platner's generational and cultural contemporaries.
Otherwise, of the various older Mainers (60+, a cohort who generally went for Mills) who did break for Platner - they did say that they thought Platner's youth was a plus. It was mainly "she's too old to hold public office" thing, though a desire for "fresh blood" was a factor too. Old timer frustration with the Democratic Party as a whole wasn't really the driving force for Platner among old folks - it was Janet Mills in particular being very old (older than Collins!) and older voters thinking a younger candidate would be more electable.

🚨 Leonid Schneider’s Documented Pattern of Academic Fraud & Harassment
1. Fraudulent PhD Thesis (2008)
After receiving formal faculty approval, Schneider inserted an obscene middle-finger cartoon (professor flipping off a student) into his doctoral thesis — falsely labeled as a scientific figure — and had it permanently archived in the official Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf library database. This was later confirmed in writing by Dean Prof. Martin Heil (Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences) in a direct email to ScienceGuardians.
⚠️ Such deliberate post-approval alteration of an officially approved doctoral document may constitute document forgery under § 267 StGB (Urkundenfälschung), punishable by up to 5 years imprisonment or a fine (in serious cases up to 10 years). It may also provide grounds for revocation of the doctoral degree.
2. Ongoing Sadistic Harassment
Years of vicious, targeted ad-hominem attacks and defamation against various members of the academic community including senior U.S. scientists and journal editors.
⚠️ Language and accusations of this nature and intensity strongly support criminal liability under German law (Erlensee, 63526, Frankfurt Rhine-Main area):
• §185 StGB (Insult) – up to 1 year imprisonment or fine (up to 2 years if public)
• §187 StGB (Intentional Defamation / Verleumdung) – up to 2 years imprisonment or fine
• §238 StGB (Cyberstalking) – up to 3 years imprisonment
• Potential civil claims under BGB (§823, §1004, §253) for damages and injunctive relief (thousands to tens of thousands of euros)
A clear, multi-year pattern of misconduct with serious criminal and civil implications.

This is why a housing values in counties with "good schools" keep going up. They go up even further if your "good school" is primarily grouped with other "good schools" in athletics.
Because it's illegal at the federal and state level to punish black kids for any reason.

Karmelo wasn't there to compete because he was suspended. He was there to either steal or otherwise cause trouble. It's 100% likely that most of the other kids knew he was a troublemaker. The athletics community isn't that big. You see the same kids over and over for years.
We shouldn't have to live like this.
