Charges have been filed against the SPLC Poverty Palace.
The SPLC is a prominent member of Democracy Inc. That is the poking of the hornets nest that I have been waiting for.
Hopefully this is just a start.

Good times.
Everyone and every group that works with Norm Eisen should be under investigation.
@AcceptableToad @KeithWoodsYT Oh, Academic Agent is still around + switched from @NotCarKing to @AcademicAgent_X?
I remember when Potholer54, I, and others repeatedly debunked his climate change denialism.

@AcceptableToad @KeithWoodsYT @NotCarKing @AcademicAgent_X It's telling that Academic Agent tells the same fabrication Potholer54 debunked years ago.
Denialists like him never honestly learn.

Today, @DAGToddBlanche & @FBIDirectorKash announced an 11-count indictment against the SPLC.
While SPLC raises money by claiming to oppose white supremacy, the indictment accuses the SPLC of paying the Ku Klux Klan😲

Today, @DAGToddBlanche & @FBIDirectorKash announced an 11-count indictment against the SPLC.
While SPLC raises money by claiming to oppose white supremacy, the indictment accuses the SPLC of paying the Ku Klux Klan😲
🧵1/12dailysignal.com/2026/04/21/spl…
The indictment includes six counts of wire fraud, because the SPLC claimed that it aims to "dismantle white supremacy" but it actually funded a broad swath of white nationalist groups.

🧵2/12
Beginning in the 1980s—the decade when SPLC's offices got firebombed—the SPLC cultivated a network of informants with violent extremist groups. It maintained those informants as recently as 2023, according to the indictment. SPLC funneled more than $3 million to them.

Introduction to Gazology
@MattiFriedman has identified a new genre of books that is refashioning the ruins of Gaza into a metaphor of Jewish evil.
These are the books that have transformed the discourse in the last two years.

Trump spoke to Bloomberg, CBS, Axios and the New York Post in one morning. He claimed Iran agreed to an "unlimited" nuclear suspension, to hand over its enriched uranium, and to a weekend deal.

LEARN YOUR POWER!!! There is no series out there that will teach YOU🫵 how to navigate American Politics....
This is how change is made.... Education....
Here is ours... Lets see yours!!
Show your organizations education!!
Over the next several months, Project Milk Carton — the same 501(c)(3) that runs the missing children pages, the veteran outreach line, and the public investigations you’ve been reading — will publish what amounts to a citizen’s field manual for how American money and American narrative actually work in 2026.
We are not breaking a single scandal. We are mapping a system.
If you have ever watched a story break, felt a flash of outrage, watched it die in a news cycle, and wondered why nothing ever changes — this series is the answer to that question.
It is also, eventually, the answer to what to do about it.

The sentence that changed everything
On July 2, 1954, a senator from Texas named Lyndon Baines Johnson stood on the floor of the United States Senate and offered a floor amendment to the Internal Revenue Code.
The amendment was one sentence. It added six words to the tax-exemption provision that governed charitable organizations.
The six words: “and which does not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distributing of statements), any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office.”

Every module after this one assumes you know the difference between a 501(c)(3) and a 501(c)(4). Every case study assumes you know what a Donor-Advised Fund is and why it matters. Every financial-moves explainer assumes you know why an operator would pair an LLC with a PAC with a nonprofit.
This article is the decoder ring. Save it. Print it. Keep it next to your screen. You will come back to it every time you read a 990, every time you see a new entity in one of our case studies, and every time a news story mentions “dark money” without explaining what that actually means.
Nine entity types. One reference card. Here is what each one is, what it can and cannot do, what it reports to the public, and why operators stack them together.

When a former US Treasury Sec uses the phrase “break the glass”, it’s worth asking why. Sure, good sound bites get attention, but that’s unlikely to be the motive here, this particular individual gets plenty of that anyway.
So, I dug a bit deeper. /1

Last week, Henry Paulson gave an interview to Bloomberg in which he urged the US Treasury to prepare “an emergency break-the-glass plan which is targeted and short-term, on the shelf, so it’s ready to go when we hit the wall”. /2

It’s notable that Paulson uses the word “when”, not “if”.

WHY YOU FEEL SLEEPY AFTER EJACULATION
M heavy, relaxed, almost “knocked out” feeling after ejaculation is real, and it is not just in your head.
There is something happening in your body that many people don’t understand
Let me explain

🔑 What happens in your body
During sex, your body is in a high-alert state. Your heart rate rises, blood pressure goes up, and your brain is very active.
After ejaculation, everything drops suddenly, your body moves into a calm, rest mode. That shift alone can make you feel sleepy.

After ejaculation, everything drops suddenly, your body moves into a calm, rest mode. That shift alone can make you feel sleepy.
🔑 Hormone release
After ejaculation, your body releases certain chemicals that promote relaxation and sleep. One of them is Prolactin. It is strongly linked to sexual satisfaction and can make you feel drowsy.
Another one is Oxytocin. It creates a sense of calm, comfort, and emotional closeness. This also helps your body relax deeply.
Your brain also releases Serotonin and endorphins, which improve mood and reduce stress, but can also make you feel sleepy.

Bitcoin Isn’t Just a Hedge Against the System. It’s How the System Survives Itself.
The US government's quiet stablecoin strategy is genius.
Stablecoins buy Treasuries. Treasuries fund deficits. Deficits keep the machine running.
But there's a hole in the theory.
To create stablecoins, you need dollars or Treasuries that already exist.
You're not creating new money. You're recycling it.
So how do you actually expand the asset side of the ledger?
Enter Bitcoin. 🧵

In a debt-based system, every liability needs an offsetting asset.
Dollars are liabilities of the Fed.
Treasuries are liabilities of the US govt.
The system only stays solvent if the asset side keeps growing.
But what if you could create assets that aren't tied to any existing liability?
What if you could conjure them from price appreciation alone?

$1B flows into Bitcoin.
Market cap goes up $10 B.
That $10 B didn't come from anywhere. No Treasury was issued. No dollar was printed.
It was created purely by reflexive price appreciation.
Now scale that.
Bitcoin goes from $1T to $100T market cap on $10T of actual inflows.
You just conjured $90T of net new assets into existence.
