Because people are hitting me up about this left and right. Here is how it works:

1. Technicians buy three of the item, one gets taken all the way down, one stays in the box, the third one they fuck with.

2. On the device taken all the way down, the techs look at the parts.
3. Identify a part that can be slightly enlarged without anyone noticing.

4. 3D print that exact part of the device but just slightly larger to create a gap in the fuel cell, etc.

5. That gap is the room you get the play in. Insert listening devices, trackers, or demo.
6. Now you need to get it into the bad guy's hands. This is done using corporate front companies & unwitting weak links in the bad guy's supply chain.

7. Even underground groups get lazy & choose the path of least resistance. Not uncommon for them to buy in bulk from one place.

So I have in my possession a rather humorous email from the Delta Force chain of command which is trying to fight the tide of culture and technology to put the kibosh on VUMs (Veteran Unit Members, in their words) from going on podcasts or talking about historical missions.
The email claims that VUMs have appeared in digital and traditional media to share vignettes of their military service, which puts Delta at risk, although the email fails to provide any examples, evidence, or proof of this. The email harps on unenforceable NDAs of course.
I've never seen a vet prosecuted for breaking an NDA, and if Delta is serious about this they need to make their operators sign the same type of paperwork that CIA officers sign. Shit or get off the pot fellas. While it is within their purview to reminds VUMs of classification

The Havana Syndrome story continues to fascinate me and I've come to 1 of 2 conclusions

1. The CIA is absolutely terrifying their employees into silence about what is happening
or
2. There are groups of former CIA personnel making up stories and selectively leaking to the press
I do think that on some level there is a real phenomena taking place, and the tech is nothing exotic. It's just a microwave weapon, which is mainstream science and openly in use by LE agencies. But the closer you get to Havana, the farther away from it you are,
as stories evaporate, witnesses pull a fade, and evidence is not forthcoming. So either the agency is still bullying and scaring current and former members about their health condition or there is some exaggeration taking place.

I thrive on the positive feedback we receive from the podcast. Check out the latest:

USG Propagandists,
More war crime story hour and whitewashing of the Ukrainian Nazi army of late I see! Again, why not have on someone who isn’t going to pal around and laugh about all the US
war crimes you two find so funny and/or excusable because USA does it? Or is each and everyone who calls you out a Putin propagandist and Kremlin agent? Fact is, you don’t even work for the American people and never did. You murdered people across the other side of the planet in
their own country for Pizza Hut, Wakenhut, Booze Allen Hamilton and all the other war profiteers who benefited so well from your dirty work. Until propagandists like you come clean and change your genocidal views, you’ll have to consider people like me needling you and exposing

I feel like there is a collective amnesia about Ukraine, a glossing over how poorly they performed in '14, how wrecked their military was, and how hesitant America was to support them. For instance, there was a huge food fight behind the scenes before we provided Javelins.
Fast forward to today, and we're told that Ukraine is fielding UDT teams in the Baltic Sea blowing pipelines, they're running sabotage ops behind enemy lines, drone swarm attacks in Moscow, sweeping disinformation ops, precision targeting, running networks of agents, etc
Sure, these are smart determined people fighting for their survival and I respect that. But some of these capabilities took the US decades and billions of dollars to develop. Sure our defense industry is bloated and Ukraine's is streamlined for war but that doesn't fully explain

Over the years I've worked a lot of military sexual assault and domestic violence stories, most of them involving Army SOF/Infantry officers. The commonalities between these cases, and specifically the traits of the abusers is pretty stunning in my opinion. My rant 🧵 below:
1. Abused spouses write their husband's grad papers, war college papers, etc. Their husband is as intellectually stunted as he is emotionally undeveloped and has no interest in developing these skills. These officers are dumber than a box of rocks & need to cheat on their papers.
2. Expectations of portraying the perfect Christian nuclear family in public & military events. Wives are supposed to stay at home and rear children and attend unit functions. The Army even has classes to train them to be perfect little field grade wives like it is 1955.
