Signal is the gold standard but with all the quality problems these days good ole FaceTime Audio or Skype tends to be the go to for long distance calls. If you are using an electronic device to plan a crime or do bad things. Can't help you. cnet.com/news/signal-vs…
Wickr is the creepy one with developer's stories about direct links to Russia, the UAE and Erik Prince but for some ungodly reason used by our military and for comms by small SOF groups. WhatsApp/Facebook is the KSA/UAE/Israeli's favorite hacking target. vice.com/en/article/paq…
One must ask in a world of back doors and 100% surveillance why do we think there are secrets? Imagine an app that turned your caveman texts into iambic pentameter? We should focus on quality of communications not hiding communications. Oh wait that capitol insurrection thing.
Humans respond to crafted, paced speech with structure. They can be lifted up, excited, made to feel important and be given a purpose. I just thought I would push back against the darkness and encourage people to communicate openly and with gusto. artofmanliness.com/articles/the-3…
Back in 2007 those damn kids were using their cel phones to text each other. What's up with that? pewresearch.org/internet/2007/…
Now with lockdowns we spend extraordinary amounts online. Divisive politics have fired up debates online. We are online "more", but no one has taught people how to communicate "better" online. broadbandsearch.net/blog/average-d…

Dave Troy is running some meaty threads about where all the fuckerists came from, what part of the con they run and why they just can't quit the grift.
This thread is dead on. It is missing much of the ground intel but the Gang That Couldn't Grift Straight was running out of time and had to cash some checks. I don't think the Biden Administration will ever get their head around the RICO presidency.
RICO allow the prosecution of syndicate heads to be tried for the crimes they ordered others to do or assisted them in doing. There are proxies and cutout galore in the #45Mob. From Abu Dhabi to Kiev to DC the goal was to hold on to power and get rich. themarshallproject.org/2016/04/27/tru…

The fuckery continues as dark money creates fake astroturf events for assholes to deliver sound bites....and the media keeps gobbling it up. Again. Some days I don’t know who is stupider or more dishonest. axios.com/lewandowski-gr…
The lack of critical analysis by the media is impressive:

“One estimate from a Wyoming Highway Patrol officer guessed the crowd at nearly 800 people. Numerous vehicles with Colorado plates were seen parked along the streets near the Capitol.”oilcity.news/galleries/2021…
“both Lewandowski and Trump "share a love for the attention-getting stunt.”

So why not cover this organizes and paid stunt as exactly that?

“It was like he was created to be recruited,” said Shvets. “Everybody has weaknesses. But with Trump, it wasn’t just weakness. Everything was excessive. His vanity—excessive. Narcissism—excessive. Greed—excessive. Ignorance—excessive.”
“There was another key aspect to Trump’s trip to Moscow that has been widely overlooked by the press: As soon as he returned to New York, Donald Trump decided to make a highly improbable, quixotic, and, as it turned out, short-lived run for the presidency in the 1988 primaries”

Belgian snapper Regine Mahaux took these pics in April of 2010. The same month that the brokeass TV reality host got his quickie refund from the government. He was the top Chapter 11 filer in America in the last 30 years. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
"he was far more successful playing a business mogul than being one in real life."
"a president who routinely promotes his businesses in an official capacity while they haul in hundreds of millions of dollars from mostly unknown sources is a clear case of corruption" citizensforethics.org/reports-invest…

They need to tell more cool guy stories. Other than that, the FOIA archives is the most interesting part of the CIA
