1/ I have an interesting side-dig that ties in billionaires, silver, a massive underground city, football, the Bush family, & possibly, the JFK a$$a$$inations

Meet: The Hunt family

Starting with Lamar: founder of the AFL, tied to Silver prospecting, & creator of Subtropolis
2/ I know them b/c I once met a direct family member who told me stories that at the time sounded insane: abuse, craziness, & then said the family was tied to the death of JFK

I wrote them off as a nut

Of course you’re getting this from me, but I got it from a 1st Hand Source
3/ This was 20+ years ago, but something triggered this in my mind over a family convo in Christmas & I decided to look into that family

& I wish I’d taken the person more seriously back then

This 👇 is Lamar’s father who made his fortune via oil

& even his wiki mentions JFK
4/ Remember, this person told me themself that the family was involved in JFK

I hadn’t thought of this in 20+ years until I just looked it up

Naturally I feel like an asshol now

I wish I’d listened to them & asked a lot more questions:
5/ Being billionaire oil men in Texas, naturally they’re linked to Bush Sr

If you type in the HL & Bush’s names, every damn thing that comes up is JFK

Again, I heard about this in the 90s, when public internet 1.0 was in its infancy

& *I heard it from a Hunt family member*
6/ HL’s son Lamar was the founder of the AFL, which later joined with the NFL to become the NFL as we know it now

Lamar was inducted into the HoF in 1972

The family still owns the KC Chiefs

Back then, I was invited to sit in the owner’s box by the person (I declined)
7/ Sorry I fell asleep. Tweeting in bed after much family Christmas merriment

Where was I?

The Hunts & the Bush family

Texas & Midwest-based millionaire oilmen

Likely you’ve seen the JB Hunt trucks on the highway. That’s them

I always think “Well X’s fam is doing well.”
8/ Let’s move to Subtropolis

It was built in an area central to the US, right next to an amusement park owned by the Hunts

It’s used for storage, but there’s another use that Wikipedia doesn’t mention:

It appears to be a “switching hub” for trucks
9/ It’s a foreign trade zone (how?)

Rail services, connected/close to all the major highways

Close to intermodal facilities

Trucking is a major part of human trafficking

Did I mention Texas has 300,000 human trafficking victims? 79,000 of which are minors
10/ Say, weren’t we just talking about Texas?

As the last image below (from Hunt’s website about Subtropolis says) its all about

“Location, location, location.”

All done waaaaaaay underground, away from prying eyes
11/ And here’s a link to my screencaps of a paywaII-hidden in-depth Dig on the Hunt family

I’m sure it’s sanitized while appearing to be a probing bit of investigative journalism

I’ll read it in a bit... just grabbed it while I could

If you want to know how RealPolitik government works (& have a laugh instead of crying)

two movies nail it:

In The Loop
The Death of Stalin

Both by the same director, shockingly

This oughta sell most of you on it 😂

Malcolm Tucker is the definition of D33p State

Unelected behind the scenes, bullying, blackmaiIing, abusing everyone including the poIitician he’s “serving”
When the politician aka his “boss” decides he’s going to take a moral stand on something, this is what Malcolm says:

“I will marshall all the media forces of darkness to hound you to an assisted suicide.”

Hilarious when I first saw it... Sound like a joke now?

Watching “They Live” for the 1st time

Then “The Thing”

Catching up on some John Carpenter
So far the economy of language is exquisite
I’m a writer

“They Live” was based on a short story

Makes me want to revisit that form

I want to write anonymously

I just haven’t yet

Just had a vivid nightmare

Can’t describe it all

A bridge had collapsed; a bus crashed thru it. There was chaos & a party among the chaos

Then a war began. Children running away from captors by the thousands
I joined many in charging in across a highway & river to join a massive battle. We helped children thru barbed wires onto slide-like escapes

I kept having to retreat to different battles, taking multiple blows to the head & body,
then back into the fray
Then I had to jump down a cliff from thru barbed wire & iron girders until I richocheted into a metal bar & was knocked unconscious & sank under water for 20 minutes

The current drew me back up & over

I woke up gasping for air

1/ Seeing the awesomeness that are @GlennYoungkin & @WinsomeSears

I’ve stepped back & taken a 40k-foot look at how the journey looks so far,

& a picture has emerged

We had specific expectations of 17 (especially timing) - often.

That’s on us - & it’s a bad habit.

Peep this:
2/ If Trump had been put in publicly for Round 2

Nothing would’ve changed

“But that’s good!”

Short-term, yes. I’ve written threads on strategic thinking here before.

For that, you’re thinking decades or even a century down the line

Most people don’t even plan a year out.
3/ What do Youngkin & Sears have to do with this?

Everything.

As I & others have said,

this stage was about waking the the most unmovable - yet still saveable - citizens

(Not the 4-6%)

We’ve seen the few remaining percentage points of Liberals come around to important points

Whoa

Kubrick has another layer hidden in The Shining that I never knew

4:25 evidence with the magazine - & knowing the depth to which Kubrick went - is pretty crazy all on its own

Danny & The Bear

For anyone who wants another incredible analysis of Kubrick spilling the beans on [their activities]

you MUST read this thread by @SeekerOTL (who also might love the above video)

Disclaimer, I’m only halfway through it so maybe it goes off the rails lol
