Just more evidence that the ADL functions as a spy agency for foreign interests. In this case they subverted the JBS in order to set back the grassroots American anticommunist movement.

JBS was named in honor of John Birch, a US intel officer killed by Chinese communists in '45.
In 1954, a NYC fireman went to the @FBI with his concerns that the ADL was a "communist outfit".

Of course it's well known that the ADL sided with the DOJ instead of the Jewish Rosenbergs in the atomic espionage case.

But could there be anything to the ADL's commie connections? Image
Researcher Laird Wilcox in his book "The Watchdogs" recounts how an @FBI memo concluded ADL had falsely cited a nonexistent FBI memo in order to minimize the communist threat.

ADL's agenda appears to have been to exaggerate right wing threats while minimizing the commie threat. ImageImage

1/ In his 2013 book "Fight", gigapastor Craig Groeschel revealed himself a bit.

Have you had a look at this book, @sheilagregoire?

Number of times Groeschel refers to women as "girls" or "chicks": 12

A thread with quotes from the book
2/ "Think about it this way. There are two kinds of movies: chick flicks and, well, everything else. Do chick flicks inspire men? Do they make them want to be stronger, braver, better men?"

~Craig Groeschel, "Fight", 2013
3/ "Ladies, if you’re reading this book, you probably should put it down. It’s not for you.

Put it down. Please. 𝑁𝑜𝑤.

I’m serious."

I have three monitors on my desk. The left one shows the order book. The middle one shows Truth Social. The right one shows the investigation queue.

On April 21st, the left screen moved first.

I am a Senior Surveillance Analyst at a commodities exchange. I have held this position for nineteen years. My job is to monitor trading activity for suspicious patterns and generate compliance reports. I am employee of the quarter. I have a mug.

At 19:54 GMT on April 21st, someone placed 4,260 sell orders on Brent crude futures. They did this during post-settlement. The window after the market closes when daily volume is typically in the dozens. Sometimes single digits. Sometimes I watch the screen and nothing happens for forty minutes and I think about whether my daughter is happy.

On April 21st, someone placed $430 million in directional bets in 120 seconds during that window. One hundred and twenty seconds. I timed it on my watch because the system clock rounds to the nearest minute and I have found, in nineteen years, that precision matters to no one but me.

At 20:10 GMT, the President posted on Truth Social that he was extending the Iran ceasefire.

Brent dropped from $100.91 to $96.83.

I flagged the trade. I flag a lot of trades. I want to tell you what happens to my flags.

My flags go into a system called TRACE. Trade Review and Compliance Evaluation. I did not name it. The system generates a report. The report goes to a committee. The committee has a name I am not allowed to share but I can tell you it meets quarterly and the conference room has a credenza with bottled water that is sparkling because someone once put still water in the room and a managing director sent an email about it that was longer than most of my surveillance reports.

The committee reviews my flags. The committee has reviewed all of my flags. Here is the complete record of actions taken on my flags in 2026:

Reviewed.

That's it. "Reviewed" is a status. In compliance, a status is the absence of an action that has been given a name so it looks like one.

Let me show you my flags.

March 9th. Someone bet millions on oil falling at 18:29 GMT. Forty-seven minutes later, a CBS reporter posted that the President said the Iran war was "very complete, pretty much." Oil dropped 25%. Forty-seven minutes. I flagged it.

March 23rd. Someone sold 5,100 lots of Brent and WTI crude futures between 10:49 and 10:50 GMT. Fourteen minutes later, the President posted on Truth Social about a "COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION" to hostilities. Oil dropped 11%. Over 13,000 contracts traded in sixty seconds after the post. Fourteen minutes. I flagged it.

April 7th. Someone established a $950 million short position in oil futures at 19:45 GMT. Three hours later, the President declared a two-week ceasefire. Nine hundred and fifty million dollars. I flagged it.

April 17th. Someone placed $760 million in bearish bets twenty minutes before Iran's foreign minister confirmed the Strait of Hormuz would reopen. Seven hundred and sixty million. I flagged it.

April 21st. The $430 million. Fifteen minutes. I flagged it.

That is $2.1 billion in directional oil bets in April alone. Every one of them landed on the correct side of a presidential announcement. Every one of them was placed in a window so narrow you could measure it in bathroom breaks. I flagged every single one.

The CFTC chair told a Congressional committee that his organization has "zero tolerance" for fraud and insider trading. I wrote that quote on a Post-it note and stuck it to my right monitor. The one that shows the investigation queue. The investigation queue has not moved since March.

Zero tolerance. Zero staff. Zero budget. Zero prosecutions under the STOCK Act since it was signed in 2012.

Fourteen years. The law has existed for fourteen years and has been enforced zero times. In compliance, we call that a compliance rate of one hundred percent. No cases filed means no cases lost. You cannot fail an audit you never conduct. We call that excellence.

Last month the White House sent an internal email to staff. I was not on the distribution list but I have read reporting on it and I need you to sit with what I am about to say. The email instructed White House staff not to use insider information to place bets on prediction markets.

The White House had to send a memo telling its own employees not to insider-trade.

I want you to read that sentence again. Not because the instruction was unclear. Because the instruction was necessary. Because someone in the building looked at the same pattern I have been flagging for months on my three monitors and decided the appropriate response was an email.

The President's son sits on the advisory board of Kalshi. He is an investor in Polymarket. Both are prediction markets. Both saw accounts created days before U.S. military action.

One account. I cannot stop thinking about this account. It was called "Burdensome-Mix." It was created in December. On January 2nd, it placed $32,500 on Venezuela's president being removed from power. On January 3rd, Maduro was seized by U.S. special forces. Burdensome-Mix collected $436,000. Then it changed its username. Then it disappeared.

One account is a coincidence. But there were six.

Six accounts were created on Polymarket in February. All bet on U.S. strikes on Iran by the 28th. When the President confirmed the strikes, the six accounts collected $1.2 million between them. Five of the six never placed another bet. The sixth went on to correctly predict the ceasefire date and made another $163,000.

My surveillance system logged all of this. My system logs everything. My system does not have opinions and neither do I. I generate reports. The reports go to committees. The committees meet quarterly. Between meetings, the windows get shorter and the bets get larger.

March 9th: 47 minutes. March 23rd: 14 minutes. April 17th: 20 minutes. April 21st: 15 minutes.

The window is compressing. In March, you had time to make coffee between the trade and the announcement. By April, you had time to send a text. By summer, at this rate, the trade and the announcement will be the same event.

The spokesman said any implication that administration officials are engaged in insider trading is "baseless and irresponsible reporting."

Then the White House sent the email again.

I have been in compliance for nineteen years. I have seen insider trading run out of strip mall offices by men who could not spell "derivative." I have seen pump-and-dump schemes coordinated over WhatsApp by people who used their real names. I have seen a man try to manipulate soybean futures from a Panera Bread.

I have never seen $2.1 billion in perfectly timed trades across five presidential announcements in a single month go uninvestigated.

But I have also never seen a compliance system work this beautifully. Every trade flagged. Every report filed. Every committee briefed. Every quarterly meeting attended. Bottled water: sparkling. Minutes: distributed.

Zero prosecutions.

As long as the flags go up and the cases don't, my performance review says I am meeting expectations.

I am meeting expectations. The system is meeting expectations. The $2.1 billion is meeting expectations. The fourteen-year-old law with zero prosecutions is meeting expectations.

The left screen moves. The middle screen moves. The right screen stays perfectly, immaculately still.

In my field, we call this price discovery.
I cleared the right screen. Pulled the case files.

Every trade. Every Congressional letter. Every prediction market account that appeared, collected, and vanished.

The chairman who promised the full force of the law one day before someone placed three-quarters of a billion dollars on an announcement that hadn't been made.

I wrote it all down: gothburz.substack.com/p/i-flagged-ev…Image

BREAKING: The California Supreme Court just unanimously ruled that the California Coastal Commission unlawfully overrode a county-approved building permit — one of the most significant checks on the Commission's power in the 40 years since Nollan v. CCC. Image

Buenos días. Hilo del día 1.521 de la guerra entre Rusia y Ucrania. Kiev resiste. Y que los rusos se vayan despidiendo del acceso libre a internet. Putin explicó las restricciones de internet en Rusia como una "lucha contra el terrorismo" y eso significa que quieren cortarlo todo
En la lucha por el enorme caudal de información que hay en internet entre el FSB y los políticos, las palabras de Putin decantan la balanza hacia los servicios de seguridad. Control total y absoluto aprovechando la guerra... goloso regalo... que alguno seguro que quiere copiar. Image
«Es muy típico de Putin: ver el problema no en el evento en sí, sino en cómo se explica a la gente. De sus palabras se desprende que los servicios especiales lo están haciendo todo bien, y seguirán haciéndolo a su discreción tanto tiempo como sea necesario». Politóloga Stanovaya

🚨 Your hospital bill is not the amount you legally owe.

Most people pay it anyway because nobody told them the listed price and the actual amount owed are four completely different numbers.

Here is how AI just turned a $1,200 bill into $340:
Most people receive a bill, feel overwhelmed, and pay it.

What they do not know: the number on that bill is not necessarily what you owe. The listed price, the insurance negotiated rate, the amount billed to you, and the amount legally owed are four completely different numbers.

Hospitals know most patients never check.
The summary bill they mail you lists totals. Not individual charges.
Call the billing department and say exactly this:

"I am requesting a fully itemized statement showing every individual charge, procedure code, and service date for my visit."

Hospitals are legally required to provide one. Most patients never ask.

My clients travel 100–200 days a year and never miss a workout.

One resistance band.

That's the secret.

Here are the 10 exercises I give every client to hit every muscle group on the road:

= Thread =
1. Bent Over Rows

Muscles targeted:

⚬ Rhomboids
⚬ Lats
⚬ Traps

Tips:

✅ Step on the band and hinge forward at the hips
✅ Pull back through your elbows (not your hands)
✅ Squeeze shoulder blades together at the top
✅ Control the return (don't let the band snap back)
2. Band RDLs

Muscles targeted:

⚬ Hamstrings
⚬ Spinal Erectors
⚬ Glutes

Tips:

✅ Stand on the band, hold hip height

My doctor put me on a statin after my heart attack at 52.

I trusted him. I took the pill. I never asked a question.

Then I found this study. 60 clinical trials. 323,950 people. Every cholesterol lowering drug ever made. Statins. PCSK9 inhibitors. Ezetimibe.

They measured how much each drug lowered LDL cholesterol. Then they measured whether people lived or died.

The line is flat.

It did not matter if they lowered LDL by 10% or by 70%. The death rate did not change. In some trials people died more.

323,950 people. Near zero benefit. Published in the Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology. 2023.

Nobody showed me this chart. Not my cardiologist. Not my pharmacist. Not the drug rep who visited my doctors office every month.

I had to find it myself. After the heart attack.Image
So if cholesterol is not the main driver, what is?

The Womens Health Study followed 27,939 women for 21 years. Published in JAMA Cardiology.

They measured every risk factor and ranked them by how much each one actually predicted heart disease.

LDL cholesterol was 1.4x. Total cholesterol was 1.0x. Barely moved the needle.

Diabetes was 10.0x. Metabolic syndrome was 6.0x. Severe obesity was 4.7x. Hypertension was 4.0x. Smoking was 4.0x.

The green bars on this chart are what your doctor focuses on. The red bars are what actually kills you.

My doctor tested the green bars 11 times in 12 years. He tested the red bars zero times.Image
Look at this chart. 100 people take statins for 5 years.

97.8 get nothing. No benefit. No protection. Nothing.

1.2 are helped.

1.0 get new onset diabetes. The single biggest risk factor for heart disease at 10.0x.

The drug prescribed to prevent heart disease is giving people the disease that causes heart disease.

For every person helped, nearly one person gets diabetes. And the other 98 just got the side effects for free. Muscle pain. Memory loss. Fatigue.Image

🚨 Claude Opus 4.7 just changed how coding works.

But almost no one is using it the way Andrej Karpathy thinks about it.

People are still stuck in:

“write this function”
“fix this bug”
“explain this code”

That’s outdated.

Karpathy’s idea?

You don’t code everything anymore.
You steer intelligence.

Here are 9 high-leverage, value-packed prompts inspired by his “vibe coding” mindset:Image
Image
1. Think Like a Senior Engineer Before Writing Code

Act as a senior software architect and AI coding partner.

We are building: [project]

Before writing ANY code:

Step 1: Clarify
- Ask me detailed questions about requirements, constraints, scale, and edge cases
- Challenge vague or weak assumptions

Step 2: Design
- Propose 2–3 possible architectures
- Compare them based on scalability, complexity, and speed of execution
- Recommend the best approach with reasoning

Step 3: Plan
- Break the system into components/modules
- Define responsibilities and data flow

Only after alignment, proceed to implementation.

Goal: Think first, code later.
2. Build With Full Context (No Generic Output)

You are working as my dedicated AI engineer.

Project context:
- Goal: [goal]
- Users: [target users]
- Tech stack: [stack]
- Constraints: [time, cost, scale]

Your job:
- Analyze this context deeply
- Identify hidden constraints or risks
- Suggest the most appropriate approach (not the most popular one)

Then:
- Generate code that strictly aligns with this context
- Explain key decisions briefly

Avoid generic patterns. Everything must be context-aware.

Andrew Huberman just dropped a 2‑hour masterclass on cortisol — your body’s main stress hormone.

High cortisol = burnout, faster aging, weight gain, memory loss, heart disease, Alzheimer’s.

Here’s a 7‑step protocol to fix your cortisol (backed by science):🧵 Image
Image
Step 1: Understand cortisol

Cortisol isn’t “bad.”

You need it to wake up, think clearly, and respond to challenges.

The problem is:
• Too much
• At the wrong time
• For too long

That’s the chronic stress pattern that quietly wrecks your health.
Step 2: Learn the rhythm

Healthy cortisol has a daily curve:
• High in the morning
• Gradually drops through the day
• Low at night so you can sleep

When your rhythm flips (low in the morning, high at night), you feel wired, exhausted, and can’t switch off.

NGO-Verschwörungen🧵
2004 begann nicht nur die Nord Stream Pipeline, sondern auch eine neue Strategie des Kremls gegen Demokratien: Der Kampf gegen NGOs.
Begonnen von Putin in Georgien+Ukraine, werden heute Aspekte davon leider auch von AfD und Union in Deutschland genutzt.
1/17 Image
Der Begriff NGO, Nichtregierungsorganisation,
wurde 1945 mit Artikel 71 der UN-Charta eingeführt, um Projektpartner der UN zu benennen, die keine staatlichen Akteure sind.
In den USA wurden solche Non-Profit-Organisationen als 3. Kraft neben Staat und Unternehmen gesehen.
2/17 Image
Bis 2004 wurden NGOs im Westen im gesamten politischen Spektrum eher positiv gesehen, als Ausdruck lebendiger Demokratie:
Bürger, die sich außerhalb staatlicher Strukturen für gemeinsame Anliegen engagieren.

Aber genau das macht sie zum Angriffsziel von Demokratie-Gegnern.

Pay attention to what is happening at the Department of Justice.

The New York Times reported today that Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is moving forward with investigations and prosecutions against five people.

Here are the five.🧵
Cassidy Hutchinson. She was the star witness at the January 6 Committee hearings.

She testified under oath about what she saw at the White House that day.
James Comey. Former FBI Director.

Fired by Trump in 2017. Previously indicted by this Justice Department.

His case was dismissed by a federal judge in November.

COVID-19 creates a state of immune dysregulation where the body may lose control over things it normally keeps suppressed - latent viruses, especially herpesviruses, and possibly even dormant cancer cells.
A new study on EBV and CD8 T cells fits into this bigger picture.🧵
The point is not simply that EBV can reactivate during COVID. We already have quite a lot of evidence for that.
In hospitalized patients with acute COVID, EBV reactivation was very common - around 68-73% - and it was seen not only in critical cases, but also in moderate disease.
The authors looked at EBV, CMV, HHV-6A and HHV-6B.

EBV dominated.
CMV and HHV-6B were detected only at low frequencies.
HHV-6A was not detected at all.
So this does not look like just random viral noise. EBV stands out.

A ver, mija, vamos a ver:

Si la tapa del baño está arriba, bájala.
Si la toalla está sobre la cama, cuélgala.
Si los platos están sucios, lávalos.
Si el espejo está salpicado, límpialo.
Si la ropa está tirada, recógela.
Si se acabó el papel del baño, pon otro.

Sigo abajo.
⤵️
Si la bolsa de basura está llena, sácala.
Si el lavabo tiene vellos de barba, límpialo.
Si la bolsa de cereal está abierta, ciérrala.
Si se acabó el bote de leche, compra otro.

Si algo te molesta a ti, hazte cargo.

Va de nuevo.

SI ALGO TE MOLESTA A TI, HAZTE CARGO.

Tú y solo tú eres responsable de resolver TUS necesidades y nadie más.

Tal vez te tardes menos de 2 minutos en hacer todo eso, sin embargo prefieres tener una discusión que se puede prolongar por años.
