We know a redacted FBI agent said "I didn't realize Bush raped him too. Ok."

We know that a redacted NYPD detective told the story of a "purported victim" of "ritualistic sacrifice" and baby dismemberment on a yacht and said "He was also raped by George Bush 1."

This thread will be about the demonic clan known as the Bushes:Image
At the 2:50 mark, Hunter S. Thompson addresses George Bush on Late Night with David Letterman on NBC in 1988: "George Bush is the guiltiest man in politics."

Go to the 6:55 mark, Hunter says "You want to talk about guilt? You want to talk about religion? I went to Hillbilly. I don't know too much about (unintelligible) but we share one thing in common, which is a sense of justice."

Hillbilly was the name of the Bush camp at Bohemian Grove, which included such luminaries as Walter Cronkite, William F. Buckley, Donald Rumsfeld, and the commander of Apollo 8, the first U.S. human space mission that went to the moon but did not land in 1968.

Some of these men have dark, disturbing ties to secret societies and lies that were told to the people over the decades.
"Meet the Press" host Tim Russert asked George W. Bush and John Kerry about their membership in Skull and Bones, the secret society at Yale University, and both men avoid the question.

Russert even mentions "322," the secret number in Skull and Bones that stands for the year 322 B.C. when Greek populist Demosthenes died and with it Greek democracy, ushering in the rise of a class of unelected plutocrats who rule the commoners.

Tim Russert suffered a surprise heart attack at age 58 in the NBC Washington Bureau and died on June 13, 2008.

Finally got through the Starliner report. And hooboy. It's bad. What a read. Really nothing else like it.

The root cause of it is:
(1) Space is hard and it turns out one cannot just make a capsule like that. Boeing's previous expertise in spacecraft building wasn't applicable. Image
(2) It being a "Commercial program" created a culture of limited oversight and NASA didn't understand the systems well enough to properly certify it and Boeing, knowing this, flouted requirements and sidestepped specifications to make schedule.
(3) Endemic cultural and leadership issues at NASA leadership and Boeing. NASA was at some points too aggressively advocating commercialization without proper oversight, and at other times involved in what can only be described as a dysfunctional relationship with Boeing.

THREAD 🧵I know everyone is very excited about aliens this morning, but I ask you, is it really as exciting as super wonky insights on dollar liquidity plumbing, Federal Reserve balance sheet policy, and stablecoin statecraft?

I think not. I interviewed Fed governor Stephen Miran this week and those were just some of the topics we discussed. For those who can't be bothered to wade through the transcript, I thought it might be useful to highlight the wonkiest bits.

thepeg.co/p/transcript-f…
1) Top wonky insight for me is that Miran is as perplexed as me about the ongoing role of the Fed Funds Market. "I’m not quite sure why we hold on to the Fed funds rate, but we do. Maybe someday someone will explain it to me," he said.
2) I asked him if the current environment calls for greater awareness of how debt management policy is interacting with monetary policy.

He said that while the two don’t require explicit coordination, because the Fed should be pursuing monetary policy for monetary purposes, and Treasury should be pursuing fiscal policy for fiscal policy purposes, they do require awareness, because what "the one does can depend on what the other does, because the choices from the one can affect conditions that matter for the choices of the other."

And "In theory, you could run up against a time in which there are constraints."

In een zeer eenzijdig item over #ICE — zoals wij dat ook van de @NOS gewend zijn — zond het #ZDF zondag AI-beelden uit en tevens beelden die niet ICE-gerelateerd zijn. Na externe kritiek rectificeerde de Duitse publieke zender dinsdag. Pas vandaag NOS-berichtgeving daarover. 1/9 Image
De NOS bericht naar aanleiding van het terugroepen van de Amerika-correspondent Nicola #Albrecht, maar de NOS had hieraan natuurlijk veel eerder aandacht moeten besteden. Kritiek volgde meteen na de uitzending en dinsdag moest het ZDF onder grote druk dus rectificeren. 2/9
Dat de twee journalistieke doodzonden per ongeluk werden begaan — zoals het ZDF beweert — wordt door veel Duitsers betwijfeld. Het valt op dat de journalistieke fouten van het ZDF steeds ten nadele van Trump, Israël, enzovoort uitvallen. 3/9 #linksactivistisch #Grünfunk

Scientists gave 20 Alzheimer's patients creatine monohydrate for 8 weeks.

This was the first clinical trial to test creatine in humans with Alzheimer's.

What happened to their memory and cognition was extraordinary.

Here's how remarkable creatine can be for your brain: Image
Alzheimer's involves impaired brain energy metabolism.

Creatine supplies energy to the brain.

Animal studies showed it improved cognition and reduced Alzheimer's biomarkers.

But no one knew if oral creatine could even reach the brain in Alzheimer's patients:
University of Kansas researchers recruited 20 Alzheimer's patients.

Ages 60-90. 90% had confirmed pathology.

The intervention: 20 grams of creatine daily for 8 weeks, split into two doses.

The real question was whether it would work:

Tae Kim(@firstadopter )의 포스팅에서 마이클 버리가 직접 쓴 내용을 옮겨봅니다.

"몇 년 전엔 많은 프로 투자자들이 한국을 포기했어요. 저도 그랬고요.

지금 한국 시장이 보여주는 모습 보면, 끝까지 버틴 사람들이 있어서 다행이라는 생각이 들어요. 작년 초에 한국을 제 포트폴리오에서 세 손가락 안에 드는 큰 비중으로 만들었어요. 꽤 괜찮은 수익을 냈지만, 본격적으로 오르기 직전에 펀드를 청산해버렸죠.

지금 일어나고 있는 일들이 아직도 믿기 어려워요. ‘코리아 디스카운트’는 여러 면에서 정당화되는 측면이 있어요. 자본 배분이 형편없고, 많은 기업이 가족 경영이라서, 외국인이 거래하려면 승인을 받기도 어렵고, 원화 헤지가 쉽지 않아요 — 포트폴리오 구성상 수출 기업 비중이 높을 수밖에 없으니까요. 교차지분 구조 때문에, 예를 들어 기아가 멋진 기술을 개발해도 자체적으로 활용할 수 없고 현대 쪽으로 넘어가는 식이죠. 유동성이 극도로 낮아서 장기간 지속되는 경우도 많고 — 들어가기는 쉽지만 빠져나오기 어려운 ‘로치 모텔’ 같은 종목이 수두룩해요.

저는 20년 넘게 한국에 투자했어요. 그런데 몇 년 전에는 제 ‘베타-타임 클락’마저 포기할 정도였죠.

예전에 자주 인용하던 실제 종목이 있었는데, 운영적으로는 제가 기대했던 모든 것을 해냈어요. 단 한 가지 예상하지 못한 건, 10년이 지나도 기업가치가 거의 제로에 가깝고, 시가총액이 현금 보유액 바로 위 수준에 머물러 있다는 거였어요 — 훌륭한 실행력과 현금 창출 능력에도 불구하고요. 그 종목 다시 찾아보려고요. 어딘가에 정리해둔 게 있을 거예요.

참고로, 항상, 정말 항상 — 삼성전자가 장부가치 수준일 때는 무조건 사세요."
<예전에 자주 인용하던 실제 종목이 있었는데, 운영적으로는 제가 기대했던 모든 것을 해냈어요. 단 한 가지 예상하지 못한 건, 10년이 지나도 기업가치가 거의 제로에 가깝고, 시가총액이 현금 보유액 바로 위 수준에 머물러 있다는 거였어요 — 훌륭한 실행력과 현금 창출 능력에도 불구하고요. 그 종목 다시 찾아보려고요. 어딘가에 정리해둔 게 있을 거예요.>

과연 이게 뭘까요? ㅎㅎ 한번 찾아봅시다. 외국인들이 들어오기전에 시즈모드 박아둬야죠.

어디한번 한국의 불맛을 보여줘 보죠...

Our latest Claude Code hackathon is officially a wrap.

500 builders spent a week exploring what they could do with Opus 4.6 and Claude Code.

Meet the winners:
🥇CrossBeam by Mike Brown

California builders lose months navigating permit corrections.

CrossBeam speeds up California's permitting process by giving builders and municipalities faster tools for code compliance and plan review.
🥈 Elisa by Jon McBee

A visual programming environment for kids where you snap blocks together and Claude spins up agents to build the real code behind the scenes.

The first user: his 12-year-old daughter.

Russian drone operators are using Belarusian civilian infrastructure to attack #Ukraine — and even test routes toward #NATO countries.

Ukrainian hackers infiltrated their systems for 6+ months. Here’s what we uncovered 🧵👇Image
2/ Hacktivists from Fenix Cyber Analytics Center, supported by InformNapalm volunteers, broke into accounts of dozens of Russian UAV operators.

They gained access to:
• #drone route planning software
• live operator chats
• real-time surveillance feeds

And monitored them 24/7...Image
3/ Intercepted chat, Sept 25, 2025:

“Drone ЫЫ12057 normal takeoff at 11:08 in the direction of Chernihiv.”

#Belarus was used as a relay zone to expand strike capabilities against northern #Ukraine — from Kyiv to Volyn.

This was systematic.Image
