@PressSec 1/4 You actually make me SICK to my stomach...as if this country isn't DIVIDED enough as it is, thanks to P'sOS like YOU and the ENTIRE Trump Cabinet out here race baiting everyone. How DARE you call all Democrats "Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent
2/4 criminals" just because you don't LIKE them. I don't like you ReTRUMPlicans either, but I don't call all of YOU "spineless, immoral, lying, corrupt Trump sycophants with no moral or ethical compasses" even though that is what you TRULY are! I am NO terrorist...unlike YOU I

Thinking about Chicago's murder rate. Steady this year compared to 2025, but way down from 2021 and about the same as 2004, 2010, and 2011. The number in 2025 was the lowest in decades, but Chicago has been losing population, generally. Especially black people. (1/11)
Chicago non-hispanic black male population age 18-40 vs everybody else. The former group is victimized in ~50% of Chicago murders. And this % is remarkably stable, at 48% + or - 2% every year since 1990! This group offends at a similar (albeit slightly higher) rate.
(2/11)
The Chicago population of non-hispanic black men 18-40 has dropped 38% since 2000 (185k in 2000 to 124K in 2020 to ~115k in 2025). If this decline includes a proportionate representation of killers (a big if), it could bring down the city's murder rate ~ 19% (half of 38%) (3/11)

@DHSgov @StarTribune @StribOpinion @nickshirleyy If ethnic communities insist on trying to justify or explain away horrible felony crimes against children as “culture,” then they have just demonstrated, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that that “culture” is unsuitable for refugee status and living within our laws.
Canada needs to move beyond fossil fuel wars and outdated polluting energy supplies. We don’t want cancer, deaths by smog or toxic water. It is harmful for our health, our economy and planet. Stop wasting our tax dollars on pipelines and gas ventures. Invest in Thane Heins Technology. @MarkJCarney @ElizabethMay @avilewis @yfblanchet @PierrePoilievre slideshare.net/slideshow/fina…
Canadians are paying over $500 more every year on their property insurance as a direct result of climate change. Insurance companies are forecasting that losses from storms, fires and extreme heat are rising 11.5% every year, making home insurance even more expensive. environmentaldefence.ca/report/mountin…
Enbridge lacks insurance. This is my response provided to me by the chair of Canada’s Energy Regulator (CER formerly the NEB). Dated 2020 they used info from 2016 to show collateral for insurance. Look at this. Several of these pipes on the list were already sold off to different owners.
It's called an Offer in Compromise (OIC)—one of the least understood IRS programs.
Educational purposes only. Here's how it works (and how the IRS calculates your offer): (Open the thread)🧵
1/ The IRS knows that collecting every dollar isn't always realistic.
Instead of spending years pursuing taxpayers with little ability to pay, they may accept a reduced settlement if it represents the maximum they believe they can reasonably collect.
⚡️🧵The breakdown of major corporate sponsors in the Freedom 250 State Fair grift and their active federal entanglements details how these entities align with the pipeline. According to recent investigations by watchdog groups like Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) and findings from the House Natural Resources Committee report, Freedom 250’s sponsor list is a corporate catalog of entities seeking massive favors from the federal government.
Freedom 250 offered tier-structured access, allowing companies to buy private receptions, photo-ops, and main-stage speaking roles with the president for checks ranging from $500,000 to $10 million. This arrangement created a direct avenue for corporate interests to seek favor with the administration while funding a highly partisan "state fair".
Defense and Intelligence Contractors
The most active corporate PACs and donors fueling Freedom 250 belong to the defense sector, where billions of dollars in multi-year procurement programs are routinely decided by federal agencies.
→Lockheed Martin: This defense titan is a primary sponsor of the event. Lockheed Martin relies heavily on continuous federal appropriations for the F-35 fighter jet program and advanced missile systems, both of which face strict annual oversight and budget caps from the administration and the House Appropriations Defense Subcommittee.
→Northrop Grumman: Publicly identified as an official partner of the celebration, the company holds massive active and pending aerospace contracts with both the Department of Defense and NASA, including major components of the B-21 Raider stealth bomber program.
→Palantir Technologies: Known for its data analytics and AI infrastructure, Palantir is listed as a major corporate donor. The company routinely competes for multi-million dollar data intelligence contracts across the Pentagon, the National Security Agency (NSA), and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Technology and Consulting Giants
Major tech firms with pending infrastructure overhauls and data-hosting projects have poured cash into the private LLC.
→Oracle: Listed as a primary corporate sponsor, Oracle has been actively vying for expanding shares of the Department of Defense’s multi-cloud enterprise contract, alongside ongoing software integration projects across various federal civilian agencies.
→SAP: The enterprise software giant is named in watchdog records as an financial backer. SAP frequently bids on multi-million dollar logistics and enterprise resource planning (ERP) system upgrades for federal agencies, including the Defense Logistics Agency.
→Deloitte: This major consulting firm is linked to Freedom 250's fundraising. Deloitte secures billions annually in federal consulting and IT modernization contracts, leaving them heavily dependent on favorable agency procurement decisions.
As I have been saying for years, and was summarily dismissed by several so-called left-wing media outlets, Peter Thiel of Palantir is planning to build several private city-states run by a CEO, replacing social governance and collective sovereignty with corporate governance and corporate sovereignty.
The UK duopoly's nationwide rollout of deregulated free zones immediately after Brexit is already carving up the UK into patchworks of corporate sovereignties.
The British public was not meant to know this as secondary legislation bypassed Parliamentary debate, public consultation, and notification of the press.
Palantir has 35 contracts with key UK public institutions. The head of the UK branch is Louis Mosley, grandson of British fascist Oswald Mosley.
Palantir's Alex Karp head-hunted Louis Mosely and quoted his grandfather's fascist speeches during the interview, which called for Britain to seek peace with Nazi Germany.
There are 48 SEZs and 8 Freeports in England, 18 SEZs and 2 Freeports in Scotland, and 8 SEZs and 2 Freeports in Wales. In January 2025 Keir Starmer launched AI Growth Zones, which provides the digital layer of free zones.
Reminder
Freeports, SEZs, AI Growth Zones are by their very nature expansionist projects, which just so happen to culminate in free/charter cities.
William Rees-Mogg was the father of Jacob Rees-Mogg. He co-wrote the 1997 book The Sovereign Individual - How to Survive and Thrive During the Collapse of the Welfare State, which predicts that the Information Age will destroy the nation-state and give rise to a new elite class of wealthy, liberated individuals.

The UK MSM has been consistently ignoring Thiel’s infiltration of the UK’s and USA’s public sector, and what his ultimate plans for ‘exit’ from democracy comprise.
A key name here is libertarian Peter Thiel whose company Palantir has sizable chunks of the NHS and the UK’s Police Force.
Thiel and Marc Andreessen are funding an entire company – Pronomos Capital – dedicated to the building of futuristic tech cities around the world.

Vocês tratam desses assuntos com uma profundidade de um pires. O que vou dizer aqui, caso você seja um católico que entrou na Igreja ontem, não leia, ou se acha que sua fé pode ser abalada com qualquer caso de algum problema humano. ⬇️
Bem, principalmente os leigos acham que a SSPX é imaculada, que as marcas de infalibilidade estão nela, mas a realidade é bem diferente.
Já existem muitos idiotas ateus ou de outras religiões que estão se aproveitando desse triste fato acontecido dia 1° para atacar ⬇️
a Santa Igreja.
Por isso peço aos irmãos que até aqui chegaram que levem isso como um aprendizado de como devemos ser prudentes ao tratar desse tema.
Bem, o autor do post disse que não há sodomia entre o clero da SSPX, aqui irei relatar alguns casos que dizem o contrário: ⬇️
🚨 In a 2–1 vote, the Fifth Circuit ruled that immigrants who entered the U.S. without inspection but have lived here for years cannot be held indefinitely without an individualized bond hearing. The court held the Fifth Amendment requires a hearing by 90 days of detention.
The majority said Congress cannot define the scope of the Fifth Amendment by labeling someone an "applicant for admission." While the INA mandates detention, the Constitution independently protects people who have lived in the U.S. for years and developed substantial ties.
Judge Graves concurred only in the judgment because he would require bond hearings sooner than 90 days. In his view, the Constitution demands a more prompt individualized hearing, though he joined the majority because its rule still guarantees a hearing by the 90-day mark.
1/ Graham's right, he's referring to a Judgment by the former President of the Family Division called Re J. It's available in the link below, in this case Gender GP prescribed a troubled girl a dose of testosterone so high she was at risk of sudden death
2/ Let's look at the case from a summary. You can see Gender GP was entirely negligent and allowed a potentially fatal dose to be prescribed after a consultation.
3/ Now let's look at J's medical history. This is a very vulnerable young female with really serious problems.
Daily Ukraine map thread for Thursday 2nd July 2026
We're back from a short jaunt to the east, and catch up has begun. You'll likely have seen the long range strikes already, so we'll just catch you up on the midstrike campaign.
Around Donetsk, Russian bloggers published plenty of footage from the truck depots and other storage sites for many logistics vehicles, showing the devastating effect the drones have had on availability of vehicles. Drivers continue to show burning trucks by the side of the road too, as traffic gets hammered. If you think it's bad right now, just wait until next month...
Many thanks to the geolocators for their work on this, once again we can only highlight a few of the key ones in this thread, but the many hundreds of others are on the map and in the log.

🚨JUST DROPPED: @DHSgov Office of Inspector General releases report on “Secret Service Missed Opportunities to Prevent and Disrupt the Attempted Assassination of President Trump on July 13, 2024."
One of the top findings confirms one of the big mysteries of the Butler assassination attempt and who is really at fault: The Secret Service didn't use available equipment to block the line of sight between the AGR building and the stage where President Trump spoke, allowing shooter Thomas Crooks a clear 155-yard shot at Trump. This occurred despite extensive Secret Service training that instructs agents to place objects that "enhance light-of-sight coverage" at events, the OIG reports asserts. The OIG also produced the video below to demonstrate just how clear a shot Crooks had of Trump and the stage.
Who is at fault for that?
In its report, the DHS OIG said the Secret Service WOULD NOT TELL THEM if campaign staff had placed equipment that was already on site at the event locations that would have blocked the line of sight.
I have reported, and a report from Sen. Rand Paul's office later reported, that the Secret Service tried to use farm equipment to block that line of sight -- but the Trump campaign objected to the optics of it -- and requested that it be removed.
Here's where it gets interesting: The Secret Service complied. It's unclear who in the Secret Service is responsible for failing to stand up to and override the campaign staff who wanted the equipment removed.
-Miyo Perez was the USSS agent in charge of security. She was an inexperienced agent and known within the detail as a partier, not a serious.
There were two supervisory agents that were supposed to provide oversight to Perez's work, Nick Menster and Nick Olszewski. Those two agents were never punished for their role in Butler's porous security plan and execution. In fact, current Secret Service Director Sean Curran gave them big promotions.
Interestingly, it was Curran who was ultimately responsible for all security decisions for the Butler site -- including the decision to remove farm equipment or not place additional equipment to block the line of sight.
Curran was the detail leader for the team protecting Trump during the campaign, and he signed off on the site plan.
This new OIG report doesn't address whether Curran himself directly approved the removal of farm equipment from the site so the line of site remained unobstructed for Crooks' shot that nearly killed Trump and did murder Corey Comperatore and seriously wound two others, James Copenhaver and David Dutch. Copenhaver and Duth are now suing the Secret Service over the agency's "preventable failures," as their lawsuit asserts.
It's possible that OIG investigators asked Curran, and he refused to say.
Oregonians' are proud of their "measures" that supposedly puts control directly in the voters hands.
Did we really get what we voted for?
In the 1990s we moved to Oregon partially on the premise that property taxes were going to increase slowly due to measures 5 & 50.
No!
Your core property tax rate is growing slowly, but Measures were used to unbundle what property tax used to pay for.
Now most everyone votes YES! I want higher property taxes when they approve the latest measure be it for:
Fire
Police
Schools
Parks
You name it
We pay more today than we ever would have under the old model. Where the county would have had to make the hard decisions on how to spend the funds raised thru property taxes.
TVF&R for example used the sockets bet to buy themselves brand new fire stations everywhere!
Japan and South Korea once seemed to defy the standard laws of metabolic health. Their kitchens buzzed with sizzling vegetable oils, yet their populations stayed lean and their hearts remained healthy.
This statistical anomaly led public health officials to declare industrial seed oils safe. In reality, a powerful dietary shield protected these populations from the metabolic damage of vegetable oils.
To understand this protection, we must look at the enzymes that process polyunsaturated fats. Plant-derived vegetable oils contain linoleic acid, which the body converts into inflammatory molecules.
However, marine fats from seafood act as natural blockers. The omega-3 fats from fish bind to these same enzymes, preventing the plant fats from converting into inflammatory compounds.
While historical East Asian diets contained enough fish to block this pathway, other populations are genetically vulnerable. For example, many South Asian populations carry a gene variant that accelerates this enzyme pathway.
This genetic trait converts linoleic acid into inflammatory agents rapidly, making vegetable oils a major metabolic burden without marine fats to block them.
Heat turns vegetable oils toxic. Their chemical structure contains fragile bonds that rupture easily during cooking. This breakdown starts a chain reaction called lipid peroxidation. The result is a flood of toxic compounds called aldehydes, specifically 4-hydroxynonenal and malondialdehyde.
These toxins enter the bloodstream through the lymphatic system, bypassing the liver entirely. Once inside your cells, they target the mitochondria, the tiny engines that generate cellular energy.
The toxins attach directly to cardiolipin, a fat that keeps the mitochondrial engine running. This attachment shuts down energy production, causing the cell to sputter and fail.
Traditional diets provided three defense mechanisms that neutralized these toxic byproducts. First, these cultures consumed very low amounts of total fat, typically ten to fifteen percent of their daily calories. This low intake kept the total amount of linoleic acid extremely small.
At the same time, they ate plenty of easily digestible starches like white rice. Clean glucose from starch filled their liver glycogen stores, which enabled the liver to convert thyroid hormones into their active form. This active thyroid hormone stimulated the production of glutathione, the body's primary antioxidant.
Second, green tea provided a compound called epigallocatechin-3-gallate. This molecule activates a cellular defense pathway that prompts the body to create its own protective enzymes.
Third, seafood provided taurine, selenium, and special fats. Selenium acts as a helper for an enzyme that repairs cell membranes damaged by oxidation, while taurine maintains antioxidant levels.
Fermented soy foods like miso provided compounds that acted as local antioxidants, protecting the mitochondrial membranes from damage. These factors combined to form a protective barrier, masking the negative effects of the vegetable oils.
The detailed practical application of these remedies, including specific preparation methods and daily strategies, appears in Part 2, with a bullet point cheat sheet in Part 3.

PART 2: THE METABOLIC RESTORATION PROTOCOL
Reclaiming your metabolic health requires a deliberate shift in the fats you consume daily. Begin by eliminating industrial seed oils from your kitchen. Replace canola, corn, soybean, and cottonseed oils with heat-stable saturated fats. Butter, ghee, coconut oil, and beef tallow provide stable chemical bonds that resist oxidation when you cook. This simple change immediately reduces the creation of toxic aldehydes in your food and protects your cellular engines.
Next, rebuild your body's defense systems by introducing marine fats and clean energy sources. Eat wild seafood regularly to supply the omega-3 fats that block the conversion of linoleic acid. Shellfish and cold-water fish also provide selenium and taurine, which support your body's natural antioxidant enzymes and protect your cell membranes. Pair these marine fats with easily digestible carbohydrates like ripe fruits, raw honey, and well-cooked starches. These clean sugars fill your liver with glycogen, helping convert thyroid hormones to their active form and boosting your glutathione levels.
Finally, incorporate protective beverages and traditional foods into your routine. Drink high-quality green tea to activate the cellular pathways that produce antioxidant enzymes. You can also include traditional fermented soy foods like natto or miso in your meals. These fermented foods provide vitamin K2 and protective compounds that help stabilize your mitochondrial membranes, keeping your cellular respiration running smoothly.
Eventually, much of AI will converge towards intuition-guided symbolic world modeling, i.e. deep learning-guided program synthesis. It is inevitable. Symbolic modeling lets a system construct a compact, reusable, highly generalizable mental model of a problem space using minimal data.
Does it mean LLMs / LRMs go away? Not at all. In the short term, they are still the best way to perform intuition guidance (codegen). In the long term, even if they become obsolete for reasoning itself, we will still need models of language in order to communicate with AI systems
Even right now, many workflows are morphing into LRM-guided harnessess that manipulate symbolic programs. Which is a crude, but currently-accessible form of symbolic learning.
