Everything he says about deportation camps on military bases is spot on—and alarming. But don’t get thrown off by the name Blackwater. It’s still out there—rebranded. Blackwater became Xe in 2009, then Academi in 2011, before merging into Constellis in 2014. The name changed but the op lives on. 🧵

Pandemics do not begin with official announcements. They start with quiet deletions, missing reports, and assurances that there is "no cause for concern." Pay attention.
