You don’t have to be particularly sharp to decipher the code here. But if you need someone to say it, this is a major technology company and a sizable defense and intelligence contractor publicly declaring, with only the thinnest patina of deniability, that its cause is white nationalism.

Asking for bribes while running a heist on everyone. Make a lucrative deal that requires him to crash the market, his customers buy the cheap stock and then pump the market back up so they all make a bunch of money from us. He's will do the same trick more than once.

Dylan Thomas’ “Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night” hits hard for anyone facing the loss of a loved one. Today, read it as someone facing the systematic dismantling of our Constitution. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

THIS IS TERRIFYING‼️ Dr. Peter Marks, former head of vaccines at the FDA, just had his last day—forced to resign or be fired because he wouldn’t lie about vaccines. He gives a chilling warning: the U.S. is unprepared for biowarfare—because the response team has been gutted.

Too edgy for Private Eye? We recently ran the 1st of 3 ads in Private Eye magazine. But after our 1st they told us they wouldn't run any more. Did they give in to pressure from the shooting industry or another vested interest? Private Eye- too establishment for Wild Justice!
