Five executive teams control 90% of American media. Many are following the federal government’s lead to determine what we can & can’t say.

“Fascism should more appropriately be called corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.”

The Sedona City Council just UNANIMOUSLY canceled their contract with the mass surveillance company, Flock.

Scott Jablow, Mayor of Sedona, Az, said:

“I had no idea that the cameras were doing that kind of data sharing. None. And I feel bad for our police department who was lied to by the company.”

Due to tariffs, American soybean farmers are being forced to convert to bot & troll farms. They’re selling our arable land to China & purchasing rack servers with the cash.

Now, Americas biggest export will be hate. It used to be hate and unprocessed soybeans

Mass surveillance is here, but it's been built bottom-up, not top-down, as Flock Safety has grown its nationwide network, like a cancer, one community at a time. Excellent reporting from @kaburbank.bsky.social:

Peter Theil set a record by giving $15 million to get JD Vance elected, the largest ever donation to a single senate candidate.

The tech broligarchy is calling for Trump’s impeachment because they feel entitled to executive power in the U.S., and they own JD.

My honorary nephew (bf’s sister’s kid) started calling me Jessy. But, no one else calls me that.

I have concluded he merged Jess + Doggy (his favorite stuffed animal) and I have reached doggy-tier status in his mind and spirit. big W

I have 30 minutes of leaked audio where the acting FEMA director addresses staff in a town hall earlier today.

When Richardson was asked “which is more important, the President's will or the interests of the American people?” Richardson told staff “to me, they're the same thing.”
