More confirmation that we are living under military rule on a national level and that Kamala Harris has been picked to be the mascot for the elitists who now call the shots. I am writing this as someone who refuses to vote for either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump.
If the mass murderer had been an avowed white supremacist, his/her writings would have been public immediately after the murders. In the case of the March 2023 Nashville mass murders, however, the shooter was a transgender man, so the rule are completely different. The authorities are doing everything possible to prevent those writings from being public because the would (presumably) conflict with a powerful narrative relating to transgender ideology. FIRE explains:
A Nashville judge held that the journal entries of school shooter Audrey Hale, who went by Aiden, can’t be released under state open records law because to do so would violate copyright law. If you’re confused, that’s probably because you understand copyright law, open records law, or both.
In the United States, copyright is an economic right. While those are important, they should not generally outweigh compelling public interests — like knowing how we missed the motives that led to the murder of three children and three adults.
I recently wrote about the backstory of this case on FIRE President and CEO Greg Lukianoff’s Eternally Radical Idea Substack newsletter, but let’s walk through how we got here.
I've heard several people tell me that they were not using their phone, but it was in the room while they were discussing something with another person (in person). Then, I have been told by others, they started getting advertisements relevant to that in-person conversation. I have no insight into this. I don't know based on any personal information whether this is true or even possible. Then along came this interview off of Erik Prince. His background includes the following according to Wikipedia: American businessman, former U.S. Navy SEAL officer, and the founder of the private military company Blackwater. He served as Blackwater's CEO until 2009 and as its chairman until its sale to a group of investors in 2010. Prince heads the private equity firm Frontier Resource Group and was chairman of the Hong Kong-listed Frontier Services Group until 2021.
Tonight I heard this excerpt from Prince's conversation with Tucker Carlson. At the time I first heard the interview I didn't know who Prince was. I looked him up and then I noticed the comment by Elon Musk following the Tweet-video of Prince. Holy Shit.
We've been doing a study, following our device, a Google mobile services phone, or iPhone, and at about 3am, we're seeing a spike of data leaving the phone - about 50MB.
That is basically that phone dialing home to the mothership, exporting all of Pillow talk, whatever.
Zuckerberg paid $20B for WhatsApp - why?
Because every everything that goes through there is diced, and analyzed, and used to sell advertising to that customer.
If you're not paying for something, you aren't the customer, you're the product."
Please. Someone tell me who is moving the levers of power in DC and how? Matt Taibbi offers this:
Mike Johnson is now Winston Churchill. All he had to do was give the NSA unlimited spying power, overrule constituents about funding two wars, and support allowing government to block a platform used by 60 million Americans.
In return he got: nothing. No immigration reform, no articulation of benchmarks or a plan for success in Ukraine, no accounting for past spending, no insistence on warrants to spy on Americans, no concession that FISA can only be reauthorized by Congress, no claw-back of a major new “Everybody is a Spy” surveillance ask. Johnson traded his starting lineup for the proverbial bag of balls.
History will look back at a moment below from April 12th, just before the House passed FISA, and wonder about a last comment from Johnson. The Speaker talks about being originally horrified by the “terrible abuses, hundreds of thousands of abuses” of FISA by the FBI.
But “then when I became Speaker, I went to the [secure briefing room] and got a confidential briefing” from intelligence officials, and heard “sort of the other perspective on that.” It “gave him a different perspective.”
If this became law, millions of American small business owners would have a legal obligation to hand over data that runs through their equipment," caution former Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R–Va.) and former Sen. Mark Udall (D–Colo.), both now with the Project for Privacy and Surveillance Accountability. "And when they're done with doing their part in mass surveillance, these small businesses would then be placed under a gag order to hide their activities from their customers."
It seems like Glenn Greenwald is thinking more bad things are happening than he is willing to articulate at this time. Consider this part of Glenn's monologue:

I also recommend this well-crafted documentary. That said, every time I revisit the facts around Kennedy's assassination it feels like a kick in the stomach. The bits and pieces that we know do not add up to the official narrative. And, as mentioned in the film, why is the U.S. government still withholding thousands of records from the public, even though the release of all remaining documents should have been made public in 2017 under a 1992 law? It's been more than 60 years since the murder of a U.S. President, yet one or more people still have significant political power, as well as the incentive and the ability, to keep this compelling information from the public. The official narrative has dozens of holes you could drive a truck through. This film carefully explores many of those holes, suggesting disturbing answers along the way.
My gut tells me that sweet old Ruth Paine knows a hell of a lot more than she's currently admitting. If so, however, why was she willing to sit and talk with the film-maker at length in 2022? Because she is still on the clock? Because it is her job to maintain the narrative (for the same reasons that thousands of records remain secret?). Or was she duped many years ago and needs to maintain the narrative for self-preservation? Maybe many of us would prefer that the murder be committed by one madman rather than acknowledge that a coup of the U.S. government happened in plain daylight, given a enormous assist by the Warren Commission, one member being Allen Dulles, who Kennedy fired as CIA Director in 1961 following the failed Bay of Pigs mission. As Philadelphia lawyer Vince Salandria, an fervent critic of the official narrative stated, You can’t close the circle without the Paines. There is no way they can be innocent. No way.”
At the end of the film, he added:
There is no mystery here. It’s all self-evident. It was a coup. It was designed to be a false mystery and the debate would be eternal and why it [killing JFK] was done – forgotten. To commit yourself to the truth here, you are changing your real identity from a citizen of a democracy to a subject of a military empire. A big step.
Here's one other mini-spoiler: One woman who was interviewed in the film said that right after Kennedy was assassinated, she called her sister, a fifth grade teacher in Texas. Her sister told her that immediately after the class learned that Kennedy was assassinated, the students cheered because they considered Kennedy to be a communist. I had never heard anything like this before.
