I’m definitely not wrong about the sadism. I got the information from an expert in the field. You may not have put this together, but I’ve been a cop for almost 20 years. I’ve worked sex crimes, Narcotics, and Homicide. I know _exactly_ what men like you are. I know what you enjoy, and why you enjoy it. I also know that paraphilias cluster: men like you are more likely to have multiple fetishes than to have just one, and masochism and sadism are frequently comorbid. I’ve served with men like you. I’ve arrested men like you. I’ve gone through their hard drives, their devices, and their videotape collections. I know exactly what goes on inside your head when you’re getting all dolled up in womanface. I know you use yourselves as substitute victims when you can’t get the real thing. I know that if you have daughters or wives or sisters, or if you live with your mom, none of you hesitate for a moment to dress up in their panties to masturbate. I know you get off on trespassing in women’s spaces, and I also know that if you continue doing these things, after a while you get used to it and the arousal goes away. The next move? Taking the depravity a step further — which is why men like you start out by going out cross-dressed at 1 o’clock in the morning when no one can see you, and work your way up to the point at which you are openly masturbating in women’s bathrooms. Finally, I don’t give a good goddamn if my anger disappoints you. Take a good look in the mirror, “Jenni JingJing.” Why would any normal human being give a flying rat’s ass what a predatory pervert like you thinks about anything?

🇫🇷🔴A French journalist says there is a shocking pattern of foreigners raping elderly women in France. Just this week, a Moroccan migrant was arrested for raping and torturing a 74-year-old woman in Romainville with a telescopic baton. "She’s raped, a 74-year-old woman, it’s unimaginable. And it happens again and again," said journalist Charlotte d’Ornellas "Our job is to bear witness to reality. And that’s why some people are at war with us, they don’t want us to show this reality. If we don’t talk about it, no one will." Here are 13 terrifying cases that @rmxnews has covered in the past few years – just in France. 🔺93- and 95-year-old women raped in their hospital beds at Victor Dupouy Hospital, Argenteuil, by 44-year-old Samir B. The 93-year-old later died of cardiac arrest. 🔺 78- and 68-year-old hospital patients sexually assaulted at Max-Fourestier Hospital, Nanterre, by 28-year-old Congolese migrant Ali Gandega, who said he was "forced" to rape because he had no girlfriend. 🔺83-year-old woman ("Odette") raped during a daytime burglary in La Penne-sur-Huveaune by an illegal Guinean migrant. Perpetrator sentenced to 12 years. 🔺75-year-old woman raped on New Year's morning during a break-in by an African migrant. 🔺80-year-old woman raped to death in Niort by an Afghan man. 🔺102-year-old nursing home resident in Rouen subjected to attempted rape by 39-year-old Laury Jean-Baptiste from Guadeloupe. She died less than a month later. He received 20 years. 🔺In 2025, a 72-year-old woman assaulted, raped, and robbed inside her own apartment in Paris. 🔺Elderly building caretaker raped at knifepoint in Paris by 24-year-old migrant Mohammed D., sentenced to 9 years. 🔺Elderly woman raped in her Paris apartment after an illegal Algerian migrant offered to help her with her groceries. 🔺67-year-old woman subjected to attempted rape near Gare du Nord, Paris, by a 27-year-old illegal Tunisian migrant. Passersby intervened. 🔺Another victim, also 67, also suffered an attempted rape in the French town of Tours by an intoxicated Sudanese asylum seeker. 🔺Actu 17 news reported how a 21-year-old illegal migrant of unknown nationality was arrested following the sexual assault of a 51-year-old woman as she returned to her home in Avignon. 🔺92-year-old nursing home resident sexually assaulted by Algerian nurse Mohamed D. in Bédarrides. He received 4 years.

UK GOVERNMENT THAT FALSELY ACCUSED 686,000 PEOPLE JUST GOT BANK SURVEILLANCE POWERS This April @DWPgovuk got powers letting banks flag your account for benefit fraud. No court order needed. Michelle Burns claimed PIP for 6 years. DWP told her she was never entitled to it and owed £28,000. She had nightmares about being arrested. It was entirely the DWP's mistake. @GBNEWS A single mother was falsely accused of owing £12,000. The DWP actually owed her money. @BigIssue 686,756 official-error debt cases were opened in one year alone. PIP fraud rate: 0.2%. Potential false flags from the new bank checks: 200,000 people. The DWP's accounts have been qualified by the UK's chief auditor for 37 years running. Same department. New surveillance powers. Zero accountability for the carnage already caused. @BigBrotherWatch warned this is a second-tier justice system for the poorest. They're right.

You'd have to be out of your mind to become a landlord here. Stamp duty ~= first 6yrs of rent. Almost 50% income tax on rental income. No deduction of mortgage interest, taxed on revenue. Cap gains when sell. Can't get rid of tenants. Rent control. Can't ever get your property back. Evict in the wrong way and you'll be fined 30 grand. Any eviction or rent increases can be challenged at tribunal. Now tenants can nick your property on the cheap. Quadruple council tax if you AirBnB it. If it's large, mansion tax is coming. New energy efficiency rules coming meaning expensive insulation upgrades (good luck with that on old listed Edinburgh flats). Oh, and despite paying all those taxes and giving someone a home, everyone will still hate you 🤣 Might as well just buy gilts...click of a button, no stamp duty, no CGT.

The Zone They Didn’t Tell You About How a 616-acre corporate enclave was quietly built in Somerset, and why the Guardian’s coverage of the Agratas gigafactory grant tells only half the story. On Thursday 9 April 2026, The Guardian reported that the UK government is giving £380 million to Tata’s Agratas gigafactory in Bridgwater, Somerset. Business Secretary Peter Kyle visited the construction site. The public is being made to fund, through a £380 million direct grant, through Enterprise Zone tax reliefs, through ringfenced business rates, through planning derogations, through a 25-year governance architecture created without their knowledge or consent, the production of vehicles that the vast majority of them will never be able to afford. The green transition is real. The strategic case for domestic battery manufacturing is real. But the class structure of who bears the cost and who captures the product is not incidental to the policy. It is the policy. The batteries being manufactured at the Agratas plant in Bridgwater will supply Jaguar Land Rover. The vehicles they will power have an average transaction price of £136,000. They are not the cars of the construction workers building the factory, or the workers who will eventually staff it. They are luxury commodities for the global wealthy, the same class fraction that the broligarchy serves, that the attention economy extracts from, and that zone-based industrial policy has always, beneath its levelling-up language, most reliably delivered for. Statutory Instruments (secondary legislation) used for the rollout were not debated in Parliament, there was zero consultation with the public, and zero notification of the press. I write about the nationwide spread of deregulated free zones that are stealthily corporatising the Commons. Zone Fever was set up by the Tories and fully backed by Labour right after Brexit.

A British company called Skycutter, based in the East Midlands, just finished first out of the entire field in the Pentagon's Drone Dominance Program. Score of 99.3 out of 100. The largest order goes to them: two and a half thousand units, an initial Pentagon contract of twenty million dollars, with an option to scale up to two hundred million. Read that and really soak it in. It's something that rarely happens anymore. A small British startup beat the entire American defence-tech industrial complex on its own home turf, in a competition the Pentagon designed itself, against companies that get whatever they ask for from Washington on a Tuesday morning. It looks likely to be followed by something that always happens - Skycutter are, by the looks of things, going to pack up their talent and their operations and move all of it to America. Why? The MoD, they say, is too slow. The procurement cycle is too long. There is no clear pathway from "British company that builds something the world wants" to "British company that the British state buys from in serious quantity at serious speed." No byway through which you move from "A potentially world-toppling IP advantage" to "Complete and deserved domination of the global market." So we are about to lose them. Not because they want to leave, but because the country that produced them cannot organise itself fast enough to keep them. The MoD's response, by the way, was to issue a statement saying it wants the UK to be "the best place in the world to start and grow a defence business." It does not want to do this. Indeed it is difficult to convey, in polite English, how galling that sentence is when read alongside the news it is responding to. You're a serious country? You'd fight for a company like Skycutter. You'd fight to take them if they weren't yours, and you'd fight like mad to keep them if they were. A serious country has someone in Whitehall whose entire fucking job is making sure the next Skycutter doesn't end up in Virginia. We have, instead, a Defence Office for Small Business Growth. Which is the kind of name you give a thing that you created for no purpose other than taking the piss out of it.

Trump is doing to the U.S. what he did to all his businesses: siphon out as much cash as he can and leave the debts to the investors, in this case, the U.S. taxpayer.

@hermahai I catch some of your threads occasionally, and love them. Truly interesting about a subject I know little. Thank you.

Sometimes I wonder if it's worth wasting so many hours of my personal daily time to create the threads I upload...

That decorative bee hotel from the garden center might actually be hurting the bees. Scott MacIvor, a researcher at the University of Toronto, set up 200 bee hotels across Toronto and monitored them for three years. What moved in: parasitic wasps, spiders, earwigs, ants, and in one case a mouse. Not villains, but also not bees. Native bees did use them, but the large clustered design made it easy for disease and parasites to spread between nests in a way that would never happen in nature, where nesting sites are scattered and isolated. Here's what most commercial bee hotels get wrong: Plastic tubes trap moisture and grow mold. Bamboo tubes are usually too large for most native bee species. Pine cones, bark, and moss, seen in virtually every decorative hotel, aren't used by bees and attract the wrong insects. Holes too short produce almost exclusively male offspring, skewing the population. No maintenance plan means disease and parasites accumulate year over year with no way to clean them out. The bigger problem: 70% of North American bee species nest in the ground. A bee hotel does nothing for them. What actually works: 🌿 Leave bare patches of undisturbed soil in a sunny spot 🪵 Leave dead wood and hollow stems standing 🌸 Plant native flowers that bloom in sequence spring through fall 🚫 Stop using pesticides The bees don't need a hotel. They need a habitat.

🇪🇺🔴What if your bank account vanished overnight because of something you wrote? No trial. No crime. Just a decree. That is what happened to author Jacques Baud, a former Swiss colonel and intelligence analyst. Today, he can't buy food or return home to Switzerland. Not because of a crime, but because of an EU decree. ❌ No credit cards ❌ No bank access ❌ No right to work ❌ Travel ban in the EU “All my credit cards were canceled; all my bank cards were blocked. That means there is no way to buy anything," he told AUF1. The EU can now financially execute dissenters with a new sanction power. Baud cannot even accept gifts from friends or family, including food or diapers for newborns, as these are now considered criminal offenses. These same sanctions may be coming for dissidents across Europe in the coming years. “What happens to me can happen to anyone tomorrow because there is no rule of law here. I have not committed a crime or violated any law, yet the sanctions were still imposed.” Why were these sanctions issued? The unelected Council of the EU accused Baud of "implementing or supporting actions or policies attributable to the Government of the Russian Federation which undermine or threaten stability or security in a third country (Ukraine) by engaging in the use of information manipulation and interference." “I have not been allowed to travel within the EU since mid-December 2025," said Baud. No criminal offense was alleged, and no judicial process was initiated. He was simply punished by decree. Since mid-December, he has been unable to go shopping and has survived only on food given to him by friends—an act that likely puts those friends in criminal jeopardy. Baud notes that even if he had engaged in propaganda — which he denies — there is "no law against propaganda." He maintains that he has no contact with Russia, has never received money from the Kremlin, and does not support Russian propaganda. Baud's case is a worrying sign of where the EU is headed.

Norwich has lost forty-six per cent of the businesses inside a 500-metre radius of its town centre. You'd have called that a recession statistic once upon a time, but it's actually something larger, on the order of a city's economic memory being erased in real time. Every one of those shutters is somebody's name above a door, somebody's lease, and somebody's last roll of the dice. The British Retail Consortium has now told the Treasury that the National Insurance increase will cost the retail sector £2.3 billion a year. Ministers were warned this would happen. They were warned by people who have actually run shops, employed people, made payroll. They went ahead anyway, because the Treasury model said it would raise revenue, and the Treasury model does not contain a column for the baker on Magdalen Street. The country we used to be - that country that built all this up - was the country that took small commerce seriously, the country that knew that that's where it all starts. And small business is not charity; it's the basic unit of an economy that belongs to its people. We are losing that, and we are losing it on purpose.

Solar panels are coated with forever chemicals that when shattered (like we saw in storm Darragh, storm Eunice and storm Arwen) can cause soil degradation that will last decades, maybe longer. Hence ‘forever chemicals’. The suicidal pursuit of Net Zero has nothing to do with the environment, in fact it destroys it more. It’s about money, control, virtue signalling, and of course, making more excuses as to why we shouldn’t/can’t farm, travel, or keep our gorgeous green belts untouched and thriving.

Muslims are now massacring Christians in Congo. Hundreds of casualties were reported. Where is the Western media? Please keep the persecuted Christians in Asia and Africa in your prayers.

After a HUGE public backlash, Labour is claiming that Digital ID is not going to be mandatory. Let me be absolutely clear. This is a total LIE! Labour are deceitfully bringing it in through the back door and we must NOT comply. They *DO NOT* have a mandate for this. The Together Declaration are holding rallies on 25th April in London, Edinburgh, Cardiff, and Belfast to send this vile Labour govt a message. "SCRAP DIGITAL ID" I will be speaking at the event in London, so hopefully I will see you all there! Details in the thread, please share 🙏👍

Dear Parents: this is false. 🚫 You already have the ability to protect your children online. YOU control their access to devices and WiFi. YOU are not required to allow your child access to social media. If you do choose to do that, YOU have tools available to control app downloads, websites they can access, screen time, content restrictions, and much more. The biggest question you should be asking: WHY does the government want you to feel powerless? WHY do they want you to look to them to protect your children? Spoiler: the data they will collect from your children, you, and every other citizen, is so valuable to Big Tech and the government, they need you to believe their lies.

"In India, the government linked people's food rations, pensions, and even hospital access to a digital ID system." "Criminal networks learned how to hack and manipulate biometric data. When fingerprints didn't match, or when hackers swapped someone's identity, people were locked out of survival." "Entire families were denied food. In just one state, at least two dozen people starved to death after being cut off from rations." "Once everything you need to live—food, money, medicine—is tied to a single ID, all it takes is an error, or a criminal, to cut you off."

A zoo in Belgium turned its parking lot into one of the largest solar power plants in the world. Pairi Daiza, voted Europe's best zoo, covered 80% of its 7,000 parking spaces with 62,750 solar panels. The installation produces 20 megawatts of peak power, which is more than the entire zoo consumes. The surplus charges electric vehicles at onsite stations and sells the rest back to the grid. It's the largest solar carport in the world, and it was built on land that was already paved, over cars that were already there. Nobody had to choose between wilderness and energy production. Covering all existing US parking lots with solar panels could generate 1.7 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity, which would power half the country. Why aren't we funding this?
