FUN FACT: Not only does the state of Utah manage the largest cloud seeding program in the United States, it also manages the largest remote seeding program in the world. The government uses planes, drones, and at least 190 remote-controlled generating stations across the state to spray silver iodide and other chemicals in clouds to pull more moisture out of them.

Cloud seeding and geo-engineering used to be one of the most commonly mocked “tinfoil hat” theories. Now they openly admit they’re doing it and that it’s actually beneficial. Utah spent $200,000 on spraying silver iodide in the air in 2022. That grew to $16 million in 2025.

USAA. Founded by Army officers. Built to serve military families. Laid off almost 600 American employees in a single round while posting a record $7.9 billion profit. The Heritage Foundation flagged USAA for hiring H-1B workers through outsourcing firms like Tata and HCL. Patriotism is the brand. Outsourcing is the business model.

EXCLUSIVE: an insider at USAA provides footage of the company's recent Diwali event. It looks like a Tim and Eric skit. Remember, while USAA throws parties for Indians, it ignores American holidays and its veteran employees are committing suicide from stress and layoffs.

This guy caught a timelapse of a weird aerosol cloud or plasma blob. Whatever it is... its def not a normal cloud floating by. The weather engineers are cooking up ever increasing weird stuff.

💰 The $8 Billion Legal Black Hole: How Washington’s Lawfare Industry Bleeds the American Taxpayer Washington, D.C., has quietly birthed a shadow economy — one run not by lobbyists or bureaucrats alone, but by attorneys who litigate both sides of the same disputes, feeding off taxpayers in an endless cycle of lawsuits, settlements, and payoffs. Behind the veil of “accountability” and “regulation,” a vast legal infrastructure now consumes an estimated $8 – $10 billion every year—and delivers almost nothing tangible to the public in return. At the heart of this system is what insiders call weaponized lawfare—the strategic use of lawsuits to achieve political or ideological goals through the courts rather than Congress. Federal agencies like the EPA, HHS, and Interior churn out thousands of pages of dense regulations every year. Almost immediately, the same rules are challenged in court—sometimes by industry, often by well-funded nonprofit plaintiffs. But rather than fight to the end, the agencies typically settle. These “sue and settle” deals allow policy changes to be made behind closed doors, without public oversight or legislative approval. The process looks adversarial but is, in truth, a form of cooperative theater. Career government lawyers, NGO attorneys, and private firms wage symbolic battles where no one actually loses. The only real casualty is the taxpayer, who pays the salaries of government litigators, the fees of opposing counsel, and the “settlement reimbursements” that NGOs pocket under laws like the Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA). These statutes were designed to help small citizens seek justice against the government — but in practice, they’ve become revenue streams for multimillion-dollar activist corporations. The Department of Justice’s Civil Division alone burns through roughly $1.5 billion per year in litigation defense. Add another $2 billion in legal staffing across major agencies, then another $4–5 billion in Treasury settlement payouts from the Judgment Fund — a special account that replenishes automatically, without congressional approval or itemization. Every year, that one fund quietly transfers billions to law firms, NGOs, and plaintiffs who sued the government, often on procedural technicalities or policy disputes. A small cadre of recurring players dominates this lucrative cycle. Groups like Earthjustice, the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), the Center for Biological Diversity, and the ACLU file hundreds of cases each year, pull in tens of millions in legal-fee reimbursements, and parade the settlements as moral victories. Many of their senior lawyers previously worked for the agencies they now sue — and later return to those agencies once the political winds change. This revolving‑door dynamic ensures continuity regardless of administrations; the legal machine keeps grinding, immune to elections. Private law firms play their part too. Names like Covington & Burling, WilmerHale, and Latham & Watkins act as outside counsel for agencies one year and opposing counsel the next. Combined, these firms absorb upwards of $700 million annually from federal contracts, settlements, and legal monitoring agreements. By monopolizing institutional knowledge and staff pipelines, they shutter out smaller firms while turning governmental litigation into a boutique industry of insiders managing perpetual motion. The result is a perverse incentive structure. Every major case becomes a fundraising and staffing event for both sides: NGOs expand teams, agencies justify larger legal budgets, and private firms secure future retainers. With no cap on the Treasury’s payouts and almost zero public accounting of who receives how much, the system sustains itself indefinitely. Oversight is cosmetic; the financial opacity is deliberate. Even watchdog groups have struggled for decades to extract itemized lists of recipients from the Judgment Fund. The opportunity cost is staggering. The money spent each year on bureaucratic lawfare equals the entire operating budget of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or the total cost of America’s Mars exploration program—twice over. Redirected toward tangible needs, that $8 billion could rebuild 2,000 bridges, retrofit all public schools with clean water systems, or fund millions of trade apprenticeships. Instead, it evaporates in the capital’s legal bloodstream — producing neither justice nor infrastructure, only paperwork and precedent. Reform isn’t impossible but demands bold surgery. The Judgment Fund should require congressional approval for all large settlements. Every recipient of EAJA payments and fee-shifting awards should be listed publicly. “Sue and settle” arrangements should be barred without legislative review, and former agency lawyers must face long cooling-off periods before suing their old departments. These are not radical ideas; they’re the baseline of responsible governance. Until such reforms materialize, however, Washington’s legal‑industrial complex will keep humming. It’s a closed ecosystem — lawyers suing lawyers, funded by taxpayers, overseen by no one. The spectacle gives the illusion of civic action while masking a billion‑dollar drain on democracy itself: an endless courtroom carousel where process trumps progress, justice becomes a paycheck, and the rule of law is just another business model.

Important context to consider in the recent FDA allegation that Raw Farm’s raw cheese caused an e. Coli outbreak. -The FDA itself acknowledges no Raw Farm products from the relevant production period have tested positive for E. coli and no pathogens have been found in their cheese samples. -There have been zero complaints at the retail level. -Raw Farms refuses to voluntarily recall their products because no test has linked their product to the outbreak. They stand by their stringent standards for sanitation, regular testing and product safety. The Raw Farms spokesman doesn’t say it but I get the impression that he feels like something is not right and that something isn’t his cheese. What do you think?

Viktor Schauberger was an Austrian naturalist, inventor, forester, and philosopher born in 1885 and died in 1958. He's popularly known as the "Water Wizard" for his lifelong observations of water in nature—especially how it moves in rivers, streams, and vortices—and his belief that modern technology harms water's natural vitality. Schauberger argued that water is alive and has special properties when it flows in spiral, vortex-like patterns (inspired by how trout swim upstream effortlessly or how water swirls in mountain streams). He claimed straight pipes, dams, and chlorinated/treated water "kill" its energy, while natural spiraling movement revitalizes it, increases its oxygen content, cleanses it, and even generates subtle energies (what he called "implosion" rather than explosion-based tech). His ideas blend keen natural observation with unconventional (and often pseudoscientific) claims about energy, levitation devices (like the Repulsine), implosion turbines, and free energy from water vortices. Mainstream science largely dismisses many of his more extreme inventions (e.g., anti-gravity or over-unity energy claims), but his biomimicry approaches to flow dynamics and water treatment have influenced permaculture, alternative water vitalization products, and some ecological engineering concepts today.

1/🚨 25 years ago Congressman Dennis Kucinich named the prohibition of 'Chemtrails' and other 'exotic weapons systems' into law (H.R. 2977) 10 years ago the DNC put my 'Chemtrail Conspiracy' research on a joke list. Today it's on the front page of the Daily Mail. This is the full arc — and it's not over. 🧵👇

Here it is: This is what the Democrats mean when they claim that showing ID to vote will “block minorities from voting”: Not only did @DOGE confirm it—the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has re-confirmed it. The illegal alien industry: Illegal aliens were issued Social Security numbers by the Democrats via the Biden–Harris terrorist administration: • 270,425 in 2021 • 590,193 in 2022 • 964,163 in 2023 • 2,095,247 in 2024—on their way out the door With 1.4 million illegal aliens on Medicaid, and millions having received driver’s licenses, registered to vote, and already voted. DOGE / Antonio Gracias: “We found, by accident, that about 5 million people entered the country illegally and went through an automatic system that issued Social Security numbers. We tracked them and found they were on maximum benefit programs. We then checked the voter rolls, and in a handful of cooperative states, we found thousands of them—many of whom had already voted.”

Somebody should ask Ed if he knows that once Solar Panels go onto farmland they can NEVER be used again to grow food.... EVER This is a Representative from Michigan talking about their potato farms & what happens when solar leeches onto the fields & the heavy metal contamination. This applies to everywhere pushing these things 🤬. They are destroying our farmland

Columbia, Tennessee — Our Maury County Attorney tried to get in one last laugh at the taxpayers’ expense tonight, as he has announced his intentions to resign at month’s end; I have actually been relatively silent on the County Attorney outside of pointing out what I, and I think many others, perceive to be a conflict of interest in attempting to serve as the County Attorney and the Legal Counsel for Columbia Power & Water Systems. For some reason though, in this town, the lawyers and the elected officials equate my identifying a potential conflict of interest with labeling them a child molester. They will stomp, snort, and in the County Attorney’s case, even have a son who posts public smears about the individual who had the audacity to suggest that a lawyer, in this day and time, might just have a conflict; — the nerve. ——— Earlier today, I addressed my thoughts on same in response to questions concerning his resignation: Mr. Murphy served the County well for a number of years; but in my opinion, it creates a conflict of interest for a County Attorney, paid with taxpayer funds, to send letters out to County residents, on behalf of another municipal client of that attorney, threatening the use of Eminent Domain to take property rights away from those County residents. It should also be noted that, per Mr. Murphy's speech before the County Commission, he made the decision to resign based on what appeared to be his own concerns that the County would be issuing a resolution denouncing actions taken by his client, CPWS, in the threats to use Eminent Domain and/or the increase in water rates charged to the County residents to fund the Duck River Pipeline. I completely disagree that the citizens of Maury County are the "losers" in this development; they are entitled to an Attorney who is independent — and given the fact that the residents of the County and the City's utility provider are at odds, no matter who is right on it, it is a no-win situation for any lawyer to try and represent both of those sides. Again this is my opinion, and one where I would readily acknowledge that reasonable minds may disagree, but the web of conflicts in our local government, even if somehow well-intended and without ill intent, has eroded public confidence. Mr. Murphy should be thanked for his service - and the County should pursue a lawyer who is not held back from zealously advocating for its interests. That is my opinion on the matter.

@OGSpringtucky It’s fruit and nut and this just started last year. In 20 + years they’ve never eaten at the feeders. They even took the babies to them last year to teach them to eat from it. Not enough bugs & worms anymore for them to sustain themselves! 😞
