I think of OTC co's as money hungry relatives who always have a great reason as to why they have done nothing with the money you gave them last time and another great reason why they need more of your money. Don't be a sucker. Make them prove it to you before you give more $$

Interstellar@InterstellarUAP·
The Age of Disclosure Director Dan Farah: "Three non human beings approaching the car... he thought he's gonna have a freaking heart attack." An Air Force security guard and his partner were on duty at a nuclear weapons base when a UAP appeared overhead. A bright light from the craft hit their vehicle, freezing them in place. They blacked out. When the guard came to, their truck had been relocated to the bottom of a reservoir on the far side of the base. A spot you physically could not drive to. Hours had passed. His partner was still catatonic, gripping the wheel. Over the radio they heard colleagues searching for them. AFOSI and CIA arrived, separated the two men, interrogated them for hours, ran medical tests for radiation exposure, then ordered them never to speak to each other again. One partner was shipped overseas to Japan within days. The same pattern has been reported by personnel on other nuclear bases in different decades: UAP, light, blackout, vehicle relocation, joint AFOSI/CIA interrogation, and a separation order. Even more disturbing, the government investigators who began looking into non human intelligence soon experienced the same phenomena at home. Orbs appearing inside their houses in front of their wives. Straight up UFOs visible from their driveways. The researcher put it plainly: If Russia sends a spy to DC to spy on members of our Congress, our intelligence community spies on the Russian spy. Same logic here. Non human intelligent life started looking into them. This is the evidence the video presents. The pattern is consistent. The implications are massive.

@SyriusVII @loadedvivi4ever I think it points how how it would likely be handled. With utter disregard for everyday people. Don’t look up as a slogan to not pay attention to the danger in front of you. Politicians (maga) thinking they can gain more power from disaster. News casters laughing and talking stks

@loadedvivi4ever Actually hated everything about this fucking movie. From how helplessly pathetic all our attempts at preventing something like this would be, to the incompetence of the world leaders. Especially the the collapsing of all society and civilization as we knew it. Just hate it.

Remember what Leo said at the end of this film? "The thing is, we really did have everything, didn't we?" One of the most incredible and poignant final scenes you're likely to see – 🎬🎥📽️. Don't Look Up (2021)

The first born daughters have that warrior mentality following their fathers. This video breaks it down. Does this resemble the first born daughter in your family? I think it fits my sister pretty well, what about you?

I have two stacks on my desk. The left stack is financial disclosure forms from members of Congress. The right stack is waivers for members who filed their financial disclosures late. The right stack is always taller. On Wednesday morning, I watched a soldier get arrested on CNN. I am a Disclosure Analyst for the House Ethics Committee. I have held this position for eleven years. My job is to receive the forms, verify their completeness, and file them. I do not investigate. I do not flag. I do not refer. I file. I have a lanyard. The lanyard says ETHICS. The soldier's name is Gannon Ken Van Dyke. He is thirty-eight years old. He was stationed at Fort Bragg. He was Special Forces. In December, he created an account on a prediction market called Polymarket. On January 2nd, he bet $32,500 that the president of Venezuela would be removed from power. On January 3rd, he helped remove the president of Venezuela from power. He collected $409,881. He has been charged with five federal crimes. Commodities fraud. Wire fraud. Unlawful use of confidential government information. Theft of nonpublic government information. Unlawful monetary transaction. The Department of Justice called it "the first-ever insider trading prosecution on event contracts." I watched this on the television in our break room. Then I walked back to my desk and processed a late financial disclosure from a member of the House Financial Services Committee who purchased $250,000 in bank stocks eleven days before his subcommittee held a closed-door hearing on proposed capital reserve changes. The filing was forty-seven days late. The STOCK Act requires disclosure within forty-five days. The penalty for late filing is $200. I waived it. I waive most of them. In 2021, fifty-four members of Congress and senior staff violated the reporting rules. The fines were minimal. Most were waived. I have a form for the waiver. The form has a box that says "Reason." I write "administrative delay." In ethics, "administrative delay" means the member's office forgot and then remembered when a reporter called. My approval rate is one hundred percent. In any other field, that number would trigger an audit. In mine, it is called thoroughness. Let me show you what I processed this year. January. A senator on the Armed Services Committee sold defense contractor shares worth $1.2 million. Three days later, his committee received a classified briefing that the Iran campaign had exceeded its projected cost by 340%. The stock dropped 8%. He filed the disclosure sixty-one days late. I calculated the fine. $200. His chief of staff asked if it could be waived. He did not ask what the senator traded on. Nobody asks that. The form does not have a field for it. I waived the fine. The senator's portfolio returned 23.4% in 2025. The S&P 500 returned 16.8%. February. A representative on the Energy and Commerce Committee bought pharmaceutical stocks worth $400,000. Two weeks later, her committee advanced a bill that would extend patent exclusivity for the exact drug class she purchased. The stocks rose 14%. She filed on time. There was no fine. There was no investigation. There was nothing to investigate because buying stocks in companies regulated by your own committee is not illegal. It is legal. The STOCK Act made it legal by making it disclosed. In Congress, disclosed means legal. In my office, legal means filed. March. A member whose spouse manages a portfolio worth $9.2 million reported forty-three separate transactions in a single quarter. Twelve of them were in sectors directly affected by legislation the member co-sponsored. The timing on eight of those twelve was within a two-week window of committee action. I logged all forty-three. None were flagged. We do not flag. We file. I asked my supervisor once what would happen if I flagged a filing. She said we do not have a form for that. I never asked again. In 2020, I processed 847 disclosures. In 2023, 1,211. In 2025, 1,614. The number of enforcement actions in each of those years was zero. The numerator changes. The denominator does not. I want to tell you about the soldier again. He made $409,881. He tried to delete his Polymarket account by calling customer service and saying he lost access to his email. He moved his profits into a foreign cryptocurrency vault and then into a new brokerage account. He used his real identity. He placed thirteen bets. Every single one was connected to an operation he personally participated in. In my eleven years, I have processed disclosures from members of Congress who traded on: Pending FDA approvals they learned about in committee. Defense appropriations they voted on. Trade policy they negotiated. Pandemic response measures they drafted. Interest rate decisions they were briefed on before the public. None of them have been charged. None of them have been investigated by the Department of Justice. None of them have been referred to the SEC. The STOCK Act has produced zero prosecutions since it was signed on April 4th, 2012. Fourteen years. Five hundred and thirty-five members. $635 million in trades last year alone. Zero cases. My daughter asked me once what happens when someone breaks the rules. I told her we write it down. She asked what happens after that. I said it depends. She was nine. She is twenty now. It does not depend. Nothing happens after that. The soldier made $409,881 and faces decades in prison. Nancy Pelosi entered Congress in 1987 with a portfolio worth approximately $785,000. It is now worth $133.7 million. That is a return of 16,930%. The Dow Jones returned 2,300% over the same period. Professional fund managers who beat the market for three consecutive years are considered exceptional. She has beaten it for thirty-seven. If a hedge fund produced those returns, the SEC would subpoena the records on a Thursday. She produced them from a building with a chapel and a gift shop. She announced her retirement last year. No investigation was opened. No disclosure was flagged. Her filings were on time. In my office, on time means compliant. Compliant means closed. I want to tell you about the fine. $200. That is the maximum penalty for violating the STOCK Act's disclosure requirements. $200 for a member of Congress whose portfolio gained $4.7 million in a single quarter. I calculated what $200 represents as a percentage of $4.7 million. It is 0.004%. I could not find a comparison that made it meaningful. It is less than the price of the parking pass in the Rayburn garage. It is less than lunch at the members' dining room if you order the crab cakes, which I am told are excellent though I eat at my desk. Since 2012, thirty-one bills have been introduced to restrict congressional trading. I keep a list. The list is longer than the STOCK Act itself. On March 5th, 2026, a representative from Michigan introduced the thirty-second. He called it the "No Getting Rich in Congress Act." The bill would prohibit the President, Vice President, members of Congress, and their spouses from trading individual stocks, cryptocurrency, futures, and commodities while in office. The bill was referred to committee. The committee has not scheduled a hearing. The committee is chaired by a member whose spouse executed $2.1 million in trades last year. The bill will be reviewed. In my office, reviewed means read. Read means acknowledged. Acknowledged means a status has been assigned. A status is the absence of an action that has been given a name so it looks like one. The soldier used classified information to make $409,881 on a prediction market. He has been charged with five federal crimes. The Department of Justice announced the case on the same day I processed three disclosures from members who traded on committee knowledge worth a combined $3.8 million. The difference between the soldier and the members is not what they did. It is the building they did it in. He did it from Fort Bragg. They did it from the Capitol. He used a prediction market. They used the New York Stock Exchange. He bet on a military operation. They bet on the legislation they write. He did not write the law. They did. They wrote the STOCK Act. Then they funded its enforcement at zero dollars. Then they set its maximum penalty at $200. Then they gave my office the authority to waive it. Then they traded $635 million. The soldier flew to Caracas. He breached a compound. He put his body between a mission and a bullet. The people who ordered the operation were in a building with a credenza and sparkling water. They did not go to Caracas. They went to their brokerage accounts. The soldier made $409,881 and is now in federal custody. The people who knew what he was going to do before he did it made more and filed less. His prosecution is not a failure of the system. It is the system. One conviction per decade, at the lowest level, so the briefing slides can say enforcement exists. The $409,881 is not the crime. It is the cost of making $635 million look supervised. In my field, we call this self-regulation. The soldier's Polymarket account has been frozen. His military career is over. He will spend years in federal prison. My office will process every congressional disclosure filed this year. Every trade logged. Every $200 fine calculated and waived. The system is immaculate. Fourteen years. Zero prosecutions. $635 million a year. A 16,930% return. I have not leaked a document. I have not filed a complaint. I have not deviated from the process one single time. The process was written by the people whose forms I process. As long as the disclosures go up and the cases don't, my performance review says I am meeting expectations. My lanyard still says ETHICS. In eleven years, nobody has asked me to define the word.

@viva_libertdad @Real_Ames Nah that guy in orange wouldn’t shut the fuck up. This judge can reduce the sentence if the inmate comes back and apologizes. He has done it before

@Real_Ames That is not appropriate behavior from a judge. Yes, defendant was out of line, but there was one act of defiance and he sentenced him to nearly half a year in jail—while the giy was charged with possession. Not good. Self important jusges are the worst.

🚨 Courtroom comedy hour just dropped… and nobody told the defendant it wasn’t open mic night 🤦‍♂️ Judge: “You always want to talk.” Defendant: “Can I say something?” SIR… that’s literally the problem 😭 Man turned a 10-minute hearing into a 90+ day sentence like it was a talent show 💀 Moral of the story: sometimes the best thing you can say… is absolutely nothing.

Theo Von: What American is this helping? What guy who is trying to take care of his family, or a single mother who's a nurse trying to get to her kid's ballgame, what regular person is this helping? That's what our President is up to, and it's fucking baffling. It feels like he has just been compromised. It's dark
