Want to buy a truck? DENIED. Want to buy a gun? DENIED. Want to protest the government? ACCOUNT FROZEN. This is the future under a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC)—total government control over your money, your spending, and your life. Ban CBDC. FOREVER!

Nothing to see here.

This is horrifying and every American needs to hear this California resident exposes what’s really going on with Flock Cameras in America “I want to be clear what these cameras actually are, and I say that with somebody with 20 years of experience in IT. I've served as the chief network architect for Fortune 500 companies, I've designed data centers, and today I work on cloud infrastructure for one of the largest loan origination companies in the country. I'm not speculating on how this technology works. I've read their patents and I know how it works. Flock advertises these cameras as simple license plate readers. But their own patents tell a different story. They're AI-powered surveillance machines that capture every passing vehicle and person and transmit that data to a private corporate cloud, making it queryable by a multitude of state and federal agencies. The city of Corona does not control that database, and Corona residents have no public record rights against a private company's servers. Our daily movements are being harvested by a $7.5 billion corporation, that only answers to venture capital investors, not to us. Flock did not reach that valuation on their per-camera subscription fees. That math doesn't add up The city council should also understand who they're doing business with. Flock CEO was asked whether the company had any federal contracts. He said no. That was a lie. Public records revealed that Flock had been secretly running a pilot program giving the US Border Patrol access to local police camera data without the knowledge of the cities that paid for the cameras. Now consider who's behind the company and where your data flows. Flock integrates directly with Palantir, a data fusion platform, with a $30 million contract with ICE. Peter Thiel, the founder of Palantir, is also one of Flock's primary investors. These are not separate companies with separate agendas. They are connected actors that are building a connected infrastructure. Palantir's own CEO stated publicly just this month that his technology is being used as a political instrument, designed to reduce the political power of certain voters. And that's the ecosystem that our Corona cameras are feeding into. We're not anti-police at all. We're against mass surveillance of innocent residents by a company with a documented record of deception, built by investors with a stated political agenda. We're asking the City Council to start auditing the queries made against Flock's database, to disclose any data sharing agreements, and to take a vote to cancel the Flock safety contract” I looked more into this and he is 100% right Patents describe broader object detection, including tracking people and pedestrians, patents like US11416545B1. The system uses a centralized cloud database for nationwide queries Data goes to Flock’s private cloud, AWS-based, encrypted. Nationwide lookup is common, 75%+ of customers are enrolled enabling cross-jurisdictional searches. Residents have no direct public records access to the corporate servers. This creates a mass surveillance network feeding a private company’s infrastructure If you ask me this is laying the infrastructure for a mass surveillance network in America. We are being lied to. Cancel all contracts nationwide

A Louisiana resident named Marshawn didn’t hold back today and didn’t care who he offended with what he said. He’s right; this is MAGA’s last gasp for air. The courage of these residents to speak out gives me hope for our future. #DemsUnited

As punishment? These are the people’s elected representatives.

Democrats redrew two states, only after letting the voters decide. Republicans have redrawn, so far, six states, without a single vote from the public. Spare me your bullshit outrage, congressman.

So how the fuck can red states just takeaway the people's voices without a vote but then Virginia, who allowed people to vote, is being challenged?

We can’t let Iran have nukes because they’re run by maniacs who might use them. Meanwhile, in the US:

Everyone needs to watch @Justinjpearson's floor speech from the TN State House. "Today, you will take the only Black-majority district from us. But I want you to know: No matter what you do, no matter how much you try to break us & make us bend & quit — we will still be here."

No vote in Tennessee (+1 GOP) No vote in Florida (+4 GOP) No vote in Missouri (+1 GOP) No vote in North Carolina (+2 GOP) No vote in Texas (+5 GOP) Virginia’s voter-approved maps thrown out. MAGA has rigged the system.

the CATO Institute.. a libertarian think tank funded by the Koch brothers.. just published a study showing immigrants paid more in taxes than they received in benefits every single year from 1994 to 2023.. not a left-wing university.. not a Democratic PAC.. the Koch brothers' own research institute.. they reduced the deficit by $14.5 trillion over 30 years.. they earn less per hour but work at higher rates.. which means higher per capita income.. which means higher taxes paid.. the country spent 30 years being told immigrants were draining the system.. turns out they were funding it.. and the people who told you that knew the numbers the whole time

Huge thanks to @BinghamtonBASE for having me out to throw the first pitch on Saturday to my new pal Conner Griffin. Got too antsy and balked, but it was one hell of a time #Family
