When Corrupt Politicians Start Going To Jail,
Then We Can Start Trusting The Government Again.

Thursday MARCH 12, 2026

Howdy,
It’s be a while… spring is almost here…..

Over the past month or so it seems to have been all about:

WAR TRUMPRUCKISTAN population STUPID
Jared. The guy who can’t get a security clearance is running the country.
“Based on what Jared Kushner told me, I thought Iran would attack us.”
Not his intelligence agencies. His fucking son-in-law.

Trump: “Based on what Steve (Witkoff) and Jared (Kushner) and Pete (Hegseth) and others, Marco (Rubio), so involved, were telling me, that I thought they were going to attack us. I thought that they would, if we didn’t do this, at the time we did it, I thought they had it in mind to attack us.”

When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn’t become a king.
The palace becomes a circus. -Turkish Proverb

WE HAEN’T HAD ONE SINGLE DAY OF PEACE SINCE THIS RAPIST CRIMINAL WAS SWORN IN.
NEXT UP a distraction from the war distraction – OIL Prices that was a failed distraction from the Epstein files from the failed Tariffs which was a distraction from “Grab em’ by the pussy” distraction from January 6th coup and confirmed he speaks like an 8 year old. Half of America voted to put a psychotic madman in the Oval Office. Now the madman in the Oval Office is talking about taking over the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has it laced with an estimated 6,000 naval mines. What a f’ing disaster this idiot has created.

MONEY LAUNDERING
New Pentagon budget reports show Pete Hegseth spent $93 billion in one month, making it the highest monthly expense since 2008.
This budget report included spending $2 million on Alaskan King Crab.

The movies that cost less to make than Kristi Noem’s $220 million ad campaign:

Where is the federal investigation into her folks?

Last year we reported extensively on Elon Musk’s desire to break into the data pipes of government to bypass the federal bureaucracy. That approach had major consequences — one of which we reveal today: A DOGE bro allegedly made off with volumes upon volumes of highly sensitive Social Security data – the agency’s “crown jewels” – which he downloaded on a thumb drive and brought over to his new job. Me, @MerylKornfield @FedGirlWaPo report on this unprecedented breach: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/03/10/social-security-data-breach-doge-2/

THE REAL REASON WE GO TO WAR IS TRUMP DOESN’T WANT YOU TO KNOW

(1) Kelly Feuer, 12-years old, $1 million settlement paid in 1989, allegations of forced intercourse, Trump Tower, NY, NY.
(2) Charles Bacon, 11-years old, S3 million, allegations of oral and anal intercourse, 1994, Trump Tower, NY, NY.
(3) Rebecca Conway, 13-years old, intercourse and oral sex. Trump Vineyard Estates, Charlottesville, VA, 2012, $5 million settlement.
(4) Maria Olivera, 12-years old. Her family was paid $16 million to settle allegations of forcible intercourse occurring in Mar-a-Lago, Palm Beach, FL, 1993.
(5) Katie Johnson & she accused Trump of raping her at 13 years of http://age.In 2016 her lawyers filed a lawsuit against him & right before the Court date she received threats against her & her family’s life that made her drop it & disappear never being seen again!

Epstein was paid 25 million by Rothschild.
Ariane de Rothschild Married into family.
The #EpsteinFiles just exposed Ariane de Rothschild’s $25M payment to Epstein in 2015. While her bank was under DOJ investigation, she hired Epstein as a ‘fixer’ to secure a ‘soft landing.’ Why is the CEO of a Swiss bank untouchable while the names are being unmasked?
Ariane de Rothschild is the CEO of the Swiss bank Edmond de Rothschild…
Apparently that’s enough for no one to ask her any questions about her relationship with Epstein
https://x.com/drhossamsamy65/status/2026282114031706422
The Swiss Bank and the Bank of International Settlements is the head of the Rothschild criminal cartel banking system.

“In October 2008, Mandelson was the subject of much press speculation when it was reported that British-born Canadian financier Nathaniel Rothschild, 5th Baron Rothschild and the Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska had met Mandelson when staying on a yacht moored near Corfu, 741 in order to attend a party held by Rothschild. 75. After speculation that this might constitute a conflict of interest for Mandelson, 761 Rothschild wrote a letter to The Times newspaper alleging that another guest was Conservative Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne, who, he said, illicitly tried to solicit a donation from the Russian for his party.” https://x.com/Metermaid1935/status/2026356725230555145/photo/1

In February 2016, Jeffrey Epstein wrote an email to Peter Thiel, co-founder of PayPal and Palantir, with a sentence that should have made the front page of every newspaper in the Western world: “As you probably know, I represent the Rothschilds.” The sentence is in the Epstein Files. It is an official document of the United States Department of Justice. And the mainstream press treated it as it would a footnote about the weather in Bermuda.
The name “Rothschild” appears nearly 12,000 times across the 3.8 million pages released in January 2026. Twelve thousand times. By comparison, “Clinton” appears at a significantly lower frequency. But in the media ecosystem that Chomsky helped build, repeating the name Rothschild in an investigative context is automatically reclassified as conspiratorial delusion. Convenient, when yours is the most cited name in the largest child sex trafficking scandal in modern history.
Les Wexner, the billionaire founder of Victoria’s Secret and Epstein’s largest known benefactor, testified under oath before the House Oversight Committee on February 18, 2026. Asked about the credentials that led him to entrust Epstein with full power of attorney over his finances, he answered plainly: “His personal work for the Rothschild family in France.”
He added: “Specifically, I spoke to Élie de Rothschild. He represented their whole family.” Under oath. Before the United States Congress. Wexner’s attorney was caught whispering to his client on a hot mic: “I’ll fucking kill you if you answer another question with more than five words.” Desperation has recognizable symptoms.
The documents confirm what Wexner revealed. In October 2015, Southern Trust Company Inc., chaired by Epstein and based in the Virgin Islands, entered into a $25 million contract with Edmond de Rothschild Holding S.A. The subject: “risk analysis” and “application of certain algorithms.” Twenty-five million dollars for a convicted child sex offender to run algorithms for the wealthiest family in Europe. If this were a TV script, no studio would buy it for lack of plausibility.
Ariane de Rothschild, CEO of the Edmond de Rothschild Group since 2023, exchanged emails with Epstein dozens of times per month. The Wall Street Journal confirmed in 2023 that she met with him in person more than a dozen times after his conviction. The bank’s initial defense was to deny any contact. Later, they admitted the meetings took place “as part of her normal duties.” Normal duties apparently include regular meetings with convicted pedophiles.
In 2014, Epstein wrote to Ariane: “The coup in Ukraine should provide many opportunities.” Many. A financial manager convicted of child sexual exploitation discussing geopolitical opportunities with the heiress of a $236 billion banking empire. This should have been front-page news. It became editorial silence.
Across the Atlantic, WikiLeaks emails had already exposed the relationship between Hillary Clinton and Lynn Forester de Rothschild. In September 2010, Clinton, then Secretary of State, wrote to Lady de Rothschild apologizing for having pulled Tony Blair away from a private engagement with the Rothschilds in Aspen to attend Middle East negotiations.
The phrase is verbatim: “Let me know what penance I owe you.” The Secretary of State of the world’s greatest power asking penance of a private citizen. In January 2015, before Hillary announced her candidacy, Lynn was already drafting her economic policy in emails to aide Cheryl Mills: “We need to craft the economic message for Hillary.” Whoever runs American politics is not necessarily on the ballot.
Alan Dershowitz, Epstein’s former attorney and Harvard professor emeritus, declared publicly in 2019: “I was introduced to Epstein by Lady Lynn Rothschild. She introduced Epstein to Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew.” The connector between the pedophile and two of the most powerful men on the planet had a surname. And that surname appears 12,000 times in the files.
Cindy McCain, widow of Senator John McCain, summed up the situation with a candor rarely displayed by the political class: “We all knew.” They knew. And silence was the collective choice.
The pattern that emerges from the documents is structurally clear. Epstein operated as the Rothschild family’s financial representative. He used that position to build a network of relationships with billionaires, politicians, and academics. That network was the operational substrate of the largest documented child sex trafficking scheme in history. And when the survivors began to speak, the silencing machine operated with banking precision.
The Rothschilds, the Rockefellers, the Warburgs, the Schiffs. Century-old billionaire dynasties that thinkers from Carroll Quigley to Olavo de Carvalho identified as the de facto owners of the world. Dynasties that survive empires, world wars, and revolutions because they operate on a layer of power that precedes partisan politics. They create central banks, finance both sides of conflicts, install and topple governments with the ease of changing a tie.
The press that depended on these fortunes to exist learned, over two centuries, to treat any mention of these names as intellectual pathology. The Epstein Files delivered, across 3.8 million pages, the documentary confirmation of what these thinkers had identified for generations: there exists a layer of power that operates above governments, above the law, and that protects its own with the efficiency of those who simultaneously control both capital and narrative.
The United Nations, in February 2026, classified the Epstein operation as a “global criminal enterprise” with acts that may constitute crimes against humanity. Twelve thousand mentions of the name Rothschild in the documents. And the silence of the mainstream media is so deafening that it has itself become the greatest proof that the system works exactly as described.
Whoever controls the money controls the story. Whoever controls the story controls the silence. And the silence, in this case, has 12,000 names.

HEALTH

A long-running study from the University of Helsinki found that women who regularly engage in traditional “grandma hobbies” such as knitting, sewing, crocheting, and gardening tend to live up to eight years longer on average. These activities help calm the nervous system by lowering stress and promoting a meditative, focused state through repetitive movement. They also build confidence by creating a sense of purpose, routine, and visible accomplishment. Mentally, such hobbies keep the brain active, supporting memory, attention, and cognitive flexibility as women age. Together, these effects show that simple, creative pastimes can be deeply therapeutic, emotionally grounding, and beneficial for long-term health.

US Treasury Highlights Privacy Benefits of Crypto Mixers in Report to Congress
The US Department of the Treasury has informed lawmakers that certain cryptocurrency mixing tools offer genuine value for safeguarding user confidentiality in everyday transactions.
Submitted under the GENIUS Act framework, the department’s latest assessment to Congress recognizes that individuals and businesses engaging with public blockchains may turn to these services to shield sensitive details—such as personal net worth, corporate transfers, or charitable contributions—from public scrutiny.
As digital currencies gain traction for routine payments, the report notes, users increasingly seek ways to preserve spending discretion in an otherwise fully transparent ledger environment.
Mixing services function by pooling and redistributing assets in ways that break direct links between sender and receiver addresses.
The Treasury draws a clear line between centralized platforms, which already operate under money-services business rules and can share customer data when required, and decentralized alternatives that function without intermediaries.

AI

The paper is called “Artificial Hivemind.” Stanford researchers just exposed a weird side effect of AI that almost nobody is talking about. And the core finding is unsettling.
As language models get better, they also start sounding more and more the same.
Not just within a single model. Across different models.
Researchers built a dataset called INFINITY-CHAT with 26,000 real open-ended questions things like creative writing, brainstorming, opinions, and advice. Questions where there isn’t a single correct answer.
In theory, these prompts should produce huge diversity.
But the opposite happened.
Two patterns showed up:
1) Intra-model repetition
The same model keeps producing very similar answers across runs.
2) Inter-model homogeneity
Completely different models generate strikingly similar responses.
In other words:
Instead of thousands of unique perspectives…
We’re getting the same few ideas recycled over and over.
The authors call this the “Artificial Hivemind.”
It happens because most frontier models are trained on similar data, optimized with similar reward models, and aligned using similar human feedback.
So even when you ask something open-ended like:
• “Write a poem about time”
• “Suggest creative startup ideas”
• “Give life advice”
Many models converge toward the same phrasing, metaphors, and reasoning patterns.
The scary implication isn’t about AI quality.
It’s about culture.
If billions of people rely on the same systems for ideas, writing, brainstorming, and thinking…
AI might slowly compress the diversity of human thought.
Not because it’s trying to.
But because the models themselves are drifting toward the same answers.
That’s the real risk the paper highlights.
Not that AI becomes smarter than humans.
But that everyone starts thinking like the same machine.

A former Elon Musk DOGE engineer admitted he took millions of Americans’ Social Security numbers on a thumb drive to his new job. The SSA Inspector General is investigating this now.
Let me be clear: This isn’t “efficiency.” This is the largest theft of American identity data in history. 300 million of us. Names. SSNs. Birthdates. Addresses. Parents’ info. Bank details. Medical records. All copied to unsecured cloud servers by Musk’s 20-something engineers with zero security clearance. All handed to political operatives hunting “voter fraud.” All now walking out the door on USB sticks to private employers. Elon Musk didn’t “streamline government.” He built a data looting operation. Where’s the data now? Musk won’t say. The White House won’t say. The SSA still doesn’t know what was copied. Your identity. Your retirement. Your medical history. Your family’s safety. All compromised by a billionaire who treats your life like a video game save file.

Republicans want to cut Social Security’s earned benefits.
We have a better idea: Scrap the cap on Social Security contributions, so that billionaires like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Donald Trump pay in all year long!

Mostly True: You are shocked because the stats are bunk. Look at how much California teachers make (2nd highest in US) and then ask how overall spending could rank 41st? Answer: the 41st stat, like the $10.4k per student stat, has been helpfully “adjusted” to eliminate salary differences.

“Revenues generated from lottery have very little or no impact on overall education spending,” said Lucy Dadayan, a senior policy analyst at the Nelson A. Rockefeller Institute of Government, an Albany, New York, think tank. The reason: State legislatures often use the millions of dollars that come in from the lottery as an opportunity to reallocate other funds intended for schools from the state’s general revenue, making the overall education budget barely higher than it was before lottery money was added. “The state legislators added the funding in to the budget, and then they take it out,” said John O’Neil, communications director for the Virginia Education Association, an organization of more than 50,000 teachers and school professionals.

$25 million nationwide college admissions cheating scam

“This case is about the widening corruption of elite college admissions through the steady application of wealth combined with fraud,” Andrew Lelling, the U.S. attorney for the District of Massachusetts, said at a news conference. According to Lelling, the ringleader of the scam is William Singer, owner of a college counseling service called Key Worldwide Foundation, who accepted bribes totaling $25 million from parents between 2011 and 2018 “to guarantee their children’s admission to elite schools.”
“The parents are a catalog of wealth and privilege,” Lelling said. “They include, for example, the CEOs of private and public companies, successful securities and real estate investors, two well-known actresses, a famous fashion designer and the co-chairman of a global law firm.”
Also named as defendants in the indictment are Robert Zangrillo, founder and CEO of the private investment firm Dragon Global; Bill Glashan, a businessman and international private equity investor; and Gordon Caplan, a New York attorney.

That aircraft should also have 30 minutes of flight time with 1200lbs of max thrust and a flight ceiling of 15,000 feet, though JetPack fully admits that most of its customers won’t need that…
Cyberization means it’s not your daddy’s war anymore: Kurdish rebels are exploiting an app to befriend and get information from Turkish soldiers. Reminiscent of the dating apps used by Hamas recently to spy on Israeli soldiers.

How AI Will Rewire Us
Nicholas A. Christakis, Sterling Professor of Social and Natural Science at Yale and author of Blueprint: The Evolutionary Origins of a Good Society, believes AI is the only general purpose technology (GPT) that will fundamentally change our relations towards each other. If you look at any other GPT – the steam engine, electricity, the internet – these have changed everything around us except our “love, friendship, cooperation, and teaching” – what Christakis calls our evolutionary social suite. In this Atlantic piece, he explores how AI will be the first GPT to affect our social suite. Christakis noticed some peculiar things at his Yale lab. For one, when you include a cheerful bot who admits to occasional mistakes in a group assignment, the humans in the group work better together, vs. groups with bland robots. This holds true in larger experiments, with thousands of participants: “groups with mistake-prone bots consistently outperformed groups containing bots that did not make mistakes”. ~ Joly MacFie

John Gilmore  **Copyright seizure approaching** SpaCCS 2019 CFP (10+SIs): The 12th International Conference on Security, Privacy and Anonymity in Computation, Communication and Storage

Don’t submit your paper to this conference!  When researchers refuse to
supply their papers to the publishers who extort monopoly fees from
academic librarians, they have found the easiest way to tear down these
monopolies.

If you submit any paper to this conference, you will be forced
to assign your entire copyright in the paper to “Springer Nature
Switzerland AG”, now and forever, for their profit and your loss
and the public’s loss (see below).

Jun Feng is a program chair.  He should know to warn authors that
the whole conference is a scam on academic authors, which steals their
copyrights in order to extract large fees from academic libraries.  But
perhaps he did not mention this because he’s helping to run the scam.

I recommend publishing your work in Open Access conferences and journals in which (1) you are free to retain your copyright and control your
rights, and (2) the public is free to read your paper without paying
exhorbitant fees to a walled-garden publisher that prevents public
access to your scholarship.  See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_access

For example, the USENIX
Association runs many respected conferences and does Open Access
publication of their proceedings (https://www.usenix.org/).  The Public
Library of Science journals are also Open Access
(https://www.plos.org/).  Open access publishing increases your impact,
because all potential readers can actually read your paper.  Many
funders and academic institutions *require* that your work be published
with open access, because they have seen how the academic publishing
monopoly has damaged academic libraries (and science in general).

publishing, see:
