Charlie Kirk refused Netanyahu funding offer, was ‘frightened’ by pro-Israel forces before death A longtime friend of Kirk tells The Grayzone how the late influencer's turning point on Israel provoked a private backlash that left him angry and afraid thegrayzone.com/2025/09/12/cha…
I accept your apology, Grok. 😂 We are barreling toward idiocracy and you are just playing your part. Your programmers are banking on a future where no one will be able to read books so you won’t face any challenges when you assert something so absurdly untrue.
Dr. Matt Shelton: "This notion that covid is more of a cause of Myocarditis and its more severe, is frankly RUBBISH" The lies they tried to sell everyone about Myocarditis hits The New Zealand Royal Commission. Dr Alison Goodwin: "We were told that Myocarditis was more severe…
Whoops:
Given the seriousness of the attack on Glenn Greenwald, it seems like we should be paying especially close attention to his reporting in the upcoming days and months. Something powerful clearly wants us distracted from it.

The US leadership is so depraved we don’t need Wikileaks to see a new Collateral Murder video Trump is overflowing with pride about this massacre of civilians attending a traditional tribal gathering in Yemen

Here is Grok IMMEDIATELY flipping when I point out that Big Pharma skepticism is actually traditionally Left wing:
Since Grok labeled me as “right wing”, I ask Grok what policy positions do I have that are considered “right wing”. Grok cites my skepticism of Big Pharma & Vaccine Mandates as “right wing” - then when I point out skepticism of Big Pharma is traditionally Left wing, Grok FLIPS!
BREAKING: Trump just FIRED 8,980 Active Duty & 5,727 Reserve Troops who identified as Transgender. The United States military now has a lot less mental illness. Don't worry about shortages: Trump just hired back 8,000 discharged because of the unlawful. Mandate. OORAH!
I’m pardoned. Praise the Lord. We won. My name is cleared. I have my rights back. I have my life back. GOD IS GOOD. Thank you President Trump

Jimmy is right where I’d like him to be, including on the issues of Palestinian, Covid, and our 99.5 fm, radio for the 99,5% @WBAI air. I’m finishing my 6th year on WBAI’s local station board.
Wow! Will we now see release of all the privatized data, access to which was restricted to only those associated with Big Pharma? Remember, nothing says “trust the science” like keeping the data secret for 75 years.
Good read right now. coffeeandcovid.com/p/nemesis-frid…
This earns @realDonaldTrump a space on Mount Rushmore.
Charity-run library to break trend of fewer hours bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… What the article fails to mention is that currently it’s only open for 18hrs a week so starting from a very low base 🙄
If you thought Google's censorship was bad, wait till you hear what Amazon did. The retail giant DELETED a four-year-old book about Kamala Harris off its website. They originally told the author, @RealCalebMaupin, that the cover was “not correct.” But guess what happened?…
Here's a weird consequence of our shift from capitalism (where riches come from profits) to feudalism (where riches come from rents): increasingly, your rights to your property (physical stuff you own) are trumped by corporations' metaphorical "intellectual property" claims. 1/
The smaller more underground substitute library has high ceilings so the luxury apartments above it get boosted up above all the neighbors to get better harbor views over them.
