Lula vs. Bolsonaro: I was held in solitary confinement for 1,901 days for revealing the truth about the U.S. government's killings and espionage, including against Brazil and its industries. Out of power, Lula fought for my freedom. In power, Lula discussed my persecution with Pope Francis, who decided to meet with my family and offer help. After my release, Lula and I met in Rome to mourn the Holy Father's passing. Lula was kind to my children and asked for nothing in return. In contrast, Jair and Flávio Bolsonaro did nothing and said nothing. Yet without the ability to say no to Washington and Tel Aviv, there can be no domestic policy, only foreign instructions. Those orders are always the same: "Expand our theft of resources and wages, and keep your mouths shut about us murdering children." Sellouts will surrender everything in exchange for a cut, even their own tongues.

Kind of crazy that our miraculous planet, one modulated by the very flow of carbon between different reservoirs (the mantle, atmosphere, oceans, life, and the crust) is currently undergoing one of the most profound derangements of its carbon cycle in hundreds of millions of years

Obama on the midterms: “It is the most consequential election in history.” Democrats say this every election but when they get power they govern for Wall Street, the war machine, and Israel just like Republicans do. Insane how many Americans keep falling for it. There is no hope in a two-party system when both parties exist to serve capital and war, not people. The people have to make our own hope by rejecting this system and building a better one.

Very sobering article suggesting that climate change and associated wild fires are causing the collapse of many Western forests; one study suggests that by 2100, 40% of Western conifer forests will be replaced by shrubland (and poison oak). nytimes.com/2026/08/23/clima…

Given rising interest in the rapidly strengthening El Niño event in the tropical Pacific Ocean, I've created a one-page fact sheet succinctly describing what El Niño is, this year's (remarkable) forecast, and potential impacts from California to global scales. [Thread]

Don't surrender to the sheepdogs trying to stuff you back into the Democratic Party. America is sick of oligarchy, endless war, genocide & the duopoly enabling it all. Demand ranked choice voting, proportional rep, publicly funded elections, & parties not funded by billionaires!
Remember when AOC called the woman on the right a "predator" for running a third party campaign AGAINST the genocide and then endorsed the guy on the left who was actually PERPETRATING the genocide in Gaza? Good times.

Insane video capturing the devastating wildfires engulfing Spokane, Washington. We cannot keep living like this. If humanity wants to continue to exist on this planet we have to make decisions that put our communities over the endless greed of big oil companies.
The Wildfires in Spokane, Washington have burned entire neighborhoods to the ground, destroying over 600 homes and forcing 65,000 people to evacuate. 𝐖𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐠𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲, 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐨𝐢𝐥, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐫 𝐦𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐞.

CORRECTION: Dale 2048 🇺🇸. I have young children whom I would like to see grow up before I get assassinated. FWIW, throughout history, people who “red pill” the system tend to get assassinated: the Gracchi brothers, Abraham Lincoln, Mahatma Gandhi, Huey Long, JFK, MLK, etc. THEY—the billionaires and trillionaires who have purchased controlling stakes in Congress, the White House, the Supreme (and lower) Court(s), AND THE MEDIA—have a deeply vested interest in preventing the following: 1. Campaign finance reform so that every citizen’s vote actually counts as one vote, rather than preserving the current system whereby the top 1% pay top dollar to rig election outcomes, legislation, and regulation on their behalf AT OUR CHILDREN’S EXPENSE. 2. A single flat tax that treats every dollar of realized income the same. 3. No tax loopholes to favor certain activities and interests, or to promote certain behaviors. As far as I’m concerned, the desire for people to procreate with desirable partners and take adequate care of their families—both while alive and posthumously—is genetic. You don’t need to corrupt the tax code to promote these outcomes. Human beings will do these things regardless of whether there are tax “incentives” for them—which we know largely favor the rich. 4. Trust-busting to reduce the power of monopolies, duopolies, and monopsonies over our economy and promote inclusive innovation. 5. Mandating that the Fed target stability in the US dollar vs. a basket of commodities or a neutral reserve asset like gold, OR removing the Fed’s “maximum employment” mandate—the mandate that causes it to consistently justify debasing our currency and perpetuating the historic Cantillon effect that is destroying our society—if returning to a harder currency regime is too painful. These are the kinds of “radical” (read: common-sense) ideas that can get me killed if I’m not careful—hence waiting until 2048. “The Lord is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation.” —Exodus 15:2 Jesus Christ and I love you and your children. Change your attitude towards our corrupt political system for them before it’s too late. Reminder: The US has already fought a violent, bloody revolution and a violent, bloody civil war because The People have generally agreed with me and not with The Privileged Few. Unfortunately, history confirms that revolutions and wars are ALWAYS much worse for BOTH sides than everyone realizes at the outset. I believe God pulled me up from the bottom 0.001% of the K-shaped US society to bring glory to Him by helping prevent this tragic outcome—or by helping our wonderful nation heal after it. I pray every day that I’ll be successful in either mission. With love, —Skipper ❤️+🤍+💙=💜

A massive 6 inch hailstone, the size of a small melon, just fell on Italy’s central Adriatic coast.
⚠️ ATTENZIONE: Violenta grandinata con chicchi anche fino i 15 cm di diametro a Roseto degli Abruzzi (TE). Foto di "Tornado in Italia". Grandine di grosse dimensioni anche a Bellante a causa del passaggio della supercella nel Teramano. Seconda foto di "Meteo Abruzzo - segreto".

I would unironically vote for this guy for almost any office. He has multiple traits that are very valuable yet rare. More of him:
Growing up in Scandinavia, in every setting, there was ALWAYS one guy who was willing to die on the hill of the most meaningless principle :) Emil is the Norwegian fan who refuses to "row" because the "Vikings sailed across the Atlantic; they didn't row..." :)

“This absurd  civilization has become nothing but a cult of self-destruction. It is made up of people forced to do jobs they don’t like, told to buy things they don’t need, emit carbon from forests they never saw, and genocide people whom they’ve never met” From my book THE BIOLOGY OF COLLAPSE
