Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced that his platforms of Facebook, Instagram and Treads are going to change policies to permit free speech to reemerge on the social media networks.
According to the announcement, Zuckerberg admits his tech platforms have gone too far in their effort to control content, and censorship has been the outcome. While providing no apology for the intentional control mechanisms that have created censorship, Zuckerberg notes he has met with Donald Trump and sees a “new opportunity” to reset his social media control to allow free speech to return. WATCH:
Simultaneous to this announcement, Zuckerberg has offered Dana White a position on the board of directors. Apparently, White has accepted. Dana White is a strong supporter of President Trump and the position by Zuckerberg is clearly an effort to open a channel of communication with the Trump administration.
CALIFORNIA – Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Tuesday said the social media company is ending its fact-checking program and replacing it with a community-driven system similar to that of Elon Musk’s X.
Zuckerberg cited the outcome of the 2024 U.S. presidential election as underlying the decision, calling it a “cultural tipping point towards, once again, prioritizing speech.” Zuckerberg made the announcement in a video. “We’re going to get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with community notes similar to X, starting in the U.S.” (Read More)

President Trump announced that billionaire founder of DAMAC Properties, Hussain Sajwani, will be investing $20 billion in new U.S. datacenters that will be used to operate high speed artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Noting, “at least $20 billion over a very short period of time.” Trump suggested that number could double, and that the company’s founder was inspired by his election victory.
The data centers will be used for AI, and the initial phase will be in Texas, Arizona, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Ohio, Illinois, Michigan and Indiana. Mr Sajwani confirmed during the press remarks that it was the election of President Trump that cemented the idea to build the massive data centers.
This investment appears to align with the AI interests of Silicon Valley entrepreneurs who were big boosters in the final weeks of the campaign. Following the announcement President Trump took questions from the press pool. WATCH:
Hussain Sajwani, has long-standing ties to President Donald Trump. His business, DAMAC Properties, worked with the Trump Organization on a Trump golf course in Dubai. Mr Sajwani and Elon Musk joined President Trump for the New Year celebration in Mar-a-Lago.
Asked by a reporter whether he can assure the public that he will not use military or economic coercion to get control of Greenland and the Panama Canal, Trump flatly said “no.”
“No, I can’t assure you on either of those two. But I can say this. We need them for economic security,” Trump said.
Steve Witkoff, President-elect Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy, made a brief appearance alongside Trump and said that he is making “good progress” on a deal to release Israeli hostages.
Witkoff, who said he is “on the verge” of a deal, said he is likely to return to the region by Wednesday.
President-elect Donald Trump also said he will be “making major pardons” for defendants who have faced charges related to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.
RELATED CONTEXT – The database that is currently being scanned by the Palantir AI product is NSA level captures.
Real ID (Driver’s License and Passport pictures) combined with full spectrum social media (FB, Insta, Google, and every cell phone camera picture/selfie you take) that identifies your personage (plus more, like images from airports, point of sale, ATM machines, tolls, APLR captures, etc).
That combined massive meta-database is the library (govt and private sector combined) that is subsequently searched by the Palantir AI software to return results on facial recognition.
Everyone gets ID’d. Take a football stadium high-resolution picture and with AI assisting, 99% of the crowd is identified in moments with links to their electronic and digital fingerprints.
The issue I note is that a few faces are NOT identified during the search result. When queried, the “ghost walkers” appear to be classified identities that require escalating levels of authorization to open up the ID.
That’s the system we have now. It is being refined.
Even if it is used in the deportation operation, I still do not like this level of surveillance capability by government. I guess I’m just paranoid about what government can do with a system like this if they choose to weaponize it.

President Trump’s lawyers were allowed to view a preliminary draft of Jack Smith’s report from the documents case in Florida, under strict rules. After a review, the lawyers wrote to the DOJ demanding the political lawfare report not be released [PDF HERE].
Obviously, the report is a political hit job intended to target the transition process.
Because there are still two codefendants in the case, Judge Aileen Cannon has issued an injunction blocking the release of the report until after an appellate court can hear arguments.
FLORIDA – […] Cannon’s order, issued at the request of two Trump allies who were co-defendants in the classified documents case, bars the Justice Department from releasing the report or any portion of it until three days after a federal appeals court rules on the issue.
The order bars Garland, the Justice Department, Smith and “all of their officers, agents, and employees, and all persons acting in active concert or participation with such individuals” from “releasing, sharing, or transmitting the Final Report or any drafts of such Report outside the Department of Justice.”
Cannon’s order does not apply to Trump or his co-defendants, even though Smith contends they inappropriately revealed aspects of the report — which they have reviewed in recent days — in a Monday court filing. In that filing, Trump revealed Smith described him as “engaged in an unprecedented criminal effort,” as “the head of the criminal conspiracies” and said he harbored a “criminal design.” (read more)

The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) is the facilitation silo for the U.S government exploits through the Intelligence Community (IC). The newly appointed Chairman of that committee is Republican Tom Cotton (Sea Island attendee ’16).
Within an article noting Vice Chairman Mark Warner meeting with Director of National Intelligence (DNI) nominee Tulsi Gabbard, it is noted, “The pre-hearing questionnaire also has not been sent to Gabbard as of yet,” implying the SSCI is purposefully slow walking the nomination. The SSCI did not have any issues sending their pre-hearing questionnaire to CIA Director nominee, John Ratcliffe.
Following the meeting, Senator Mark Warner said, “I had questions going in. I have questions coming out.” The main issue appears to be Mrs Gabbard standing on support for Ukraine, which the Republicans and Democrats on the SSCI fully support.
After the Assad removal operation was successful, Tulsi Gabbards previous meeting with removed Syrian leader Bashir Assad, takes on a new dimension. The SSCI does not like that Gabbard was seemingly a previous supporter of Assad in Syria and the Intelligence Community doesn’t like having their interests challenged; particularly as it revolves around Ukraine.
Within the IC nominations, it is very important to pay attention to Senator Tom Cotton; this could be a moment when the masks of the collaboration between the SSCI and IC are revealed.
The CIA, NSA, DNI and U.S interventionist policies as carried out by the intel agencies are all maintained in status through the “oversight” of the SSCI. Both Mark Warner and Tom Cotton are part of the ‘Gang of Eight.’
As we have documented and noted for several years, the FBI background checks are part of the control mechanism that keeps the wrong kind of people out of the IC silos in order to maintain their operational intents. The FBI background check on Tulsi Gabbard has not yet been completed and submitted to the Senate Intel Committee.
WASHINGTON DC – […] Warner sat down with Gabbard, Trump’s pick for director of national intelligence, on Wednesday, a meeting that had been highly anticipated as part of her push to win Democratic support.
But Warner, who is expected to remain the top Democrat on the Intelligence panel in the new Congress, indicated that he remains concerned about her nomination, putting a dent in those hopes.
“I had questions going in. I have questions coming out,” Warner told reporters at the Capitol.
“This is an extraordinarily important job,” he continued. “A lot of this [is] also about protecting the independence of the intelligence community and making sure we continue to have the ability to share classified information with our allies.”
When asked if she is fit for the job, Warner noted that Monday was his first chance to ask Gabbard questions and that this is still the “beginning of the process.”
“I have a lot of questions,” he added.
It remains unclear when Gabbard’s confirmation hearing will take place. Warner and Democrats have pressed pause on the committee’s push to hold her hearing as early as next week and say they have not received her FBI background check, ethics disclosure or a pre-hearing questionnaire yet. (read more)
The pre-hearing questionnaire is being used as part of the justification to delay Tulsi Gabbard’s nomination. However, the pre-hearing questionnaire has not been sent to Gabbard by the committee. Interesting…

A massive California wildfire is consuming some of the most valuable property around Los Angeles. The Pacific Palisades fire is expanding rapidly due to high winds and dry conditions. Making matters worse, firefighters are having a problem with water shortages to fight the fire due to California environmental standards.
An ariel shot shows the extent of the fire last night, and the situation is rapidly worsening. Firefighters are now focused on rescue efforts.
CALIFORNIA – A state of emergency has been declared in Los Angeles after a huge wildfire swept through hillsides dotted with celebrity homes.
The fire forced the evacuation of 30,000 people, some of whom abandoned their cars and fled on foot to safety.
Nearly 3,000 acres of the Pacific Palisades area between the coastal towns of Santa Monica and Malibu had burned by the Palisades Fire, officials said. Fire officials said that several people were injured, some with burns to faces and hands.
A second blaze dubbed the Eaton Fire broke out some 30 miles inland near Pasadena and doubled in size to 400 acres in a few hours, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said.
California Governor Gavin Newsom, who was in Southern California to attend the naming of a national monument by US President Joe Biden, made a detour to the area to see “first hand the impact of these swirling winds and the embers”.
[…] Witnesses reported a number of homes on fire with flames nearly scorching their cars when people fled the hills of Topanga Canyon, as the fire spread from there down to the Pacific Ocean.
Firefighters in aircraft scooped water from the sea to drop it on the nearby flames. Flames engulfed homes and bulldozers cleared abandoned vehicles from roads so emergency vehicles could pass.
The fire burned some trees on the grounds of the Getty Villa, a museum loaded with priceless works of art, but the collection remained safe, the museum said.
Before the fire started, the National Weather Service had issued its highest alert for extreme fire conditions for much of Los Angeles County from Tuesday through Thursday, predicting wind gusts of 50 to 80 mph.
[…] Actor Steve Guttenberg told a local television station that friends of his were impeded from evacuating because others had abandoned their cars in the road.
“It’s really important for everybody to band together and don’t worry about your personal property. Just get out,” Guttenberg said. “Get your loved ones and get out. (read more)

QUESTION: You originally said that we should expect an increase in volcanic activity starting in 2019. I believe you said the Pacific Rim would start to become more active by 2025 on the West side. Do you have any update on that and the prospects of something leading to a volcanic winter? It is getting very cold up here in your former home.
ANSWER: The correlations of volcanic activity to sun activity suggest that we should peak in solar activity here with Solar War 25 in 2025 and begin to decline. I previously reported as follows:
“We are now in Solar Cycle 25 with peak sunspot activity expected in 2025. Solar Cycle 24 which ended in December 2019, was of average in length, at 11 years. However, it was the 4th-smallest intensity since regular record keeping began with Solar Cycle 1 in 1755. We’re now in Solar Cycle 25 and we are still in Solar Minimum conditions at this time. Solar Maximum is predicted to occur midway through this cycle which may come as soon as November 2024 but no later than March 2026, with this ideal peak reaching most likely by July 2025.
Right now, the solar wave is conforming more to our model than that of NASA. The Sun has become far more active than NASA has forecast or expected. NASA is beginning to worry that this Solar Cycle 25 could become the Strongest Cycle Since Records Began. Effectively, in terms of our model terminology, Solar Cycle 25 may be a Panic Cycle. In other words, we appear to be headed into the strongest cycle on record following the weakest cycle. That is high volatility in cycle terminology.”
So far, we have seen a dramatic rise in solar flares as we head into the peak of this Solar Wave 25, which our model still shows ideally should peak this summer. Solar Cycle 25 began in December 2019. If we are going to experience a similar event to the Sun falling into a Maunder-minimum-like (inactive) state (1645-1715), which created the mini-Ice Age, it does not appear to be this cycle. That becomes possible in Solar Cycle 26, which will probably begin from 2029 to 20230. This wave should have a sunspot range of 95 to 130 at the peak. The decline in population we see post-2032 appears to be possible compared to war and the solar minimum.
Solar Minimums appear to be taking place close to a 309.6-year cycle. There have been many studies on the impact of UV and gamma radiation during solar changes and events. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation, as are radio waves, infrared radiation, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and microwaves. Gamma rays can treat cancer, and astronomers study gamma-ray bursts.
I have also reported that our correlation models show that solar minimums correspond to increased volcanic activity. Volcanic winters take place during solar minimums. It seems that gamma rays may be why volcanoes erupt more during these periods. This certainly also reduces food production and increases disease, presumably because of a rise in malnutrition. However, since gamma rays are also used to treat cancer, there is at least a basis to warrant further investigation if the increase in gamma rays during solar minimums impacts certain susceptible people or those with particular DNA sequences. I warned back in 2018 that going into a solar minimum in 2019 would help to increase a commodity boom into 2020-2024.
The January 15, 2022 eruption had a Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) rating of at least a 5 maybe 6, roughly making that on par with historic eruptions like Mount Vesuvius in 79AD that buried Pompei and Mount St. Helens in 1980 that threw the equivalent of 10 years of pollution from cars into the atmosphere in minutes. The real big one on the West Coast seems to be due more around 2032-2048 time period. That may be the one that creates a real volcanic winter.
Such events can cause what is known as a Volcanic Winter by the ash blocking the sun. That is what has taken place many times throughout recorded history. They called the year 1816 – the year without a summer. This 19th-century disaster played out during 1816 when the weather in Europe and North America entered a volcanic winter with widespread crop failures resulting in famine followed by plague. The dust from the eruption of Mount Tambora, which had erupted in early April 1815, had shrouded the entire globe, blocking the sunlight. This sent the world into darkness, and 1816 did not have a normal summer. It even snowed in New York City in July.
Right now, we are starting to see increased volcanic activity on the East side of the Pacific Rim as it moves under the North American plate. That means we should expect to see an increase in volcanic activity and Solar Wave 25 peaks, and we begin to move into solar minimum once again. This activity is starting in the Aleutian Islands and off the West Coast of the United States.

President Joe Biden has invoked the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to prevent Donald Trump from permitting new oil and natural gas leases. Offshore drilling in federal waters along the East and West coasts of the US, eastern Gulf of Mexico, and portions of the northern Bering Sea in Alaska are now forbidden.
Biden boasted that this measure would protect 625 million acres of federal waters, but in reality, this is a last-ditch effort to prevent incoming President Donald Trump from reversing everything Biden did that made America dependent on foreign energy. “Joe Biden clearly wants high gas prices to be his legacy,” Karoline Leavitt, a spokesperson for Trump, posted on X.
This political stunt will cost American jobs and cause trouble for Trump, who has stated that energy independence is a top priority. “’Suspending leases in Alaska’s 1002 Area is in direct conflict with the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, through which Congress mandates an oil and gas leasing program be established on the non-wilderness Coastal Plain, and ordered at least two lease sales by 2024.,” Alaskan Senator Lisa Murkowski stated. “In addition, The Act specifically states that the purpose of the 1002 area of ANWR is oil and gas development. The oil and gas leasing program established by the Trump Administration meets the legal mandates required by Congress including imposing a framework with a range of environmental safeguards that are successfully guiding production elsewhere in northern Alaska.”
Utter pettiness as it is clear why the president waited until the final two weeks of his term to invoke this order. The 1953 Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA) prevents presidents from overturning such bans without congressional action. In 2019, during Trump’s first term, a federal judge declared that presidents may not reverse such bans. Trump believes he has the right to “unban it immediately” on “day one” in office, but the legalities of OSCLA remain unclear.
During his presidency, Biden nearly depleted America’s petroleum reserves. He begged foreign nations to increase their supply as he forced America to purchase that oil at a markup. The war in Ukraine only amplified the energy crisis as global demand skyrocketed. Yet he refused to back away from the climate change agenda even if that meant suffocating the American economy.
Biden can pander to his Agenda 2030 climate change supporters and vilify Trump further by claiming he does not care about the environment. Despite efforts continually failing, Biden still believes that the US can reach a net-zero greenhouse gas economy by 2050. Demand has not waned, and America must import oil if it cannot derive its own. Biden has spent his entire term undermining the American economy, beginning with the energy sector. He revoked the Keystone XL pipeline deal on day one, and at the eleventh hour, he is marking his exit with one last blow to American energy.
Are you keeping track of this new virus going around in China? Is is apparently in the Ukraine now too? Any updates? Could this be what the 9th of January was targeting? Disease and War cycle?
Kind Regards,
George
ANSWER: I am aware of this new virus. I went to see my doctor, who, when she asked me if I got vaccinated, I said NO! Her response was GOOD! She is actually from Sereavo, and oddly, she knew I looked familiar since I had advised the government there about the breakup of Yugoslavia. She believes COVID was created in a lab, and the whole problem with that is every virus will mutate since it is a lifeform and will seek to defeat whatever medicine we create to stop it. These people like Fauci are really dangerous, for they have no idea how such a gain-of-function experiment will evolve into the future. I like her because she grew up under Communism and is not about to take the government’s narrative without question.
She told me a new mysterious virus is now circulating, which is again respiratory and involves a soar throat. She said it is new, and they do not yet understand its nature. All I can say is that we need a lot more journalists to start opening their eyes to the fact that they have been part of this crime against humanity and deserve to go down with the fake news that they have written. Little by little, the truth started to surface. They keep attacking RFK as an anti-vaxer while taking money from Pfizer et al.

Hundreds of people took to the streets of Manhattan on New Year’s Day to demand an intifada revolution. The Palestinian Youth Movement, the Party for Socialism and Liberation and the People’s Forum forcibly continued the planned “protest” in the wake of two potential terrorist attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas. Why are we permitting pro-terrorist groups to take to the streets?
Free speech is one thing, but directly calling for violence on behalf of foreign nations is not permitted. If a right-wing organization held a “protest” of this nature, the media would swarm it bees to honey and deem it as extremist terrorism. Why is this (D)ifferent?
Aside from the obvious, we must look at who is funding the civil unrest. The Goldman Sachs Philanthropy Fund provided the Palestinian Youth Movement, the Party for Socialism and Liberation and the People’s Forum with $18 million in recent years. The group has a strong base at Columbia University and is responsible for numerous anti-Israel protests. People’s Forum co-executive director Manolo De Los Santos has called for the need to make “untenable for the politics of usual to take place in this country” and called for the university encampments to remain open as long as possible. He openly criticizes the Zionist rulers of Columbia University, and the group often holds pro-Marxist discussions to stir up unrest.
The People’s Forum reached out to U.S Senate Finance Committee chairman Ron Wyden (D., Ore.) and Ranking Member Mike Crapo (R., Idaho) to block the passage of H.R.6408 /S.4136 that would remove funded from any non-profits deemed to be terrorist organizations, claiming its origins were promoted by “anti-Palestinian bias.” The bill has yet to pass.
Goldman has been funding this organization for years. In 2018, they provided the group with $4,400,000 in funding after granting them $2,500,000 the year prior. The Chinese Communist Party has also been supporting this organization, but claims of foreign interference are silent. The New York Times reported that the People’s Forum is also funded by Neville Roy Singham, who has been linked to the Chinese Communist Party and its propaganda efforts.
“We will be here every single year for generation after generation until total liberation and return,” protesters shouted. America is being attacked from within. Foreign agencies have preyed upon the vulnerable youth and convinced them to march against their own country. There is a GLOBAL EFFORT to heighten civil unrest as other major cities also witnessed similar “protests.” The endgame is a push toward their dream of a Marxist utopia that requires toppling society as we know it.
Is it Time to expose every Teacher pushing Gender Identity, even putting in Litter Boxes for Kids who Think They are a Cat or Dog? This is NOT a conspiracy theory; it is REAL!!!! A Friend took a job in Gainsville Florida Public School and has now quit and is taking her family out of this College LEFT-WING town because they did put in litter boxes for children who think they are “furries” and are insane for such a person will NEVER hold down a real job going through life as a furry. I guess they would end up in prison since animals don’t pay taxes, and I doubt the IRS will entertain that excuse. A judge would order such a person to be forcefully taken to a mental hospital without release until cured.
