Congressman @Lancegooden is RIGHT: stealing from our veterans is a disgrace to humanity.
But this isn’t just “missing money.” It’s a calculated $270 MILLION heist from charities meant for Gold Star families, wounded warriors, and veteran mental health.
The full memorandum lays it out.

Mark Eric Patrick was the trusted tax counsel who BUILT the donor-advised fund structure for James Dondero’s charitable legacy.
In 2021 the charities handed him total control.
He repaid that trust by orchestrating a multi-step corporate burglary to steal everything.
This is straight-up fiduciary betrayal.

Step 1: Patrick secretly created a new Delaware LLC and a generic Cayman GP (“hard to find or track or trace” his own words).
He moved the entire $269+ million fund into entities he alone controlled WITHOUT telling the veteran-serving charities.

Everyone’s heard whispers about Ivermectin & Fenbendazole as cancer adjuncts.
Let’s break down why independent doctors like Dr. William Makis, and survivor Joe Tippens, put these repurposed drugs under the microscope.

These compounds aren’t “miracle cures.” They’re metabolic disruptors: they interfere with how cancer cells make energy, replicate, and resist death.

📘 Ivermectin — discovered in the 1970s as an antiparasitic — does far more than kill worms.
It interferes with cancer’s survival software:
Blocks PI3K/AKT/mTOR
Inhibits WNT/β-catenin
Suppresses NF-κB
Reverses multidrug resistance

Here's a fascinating video that a guy took from his rooftop north of the WTC on 9/11. It's several videos spliced together so the time clock is not real time.
He used a camera with a super zoom lens. He has started filming after the 1st plane hit the South Tower.

1. 5:08 2nd plane hits the South Tower
2. 15:40 molten steel is falling from the NE corner of the South Tower. This is evidence of a thermitic reaction that has started prematurely.

The reaction is Iron Oxide + Aluminum yields Iron + Aluminum Oxide + a lot of Energy (heat)
What you are seeing is molten iron falling from the corner of the tower as this incendiary device is burning a slot through the width of the steel column to weaken it.

Microsoft Research and Salesforce analyzed 200,000+ AI conversations and found something the entire industry already suspected but nobody would say out loud.
every major model gets dramatically worse the longer you talk to it.
GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, Llama. all of them. no exceptions.

the paper calls it "lost in conversation."
and the mechanism is more specific than you'd expect.
it's not that the model "forgets." it's that it guesses too early, then refuses to let go.
when an llm makes a wrong assumption in turn 2 or 3, it anchors to that mistake. treats its own earlier output as ground truth. new information from you gets filtered through the lens of an error it already committed to.
by the end of the chat, it's not answering your question. it's defending its first guess.

here's the part that should bother you:
the researchers decomposed the performance drop into two components.
aptitude (the model's raw ability to solve the task) only dropped 16%.
but unreliability (the gap between best-case and worst-case output) increased by 112%.
translation: your chatbot can still do the work. it just becomes a coin flip whether it actually will on any given conversation.

🔥Urals crashes: Russia’s oil empire is fracturing fast. Urals crude has plunged below $40/barrel amid brutal US sanctions—triggering bankruptcies in producing regions and suffocating export revenues. Ukraine’s deep strikes are accelerating the breakdown.

🔥The collapse began: Urals dipping under $40, sparked a wave of bankruptcies among smaller 🇷🇺 oil firms in core regions. Tightening sanctions (Rosneft/Lukoil) have widened discounts to record levels, slashing revenues/rendering half of fields unprofitable without tax relief

The files contain devastating pleas from a woman who survived Epstein’s network and says she has spent years being gaslit, questioning her own lawyers, describing coercive settlements, deleted records, harassment, media smears, and silence.
If this is what “legal representation” looked like for Epstein network survivors, the public and survivors deserve answers.

The distressed communications appear to be from survivor Sarah Ransome, though her name is redacted.
She alleges she signed a settlement under duress while heavily medicated, after suicide attempts tied to trauma and legal pressure. She attaches what she says is evidence, but it’s not available to be seen in the DOJ’s release.
She also says she realized Epstein’s network had placed a “handler” in her life connected to Jes Staley’s circle at JPMorgan. She claims he posed as a romantic partner, followed her across borders, moved into her home, and worked to keep her from reporting or testifying about rape and trafficking. She said he also drove her to suicide, and she barely survived an attempt.
She alleges he used a false name, abandoned her when Epstein’s case broke and has since left JPMorgan. She asks where he is in multiple emails to attorneys.
(We found him working at a major pharmaceutical company.)
She says she wanted to go to trial, but her lawyers stopped it.
That demands scrutiny.

The Gates Foundation funded the International Peace Institute (IPI) to gather intelligence on the ground — Taliban back-channels, military assessments, corruption mapping, attack analysis.
