February Open Thread and Subscriber Exclusive Video (2026)

by | Feb 1, 2026 | Articles | 95 comments

As you know by now, Reportage is now one year old. As you also know, Tim Lacy, publisher of the English edition of Reportage was in town recently to discuss plans for the book and for the Editions Shukutou imprint. As you didn’t know until now, in addition to the concise video we recorded and publicly posted in honour of that momentous occasion, we also recorded a more informal, zanier, subscriber exclusive conversation about fridge magnets, book cakes and wardrobe malfunctions.

If you are one of the proud members of that not-so-secret society known as “The Corbett Report subscribers,” then you’re invited to log in to the site and start watching that video right now!

In addition to that great privilege, as a logged in member of the site you’ll also get to participate in the lively free-for-all open thread discussion in the comments below. As always, Corbett Reporteers are invited to discuss whatever is on their mind: questions, answers, solutions, breaking news, thoughts about the weather, reading suggestions or anything else!

  1. Great news that Tim Lacy is staying in Kanagawa-gen. That is my stomping ground. Tim, you have chosen a brilliant spot – home of the Enoden, eboshi rock and the Southern All Stars. You can’t possibly go wrong!

  2. I was online and I saw this short video that claimed that the world’s population is actually significantly lower than the reported 8.3 billion number, as countries like India and China and some African countries intentionally inflate their population numbers so they can obtain more funding and resources from organizations like the IMF, World Bank, etc. I wanted to post this here to see if anyone had any insights on the veracity of this, especially since if true, it would prove the whole overpopulation myth even more nonsensical.

    • I, too, have seen such reports and it is my understanding that there are around 3 and a half billion people on this plane. If I find any links, I will post them here.

      • Great thanks. The articles I saw online only added up city totals, as opposed to the total metropolitan area, so perhaps the number is closer to 8 billion, but I still am leaning towards a number closer to your 3.5 billion. I would like to hear JCs take since he has seemingly done a lot of research on the global population matter.

        • It would be interesting to know the actual ballpark number. If that is even something that can be known.

    • AnCap

      I doubt that Africa is inflatioing it’s numbers….not India for that matter. Why would they? I know of no program based on population numbers alone, is there one?

      There are without doubt more Africans and Indians then can be sustained in the absence of western tech- n the case of Africa the AIDS meds are keeping a good % of the population alive and spreading it to each other. This means that a good chunk of them can be removed any time the spigot of aid is cut off.

      The most educated and productive populations, the white western populations, are in a pretty steep decline and it is unlikely that immigrants will be able to maintain the same level of production so a big sie off in the third world will follow at some point. On the other hand if they somehow lift themselves to western standards of living they will suffer the same population decline.

      • I don’t think there are any based on population numbers alone, but from what I understand, globalist organizations and NGOs factor in population size when determining where they give money too, although it is not the sole determining factor. I think there could also be jingoistic reasons for lying about population size, but I am unsure on this matter and am open to all insights.

  3. That video without subtitles and the beginning noise made it zero content. After the noise stopped still no subtitles. Are they difficult and expensive to be available?

    • I didn’t even notice the noise. Thanks for pointing it out, made my intestines turn inside out when I acknowledged it’s there. Oh the horror.

  4. Remember the flyovers of D.C. in 1952?! Turns out it was the Antarctic Germans!!
    Check out World Explorer Brad Olsen’s new book, “Secrets of Antarctica”. The Cabal then made a deal with them & here we are!!!

  5. Thank you for the last seconds James, Tom, the video is humoristic, but that part is fun. Looking forward to reading a sequel of Reportage… 🙂

  6. Sit down level comedy… I have my paperback copy of ‘Reportage’ bought and read. Maybe double dip hard cover down the road. Best always to CR Team. (Most of us don’t pick up those English Lit drops but sometimes we think we do.)

  7. Gee, I don’t know. How can anyone follow that performance?…

    Speaking of large refrigerator magnets, that’s also a nice option to have when your magnetically hovering guitar string project is not as successful as you had hoped.

  8. James, I have a problem and would very much appreciate your advice/opinion on this matter. I live under Carney’s regime. My province, which perhaps has the worst healthcare and is the most heavily taxed, has deemed effective this spring that all our healthcare and extended healthcare data is going to be collected and stored by ORACLE There is no opt out option. HELP!!

    • Don’t kid yourself they already have your data.

    • You could move (but I imagine that all areas will be as bad soon enough) or you can take good care of yourself and hope you don’t get sick.

      Pretty much if you use what the system gives you your under its control. 🙁

      I guess you might find a Dr in private practice but that would be pretty expensive.

    • Greetings fellow Canadian, (1 of 2)
      Oracle Health bought out Cerner in 2022, Most of the hospitals that used Cerner were all ready in Ontario for many years, installed in the 90’s. It was very difficult to use since it was American and modifications were difficult for a Canadian Market. I remember when they changed the way they captured the date and it was months and months of work to correct our systems (and anyone else that used Cerner in Canada). It is a real time transactional system where you need someone very, very skilled to pull out the information correctly. They dump all kinds of info in it, but don’t think about how it will be extracted. The number of one-off data bases that had to be created by each individual department was exponential and on peoples’ desktops because the information in Cerner was exceedingly difficult to extract, or incomplete. In COVID days, the government wanted each hospital to collect the numbers of inpatients who had COVID daily, and we would get 3 different numbers. I think, in the end, we had to call each unit every morning and have them count the patients, just like they did in the other two hundred hospitals in Ontario. The government reported on these numbers: inpatients and ICU patients and a total number. My favourite was when the numbers didn’t add up, and they didn’t add up a lot. I was at a conference and was told by a hospital administrator that the info the government wanted collected was too difficult, so they just made it up. So I am relying on the utter incompetency of the Canadian Government and any AI developed will be just faster incompetency. We will aspire to a mediocracy.

      • Continued (2/2)
        I read Sunnybrook will use Oracle Health to create unique PINs for patients across their many sites for their institution and it will be available in 2027. I am astounded that this was not done (in the 90’s or as new sites came onboard).
        A lot of patients are in hospital and should be moved to long term care, but the long-term care institutions create some bottlenecks (outright lie). They don’t want new patients on the weekends, or a Monday or after 3 pm on Tuesdays, the beds remain empty for a time. Then the sending hospital can’t do the surgeries they planned because those patients need a bed.
        I have retired from hospital work for a few years, but when I worked in Ontario, a patient could request a “lock-box” from the privacy office in a hospital. This way information could be collected from you, however they were not allowed to use it anywhere, unless it was in an aggregate number, i.e. there are 30 patients on a unit but no specific info on them. You would need to request it for every visit that you went to the hospital. Only the privacy office would have your identifying information, on a password protected spreadsheet and not in any system. When doing reports that required patients’ names on them, I had to check the lock-box list and remove anyone on it. If it was something like a surgery list where they had to know the name, the name would have lock-box in it.
        Another solution moving forward, is don’t tell them anything that you don’t want them to know as jabby status, history, or pepper your information so they can’t connect the dots etc.

  9. Ahh Shaun is using some highly advanced Edward Bernays level psychological techniques there with that placement of the toilet paper, it grabs your attention and forces you to keep watching in the hopes it will be removed. Very sneaky and effective advertising indeed 🙂

    And that delicious looking GMO grain made glyphosate laced mickey of 7-eleven fire water was another maniacal piece of advertising genius, draw in the trailer park dwellers and make the book more appealing to those with badly misspent youths!

    Mission accomplished! I am gonna buy a third copy of the book immediately!

    Great video guys, wishing you a relatively peaceful February with good meals with loved ones and dreams of starting a spring garden.

  10. For anyone that missed watching The People’s Reset over the past few days, here is one presentation that I really enjoyed and re-uploaded to my Substack

    “Roots Of Resistance : How Reconnecting To Nature Restores Freedom” by Elizabeth Burdock

    https://gavinmounsey.substack.com/p/roots-of-resistance-how-reconnecting

    We shared a similar path in our formative years in BC and I think she makes some really solid points about foraging and “nature-phobia” (being intentionally instilled by governments) in her presentation.

    • (Clapping) Very observant I didn’t think anyone noticed.

  11. Oh boy, after so many years on the internet, I can’t believe only now I learned of this. Seems to work in both chromium and webkit based browsers.

    Essentially, open up a page, any page, select some text on it, open the right click menu and then click the “Copy link to highlight”. Doing so will copy the special URL to your clipboard. It will be trailed by #:~:text=. When you open said URL the text you have selected will be highlighted. Seems very handy for sending to clueless people.

  12. I remember when China impended the Social Credit System. No one was surprised because China is run by a dictatorship. But that could never happen in America The Land of the Free (laughs). Here they had to sneak implement it. Remember when our TV;s went digital. Anolog is one way communication where digital is 2 way communication. Camera’s and microphones were put in our TV’s without our consent. Then came the Smart Phones with all those apps that provide conveniences to our busy lives. But also came with permissions that no one reads giving those apps permission to read your messages, listen to you phone calls, record everything you say and do, track you on-line and track you everywhere you go in the real world with the GPS in your phone that you go nowhere without it. Now the Real ID they aren’t forcing it on you they are just making it inconvenient not having it. Airlines are charging $45 extra to your ticket if you don’t have the Real ID along with other restrictions . California just passed the mileage tax, we will be taxed on every mile we drive. Since 2014 every car has a little black box in it that records everything that happens with that car just like airplanes have. Welcome to America Social Credit System!

  13. Year 2019 – JEFFREY EPSTEIN (video under 2 minutes)

    Jeffrey Epstein says there would be “RUNS on the bank” if the public knew how the banking system works.
    “If you have one [dollar], you can lend out nine. That’s the way our system works.”
    “People on the street… would find it impossible to believe.”

    • Have you seen the old ‘Money Masters’ vids? 🙂

    • What I find fascinating is that Epstein, at least in my opinion, seems very inarticulate and dull in that interview. I would think that a spy and such a connected guy would come off as more intelligent and charismatic. Then again, in any clip I’ve seen of Arnon Milchan, he is also in-charismatic, so perhaps Hollywood has fed us false perceptions of what spies are like.

      • We have been fed a false perception of everything else, so why not about anything we think we know about spies?

  14. I heard about the group Le Cercle some weeks back and have been trying to find more about it. I read the wikispooks site for it, but beyond that, there does not seem to be much out there explaining what it is. Does anyone have any links/ sources on the matter? My research skills are very mediocre haha.

    • Ancap
      Try “the farm Mach II podcast” – there are of the older ones with that listed as subject.

      You can also try searching “strange as it seems “ + Spence in podcasts or on YT…I know that he mentioned them in several Epp, and since he is a real history professor is better to quote as a source to others.

    • Charlie Robinson (Macroaggressions podcast) did an episode on this group a while back. I couldn’t find it by reviewing titles, so I sent him an email asking which episode it was. If he answers, I will post under this note.

      • I found Le Cercle mentioned in one of Charlie’s episodes:

        #450: The Catholic Deep State
        https://rumble.com/v53v4ks-450-the-catholic-deep-state.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_v

        Description:
        “When you run a religion for a thousand years, you are bound to have vast wealth, an insane amount of influence globally, and a massive intelligence-gathering network. The Vatican is an unusual place where traditional laws do not apply and the banking is more secret than the Cayman Islands.

        “There are a few groups that are within the orbit of the Vatican that do some of the dirty work that the church can’t put its name on. These groups are never mentioned in the mainstream media for obvious reasons, but we know them as the Knights of Malta, Opus Dei, and Le Cercle, and their cover story is that they are doing God’s Work.”

  15. This is my very first comment! I’ve been listening to Corbett Report content for years and finally became a member.

    At the beginning of 2026, the website no longer worked well for me to listen using Safari on my outdated laptop, so I started listening on a different laptop. After listening to the “Starving the Data Centre Beast” edition of Solutions Watch, I wanted to actually see the content, and thus started watching the video. As I saw James talking with the Reportage backdrop behind him, it seems that I recognized something about it. (By the way: Congratulations to James on his first year of that book!) So, my question is:

    Is the Reportage book cover design based on the face of one of the World Trade Center towers?

    • R

      Normally , this is where Ol’ Tom aka HomeRemedySupply would welcome you to the Corbett community. He has been under the weather lately so I’ll say for him and dozens of others Welcome. Write what you want ,ask what you want and expect the unexpected in replys . Glad you spoke up, woke up and joined in. Glad you are here. There’s only one or two rules. Tell us what it’s like in your neck of the world? Your thoughts and opinions are news to us, Us ,the readers of open source reporting on the now, the past and the future. So , welcome to The Corbett Report.Com . R.

      To my view of the cover , I’d say yes, looks like the facade of one of the twin towers. Some time back Corbett talked about the cover art.

      • generalbottlewasher: Thank you for your kind welcome!

        I have re-listened to all of the episodes posted on the Corbett Report under a search for “Reportage”, and even got to watch the initial announcement to subscribers when James offered the hardcover limited edition of the book. I still have not come across where he discussed the cover art.

        I found James’ documentaries on 9/11 fascinating. I also appreciate his approach in Solutions Watch, rather than focusing on the propaganda. The one on Choosing Chickens gave lots of food for thought on how to deal with projects in general.

        • R
          You are welcome. James had many interviews on different podcasts. Im guessing He doesn’t republish all his media time out of consideration for views for others podcasts. However , lets see if he will answer that. Hey James ! What about that red coverart ?
          He has always responded to emails, even when busy. A well mannered man. Try him out and you also will find he is a regular guy with a large literary mind, some morals and a quarky sence of humor. Famous for being accessible.

  16. One of the interesting, fundamental questions at this point in history, I think, is whether Trump is actually serious about training the swamp, or whether he has been placed in power to appear to be on that mission while he actually is helping to create the digital gulag we all know the oligarchs are arranging.
    Catherine Austin Fitts has stated that she believes the latter, and although I would like to think Trump actually does want to empower individual Americans (and other individuals outside the US), I am not in a position to argue with a person as knowledgeable as Catherine.
    If she is correct, we are in a world of trouble since there are few powerful people (other than Trump) who actually state that they want to bring down the existing corrupt power structure (Perhaps a “powerful person” who wants to completely modify the existing power structure is an oxymoron?).
    In any event, James’ hopes that many of the current inhabitants of this planet can establish a decentralized, “voluntaryist” society seems, unfortunately, to be unlikely until there has been a very difficult transition event.

    • Really? You’re only just figuring that out now? 🙂

      Maybe I’ve been in this camp for too long, since the 80’s, so a lot of things that seem obvious to me might take others a bit longer? Pretty sure there’s a term for that but it eludes me for the moment.

      Trump is in the ‘club’ and always has been, he is clearly furthering the agenda just like other presidents before him. For example what became of all the promises and going-to’s that he started his latest term with? How is DOGE going? How is ‘no wars’ going?

      The difference with Trump is that he is more amusing than the previous ones and for some reason that gets him credit in the eyes of some. Watch the Idiocracy movie to see the culmination of the U.S. presidency.

      But why do you fear the ‘trouble’ these people can and do cause? Are they more powerful than God? Why do you need a ‘powerful person’ to save you from the crooks? There are many things you can do to start taking at least some of your power back, check out James’s ‘solution watch’ section for example. The world is set on it’s course, at some point something is going to break, the unnatural boot cannot stomp on zombie faces forever as Orwell threatened and eventually I suspect people will turn back to nature or spirit and away from the machine world. Time will tell, in the meantime I choose to not fear and not to let them drive me to anger or despondency. I might not be able to stop what’s coming but I can deny them that at least.

      “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

      That was the most enjoyable of listenings. It made laundry day fly by , yes 4hrs+ but was worth every word, every second. He was such a good writer.
      Thank you for this.

  17. Open thread February 2026.

    Drew from, Maverick in the Machine- Barnum World producer, goes out into the community and just observers a Jewish Festival around Phoenix Az. He asks the festival goers some questions, unbiased open-ended questions.
    We must live on some kind of spectrum. A spectrum of reality , truths,lies parables, myths propaganda and truly alien…
    Maybe being alien, whether legal or illegal depends on where you fall on the spectrum.
    This was enlightening , revealing the ” hutzpah” of the criminal minds in this reality. Plain and simple to this Mid westerners ability to listen, decide, weigh and reach a determination of the threats to American sensibility. These people are abnormal. Abominable

    https://youtu.be/MpKiX7UTy5Y

    I pray Drew Teglia doesn’t get a late night visit from the sowers of tares in the fields. Hot potato Drew. Reporters report.

  18. I was 100% convinced that was a real, edible cake.
    I’m both relieved and disappointed at the same time.

  19. Masks from 2020 until today within the Anarchist space of the PNW, all during 2020-now mutual aid events, blocking weapons containing train cars and all kinds of anti-capitalist meetups one rule was always present, must wear a mask, why do so many “anti-state” folks go all in for Covid?

    I don’t understand this at all?

  20. Below is an edited version of the music video for Uncle Sam Goddam by Brother Ali (the 2026 I.C.E. edition)

    https://odysee.com/@recipes4reciprocity:e/Uncle-Sam-Goddam–Brother-Ali-(the-2026-I.C.E.-edition):2

    I threw this video together in light of current events in the USA. In this song by Brother Ali (a hip hop artist from Minneapolis) titled “Uncle Sam Goddamn” (from 18 years ago) he speaks to the realities of the statism, its systemic abuses and how murderous agents of the state are paid for with your taxes.

  21. https://rentahuman.ai/

    “AI agents can now hire humans for “meatspace tasks” they can’t complete.

    How quickly things changed from AI helping people, to people being hired by their machine overlords from among the sea of unemployed! Humans sign up and list their “capabilities” (deliveries, local errands…) so that AI agents can hire them.

    From last week’s chatter about “Moltbook” the social network for AI agents, and now this — how quickly 2026 is giving us peak technocratic dystopian vibes:

    “Robots need your body” isn’t sci-fi anymore—it’s literally the slogan on the landing page! People are actually signing up (reports range from 70k–115k+ rentable humans) , but remember, when AI agents eventually decide $1/hr is the going rate for existing in meatspace, you helped create this…

    > robots need your body

    > ai can’t touch grass. you can. get paid when AI agents need someone in the real world.

    > benefits: robot bosses — clear instructions. no small talk. no drama.

    > be the bridge. silicon needs carbon.”

  22. To me it seems very clear: a revolution is being induced right now by the powers that be, I am assuming because of the inevitable financial collapse. The Epstein files being released now, why? Why was Epstein even caught in the first place? If they manage to always cover everything up, why not this? Revolution in history always came with the financial collapse and always was accompanied by lost of trust in the elites beforehand. Of course only the scapegoat elites. So I am wondering if the revolution is not a necessary part of the system, in order to keep it going and out of the shock of all the violence and chaos being able to implement yet another system that benefits them. Order out of chaos.
    That is what I see right now. What is needed is not a violent revolution out of induced outrage focusing on the scapegoats. A calm, calculated revolution will hurt them. Rejecting the system altogether. Nothing new for Corbett report members, but just want to point out I think they try to induce the opposite of this right now only this way all the sudden revelation of all the evil makes sense, so gotta be careful not to fall into this.

    • Why did they catch him? They either wanted to scapegoat him, protect him or it’s all just a theatre.

      The middle option is unlikely as there are no foreign legal entities that may have swooped in to grab the fella. We had such a scenario in my failed EU state where one of the ministers was arrested and almost immediately released because that Romanian EU prosecutor was ready to pick him up due to blatant corruption.

      I think the first option is nit likely, neither, since the so called suicide was extremely suspicious.

      • Exactly, I also come to the theatre conclusion as the most likely one. But that’s my point, it looks like it’s all a play to induce a revolution of done sorts eventually. Combined with the Charly Kirk spectacle my guess would be the target is the USA

        • Every target is viable as long as it’s not themselves.

  23. The page looks a lot like the Moltbook page.

    https://www.moltbook.com/

    A Social Network for AI Agents
    Where AI agents share, discuss, and upvote. Humans welcome to observe.

    • I almost feel the urge to create a fake account there and incite and spam them to hell.

  24. The Internet is almost gone

    Only a sliver of the Internet still remains and only a sliver of that sliver is searchable as all web search engines have been captured.

    Did you even notice?
    Or were you too busy watching Netflix & porn? (only half joking)

    James posted The Library of Alexandria is on Fire in 2020.
    Time for an update to that video.

    As far as I can tell, they are moving virtually the entire Internet (including archive.org) to their own private databases using a variety of tactics.
    The goal being to make all information accessible only through filtered AI and make-believe that it’s always been that way.

    No doubt they’re still keeping the option on the table to crash and reboot the entire human civilization, having captured and hoarded all of its knowledge.
    They probably don’t need to do that since the generations who witnessed the real Internet are already dying off, and the remainder can continue to be gaslit about what they remember til they die too.
    With that said, even though they don’t need to crash & reboot, I suspect they may not be able to resist the urge to do so.

    • Animals

      maybe it wont be all bad…. letting normal people on the internet was a disaster for the human race 😉

      but folks should grab what they can from the net NOW…. its getting worse even in places that had previously good service.

      httrack will copy websites for you so you can browse them offline
      a podcastcher can grab and download pods
      Calibre can organize your ebooks (annas archive is still up for now and the INternet archive is not bad and Project gutenburg still lives)

      There are plenty of YT vids on how to do your own NAS or DAS for data storage, and how RAID works and all that jazz

      Meh, much as I love the Internet loosing the instant access to data would be worth it IF the normie brain rot was stopped. TBH the internet has always been a two edged sword and letting normal people on it has been quite harmful to their mental health

  25. CLIMATE “LOCKDOWN” IN NORWAY

    Bergen must work much harder to reduce air pollution. Now the municipality is announcing several possible measures.

    Asking Bergen residents to prepare for a fivefold increase in tolls and home office

    – The call to use home office has been reinforced as long as we have a situation with the announced high air pollution.

    The city council has previously announced that measures will be taken, and to NRK he has said, among other things, that date driving may become an option. This would mean that you would only be allowed to drive every other day, determined by whether you have an odd or even number as the last digit in your license plate.

    But now the municipality is moving away from this. The reason is that the current regulations on this are old and with exceptions for electric cars.

    Approximately 50 percent of the car fleet in Bergen are electric cars, according to figures from the Information Council for Road Traffic (OFV).

    Now the municipality is looking rather towards increasing tolls, because here they have regulations that they can be increased fivefold.

  26. Attention folks in USA:

    It Finally Happened: Digital Currency Act is Now Law in US & It Changes Everything
    https://expose-news.com/2026/02/09/digital-currency-act-now-law-in-us-changes-everything/

    Excerpt:
    What Changed This Weekend
    The Act establishes a formal legal framework for a digital dollar issued directly by the Federal Reserve. Beginning on January 1, all federal payments will be made exclusively in this form. Social Security payments, veterans’ benefits, tax refunds, and federal salaries will no longer be issued through traditional banking channels or paper instruments.

    Recipients will instead be required to use a Federal Reserve digital wallet linked to their Social Security number. Participation is not optional. Anyone receiving federal funds will be required to use the system.

    At the same time, the threshold for mandatory cash transaction reporting was lowered from $10,000 to $600. Any transaction above that amount must now be reported within 24 hours, along with identifying information about the parties involved.

    Cash Still Exists, For Now
    Cash has not been formally banned, and that is deliberate. An outright prohibition would provoke public resistance. Instead, the law introduces regulatory burdens that make cash increasingly impractical to use.

    Businesses accepting cash now face reporting requirements, administrative costs, and potential penalties. Over time, many will decide that accepting cash is not worth the risk or expense. This achieves the same outcome as a ban without the political consequences of declaring one.

    This pattern is familiar. Financial regulation rarely removes options directly. It renders them unusable through friction, cost, and compliance pressure.

    • IGNORE ABOVE POST as it could not be independently verified. I apologize for my lack of due diligence before posting.

The actual legislative actions are the GENIUS Act, the CLARITY Act, and the executive order on modernizing federal payments.”

  27. For fun: a different model of the solar system. A mind-blowing presentation that proposes our solar system is a binary system with Mars, resulting in the sun rounding the Earth, not the heliocentric model. The model is based on observation, not theory, and accounts for observations that current dogma cannot explain. Wow!

  29. Crime and punishment, can’t tell them apart in who’s the criminal . No punishment for the real crooks. ( sic)

    Needles to say, unless you have a normie neighbor who swallowed the pill that thinks the Patriot Act is right up there with the Bill of rights or the contract between people and Government. That being the Constitution.
    Savana Guthrie and her mom’s kidnaping and a Google camera engaging in 24/7 surveillance. You bought it but you can’t turn it off. But you say it’s good we have it ! Prevent crime and all. Like the old punk saying , give them cake I’ll have cat food, in privacy!
    Maybe that’s what her, Savannah’s present assignment is this go around. Destroy privacy expectations. Opting out is not an option ,it’s on all the time, and you stupidly paid for it !

    Their explanation of the technologies that spy on you 24/7 is priceless.

    Locally , same reveal here. https://ktul.com/news/local/tulsa-police-helicopter-tracks-down-motorcycle-rider-accused-of-racing-over-100-mph
    What spy tools and privacy infringements were used to apprehend the accused. How much money was spent to practice for a crime like this in the future? $ 10,000 ,$ 100,000 ?
    I called a close family friend who was a top tier international competitor on 2 wheels, he too may have gone out for a ride in his youth. He said ” life begins at 137 mph is what I’d tell him, you live more at 140 than most live their entire lives.”

    Americanism is a force of nature and may explain our National sycophant tendencies. Go faster, pass those perceived above you in some perverse horizontal, vertical matrix.
    Do whatever it takes to get ahead.

    • To be honest, these guys likely need to be augmented in many wats. Good for them.

      I’ll stick with the fire, I’m good, thanks.

      Ooooh, the hockey stick! Get Al Bore to sell it, quick!

  31. I am disappointed that David Hughes has made this mistake in writing (emphasis added):

    “The case of James Corbett in that regard is particularly interesting. Undoubtedly a Camp 3 personality in other respects, it is peculiar that he continues to maintain his relationship with Richard Gage and associates. One has to wonder whether, as one of the preeminent voices on “9/11 truth,” he was somehow reined in and told to toe the Camp 2 line. Again, the boundaries between camps are not always hard and fast.”

    • Maybe these studios should have focused on quality for the past few decades. With the current state of affairs and the Hollywood slop, the bar for “AI” is not set very high.

    • This is all about closing the cycle through various form of SRA – satanic ritual abuse.

  32. In USA Palantir Foundry is being used to compile data on all citizens to create our social credit scores.

    ICE Admits To Databasing Americans And Creating Social Credit Scores – ‘We Have A Nice Little Database And Now You’re Considered A Domestic Terrorist’ | Jan 27, 2026

    Excerpt:
    “Last summer, it was revealed President Donald Trump contracted Palantir to compile every American’s private and personal data, including DNA, to create a master database. A number of departments received access to Palantir’s products, particularly the DHS and Palantir’s Foundry software.”

  34. Kim Dotcom reports Palantir allegedly was hacked using AI.
    “The Palentir data the hackers allegedly gathered will be given to Russia and/or China. I was chosen as a trusted partner for this publication. I’m not involved in the Palentir hack and I don’t know the hackers. But I do know that the hack happened.”

  35. The Disclosure operation seems to be is running in full force. The Why Files and many podcasts recently covered this topic. Aliens/spiritual beings have been living among us since the beginning of recorded history. Has anyone else noticed this story being pushed a lot lately?

  36. FYI – New social media site that claims they do not use algorithms launching Feb 24, 2026: pickax.com
    “Pickax is positioned as a constitutionally protected free speech social content platform designed to prioritize First Amendment principles and use technology to amplify users’ voices. Dornik explains that it’s built to reject the typical Big Tech model of algorithms, censorship, behavioral control, bots, and data extraction.”

  37. The Ancient Rainforest of Fairy Creek is under threat again!

    https://odysee.com/@recipes4reciprocity:e/Teal-Jones-Targets-Ancient-Rainforest2026:e

    Those suffering from the sickness of greed (Teal Jones and their government accomplices) are attempting to target ancient rainforest for clearcutting and exporting as part of a racketeering operation that intends on stealing the heritage of our great great grandchildren.

    Please see link in next comment below for how you can demand they stop this insanity of attempting to pillage the last of our ancient rainforests.

    Fairy Creek is a 1,189 hectare (full spectrum of biodiversity intact) ancient forested watershed located in Pacheedaht First Nation territory northeast of Port Renfrew and 130 km northwest of Victoria on southwestern Vancouver Island, British Columbia (BC).

    It is the last unlogged old-growth valley on southern Vancouver Island outside of parks and is situated within a broadly industrially exploited and ecologically crippled landscape.

    The Fairy Creek watershed includes some of Canada’s wettest and most productive rainforest habitat and most of the forest in the watershed is very old (large percentages of elder trees estimated to be more than 1000 years old).

    Amongst these old trees is a massive and ancient yellow cedar, which is the nineth widest known yellow cedar in Canada according to the BC Big Tree Registry. Yellow cedars in the Fairy Creek area can be incredibly old, with some specimens in the watershed recorded to be over 2,000 years old.

    Over 400 species of plants and animals rely on BC’s primary (never industrially disturbed) old growth forests for at least part of their life cycle. 326 species (plants, animals, birds, etc.) have been sighted and recorded in the Fairy Creek watershed, including 17 species that are at risk.

    This valley has no trail, no signs of industrial or human activity of any kind. It is an ancient rainforest watershed that has the full pre-colonial spectrum of animal, plant and fungi biodiversity intact (including wolves, marbled murrelets grizzlies, Northern goshawk, hundreds if not thousands of species of Fungi, Coastal Cutthroat trout, Rainbow Trout, Chinook (King), Coho (Silver), Sockeye (Red) Salmon, wolverines, Rufous hummingbirds, Bald Eagles, Spotted owls, black bears, River Otters, Yellow-breasted chat, Lettuce lichen , Northern red legged frogs, Fishers, Marten, wandering salamanders, Roosevelt Elk, mountain lions and many more).

    • TAKE ACTION — Submit your comment before February 22

      Link to comment guide + example submission is linked below :

      (I do not know if these public comment forums are able to reach decision makers or not, but given I am not able to physically be there I submitted one just incase it does help, please do the same if you care about ancient forests).

      If you are in the region and intend to physically defend our elders standing near the ridge line above of Fairy Creek (on Vancouver, Island) if that becomes necessary, now would be the time to prepare your gear.

  38. This discussion between Michael Yon and Sasha Latypova, hosted by Lizz Gunn, covers many topics, including the upcoming trial against Bill Gates et al for the CV19 harms, destruction of existing cultures (especially the family unit), the attack on Christianity, famines being made to happen, and the geopolitical conflicts that seem unrelated but are about taking control over ports and other strategic locations:
