In February 2026, I recorded a conversation I had with Peter Thiel and J D Vance's 'guru' Curtis Yarvin He revealed a lot of information which could destroy Trump, Vance & Thiel Not ONE person in the global press or US Democrats even wants to listen to it What hope is there with this attitude? 🤦‍♂️

🇺🇸 SpaceX may have helped Russia’s Kosmos-2612 get within 500m of ICEYE-X36, a satellite supporting Ukraine, on Oct 18. SpaceX issued a false collision alert that stopped ICEYE from maneuvering. Russia had similarly shadowed a US spy satellite in 2022, but at a much greater distance – around 70 km.

🇺🇸 Russia's Kosmos-2612 made maneuvers near ICEYE-X36 consistent with an orbital weapons operation. US arms control adviser Brian Hardesty made the statement at the UN First Committee in New York on Oct 21. To accuse Russia of something at such a desperate time for Trump! Scandalous.

The good news is that we are winning in court. The bad news is that we have to win every case. Trump only needs to subvert one election to break democracy.

The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

The importance of salmon might be a novel idea to the Lower 48, but every Alaskan understands. Fish is how we feed our families, drive our economy, and sustain our way of life. I’m the only candidate fighting for our fisheries, not the factory trawlers.

In 1 week the US and the world will be at a crossroads EVERY SINGLE VOTE IS CRUCIAL Voting for Trump's and his fascists will undoubtedly lead us to the worst and most dangerous period in human history, and Democracy will effectively be dead EVERYONE will suffer, except the Billionaire Nazis

Nice to see @theguardian.com are finally catching up after 6+ years 🤦‍♂️👇 "Imposition of SEZ status or equivalent… interference in local democracy" SEZ status = Network States / Enterprise Cities / Charter Cities like Thiel & co's dystopian democracy destroying Prospera project on Roatan, Honduras

Trump has only allowed the transfer of 24 patriot missiles to Ukraine over the last 3 months. That is only 2 interceptors a week. Rather than ending patriot deliveries, Trump is sending a tiny amount so people can't complain he stopped while 95% of Russia's missiles still get to hit their targets.

Reports indicate Putin wants NATO to return to 1997 borders and withdraw from the Baltics, Poland, and Finland among others. He knows damn well NATO will never agree to this. That's not his goal. He wants Trump to agree to this in some manner to eliminate US Article 5 support.
