You have to read this story. This Delaware Corp got a contract which appears to be sole sourced though they only became a company in DE a few DAYS before the award.

It’d be good to get more on this award and the full justifications for the sole source on this from the DHS procurement office.
NEW: We’ve uncovered the first known example of taxpayer money flowing from DHS to businesses controlled by Kristi Noem’s allies and friends.

It’s part of a money trail that’s been shrouded in secrecy—and involves $220 million, a mysterious Delaware LLC & a horse named Gill.

A lot of people are going to walk away from the Ghislaine Maxwell coverage with the impression that our prison system isn’t punitive enough but I’d say it highlights how most everyone else is treated with *deliberate* cruelty.

I think it’s bc Border Patrol doesn’t investigate, they mostly drive around like hunters looking for prey. ICE has done some of that here, but—other than their stupid & disgusting Black Hawk Down raid on the apt bldg—that’s pretty much all CBP did here & it doesn’t translate to an urban setting…

Charlotte is a growing city that votes consistently Democrat with a Black mayor, many Black political leaders, and a majority non-white population. It's pretty obvious what is going on here!

Everything is linked. It's all interconnected. I'm nauseous again.

Thinking about @prisonculture.bsky.social talking about how it's really important to realize what we're up against. Everything that is taking place here and around the world now was carefully mapped and planned for years.

There's a lot we have not visualized in a useful way.

One of the big ones is the SHIFT in govt employment from "people who cure cancer" and "people who make sure your Social Security comes on time" and "people who care for veterans" to "people who kidnap your neighbors."

It's never a good sign when a national television host is priming the audience to believe "ephebophilia" isn't as big of a deal as other forms of child sex abuse because the president was friends with a child sex offender whose youngest known victim was actually 11 years old
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."
