The UK has turned into the clown-car of EU politics and policy. Some other countries in the EU are sadly not that far behind. Like Germany.

The USA is turning into the Surveillance state China is. In fairness, so is the UK.

Looked into this, out of sheer curiosity.

The guy is literally a Salvadoran citizen. He is technically home. His family came illegally and stayed illegally for 14 years until he got caught by ICE in 2019 in a parking lot of a mall, with other illegals, while looking for under the table work. Some of the other illegals claimed that he had gang connections but that may be unreliable. Only then, he decided to apply for asylum, which legally he could not do, because his family failed to do so within the first year of arriving to the country as per the Law, regarding Asylum seekerdls. So that window closed. That was on them.

He was given a limited stay ruling by a judge that could be removed at a moments notice under any circumstance. Which orange man's ICE did. But honestly it was simply a matter of time.

Should he be sent to a jail in El Salvador? There is argument that he shouldn't but he was staying in the US via a slim reason that was based under the belief that gangs in El Salvador would go after him. Why? No idea, since no real proof was ever provided and if he or his family were so concerned over this, they could have tried going the Legal route before. Apparently they were not necessarily poor, either, so this does not look good for their case.

It was flimpsy reason due to lack of evidence, he is likely not some ex-gang member or even related to someone whose connection could endanger his life. If he was, he would have been dead in the jail, already. Also almost all gangs are in jail in El Salvador, so he may lack legal standing, if he argues the same thing. I find it strange that on the link article it claims that he has gang connections. In previous statements he denied having any.

Just like Clinton shipped thousands of Salvadoreans back to El Salvador after the civil war ended because they had used the war as the reason to stay in the USA in the first place.

What should be done is that he should be released from jail but sadly, he had no legal reason to be in the USA. He is not a citizen and he had no legal standing aside a weird, flimpsy exception. He did get a married and has a kid, but he does not have any paperwork to stay and blew a lot of his chances by not acting until he was caught. The other two kids are from his wife's previous relationship(s).

I know some will say that he is entitled to due process and looking at it, he got it, back in 2019 and all he got was a flimsy court order that could be removed for any reason. He got some lawyers but no real traction was done in the courts. Despite the drama on the news, it seems that he was legally trying to bleed a stone.

I get the equally flimsy excuse from ICE that he was sent due to a clerical error by them not getting the newer court order in time. That is suspicious, to say the least.

Looking at the legality of the issue and removing emotional bias aside, I can see why they may want to take it of the Supreme Court. If we go by facts alone, he may be released from prison but may not be able to come back. Like what is the legal standing for an illegal to stay in the USA, when he has no avenue for asylum? Saying that he has a wife and kid, in the real world does not amount to a legal reason. This whole thing is weird, since if he gets released from the jail, over there, then for sure he is not going to be let back into the USA. He is a fairly unique case, the way things happened.

They do have a a plan for corporations, for other end users the main path is self-hosting. Which is not hard, alternatively, there are known provides that you can sign up with, however. Most of them are paid services. In general, in one way or another have to pay for things, nothing is 100% free.

However there may be some free services but they are likely very limited or there is the issue of whether you want to trust them with your data.

Because most of the world are Normies that will use whatever comes pre-installed on their phone, or go onto whatever thing their friends are on already?

I mean:

"As of 2025, Facebook has 3.07 billion monthly active users (MAU). The platform has 2.11 billion daily active users (DAU), representing 68.73% of its monthly active user base. India boasts the largest Facebook audience, with 375 million users, followed by the United States, which has 194.1 million users.1 Jan 2025."

Bohdan Krotevych, who quit as the chief of staff of the Azov brigade in February partly so he could speak out, said he believed that armed forces commander, Gen Oleksandr Syrskyi, “must go” and Ukraine’s military leadership must be shaken up.

The veteran complained in an interview that Syrskyi and the existing leadership were engaged in “manual micro-management of the whole army” and highlighted orders given to soldiers and units forcing them to rest and base too close to the front.

“I started receiving from the high army command, from the commander-in-chief HQ, orders that became more and more borderline criminal, which I, in my good conscience, was unable to fulfil and follow,” Krotevych said.

One of Ukraine’s best-known soldiers, Krotevych, 32, served in Azov from 2014 and survived the last stand at the Azovstal steelworks in spring 2022. Captured by Russian forces, he endured a short period of captivity before being exchanged.

Krotevych then chose to return to the front, and became increasingly outspoken during his final period of military service, openly criticising other commanders who he believed had been careless with soldiers’ lives.


It is worth reading the whole article, though.

Uh, it is all market manipulation. Tarrifs, subsidies, grants, hell, even tax breaks on selected things, sectors, etc.. China. The EU and the USA, well most countries do it.

Anyway, the point here is that no one who knows how to play the market should have moved a dime through the fluctuations but many people get overly jumpy for no reason. This crap will pass but the media is fear mongering a bit too much.

Yes, those who wanted to play with risk, could have bought into the dip. You do not have to be a millionaire/billionate to know or do any of this. You just have to be in the market as to make some money. Like Google is not going out of business, if the stock went down then yeah why not buy into it?

I recall that when the Iraq war broke out, tons of soulless stockbrokers went nuts into American weapon manufacturers, specifically corps that made missile parts.

It is always the same and the same thing happens all the time. Same with the Ukrainian war. Guess who invested in weapon manufacturers again?

Of course I did.

Did you?

They literally paid influencers to push her agenda via a dark money entity called WaytoWin. They showed TikTok clips of those.

$10 Million, that we know of.

Those inflencers DID NOT state or shared or told people they were acting as paid shills in order to influence young voters. That much is clear in the video and is underhanded.

"Explain her position," is such a dishonest take. You must be jesting.

Elon did that. That is also stated in the video. The Hill is a pretty good source that criticises both sides.

Oh boy! ...Here we go, dropping a new Dystopia again!

So... What happens when it is wrong?

Hi friend,

"VAERS is not designed to assess cause and effect, VAERS reports alone cannot be used to determine if a vaccine caused or contributed to an adverse event (AE) or illness. Some reports may contain information that is incomplete, inaccurate, coincidental, or unverifiable. Most reports to VAERS are voluntary, which means they are subject to bias. Data from VAERS reports should be interpreted with these limitations in mind... Etc..."

Did you even try to read my claims? I never claimed this.

My claim: Government did an observational study where they designated a Vaccine Committee and which looked at the first two years of data and then, the government designated a vaccine satey committee and then they went through the data and sorted and still found examples where they begrudgingly admitted some connection regarding safety.

Again, I ask you, is your claim the source is useless? Yes or No? If is is useless then why are you, if American paying for it? Is your claim that VAERS is then all smoke and mirrors?

So which one is it? Is VAERS next to useless, so why does big pharma and taxes pay for it for about 35 years? Or it is useful once the data is parsed and thus can in fact show us vaccine injuries? You can't have both narratives exist. The study I showed was Government sactioned so are the Feds lying? Which one is it?

When they say "anyone," they do not mean, anons, you have to enter some medical info. You could be a rand9m pereon bit you have to enter a Doctor or some medical proffessionals persons name/ID. It is not like a random lottery. Have you actually try to fill a form and upload it to the HHS? Please. Try. Stop reading this and GO fill a fake report. There is nothing to lose, as you say. Go, do it. Let us know once you have downloaded the PDF filled it up and uploaded it back. We will all wait.

If someone enters bad info and lies, but add no Medical ID or Doctor's into, etc then they just ignore the data point. Easy come, easy go. You clearly have never worked with any databases of this type. Obviously. To say there is no or 0 control is outstanding and I cannot believed you think that would fly. Logically.

Do you even understand what you are copy/pasting? When they say "VAERS" alone they mean using the RAW data. Cool. I literally stated that before, Data needs to be sorted -- AKA: Investigated before you can use it. I did say that and I did state that people DID that in the study I posted. Like, you are not really reading or understanding what I am say? Honestly asking, is English your first language? It is not mine, bit I think I am being clear enough. Yes, friends, the reports DO get investigated. It takes a wild and we can question how well they investigate those entries and hiwnfast, butbthey do. Science is not magic.

Politics in general and in my mind should not have anything to do with vaccines or Science, in general. But in the real world, they do, because people are attention monkeys l, Left or Right or UP and Dow. and there is money and ego and voting power involved via PR, so it js. A sad reality of the world. I wish politics had nothing to do with it. That would be ideal. I'm my opinion.

I can tell for a fact now that you actually do not read Vaccine Studies cover to cover. At the risk of sounding bad, I do not just abstracts or conclusions. And if you actually read any studies in general then you know that there is plenty of room for a lot of questions and an unreasonable level of lies by omission.

A point here, is how off you are about VAERS and how you push so-called pro-vaxxie misinformation, not so much different than anit-vaxxers in zest that only harms actual scientific discussions, because you parrot things without fully understanding the nuances involved.
