Per the wiki entry:

As the number of residents grew, the City of Miami and the State of Florida disagreed over who was ultimately responsible for the sex offenders. Miami City Commissioner Marc Sarnoff, worried about how tourists perceived the colony, prompted an attorney from the Florida Department of Corrections to write a letter to the City of Miami absolving the Department of responsibility. The City of Miami responded by filing a lawsuit against the state, citing public health and safety concerns

But have you considered whether the child murdered by the driver of that truck was riding an oversized bike?!?! Children riding oversized bikes are the scourge of our roadways!!

FBI informant Peter Thiel

https://www.businessinsider.com/peter-thiel-fbi-informant-charles-johnson-johnathan-buma-chs-genius-2023-10

quote:

Peter Thiel has worn many hats over the years: Silicon Valley founder, Trump megadonor, cryptocurrency booster, democracy skeptic.

But there is yet another facet to Thiel, one that has remained secret until now: FBI informant.

In the summer of 2021, Insider has learned, Thiel began providing information as a "confidential human source," or CHS, to Johnathan Buma, a Los Angeles-based FBI agent who specializes in investigating political corruption and foreign-influence campaigns.

Charles Johnson, a longtime associate of Thiel's and a notorious figure in the far-right movement that Thiel has subsidized for a decade, told Insider in a statement that he helped recruit the billionaire as an informant by introducing him to Buma.

A source with knowledge of Thiel's relationship to the FBI, whose identity is known to Insider but who insisted on anonymity, corroborated Johnson's account, telling Insider that Johnson brokered a relationship between Thiel and Buma. Insider was able to confirm through an additional source that the FBI added Thiel to its formal roster of registered informants.

Another source close to Thiel told Insider that while they could not confirm that Thiel was a CHS, Thiel did speak to Buma occasionally. The source said that any assistance Thiel might have provided to the FBI should be understood as part of Thiel's gradual distancing of himself from Trump and the broader MAGA movement, which has vigorously criticized the FBI and other federal law-enforcement agencies.

Johnson, who said that he was also an informant for Buma, told Insider that he believes that Thiel's reporting to the FBI was largely limited to foreign contacts and attempts by foreign governments to penetrate Silicon Valley. Thiel has publicly called on the FBI to investigate Google's ties to the Chinese government.

Thiel, Johnson said, was directed by the FBI not to report on his interactions with Donald Trump or other US political figures.

So given all the cameras he had in his places. Epstein was definitely recording powerful people having sex with girls that he provided them, and may have passed the tapes to Mossad. Would explain why so many top politicians can't even mildly criticize Israel for bombing hospitals.

donald trump used to own the plaza hotel in NYC. years after he had sold it a Chinese company bought it and the state department suddenly issued a warning saying any of their personnel in NYC should avoid it because china could use their access to pre-wire rooms for surveillance. :thunk:

he took a break from campaigning for president to go back home to arkie to oversee the execution. the man who was going to be executed told guards he was saving the pie from his last meal to eat later. way to go, bill!

Epstein recording people & using that to influence them is probably true but also like 90% of the senators and congresspeople have been documented peddling influence for untenable actors and their policies for less than the value of ham sandwich, that's the beauty of the mystery

Curtis yarvin has ideas that are complete silly sauce. They are absolutely bonkers and incompatible with common sense. They would make the world and even more miserable and terrible place for everyone but maybe one person. He essentially wants to bring back feudalism because he thinks that is freedom. Peter thiel and that crowd are against democracy as being incompatible with freedom and prefer dictatorship.

You don't even have to come up with conspiracy theories for Israel, there's an official lobbying group. Our government saw fit to set up an official channel for a foreign government to bribe your local congressman because what the gently caress are you going to do about it.
