🇺🇸 the Guardian: We ran high-level US civil war simulations. Minnesota is exactly how they start

⬛️ Developments in Minnesota closely mirror a scenario explored in a 2024 exercise conducted at the Center for Ethics and the Rule of Law at the University of Pennsylvania, which I direct

🔶️ Governor Walz has placed the Minnesota national guard on standby to support local law enforcement, while Trump has threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act – an extraordinary move that would grant him sweeping domestic military powers and potentially sidestep recent supreme court limits on the use of federal troops in law enforcement. One thousand additional ICE agents have been sent to Minnesota, suggesting that Trump is essentially using ICE as a specialized paramilitary force to target protesters and suppress dissent. And the Pentagon has readied the army’s 11th Airborne Division – roughly 1,500 active-duty soldiers – to back up the president’s threat.

🔶️ This scenario closely mirrors one explored in an October 2024 tabletop exercise conducted by the Center for Ethics and the Rule of Law (CERL), which I direct, at the University of Pennsylvania. In that exercise, a president carried out a highly unpopular law-enforcement operation in Philadelphia and attempted to federalize the Pennsylvania’s national guard. When the governor resisted and the guard remained loyal to the state, the president deployed active-duty troops, resulting in an armed conflict between state and federal forces. The core danger we identified is now emerging: a violent confrontation between state and federal military forces in a major American city.

🔶️ While our hypothetical scenario picked a different city and a slightly different sequence of events, the conclusions we reached about the possibility of green-on-green violence are directly applicable to the current situation. First, none of the participants – many of them senior former military and government officials – considered the scenario unrealistic, especially after the supreme court’s decision in Trump v United States, which granted the president criminal immunity for official acts.

🔶️ Second, we concluded that in a fast-moving emergency of this magnitude, courts would probably be unable or unwilling to intervene in time, leaving state officials without meaningful judicial relief. State officials might file emergency motions to enjoin the use of federal troops, but judges would either fail to respond quickly enough or decline to rule on what they view as a “political question”, leaving the conflict unresolved. This is why Judge Menendez’s ruling is so critical: it may be the last opportunity a federal judge has to intervene before matters spiral completely out of control.

🔶️ Third, we warned that senior military leaders could face orders to use force not only against state national guard units, but against unarmed civilians – and that they must be prepared to assess the legality of such orders. Any domestic deployment of federal troops must comply with the Department of Defense’s Rules for the Use of Force and with the constitution, including the Bill of Rights. Even under the Insurrection Act, federal troops may not lawfully shoot protesters unless they are literally defending their lives against an imminent threat – yet such conduct is already happening in Minneapolis at the hands of federal agents.

🔶️ For members of the 11th Airborne Division, this may soon cease to be a theoretical question. Minnesota may be the first test of whether constitutional limits on domestic military force still hold – or whether the United States is about to cross a line from which it cannot easily return.

"As I understand things, JP Morgan (and many other banks, but mostly JP Morgan) has many clients who want to be long silver, in the OTC or “Over The Counter” market and LBMA market, up to perhaps $100 billion to $200 billion worth of “silver” in “accounts”. But JP Morgan (and other western banks) never went out and bought this silver in the first place, because there does not exist $100 billion to $200 billion worth of silver to buy in a world that produces and mines only about $6 billion (at $10/oz.) to $21 billion (at $30/oz) worth of silver per year. This puts JP Morgan (and other banks) in a natural short position, as they owe their clients 10-20 times more silver than the world produces annually. JP Morgan thus has this massive natural silver short exposure. To protect the bank from the silver short position, JP Morgan must cap silver prices, by shorting silver on the COMEX, where prices are set. Otherwise, as silver prices rise, the bank loses more and more on the silver they are supposedly holding for their clients. Only in that sense, does JP Morgan have “offsetting positions”; in other words, shorts on COMEX to back up or shore up JP Morgan’s other losing short positions (client long positions)!

JP Morgan cannot offset such OTC positions in the OTC market. Except, in the sense I just explained, every single additional “sale” of silver in the OTC market protects and hedges every other sale, as all sales of “silver” in “accounts” to customers have the cumulative effect of preventing people from buying and taking delivery of real physical silver which would drive the silver price up.

The key reason why the London LBMA and OTC silver selling is so successful is that nobody ever asks for delivery of the silver, because there is a 20% tax on #silver delivery in London."

The COVID Shot Turned the Human Body Into a Transmitter, the SHOCKING new data

A new documentary might be the most mind blowing report we've ever seen on the covid vaccine. If took the shot your body is acting as a transmitter. One of the most eye opening scenes from the trailer shows signals being received... and then camera pans back and you realize the signals are coming from underground... in the corpses in the graveyard... people that had taken the shot... now dead... but still sending a signal.

I had a fascinating conversation with Kevin DeMeritt, Founder of Lear Capital, about gold, silver, and what investors should be paying attention to right now. If you’re curious about protecting your wealth and learning where the market is headed, you won’t want to miss this discussion.

"we have a nice little database, and now you're considered a domestic terrorist"

NOW - UK Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood: "A hundred years ago, fingerprinting was decried as curtailing our civil liberties, but today we could not imagine policing without it. I have no doubt the same will prove true of facial recognition technology in the years to come."

🇺🇦 MEN ARE SCREWED

Ukraine has opened heating points in Kyiv due to lack of electricity and heating in homes.

But there’s a catch: they are only for women, children, and the elderly.

Men who try to warm up are being taken by the military and sent to war.

A good article -- but this clown estimates silver at exactly $666 -- I wonder what occult message he is expecting this communicates? He could have just rounded to avoid 666

I'm settling into my next educational project about AI Data Centers and the impacts we'll see — this work is going to be mostly U.S focused since most of the DCs are being built here.

What would you like to know about your local data centers? Would a massive ecological impact of a data center influence your decision to live in that location?

Is there any use in making people aware of the ecological dangers? Is there any real way to withdraw our consent?

If you haven't already - check out my latest webinar on AI, its nuances, and local AI - or share it with a friend
