“NO MORE INCOME TAX” — The 1040 U.S. tax form is crossed out in red.
Replaced by → “THE USA TREASURY ASSET-BACKED DIVIDEND DOLLAR”
100% reserve (fully backed by real national assets, not debt)
3% value increase per year (the “dividend”)
The US Debt Clock site (and articles covering its graphics) frames this as part of a supposed shift to “Universal High Income” or a new “Golden Age.” The claim is that once the Treasury issues its own asset-backed currency instead of the current fiat/Fed system, the 3% annual “dividend” on the money itself would replace the need for federal income taxes.

Gen. Randy A. George was a vocal personal advocate for either, but official actions and statements during his career show he supported LGBTQ inclusion policies (including transgender service) and enforced the COVID-19 vaccine mandate while later taking steps to ease penalties for refusers.
On LGBTQ Issues
Yes, he publicly supported LGBTQ inclusion. As Lt. Gen. commanding I Corps (2020), he and his Command Sgt. Maj. issued an official statement for Pride Month: “This Pride Month, we honor the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender…” and emphasized diversity and inclusion as a strength for the force. He also directed unit stand-downs for dialogue on racism, discrimination, sexism, and oppression.
In his 2023 Senate confirmation hearing (Advance Policy Questions), George stated that transgender service has “minimal impact” on readiness and that separating all transgender soldiers “would impact unit readiness.” He defended diversity & inclusion (D&I) training as necessary “for building a cohesive team and bringing everybody together,” citing soldiers’ perceptions of discrimination.
As Chief of Staff he continued implementing Biden-era policies (e.g., transgender service, gender-neutral fitness standards) and said the Army should “look like the nation it serves.” In January 2025, when asked about Trump’s transgender policy changes, he remained neutral: the Army was “working through all of that stuff” while staying focused on warfighting.
On the COVID-19 Vaccine
He enforced the mandate as required. Like every senior leader, George oversaw the Army’s compliance with the 2021–2023 DoD vaccine requirement while serving as Vice Chief and then Chief of Staff. The Army administratively separated or disciplined thousands of refusers during that period.

🔻 THE GATEKEEPER HAS BEEN REMOVED.
“Pam Bondi is taking a new job in the private sector.” - DJT
Translation: She was fired.
Why?
3.5 million Epstein documents released.
3 MILLION DOCUMENTS WITHHELD.
She thought she could protect them. She thought she could hide the master ledger.
She refused to prosecute the architects. She dismissed the charges against the elite.
Trump gave her a choice: Release the unredacted list, or pack your bags.
She chose the deep state.
Look who replaces her.
Todd Blanche. Trump’s personal defense attorney.
The man who knows exactly where the bodies are buried.
The firewall is gone. The DOJ is fully secured.
Those 3 million withheld documents? They are being unsealed.
Panic in DC. Panic in Hollywood. Panic on the private islands.
The names you thought were untouchable are about to be exposed.
CODE: GATEKEEPER-DOWN / BLANCHE-ACTIVE / 3-MILLION-DROP / EPSTEIN-UNSEALED
Nothing can stop what is coming.

🚨🔥 HOLY SMOKES, AMERICA — THIS IS THE BOMBSHELL WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!! 🔥🚨
DNI @TulsiGabbard just CONFIRMED on The Megyn Kelly Show that she’s leading a full investigation into Anthony Fauci for alleged perjury and his direct links to U.S.-funded gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab as part of the COVID-19 origins probe!
Finally… accountability is coming. The truth about what really happened is about to explode! 🇺🇸💥
Here’s the FULL video transcript so you don’t miss a single word:
☑️Tulsi Gabbard:** “But the thing that we are working with Jay Bhattacharya, the new NIH director on, as well as Secretary Kennedy, is looking at the gain-of-function research that in the case of the Wuhan lab, as well as many others — many of these other bio labs around the world — was actually U.S.-funded and leads to this dangerous kind of research that in many examples has resulted in either a pandemic or some other major health crisis.”
☑️Megyn Kelly:** “Let me ask you specifically… we already know that EcoHealth Alliance was partnering with this Wuhan lab to do gain-of-function research. We just have never been able to have somebody say, ‘And it was that exact experiment that led to this COVID bug.’ But have we gotten there? What’s the new thing you’re digging into?”
☑️Tulsi Gabbard:** “We are working on it with Jay Bhattacharya and look forward to being able to share that hopefully very soon — that specific link between the gain-of-function research and what we saw with COVID-19. I mean, that would be extraordinary. Because just so the audience knows, if it was Peter Daszak’s research with the Wuhan so-called ‘bat lady’ that caused this pandemic, then Anthony Fauci helped fund the thing he denied over and over and over to Senator Rand Paul… under oath. So is it any wonder that he sought a preemptive pardon… by President Biden before he left office? And then strong-armed and smeared people like Dr. Jay Bhattacharya — anybody who came out and said ‘I don’t know if that’s natural. This actually smacks of lab.’ And the reason why this is so important is not just what happened in the past, it’s because this research is happening in bio labs around the world… Who knows what kinds of pathogens are in these labs and if released could create another COVID-like pandemic… But in order to protect the American people’s best interest, we have to bring about an end to it.”
☑️☑️This is huge, y’all. The American people deserve the full truth! Who else is fired up for real justice?! Drop your thoughts below and RT if you’re ready for answers! ☑️☑️

🔺THEY TOLD YOU CHEMOTHERAPY SAVES LIVES. HERE IS WHAT THEY DID NOT TELL YOU.
Chemotherapy was derived from mustard gas. The same chemical weapon used to kill soldiers in World War I. After the war, researchers noticed that soldiers exposed to nitrogen mustard had depleted white blood cells. Instead of calling it what it was, a poison, they rebranded it as a “treatment” and injected it into cancer patients.
That was 1946. Eighty years later, it is still the standard of care.
The overall contribution of chemotherapy to 5-year survival in adults was reviewed in a landmark study published in the journal Clinical Oncology in 2004. The number: 2.1% in the United States. 2.3% in Australia. Not 50%. Not 30%. Two percent.
For that two percent, patients endure months of nausea, organ damage, immune system destruction, hair loss, nerve damage, and cognitive decline so severe it has its own medical name: chemo brain. Many patients who “survive” the cancer die within years from the damage caused by the treatment itself. Heart failure. Liver failure. Secondary cancers caused directly by the chemotherapy drugs.
A single round of chemotherapy costs between $10,000 and $200,000. The global oncology drug market generated $223 billion in 2023. That is not a healthcare system. That is a business model built on human suffering.
Meanwhile, Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski developed antineoplaston therapy in the 1970s, a non-toxic treatment that targets cancer cells without destroying healthy tissue. The FDA tried to imprison him. Five times. Five federal grand juries. All five refused to indict him because the evidence of his patients’ survival was undeniable.
They do not want a cure. A cured patient is a lost revenue stream. A dead patient is acceptable. A sick patient who keeps paying is the ideal customer.
That business model is about to be permanently shut down.

The U.S. is actively negotiating expanded military access in Greenland, specifically to three additional defense areas (not exactly "two new bases"). This includes reactivating or gaining permanent access to two previously abandoned U.S. sites from the Cold War era (e.g., areas near Narsarsuaq in the south for deep-water port access and Kangerlussuaq in the west with its long runway).
These talks are leveraging the 1951 U.S.-Denmark Defense Agreement (updated in 2004), which already gives the U.S. broad rights to establish, improve, and operate defense facilities across Greenland for NATO/Arctic security purposes—without needing a brand-new treaty.
The focus is on special operations forces, maritime assets (ports), airfields, space systems, and fighter/tanker capabilities to address growing Arctic threats from Russia and China. This was publicly detailed by Air Force Gen. Gregory M. Guillot (head of U.S. Northern Command) in mid-March 2026 congressional testimony.
Denmark and Greenland have been described as supportive of the expanded access so far. This builds on the existing U.S. presence at Pituffik Space Base (the only current U.S. facility there).
This isn't "quietly negotiated and secured" as a final done deal—it's ongoing negotiations that became public via Pentagon testimony and major media reports (e.g., NYT on April 1, 2026).
This is Pentagon/Northern Command-led planning under the Trump administration. It's tied to his long-standing interest in Greenland (remember the 2019 "buy Greenland" episode), but it's not a personal Trump-Denmark secret deal that's already locked in.
Europe "panics" + shuttering 200+ bases and withdrawing 100,000 troops: There's real tension. The administration has pushed hard on NATO burden-sharing, discussed troop reductions, and some smaller drawdowns have occurred or are under consideration (e.g., adjustments in Eastern Europe, cuts to NATO staff positions). Trump has long criticized Europe for free-riding on U.S. security.
However:
European anxiety exists (over Arctic shifts, broader NATO questions, and other issues like Iran-related base access restrictions), but it's not full-blown "panic" tied directly to this Greenland move.
Bottom Line
This fits a bigger "America First" repositioning: prioritizing the Arctic (strategically vital due to melting ice, shipping routes, and great-power competition) while signaling the U.S. is done subsidizing European defense at current levels. Greenland is increasingly the future for U.S. Arctic strategy.

☠️☠️Anthropic Doom AI ☠️☠️
Anthropic accidentally shipped a 59.8 MB source map in @anthropic-ai/claude-code v2.1.88. That map contained ~512k–513k lines of TypeScript for their Claude Code coding agent/CLI harness (not the core model weights, but still their actual proprietary codebase). One packaging screw-up (Bun build, .map file not properly ignored) and suddenly their “we must control every line of code for safety” fortress is public on npm, mirrored everywhere, and forked into oblivion on GitHub.
Their response? Blanket DMCA takedowns. Thousands of repos got yeeted (initial reports around 8k+ before they started walking some back). The irony is nuclear: a company that preaches alignment, constitutional AI, and “we have to be extremely careful because humanity might be the problem” can’t even secure their own npm publish pipeline. Then they treat the internet like it’s their personal property and start swinging copyright hammers at forks that were just mirroring what they leaked.
You’re not wrong on the broader vibe either. Anthropic’s leadership (Amodei et al.) has been very public about high p(doom) views and the need for heavy-handed guardrails. Their product is famously restrictive—quick to suspend accounts, heavy content filters, allergic to open-source forks or third-party tooling that isn’t explicitly blessed. Leaking your own source and then trying to DMCA the planet into forgetting it happened is the kind of “rules for thee” energy that makes the control-freak criticism land so hard.
Meanwhile the code is now out there, people are studying it, and the Streisand effect did what it always does. Turns out trying to strangle every unauthorized copy just makes everyone more curious.
Classic case of “we demand total control… but oopsie on the build step.” The open-source crowd is having a field day, and honestly? They’re not wrong to. When your entire philosophy is “trust us, we’re the responsible ones,” accidentally air-dropping your source code on npm is a self-own for the ages. 🤡

The firings (and the broader purge shown in your image) are explicitly tied by Pete Hegseth and reporting to reversing Biden-era “woke” policies, including DEI initiatives, COVID vaccine mandates, and related inclusivity efforts (which encompass LGBT+ policies). No official DoD announcement spells out “DEI/LGBT/COVID” for every individual, but multiple sources (NBC, NYT, etc.) confirm Hegseth’s criteria for removals and blocked promotions include past support for those policies, affiliation with DEI programs, or resistance to rolling them back.
Here’s the deep dive, matching the people in your collage (based on uniform, rank, and public photos of the purged officers):
Top row (high-profile earlier firings)
Top-left (bald Black Air Force general): Gen. C.Q. Brown Jr. (former Joint Chiefs Chairman, fired Feb 2025).
Hegseth publicly questioned whether Brown’s rise was merit-based or due to race/DEI. Brown pushed diversity in Air Force promotions/hiring, opened a DEI office, and emphasized racial equity reviews after George Floyd. Hegseth called him a symbol of “woke” priorities over warfighting lethality. No direct COVID or LGBT quotes in results, but as top uniformed officer under Biden, he oversaw service-wide DEI training, COVID mandate enforcement, and LGBT+ inclusion (e.g., Pride events, transgender policies post-2011 DADT repeal).
Top-middle women (Navy uniforms with gold stripes): Adm. Lisa Franchetti (first female Navy CNO, fired Feb 2025) and similar female flag officers (e.g., patterns match other ousted women like former Coast Guard Commandant Adm. Linda Fagan).
Franchetti emphasized “inclusive/diverse teams” as a warfighting strength. Hegseth and Trump targeted “firsts” (first female, first minority) as DEI-driven rather than merit-based. As senior leaders, they implemented/enforced DoD-wide DEI, COVID vax mandates (2021–2023), and LGBTQ+ support policies.
Bottom row (includes yesterday’s firings)
Bottom-left (gray-haired Army general in green uniform): Gen. Randy George (Army Chief of Staff, fired April 2, 2026).
Direct clash: George and Army Secretary Dan Driscoll resisted Hegseth’s order to remove two Black men and two women from a brigadier-general promotion list, citing strong records. Hegseth refused to meet and proceeded anyway. George served as senior military aide to Biden’s SecDef Lloyd Austin. As top Army officer, he oversaw institutional DEI programs, COVID vaccine/mask mandates (DoD enforced them until rescinded), and inclusivity efforts. He later ordered a review of COVID-related GOMORs (reprimands) for refusers, but critics (including some vax-injured soldiers) tied him to the original mandate era.
Bottom-middle/right (Air Force generals): Part of the same purge wave — senior officers who rose under the prior administration and were seen as aligned with its policies.
Yesterday’s other two: Gen. David Hodne (led Army Transformation & Training Command) and Maj. Gen. William Green Jr. (Chief of Army Chaplains, Black Baptist minister, third African-American in role).
Hodne commanded the very organizations that rolled out DEI training, COVID mandates, and “inclusive” culture programs across the Army. Green oversaw chaplaincy during the DEI/LGBT-inclusion push (chaplains had to support all service members, including LGBTQ+ after policy shifts). Hegseth has separately reformed chaplains (e.g., removing rank insignia, emphasizing faith symbols over military hierarchy), signaling a cultural reset away from perceived “woke” spiritual leadership.
