Jan6: Feds Admit to Running Secret DOJ Commandos

Feds Finally Admit to Running Secretive DOJ “Commandos” at Jan. 6 Trump Protests https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/01/breaking-feds-finally-admit-runnin… https://www.newsweek.com/exclusive-secret-commandos-shoot-kill-authority-we… The Department of Justice admitted this week to running secretive DOJ “commandos” at the January 6 protests in Washington DC. Four Trump supporters died that day including two women who were killed by Capitol Hill Police. A third woman was nearly killed but was rescued by Green Beret Jeremy Brown. SHOCKING VIDEO: J6 Political Prisoner and Green Beret Jeremy Brown Rescued Female Trump Supporter from DEADLY US Capitol Police Beating – WOMAN WAS NEARLY KILLED The DOJ Commandos were given “shoot to kill” orders. TRENDING: BREAKING: Georgia Investigators have 'Ballot Trafficker' Who Is Talking -- Admits to Being Paid THOUSANDS in 2020 Election Ballot Boxes Ballot Harvesting Scheme -- 242 Ballot Traffickers Detected Now they’re admitting the government did in fact have commandos at the capitol on Jan. 6. After nearly a year this information is finally coming out. And they accused this website and others of being conspiracy nuts for reporting on the feds in the crowd that day. We will likely never know how many feds were working that day to sabotage the peaceful protests. Newsweek reported: On Sunday, January 3, the heads of a half-dozen elite government special operations teams met in Quantico, Virginia, to go over potential threats, contingencies, and plans for the upcoming Joint Session of Congress. The meeting, and the subsequent deployment of these shadowy commandos on January 6, has never before been revealed. Right after the New Year, Jeffrey A. Rosen, the acting Attorney General on January 6, approved implementation of long-standing contingency plans dealing with the most extreme possibilities: an attack on President Donald Trump or Vice President Mike Pence, a terrorist attack involving a weapon of mass destruction, and a declaration of measures to implement continuity of government, requiring protection and movement of presidential successors. Rosen made a unilateral decision to take the preparatory steps to deploy Justice Department and so-called “national” forces. There was no formal request from the U.S. Capitol Police, the Secret Service, or the Metropolitan Police Department—in fact, no external request from any agency. The leadership in Justice and the FBI anticipated the worst and decided to act independently, the special operations forces lurking behind the scenes. “I believe that DOJ [Department of Justice] reasonably prepared for contingencies ahead of January 6, understanding that there was considerable uncertainty as to how many people would arrive, who those people would be, and precisely what purposes they would pursue,” Rosen later told Congress. He stressed that his department “no frontline role with respect to crowd control,” that they were focused on “high-risk” operations. The contingency units meeting on January 3 included the FBI’s Hostage Rescue Team, the FBI’s national “Render Safe” team, an FBI SWAT team from the Baltimore Field Office, Special Response Teams from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), and the U.S. Marshals Service Special Operations Group… …FBI tactical teams arrived on Capitol Hill early in the day to assist in the collection of evidence at sites—including the Republican and Democrat party national headquarters—where explosive devices were found. FBI SWAT teams and snipers were deployed to secure nearby congressional office buildings. Other FBI agents provided selective security around the U.S. Capitol and protection to congressional members and staff. A tactical team of the Hostage Rescue Team was one of the first external federal agencies to actually enter the Capitol after protestors breached the building. In addition to augmentation of emergency security assets, one team coordinated with the U.S. Capitol Police and Secret Service to provide additional safeguarding of Vice President Pence, who had been moved to the underground parking structure beneath the Capitol, from where he was supposed to evacuate. But Pence refused to leave the building and stayed underground instead. The presence of these extraordinary forces under the control of the Attorney General—and mostly operating under contingency plans that Congress and the U.S. Capitol Police were not privy to—added an additional layer of highly armed responders. The role that the military played in this highly classified operation is still unknown, though FBI sources tell Newsweek that military operators seconded to the FBI, and those on alert as part of the National Mission Force, were present in the metropolitan area. The lingering question is: What was it that the Justice Department saw that provoked it to see January 6 as an extraordinary event, something that the other agencies evidently missed.

[spam][crazy][random] Rotary Encoder: Slightly More Productive Goal
by Undiscussed Horrific Abuse, One Victim of Many 28 Mar '22

28 Mar '22

As I try to move from goals that are intentionally pointless to those that have some utility, I now want to resume my project of providing a way to build a free high quality servo. Servos are motors that can go to a specific orientation and optionally measure their orientation and/or applied force. Where I'm at, is I want to make a script that generates a printout to make a rotary encoder. Servos usually use potentiometers, which are inaccurate. Rotary encoders can be more precise. Unfortunately, I've misplaced or lost my existing work. But the subgoal is quite simple: A script that generates a wheel of color according to a provided radial function. I think if the darkness of the bands on the wheels increases linearly as a function of angle, the encoder could be calibrated to measure possibly-arbitrary precision via a photocell facing the rotary encoder. The script should be generalisable to various encoding norms. You can read more about optical rotary encoders at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_encoder#Ways_of_encoding_shaft_position .

Arweave: Unlimited Permaweb Document Archival
by Undiscussed Horrific Abuse, One Victim of Many 24 Mar '22

24 Mar '22

If you're not aware, another blockchain called Arweave is also purpose-built around preserving data for eternity via small payments in their AR currency. In summary, it works because miners need only store part of the chain, and are rewarded based on how much they store. https://arweave.org/ It's still engaging growing pains here and there. Its primary language is still node.js and there are presently some gateway caching issues people are repairing this month. A group called "textury" have set up a set of systems on top of arweave which attempt to provide increased ease of use, reliability, and automation. A primary tool is arkb, which provides automated upload from the command line: https://github.com/textury/arkb Arweave community telegram: https://t.me/arweavers Ardrive telegram: https://t.me/ardriveapp Textury discord: https://discord.gg/GtS2NzVAJG Here's the readme of arkb: # arkb Arweave Deploy that saves you data costs. ## Features - No file size limit. - No amount of files limit. - Doesn't upload files that you have already uploaded. ## How to use arkb runs using NodeJS and NPM. You must have both installed on your machine for it to work. Install arkb: ``` yarn global add arkb # recommended ``` or ``` npm install -g arkb ``` > **Note:** The installation of arkb needs node >=15.11.0 or you will get an error when using `arkb`. To manage multiple active nodejs, we recommend you have [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) installed on your computer, then you can switch different node in a simple command. And run: ``` arkb help ``` > **Note:** If you are planning to upload large batches of data transactions to the Arweave network, it is *strongly* advised that you use the `--use-bundler` option instead of regular deploy to avoid transaction failures. You can read about bundles and their advantages on the [Arwiki](https://arwiki.wiki/#/en/preview/WUAtjfiDQEIqhsUcHXIFTn5ZmeDIE7If9hJREBLRgak). ``` d8b d8b ?88 ?88 88b 88b d888b8b 88bd88b 888 d88' 888888b d8P' ?88 88P' ` 888bd8P' 88P `?8b 88b ,88b d88 d88888b d88, d88 `?88P'`88bd88' d88' `?88b,d88'`?88P' Usage: arkb [options] [command] Options Description --auto-confirm Skips the confirm screen --concurrency -c <number> Multi thread, default is 5 --debug Display log messages --fee-multiplier -m <number> Set the fee multiplier for all transactions --force -f Force a redeploy of all the files --gateway -g <host_or_ip> Set the gateway hostname or ip address --help -h Show usage help for a command --ipfs-publish Publish to Arweave+IPFS --license Specify the license of your upload with an spdx li --no-colors Print to terminal without fancy colors --tag-name <name> Set a tag name --tag-value <value> Set a tag value --timeout -t <number> Set the request timeout --bundle Locally bundle your files and deploy to Arweave --use-bundler <host_or_ip> Use an ans104 bundler service --wallet -w <wallet_path> Set the key file path Commands (alias) Description balance (b) Get the current balance of your wallet deploy (d) <folder_or_file> Deploy a directory or file fund-bundler <amount> Fund your bundler account help (h) Show usage help for a command network (n) Get the current network info status (s) <txid> Check the status of a transaction ID transfer <address> <amount> Send funds to an Arweave wallet version (v) Show the current arkb version number wallet-export (we) Exports a previously saved wallet wallet-forget (wf) Removes a previously saved wallet wallet-save (ws) <wallet_path> Saves a wallet, removes the need of the --wallet option withdraw-bundler <amount> Withdraw from your bundler balance ``` ## Contributing 1.

Cryptocurrency: Litigation Finance - Distributed Investments In Interesting Outcomes
by grarpamp 12 Mar '22

12 Mar '22

>> [Litigation Finance threads...] > You're not offering anonymous financing opportunities > for crypto early adopters to assist with, so you'll have > that much harder time making and finding financing > markets for cases. ie Funders may wish to be anon, such as they often are with donations to charity (Sean's Outpost, Pineapple Fund), with early whales just as able to contribute percentages as today's newest users are. All sorts of possible cases exist... a) Kyle Rittenhouse is filing a pile of slander / libel cases against people who have called him a murderer etc, even after he was found not guilty. Some of the cases may lose with costs, some may win with payout. b) Cigarettes, Asbestos, Coal Miners Lung c) Patent invalidation d) Government murder of civilians e) Forced firing unvaxed of workers f) Coverups, extortion, fraud, torts... g) People who got screwed, bad situations, justice needed... h) Etc... whatever markets may find interesting and worthwhile Were crypto litigation finance markets to be established, financiers could review all the case prospectus, litigator performance, cost per payout potential, jurisdiction shopping, etc... and choose which they like to invest in, as would investors in any other open market. Pay into a crypto address, get paid out that percent of all funds that went into it, right back to the sending address. Lots of opportunities exist where [often poor / oppressed] litigants or classes have rock solid cases but have no funds to launch and carry them through, and no encouragement / hope / mentors / peers to do it with. Often litigants have nowhere to turn if they can't find capable or willing representation in their city. And markets have no current exploration activities or methods, or venture capital solicitation fora (Shark Tanks), for seeking out those cases. While LitFin applies to and enables traditional "in person" courts just the same, digital court filings and remote court appearances are a good match as well. With easy crypto crowdfunding, the litigation finance market is ripe for development and its first big wins.
