U.S. Feds Seized Nearly $1 Billion in Bitcoin from Wallet Linked to Silk Road
by jim bell 06 Nov '20

https://www.vice.com/en/article/akdgz8/us-feds-seize-1-billion-in-bitcoin-f… Dark Markets are a great idea. But, the people who run Dark Markets need to learn from their mistakes. Even in 2013, I pointed out that Dark Markets should be protected from seizure and prosecution with an AP-type system, where a small portion of the 'profits' are retained and offerred to anybody who "predicts" the date of death of anyone who attempts to prosecute any Dark Market. Judges, prosecutors, witnesses, even jurors if that should turn out to be necessary. And, perhaps, a rather serious reward for any jurors that participate in an acquittal or even 'hung jury'. What if $1 million was offerred, to be split between all jurors who vote to acquit, and if none of them do, $1 million was offered on the heads of those same jurors? This news item indicates that $1 billion in bitcoin (today's value) was available in 2015. If a person is now resigned to lose it, he should have been willing to lose it in 2015, or even earlier, in order to avoid having his Dark Market taken down. Unlike my 'traditional' proposed AP system, this kind of system wouldn't name specific names, since no names would be immediately known: It would only be known who the targets will be once the prosecution begins.

The constitutional basis of jurisdiction for the national guard to impose presence at elections -- USA Coup yet to be averted.
by Zenaan Harkness 05 Nov '20

05 Nov '20

The constitutional basis of jurisdiction for the national guard to impose presence at elections. The federation republic requires and relies upon, integrity of election. Without election integrity, the federal republic is fundamentally undermined, in its existence, in its interity, in its very essence. Election by the people is the fundemental event which creates the federal republic. Here's the thing: The states have no exlusive jurisdiction over votes or over vote counting. The people are inherently vested with some federal jurisdiction. Indeed they are the fundamental sovereignty giving rise to all political institutions and entities, which cannot exist without the vote of the people, and may not operate even in the minutest except with that jurisdiction granted by the people who are, who be, and who remain the ultimate sovereigns. Put in the first person: without our individual and collective authority, no political entity lewfully exists: - not the state - not local councils - not burroughs - not the federation, the federal republic - not any polling "authority" In this specific context of voting, and vote counting, and vote count monitoring, each individual human is a higher authority than any local "election official" who acts fundamentally illegally, and or immorally, and or without historical precedent and in particular when s/he acts against the interests of: - the voter - the state - the federal republic - any other entity arising (any organ of any government) If a standing army or militia means anything at all (and it certainly does) then it is one particular form of the collective authority of the people. Learn to EXERCISE THAT AUTHORITY people - not as an individual, not as vigilante, but calmly, peacefully and collectively as that righteous and upstanding authority which brings despotism to heel, which brings forth the actual, lived (now) authority of the people! Do it! Get in comm with others. Live your right to bring integrity to your election. Without integrity in your election, your republic is lost, despotism shall reign. Similarly to the standing army of the people, also the Sheriffs in their own right, and the National Guard in their own right, each have similar authority to right wrongs, to bring forth integrity in a vote, election, vote count, etc. Bearing arms is more than owning arms. It is like baring /bearing teeth. There is a time and place to live certain rights, now is that time, so send this to the people you know who need to hear it. Without the people, there is not even a constitution. Iy you, we, the people, need to, we can do just about anything. We are the original sovereignty, the original authority, and the original voice after our maker - so USE IT! You can (with others) ANNUL certain votes/ elections due to true (factual) and righteous grounds. Figure it out. Make it happen. Your president asked you to stand back and stand by, and to protect your great second amendment. Is now the moment to stand forth with others and help bring justice and righteousness to this earth? Only YOU can answer that question. You don't have much time left, but you do have enough time (you can annul, re-run elections, declare vote dumps illegal etc - just do it with others to be safe, and to be effective! Good luck people, your nation is at stake and it looks from Australia that your president needs you NOW.

However, the 'consolation prize' is that it is so obvious that a 'coup' is attempted that I am satisfied that a segment of the public will be outraged. The people at the FBI and DOJ who deliberately failed to properly investigate Biden's fraud, and failed to publicize it, can be investigated by hearings in the Senate. > > > > > > > > > > Jim Bell > > > > > On Tuesday, November 3, 2020, 11:02:35 PM PST, jim bell <jdb10987(a)yahoo.com> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > Fortunately, "the coup" was stopped. But it wasn't the coup some people anticipated. In 2016, the leadership of the FBI attempted a coup, by the trick of refusing to prosecute Hitlery Clinton for violations of the Espionage Act. Comey knew that if Hitlery had been indicted, she definitely would have lost. He hoped that by not indicting Hitlery, she might win. He chose the only path available to him that might let her win. Yet, she didn't win, anyway. That's why I called that an "attempted coup". > > > > > In December 2019, the FBI was given a computer laptop which contained Hunter Biden's hard drive information. The public only learned of this information in late September 2020, which seemed to be too late to expose what Joe and Hunter Biden had been doing, playing footsie with Ukraine and China. So by concealing this information, once again the FBI tried to stage a coup, hoping that the public would only learn, too late, how this crook had been foisted on them. > > > > > I can only assume that the public smelled a rat, and decided that they didn't dare give control of the Federal government to Joe Biden for four years. > > > > > Not incidentally, on Election Day, Joe Biden confused the names of his two granddaughters, and introduced one of them as his dead son, Beau Biden. > > > > > And this guy wanted us to give his finger authority over the nuclear button!

"I chew gum, and I blow up missile shipments to Venezuela" - [ENJOY] [PEACE]

Folks 2020 ist going to be ze funny-est year of zis millenium. Fer sure muffaducka :D So!: "I chew gum, and I blow up missile shipments to Venezuela. Oh ... und I am all outta gum!" HA! Did not expect this headline folks. Movie coming up no doubt, but whether it's 2 years or 22 years is anyone's guess at this point :) US Vows To Blow Up Any Iranian Missile Shipments To Venezuela https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-vows-blow-any-iranian-missile-shi… You know how it SHOULD go down - movie called "Tommy Strikes": US navy steams into position from Sat intel prep, considers lives on board Iranian missile shipment, literally by ship, to Venezuela, presently still on the high seas. Cut to submarine shot 'cause subs are cool, especially in a Navy special ops movie :) Rivetting moment as camera pans very serious faces, all immaculately dressed on bridge of the USS Teddy. It's dusk (better light effects for the fireworks to come). Captain is serious, very serious. CIA suits are laser dotting a big paper plan of Eye-ranian ship on cap'ns table as flippered navy seals maintain piercing gaze and ears on every word dropped. "'K lads, this how we goin down to day: the Eye-ranians are back on comms in 7 minutes. They got a light crew - 17 Souls on board. But they missiles are gunna make the evening sky look like midday when Tommy strikes. [laughter all around]" A flipper lad speaks up: "Sir!?" Suit: "Yes son?" Flipper lad: "What the hell's this preacher fo?! Sir!" Suit: "Conscience, lad! But more 'n that, we're shootin over 3 powered lifeboats - 10 Eye-ranians in each, if they wanna [more chuckles], and one fo spare, just in case they under reeportin dey numbers - happens all the time. [mo chuckels] They'll have 20 minutes to avoid the fireworks." Flipper lad again: "" Suit: "I probably shouldnta say 'shootin' just yet. COME on son, y'all know what I mean - life boats are GOIN over there!" [mo chuckels] Suit: "Any more questions? And NONE outta YOU!" [points to smart arse] Chuckles, nods and grunts. ... Did I mention "Tommy Strikes" is a little bit trollish? Welp, it's a little bit trollish ;)

> Bell wrote: > https://www.extremetech.com/extreme/316819-starlink-beta-speed-tests-put-tr… How much did the various "cube satellite" projects cost to get payload space on the launch carrier? Seems that cryptocurrency ancap folks are now certainly able to buy space and launch an independent uncensorable physical network of cubesats into space, whether as transponders / repeaters for people to simply bounce off of, or as a mesh of relay nodes making up an actual network protocol. The above general data transport is much different and more advanced than what the Bitcoin-BTC folks are doing with a simple uplink of a full node to a sat to broadcast the blockchain down. Crowdfund, crypto pay to access, distribute rotating access keys on blockchain, or just leave open to everyone for anonymous access limited only by ability to learn and use GNURadio... a natural free incentive toward many more people becoming invloved with Guerilla radio comms, meshnets, cryptocurrency, crypto, etc. Of course some govts would try to knock them down, physically, or via HERF...

Galloway destroys pro-Blair, pro-Iraq war "journalist". Unfortunately very low resolution (320x180), and audio (on this machine) needs to be Delayed by 0.6 seconds to synchronize properly - SOMEbody wants this to be difficult to listen to... George Galloway Vs Ill Informed Audience Member https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePkD0wl_7R0 ... Galloway: "You keep saying it's [Blair/ Iraq invasion] incompetence - my problem's not with their "incompetence", but with the idea that 'powerful countries have the right to occupy smaller, weaker countries." "I refused it in all of my familial life going back to my great grandfather, who left this country [UK] because he was an armed opponent of British occupation of Ireland." "I'm certainly not going to support British occupation of Iraq when I oppose the British occupation of Ireland."

Anglin - "ANGeL withIN" - artistic commentary on "Raised by Wolves" - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 01 Nov '20

01 Nov '20

Andrew Anglin, just as David Duke, is a trooper - in the constructive, persistent, creative, mission focussed and mission critical sense of that word. Word deconstruction of the day: Anglin - the Angel Within. Anglin is often vehement, often (oh horror of horrors) guilty of 'shock comedy' in its various forms, yet remains at all times an example for others, an encouragement to lost Souls to Find Themselves™©®, that timeless imploration to find you're own "angel within" - your Soul by any other word. Let no man come between you and God. Andrew happens to be quite the artist, and has for some years put his skills to great use in service of his causes - in the face of (as many of us have experienced, and continue to experience) incredible opposition, de-monetization, censorship, and even MULTIPLE thefts of domains, beginning with DailyStormer.com some years back. David Duke's journey has been no less epic, nor any less RIGHTEOUS and PRINCIPLED and conducted in DIGNITY, notwithstanding the haters who fail to either read past the "mainstream" demonisation to the actual source material, or further into any depth, to discover the true, and absolutely epic pathos, truth and facts, principles, history of discovery, failure, and lifting oneself up 100 times in the face of being beaten down again and again, over and over. For those able to get past the "mainstream" demonisation propagandia, a trove of truth, righteousness and principled men are in fellowship in this training we face, the epic setbacks, the dark nights of the Soul. Would you have it any other way? Get past the crap, the shock humour, the salty language, and gems sometimes appear: Many Women Write Love Letters to Man Who Killed Pregnant Wife and Two Baby Daughters https://dailystormer.su/many-women-write-love-letters-to-man-who-killed-pre… from fellowship to shared principles, journeys worthy, to the discovery of inherent dignity, notwithstanding. Can you undo your own internal "I'm triggered" program? Yes, the journey is sometimes confronting... If you have a moment longer, take a moment to appreciate that which, in this particular case Andrew Anglin brings to the table, an eternal offering to one and all: The First Episode of Raised by Wolves is the Single Best Piece of Audio-Visual Entertainment I’ve Seen in Years https://dailystormer.su/the-first-episode-of-raised-by-wolves-is-the-single… .. There are hints within the film that it contains some forbidden meaning, symbolism, depth. As far as I am able to tell, this is an absolute bluff. A pretentious attempt to turn the viewer into Stanley Fish, projecting his own meaning onto the material, which is left purposefully vague and opaque. But I know better than to expect anything more than a hint at depth. I am content with simple beauty, and a curt nod to the idea that something could conceivably exist beyond the bounds of the utopian Marxist hell in which we currently reside. The entire first episode is available for free on YouTube in full 1080. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIAIiw8UAfA I have only watched the first episode, and I cannot imagine that it gets any better in the remaining nine episodes (all of which have been released at time of writing). I may eventually watch more of these episodes, though I do fear it will pollute this first one, which means so much to me now. I know that none of the threads introduced will unravel into anything beneficial. I know it because that is impossible now. The series was made by HBO, and they would never allow it, nor do I believe that the writers would be capable of transmitting meaning even if they were allowed to do so. Watch it. Don’t look for meaning or expect anything from it. Just enjoy that it manifests beauty, and that it hints at the forbidden beyond, in a time when neither of those actions are permitted. It has broken the rules, and that is a monumental accomplishment. ... [if someone would bundle that as a torrent, that would make it available to us Ossies... TIA] Assuming everybody's favourite orange swamp drainer remains after Nov 3, short of any more practical alternative appearing, it shall behoove us to start packing any and every "weak" seat with red hat wearing swamp drainers, targetting 2022. Every weak fence sitter who holds a seat in any house, whether red or blue, shall be targetted for 2022 replacement by memeing, decorum grabbing, shirt eatin grinning, actual swamp drainers. We live in the world we currently have. Our task is to take stepc to move diligently with our fellow Souls towards the world we want. Take no shorncut, read whan you must read, learn what you must, meme what you must. We collectively have a chance to shift the game big time... no longer will the halls of power be left to those who directly oppose us. Seize the moment - seize YOUR moment... If you failed to properly read the above, go back and read it properly, for the sake of the world YOU wish to create. Create [y]our world muffa's ;)
