I get the feeling the BLM and the BORG are not making out and trying to make a baby in the hot springs these days. And there continue to be very anti-BRC politicians running for office in Pershing County. The previous agreement with Pershing expires in 2023. There is an organized regional lobby to abolish the event. So it may be a public MOOP map is not the best tool for today to minimize MOOP, especially if it is not working. Maybe we need neighboring camps to sweep and sign out each other?

I agree relations are strained, perhaps tenuous, and other groups are in play now. Maybe the choco tacos should have been hoarded in deep freeze and not made light of. On playa neighbors policing each other is not a bad idea, since folks grading their own tests isn’t proving reliable. But better yet, the org could show its commitment with a true moop map and a public list of who is being held accountable for violations, and not invited back as placed theme camps and not allowed favored tickets status. Stopping the problem is the priority, I feel. Would disapproving powers that be neighbors appreciate it as evidence that moop is actually taken seriously? Would it prevent repeat offenders? If the event can be cancelled because of it, what or who is being protected by discretion or better timing?

^ @Elorrum, exactly.

Vandals are suspected to have intentionally damaged electrical substations in Moore County on Saturday night, shutting off power to 45,000 customers and prompting law enforcement officers to accompany crews sent to make repairs.

Earlier in the day, protesters had gathered outside the Sunrise Theater in downtown Southern Pines, upset about a drag queen show planned for the small venue Saturday night.

On her Facebook page, Emily Grace Rainey* posted an invitation to the protest. After the lights went out out, Rainey, who became known in Moore County during the pandemic for her opposition to mask mandates, posted on Facebook that, “The power is out in Moore County and I know why,” and posted a picture of the Sunrise Theater, which was putting on the sold-out drag show, with the caption “God will not be mocked.”

Later, she posted that the Moore County Sheriff’s Office had come to her house to ask about the outage. “I welcomed them to my home,” wrote Rainey, who organized a group of Moore County residents to travel to Washington on January 6, 2021. “Sorry they wasted their time. I told them that God works in mysterious ways and is responsible for the outage.

I used the opportunity to tell them about the immoral drag show and the blasphemies screamed by its supporters.” Rainey said, “I told them God is chastising Moore County, thanked them for coming, and wished them a good night.

When the department of homeland security was given authority to monitor communications and surveil inside the country, wasn’t one of the intentions for giving up a whole lot of personal privacy, to be that it would protect infrastructure, airports, power stations etc. as potential terrorist targets? These power stations were targeted, and destroyed by gunfire, by people who knew what they were doing. I’m wondering who is monitoring the tremendous network established to prevent this stuff and if it can. If it is angry anti-drag protestors, they certainly are playing in the big league, and can’t do much worse as a group to injure the nation than multiple acts such as this. Authorities are not connecting the destruction to her yet, but Rainey is ex-military, “psychological” operations. I don’t know what that actually entails, but I am assuming she has training in counter terrorist tactics and knows what is going on here. Being elevated to star status doesn’t mean she’s a genius, but media light gives her power and influence, and I believe she has the will to wield it.

[some seeing eye]

Yes. We pay the FBI and homie security a lot of money to prevent this, and if it happens, catch the evil-doers and lock them up. There is also a "Cape Fear Proud Boys" which has been bullying drag events in Sanford, about half an hour away. And since our psyops crazy person lead a group to J6, the local seditionists probably know one another.

"As a Psychological Operations Specialist, you’ll be an expert at persuasion. You’ll assess and develop the information needed to influence and engage specific audiences. You’ll broadcast important information through various mediums and assist U.S. and foreign governments, militaries, and civilian populations."

Rainey held the rank of Captain. There may be a level of professional sophistication at the top of this that shouldn't be underestimated. This may not be just an anti masking citizen tearing down yellow tape at the playground, or carrying a picket sign at a drag show. That is likely her core "specific audience." She organized 100 people to go to the Jan. 6 riot/protest.

"The grid is viewed as a target, based on a series of incidents in recent years as well as online discussions in extremist and conspiracy-minded forums, because transmission lines and substations are often in remote, rural areas and causing outages may cause further frustration and divisions within American society, a federal law enforcement official said.“They feel that disrupting the electrical supply will disrupt the ability of government to operate,” the official said on condition of anonymity to discuss a report that has not been publicly released. “And, secondly, by conducting attacks against the communications and electrical infrastructure, it will actually accelerate the coming civil war that they anticipate because it will disrupt the lives of so many people that they will lose faith in government.”

Looks like the Dems are using the legal system to cover their butts again.

Just a day before SBF was to testify before congress re: FTX, a warrant is issued. Now he won't have to say anything and will be able to hide behind his lawyer.

Good job of limiting access to info on the tens of millions of dollars he gave to the Dems.

Bankman-Fried gave tens of millions to Democratic candidates and groups this cycle. He has said he also made large contributions to Republican political candidates, but did so in a way that hid the donations.

"All my Republican donations were dark," Bankman-Fried said in an interview last month.
"[R]eporters freak the f**k out if you donate to a Republican because they’re all super liberal. And I didn’t want to have that fight, so I just made all the Republican ones dark."
Bankman-Fried estimated he was actually the "second or third biggest" Republican donor in the country during the 2022 midterms but that he was able to shield those donations from public view.

Among that information is that an email on January 2, 2021, from January 6 rally organizer Katrina Pierson shows that Trump’s invitation to supporters to march on the Capitol was not spontaneous; it was part of the plan. By January 2, people knew that Trump would urge his followers to march to the Capitol. To another organizer, Pierson wrote: “POTUS expectations are to have something intimate at the ellipse, and call on everyone to march to the capitol. This actually works out, because Ali [Alexander]’s group is already setting up at the Capitol, and SCOTUS is on the way.”

Trump aides Bannon, Miller advising the Bolsonaros on next steps
Some allies and advisers want the Brazilian president to contest his election loss to Lula. Others want a global fight over free speech.

By Elizabeth Dwoskin and Gabriela Sá Pessoa
November 23, 2022 at 1:09 p.m. EST

RIO DE JANEIRO — While tens of thousands of supporters of President Jair Bolsonaro camp outside military facilities across Brazil to protest his election loss, members of Bolsonaro’s inner circle are meeting with advisers to former president Donald Trump to discuss next steps.
Are you on Telegram? Subscribe to our channel for the latest updates on Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Brazilian congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro, the president’s son, has visited Florida since the Oct. 30 vote, meeting Trump at Mar-a-Lago and strategizing with other political allies by phone. He spoke with former Trump strategist Stephen K. Bannon, who was in Arizona assisting the campaign of GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake, about the power of the pro-Bolsonaro protests and potential challenges to the Brazilian election results, Bannon said. He lunched in South Florida with former Trump campaign spokesman Jason Miller, now CEO of the social media company Gettr, and discussed online censorship and free speech, Miller said.

Neither Trump nor Eduardo Bolsonaro responded to requests for comment.

Those conversations have mirrored debates unfolding in Brasília, where Bolsonaro’s supporters are discussing next steps for his populist conservative movement. That movement is facing a reckoning not unlike that of the American right after Trump’s 2020 loss over how to sustain itself when its charismatic standard-bearer has been defeated.

The Brazilian right has some advantages heading into the new year, when leftist former president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva will take office. While Bolsonaro lost, his party and allies made gains in Congress and governorships. Tens of thousands of his supporters continue to camp outside military bases in over 20 cities, some calling for commanders to intervene in the vote.

Demonstrators have been photographed holding handmade signs reading “#BrazilianSpring” and “#BrazilWasStolen” in English, demonstrating the close ties between right-wing movements in the two countries. The phrases have trended on Brazilian Twitter several times this month. “Brazilian Spring” was coined shortly after the election by Bannon, he and others say; he has since dedicated several episodes of his podcast to an election he’s calling one of the most consequential political events in the world.

Some of Bolsonaro’s advisers, including Bannon, want him to contest the results, an effort that would probably fail but would encourage protesters. On Tuesday, Bolsonaro’s Liberal Party filed a request with Brazil’s Superior Electoral Court to invalidate the votes recorded by some 250,000 machines that were manufactured before 2020.
Fact-checkers say the inquiry is premised on false information about older machines.

Supreme Federal Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, the president of the electoral court, said the machines were used in both the first and second rounds, and said the party should also request a review of first-round votes — which could put at risk the election of its candidates who won. He gave the party 24 hours to respond.

Others want to move on to bigger fights that they believe could have greater international appeal. Central to this approach would be an attack on the legitimacy of the country’s top courts, which can kick people offline and arrest them if they post misinformation about the electoral process or other “anti-democratic content.” While many Brazilians see the courts as a bulwark of democracy, the judiciary is increasingly being accused by legal scholars of overreach and political targeting. Many rulings are sealed, and terms such as “misinformation” and “fake news” — the English phrase, used by Trump to describe coverage he found unflattering, is written into Brazilian law — have no clear definition.

Brazil’s supreme and electoral courts, which are among the most muscular regulators of online speech in any democratic nation, have in recent weeks ordered tech companies to remove the social media accounts of several pro-Bolsonaro politicians and journalists, and in September ordered raids at the homes of business executives accused of promoting election disinformation and defending a military coup in a WhatsApp group.
Bolsonaro has not conceded the loss, and has encouraged supporters to maintain their protests outside the military bases. But he has instructed his chief of staff to proceed with the transition to Lula’s administration, parts of which are continuing apace, people told The Washington Post.

Miguel Lago, executive director of the Rio-based think tank Institute for Health Policy Studies, said Bolsonaro’s three-week silence has “cost him critical time when he could have further rallied the troops.”
American friends, themselves reeling from the historic underperformance of Republicans in the U.S. midterm elections, are acting as cheerleaders and advisers. Bolsonaro and Trump built a strong alliance when both were in office, Trump seeing a kindred spirit in the bombastic, social media-driven Bolsonaro. Trump’s advisers were drawn to Bolsonaro’s love of guns, his nationalism, his willingness to antagonize Brazil’s long-standing allies and slash environmental regulations, and his embrace of culture wars.

Eduardo Bolsonaro, the president’s third son, was often the glue in relationships between the two worlds. He has made multiple trips to Mar-a-Lago during his father’s tenure and was in Washington during the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the Capitol. He helped bring the Conservative Political Action Conference to Brazil.

Some insiders say the Brazilian movement is bigger than any one leader.
“What’s happening in Brazil is a world event,” Bannon told The Post. “The people are saying they’ve been grossly disenfranchised. [The movement] has moved beyond the Bolsonaros in the way that in the U.S. it has moved beyond Trump.”

Brazilian congresswoman Carla Zambelli, a Bolsonaro supporter, also traveled to the United States after the election. In Washington, she tried to drum up international support after Brazil’s top court kicked her off social media this month, costing her nearly 10 million followers. She had chased a Lula supporter in São Paulo while wielding a gun and had encouraged protesters blocking highways after Bolsonaro’s loss, but the reasons for the ban are not publicly known. The full court ruling in her case has not been released.

Zambelli told The Post she met with several U.S. politicians to call for the restoration of her online megaphone and attempted to appeal the ban with the Organization of American States.

Zambelli said the idea that an elected official can be censored by an opaque court that is openly antagonistic to one party should resonate globally. She said she hoped to bring together politicians and supporters in both countries “on this international front for freedom of expression.”

Supporters of those whose social media use has been restricted by the court have tweeted messages to Elon Musk, Twitter’s new owner, to reinstate their accounts.

The restrictions impact only the feeds of Brazilian users. Twitter executives looked into them at the behest of Musk but determined that the company couldn’t unblock them without running afoul of the Brazilian government, according to a person familiar with the discussions, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe them freely.

Miller told The Post that Bolsonaro wasn’t running against Lula but against Brazil’s supreme court. He described it as a “supreme court, an attorney general, the FBI and the U.S. attorney all rolled up in one.” Gettr, his company, has appealed to the Brazilian court to restore Zambelli’s profile to its service.

João Gabriel Pontes, a constitutional lawyer affiliated with the State University of Rio de Janeiro, said the Brazilian right’s appeals to free speech ideas are disingenuous. Many of those who have been banned by the court have been accused of promoting disinformation, he said, and Brazilians do not believe that people should be able to say whatever they want online.
“It’s not the average person getting their posts taken down,” Pontes said. “It’s the business people and public figures — powerful people connected to the Bolsonaro family and to a network that is intentionally trying to discredit our electoral process.”

Did the Supreme Court’s Leak Investigation Let the Justices Off the Hook?

"The Supreme Court has published a long-awaited report on the leaked draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the decision last summer that ended the constitutional right to abortion. So far, the major focus seems to be on what the investigation failed to uncover: A team of “seasoned attorneys and trained federal investigators” was “unable to identify a person responsible” for the leak.

But a deeper dive into the report reveals a second point that is just as important. For as carefully as investigators scrutinized every court employee who had access to the draft opinion, the report is silent about whether nine specific individuals who had the means to leak the opinion were questioned: the Supreme Court justices.

That silence is significant. In releasing the report, the justices may have hoped to move beyond the ugly finger pointing and loss of trust that the leak incited. What may result instead is increased suspicion of the justices themselves." (continues)

Report: https://www.supremecourt.gov/publicinfo ... 9_2023.pdf

Not really believable: "The investigators were not able to readily search and analyze all event logs because at the time the system lacked substantial logging and search functions. "

"The draft majority opinion was also distributed in hard copy to some Chambers."
