A Cambodian genocide survivor nearly lost her retirement savings through Goldco — the same company Loomer endorsed. Gold markups of 86% above spot. Gold doubled. The investor still lost money. That’s not volatility. That’s the grift. #AntiCorruption
The punchline: Carlson exposed gold scams targeting the elderly. Then he launched his OWN gold company (Battalion Metals) in November 2025.“Stop buying gold from grifters. Buy it from me instead.” — The subtext.
Hijackers in CA stole 400K tins of Carlson’s nicotine pouches. Loomer celebrated, then filed an FDA complaint against the brand. Carlson’s response: a 35-min doc naming Loomer for endorsing gold companies that rip off elderly viewers. #FollowTheMoney
MAGA Grifter Thunderdome: Tucker Carlson and Laura Loomer are trying to destroy each other’s businesses.The real victims? Elderly viewers losing retirement savings. A thread 🧵
One week
The public responded: • Claude hit #1 in Apple App Store • ChatGPT uninstalls surged 295% • 500+ tech workers signed an open letter • QuitGPT boycott launched. Even OpenAI employees are furious. All sources linked at dekleptocracy.start.page
In a leaked memo, Anthropic CEO Amodei told employees why Trump targeted them: • Didn't donate to Trump • Supported AI regulation • Told the truth about job displacement • Refused to produce "safety theater" $0 to Trump = blacklisted.
Sen. Wyden: "Creating AI profiles of Americans based on that data represents a chilling expansion of mass surveillance." Location data. Browsing history. Mental health records. Political affiliations. All available for pennies. Now with AI.

NSA intercepted foreign intel officials calling Kushner the real Iran decision-maker. They said that’s why they “invested” billions with him. A whistleblower filed a complaint. It sat in a safe for 8 months. The law requires 21 days.
MBS made multiple private calls to Trump, pushing for military action — while publicly calling for diplomacy. U.S. intelligence assessed no imminent threat. Washington Post, Feb 28, 2026
Jared Kushner took $2 billion from Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund. Collected $87 million in fees. Returned zero profits. Then his biggest investor lobbied for war with Iran.Thread —

New Mexico proved that states can act. AG Torrez reopened Zorro Ranch. Truth Commission, subpoena power, $2M budget. SB 41 passed 40 to 1, eliminating child sex crime statutes. NY AG James and FL AG Uthmeier have the same authority and have announced nothing. #AntiCorruption
The U.S. Treasury holds $1.5 billion in Epstein-related transaction files, including wire transfers from Russian banks. Deutsche Bank's Frankfurt HQ was raided this January in a money-laundering probe covering the exact same 2013 to 2018 window as Epstein's 40+ accounts. @prchovanec.bsky.social
Leon Black paid Epstein $158 to $170 million from 2012 to 2017 - the largest known payment in the network. He paid $62.5M for immunity from USVI criminal prosecution, with the settlement explicitly acknowledging Epstein used that money to fund island operations.
The Commerce Secretary of the United States took a family lunch on Epstein's island in 2012. Records show contact through 2018. He told the Senate it was "minimal." Yesterday, he agreed to testify before Congress. The rest still haven't been asked.
The Kremlin, Epstein, and Silicon Valley's biggest investors. All connected through one fund. No charges filed. The documents are public. Support independent anti-corruption work: buff.ly/lj2lYNS #AntiCorruption #FollowTheMoney
