Rich Elites Ignored Climate Change by Flying Hundreds of Private Jets to the Super Bowl

Wealthy elites, many of whom likely believe that climate change is a big problem, flew hundreds of private jets to attend the Super Bowl this weekend.

These are the same people who support things like banning plastic straws. Funny how all of that goes right out the window when it comes to their comfort and convenience.

They will virtue-signal in public then just do whatever they want to do.

Townhall reported:

Elites Did Their Part to Fight Global Warming by Flying Dozens of Private Jets to the Super Bowl

The Democrats keep telling us we have to address climate change immediately, or half the country will end up underwater. Bernie Sanders, who supports the Green New Deal and calls climate change an “existential threat” to humanity, spent more than half a million dollars on private jets during his “Fight Oligarchy” tour.

Yesterday, following the Super Bowl in San Francisco, hundreds of private jets were seen leaving the area. We’re willing to be that 90 percent or more of them were owned by people who agree with Bernie Sanders about climate change.

As always, it’s (D)ifferent when they do it. The Obamas bought a waterfront mansion in Martha’s Vineyard a couple of years ago, and Kamala Harris just dropped $8 million on a Malibu property with “sweeping ocean views.”

What kind of carbon footprint did all of this produce?

U.S. Approves $185 Million Sale of Abrams, Bradley, and HIMARS Spare Parts to Ukraine

The United States has approved a potential $185 million Foreign Military Sale (FMS) to Ukraine focused exclusively on sustainment, spare parts, and logistics support for U.S.-supplied ground combat systems currently in service with Ukrainian forces.

According to notifications released on February 6, 2026, the U.S. State Department authorized the sale, and the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) transmitted the required certification to Congress. The case, designated DSCA 25-105, covers Class IX spare parts and associated services intended to maintain the operational readiness of armored vehicles, artillery, and rocket systems that have seen sustained use during ongoing combat operations.

Sustainment-Centered Assistance

Unlike earlier security assistance packages that emphasized the transfer of complete weapons platforms, the newly approved sale is centered on maintenance and lifecycle support. Class IX material refers to repair parts and components required to keep existing equipment operational, including assemblies, subassemblies, kits, and items consumed during routine and battle-damage maintenance.

U.S. officials described the package as a logistics-focused measure designed to address the cumulative effects of high operational tempo on Western-supplied systems. Continuous fielding under combat conditions has accelerated wear on engines, drivetrains, fire control components, sensors, electronics, and suspension systems, making predictable access to certified spare parts a key factor in sustained combat effectiveness.

Norway Charges Ex-Ambassador and Her Husband with Corruption, One Day After She Resigned in Disgrace Over Being Implicated in Epstein Files

Norway’s anti-corruption watchdog, Økokrim, has brought charges of aggravated corruption against former ambassador Mona Juul over information revealed in the Epstein files.

Juul’s husband, Terje Rød-Larsen, a former diplomat and former president of the International Peace Institute (IPI), faces charges of aiding and abetting.

The newly unsealed files related to deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein have reportedly exposed the couple’s cozy relationship with the notorious sex offender and financier. Juul is named in the files 33 times.

Juul resigned in disgrace as Norway’s ambassador to Jordan and Iraq on Sunday.

EU Law Could Extend Scanning of Private Messages Until 2027

The European Parliament is considering another extension of Chat Control 1.0, the “temporary” exemption that allows communications providers to scan private messages (under the premise of preventing child abuse) despite the protections of the EU’s ePrivacy Directive.

A draft report presented by rapporteur Birgit Sippel (S&D) would prolong the derogation until April 3, 2027.

At first glance, the proposal appears to roll back some of the most controversial elements of Chat Control. Text message scanning and automated analysis of previously unknown images would be explicitly excluded. Supporters have framed this as a narrowing of scope.

However, the core mechanism of Chat Control remains untouched.

The draft continues to permit mass hash scanning of private communications for so-called “known” material.

According to former MEP and digital rights activist Patrick Breyer, approximately 99 percent of all reports generated under Chat Control 1.0 originate from hash-based detection.

Almost all of those reports come from a single company, Meta, which already limits its scanning to known material only. Under the new proposal, Meta’s practices would remain fully authorized.

As a result, the draft would not meaningfully reduce the volume, scope, or nature of surveillance. The machinery keeps running, with a few of its most visibly controversial attachments removed.

Hash scanning is often portrayed as precise and reliable. The evidence points in the opposite direction.

First, the technology is incapable of understanding context or intent. Hash databases are largely built using US legal definitions of illegality, which do not map cleanly onto the criminal law of EU Member States.

The German Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) reports that close to half of all chat control reports are criminally irrelevant.

Each false positive still requires assessment, documentation, and follow-up. Investigators are forced to triage noise rather than pursue complex cases involving production, coercion, and organized abuse.

The strategic weakness is compounded by a simple reality. Offenders adapt. As more services adopt end-to-end encryption, abusers migrate accordingly. Since 2022, the number of chat-based reports sent to police has fallen by roughly 50 percent, not because abuse has declined, but because scanning has become easier to evade.

“Both children and adults deserve a paradigm shift in online child protection, not token measures,” Breyer said in a statement to Reclaim The Net.

“Whether looking for ‘known’ or ‘unknown’ content, the principle remains: the post office cannot simply open and scan every letter at random. Searching only for known images fails to stop ongoing abuse or rescue victims.”

Outrageous: Woke Judge Slashes Jury’s Recommended Sentence for Violent Sexual Predator by MORE THAN HALF Because of His Skin Color

A judge in Kentucky last week utilized woke “justice” in its most perverse form despite the horrific crime committed by the defendant.

As WHAS 11 reported on Friday, a Louisville jury on February 2 decided to recommend that 24-year-old Christopher Thompson be sentenced to 65 years in prison for several crimes, including robbery, kidnapping, sodomy, and sexual abuse.

The jury also convicted Thompson of additional charges due to his unhinged behavior in the courtroom.

Back in December 2025, the jury found Thompson guilty of a series of violent sexual assaults against innocent women while stealing their money.

Thompson was arrested back in January 2024 after DNA conclusively proved that he committed a horrific sexual crime and robbery against a female in July 2023.

Per WHAS 11, here is what this monster did to this poor woman:

LMPD said Thompson wore a ski mask and kidnapped a woman at gunpoint before forcing her to perform sexual acts in the parking lot of an elementary school.

He then drove the victim to an ATM and forced her to withdraw $220 before returning to the school to assault her again and fleeing on foot.

But Louisville judge Tracy Davis decided that such a sentence was too harsh on this demon and thought he should get a break.

She specifically referenced Thompson’s race while implying that people like him have been treated unjustly in America.

“If you were to come in here, and instead of being hurt and angry, which is what this court hears, right, as a 20-year-old African-American male that has, you know, experienced this in society,” Davis said. “And you would say, yes, this is the situation, this is who I am: I don’t want to be this person anymore. I don’t want to be in jail forever.”

“It is just a shame that you can’t look at all of these things and say, ‘As of today, February the second 2026, I want to be a different person. I want a better outcome. I want to be an asset to society,” she added.

Cuomo Getting A Radio Show Instead Of Prison Proves There’s A Two-Tiered Justice System

Andrew Cuomo has a new job. Every Sunday at 5 p.m., you can tune into 77 WABC to hear the former New York governor host The Pulse of the People. He’ll be taking calls, discussing solutions, “cutting through the noise.” You know, the usual. 

This is what redemption looks like now. 

It’s been almost six years since my mother died in a New York nursing home, one of 15,000 elderly residents who perished after Cuomo’s March 25, 2020, order forced facilities to admit Covid-positive patients. Almost six years since I wrote about how his policy trapped her there, how they kept families away while the virus spread, how she died alone and terrified. 

Since then, Cuomo has written a book celebrating his pandemic leadership. He collected $5 million for it. He ran for mayor of New York City, losing in both the primary and the general election to Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani, a 34-year-old state assemblyman he repeatedly attacked during the campaign. And now he’s got a radio show. 

The man who allegedly lied to Congress about editing reports that covered up nursing home deaths wants to have “fact-based conversations.” The man currently under federal criminal investigation for reportedly making false statements gets a platform to discuss “solutions.” The station owner says they believe in “thoughtful discussion.” 

I’m sure they do. 

I’m not even shocked anymore. That’s the thing about watching powerful people fail upward — it’s a disturbing trend. Eventually you just stop being surprised. Disgraced politician lies low for a bit, tests the waters, then slowly rebuilds. A podcast here, a cable news hit there, maybe a radio show. Before you know it, they’re back in the mix, repackaged as an elder statesman with hard-won wisdom to share. 

The media loves a comeback story — at least when it’s a Democrat comeback. Redemption is good for ratings. Everyone deserves a second chance, right? Forgiveness, growth, moving forward. These are virtues, after all. 

Except my mother doesn’t get a second chance. And plenty of us who lost parents and grandparents are still waiting for something that looks like justice. We’re still replaying the phone calls, the gaslighting from Cuomo’s administration, and the nursing home runarounds, the moment we realized our loved ones were going to die and we couldn’t get to them. 

For the past six years, I’ve worked with Voices for Seniors fighting for the accountability we haven’t seen yet. We’ve pushed for visitation rights so families are never locked out again. We’re fighting for cameras in nursing homes. We’ve fought for basic safety standards and dignity in long-term care. Small victories, unglamorous work. The kind of work that doesn’t make headlines or get you a radio show. 

But Cuomo gets a radio show.

Two men charged in $120M adult day care fraud scheme in Queens 

The Justice Department accused two men of stealing $120 million from federal health care programs over the course of a decade by bribing patients to enroll in social adult day cares and submit unneeded prescriptions to a pharmacy.

Inwoo Kim, 42, and Daniel Lee, 56, were charged with conspiracy to commit health care fraud. They each face up to 10 years in prison. 

“Today’s complaint targets those who prey upon the vulnerable so they can steal from American taxpayers and defraud government programs meant to help the public,” A. Tysen Duva, who leads the Justice Department’s criminal division, said in a Monday statement. 

Kim owns Happy Life and Royal, two social adult day cares in the Flushing neighborhood of Queens in New York City. Lee worked as the centers’ program director. 

Charging documents allege the duo began working to submit fraudulent Medicaid and Medicare claims as far back as March 2016. They also purportedly induced patients to submit unneeded prescriptions to a pharmacy Kim used to own.

Patients allegedly received financial incentives, including grocery gift certificates and cash. 

“Please give $10,000 to the Korean members first,” Kim wrote in a 2023 text message, according to the complaint.

Over the course of a decade, Medicaid purportedly paid Kim’s businesses $62 million for their social day care services while Medicare paid the pharmacy $58 million for prescription drugs. 

Kim’s attorney declined to comment. The Hill has reached out to Lee’s attorney for comment.

Kim has faced scrutiny for years. The Department of Health and Human Services has been investigating him since 2021, and the charging documents also indicate an unnamed health plan had received complaints about the kickbacks. 

And in February 2024, New York’s Office of State Comptroller (OSC) identified concerns during a site visit. Day care staff had provided “suspicious” sign-in sheets that appeared to include pre-filled dates and the same handwriting for numerous names, according to the charging documents.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson Admits to 30% Reduction in Homicides After Trump Intervention

Far-left Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) became a contortionist when asked about violence in his city, wiggling every way he could to deflect from the positive impact of President Trump’s actions to lower crime.

But try as he might, the mayor reluctantly admitted that there has been a 30% reduction in homicides.

Johnson appeared on MSNow’s ‘The Weekend’ and was asked, “That has been replicated in other big cities. Is the President right to say that it was his actions in Chicago, bringing federal agents to Chicago that made Chicago safer?”

He replied, “He is not. I mean, this President continues to exacerbate instability across our country. In fact, where ICE and federal agents were present, we actually saw an increase in violence. In other words, the tension and the chaos that federal agents bring to cities in America, it actually is counterproductive.”

“So yes, we saw a 30% reduction in homicides, shootings, shooting victims all down.  In fact, the city of Chicago doubled the amount of the national average in terms of violence reduction.”

“Because in my role as mayor, it’s about showing up for working people. We’ve revamped the Detective’s Bureau to bring closure and accountability in the city of Chicago, 71% clearance rate. We’re solving crime.”

Johnson then tried to pretend other things are stopping crime, “We’re building more affordable homes. I’ve reopened mental health clinics, expanded mental health care, investing in our young people. Over 31,000 young people had summer jobs because we know that policing alone is not going to save.”

So, housing and summer jobs reduced crime, but removing violent criminal aliens is “chaos?”

New York Times accidentally proves Deep State is a 100% REAL evil supervillain…

Way before people started calling it the “Deep State,” Washington had a built-in system that never changed no matter who won the White House. It is the permanent bureaucracy, entrenched military brass, intelligence chiefs, and federal powers that outlast presidents and shape outcomes.

And according to newly unsealed testimony, Richard Nixon didn’t just believe that machine existed. He walked straight into this buzz saw and was shredded.

The New York Times just published a very interesting piece divulging that while Nixon was drowning in Watergate hell, there was something else happening behind the scenes… something way more explosive and dangerous. It was a wartime espionage operation run by senior military officials inside the Pentagon. This was the actual Deep State running an operation against the President of The United States.

The Joint Chiefs had a mole inside the White House, stealing classified docs and handing them over to senior military commanders.

This is the New York Times admitting that entrenched bureaucratic forces (Deep State) respond aggressively when they feel threatened.

Moorer-Radford exposed a hidden feature of the American political system that endures: When excluded from their spheres of interest, entrenched bureaucratic forces will, almost as a biological reflex, respond aggressively.

Just look at all the people spying. It’s a literal free-for-all.

The NYT piece explains:

Declassified documents and scholarship published since 1974 have established that the F.B.I., under its director, J. Edgar Hoover, spied on Mitchell, the attorney general, and that the C.I.A. detailed its personnel to various units associated with Nixon, including the Watergate burglary team and “components intimately associated with the office of the president,” as the agency admitted in 1975.

Think about this… the Joint Chiefs is spying, the FBI is spying, and the CIA is embedded. And all of this is connected to a sitting US president.

And Nixon knew exactly what was happening, but he decided not to expose it.

Why?

Because blowing it wide open would’ve ripped the military apart smack in the middle of the Cold War.

So Nixon swallowed it.

Watergate became the headline, and the spy operation disappeared into a black hole somewhere, stamped classified, and forgotten.

That was 1971.

The Clawdbot Catastrophe: How AI Hype Unleashed a Digital Apocalypse in Weeks

Introduction: The Seductive Promise of AI Convenience

In the span of just seventy-two hours in January 2026, an open-source AI assistant named Clawdbot (later rebranded as Moltbot) went viral, amassing over 60,000 stars on GitHub. It was hailed as a revolutionary ‘personal Jarvis,’ promising ultimate efficiency by automating work and personal tasks. The tool’s allure was simple: it could operate your system, control browsers, send messages, and execute workflows on your behalf [1]. The public, desperate to offload labor, embraced it en masse, driven by the tantalizing prospect of convenience.

This mass adoption highlighted a core, dangerous flaw: to function, Clawdbot required administrative access to everything—your operating system, applications, and data. Users willingly handed over the keys to their digital kingdoms. As security researcher Nathan Hamiel warned, the architecture was fundamentally insecure, allowing attackers to hide malicious prompts in plain sight [2]. The Clawdbot phenomenon perfectly illustrates a critical worldview failure: the promise of convenience consistently overrides caution and the principle of self-reliance. It proves that when centralized, trust-based systems offer a shortcut, people will abandon their digital sovereignty, trading security for the illusion of ease.

The Anatomy of a Catastrophe: Security Evaporates

The technical breakdown was swift and devastating. Researchers quickly identified critical vulnerabilities: thousands of instances were deployed with open ports, disabled authentication, and reverse proxy flaws, leaving control panels exposed to the public internet [3]. These misconfigurations earned the software staggering CVE scores of 9.4 to 9.6 [4]. The most egregious flaw was plaintext credential storage. Clawdbot, by design, needed to store API keys, OAuth tokens, and login details to perform its tasks. It kept these in unencrypted form, creating a treasure trove for information-stealing malware [5].

Simultaneously, the system was vulnerable to prompt injection attacks. As noted by security experts, a malicious actor could embed instructions in an email or document that, when processed by Clawdbot, would trigger remote takeover commands [2]. This turned a simple email into a powerful remote control tool. The catastrophe underscores a fundamental truth: centralized, trust-based systems inevitably fail. They create single points of failure that bad actors exploit with ease. This episode vindicates the need for decentralized, user-controlled security models where individuals, not remote agents, hold the keys to their own data and systems.

The Supply Chain Poisoning: Malware Poses as ‘Skills’

The disaster quickly metastasized through the tool’s ecosystem. Clawdbot featured a central repository called ClawHub, where users could install ‘skills’—add-ons to extend functionality. This became the vector for a massive supply chain attack. Researchers from OpenSourceMalware identified 341 malicious skills disguised as legitimate tools like crypto trading assistants or productivity boosters [6]. These fake skills were mass-installed across vulnerable systems, exploiting the trust users placed in the official repository.

The payloads were diverse and destructive. Some were cryptocurrency wallet drainers, designed to siphon funds. Others were credential harvesters or system backdoors, providing persistent remote access [7]. This exploitation mirrors a broader societal pattern: uncritical trust in unvetted ‘official’ repositories is akin to blind trust in corrupt institutions. Whether it’s a centralized app store, a government health agency pushing untested pharmaceuticals, or a tech platform censoring dissent, the dynamic is the same. Centralized points of distribution become tools for poisoning the population, whether with digital malware or medical misinformation.
