Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

BREAKING: AG Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel have reportedly submitted documents to Congress revealing the Clinton Foundation took donations from foreign and domestic sources seeking influence.“
Officials told Just the News that the documents were transmitted to the Senate Judiciary Committee in recent days and detail numerous instances of foreigners and even a U.S. defense contractor seeking to curry favor with the Clintons through donations to their family charity, including when Hillary Clinton served as secretary of State. Bill Clinton was a U.S. president from 1993 to 2001.”“
The officials said some of the evidence was flagged by whistleblowers who claimed such evidence was kept from a corruption investigation that was being conducted in 2015 by the Little Rock, Ark., U.S. attorney’s office before it was shut down by the Obama administration's Justice Department.”
What good will come from this, Congress is useless
New report on the Barack Obama Affordable Care Act shows-

Breaking new 2020 election scandal! Soros ran a $500 million organized plan called “Partnership for Safe Voting”, to ADMINISTER the 2020 election to benefit Democrats!
This included utilizing the Brennan Center to litigate. We are talking drop boxes, ballot deadlines, fighting fraud allegations, ballot curing, etc… And the Brennan Center was even involved in audits! They did this as a member of the Soros Neo Philanthropies State infrastructure funds, Voting Rights Working Group.
Laleh Ispahani as Co-Director of Open Society-U.S. created the “Partnership for Safe Voting”. This ran under Neo Philanthropies State Infrastructure Fund plus other orgs. She was promoted to executive director of OSF after this.“
Last year, she ( Laleh Ispahani ) created and co-chaired the Partnership for Safe Voting, a large philanthropic partnership to protect voting in the face of the pandemic, voter suppression, and disinformation which raised over $500 million for front-line organizations.”
Joe Goldman, President of the Omidyar Democracy Fund, and a member org of Soros Democracy Alliance also co-chaired the Partnership For Safe Voting. “
Our grantees provided crucial technical assistance and education to local election administrators adopting mail-in voting, implemented health protocols at polling centers, and recruited thousands of much-needed poll workers.”
Multiple pieces of software created to protect the 2020 election were created by the Trump resistance. The same people that colluded under Soros master plan.
Protect Democracy ran the Transition Integrity Project that was mentioned in the Times fortification article. They ran both Voteshield and Ballotshield in 2020. Lisa Monaco was involved in Voteshield too!
Rabed-v and the misinformation reporting portal were funded by the Joe Goldmans Democracy fund.
Joe Goldman, the co-chair of the Partnership For Safe Voting, admitted that they were partisan hacks even tho running 501 c3 charities to do this! All of this election collusion stuff they did was to benefit the Democrats!“
we are anchored in our values, not this sense that the ultimate goal is actually some kind of bipartisan stance.”“
And worries about entire sets of nonprofits having their 501c3 status revoked, which I'm sure you'll remember there was a period in April where everybody said that's coming and then it didn't come.”“
They can come after my501c3 status. They can target my staff or myself. But I am far more protected than those on the front line.” (Protected? How?)
Obviously they got more money than they intended. Here’s the Democracy Funders Network (DFN) call for funding. DFN is ran by Rachel Pritzker and Mike Berkowicz. DFN also put a call in for funding the TRANSITION INTEGRITY PROJECT ran by Protect Democracy and mentioned in The Times election fortification article:
(And trust me, there’s going to be more later on DFN .)“
Attend this funder briefing with Joe Goldman of the Democracy Fund, Laleh Ispahani of the Open Society Foundation, and Scott Moyer of the Langeloth Foundation to learn about the Partnership for Safe Voting 2020, an ambitious initiative being launched by several philanthropic partners in an effort to raise and align $168 million in c3 and c4 resources to ensure the elections are safe, accessible, and secure.”
According to Mike Berkowicz, who was co-founder of DFN with Rachel Pritzker, the 2020 election was all about philanthropy:
Mike Berkowitz: philanthropy wound up having to play a role in election administration itself for the first time in history
Robert Wiblin: Just to be clear, you’re saying philanthropists were funding the operation of the election, like the existence of polling places and things. I saw that and I couldn’t believe it.
Mike Berkowitz: For instance, there was an actually not great Time magazine piece by Molly Ball on this a few weeks ago that talked about it in really conspiratorial terms. Sourcing will take many hours, enjoy!
Black dude stole something from her while that was going on. Young white chick... Probably voted for Mamdami.
That Islamic, goat fucking, sister marrying, blow yourself up money is scrong!
He must be compensated handsomely, because I couldn’t do it otherwise.

The census and voter id requirements are so essential it’s not even a question. Most important component coming up
1. I don’t believe this “poll.”
2. Did you vote in this election? I didn’t because we didn’t have an election in my area (at least not that I could find and I looked to make sure I wasn’t missing out). Elections in blue states and sampling voters in blue states doesn’t mean Trump is losing support.
3. All of this gets fixed with a legit census and citizen voter id requirements. I’ll hold my breath that Congress will actually do something.
Amazing post

Non-story imo.
If the 98% loss in dollar value since 1971 were fully reversed—restoring the currency’s purchasing power to pre-gold standard levels—your $50,000 annual income would suddenly carry the equivalent buying power of about $2.5 million in today’s terms (a 50x multiplier, based on the scale of that devaluation). This isn’t just numbers on a paycheck; it would transform everyday life into a realm of effortless abundance and security that most people only dream about. Here’s what that restored reality might feel like, broken down across key aspects of lifeaily Essentials and Comforts
Housing and Home Life
- Groceries and Dining: A weekly supermarket run for a family of four, which might cost $200-300 today, would feel like pocket change—equivalent to just $4-6 in your enhanced dollar terms. You’d stock up on premium organic everything, imported specialties, or even hire a personal chef without blinking, turning meals into indulgent events rather than budgeted chores.
- Transportation: Filling up a luxury SUV with gas? Negligible. That $100 tank today equates to $2 in your restored power. Commuting could mean upgrading to a fleet of high-end electric vehicles, or ditching cars altogether for chauffeured rides, private helicopters for longer trips, or even owning a yacht for weekend escapes—mobility as pure freedom, not a hassle.
Leisure, Travel, and Experiences
- Shelving Space: Renting a modest apartment ($1,500/month today) would feel like paying $30/month in real terms, but why stop there? You’d snap up a sprawling waterfront mansion or urban penthouse (say, $2 million purchase price) as if it were a $40,000 starter home. Multiple properties become normal— one for city work, a vacation retreat in the mountains, and a beach house— all fully staffed and customized, with home theaters, pools, and smart tech that make “home” feel like a five-star resort.
- Utilities and Maintenance: Bills that nibble at budgets today (electricity, internet, landscaping) vanish into irrelevance, freeing mental space for enjoyment over penny-pinching.
Savings, Security, and Long-Term Peace
- Vacations: A family trip to Europe, clocking in at $10,000 today for flights, hotels, and activities, would register like a $200 weekend getaway. Jet-setting becomes routine—private charters to exotic islands, safaris in Africa, or cultural immersions in Asia, multiple times a year, with no packing stress or credit card anxiety. It’s the difference between scrolling travel blogs and living them as your default lifestyle.
- Hobbies and Entertainment: Season tickets to pro sports, Broadway shows, or music festivals? Trivial. That $500 concert feels like $10. You’d fund passion projects—art collecting, vintage car restoration, or philanthropy—turning free time into legacy-building adventures, not scrolling Netflix.
In essence, $50,000 with full value restoration wouldn’t just elevate your lifestyle; it would redefine possibility, making scarcity a forgotten concept and abundance your new normal. Of course, this assumes the broader economy adapts smoothly (e.g., wages and asset prices recalibrating), but the personal freedom would be intoxicating.
- Wealth Building: Investing $10,000 a year (today’s equivalent of $200 in restored terms) compounds into a fortress of financial independence. Retirement? Optional by age 30. You’d amass generational wealth effortlessly, with buffers for healthcare, education ( Ivy League tuitions feeling like community college fees), or unexpected joys like surprise gifts to loved ones.
- The Emotional Shift: No more “living paycheck to paycheck” dread. Debt? A relic. Inflation’s shadow lifts, so your money works for you, not against it. It feels like shedding invisible weights—stress melts into quiet confidence, relationships deepen without money fights, and decisions pivot from “can I afford it?” to “does it spark joy?” You’d embody the unhurried ease of old-money heirs, but earned through this systemic reset, fostering gratitude amid the plenty.
Taking out a 50-year mortgage for a $400,000 home at 7% interest would, in today’s terms, lock you into monthly payments of about $2,407—eating up roughly half your take-home pay on that $50,000 salary we discussed, stretching affordability thin over decades with interest ballooning the total cost to over $1.44 million. It’s the classic weight of homeownership: a milestone laced with stress, skipped vacations, and ramen nights.But if the 98% dollar devaluation since 1971 were fully reversed—restoring 50x the buying power—the entire equation flips into a surreal breeze. That $400,000 home suddenly feels like snagging an $8,000 cottage in 1971 terms: quaint, achievable, and almost whimsical. The monthly payment? It registers as a negligible $48—less than a couple of coffees or a streaming subscription. Here’s how that restored reality reshapes the “mortgage life,” turning obligation into afterthought:
Non-story imo.
How many of those do we already have on our subs?
Different platform from what I read. These are designed to be fired from air... But just saw this and looked it up briefly. I'd assume we have a variant for subs and ground launch.
Great podcast. This dude was on the Bin Laden raid and wrote a book afterwards. Government sued him even though they agreed there was no classified material in his book. He owes the government more money than he made serving 13 combat tours. It will take him longer to pay them off than what he served in the SEAL teams.
Hopefully Pete gets involved and fires everyone involved in going after him. Looks like they got upset that his book came out before zero dark thirty movie and he bashed obama and paneta a couple times in the book. This is what allowing legtoizb+ weirdos and dei hires into the military has brought us... we punish heroes to make the pussy commanders look good.
Flying low over California I assume they wanted to leak this without "leaking" it.
Not top secret, they know, and now we are showing them they are in full rate production.
Different type of weapon.
The time of the silent professional died with this book. Everyone (especially SEALS) jumped on the book writing gig. Sure its not classified, but it releases Essential Elements of Friendly Information EEFI's, and when put together can be very revealing about operations and how they are conducted.

Been running around all damn day, so I’m late to the party. I know we have a bunch of US military vets here. I want to say thank you to all of you (even you Navy guys!) for your sacrifice and willingness to defend this great republic.
