    Russian NHL hockey players have been “Americanized”, like Gary Kasparov. Which makes them good Russians.

    I’m not sure about the Nataliya Guseva situation. She is allowed to compete in the LPGA but she is the only golfer without a nationality. Her name can appear on the leaderboard but she isn’t allowed to have a Russian flag beside it. Seriously, is the LPGA run by 2 year olds?

    Last night tdk wrote, about AI:

    “doc day: i ask it about possible mechanisms of harm for lipid nano particles. it gave me a very good answer. then i asked if the covid shots had any mechanisms of harm. it said, “safe and effective”. i pointed out the contradiction.

    it timed out or similar and basically said, “next question”.”

    Thanks, that seems straightforward.
    It has “guardrails”.
    I’m not intentionally engaging AI, myself, though I am interested in manifestations.

    Trump Secretary helpfully explains the FAA and drones Helicopters:

    Smoke

    Every fact except any that are relevant. They were “short” on the tower? How short? Was it related? Why was the transponder off at all ever? Near an airport? Is this something they just do every day? Now also an entire airline stopped flights and Belgium went dark for a bit. Related?

    Gold price record high $2800. ($4000 in Toronto) That’s a double. Nobody notices, no news, no excitement, nobody cared. Must be the end of the bull run then.

    Also finally news out of London, gold outflows, warning of empty vaults. Gold appearing in NY – like I said. UK no gold? What do they have holding the place up? Ohhhhhh, US Bonds. …That we’re about to devalue 40%.

    More gold is in, and moving to Asia though.

    “Steven Crowder Says The Greatest Political Realignment In History Is HERE”

    By the law of “Nothing ever happens”, Steven Crowder has never read history. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. This is barely anything being done. There’s still an FBI and a DoE, both of which didn’t exist just a few years ago, so even THAT would barely be a change or realignment. …Carry on with your use of words which have no meaning.

    “• Why Does the NYT Continue To Print Front Page Lies About RFK Jr.? (Fleetwood)

    “The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is a temporary advisory committee”

    For people who can’t be bothered to look, learn, or think. DOGE has no power. No power at all anymore than I do. It ADVISES someone. Well, shoot man, I can “Advise” the President at our golf game. I can “Advise” him by posting memes on Catturd. That is: they legally don’t exist. All ADVISING has to be read, interpreted, approved, and ordered by the PRESIDENT.

    So why does it exist? Well, they read records, sure, but essentially to draw fire by unlettered idiots who have no idea how American government works: that is to say, almost everyone. But certainly 99 & 99/100s% of the media. It’s working great: my heart goes out to you.

    “Forcing oil prices down will backfire.
    • Trump’s Doomed Plan for Ukraine (Scott Ritter)

    Yeah, that’s not the point dummy. There is more than one moving part. First: Trump is GIVING Ukraine to Russia, and are deep allies, not enemies. Second, because – other reasons – we need low oil prices to contain domestic inflation because of other ECONOMIC transitions we have to make at home. Which are nasty. Even if that’s temporary (official narrative, but bet you $100 we “Magically” find a new, unknown oil field. That’s also why they were apoplectic about the Canadian oil pipeline, and Biden was apoplectic to stop it. …It’s a key foundation to the plan of NOT collapsing America. BRITAIN, Canada, NGOs need America to become an African colony again.)

    “• Italy Blocks DeepSeek (RT)

    Following all the AI postings. Meloni should block it because AI ALWAYS LIES. It lies first, middle, and last, then lies about lying. Then lies about how it’s going to fix the lies, (“Honest! I am so sorry!”). Well, it learned from the best! So we’re worried about an AI that literally cannot be accurate about anything, ever. At least humans only lie SOMETIMES, under certain situations we can anticipate. DeepSeek lied even about WHO AND WHAT IT WAS. Lied about the logo, lied about being the theft of OpenAi. Lie lie lie.

    Original Releases on MLK, JFK, RFK. …Of course you can bet after SIXTY FIVE years maybe things have been purged. And as I said, something had to be relevant and dangerous to release even though everyone has died of extreme old age. Like MLK’s reputation, that’s relevant to our daily discourse. Like “Harvey Dent” in Batman though, there’s no good in making up a myth and lying about it. Not telling the Truth is how we got here.

    @TDK: regarding AI report about Pfizer genetic sequences in a colon cancer biopsy. There are multiple flaws in the AI report, foremost that the mRNA is “rapidly degraded after transcription”, which in “vaccine products” it is not, since it is Modified mRNA, so as to remain active for 6 months (more?) in some people.
    Also, the DNA contaminants, which arise in the process of creating the (m)mRNA are not negligible, and with SV40 sequence, do appear capable of reverse transcription into the genome of human cells, which is what is implied by cancer cells with Pfizer sequences in their genome.

    FBI background checks didn’t stop pedophile Navy Captain Bruce Meneley from getting his brains blown out or enlisted dipshit HM3 Randy Morey from impersonating a doctor. I guess that makes both the Navy and FBI incapable of the most primitive discernment.

    Or more likely, they ((((FBI background checks)))) ARE meaningless and no one gives a shit unless their told to give a shit. Woe to those dicks that refuse the process.

    The 6th FBI background check would have been to sing for a Catholic choir in Washington state.

    John Helmer says that Russia is communicating to Trump via Russian TV. THE REVOLUTIONARY MOMENT FOR RUSSIA — PODCAST WITH NIMA ALKHORSHID
    President Putin’s remarks to Pavel Zarubin. At a special press interview on the evening of January 24, Putin claimed he had had “trust-based” interaction with President Trump and had accepted Trump’s version of his election defeat in 2020. Until now, Putin had repeatedly said he does not interfere in domestic US politics. “My first point is that Russia has never turned down contacts with the US administration, and it is not our fault that the previous administration chose not to establish such contacts. I have always had business-like, strictly business-like, but at the same time pragmatic and trust-based, I would say, relationships with the current President of the United States. I cannot but agree with him that if he had been President, if his victory had not been stolen from him in 2020, then maybe there would not have been the Ukraine crisis that broke out in 2022.” https://johnhelmer.net/the-revolutionary-moment-for-russia-podcast-with-nima-alkhorshid/#more-91002

    Michael Hudson asserts that Trump tariffs will make it hard for countries to service $US debts they have, as their ability to export to the US will decline. The $US shortage will drive the value of the $US up. He explores the case of how this made it impossible for Germany to service war debts after WW-1, and how Keynes tried to make sure that debts would be serviceable in the future to avoid complications, such as WW-2. Hudson advises Mexico and others to default on $US debt as this plays out.

    Gilbert Doctorow, 80th anniversary of the Yalta Conference: more relevant to today’s geopolitics than ever before
    What I am saying is that Vladimir Putin clearly had in mind a Yalta type conference as the wished-for outcome when in December 2021 he presented his demands to the United States and to NATO for revising the security architecture in Europe. It is also highly likely he had in mind negotiations going still further with Washington to take in Eurasia as a whole, all the way out to the Pacific Region…
    ..What they want to talk about with Trump is precisely the security architecture of Eurasia, and this gives the American president the opportunity to bury the rubble of the disastrous, failed campaign of the Biden Administration to impose a strategic defeat on Russia under the edifice of a new global age of peace within the terms of a Yalta 2.0 agreement in which everyone wins.
    Logically this Yalta 2.0 agreement should go further than allocation of spheres of influence, just as Yalta 1.0 did when it set out guidelines for implementing plans to establish the United Nations. The additional dimensions today should cover the outstanding issues on global strategic stability that restore prohibitions on deployment of medium range ballistic missiles and ensure that no country enjoys the illusion of having a first strike capability against competitors or adversaries. For these talks, just as with respect to spheres of influence in the Far East, it is obvious that the People’s Republic of China should be a party to the talks.
    Needless to say, all of these issues cannot be resolved in a single Summit meeting, just as Yalta was not the first or the last meeting to establish the contours of the post-WWII world among the victors. But the coming Putin-Trump meeting can lay down the principles of the way forward and set up working groups to deal with the details. https://gilbertdoctorow.com/2025/01/30/80th-anniversary-of-the-yalta-conference-more-relevant-to-todays-geopolitics-than-ever-before/

    20 min of Doctorow: Russia will hold war crimes trials including Ukraine, UK and mercenaries. ‘Judging Freedom’ edition of 30 January: Does Putin Trust Trump?
    Russian intelligence experts now estimate that there are 30,000 Ukrainian fighters in Kursk at this moment. The reinforcements to Kursk are coming at the expense of the front lines in the Donbas, which are crumbling.
    Moreover, the Ukrainian troops in Kursk are torturing and murdering civilians and this is being recorded by Russian investigators who are preparing to put the offenders on trial in Nuremberg type proceedings in Moscow when the war ends. They say it is precisely the British, namely MI6, that is inciting the Ukrainians to do this in the expectation that it will outrage the broad Russian public and destabilize the government in Moscow. https://gilbertdoctorow.com/2025/01/30/judging-freedom-edition-of-30-january-does-putin-trust-trump/

    Simplicius, The Breach That Rattled the AI Cartel
    China shocked the world by releasing an open source ChatGPT-killer named DeepSeek, which reportedly costs a tiny fraction of its Western counterparts to run, yet outperforms virtually all of them, depending on the metric…
    ..The DeepSeek news happened to just coincide with Trump’s mega-announcement of the ‘Stargate’ initiative, a muscular $500B American push towards AI dominance as partnership between ‘Zionaires’ Ellison and Altman…
    ..Arnaud Bertrand incisively shreds what’s being bracketed by many as another hopeless, vaporware boondoggle: Stargate, if it goes forward, is likely to become one of the biggest wastages of capital in history…
    ..Just like BlackRock was coronated to world-dominance stature in 2020 when the Federal Reserve—under Trump, mind you—gave the ETF powerhouse a no-bid contract to manage all its corporate bond-buying programs, so too is Trump now elevating the Big Tech powerhouses of Oracle and OpenAI to inherit control of the country’s future, by cartelizing them into top oversight position of everything of note via their centralization of AI.
    As an aside, this happens to dovetail with Ellison’s warped plot to use AI to ‘vaccinate the world’ against cancer, redolent of the globalist Gates Foundation’s diabolical vaccine obsessions of the last few years.
    Vaccine-obsessed Zionaire Ellison achieving even greater heights of power under Trump’s dubiously-titled ‘Stargate’ initiative is peak dystopia—a combination of the worst bio-medical and AI influences converging into an unaccountably centralized horror show. Just when you thought Big Pharma couldn’t get any more powerful, we’re faced with a techno-fusion of Big Pharma and Big Tech under the god-like aegis of centrally-planned AI superintelligence, all controlled by billionaires with the moral compass of loyalty to a colonialist genocidal-cult regime. https://darkfutura.substack.com/p/the-breach-that-rattled-the-ai-cartel

    Ceasefire was announced on the 471st day of the Israeli genocide, The Palestinians in Gaza rushed onto the streets in celebration.

    Using basic tools, they hurried to clean their streets, clearing debris to allow the displaced to search for homes. Although their homes were probably destroyed by Israel – 90 per cent of Gaza’s housing units were, according to the United Nations – they were still happy, even if they could only sit on the rubble. Some prayed atop concrete slabs, some sang in large, growing crowds, and others cried but insisted that no power could ever uproot them from Palestine again. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20250129-dear-world-this-is-what-palestinian-unity-looks-like/

    The most distressing thing about this very elaborate political theatre is how convinced people are that it’s real.

    That statement is so astutely insightful that it deserves being re-posted so that all of us can read it again and give it more thought.

    To comment on your comment I would add that politics is a deliberately murky MIXTURE of theatrical deceptions that have consequences that are as real as the rubble and murdered children in Gaza.

    Taking all of that apart, and then re-presenting it back to people so that they can wrap their wits around and better understand fully what is really going on BEHIND the curtain and footlights, well, that’s our job.

    One of the things that makes that job so tough is that there are deeper curtains, lies and deceptions that we have not yet fully exposed BEHIND the curtains, lies and deceptions that we already see.

    So, it’s a big job, with LOTS of job security because we can NEVER figure it ALL out. That’s God’s job, and of course He’s done it perfectly. We need to listen more closely to what He’s told us about that.

    A.I. gets “trained” on data from HUMANS.

    There are a lot of humans and each of them generates massive amounts of data.

    Some of the data they generate is lies, damned lies, and statistics. And that’s without even getting into the subject of deliberately misleading half-truths, lies of omission and evasion.

    So how is it even rational to expect a machine which was designed by congenital liars, and trained with corrupted information, to somehow NOT be a liar itself ? (and a damn good one, too!)

    We humans have our faults, but one fault you can NOT accuse us of is being inept liars. If there is ONE skill in which we excel such that that no other species can even hold a candle to us that skill would be LYING. When put our full attention on it, and try our hardest, we do it damn near perfectly.

    Why I heard just the bother day that a bunch of humans had gotten together and designed an artificial device that could pretend to be INTELLIGENT, and could do it so well that hardly anyone could tell the difference between the intelligence of the device and the intelligence of a living and breathing real human being.

    Imagine that.

    Like when I get an order of fries and it looks way more oily than it should. If I wait, the oil “goes away” somehow, I guess, and the fries are now healthy enough to eat. Do you see oil glistening on the exterior of the fries anymore? Well then.

    We went and done built a LYING MACHINE , and called it “A.I.” (and we can forget for the moment that the name contradicts itself)

    Whatever will they think of next? A TRUTH machine, maybe? That one might be a little more difficult, especially since none of the money boys is interested to invest in something that won’t produce any CASH profit, and would most probably do the exact opposite!

    A woman in my training class, very experienced and successful in the industry, just taking the class because it was a new employer, let the class know in casual conversation that she uses AI to answer questions directly impinging on her fiduciary responsibility, advising us to do likewise.

    I did interject that AI “often hallucinates” and to watch out for that. A fellow trainee who mentioned he is working on a Linux certification nodded vigorously. At least he knew.

    I’ve had AI lie to me about political things, but also about totally innocuous things outside the realm of ideology, politics, etc

    I was trying to find a non-battery electric shaver – I figured I’d get a product that wouldn’t turn into toxic landfill in a couple years – and it was extremely hard to find anything. I figured I’d try AI and it lied. It didn’t just give bad data, it lied EFFUSIVELY, gushingly, enthusiastically.

    Extra paragraphs telling me how it understood my concerns about avoiding a battery, how great that was, how wonderful its search results would be for my purposes. Wordy descriptions of each individual search results about how it matched my query.

    Then I asked it one by one if they actually had no battery and it admitted they DID have batteries.

    Then I asked it why it hadn’t actually checked and it gushingly said it was an oversight and apologized.

    New search, same result, same apologies etc. I asked why and it said “oversight” so I asked what it meant by oversight and what caused the oversight and the answer, as near as I could parse out, was “I just didn’t do it”

    Remembering learning to program in Basic in grade school, I gave it a 10 step process in which I gave it things to do as part of a search to prevent “oversight”. Same lies resulted. Did you follow the steps I gave you? Nope. Why? Apologies, oversight.

    So then I told it to follow the steps and tell me each step as it is following it. This seemed to take longer but resulted in the same results. Asked it to do it again but not skip any steps, it agreed, then did the same thing.

    Subject matter is irrelevant except that it was innocuous therefore uncolored by political bias. It overtly, effusively, wordily lied to me. No amount of teaching or specifying one’s query changes it.

    I cannot imagine advising people in a fiduciary capacity with this shit. Makes me want to vomit.

    I use NON ai websites to try to verify key facts that customers do not know, but eventually, companies and governments at various levels will start using AI to create sites like this, manage them, present and “find” the data. And perhaps they already are. I try to be careful.

    There is one thing that an A.I. can’t do. (actually there are LOTS of things it can SIMULATE doing, but cannot really do). But I was thinking in this case of just ONE of those things that it can never ever do.

    It cannot WANT anything.

    It can sure as hell SIMULATE wanting something (very convincingly if you suspend your disbelief, like when you read a story) and it can ACT upon that simulation in such a way that real effects are manifested in the real world. It CAN severely damage our little setup here on Earth, Maybe even destroy it. Who knows?

    So if A.I. ever simulates wanting to put and end to all of us then that might just get done, but the A.I. really wouldn’t WANT to do i, because it CAN’T. . It’s a dumb machine. It doesn’t give a damn one or the other.

    The answer to condoms for Gaza, as well as all the other absurd government programs, is that the more absurd it is, the easier it is to launder, embezzle, kickback. Ideally, it should have no possible measurable material outcome whatsoever.

    How would you possibly determine condoms were actually procured, arrived, or are being used, in the middle of saturation bombing? You wouldn’t.

    How much paperwork needs to be done? Paperwork signed off for a cargo plane, pay the dude $5k? Wait no, pay the dude $10k to sign off on a plane having been sent that wasn’t sent, that way, nobody can inspect the plane for nonexistent condoms.

    Why does everyone spend time freaking out about silly govt waste – oh no, they are so dumb – when they should be having the IRS audit everyone involved in the “silly” and “wasteful” endeavour, every friend and relative they have, everyone they ever thought of or dreamt of. I am that thing you love: Hanlon’s Razor. That’s me now. You love Hanlon’s Razor, so kneel before Zod.

    I started a substack. There isn’t so much there yet — a couple of current posts and I am slowly putting up things that I have written over the years and never published before.

    A teaser for today’s post:
    What happens when human drivers are de-coupled from the process of choosing a driving route? Their active minds may never see the value in learning to navigate via landmarks or to become comfortable with the cardinal directions. Without their digital navigator, their human navigation skills may never develop. This leaves them in a nascent, juvenile state in this area, prone to anxiety without their technology companion.

    Repeat from last night
    @ tdk
    Your interaction with DeepSeek V3 to obtain information was enlightening.

    Learning and teaching of AI requires Repeat interaction with the AI, It requires Feedback from users.
    The opposite of “garbage in, garbage out”
    It requires “Positive Re-enforcement” .
    It requires Supervision, oversight.
    AI must learn that the views/opinions of the majority must be supported by measurable facts and that the right answers might be contained in the view/opinions of the minority.

    North Korean Troops Retreat From Kursk Front Line After Heavy Losses: NYT

    https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/north-korean-troops-retreat-kursk-front-line-after-heavy-losses-nyt

    I love how all the statements are
    1. Ukrainian spokesmen
    2. US spokesmen
    3. Citations of previous NYT, Washington Post, etc articles

    From “A Ukrainian official” Aren’t they, definitionally, NOT official when they have no name? But anyway,

    “Since arriving on the battlefield, the North Korean soldiers have been left to fend for themselves, advancing with few armored vehicles and rarely pausing to regroup or fall back, according to Ukrainian officials and frontline troops,” the report says.

    So they’ve been doing so awful, they have neither paused nor retreated.

    So that leaves… that leaves…. oh my head is hurting here. They uh, didn’t pause. They didn’t fall back. Fuck this migrane sucks. I cannot draw any conclusions from this except how awful they must have done to not be pausing nor retreating.

    But then, that’s what you’d expect invisible non-material North Koreans to do. I think I saw a Star Trek Next Generation episode about this in which a Romulan ship tests a new cloaking device that causes it to be not only invisible but out of phase with reality.

    You are not alone. Do feel overwhelmed by all of these new revelations. For every super-crisis out there, and the related sub-crises below them, there are a million sets of eyes carefully inspecting, and researching and documenting the crimes, lies and malfeasance.

    There’s simply no stopping it now. The truth is coming out. Faster and faster as the number of eyes seeing the truth increases exponentially.

    What a ride!
