Back in the 90s when we were part of the kickoff of consumer use of the web, we worried about this. There was no way around it but there was discussion at that time that all internet use would be connected to a consumer's account. It raised far too many civil liberty issues, but regret we didn't all work more on some version of that. Have advocated Twitter having two parts, a gated area that was only with named registered users, and the sewer. It would cut so much out of the mix.
Ah. You mean a real-names-real-identities-only system. I advocated for that as well, but there were some privacy security issues that just could not be resolved, and still can't.

Original post here was an Ambien rant, but my point holds. The drug lord stacks, well that's another problem. That's too much cash to be usable. If someone without a banking history of large cash transactions just found $1 million cash in the woods, it wouldn't be much use to them. Free groceries for life? Its not like it can be out into a bank or used to buy anything legal for more than $10k.
I may be wrong but I think you can still buy a house in FL for cash. It's a great way to launder money, buy a condo for 10% over cost, sit on it for a few years, sell and get it all back. It takes longer but its a better return than the usual 20% loss when going through the usual laundrymats.

What an asshole, his poor child.
“I’m risking everything I have,” said Jake Klassen, 39, who has been a truck driver for nearly two decades and drives three weeks of the month hauling loads to the U.S. as an owner-operator. “I want to be able to have my own choice.”

Klassen has two campers and his black semi trailer at the Emerson blockade. They could potentially be seized; Klassen described Trudeau’s move to invoke emergency powers as a “scare tactic” so “they can take everything from us,” he said.

Klassen said he hasn’t been able to visit his nine-year-old daughter in months. She is receiving palliative care at St. Amant, a care residence in Winnipeg, but due to restrictions that require visitors to be fully vaccinated, Klassen and his wife can’t see her.

“This is something worth fighting for,” he said.

"Hacker"? Really? They left their AWS S3 buckets open to the public like a bunch of dummies. Repeatedly. Hardly a hack.

I find it hilarious that FOX talking heads don't mind foreign influence, provided they are the foreigners doing the influencing.

In the real estate biz, "cash" generally refers to "money in a bank account," not literal cash. The escrow agent will be expecting a wire transfer from one banking institution to another. Showing up with a certified check (again from a banking institution) will cause grumblings. Showing up with a pickup truck full of greenbacks will set off the red flags (and anti-laundering provisions).

Of course, an escrow agent is optional and used to protect the interests of both parties. Something launderers usually aren't concerned with.

Any cash transaction in the United States over $10,000 must be reported. A lot of businesses may not know how to do that or know they have to do that, but eventually it has to be deposited into a bank that sure as hell does know how to do it and is gonna have questions.


Now, you could break it up into a series of smaller, less than $10,000 transactions and make a real serious felony out of it, its called structuring and as crimes go it is kind of elegant in that by even bothering to do it, you are admitting you know its illegal.

Oh yeah. Getting arrested for blocking traffic with your truck is just like being a Jew. Totally. And Black too. You are so being discriminated against. Absolute shame. Travesty of Justice.

Exactly on the real identity, Bill.

Just learned how to find these Twitter Spaces on a desktop. You type "filter:spaces" in the search box at the top. You can put keywords after that like "freedom". Then pick the "latest" tab for the most recent Spaces. For "filter:spaces freedom", today's crazy frucker chat with truegritgram, bob "fact checker" & the other dead-enders is live. Another bouquet of crazy.

Here's the Space of Losers:

Wow this is super nice. Care is awesome, she's been part of #RamRanchResistance and has been really kind posting links and content about the fruckers. We started following each other yesterday. DMed her about finding the Spaces and we talked a bit. Mentioned Fogbow and that we've been talking about it. She asked if it was OK to post my DM and said sure. So she's posted this. Didn't expect it at all. She has a lot of cool followers, we've laughed a lot and they are doing an amazing job calling out and debunking these losers. As she said, "the more the merrier"! :thumbsup:

So for anybody here from Care's tweet, Welcome! Feel free to join us debunking and mocking these dead-enders! There are usually cookies and cake :P :bighug:

Leaked data reportedly reveals a Texas construction CEO who once loaned Trump his private jet is a top donor to the 'Freedom Convoy' trucker protest
Grace Kay
Wed, February 16, 2022, 8:12 PM·
  • A data leak revealed over 92,000 donors who shelled out more than $8 million to the Freedom Convoy.

    Texas CEO Benjamin Pogue's email was linked to a $20,000 donation to the protest, Gizmodo reported.

    A spokesperson said Pogue "has no comment on this issue."
Benjamin Pogue, the CEO of a Texas construction company and a supporter of Donald Trump, has been linked to a $20,000 donation to the ongoing vaccine mandate protests in Canada, according to multiple reports.

On Sunday night, hackers leaked the names of over 92,000 donors who had given millions of dollars to the protesters known as the "Freedom Convoy" via GiveSendGo. Pogue is named among some of the top donors on the Christian crowd-sourcing site and his email is linked to the donation, Gizmodo and The Dallas Morning News reported.

A spokesperson for Pogue told Insider that the CEO "has no comment on this issue."

In 2020, Pogue donated over $385,000 to Trump's reelection efforts, including providing the former president with the use of Pogue's own private jet.

The vaccine mandate protest has been linked to Trump supporters in multiple instances. Several news outlets have posted photos of the protest that include hats and signs referencing Trump and the slogan "Make Canada Great Again." Local news reported that during the first week of the protests a man was seen riding through the protesters on horseback, carrying a "Trump 2024" flag.

Trump and several political figures, including Ben Shapiro and Rep. Majorie Taylor Green (R-GA), have expressed support for the movement. The former president said the protesters were "doing more to defend American freedom than our own leaders by far," during a rally in Conroe, Texas on January 30.

Vice reported that over half of the donations on the donation site originated from the US, according to the leaked data, which has since been removed online.

National Post: My Pillow's Mike Lindell barred from entering Canada to support convoy protestors:
Lindell, as well as a truck full of 10,000 pillows destined for protesters, were denied entry into Canada Tuesday evening

My Pillow CEO and staunch Donald Trump supporter Mike Lindell, as well as a truck full of “10,000 pillows,” were denied entry into Canada Tuesday evening while trying to join Ottawa Freedom Convoy protesters, National Post has learned.

* * *

According to the senior government source, Lindell was turned back because he was not fully vaccinated and did not have a negative PCR test in hand.

The source said that truck was also denied entry into Canada because the U.S. trucker did not have a valid pre-arrival PCR test.

I think it would be the Governor General (Liz's representative) who invoked the dissolution. I think that happened in Australia a few decades ago and there was a big fuss. I'm too lazy to look it up, but maybe some drongo from Straya will remember the circs.
