Reviewing a string of fascist failures; the $1.8B slush fund, Congress not supporting the Iran war, the Senate not passing the Save Act, a Judge undoing the naricisstic rebrand of the Kennedy Center, artists bailing on the White House's Fyre Fest, and a new lawsuit brought by 35 former Federal Judges. Also, reading up on dueling 250th celebrations for America (one congressionally approved, one rogue), learning why Albanians are protesting the aquisition and development of a protected island, and seeing how our tax dollars are paying for petty websites targeting Americans. Then, a look at the hunger strike, protests, and ongoing allegations of inhumane treatment at Delaney Hall, a for-profit Detention Center in New Jersey.

House Bill 5024---awaiting to be signed by Governor Pritzker---restricts the location of newly created federal immigration detention centers in Illinois. Broadview Mayor Katrina Thompson says the bill will mean {quote}: "no Illinois community will be forced to absorb a detention facility in the shadow of its schools, its churches, or its homes". In January, Broadview adopted its own municipal ordinance restricting the location of new detention facilities within its borders.

We have been given a great incentive to come together as a community. We see plainly that the only way to a rational and stable existence is through ourselves, and not by a system of elected officials hijacked by nefarious players. This is not a time to usher in a more uncertain change simply for change's sake. This should be more of a restoration. A restoration of what we were under the impression we had, of sanity, of common law (cause no harm), and true leadership that cares about the well-being of the People.WE Will Turn This Around. We are either staring at eminent death in the coming months, or a revival of the spiritual power of true mankind. I say True mankind, because I suspect we have been living among imposters, SIMS, a great many Hylics.

     If this isn't a total hoax and MindWar-level LIE about the brain cells learning to play Doom, then the possibilities have probably already far surpassed what they are disclosing at present. The missing piece of the puzzle, the realism that comes from human understanding and cognition could be our own brains plugged into the simulation. We would be manufacturing our own most powerful illusion based on our own standards of what reality looks and feels like. The metaverse wouldn't need to attempt to guess. We would be supplying the data ourselves via anticipation. It would simply use our signals against us to make a flawless reality built for One. Each individual would experience their own reality and a shared experience. It would reinforce the realism. It would be the inescapable dream. Even if you mastered your own mind and conquered the illusion, you would still be inside the dream. There's nowhere to go. The mind is cyclical. It turns you right back to the center. Being aware of the false reality is hardly an escape hatch to break free because it's not a physical reality at all. You would only ever be able to accomplish Lucid Dreaming and it would be fleeting.619-431-0334https://vdo.ninja/?room=4roomMy site:https://SemperFryLLC.comJoin Dr. Glidden's Membership site here:https://leavebigpharmabehind.com/?via=pgndhealth⁠Code: baalbusters for 25% OFFUse Code BB5 here for your 90 Essential Nutrients:https://www.azurestandard.com/shop/brand/azurewell/2326The Azure Whole Food Essential Nutrients are 1.

In 2026, they extended this to the game Doom. This "mini-brain" sits on a silicon chip (CL1) that translates game data into electrical signals, allowing the cells to act and interact in real-time."How does one even prove that's not a hoax or fraud? The chip is determining what signals from a lump of lab grown Frankenbrain tissue is signalliing? It doesn't have eyes. It's not receiving any discernable stimuli to react to, and even if it was there's a LOT of liberties being taken by said circuit to translate those reactions into gameplay. Personally I think it's a parlor trick. But I do not think it's insignificant. They're releasing this information to the public for some reason. Could it be they are signalling to our brains rather than the lump of Frankenbrain clusters to convey a much darker purpose for mankind moving forward? Could it be a foreshadowing of our future relationship with computing and Artificial Intelligence? Are we the missing component in making AI more rational, and give it the human quality necessary for convincing illusions in their Metaverse? Will we be used to deceive ourselves? Are we the final ingredient for the AI Data Centers? Is this going to be an involuntary mental and physical enslavement in these massive facilities? Will they be using our whole body, or just hacking us up and taking our skulls and brains?

The director of the New Hampshire Division for Children, Youth and Families is disputing many recent allegations at the state's youth detention center. Marie Noonan testified before lawmakers this week after concerns of abuse or improper restraint were detailed in reports by the Disability Rights Center and the Office of the Child Advocate. Noonan sent a letter to the Disability Rights Center late last week arguing that the Center's investigation and visits to the facility are having a negative impact on the kids and staff there. And New Hampshire is full of historic homes, barns and churches that are at risk of falling apart. But there's a shortage of people who know how to repair them. On this week's edition of the New Hampshire News Recap, we discuss an effort to preserve the state's landmarks by building up the workforce with reporters Jeremy Margolis from the Concord Monitor and NHPR's Jackie Harris.

Immigrant detention facilities are being bought and retrofitted seemingly overnight without public input across the U.S., and there's little to no notice given to local governments. How can this happen? It's all traced back to a war-focused contracting method Immigration and Customs Enforcement has been using to its advantage. But first, the New York Times reports that the president is considering setting up a safety-vetting process for AI models.

Another man, Alejandro Cabrera Clemente has died in ICE custody. There have been 15 recorded deaths of Mexican citizens in ICE detention centers since Trump took office. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum urges diplomats to ramp up scrutiny of facilities and announces plans to further help detained people. KCSB's Abbey Guerrero has the story.

Towns across the U.S. are now grappling with what it means to have ICE detention centers in their backyard — even communities that overwhelmingly voted for President Donald Trump and support his deportation efforts.Last week, hundreds of protestors showed up outside a Maryland courtroom while a federal judge temporarily blocked the construction of a detention center in the state. That pause will remain in place as a lawsuit from the the state's attorney general plays out. And last month, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro blocked ICE's access to water and sewage systems in two different counties where warehouses were bought. Local leaders argue these warehouses would overwhelm city resources.So, what are conditions like in these facilities? And what does the future hold for this new wave of detention centers?Find more of our programs online.

First, we'll tell you some of the contributing factors around why 2025 was the deadliest year ever recorded for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Detention Centers. Then, we'll tell you why more and more flights coming from San Diego's military airports are deportation flights. And, we'll tell you about a new legislature that looks to build more affordable housing in our cities' urban centers. Also, uncomfortable conversations around death are moving to more social settings like a bar. And, International Dark Sky Week is here! We'll tell you about some of the stargazing events happening across San Diego County this week.

The case centers on a July 4th, 2025 attack on the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas, where a group of individuals armed with AR-15s and handguns opened fire on law enforcement, shooting a police officer in the neck. Two of the defendants actually fired weapons. The other six were convicted largely for wearing black, throwing fireworks, and holding anti-fascist beliefs. Hawk, a former criminal defense attorney, walks through the federal indictments, the conspiracy charges, and how Donald Trump's National Security Presidential Memo Number 7 and a December 2025 directive from then-Attorney General Pam Bondi turned what were essentially vandalism and protest charges into domestic terrorism prosecutions carrying 55-year federal sentences. The legal framework being used targets anti-capitalism, anti-Christianity, anti-Americanism, support for trans rights, and protesting ICE as ideological indicators of domestic terrorism. Hawk examines how conspiracy law allows the acts of one person to be applied to an entire group, how "providing material support to terrorists" became the anchor charge against people who never touched a gun, and why Antifa, which has no formal organizational structure, membership rolls, or leadership, is being treated as a designated terrorist organization. The Pam Bondi memo, Kash Patel's hollowing out of the FBI, and the gutting of the DOJ are all part of the picture Hawk lays out in one of his most detailed and legally grounded episodes yet.
