BREAKING: We exposed how George Soros converts tax-deductible donations into political campaigns through a $34 million pipeline where Tides and Working Families Party coordinate to support candidates like Zohran Mamdani Our investigation uncovered a $2+ billion tax-exempt network that systematically converted charitable donations into political power. The numbers tell the story. FULL INVESTIGATION: [link]: ➡️whitecollarfraud.com/2025/08… THE BASIC SCHEME: George Soros donates to his Foundation to Promote Open Society (501c3) - tax deductible → $8.4M flows to Tides Foundation (501c3) → $29.3M flows to Tides Advocacy (501c4) for "political advocacy" → Coordinates with Working Families Organization supporting candidates like Mamdani THE SMOKING GUN - REVERSE FLOWS: After receiving $9.71M from the Soros pipeline, Working Families Organization sent $325,000 BACK to Tides entities. Independent charities don't do this. It's mathematical proof of coordination. SYSTEMATIC CONCEALMENT: Tides Advocacy (501c4) lists Janiece Evans-Page as Director, while she simultaneously serves as CEO of both Tides Foundation (501c3) and Tides Center (501c3), yet Tides Advocacy filed NO disclosure forms for 5+ years while receiving $29.3M. THE EIN SCANDALS: ➡️Working Families Organization reported $80,000 to "WFP National PAC" but used an EIN that actually belongs to "International Earthlight Alliance." ➡️Tides Center reported a $343,753 contribution to "Tides Advocacy" using an EIN that belongs to "Think Outside Da Block Inc. PROFESSIONAL AUDITOR CONFIRMATION: Deloitte auditors confirmed operational integration between Tides Foundation and Tides Center, requiring consolidated financial statements. Yet Tides Advocacy - sharing the same leadership - systematically concealed these relationships. 6/ THE SCALE: ➡️$34.4M in documented flows between supposedly independent entities ➡️$16.1M in government grants flowing to organizations with political arms ➡️$36.5M in admitted "political transfers" by Open Society Institute ➡️Over $2B in total network operations OUR EVIDENCE: Every dollar amount traced to original IRS Form 990 filings. We've filed a Fifth Supplemental IRS whistleblower complaint documenting potential $500M+ in tax recovery from this coordination system. THE MAMDANI CONNECTION: This network manufactured his "grassroots" campaign while maintaining the illusion of independent charitable work. The infrastructure that created his political rise operates continuously, creating candidates nationwide. WHY IT MATTERS: If charitable tax deductions can be systematically converted into political coordination through concealed control structures, it undermines the entire tax-exempt system. Donors get tax breaks, candidates get "grassroots" cover, taxpayers subsidize political operations. The mathematics don't lie. When organizations engage in $34M+ flows while concealing key relationships and sending money backward through the system, these patterns warrant investigation.

I respect immigrants who work hard to bring their families here and build brighter futures for their children. If the tables were turned, I would be one of them, with my daughter on my back and my son in a wagon, no matter the effort. There are both good and bad people in every micro-population — at the park, in the airport, at every major sports arena, with or without passports or green cards. Allowing the fear of statistically infrequent bad actors to broadly reduce life-changing opportunities does not seem American to me. I have written appeals and have physically plead in a federal Texas court to keep my own father in this country following state incarceration without due-process - gratefully returning the favor of my existence and life here, just once. How many beautiful, colorful lives are in-play as a result of delicate, near-miss immigration that almost never happened? I sincerely hope for less bias and generalization toward these families, but also for more intelligent processes to support their ambitions without political motivation. Yet, overly open borders almost feel like administrative vengeance, at the cost of social disparity for those who do make it here. I think we can do better. I think immigration can be beautiful again. Just a thought.

In the 1990’s, NBA champion Horace Grant wore goggles because he was legally blind. However, after getting corrective eye surgery, he continued to wear them for another, heroic reason. Horace said: “After a few years I got Lasik surgery, but I kept wearing them without the perscription [sic] lenses because I had grandparents and parents come up to me and thank me for wearing them. Their kids and grandkids would get made fun of by wearing protective eyewear playing sports, so I kept wearing them to help make it cool to wear goggles for the kids.”

Each second, 1.5 million tons of solar material, traveling at 100 miles per second, shoot off the sun. Earth's magnetic field deflects most of it, but not all. The solar wind, a stream of charged particles, flows at 447 km/s (1 million mph), and while the magnetic field protects us, some particles still cause auroras and geomagnetic storms.

In 1976, Lal Bihari was a farmer living in Northern India when he "died" at the age of 21. Bihari found out about his death when he applied for a loan and was denied, discovering that he was listed as deceased in official government files. He lost everything, his land, his money, and almost all his possessions. In the eyes of the law, he was dead, and as a result was a nobody. Lal Bihari was one of many victims of this kind of fraud in India. Typically, a fraudster will bribe a government worker to have a death certificate drawn up against a victim, then perhaps bribe another government worker to have that person's land, possessions, and assets deeded to the crook. As it turns out, Lal Bihari was cheated by his own uncle, who was able to take everything Lal owned for a mere $100. While this may seem like a bizarre situation, in India it is not uncommon. There are tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of walking dead in India, all of whom, like Bihari, lost everything to fraud, and found themselves in a legal grey area where they have no rights, no property, and no possessions. Due to their circumstances, it is almost impossible to obtain credit, a drivers license, a passport, access to government services, proof of ownership over anything, and employment. Such people have no rights, as technically they don't exist. Unfortunately, reversal of death in India is not easy with India's slow government. Such a process could take years, perhaps decades. Lal Bihari found that out the hard way he tried to reverse his death, only to be denied by government officials and ruled against by judges.  With no evidence proving he was alive, and all official documentation proving he was dead, he was almost helpless against the system. After failing to get results the legal way, Bihari decided to raise hell and make his voice heard that he was indeed alive. He arranged his own funeral, applied for a widow's pension for his wife, kidnapped the son of the uncle who stole his land, threatened murder, threw leaflets at lawmakers, publicly insulted judges, and even tried running for Prime Minister. He went so far as to add the word "Mritak"-- meaning "dead"-- to the end of his name.  After 18 years of death, his voice was finally heard, and he was declared by the Indian government to be alive once again. Ever since his resurrection, Lal Bihari has been busy campaigning for those who share his circumstances.  He has since founded the Uttar Pradesh Association of Dead People, a political group which advocates for the restoration of legal rights and property rights for the living dead in India. At last count, the organization had 20,000 members and was responsible for bringing 30 people back from the dead.

While everyone is being distracted by @NikkiHaley being an absolute lunatic and trying to dox every person on the internet, the FCC is having a vote tomorrow on Biden's "Equity plan for internet" that would give them effective control of all internet services and infrastructure in the country, which would allow them to enact insane policies such as this and other totalitarian controls that will certainly lead to more draconian censorship. The text of the order expressly provides that the FCC would be empowered, for the first time, to regulate each and every ISP’s: ● “network infrastructure deployment, network reliability, network upgrades, network maintenance, customer-premises equipment, and installation”; ● “speeds, capacities, latency, data caps, throttling, pricing, promotional rates, imposition of late fees, opportunity for equipment rental, installation time, contract renewal terms, service termination terms, and use of customer credit and account history”; ● “mandatory arbitration clauses, pricing, deposits, discounts, customer service, language options, credit checks, marketing or advertising, contract renewal, upgrades, account termination, transfers to another covered entity, and service suspension.” "But it gets worse. The FCC reserves the right under this plan to regulate both “actions and omissions, whether recurring or a single instance.” In other words, if you take any action, you may be liable, and if you do nothing, you may be liable. There is no path to complying with this standardless regime. It reads like a planning document drawn up in the faculty lounge of a university’s Soviet Studies Department."

My dad picked me up from the South Dakota State Chess Championship when I was 13. I tossed my trophy in the back and crawled into the passenger seat. He asked: “How’d you do?” Me: “I won.” The words he said next have followed me for the past 26 years. He said: “Good… you were supposed to.” I struggled beneath the weight of those words for many years. Struggled beneath the expectation that excellence was the standard, not the exception. I thought it meant I had to be the best at everything I did. And so that became the metric against which I measured my worth. Which in itself became a sort of unwinnable game… Unwinnable because If you’re expected to win…then what real pride can you take in the victory? Then again, if you lose… well… What the hell? Tony Robbins said: “Success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure.” I lived that truth for years… I tried desperately to use my achievements over others to fill that hole I felt inside of me. That feeling of never being enough. It took many years, many conversations with my Dad, and a whole lot of introspection to realize I’d made a mistake… I’d misinterpreted my Dad’s question… See, when he asked: “How did you do?” He wasn’t asking about the result… he could see the trophy in the backseat, afterall. He was asking about me and my performance. My input, not the output. Did I play as well as I could… or did I just get by. I think a lot about this quote from Star Trek: “You can do everything right and still lose. That’s not weakness, that’s life.” The reverse is also true. You can do everything wrong and still win. That’s not strength, that’s luck. And the truth is, I got lucky that year at State. I didn’t play up to my ability. In the championship round I blundered badly and should’ve lost. That’s just life… But here’s the lesson I’ve taken away from all this: (and truly, it’s changed my life) You don’t get to choose what happens to you in this life… But you DO get to choose what those things mean. For me, here’s how I’ve chosen to interpret that conversation with my dad all those years ago: It’s not about being the best, it’s about doing your best. And I think in the grand scheme of things… If you can show up everyday and… Just do your best… Everything’s gonna work out just fine.

The subway performer took out his $3.5 million violin and started to play... But no one stopped to listen. In 2007, Joshua Bell, one of the world's greatest musicians, engaged in a small social experiment: Just days after performing in front of a sold out audience at Boston's Symphony Hall, he put on a hat and walked into a Washington D.C. metro station during the morning commute. He stood just inside the entrance, held his instrument, a Stradivarius violin from 1713 estimated to be worth up to $3.5 million, and began to play. Of the 1,000+ commuters that passed the musician that morning, only a small handful stopped to listen to the beautiful music. He made around $50 in tips during the 40 minute performance of six legendary pieces. The story became an immediate viral sensation, with most pointing to it as a lamentation of our inability to stop and smell the roses (or listen to the music, as it were). But with everyone in a rush to go about their business, I think there's more to it than that... In my mind, there are a few lessons from the fascinating tale: 1. Presentation Matters The quality of something can easily be undermined by its outward appearance. A beautiful idea may not impact its readers if it is clouded by complex language. A gourmet meal may not taste as delicious if slapped into a plastic container. An impressive technology may not connect with its users if it sits behind an ugly UI/UX. 2. Context Matters The same performance in a different context might have an entirely different perceived value. We all need to find the context in which our value is fully appreciated and understood. 3. We Need to Slow Down In his 1998 Rice commencement speech, Kurt Vonnegut spoke this timeless wisdom: "When things are going sweetly and peacefully, please pause a moment, and then say out loud: 'If this isn't nice, what is?'" Life flies by. Remember to stop and appreciate the moments of sweetness. Force yourself to slow down now and then. 4. Always Tip Liberally When you watch or listen to a street performer, tip them liberally. The talent out in the world is abundant, and the fact that they are performing in these settings takes real guts and determination. It's a small gesture that makes the world a bit more beautiful. So, what do you think about this story: Would you have stopped to listen, or continued on your rushed commute? Would you have recognized the beauty in the performance? I'd like to think I would have stopped and listened, but sadly, I'm guessing I would have followed the crowd and rushed by. Something to think about... *** If you enjoyed this or learned something, share this post with others and follow me @SahilBloom for more in future!

Replying to @ianmiles @elonmusk
I propose that just below the surface of other planets or moons life may exist as there may be a temperate zone just under the surface with liquid water regardless of surface conditions, as there is under the entire surface of Earth. The universe is incomprehensibly vast, and consciousness just an anomaly amongst infinity: After all we are just ghosts piloting solar powered meat-coated skeletons made of space explosion residue, living on an extremely fast moving ball of salty mud with a force field that protects it from bursts of fire launched at it by a colossal nuclear explosion that said salty mudball orbits. The only thing we need to fear is other possessed electro-meat-skeletons and maybe the salty mudball freezing or evaporating.

Sooo... #tesla $tsla was removed from the S&P 500 ESG list while at the same time they added 5 oil and gas companies and rank Exxon as a top ESG company. It is all BS, just a big game. And the bankers are laughing the whole way to the bank.
