  1. ... of power."

    #Wheeler explicitly states:

    "The #Broligarchs who've been a key part of #Trump's power are one way to do that (**and that's before we've really gotten into #SteveBannon and #PeterThiel's ties to #Epstein**)."

    She does not elaborate with primary evidence in that piece, but 👉she clearly signals that Thiel's Epstein relationship is documented and waiting to be weaponized strategically—suggesting she has access to evidence but is timing its deployment.👈

  2. The Supreme Court's decisions, such as their Citizen's United ruling, have exacerbated the influence of money in politics. The #NetworkState movement reflects a desire to weaken government and labor. The ideological fervor of tech billionaires can be likened to a religious belief. Surrounded by sychophants, billionaires often have a warped perception of reality and lack of empathy for other people. Cryptocurrency is seen as a tool to undermine the legitimate nation-state's power. Small acts of rebellion can effectively challenge corrupt leaders and powerful institutions.

  3. Incredible screenshot from a private Signal group chat between among #broligarchs revealing that the smarter ones are not happy with #Trump's #tariffs but the crypto bros like the Winklevoss twins, David Sacks, and Shaun Maguire, in addition to the charlatans like Tucker Carlson, are all in for #MAGA.

  4. A joke about #ElonMusk told by #Canadian comic Seth Rogan at the ‘Breakthrough Prize’ ceremony on #YouTube (?) was ‘cut’ because it made fun of #broligarchs , such as #SergeiBrin and #MarkZuckerberg who are the event and prize sponsors.

    Here’s the punch 🤜 line: “It’s amazing how much good #science you can destroy with $320 million and #RFK Jr., very fast.” huffpost.com/entry/seth-rogen-

  5. New paper from #Yale and the #FederalReserve blames the 2023 banking crisis on (you guessed it) #crypto and Nerd Reich #VCs.

    > "A clearer commonality between the six banks [that failed], the paper argues, is their exposure to risky depositor bases that other banks shied away from: #crypto firms and [tech] venture capitalists."

  6. #Broligarchs and other #billionaires bought the #UnitedStates Presidency for #DonaldTheDeplorable in order to ensure that their #ROI returns to the high they enjoyed during #COVID #pandemic.

    The #infrastructure and #BuildBackBetter priorities of #JoeBiden left them absolutely famished!

    After the DOGE heist and #TrumpTax #tariffs (paid by consumers) juice their ROI *this year*, they’ll need an even *bigger fix* next year!

    Colonizing #Greenland , #Canada , #Ukraine would do it, for a few years.
