  1. KPMG whistleblower who tried to expose alleged ‘systemic misconduct’ shows why so few people report

    It takes a certain kind of inner strength to be a whistleblower. Courage and determination are obvious traits…

  2. Cognitive Dissidence
    =================

    Obama sold us #Obamacare and #healthcare went from complicated & expensive, to complicated, expensive, & mandatory.

    Government subsidies ended.
    Net result: healthcare is worse than before.

    There were some benefits to Obamacare, or it would not have passed at all. Some people benefited, though for most others it made #healthcare worse.

    People: "We want #UniversalHealthCoverage ! healthcare is too expensive."

    Obama: "I will ensure that everyone has healthcare."

    People: "Hooray! Obama cares."

    Obama: "Now everyone is REQUIRED to have health insurance."

    People: "And the government will pay for it, right?"

    Obama: "..."

    People: "... right?"

    Obama: "No, but your preexisting conditions will be covered."

    People: "Yay!!!"

    Obamacare subsidies were set to expire, in his plan. Obama handed his opponents a ticking time bomb before leaving office.

    Trump just didn't renew this crock of a plan, because he is too busy doing other evil shit.

    Trump is a daylight robber.
    Obama was a midnight thief.
    Poor people got clobbered,
    electing either, as chief.

    Mandatory health insurance means more money for the "healthcare industry".

    Remember the 2008 market crash that wiped out millions of Americans out of their retirement savings and 401-K? There was corruption behind the scenes, and big insiders made money. It was Obama who stopped that investigation, and it was sneakily moved out of the news cycle.

    He fooled the masses with charm and attraction.
    Propaganda is a weapon of mass distraction.

    Watch what he do.
    Ignore what he say.
    Connect the dots
    and follow de monay!

    I used to laugh at the people who said, "Both sides are the same."

    In 2023, I was a programmer with federal clearance, working for the US Department of Veterans Affairs, through #AccentureFederalServices , through a contractor ( #GrayDigital ), when I called out corruption & became a government #whistleblower

    I have been #homeless since 2023, hounded by the law, a dozen rides in the back of cop cars, usually handcuffed. Kicked out of hospitals, banks, libraries, stores, & buses. 5 arrests ( 4 under #Biden, 1 under #Trump ), faced #police brutality, spent 6 nights in jail. The last arrest was extrajudicial, and I was not even brought before a judge after spending a night in jail, just told to go away.

    I slept outdoors in winters without warm clothes, in muddy orchards, in rain, on cold concrete city pavements, in sweltering heat. I was denied public defense in #courts, though I told judges I was homeless and food insecure. I fought in court, representing myself, while homeless. All charges were dropped. It was whistleblower intimidation. I had committed no crimes. I was assaulted in the streets by the security guard of a #Catholic charity. I have eaten out of garbage cans, & several times, gone hungry for 2-3 days at a time.

    In December 2025, I moved to #Tokyo to avoid persecution, though it followed me here. I'm homeless and hungry here as well, probably because the #Japanese government is reluctant to grant me #political #asylum.

    Every #Refugee Assistance Organization I contacted in Tokyo has turned me away.

  3. I am an #incel , because I am also an #inhom ( involuntarily #homeless ), and #demisexual and #sapiosexual and #pansexual

    and a #whistleblower

    But #sex is out of reach, for people struggling to find food, #medical care, shelter, and get basic #humanrights

  4. I am a federally cleared programmer, turned #whistleblower

    I spoke against the #VA and #AccentureFederalServices and pointed out corruption and mismanagement of funds. I fight for the rights of #veterans

    I have been persecuted, and homeless since 2023.

    I am presently in #Japan , seeking political asylum.

    My whistleblower story is here:

    whistleblower.lovestoblog.com/

    I thought that I would be safe from persecution, once I got to Japan. This turned out to be wrong.

    I ran out of the funds I came here with, in February 2026, and have been #homeless here since.

    I turned to every refugee assistance I could find: #JAR, #AAR, #RHQ, #FRESC, #UNHCR , the #Shinagawa City Ward Office. They all denied me assistance.

    Second Harvest gave me 5 food packages, over two months, each of which lasts 2-3 days.

    The #Takanawa #Catholic #Church was feeding me 1 meal a day, though now they have stopped even that.

    When I reported to Mr. Takaii, a priest at #Meguro Catholic Church, that I had been abused by a Catholic Charity in #Kona , #Hawaii ( documented in the link above ), he suddenly told me he did not speak any English, though we had met a few times, and had several conversations, and he speaks English fluently.

    This is probably because I asked him to respond to my critique of #Christianity in general:

    rant.li/ashwin/why-i-am-also-n

    The #corruption at the heart of the Catholic church and Christianity could not be more profound.

    The #Pope has condemned #war and called for #peace , and scored cheap #poltical points against #Trump , though he has not called on all #Catholics to resign from the military, and stop participating in war. His apologia are crocodile tears.

    I am presently hungry, homeless, and need of medical care.

    The Japanese #Immigration Bureau keep asking me why I have "overstayed my visa". I keep responding that while my asylum application is pending, I am not overstaying in Japan. Japan is in violation of #International #Law ( 1951 & 1967 convention on the treatment of #refugees ). They can easily extend my visa, so I can get medical care and food. I have reported to them several times that I am in pain, and need food. They keep on harassing me.

    It seems to me that the #JapanPM has decided to make same mistake that Japan made in #WW2 - siding with #corruption

    Please boost this message.

    Also please advise where I may turn for immediate help.

    Maximum anonymity for #Activists, #Journalists, #Dissidents, and #Whistleblowers.

    #SESSION (Loki Network/Decentralized)
    Who uses it: Activists in Hong Kong, Belarus, Iran, and protest groups in the West. Why: If an activist is stopped, the police check the phone. In Session, there is no phone number, no address book, no logs of who spoke to whom. It is the best choice if the risk is having your device seized and trying to trace your network of contacts.

    #SIMPLEX Who uses it: Whistleblowers, informants, crypto-anarchists. Why: It is the only app where a "user profile" truly doesn't exist on the server. If the server is seized, there is nothing to find. It is used when contact secrecy is vital more than ease of use.

  15. CW: Nur noch 7 Tage online in der Arte-Mediathek: Steven Spielbergs vielleicht bester Film – auch als OmU: Die Verlegerin (The Post)

    Washington, 1971: Die Verlegerin Katharine und ihr Chefredakteur Ben stehen vor einer historischen Entscheidung. Als der "Washington Post" geheime Pentagon-Papiere zugespielt werden, riskieren sie alles, um die Wahrheit ans Licht zu bringen. – Steven Spielbergs Drama (2017) feiert Katharine Grahams Kampf als erste Frau an der Spitze eines Medienimperiums. Mit Meryl Streep und Tom Hanks.

    1971, US-Hauptstadt Washington: Katharine "Kay" Graham kämpft im Vorstand der "Washington Post" um den Respekt ihrer männlichen Kollegen. Seit sie nach dem Tod ihres Mannes widerwillig die Leitung des Medienimperiums übernommen hat, ringt sie in Sitzungen mit stockender Stimme um Autorität – besonders jetzt, da der Börsengang der Zeitung ansteht.
    Doch dann landet ein explosives Dokument auf dem Schreibtisch von Chefredakteur Ben Bradlee: die Pentagon-Papiere, geleakt vom Whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg. Die 7.000 Seiten enthüllen, dass vier US-Präsidenten – darunter der amtierende Richard Nixon – die Öffentlichkeit über den Vietnamkrieg belogen haben. Die "New York Times" hat bereits Teile veröffentlicht und ist nun durch eine einstweilige Verfügung zum Schweigen verurteilt.
    Bradlee drängt Graham, die restlichen Dokumente zu drucken – ein riskanter Schritt: Die Veröffentlichung von Staatsgeheimnissen könnte nicht nur den Börsengang platzen lassen, sondern Graham, Bradlee und das gesamte Team wegen Hochverrats ins Gefängnis bringen ...

    Steven Spielberg inszeniert die wahren Ereignisse mit dokumentarischer Präzision und emotionaler Wucht. Meryl Streep verleiht Graham, die zur entschlossenen Führungsfigur wächst, eine zerbrechliche Stärke, während Tom Hanks als Bradlee den unbändigen Geist des Journalismus verkörpert. Janusz Kamińskis Kamera fängt die Machtkulissen Washingtons in warmen Holz- und kühlen Blautönen ein, begleitet von John Williams’ orchestral-elektronischer Filmmusik. Der Film, der 2017 – in Zeiten neuer Medienkriege – zwei Oscarnominierungen erhielt, ist eine kraftvolle Hommage an den Mut der „vierten Gewalt".

  17. Todd Haynes, Mark Ruffalo – „Vergiftete Wahrheit“ (2019)

    Todd Haynes hat das Leben von Bob Dylan verfilmt, bevor der alte Mann jüngst wieder „hip“ wurde. Und die Art und Weise, wie er das getan hat, hat ihn auf die Liste jeder Regeisseur:innen gesetzt, deren weiteres Werk unbedingt auf meine Filmliste gehören. Manchmal ist es eben nur ein einziger Film. Bei Haynes ist es nicht dabei geblieben. (ARD)

  18. Der ehemalige #OpenAI-Mitarbeiter und #Whistleblower Suchir #Balaji wurde in seiner Wohnung in San Francisco tot aufgefunden.

    mercurynews.com/2024/12/13/ope

    Der 26-Jährige hatte das Unternehmen öffentlich beschuldigt, urheberrechtlich geschützte Daten illegal für die Entwicklung von #ChatGPT genutzt zu haben.

    Sein Tod, der als #Suizid eingestuft wurde, wirft Fragen auf, da Balaji als Schlüsselfigur in laufenden Klagen gegen OpenAI galt.
