What’s with Gulfstream Golf Club’s GUSHING outfall pipe pouring bright green, foul-smelling water directly into the Intracoastal Waterway in Boynton Beach?! LOOK AT THIS! I reported this outflow today, as seen from our boat, to @MyFWC and @FLDEPNews. I don’t care whether it’s algae, fertilizer, soap, chemicals or something else. It is gross and unacceptable! I helped secure $15 MILLION to protect and restore these waterways. The public deserves to know WHAT is flowing into them and whether it is permitted! 📍 .6 mi S of Woolbright Bridge 26.50518, -80.05669 @SFWMD @HealthyFla @pbcgov @cityofboynton @SunSentinel @pbpost @MiamiHerald @EDF_Florida @FLDEPNews @FLDEPAlert @SFWMD_EM @FlWildFed @FLEnvironmental @RodBarretoMiami

America’s corporate governance system is broken, and it’s killing public companies. Look no further than Cracker Barrel: Decades of brutal mismanagement have seen one incompetent CEO after another walk away with a massive paycheck while customers and actual shareholders take a beating. Why does this keep happening? Because proxy advisory firms like ISS are corrupt. They blindly rubber-stamp failing boards year after year, protecting the corporate elite while burning shareholder value to the ground. The root of the rot is index funds. There's no question that indexing one's money is a smart financial move for most people. But just because you passively index your investments doesn't mean your corporate votes should be handed over to the managers of your fund so they can play politics. Right now, passive funds hold massive, unchecked voting blocks while having zero skin in the game themselves. It is time for a simple rewrite of the rules: We need to index the votes of index fund investors. Passive index funds should be forced to automatically split their votes to proportionately mirror those of retail and active institutional shareholders — the people actually doing the research, risking their capital, and fighting for performance in the companies they hold shares in. No more rubber-stamping. A change like this will immediately strip corrupt gatekeepers like ISS of their toxic influence. True accountability happens when lazy, overpaid boards actually answer to the stakeholders they represent, rather than screwing them over. Actual, logic-driven governance when your money is passive happens when your vote passively follows the voting decisions of the actual market. We need to stop letting passive capital protect active incompetence. By stripping index funds of their arbitrary voting power and empowering engaged investors, we will finally torch corporate cronyism and usher American capital markets into a golden age of capitalism.

This dog owner looking for his slipper

Adam is 100% right and these fake securities will be a disaster that has the potential to BK Robinhood again (i say again as they had to be bailed out once already.) it also has the potential to cause another financial crisis. Synthetic securities are just a Ponzi scheme. This must be stopped, unfortunately the current regulators seem fine with Robinhood being a gambling app but yet is SEC registered.

I'm a second-generation bookseller. My family runs Houston's largest used & rare bookstore and I'm building an AI tool for used bookstores. We got hit by exactly these orders, including a single order for 70 obscure books that made us pause online sales entirely. So I dug in. I don't think this connects the way people want it to. Every ingredient of the viral story is true. ISBNdb really does advertise sourcing books for AI companies. Anthropic really did destructively scan millions of books though they were mostly acquired through things like library deaccessions, not bookstore inventory. And booksellers really are getting bizarre bulk orders. But "rare" here isn't what you're picturing. It's The Insider's Guide to Metro Denver (1995) and how-to-use-WordPerfect 1991 manuals. Obscure, but often not precious. When we combed through our orders, nearly every book bought from us was either unavailable on Amazon or listed there at 5, 10, 20x our price on the platform they were purchased on. And the shipments are going to FBA prep companies: which is what you do with a book you're about to resell, not one you're about to cut apart. There is more than circumstantial evidence that this is a well-funded company running algorithmic arbitrage, buying underpriced or out-of-stock books to relist on Amazon at markup. This evidence includes an official denial that they are selling to train AI but I don't want to mention them for several reasons. You can Google it. That's more mundane than the shredder story. The actual risk is worse, though, because it's quieter: books that don't sell via FBA eventually get liquidated. If we really hold the last copies of some of these (and comparing platforms, it looks like we might) we're feeding them into a portal they may not come back from. No AI company required. Everyone assumes the internet preserved everything. It didn't. Many of these books have almost no metadata anywhere, just a scattered listings across proprietary databases then nothing. That's what my project is for: building better bibliographic records for these books than exist anywhere else, so we at least have a map of what we stand to lose. So the Library of Alexandria is still burning, just more slowly, and kore from “who cares” than from some cinematic villain. (I am open to being corrected.)

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024.

BEFORE YOU BOARD YOUR NEXT FLIGHT READ THIS A former airline captain named John Hoyte reached out to me recently. He spent nearly 30 years flying commercial aircraft, developed serious neurological damage, lost his career, and has been trying to get this story properly investigated ever since. He sent me documents spanning two decades. The scale of what is in them is HUGE. What he shared includes parliamentary records, a 320-page published report from the British pilots union, @BBC coverage, House of Lords testimony, and active litigation in multiple countries. This has been heard at the highest levels. It has largely been buried. Most commercial jet aircraft use a system called bleed air. Instead of drawing fresh air from outside, the plane takes compressed air directly from the engines and pumps it into the cabin. That is the air you breathe for the entire flight. When engine seals wear down, oil and hydraulic fluid can leak into that air supply. Those fluids contain organophosphates, the same compounds found in certain pesticides and nerve agents. Inhaling them can cause neurological damage, memory loss, and chronic fatigue. In documented cases, far worse. This design has been in use since the 1950s. The health risk has been documented for just as long. In 2005, @BALPApilots, the British pilots union, published a full conference report on this with the University of New South Wales. The following year, 27 BALPA pilots were tested by University College London. All 27 showed evidence of toxic poisoning and reduced cognitive function. Not some of them. All of them. @BBCPanorama covered it in 2008. The House of Lords Science and Technology Committee heard evidence on it in 2007 and 2008. In February 2007, 40 unrelated passengers on a single XL Airways flight were seriously injured by contaminated cabin air. Their cases went to court. Twenty of them won a US jurisdiction ruling in 2010. A UK coroner recorded a death linked to this in 2015. France has formally recognised aerotoxic syndrome as an occupational disease. In the US, a law professor is suing Boeing for $40 million after a single exposure left him permanently injured. Morgan & Morgan, America's largest personal injury firm, is now actively taking mass cases on behalf of passengers and crew. John himself was one of those 27 pilots tested by UCL. He founded the Aerotoxic Association in 2007 at the Houses of Parliament to support other survivors. He has been fighting for this for nearly 20 years. Almost every commercial jet aircraft except the Boeing 787 Dreamliner uses the bleed air system. The 787 uses a different design that avoids this problem entirely. That safer design has existed for years. That fact alone says everything. BBC has not covered this story since 2020. The UK Civil Aviation Authority continues to say there is no positive evidence of a link. The Aerotoxic Association has been contacted by more than 2,500 people who believe they have been affected. John is looking for mainstream investigative journalists who want to dig deep into this. He is an expert witness with decades of evidence and is willing to answer every question. He has a passenger injured on that 2007 flight, Samantha Sabatino, whose case is in the parliamentary record. This is a genuine story of enormous public interest and it deserves proper investigation. If you are a journalist or researcher and want to speak to John directly, his contact details are in the comments. I will add media coverage links in the comments section.

Let me give you an example of where there is no gov intervention, and the impact on brand drug pricing. When a brand manufacturer sells a drug to one of the big 3 drug distributors that control more than 90 pct of their market, those multi hundred billion dollar distributors DONT negotiate the lowest price they can get. They literally pay retail price. Then, in exchange for paying promptly, and providing some data, they get a discount of a whopping 5 pct. For a $600 drug, their net cost is $570 For obvious reasons, that distributor can’t sell to your local pharmacy for less than $570. So when you go to buy that drug, and have no insurance, or a deductible of more than $600, that’s why you pay the full $600. The question is “why would multi hundred billion dollar distributors only negotiate a 5% discount on brand drugs?” I asked this very question to several CEOs of brand drugs companies First you have to know that the pharma companies don’t keep that full $570. Because they pay rebates and fees to the big insurance company PBMs , they end up netting about 50% , or $300 in this example I asked them why they didn’t sell to the big distributors at a little more than their net price, which would allow them to make more money. And it would also allow the distributors to sell to pharmacies at say $350 (so the distributors make more money ), and the pharmacies could sell to the uninsured and those during their deductible phase for $375. Meaning more patients could benefit from their drugs. This doesn’t mean every patient could afford their meds, but it means that more could. Saving $225 is not nothing. The CEOs each told me that they would like to, but can’t. Why? Because the ins company PBMs have told them that if they did this , they would reduce their position on their formularies. Which could cost them billions of dollars across all their drugs. None of this is against the law. It’s become standard industry practice. Until we break up these conglomerates , it will only get worse.
