Dear Elon Musk @elonmusk, Three days ago, Block, the parent of Cash App, agreed to pay roughly $764 million to the Department of Justice for failing to stop money laundering on a product that looks a lot like X Money. Regulators found Cash App’s backlog of unreviewed suspicious activity alerts went from 18,000 to 169,000 in two years. The product grew faster than the people watching it. I am writing because I believe the same thing is about to happen to you, and I would rather say so now than read about it later. My name is Everett Stern. I am the HSBC whistleblower. In 2010 I was a compliance officer who found money moving through the bank for drug cartels, terror financiers, and sanctioned regimes. I documented it. I escalated it. I was told to stop. So I took it to the United States government, the way every citizen is told to. The bank paid $1.9 billion. Nobody went to jail. And I lost everything. My career ended. I was blacklisted from the industry I had tried to protect. I slept on a cot in an apartment with cockroaches and waited tables at @PFChangs to survive. I risked my life, and for a long time I was not sure it had been worth it. I rebuilt from nothing, and I decided the rest of my life would be spent preventing the next HSBC. Last month Bank of America admitted to willfully violating the Bank Secrecy Act. More than $5 billion in suspicious transactions went unreported. 475 sanctions violations touching Russia, Iran, and global terrorism programs. The bank paid $1.2 billion, about two weeks of its profit, and not one person was charged. I wrote an open letter to Secretary Bessent asking him to refer the people responsible for criminal prosecution. 3.7 million Americans read it. Republicans and Democrats stood behind it. The Secretary never answered. No banker is going to jail. Here is the problem we are facing, in plain terms. Every terrorist attack starts with a wire transfer. Every drug death in America starts with a cartel being able to move its money. The banks know it, pay their fines, and keep going. The government knows it and takes no real action. Fourteen years after HSBC, nothing has changed, and people are dying because of it. But you can change it. You can on your own platform, from the first day, before the first alert backlog ever forms. The banks will not do it. Treasury has not done it. You could be the first person with the power to build it right who actually did. I have the highest respect for you and what you have built. I know you have no interest in supporting terrorists or drug cartels. But I have spent fourteen years watching how they work, and they are already reading your website. It promises to “pay anyone on X, free and with no limits,” a Visa card with worldwide ATM fee reimbursements, no foreign transaction fees, and wires in and out. That is a feature list for an honest customer. It is also a feature list for a cartel. You have spent three years fighting bots on this platform. The day a bot can hold a wallet, the bot problem becomes a money laundering problem. Picture a fentanyl distributor in Phoenix with two hundred burner accounts, moving $900 at a time with no limits, cashed out through an X Card at an ATM anywhere in the world by Friday, with the fees reimbursed. Regulators call that structuring. Everyone else can see what it is. Your website says a great deal about yield, cashback, and FDIC coverage. It does not say one word about how X Money verifies who a customer is or watches where the money goes. Maybe that work is being done quietly. If it is, I would be glad to be wrong. If it is not, that is the gap Block just paid $764 million for. I am asking for a conversation. With you, with whoever leads financial crimes at X Money, or with anyone there who has the power to make a difference. Please allow me the honor of helping make X Money better and protecting the financial system of the United States of America. Thank you for all you do for this country. With sincere respect, Everett A. Stern HSBC Whistleblower Founder and Intelligence Director, Tactical Rabbit

🚨 CALLOUS: Orange County DA Todd Spitzer says Newsom's death row move "literally stabbed in the heart" the families of murder victims. His words were "callous," "calculated," and "immoral." Newsom says he couldn't sleep at night otherwise. What about the families who haven't slept in decades? They waited 30 years for justice. Newsom took it away on his way out.

🚨 WOW! Jake Lang dropped BOMBS at the Dearborn council meeting, infuriating every Muslim in the room "President Trump, send ICE into Dearborn! They have overstayed their visas!" 💯 "Respectfully, get the F out of my country. We don't want you here." "We will eat your shawarma in Somalia, OK?" "They are looking to destroy everything that makes America great." "We have been taken over without a single shot fired! You will never eat like us, build buildings like us." "We know your laws in your book about lying to our faces. Pretending to be Americans, wearing your suits - but that doesn't happen anywhere else you guys are in charge." "There are 53 Muslim-majority countries. In all of them, it is tyranny, destruction, sh*thole living. We have to call it what it is!" "America first, America only...Jesus is King."

.@VDHanson just laid out an economic reality that completely blew my mind, and it exposes the biggest messaging failure leading up to the midterms. While we were all fighting over the races, an economic boom was emerging right under our noses: “165,000 new jobs were just announced and they were saying 45 a month ago. The poverty rate was at an all-time low at 10.5. The per capita family income is $87,000, a new record. The GDP was just revised at 3.4, and the Atlanta Fed said it’ll be 5 by the end of the year. Nobody’s talking; we’re just fighting, and we are in the midst of a boom that is emerging. And I look back at 2022 when the red wave dissipated, and why did the blue wave not? So I compared the data. The stock market, at least until yesterday, was 20,000 points higher now than when Biden stopped the red wave. And income is $14,000 higher than it was just four years ago. So then people say, ‘It’s inflation. It’s gas.’ Well, no, it isn’t, because that was a 9.1 record inflation year in 2022. And gas on election day was somewhere between $3.95 and $4.05… It’s $4.06 today. So what I’m getting at, the economy was a wreck. The GDP was lower, the inflation was three times higher, the gas was about the same, people were furious… what was the difference?”

The person who hurt you didn’t ruin your story—they built your spine. ​We spend years searching for reasons, carrying resentments like heavy stones in our pockets, wondering why certain people entered our lives only to bring friction, betrayal, or heartbreak. ​As a physician, I see the toll unresolved bitterness takes on the human heart. It hardens arteries just as easily as it hardens souls. But when you shift your lens, everything changes: ​The good ones brought light when you were weary. The difficult ones forced you to set boundaries you never knew you needed. The worst ones gave you lessons that became your armor. And the rare ones left memories that will warm you until your final breath. ​None of them was an accident. Every encounter was a curriculum. Every person was a messenger sent to carve away what you were never meant to be. ​When you wake up, stop demanding an apology from the past. Thank the universe for the crucible. ​Modeh Ani. I am grateful for the breath, the journey, and every teacher along the road. ​Share this with someone who needs to release an old grudge today. ​Read the deeper reflection on resilience, healing, and life: 🔗 substack.com/@afshineemrani ​#ModehAni #Wisdom #Healing #Mindset #Gratitude #LifeLessons #InnerPeace #CardiologyOfLife #Perspective

So what if a Muslim wins an election in America and becomes a congressman or senator? Why is that any different from a Buddhist winning an election? Because Buddhism is a religion. Islam is a state. Islam has a population: the ummah. It has a constitution: Sharia. It has courts, criminal law, family law, taxation, rules for minorities, doctrines of war and peace, and a foreign-policy framework governing relations between the land of Islam and the lands outside it. The ummah is not tied to Egypt, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, or any other modern country. It crosses all of them. Islam's population "Muslims" belong to one political-religious community. That is fundamentally different from Buddhism. A Buddhist American may practice Buddhism faithfully, but Buddhism does not give him a second universal political order with its own law, sovereignty, territorial doctrine, and theory of government. Islam does. This is why reducing Islam to “just another religion” misses the point. Muslim officeholders are literally citizens of another existing country, and their loyalties can never be American first, because the two projects are contradictory. Add to that the religious hatred of Jews in Islam and the special relationship between Israel and America. A Muslim in a position of power in America, with a religious mandate to hate Jews, will not approach Israel from the perspective of what is in America’s best interest, but rather from the perspective of what Islam commands him to do.

🚨 THIS is the speech that should terrify every American. Senator Tim Sheehy just dropped the most brutal, unfiltered truth about Iran you’ll ever hear. For 47 years the Iranian regime has been hunting us — vaporizing Marines, skinning Americans alive on camera, cutting our troops in half with EFPs, and celebrating every death. They don’t care who you voted for. They don’t care where you live. They want every single one of us raped, burned, and cut into pieces. This isn’t politics. This is a death cult that has been at war with America since 1979… and we’ve been pretending otherwise. Watch the full speech. Every. Single. Second. Then share it. Because the regime that did this to our brothers is still standing. Iran has never paid the real price. It’s time they do.

American says “Islam cannot have Detroit. Islam is a religion of hate not peace. We have been deceived by the lukewarm Islam. But the truth is that they are a takeover religion “We are seeing Islam taking over the nation, and we're turning a blind eye because we are used to the lukewarm Islam. We have seen the brothers and sisters say Islam is not dangerous, they are so kind. Say that to the nations that have been taken over where people are no longer free. Say that to the nations where they are being controlled. Women are being stoned. Women are not free to walk around” “Detroit, they are taking your land — Islam is going to take over this nation if we don't stand up and do something about it. They're taking over your businesses. They're buying churches, building mosques everywhere. This is not by mistake. They already took Dearborn. Detroit is next” “Wake up Christians we are in a Spiritual war” This woman gets it. We are in the middle of the Islamic takeover of America Detroit already has 35 mosques. The greater Detroit areas already has about 104 mosques The hour is later than you realize

🚨 SILENCE: Austin Payne was a 15-year-old white boy from Albany, Georgia. His mom found him dead inside an abandoned apartment after tracking his phone there. He called her on Halloween night to say he had been SHOT and needed help. Police have charged three black teenagers, ages 15 and 16, and a 22-year-old black man, Detravion Parker, with MURDER. The national media has barely said a word. Imagine if the races were reversed. It would be wall-to-wall coverage for weeks, and we all know it. Austin deserves justice, and his name deserves to be said.
4 black teens killed a 15-year-old white boy named Austin Payne this week in Georgia 0 national coverage

I’m in agreement From Fox News. I wonder how loud it’ll get if Trump could pull this off. It will be interesting. President Trump is asking everyone to share this, in three days, most people in the United States will have seen the message. This is an idea that should be passed around, regardless of political party. The TRUMP Rules: 1. Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office. And no more perks go with them. 2. Congress (past, present, & future) participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose. 3. Congress must purchase their own retirement plan, just as ALL Americans do. 4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise at the ok same rate as the COLA for monthly Social Security recipients minus 1% if having a budget balance deficit. 5. Congress loses their current care system and participates in the same health care system (Medicare) as the American people. 6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people (i.e. NO MORE INSIDER TRADING!!!). 7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women. Congress made all these contracts by and for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor and privilege, NOT a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators should serve their term(s), then go home and go back to work … not get all kinds of freebies. Term limits of 2 terms and treat them like a regular citizen I AGREE SO I’M SHARING!

An Iranian man who lived through the 1979 Revolution just dropped a raw warning after America elected its first Muslim US Senator (Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan) and NYC’s Muslim democratic-socialist mayor (Zohran Mamdani). “Why on earth do you think some of these people you’ve elected will make your life better?” He says Iranians like him are “allergic to having Muslims in politics” because they watched religious figures come in under the cover of socialism and democracy, topple the monarchy, and deliver something far worse. “Islam doesn’t build, it destroys. It’s about death and destruction and murder.”

I spent 40 months in Afghanistan in the Army watching what Sharia does to women. Women have NO voice (not even allowed to be HEARD singing), not allowed to vote, get brutally BEATEN for being out and about with no male escort, sold as wives to old ass men as children as young as 8. I saw ALL this up close. Every day. You can scroll my page and see multiple women reaching out from inside those countries sharing their stories. DO NOT listen to these dip shits saying that couldn't happen here! Look at pictures of Afghanistan from the 1960s and 70s. They had freedoms and women were even able to work. You know what happened? They allowed a Marxist government to take over and did not fight tooth and nail to protect their country or their women. PICK UP A BOOK. Not Tik Tok. Educate yourselves through people who have lived it. Anybody pushing this jihadist bullsh*t here gets zero benefit of the doubt from me. Your vote COUNTS here, get out and vote. 🇺🇸🪖And for the love of our country, our freedom and our future, VOTE RED!
