My Goal: Train 5% of America to be 1% better at protecting themselves from fascists and weirdos. Here's how I'm doing it:

- 🎙️ Just published a new episode of Stupid Sexy Privacy: How Apple Poured Billions Into a Fascist Regime: No, Not Us. The Other One. Have a listen:
- OSINT is the most boring thing to teach people. But it's also a key tool in fighting fascism. Hopefully this will get you interested in learning more about it.
- The problem with the Democratic Party is that they don't want Trump, but they don't want to fix the reasons you have Trump in the first place. Proof of this is here in NY where Hochul and State Democrats have STILL not passed NY4ALL.
- @drewforny.bsky.social Who is your press contact? For two years, Thomas DiNapoli has been auditing the Village of South Blooming Grove, but it has never ONCE been announced or shared with the public in the newsletter, where he regularly announces all audits. We would like to request comment
- My brother and Dad were almost killed yesterday. So today, I'm going going to explain how I'm using OSINT to find the person responsible. www.stupidsexyprivacy.com/osint-lets-t...
- With Trump's call to nationalize elections in "Blue States" such as New York, we need to do everything possible to ensure our elections are operating with integrity. That means every New Yorker needs to demand Letitia James do her job in South Blooming Grove: open.substack.com/pub/monroega...
- You won't believe what might stop ICE from setting up shop in Chester. www.monroegazette.com/p/crumbling-...
- If you haven't seen this from @propublica.org, I warn you it will make you angry. That said, you should still watch it. Then share it with anyone who praises Elon Musk. Or in the case of NYS Comptroller @nyscomptroller.bsky.social, who refuses to divest from Tesla. youtu.be/G7TeKNU_Dps?...
- As an FYI: As of December 2024, The New York State Common Retirement Fund held 3,515,994 shares of Tesla worth $1.42 billion. Comptroller @nyscomptroller.bsky.social can sell those shares. Below is what the Comprtoller's office told The Monroe Gazette.
- "We recognize the concerns regarding Tesla’s governance challenges, recent financial performance, and reputational risks, but we must continue to focus on long-term value and sustainability." 1/2
- "Consistent with this approach, we prioritize engagement with corporate management, and only contemplate divestment as an absolute last resort and only then when the Fund would not be negatively impacted by such action." 2/2
- This is a minor local news story. But it has national implications in terms of trust in our electoral process. Fascism thrives when trust in our institutions is low. This ain't helping to restore that trust here in New York: www.monroegazette.com/p/nobody-cou...
- Pardon me posting that link twice. I didn't catch the typo the first time and it was gnawing away at me.
