"I listen to the sound of bells... to water, air, and light... The laughter of the children playing down below--alive, and happy, and free. And it's then that, for the first time, I don't grieve for our son. He is here with us. He is here with the birds, and the boys, and the freedom he bought with his choice, his love, his sacrifice. I remember our son and that last thing he asked, that last question... Where do the birds go when it rains? Where do the birds go when it rains... They take shelter. And when the rain have passed... they take flight."
Bombshells: United (2017-2018) Vol. 2: War Bonds.
Jason's so brave. 😭

One reason why my books on hidden history have proven popular is because I discuss forgotten incidents and people. Mining those memory holes produces some significant gems. What’s frustrating is the inability to find updates on important stories. It’s as if the stories themselves have been slain, left forever frozen in time.
In a December 8, 1954 television interview with Longines Chronoscope, which is still available on YouTube, Admiral Richard Byrd spoke of “an area as big as the United States, that’s never been seen by human beings. And that’s beyond the pole, on the other side of the South Pole….And I think it’s quite astonishing that there should be an area as big as that unexplored.” Those questioning him on this early panel show, set the template for our modern “journalists,” by quickly changing the subject. None of these representatives of a supposed “free press” found that statement- which contradicts what we are told regarding the geography of the area- interesting enough for any follow up questions?
Admiral Byrd is acknowledged as one of the greatest- if not the greatest explorer of all time. He couldn’t be painted as a “kook,” and cannot be converted into a “conspiracy theorist” by our beloved “fact checkers.” Byrd was never asked to elaborate on his bombshell comments, before his death on March 11, 1957. The Antarctica Treaty was signed on December 1, 1959, paving the way for future speculation about flat earth, hollow earth, and secret alien bases, among other things. I spoke to Byrd’s grandson in 2017, and he claimed never to have heard about these remarks. He told me that he would talk to his brother about it, and get back to me. I never heard from him again. Byrd’s son Richard Evelyn Byrd III died very curiously, being found in a warehouse. Wearing one shoe. Supposed Alzheimer’s, which his children denied.

ChatGPT has made quite the stir in China: virtually every major tech company is keen on developing its own artificial intelligence chatbot. Baidu has announced plans to release its own strain sometime next month. This newfound obsession is in line with paramount Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s strategic prioritization of AI development—dating back to at least 2017—in China’s race to become the world’s dominant AI player and ultimately a “science and technology superpower.” And while the development of large language model (LLM) bots such as ChatGPT is just one facet of the future of AI, LLMs will, as one leading AI scientist recently put it, “define artificial intelligence.” Indeed, the sudden popularity of ChatGPT has at Google “upended the work of numerous groups inside the company to respond to the threat that ChatGPT poses”—a clarion indicator of the arguably outsized importance of LLMs.
Yet, China’s aspirations to become a world-leading AI superpower are fast approaching a head-on collision with none other than its own censorship regime. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) prioritizes controlling the information space over innovation and creativity, human or otherwise. That may dramatically hinder the development and rollout of LLMs, leaving China to find itself a pace behind the West in the AI race.
According to a bombshell report from Nikkei Asia, Chinese regulators have instructed key Chinese tech companies not to offer ChatGPT services “amid growing alarm in Beijing over the AI-powered chatbot’s uncensored replies to user queries.” A cited justification, from state-sponsored newspaper China Daily, is that such chatbots “could provide a helping hand to the U.S. government in its spread of disinformation and its manipulation of global narratives for its own geopolitical interests.”
The fundamental problem is that plenty of speech is forbidden in China—and the political penalties for straying over the line are harsh. A chatbot that produces racist content or threatens to stalk a user makes for an embarrassing story in the United States; a chatbot that implies Taiwan is an independent country or says Tiananmen Square was a massacre can bring down the wrath of the CCP on its parent company.
Ensuring that LLMs never say anything disparaging about the CCP is a genuinely herculean and perhaps impossible task. As Yonadav Shavit, a computer science Ph.D. student at Harvard University, put it: “Getting a chatbot to follow the rules 90% of the time is fairly easy. But getting it to follow the rules 99.99% of the time is a major unsolved research problem.” LLMs output is unpredictable, and they learn from natural language produced by humans, which is of course subject to inference, bias, and inaccuracies. Thus users can with little effort “hypnotize” or “trick” models into producing outputs the developer fastidiously tries to prevent. Indeed, Shavit reminded us that, “so far, when clever users have actively tried to get a model to break its own rules, they’ve always succeeded.
“Getting language models to consistently follow any rules at all, even simple rules like ‘never threaten your user,’ is the key research problem of the next generation of AI,” Shavit said.
What are Chinese engineers to do, then? The Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) won’t take it easy on a Chinese tech company just because it’s hard to control its chatbot. One potential solution would be to prevent the model from learning about, say, the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre. But as Shavit observed, “No one really knows how to get a model trained on most of the internet to not learn basic facts.”
Another option would be for the LLM to spit out a form response like, “As a Baidu chatbot, I cannot …” if there’s a chance that criticism of the CCP would follow—similar to how ChatGPT responds to emotive or erotic requests. But again, given the stochastic nature of chatbots, that option doesn’t guarantee that politically objectionable speech to the CCP could never arise.
In that case, the de facto method by which Chinese AI companies compete among one another would involve feeding clever and suggestive prompts to an opponent’s AI chatbot, waiting until it produces material critical of the CCP, and forwarding a screenshot to the CAC. That’s what happened with Bluegogo, a bikeshare company. In early June 2017, the app featured a promotion using tank icons around Tiananmen Square. The $140 million company folded immediately. Although most guessed that Bluegogo had been hacked by a competitor, to the CCP that defense was clearly irrelevant. And while this one-off example may not account for the complexities and possibilities that could emerge in a Chinese chatbot market—one could imagine, for example, the CCP leveraging LLMs to project their influence globally, as it already does with TikTok—as Mercatus Center research fellow Matthew Mittelsteadt wrote, the fall of Bluegogo demonstrated quite well the CCP’s “regulatory brittleness,” which would need to change if China wants a “thriving generative AI industry.”
For what it’s worth, former Assistant Secretary for Policy at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Stewart Baker on Feb. 20 publicized a lavishly generous offer, given his current salary at Steptoe and Johnson LLP: “The person who gets Baidu’s AI to say the rudest possible thing about Xi Jinping or the Chinese Communist Party will get a cash prize—and, if they are a Chinese national, I will personally represent them in their asylum filing in the United States. You’ll get a green card, you’ll get U.S. citizenship, and you’ll get a cash prize if you win this contest.”
Chinese tech companies have received, to say the least, mixed signals from the top. On one hand, government officials express routine confidence in China’s inexorable surge in AI development and the important role that LLMs will play. Chen Jiachang, the director-general of the Department of High and New Technology of the Ministry of Science and Technology, said at a Feb. 24 press conference, “the Ministry of Science and Technology is committed to supporting AI as a strategic emerging industry and a key driver of economic growth,” and added that one of the “important directions for the development of AI is human-machine dialogue based on natural language understanding.”
Wang Zhigang, the minister of science and technology, followed up: “We have taken corresponding measures in terms of ethics for any new technology, including AI technology, to ensure that the development of science and technology is beneficial and poses no harm and to leverage its benefits better.” And Yi Weidong, an American-educated professor at the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, wrote, “We are confident that China has the ability to surpass the world’s advanced level in the field of artificial intelligence applications.”
But the government’s own censoriousness over ChatGPT already suggests serious problems. So far regulators have focused on foreign products. In a recent writeup, Zhou Ting (dean of the School of Government and Public Affairs at the Communication University of China) and Pu Cheng (a Ph.D. student there) write that the dangers of AI chatbots include “becoming a tool in cognitive warfare,” prolonging international conflicts, damaging cybersecurity, and exacerbating global digital inequality. For example, Zhou and Pu cite an unverified ChatGPT conversation in which the bot justified the United States shooting down a hypothetical Chinese civilian balloon floating over U.S. airspace, yet answered that China should not shoot down such a balloon originating from the United States.
Interestingly, those at the top haven’t explicitly mentioned their censorship concerns or demands, instead relying on traditional and wholly expected anti-Western propagandized narratives. But their angst is felt nonetheless, and it’s not hard to see where it fundamentally comes from. Xi has no tolerance for dissent. Yet that fear leads in a straight line to regulatory reticence in China’s AI rollout.
And now is not a good time to send mixed signals about—let alone put the brakes on—the rollout of potentially game-changing technology. After all, one reason underscoring Xi’s goal to transform China into a science and technology superpower is such an achievement would alleviate some of the impending perils of demographic trends and slowing growth that may catch China in the dreaded middle-income trap.
To weather these challenges in the long run—and to fully embrace revolutionary technology of all stripes—the CCP needs an economic system able to stomach creative destruction without falling apart. The absence of such a system would be precarious: If Xi grows worried that, for instance, AI-powered automation will displace too many jobs and thus metastasize the risk of social unrest, he would have to make a hard choice between staying competitive in the tech race and mitigating short-term unrest.
But there he would have to pick his poison, as either option, ironically, would result in increased political insecurity. No doubt Xi recalls that the rapid economic changes of the 1980s, including high inflation and failed price reforms, contributed to the unrest which culminated in 1989 at Tiananmen Square.
To be sure, even in democracies with liberal protections of speech and expression, AI regulations are still very much a work in progress. In the United States, for example, University of North Carolina professor Matt Perault noted that courts would likely find ChatGPT and other LLMs to be “information content providers”—i.e. content creators—because they “develop,” at least in part, information to a content host. If this happens, ChatGPT won’t qualify for Section 230 immunity (given to online platforms under U.S. law to prevent them being held responsible for content provided by third parties) and could thereby be held legally liable for the content it outputs. Due to the risk of costly legal battles, Perault wrote, companies will “narrow the scope and scale of [LLM] deployment dramatically” and will “inevitably censor legitimate speech as well.” Moreover, while Perault suggests several common-sense proposals to avert such an outcome—such as adding a time-delay LLM carveout to Section 230—he admits none of them is “likely to be politically feasible” in today’s U.S. Congress.
Recently, Brookings Institution fellow Alex Engler discussed a wide gamut of potential AI regulations the United States and EU may consider. They include watermarking (hidden patterns in AI-generated content to distinguish between AI- and human-generated content), “model cards” (disclosures on how an AI model performs in various conditions), human review of AI-generated content, and information-sharing requirements. Engler, however, repeatedly observed that such regulations are insufficient, no panacea, and in any case “raise many key questions,” such as in the realm of enforcement and social impact.
Even so, these Western regulatory hurdles pale in comparison to what Chinese chatbot-developing companies will be up against—if for no other reason than Chinese regulators will require AI companies to do the impossible: guarantee, somehow, that their probabilistic LLM never says anything bad about the CCP. And given that pre-chatbot AI was already testing the limits of the CCP’s human censors—overwhelmed censors are one potential, albeit partial, explanation for how the white paper protests of late 2022 swelled into a nationwide movement—the CCP is all the more likely to fear what generative AI may do to its surveillance complex.
If LLMs end up being a genuinely transformative technology rather than an amusing online plaything, whichever country discovers how to best harness their power will come out on top. Doing so will take good data, efficient algorithms, top talent, and access to computing power—but it will also take institutions that can usher in effective productivity changes. Particularly if AI tech diffuses relatively smoothly across borders, it is the regulatory response which will determine how governments and firms wield its power.

HAVE WE VISITORS FROM SPACE?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In 2017 Luis Elizondo resigned from him 22 year career with the United States Military. In his reignition letter to his boss, Jim Mattis - the Secretary of Defense and the sixth highest ranking person in The United States Government.
He lays out his reasonings with astonishing clarity, as he informs the head of the United Armed Forces that after ten consecutive years on his current assignment, his consensus is that Unidentifiable Crafts with unknow origin and intent both have and continue to pose a threat to The United States, our military assets, as well as our nuclear arsenal - and that high-ranking government and military officials are ignoring this issue at the expense of our national security.
He claims that these crafts defy the laws of physics and aerodynamics as we currently understand them, including breaking the sound barrier with no sonic boom, they possess trans-medium capabilities (meaning they've been observed operating in our oceans, skies, as well as in Space), they have no detectable means of propulsion (heat signatures, exhaust fumes, etc), and that they perform astonishing feats such as perfectly executed sharp angle turns and reversing direction as supersonic speeds,  as well as ascending and descending thousands of a vertical miles in literal split-seconds. 
 And they don't know who, or what, it is. 
 "The department must take seriously the many accounts by the Navy and other services of Unusual Aerial Systems interfering with military weapons platforms and displaying beyond next generation capabilities. There remains a vital need to ascertain the origin and intent of these phenomena for the benefit of the Armed Forces, and the Nation.  
I humbly summit my resignation in hopes that it will encourage you to ask the hard questions:
- Who else knows?
- What are their capabilities?
- And why aren't we spending more time and effort on this issue?" 
Two months later in December of 2017, apparently unhappy with the response (or lack thereof) that this received - Luis Elizondo introduced himself to the world on the front page of the New York Times, and he brought receipts. 
 Along with releasing three videos of Unidentified Flying Objects being tracked by United States Military Fighter Pilots, he also exposed the existence of the department in which he headed - A.A.T.I.P: The Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, which was formed by United States Senators, Aerospace Billionaires, and the United States Navy; it had been secretly operating from within the Pentagon for the last 10 years.
In the five years following this initial New York Times article in 2017; Lue along with an ever-growing list of military and government officials (including every living former United States President) from around the world have continued to elaborate more on this issue - revealing information that is just as unbelievable as it apparently is undeniable, and unavoidable. 
 As if those details aren't eyebrow raising enough, the simple confirmation of the existence of a Pentagon-backed program dedicated to investigating UFO's in modern times was itself a bombshell; with the last publicly acknowledged Government or Military funded program to do so being publicly terminated 54 years ago. 
That project, which would come to be known as 'PROJECT BLUE BOOK' was launched and led by the United States Air Force following a flurry of UFO activity and sightings all over the country in the 40s, 50s, and 60s which saw UFO's which were confirmed by both military and civilian radar equipment, droves of eyewitnesses from coast to coast, and some of the highest-ranking members of the United States Government and Military.  
These objects hovered over military compounds, engaged with civilian aircraft, and freely roamed through some of the most secure and restricted airspace on the planet - above the White House, as well as other protected aeras of Washington D.C.
This wouldn't be the end of military or governmental investigations into the matter, nor was it the beginning - as the most incredible reports and sightings date back to biblical times, are scattered all throughout history and over the world, and literally carved into stone by our ancestors. 
This first installment is just an introduction to this series, which will detail the most incredible and important story in all of Human History. In this age of uncertainty, one thing undeniably clear: the truth really is out there, and now some of the most informed, important, and power people in the world are openly discussing it. 
The question is: Why? 
 BLACK MONEY: PART TWO, COMING SOON.

Failed Qanon predictions
QAnon's first prediction was that Hillary Clinton was about to be arrested and would attempt to flee the country. This prediction failed. Other failed predictions include:
The "Storm" would take place on November 3, 2017. There were no notable events in US politics on that day.
A major event involving the Department of Defense would take place on February 1, 2018. No significant event involving the Department happened that day.
People targeted by the president would commit suicide en masse on February 10, 2018. No prominent people committed suicide that day.
There would be a car bombing in London around February 16, 2018. There was no bombing.
A "smoking gun" video of Hillary Clinton would emerge in March 2018. No video appeared.
Something major would happen in Chongqing on April 10, 2018. Nothing notable happened in Chongqing that day.
There would be a "bombshell" revelation about North Korea in May 2018. There were no notable developments.
The "Storm" would take place on January 20, 2021, the day of Biden's inauguration. No coup took place and Biden was peacefully inaugurated.
The Trump military parade would "never be forgotten". The parade was canceled.
The Five Eyes "won't be around much longer". The Five Eyes still exists as of October 2021. (An intelligence sharing agreement between the US, Uk, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.)
Multiple failed predictions that John McCain would resign from the US Senate. McCain remained in the Senate until his death in August 2018.
Multiple failed predictions that Mark Zuckerberg would leave Facebook and flee the United States. Zuckerberg remains CEO of Facebook.
Multiple failed predictions that Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey would be forced to resign. Dorsey remains CEO of Twitter as of October 2021.
Multiple failed predictions that Pope Francis would be arrested on felony charges. Francis has not been arrested and remains Pope.
Multiple failed predictions that "something big" would happen or the truth would emerge "next week".
Multiple failed predictions that Donald Trump would be re-inaugurated on January 20, 2021, despite losing the election. Joe Biden was inaugurated as planned on January 20.
Donald Trump would be inaugurated on March 4, 2021, as the 19th president. This claim stems from a conspiracy theory stating that the District of Columbia Organic Act of 1871 made the United States into a corporation (a theory developed by the sovereign citizen movement). Therefore, Trump would have been inaugurated as the 19th president (after Ulysses S. Grant) and the country would cease to be a corporation and once again become the country started by the Founding Fathers. March 4 is the inauguration date because the 20th Amendment changed the date to January 20, and no amendments to the U.S. Constitution since 1869 are recognized. Joe Biden remains the incumbent president of the United States, counted as the 46th.
Donald Trump would be inaugurated again on March 20, 2021. After this failed to transpire, QAnon "delayed" the inauguration date to March 20, then to August 13. Biden remained president.
*Qanon is intertwined with and amplified by; The Republican National Committee (GOP), The Sovereign Citizen Movement, The Falun Gong pseudo religion and it’s media arm the Epoch Times, Alex Jones’ Infowars, Breitbart, the Militia Movement (III%, Oathkeepers, Proud Boys, Patriot Prayer, & the Boogaloo Movement), the Koch political network, Jim Watkins (believed to be the 1st Q) and his son Ron Watkins (believed to be the current Q), various Trump aides (such as Dan Scavino, Brad Parscale, & Steve Bannon), Congress members Boebert/Greene, and tv commentators on Fox, OAN, & Newsmax. This a partial list.

"It is to laugh, huh Mister J?"
Harley Quinn, created by Paul Dini and Bruce Timm, was once intended to serve as a one-and-done character for an episode of Batman: The Animated Series. However, due to the charm of her voice actress (and real life inspiration) Arleen Sorkin, audiences around the world quickly grew attached to the jester and her antics. Harley would make her first comic appearance in 1993 with The Batman Adventures #12, a series which tied into the beloved cartoon. It wasn’t until 1999 that the Cupid of Crime made her main continuity debut in Batman: Harley Quinn. Since then, Harley has starred in a surplus of comics, television shows, video games, movies, and more. There are also several different interpretations of the character within this collection of media.
Under the cut is an extensive list of recommended content that captures the true essence of Harley Quinn, as your official QUINN-tessential reading and watching guide! For easy navigation, the guide has been divided into six main categories: BTAS Verse, Pre-Flashpoint, Post-Flashpoint, Elseworlds, Television + Film, and Other Media.
Basic Content
Batman: The Animated Series
The New Batman Adventures
The Batman Adventures: Mad Love (1993)
Batman: Harley Quinn (1999)
Harley Quinn (2000) #1-25

Please note that this guide does not contain every appearance of Harley Quinn. Most notably in the Post-Flashpoint, Elseworlds, and Television + Film categories. What it does contain, however, is a carefully constructed collection of what is essential when it comes to learning about Harley as a character.
