All that wonderful transparency and analytics, yet failed to uncover this here multimillion dollar Uniparty/DeepState money laundering scheme (one of many!): https://x.com/DataRepublican/status/1889172190282821690. Uncovered by just one deaf, nonverbal, female hacker working part time (until she was doxxed, she's full time now).

This is hilariously bad analysis. She doesn’t even get the names right, let alone anything else of substance.

This is perfectly emblematic of our national decline: a person with little interest in doing the work to understand things, spoon feeding their mistakes over social media to an audience with little interest in doing the work to know whether the things they read are real.

Sadly, the last art of that MO is “…knowing that if you do fuck something up critical, that other people will point out your mistakes, so you have no incentive to actually be right in the first place”.

This comment would land a lot harder if you actually mentioned any specifics.

You can't "doxx" someone working as a government advisor. The public has an absolute right to know.

She wasn't working as a government advisor until a few days ago. She was doing this in her spare time, for free. Or rather for negative amounts of money, since she was paying her own AWS fees. Her husband (who is not involved at all) was also doxxed.

Ah yes, our favorite partisan actors, who can’t be bothered to mention how much her benefactor spent just this year doing same thing.

Also, that chart is just magical, did she inflate the numbers by repeatedly adding same money being shuffled around (represented by those arrows between entities)?

Also seems to be unaware of the fact that NGO's are usually soft-power. They are either carrots or sticks in diplomacy or a cover for IC.
