FBI Reopens Investigations into White House Cocaine Discovery and Supreme Court Leak
If I can recall the cocaine incident was covered up. They found it in an area reserved for staff entry only. But then said it could have been planted by any visitor as well. They had CCTV of the area also but claimed no leads using this. Personally, I think Harris dropped it there. Or was placed there to pick up later by someone else. But that is my opinion only especially after seeing videos of Harris after she lost the elections.. She looked haggard and high or drunk. -

All Vaccines Will Kill You - The evidence is overwhelming
So are you implying that the stuff you cut and pasted disproves vaccines and proves” “All Vaccines Will Kill You - The evidence is overwhelming” – yet you are unable to comment on this yourself – presumably because you don’t understand it. I think it’s is a crucial point in rational scepticism to dismantle bogus "appeals to authority" that conspiracy theorists like yourself love to misuse (e.g., “This scientist questions vaccines, so they must be right about everything”). Being brilliant in one theory or domain doesn't guarantee someone immune to bad ideas elsewhere. Here are some notable examples of scientists who made groundbreaking contributions, but also promoted fringe, pseudoscientific, or outright bizarre ideas… Isaac Newton – Father of modern physics… and obsessed with alchemy One of the most brilliant scientists in history, yet, he spent decades trying to turn lead into gold and searching for hidden messages in the Bible. Linus Pauling – Two-time Nobel laureate… and vitamin C fanatic - Revolutionized chemistry and won the Nobel Peace Prize and then later became obsessed with mega doses of vitamin C as a cure-all — including for cancer — despite lack of solid evidence. His claims have spawned decades of quack medicine. Francis Crick – Co-discoverer of DNA structure… and believer in “directed panspermia” Brilliant geneticist, later promoted the idea that life on Earth was seeded by aliens. Purely speculative and outside the bounds of conventional science. Do you sill eat octopus and squid? Kary Mullis – Invented PCR… and denied HIV causes AIDS - Nobel Prize-winning biochemist who invented a key method used in modern virology. Denied HIV's role in AIDS, backed astrology, and claimed to have encountered glowing raccoons while high on LSD. Nikola Tesla – Electrical genius… and believer in communication with extraterrestrials - Pioneered AC electricity and wireless transmission. Also believed he received signals from aliens and made outlandish claims about "death rays" and energy beams. The moral of this story is - Even the brightest minds can hold bizarre beliefs. What matters in science isn’t who says it, but whether it's backed by evidence, reproducibility, and peer review. So when someone says, “But this Nobel scientist supports my theory…” — remind them: even geniuses need data. There is an obvious irony here - The moment a respected scientist says something weird or fringe, conspiracy theorists don’t see a red flag — they see a golden ticket. Instead of asking, “Does this claim have evidence?”, they shout - “See? Even a Nobel Prize winner agrees with me!” They ignore the thousands of experts who disagree — and cling to the one outlier, even if that person has clearly veered off the rails. It's confirmation bias at its purest: the scientist is brilliant until they say something mainstream — then suddenly they’re “paid off by Big Pharma.” to sum it up Conspiracy Logic 101 – 1 expert saying something weird = "a brave truth-teller" 10,000 experts agreeing on facts = "a global cover-up" This isn’t about truth. It’s about validation. And that’s why they treat scientific outliers like messiahs — even when those same people are ranting about vitamin C curing cancer or aliens seeding life on Earth. -

Crime Man Caught Smuggling Nearly 18 Million Baht in Cash from Myanmar
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A Thai man has been arrested at a border checkpoint in Sangkhla Buri district, Kanchanaburi province, after authorities discovered nearly 18 million baht in undeclared cash inside his vehicle. The man claimed he intended to deposit the money into a bank to settle outstanding payments with a supplier. The arrest took place at the Nam Koek checkpoint in Moo 8, Nong Lu subdistrict, as part of a coordinated effort by police, Border Patrol Police Company 134, district officials and military forces from the Surasi Task Force. The operation was carried out under directives from national police chief Pol. Gen. Kittirat Phanpet and Region 7 Commissioner Pol. Lt. Gen. Naiwat Phadamchit. Officers flagged down a black Toyota Fortuner with Ratchaburi license plates that had just entered Thailand from the Three Pagodas Pass checkpoint. The vehicle was stopped for a routine inspection. The driver, identified as Mr. Thanawat from Ratchaburi province, was found to be carrying two green fabric bags placed on the front passenger seat. Inside, officials discovered bundles of Thai banknotes in various denominations. Upon further examination at Sangkhla Buri Police Station, the contents of the bags were confirmed as follows: • Bag 1: • 1,990 banknotes of 500 baht = 995,000 baht • 8,000 banknotes of 1,000 baht = 8,000,000 baht • Total: 8,995,000 baht • Bag 2: • 2,000 banknotes of 500 baht = 1,000,000 baht • 7,999 banknotes of 1,000 baht = 7,999,000 baht • Total: 8,999,000 baht Combined Total: 17,994,000 baht Mr. Thanawat told officers he operates a cross-border import-export business and that the money was his own. He claimed to have collected it from a warehouse in Payathonzu, Myanmar and transported it by car across the border into Thailand. He intended to deposit the funds at a local bank in Sangkhla Buri to pay off an outstanding debt to a company. He admitted to transporting the money without declaring it to customs authorities, violating customs regulations regarding the import of currency into the Kingdom. As a result, he was charged with illegally bringing Thai currency into the country without going through the required customs procedures. The case is being handled by the Sangkhla Buri Police Station, with legal proceedings now underway. The arrest was carried out under the supervision of senior Kanchanaburi police officials including Pol. Maj. Gen. Apichart Srithongkul and Pol. Col. Santi Pitaksakul, chief of Sangkhla Buri Police.
