According to internal documents reviewed by Vice, the Department of Homeland Security in 2018 sought to develop a method for assigning “risk scores” to social media users, in a program to identify “disinformation” efforts named “Night Fury” by the DHS.

The DHS worked with the University of Alabama to develop the “Night Fury” system, the concept of which bears a striking resemblance to the Chinese “social credit” scores assigned to citizens to measure their compliance with the regime.

It’s not a big deal to create things that use creative techniques that nobody will be able to crack.

They have already done it—and will lie about it over and over and over and over again....and accuse their accusers of “disinformation” and “hate”.

That is how the game is played.

“YUGE gulags”

Future vaxxes will get the job done—follow you on your cell phone while you go to get your vaxx—replace the nurse with their own nurse—and bye bye “enemy of the state”.

Exactly. They did it and continue to track everything we do. Because they can.

Methinks they are already doing it, just not letting the folks know.

Phone us usully off and goggle locations off but.....well we know. And so do they. Ever wonder why so many “homeless” refuse to “enter” the system? Maybe thats the last holdout of freedom.

I do love well constructed and nicely written commentary.

Winston Churchill was one of the finest observers and philosophers of the 29th century.

(He was a talented painter as well.)

Government agencies never ask for anything they haven’t already taken.

Homeland and the corrupt FBI are competing for ‘most like Stasi secret police organization’ in the country.,

I suspect Homeland has more thugs and goons than the FBI and eventually will win the ‘honor’: being the creepiest Stasi like organization in the world...(yes, not just the country...)

The Deep State could care less who is President.

Their view—Presidents come and go—and have no “need to know”.

This got out of control under Eisenhower—his “military industrial complex” speech was a plea—and a confession.

The horse had left the barn.

That is a fact.

Many people in the bureaucracy quite clearly say “we don’t work for The Legislative branch” and do whatever they feel like. It has to end up in court to get them to stop, and even then...maybe they don’t.

It’s a criminal government that plays close to the edge.

That's not how a social credit system works.

The world you're not allowed into anymore leaves you in a gulag.
