## Resource

I discuss the societal landscape of the ‘ChudTheBuilder’ case and what it exposes; I discus the new discussions of fraud and whether or not politicians can be trusted to do the right thing; along with the surveillance state growing around us; also more K12 abuse, and this week’s CIA COVID whistleblower and the excuses that are being made by politicians.
