Apocamerica Map

Apocamerica Masterlist

Understanding this map: Please note that I’m not a professional map maker and know absolutely nothing about cartography. This is simply a quick visual reference guide for navigating post-apocalypse America.

That being said, this map is subject to change and not wholly accurate or representative of safe/unsafe zones, as they constantly change, and there is yet to be an official database within this alternative universe. Think of this as an approximation. Also, keep in mind that this is 12 years after the initial outbreak, and things did not always look like this, nor will they continue to remain the same. Take this all with a grain of salt.

Zone breakdowns

Red, orange, & gray zones: AVOID AT ALL COSTS! Death is almost guaranteed from radiation and mutant anthrophages alike.

Blue Zone: Republic of Arcadia

Yellow zones: The yellow zones on the map are areas where human settlements still exist, and some communities are even thriving. However, these areas lack military protection and government aid, so they are considered unsafe (however subjective the word “safe” is within the context of this map). Yellow zones are also susceptible to radioactive wastelands but are often unexplored, classifying them as "unknown." Travelers in these areas risk encountering various dangers outside of anthrophages, including mutant animals, extremist groups, wasteland gangs, marauders, raiders, and other unsavory characters. Despite their predicted presence, these groups are not marked on this map as they tend to move around and are hard to keep tally of.

Green zones (power & economy): Areas designated as green zones are not entirely safe from security breaches, nemaxys outbreaks, and gang wars over territory and supply runs. These zones consist mainly of civilians striving to survive and establish a livelihood. As a result of the volatile post-outbreak landscape, the green zones are divided into constantly changing sectors. The few remaining "safe" human settlements are widely dispersed, leading the remaining Governors and congressmen to propose the formation of nation-states to exert better control over their respective areas.

However, the current de facto President, the former Speaker of the House, is determined to maintain control over sector territories and military command. They face the challenge of navigating a fragmented nation while contending with threats from the ROA and other factions attempting to seize power, testing their leadership in their efforts to restore order and unity to the ravaged remains of the US.

Despite the President’s efforts, the power vacuum in the sectors continues to expand as power-hungry politicians spare no effort to secure civilian allegiance. Some congressmen and governors have carved out their own fiefdoms within green and yellow zones, effectively becoming warlords of their respective regions.

Following the outbreak, the Hawaiian islands and Alaska are presumed to be the safest and untouched land masses. Hawaii closed its borders and halted all imports/ exports as soon as the first case of the nemaxys contagion hit the news. Meanwhile, a mass exodus of people left the continental US and headed up to Alaska, and the new capitol was relocated to a small Alaskan fishing town.

After the establishment of the Provisional Emergency Relief Agency (PERA), a federal-level build-back program was implemented in all green zones. The Bureau of Labor & Exports (BOLE) oversaw the program and regulated Chattel Services Inc. (CSI) and the remaining corporate-owned labor forces, which had a significant impact on the reconstruction efforts.

Under stringent government sanctions, an underground illicit black market has flourished, giving rise to new crime families that have ascended to power. These new syndicates replaced the previously dominant players, seizing control of the markets and territories once held by their fallen rivals.

Economic collapse rendered money worthless for a period, but eventually, the monetary system was reinstated, allowing for the revival of commerce through traditional means and ration tickets.

While crime and punishment were primarily addressed at the local level, the aftermath of the chaos led most people to abandon violence once their basic needs were met. Gainful employment provided them with a sense of purpose and belonging in society.

What about travel?

Transportation outside green zones mainly involves using trains, planes, or boats, as navigating on the ground with vehicles through a post-apocalyptic wasteland is considered too risky. However, some people still opt for ground transportation despite being viewed as dangerous and ill-advised compared to other means of travel.

For the third time since December, House Speaker Mike Johnson has failed to wrangle support for reauthorizing a critical US surveillance program, raising questions about the future of a law that compels certain businesses to wiretap foreigners on the government’s behalf.

Johnson lost 19 Republicans on Tuesday in a procedural vote that traditionally falls along party lines. Republicans control the House of Representatives but only by a razor-thin margin. The failed vote comes just hours after former US president Donald Trump ordered Republicans to “Kill FISA” in a 2 am post on Truth Social, referring to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, under which the program is authorized.

The Section 702 surveillance program, which targets foreigners overseas while sweeping up a large amount of US communications as well, is set to sunset on April 19. The program was extended by four months in late December following Johnson’s first failed attempt to hold a vote.

Congressional sources tell WIRED they have no idea what the next steps will be.

The program itself will carry on into the next year, regardless of whether Johnson manages to muster up another vote in the next week. Congress does not directly authorize the surveillance. Instead, it allows the US intelligence services to seek “certifications” from a secret surveillance court on a yearly basis.

The Justice Department applied for new certifications in February. Last week, it announced they’d been approved by the court. The government’s power to issue new directives under the program without Congress’s approval, however, remains in question.

The certifications, which are required only due to the “incidental” collection of US calls, generally permit the program’s use in cases involving terrorism, cybercrime, and weapons proliferation. US intelligence officials have also touted the program as crucial in combating the flood of fentanyl-related substances entering the US from overseas.

The program remains controversial due to a laundry list of abuses committed primarily at the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which maintains a database that holds a portion of the raw data collected under 702.

Although the government says it only “targets” foreigners, it has acknowledged collecting a large amount of US communications in the process. (The actual amount, it says, is impossible to calculate.) Nevertheless, it claims that once those communications are in the government’s possession, it is constitutional for federal agents to review those wiretaps without a warrant.

An unlikely coalition of progressives and conservative lawmakers formed last year in a push to end these warrantless searches, many of the Republicans involved vocal critics of the FBI following its misuse of FISA to target a Trump campaign staffer in 2016. (The 702 program, which is only one part of FISA, was not implicated in that particular controversy.)

Privacy experts have criticized proposed changes to the Section 702 program championed by members of the House Intelligence Committee, as well as Johnson, who had previously voted in favor of a warrant requirement despite now opposing it.

“It seems Congressional leadership needs to be reminded that these privacy protections are overwhelmingly popular,” says Sean Vitka, policy director at Demand Progress, a civil liberties–focused nonprofit. “Surveillance reformers remain willing and able to do that.”

A group of attorneys—among the few to ever present arguments before the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court—said in a statement on Tuesday that an amendment offered up by the Intel committee risked dramatically increasing the number of US businesses forced to cooperate with the program.

Declassified filings released by the FISA court last year revealed that the FBI had misused the 702 program more than 278,000 times, including, as reported by The Washington Post, against “crime victims, January 6 riot suspects, people arrested at protests after the policing killing of George Floyd in 2020 and—in one case—19,000 donors to a congressional candidate.”

James Czerniawaski, a senior policy analyst at Americans for Prosperity, a Washington, DC, think tank pushing for changes to Section 702, says that despite recognizing its value, it remained a “troubled program” in need of “significant and meaningful reforms.”

“The outcome of today was completely avoidable,” he says, “but it requires the Intelligence Community and its allies to recognize that its days of unaccountable and unconditional spying on Americans are over.”

The Biden administration has established the first ever White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention. It's met with approval from anti-violence activists.

Speaking in front of gun violence survivors, activists, and lawmakers, President Joe Biden on Friday announced a new White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, an effort he promised would “centralize, accelerate, and intensify” the federal government’s efforts to combat gun violence. “After every mass shooting, we hear a very simple message ... do something,” Biden said in the White House Rose Garden. “My administration has been working tirelessly to do something,” Biden added, pointing to executive actions his administration had taken on ghost guns and gun trafficking, as well as the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, landmark legislation that became law in 2022. The new office, according to Biden, is one more attempt to answer that call, helping, for example, to “coordinate support for survivors, families, and communities affected by gun violence,” an effort that he said would be similar to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the government’s on-the-ground emergency response team. The office will also seek to identify more executive actions the president can take. Biden noted that he would continue to urge Congress to take legislative action on banning assault weapons and implementing universal background checks. Until then, he said the White House and activists will move forward with or without them.

The establishment of this office is not dependent on Congressional approval. House Republicans are probably too busy trying to shut down the government while seeking new ways to humiliate Speaker McCarthy.

Stefanie Feldman, an aide to President Biden who’s been working on gun safety policy with him for over a decade, will be the director of the new office. In an interview with Vox, she said that the office is meant to implement the laws and policies passed during Biden’s tenure, including the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act and the president’s executive actions on gun violence. [ ... ] Currently, multiple government agencies are involved in efforts to reduce gun violence, including the Department of Justice, which gives grants to communities working to prevent gun violence; the Department of Health and Human Services, which funds research studying gun violence as a health epidemic; the FBI, which runs criminal background checks; and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, which enforces national gun laws and regulates firearms sales. The White House, its gun reform allies in Congress, and advocates have been coordinating with one another for years. This office puts all of those efforts under one roof, with a dedicated leadership team inside the executive branch.

David Hogg, a Parkland shooting survivor and co-founder of March For Our Lives, has been calling for such an office.

LETTERS FROM AN AMERICAN

Members of the House of Representatives returned to work today after their summer break. They came back to a fierce fight over funding the government before the September 30 deadline, with only 12 days of legislative work on the calendar. That fight is also tangled up with Republican extremists’ demands to impeach President Joe Biden—although even members of their own caucus admit there are no grounds for such an impeachment—and threats to the continued position of Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) as speaker of the House.

It’s an omnishambles, a word coined in 2009 by the writers of the BBC political satire The Thick of It, meaning “a situation, especially in politics, in which poor judgment results in disorder or chaos with potentially disastrous consequences.” 

It fits. 

In August, the Senate Appropriations Committee passed 12 spending bills covering discretionary funding—about 27% of the budget—by bipartisan votes, within limits set as part of the deal Speaker McCarthy made with President Biden to prevent the U.S. defaulting for the first time in history. 

But the House left for summer break without being able to pass more than one of the 12 necessary bills. The extremists in the House Freedom Caucus oppose the spending levels Biden and McCarthy negotiated, insisting they amount to “socialism,” although with the exception of the Covid-19 blip, discretionary federal spending has stayed level at about 20% of the nation’s gross domestic product since 1954. 

The Republican-dominated House Appropriations Committee has reneged on the deal McCarthy struck, producing bills that impose cuts far beyond those McCarthy agreed to. In particular, it cut Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) funding for programs to address climate change and the Internal Revenue Service, which has been badly underfunded since at least 2010, leaving wealthy tax cheats unaudited. The cuts are ideological: the bills have cut funding for food assistance programs for pregnant mothers and children, grants to school districts serving impoverished communities, the Environmental Protection Agency, agencies that protect workers’ rights, federal agencies’ civil rights offices, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the IRS (on top of clawing back funding in the IRA), and so on.

Although appropriations bills are generally kept clean, the extremists have loaded the must-pass bills with demands unrelated to the bill itself. They have put measures restricting abortion and gender-affirming care in at least 8 of the 12 bills. Even if such measures could make it through the Democrat-dominated Senate—and they can’t—President Biden has vowed to veto them. 

Even fellow Republicans are balking at the attempt of the extremists to get their ideological wish list by holding the government hostage. Representative Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut, the top Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee, told reporters she doesn’t see how the Republicans are going to get the bills out of the committee, let alone pass them. “Overall, I think it's going to be very, very hard to get these bills forward,” she said.

Far from negotiating with McCarthy over the break, Freedom Caucus members appear to be increasing their demands as a shutdown looms. In August, the caucus announced it would not support even a short-term funding bill unless it also included their own demands for border policy, an end to what they call “woke” policies in the Department of Defense, and what they call the “unprecedented weaponization” of the Justice Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. They also oppose funding for Ukraine to enable it to fight off Russia’s invasion.

They have hinted they will use procedural votes to prevent any large spending bill from getting to the floor at all. One of the tools at their disposal is a challenge to McCarthy’s leadership, which thanks to the deal he struck to get the speakership in the first place, a single member can bring. Today, Florida representative Matt Gaetz threatened to “lead the resistance” if McCarthy worked with Democrats to fund the government. 

They have offered McCarthy a way to avoid that showdown: impeach President Joe Biden, although there is no evidence the president has committed any “high crimes and misdemeanors” required for an impeachment. 

Today, McCarthy availed himself of that escape clause. On the first day back from a 45-day August break, rather than tackling the budget crises, he endorsed an impeachment inquiry into President Biden. 

This is a fascinating moment, as the Republicans have opened an impeachment inquiry into Biden with no evidence of wrongdoing. For all their breathless statements before the TV cameras, they have not managed to produce any evidence. Trump's own Department of Justice opened an investigation into Biden four years ago and found nothing to charge. As Josh Marshall of Talking Points Memo notes, Biden’s taxes are public, and a U.S. attorney has been scrutinizing Biden’s son Hunter for years; red flags should have been apparent long ago, if there were any.

Just yesterday, Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) tore apart the talking points far-right Republicans have been using to smear the president. He noted that none of the bank records Representative James Comer (R-KY) has referenced show any payments to President Biden, none of the suspicious activity reports the Oversight Committee has reviewed suggest any potential misconduct by Biden, none of the witness accounts to the Oversight Committee show any wrongdoing by Biden, Hunter Biden’s former business associates explicitly stated they had no reason to think President Biden was involved in his son’s business ventures, and so on. 

This inquiry is not actually about wrongdoing; it is a reiteration of the same plan Trump tried to execute in 2019 when he asked Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky to smear Biden before the 2020 presidential election. By launching an inquiry, Republicans can count on their false accusations spreading through the media, tainting their opponents even without evidence of wrongdoing. See, for example, Clinton, Hillary: emails. 

McCarthy insisted to reporters that an impeachment inquiry would simply give House committees leverage to subpoena officials from the White House, but during the Trump administration, the Department of Justice issued an opinion that the House must take a formal vote to validate an impeachment inquiry. It did so in reaction to then–House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s launch of an impeachment inquiry without such a vote, and the decision invalidated subpoenas issued as part of that inquiry. Pelosi went on to hold a vote and to launch an official inquiry.

It will not be so easy for McCarthy. He has not wanted to hold a vote because outside of the Freedom Caucus, even Republicans don’t want to launch an impeachment inquiry when there is no evidence for one. Senate Republicans today were quick to tell reporters they were skeptical that McCarthy could get enough votes in the House for an article of impeachment, and they were clear that a Senate trial was not an option. Representative Ken Buck (R-CO), himself a member of the Freedom Caucus, said: “The time for impeachment is the time when there’s evidence linking President Biden—if there’s evidence linking President Biden to a high crime or misdemeanor. That doesn’t exist right now.” 

The attack on Biden is a transparent attempt to defend former president Trump from his own legal troubles by suggesting that Biden is just as bad. Russia’s president Vladimir Putin today also defended Trump, saying that his prosecutions show that the United States is fundamentally corrupt. His comment made former representative Liz Cheney (R-WY) seem to wash her hands of the modern incarnation of her political party. “Putin has now officially endorsed the Putin-wing of the Republican Party,” she wrote. “Putin Republicans & their enablers will end up on the ash heap of history. Patriotic Americans in both parties who believe in the values of liberal democracy will make sure of it.”

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) summed up the day: “So let me get this straight: Republicans are threatening to remove their own Speaker, impeach the President, and shut down the government on September 30th—disrupting everyday people’s paychecks and general public operations. For what? I don’t think even they know.”

The center-right think tank American Action Forum’s vice president for economic policy, Gordon Gray, had an answer. Ever since the debt ceiling fight was resolved, he told Joan E. Greve of The Guardian, “there’s a big chunk of House Republicans who just want to break something. That’s just how some of these folks define governing. It’s how their constituents define success.”

2024 Workplace Safety Concerns: How Are Employers Responding

Workplace violence is the act or threat of violence. It ranges from verbal abuse to physical assaults directed toward people at work or on duty. Violence can occur in any workplace and among any type of worker.  

Workplace Safety is a cornerstone of any healthy work environment. However, there’s a darker side that often goes unnoticed: workplace violence. Every year, thousands of American workers report having been victims of workplace violence. In 2021-22, assaults resulted in 57,610 injuries. In 2022, 525 fatalities due to assault were reported, according to Injury Facts. Workplace Safety is a cornerstone of any healthy work environment. However, there’s a darker side that often goes unnoticed: workplace violence.

Joining this class will lead you an understanding of preventive measures you can take to avoid workplace violence. The speaker will offer insights on employee assistance program, zero-tolerance policy etc. that will help you to minimize such risks.   

The impact of workplace violence can range from psychological issues to physical injury, or even death. The risk for fatal violence is greater for workers in sales, protective services, and transportation. The risk for nonfatal violence resulting in days away from work is greatest for healthcare and social assistance workers.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) plays a crucial role in ensuring workplace safety.  Apart from all the above mention topics she will touch on the key aspects of the class which is of course OSHA’s guidelines for workplace safety.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 20,050 workers in the private industry experienced trauma from nonfatal workplace violence in 2020. These incidents required days away from work. Of those victims who experienced trauma from workplace violence:

73% were female

62% were aged 25-54

76% worked in the healthcare and social assistance industry

22% required 31 or more days away from work to recover

22% involved 3-5 days away from work

Over the past few years, workplace violence has been on the rise, particularly in specific industries such as healthcare and social assistance. Healthcare workers are at a significantly higher risk of experiencing workplace violence, with incidents occurring at a rate four times higher than in the private sector (OSHA, 2015). The shift toward remote work, economic instability, and political polarization have contributed to increased tensions and conflicts within organizations (Lipscomb & London, 2015). For instance, data from the FBI shows that workplace active shooter incidents have increased by more than 150% between 2006 and 2018 (FBI, 2019).

Session Highlights:

The workplace violence in a federal, state and local level

The way OSHA is involved in mandating protections for employees

Policy and training will provide employers with valid steps in mitigating workplace violence

How states have already developed, mandated workplace violence efforts

The role of the Employer in protecting employees and providing safety in the workplace

The elements of a safe workplace against violence initiated by Employers

Employers should identify employees with volatile tendencies and aggressive behaviour’s.

How an effective Employee Assistance Program (EAP) can help employees manage mental health issues as a result of violence in the workplace

Penalties and fines placed on the Employer and/or the employee who is part of workplace violence incident

How Managers who don’t follow safety guidelines can be at risk of criminal sanctions due to Vicarious Liability

Why You Should Attend:

Employee training and creating an emergency action plan

Conducting mock training exercises with local law enforcement

Adopting a zero-tolerance policy toward workplace violence

Who Should Attend:

All Employers

Business Owners

Company Leadership

Compliance professionals

Six-Doors/六扇门, Communist China's National Security Bureau and its Covert Agents

What's Six-Doors/六扇门?

In China's history, the term Six-Doors/六扇门 was used to refer to the ancient judicial system, but it's now a code-name for the National Security Bureau, Police, military or special force and agents of the Communist China.

and

Beside the covert agent criminal activities revealed by the United States Department of Justice(USDJ), to the USDJ's excellent work I applaud with respect, the CCP's covert agents have been doing things even more immoral or even evil that have not yet received enough attention. The reason I feel necessary to share my discovery on this is that the pattern is also reflected in the CCP's global strategies and moves, in my opinion.

An article published in 2014 by the Digest of Overseas Chinese Democracy Movement/海外中国民主运动文摘 started with a new policy of the National Security Bureau of the Communist China: the CCP spends tens of millions RMB per year to direct their infiltrated covert agents to create or provoke conflicts, premeditate chaos among the pro-democracy activists/organizations, by observing and collecting information of each individual and association during the chaos, they will find out their weaknesses, apply coercion strategy on them and file report to the CCP for credit and more fund.

"https://cdp8964.blogspot.com/"

Due to the greed nature shared by most of the CCP's covert agents, competing for more fund or more power, they fight each other in the same manner which gives me an opportunity to observe them on social media like TwitterX. The senior covert agents of Six-Doors/六扇门 enjoy watching his/her lackeys biting and fighting each other and apply the survival of the fittest jungle rule on them. According to many CCP insiders, a golden rule shared by many officials of the CCP system is to let the subordinates fighting each other, longer the subordinates fight, safer the boss position is.

Based on my observation and the information revealed by himself and his own circle, @Treenewbee2019/@huluwa2024, hereinafter referred to as KBD, is in a higher position of the Six-Doors/六扇门.

He repeatedly claimed that his working place was "中山北一路803号" which is the address of the Criminal Investigation Squad of Shanghai Public Security Bureau.

Sun Chunlan/孙春兰, former vice Premier and head of the United Front Work Department of the CCP, was his boss.

KBD also said the "legitimate identity" of his leader now is a shareholder of the business: Foody World/丰泰 in Vancouver of Canada. In the Chinese language, using the term "legitimate identity/" implies that there is a secret identity and we all know that a covert agent has double or multiple identities.

Read another report to know more about KBD's covert-agent-like activities:

Tip of the Iceberg-Illegal Foreign Agent Activities in the West

Many pro-CCP Twitter accounts called KBD "leader" or "big guy", etc.

KBD's leadership is also reflected in the fact that despite the hostile groups formed among his lackeys who block each other, KBD managed to stay "friendly" and connected with almost all of them, make his voice heard in their Twitter Spaces and manipulate them to open Twitter Spaces one by one, dominate the discursive power of twitter spaces and ensure that the topics and the person who has the speaker power were under his control. In China's system, such privilege belongs to the superiors only.

Speaking of the CCP's Transnational Repression/Policing, in a singing/music Twitter Space yesterday, when a pro-democracy activist mentioned a music issue in the pro-democracy movement, a person jumped up and accused the host of allowing an anti-CCP voice in his Space. The host brought then the topic back to the music and all others remained in silence. The same chilly effect as in the Communist China but it was on TwitterX. Note that the host is in Los-Angeles and most of the audience are oversea Chinese people. Again, the CCP has literally extended its "No-Critique against the CCP/不可妄议中央" and no-freedom speech ruling to the US and TwitterX.

Contrast to the lackeys' kowtow to KBD, what KBD did to them is beyond any decent man's conception of evil.

The way for the superiors in the higher ranking of the Six-Doors/六扇门 to control and manipulate their subordinates/lackeys and to safeguard their power is

use their power of allocating fund to buy lackeys;

to better safeguard their power, preventing overturning coup by the lackeys, the superiors usually PUA(gaslighting in the most psychological torturing way) the lackeys on daily basis. To put it simple: after cursing and slapping the lackeys, the superior will give them a candy, so on so for, day after day;

If some one questions the extremely perverted gaslighting and enslaving behaviors, their defense is that "they are playing game for fun, to see who can survive under tremendous psychological pressure."

one thing that the covert agents of the Six-Doors/六扇门 often use to threaten oversea Chinese people is to label them as anti-CCP and report to the CCP, threatening them with "get vanished" if the target lands in China. The Six-Doors/六扇门 lackeys face the same threat as well. Why? Like the Six-Doors/六扇门 members are intriguing for their gains on TwitterX, the CCP's inner fight is raging and even a covert agent of the CCP can't be sure if his boss can still be in the office tomorrow. The CCP's inner faction war is also about life or death, just like Qin Gang/秦刚, the vanished former Minister of Foreign Affairs of China.

Knowing the conflicts among the pro-CCP groups on TwitterX, actually most of them are his own lackeys who call him "leader", "big master/大法师", KBD's motto are "pass a knife to both sides (hostile groups)"

and

"Wherever there is a flame, we're gonna add some firewood or fuel it."

His motto fits perfectly the CCP's guideline for the covert agents mentioned at the beginning: "constantly creating problems, fighting, and making chaos".

"https://cdp8964.blogspot.com/"

the Six-Doors/六扇门's targets are not limited to the pro-democracy activists, organizations or oversea Chinese people, but also the western countries' domestic politics and society. It's good to read analytical reports about the CCP's fifty-cents cyber-warriors impersonated as "Trump supporters" or "Harris supporters". Despite their camouflage, their mission is to divide the American society and fuel the conflicts among the political parties, voters and ethnic groups.

"https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/02/16/x-meta-china-disinformation/"

"https://www.asiafinancial.com/fake-chinese-accounts-flourish-on-x-analysis-shows-wapo"

The biggest concern is that in the international disputes and wars that have broken in the past few years, like Russian invasion of Ukraine, Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, and the Red Sea Crisis, etc., I see the same pattern as I discovered in the Six-Door/六扇门 circle: exploiting conflict/problem and fuel it. In those international disputes/wars, the CCP stands always with the opposite of the western allies, what "co-incidence"?

Who’s Behind the Hamas Attack?

CCP, Russia and Elon Musk: World Totalitarian Alliance in Construction?

Isn’t the CCP Warmonger? Timeline after 2019 Hong Kong Protests

Whether the CCP has been exporting proxy wars and testing the West's determination to defend the Democracy? It's hard to prove either side but one thing I can say with no doubt is that the Six-Doors/六扇门 guys will make sure that any thing they plotted looks like having nothing to do with them and their hands are clean, and yet, thanks to many sloppy guys in the Six-Doors/六扇门 like KBD, they left enough traces to help us to find the truth.

Some readers may find hard to understand or believe what I presented in this blog. The blog will be updated and a video will be prepared for further details. if you have any questions, please feel free to comment to my tweet post:

"https://twitter.com/expose_ccp2023V/status/1842764954807447720"

I have made many "too earlier alarms" that people didn't believe at the moment but realized when it became too late. The evil of the behaviors of KBD and his lackeys, as well as the cited policy of China's National Security Bureau are beyond the tolerance of the western values, in my opinion and their covert agent activities are difficult to detect. Earlier waking up and action, better.

Thank you for your attention and sharing.

Leadership Keynote Speakers And Their Myths

When selecting celebrity guest speakers during your celebration, it is vital to select someone that coincides with the purpose of the event as well as the crowd. The right speaker can energize and inspire the attendees, making an unforgettable impression. Famous keynote speakers add particular opulence to the stage however it's imperative to ensure that their message is resonant with the audience. In the event that you're looking to hire celebrity motivational speakers or technology speakers, the speaker's message must reflect the event's purpose and establish a rapport that encourages people to take action. The process of selecting a speaker involves evaluating the relevance of the speaker's message, their expertise and the ability to connect. One of the most crucial elements to take into consideration is the speaker's capability to motivate. Motivational speakers are not just chosen because of their fame, but because of their ability to bring about motivation. Are you hunting for leadership speakers? Go to the earlier discussed site.

They are often able to share personal stories of the value of perseverance, challenges, as well as successes, resulting in a powerful emotional impact. No matter if they're the motivational keynote speaker or celebrity speakers, their narratives must resonate with their audience at the personal scale. When it comes to corporate events, picking an inspiring speaker that can integrate motivational messages into the context of industry or business is highly beneficial. Technology events are growing in the spotlight, and with them the need for motivational technology speakers has risen. As technology continues to advance that means having a technology keynote speaker who are able to translate complex concepts into useful insights is essential. They are not just motivational to inspire, they provide solutions as well as ways to integrate technology into everyday operations or daily life. If your event is focused on the digital revolution or innovation, selecting the right well-known motivational celebrity with a background in tech will ensure your guests are enticed in embracing and adapting to technological advancements. When it comes to events that solve social issues or encourage inclusion including diversity and inclusion, speakers can play an important role.

The keynote speakers from diversity bring to light their importance in establishing an environment that is inclusive in business, politics, and society. Their speeches usually revolve around the elimination of barriers and fostering environments where everyone can succeed, regardless of their background. When choosing such diversity speakers, it's important to consider the purpose of your event.

United States lawmakers are receiving a flood of warnings from across civil society not to be bend to the efforts by some members of Congress to derail a highly sought debate over the future of a powerful but polarizing US surveillance program.

House and Senate party leaders are preparing to unveil legislation on Wednesday directing the spending priorities of the US military and its $831 billion budget next year. Rumors, meanwhile, have been circulating on Capitol Hill about plans reportedly hatched by House speaker Mike Johnson to amend the bill in an effort to extend Section 702, a sweeping surveillance program drawing fire from a large contingent of Democratic and Republican lawmakers favoring privacy reforms.

WIRED first reported on the rumors on Monday, citing senior congressional aides familiar with ongoing negotiations over the bill, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), separate versions of which were passed by the House and Senate this summer.

More than 80 civil rights and grassroots organizations—including Asian Americans Advancing Justice | AAJC, Color of Change, Muslims for Just Futures, Stop AAPI Hate, and United We Dream—signed a statement this morning opposing “any efforts” to extend the 702 program using the NDAA. The statement, expected to hit the inboxes of all 535 members of Congress this afternoon, says that failure to reform contentious aspects of the program, such as federal agents’ ability to access Americans’ communications without a warrant, poses an “alarming threat to civil rights,” and that any attempt to use must-pass legislation to extend the program would “sell out the communities that have been most often wrongfully targeted by these agencies and warrantless spying powers generally.”

“As you’re aware, this extremely controversial warrantless surveillance authority is set to expire at the end of the year, but will continue to operate as it does currently until April, as government officials have recognized for many years,” the groups say.

Johnson and Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer did not respond to WIRED’s request for comment. Leadership of the House and Senate armed services committees likewise did not respond.

Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act authorizes the US government, namely, the US National Security Agency, to surveil the communications of foreign citizens believed to be overseas. Oftentimes, these communications—texts, calls, emails, and other web traffic—“incidentally” involve Americans, whom the government is forbidden from directly targeting. But certain methods of interception, those that tap directly into the internet’s backbone, may make it impossible to fully disentangle foreign communications from domestic ones.

Though a probable-cause warrant is usually required before US law enforcement can obtain the content of an American’s calls, the courts view Section 702 surveillance—accomplished with the compelled assistance of US telecoms—as a two-step process, applying constitutional safeguards to each step individually. The collection, or seizure, only “targets” foreigners and is thus legal. Once communications are in the government's possession, however, federal agents are free to query, or search, them under procedures approved by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, an 11-judge panel whose proceedings are classified and deliberated ex parte. These procedures are ostensibly designed to “minimize” the program’s impact on Americans' rights.

The “incidental,” or collateral, collection of Americans' communications is intensely controversial, due in part to procedures—namely those of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)—that allow federal agents to conduct warrantless, after-the-fact queries of Section 702 data for investigations of a purely domestic nature.

The conservative and libertarian nonprofit FreedomWorks, which has supported privacy reforms in an array of surveillance debates at the federal, state, and local levels, said Tuesday that it intends to issue a “key vote” against the NDAA in the event a Section 702 amendment is included in the bill. Key votes are a FreedomWorks scoring tool that track controversial votes by conservative lawmakers—effectively, a bad mark that may be used against them in future elections. The American Civil Liberties Union says likewise that it intends to score the vote using its own similar process, which tags progressives with votes the group deems at odds with the Bill of Rights.

“To use the NDAA to reauthorize a mass spying program that has been so flagrantly abused without going through the full legislative process and robust debate betrays the public’s trust,” says Kia Hamadanchy, senior policy counsel at the ACLU. Added FreedomWorks president Adam Brandon: “This is the time for robust debate over these issues, not maneuvers by congressional leadership to undermine Americans’ privacy. FISA reauthorization should not be in the NDAA—period.”

A single, uniform bill approved by both chambers is needed before the NDAA can be sent to the president for his signature. A conference of dozens of lawmakers, drawn in large part from the armed services committees, is expected to receive a copy of the bill on Wednesday—their first opportunity to review the consolidated text—and will have until the close of business to approve the language.

From there, the NDAA is subjected to different sets of rules for each chamber. In the Senate, it will either be ushered directly to the floor for a vote or may require three-fifths of the body to formally end debate on the NDAA. In the House, the bill may be subjected to a “rule” issued by the House Rules Committee, which is typically designed to promote the goals of party leaders, waiving points of order or limiting floor debate. The bill may also be considered “under suspension,” however, which is an expedited process that prohibits floor amendments and requires a two-thirds majority.

Senior Democratic and Republican sources say the House is expected to bypass the Rules Committee, meaning there will be no opportunity to strike down any amendments that could extend the 702 program—which is itself not typically included as part of the NDAA.

A senior Republican aide tells WIRED the odds of Johnson proceeding with a plan to extend the 702 program using the NDAA have grown slim over the past few days, as it’s become increasingly clear the speaker would face significant backlash from rank-and-file members of his own party, as well as more powerful figures such as Jim Jordan, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and Matt Gaetz, one of a handful of lawmakers to whom Johnson effectively owes his new position.

A senior aide to Jordan tells WIRED that the chairman would not support extending the Section 702 program without significant reforms—in particular, a ban against the FBI accessing 702 data on Americans without a warrant.

The House and Senate intelligence committees on Tuesday introduced their own legislation to reauthorize the 702 program through 2035, banning FBI queries in criminal cases that fall outside the broadly defined “foreign intelligence” umbrella. A high-ranking source familiar with the White House’s views on the 702 program told WIRED on Monday that the White House was open to supporting this reform. Civil liberties groups, however, say requiring the FBI to obtain warrants for purely criminal matters does not go far enough, and would not impact a majority of cases in which 702 data is accessed.

What’s more, the argument goes, in matters of national security, the FBI should already be well prepared to show probable cause in court.
