CDC Awards Pfizer $1.24 Billion for COVID Vaccines for Kids and Adults
June 16th, 2026So it goes…
Via: The Defender:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) recent decision to award Pfizer $1.24 billion for COVID-19 vaccines has renewed debate over the government’s continued investment in mRNA technology.
The contracts, awarded on June 1, include about $735.7 million for pediatric COVID-19 vaccines and nearly $505.3 million for adult doses for fiscal year 2026-2027.

Feds Reveal Details of Alleged Plot to Attack White House UFC Event with Explosive Drones
June 16th, 2026After reading the criminal complaint against Tycen Proper, my guess is that the entire operation was run as a PSYOP by the U.S. Government.
When the complaint says that Proper, “Met random people online,” to plan this alleged attack, it’s safe to assume that some number of those “random people” were FBI agents seeking useful idiots to stand up this totally absurd kabuki theater.
Conveniently and coincidentally, the plotters were Christians, concerned with AI data centers, the handling of the Epstein files and Israeli influence of U.S. politics.
Yes, really.
I have no idea if any attack was actually meant to be carried out, or not. It might be the case that simply hanging the desired narrative on this group of dunces was sufficient.
According to the criminal complaint, Tycen Proper’s mother called local law enforcement, “Due to his recent conduct, including firearms purchases and communicating with certain individuals online.”
However, I would put the chances that the Feds were not only aware of this group, but running it, at approximately 100%.

The FBI said Tuesday that it disrupted an attempt to attack Sunday’s UFC America 250 event at the White House. Court records detail an alleged plot to use small drones carrying explosives and then snipers to target senior government officials and wealthy attendees.
A law enforcement source told CBS News that five people are in custody so far. At least one suspect, 19-year-old Tycen Proper, was arrested in the Southern District of Ohio on Monday and faces four charges, including attempted murder of a federal officer and conspiracy to commit an offense against the U.S., according to court filings.
He has been ordered to remain in custody pending a detention hearing Wednesday, according to court records.
Proper was interviewed by federal investigators on Thursday and admitted to planning, with others, a coordinated attack against the U.S. government during the UFC fight on Sunday, according to an affidavit submitted by an FBI agent.
The White House hosted the event on Sunday — President Trump’s 80th birthday — as part of the celebrations of the nation’s 250th anniversary. Thousands turned out to watch the fights on the White House South Lawn, where Mr. Trump sat in the front row.
Copper Drug Restores Memory and Clears Toxic Alzheimer’s Proteins
June 15th, 2026Via: Monash University:
Monash University researchers have found in laboratory experiments that a drug which delivers copper to the brain significantly reduces toxic Alzheimer’s proteins and improves long-term spatial memory.
The study, published today in the journal ACS Chemical Neuroscience, shows the compound Cu(ATSM) repairs a vital waste-clearing pump at the blood-brain barrier – unlocking a potential new avenue of therapeutics targeting neurovascular dysfunction, caused by one of the world’s leading causes of death.
Alzheimer’s is driven by the buildup of toxic proteins called amyloid-beta. Normally, the brain flushes these out into the bloodstream through the blood-brain barrier. In Alzheimer’s, the pumps doing the heavy lifting, called P-glycoprotein (P-gp), weaken significantly, clogging the drain and trapping the toxic proteins in the brain.
Lead author Dr Jae Pyun, from the Drug Delivery, Disposition and Dynamics theme at Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences (MIPS), whose work on the study marked the final part of his PhD project, said the treatment successfully engages the brain’s blood vessels to lower toxic protein levels, which results in behavioural benefits.
“This is the first study to show that Cu(ATSM) can increase the abundance of P-gp clearance pumps in an Alzheimer’s model, by 24.1 per cent, effectively linking the repair of the blood-brain barrier to a reduction in toxic proteins and improved cognitive function,” Dr Pyun said.
“By improving the pumps, the brain can finally clear out the trapped waste. Over 56 days, the treatment reduced toxic amyloid-beta by 42 per cent and improved spatial learning by nearly 44 per cent.”
Richard Dolan on Latest U.S. Government Limited Hangout UFO Information Release
June 13th, 2026Someone asked if I’d lost interest in UFOs because I didn’t seem to be posting much about it.
I’m still interested in the topic and follow news closely, but what I’m not interested in is the absurd limited hangout wrapper that the U.S. Government is placing around the topic.
Read books like, Incident at Devils Den: A True Story by Terry Lovelace or, The THREAT: Revealing the Secret Alien Agenda by David M. Jacobs.
I’ve also personally witnessed the phenomenon. It’s not important at all that you believe me or not. The point is that it’s a waste of time for me to read whatever the U.S. Government is willing to admit in these official releases. Accounts of lights-in-the-sky type stuff. haha I’ve been WAAAAAY beyond that point since the mid 1980s.
Richard Dolan is willing to treat the government releases seriously, if that’s where you are in your journey on this topic.

Cryptocurrency Miners Go Back to GPUs… for AI
June 13th, 2026AI companies buy up nearly all the GPUs, RAM and SSDs: Check
Crypto miners turn to renting rigs for AI, buying up what remains of “consumer” grade equipment: Check
People who mostly hate AI, and try to avoid it, pay a lot more for a lot less when trying to purchase a computer: Check
Six months ago, a client asked me if a Lenovo laptop was a good deal (AMD/32GB/1TB/5060/OLED). I told her that it was a remarkably good deal and that the same system would cost probably NZ$1000 more within a few months. She bought two of them.
She called me last week saying she needed another one of those laptops. The same exact machine was on sale again… for NZ$960 more than what she previously paid.
I didn’t post this video earlier because it’s extremely long, but the point here is that ability of regular people to build and own powerful computers is slipping away. If you go shopping for a relatively powerful computer and wonder what happened to prices, you’re being forced to participate in a bum fight for the scraps the AI companies left behind:
This doesn’t just refer to computers that are capable of being used for audio and video production, streaming, gaming, design, animation, etc.
There’s another reason why powerful equipment is now so unaffordable…
I think the goal is to lock individuals and companies in to paying high monthly fees for AI services by making it mostly impossible to be able to build out AI systems that run locally and privately for a fraction of the cost of what the big AI companies are charging.
I was thinking about trying Claude for a project and I was met with a prompt to enter my mobile phone number. Not optional.
Of course.
*groan*
So, to sum up the options for using powerful AI right now:
* Submit to total surveillance and high monthly fees for access to a state of the art model—which isn’t sustainable at all and will eventually go away, which is why I wanted to try it before it’s over/unattainable.
* Be prepared to shell out the cost of a nice used car to build your own rig that wouldn’t be as good as top offerings, but might be good enough for you. Maybe you care more about privacy than top performance…
* Pay fees to rent someone else’s rig, like in the video below.
I guess there’s another option: Wait until the bubble bursts and then drive forklifts to defunct data centers to harvest tons of GB300s for pennies on the dollar? 🙂
As always, happy computing!

U.S. GOVERNMENT FORCES ANTHROPIC DISABLE FABLE 5 AND MYTHOS 5 CITING NATIONAL SECURITY
June 13th, 2026Update: Amazon Tipped U.S. Government on Jailbreak
Via: Matthew Berman:
—
Ahh, ye olde oh shit moment?
Or, does this have more to do with the friction between Anthropic and the U.S. Government?
Anthropic has said it will not back down in a fight with the US Department of Defense (DoD) over how its artificial intelligence (AI) technology is used.
The firm’s chief executive Dario Amodei said on Thursday that his company would rather not work with the Pentagon than agree to uses of its tech that may “undermine, rather than defend, democratic values.”
His comments come two days after a meeting with US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth over demands that Anthropic accept “any lawful use” of its tools. It ended with a threat to remove Anthropic from the DoD’s supply chain.
“These threats do not change our position: we cannot in good conscience accede to their request,” Amodei said.
At issue for Anthropic is the potential use of its AI tools like Claude for two purposes: “Mass domestic surveillance” and “Fully autonomous weapons.”
Amodei said “such use cases have never been included in our contracts with the Department of War, and we believe they should not be included now.”
In any event, I wonder if people had enough time to run knowledge distillation operations against Fable 5 and Mythos 5 before access was cut off?
Via: Anthropic:
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Anthropic models will not be affected.
Japan: Drug May Allow People to Grow New Teeth
June 13th, 2026Via: Popular Mechanics:
Japanese researchers have moved forward with an experimental drug that promises to regrow human teeth. Human trials began in September 2024.
…
This study focuses on 30 males between the ages of 30 and 64—each missing at least one tooth. The drug will be administered intravenously to prove its effectiveness and safety, and luckily, no side effects have been reported in previous animal studies.
If all goes well, Kitano Hospital will administer the treatment to patients between the ages of 2 to 7 who are missing at least four teeth, with the end goal of having a tooth-regrowing medicine available by the year 2030. While these treatments are currently focused on patients with congenital tooth deficiency, Takahashi hopes the treatment will be available for anyone who’s lost a tooth.
Gabbard Reveals Information on U.S. Funded Biolabs

Malone on U.S. Government (DoD Defense Threat Reduction Agency) Funded “Biolabs” in Ukraine
Defense Department Records Reveal U.S. Funding of Anthrax Laboratory Activities in Ukraine
Via: Office of the Director of National Intelligence:
After months of searching through Intelligence Community holdings and files, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard is revealing new evidence of longstanding United States government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries. These biolabs include labs in Ukraine, which may be at risk of compromise due to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. For example, the Intelligence Community previously warned that a US-funded biolab in Ukraine likely housed dangerous pathogens and remained vulnerable to longstanding threats of Russian attack, seizure, or damage.
The newly declassified evidence can be found HERE.
Until now, evidence regarding the full existence and funding of these laboratories had been knowingly withheld from the American people. The information surrounding the existence, history, locations and funding of these US funded biolabs has been intentionally covered up by powerful people falsely, claiming that they do not exist and accusing anyone who says otherwise to be foreign assets and traitors to America.
Many of these U.S. government-funded biolabs are currently or have previously engaged in research using hazardous and highly contagious pathogens, in some cases to include dangerous Gain-of-Function research, with very little visibility or oversight.
President Trump understands the serious threat dangerous Gain-of-Function research poses to the American people, which is why he took decisive action on May 25, 2025, signing EO 14292 to end federal funding of Gain-of-Function research around the world.
“Despite the obvious potential for catastrophic global impact research on dangerous pathogens in biolabs can have, politicians, so-called health professionals like Dr. Fauci, and entities within the Biden administration’s national security team lied to the American people about the existence of U.S.-funded and supported biolabs, and threatened those who attempted to expose the truth. ODNI will continue to work closely with partners across the government to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain to end dangerous Gain-of-Function research that threatens the health and wellbeing of the American people and people around the world,” said DNI Gabbard.
DNI Gabbard issued new guidance to the Intelligence Community directing increased collection on these laboratories and facilities overseas. This directive is already providing new details on clinical trials that are underway at these facilities, raising significant ethical, financial, and security concerns regarding these supposed public health initiatives and U.S. national security.
And Now… U.S. Law Enforcement Warns of ‘Anti-Tech Extremism’ as AI Hatred Grows
