MAR-A-LAGO KILLZONE, GERMANY HEARTS CP, DECENTRALIZED TIKTOK, GLOBAL TAX REBUFF
MINDFUL INTELLIGENCE REPORT ™
WEDNESDAY EDITION – MAY 22, 2024
editor Paul Gordon Collier
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns.” The voice of your watchmen—they lift up their voice; together they sing for joy; for eye to eye they see the return of the Lord to Zion. Isaiah 52:7-8
TOP STORY
MAR-A-LAGO RAID INCLUDED AUTHORIZATION TO KILL – The Mar-A-Lago FBI Raid approved by U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland included authorization to use lethal force, which is standard for all FBI Raids. However, the raid need not have happened in the first place, s it didn’t for Joe Biden, who was given much deferential treatment when the FBI sought to gather his allegedly mishandled top-secret documents.
The agents had instructions to check each room for unaccountable occupants, increasing the risk of an unintended incident at a former President’s residence. The optics of the potential for this raid to go wrong had no effect on the DOJ who could have collected the requested documents without ordering a surprise raid (save to the media who were tipped in advance to assure the event were caught on camera).

GERMANY DECRIMINALIZES CHILD PORNOGRAPHY POSSESSION – Germany’s Parliament has voted to reduce the possession of child pornography from a felony to a misdemeanor. The bill states “possession and acquisition should be punishable with a minimum penalty of three months’ imprisonment, and distribution with a minimum penalty of six months’ imprisonment, and distribution with a minimum penalty of six months’ imprisonment. The offenses regulated in Section 184b of the Criminal Code are therefore classified as misdemeanors and not as crimes.”
The bill’s proponents claim its purpose is to protect parents and teachers of children who download such material for the purpose of sharing it with law enforcement, but the need to decriminalize child porn possession was never needed since all that was needed was an amendment to the law that took such circumstances under consideration.
POTENTIAL U.S. TIKTOK BUYER WANTS TO DECENTRALIZE THE APP – U.S Billionaire Frank McCourt has thrown his hat into the “buy TikTok from the CCP” ring. The billionaire is hoping to turn TikTok into a decentralized app that would be hosted on his decentralized platform Polkadot.
From the press release announcing the bid: … Project Liberty is organizing a bid to acquire the popular social media platform TikTok in the U.S., with the goal of placing people and data empowerment at the center of the platform’s design and purpose… this bid for TikTok offers an innovative, alternative vision for the platform’s infrastructure – one that allows people to reclaim agency over their digital identities and data by proposing to migrate the platform to a new digital open-source protocol.

IRELAND, NORWAY, AND SPAIN RECOGNIZE PALESTINE AS STATE – Three European nations, Ireland, Norway, and Spain, have chosen to recognize the “state of Palestine,” a move that has led to Israel recalling all of its ambassadors from these nations and accusing the nations of attempting to undermine Israeli sovereignty.
Other moves from Israel include an expected total boycott of the three nations, in addition to any ambassadors still in Israel from these countries being compelled to watch video from the October 7 Massacre Israel claims this move by these three nations is giving legitimacy to.

‘“Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me. If I say to the wicked, ‘You shall surely die,’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, in order to save his life, that wicked person shall die for his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand. But if you warn the wicked, and he does not turn from his wickedness, or from his wicked way, he shall die for his iniquity, but you will have delivered your soul. ‘ Ezekiel 3:17-19
