STONEZONE (Roger Stone) - Teflon Steve Bannon is Receiving Deep State Protection

Bannon can never be trusted. His reputation is beyond rehabilitation. Last week, Chinese billionaire and phony anti-CCP crusader Guo Wengui, better known by his aliases Miles Guo or Miles Kwok, received a 30-year federal prison sentence in Manhattan.

Bannon can never be trusted. His reputation is beyond rehabilitation. Last week, Chinese billionaire and phony anti-CCP crusader Guo Wengui, better known by his aliases Miles Guo or Miles Kwok, received a 30-year federal prison sentence  in Manhattan. Prosecutors and the judge described a massive fraud that stole over $1 billion from thousands of investors and supporters, many of them Chinese immigrants drawn in by promises of fighting the Communist regime through media ventures, stock offerings, cryptocurrency, and exclusive clubs. Guo lived large on the proceeds—yachts, penthouses, supercars—while delivering nothing of value to victims. Bannon was no peripheral figure  in Guo’s criminal enterprise. He co-founded GTV Media Group…Open

STONEZONE (Roger Stone) - Flock Cameras Harm Law Enforcement’s Aims and Kill Our Constitutional Rights

It is time for localities and states to ban these cameras immediately before society becomes a powder keg.

It is time for localities and states to ban these cameras immediately before society becomes a powder keg. As MAGA Republicans watch American cities decay under decades of Democrat governance—rising crime, open disorder, failed soft-on-crime policies—Flock cameras are being floated as a plausible solution. These automated license-plate readers have proliferated by the tens of thousands across the country, often installed with little public notice or debate. What began as a quiet expansion has now triggered a widespread and growing backlash. That backlash is far from irrational. It is the natural response of free people who recognize a fundamental threat to their privacy rights when they see one. Reports of vandalism against Flock…Open

What are some "nightmare scenarios" involving Flock cameras mentioned in the article?
Potential scenarios include using vehicle tracking to enforce quarantine zones or monitor "non-essential" travel during emergencies; tracking citizens traveling to gun stores, ranges, or Second Amendment events to justify "red flag" actions; monitoring attendance at political rallies, church services, or school board meetings to pressure dissenters; and integrating the network with digital identification or central-bank digital currencies to make movement a "conditional privilege."

What potential risks do Flock cameras pose to Fourth Amendment protections according to the text?
The text argues that the widespread presence of these cameras leads to the functional end of the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable searches because there is no longer a meaningful presumption of privacy on American roads, creating an expectation that every movement is logged. This continuous tracking can cause people to self-censor, alter their routes, or avoid certain destinations due to the knowledge that their patterns are being recorded and queried.

What is the argument against using Flock cameras as a substitute for traditional law enforcement?
The argument is that these cameras act as a "quiet technological substitute" for community policing, which serves as a "sneaky end-run" around the demand to fund and support human police officers. Rather than putting more officers on the streets or detectives on cases, the system shifts authority from local beat cops to a networked database controlled by private vendors and distant administrators, which the author describes as "defunding [law enforcement] by other means."

How has Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley responded to transparency activists and concerns regarding immigration enforcement?
Garrett Langley has referred to transparency activists who map camera locations as a "terroristic organization," though he later issued a "tepid apology" following backlash. Regarding immigration enforcement, he stated the company has "no opinion" and noted that authorities will enforce the law regardless of Flock's actions.
