The War on Reality: A Stand for Truth in a Twisted World

/ StoriesofStories / Leave a comment

Nothing is REAL anymore! And yet we call it Intelligence!

I keep asking myself — and I keep being asked — why do I stand with Elon Musk?

The answer is simple: HE IS REAL!

There is nothing more real today than Elon Musk.

And I want to tell you a story — a story about a reality we chose to twist, corrupt, and destroy for money. Dirty, filthy money, earned through shady businesses with even shadier people.

We live in a corrupted world that has lost control of its own reality.

Everyone is confused. Lost.

And I wouldn’t feel this way if I hadn’t lived through it — every layer of this mess.

I never truly understood what corruption was until I met my first State Department of Health inspector. She walked into one of my facilities after I filed a complaint about poor care. Management wouldn’t listen — they were more focused on being “diverse” than being professional.

Do you know what she told me?

“Me and your Director/Manager are friends. We worked together for the Department of Health.”


And in that moment, I understood: Corruption is everywhere.

My nurse friends laugh behind my back, warning each other:

“Never file a complaint — or you’ll end up like her.”


Do you want to know more about gangs, cartels, and organized crime and how federal police and intelligence agencies are playing the same dirty games, hand in hand with them?

Where can you go for help when everything is tainted? It’s a dirty mess.

This isn’t reality anymore — it’s THEIR reality. The reality of the ones who’ve corrupted the world.

War isn’t reality — but the money war brings? That’s the real motivation. War is encouraged, not because of necessity, but because it’s profitable. For them.

They say it’s reality — but it’s not. It’s their version.

Reality is simple: a man is a man. A woman is a woman. There’s nothing in between. But they’ve twisted that too, and created something else — another version of reality.

I wonder: How did the CIA get lured into this? Using intelligence tools — disguises, masks, prosthetics, psychological manipulation — to manufacture a new world?

Intelligence services were meant to protect reality — not create a false one.

So why are they doing it? Again — money?

Personalized care doesn’t mean enabling a psychopathic man to harass people on the street just because his sister is a psychiatrist who wants him “happy.” That’s not care — that’s false care in a false reality. That’s giving power to someone unstable and dangerous.

Reality is not doing “clean business” with dirty money, and then calling the participants good people. No. That’s a lie — a twisted version of what’s real.

You don’t kill the elderly just because you don’t want to pay for their care. That’s not “necessary policy” — that’s inhumanity, and it’s being disguised as normal.

I could take every job I’ve had, every person I’ve met, every event, every single day — and show you how someone, somewhere, is trying to replace TRUE REALITY with a new one.

A deeply wrong one that violates the values of good and decent life.


And if we keep going down this path — we will destroy humanity.


Do you want to adapt to this new reality where normal is no longer normal — and the crazy, the corrupt, the illegal, the fake, and the artificial become the standard?


Then keep going.


But I won’t.


I will keep fighting for what’s NORMAL, REAL, and GOOD in people.


Enough with the madness.

The Story of a Normal Life in a Twisted World

/ StoriesofStories / Leave a comment

Two different forms of intelligence, two different forms of understanding life, two different forms of action: intelligence and spirituality.

Between the two, we can either build or destroy.

We can protect life or play games that mess with it.

War and punishment justified emotionally through God, or peace and development supported by good rational intelligence?

Because the real danger isn’t just having too little of one or the other.

It’s not realizing that there’s more beyond our own values.

That there’s a depth to life, to human dignity, to the meaning of freedom—beyond control, beyond superiority.

And now, the story.
The same pattern, like always.

More meetings. More spies. More crazies. More corruption. Less respect.

Maybe he was right—I probably should have taken that spy class, just to understand the rules of the twisted game I was forced into.

But truly?

I’m not interested in using intelligence to take advantage of life. I don’t want to manipulate people. I don’t want power games.

I just want to live normally.

Just me, a registered nurse, in a modest life—So stupid as I am, so crazy as I might be, but honest. A small house. A little garden. A healthy, happy family.

Not low, like they want me to be, stepped on and humiliated.
Not top, like they expect their life to unfold, so they can put me in a box.

Just normal.

But back to the story.

The stalker didn’t give up.

He became more and more aggressive, more calculated, more present.

I changed my shifts, I changed my walking routes, I rearranged my entire life to avoid him.

But somehow, he still knew. He could monitor me—even from across the building.


Yesterday, I left home at 7 p.m., a time I almost never use.

He was right there, in front of my building.

I let him pass first. I wanted to avoid him, change my path, and I did. But at the next intersection, he entered my usual coffee shop—used every time I leave the house. He knew my routine, even the new one.

So I passed it. I picked a different coffee shop.
And then, five minutes later—I saw him again. Exiting my old coffee shop and walking past my new one, right where I was.
Fifteen minutes I waited, praying he had gone. But no.
He appeared again, sitting across my bus stop, eating.
He sat there until my bus came. He left only then.

Pictures made. Patterns documented. Coincidences piling up.

What kind of life is this?

A crazy, socialist existence.

Low income. Profession blocked. Hated for values. No freedom. A gang-controlled area drenched in corruption.

This is not paranoia—it’s real, seen, experienced.

So tell me—intelligence or spirituality?

You want to know what’s more dangerous?
It’s not lacking one or the other.
It’s misusing them both.

Intelligence without compassion turns into surveillance, manipulation, and power games.
Spirituality without truth turns into silence, guilt, and control.
And in both, there’s always a twisted, evil side if the heart behind them is sick.


People think spies are brilliant.

I’ll tell you why they get exposed:
Because they’re stupid, entitled, and reckless.
They forget the humanity in the game.
They think they’re above life.


So how to trust intelligence when it’s playing stupid games?

How to trust spirituality when it’s twisted into slogans, or used to crush the human spirit?

God is the true power.
That is God’s word—punishment and rebuilding.


Today, craziness rules.

Woke twists, corrupted values, fake empowerment—it’s all dangerous.

It destroys people’s lives, undoes families, shames the soul.

We are no longer fighting ignorance.

We are fighting twisted versions of wisdom—spiritual and intellectual—that have become monsters.


So again, the question:

What can spirituality offer to a poor, uneducated soul trapped in a freedom-restrictive, corrupt country?

Here’s the truth:

  • If it’s fake spirituality: Nothing.
  • If it’s real:
    It gives you strength to survive when everything is against you.
    It teaches you to not become the darkness that surrounds you.
    It reminds you of your worth when they try to erase it.
    It gives you the courage to keep your humanity, even when others lose theirs.


And intelligence?

Used the right way, it could free people.
Used the wrong way, it becomes the jail of freedom.


I’m not crazy.

I’m tired. I’m alert.

I’m surviving.

And I’m not ashamed of wanting a simple, normal life, where I can walk safely, work freely, love deeply, and never have to play games just to exist.


That’s not stupidity.

That’s clarity.

What Love Is Not – A Mother’s Day Tribute to Maria

/ StoriesofStories / Leave a comment

Today, I want to write a story about love. But not the love we think we know—because trauma often tricks us. When you’ve grown up in a household shaped by abuse, addiction, or mental illness, you may learn to love out of survival, not understanding what love truly means.

We believe we know love because we love people. But that’s not always enough. Sometimes, what we call “love” is just the ache to be loved in return. Trauma teaches us to perform love, to give too easily, hoping someone—anyone—will love us back. It creates a false version of ourselves: insecure, eager, desperate. Loving to be loved. And that’s the mistake.

Let me tell you the story of Maria—one of the most important stories of my life.

It was through Maria that I learned what love is not. Because of her, Mexico will always be close to my heart.

Maria’s Story

Maria was a Mexican dressmaker—young, beautiful, with black curly hair and always a big, colorful flower pinned to her hair. She was poor, but full of life, talent, and determination. She met an American man with a disability, and she married him, hoping to build a better life.

Maria worked tirelessly. She sold dresses, skirts, bedsheets—anything she could make with her hands. She had one baby. Then another. Then a third. And still, she handled everything: the household, the kids, and a husband with mental health issues who refused to work.

She didn’t have citizenship. She had almost nothing but her hands, her smile, her babies—and her dignity.

I remember meeting her on the street one day. I was with my partner, and he made fun of me in front of her—mocking my English and education to feel superior. I felt so humiliated.

But Maria stood up. With a naked baby on her hip, she looked him in the eye and said:

“A man is only as good as the way he treats his woman. And if you can’t lift her up, or worse—you try to put her down—you deserve to be alone.”

That day, Maria taught me what dignity looks like. And she showed me what love is not.

The Silent Sisterhood

My mother didn’t speak English. Maria didn’t speak my mother’s language either. But they always understood each other—through signs, gestures, glances. Because abused women always understand each other.

On the bus, Mama would always greet Maria, and Maria would always respond. Two women, broken but resilient, recognizing something familiar in one another.

Maria eventually left her husband. She took her three kids, found a job, and chose freedom. She is alive. She is free.

My mother didn’t get that chance. She went back to our home country, where she lived a life of abuse. She died in the same bed with her abuser—left to die, by the one who broke her.

This Mother’s Day

As Mother’s Day arrives, I think of Maria.

I think of the strength of women.
I think of freedom.
I think of the importance of knowing what love is not—so we can finally recognize what it is.

Love isn’t control.
Love isn’t humiliation.
Love isn’t earned through suffering.

Love is freedom. Love is dignity. Love is normal.

If someone’s mind cannot understand the normality of love because of their own trauma or mental illness, we must leave them.

We must protect our life, peace, and protect those we love.

Maria is free. My mother is gone.

And I am here—still learning, still healing, still remembering.

Happy Mother’s Day to every woman who loved through pain.

And to those who had the courage to walk away from what love is not.

Thank you, Maria.

Looking for a NORMAL RN Job, Because I’m the Best—But Not for Dirty Tricks! (Seriously, No Manipulative Drama Please)

/ StoriesofStories / Leave a comment

You’re down on your luck, broke, emotionally shredded, and feeling like life has decided you’re its favorite socialist punching bag. LOL

Suddenly, out of nowhere, someone comes in like the soldier of a bad soap opera, and they say, “With me, you’re safe. No one will hurt you again.”

Sounds great, right? Wrong.

This isn’t the beginning of a rescue story—it’s the trailer for a psychological horror film starring YOU as the victim.

Let’s break it down: they mess you with that “I’m the only one who understands you” nonsense.

Now, that might feel nice for a second, but what they really mean is, “I’m about to isolate you from everyone else in your life, so buckle up!”

Then comes the “You don’t need anyone else but me” line, which is manipulator code for, “Say goodbye to your friends, family, and anyone who might actually help you escape my clutches.”

By this point, you’re practically gift-wrapped for exploitation, and they’re rubbing their hands together like a cartoon villain.

But wait, it gets worse!

Society’s playing its own part in this mess.

You’re already living under a system that’s tighter than skinny jeans on a hot day.

Freedom? Forget it. Opportunities? Nonexistent.

And here comes your manipulator, armed with “Now’s your only chance—trust me.” Translation: “I’m taking advantage of your desperation to lock you into this disaster of a relationship faster than you can say, ‘red flag.’


And don’t even get me started on “Let me handle everything for you.”

Sure, it sounds like help, but what they really mean is, “Hand over your decision-making abilities, independence, and any remaining shreds of self-respect. I’ve got this—by ‘this,’ I mean control of your entire life.”

At this point, it’s a complete circus.

You’re in the center RING, juggling your trauma, poverty, and lack of resources, while society and your friendly neighborhood manipulator cheer you on to “just obey the rules.”

Those rules, of course, are specifically designed to keep you stuck—like some cruel Monopoly game where you never pass Go and certainly don’t collect $200.

The worst part?

The more you comply, the deeper you sink.

You start questioning yourself: “Maybe I really can’t do this on my own.” Spoiler alert: That’s exactly what they want you to think. Before you know it, you’re living in a self-destructive loop, following the “dirty rules” just to survive while your dreams pack their bags and move to a happier place without you.

It’s a recipe for disaster.

Trauma plus poverty plus control equals one epic meltdown, starring you, your lost freedom, and a manipulator who thinks they’re the boss, the psychopath puppets master!

It’s like watching a slow-motion train wreck—you can see it happening, but getting off the tracks feels impossible when the system is rigged against you.

You guessed right! IS socialism, woke and craziness!

The sad truth is, society loves this mess.

Oppression keeps people in line, the psychopaths manipulators fill the gaps with false promises, and the cycle just keeps spinning like a never-ending rerun of the worst reality show ever made.

But here’s the twist: recognizing the disaster is the first step to escaping it.
You are NORMAL rational human beings not like their SOCIALIST CRAZINESS, and you deserve to be FREE!

Spot those manipulative lines for what they are: bad scripts in a bad movie.

Build connections, even small ones, with people who genuinely care.

And whenever possible, say NO to the “dirty rules” and the so-called heroes who just want to play puppet master with your life.

Because trust me, freedom might be hard to achieve, but living as someone else’s pawn is the real disaster.


Common tactics and phrases manipulators use in such contexts:

1. Reassurance and False Security

  • “With me, you’re safe.”
  • “No one will hurt you while I’m around.”
  • “I understand you better than anyone else ever could.”
    These phrases aim to create a sense of security and portray the manipulator as a protector.

2. Isolation and Exclusivity

  • “I’m the only one who truly cares about you.”
  • “Others don’t understand you like I do.”
  • “You don’t need anyone else but me.”
    By isolating the person, manipulators make them dependent and cut them off from alternative sources of support.

3. Exploitation of Vulnerability

  • “I know what you’ve been through; I’ve been through it too.”
  • “I’m here to fix everything for you.”
  • “You deserve someone like me who understands your pain.”
    This taps into their emotions, making them feel seen and understood while positioning the manipulator as a savior.

4. Urgency and Pressure

  • “Now is the best time to make this change.”
  • “You’ll regret it if you don’t trust me right now.”
  • “This is your only chance to turn things around.”
    Urgency creates a fear of loss or missed opportunity, reducing the likelihood of logical decision-making.

5. False Flattery and Validation

  • “You’re so strong to have gone through what you did.”
  • “No one else sees how amazing you are, but I do.”
  • “You deserve so much more, and I can give that to you.”
    This inflates the individual’s sense of worth while tying their validation to the manipulator.

6. Control Disguised as Care

  • “I just want what’s best for you.”
  • “You don’t have to worry about anything anymore—I’ll handle it.”
  • “Trust me; I know what you need right now.”
    Such phrases give the illusion of support while subtly removing the person’s autonomy.

7. Guilt and Shame

  • “If you don’t trust me, it means you don’t care about what I’m doing for you.”
  • “After everything I’ve done for you, you’re still doubting me?”
  • “I’m the only one willing to stand by you; why are you pushing me away?”
    This shifts the blame onto the victim, making them feel responsible for the manipulator’s behavior.

8. Promises and Future Fantasies

  • “Our future together will be so beautiful.”
  • “I’ll make sure you never feel pain again.”
  • “We’re building something special here.”
    These promises keep the victim hooked, often postponing their realization that nothing substantial is happening.

Red Flags to Watch For

  • Inconsistencies: The manipulator’s actions often don’t match their words.
  • Dependency: They encourage dependence on them and discourage self-reliance.
  • Emotional Swings: Sudden shifts from being loving to controlling.
  • Discouragement of Outside Input: They may speak negatively about friends or professionals who challenge their influence.

Awareness of these tactics can help identify manipulative behavior early, empowering individuals to set boundaries and seek healthier connections.

Run as fast as you can if you hear these words!

And if you know of any NORMAL open RN jobs, with NORMAL-minded people, in a NORMAL professional environment, let me know!

I’m an excellent RN, but I don’t do bullshit!

Investigative Piece: Fort Bragg’s Troubling Connection to Afghanistan and Drugs

/ StoriesofStories / Leave a comment

Fort Bragg, home to the U.S. Army’s elite Special Forces and the 82nd Airborne Division, has long been considered a symbol of military excellence.

However, beneath this prestigious reputation lies a troubling series of events, including mysterious deaths, criminal activities, and allegations of systemic failures.

A key common denominator in many of these incidents is Afghanistan—the U.S. past military’s longest-running conflict, which has left a lasting impact on soldiers and operations linked to Fort Bragg.

Several of the most shocking cases at Fort Bragg have connections to Afghanistan, whether through soldiers’ past deployments, trauma from the war, or even criminal activities tied to the region.

This investigative piece looks deeper into how Afghanistan’s legacy haunts Fort Bragg, with disturbing the lives of soldiers who served there.

1. The Murders of Master Sgt. William J. Lavigne II and Timothy Dumas (December 2020)

The brutal murders of Master Sgt. William J. Lavigne II and Army veteran Timothy Dumas in December 2020 raised suspicion that their deaths might be connected to events in Afghanistan, particularly through illicit activities related to the war.

Lavigne, a Green Beret with extensive special forces experience, had multiple deployments to Afghanistan and other combat zones.

Master Sgt. William J. Lavigne II was a decorated Green Beret and a member of the U.S. Army’s elite Special Forces community. He served multiple combat tours, including deployments to Afghanistan, where he earned commendations for his service.

His career at Fort Bragg, North Carolina—home to the U.S. Army Special Operations Command—placed him among some of the military’s most highly trained soldiers.

Career Highlights:

Lavigne completed rigorous training to become a Green Beret, a role demanding exceptional skills in unconventional warfare, foreign internal defense, and counter-terrorism.

He participated in multiple deployments to Afghanistan and other combat zones. These tours were part of the U.S. military’s global counter-terrorism efforts, focusing on dismantling insurgent networks and training allied forces.

Awards and Recognition: His awards included commendations for valor and service, reflecting his commitment and bravery in combat zones.

Personal and Legal Troubles:

Despite his distinguished military record, Lavigne’s personal life was had lot of controversies:

Prior to his death, Lavigne had been involved in a 2018 fatal shooting incident in Harnett County, North Carolina, where he claimed self-defense, and no charges were filed.

FBI Vault

Additionally, Lavigne had a history of criminal activity, including a 2018 arrest for driving under the influence and a 2019 arrest for impersonating a police officer.

FBI Vault


Reports have suggested that Master Sergeant William J. Lavigne II may have been involved in illicit activities, including drug trafficking, though no formal charges were brought against him in these matters.

An upcoming book titled “The Fort Bragg Cartel: Drug Trafficking and Murder in the Special Forces” by Seth Harp investigates unsolved murders at Fort Bragg and explores connections to drug trafficking among elite soldiers.

Amazon

Additionally, Lavigne’s history includes multiple positive drug tests. In 2019, he tested positive for cocaine, d-amphetamine, and heroin during unit urinalysis inspections. Despite these results, he did not face court-martial; instead, his commanding officer planned to take administrative actions.

Chad Garland


Furthermore, in 2018, Lavigne was indicted on felony charges of harboring an escapee and maintaining a dwelling for controlled substances after authorities found a suspect with outstanding warrants and drugs at his home. These charges were later dropped when others involved took responsibility.

Fayetteville Observer


While these incidents suggest potential involvement in illicit activities, it’s important to note that Lavigne was not formally charged with drug trafficking or related criminal enterprises.


On December 2, 2020, the bodies of Master Sgt. William J. Lavigne II and Timothy Dumas, a retired Army veteran, were discovered at Fort Bragg in a remote training area. Both men died under suspicious circumstances, and their deaths were officially ruled homicides.

Timothy Dumas Sr., was a retired U.S. Army veteran, served from 1996 until his retirement in March 2016 as a Chief Warrant Officer 3.

During his 20-year military career, he was stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and specialized as a property accounting technician.

Fayetteville Observer

On December 2, 2020, Dumas, aged 44, was found deceased alongside Master Sergeant William J. Lavigne II in a training area at Fort Bragg. Both deaths were determined to be homicides caused by gunshot wounds.

ABC11

At the time of his death, Dumas was residing in Pinehurst, North Carolina. He was scheduled to appear in Forsyth County District Court on December 17, 2020, facing charges of breaking and entering, communicating threats, and impersonating a law enforcement officer related to an incident in April 2020.

Fayetteville Observer

In August 2023, an individual named Kenneth Maurice Quick Jr. was indicted on charges including murder, conspiracy to distribute cocaine, and firearm offenses in connection with the deaths of Dumas and Lavigne. The indictment alleges that Quick shot and killed Dumas on December 1, 2020, and subsequently attempted to conceal the bodies.

Fayetteville Observer

The investigation into the circumstances surrounding Dumas’s death is ongoing, with the FBI and the Department of the Army Criminal Investigation Division leading the efforts.

Fayetteville Observer

The tragic nature of his death, as well as Dumas’s connections to military personnel, suggested that there could have been deep-seated issues involving drugs, corruption, or trauma stemming from their time in the war.

The involvement of drug trafficking and organized criminal activities could indicate that Afghanistan’s shadow—specifically the country’s rampant drug trade—was a contributing factor in these events.

In regions like Afghanistan, where the narcotics trade has funded insurgent movements for years, the involvement of military forces is often a controversy.

2. The Disappearance and Murder of Specialist Enrique Roman-Martinez (May 2020)

Enrique Roman-Martinez was a soldier stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

He was serving as a paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division at the time of his tragic death on May 23, 2020. He was deployed to Afghanistan as part of his military service.

CID_ARMY

His case drew significant attention because he went missing during a camping trip with fellow soldiers near Cape Lookout National Seashore.

His partial remains were discovered days later on May 29, 2020, and the circumstances surrounding his death remain suspicious.

Roman-Martinez’s connection to Fort Bragg is central to the case, as he was active-duty military personnel stationed there.

The investigation into his death has raised questions about potential issues within military culture and justice, particularly concerning the accountability of the individuals who were with him during the camping trip.

The case remains unresolved and continues to be a point of focus for his family, advocates, and those seeking justice.


Many veterans returning from Afghanistan have struggled with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, and violent tendencies, and Roman-Martinez’s tragic death could be linked to these mental health issues.

Military families and experts alike have noted that the heavy psychological burden placed on soldiers who return from the war often leads to unforeseen consequences, including violent outbursts, criminal behavior, or even self-harm.

3. Sudden Deaths Linked to Overdose (June 2021)

The overdose deaths of Specialist Joshua Diamond and Private First Class Matthew Disney in June 2021 point to an alarming trend in the U.S. military—one that is particularly pronounced among soldiers who served in Afghanistan.

Joshua Diamond and Private First Class (Pfc.) Matthew Disney were both paratroopers stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, serving as field artillery fire finder radar operators in the 2nd Battalion, 319th Airborne Field Artillery Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team of the 82nd Airborne Division.

Army Times

Diamond enlisted in the Army in 2019 and was deployed to Iraq in 2020.

Army Times

Disney, a native of Aberdeen, Maryland, joined the Army in 2019 and arrived at Fort Bragg in 2020.

Army Times

Both soldiers were found unresponsive in their barracks on June 11, 2021, and were pronounced dead at the scene.

ABC11

Investigators suspected illicit drug involvement in their deaths.

Military Times

The official cause of death for both soldiers was later determined to be acute fentanyl toxicity.

Fayetteville Observer

There is no publicly available information indicating that either Diamond or Disney served in Afghanistan during their military careers.

Soldiers returning from such conflict zones often find it difficult to reintegrate into civilian or military life, with some turning to illicit substances to cope with trauma.

The drug-related deaths underscore the presence of the opioid crisis, particularly fentanyl, within military ranks.

Afghanistan’s long-standing association with the global narcotics trade has had an insidious effect on soldiers—particularly those who were exposed to the illicit drug networks while deployed.

Afghanistan has been a key producer of opium, and the demand for these drugs back home has only increased, adding another layer to the crisis that Fort Bragg is facing.

4. Master Sgt. Martin Acevedo’s Drug Trafficking Arrest (May 2021)

Master Sgt. Martin Acevedo III, a soldier assigned to the 18th Field Artillery Brigade at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, was arrested on May 12, 2021, for allegedly trafficking more than two kilograms of cocaine.

The arrest followed a search of his Fayetteville home, where authorities found the cocaine, firearms, and nearly $100,000 in cash. His son, Javed Josue Acevedo-Ramos, was also arrested in connection with the charges.

Army Times

At the time of his arrest, Acevedo was on terminal leave from the Army.

Both he and his son were charged with trafficking a Schedule II controlled substance and were held on a $500,000 secured bond before being released after posting bond on May 17, 2021.

Army Times

Regarding his connection to Afghanistan, there is no publicly available information indicating that Master Sgt. Acevedo served in Afghanistan or had any direct involvement with operations there.

The reports primarily focus on his arrest related to drug trafficking activities at Fort Bragg.. His arrest revealed an illegal drug network operating out of Fort Bragg.

Specific details about his prior assignments or deployments are not publicly available. Military personnel records, which would provide comprehensive information about his service history, are protected under the Privacy Act of 1974 and are not accessible without proper authorization. Therefore, without access to his official military records, it’s not possible to provide a detailed account of his service history.

5. The Growing Drug Crisis and Overdose Deaths

The sudden spike in overdose deaths at Fort Bragg, particularly fentanyl-related fatalities, points to a broader issue that military personnel—especially those who have served in Afghanistan—are facing.

Soldiers are increasingly turning to drugs as a coping mechanism, exacerbated by the trauma and pressures of war.

Afghanistan has played a significant role in the rise of the opioid epidemic, and soldiers who return from deployment are often vulnerable to addiction, further fueling this crisis.

In addition to the deaths of Diamond and Disney, Fort Bragg has experienced an increase in drug-related incidents, some of which involve narcotics that originated in Afghanistan.

This connection to the war-torn country’s drug trade is a critical element in understanding why Fort Bragg has seen such a rise in overdoses and substance abuse.

Sources:

Systemic Issues: Investigative Challenges and Military Oversight

The failure to fully address these drug-related and violent incidents has been compounded by a lack of transparency and oversight at Fort Bragg.

Afghanistan’s long-term impact on the mental health of soldiers, combined with the corrupting influence of the drug trade, has created an environment where such incidents go underreported or uninvestigated.

Fort Bragg has become a microcosm of the systemic failures plaguing the U.S. military, and these failures are directly tied to the war in Afghanistan.

Families of the victims have voiced frustration over the slow pace of investigations, especially in cases that involve combat veterans returning from Afghanistan.

The military’s inability to properly address the psychological and emotional toll of war has left many soldiers grappling with unresolved trauma.

Sources:

Other Disturbing Cases: PTSD, Suicide, and Terrorism Ties

In addition to the drug crisis and violent deaths, Fort Bragg has also witnessed a troubling rise in PTSD-related suicides, particularly among soldiers who served in Afghanistan.

The psychological scars left by the war, compounded by a lack of adequate mental health resources, have led many soldiers to take their own lives.

Moreover, the link between Afghanistan and terrorism has found its way into Fort Bragg through former soldiers like Shamsud-Din Jabbar, who have been tied to extremist activities.

The legacy of the war has not only left soldiers with PTSD but also created a fertile ground for radicalization, with some individuals developing ties to groups like ISIS after their deployments.

Sources:

Recent Terrorism-Related Incidents (2025)

Two additional individuals recently implicated in domestic terrorism-related activities were former soldiers from Fort Bragg who had also served in Afghanistan in 2009. These incidents provide a more recent, chilling connection to Afghanistan’s ongoing influence.

Shamsud-Din Jabbar and ISIS in New Orleans

Jabbar’s alleged ties to ISIS reflect the vulnerability some soldiers may face post-deployment. The New Orleans case highlights the complexity of the radicalization process, where former soldiers like Jabbar may find ideological connections to extremist groups.

His radicalization is believed to have taken root during his service in Afghanistan, where exposure to violence, extremist rhetoric, and the overall atmosphere of war may have played a crucial role.

New York Post
Army Times


Shamsud-Din Jabbar, was a 42-year-old U.S. Army veteran from Texas, identified as the perpetrator of a terrorist attack in New Orleans on January 1, 2025.

He drove a rented pickup truck into a crowd on Bourbon Street, resulting in 14 deaths and multiple injuries. Jabbar had pledged allegiance to ISIS and posted videos expressing his support for the organization prior to the attack.

Source: The Sun

Jabbar served in the U.S. Army as an information technology specialist and was stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He was also deployed to Afghanistan during his military career and was discharged from the Army Reserve in 2020 with the rank of staff sergeant.

Fox 9

Jabbar’s radicalization and allegiance to ISIS were central to his actions. He acted alone in the New Orleans attack, and his prior association with ISIS has been confirmed through his online postings and subsequent investigations.

While Jabbar’s radicalization and terrorist affiliations are well-documented, there is no publicly available evidence linking him to drug-related offenses or drug trafficking activities.

Another individual, Matthew Livelsberger, involved in a separate incident linked to an explosion in Las Vegas, was also stationed at Fort Bragg.

However, authorities have found no direct connection between Jabbar and Livelsberger beyond their shared military service at the same location.

Master Sgt. Matthew Livelsberger’s Bombing in Las Vegas

Master Sergeant Matthew Alan Livelsberger, a 37-year-old U.S. Army Green Beret, was identified as the individual responsible for the Tesla Cybertruck explosion outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas on January 1, 2025.

BBC


Livelsberger was enlisted in the U.S. Army after high school through the 18X program, which allows recruits to directly enter Special Forces training. He served as a Special Forces Intelligence Sergeant, commonly known as a Green Beret, and was on approved leave from his base in Germany at the time of the incident. CBS News

He enlisted in 2006 and deployed twice to Afghanistan, among other overseas assignments in Germany, Ukraine, Tajikistan, Georgia, and Congo.

His military honors included two Bronze Stars, one with a valor device, and a combat infantry badge.

Livelsberger served in Afghanistan and, in a manifesto sent before the Las Vegas incident, he made allegations of covering up war crimes during airstrikes in Nimruz Province in 2019, claiming the deaths of hundreds of civilians. These claims were corroborated by a report from the United Nations.

There is no available evidence linking Livelsberger to drug-related traffic or crimes. The focus of reports has been on his military career, his radical actions in Las Vegas, and his allegations regarding war crimes.

Originally from Colorado Springs, Colorado, Livelsberger had a history of personal challenges, including a divorce from his first wife, Sara. Friends of his ex-wife described his behavior during their marriage as “bizarre and unhealthy,” noting that he mocked her struggles with depression. New York Post

Prior to the Las Vegas explosion, Livelsberger had no known criminal record. However, his actions on January 1, 2025, were a drastic deviation, involving a suicide bombing with a Tesla Cybertruck outside the Trump International Hotel.

In conclusion, Matthew Livelsberger had a distinguished military career, including multiple deployments to Afghanistan, but no known connections to drugs or other crimes before the Las Vegas incident.


On January 1, 2025, Livelsberger’s rented Tesla Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. Prior to the explosion, he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The vehicle was found to contain fireworks-style mortars and gas canisters, indicating the explosion was intentional. BBC

Seven bystanders sustained minor injuries due to the explosion. BBC


Investigators discovered notes on Livelsberger’s phone suggesting he intended the act as a “wake-up call,” expressing frustration with American society’s inclination toward violence and spectacle. He denied terrorist affiliations, describing his actions as a political statement against the U.S. government and a means to “cleanse” himself of mental burdens. The Independent


Authorities are exploring whether his military experiences, including potential post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), contributed to his actions. Livelsberger had been receiving mental health assistance over the last year. ABC News

The FBI and local law enforcement continue to investigate the incident, focusing on Livelsberger’s motives, potential affiliations, and the planning leading up to the explosion. Authorities are also reviewing his recent activities and communications to gain further insight.

The Independent

This event has raised concerns about the mental health of military personnel and the potential for individuals with combat experience to engage in violent acts post-deployment. The investigation remains active, with authorities urging the public to report any relevant information.

Conclusion: Afghanistan’s Lasting Impact on Fort Bragg

The common denominators in many of the troubling events at Fort Bragg are the Afghanistan deployments and drugs.

The legacy of the war has left scars on soldiers, and the narcotics trade that flourished in Afghanistan has now infiltrated the very US ARMY ranks that were sent to fight it.

To prevent further tragedies, the U.S. military must confront these issues head-on, ensuring that proper mental health care and oversight are available for returning soldiers.

Only by addressing the root causes of these problems—many of which stem directly from Afghanistan and Drugs trade—can the US military begin to heal and protect its personnel from the ongoing consequences of a war that may have ended, but continues to shape lives today.

When Did Crazy Become the New Normal?

Ah, the holiday season—a time for joy, reflection, and… society’s image

Outside a store, someone injects heroin in plain sight.
Inside a café, a man sips expensive tea, mumbling incoherently to himself.
It’s like watching the collapse of normality with a festive bow on top.

Somewhere along the way, we lost the distinction between right and wrong. Today, wrong isn’t just tolerated—it’s celebrated, exploited, and turned into profit.

If you dare to speak up, you’re silenced, ridiculed, and pushed aside.
Doing the right thing now feels like you are against the world that rewards chaos.

Normal has become a luxury.

Look around. The system doesn’t just accept brokenness; it incentivizes it.

  • Addicted? Here’s an endless cycle of enabling.
  • Poor? No problem—there is happiness for that.
  • Lost all sense of reality? Great! You’ll fit right in.

Meanwhile, those trying to stay grounded, educated, and self-sufficient face a rising cost of living and declining opportunities. It’s as if sanity and responsibility are being systematically punished.

How did we get here?

On rainy streets, needles sparkle like Christmas tree ornaments—a perfect metaphor for a system designed to control through destruction.

It’s not just addiction; it’s an entire societal structure built on dysfunction.
The worst part? This new “normal” thrives on human lives—broken spirits, lost futures, and dirty money. VERY DIRTY MONEY!

The chaos has come into everything.

Even my own “crazy ghost” feels right at home, MY HOME, trailing me through the streets. I’ve even pointed him out to my child: “Look, there’s the ghost that won’t leave us alone.” Because his family part of THIS society told him that HE DESERVES and IS ALLOWED to mess around!

But in a world consumed by corruption and mess, who’s left to help?

Is this really the best we can do?

Some say, we THE NORMAL ONES, we need therapy to adjust to THEIR madness.

But shouldn’t we be asking how to rebuild a world where decency, order, and humanity matter again?

Where normal doesn’t feel like an impossible dream?

So, until things turn around, here’s my advice—keep praying, stay sane, and hold on hope and NORMAL good values until January 20, 2025.

Because let’s face it, if things don’t change soon, crazy might be all we’ve got left.


Happy Holidays, everyone! Stay normal—if you can afford it. 🎄

Tears in Hell

/ StoriesofStories / Leave a comment

I cried. I cried through my childhood, my teenage years, and even during my marriage, surviving both emotional and physical abuse.

And then I became wild—wild so that no one would ever touch me again. Ever!

But no one taught me that people struggling with mental health issues could destroy you even worse than physical abuse.

Because women, like me, always try to fix someone. And that’s the trap!

No one can truly be fixed. No one can be taken care of .

Mental health struggles can’t be cured—they can be managed, controlled, and balanced, but never cured.

And if you try to fix them, you will lose the battle. Every. Single. Time.

So I cried again. From 2002 to 2007, I cried every single day—worse on Christmas than on any other day. Like today.

Because people with mental health issues are unable to realize what they’re doing.

To them, it’s normal. But their “normality” isn’t normal.

I read hundreds of books. I took hundreds of classes.

And still, I learned this hard truth: people with mental health struggles CAN use and manipulate others—because no one will tells them the truth about THEM own selves!

No one says: “You are mental sick, and if you’re not aware of it, your behavior will hurt and destroy normal people. Or worse—others who are already hurted because of someone like you.”

So I cried.

Until one day, I was saved and FREE in the USA.

But I wasn’t safe. I was still an easy target—still used and abused. Vulnerable people will always remain vulnerable until they become aware of their vulnerabilities.

But today, the cycle of my abuse ended!

No more tears. No more wild responses. No more being manipulated by narcissistic behaviors. No more ignorance of toxic dynamics like triangulation. No more tolerating obsessive or controlling behaviors.

Today, I stood up and spoke out.

This is the truth. This is THE normal—not madness, not chaos, not twisted behaviors.

Like it or not, everyone is free to embrace their own “madness”—but NOT with me. Not around me.

So today, I didn’t cry. I wasn’t wild. I simply said: NO.

No to manipulation. No to madness.

Normality, not Craziness!

Another Letter to Elon Musk

I worked with them—homeless individuals, street workers, those struggling with addiction, and those battling mental health challenges. I’ve seen it all: the dealers, the tangled networks of exploitation, the pervasive corruption, the stories of recovery, the support services, hospitals, and the fractured societies.

And here’s the undeniable truth: in a corrupted society, you cannot truly help anyone. Not the average person, and certainly not the most vulnerable—those who are homeless, addicted, mentally unwell, elderly, young, or single women.

Why? Because the machinery of corruption exists to launder enormous sums of money—shifting it from clean to dirty, dirty to clean—and it preys on society’s most vulnerable. Who could be easier to exploit than those already trapped in poverty, addiction, or mental health struggles?

In such a society, trust is destroyed. People lose faith in institutions, knowing that reaching out for help might entangle them in a web of manipulation, coercion, and exploitation. Instead of finding support, they are often used as pawns in the corrupt system’s game—a game driven not by compassion, but by greed and control.

This is the true root of homelessness, addiction, and mental health crises. Not the individuals themselves, but the corrupt society around them.

A society fueled by profit from misery, where suffering becomes a commodity, cannot provide genuine solutions. It perpetuates these crises for its gain.

Fix the society—its corruption, greed, and exploitation—and you’ll address the core of these issues. Until then, the cycle of despair will continue, FED by a system that thrives on brokenness.

Sincerely,
Someone who’s seen the truth.

Călin Georgescu’s Mental Marathon into Presidential Fitness

/ StoriesofStories / Leave a comment

When it comes to running a country, cognitive and emotional stability are kind of a big deal.

In the case of Călin Georgescu, whose bold proclamations and unconventional worldview are more TikTok than reality, there’s an entertaining yet serious conversation to be had about what happens when leadership takes a detour into fantasy land.

Risky Decisions: A Rollercoaster Ride of Statetments

An emotionally unstable leader can take us on a joyride of impulsive and poorly informed decisions.

In Georgescu’s case, his solutions range from “vaccinate with cold water” to calling NATO a “conflict promoter.” Such statements don’t just lack coherence; they’re practically scripts for a satire show.

Translation into Reality:
The potential for mismanagement during public health crises or national security threats could be shocking. Imagine trying to address global diplomacy with “the only real science is Jesus Christ” as your guiding principle—it’s both bold and confuse.

Crisis Management: Or Lack of it?

Presidents are the go-to crisis managers. Whether it’s economic instability or a foreign policy mess, the ability to react calmly and rationally under stress is critical.

Unfortunately, Georgescu’s responses—like suggesting Ukraine’s Zelenskyy is “bad for his country” while praising Russia’s “wisdom”—suggest a passion for stress-induced mistakes.

Satirical Angle:
Picture this: A hypothetical invasion scenario where Georgescu reassures citizens with, “We’re in God’s hands, not NATO’s.” A spiritual Tiktok talk, sure—but not exactly what you’d want to hear during a geopolitical crisis.

Manipulability: Who’s Really in Charge?

Unstable individuals are often easier to manipulate, making them a risk for falling prey to external influences. Georgescu’s admiration for Russian policies and skepticism of Western alliances hint at an openness to narratives that could jeopardize national sovereignty.

Humorous Take:
Imagine the Romanian parliament receiving policy drafts written in old Cyrillic because “Russia wisdom” had a guiding hand. It’s absurd but raises genuine concerns.

Public Confidence: Down the Rabbit Hole

Leaders perceived as unstable risk eroding public trust. Whether it’s promoting controversial WWII figures or dismissing scientific consensus, Georgescu’s declarations start polarizing debates that could destabilize national unity.

The Meme-ification of Leadership:
Georgescu’s approach ensures his presidency would be meme diamond—but at what cost?

Ridiculing your ALLIES might be fun for Tiktok or with your drank and crazy friends but it’s less enjoyable when ROMANIA’s credibility on the global stage goes down.

Polarization and Protests

A president with significant mental health concerns can amplify divisions within society, leading to protests and unrest.

Georgescu’s fiery rhetoric, from “Romania is a slave of the West” to praising Russia, might mobilize fringe groups while alienating moderates.

Economic Stability: A Comedy of Errors

Investor confidence often depends on predictable leadership.

Georgescu’s rejection of “Western enslavement” and promotion of economic isolationism might scare off foreign investors faster than you can say “recession.”

Funny Hypothetical:
A global business summit where Georgescu presents a PowerPoint titled Why Trade Is Overrated, complete with slides on subsistence farming and cold water plunges.

Security Risks: Diplomatic Disaster in the Making

From calling NATO unnecessary to praising a rival superpower, Georgescu’s foreign policy stances don’t just raise eyebrows—they might also raise alarms among allies.

Potential Solutions: From Comedy to Constitutional Cleanup

  1. Mental Health Evaluations for Leaders:
    Georgescu’s statements suggest the need for thorough screening processes before elections. Running a country isn’t open mic night.
  2. Legislative Interventions:
    If TikTok rhetoric becomes policy, parliament might need mechanisms to step in and steady the ship.

Conclusion: A Presidential Plotline from the Twilight Zone

While Călin Georgescu’s leadership style may entertain, it also highlights the serious risks of unfit leadership.

From impulsive decision-making to eroded public trust, the stakes are too high to ignore—even if the comedy writes itself.

Ten Years of Silence: My Life Under Surveillance

/ StoriesofStories / Leave a comment

It’s been ten years since my life changed, ten years since I fell under the watchful eyes of people who saw me not as a person but as a problem to be monitored, controlled, and kept in line.

I live in a place where power is dirty and the alliances even dirtier. A place where everyone seems bound by invisible threads of loyalty to something sinister.

They call it “socialism” here, but there’s little in the way of equality or justice. Instead, there are powerful networks, hidden hands, and people who think they own your life if you dare to say, “No.”

It started when I turned down an offer—an offer that seemed harmless on the surface. “Just work with us,” they said. “You’ll help keep things running smoothly.”

They didn’t say it outright, but I knew what it was—a way to bring me into their fold, to make me another pawn in their system of quiet corruption.

And then, when I turned them down, the real nightmare began.

A Life Under the Microscope

Saying no meant something different to them. To me, it was just an answer, but to them, it was a threat, a betrayal. “If she’s not with us, maybe she’s against us.”

Suspicion became a constant presence, and then came the questions—the quiet, invasive kind.

They would come up to me on the street, stop me in the grocery store, or “run into me” in a café. Friendly questions about my work, my life, my friendships. All innocent enough, but the questions were a little too personal, a little too pointed. And no matter where I went, they always seemed to know where I was.

Then the questions started changing, becoming sharper, less polite. “What were you doing last night?” they’d ask with a hint of accusation. “Who were you talking to?” And they would watch my reaction, studying my face, like they were dissecting my mind, waiting to catch me in a lie or find something they could use.

Over time, the questions turned into interrogation. They didn’t even pretend it was friendly anymore. They would come into my space, force me into situations where I couldn’t escape their scrutiny. I was innocent, but that didn’t seem to matter.

They would use what I’ve come to know as the Reid Technique—a strategy of manipulation, a way to break someone down without laying a hand on them. They’d ask questions, interrupt any answer, make accusations, twist words until I was questioning my own reality. It’s a method usually used on criminals. But I was no criminal—I was just someone who refused to be part of their game.

Losing Myself to the System

At first, I tried to stand up to them. I was firm, I held my ground. But after a while, their constant scrutiny wore me down. Every time I left my house, I felt like someone was watching, waiting to pounce.

The confident strong American Nurse grew anxious in public, feeling like my every move was under a magnifying glass. SOCIALISM! Corruption! Dirty law enforcement ! And organized crime! My round around the subject! Even in my own home, I felt their presence, like a shadow that refused to leave.

My car, my phone, my email—everything felt like it was being monitored.

It didn’t take long before I started doubting my own sanity. “Maybe I’m overreacting,”

I’d tell myself, but deep down, I knew I wasn’t. They were always there, waiting for me to break, watching my life through some invisible lens. Personal things started to disappear. Bullies grow. Friends stopped calling, family members grew distant—they either didn’t understand or, worse, started to believe the lies and insinuations that were planted around me.

No Place for Justice

The worst part? There was no one to turn to. Reporting it was useless because they were the system. The police corrupted were in on it, the officials corrupted looked the other way, and everyone else just shrugged. This is the way things work here, they would say, almost with pity in their eyes. I’d become someone who stood out, someone who didn’t fit into their mold, and so, I was treated as the enemy.

Even a dirty corrupted police officer dared to tell me “go back to school, who do you think you are? An American? You are not a good enough nurse for our socialist system!”.

But I would have been if I was part of your league, wouldn’t it? came to my mind.

I never thought something like this could happen—this constant state of being watched, of having your mind pulled in every direction until you’re left doubting yourself. I began to feel like a ghost, drifting through a world that once felt familiar but now felt like a prison without walls.

Ten Years

After ten years of this, I’ve lost so much. My privacy, my sense of peace, my friends, and sometimes, my own voice. They haven’t broken me, but they’ve left scars that won’t fade. I’ve come to understand what psychological abuse feels like, the kind that doesn’t leave bruises but cuts you down just the same.

I can’t say I know how to fix this, but I know what needs to change.

People need a country to go when the system fails them.

I know now that interrogation techniques like the Reid Technique, when misused, are weapons as real as any, turning ordinary lives into battlegrounds.

We need oversight, transparency, and a system that actually serves the people it’s supposed to protect.

Without that, the damage and people like me are left to fend for ourselves in silence.

A Path to Freedom

Through it all, I’ve found hope in people who refuse to give up, people who stand up for themselves and others despite the risks. And I know this won’t last forever.

The people running any corrupted socialist system think they’re untouchable, but every system has its breaking point, every network of corruption has its weak links.

I believe in something better—something honest and fair, where power can’t just hide behind elegant smiles, twisted words and a lot of dirty money.

Maybe I’m still here because I know that if enough of us see the truth and share our stories, they won’t be able to keep us in silence forever.

We deserve better, and no matter what they do, I won’t stop believing in a day when their grip on people like me finally breaks.

Until then, I hold on to the hope that, someday soon, we’ll find a way to bring the truth to light and reclaim our lives from those who would control them in the shadows.

And maybe, just maybe, that will be enough to break the chains that have kept so many of us silent for too long.
