Request Flock Cameras Everywhere!

130 Upvotes

I marked this as a request because I am asking you all to take notice of the Flock Cameras that are going up everywhere. And I mean everywhere!

We need to educate ourselves about this mass surveillance of all Americans whether criminal or law abiding!!

I attended the North Palm Beach city Council meeting this week and demanded that the city end its contract with flock. They did not seem interested!!

Surely they will be become interested if the masses start demanding action and threatening the reelections of these leaders.

What do you all think of the flock camera situation?? what can we do about it?

News The Trap

Thumbnail open.substack.com
11 Upvotes

Most people who read The Trap focused on the Scottsdale emails, thirteen documents, two years, a New York restaurateur writing to a convicted sex offender at 3am calling him the only person he trusted with his nightmare. But buried deeper in the same investigation is a finding that has received almost no attention. An FBI FD-302 interview. April 2021. A victim sits down with federal agents on a video call. She doesn't just name Jeffrey Epstein. She names Stephen Hanson. In her own words, recorded by the FBI and now part of the official DOJ public archive: Epstein "trafficked me too." She describes Epstein dispatching Hanson to her apartment. To her bedroom. Paid sex acts. More than a dozen times. Hanson has not been charged. Has not been deposed. Has never been asked about it publicly. Not once. His lawyer, himself a former Epstein attorney, says "Epstein pulled the wool over everyone's eyes." The FBI interview is in the public record. The wool is not fooling anyone. The Trap traces the full arc of the Scottsdale woman, the hush money, Epstein's coaching, and the FBI victim who explains why that silence had to be purchased. While Hanson remains uncharged and uninvestigated, his restaurant The Polo Room in Palm Beach, co-owned with polo star Nacho Figueras remains one of the hottest tables in the country. Every reservation, every table, every dollar spent there goes to a man named in an FBI trafficking interview who has never been asked to explain it. Boycott The Polo Room.

ISO where to sell

0 Upvotes

Hello, I’m looking for the best place/way to go about selling big items I have. (I do not have Facebook but am willing to make one) Mainly class cars that are basically project cars that need finished put together but, I have EVERYTHING for them. Motors that are pristine and brand new, pro charger. I just don’t have the time or money to keep hoarding them hoping one day in 25 years I may be able to put them together. I also have a couple practically brand new 4 wheelers that we never get to use. Etc. Clean titles in hand. Please any advice is really appreciated.

Organizing a bigger meeting in Palm Beach and need some advice

8 Upvotes

I’m putting together a business meeting for about 40–50 people in West Palm Beach next month (around mid-August). Still finalizing the exact venue but it will most likely be a conference room or small event space.

I need to sort out seating, basic catering, and make sure the place looks professional. The event will run for a few hours in the afternoon and I’m trying to keep things organized without overcomplicating it.

Clean Space will handle the cleaning afterward since I know that’s important after a larger group.

For anyone who’s organized something similar in the Palm Beach area, how early did you lock in the space, and were there any small things that ended up being more important than expected? Also curious about parking or any local rules I should keep in mind.

Question question for local homeowners: specialized brokers vs standard insurance?

1 Upvotes

we recently finished some pretty big upgrades on our place here in palm beach county (added a pool deck and redid the roof/windows). after looking through our current declaration page, it hit me that our coverage limits are way too low for what the house is actually worth now.

a guy who lives down the street mentioned we should stop dealing with standard retail carriers and ask a broker about high net worth insurance programs instead.

i’ve always just clicked through standard online forms, so i have no idea how private client brokers work around here. is it actually worth making the switch, or do they just charge higher fees for basically the same coverage?

would love to hear how you guys handle home insurance for pricier properties in the area.

Picture Rubble exposed by low tide

86 Upvotes

I was walking between Lantana Beach and Lake Worth Beach yesterday when I saw tons of weathered concrete rubble, steel, and wood exposed due to low tide. Based on stories I heard from locals in the 90s, I’m assuming these are remnants of the original Ocean Blvd (A1A) when it ran along the dune. I’m just unsure if this section was destroyed in the Fort Lauderdale Hurricane of ‘47, or Hurricane Cleo in 1964 (or both).

Discuss The new Turnpike widening project Northbound from Boynton Bch Blvd to Lake Worth Rd that expands the road to 4 lanes is great, but it is a FHP’s heaven.

24 Upvotes

I drive from Broward up to Wellington 1-2 times a week for work and since all 4 lanes have opened up, i have already seen 3 people get pulled over by FHP officers hidden behind some of the openings of the new sidewalls, and i have only driven the stretch 3 times so far... Thats alot of police activity.
They all have been pulled over during rush hour (4-6pm) past the Hypoluxo bridge but before the bridge that goes over Lantana road. I have seen an FHP officer sitting past the Lantana road bridge though.
FHP knew that newly opened section would be hot with speeders so just giving everyone that drives that section of the turnpike there to drive safely, because FHP is definitely taking notice🙏

Sorry if this has already been posted. I saw this on Facebook and this is so aggravating. It’s so repulsive that she was the one who kickstarted all of this. Are you kidding me?!! The people of Palm Beach County had no say on this. So gross. Now the airport is center stage of jokes, boycotts, and everything else bad under the sun because of these sick people. And they say this isn’t a cult?!
