With so much “headline-worthy” news this past week, a story that barely was mentioned in the media on Friday, was the news that Trump pardoned a bunch of convicted criminals.

These were mainly Big Tech investors, including the Mormon billionaire, Trevor Milton, founder of Nikola Motors, an EV start-up company that was making cyber trucks, and at one time had a valuation higher than Ford Motors.

The founder and former CEO of bankrupt EV startup Nikola Motors has been pardoned by President Donald Trump.

Trevor Milton was sentenced to four years in prison in 2023 for fraud after misleading investors about Nikola’s hydrogen and electric trucks. He had been free pending appeal of his conviction.

Milton founded Nikola in 2014 and oversaw the company’s rapid rise. At one point, the truckmaker was worth more than Ford.

However, he stepped down in 2020 after a damning report from short-seller Hindenburg Research alleged that Nikola had exaggerated the capabilities of its trucks and faked publicity videos — including by rolling a truck down a hill to make it look like it was driving.

A BI investigation previously found the Milton had a history of bending the truth, falsely stating the Nikola One zero-emissions truck showcased at a splashy unveiling in 2016 was fully functional.

Despite recovering somewhat after Milton’s departure, Nikola ultimately filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last month after facing a cash crunch. (Source.)

The White House did not provide any notices of Friday’s pardons, but did confirm them when asked. Milton thanked Trump for the pardon, and reporters asked Trump why he pardoned Milton. He replied that it was “highly recommended by many people.”

He also claimed that the conviction was “politically motivated” because Milton supported him.

When asked why he issued the pardon, Mr. Trump said on Friday that Mr. Milton had been “highly recommended” by many people and suggested that his prosecution had been political.

“They say the thing that he did wrong was he was one of the first people that supported a gentleman named Donald Trump for a president,” Mr. Trump said in the Oval Office. “He supported Trump. He liked Trump.”

“I had these fantastic recommendations about him from people that you know very well, all top-of-the-line people,” Mr. Trump said. “They thought it was a horrible thing.” (Source.)

Milton and his wife reportedly contributed $1.8 million to Trump’s campaign, as well as $750,000 to Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and his MAHA Alliance, a political action committee that tried to persuade supporters of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to back Mr. Trump after Mr. Kennedy dropped out of the presidential race.

Mr. Milton contributed $121,000 directly to Mr. Kennedy’s campaign in September, after it was suspended, the records show according to the New York Times.

Brad Bondi, a member of Mr. Milton’s defense team during the trial, is reportedly the brother of Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Mr. Milton reportedly became very rich from Nikola, even though he never had a working model. In one demo, he reportedly used a GM truck and simply replaced its logo with Nikola’s to make it look like he actually had a working model.

In 2019, he purchased a $32.5 million 2,000 acre ranch in Utah, the largest purchase on record in that state.

Even before his trial for fraud with Nikola Motors, Milton was investigated for sexual abuse in a huge scandal in Utah that involved the Attorney General, and an associate of Milton who reported this, but then was later found dead by “suicide.”

FOX 13 Investigates: Utah AG did not investigate billionaire, future campaign donor for sex assault

Last month, Utah billionaire Trevor Milton was convicted in New York on three counts of fraud for lying to investors about his electric truck company Nikola Motors. He now faces up to 20 years in prison.

Long before he was indicted on suspicion of fraud, three women and two of Milton’s former friends accused him of sexual misconduct.

The allegations began with a man named Jonny Robb from Cottonwood Heights.

Robb and Milton considered themselves friends for years. The two took trips together as part of the same social circle. Other members of the group said, even though Robb did not come from money, he had a rich social life – easily making friends due to his fun-loving personality.

According to Robb, as the two spent more time together, he started to learn how Milton treated women. As Milton’s company became more successful, the two spent less time together.

As their friendship became more distant, Robb said the things he knew about Milton’s behavior ate at him.

In 2020, Robb threatened to publish screenshots of inappropriate messages Milton sent to women. He accused Milton of sexual assault and trying to pay women to have sex while Milton watched.

The two confronted each other through messages on Instagram. Eventually, Milton reported Robb to police – accusing his former friend of blackmail.

FOX 13 News obtained a series of audio recordings from the Utah Attorney General’s Office showing how special agents interviewed both Robb and Milton.

“He was asking for half a million dollars,” Milton said.

“I never offered these girls to hook up with me. Not once. I never offered them money to hook up with me… I have no other option other than just to go along with what he’s demanding… In this world, you’re guilty no matter what when it comes to women.”

“Just so we’re on the same page, for this to work, you’ve got to be totally upfront,” a special agent said.

“About your relationships, about anything he might have on you. We do need to know that, okay?”

“I definitely opened up to him about a lot of things. Nothing that I’ve ever worried would come back and be anything criminal,” Milton said.

“The worst thing I ever did in my life was tell these girls to go hook up with other guys.”

Milton originally reported Robb to the Summit County Sheriff’s Office. The Utah Attorney General’s Office took over the case. Neither agency explained why.

The Utah Attorney General’s Office arrested Robb at a hotel in Murray.

Robb told investigators Milton’s behavior was worse than described. He argued the money was Milton’s idea, a deal to prevent him from releasing more damaging information about Milton’s conduct with women.

Robb described the 500,000 dollars as a “settlement,” not blackmail.

“Dude, I’ve hung onto every single dirty criminal secret with women that (he’s) ever ****ing done, dude,” Robb said.

“(He’s) got like thousands of skeletons in (his) closet, and these skeletons want justice… I’m bringing it all out dude. The truth. All of it. Every little bit of it.”

“How are we supposed to believe that that’s true?” the special agent asked.

“You got my phone? Go grab my phone. We’ll pull it all up,” Robb said.

“I have a bank full of this stuff, and he knows it… wait until you read what he’s done to women, bro. It’s justice.”

Special agents declined Robb’s invitation to look through the evidence on his phone.

“Just hang onto it. Just hang onto it. Let this all blow over,” they said.

“Once this is all blown over, do whatever the hell you want with it.”

Robb spent the next 20 days in jail.

The day after his release, Robb died by suicide. He was 30 years old.

Two months later, public records from the Utah Lieutenant Governor’s Office show Milton made a $15,000 donation to the reelection campaign of Attorney General Sean Reyes.

It was the first time Milton had ever donated to Reyes. The contribution left Robb’s friends and family asking why the Utah Attorney General’s office took over the case. (Full article.)

Other pardons that Trump issued on Friday, were three founders of the BitMEX cryptocurrency exchange, who were convicted on money laundering, and had even plead guilty to the charges!

President Donald Trump has granted pardons to three founders of the BitMEX cryptocurrency exchange, according to a source familiar with the clemency.

The co-founders – Arthur Hayes, Benjamin Delo and Samuel Reed – previously pleaded guilty in 2022 to one count each of violating the Bank Secrecy Act for flouting money laundering rules and failing to police the exchange. Trump signed the pardons Thursday without publicizing the action.

BitMEX was fined $100 million in January for violating the Bank Secrecy Act by willfully failing to establish, implement, and maintain an adequate anti-money laundering and know-your-customer program.

Delo issued a statement Friday saying the Justice Department “wrongfully targeted BitMEX and its co-founders.” Delo also expressed his gratefulness to Trump for the pardon.

“This full and unconditional pardon by President Trump is a vindication of the position we have always held – that BitMEX, my co-founders and I should never have been charged with a criminal offense through an obscure, antiquated law,” Delo said.

“As the most successful crypto exchange of its kind, we were wrongfully made to serve as an example, sacrificed for political reasons and used to send inconsistent regulatory signals.”

Federal prosecutors had said as cryptocurrencies proliferate, companies engaged in the virtual economy become critical gatekeepers to ensure markets are fair, efficient and secure. Then-U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said the founders of Bitcoin Mercantile Exchange, nicknamed BitMEX, failed to implement even basic anti-money laundering policies.

“They allowed BitMEX to operate as a platform in the shadows of the financial markets,” Williams said.

BitMEX is an online cryptocurrency derivatives exchange that served thousands of U.S. customers, according to court records. From at least September 2015 through the indictment of the founders in September 2020, the company “was in effect a money laundering platform,” according to court records.

The company’s website advertised that “no real name or other advanced verification is required on BitMEX,” according to court records. Reed wrote an email in August 2015 that BitMEX’s advantages included “the freedom to create an account without onerous KYC requirements,” referring to the federal requirements to “know your customer.”

Reed was notified in May 2018 of allegations that BitMEX was being used to launder the proceeds of a cryptocurrency hack, prosecutors said in court records. But neither Reed nor the company filed a suspicious activity report with the Treasury Department.

Hayes of Miami and Delo of the United Kingdom and Hong Kong each pleaded guilty in February 2022 to one count of violating the Bank Secrecy Act. Each agreed to pay a $10 million fine. Reed pleaded guilty in March 2022 to the same crime and agreed to the same penalty. (Source.)

I wonder if Trump will pardon Sam Bankman-Fried of FTX next? He is still in prison, and much of the money he laundered through FTX went through rich and powerful people in Ukraine.

I am sure that the pardon of Nikola Motors founder Trevor Milton will now set a precedence under Trump for Big Tech convicted criminals.

Milton faked his “EV” trucks for almost 10 years. “Nikola”, of course, is the first name of the historical person, Nikola Tesla.

Another EV company is based on his last name, Tesla Motors, where Elon Musk is the CEO. Musk has been faking the capabilities of his Tesla vehicles for much longer, and has been promising fully autonomous self-driving vehicles that can be rented out as robotaxis for almost 15 years now.

His latest techno-prophecy now is that these will be ready by June this year.

However, a few weeks ago it was announced that Tesla has now “pivoted to human-operated ride-hailing in California“, because his promised robotaxis are still not ready.

Tesla’s Ride-Hailing Twist: Human Drivers Step In as Robotaxis Miss Deadline

Tesla pivots to human-operated ride-hailing in California, abandoning Musk’s robotaxi timeline as Full Self-Driving tech lags behind safety targets.

Tesla has applied for a transportation charter-party carrier permit in California to launch a ride-hailing service with human drivers, a move that contradicts previous promises of unsupervised self-driving technology. The application signals a shift toward a controlled fleet model amid ongoing debates over Tesla’s advanced automation goals. Officials remain cautious.

Even though the company’s planned robotaxi won’t be operating its ride-hailing service in California, Tesla has nonetheless applied for the necessary permits to do so.

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, indicated last year that “unsupervised self-driving in Texas and California in Q2 2025” would be the company’s debut.

We had a hunch, though, that Waymo’s long-running practice of using an internal fleet with teleoperation support in a geo-fenced area for ride-hailing services—rather than Tesla’s “unsupervised self-driving” in customer vehicles—would be the case.

It was indeed planned for Austin in June, as Musk announced last month. Electrek’s words are that Tesla is “shifting the goal post” here. (Source.)

With the pardon of Nikola Motors founder Trevor Milton for committing fraud over false claims made to investors, I am sure the CEO of Tesla Motors, Elon Musk, is not too worried about all the false claims he has made to investors over the past several years.

The REAL Dangers of Big Tech and AI

I have been publishing for years now how these technologists continually lie to the public, and that much of what they promise for the future is simply science fiction. As more and more investors find out that they are victims of fraud, like what Trevor Milton did and what Elon Musk is still doing, this will become more obvious, especially after the AI bubble pops and the economy collapses.

Earlier this week, Bill Gates appeared on NBC’s “The Tonight Show,” with comedian Jimmy Fallon. He boldly predicted that in 10 years AI will be so advanced that it will replace doctors and teachers, and that humans won’t be needed for most things.

I realize that most in the Alternative Media don’t have the technology background that I have, but it is rather amazing how people who have been criticizing Bill Gates for years for his lies regarding vaccines and public health matters, now all of a sudden believe that he is telling the truth about technology and AI.

He is not.

What he is doing with techno prophecies like this is creating FEAR. These people WANT YOU to fear the technology, and AI.

Because then they can come up with ways to “protect you” from these mythical dangers of AI.

And this is where the REAL danger lies with AI and the technology.

I don’t think that it was a coincidence that at about the same time that Bill Gates made these bold techno prophecies earlier this week, that Microsoft announced that they were moving people away from using passwords on their Microsoft accounts, and having them instead use “passkeys” which are dependent on biometrics, such as face scans or palm scans, because these are more “secure” and will “protect” people from “sophisticated AI threats.”

This change will affect over 1 billion Windows users.

Microsoft Warns 1 Billion Windows Users—Do Not Use Password

All change for Microsoft. The company has suddenly confirmed a major update “for over 1 billion end users,” as the deletion of passwords for all users becomes real.

Your Microsoft password, it warns, “could be easily forgotten or guessed by an attacker,” and it’s now time “to completely remove the password from your account.”

“The password era is ending,” Microsoft warned in December.

“Bad actors know it, which is why they’re desperately accelerating password-related attacks while they still can.” With “7,000 attacks on passwords [blocked] per second… almost double from a year ago,” the company is on a mission to “convince a billion users to love passkeys.”

A passkey replaces password and two-factor authentication (2FA) codes with account authentication linked to your hardware devices or devices and secured by the same security that unlocks that device, most likely your fingerprint or your face.

This latest update is the next stage of that shift from passwords to passkeys.

“By the end of April, most Microsoft account users will see updated sign in and sign-up user experience for web and mobile apps.”

This has enabled the company “to rethink the default experiences for sign in, putting even greater emphasis on usability and security — our new UX is optimized for a passwordless and passkey-first experience.”

Microsoft has been very clear as to why adding passkeys is not good enough if passwords remain on the account.

“Even if we get our more than one billion users to enroll and use passkeys, if a user has both a passkey and a password, and both grant access to an account, the account is still at risk for phishing.”

That’s why password deletion is the goal, and it’s becoming more critical with new AI-fueled attacks and successful 2FA compromises making weekly headlines.

“Our ultimate goal is to remove passwords completely and have accounts that only support phishing-resistant credentials,” Microsoft says.

“Millions of users have deleted their passwords.”

Source.

Now, to be accurate, there is some truth here. Passkeys, at least in theory, will be more secure to protect one from “hackers.”

But your passkey, which will also include biometric data, such as face scans or palm scans, that are unique to YOU, must be stored somewhere and be accessible to work like this.

However, ANYTHING on the Internet today can be hacked. The technologists who work for companies like Microsoft to develop this technology, can just as easily take that knowledge to another source and teach them how to hack into it.

What these passkeys will really do, is allow Microsoft to have more control over your data, and therefore more control over YOU.

What these technologists want is access to ALL of your personal data, and knowing EVERYTHING you do, and EVERYWHERE you go.

Using passkeys with your unique biometric data is a step in this direction. Changing the currency we use to digital currency, so they can track EVERY TRANSACTION you make, and who you make it with, when, and why, is all part of the plan.

So instead of worrying about what the false techno prophets are predicting about what the technology is going to do in the future, start concentrating on what it is doing right now.

Because their goal is 100% to put you in a digital prison.

And if, for example, you refuse to support Israel and their acts of genocide, well you might just wake up one day and find out you no longer have access to funds in your bank account, because your “passkey” won’t work anymore.

This is the real danger of AI and Big Tech!

But the solution is quite simple, although few will do it.

JUST DON’T USE THEIR PRODUCTS!

Learn now how to break your addiction to technology, and learn how wonderful life can be when you don’t carry a cell phone with you everywhere you go, for example.

Drive older vehicles that are NOT linked into the Internet, so you can move about freely without being constantly tracked.

Learn how to use maps, like we used to do in the “old days”, so that you do not need GPS to get around, which also logs and stores your driving history.

I am a former Microsoft Trainer and former Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer, and used to earn my living by working for Microsoft back in the late 1990s leading up to Y2K.

I grew up with this technology, and I am the same age (or older than some, like Musk and Zuckerberg) as most of the technologists now trying to turn society in this direction.

I have lived most of my adult life WITHOUT a cell phone, before cell phones became so popular. My generation didn’t have any of these things as children. When I was an undergraduate and then graduate student in the 1980s, we had to literally type all of our term papers, thesis, and homework, etc. – by HAND. No PCs, no printer, etc.

We don’t need all of this technology, and it is soon going to come crashing down as it is unsustainable.

But so many in the younger generations don’t know this kind of lifestyle. So many have become so addicted to the technology, that they cannot imagine life without it.

So start now by learning how to break your technology addictions. Spend more time outdoors in nature. Go sit in the middle of a forest somewhere and take a “tree bath.”

And then listen to your HEART, without the distractions of technology. Tune into the Human Superior Intelligence (HSI) Network, which can shield you from the Satanic communication systems powered by electricity, as this network is powered by blood that courses through your veins and reaches every part of your body, and puts you in tune with your Creator.

There is not a single word in the entire Bible that is translated into English as “brain.” But there are nearly a thousand occurrences in the English translations of the Bible translated as “heart”, and the Greek word in the New Testament is kardia.
