This is total BS. Shooting live ammo over the I-5? On what planet does this even make sense? It would seem the regime has declared war on California. If they were trying to show off their mad war skills, it was about as successful as Hegseth’s skateboard attempt. #WTF2025

The marines wanted to fire live artillary over I-5; Newsom didn't want them to, but they said too bad; that it was safe.

Then, oh, look: a shell detonated prematurely. Good thing Newsom had shut down 17 miles of freeway (used by 80,000 Californians daily).

#CometLemmon will be visible from mid-Oct thru early Nov: best viewing window peaks around 10/21 when it makes its closest approach to Earth. Wait until the sky darkens after sunset, about 30 -40 min, look towards the W-NE (the Big Dipper is a guide). Use binocs or a small telescope to enhance view

Comet Lemmon captured by Demetrius Katevanius. On 9/24/25

Trump's Truth Social account just posted this AI video of him flying a fighter jet that reads "King Trump."

AI Trump is wearing a crown while he dumps shit on protesters. He's such a pathetic little man.

“They say they’re referring to me as a king. I’m not a king,” 47 said in a Fox News interview that aired early Friday, before he departed for a $1 million-per-plate MAGA Inc. fundraiser at his club. then he posts AI pics of himself as a King on his BSSocial, which he’s done before. #funnynotfunny

🚨BREAKING: Protestors show up as JD Vance, Trump, Kristi Noem, and Stephen Miller in prison chains.

I think they were my favorite costumes from the parade. 🤣

Exactly my thought

if Liberty were to rewrite any Dominion code, it would need to be audited for new vulnerabilities introduced by the recoding.

Becky Durango @beckydurango.bsky.social · 3d

A software audit can only identify existing vulnerabilities, but many of these have already been identified by 3rd party computer security experts who examined Dominion code in the past.

An audit of voting software can’t even provide assurance that a voting machine hasn’t been subverted, because the software and machine configurations can be altered after auditing and certification.

It’s always bothered me that a bunch of issues get attached to a bill that is about one subject. It shouldn’t be done that way because it confuses the issues being voted on. perhaps the idea was to save time? But the way it’s been used historically & currently is a huge problem in our system IMHO

“Government funded video” they’ll spend taxpayer money making videos to brainwash us with propaganda but not spend $ to feed those in need or provide $ for medical insurance. absolute misallocation of funds
