Trump Cybersecurity Policy Is Indistinguishable From A Foreign Attack
Last year almost a dozen major U.S. ISPs were the victim of a massive, historic intrusion by Chinese hackers who managed to spy on public U.S. officials for more than a year. The “Salt Typhoon” hack was so severe, the intruders spent much of the last year rooting around the ISP networks even after discovery. AT&T and Verizon, two of the compromised companies, apparently…

It provides very little relief for Air Traffic Control, TSA, ICE, CBP, but let's try grounding all billionaire and private jets as the first step, then shutdown 10% of Airline Flight from 40 Airports.

Somehow, I think that might get some action going.

People are realizing there’s more than borders but it’s long after the invaders are in place. And they still aren’t aware of what’s going on with AI And their culture.
If that is true about busses, imagine what will happen with Tesla's robot army. Technological independence of Europe is even more important than its energy independence.

Trump hosted a "the Great Gatsby" themed Halloween party at Mar-A-Lardo, with the actual tagline "A little party never killed anyone," while Repubs keep Congress closed and SNAP funding halted.

Might I suggest ‘Animal Farm’ because some billionaires are more equal than others for NYE Theme?

A 14-word replacement for most op-eds, substacks, etc about this moment.

The GOP could stop ALL of this, right now—if a handful of Sens or Reps could step outside the cult.

It would take four in the Senate, four (maybe five) in the House, to change history.

Until then, they're all to blame.

This company tore down the White House.

While the government was closed. How was this critical work when so many are furloughed and not being paid? Who approved the permits? Did Congress have any say (not that the current Republicans care)? Or just out to keep the Epstein files locked up?

I propose we start letting everyone else know we don’t consent by making noise every night at 6 PM. Honk your horn, bang on a pot.

Then vote whenever you can. Get everyone you know to vote.

Do not obey in advance.

Trump commutes Santos lessons learned:

- Trump cares more about someone guilty of fraud than opening the government, people's healthcare, the list is endless
- States need to prosecute even if the feds prosecute
- Presidential pardon and clemency powers need to be curbed
- Stop voting for grifters

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Trump threatens not to provide back pay for furloughed and those federal workers currently forced to work without pay (which includes the military).

Who would have thought that would happen after the lofty ethical standards and business record of Trump enterprises in declaring bankruptcy?

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

The US pressured Turkey’s military to not execute their constitutional role. Now many wish the US military had that role. Not really karma, but failure to imagine that there’s more than one way to organize a society to prevent theistic authoritarianism.

Autism was discovered in 1911.

The modern definition of autism came in 1943.

Tylenol started being used in the 1950’s.

Additionally, Tylenol is a brand, Acetaminophen is the actual drug.

Ipso facto, hocus POTUS, we are caught in a bad timeloop in a simulation. Must be time for reset, err rapture

It's an unfortunate fact of life that I should be used to by now but I'm still amazed by the decisions made by those in charge when they have absolutely no idea how things work in the systems they are supposedly responsible for. And much more often than not, zero accountability afterwards.

The speaker on the left of the screen is deluded if he doesn't think he's getting the involuntary shot shortly after those he wants to lock up. Allying yourself with 'just kill 'em' fascists isn't going to save you. The circle gets smaller and smaller until it's in a bunker committing suicide.
Pardon me, but what the fuck?

Another alternative is he has strong incentives to just lie, such ss his interests in fracking.
It's really quite a thing to have a Secretary of Energy who does not understand, ummm... energy.
