Korean military expert calls pursuit of nuclear submarine ‘vanity of a nation drunk on delusion of becoming world power’

Military expert Kim Jong-dae strongly criticized the move, calling it a step backward into platforms of the past and only adding to Korea’s reliance on the US

ICE is staging in Parking Lot 13 at Dodger stadium, which is co-managed by former LA Dodgers owner Frank McCourt and current owners Guggenheim management/Mark Walter.

I guess since they won the World Series, they can now just help ICE kidnap at random.

Internal DHS memo shows Trump plans to keep paying ICE agents and Border Patrol officers throughout the shutdown, while other feds go without pay.

Even the DHS administrative staff processing the paychecks won't get theirs, employee tells me.

It's worth reading the whole rule, especially for regular protesters, but here's part of it.

Screenshot:

All persons are prohibited from engaging in the following conduct, on Federal property or in areas outside Federal property, that affects, threatens, or endangers Federal property or persons on the Federal property
(a) Disorderly conduct, which includes, but is not limited to, assaulting, fighting, harassing, intimidating, threatening or other violent behavior, lewd acts, or the inappropriate disposal of feces, urine, and other bodily fluids.
(b) Wearing a mask, hood, disguise, or device that conceals the identity of the wearer when attempting to avoid detection or identification while violating any Federal, state, or local law, ordinance, or regulation.
(c) Creating a loud or unusual noise, noxious odor, or other nuisance.

Looking at the Federal Register this morning, DHS is moving up the effective date on a June rule that expanded its authority to charge people for certain criminal conduct around federal buildings. It was originally set to go into effect on January 1. It will now go into effect TOMORROW.

I. Background
On June 9, 2025, DHS published a final rule for the protection of federal property (90 FR 24217) (June 2025 rule). That rule implements regulations to protect property and prescribe reasonable penalties for misconduct. Specifically, the June 2025 rule makes the following changes:
• Codifies the full scope of DHS’s statutory authority to protect all federal buildings that fall within the jurisdiction of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), rather than only GSA properties;
• Permits the charging of criminal activity occurring off federal property in accordance with 40 U.S.C. 1315 authority;
• Modifies the list of prohibited conduct to include, among other things, impersonation of security personnel, trespassing into closed areas, the wearing of masks when committing crimes, and tampering with computer systems;
• Updates definitions to account for evolving technologies and emerging threats such as unmanned aircraft and new tobacco products; and
• Clarifies and specifies in more detail the definition of “disorderly conduct.”

DHS set the effective date for the June 2025 rule at January 1, 2026. DHS included that effective date in the regulatory text. See 90 FR 24217, 24218 (Setting forth effective date in 6 CFR 139.5(e)). As DHS explained in the June 2025 rule, the time was necessary to make preparations such as training officers and publishing new signage.

II. Discussion

This final rule moves up the effective date of the June 2025 rule and then amends 6 CFR part 139 to reflect the new effective date. The June 2025 rule set the effective date at January 1, 2026. This final rule amends that effective date to Nov. 5, 2025. Thus, through this final rule, the effective date for the regulations under part 139 is Nov. 5, 2025. Finally, DHS, through this final rule, is also changing 6 CFR 139.5(e)—which originally marked January 1, 2026 as the effective date for the regulations published under part 139 of chapter 1 of title 6 of the Code of Federal Regulations—to now reflect the updated effective date as set forth by this final rule.

“Experts don’t yet know what level of blast can damage the tissue, or whether blasts that are safe in limited numbers can cause harm with repeated exposure.

With so much unknown, many firearms experts and neurologists say the safest course of action is to limit exposure as much as possible.”

“The data showed that some large-caliber civilian rifles delivered a blast wave that exceeds what the military says is safe for the brain, and firing smaller-caliber guns repeatedly could quickly add up… indoor shooting ranges designed to make shooting safe inadvertently make blast exposure worse”

How Gun Blasts From Indoor Shooting May Cause Brain Injuries

The Times tested the blast waves of several popular civilian guns at an indoor range and found that repeated firing could add up to potentially harmful exposure.

COLLINS: But the argument from Republicans is that Biden used an autopen for pardons and didn't know who he was pardoning. Trump is openly saying he did not know who he was pardoning.

MARKWAYNE MULLIN: He said it was recommended to him. He gets a lot of recommendations. He pardons a lot of people.

It’s hardly the worst injustice in the world right now, but as a Jewish person who works on a campus, it makes it hard to speak up about genuine antisemitism when I know it would immediately be conscripted in the service of an anti-higher education agenda which I deplore. Better to stay silent.

Following the documented rape of a Palestinian prisoner in Sde Teyman, the military prosecutor ordered the arrest of the soldiers involved.
There was govt-supported riots trying to prevent their arrest. In response, she leaked the video evidence.
Now she has been removed by the Israeli govt.
