Target caved. Amazon cashed out. Home Depot opened their parking lots to ICE. Nah. My wallet isn’t part of that story. This weekend, my dollars go to the makers, bakers, creatives, and corner shops keeping our communities alive. Drop your favorites so we can boost them. #WeAintBuyingIt

This is totally unfair. Witkoff and Kushner had extensive help from the Russian foreign ministry, and they are trying to hog all the credit. SMH.

One man -- Marco Rubio -- serves this country as both National Security Adviser and Secretary of State.

And he was nowhere near the drafting of that Ukraine 'peace plan,' which was instead devised by the president's real-estate buddy and his son-in-law.

www.wsj.com/world/russia...
A majority of the plan’s provisions were written by Witkoff and Kushner before they consulted Russian and Ukrainian representatives, a person familiar with its drafting said. Secretary of State Marco Rubio was handed a copy of the plan at the White House during Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s Nov. 18 visit to Washington, a person familiar with the situation said. Axios reported the draft’s existence that evening. Rubio was aware of the Witkoff-Kushner initiative but didn’t know the full scope of what they had drafted before then, officials said.

Of all the people to attack, a sitting US Senator, husband of a congresswoman who survived being shot in the head, a former Naval aviator who flew 39 combat missions and a freaking actual honest to god astronaut who’s been to space four times!
These are not bright guys.
Mark Kelly’s official NASA portrait showing him posing in his flight suit in front of a flag Mark Kelly on the international space station wearing a full on gorilla suit that he smuggled into space to freak out his fellow astronauts. Spoiler: he did. You should watch the video if you have not.

Texas has become a major data center hub, and these projects could increase the risk of blackouts in the winter when the Texas grid is already strained.
Texas data center expansion raises blackout risk during extreme winter weather
Texas' supply and demand balance can become tight during winter and potentially fall into deficit as data center demand grows.

This is all so ludicrously improper and meritless on so many levels, I'd bet the likelier result is nothing more comes of it beyond this purely performative bluster, because Hegseth has no idea what he's doing and they'd struggle to find literally anybody in uniform willing to move forward with it.

This is likely unlawful command influence
@PeteHegseth on X: The video made by the “Seditious Six” was despicable, reckless, and false. Encouraging our warriors to ignore the orders of their Commanders undermines every aspect of “good order and discipline.” Their foolish screed sows doubt and confusion — which only puts our warriors in danger. Five of the six individuals in that video do not fall under @DeptofWar jurisdiction (one is CIA and four are former military but not “retired”, so they are no longer subject to UCMJ). However, Mark Kelly (retired Navy Commander) is still subject to UCMJ—and he knows that. As was announced, the Department is reviewing his statements and actions, which were addressed directly to all troops while explicitly using his rank and service affiliation—lending the appearance of authority to his words. Kelly’s conduct brings discredit upon the armed forces and will be addressed appropriately. 24 Nov 25

Sen. Mark Kelly has released a statement.

"If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won't work. I've given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies..."
Today, Arizona Senator Mark Kelly released the following statement: "When / was 22 years old, I commissioned as an Ensign in the United States Navy and swore an oath to the Constitution. / upheld that oath through flight school, multiple deployments on the USS Midway, 39 combat missions in Operation Desert Storm, test pilot school, four space shuttle flights at NASA, and every day since / retired - which I did after my wife Gabby was shot in the head while serving her constituents. "In combat, I had a missile blow up next to my jet and flew through anti-aircraft fire to drop bombs on enemy targets. At NASA, I launched on a rocket, commanded the space shuttle, and was part of the recovery mission that brought home the bodies of my astronaut classmates who died on Columbia. I did all of this in service to this country that I love and has given me so much. "Secretary Hegseth's tweet is the first I heard of this. I also saw the President's posts saying I should be arrested, hanged, and put to death. "If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won't work. I've given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies who care more about their own power than protecting the Constitution."

Apparently, Little Marco Rubio only has a problem with tyrannical dictators if they are in the country his family is from. Otherwise, he's more than happy to help them. What a shallow, self-centered view of the world.

Two years ago, $3.3 billion was pledged for Texas to improve broadband access through a bipartisan infrastructure deal signed by President Joe Biden.

But a year later, Texas submitted a new plan and was awarded just shy of $1.3 billion from the Trump administration.
Texas is getting less for broadband expansion than expected
Rural leaders who have worked years to improve broadband access said they were disappointed by the sharp decrease in federal dollars.
