Democratic leadership didn’t want to stick their necks out for him. The GOP didn’t want him even referred to as a “Maryland man.” Sen. Chris Van Hollen, his congressional representative fought for him. And we should never forget any of this. apnews.com/article/abre...

Thankfully, the Polish doctor who was arrested for providing a medically necessary later abortion has had her criminal investigation dropped. Prosecutors deemed that she did not violate Poland’s strict abortion laws. An anti-choice fanatic who attacked her is facing criminal charges for assault.

Every last ICE/J6er Agent needs to be charged, convicted then deported. They do not belong in America, they're the threat. I'm glad he spoke out. Nobody deserves that except the entire cabinet & they're lying prop spoxes.

Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery.
Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff.
Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him.

NEW: A Republican lawyer involved in the DOJ’s effort to seize state voter data previously supported a GOP lawsuit to ban Georgia from using Dominion voting machines. This is the latest instance of the DOJ hiring a lawyer for its voting section who promoted false conspiracy theories.

NEW: The DOJ said it’s readying to sue GOP-led state Georgia after it told the department to “pound sand” for requesting unredacted access to its state voter records. The development underscores growing nationwide alarm over the DOJ’s national effort to access voters’ private data.

When I found out that someone hijacked the tic tac account for @parkroseperma.bsky.social , I started to wonder how normal people learn to increase their security posture.

It seems like we should have an #infosec guide for beginners when they make the transition from consumers to creators.

Again, this brings me back to the best East Asia brief I ever got. "This region runs on WW2-era grudges, mostly because everyone lives to be 100 and they never forget anything. People will still be alive and rehashing things decades after their US peers have all died of heart disease."
If you know about Korea, you know that people will tell this story for generations.

Given the scale, tech savvy, cultural sway, strategic importance, and national pride of ROK, this might be *the* most lastingly damaging, idiotic move team MAGA has made.

Blessed by SecState Marco.
