It appears that a QAnon supporter who is a member of a QAnon outlet known as "NewsTreason 17" (whose logo is a Q & name is a reference to Q being the 17th letter of the alphabet) was "admitted" into the White House yesterday & got a White House press briefing room pass.

Rand Paul: "This is an insane policy. It's inconsistent. It's not war. It's not the way we've ever done this. If we can blow up a boat in the ocean, what about when they get to Miami & put it in a truck? Can you shoot a grenade launcher at the truck? No! We arrest people b/c sometimes we're wrong."

This article is about the ex-husband of former Texas Governor Ann Richards and the father of Cecile Richards. He was a very accomplished lawyer and freedom fighter in Texas and I didn't know really anything about him.
David Richards, In Memorium: "Captivating, funny, profane, contemptuous of establishment figures who busted unions, shut minorities out of power, and claimed ownership of the state’s Legislature and executive mansion, David always left you wanting more."
Remembering David Richards, 1933-2025
“If there’s anything good in Texas—academic freedom, labor, voting rights, education, politics—his litigation facilitated it."

Trump’s national security strategy cedes global leadership, abandons American soft power (despite statements to the contrary), and emboldens enemies and extremist parties in Europe. It makes us all less secure. (And is totally contradicted by his actual policies)

Trump’s National Security Strategy Will Neither Reassure Our Allies Nor Make Us Secure, but it Will Make Our Enemies Happy
The Trump Administration released its National Security Strategy (NSS) last week, in a document that contradicts not only itself, but the policies Trump has pursued for the past 11 months.

This really is grotesque: they went through years-long citizenship processes and are now being denied simply because if the country they are from. It’s formalized bigotry.
